pRECIPITATING A STRUGGLE.
III L GoAD.


The policy of Great Britain has al.
ways been VI energetic one. Blood
and treasure have had no estimate in
the balance, when the British lion was
en- rampant. Give and Hastings in
the East, with all their spoilations,
were but representatives of an aggres-
i've British diplomacy. 1t furnished
Frederick the Great With the sinews OF
war. 1t has had its diplomatic fingers
in every political pie slice the exis-
fence Of its policy. And most espec-
tally has she had her optics OF, and her
digits ready to grasp the falling power

rather strange that aBritish Admiral
should open fire upon a great city oc-
cnpied by thousands of citizens of other
nationalities than Great Britain.
Would it not have been better for Brit
ish diplomacy to have awaited a CON

taking the matter in hand and dictat-

WASHINGTON LETTER,

WASHINGTON, July "a, 1882.
Such a scramble as there now is for
Government appointments has never
been equaled before, except upon a
charge of Administration. 1t is al
most as great as that which made life
a burden to Gen. Garfield the first few
months after his inauguration, the diff
ference being thai the places now
sought are mostly of a lower grade
mere department clerkahips. The
chief cause of the rush just at this
time is the provisions made in the leg

crease in this office and in the Surgeon
Generals Office, which does some of
the work on pension claims, is to be

that nearly tile whole population of
Washington, with large reinforce
ments from the States, were making
"A hard fight for the places. IL is stated
that oyer 5000 applications have been
died With Secretary Teller, but the
chances Of most of these applicants
are mighty slim. The positions were
nearly all farmed out by Commission
er Dudley, in promises to members
of Congress, before the bill passed.
Add 10 these anxious souls the 1000
who have been seeking positions in the
Government Printing Office since Mr..
Rounds took charge Of it, and the us
