much greater than for some time and packers as

a general feeling that prices viii go higher.

survivors were taken to the University
building at Freidburg, where they were
carefully attended to. Some Of the dead
were mutilated beyond recognition. 1t
appears that the train was overtaken BY
a heavey storm Of wind and rain. One
account ascribes the disaster to the
washing away of part of the embank-

Al terrific contest between d hawk and
q black snake occurred on Sunday near
Norwhich. which resulted in the death Of
both the reptile and the fowl of the air.
The hawk swooped down upon the
black snake. no doubt in anticipation Of
d asumptuous feast. but the snake would
not have ii, and made fight, TIE hawk
buried his talons in the body of the rep
tile near the middle, and also seized it By
the head with his beak. The snake re-
sisting, coiled its great length around the
hawk, completely pinioning it, wings,
thus preventing Il from flying away. DR..
Painter, Of Norwich, who was riding
along the road. discovered the deadly en-
counter, and alighting took from his
apill- bags bottle OF chloroform and
paralyzed both with the drug. They
died in each others loving embrace, and
the doctor has preserved them IN that
position. The snake measured six feet

It was midnight's holy hour. Cover
nor Foster sat over the ice cooler. and
stirred nervously glass of sugar and
water. Tears trickled down his cheeks
as he read the following account OF Presi-
dent Arthur's reception at Newport:
aThe festivities were kept up until;a
late hour. The banquet at midnight was
an elegrant affair, and fully In keeping
with the distinguished ladies and gentle
men present. The ladies were lavishIy
attired. Diamonds and jewels sparkled
on all sides. Choice wines produced, and
the health Of the President drunk by
young and old Of both sexes.
And then he looked at the almanac and
sadly figured out that there were just
six weeks before he would dare enjoy
such high jinks as that.

Fifteen Hundred and Ninety New or
fees.

The prohigate Congress at the late sess-
ion created fifteen hundred and ninety
new offices, among which several we're
revived. like the Assistant Secretaries OF
War and Of the Navy, that had been
abolished as superhuous at the close Of
the rebellion. This enormous increase OF
patronage was made principally to salts
fy the constant and pressing demands OF
politicians.
Pretexts of various kinds were manu-
factured rs an excuse for such scanda-
lous prodigality. Among others, it was
alleged that pension claims would be rap
idly advanced and decided by an addi-
ticnal force. Twelve hundred and ten
clerks were given to the PensiouIB Bureau.
to the Adjutant- General, and to the
Surgeon-G General for this purpose,
These raw recruits have all TO be ed
ucated in the duties 10 which they are
assigned, and instructors have been ap-
pointed to teach them the rudimenfs OF
official routine. Many OF them are hope
lessly incompetent, as were others in the
increase made last year for the same pro-
fessed purpose. In this latter case the
teachers were incumbents who were dis
placed by ignorant successors that. were
not more fit for service to-day than they
roiginaily were. rs
These appointments and all others are
controlled by politics. Even in the scien-
tific divisions, where technical knowI-
edge is essential to successful administra-
tion, partisan influence claims ~recogni-
tion, asserts authority, and in nine cases
out of ten prevails over merit, however
conspicuous.
And now, after creating this army Sf
ofice-holders. it is found no provision
was made for housing them properly.
They actually stand in the way of each
other in the different bureaus, and can
not be seated for want of desk room. In
order to keep up appearances some OF
them are detailed for night service, to-
take the places of Others who occupy the
seats during the day. But this is a mere
sham, invented to cover the pay of clerks
who have nothing to do, and who were
appointed as reward for political SER
vice alone.
Sometimes this sort of patronage is
sold by the influence which stands be-
hind it. Office brokerage is said to be a
regular business at Washington, and the
organs contain daily advertisements offer
ing liberal premiums for situations in the
different departments, the bounty being
graduated by the value Of the place.
This traffic could not be carried Land
certainly could not be prosperous. IL
there was not collusion between the insi-
ders and the outsiders. The actual and
the prospective vacancies, the causes for
removal, and the opportunities for ad-
mission, straight and crooked, are known
better to the appointment clerks than TO
the Secretaries themselves. This infor-
nation has merchantable value, and it
is not unfrequently sold to brokers, to
applicants, and to others interested in
getting ii quickly. The condition OF a
public service subject to this corrupting
contamination must be deplorably bad.
