1t is safe to say that the Republican
party is to-day stronger in the affec-
tiOns of the people than it was when
the splendid victory of last November
was celebrated. The popular heart
has been moved during the past sum
mer, not only to sympathy with the
great, patient, dying leader, but with
the aims and aspirations which guided
him and declared him true prophet
and exemplar of his party's teachings
and ruling motives. If the country
were asked tomorrow to choose be
tween the two parties, the majority
that indicated Garfield against the
calumnies and bitter vilifications of the
last canvass would unquestiOnably be
far more emphatic and rebuking. 1t
will not soon be forgotten that the
Democratic party, now so anxious to
testify its admiration of the noble man
who has passed beyond reach alike of
its praise and it's abuse, was busy only
a year ago at traducing and denouncing
him with a vileness never equalled,
and concOcting schemes of forgery and
perjury to blast both his political for
tune and personal character. This
same party would do this same despi-
cable thing again, and the country
knows it st. Louis GlobeDemOcrat.

The New Administration.

The adjournment of the special ses-
of the administration of President
Arthur. The record thereon is not one
calculated to excite any fears for
the safety of the republic, and those
who expected the new President to
make a clean sweep in Cabinet offices
and elsewhere are disappointed. Pres
ident Arthur has thus far done well.
He has been i'll no hurry to make the
changes which it lies in his power to
make, and has acted moderately, not
choosing to unsettle national affairs.
What he intends to do in future no.
body knows. The people have only to
judge of what he has done since he
took the Presidential chair, and will
be satisfied to wait for further devel-
Opments. He has sent to the Senate
majority of the nominations prepared
by his predecessor, and seems to have
kept in view, to some degree at least,
the policy inaugurated by Garfield.
In appointing Judge Folger to the Sec
retaryship of the Treasury he has not
grealy erred, as that gentleman is fair
ly qualified for the position although
the Western people are somewhat dis
gruntled because New York is getting
so large "A piece of Administration pie,

approved. By retaining Mr.. James as
Postmaster G eneral for period he
evinces desire to see the reforms
which have been instituted carried to
IA successful issue; on this ground he
has also retained Attorney-Ge neral
MacNeagh, whose services in the star
route cases have been exceedingly val
liable. Mr.. James duties elsewhere
will call him from the Cabinet soon,
and Macy eagh does not desire to remain
permanently but the fact that Presi-
dent Arthur insists on their staying
where they are is significant
Aside from this, there is little to note

new Administration. 1t is headed in
the right direction, and if when Con-
gress meets again in December it shall
turn out that the President is still dis
posed to be conservative in his ruling,
it will be IA source of satisfaction. The
Buffalo On. W Express very neatly
Expresses" it when it says: "Presi-
dent Arthur's appointments are being
watched with great anxiety by thou
sands of people who have no personal
favOrites, but are anxious to discover
the policy he proposes to pursue. If
the President is watching public senti
ment as closely AS the public is watch
ing him, he will easily be able to get
his Administration into the popular
current"

The Old story.

For the past few weeks there seems
to have been IA revival of the defalca-
ton mania, and the dispatches have
made frequent reference to cashiers,
clerks and others in high position who
have betrayed their trusts and made
use of funds belonging to other people.
The latest sensation of the kind comes
from Newark, and is the worst case
The cashier of the Mechanics National
Bank of Newark has confessed to a
defalcation of S2,0O0,000. The bank
was considered one of the soundest,
and held in trust the funds of several
large corporations, some of which are
very nearly, if not quite, ruined by
the disaster to the bank. 1t is another
sad story of misrepresentation and dis
honesty on the part of man who was
fully trusted by the directors and it
proves again to what dire end one may
come by setting aside his honor and
tampering with funds in his charge
There is no safe course but that of
strict integrity, whether ones business
transactions are large or small. The
temptation to acquire wealth by spec
ulation, by presumable temporary
use of the funds of others, has proved
fatal to the character of many mar
before, and will always be attended by
merited disgrace and condemnation
Every case of this sort has its lesson.
but, strangely enough, men are slow tc
learn it, and the story of dishonor goes
on from day to day. 1t proves that
the directors or managers of any in
stitution for the care of public funds
can not he too careful to keep
the management where it can be
overlooked from time to time. That
system of management which allows a
man to inappropriate two million
dollars, in the face of an organized
board of direction, is a faulty system.
and should be improved upon. 1t
throws too great temptation in the
way of weak humanity.
