could hardly have INDUCED in much re-
lection before it said of ex-senator Sar-
gent. & There is no particular reason
why he should not be sent us minister to
Berlin, For in the same paragraph it
avOws his unfitness for Il cabinet
Office and expresses Il sense of
relief that he has been sent to place
where he can do less harm to the ad-
ministration. This implies Il very low
political view of the matter. Tie thing
in his record which make Sargent
unfit fox Il cabinet place make
him unfit for appointment as our
representative to one of the first powers
of Europe, ard that one a government
with which our relations are more init.
mate and important than any other ex-
cept England. Previous administrations
have recognized this in sending such
men as Geo. Bancroft, Andrew D. White
aud Bayard Taylor, scholars rather than
politicians, on the German mission and
the descent from them to Sargent is ell
tirely too sudden. He may not do the
same harm to the administration as would
have come to it by his jobbery in the in.
terror department, but his appointment,
after the popular rejection of his name
for Il home office, will do us no credit
abroad. The French government has
just sent us minister who is in dis
grace at home, and the press has been
disposed to resent his coming as an
affront to our national dignity. What
shall be said of an administration which,
having first tested the popular senti-
ment regarding mans fitness for a
minor cabinet place and having him
scornfully rejected, appoints him to a
first-class foreign mission? Luckily for
him Sargent's nomination is coupled
with another of such sensational inter-
est that in its discussion the unfitEeSs Of
the new German minister is apt to be
overlooked.
THERE are several things touching Il
better administration of our municipal
affairs which will probably not he effect
cd until the people of Lancaster see the
wisdom Of securing an entirely non-
partisan city government. The present
ward distristing of the city, devised in
the first place for purely partisan pur-
poses, is a gross serrymander, which
should he corrected in the interest of a
fair representation. The Fifth ward,
which at the last election polled 537
votes for mayor, and is steadily grow
ing, has only two common council
men, while the First ward, which
only polled 5l1, has four common
cOuncilmen. or more than double
the same ratio Of rcpreS Scntation. The
Eighth ward, with 795 voters, and the
Sixth with $50, have each the same rep
rescntation as the Third, with SO much
smaller territory and only polling 5Sl
votes. Each one Of the wards has too
many votes to be cast at one precinct.
\ correction of these evils and a change
in the law which requires the mayor TO
appoint the econstables-elect to the police
force are among many matters which
ought to be remedied by the concurrence
of all good citizens in a scheme for nom
partisan local government.
