corkhill's Responsibility.

The convictions % Mason. the soldier who
attempted TO slay Gaitean, has evoked dis
cassion and ELECTED some facts very damaging
to the character Of District Attorney eorkhill.
Array discipline Is rigid, and offences are
pHuishefl more severely under military law
than under eisil The extremity Of Mason's
sentence has led TO inquiry upon The right Of
the military authorities to Try his ease, aaa
from the articles Of var il has been shown that
he should have been delivered 20 the author
ties Of the District Of Celambia for trial in
stead Of being tried BY a eours martial. Since
these facts have been brought out, General
Hancock, who commands the department.,
has written a letter IN which he says that he
considered Aaean's case one for the civil an
,horities to deal with. He directed General
Ayers, in command q Washington, before the
court nartiei wax called. to tarn the prisoner
over to the civil authorities for trial. bus Dis
srict Attorney Corkhill decided not to have
anything to do with i, saying il was one the
military authorities must dispose Of Gen-
Ayers reported Corkhilrs decision TO General
Hancock, Who thea ordered the trial BY court
martial.
cprhhill, then, Is responsible for any VIOLA
ton of the civil law, and shnald be dismissed
for ineompetsney or az uHxilhpsRess to per.
form his duties. 1.-THE civil authorizes refuse
10 paai1h such crimes by soldiers as are cog
ni1able bs the oiyil courts, then the military
nuthorities must.

A Proper View.

In speaking Of the rejection off number of
the Governor 5 appointees by the Senate, Pres
ident Williams holds that the Senate was right,
according to the Annapolis correspondent Of
the Baltimore Saa. The constitution says in
article ?, section 10, that the Governor .'shall
nominate, and by and with the advice and
consent Of the Senate, appoint 81 civil Off
GERS. &e. Mr.. Williams says he does not
know the meaning Of the word advise, # il
does not mean that the tWenty-six men in the
Senate are TO be- consulted as to the appoint
meuts by the Governor. So far as hs IS con
eerned. he had not been advised with concern.
Jag single appointment. The Senators from
Other COMMITTEES can say the same. In some IN
stances the Governor has made appointments,
ma only without eonsnlting the Senators and
REPRESENTATIVES, FROM the counties where the
appointments we're made, but in spite Of their
Recommendations and protest. He has sisteBed
10 and been guided BY those who are Denl-
eerats when it salts their purposes to act with
the parry, as IN the case Of the appointments
fss Baltimor= city. Such was his action re-
aarsing the appointments fir s.. Marys, Cal
vert, Cecil aud Kent, and several others.
Under these circumstances the whole party
must agree with Mr.. Williams that the Senate

Democratic party, and their deeapitaiion was

Rejected Nominations.


The Senate on Tuesday in executive session
rejected the nominations of Henry Seim and
Thomas j. McCosker for election supervisors
OF Baltimore city. They were both re .,orted
unfavorably by the committee on executive
nominations, and the vote of the Senate in
the case of Mr.. Seim was IL to and of Mr..
McCosker IA to r. Mr. Enoch Pratt, the
other supervisor, was laid over. There was
no objection to Mr.. Pratt in committee, though
he was not reported. DIR. Geo. H. Jones and
Z. L. Joyce, for tobacco inspectors, were re-
jected by vote of Is to 8, and the other in
spectors laid over. James Hodges, for direc-
tor in the Maryland penitenliary, was rejected
unanimously without division.
The Others rejected were George T. Ham
lin and Patrick Mullen, for inspectors of steam
boilers DIR. st. George w. Teackle, for state
vaccine agent; John Kearns, weigher of hay
and straw at northwestern scales; Dr. Frank
w. Germon, for coroner, and Joseph c. Boyd,
notary public, Baltimore city; John J. Dunn,
fourth ward r. H. Johns, eighth ward, and
George j. kries, fifteenth ward justices in
Baltimore and James c. Haviland, Justice of
the peace for Montgomery county. Senators
Bans, Hepbron, Lloyd, Bishop and Brattan
called on Gov. Hamilton before the executive
session and asked that the names of Messrs.
Hodges, Seim, McCosker, Jones and Joyce be
withdrawn, as there was trouble about their
confirmation. The Governor received the
committee very politely, but said he made the
appointments after due deliberation and con
sideration, and did not feel justified in with
drawing them, but would let the Senate take
such action as they might see fit.

sudden purincation.

