Federal Osrice Holders in Tcxas.

Secretary Brstow and Postn aster Cen
eral Jewell have had a consultation with
the president concerning the Federal officers
in Texas, and read to him reports which are
considered confidential in relation to them
made by special agents. The only post
masters to be changed are those at Calves
ton and Houston.
The president has already, through the
postmaster general, requested them to re-
sign, but they have as yet made no re-
Spouse. The postmaster general can see no
good reason for making other postoflice
changes in Texas. though the politicians
are urging removals, that vacancies may be
supplied FOR persons whose chief recon-.
mendations is their greater activity in poll
tics. The postmaster general desires TO re-
tain those postmasters against whom no
charges can be sustained of moral and bust
ness unfitness.
Secretary Bristow is convinced that
changes ought to be made among certain
treasury officers in Texas. and this will be
done at an early day, but with circumspec-
ton. Business in some cases has been
loosely transacted, TO the loss of customs
and internal revenue, and hence the neces-
sity for prompt action. Attorney General
Williams also presented matters concerning
affairs in the South, and other members of
the cabinet laid before the president sub
jects requiring his consideration.

The Second District.

The result of next Tuesdays contest in
the second congressional district is regard
ed very differently by different people.
Another correspondent of the Springfield
Republican writes as follows about it: In
less than one week the voters in the second
Vermont congressional district are to de-
eide who shall be their representative to
congress. 1t is already settled in advance
that it is to be either Poland, the present
member, Denison, the boilers candidate.
or Mcl.ane, the democratic nominee, these
three beng the only names mentioned In
connection with the Office. Those people
who have flattcred themselves with the be-
lief that Poland is out of the contest are
doomed to disappointment, as the results
in the next three or four days will show.
Two weeks ago everybody looked upon
Denison's election as foregone conclusion,
but during the past few days things have
assumed different aspect, and the result
may be looked upon as uncertain. Poland's
friends have been working like beavers of
late, though all of their movements have
been very secret, and probably before
the end of this week an appeal to
the voters will be issued, urging all low
ers of "Uncle Luke" to stand firm,
and to cast their votes for the only repre-
sentative man in the district, who was so
inhumanly treated and so numerically
slaughtered at the polls in September.
Dennison's friends will not be caught nap
ping, however, Tor they have suspected
that this would finally be the result, and
consequently have fortified themselves ac-
cordingly. The democrats are doing visi-
bly, nothing for their candidate, McLane,
although they could cast large vote, and

Congressman Aver,

The Cincinnati Commercial thinks that il
Chcrry Pecioral Aver. the patent medicine
man, who is running for congress in Massa-
chuscts on the republican ticket, succeeds
in his desires he will have n hard term of ii
in the house. This cherry PICTORIAL which
has brought him fame, fortune and ilattery
of the rural press, would stand in the way
of his enjoying great congressional career.
1t would cause him to be smiled ut bv the
house or stared at by the galleries. even
when dealing with the gravest questions in
the solemncst way 1t would destroy the
effect of his most thrilling speeches. The
name OF it would be hurled at bis head,
perhaps by Ben. Butler or Sunset Cox,
when he was soaring upward in some lofty
flight OF cloqucncc; and, even at such
moment, when struck by such missile, he
would feel like folding the gistening wings
of his oratory and betaking himself to the
unapproachable caves in the mountains of
Hepsidam TO mourn with the whangdoodle.
We do |Ot see that there is any help for
him. lie can never get over the patent
medicine which has made his name familiar
as a household word to all newspaper
readers. The doctor should give up his
congressional ambition, make merry with
his fortune and be generous to the poor

The Financial Position.

The New York Commercial of Saturday
evening says that there is a certain degree
of uneasiness in monetary circles, partly
arising from distrust, partly from discon-
tent. Some people wonder what's the
matter. Others grumbe because when the
banks have so much money business is no
better, and then there is another class in
whose ignorance there are constantly aris-
ing phantoms of something dreadful to
happen.
Talking with an old bank president to-
day, who has nothing to do but look
well to his securities and hear the
talk of the street, he remarked to this eff
feet: "YOu may write whole columns about
it, but when you are through the story is
told in a single word, that there is n
shrinkage of values going on, and that
there must be lower prices. People must
reduce their expenses, practice economy,
and adjust themselves to changed condi-
ton of things"
The troubles among business firms are
confined altogether TO those who got caught
in the panic, and have been carrying TOO
much merchandise or real estate, or some
thing else, which was not convertible to
meet the exigencies of the times. If the
crippled firms are not of this class, then
they are Spectators like those recently cor
nered in grain. The former, as obligations
matured, found they could not meet them,
and by extending paper or some other plan
of accommodation, have carried themselves
along, hoping to take advantage of some
favorable turn, which is too long delayed.

