BRUTAL CASE OF ABANDONMENT. Susan
Graw, aged 9 years, suffering with sRall-p pox
and nearly frozen, was found lying in an open
yard of "a house in South Baltimore early
Friday morning. The case was at once re-
ported TO the Health Office, and when In
spectnr Brown reached the scene he found
the child lying prone upon its back and near
ly naked, its only covering being few filthy
rags. The ground was frozen hard, while
under and around the child were several
pools of water covered with ice. The child
benumbed and unable to utter a word, was
placed in the ambulance and taken to the
Quarantine Hospital II was afterwaId d
learned that the mother of the child, who
lives in the n neighborhood, on discovering that
the child had the smallpox, sent her out in
the cold to find shelter wherever she could.
and it is thought that the child wandered
about until, benumbed BY the cold, she en-
tered the yard to seek shelter, but, fearing to
ask admission to the house, tainted from ex-
posture. The mother, on being told of the
case, said that she "had no time to fool with
her," that she "had place out at service
which paid her better than looking after a
child with the small pOx." The Health
Commissioners will prosecute the mother to
the full extent of the law. te--

ONE Of the greatest attractions for
strangers who visit Washington Is a
colored Catholic church, one Of the most
costly in the city, and resting upon asol-
i'd financial basis. The choir, all the
singers being colored, is regarded by the
best judges as equal to that of any other
in any city in the country and enjoys a
high reputation for its artistic and ad-
mirable manner of rendering the most
elaborate Masses. Il is the custom of
visitors from all parts Of the Union
when in Washington, to go to this
church on Sunday evening, TO hear the
singing Of vespers, which is said to be
unsurpassed anywhere. The church is
a great pet Of the Archbishop of Balti-
more. who takes a deep interest in the
development and religious advancement
OF the colOTed race.

We print in another part Of our paper

been a regular and careful reader of the
Post for many, very many years, and the
conviction is forced upon US that the
older il grows the better it becomes.
There is never any difficulty in telling
its position on any question of public in
terest, for the reason that it never balks
or hedges, but speaks out boldly and
fearlessly in favor of what it deems to
be just and true, The Post was power
in Western Pennsylvania in the late
campaign, and the value Of its services
is properly appreciated by the Demo
cracy OF the entire State. No Demo
crat who can afford it, and who 50 poor
that he cannot, ought to enter upon the
new year without first becoming a sub
scriber to the Weekly Post.

IT has often been conjectured, but
never accurately known, how much
mouey Stephen w. Dorsey disbursed in
Indiana in 1880 in order to carry the
election for the Republican State ticket
in October, and thus pave the way for
Garfield's election in November Dor
sey himself saw fit one day last week to
simplify the matter in an interview with
a newspaper reporter. He was asked,
How much money was used by your
special committee in Indiana ?'' His
answer was, Il think lite over $780,
OO0, s" This fund was raised in Phila-
delphia and New York at the instance
of that Christian Statesman John
Welch, late Minister to England, and
was literally subscribed to by Levi P.
Morton, a rich banker of New York,
who was rewarded by Garfield with the
American mission to France-a position
which he still holds. Dorsey also stated
in the interview referred to that to car
ry New York for Garfield required 'just
about four times as much as in Indiana
or, in other words about million and a
half. He said in addition that both
Garfield and Arthur knew perfectly
we'll about how it was intended to carry
Indiana and New York, and that Gar
field went with Blaine to the celebrated
conference at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
in New York City, just after the disas-
trous result of the Maine election, in the
early part of September, at which the
subject of how to carry the two States
named was fully discussed. GaTfield's
admirers are now trying to raise money
! to erect an enduring monument to his
memory, and if they succeed the friends
cf Stephen w. Dorsey, after he ''shuf-
/ hes off this mortal coil, ought TO have
one put up alongside of it. LET jus.
tice be done though the heavens should

A REPUBLICAN paper makes the
statement that ''seven BlaineCluOs were
organized in this State last week ?' 1t
is not long since Blaine made the posi-
tive announcement through the press,
that in no possible event would he con-
sent to become a candidate for. .theR Repub-
lican nOmination for President in 1884.
In spite, however, of his own declara-
tion. his friends and admirers have an
undoubted right to form Blaine Clubs
in this and every other State, if that
sort of amusement affords them any
pleasure, as is presumably the case. OF
all the political delusions of the day un-
der some one of which men in both par
ties delight to labor, the one that looks
to the time when James G.. Blaine will
be elected to the Presidency is the great
est and the most preposterous, Since
his contest with Grant at the Chicago
convention, in 1880, the chances that he
will ever reach the goal OF his ambition
have been growing small by degrees and
beautifully less, Blaine will never be
President any more than Roscoe Conk'
ling or John Sherman.

