The action of the members of the District
bar in presenting the name Of a successor to
Judge Wylie suggests what should be done by
our citizens in regard to other District offices,
which the President has at his disposal. Among
the officers who subject to executive APP
pointment are the Postmaster Marshal, Re-
Gordon of Deeds. and. by the 3oth OF June. two
District Commissioners. We say two Commits
sioneTs, because Mr.. Vests term will expire then
and Mr.Edmonds was appointed TO serve for an
unexpired term and has been simply holding
over since. The broad proposition is laid down
that to all these offices District citizens should
be appointed. In the case of the Commissioners
the law requires that they shall have been resi-
dents of the District for three Years, but that
period is not sufficient to enable 4 man, even
with the best intentions. to acquire sufficient
knowledge of District matters and sufficiently
intimate acquaintance with District people to
make an efficient administrator of District af-
fairs. Probably for all the positions named
there have been already many applications
filed. President Cleveland has said in the mat
ter of the marshalship, the only local
office in regard to which he has ex-
pressed himself, that he desired to APP
point District man. If it is the Presidents
desire to appoint District men, it should be the
duty of all good citizens to aid him as far as
possible He comes among us a stranger.
having no acquaintance with the people here
and is of course obliged to select from among
the applicants those having what seem to him
the best recommendations. In considering the
value of those recommendations it is believed
that he should give preference to those coming
from our own citizens. Experience has shown
how easy matter il is to secure the indorse-
ment of Senators and Representatives, but it is
not so easy To obtain the support of our best
citizens, those who are interested in the pros
perity and advancement of the national cap
ital, and who contribute in payment of taxes
and otherwise to that end.
The officers that the District people are most
interested in are the Commissioners and it is
believed that if they take proper means to voice
their wishes as to the men who shall next rule
over them, the expression of their desire will
have great weight with the President. Under
these circumstances it only requires harmony
and united effort ON the part OF our citizens to
secure the appointment of good and efficient

PARNELL'S PLANS.
What the Great AgitatOr Says 10 the lrisl,
peOple.

Parnell has issued manifesto to the
electors Of Great Britain and ireland say.
ing: THE Liberals are appealing to cleo.
tors for support under false pretenses. The
Liberals have tlagrantly violated the sol.
emn pledges made to Ireland, which should
be denounced. The coercion practices re.
sorted to under their regime were the most
brutal Of coercion measures. Juries were
packed in an unprecedented number Of
cases with utter sha,nelessness, and limo.
cent men were hung or sent to living
death Of penal servitude. Twelve hun.
dred persons were imprisoned without trial,
and ladies were convicted under the abso.
lutte act which was directed against the de.
graded sex. The press and public meet.
ings were suppressed as if Ireland were
Poland and the administration in England
we're Russian autocracy. Representatives
OF liberalism in Ireland have been men
like Mr. Foster and Earl Spencer, who
have left more hateful memories in Ire.
land than any statesmen for the past cen.
tury. If the long delayed triumph had
not expelled the Liberals, Earl Spencer
would still be at Dublin Castle and coer-
cioli would be triumphant in Ireland.
Landlords instead OF making a reasonable
abatement in the rents which the depres-
sion in agriculture demanded and which
every landlord in England and Scotland
conceded would be evicting their tenants
by wholesale, with Earl Spencer encour-
aging them and the police, and the soldiery
and the coercion magistrates would have
filled jails in assisting them. Under the
name Of free schools the Liberals are
making an insidious attempt to crush re-
ligious education and establish state OF
tyranny and intolerance to fetter the con.
science, therefore, we feel bound to advise
that no confidence be placed in the Lib
eral or Radical party, and as far as possible
prevent the Government of the Empire
from falling into the hands Of party SC
perfdious, treacherous and incompetent
The Irish Nationalists should not vote for
a Liberal or Radical except in some few
cases in which some courageous fealty to
the Irish in the last Parliament had given
guaranty that the candidate did not be-
long to the servile, cowardly and unprin
| cipalled herd who would break ever,
pledge and violate every principle in obey
ance to the call of thu. whiD or the man

REFORMED JUDAISM.
The Trouble Caused by the Recent Con-
ventiOn in Pittsburg,

Sermons were preached in Baltimore
last Sunday at the various Jewish syna.
gogucs, denouncing the action of the re-
cent Convention held at Pittsburg, and
severely criticising their published ideas OH
reformed Judaism. Rev. DIR. Sold, pas
tor OF the Hanover street Synagogue, the
most influential in the city, was particu-
larly severe in his structures, and the ofli-
cial body has taken action looking to a
severance of its connections with the Amer.
ican Hebrew congregation by which the
Jewish cemetery at Cincinnati is supported.
There is Il great deal of bitter feeling
among both orthodox and reformed He
brews over the assertion "lhat the rite ot
circumcision is relic OF barbarism, and,
the idea of Il personal God is old fashioned,
and should be abolishcd.'

\ GOOD MARkSMAN.
a Deserted Husband Kills His Wife and
Her Lover.

