The appointment of General Gresham to the treasury portfolio is another instance of the wise appointments to office made by President Arthur.

Contiast the stupid utterences of Cleveland with the speeches of Blaine on his trinmphal journey through the west. Mr. Cleveland reassured the farmers at the Elmira fair that "the soil always remained with them" and now he writes a labored letter to Senator Thurman the burden of which is that the Republican party baa been too long in power. Not one word in the few utterances Cleveland has dared make showing his views on the issues of the campaign. On the other hand Mr. Blaine is forced by enthusiastic crowds to speak many times a day but he never fails to utter words of wisdom and his ringing speeches are greeted by his intelligent heareis with wild applause. In a word it is a contrast between a man wholly unfamiliar with public matters and a statesman, who for twenty-five years has had sound and pronounced views on every national issue. Z+i.'

Some person, acting in the interest of Mr. Cleveland, has made away with the sworn vouchers on which he drew large sumB from Erie county for the last part of his term as sheriff. There is in existence, however, an official record of .the fact that Grover Cleveland, in the year from October 1, 1871, to September 30, 1872, charged the county of Erie for 863 days' personal service in attending the courts of that county, notwithstanding the fact that for a considerable part of that twelve months no court was in •session. Attached to the bill, which contains, among other charges, that of 863 days' sorvice in one year, is a sworn affidavit, of which the following is a copy: S&M State of New York, Erie County, sa:

Grover Cleveland being duly sworn says that the items of annexed account are correct, and that the disbursements and services charged therein have been in fact made or rendered, and that no part of said account has been paid or satisfied.

In Chicago of course it is natural to expect much that is odd and grotesque in married life, because in Chicago married life has less of the soleminty and seriousness of that happy state. In Chicago marriage and divorce have come to be synonymous terms and for a price and a half one gets with his marriage license a decree in divorce. In Chicago people live faster, die earlier aud pass from memory quicker than elsewhere. Nothing in the details of a divorce suit in Chicago could surprise one much less cause a shock to those traditional ideaB of the propriety and sacredness of the lioly tie which is the, corner stone of our social foundation.

There may be, however, developments in these divorce proceedings which are worthy of passing notice. Indeed that fact is established when a Chicago newspaper, accustomed to excluding from its columns reports of such proceedings because they do not furnish any element of news in the real meaning of the word, gives space to the details of a suit for divorce.

Under the heading "She Dahced the Racquet" there is a report of the testi mony in one of these suits. The wife sued for a divorce preferring the formal grounds of abuse and incompatibility and no doubt would have secured her end in the usual ten minutes had she not foolishly entrusted her case to lawyers, who were not aware that it is equally as Important to suppress evidence in the possession of their own witnesses as it is to adduce those portions which tend to make their case strong. If Mrs. Cole's lawyers had contented themselves with proving abuse and incompatibility they would have gotten a verdict for their client and avoided newspaper publicity. But no, they went into extraneous channels, so to speak. They proved that Mrs. Cole's health was injured because she was compelled to live in rooms hung in "arsenic green." They went further and brought in Mrs. Cole's sister who testified that she knew of the occasion when Cole spanked his wife for using up all the cream at the breakfast table. The witness had been shown the marks of the spanking afterward. On another occasion Mrs. Cole objected to the flat they lived in. Cole said they were good enough for a tramp like her. The witness objected to her sister being called a tramp, as Bhe was a near relative of Sir Joseph

GBOVEB CLEVELAND.

Sworn before the undersigned this 1st day of October, 1872. W. L. G. SMITH, Notary Public.

Referring to these missing vouchers the New York Tribune says: It is probable, and may yet be put in proof, that Grover Cleveland did not attend court within that twelve months, and that when it was necessary for the sheriff to be present he was represented by his deputy, for which an extra charge was made. Therefore, while Sheriff Cleveland unwarrantably stretched the Gregorian calendar, if not his conscience, he at the same time secured $2,587 from tho taxpayers to which he was not entitled.

On the day that Grover Cleveland made charge of $650 for hanging Patrick Morrissey lie also charged for his personal attendance at various courts. 'It was in this same twelve nlonths, when he was rapidly accumulating Wealth at the public expense, that he charged the county of Erie twenty-five cents for a contribution to a poor carrier boy and Beventy-five cents for a brush and comb for his own use, and made other similar charges. Such is the kind of a man that the Democratic party would like to make president. If the vouch ers showing his charges for the last fourteen months of his term as sheriff were not missing the public would probably learn something of peculiar interest about this bogus reformer,

by default after the "arsenic green" hangings had been brought in. He therefore introduced evidence which, if it tiiil not controvert the "arsenic green" hangings testimony, certainly did show that Mrs. Cole was none too good for any hangings except those that are generally reported in the newspapers on Saturday mornings as occurrences of the previous day of ill omen. Witnesses testified that they heard Mrs. Cole declare that she had no respect for Cole and could not live with him that she kept posted by her lawyers just how to act, and that she kept a diary of his acts so she could have her storv straight when she applied for a divorce and alimony. They also thought it very unladylike in Mrs. Cole to dance the racquet in the parlors as she had often done for the amusement of the company. One witness said that while playing cards one evening Mrs. Cole became disgusted with the hand dealt her, and went iuto an alcove, which was separated from the room by lace curtains only, and undressed and went to bed. Ttiere were several gentlemen and ladies in the room, and Mrs. Cole's disrobing was witnessed by all present. One witness said he saw Mrs. Cole jump upon her husband while he was lying on a lounge and bite his nose because he would not get up and entertain bis company. The witness did not know whether she was angry or not. Perhaps Cole did.

