TIMES CHANGES.

During the present decade there has
been the silent working of a great change
going on in the far Eastern states. but more |
particularly in New England. The pass
ing of the stage of vigorous action, through |
death and age, of many of those who were |
essentially the pioneers of its manufac
turing activities, whom the pioneer agri-
culturists and first generation thereof had
already preceded, and the filing of their
places IN great measure with
their descendants, who, unlike their faith
ers, climbed not to competency and sue
cess from the elementary detail of their
respective manufacture. direct from day
wages at the forge and anvil, the spinning
frame and the loom, ETC., has given an en-
tirely new complexion to commercial life
! and business in those states.
In this succession is palpably revealed
/ the fact that our great characters in bust
ness, as we'll as in the professions and
craftsmanship, are not brought up on rich
cream, ready skinned and filling over
flowing pans, but that the founders of sue
cess in all ages, like Romulus and Remus,
the founders of ancient Rome, are gener-
ally sucked by the wolf of
adverse circumstances, or the leanest
goat of toll and poverty.
This state of sudden elevation of infe-
rior minds to important stations is the
development of a species of snobbery and
superiority which is of the most contempt
bic character, and SO disgusting as to make
much unpleasantness in many localities,
especially in those sections wherein had
existed in the former years an aristocracy
} founded on descent and intellectual sups-
, riority, which is aped with inesse by
this class of individuals as thoroughly as
! the mischievious monkey initiated
) the shaving additions of his master
, The result is, except as occasionally a
gHasping intellect from the mountains de-
scends into the vallies and by an inborr
native shrewdness undermines one Of
, these manufacturing princes by entail
there is not hardly a shadow of a chance
for a young man of the brotherhood Of
: their fathers, possessing skill, will, intelli-
gence and industry, to pierce the crust of
circumstances and develop into promi

his ambition.
This state of things, the departure tt

there will grow up sentiment of respect

The country is entering. upon an expert

enter upon the discharge of duties created
by that law. There are plenty to doubt
and plenty to carp, and it has been real
lied that the way is beset
with perplexities and difficult
ties, but if the executive
OF the nation places the weight of his po-
sition and action in sympathy with the
work, the staff of accomplishment is
placed in the hands of the active friends

A LADY teacher at Pawtucket, Rhode
Island, whipped whole school, in sections,
as Sothern used to say. One of the pupils
whistled, and none of the ffty-eight schol-
ars would tell on the culprit. So the teach
er administered to ffty-seven of them five
blows apiece with rattan, the fifty-eighth
girl preferring to be turned out instead
of being whipped, and still that teacher
does not know who whistled. 1t was prob
ably the ffty-eighth girl who whistled.
Grit is always cropping out when we

in the convention and half that number in
the electoral college. He may be safely
left out of the calculations. There are be-
sides these Ben Harrison, of Indiana,
Logan and Lincoln, of Illinois, Allison. of
Iowa, Malone, of Virginia, and Window,
late of Minnesota, all of whom are more
or less talked of in connection with the
Office.
Numerous as are the Republican aspir-
ants, those on the Democratic side far out
number them. Indeed, the list comprises
nearly every Democrat of prominence from
Maine to California. Hancock, Tilden,
Cleveland, Pendleton, Thurman, Bayard,
Mcdonald, Hewitt, Hendricks, Justice
Field, Mcclellan, and many others are
numbered in the list. The three who
have already. been before the people
as candidates stand, perhaps, the
worst show of the lot. Justice Field, ex-
Senator Mcdonald, Senator Pendleton and
Gov. Cleveland are decidedly the
most prominent. The late named
gentleman is chiefly noted for
the extraordinary run he made
last fall against Secretary Folger. He
may destroy his chances entirely before
the date of the convention, and it will hard
| ly do to lay much store by him until he
shall have proved himself an efficient gov
ernor. Justice Field, of the supreme court,
is a man of great shrewdness and legal
acumen, and it is more than suspected that
his recent dissenting opinions on ques-
tions involving the right of states were
dictated in large measure by desire to
place himself before the country as cham
pion of the rights of the states and in OPP
position to the encroachments OF, the fed
eral power upon them. Mr.. Pendleton re-
lies to a large extent on his record as g
civil service reformer. His bill which re

the civil service. 1t was unquestionabl!

President Arthur's appointment of MIR.
Wyman 70 the position of Treasurer of the
United States was quite a surprise after
all, but it is no less to be commended for
that reason. The appointment of the late
occupant of the position, Mr.. Gilfllap, Twas
q political one, pure and simple. A score
or more of ex-congressmen wanted the
place. Secretary Folger was rather
DESTROYS than otherwise, that
Mr.. Wyman should not be ap
pointed. In making the appointment
therefore, the president was uninfuenced
by political precedent and pressure and
not controlled by the prejudioes of the
secretary of the treasury. The placing of
Wyman in the position was a promotion
directly in the line of civil service reform.
and is the more creditable to the president.
as he was not under any legal or other OBJ
legation to make the appointment under
the standard.
Wyman entered the Office of the treasu-
rsr many years ago az an Office boy, and
because he had proven capable
and honest he had passed from
one position to another, until at this time
he was assistant treasurer. His twenty
years experience in the Office rendered
him the best equipped of any man to oc
cupy the position as its executive head
Since Gilfllan resigned to go to New York
at larger salary, he has been showered
with>a most remarkable amount of praise
which if believed, would prove he was the
only man in the country at all competent
to discharge the duties of the treasurer:
Office. But all the time GilfilIan was tn,

The opportunity which came to the
president to exhibit his respect

BEFORE he entered public life, and while
a teacher at Hiram, President Garfield
was one of the board of teachers examin-
ers for the county in which he lived. In
summing up the qualifications of a teacher
he SAID he allowed forty per cent for
''gumption," that is, if he saw the appli-
pIicant understood the principles and had
the faculty of making them clear to the
minds of pupils he allowed something for
defects in technicalities. The good sense
of this position requires no ampliication.

How long viii you remain, old Mississip,
Enshrowdedin old winters lev clip?
1t really seems as if you thought YOU oughter !,
Too long embargo rapid and saltwater.
AS you've resisted full week of solar heating,s
Must you have driving rains or tempest beating
To pierce your more than customary armor,
To much delight the roustabout and mariner?
Oh cake up quickly, king of rivers navigable-
And longest far OF inland waters travelable,
And though from bluff to bluff your waves 90

Give us all clear from Orleans to Ft. Smelling.

FOR twenty-five successive years the
Hon. VIM. d. Kelly, of Philadelphia, has
been a member of the House of Represen-
tatives, and he is now sixty nine years of
age. When ne entered public life he was
poor man and it is evidence of the recti-
tude of his public career that he is poor
man still. Whatever may be thought or
said of his idiosyncrasies as a politician
and a publicist, he is to, be respected by all
men for his clean hands, and we believe il
is true that there is no public
man now living, who has
remained in congress for any
considerable period, having entered il
poor, of whom this can with truth be said
The case of Judge Kelly shows plain
enough, if there were no other proofs, that
the men who have grown rich in congress
have not gotten their riches honestly. Il
is the reported intention that wealthy con
stituents of Judge Kelly will shortly Ipre-
sent him with the means to pay an encUm-
brance on his Philadelphia property, with {
surplus that will insure him against pc
cuniary necessity in his infrm and declin
ing years.
