AN ordinary Cabinet Minister soon sinks
into insigniicance in England when he re-

name to the present generation until his death
occurred last month.
Mr. GATLING. the famous inventor of the
gun which bears his name, is now well on N

WORKING FOR ARTHUR.
The Way in Which the Great Army of
Federal officials is Being Used.

Federal officials is Being Used.
Scores of persons in Washington, says a
special from that city to the Philadelphia
Times, are able on their own personal
knowledge to dispute the assertion that
General Arthur is not employing Office
holders to secure delegates to the Chicago
Convention. The Internal Revenue
Bureau has ever been an effective ma
chine. Commissioner Evans has just re-
turned from Kentucky, whittier he went
to regulate the Arthur machine with the
view to a solid delegation. The develop
ment of activity for Blaine In many parts
Of the state was causing alarm in the Ar
thur camp. II became necessary to paci-
fy Cassius GOOdloe, leader in the Sew
enth Revenue District, TO do which the
resignation Of SwOpe, the Collector, was
procured to put GOOdlOe in. SwOpe is to
have another place - Solicitor of the
Treasury, perhaps. Other changes and
appointments are to be made in the inter.
est of solid delegation.
Revenue Officer Clark, Raum's chief
clerk, reached Washington last week on
an extended tour in the interest of Arthur
delegates. He is operating in the lobby
Of Congress for the whisky ring. As an
eX-member he has the run Of the floor Of
the House. ArthuTism and whisky have
a near relation. If the rings scheme for
getting rid of the tax fails it will not be
on account Of lack Of help from the adj
ministrati0n.
Department officials have left for differ
ent quarters in the last two weeks to look
after delegates. 1t is the strangest thing
yet that there should be any attempt at
denial Of the part Ofiiceh0lders are play
ing for Arthur. Postmaster COnger, in
Washington, is not only active for Arthur
delegates, but proposes to be one himself.
1t is the open zeal OF OfiicehOlders in be-
coming delegates themselves that Arthur
may well complain of. The ability Of the
administration TO secure delegates from
the seat of government is to be tested in
Postmaster COnger's case. 'sThe ass
knOweth his crib and the OK his STALL"
Blaine's sudden looming up all over the
country has put ceremony out Of the
question. The word has been passed;

NJ Roason for Retaliation.

The minority report submitted by Sena-
tor Vance from the Committee on Foreign
Relations. relative TO Germany's action
in prohibiting the importation Of Ameri-
can pork. presents the matter in a some
what different light from what it has been
presented in the newspapers and by
patriotic Congressman. Two points are
made in the report. The first is that
Germany has a right to exclude our hog
products if she is sincere in asserting
that they are unwholesome, and that it is
our duty 10 remove all ground Of COM
plant By a rigid system Of inspection.
The second is that if the alleged fear Of
trichinOsis is only an excuse 10 keep
American pork from coming into compe-
titi0n with the pork Of German farmers
we have no reason TO complain. Ger
many is only doing in one way what we
are doing in another. We impose prohibi-
tory duties in order 10 afford protection to
many Of our products, and Germany says
our hog products are unwholes0me as an
excuse 70 keep them out Of competition
with her home products Of the same char
acter. This brings home to Us in a very
forcible way the workings Of the protec-
tive system. We have been thinking all
the time we could shut out European pro-
ducts, but that Europe could not shut out
our breadstuffs. We find that at least one
country can shut ont our pork. and if the
wheat fields Of India yield as great har-
vests as they promise it may not be many
years before the demand for our -four will
fall far below what it is at present. When
American farmers can find no market for
their wheat and pork they will begin
10 wonder whether a home market is all
that Is desired, and whether the prOtec-
tive system is not a failure after all. tits
reported that several mills in this State
are OverstOcked with their products, and
a meeting Of mill owners has been called
10 discuss the problem Of over-produc-
ton. The price OF cotton is advancing.
but the price of cotton goods does not adj
vance. The trulh is, the market cannot
nbsorb all the goods that are manufac-
tured, and our manufacturers are prohib-
tied from competing in foreign markets by
our protective system. Although Senator
Vance's report has little chance Of meet
Ing the approval of the Senate, it will aid
in directing the attention Of the country
to the iniquities Of that system.

