TROUBLE IN N. C.-THE REsIGNA-
TIoN OF L. M. @. G.JEwELL, AND THE
New p. MIG. TYNER--HEATED
| TERM AND DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY
The Era OF GooD Feelings IN
THE SOUTH NOT YET-WHAT
| NORTHERN CARPET-BAGGER SAYS,
| &c.
The sudden departure of Mr. Jewell
| from the Cabinet, and the immediate
nomination of Judge Tyner to fill his
| place, was not SO much of surprise
among the knowing ones here. Not
withstanding Mr. Jewell was very
atfable, he leaves the Post Office De-
partment with fewer friend samong the
clerks than any Postmaster General
ever preceding him. This fact is ac-
counted for by reason that he treated
the clerks as he had been accustomed
to treat his employees, ''his hands, as
he styled them, in his Connecticut tan
merry. Whatever may be said in COM
merldation of this exp. Nj. G. the
country may be assured, if the Presi-
dent shall feel the necessity of giving
the reason for asking his resignation,
| his reason will be satisfactory. Our
new Postmaster General, Judge Tyner,
is the right man in the right place.
With thorough knowledge of the
internal workings of the Post Office
Department and postal affairs generally
throughout the country, with the in
stincts of perfect gentleman, he cannot
help proving a valuable acquisition TO
the public service.
The Presidents letter to Ex-Secre-
tary Bristow is like q bomb she'll in the
Democratic camp. 1t is thought that so
| much having been said concerning the
whisky ring frauds tc the injury of the
President, that he, the President, will
urge the different members of his cabi-
net to go before the committee and
testify to everything that has been
spoken in cabinet meetings. Sho7ld
this be done doubtless the country
would be shown that the President was
among the foremost in devising the
ways to unearth these whisky frauds,
and not that be, as las been reported,
was anxious to shield the guilty ones.
The nomination yesterday of Judge
Settle of the Supreme Court of North
Ga,olina, for Governor Of that State, is
affecting MIR Vance soreiy. In talking
with a Democrat the other day, Mr.. v.
said that his State was not by any means
=. sure tor Tiiden and Hendricks, but as
far as he was concerned in his Congress
ional district he was all right. Mr.. V.
wants the Democratic National Com
mittee to spend money in lis State.
The heated term is IN full blast and
the thermometer ranging close to 100
degrees in tie shade; SO also, with the
ideas of the Democracy in their so-called
economy; and one would suppose that
the Honee OF Representatives expected
the Diplomatic and Consular represen-
tatives of tile United States to live by
foraging on the different countries to
which they may be severally accredited;
that the Navy, like Jobs asses, conld

flowing sails, and the Army, while fight.
