THE MOFFETT REGISTER CASE.

We have always contended that the clerks Of
courts had no right to give original documents
to reporters Yesterday Judge w. IT. Rogers
delivered 81 very important decision In the Moi
fett Register case, in which the public Is deeply
Interested. Tho clerk OF the court entrusted
the doeumentto to reporter Of one OF our morn
ing contemporaries. with promise to send proof
to the other morning dailies We do not know
what has become Of tho document, or whether
~ paper has IT. In iis possession. bur this We
know. that tho DEMOCRAT had right
to SEQ II and use 1t rs matter
~ public interest. and that 1t could not bs
found in court The reporters must have nc
cess to all public records because the public
has right 10 know what it5 servants are 0OlDg
and how its business is managed. III nm ofigl
na document Ia given out Of court to one par
ficuIar reporter. the majority Of tho papers are
left out and two thirds Of the public suffer.
Under the circumstances, the record not
being atainable, we can only give to our read

WASHINGTON NOTES.
Clean Hill Of Health for Catfie-Gen
Deyens and the sheplsy Succession

WAsIIINGToN. Dec lo-The Treasury De-
partment Is In receipt Of Information that
unless tho cattle shipped from the United
States to Great Britain have government
health certificates when embarked, their
slaughter will be compelled on landing.
Tho Comptroller of the Currency has called
on the national banks for report showing
their condition on the close Of business Fri
day, the sixth instant. The Comptroller has
received applications from two Of the largest
colleges in tho country for copies Of his re-
port for the use of their classes in political
economy.
In reference to the reported retirement of
Con. DevenS from the Cabinet, it. can be stated
on authority that the matter has not been
finally decided. that it is in about the same
condition IT was shortly after the death Of
Judge ,hepley, Of Maine when Gen. Deyens
signified to the President that he would pre-
fer to resign his position in the Cabinet II he
could he appointed to the vacant judgcship.
The President who has always been anxious
to preserve his Cabinet intact to the end Of
his administration has ever since been trying
to reconcile Deveus to his present position.
However it is understood that If Devens in
sists on tho vacant judgeship he can have IT,.
and his friends say he has very recently con
ferred with the President on the subject and
renewed his application made last spring.
The President has not yet decided as to what
he will do In Cabinet circles the opinion is
expressed that the President will, as soon as
he can make up his mind as to Devens' sue
cessor. Withdraw all opposition and appoint
the latter to the place made vacant by the
death of Judge Shcpley
Tho President has recognized Richard
Readea as consul of Great Britain for the
States Of Pennsy ylvania. OHIO, Indiana Michi-
gan, Illinois. Iowa and Wisconsin. to reside in