STEPHEN W. DORSEY, of StaT-route
fame, expresses himself with much vig-

the public men of the day. To news
paper reporter he said last week, that

Veagh, els a physical, moral and men,
al dyspeptic. Everything and everybody
is green to him except himself, and he

putable a person to be discussed by de-
cent persons in a decent journal. His
beastly drunkenness and coarse profan-
ity is a curse to the department of which
he is head" This Is rough on Brews-
ter, who regards himself as the Chester
field, as well as the glass of fashion and

THE Committee on Postodices in the
lower branch of Congress on Friday last
reported a bill reducing the ordinary
letter postage from three to two cents,
and no doubt is expressed at Washing
ton about its passage during the present
session. According to the report Of the
Postmaster General, the receipts of the
department for The last fiscal year ex-
ceeded the disbursements nearly mil
lion and q half OF dollars, which IS the
first time in thirty-one years that tile
treasury has not been called upon to sup
ply a deficiency. The department, there
fore, being now more than self-sustain-
ing, the time for a reduction in letter
postage has come, and the appropriate
committee in the House has recognized
the fact by the prompt action it has Ia.
ken in regard to it.

CHARLES n. SHELLEY, a Democrat
lc member of Congress from Alabama,
don't seem to have much Of a conscience
has shown, in fact, that he has none
at all. At the last session his seat was
contested by ]. Q. Smith, who died in
April, 1881, before the contest between
them had been determined. The final
result of it was that Shelley's seat was
declared vacant. At the November
election Shelley was elected for the un-
expired term, which means the present
three months session, and he now in
sists that he is entitled to pay from the
date Of Smiths death, although he has
received pay for two months of the time.
This is simply another instance of the
result Of a contested seat in Congress,
which is that both the contestant and
seated member are ultimately paid the
full salary, thus making it profitable for
some men to get a nomination and then
be defeated.

THERE is an encouraging prospect
that the present Congress will enact a
law that will tear up by the roots the
collection of all money from govern
ment employees for political purposes.
A bill reported a few days ago to the
Senate makes it a crime. with a severe
penalty attached, for any person to en-
ter a public building, for the purpose of
levying contributions or assessments
from clerks or other employees. The
shameless operations OF Hubbell's Con-
gressiOnal Committee during the recent
campaign, as well as the brazen impu-
dence Of Malone in his daily visits TO
the different departments, intent upon
the political assessment robbery bywhich
he sought to bolster up his infamous
cause in Virginia, were disgraceful to
the country, aud if the purity of the
ballot-box. upon which the very exist
ence Of the Republic mainly depends, is
to be preserved, the collection Of money
for coTrUpt purposes must be arrested
with q vigorous and determined hand.

ACCORDING TO the Lancaster Inteli-

for services as librarian, recess Decem-

less way the peoples money is spent at
Harrisburg, and it would be mere mat
ter of conjecture how much of the aggre
gate of these items, over and above his
salary, found its way into Delaney:
pockets. Delaney's diversified occupa'
tions will be materially curtailed, we
hope, before the adjournment of the

GENERAL TERRY, who is now sta
toned at Fort Smelling, Minnesota, was
one Of the three officers VINO composed
the Military Board appointed by Presi-
dent Hayes to review the case OF Fitz
John Porter. and it will be remembered
that in the light of the new evidence
laid before the Board by General Por-
ter's counsel, it completely reversed the
finding of the Court martial that had
convicted Porter nearly twenty yeafs
AGO. 1t was this new evidence adduced
before the Board, and its report to the
President based upon 1t, that led Grant
TO make q thorough investigation of the
case. and afterwards address letter to
President Arthur, in which he frankly
acknowledged the great injustice he had
done to Porter during nineteen years,
and expressed his firm and undoubted
belief IN his Innocence. Gen. Terry bav-
ing read Gen. Grants article in the Por-
ter case in the December number Of the
North Americun ReUieto, has addressed a
letter to him, dated November 10th, Of
which the following is an extract
"As perhaps you may know, once, like
youl self, believed Porter to be guilty. l be-
lieved that he had committed crime so great
that mere human law could provide no ade-
quate punishment for it. But when it be-
came my duty to examine into the case care
fully l found that / had grossly erred. /
found that instead of being a criminal he
was a martyr.
80 believing it is a source of very great
satisfaction TO me that 1 have borne some
small part in his vindication.
Looking back over the wears that have
elapsed Stree / entered the military service,
nothing gives me so much pleasure than the
fact that have had some part In the vindi-
cation, and I can think OF nothing In the fu-
ture which would be so grateful to me as to
be able to do something more in behalf of
one who has suffered so grievOusly and so
unjustly. While l feel thus, you may imag
inc the gratatificatiou with which l find that
the opinion which | now entertain, that
what l believe to be the cause of truth, of
right and Of justice is 80 strongly supported
by yourself, and you will pardon me, am
sure, for expressing to you my feelings"

The San Diego (Cal.) Sun says that the
horseshoer employed by Henry Roster, at his
blacksmith shop on street made discovery
the other day which, though veuched for by
the most responsible parties, seems almost
impossible of belief. A staid old family nag
belonging to William J Torres, was brought to
the shop to be reshod. The boots had grown
very long, leaving hollow grooves beneath
their outer rims. On cutting away this she'll
to make foundation for the shoe hole was
noticed underneath and the attention of Mr..
Roster was called to it, At length what was
their astonishment TO hnd six young living
mice costly nestled within the hollow disc.
How they got there so safely Is question.

GIVE NEWSPAPER READERS A CHANCE.
While proposing to reduce the letter pos
tage on letters to cents, would it not be
well to take turn at newspaper postage ?
1t is a fact that express companies carry
newspapers cheaper than they can be sent
through the mails, and that, too, while pay
ing more for railroad service than the gov
ernment. Give newspaper readers chance.
