human nature; it has been just so since
Adam ate the celebrated apple in the no
less notorious garden, and the future will
not produce any different results; at least
the signs OF the times do not indicate any
change. Boys try to initiate men, and lit
tie girls enjoy following in the footsteps OF
women. But to the point.
A number OF boys living in Bodie, rang
ing from ten to fifteen years Of age, are in
the habit OF daily frequenting a cabin on
Wood street, and there engaging IN the
fascinating game Of faro. They have 9
clay out" Of their own manufacture, and
the game is carried on according to rcgula-
ton rules. Instead of a silver box, one
Of wood is used, and in lieu Of money and
expensive checks, matches, buttons and
other simple articles are employed. Those
who have seen the boys around the table
say that the players, dealer, ~case-keeper and
lookout go through the performance like
old stagers. Quite frequently coin Is
passed over the table and into the drawer.
A match goes for two bits. a button means
half a dollar and so on. While these boys
may not be fitting themselves for ministers
of the gospel they certainly are training
their minds for successful stock gamblers.
There is nothing like starting in early.
Meanwhile the attention of certain fond
parents is called to the fact as above re-
corded.

INTERESTING PAPERS.

Two interesting papers on timely and
popular subjects are presented in the
July number OF the Penn Monthly. One
is on ''The Need of a Broader Political
Education" by Hon. Dorman B. Eaton,
and the other on "Bossism and Civil Ser
vice Reform" by John Andrews Harris.
Mr.. Eaton urges the necessity OF politi-
cal education as a preventative Of politi.
cal abuses. and claims hat in school
academies and colleges this education can
be given with the best results. Mr..
Harris traces the origin Of ''bossism" to
Aaron Burr, and makes it responsible for
the, many evils connected with the civil
service. To reform the latter there is
but one remedy in his opinion, and that
is the adoption of rules which provide for
the tested fitness Of all applicants for of.
fee below the properly political ones Of
the Cabinet, heads of departments and
foreign missions.

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

The international Monetary Confer
ence has adjourned, and a review of its
labors are in order. They have no doubt
been arduous, but, unfortunately, they
have also been inconclusive. The Con-
ference has settled nothing, unless it be
that the problem with which it wrestled
does not admit Of settlement in the man
ner adopted. Any overtures from the
United States tending toward the appre-
citation of silver, are regarded in Europe
with suspicion. They are construed as
~springing from a c~onclusively commercial
impulse, much in the same way as the
Eastern people are apt to regard the leg
i~slative proposals of men interested in
silver mining. European governments
see in the United States a country which
produces silver, and they suspect us of a
desire to get the best of them. Conse-
quently they will not move even to their
own advantage, lest in some way we
should be the greatest gamers.

raE CRIME AND IRIS CAUSE.

It is significant that the stalwart Re-
publicans generally repudiate the idea
that the spoils system had anything
whatever TO do with the attempted assas'
s~ination Of the President. The stalwart
Republican organs, with one accord, de-
clare that Guiteau is simply an individual
~scoundrel, who did just what any other
malignant, depraved wretch might nave
done under similar circumstances. His
character is bad and his brain is turned.
No system is responsible for him. As
well condemn the law and theology be-
cause he claimed to be a lawyer and
theologian, as to denounce a particular
method of distributing official patronage
because he claimed to be a politician and
was a disappointed ofice-seeker.
This is su perfcial and unsatisfactory
reasoning. A mailman may attempt
anything. But there is no proof that
Cuiteau is insane. The simple, notorious
facts are that he worked according to his
ability and opportunity for Garfield's
election !; that after Garield's election he
wanted and applied for an office, and
that, failing to get the appointment, he
shot the President. Guiteau knew that
there was an admitted relation between
working in the campaign and getting an
Office after the battle was o He saw
men who had worked for Garield's elec-
tion rewarded by appointment. The man
who voted for Garfield steadily and alone
for a week was rendered a place in the
Postofice Department. Robinson, who
made his nomination successful, was re-
warded by the New York Collectorship.
Hundreds of other instances occurred
under his eyes. With his enormous
eeotism and inflated self-conceit he nat
urally concluded that he deserved and
was as well fitted for a Federal office as
some of those whom the President had
provided for, and that he was passed over
out of spite. 1t is impossible to review
the facts of the case without being forced
to the conclusion that Guiteau's crime
was the natural and legitimate result OF
a system of distributing Federal patron
age which is false in principle, perni-
cious in practice, inimical to the best
interests of the country, and dangerous.
The would.be assassin should be dealt
with as severely as the law allows. But
the common sense and conscience of the
country demand that the system which
legitimizes such crimes ought to be
abolished.

