July 10, 1876.

The most transparent humbuggery Of
the Hayes letter Of acceptance is its sun
face devotion to the reform Of the civil
service. The hypocrisy that underlies it
all is as plain as the nose on 4 mans face
The writer must think this nation Of
fools, to put confidence in such nonsense
According 10 the Hayes theory, the vast
army of oflice-holders that got together at
Cincinnati, did 50 for the purpose of nom
mating 4 candidate whose FIRST duty, if
elected, would be to turn out the incom-
petent, the useless and the dishonest, and
ill their places with men Of integrity and
capacity. If this were understood to 3D.

would begin to secretly oppose the tlec-
ton of the candidate, and he would be
straightWay slaughtered in the house Of
his protested friends lie cannot afford
to have it understood that he means to
cause q reformation, by sitting out the use
less Office holders for the moment he
does, good bye to support from that
class Of patriots.
Grant tried, or prolessed to try, that
very thing in 1870. In his message OF shat
year he called the attention Of Congress-
then overwhelmingly Of his own party, to
the matter of civil service reform, in these
words
Always iavoring practical reform, respect
1ulIy call Your attention 10 one abuse OF long
standing, which | would like to See remcIied
by this Congress. 1t Is 4 reform in the civil
service OF the country. | would have it 60 be-
You'd the mere liking of the tenure of CLERKS and
employees, who do not require 1.-THE advice and
consent of the Senate to make their appoint-
ments complete. l would have it govern not
the tenure. but the manner Of making all ar-
polntmcntS. There is 10 duty which much
embarrasses the Executive and heads Of De-
partments as that OF appointments. nor is there
any such arduous and th;ulkiess labor imposed
upon our Senators and Representatives rs that
OF findlng places for constituents. The present
system does not secure the best men, and often
not even fit men for public places.
This is quite as plain as the recent de
claration Of Hayes, but how much has it
amounted to? There has not been one
step taken in the interest of such reform,
not one incompetent civil servant removed
in pursuance Of reform. A few have been
punished-but that was done in spite of
executive interference in their favor, lath-
CT than by any Presidential aid to retorma-
ton. As we said ut the outset the scheme
is transparent humbug. Wait and see
if it don't prove 50.

and Australian children, who have often
visited us in side-show capacity, are
made known to the public by loud
mouthed shouters; dance halls are plenty
in the city, Elm Avenue has three at least !;
all the theatres are playing to fine houses;
the magic of Operti's Garden draws Il
goodly throng; and lastly on the streets,
there surges a crowd, the make up Of
which is more various than the colors Of
Joseph's coat.
In all these outside matters, in extent
of display, and in all magniticence Of et-
fccts, the French will try to distance us in
1873. Though the job looks difficult at
first sight, we can but allow that it is to
be placed in most enterprising hands.

twenty persons were killed and sixty
wounded, will revive the distrust enter
