never do.

II seems to have been taken for granted by
some hasty statesmen in private life, not to
sneak of statesmen in the Senate, that the
President was bound to settle the Louisiana
problem off hand, by sort of motu prolriO,
before the end OF the week. There has never
been any sufficient reason to suppose that a
decision would be precipitatcd upon the
country. President Hayes has given no ex-
PLANTATION even of his purposes, much less has
he indicated an intention to take any positive
action at the present time; and as he has not
shown failing toward snap judgments
heretofore, we do not see why he should be
suspected of tendency that way just now.
And in point of fact it is not clear that he
will ever be called upon to decide the LOuis-
ana case.
The question of the legality of the Repubi-
can administration in that State has been four
years pending in the United States Senate.
1t was brought up Oh the applications OF
Plnchback and Mari for admission, as it had
been previously on the applications Of Ray
and Mcmillan, and it is now raised again by
the credentials of Kellogg. One of the seats
to which Louisiana is entitled in the Senate
has been vacant ever since 1873; the other
has now fallen vacant, and the State is with
out any representation in the upper branch OF
Congress. This is a scandalous condition of
things which admits of no excuse. Repubi-
cans and Democrats in the Senate have urged
their associates to do their duty and decide
upon the claims Of the contestants, but in
vain. The duty has been deferred, and
Louisiana has remained in chaos. With both
seats vacant it seems to us the time has come
when the duty can be deferred no longer.
The Senate must determine which is the lawful
government of Louisiana when it determines
who are the lawful claimants of these two
empty seats.
We do not imagine that the settlement is
to be an easy one; but delay will not make it
any less perplexiDg. Long ago we warned the
Senate that it was nursing trouble by Sinking
its plain duty, adding to the difficulties of the
problem by creating new complications and

STANDING ROOM FOR YOUNG MEN
The following inquiry comes to us from @

The following inquiry comes to us from q
city clergyman:
TO the Editor Of The Tribune
SIR: How can our young men find empioymentf This
city and other cities full, and know not what to ad
wise young tO do TO make their living Particularly
an interested In young who has been to college,
is willing take hold of any kind Of work, and is witha
of fine personal appearance and yet find no employ
ment which will give him his bread. II he ought to i'm
migrate to the West or South, 1 would gladly pay his
expenses and give him outfit. venture TO ask you
for light on a matter beset, far know, with some
difficulty. l am, Sir, respectfully, X
Ne,o- York. March g, 1877.
Our reply to this letter must needs be gen.
eral, for our correspondent does not tell us
whether his young friend has natural aptitude
for any special calling. Success in life depends
upon other conditions than a fine personal ap-
pearance and a college education, and these
are the only facts which in this instance are
brought to our attention. What may be the
best occupation for one handsome cOlegian
may be the worst for another, and one may
succeed under social conditions and in sec
ton of the country where another would fail;
so much depends upon natural capacity and
the fitness of things. We take it that our cor
respondents friend is a type of q very
large class of educated young men, who
after leaving college are compelled to
earn their living and make their own way in
the world. They have culture, sometimes
deep, oftener superficial; they have had no
special training for business or professional
life; their available capital is their education
IA security on which money-lenders will make
no advances. They are willing to work; but
what shall they dof Where shall they beginf

The new bill to compress the local govern
ment of the City of New-YOrk within reason
able limits contains more robust reform than
any legislative committee has given us for
long time, and far more than we ever ex-
pected to recognize as the product of Mr..
John Morrissey's suggestions 1t provides for
Spring elections-a reform which the pollt-
clans of both parties have been quietly fend-
ing off for years. 1t does not require
the Mayor to submit his nominations to
the Aldermen-a check which works well as
between President and Senate, or Governor
and Senate, but which in practical operation
in this city merely amounts to allowing CO.
terie of mongrel politicians to cmbarrass a
respectable Mayor now and then III making a
good appointment. 1t cOnsOlidates bureaus as
well as departments and reduces the number
of commissioners over each department to a
single head. 1t endeavors to reform even the
Aldermen by lengthening their terms from
one wear to two, so as to give them
larger training and experience. There
is probably too much good in this
bill to get through the Legislature, but we
know of no reason thus far why 1t should not.
The bill contains at least one of the great
features Of the Charter Commissions amend
ments, and these cannot go into effect for
three years, if they should be acted upon by
the Legislature at this sessiOn-an unlikely
contingency. We ought to have as much
change for the better as this measure affords
without being compelled to wait for the slow
process of constitutional amendment; and if
the Ecclcsines and Peter Mitchels will keep
out of the way we can have it. But they
nnNar do.

