THE PATENT OFFICE.

The Patent Office under Republicanism
was managed as loosely as the other depart
ments of the Government. There are now
10000 cases awaiting consideration. The
old Commissioner leaves q fine job to his
Democratic successor. A correspondent of
the New York World has been nosing
around the Washington departments, and
his experience is valuable and worth know
ing. From him we get onr information.
In the consideration of the filling of the
vacancy in the Patent Office Commissioner
some very interesting facts have been
brought out. 1t has been brought to the at
tention of the new Secretary that there are
10000 cases hung up in the Office awaiting
action. These cases practically so tied
up that without change in the system
nothing can be done with them. Through
q simple change an early decision in a
majority Of the cases might be obtained. As
q fee in each case is SO, a large sum of
money would be at once saved to the Gov
eminent. Under the old management OF the
Patent Office every obstacle has been placed
in the way of securing patents to inventors.
Where applications have been rejected they
have been rejected in such technically
worded decisions that no inventor without
consulting with q skilled patent attorney
and spending more money for further exam
nation, could tell wherein he was wrong
and what was necessary to set him right. A
great many inventors are too poor to do this,
and become discouraged. The majority OF
the cases that are ar present hung up is said
TO be of the class just described. Those who
are aiming at reform in this Office merely
suggest that decisions in the future should
be worded IN simple language, so that any
inventor could tell from the decision itself
what was needed to set him right.

THE DYING OHIEFTAIN

The heart of the Nation is at the bedside
of General Grant, throbbing with sympathy
for the sufferer. The attending physicians
tell Us that his end is near. The hand that
welded the sword that commanded the
armies Of the Union is nerveless. The stall
wart frame that endured the march, the
fight, heat and cold, beating rain and chill
ing wind, is wasted and aweary. The voice
that ordered hosts to the onset now calls the
name of child, beyond the ocean, whom he
would see once more. Twenty years
ago to-day, officers in uniform, boot
ed and spurred, waited upon
him for commands; to-day wife and daugh-
ter constitute his devoted staff and physi
clans assume authority over him. A pris-
oner Of an incuarsble mslady, the hero OF
Shiloh and the Wilderness is within its deadly
grasp, and no arm is strong enough to de-
liver him: the chieftain is dying.
In this hour when the grim monster has
claimed him, all differences between any of
the living and the departing one are con-
signed to forgetfulness. Not soldier of the
South who confronted him, not voter Of
the North who opposed him politically, but
would now extend an arm to avert the
untimely fate which is Detailing him.
No longer the warning leader, no
longer the political candidate, no longer
the partisan, he is one of the great brother
hood of man. If be had faults they parted
from recollection with the coming of the
tidings of his approaching end. We now see
only the military chieftain under whose
leadership the Union was saved, the ex-
Chief Magistrate of the Nation, the illustri-
Gus citizen.
The anxious watch of the Loving over the
couch of the fated one will be kept also from
ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the
gulf The tears they shed the Nation feels
and responds with the sentiment illustrated
in the line
One touch OF nature makes the whole world kin,

DOWN A SEWER.

Mr.. Cleveland was found in sewer once.
It is good story. The Blaine organs should
set it to music and play 1t some day when
they are feeling tired and lonesome. The
incident is related by a correspondent of the
New York Sun, and he received it from a
strong Republican from Buffalo, who at the
time Mr.. Cleveland was Mayor of the city
was carrying on some large operations which
required him to get up early every morning
and visit the Buffalo lake docks. A big sew.
er Job was being carried on by the Alder
man, which was involving the expenditure
OF good deal OF money, and Just then an
other appropriation was to be called for. 1t
was beginning to make noise in the city.
The gentleman referred to drove one morn
ing about daylight down toward the dock,
when he caught sight of the Mayor near the
unfinished sewer. He reined up his horses
and asked the Mayor what he was doing
there. Mr.. Cleveland was pretty we'll be-
smeared with mortar and mud, especially on
his boots. He told Mr.. - that he had
been looking thoroughly for himself into
this job, and that he regarded 1t as swindle,
and it should have no more money from the
city treasury if he could prevent it. 'And
now" said the Buffalo Republican, 81 am
going home to vote for him for Governor"
Mr.. Cleveland was at the time running for
Governor of New York. This is the way,
then, that Mr. Cleveland was found in a
sewer. We refer it to our esteemed conten-
porsries of the Republican press.

THE REPUBLICAN sPo1LsMEN

The Republican organs are endeavoring to
give the impression that the rush on Wash
ington by the Democratic office-seekers is
quite unprecedented. They are simply not
posted or are making false statements know

the Potomac or lunstic asylum, and poor

this point, and he says: "Any who can re-

Justly appreciate the exaggerated pictures

Office now exhibited In Washington does not
approach the Republican rush for place in
1861. Even when civil war was raging, the

The clamor at that time made by the Re-
publicans was unutterabiy disgraceful. II

Habitual constipation is not only one of
the most unpleasant, bat at the same time
one of the most injurious conditions of the
human system, and is but forerunner of
disease, unless removed. This is usually
accomplished by the use of purgatives. which
for the time afford relief, but after their inn
mediate effects have passed they leave the
system in a worse state than before. To eff
feet a cure it is necessary that the remedy
used should be one that not only by its ca
thartic effects relieves the DO wells but at the
same time acts as tonic so as to restore the
organs to a sound, healthy condition. This

Taking all the facts into consideration, it
appears clear to Mr.. II. @. Sorahy that all
the bright and beautiful tints of leaves in
autumn are NEARLY the earlier stages of de-
composition, and are due to the more or less
considerable triumph of chemical forces over
the weakened destroyed vitality of the
living plant. He adds that enc can not but
feel that this is a very unpoetical way in
which to regard the magnificent tints of a
fine autumnal landscape, but it is not less
true than that the COlOred clouds OF evening
