The Democrats of the Seventh Assembly
District have done well In nominating Mr. q.
c. A. ii. BARTLETT as their candidate for mem
Der OF the Assembly. Mr.. BARTLETT ia a young
lawyer OF talent integrity, solid professional

in behalf OF good and honest government. It

earnestly recommend him to tho support Of all
citizens, no matter what their previous party
connections. No man who votes for him, will

counts OF Pay Inspector SPALDING, will be

velopments may be expected. 1t Is the popular
impression on the Pacific coast that the officers

ment Of naval affairs generally, and on that coast
especially, though whether those who compose

We learn with sorrow that FREDERICK
HupsoN, formerly managing editor OF the Herald,
with which for many years he was closely iden-
tiaed, died at Concord yesterday In consequence
OF being run over and crushed while driving
across the Middlcsex Central Railroad. He was
1fty.six years OF age, OF distinguished personal
appearance, and endowed with many admirable
and endearng qualities. lie was altogether a
journalist, and never followed any other profess
sion. The Herald, from which he withdrew
eight or nine years ago, was the only important
newspaper with which he was connected and
he developed IN II an extraordinary ability In
the collection and arrangement Of news, marked
talent for popular style OF writing, entire 10y
atty toward his chief and gentlemanly and
kindly spirit toward all others. For quarter
OF century he occupied conspicuous post
tion here, with the rage Of public conflict CON
tinualiy going on around him, and yet all who
knew him were his friends, and even those
whom circumstances threw into an attitude OF
controversy felt esteem and respect for their
antagonist. When he retired from active ser
vice he left none more skful or more widely
esteemed than himself; and, though we have
journalists more celebrated and more powerful,
we could not lose one who would be more sin
cerely regretted.

The Inference, however, Of which the

ploant for the place, is wholly Incorrect

that he has made no effort to secure it,
preferriug to retain his present position as
the Admiralty Judge of the greatest sea-

counts, the office of United states District
Judge in this district is more congenial to
his personal and professional tastes, and it

ton of Judge ALEXANDER s. JOHNSON,

Last winter Congress passed ridiculous
law for the reorganization Of the Treasury De
partment. providing that after January the APP
pointments shall be arranged "a To be equally
distribu ted betW cen the several States, Terrific
rics. and the District Of Columbia, according TO
population. This IL putting into practice under
the sanction OF law the pernicious theory that
public officers should be appointed, not for their
ability or fitness to perform the duties required
OF them, but as reward for partisan services
performed either by themselves or their influen-
tia friends; that the places Of trust which are
as punder for distribution among Its followers.
For years the Federal patronage has been dis
tributed on this principle, and no more effective
way could possibly be devised for dcmoralizing
and degrading the civil service; but formal
legislation to command n strlcter enforcement
Of the evil practice IL something entirely new.
OF course the object Of the law Is to give Con-
gressmen In both Houses, who think they have
not received sufficient consideration from the
appointing powers, opportunities for disch rging
cations 10 their strikers for political work in
Caucuses ana at the polls and II would be din
cult to imagine a more unworthy reason for the
measure. No doubt many removals might be
made in the Treasury Department to the great
benefit OF the public service; but In this case
those that will be made are most likely to be Of
precisely the opposite character.
