Utterly Ineonsistsnt.

sundry newspapers arc discussing tho
case of Wisconsin man who was recon-
mended to office by member Of Congress
from his state but has been snubbed by
the President, whereat the Wisconsin
Democrats are indignant. The story Of
this man, as told by correspondents, is
this:
HC lived in Wisconsin before the war When
the war broke out he went south enlisted In
The rebel army and served 10 II while HOSTILE
ties continued Atter the war he returned to
Wisconsin tO live dressed In confederate gray,
which he wore until the people of his neigh

different color II he did not change II himself
lIo now has tho impudenoe to ask for IN office,
and he mas rs his hacker member of Con,
grcss who ought 10 know better and some
other people, That recommendation might
have secured his appointment If his history
had not been known to the Postmaster General.
Here we have the case Of citizen who,
believing that tho south was right had
tho COURAGE of his convictions, aud was
ready to giYo his life in support Of bis be-

A Card from Mr.. Tyler.

An erroneous statement which has been in.
advertently printed in many newspapers Is
corrected by the following note:
EDITOR NATIoSAL REpUGLICAS: Your Rich
mond (Va.) correspondent of the 10th instant,
in speaking Of the supposed murder OF Fannie
Lillian Madison, has stated in respect TO the
supposed murderer, Thomas j. Cluyerius, now
on trial in Richmond, thathe sis a family
relative OF ex.prcsident Tyler" Permit me
to correct the false impression thus made upon
the minds OF your readers.
Thomas j. Cluverius is not, in any way
either by birth, by blood, by connection, or
otherwise "a family relative of ex-President
Tyler"
Some newspaper fabricator Of sensational
paragraphs from Richmond had said this be-
lore In the EreHilg star of this city, and It was
nj once authOritatively denied by myself in
the columns Of the Star. Since then 1t has
been also authortatively denied In the Rich
mond and Alexandria Journals of Virginia,
Still II is rendered necessary by its iteration
thus in THE REPUBLICAN, that should ask you
thus again to contradict the assertion. am,
respectfully yours, DC, JouS TYLER, JR.

A strnnrn Colneldence.

MetyphysicianS arc invited to ponder
on the interesting fact that change from
coldness to friendliness in the minds Of
Democratic statesmen toward the Presi-
dent is usually coincident with the be-
stowal Of offices on tho friends Of those
statesmen.
1t Is far from our pursoso to intimate
that there is anything 30 base as selfish
greed in tho makeup Of Democratic
statesman. On the contrary, we reject
that insinuation as unworthy Of this
truly good era Of reform.
But, having rejected it, the trouble be-
gins, and we are compelled to call for the
aid of mental scientists in trying to ex-
plain the coincidence above noted.

JUDICIARY FINANCES.
The District Courts Take Recess 60
Husband the Small Fund.

When the criminal court met yester-
day morning District Attorney Worthing
ton stated that there had been no assign
ment made of cases for trial, as it had
been found necessary TO pursue an
economical course on account Of tho low
state of finances remaining to run the
United States courts.
Justice Macarthur wished to know the
condition of the Jail. and how many per-
sons there were remaining to be tried.
Mr.. Worthington stated that all those
in Jail had been given an opportunity for
trial except very recent commitments.
lie thought that by taking an adjourn
ment for one week arrangements could
/ be mado in the meantime, 80 that when
| the session was resumed tho court could
[ continue right along without further in
! tcrruption.
Justice Macarthur, in speaking TO the
! Jurors, said that the fund for judicial
! purposes had become nearly exhausted,
and it was necessary to husband the small
balance romaing in order to keep the
| court open. He then excused the jurors
| for one week. IL was also stated that
| after the grand jury made their report to-
day they will be given respite for the
same period
Justice Cox opened tho May term Of the
circuit cou,t yesterday, and in the ex-
animation Of tine jurors as to their quail
fieations excused Messrs. r. II. Willett, S.
4. q. Morsell, Joseph b. Hill, Arthur L.
Brice, Austin Herr, Frank j. Tibbetts,
Dornin Ellis, Oscar o. Stevens, Anthony
GaiRler, NJ. p. Rice, Jno. Moran, and
Martin Griffin. No order was made to
fill the vacancies, as 1t is not decided yot
whether or not the court will take short
recess and allow tho criminal court to
continue its session and have the benefits
of what little money remains for the use
of the courts.

OUR morning contemporary, always
esteemed. will not be delighted to read in
the Yieksburg Post that 'Mr. Randall is
growing in popularity in Mississippi, and
we hope and expect to sec him the choice
of the Mississippi Democrats for Prosi-
dent when the national convention meets
in 1855" Evidently the Democrats of
Mississippi have not learned to regard
Mr.. Randall as an assistant Republican"

We don't believe Bill Morrison got any

SUMNER OPERA AT ALBAUGfs.
There are two things that the Washington
theater.going public appreciate, and those are
cheap prices and gOod.performance. Both
these elements were embraced at Albaughs
last night when "Prince Mothusalem,"
strausss pretty opera, was presented to an
audience that filled every available seat. The
opera was put ON with n smoothness and pre-
cislon which approached perfection. The
Prince Methusalem of Agnes stone and the
Pulcinella of Miss Marie Beebe, the Sigis-
mund OF Louis De LaDge, and the Cyprian OF
Alexander Clark were acted and sung with
an excellence that was fully appreciated. The
other characters were also well assumed.
THE MASCOT" AT FoRDs.
The performance of "The Mascot at Ford'a
last night by the Wlley-Golden Opera Com
pany drew an overilowing audience, and the
opera was given with q dash and finish that
was charming, characteristic this company.
There Is no better Bettina on the stage than
Miss Dora Wiley, and Mr Goldens Rocco was
immensely funny, Miss Edith Jennesse sang
the part of Famietta very sweetly, aud Miss
Martha Porleous looked graceful Prince
Frederick. Charles +. Lang has a good tenor
voice. aud he and Miss Wiley sang tho gobble
song three times in response TO encores. Miss
Wiley interpolated in the second act, "Home,
sweet Home" and rendered 1t very nicely.
