Garfield and Dorsey.

The New York Herald of yesterday devotes
several columns to the publication of letters
written by the late President GARFIELD to
ex-senator DORSEY pending and after the
campaign of 1850. OF course the letters were
given out by Mr.. DORSEY. Some weeks
ago, when DORSEY gave to the pub
lie copies of several letters which
he had written Gen. GARFIELD, some
papers disputed the genuineness of the letters
followed with insinuations and assertions that
GARFIELD never recognized DORSEY to the
extent of occupying time to correspond
with him. OF course this was foolish
ness. 1t will not be denied, and il
denied, the publications in yesterdays Her
aid furnish the proof that the late president
was on quito intimate terms with Mr.. Dor.
sEY. There was no reason why he should not
have been Mt the time the letters were writ
ten. Mr.. DORSEY was the secretary of a com
mittee which had carried on campaign that
had resulted in Gen. GARTIELDs election
His services were recognized by republicans
of all factions, and for men or journals t.
deny it now for any purpose is the sheeres
nonsense. What Mr.. DoRsEY's purpose in pub
fishing the letters may be has nothing to d,
with the relations which existed between him
self and Gen. GARFIELD. This close intimac,
was known to all men who had knowledge
of the great campaign which resulted il
victory for GARFIELD; and to none wa
this fact better known than to som
of the men who have since hi
death assumed the guardianship of the mem
ory of the dead president. The very mel
who now cry out the loudest against politica
tactics similar to those employed in tina
campaign were active participants in ant
indorsers of the policy then pursue,
by DORSEY, HUBBELL, and others, and non
indorsed the Dorsey -HUBBELL tactics NOR
completely than did Gen. GARFIELD himself
If there ever were any doubts in the publi
mind as to the relations existing betweel
| Gen. GARFIELD and Mr.. DORSEY, the Herald
publication will certainly remove them.

Thrrc Imnorinnt Gtens

A republican triumph is quite within the
grasp of the present congress, The recon-
mendations in the Presidents message sound
the keynote of success. 1t may not be, and
doubtless is not, practicable to carry out those
suggestions in every detail in so short a ses-
sion, but the country will recognize and ap-
preciate the difficulties of the situation if an
honest effort is made to compass the diff
culties as far as possible, Congress has al
ready taken three important steps which, if
completed, will make this session stand
out in bold relief in the history of
the reform legislation of the republic,
These three steps are the abolition of all in
ternal revenue taxation excepting on liquors
possibly retaining tobacco on revised scale
second, the adoption, substantially, of the
schedule of imposts reported by the tariff
commissions and third, civil service law.
These are the chief measures in the public es-
timaton now. To omit any one of these will
be n responsibility which this congress and
the republican party cannot afford to assume
neglect of the material interests of the coun'

Tbe Eourteenth Amcnlmopt.

To-day will be commenced three days ar
gument in the supreme court in a railway tax
case, which will involve discussion of the
scope of the fourteenth amendment to the con-
stitution of the United States. The claim is
set up by the Central Pacific railway company
of California that an attempt has been
made in that state to apply differ
ent rule of assessment to the company IS
property than that applied to the owners of
other property, and that this is in violation OF
the equality of rights guaranteed by the four
teenth amendment. For the state Attorney
General HART and Judge RHODES will appear,
and for the company ex-Chief Justice SAN
DERsoN, Senator EDMUNDs, and ex-senator
CoNKLING. The fact that the two last
named gentlemen were members of the SEN
ate and of the judiciary committee of that
body when the amendment in question was
proposed will invest their arguments ON the
subject with especial interest. The amend.
ment is a new magma chartd, and its construc-
tion from time to time, as questions arise un'
der it, is of the first importance.

try which would greatly imperil the republi-
can party at the polls next autumn.
At the same time it does not follow that
the foregoing is the only legislation needed
The three measures we have referred to are
especially prominent in public thought
There are other measures, as bankrupt law,
the postal savings-bank, reduction of letter
postage, and increase of merchandise postage
and variousitems usually embraced in the ap-
preparation bills, as we'll as other important
measures, all demanding attention. But the
three measures now uppermost in public
thought demand the first attention ofcmgress
and it is u happy augury for the country that
these three are now unexpectedly advanced
in committees, as well as discussion in open
house, and are likely to be matured at an
early day of the session.

The seventy-fifth birthday of the poet
WHITTIER was the occasion of many deserved
congratulations. OF all Americans who have
striven to cultivate high aspirations among
his countrymen we count WHITTIER as the
noblest. He has been the bard of freedom,
and in his old age he has not turned cynic, as
has his old compeer, LOWELL. Ever tender
and true, he has also been stalwart and heroic.
We hope he may live to other birthdays and
that on each one he may see the country
further advanced toward the higher plane
which it has ever been his work of love to
contend for.

year after JAcKsoN's Inauguration fifteen
hundred changes were made in the civil
service. 1t is therefore an exceedingly
irksomc task for an ambitious bourbon to
contemplate with complaccucy proposition
to retain republicans in Office in the event of
democratic sue cess in the next presidential
election. "To he or not to be " a civil service
roformer is problem too profound for ordi-

The Providence Press bluntly remarks that
president Arthur has not made one political
mistake since election" To this we move an
amendment: He has made no mistakes the
people can reasonably find fault with in his
purely political policy. 1t is nevertheless a
fact that the hypercritioal malcontents and
sorchcads have protested that he has not al
vested in him to suit them. But the figures
show that he has made less removals and ap-
pointments proportionately, than any of his
