THE NEW SECRETARY OF WAR.-Judge Al
phonso Taft is an Ohio lawyer of considerable
ability of long experience. and of excellent
reputation. He has never held but one office,
and that was when he served for shore time
on the bench of the Superior Court at Cincin-
natl. In 1875 his name was prominently men
toned in connection with the candidacy for the
Governorship of Ohio He went before the
convention with a considerable show of strength
but was beaten by Gen. r. B. Hayes His
name was urged for the reason that 'his nom
ination would mean advancement, enlighten.
ment, liberality." While on the bench he de-
lvered dissenting opinion in q litigation con :
cerning the reading of the Bible in the public
schools Judge Taft's position was, that un.
der the Constitution the reading of any par
ticular version of the Bible IN the schools could
not be allowed. 1t was claimed that Judge
Taft had surrendered to the Catholics, but his
dissenting opinion was subsequently concurred
in by the Supreme Court Of Ohio. Another
point made against Judge Taft was his LIBERAL
ideas of the observance of the Sabbath day.
Judge Taft is of New England birth. but has
been for thirty years resident of Cincinnati.

George ElIOt's Appearance and Manner.

A sight presence, of middle height, as the
height OF woman goes; face somewhat long,
whose every feature tells of intellectual power.
lightened by the perpetual play of changing
expression; voice of most sympathetic com.
pass and richness; manner full of a Grave
sweetness, uniformly gentle and intenselv
womanly, which proclaims the depth of the
interest taken in ordinary and obscure things
and people; conversation which lends itself
as readily to topics trivial as to topics profound,
anu which is full of a humor-as, indeed are
her writlngs-that is redeemed from sarcasm
oy lts eVer'present sympathy; such is a rough
and imperfect sketch of George Eliot as she
may be seen when she is occupied with her
Sunday receptions in her pleasant home near
Regents Park. Far from strong in health. she
feels the effort of authorship so severely, the
interest which she takes in the development
and the DESTINY of the creations of her brain,
who might be better described as the general :
izations from her own personal knowledge and
experience, is SO painfully and absorbingly
oeep, tnat she is unequal to the task of going
very generally or very much into society. So
thoroughly does she think out her books. even
10 the structure of her sentences before she
commences to write them, that, unlike Dickens.
though like Thackeray. her manuscript dis.
plays scarcely an erasure or blot.

Democratic IncaDacity.

Again the Democrats have evinced their
incapacity for government. Having by
chance stumbled upon discovery of the mis-
deeds of Belknap they have since been so
anxious to make party capital out of the dis
| covery that they have suffered the witness
| upon whom the substantiation of the
charges rests, to escape. So busy were they
in mailing to New Hampshire copies of
Marsh's testimony, that they took no care of
the whereabouts of Marsh himself. Indeed
they discharged him from further appear
ance before the committee, and so in effect
gave him hint TO escape to Canada. The
result is that they have no testimony to JUS
tify the impeachment of the ex-Secretary.
They still further increase his chances of
avoidance of punishment for his crime by re-
fusing to appear and give the testimony
before grand jury which will 60 to secure
his indictment for criminal offense. In
view OF the utter incapacity of the Democrats
to manage the case the suggestion of Mr..
Blaine that they should turn it over to the
Republican side of the House is a pertinent
one.
Having let the witness Marsh escape, the
committee are making lame excuses for their
criminal carelessness. The chairman of the
committee attempts to defend himself BY
quoting pretended order of the President
which never had existence except in the vivid
imagination of Hester Clymer. Nor can it
be said that Marsh took his flight because of
common rumor of such an order, for he
started on his pilgrimage to the Canadian
city of refuge three hours before the report
OF the committee was presented TO the House
and nearly as soon as the first intimation of
the exposure reached the ears of the public.
The Democratic chairman of the committee
IS responsible for the absence of Marsh and
the consequent block in the proceedings
against Belknap. 1t is is not to be denied
That darker charge than that of mere care
iessness is freely brought against the Demo-
cratic members OF the committee. They are
openly accused of conniving at the escape of
Marsh because he was in possession of in
formation inculpating a prominent Demo-
cratic leader, George 81. Pendleton, in a
scheme of jobbery and corruption forced
through the War Department by the aid of
the Secretary. This information was care
fully concealed from the Republican members
OF the committee until after Marsh had
taken his flight. Whether these accusations
be true or not the outlook for the committee
is dark one, for their conduct has been
highly discreditable.