1RCTIC EXPLORATORY

The unsatisfactory result of Capt Nares's
expedition will probably leave the Smiths
Sound route in the future exclusively to Amtri-
can explorers. There is not at present in Great
Britain a great deal of enthusiasm for Arctic
research and what there is favOrs the Spitz-
bergen and East Greenland routes for the next
attempt. The current of opinion there as here
sets toward the colonizing plan, but it has
several strong opponents who think that the
old method is still the best possible, and moth
ing very definite is proposed for a new Arctic
expedition from Great Britain by anybody.
Capt Virgins is, indeed, preparing for trip
to the Yenisce River to get cargo of graph
ito, and will have to. make a voyage through
the Arctic Ocean, north of Siberia, to reach
the Kara Sea. But this will not lead through
higher latitude than 750 N. at furthest. Two

swarmed about the hundred offices which the
Democratic House of Representatives had to
bestOw and the gathering now, when new
Administration comes in with five hundred
times that number at its command, and de-
clare that there were more ofiice-hunters on
the ground then than now. What would have
become of us if new Administration had
come in pledged, at least, by the hunger of
its supporters, to feed the whole partyi The
narrow territory of the District of Columbia
would have been black with the vultures.
In Paris, the five ambassadors of the Protect
ing Powers are preparing collective note on the
Eastern question, designed to remove the dlf-
fercnces which exist between Turkey and
Russia. They are in this way repeating the
diplomatic device which pTecipitated the
Crimean War. Prior to that conflict the
Powers submitted to the Porte a note contain
ing promises which Russia would have deemed
satisfactory. But encouraged 10y the lukewarm
manner in which Lord Stratford urged the
acceptance Of that engagement, the Porte re-
jectcd it, and the Emperor Nicholas was pro-
voked into declaring war. The earnestness
with which the Sultan strives to convince
Europe that he is carrying out reforms, indl-
Gates that this time the Porte would be less
defiant. Its inability to cCerce Montenegro
into concluding peace makes its feebleness
still more apparent.
Now that the Cabinet situation has solved
itself, it is easy to see that there was no oc-
casion for the undue worry on the subject IN
which some good people seemed disposed to
indulge The committees of the Senate were
| finally constituted and announced yesterday,
| the Presidents nominations were referred, ana
an agreement to report favorably was reached in
| every case but that in which there has been
from the first the least doubt. Certainly if any
| one man has been designated by public senti-
ment for President Hayes's Cabinet, that man
is Mr.. Evarts, and the adjournment of the
| Committee on Foreign Relations without COM
| Ing to any decision upon his nomination can
hardly have any serious meaning. Much as
| some members of that committee may be
| averse to seeing MIR. Evarts at the head OF the
| Cabinet. they viii not venture upon such an
| impoitic step as a report against hlm. Inc
| two nominees who have drawn almost the
whole fire of adverse criticism Mr.. Schurz and
| Mr.. Key, go into the Senate with the same
| favorable reports from committees that their
| colleagues have received, and their confirma-
ton seems inevitable Mr.. Blaine will doubt
less vote against Mr. Key, as he has an un-
doubted right to do, on the ground that he does
not wish to see the control Of great Department
90 into the hands of a Confederate colonel );
and some Senator may also vote against Mr..
Schurz. as he has an undoubted right to do,
because he may not think him especially
qualified for place requiring great executive
| ability. Others will think differently about
both men. President Hayes is to have his
| Cabinet, however. That question may be con-
| sidered settled

Charles G. Fisher, son Of the late unfortunate
United States Attorney for the District OF Do
lumbia, was On the I'D ultimO convicted in the
Criminal Court OF the District on an Indictment
for abstracting papers from the clerks once.
tioa for a new trial was entered, and Fisher
was remanded to Jail pending the notion he
became sick during his confinement, aud exhio-
tied symptoms of insanity. DR.. Nichols, during
the progress of the trial, testified that he be-
leved that Fisher was insane.
After the conviction great efforts were made to
obtain pardon, which were heartily seconded
by many good citizens of the District, who be-
leved that the prisoner had already suffered
enough for his misdeeds. pardon was grantee
by the President last Saturday, the 18th inst,
and carried to Fisher at the jail by his father.
Fisher was Immediately transferred from the
Jail to the Insane Asylum, across the Eastern
Branch.
His life for the past two years has been event
full, but he added most important event last
night by taking French leave of his attendants
and companions in the asylum. Fisher was con-
fined In the hospital ward. About O'Clock last
night 1t was discovered by the attendants that he
had left the ward, and a search was made for
him about the premises, but he could not be
found.
communicated by telegraph with police head
quarters, and notified the officials there that
Fisher had escaped. 1t was thought that he
would take a train departing from the city and

the lookout during the whole of last night but
up to a late hour nothing was learned of the
Whereabouts Of the fugitive.
