President CARTEL "a civil service re-
form ideas have now taken dednite
form and all concerned or rot con-
cerned can take look at them. He
says he will make appointments to Of
tlce to suit the wishes Of members OF
congress. This is the lowest possible
grade Of civil service without even the
slightest attempt at the much promis-
ed reform" 1t will of course suit
congressman to keep things in the old
ruts, hut whether the people will be
suited or benefited does not seem TO
enter into the calculation of the new
administration.

GENERAL GARFIELD jus tifes rhe
severest imputations tIat have been
made against him as man of moral
backbone in atfronting the moral sense
of the country by revivinS the discred-
liable nomination If Stanley Matt hews
for place on the Supreme Bench.
Nor can he be said TO Sin without
light. Ee has had anample opporLuni-
ty to learn the sentiment OF the cnun-
try as to this particular person. There
is hardly areputable journal Of bis own
party that has not resented the NEIL
tion of Mr.. Matthews for the bench.
His marked and peculiar untitness the
Senate committee last session Cmpha-
sized By refusing to consider mis- name.
No developments have been made
since the virtual rejection of Matth.
ews' name to excuse Gar6eld's revival
Of it. On the contrary, there are sin
lister signs in the recent aud lcious dec
larations Of his railroad friends and
the corpor atoms generally TO make the
danger Of his going to the bench more
threatening and more vivid than it was
when Hayes nrst made such An un-
becoming exhibition of his blood ties
and other not so reputable relations to
the man.-IiraeS.

The Disgraceful Bargain.

The bargain by which the control OF
the United States senate is given to
the republican party is one of the most
yrrupt and disgraceful in the history
of American politics. In order that
the senate might be politically tied SO
rs TO give the republican vice president
the casting vote, Mr.. Malone, the
repudiation senator from Virginia had
to be secured by the republican man
ayers. They accordingly offered him
the federal patronage in Virginia and
he accepted the degrading bribe. The
charge was openly made in the senate
on Monday that conferences had been
held at the White House looking to the
consummation Of the vile bargain and
Mahone's conduct in the senate, his
votes given on motions relating to the
organization of the body, and especial
ly his exhibition of temper when taken
Z, task by Mr.. Hill, furnish the most
convin ,ing evidence that the corrupt
compact was duly ratified by the pres
i1ent. Meanwhile Messrs. Jccgensen
and Dezendorff, the two republican
c ,ngrossmen from Virginia, have sery
~ nosica on the administration that

tionof the fedela patronage in Vir-
ginia they will cast their votes in IA
vor Of democratic organization OF
the next house of representatives.
They hold the balance IF power in the
house as Malone holds 1t in the senate.
1t has been predicted il these columns
that any stroke the republicans might
undertake IN a bargain with Malone
would recoil upon them with disas-
trous effect. The declarations of the
Virginia republican congressman are
proof that the prediction il already IN
process of fulf!lment. In our opinion
the democratic party is not only well
rid of Malone, but the republican par
ty will be irreparably damaged by Its
adoption of that notorious representa-
tive OF dishonest finance and thlmble-
rigging politics.-PGtriot.

SAX FRANCISCO, March 15.-Brevet
Major General Emory Upton, U. 4. A,
Was found dead in his bed At Presidio
this morning, having shot himself
through the head some time during
the night. General Upton retired ut
about his usual hour last night, having
spent the evening in Becial converse.
The frat intimation OF the tragedy was
obtained this morning between 8 and 0
O'Clock, when his orderly went TO call
the General. Receiving no answer to
his knock the orderly opened the door
and found the officer dead in bed. The
alarm WAS instantly given, and sever
al officers of the regiment having
hastened to the room it was discovered
that the General had committed suicide.
A revolver was still grasped in his
hand. A bullet wound through his
mouth into the brain told the history
OF his death plainly. The body was
cold and stiff, aud life had evidently
been extinct several hours, probably
since midnight. Neither the body nor
effects in his loom have been touched,
awaiting the arrival of the Coroner
The general impression seems to be
the grief at the loss Of his wife prompt
ed suicide.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

1t would not be pleasant to see Sem
ator Malone dancing on the prostrate
bodies of thirteen States. However
great his objection may be to those
Virginians who control their States in
its local affairs, or to his old associates
in other States who have succeeded in
getting control of their section into in
teiligent hands, submit that 1t would
not be pleasant to see him enabled to
crafty his spite bY reversing the pres.
ent order If things there and putting
ignorance acoVe intelligence aud sociaI
anarchy above well organized society.
In short, he ought not to be permitted
to so strengthen the Radical part OF
the Republican party as to give it pow
er in the South. If he shall persist in
the course he seems to have marked
out for himself trust that President
Garfield, cy refusing to call an extra
session of Congress-, and by patriot
ic course in his Southern appointments
and in his other official acts, will he
kinder to the South than this Senator,
and will protect Mahoue's constitu-
entS from Malone The Senator
voted with the Republicans yesterday
in the organization of the Senate
Committees, thus doing all he could to
secure Republican legislature tor six
years. Unless there shall bs an extra
session of Congress, howeve and the
order Of thugs ten years o restored
by the sending of packed committees
OF Representatives South, there is lit
tie danger. The mere fact OF Mahone's
treaehery will ensure a conservative
House Of Representative two years
from this time.
All the Cabinet officers haye been
busy most of the time since the fourth
in disposing OF Office seekers. They
are now settling down to work. Sec.
retary Lincoln is the only one of them
who resnlutely refuses to see appli-
cants for cffice. The present Cabluet
is better one, socially, than that Of
Mr.. Hayes. So President Garfield is a
better man, In that respect, than his
predecessor. He took extraordinary
pains to make it understood that his
first reception, held on Thursday night,
vas as much for Democrats a. for Re-
publicans. 1t seems odd that any ef-
fort of the kind should be necessary,
but during the last twelve years Dem
oc.a.s .dve only been at the White
House when compelled to 60 there.
-. that will be- changed under the
present administration.
1t was stated yesterday by a friend
of Secretary Kirkwood that the inten-
tion of all the Cabinet officers whose
subordinates are civilians, was to
make complete changes in the heads of
the Bureaus during the year, but that
probably few changes would be made
this spring. Hundreds Of useless peo-
PIE are provided for in these depart
mente and the only way to get rid Cf
them seems to be to substitute new for
old occupants of Bureau position.
Someof these worthless public servants
are legacies from the administrations
of Lincoln, Johnson, Grant and Hayes.
S me of them we're worthless when ap-
pointed, and have drawn money they
never had a right to. This admins
tration, it is believed, will rid the SER
vice of most of them.
