SECRETARY WINDOW has kept so busy at
reducing the interest on $170,000,000 of
the debt from six to three and a half per
cent that he has not had much time to
tell his old companions in the Senate how
to vote on any of the exciting questions
of the day, and now he is going to try
and reduce the interest on S5O0,000,000
from five to three and half per cent.
AND now it transpires that while
France hunted Arab bandits in Tunis
she was also hunting for Tunis herself
The outlook is favorable to the absorption
of Tunis into the French colony of AL
geria. In the deal France will annex a
debt of $35,0O0,O00, of which four-fifths
had been bought up by enterprising
French citizens at a low figure They
will lose nothing by the boom these
securities will experience when assumed
by France.

IT is not place which constitutes real
greatness, since the man who occupies
the first place but seldom plays the
principal part. How many kings are
governed by their ministers-how many
ministers by their secretaries? Who in
such cases is really the chief? He, as it
seems to me, who can see through the
others, and possesses strength or skill
enough TO make their power or passions
subservient to the execution of his own
designs" ."-Goethe.

WASHINGTON, May l2.-It is reported and be-
heved here that George C. GOrhan. the Republi-
can nominee for Secretary of the Senate and man
aging editor of THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,, of this
city, wrote the five column attack upon President
Garfield published in the New York Herald of YES
terday. Senator COnkling, it is understood insti-
gated the act and furnished the material and with
his own hand revised the matter before its publ
cation. This report is credited in quarters where
floating rumors usually find little credence-Nclg
York TfjbHite'S Washington Correspondent.
George c. Gorham did not write, sug-
gest, or have any knowledge, prior to its
publication, of any of the matter which
disappeared in the Herald concerning the
President. Senator Conkling declares
that he neither furnished or inspired the
matter alluded to, and has no knowledge
of its authorship.