OVER THE WATER.
The German Emigration Assuming
Alarming Proportions.
Especial to the SENrINFL.1

LONDON, July 1S.-A Berlin correspond
emit says: The statistics published by the
Hamburg police authorities show that tine
number of German emigrants passing
through one port alone, Hamburg, to Amer
74~,633-being twice the number for the
same period in the year following the late
war between France and Germany. The
figures for such emigration in the CORE
spending period of last year were 80, 489,
and the total for the year LOG. 100; 50 that
If the emigration proceeds in the same ratio
for the second half of the year 1881 the
Government will find that, reckoning fugi-
tives by other channels, it has lost In 1881
about 200, 600 of its most efficient subjects.

to Chicago for 50. Persons purchasing
tickets to points further West than Chicago
do not find it an easv matter to get . re-
duction on the old prices. There appears
to be no war on prices within this State;
the greatest reduction being made on tickets
to Chicago. Many persons are taking adj
vantage of the war, and are taking their
vacation in Western cities.
A Fatal Insane Freak.
ST.. PAUL MIMI, July ia Winona
special says Paul Held, a Swiss emigrant,
who had lately bought q farm in Eagle
Creek Valley, became insane through the
failure of his crops and bo~mesickness, and
on Sunday was found dead in the front
| room of his house. His wife and two
| children were dead in the next room, and
| three children dead in a bed upstairs, and
the two oldest boys in the hay-loft MORALLY
wounded. All were shot in the head. One
boy may live.
War with France openly Discussed.
NEW YORK, July 19.-The Herald's Mad
| rid special says the feeling Of hostility
toward France is still very bitter, thanks
TO the Conservative papers, which are do
ing their best to fan the fame for party
purposes, hoping to embarrass Sagosta
and provoke Spanish Intervention in Mo-
rocco eventually. War with France is
| openly discussed in the Madrid cafes, and
| the coming elections are for the moment
forgotten.
Advices from sitting BulI's Camp.
ST.. PAUL Mimi, July 19.-The Pho
neer-Press has special advices from Sitting
Bulls camp. which is within eight miles
of Fort Buford, that he is coming in in
charge of Scout Leger. Captain Clifford
has gone out to receive his surrender. The
| special says the Indians are almost starved,
most of them d~ismounted, and all dis
couraged. Five chiefs. 200 bucks, women
and children are in the band.
Ingalls, n DefauIter.
WASHINGTON, July 19.-Among the in
dictments found by the Criminal Court
Grand Jury is one against George M. In
gals, formerly United States Indian Agent
at the Piute Agency, for presenting false
vouchers, one for 50, 200, and one for $1S4
in 1878. 1t is alleged that ingalls, is a de-
faulter to the amount of about 500, 900 to
the Government. He is said to be some
where out West.

ator-elect Miller from Levi P. Morton,
Postmaster Pearson, Postmaster General
James, Canal Appraiser Bostwick, and
other Of Conkling's followers, as a hope

IRISH CENSUS.

The publication of the recent Irish
census supplies someinteresting statistics.
During the last ten years the population
of the Emerald Isle has decreased to the
extent Of more than a quarter Of a mil
lion. This decrease has taken place in
twenty-nine of the thirty-two counties.
Dublin, Antrim and Kerry have held
their own. 1t is quoted as a significant
fact that the decrease is due to the emf
grafton of Irishmen in moderately fair
circumstances

NOBLEMEN As WALTERS.
Barons Believed to be Jerk.
Ing Beer ON the Bowery.
r.xv VT O. T-.so

A story is shoat to the effect that q for
eign authoress who went to Delmonico's
uptown restaurant to dine found that the
waiter who came forward t. wait on her
was her brother. The item was shown to
the manager at Delmonico's, and he was
asked II there was any truth in It. He
shook his head and smiled.
Every now and them" he said, "some
story Of the kind Is set afoat. Generally,
however. it Is about . waiter who is . mo-
bleman." F..
.Is it not . fact that occasionally you
have . nobleman among you'll"
1T 10 not ct all unlikely. There are
plenty OF noblemen abroad who are very
poor, and sorue times are hard put to Il
for Q good meal. In such cases they often
drop their titles. II they come to this
country why should they not work ct wait
ing as well As any other business? Then
there are the fast young noblemsn who run
through their means and smigrate. They
have not been brought up to any busi-
ness, they are unacquaiDted with the
ways Of American life. but they know
about table service, and Q job a. waiter
is . thing they are best qualified for.
Noblemen are not scarce in the Old World.
In Germany the title goes to all Of the
sons Of q noblsman. I have no doubt
there are noblemen jerking beer in the
Bowery. We have had noblemen occa-
~sionally among our corps Of walters.
There is nothing surprising in it. We see
men-merchants. brokers, etc.--who make
. great deal Of money. They live fast.
spend freely and make 9 great figure in the
world for Q time, and then Q smash
and they disappear. Perhaps We may af-
terward hear Of them working In Q mine or
hsrding cattle on the plains. There IL
nothing so surprising In finding that the
waiter who takes your order Is Q Count or
q Baron.

The Carson Appeal says that on Friday
last three Storey county gentlemen left
that place for Wood River. They repre-
sent considerable capital. and their inten-
ton is to build smelling furnaces all
through the Wood River country. Their
base OF operations will be Bellevue. Just
now It costs from $50 to $40 per ton to
haul the rock to the furnaces in Utah, and
this tax is so great that but few can realize
on it. The gentlemen think with furnaces
on the ground they can get all the work
and do 1t as cheaply as the Salt Lake man
ipulators. They have taken experienced
amalgamators and mill men with them.
The news from the new district continues
conflicting. but many have strong faith in
its ultimate success.
