Simple-minded voters who really believe that
the Democratic party is in favor OF Civil
Service Reform are respectfully requested 10
note the course pursued by certain OF the Dem
ocratic State officers who assumed the duties OF
the1 positions only last Tuesday. Since then
Acknowledgement O'Brien has dismissed all OF
his predecessors subordinates save one. Mr.
Sweet, the State Engineer, has also removed a
number of the employees whom he found III his
Office, and has put in some new men, including a
most obedient servant of Mr.. Daniel Manning
This indecent haste is explained when 1t Is re-
membered that the Civil Service law went into
effect Yesterday, and makes such removals I'M
possible hereafter except for cause. This law
was passed by the last Democratic Legislature
but it was not made operative until january
three days after the new State officials were
to go into power. The delay, of course, was to
permit Just such changes as have been made
No more severe comment on the sincerity OF
Democratic love for Civil Service Reform could
be made than is furnished by the mere state
ment of these facts.

The stock market yesterday was sluggish and
comparativey inactive until the afternoon, but
closed with great strength and with a considerable
advance on many stocks The temper of the Street
is rapidly changing, and the developments in some
important properties of late, while dishcartening
TO holders, have tended to remove distrust to
other properties which hold their position and re-
port good earnings. 1t is probable too that the
reinvestment of money disbursed by Government
and corporations about January will soon be felt
in the market for good stocks it has already been
felt in the market for bonds of the best sort.
Some Of the Western newspapers have bad
habit of printing portraits If Mr.. Carlisle is
elected Speaker, or Frank James arrested, or Alr.
Morrison made Chairman Of the Ways and Means
Committee, or some murderer executed his portrait
is printed. Owing to circumstances over which
the newspapers to have no
control the hghwayman and the mur-
derer are often with great difficulty TO
be distinguished from the statesman. In map print
ing the American papers are far ahead of those
abroad, but the publication of portraits, whether
a legitimate feature of the daily newspaper or not,
is hardly practicable, considering the quality of
paper used and the rate of the printing 1t to be
wished that daily papers which have fallen into
such habit might break themselves Of it. The
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette has been distressing
Mrs. II. b. Stanton and Miss Susan b. Anthony be-
yond measure by printing two socalled portraits of

pathetic strain:

The Treasury starts the year with deceptive
appearance of increased cash on hand, due TO the
continued paper imitation by issue of certificates.
Since January the Treasury has gained SsS5, ,622

tonal currency, and S500,666 In legal tenders.

Now that ODonnCl is hanged ana Is uI no
further use as an Irish grievance, his old admir-
eTs are rushing into print with all kinds OF dam
pging statements about him. The last Is from
friend, who SAYS he had the story from ODOn-
nell's own lips with permission to publish 1t
when further concealment was useless. 1t pur-
ports TO give full details OF the shooting, show
gthat the infamous Carey was deliberately muir
dered These assertions, whether they are true
or not, do not matter much now to ODomclL
Carey or the general public. But they ought to
contain a good many points OF sad reflection Tor
the humble representatives. of the Irish vote in
Congress.
The Adueduct Commissioners have wisely de-
cjded to carry the new aqucduct to the CrOton
Dam instead Of to the site of the proposed
Quaker Bridge Dam. This insures for New
York city full supply of water within the
shortest possible time, and dcEanges CrOton Lake
from mere settling basin into huge reser-
yoir, adding fifteen hundred million gallons Of
water TO our present storage supply. Then,
too, the connection as now decided upon will
place the present reservoirs, and as many more
as may be built hereafter, entirely within con-
troll for repairs and cleaning. But these are not
the only advantages of the situation. The de-
cisiOn of the Commissioners leaves Inc Necessity
of building any dam at all at Quaker Bridge an
open question.
The police yesterday arrested 80 lottery
policy dealers, and Inspector Byrnes says he
has evidence enough to convict them II
only he can secure the cooperation OF the
District Attorneys Office. Here is chance for
Mr. Olney to show his zeal in good works.
Credit is due Mr.. Byrnes and his detectives for
these arrests yet, all the same, 1t would be just
as wise for the Inspector to refrain from too
sweeping accusations against the recent ad-
ministratiOn of the District-AttOrney's Office
The late Mr.. McKeon's assistants were not al
ways what they ought to be- but Mr.. McKeon
shut up all the faro banks in this city and kept
them shut up for months. That Is more than
Mr. Byrnes or any other man connected with
the police force has been able to do.
The alleged letter threatening the Pope with
dynamite must have been written by some
crazy fellow. Leo XIIIth's course toward Ire
land, since the Irish troubles became violent,
certainly has not been such as to rouse the wrath
Of faithful Catholics, no matter how much they
snay sympathize with Mr.. Parnell and the cause

1t is stated, too, that he not only protected
many individuals who had invested trusting IN

see that the Pope's course in this difficult mat

How to Take Life.

Take life like a man, says Spurgeon.
Take it just as though it was-as it is-an
earnest, vital, essential affair. Take il Just
as though you were born to the task of
performing amerry part in it-as tho the
world had waited your coming. Take it as
though it were a grand opportunity to
achieve, to carry forward great and good
schemes, to hold and to cheer suffering,
weary, it may be heart-broken, brother.
The fact is, life is undervalued by a great
majority of mankind. 1t is not made half
as much of as should be the case. Where
is the man or woman who aceomplishes
one tithe of what might be done Who can
not look back on opportunities lost and
plans unachieyed and thoughts crushed, all
caused from lack Of necessary and possible
effort If we knew better how to take
and make the most Of life, it would be
greater than it Is Now and then a man
stands aside from the crowd, labors
earnestly, steadily, confidently, and straight
way becomes famous for wisdom, intellect,
skill, greatness of some sort The world
wonders, admires, idolizes; and yet it only
illustrates what each may do if he takes
hold of life with purpose If man but
say he will, and follow it up, there is moth
ing in reason he may not expect to ac-
eomplish.

tiyes which wounded pride and irritated

Unhealthy Literature.

That the country is flooded with novels
Of q most pernicious nature, is fact which
NO observant person may deny. That the
country would not be flooded with them IL
they were not encouraged, Is another fact
too evident 10 need proof. How, then, in
the face Of these two facts, can We account
for this morbid curiosity on the part Of 50
many members Of the community?
Some novel readers tell rs that they
peruse those works simply to acquire style
In writing; but all are aware that TO read
immoral works for the purpose Of forming
. persons style, Is a very lame excuse.
Writings that dress vice In the garb Of dig
nifty, or in any manner palliate or conceal
its,natural hideousness, can answer no other
purpose than to weaken the influence of
virtue and promote the cause Of dishonesty
and crime. Writings that attempt such q
purpose, are so many efforts to counteract
and destroy whatever is salutary in religion,
government, and laws
Those writers who would demoralize the
lower orders of society, by persuading them
that the institutions of religion and Law,
which protect every man in the possession
of his own, are unsanetioned by the dictates
Of justice or the promphngs Of sound rea :
son, are the most mischieVous pests OF lit

is misemployed, is censurable-for, IN any
way to encourage wickedness Is TO partake
of its guilt If society suffers by the dissem-
iRation of vicious principles, it is poor
apology for the promoters thereof TO allege
that they do so, not from appreciation Of
the principles, but from the sdmiration Of
the dress in which they appear, as if poison
were the less deadly because it il offered
