Gen. Schofield's order to the West
Point cadets, complimenting them for
their conduct under calumny and re-
storing them to all the usual cadet
privileges. from which they were
debarred because of an escapade on the
first of January, has given much Of
feuse to the powers at Washington. 1t
was hoped to make political capital out
of the Whitaker outrage, but the in
vestigation into the case and the man.
ner in which the cadets have been sup
ported and encouraged by the officers
at the national academy have prevent
ed this. The administration in its an
ger seeks q victim, and it is understood
that Gen. Schnfteld will be selected,
his order being made the pretext. Tie
report runs that he is to be relieved of
his command and Gen. Hancock plac-
ed in charge of West Point. Gen. Han
cock has been recently called to Wash
ington to consult with the Secretary of
War upon the Whitaker matter. 1t
is likely that this is the only basis for
the report that Schofield is to be reliev-
ed, although it is certain that the ad-
ministration is greatly disple ased with
his management of the Whitaker case
and his confidence in the cadets.

A proposition is being urged. upon
Congress to abolish, many Of the ports
of entry now in existence and establish
In interior cities of the country. In
dianapolis clamors to be made such a
port, and ather inland cities are desir-
Gus of enjoying the facilities which
would be afforded by..such action of the
Government. The argument used is
that the present system, established in
1892. will not do for the present day;
that many of the old ports are useless
and serve only as costly monuments OF
the folly of continuing them; that the
money that might be saved in this way
could be expended in the creation Of the
inland ports; and that the necessities
and conveniences of commerce demand
that such ports shall be created. Sec
retary Sherman favors the plan, but il
is doubtful if it will secure the sanction
of Congress. 1t would probably result
in the multiplicity Of custOm-houses, as
it is not likely that any Congressman
would favor the abolishment of any OF
the present ports of entry, in bis own
district at least.

which provides that the license tax
paid by the lawyers and doctors some
years ago shall be refunded. The or
dinances under which these taxes were
paid were repealed in 1879 by the Leg.
islature, and up to that time only a
small proportion of the professional
men had paid this tax, as its collection
had been resisted. About one hundred
lawyers out Of seven or eight hundred
had paid and about fifty doctors.
These gentlemen insist that they
should not be the only sufferers simply

From Longfellow to the "Sweet Singer

A Great Year for Emigration

This year promises to bring rs the
greatest foreign immigration Of any
year in the history Of the country.
The total is likely to exceed even that
of the remarkable y year 1854, when the
number of arrivals at this port were
over 3l9, 900. Using the arrivals of the
first four months of 1880 as the basis for
an estimate. which we can safely do,
they will aggregate not less than 4OO, 900
for the twelve months.
Castle Garden is crowded with fresh
ly landed Germans, Scandinavians,a and
Irish. Steamers will. large passenger
lists are daily discharging, and more
are on the ocean. The great European n
steamship lines, especially the German,
are taxed to their utmost to supply
transportation for the emigrants, and
every vessel at their command will
be crowded with the living freight
throughout the summer and autumn.
The arrivals at Castle Garden in
April exceeded in number the aggre-
CRATE of any previous month, and
about equalled the total arrivals for
the whole first quarter Of the year,
though those were more than three
times the total for the same quarter of
1879. And the present month will un-
doubtedly show a large increase over
April, the expected immigration being
about $4,000. May is the favorite
month for crossing the sea with this
class of passengers, though the tide
flows strongly throughout the summer,
and September usually ranks next af-
ter May in the number of its arriv-
ais.
From Germany and the Scandinavia
an countries the increase in emigration
has 80 far this year been most marked.
The Scandinavians are very desirable
additions tn our population. The Ger
man steamship companies not only
have agencies in Sweden and Norway,
but they also despatch vessels there to
take emigrants, who formerly sailed
from English ports. Besides, a direct
line has been established from Copen-
hagen, and its steamers are coming hith-
er with large passenger lists. These
hardy immigrants are seeking homes
In the Western States and Territories,
and will prove most valuable citi-
zens.
Irish Immigration has also revived,
though not yet has the destitution in
Ireland produced its full effect. But
the Irish usually prefer the summer
for coming over, and not until month
or more from now shall we begin to
see the marked increase In their emil |
grafton which will undoubtedly % sx-
hibited this year. It II safe to estimate
that Ireland will send US between one
and two hundred thousand Of Its peo-
pie in 1880, or more than three times
the pumber Of those who came over in
1879.
The great German and Irish emf
grafton in the yesr 1854, and in the
years just previous to 1t and immedi- !
ately succeeding, worked most inn
portant change in American society.
