Mucu SCANDAL has been created
recently by the exposure Of corruption
in the PoatolIioe Department in what is
known as the star routes" Assistant
Postmaster General Brady, who had
charge of this particular branch of the
business is deeply implicated, aud his
resignation has been required. There
seems to be no doubt about the corrup
ton of the affair and that the govern
ment has been shamclcssly swindlcd out
of millions of dollars BI, to what ox-
tent the corruption has gone, AMI who
is involved in it cannot yet be fully as
contained 1t is even charged that the
sanity Hayes was in somc WY mixed
up in the rascality, whilst Gorhan, the
editor os the National Republican. pub
hshed at Washington, and the nominee
Of the caucus Of the Senate r publiclns
for Secretary, does not hesitate to charge
Garfield with also being smirched, and
that the money Of this corrupt rang, at
his instance, was used to buy Indiana.

TIE ESTABLISHMENT of the House of

THE ESTABLISHMENT of the House Of
Correction has hal the effect, as was pro.
phesied, Of reducing the number of pris-
oners in the penitentiary The number Of
unfortunates in this latter institution usu-
ally ranged from nine hundred up, but
since the opening of the House Of Cor
rcction, and IN consequence Of the mum
Der Of snail cases sent there, instead Of
to the penitentary, the number ofpris-
oncrs in the latter place usually ranges
from five to six hunirel. As the State
receives 50 much a day, from the c1ntrac-
tors, for the work done by the prison
ers, the decrease in the latter lessons the
receipts Of the institution To meet this
falling OFF in its receipts and at the same
time maintain its self sustaining charac-
ter, the Board of Managers have dis
charged several officers and made grad
ed reduction in the salaries of all the
employees. Reform and reduction of ex-
penses is the cry nov, aud we should
not be at all surPrized ,ifuuder its stip,lLa

and find themselves. No doubt flTs
would accord perfectly with Gay. Ham
ilton's opinion of the eternal fitness of
things" though we never heard that he
failed, in the several high Offices filed
by him, to draw his pay with mastery
regularity, and which he, in our opinion
deserved forthe ability fidelity displayed
by him. Though perhaps, with his pocu-
liar views, ana the vigor with which he
rides his hobby-horse Of reform" and
economy, he might be pleased r sae a
class of Cheap-Johns come to the front
to serve their suffering country for nomi-
nal or no pay, in our opinion it would
be a sad day for the public service and
the public at large, when such false
system, to use paradox, of extrayagant
econmy should be inaugurated 1t
would lead to but one result-peculation,
jobbery and plundering ofthe taxpayers
far beyond the amount Of the most Iiber-
al scale Of salaries.
There be reforms aud reforms Some
are reforms in substance and acoop plish
the ends designed others oH,q 60
in Appearance, are really whitened sennl
chres, fair to look upon, but mass of
corruption within; reforms protesting to
correct abuses and to bering about econ

suits they ought to prevent. 0ftb;s i

Ths impeachment Of the press on
State is very grave matter "a fa
more serious Latter than the proposition
that the money paid for publishing tn,
laws i. wasted We have thought tina
the subsidy charge against the news
papers was inadvertently made in tht
Governors message, and it may be tina
it was SO, inasmuch as it does net seen
to be repeated in his recent latter, il
which there is 50 much that is wise ans
commendable, as we have recently point
"a out Bat the fact that orr able con-
temporary, tie Hagerstown Nail, has
recently renewed the charge, and con-
tnues to repeat it, renders it proper to
make the rclutation we think we have
successfully done. let the Mail con
troycrt the facts as we have stated them.
Our pos;ti N, restated, is that the laws
should be published and paid for by the
State, in til, interest Of the people; as
we have 4 reading and thinking people
Stop publishing them, and it is the peo-
pie that will suffer rather chan the news
papers. Ifthc sums paid are exhorltant,
reduce them, but do not cut off from the
people the privilege Of knowing wAa'
laws are made.
