| by gradual persistence and inheritance oil
abuse, If you please, has certainly brought
a state of things TO pass in which the official
power Of the Government, the official saia-
ries Of the country, are considered legiti-
mate influences in controlling the public
sentiment Of the country.
II you are to have the form of an election
without its substance If you are to have
the nominal right to recall power, but to
| have that very power used to prevent its
being recalled, then, / say to you, you have
destroyed the freedom of election, which lie
| our great safety, which tends to reform
abuses in peaceable manner, which creates
a revolution without the shedding of u drop
of blood, aud you have in my judgment
| weakened the very genius, and handspring of
American institutions.
do not believe this needed Civil Service
reform stops at the proposition of my friend
from Kentucky, although ! esteem that
highly, as to the mere matter of official
economy. If we find that officials have so
much money to give to elections, their
salaries should be shorn to legitimate re-
quirements. That is a point worth con-
sidering, but far more important than the
money, lar more important than the super
fluffy of salary or the gross amount OF the
salary, is the fact that you are using pub
lie power for party end, and that is not
safe.
Let there be an expression of popular dis
content with existing evils and then as the
expression OF approval or discomfort shall
follow SO representative men will accommo-
date themselves to the popular will. When
you are to take your official corps and array
them in a vast machine for the purpose of
continuing power in their party hands with
out regard to the changes of popular
opinion, then l say you have started
ators, are there not to-day strong reasons
why you of the present majority in this
chamber, and you who at this moment have
control of all three branches of the Federal
Government and we who have control of
none-are there not obvious. reasons why
this is an excellent opportunity for you to
join with us to prevent the discharge of men
for no other cause than for individual opin-
ion and for the mere fact that they do not
subscribe to party which may be against
their conscience or which may be against
their pecuniary interest?
1t is on that account that hope there will
not be obstruction and hope the Senator
from Maine will be content TO enlarge the
scope of this resolution If he thinks 1t to
one sided. l will vote with him to SO
enlarge it If he thinks it properly should be,
but trust he will not obstruct the passage
Of this resolution by introducing one OF a
wholly different character which think is
entirely aside. do not mean to say 1t is
useless, but meanto say that 1t is entirely
beside the obvious intent OF the original

especial correspondence of the Gazette.l
NEW CASTLE, Dec. 11.-Gloom is over
New Castle owing to the fact that on Satur-
day two of the largest manufacturing places
in the city closed operations for an indef-
mite period, thus throwing out ol employ
ment at least 100 workingmen. The estab-
ishments closed are the Riverside Rolling
Mil and the Triton Cotton Works. The
reason for the iron mill shutting down is
given ms the dullness in that particular
branch of the iron trade in which it was
engaged. The cotton mill wanted to make
reduction of l l per cer t. in wages during
the present depression in the market The
hands refused to accept the reduction and
struck, and it was deemed advisable to close
in preference to paying the regular wages.
Much excitement exists among the laboring
classes.

Croney,s SyInnafhizars.

To THE EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE; il
most remarkable thing tEat men pretend
ing TO be monitors OF pabllc opinion should
be so unguarded as to publicly express their
sympathy with criminal, and crilicise and
censure very proper and opportune ex
preston OF the chief justice made few days
ago, when the accused was about to be ar
aratgned for the murder he had perpetrated.
The censure OF the chief justice and sym
pathy for the criminal have been INDUCED
in both by the daily Republicans
and the Morning NeHs, while the
opinion of the wisest and best portion of the
community justify the remarks of the Chief
Justice, and regard them rs not only proper
but calculated to have great weight in de
terring the commission of such horrible
crimes as murder and rape that seem to
have become alarmingly prevalent of late Ia
this county. When "swift justice" and a
"high gallows" are meted out more rapidly
crimes will be less frequent.
