Mr. Frederick w. Seward yesterday consented to
accept the position offered him by Mr. Evarts, and
return to the Assistant Secreayship of State which
he held under his father eight years ago. In such
willingness of superior men to accept moderate
official station is to be found Of the best signs
for the new Administration.
New-York tribune., 1877-03-14

Mayor Schroeder is OH DonOvan's track. That
modest man is to be compelled to do violence to his
feelings by voting. for himself every day, except
Sundays and holidays, until President of the Board
of Aldermen is elected. The Mayors proclamation
is addressed to the Board, but it is really meant for
Donovan. 1t is loud call for Donovan to get out
of the way and let the universe proceed Mean
while the Electoral Commission promises to end in
smoke and so does the Mayors pronunciamento.
Donovans hide is too tough to be pierced with a
proclamation.

A valuable Washington letter, printed on
another page. shows clearly that President
Hayess Southern policy is far less likely to
excite active opposition to his Administration
than his Civil Service reforms. The Southern
policy, while it may allow one or two Rcpub-
lican points of defense to fall into Democratic
hands. WILL if 1t succeeds, certainly strengthen
the party in States where it is now utterly
powerless and will give it as a whole rank
it has never had in the South before. But
the Civil Service policy threatens to deprive
a great number of politicians of their whole ma
chinery of self-aggrandizement While the
men of ability will welcome it, as a release
from an harassing system, the small Con-
gressman-and there are great many small
Congrcssmcn-will make a long struggle for
his patronage 1t is from these men that hos
tility is to be looked for. But President
Hayes has way of winning his fights, in
politics as well as on the field.
New-York tribune., 1877-03-14

Once when bluff Western statesman was urging
Mr.. Lincoln to make a certain appointment Mr..
Lincoln remarked that the appointment would be
proper one and that he would be pleased to crafty
his friend. but that Senator Blank would probably
desire to name the man. "Pd like to know who is
President, you OF Blank" broke out the Westerner,
and Mr.. Lincoln in his sadly humorous way replied
at once: BLANK is President" 1t looks now as If
the Civil Service was to be organized upon such
basis that the administration of Senator Blank will
be brought to sudden if not uptimely end
Perhaps Nh Hayes has notion of being President
himself.

Returns from the New-lIampshire election
are not yet sufficiently complete to state the
result in each Congressional district but the
details thus far received show that the vote is
running in each party very close upon that at
the Presidential election. The Republicans
have made gain, but it is very slight
In all three Congressional districts, however,
the Republican candidates for Congress are
ahead of their Democratic competitors, and
have made more marked gains than the State
ticket If they should stay ahead, New
Hampshire, now represented in the House by
two Democrats and one Republican, will have
three Republican members, and the Demo-
cratic majority will drop to the pitiful figure
of three.
New-York tribune., 1877-03-14

Mr.. Blaine has a new plan for settling the
difficulties in the unsettled States-the holding
of new election iu each, which would neces-
salily be accepted by the people of those
States and of the country, as well as by the
Administration, as final. Various points are
made against the scheme in Washington, the
chief of them being that this would only pro-
long the uncertainty by postponing for sew
eral months a decision which, there is every
reason to believe. would give both States to
the Democrats. Unless, however, an Immediate
decision by the President is expected, this OBJ
lection can hardly be called conclusive.

Simon Cameron has better luck than Com
modore Vanderbilt. The Pennsylvania Legis-
latsrc will not contest the will And yet this
was only another instance of an unnatural
"desire and inclination TO perpetuate name,
"wealth, and power" in son.

The great Vanderbilt will case has collapsed,
as much to the surprise of the lawyers engaged
for the contestants as of the general puDc.
Both expected a contest to preccde COM
promise, but both find now that there Is to be
no contest. and are by no means sure that
there has been a compromise. The friends or
VIM. II. Vanderbilt assert that there has been
none, and that the contestants determined to
trust to his former promise to treat them
munificenty rather than risk everything on
LITIGATION in which all the chances were against
them. Whether it was conditional or an
unconditional surrender, it is equally evident,
in either case, that there was ne decent ground
for contesting the will.

Some of the foremost authorities Of the country
appear as contributors to the agricultural depart
ment Of The WEEKLY TRIBUNE which is published
this morning. The range Of topics discussed is wide
and timely but no space has been wasted, and every
line of the seven solid columns will more than repay
study. The names Of Profs Arnold, Law. and Cald-
WELL of Messrs. Josiah Hopes and NJ. B. Bateham,
are reasonably good guaranty to the general public
that whatever they have to say will be well said,
while to their thousands of friends who have made
their acquaintance through THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
no such assurance is necessary. Copies of The
WEEKLY may be had at The TRIBUNE counter this
morning in wrappers ready for mailing, and if you
want to make your rural friend or relative really
grateful for what in its cost to you is but trite,
send him copy, or better yet subscribe for him for
year.