Loui, Sommcrticld, a Pole, aged s.
years, ut Washington City, on the Goth,
shot and instantly killed his wife and Goet-
,len Eiscnbaum, at the latte1's saloon, in
the northeastern part OF that city. Som
merticld', wife left him some weeks ago
and has been living at Eisenbaum's. That
afternoon Sommcriicld entered the saloon,
ard, drawing a revolver, emptied all the
chambers, one of the shots passing through
Eiscnbaum's heart, while Mrs. Sommer.
field was shot in tie back. Sommerticid
was arrested. He made no explanation,
cxccp,in. to say, in broken English, that
his wife had left him and cheated him oat
OF his money.

GEN. GRANTS BOOK.
Like Other Boys, He Wasn't Stnlious and
Didn't Like to Work.

The first Of the fifty nine chapters Of the
first volume Of Grants book is devoted to
questions Of ancestry, birth and boyhood.
The second takes up West Point and grad
uation, and will, doubtless, astonish the
cadets Of to-day with its narrative Of the
quiet course Of study, in which no lesson
was read twice, and many hours were
spent in miscellaneous reading. Chapters
three to six, inclusive, tell Of his army life,
while chapters seven to thirteen deal with
the Mexican War. Writers of stories for
the young will be dis'nayed to find that
the General says that in his youth he was
not studious, and didn't like to work, but
the search for obvious reasons for his sue.
cess in life will not be fruitless. From the
fourteenth to- the sixteenth chapter, inclusive
is tho narrative OF his marriage and life in
California up to his resignation in the
army. Even while at West Point he had
no military ambition, but looked forward
to the life OF Il professor Of mathematics
at some non.military college. The re.
naming twenty y-three chapters are devo-
ted to the war of the rebellion, and there
are maps OF all the principal battetields
The Gen al's opinions ON all questions,
and his estimates of persons who come
within his acquaintance, are fully stated,
and new light is thrown upon the character
of many, notably upon that OF General
Joseph f. Johnston.

THE CONGO COUNTRY,
II is Now Pronounced u Hopelessly I'm
healthy Country.

The New York HcyaIa's Paris special
says: De Brazza's uttcrances since his re-
turn here contrast strangely with those op-
ZIONIST raptures over the Congo which were
attributed to him in an interview alleged to
have been recently had in Lisbon. He
now admits that the French Congo coun.
try is worthless and likely to remain so for
years. The Ogowal, he says, is not nav.
igable, and railways must be built before
trade will be possible. With the help Of a
handful Of French and native assistants,
Brazza has formed rough military or.
ganization the natives doing duty in turn
as soldiers and workmcn. The expedition
has been greatly l'ampered through want
Of regular supplies.
NJ. Chayennes, a member Of the French
expedition, declares that all the Congo ma
tives who can afford to indulge in native
spirits, are habitual drunkards. Nor, &C.
cording 10 the same gentleman, are mat.
tiers any brighter on the Belgian side Of
the river.
Brazza's appearance itself tells an elo.
quent tale about the climate Of Congo.
His health has been shattered by fever,
and abuse Of quinine; his cheeks are hag.
gard and his eyes have u glaring and wolf:
ish expression.

MILAN'S DOWNFALL.
His Defeated and Dcmoralized Army Flee
ing.

\ dispatch from Belgrade of November
,1th saws the Serviaps are continuing their
retreat and the main army is now in Ser
Wan territory. The troops seem to be
demoralized, and since the recapture OF
Tsaribrod by the Bulgarians they have
fallen back without offering any resistance
to the victorious Prince Alexander. The
Bulgarians have occupied all the positions
recently held by the Servians in Bulgaria.
and are advancing to the frontier. The
Servian headquarters are now at Pirot.
The first class of the Landstturm has been
summoned for active duty. After COM
pletins the massing of his army, King
Milan will head first attack on the Bull
garians. ~,

grade is enraged at King Milan and that
the name of Prince Karaglorgevice is on
every lip. .,,<,
King Milan has decided to abdicate the
throne if necessary. Austria will occupy,
Servia in order to prevent the accession OF

THE SILVER QUESTION.
What the President Will Say in His Mes
sage.

The New York Suns Washington dis.
patch says: The Presidents message IS
substantially completed in its most i'm
portant parts. One question on which he
is likely TO disagree with the Democratic
majority in the House, is the proposed sus-
pension of silver coinage, and the equali
zation Of the silver with the gold dollars
1t is known he adheres to the policy of his,
letter addressed to Bland, Warner and Rae
gan on the 18th Of February 1855, and is
prepared TO enforce the arguments Their
used by the experience of the Treasury
during the last six months. On an up
and.down vote to repeal the Bland act,
pure and simple, there is 4 known majority
against that proposition.

in existence at Berkely has ample provis-
ion for the teaching Of all branches OF lit
erature, science and art The new ioun.

students from Eastern States and from
ether countries. The income OF twenty
millions will certainly be enough to accom-.
modate ali students who may desire to
pursue their education in the bracing eli
