Civil Service Reform as Administered

the Investigating Committee that previous
to his appointment as Associate Justice OF

been informed, "dt The mstCmc, Of the Presi-
Dent by Mr.. CowGILL Of the Returning
Board, that he would be appointed,
the President having told CowGILL that he
was under both political and personal obli-

Uniting the One Party and Dividing the
Other.

Tho Neic York Tribune founded by HORACE
GREELEY-says that Mr. POTTER has con-
solidated the Republican party and divided
his own by his investigation into the alleged
electoral frauds.
Very well; II the Republican party can be
consolidated in support Of a Presidential
title based on false returns and election
frauds It Is well TO have that fact under
stood; for unless we wholly misunderstood
the character Of the American people the
party would at once shrink into a pitiful
minority.
And ON the other hand, we fear no division
In the Democratic party which may result
from the denunciatiOn of Mr. HAYEs's un-
lawful and fraudulent title. Good radiance

The citizens Of New York may well be
startled by tho robbery that occurred in
Third Avenue ear on Monday evening.
When we read the stories OF brigandage in

fiction than reality; but here we have rob

pcratively demanded along the routes trav-

Different species OF crime become as it
were epidemic, at different times This
robbery on city street ear having proved
so successful, and being bruited abroad as
such among the criminal classes, we may
expect to see successive attempts to initiate
it-just as the large hauls made by the first

No robbery as yet having taken place on
the elevated railroads, this will serve as an
additional reason for giving them the pref

The danger in the surface cars will be en-
hanced now by the circumstance that the

Two Christian Statesmen.

II is now clear that the Republicans OF
Ohio had good reasons for refusing TO give
STANLEY MATTHEWS even the cheap compli
ment of a denomination for Senator. His
short career in the Senate was enough to
convince them that he was wholly unworthy
Of their trust, and they made that fact plain
by an insulting rejection OF his name whom
II was proposed in the caucus, and when q
nomination had no other value than as
mere testimonial of political and personal
regard.
As member Of the Senate MATTHEWS
has boon the unblushing champion Of the
GoULDand HUNTINGToN combination, and of
the jobs Of Col. Tom ScoTT, for whom he had
been counsel before going to Washington
He antagonl2cd and misrepresented the
THURMAN bill compelling the Pacific roads
to establish sinking fund for the payment
Df their indebtedness to the Government
andonrercd n substitute concocted by GOULD
which he was glad to Withdraw from the re-
sentiment that it excited on both sides. His
business a. Il Senator has been TO advocate
the interest of the great corporations and
Rings, with zeal and audacity that might
be expected from retained attorney.
The peculiar anxiety which HAYES mani
tested for STANLEY MATTHEWS s election 10
the Senate in the spring Of 1877 Is fully ex-
planned by the recent revelations, and by
the correspondence Of MATTHEWS with AN
DEksoN. MATTHEWS had been HAYEss per-
sonal agent in Louisiana among the f" visit
ing statesmen lie had been his counsel
before the Electoral Commission, and he
was the chief bargaincr through whose
pledges the count was completed He was
also the confidential channel Of communlca-
tlon with the occupant Of the White House
These considerations and others equally
damaging induced HAYES TO request GAR
FIELD to retire from the Senatorial contest
in order that he might have MATTHEWS at
hand TO respond TO the various calls arising
out OF the corruption in Louisiana and the
arrangement by which the Fraud was finally
consummated. They stood closely together
and thcre were no secrets between them.
Whatever MATTHEWS knew OF the forgcrles
iabrications, and frauds in Louisiana,
HAYES knew; and the appointment to office
OF the rascals who We're stepped IN that in
iquity MS reward for the crimes they had
committed, furnishes conclusive proof, when

; Pruning the Grape.

The time to prune the grape
is in the autumn, after the vine
has gone to rest. Ifthis be not
done, if should be attended to
early enough in the winter as
The cut surface will not bleed
IN the spring. If this has been
neglected, the vine should not
be cut until it has made con-
siderable new growth. Then
there will be no bleeding, and
Judicious trimming will be ben
ehcial. This trimming, howev-
er, should not be severe, since
ifso it win give a. serious check
to the integrity of that plant,
and often cause the fruit to
drop. or else become imperfect.
Superfluous wood may be taken
out, but the new growth had
better be left to the extent Of
three leaves, at least, beyond
the last bunch of fruit. When
the vine is likely to fruit too
heavily, the surplus must be
taken out There must be suh-
Gent foliage left TO thoroughly
elaborate the sap of the plant,
and the leaves must be in due
proportion 10 the weight of the
fruit. In all this, however, the
grower must exercise his own
judgement. The novice, by a
little study upon the principles
Divine growing, and attention to
the requirements of special va
rieties, will soon be able to ar
range a system of pruning and
cultivating that will meet the re-
quirements of the varieties he
eultivates.-HaDie Farmer.
