The Special Session of the Senate

The Speclal SESSION Oh the SSda'0'
WASHINGTON, October .9.-The special
session OF the senate mas adjourned sine
die. Mahone's postmaster, Statham,
for whose confirmation the senate lasted
all night and nearly all Of to-day, was
abandoned by the Republicans. The
President will, however, renominate
him. At caucus of Republican sena'
tors held this mo rning it was agreed to
let the Lynchburg case go over, and pro-
ceed with the other nominations not
in contest Malone WAS satisfied
with this arrangement, declaring
that the proceedings OF the past two
days would strengthen him in the i'm
pending canvass IN Virginia, as it
would show those who follow his lead
that he had at all events the support,
moral and otherwise, OF the Republicans
in the Senate, and the President besides
This may be some encouragement to
Malone; but the contest has also devel-
iped that the Democrats at all times
will resist every attempt made to reward
Mr.. Mahone for what they believe to

Republicans.
All of the Presidents nominations
were confirmed, except that OF Pay.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
View, Of Ex.seoretary Window.

WASHINGTON, October 29.-Nr. Win
dom said to day he hal given the sub
iect of civil service reform very careful
consideration during his brief stay in
the Treasury Department. The ques-
ton had been frequently discussed with
President Garfield, who was earnestly
in favor OF some practicable system
which would correct the evils OF the
present mode OF making appointments.
The plan to accomplish this had not
been completed when the President was
assassinated. Subsequently Secretary
WINDOW prepared the system applicable
to the Treasury Department, which
was ready to be promulgated.
HE only awaited the recovery
OF President Garfield to put it in opera
t on. The plan prepared by the ) 'crt'
tary was intended to relieve the 9resl'
dent and heads of departments from
pressure and importantly, and also 10
ford a fair opportunity for persons in
the respective states 10 present them
selves for appointment.
To do this it was proposed TO allow to
the States respectively, rs the law re-
ouires, the number OF appointments TO
which they would be seyerally entitled
in the Treasury Department; then to
appoint carefully selected committee OF
three in each State. whose duty il should
be TO meet once a year, at some con.
yenient place in the State, and
before wnom any one desiring TO
en,, the government service should
have the right to present himselfor her-
self for examination, such examination
TO be practical and relate to character,
experience and capacity OF applicant,
aud to the duties OF the position to
which an appointment is desired; said
eommittee to prepares list, graded ac-
cording to merit, OF those who pass ex-
animation, and forward the papers to
the head OF the department at Wash.
ington. From this examination Mr.: Win
dom believes persons should be selected
from those highest on the list, and only
TO be sent for when the State of which
they are residents should be entitled to
appointments.
1t was further proposed that, in max
ing these selections from eligible per
sons on the lists, soldiers or their
widows or children should have the
preference. The system proposed also