Since the Republican party in Congress has
been strengthened BY the Repndiators Of fir-
einia. whose success the whole power Of the
Republican Administration at Washington
lent its energies TO secure, it is nov seeking TO
retrieve itself by getting upon the lofty plane
of maintaining public honor Dakota, or the
southern part Of that territory, is nov seeking
admission into the Union ass state. Yankton
eousts, the largest and most popuIons q the
counties IN the Territory, issued some $500
900 in bonds to aid railroad and then Fepu-
dated them. For this species Of dishonesty
senator Hale. Republican Senator from
Maine, catered protest against nakeia's adj
mission, asd announced that he would oppose
taking her into the sisterhDod Of states until
her record vas purged. Mr.. Hale is right,
but why sanction Reputation in a whole state
and express such indignation because single
county denies It's indebtedness.

Taking advantage Of the indignation and
sympathy sf the people, those rendering ser
vice to the late President during his illness,
death and burial have made very steep charges
changes all out Of proportion to the services
rendered or to the value Of articles furnished.
Congress Is asked TO pay the bills, and the
congressional committee to amdit the &C.
counts trusfeE the work to Representative
Page. Of California, as subcommittee. Mr..
Page, after examining the bills, aggregated
them in one Temp, and destroyed them in
order to avoid scandal. The press, however,
have gotten hold Of some matters in eonnee-
ton with the Presidents burial, and the con-
jemnation is very severe they are heaping
upon those responsible for them. In this
issue we publishedan article from the chicago
Tribune, and one from the New York Sun,
concerning the funeral train from Washing
ton to Cleveland. fthe statements are true,
instead Of solemn funeral cortege II was a

The proposed REIMBURSEMENT of the public
debt of the state of Virginia has an echo from
the city of Elizabeth, New Jersey, which is
fioundering under debt of So, 400, 900, much
of which was contracted fifteen years ago. A
committee Of eighteen citizens, appointed by
the mayor, has just agreed on a report which
recommends REIMBURSEMENT of the city
debt by the issuance of four per cent. bonds
on the basis Of settlement Of fifty cents ON the
dollar. This may not be altogether accepta-
BILE to the creditors, but it looks ike they
must take this or perhaps get nothing.

AT the 81. Patrick banquet in New York
last week Gen. Grant said it was one Of the
grand features Of America that there was no
country ON earth that offered better chance
for men to lift themselves upward if they had
the stamina and inherent merit to raise them
selves IN the world. The General should
have said, also, that some without merit had
raised themselves from avery low plane to
high positions without merit, and insianced
his own career as an example.

Preparing HOrseradish.

A grower of horseradish for the mar
ket gives the following directions for
preparing if for sale: The roots, which
are grown from 'setsn started early
in the spring, come to maturity and are
dug in the month of November to be
stored for winter use. AT the time OF
digging the main root is freed from all
smaller ones, and the SMALL roots are
covered for "sets'' again in the spring.
The largest roots are what may be
called "spragly." Everything intended
for grinding is covered in sand in a
basement cellar to prevent willing, and
is dug out in quantities as wanted. 1t is
first washed, then scraped and pared
clean, and the crowns cut Off These
are thrown away, as they are of no value
for producing new plants. The grind.
ing or grating is done on a perforated
tin cylinder that turns in close wooden
box which stands about breast high.
The motion is produced by the foot in
the same way that lathe or grindstone
is turned. As the ground root soon
loses its white color in the air, small
quantity only can be ground at time.
This is mixed with vinegar and put al
once into bottles and corked tightly.
The bottles are afterward sealed by
dipping the cork in prepared wax.
The labelling completes the work. 1t i:
only prepared as fast as sold. Keeping
the radish in a dark, cool place will
not keep the pure root from losing its
strong taste; and bottle of the. pre-
pared root left to stand open must bt
freshly ground to be good. The un
ground roots retain their full strength
as long as they remain perfectly covered
from the air with sand. Freezing doe
not hurt them.
