his text Mark IL, p: TIE Sabbath was
made fer man.; and If that was true no
doubt il was good for man, and we had bet
ter keep it for man; and his object was to
get in plea for the man who works on Sun
day and for good government. for he be-
lisved the defense Of the Sabbath was pa
triotic duty. Sunday laws are found on the
statute book of every State in the Union
except, perhaps. California; and Blackstone
and Storey, as we'll as many other great
legal minds. had declared that such laws
were necessary to civilized government
Besides the general laws there were specific
laws relatiDg to various trades and business
and prescribing punishment for offenses
against them; and the Legislature OF this
Slate had taken considerable pains to pro-
hlbt the dissertation of the Sabbath. One
OF the recent efforts was to prohibit bali
playing on Sunday, and this has passed the
Lower House. but is still pending in the Sem
ate. May be- it would be better II 1t pro-

being gathered together to q ball game
on that day. twas to the interest of the
community as well as of individuals, to have
one davis rest in every week. 1t was q
proven fact that more work could be done
by man who worked six days instead of
seven- And yet the United States Postoffice

every Sunday-not all day, but enough to
interfere greatly with their family arrange
menis and religious services. And il was
astonishing, to find how many people there
were in city like this who were Obliged to
work the whole or greater part of Sunday.

offensive to the moral sense of the

immigration of a servile class 10 compete with
American labor, with no intention Of acquiring
citizenship and bringing with them and re-
tanning habits and customs repugnant to our

The people demand reform in the admins
tration of the government and the application
OF business principles to public affairs. AS a
means 10 this end Civil Service Reform should
be In good faith enforced. Our citizens have
the right to protection from the incompetency
OF public employees who hold their places solely
as the reward of partisan service and from the
corrupting influence of those who promise, and
the vicious methods of those who expect such
rewards And those who worthily seek public
employment have the right to insist that merit
and competency shall be recognized instead of
party subserviercy, or the surrender of honest
political belief.
In the administration of a government
pledged to do equal and exact justice TO all men,
there should be no pretext for anxiety touch
ing the protection of the freedmen in their
rights, or their security in the enjoyment of
their privileges under the Constitution
and its amendments. All discussion as to
thelr ntness for the place accorded to them
as American citizens is idle and Improbable,
except as it suggests the necessity for their i'm
provement. The fact that they are citizens en-
titles them to all the rights due to that relation
ana charges them with all its duties, obliga-
tions and responsibilities
These topics, and the constant and ever vary
ing wants of an active and enterprsing popula-
ton. may well receive the attention and the
patriotic endeavor of all who make and ex-
ecute the federal law. Our duties are practi-
cal, and call for industrious application, an in
telligent perception of the claims of public Of

by united action, to secure to all the people of
the land the full benefits of the best form Of gov
ernment every vouchsafed to man. And let us
not trust to human effort alone; but humbly ac-
knowledging the power and goodness of AL
mighty God, who presdes over the destiny of
nations, and who has at all times been revealed
In our country's history, let US invoke His aid

tent office, yesterday gave his decision in the
great telephone interference case of Bell VS..
Gray, vs.. McDonough, VS.. Noelker and Others,
involving the question OF priority OF invention
OF the telephone. The examiner of interfer-

in nearly all minor points, but gave priority to
McDonough in the invention OF the telephone
receiver, which is perhaps the most important
part of the apparatus On appeal TO the board
of examiners in chief McDonough's device was
declared imperative, and this point was also
decided in Bells favor. In his decision yester-
day upon appeal from the decision the, commits
siomer affirms the findings of the board of ex-
aminers, and awards priority Of invention to

REPLY OF POSTMASTER GENERAL HATToN To


REPLY OF POSTMASTER GENERAL HATToN To
THE HOUSE RESOLUTION.
The Postmaster General yesterday transmitted
to the House his reply to a resolution calling for
information with g regard to alleged great
frauds" in the supply of official envelopes dis
covered last summer. He says that the amounts
involved were greatly magnifed by the news
paper publications. The actual sums deducted
from the contractors bills were but s., ,92S from
the Piyfnpton company ana the Morgan EnNe-
lope company, and $3.50 from p. z. Kellogg &
Co. The Postmaster General says there is no
reason to suppose, much less to obelieve, thatany
officer at the department was guilty OF the
slightest act of omission or commission in con-
nection with the supply of the defective envel-
opes under both the contracts involved 1t does
appear clearly, however, he further says, that
the government agent and inspector at Hart
ford, whose duty il was To supervise the manu-
facture and issue ofall the envelopes in question
had either failed 10 mprehend his instructions
and the object of his appOintme or that he
had wilfully disregarded them.
