What an amazing thing simple, straight
forward business method in conducting
the affairs of the government is to the
average Congressman was well illustrated
by the reported effect on ex Representative
Cassidy of First Assistant Postmaster
General Hays query whether he would
make himself personally responsible" for
a citizen whom the Nevada Congressman
recommended for office. Mr.. Cassidy was
surprised to learn that the administration
did not care to take all the risk of a bad
appointment. He had not seen the man
he recommended for six years, and in the
meanwhile had not kept track of him.
Hence, although Mr.. Cassidy was willing
to indorse the applicants note for large
sum of money, Mr.. Hay did not feel jnsti-
fed in committing to his keeping the good
name of the administration. Incidents of
this kind indicate the kind of change that
has taken place at Washington since
March 4th. If Mr.. Hays views in this par
ticular prevailed with all the officials at
Washington possessing the power of max
ing appointments the democrats would
have walkover in 198S.-Balto. Sun.

Upon the receipt OF copy of The docket
entries of the Criminal Court of Baltimore
City showing the conviction of Howard
Cooper for felonious assault upon Miss
Katie Gray, of Baltimore county, the Gov
ernor on Monday authorized the prepara-
ton of the death warrant, fixing Friday,
July 31st, as the day of execution. The
document was countersigned the same af-
ternoon and forwarded to the sheriff of
Baltimore county. In the event of an ap-
peal to the United States Supreme Court
on writ of error the Governor states that
be will be guided entirely by the opinion
of the attorney general as to the legal pro-
priety of suspension of sentence. Aprapes
of this Cooper's counsel said on Monday
that nothing had been done toward pro-
viding for tha costs of an appeal to the
Supreme Court, and no action had conse-
quently been taken. They would be sur
prised il anything definite were done by
the prisoners friends. As to the signing
of the death warrant by the Governor they
had nothing to say.

The President on Saturday made three
important appointments in New York -
Edward L. Hedden was made collector OF
customs; Hans S. Beatrie. surveyor of the
port, and Silas W. Burt, naval officer
These appoint nents have been looked for
ward too generally with interest as it is
said that they would have considerable lie
bearing upon future Democratic prospects
in the Empire State. The selections are
generally regarded as wise ones and, so far
as we can gather. meet with universal ia
vor They are all men of sound business
principles and habits and, with the posi-
ble exception of Mr.. Beattie, have not been
active politicians. A few objections have
been urged against Mr.. Burt, owing, it is
said, to the fact that his appointment is a
concessico to the mugwumps, and it was
thought the reappointment of Postmaster
Pearson was as much as they could expect
of the administration. The wisdom of
the Presidents choice, however, may bear
fruit in the early future. At any rate it is
much to be hoped that it will.

The Norristown Pa.) Register says: The
colored people of the South before many
years will generally be Democrats. They
never took very kindly to the Republicans
but being persuaded that they fought them
free, that they were their friends, and that
the forty acres and mule would ye,
come, they voted the Republican ticket
almost to mao for years. Soon they dis,
covered that they were only used to put
white Republicans in office; that they
were deceived and robbed. They com.
planned Of their treatment, begged and
threatened, but all to no purpose. Even
last fall they were told that if the Demo.
Gratis succeeded in electing their Presi-
dent, they would be put back into slavery
just as the ignorant Republicans of the
North were told that the Democrats, il
Cleveland were elected, would pay the
rebel debt, pension the rebel soldiers, and
many other things OF similar character
Hence, the negroes are opening their eyes
to these deceptions, and. as we say above
are rapidly proclaiming themselves Demo
Gratis. This is so already perceptibly the
case in Virginia, and consequently, Mr.
Malone is rapidly passing from public
view as leader of men in that State.

As predicted in this correspondence
several weeks since, the internal revenue
receipts for the fiscal year ending 30th
inst. will fall below the estimates of Sc
cretary McCulloch. The deficit will not,
however, be so great as was expected, and
if it had not been for the seven months
extension of the time for the collection of
the WHISKY tax tue receipts would proba-
blv have exceeded the estimates. 1t has
been the subject of surprise to Congress
men who have recently made inquiries
on the subject to find that for six or eight
years the government has not lost cent
through defalcations of internal revenue
collectors. The system of keeping the
accounts which is in force is very simple,
but under it it seems almost impossible
that the government should be defrauded,
and if an attempt to defraud, was made
it would be detected within forty Ell ght
hours. Collectors of internal revenue are
required to deposit each days collections
with designated depository, and both
the collector and the bank must report to
The internal revenue commissioner by tele-
graph the amount deposited Washington

Secretary Manning has requested the
resignation of Horatio G.. Burchard, of
Illinois, as director of the mint. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Burchard will decline
to resign on the ground that there are no
charges against him, and further, because
his term of office will not expire until
February, 1899. 1t is said that the friends
of Mr.. Burchard question the right of the
Secretary of the Treasury to remove him,
inasmuch as he was appointed by the Pres
ident under special statute, which pro-
vldes that the incumbent shall not be re-
moved, except on charges sustained by the
Senate. Mr.. Burchard's friends assert that
his administration of affairs has been hon
est and efficient, and that the Senate will
not consent to his summary removal.

The Dolphin and her defects and q

The Dolphin and her defects and short
comings ar, still occupying the public
mind Under lhe last administration the
Congress authorized the Secretary of the
Navy to contract for the building of dis
patch boat Of certain dimensions and CA
pacities, to have sea speed of l. knots
an hour. Under the authority thus con
ferred Mr.. Chandler contracted with Mr.
John Roach for the Dolphin, and he Dol.
phin was in due time constructed, while
pending the cons ruction OF her the grea er
portion of the 'arge appropriation made
for the purpose, found its way into Mr.
John Roach's plethoric purse by the too
partial ex Secretary Unfortunately for
Mr. Roach The Democratic administration
came into power before the Dolphin was
finally accepted by the Government Sec
retary Whitney required the Do'phjn to
be tested in the presence Of an examining
board. appoin'ed by him, as to the points
specified in Mr.. Roach's CO tracf. before
she would be accepted by the Government
and the small remaining ia 'snce of the
money paid. The examining board put
her to several tests The result Of which

of the expeditions Of Congress, and pay

action of Secret.ry Viii ney has brought
Mr.. Chandler into print - the defense Of
his protege, Mr.. Roach. and, in an article
in the New York Tribune. he cautiously
takes issue with Secretary Whitney's ex
amining board and indelIcately accuses
NJ. Whitney Of loii ical bias as the mo
tive of his action In thus endeavoring,
in the face Of the facts, to excuse his awn
official peculations and defend his po'i.i-
cal ally, Mr.. Roach, against well establish
ed delinquencies, Mr.. Chandler seems to
have lost bis usual cunning; for his effort
seems to have drawn forth rebukes from
many of his own party journals and to
have generally failed of effect. 1t is now
understood why Mr., John Roach used to
contribute so literally to Republican cam
