THE ATTENTION OF THE PUBLIC is
called to the following;
Notice.
OFFICE OF PUBLIC PRINTER,

OFPIcE OF PUBLIC PRINTER,
WAsHINGToN. Sept. q, 1881.
The Government Printing Office will be
closed from noon to-day until Tuesday
morning next
As the Public Printer cannot pay, under
existing law, for tho time the office Is
closed he will submit the matter to Con-
gross and ask that he be authorized to do
So JOHN ID. DRPRERs, Public Printer.
Ordinarily the name and acts Of this su
perannuated old Government pap-sucker
would be rigidly excluded from The
CRIrIcs respectable columns but when he
degenerates to the lowest possible deeds of
injustice, as in this case, he is entitled to q
few words of contempt. This is only another
evidence of his leechlike propensitics. He
was the first man to discover that the hard
worked and undor-paid employees of the
Government Printing Office must be de-
prived OF salary under furlough for cause
Congress never contemplated such piece
of severity. 1t is gratuitous and
uncalled for invention of this greedy old
parsonage. This is the last straw on the
camel's back. Already he has outraged
common sense by Withholding pay to his
force for legal holidays If he had any
known legal right to close his department
out of respect to the memory of the Presi-
dent, he could have stretched his preroga-
tives further and found way to pay his
force for the time his order compelled them
to lose 1t is to be hoped that the official
days of this grasping old fossil are num-
bered

"ruts "a 40 rIArE for political discussion
mr. sneculation." premises the average Half
breed organ. and then goes on with solemn.
ity to lecture the new President ON what he
ought not to do. OF course this is perfectly
proper Whenever the political Jesuit or
Pharisee deems it eSpedient to establish
rulc of restraint IL is invariably observed
that he excepts himself. The essential in
spiration of the school, in politics as in the
oloey, is cant. As Disracli said of Glad
stones party creed, it is emotion and omol-
ument. The followers enjoy the emotion,
while the leaders monopolize the emolu-
ment.
IL is, therefore, quite in keeping for the able
editors of this school TO cry "hush no poll
tics now !" in one breath, and in the next
proceed to lay out the policy of President
Arthur's administration for him. Let 1t
pass. We do not propose to enter into dis
cussion of the subject now We refrain, not
because we have any sentimental scruples
about discussing public topics at such a
time, but simply because the popular mind
is too much cngrossed with other incidents
to heed what might be offered.
We feel moved to remark, however, in u
general and abstruse way, that politics is a
trade. or business or professionals You
may prefer the term-and its operations are
intensely practical. The chatter of the
Halfbreed organs is simply an cndeavor to
weave the prevailing popular emotion as a
sort of woof into a subsequent fabric of
emolument for themselves. They will proba-
bly, discover that they are carrying their
sentimentalty to poor market
We expect young men and maidens un-
dergoing the pangs of courtship to be senti-
mental: likewise new-made husbands and
wives, reveling in the evanescent sweets of
the honeymoon; but not hard-hearted, mid
dle-aged, or elderly men whose natures
have been grouted into apathetic cynicism
by the processes of American politics. Our
suggestion to the Half-breed organs, there
fore, is to follow their own advice to the
letter and cease wasting their mawlSish or
affected scntmentalism on man who is
probably as thorough practical politician
as there is in this country, and who, when
he deems 1t expedient to act, will do so in
u most practical manner.

"THE MANLINEss, good sense and right
feeling shown by Mr.. Arthur in his delicate
and embarrassing position during the last
eighty days have won for him the good
will ofthe people, even of those previously
prejudiced against him." says the Star.
We are glad to hear it, The Star can sit
down on itself with good deal of agility
considering its age and adipose. By this
time next week we shall expect the Star to
be the Stalwartest organ in the United
States-excepting possibly our esteemed
contemporary, the Washington Post.

Asa part of the history of our common
country, this is certainly important. Uucle
Dick was never looked upon as very dar-
ing mariner, but he seems to have had ex-
ecutiyc ability enough to suppress the sea-
serpent. In case the sea-serpent was recog'
nized as fact officially, the frail craft

THE THREE AMERICAS RAILWAY is the
name, as correct as it is curious, for the ma

nected southwark as far as the City Of

TURNING FROM THE LAST LOOK at the
shattered shell, from which a freed spirit
has escaped to a higher life, We came out
beneath that greater dome of the
evening sky, which twilight was draping
in sympathetic gloom, and beheld aloft the
fair flame shining like a new star fixed in
our national armament. Threading back
our way along the broad Avenue, that will
know his footsteps no more that flame
steady and strong and pure seemed to rise
higher and higher into the sky, and with
the first rush of healing comfort came the
thought that the spirit so symbolized would
now be more potent for good as memory
to be honored and followed than If he had
been returned to us alive.

THE WORLD certainly moves. The Je'o-

could learn of these reforms there might be

1t strikes us that Mrs. Christiancy's
brother is wasting n good deal of ceremony
In challenging his brotherin.law. The
case has always seemed to be one for a re-
liable cowhide or Il trustworthy cudgel. AS

In COMMENTING on Sergeant Mason's
allusion to his disagreeable job, the Inter-
Ocean most sensibly remarks:
1t does seem rather hard, that's fact. that
soldiers must be detailed for such duty,
and there will be n good deal of sympathy
with Mason's view of the subject But
soldiers are often put on disagreeable SER
vice. and this Is one OF the drawbacks OF n
soldiers life, They guarded Jcff Davis
and Wirz, the Andersonville nend, while
they slept In comfortable room. They are
now guarding Sitting Ball and other chiefs
whom they would much rather shoot ;
but 10 Is Il necessity of civilization that
criminals should be kept in safety until the
law determines their punishment and TO let
the keepers of such criminals decide when
and how that punishment shall be ineted
out is destruction of all law and demoraliz-
ing to public order. Good soldiers and re-
liable guards are faithful in all duties, dis
agreeable and agreeable alike.
Persons of Mr. Mason's delicate nerves
should adopt some other occupation. The
army is too severe.