The great increase in the number Of
divorces granted annually is attracting
the attention Of all evangelical churches.
In an parts of the United states they are
discussing the divorce evil. and their in-
fiuence viii he unitelly in favor of its
abatement.
The Catholic Church docs not permit
divorces and Catholic priests invariably
refuse TO perform a marriage ceremony
where either Of the parties has been di-
yorced. The EpiscOpalians at their last
general convention, in Philadelphia, it
Will be remembered, appointed 4 large
committee TO report on the subject in full
at the next convention. The General
Conference Of the Northern Methodist
Church is 10 meet in Philadelphia next
month and it is thought that it will take
some decisive action on the question Of di-
v0rce. The Presbyterian Synod at its
last session also appointed a committee
on the subject. which Will report next
fall. The Baptist Associations all over
the country have been discussing the
matter. and the influence of the denomi-
nation viii be with the others against
unrestricted divorces, as now allowed by
the laws Of many Of the States.
The general sentiment OF all Protestant
churches is that divorces ought only TO be
granted for adultery. and IN no other case
viii they be recognized by the churches,
if the present sentiment becomes crystal
hzed into the form Of enactments.
4 united effort Will doubtless be made
to discourage divorces, not only by means
OF church regulations. but by legislative
enactments in the different States reduc-
Ing the number Of causes for divorce.

savannah'- Interests in Congress.

SaVannah's Interests in Congress.
The Savannah delegation had very
satisfactory hearing before the Committee
on Rivers and Harbors yesterday, in the
interest Of the Savannah river improve
ment, and are hopeful that liberal ap-
preparation will be made. The Georgia
delegation in Congress accompanied them
before the committee and ably seconded
their efforts Senator Brown made a
strong argument in favor Of such an
appropriation as would permit the
wOrS TO be pushed forward
rapidly. He understands thoroughly the
Importance Of giving Savannah deep
water TO the sea. He is a man of large
enterprises, and he sees clearly that if this
city is 10 maintain her importance as a
seaport vessels Of the largest tonnage
must visit her wharves. The plan adopted
for deepening the channel is no longer an
experiment. The part Of the improvement
already completed proves that it viii be a
success. 1t is important that the work
should be pushed forward as rapidly as
possible. Vessels thatrun regularly here
now are frequently forced to wait for the
tide. As the improvement is to be
finished there is no good reason for delay
ing it by appropriating only third or
half as much money annually as il
needed. The revenues Of the government
are ample. and il viii cost no more
10 do the work in one or two
years than it viii in three or
four. The delegation will be given a hear
Ing by the Committee en- Public Buildings
tomorrow. They viii doubtless argue as
strongly there for public building for
this city as they did before the River and
Harbor Committee for the river improve
ment. The efforts OF the delegation pro-
mise Co. DE productive Of good results.

1t has just been decided that a policy
holder in a life insurance company has
right To ask questions respecting the
company's condition, and that they must
be answered. In 1871 a man by the name
Of Uhlman took out a policy on the ten
wear dividend plan in the New York Life
for $1,000. At the end OF ten years the
COMPANY notified Uhlman that his policy
was worth so much and that the money
was at his disposal. He refused to accept
the amount and demanded a statement
showing in detail the Accommodations on
his policy. This was refused. Uhlman
sued the company. and Judge NanHoesen
held that the company owed Uhlman
debt, and that he was not bound to accept
the company's statement as conclusive.
OF course, the company will appeal from
this decision, and fight it to the bitter
end. There are few life companies that
care to have their affairs inquired into.
An inquiry once in while, however,
would be a good thing, perhaps for the
policy holders.
