Dividing Up the SpoIls.

There is not very serious disproportion
in the distribution of clerkships aud other
places smong the States where the Repub-
licsn psrty is strong. New York aud 0 lio
seem to have a little in excess OF their
quotas, but the excess is not great. llli-
nois does not get quite its share. Colorado
and Indiana have a little more than be
longs to them, but the personal equation
must be expected, and the head OF the de-
partmeut is from one OF these States, while
the head Of the largest bureau in the de-
pertinent is from the other. What will at
once strike the reader as surprising is the
number Of appointments made from Mary
land, Virginia and the District OF Colum-
bis, especially the latter. There 10 q
natural explanation for this. In the
first place, 8 large number OF the EN-.
ployes are janitors, watchmen, scrubbsrs,
packers, laborers, messengers, etc. The jobs
are Daturally given to people near by, that
is, to residents of the district and the ad-
Joining part of Maryland and Virginia.
People do not come 10 Washington from
remote parts OF the country 10 get menih
en- ployment The other consideration IS
that the solidly Democratic Southern
States do not get their quotas, and the
shares that would 90 to them on an eq1its-
bic arrangement go 10 the neighborhooi OF
the capital; as the South has No political
reasons TO urge for Office the places are
disposed Of for personal reasons TO people
whom Congressman get acquainted with
here. Besides all this, there il. Of course,
an advantage in being on or near the
ground when vacancies occur. IL might
be said still further, that nearly everybody
IN the district came here from some one OF
the States. 20 that appointments from the
district are scarcely more than spPoint'
ments at large.

TWO CHARLESTON CHAPTERS.

Special to he Register.
CHARLESTON, September 10.-The inter
view which recently took place here be-
tween two well known river pilots was OF
an exciting nature, and has caused quite
ripple OF Excitement and gossip throu shout
the large circle of thti acquaintance, and
Just what the future results will be is hard
TO foreteil.
Capt. Billy Wright and Capt. Waiter
Thacker met on KanaWha street iu front of
Boggs' drug store. Wright drew a revolver
and presented raw hide Of good size, and
interrogated Capt. T. as to which OF the
two he would prefer. 1t seems that the
latter did not express his preference as
promptly as his friend(?) thought he
should, and he proceed ed to administer q
dose of the rawhide in heavy blows, quick
ly laid an, but the interference of the
brief one and perhaps prevented a bloody
fight. All sorts of rumors are afloat as TO
the causes which led to the bad blood, but
il is generally believed that there is a wo.
man at the bottom of the trouble.
Another but more serious encounter took
place between two other we'll known citi-
zens few days ago. II is alleged that one
VIM. Gilleland insulted, at her home, the
wife of Robert Reynolds, who, on learning
the fact, hunted up the offender and pro-
ceeded to administer stern justice by way
OF well directed blows 1t was not long
before il was discovered that the two were
pretty we'll matched and considerable
ground was covered before the two men
were parted, both being pretty badly pun
ished.

distinguished preacher, the eloquent ora.
tor, will lecture in Market hall, st. Paul,
next Wednesday evening, August 15. His
unique subject big Blunders," will afford
entertainment, amusement and instruc-

endowments, of such copious use of Ian
guage, of such apt and felicitous power
of illustration, affords the opportunity of
life time. The refined and cultured citi-

pulpit celebrity to come and go, without
going to look upon him and hear him.
Here is an account of the excitement
produced in England by his appearance
there, when some time ago, he visited the
British Isles. Says the account:
This sermon was preached June 18th, 1879,
IN the Presbyterian church Colebrook Row, Is
iugtOn, London, England, Doctor Talmage's
first sermon in England. An English newspaper
describing the scene says: the members of the
congregation and their friends who had obtained
tickets of admission, entered at the side door
AT G:i5 p. IN, notwithstanding the crowded
state of the church, the front doors, at which
considerable clamor for some time had been
heard, were thrown open, and part of the
large crowd which had by that time
assembled, rushed in. Notwithstanding
the edifce was full to overhowiug the crowd
continued to press forward into the aisles and
galleries. Immediately began a scene of con-
fusion and uproar, which, we think il is safe to
