A WASHINGTON dispatch to the New
York Times says; president Arthur Is not
giving the professional olIlccseckers much
encouragement, Within few days there
have been several attempts to have him re-
move postmastcrs on the ground that they
werenot Grant Republicans. The President
surprised his visitors in each case by tell
ing them in decided terms that he did not
sec how that made any difference, and that
such considerations would certainly not
control him. His personal relation to
General Grant was one thing; his duty to
the entire Republican party quite another
thing. His aim would be to keep con-
stantly in view the good Of the service and
the party as whole"

THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 81.

An INGENIOUS ESCApE.-As MIR. Peter Null.
Vaney, wealthy farmer Of Msrengo. Mich.
WAS crossing the kalsmsZoo River ri that place
on one OF the cold days OF last week. he stepped
nto an air-hole that was concealed by a thin
crust Office, in the middle Of the channal, where
there ia depth of several feet and quite cur.
rent He camo down on his breast, with his
arms extended on the ice i'll front, which WAS
sohd; but as the most OF his body was in the wa
ter, and elghtcd down with his wet and heavy
clothing, II was impossible for him to get Out
until by presence CT mind and fOrethoughl
rarely equsled, he conceived tho idea ofWetting
the buckskn mittens no had on and letting them
freeze TO the smooth ice, when his strong arms
would answer for his safety.
But to attempt this was hazardous. as his body
was SO poised on tho edge Of the ice that by any
movement OF his arms backward he was in dan.
ger OF losing the elippery hold he already had,
and sinking back into the stream and be drawn
under ty tho current. Another risk WAS, that
should he wet his Overcoat sleeves, they would
Instantly adhere TO the ice and he would be ut
terly helpless and soon perish from tho ntens SO
cold. II was bis only hope and no resolved to
take the chances. BY carefully bringing his
right hand back By his eide he succeeded in
WettiDg the milton on that hand. and then ex
tending it ahead as far rs he could reach. held
1t until the milton was firmly fastened 10 the ice;
no then withdrew his hand and seiZ I'D il, and
thus had firm support Ho served the milton
on the other hand tho same wsy and thus be-.
csme master Of tho situation, and readily pulled
hlmaelf out Of bis perilous position.
