TAIN about geld mining along the
Potomac seems strange, but IA shrewd q
man IA Senator Sawyer has been en-
gagged for four years in such mining
Ex-senator Sabir has organized com
pany to work n mine there. The fact IL
we'll known that III and along the Rap
pahHnook river there is considerable
gold, and formerly considerable mining
operations for the precious metal were
extensively carried on. Virginia soil is
30 poor to raise any ything ON it that 1T
ought to bear gold in liberal quantities
to make up for poverty of surface.
The s. Louis Post Dispatch puts n

among other things, that while Mr.. Bright

will make the First and Second districts moro
strongly Democratic, the bill TO take effect at
once.
Mr.. Brcckinridgc's reasons were slated
very frankly In the interview. In the first
place he docs not doubt that the Second
District II reliably Democratic, but should
the changes be made he desires that they do
not 40 into effect until some very remote
date, say about August 1890. Hc has no
doubt In the world OF his election, but
should Congress decide that he was not elected
and a new election become necessary by

John NJ. Clayton, he would prefer Go make

WIEN RoGuEs FALL OFT.

Wanamaker proposes TO be Postmaster
General and TO do his duty without con-
sulting the boss by whose aid he was
foisted upon Harrison in payment, it is
supposed, for a subscription of $500. 900
TO carry on the campaign and help buy
certain votes in Indiana and New York by
which Cleveland was defeated and Harri-
son was elected. Wanamaker declares he
viii not be guided by Senator Quay, and
in proof of it he has appointed a Mr..
Field TO be postmaster Of Philadelphia
who is especiallyand particularly odious TO
Quay because he helped some time ago to
defeat Leeds, the regular Republican ian
dldate for Sheriff OF that county. This Is
not what the Boss bargained for, and he is
wrathy beyond expression. He wanted
Leeds, who is a ward politician Of the
worst stripe, appointed. But the Presi-
dent stands by Wanamaker, aud Field
will be made postmaster. He meets the
requirements laid down by The Phladel.
phid Ledger, and Is "a man noted for his
ability, his intelligence, his probity Of
character, his success in the management
Of his own affairs or the affairs Of others,
either public or private, intrusted 10 his
care and direction"
Boss Quay, OF Philadelphia, while still
smarting under the rebuff and rcbuke
meicd 10 him by his political scholar Wan
amaker, told tales out Of school," Ono
Of these was TO the effect that Wanamaker
did not subscribe 500, 900 TO the campaign
fund, o the half or quarter OF il. lie
contributed only s25, 900 and secured the
rest Of the 800, 600 from friends in New
York aud Philadelphia. Half OF this sum
was turned over TO the treasurer Of the Re-
publican National Committee, the other
half was placed in bets against nearly equal
amounts Of Democratic money, and with
NhihihahNi ho Achko dnd touhtnl.
Quay managed to put up the $500. 900
against $40, 0O0of Democratic money. lie
won, and turned over the 500, 900 to
Wanamaker after the election, together
with $4,000 by way Of a dividend on the
original investment. Quay consequently
holds that the party does not owe Wanna
maker a cent, and that he was undcr no
obligation TO recommend him TO Harrison
for a Cabinet office. What n confession
and exposure is this Of 80 righteous n sun
