WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPT. 10, 1882.

Now THAT Mr.. Dorsey has, for Il time,
escaped the penitentiary by the vote Of Il
democratic juryman who says he refused Il
bride of 5000 to convict him, and that of
the only negro on the jury, he may possibly
have the assurance to assume that he has
been acquitted, and resume his duties as
secretary Of the national republican eXecu-
tive committee, the place from which Mr.
Gorha,n, General Mahone's George" was
deposed for boiling the republican convcn-
tion of California. With Dorsey running
the national republican committee, Hubbell
the republican Congressional committee,
Malone the committee in Virginia and Dick
Harrington that in Delaware, the republi-
cans will muster Il strong force for the No
vember contest, but it will be composed of
those who haven't reason enough to perceive
that their own welfare depends upon the
prosperity of the country.

A very wicked man became converted,
and in course of time IL became his

he was very much embarrassed. This is
the substance of the prayer:
"0h, Lord, thou giver OF all good
things. look down with pity on poor
people. You are rich and can spare them
plenty to eat while on earth. Send
every one of them full barrel of -four,
plenty of lard and a side of bacon, a

Mr. Helm. of the Con grcssienal Record,
TO be Dismissed.

CASE OF DETEcTIvR MILLER-ThE MISSING SPENCER
Washington Special in N Y. Herald to-day.
The dismissal from government employ OF Mr..
NJ ID. Helm, In charge OF the Congressional Record,
1t is said, viii certainly be made this week. prob
ably Tomorrow. Mr.. Helm Is also the general
manager OF the Daily Critic, an evening paper
published here, and 1t is contender that his en-
ployment by the public printer has been contrary
to the spirit and purpose II not the letter. of that
section OF the Revised statutes which makes 1t a
felony for one occupying position OF trust under
the Public Printer to be interested, directly or
Indirectly, in the publication OF any newspaper.
This was pointed out in the HeI'dtdS editorial
day. repubiished here In THE EVENING STAR, which
edltorially says:
Helm there should be prompt dismissal from the gov
ernnent service of who is in the the
star route conspirators.
Dismissalkfrom government employ Is not usu-
ally accompanied by explanation, but 1t is under
stood Mr.. Helms case viii be the first under the
order of the PreSi lent that every employe OF the
government who directly or indirectly attempts to
impede the administration OF justice shall be re-
garied as officially delinquent and Immediately be
dismissed the service.
The removal OF Detective G. o. Miller was in
obedience to law OF the United States, It having
BEEN shown that he violated that section which
makes his dismissal imperative. There are others
whose employment the law does not so directly
reach. The Presidents order will, 1t is believed
reach all employees OF the government who still
exert their influence to embarrasS 1t in It's prose-
cution OF parties indicted for Of1enses against the
United States.
In regard to ex-senator Spencer, IL he fs In this
country he will be arrested and brought to WASH
ington by virtue OF the bench warrant already
issued. 1t is understood that his testimony, how
ever strong for the prosecution viii not be needed
for the conviction OF the defendants in the star
route case. OF which, 1t Is said, the government
counse! feel certain HIS arrest. however. will be
made II there is any skill In the methods now being
employed.
