found the spot where he had stood over night

Mr.. ALBRIGHT, an obscure but useful
Democratic 'worker" Of New York, was not
long ago given place as skilled laborer in the
Treasury Department, an appointment which
did not require the preliminary of a civil-serv-
ice examination. From this humble position
he has just been promoted to be chief of di
vision, an advancement that the New York
Evening Post, which still maintains that this
is ''reform" administration, not unjustly
designates as 'Fcurious."
The Indianapolis journal., 1885-10-03

''WHAT has the Kitz affair to do with the
coming city elections" is in every Democrats
mouth. "Just nothing at ALL" the Journal
replies. Mr.. Kitz was elected on a reform
ticket to reform township affairs all of which
he has done to the entire satisfaction of those
who voted for him. 1t is impossible to find
anything like it in the history of Center town
ship, except the the trusteeship of that other
Democratic reformer, Doherty, few years
ago. 1t is nothing new under the sun for
Democratic reformers to reform just this way
That Mr.. Kitz went from the saloon business
into the trustee business cuts no figure at all
in the case. He is reformer, you know, and
that is just what Mr. Cottrell is, if he is any
thing. Indeed, Mr.. Cottrell would never have
left the Republican party but that it had be-
come so corrupt that it could not
afford an extra postoffice or some other
fat place for all its workers. of which
he was one of the chief while reasonable hope
of good Office remained. The truth is,
however, that the Democratic party has been
just about as mean and ungrateful toward him

A LONDON private letter says that Mrs. Langtry
has certainly made up her mind since the Lonsdae-

home. She house in Fifteenth steet, and will
probably occupy it. As evidence of her intent, she
speaks in most eulogstc terms of the noble people of
the mighty Republic, who so generous and chval-
rous to women. The determined effort of the Prince
of Wales, the correspondent adds to keep her from
Coventry, has completely failed. Mr.. Langtry will,
of course remain in Europe. She feels sure she can
make great deal more money here than in England,
and she admits that she has an ardent love for Yankee
dollars.
IT was Governor Austin Blair, of Michigan who
first commissioned Sheridan colonel OF a cavalry
regiment. The little captain was serving in May,
1862, as chief quartermaster on General Halleck s
staff in the army before Cornth and ordered to
Michigan for the purpose of buying horses Governor
Blair and admired the active brainy solder, and
appointed him Colonel of the Third Regiment of cav
airy of that State. The commission accepted.
In less than six weeks. Colonel Sheridan's command
being in northern Mississippi General Haleck placed
the young colonel at the head of all the cavalry in his
army, and sent him a raid to break up the Mobile
Ohio railroad. This was the first organized cavalry
raid of the civil war, and demonstrated the great
utility of that of the service, when and were
armies operating over such vast was
then the case Sheridan was made brigadier at the
termination of that campaign.
