easy doubts about the actual condition
Of his wound. 1t had been described as
nearly healed, but on Friday it opened 10
a great depth, flexible rubber tube be-

ute the recent relapse to the undiscovered
state Of the wound. However he seems
to be holding his own.

Commissioner Of Pensions DUDLEY
is considering the sdvisability Of rec
ommending to Congress the passage
Of a new pension act. The law con-
templated will provide for the pension
ing Of all Union Soldiers who were in
rebel prisons for any length of time
and suffered the horrors Of Anderson
vile, Belle Isle and Salisbury. The
commissioner holds that the con-
stitution of many men were wrecked,
and that more injury to their useful
ness was inflicted in thousands Of
cases by the starvation Of the prison
pen than by service in the field or
wound 10 battle. He is now making
an Investigation to determine approx
imately how many names such an act
would add to the pension rolls, and
what it would cost the Government
annually should it 60 into effect.
Upon the result Of this inquiry will
depend somewhat the nature Of his
recommendations.

worth looking into by those who pre-
pose attempting 10 reform the spoils
system. 1t is all very well to legis-
late concerning appointments, but it
will be also well to try to lessen the
ofice-seeking mania by making public
Office little less desirable than at
present. We strongly suspect that the
best way to do this will be to require
hard work of those holding public
positions, for we notice that the Office
seekers do not consist of the men who
respond to an advertisement for some
one to do real, hard work.
New jersey should be allowed the
privilege of disposing of the villain
GUITEAU. The records show some
pretty severe sentences meeted out to

the following a death sentence OF a
negro named Caesar, for the murder
of Mary Wright, as given by the court
at Shrewsbury, N. IT,, Sept, 18th, 26th
and 9th, 1851, and published in the
August number of the New Jersey
Law Journal, having been copied
from the records at Freehold:
Therefore, the court doth adjudge
that thou, the said Caesar, shall return
to the place from whence thou contest
and from thence to the place Of ex-
ecutioD, where thy right hand shall
be cut off and be burned in the fire
before thine eyes; then thou shalt BIZ

dead, dead, dead, aud thy body hal
be cut down and burned to ashes in {
fire. So the lord have mercy on thy

The rival attractions at Linsley's and Stiles
Halls last evening drew out audiences of
about equal size, but neither one received the
support to which its merits would fairly en-
title it. Mr.. Campbell's lecture on "Tbe
French People and the French Republic was
of unusual interest, not only on account of
the lecturers well known literary ability, but
also from the fact that he spoke from per
sonal observation of the ways and customs
of the French. Social and business life in
France and America were contrasted, show
ing that their ways are not ours. The lecturer
had taken vivid interest in French politics,
having studied them carefully for many
years. In 1873 he made q memorandum In
his note book that if the Republic were then
established. it would continue to grow in
strength, owing to the fact that the young
men of France are all, or nearly all, Repub-
LEANS He pointed to the history of France
from that time to the present as showing the
fulf1lment of his prophecy. -

Last evening as John G. Baker came over
the bridge at nine o'clock with his elegant
new engine and palace cars he blew whis-
tie, the like of which was never before heard
by mortal ears. Then as the fiery monster
with flaming furnace and clouds of escaping
steam, exploding torpedoes like park of ar
tillery, drew slowly into the depot, low
murmuring whistle seemed to say, like the
giant in the Fairy book, "Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum.
Isn't it jolly, We know. I see two brides and
their happy grooms." Then old 81 standing
on the side track flashed his big eye face
tiously, whistling deep sounds which seemed
to escape from the q caverns of memory or
the desert of Sahara" as much as to say,
did two brides ever have such send off ?'
The response then came in toots from the
engine handsomely decorated with flags
q I'm only an engine, but then I'm 81 and
know a thing or two. Won't whisk these
brides off to New York" Soon far in the
distance the whistle could be heard, blowing
on every known key and proclaiming, ''rve
got them Miles and Miles away" Long may
they live and sterling good luck attend them
till they are old and gray.-Brfdgeport Stand
