A Welcome TO Connecticut.

The Charleston Neus AID Courier vel
coined Gov. Bigelow. of Connecticut, and
his party to South Carolina with a sup
plement to its regular edition, containing
q full list of the visitors, portraits of the
Governor, Lieutenant Governor, the Comp
troller and the Secretary of State, an &C
count of their careers, and description
of Hartford and New Haven. Editorially
the same journal said: "Make the Repub-
lie one great family Of States, and Incl.
dental antagonisms will no mere threaten
its unity than the pleasant Title unpleas-
antnesses of our home life jeopardize the
symmetry and unity of the family circle
Our Connecticut friends understand this
and act on it. Connecticut and South
Carolina can no more be put asundel
hereafter than husband and wife can, and
we write in State where there is no di
vorce for any cause. The old idea, in
simple phrase, was that incempatibility
of temper was sufficient caure for divorce

selves by compromising their differences
and by charity in their opinions, as fam.
lily groups always do, and this makes the
union of the States forever as practicable
as it is desirable and necessary" The
men of Connecticut were delighted with
their reception in South Carolina.

Terrible Explosion at the Navy Yard

A terrible explosion teok place Friday
in the ordnance departement, Washington
navy yard, where the illuminate in made
by whichone man, George Lawrence, was
instantly killed and several wounded. The
wounded were George W. Gates and Mar
ionrrhompson. The explosion was accomp-
anied by three reports which were at first
supposed to be caused in torpedo expert
ments and were not generally noticed un-
til the alarm bell in the yard had struck
several times. Then the greatest excitement
prevailed. The gates of the yard were
closed and on one was allowed to enter or
depart. The explosion occurred in small
brick house, in the west end of the yard
Lawrence was engaged in drilling or
charging an old rocket, which through
some arrangement, exploded under his
hands. 1t is thought other Eliminates ex-
ploded too. The Interior walls of the
building were demolished.

at Lynchbarg, Va, in the place of Wilson,
veteran OF the Federal army, who has
held the place since the war and who has
refused to join the coalition with Malone.
The Democrats, perceiving the purpose OF
this movement, solidly and persistently
opposed it. The Republicans pretended
to justify their action by showing from
the old post office records that Wilson had
once been short in his accounts. This
mere subterfuge evinced its own infirmity
as it appeared that this slight defalcation
had occurred many months ago, and was
not then complained of, and it was not
alleged that Wilson's accounts show any
irregularity at present. The Republicans
were astounded, when the Democrats read
in executive session letter from Circui,
Judge Rives of Virginia to the President
urging Mr.. Arthur to make this change as
means of breaking down bourbonisnl
and securing the election of Republican
Senator. Finding the Democrats imms-
vabls in their determination to thwart
them in this piece of demagogism, the
Republicans consented to an adjournment.
Wilson has been since removed by Mr.
Arthur and Statham appointed in his
place. This appointment can only hold
good until the assembling of Congress in
December and Mahone's crowd will de
rive very little comfort from this limited
exercise Of the administrations power =
The firnness aud determination with
which the Democrats have opposed this
bad coalition with Malone will command
the admiration of all fair minded men o.
whatever political opinion.

yer political opinion.

Ex-Governor E. D. MORGAN, of New
York, of whom we spoke last week
as having been nominated 10y the Pres
ident as Secretary of the Treasury,
and promptly confirmed by the Senate,
declined 10 enter the Cabinet, pleading as
his excuse his advanced age. Upon re-
ceiving his declination, the President
nominated Judge Charles J. Foger, of the
same State, who was also promptly con-
firmed by the Senate. Judge Folger has
accepted, and will assume the Treasury
portfolio without del'y. Mr.. Window,
Mr.. Garfield's Secretary of the Treasury
resigned a week or more ago, and has
been reelected to a seat in the Senate
from Minnesota. Judge Folger, the new
Secretary, at the time of his appointment,
was Chief Justice of tie Supreme Court
of the State of New York, and is consid-
cred lawyer Of ability. He has also II
is said had considerable experience in fl
nancial matters 1t will he remembered
that it was Judge Folger whom Mr.. Conk-
ling. in his extensively published confer
ence with Mr.. Garfield, suggested for the
Treasury portfolio, and il was Mr.. Car
fields disregard of this recommendation
that led 20 he war between Conkling and
the late administration. The Baltimore
american thinks that the appointment OF
Judge Folger. demonstrates the influence
which Conkling is tn exercise over the
present administration. Ii is now said
that Mr. Arthur was assured, when he
nominated Gov Morgan. that that gen
tleman would decline 1t is further said
that the appointment of Judge Fo ger is
but prelude to the ultimate appointment
of Mr. Conkling to the Treasury. The
theory is that Judge Folger will resign
in the course of the winter. in order to be
appointed to the prospective vacancy on
the Supreme Bench, caused by the proba-
BILE retirement of Judge Hunt by Congress,
and that then Mr.. .Conkiing will'be rs
signed the Treasury portfolio. Some Of
the papers have rud:'y compared this re-
ported man9vreing of the late New York
Senator, to tramp without ticket.
who waits until the train gels into such
rapid melton as not to sop to put him off,
and then jumps on" This is very IN
dignified and improper comparison.
Mr.. Arthur has also nominated Mr..
Frank Hatton, the funny man Il the Bar
lington Haukeye, for 1st Assistant Post

signed, and Mr.. Hatton has been duly
confirmed
