no Abolish CIyiI service Reform.

taSSeu.
To Abolish Civil Service Reform.
Mr.. Butler. of Massachusetts, moved TO
suspend the rules and add to the sundry
civil appropriation bill section directing
preference in appointment to office to be
given to soldiers and sailors and their de-
pendent relatives; to diminish and stop the
expense of carrying on examinations bythe
Board of Commissioners or Others travel
ing around the country at the public
charge, and stop the detailing Of clerks of
departments to sit in judgment on their
fellow clerks, exercising thereby the APP
pointing power, which is by the constitu-
ton vested in the heads of the several
executive departments, who ought to be
men of sufficient discretion to appoint their
own clerks, without being tied up by rules
and regulations imposed on them by
boards composed in whole or in part Of
these very clerks themselves.
The rules were suspended and the
amendments made in Order-yeas 155,
nays 81.
Mr.. Z. r. Hoar moved to suspend the
rules and make an order to the sundry civil
appropriations bill, or item, of $4,000 to
a home for the aged, under charge of the
SISTERS Oh the E-OOF
for the completion of their building as a
home for the aged, in the District of Co
lumbia.
Mr.. Garfeld-No one will object to that.
The motion was agreed to without dis
sent.
The House then went into Committee IF
the Whole, Mr.. Dawes in the chair, on the
sundry civil appropriations bill. The de-
ba;e on the civil service reform was resum-
ed, being limited by the Honse to twenty
FIVE minutes.
Mr. Starkweather, of Connecticut, opened
the discussion by an indignant protest
against the criticisms on the President yes
terday.
Mr.. Niblack regarded the effort at civil
service reform as a complete and total fail
ure, because, instead of giving clerks and
other subordinates some sort of tenure of
Office it simply embarrassed the President
in making his appointments.
Mr.. Garfield, Chairman of the Committee
ON appropriations, said that the question
was not whether civil service examination
was wise, just, and the best thing that could
BE- done. 1t was whether the Government
Would Any Longer Try
to do anything to better the civil service.
He hoped the gentleman would make that
issue fair and square, and would meet it.
If no further effort was TO be made, if the
matter was to be abandoned, let it be said
that it was plain and square work. If it
was proposed to return to the old Demo
cratic system and regard the seventy or
eighty thousand offices as so many pawns
to be played with in politics, to be traded
and made merchandise Of let that be openly
said and defended. But il, on the contrary.
il was believed that public offices We're
made for the service of the nation and not
for party perquisites, then the experiment

WHAT Is ALREADY IN s1GEr.

We have certainly elected Dubuclet
Treasurer by majority ranging from
5000 to 5000. The constitutional amend
ments have been adopted by about the
same vote. Twenty-seven Republican
Senators are surely elected. while the
Democrats are unable to show up
more than :orty-ive members OF the
House. These results will appear as plain
as day when those fearful back parishes
are heard from. We are without positive
advices from Natchitoches, Eapides and
Red River-all Republican strongholds-
but we do no: need vote from either to
cleo. Dubuclet. though he is almost GER
tain to receive majority Of from two to
three thousand on Red river. from
Alexandria up to Natchitoches. This vim
dicates the Republican claim to the VIC
to,y in 1872, and sets good example for
Massachusetts,, Ohio and Indiana TO take
pattern from.

with the railroads. Among the most I'M
portart agencies which this powerful
combination could exercise wouio
be to secure to a line Of steamers
between New Orleans and Vera Cruz
postal subvention from Congress.
Each Of these interests should OF
course pro rate and sign through with
the steam line But we may here say
that while We take the steamer "City OF
Mexico" for text, we neither limit Tor
intend to limit ths Efforts and patronage
Of the cities and lines Of transportation 70
any particular line OF company. we
may also here say to the managers OF the
Vera Cruz line that they need not expect
their cargo 70 be made up in New Orleans
with regularity. Our market IN Western
provisions is almost strictly local. Prices
so huctuate tina. i. has often happened
there is no suffcien: margin between
New Orleans and Vera Cruz to insure
shipments. It will be of great importance
to induce the up river cities to make a
| trade with Mexico in provisions, machinery,
implements. sugar. eoaee. dry hides,
! wool and fruits. These cities directing
their nade by way Q, ,heis own lines TO
New Orleans will aid greatly TO I'll! the

We invite the cooperation Of all our
merchants, and especially Of the provision
dealers and grocers Of our Merchants
Exchange. According to the indications
of this article New Orleans may constitute
herself the entrepot Of this tropical trade.
and so renew the foundations Of COM
merce, which neither the strife OF polltl-
clans nor the rivalry Of cities or States