The opponents of the new Revision of the
Statutes carried the Senate yesterday. A prop
osition to strike out the appropriation for the
salaries of the Commissioners from the ApprO-
priation bill was adopted in spite of the pro-
tests of one, at least of the best lawyers III
the Senate. The majority was so slight, how
ever, that if the Assembly will stand Its
ground the revision can yet be saved.

II is probable that Russia will score another
diplomatic victory by having her protocol ac-
cepted by the Great Powers, the approval OF
Germany and Austria being apparently assured
England hesitates, but the press is evidently
preparing the public mind for Tie Govern
ments acceptance of the new scheme. The
agreement will of course be important or
otherwise, according to the meaning Russia
sees fit to attach TO it. Gen. Ignaticif's state
ment in Paris is candid and leaves 10 reason
to doubt that the Russian Government is terri
bly, in earnest.

CATARRH.
TWELVE YEARS
OF SUFFERING.

Gentlemen About twelve years ago, while trav.

Troupe as a tenor singer, took a severe cold and
was laid up at Newark, N j. This cold brought on
a sevtIe attack OF Catarrh which | battled with
every lnoyn remedy for four weeks without avail
and was finally obliged to give up most desirable
position and return home unable to sing a note
For three wears afterwards was unable 10 sing at

organs and throat SO sensitive that the slightest
cold would bring on fresh attack, leaving me

suffered the most excruciating paiR in my head
was SO hoarse as to be scarcely able to speak and
couRhed necessarily. l thought was going into
quick consumption and firmly believe tina had
these symptoms continued without relief they
would have rendered me an easy victim. When in
this distressing condition, | commenced the of
santoIds Radical Cure for Catarfh, very reluctant

edies without benefit. The first dose of this won.
derft medlcine gave me the greatest relief. IL is
hardly possible Tor one whose head aches, eve

count of the choking accumulaticns in his throat,
to realize how much relief obtained from the fret

influence, both internal and external, rapidly re-

since have been entirely free from Catarrh for the
first time in twelve years. Respectfully yours,

Mind must be the emansipator of the
farmer. Science. intelligence, machin-
ery,-these must lberate the white bond
man of the soil from his long slavery.
When | look back and see what has been
done for the farmer within my brief men,
ory, am full of hope for the future. The
plow, under the hand of science is become
new instrument. The horse now hoes
the corn, digs the potatoes, mows the
grass, rakes the hay, reaps the wheat, and
threshes and winnows it and every day
adds new machinery to the farmers stock.
to supersede the clumsy implements which
once bound him to his hard and never
ending toll. When farmer begins to use
machinery and to study the processes OF
other men, and to apply his mind to farm
ing so far as he can make it take the place
of muscle, then he illumines his calling
with new light, and lifts himself into
the dignity of man. 1t mind once gets
the upper hand it will serve itself and see
that the body is properly cared for. In
teIigent farming is digniied living. For
a farmer who reads and thinks and studies
and applies. nature will open the store
house of her secrets, and point the way to
a life full of dignity and beauty. and
grateful and improbable leisure.-J. q.

THE GREAT PILL MAN.
WHAT HIS FORTUNE HAS COST HIM.

DIR. j. c. Ayers condition, says the New York
Graphic. breaches its warning sermon to the great
American do or-die business man. Or. Aver
wentinto business for himself before coming of age.
lie left even Benjamin Franklin's sage business
maxims far behind. lie disregarded the precept,
"early to bed and early to RISE" 1t was not
enough for him. He went to bed late and arose
early. lie worked twenty hours out of every
twenty -four. He lived to make money. His de-
votions were unceasing at the altar of business.
He thought business, talked business, brea athed
business, ate business and dreamt business. Bus-
prospered. He moved from small store to
large one, and from that to one larger. He was
one of the representative successful men. lie
was pointed out $ model of what could be ac-
complished by industry, patience and persever-
ance. He lived in the shop and never could get
out of the shop. The great globe, with all its
beauty and grandeur, with all it had to give of
thought, association aud sentiment was to DIR,
Aver but a huge pill and place whereon to make
aud sell pills. "Other worlds than ours if
reached, would for DR.. Aver only have meant
other little aud big planetary pills and homes for
sick Mercurians, Jupiterians and Saturnarians,
who should cure all diseases with Ayers pills.
That was all the universe implied to DIR. Aver.
Mind thus showed, forced, pressed aud crammed
into one idea, at last that idea dominates and
masters the man. Too much pressure for years
of pills and business. No other thought or occu-
way. Now he wanders about the grounds of .
private asylum, and the man of fifteen millions is
overJoyed if he can drive an imaginary bargain
with his keeper for an old window sash and realize
ten cents by it. The guardians of $l5, ,000, 900
receive $4,000 or $4,000 year for taking care
of it, and the man of over-much business begs and
whines in vain for the loan of $40