THE TEXAS OFFICIALS.

We publish elsewhere an account of an
interview between Secretary Bristow and
Postmaster-G General Jewell relative to fed
eral Office holders in Texas. This is an in
dication of another forward movement for
the correction of abuses, and the expulsion
from the service Of the government of inn
proper officers and the stoppage of leaks in
the treasury. The President is lending his
cordial and earnest aid to his cabinet of.
ficers in their efforts, showing that be has
been the victim of gross deception. Every
intelligent individual having knowledge of
public affairs has observed that for the last
four years the public offices at the south
have been largely filled with persons who
have brought the republican party into bad
odor and weakened its hold upon the peo-
pie. When charges were made against
them, men of the same class we've sent
south to investigate, who brought back
such reports as suited their purposes
Things have taken a sudden turn since Sec
rotary Brstow and Postmaster General
Jewell have come into power. We shall
have no more whitewashing reports.
These two cabinet officers, fresh from
the people, have been posting the Presi-
dent and awakened him to the true situa-
ton of affairs. We haye the first evidence
of his determination TO correct the evils OF
which complaint has been made, in the ap-
pointment of new collector and post
master at Galveston, Texas. The position
was rendered to and not sought by these
gentlemen, and it is not known whether
they will accept. The Washington dis.
patches tell us that President Grant has
also expressed his determination 10 remove
all inefficient and improper characters from
office and tender them to.the very best meI
to be found in the ranks Of the republican
party. II is also understood that the views
of the new postmaster general and thu
secretary of the treasury relative to tn,
dictation of members of congress IN thu
matter of appointment of federal officers
in the states and departments, meet will
the hearty concurrence OF the President
Had these measures been adopted two
years ago many disasters would have beer
averted, and New York and Pennsylvani,
would have been free from doubt as 10 th,
results Of the elections next week.

land

Mr. Alexander Murray, provincial geol-
ogst. who has been engaged during the
past summer in completing survey of
comparatively uninhabited and almost I'M
known section of the island of Ncwfound-
land, reports that in the northern part of
the island there is tract of fertile land,
comprising about IA half million acres,
covered with magnificent forest, well
watered by inland lakes and rivers, which
latter are navigable. In his official report
he gives glowing account of its scenery,
its nnc soil, its adaptability to agriculture,
and estimates that it is capable of support
ing 100, 900 settlers. The lumber alone is
worth millions of dollars and Mr.. Murray
recommends that the government take such
action as will open this vast tract TO enter
prising pioneers.

ties which stand in the way of the
effective execution of absolutely prohibit
ory legislation. 1t would place the regula-
ton OF the traffic directly in the hands Of
each community, and would do away with
the present anomalous attempt TO adapt
one law to widely varying conditions and
to communities very differently organized.
This, he said, with the addition of a gen
eral civil damage law, like that in force in
New York and in many of the western
states, rendering the dealers Liable for
damages resulting from their traffic, might
be found to accomplish the desired pur-
pose of regulating the traffic, OF diminish
ing intemperance and OF harmonizing con
flicting views. f
We alnde to this confession of an able
total abstinence man as indicating the
losing faith that candid thinkers in our
state feel in prohibition.

How Eeis Lave.

The eel season is now at hand, the recent
rains having started them in the Susque-
hanna and all the creeks and streams on
their fall journey back to tide water, and
the consequence is that large numbers have
been caught in different parts of the coun-
try within the past few days. The eel
travels up stream in the spring, and returns
down to the salt waters in the fall, always
going in large schools There are great
many peculiarities connected with the eel,
that but few people know of. For instance,
there are some eight or ten kinds of them,
of which several never enter into fresh
water. Some of the varieties are, when
full grown, ten or twelve feet in length,
weighing one hundred pounds. The kind
here, the common fresh and salt water
eel, is usually from twelve to twenty -four
inches in length. Eels, it has been proved,
have both sexes IN one, and spawn some
what after the manner of other fish. Like
the turtle, they can travel out of water for
some distance, from stream to stream, so
that in almost every rivulet, however
small they can be found. The glls, or
breathing organs, are covered up by a most
delicate curtain, which acts like valve
and reservoir for water. thus enabling
the fish to take in quantity of water, so
to speak, to keep its gi.ls moist during the
time it is out Of the stream. 1t has heart
in its tail, the same as is known to exist in
the salmon, with pulsations at about ninety
four to the minute.
