The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Commercial Advertiser writes
under date OF September 9th: Con
trary to general expectation, the whole
cabinet is likely to be reconstructed.
Mr.. Blaine will desire to be relieved as
soon MS the senate convenes and his sue.
cessor is confirmed. This will open the
way to the general reorganization il,
October. The serious trouble will be in
selecting his premier, unless Gen. Gran,
should be willing to take the state de-
partment. The whole country feels that
Mr.. Blaine's place will be hard to til
with n less great and historic aud repre-
sentative name than that of Ulysses S
Grant. There is but one thing in the
way, and that is the large interest lie ha:
in the Mexican railroads. Mr.. Windon
will no doubt desire to return to the sch
ate. The president will feel bound t.
make an easy change in the treasury
however he may respect Mr.. Windon
personally. The president in appoint
ing new secretary will hardly risk, a
his predecessor did, a rev and untriet
man on sectional preference. inclin,
to the belief that it will be Mr.
Boutwell,. III Mr.. Fish or Gen. Grant
both now OF New York, go into the stat,
department, Gen. James will be mad
assistant United States treasurer in Ney
York and the post Office will go to th
west, most likely to Michigan. Shoul

Another blow has been struck at popu-
lar respect for the Supreme Court of the
United States by the confirmation of the APP |
pOintment of Stanley Matthews as an Asso- |
eiate Justice on that bench. Mr.. Matthews |
is not great constitutional lawyer.
He is a politician who regarded from any
conceivable stand point is man of I'M
certain actions and ill-deined convictions.
He has unquestionably done acts and
uttered words extremely Objectionable to
Republican Stalwarts. On the other hand
he engineered the Louisiana fraud, and
entered into relations with the periured
James L. Anderson which would have
justified his indictment on a charge of
criminal conspiracy. He has also and
quite recently, made wildly Stalwart
address.
The truth is that he is loose thinker
governed more by emotion than reason in
his judgments and is constitutionally in
capable of being good judge even were
he far greater lawyer than any one
claims he is. lie is the counsel for
several great corporations with view to
political influence in their behalf, and he
has intimate relations with Jay Gould,
who has pressed his appointment and
confirmation. Every lawyer of ability
and reputation in the Senate opposed his
confirmation, and many Republican
Senators voted against him, yet
enough southern Democrats joined Hoar
of Massachusetts, Plumb of Kansas. and
Jones Of Nevada, and other small fry.
to overcome the opposition Of the ablest
Republicans led by Edmunds and the
ablest Democrats led by Bayard
to the nomination, and to secure
its continuation by majority of one.
We do not know how to comment on
so annoying result, We cannot under.
stand why Mr.. Hayes first nominated thi.
man nor why MIR. Garfield renewed tn,
nomination. We do not see why narrow.
| minded Eastern Stalwarts like Hoar fee
that they can trust Matthews and We can
not imagine why Southern Democrat,
! such as Lamar can vote to confirm sucl
-, an appointment. 1t is beyond explanation
and almost beyond belief. 1t certainl,
will weaken still further the wanin
Il. respect for the supreme Bench which vii

The Delacarean gives the following
sensible advice upon the subject of i'm
proving Jones Creek Colonel Ludlow,
who. we believe, superintends improve
ments ON the lower Delaware, has been
down to inspect the creek preparatory to
svpending the appropriation. He finds
.wo incorporate companies authorized to
make improvements, one Mt the lower
end and one above, each, we believe,
authorized to make improvements and
perhaps to charge tolls. This illustrates
the folly of granting all charters that are
asked for. The engineers will hardly
expend the appropriation made by Con
gress for the benefit Of private companies,
and these charters may defeat any i'm
provemcnt of the creek by the Govern
ment. The hest thing these companies
can do il at once to confer with Colonel
Ludlow or his superior officer, aud make
arrangements to renunnco all rights and
privileges under the acts of incorporation,
and turn over 10 them any money which
the companies may have raised to be
expended under their direction in the i'm
prOvement of the creek"

II is exaspersting to learn that ex-
Senator Dorsey managed to get a few
minutes ahead of Postmaster General
James and secured the letters in the pos
session of Wilcox out in Denver, contain
ing evidence of corrupt bargaining in
connection with the Star routes. Ac-
cording to telegram from Denver, Dorsey
secured the letters and the discontinuance
of the suit begun by Wilcox by paying
the latter's claim for services rendered in
working up the matter of expediting star
routes. Just after the letters were secured
by Dorsey the Postmaster General tele
graphed for the documents or copies OF
photographs of them. 1t will now be
easy and altogether natural for Dorsey
to deny that they ever existed, but Their
is some hope in the assurance that certi
fed copies are preserved at Portland
Oregon.

Near New York City-Obc OF the
1osi Revolving Crimes in Many
Years of u Death Strug-
gic-No clue to the Mystery.
There is much excitement in Hoboken,
Guttenburg, Jersey City, and in fact all
along the Jersey shore in consequence of
the discovery of the mutilated body of n
young German girl apparently about IL
years old, in some underbrush on the
Bergen line boulevard, exhibiting all the
evidences of an inhuman murder. The
right side and back OF the skull had been
crushed rs il with some heavy weapon,
and the lobe of the left ear from which a
gold earring had depended, had been
torn away. Tie right ear was also torn
as if in an effort to pull out the earring.
The grass at the spot were the body was
found was not disturbed, but some 10
feet away the ground gave evidence of a
fearful struggle. lIandsiul of hair that had
been torn from her head lay scattered
about, and near by was a rumpled copy
of the StddtS ZeituHg, OF April 2gth.
The body has the appearance OF having
lam in the woods for abOGt week. Near
the right side of tho head was a stone
weighing about 20 pounds; this was
covered with blood, and tufts Of hair
We're clinging to it. This stone is a
peculiar one, and, as it is of Il kind only
found at the river front, three-quarters OF
mile away, it is supposed that the
murderer who used it must have carried
it all that distance. Fragments of sea
weed still chung to it, and diligent search
failed to reveal any place in the sod near
lnl a
taken. The remains We're first discovered
by man named Sisuo, who keeps q
saloon in Third street, lloboken. lie was
accompanied by his wife at the time
Sisco says his attention was first attracted
to the spot by two little boys who ran out
of the woods, pale and frightened, and OF
interrogating them as to what was til,
matter, they told him what they had seen