As if this were not enough to convince any twelve men or any one judge that these two persons never ought to have married, there was evidence that Mrs. Cole said she would go back and live with Cole if he would settle $20,000 on her. No doubt her proposition waived the "arsenic

green"

hangings. At last

accounts the courts was struggling with this extraordinary divorce case. No wonder corn goes up to eighty cents in Chicago when wheat is far below that price, and less wonder that Chicago is the laughing stock of the world for its shameless divorces, which cause foolish marriages, and thus make manifold the separations of man and wife. Anything is possible in such a place, where the people apparently try to be eccen trie in their business and domestic affairs, and to advertise themselves and their fast city. „ilv 3

A CLERGYMAN SPEAKS OUT.

The Kev. Dr. Behrends of Brooklyn's Central Congregational Church Rebukes the Defenders of the Buffalo

Cleveland Scandal. New York Sun. Tne Christian at Work prints this extract from the sermon on Sunday by the Rev. Dr. Behrends of the Central Congregational church of Brooklyn:

I have comparatively little interest in matters that are purely political, and I yield to no one in sensitiveness as to the introduction into the Christian pulpit of questions that concern the public policy or methods of administration but neither can I consent to divorce religion and morality or relegate questions of personal ethics to th% judgment of political conventions. And when, in the daily press and on the platform, the grossest vices, whose general practice would disintegrate society in generation, are openly apologized for or made the occasion of cheap and vulgar witicism, and the claim iB unblushingly made that a man's private life is no bar to his election by the suffrages of a great Christian people to the highest office in their gift, I feel that my manhood is insulted, and my resentment is instant and emphatic.

It is not my purpose to fan the firee of political passion, but as a lover of domestic pbrity, and as a minister of righteousnsee, I am bound to say that ballott boxes cannot legislate the seventh commandment out of existence.

The defence and perpetuation of African slavery cost us dearly, and the fierce thunderbolts of God smote the chains our hands would not unloose but the enemies that from every quarter, from the Atlantic seaboard and from the Rocky Mountains, assail the honor of women and the peace of onj homes would, if harbored by us, subject us to even fiercer judgments.

Govenors and senators and presidents should be made to understand that the tan commandRents are for them as well as for the masses, that their private lives are legitimate matters of public inquiry, and if this question must be fought out at the polls, it might as well be done in the current year as at any later period.

AN OLD-TIME RUSTIiEK.,

A Man Who Took Everything in Camp but the River. Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. "Oh, yes, there were great 'riiitlers' those days in California," remarked the old '49er. "You see the gold had about played out in '69, and sharp men had a hard time making a living, for everybody all of a sudden commenced to get poor. I and six others were working for an old fellow named Col Friday, who lived in a great barracks of a house on the Mokelumme River. It was all that was left of old Mokelumne City. Friday had been rich once, but now the old man was poor aB Job's turkey, aud all he had was flatboat, an old horse, that wreck of house and a pretty young wife that he'd picked up the Lord knows where or how. The old man was trying to make a living cutting willow cordwood and floating it down in his flat to Sacramento. We fellows cut the wood for him at 75 cents a day and chuck. One night there came along an old-time 'rustler.' He 'lowed he'd never worked and he never intended to. He didn't have a cent, but we all slept on the floor wherever we pleased in our own blankets,'and he borrowed a blanket and did the same. For two or three days the 'rustler' didn't do anything but borrow tobacco and get credit at the whisky jug old Col. Friday called his 'bar/ Then a fellow came in from the Son Joaquin wheat-fields, where he'd been harvesting, pretty flush. He was nippy sort of a fellow and thought he'd like to be a great gambler. Tte rustler" took him under instructions. Somebody had given him a cigar, and he put that np against a short-bit of the harvest hand's money and won. They played two days and a night steady, and then the "rustler" had all the money of the man that came in from the San Joaquin—'bout $50, I reckon—so he went to work and made him a faro box out of an old cigar box marked out a lay-out with apiece of charcoal on a board and opened business. In two days he owned everything we had in the world, and on onr backs to boot, and the jug of whisky was empty. Then, when no one had anything more to bet, the "rustler lay around yawning for a day or two while we fellows went to work chopping wood and debating if we hadn't better go through

him and chuck him into the Mokelumne. We'd got the flat boat all loaded for a trip to Sacramento by the third night after he'd closed his cigarbox'bank, and we'd about determined to drewn the "rnstler" before we started for Sacramento in the morning. Well, when the morning came we looked in vain for the "rustier." The cuss had taken the flat boat, put the old horse and jog on it, loaded up his plunder that had once all been ours, and with him, had sailed away. The boat would get to Sacramento long before we could foot it there, and there wasn't an animal within miles, lb as he had a good eight hours' start, we knew he was safe enough. I saw the old colonel sitting on a stump, contentedly chewing tobacco and looking at his old, bankrupt wickkyup, so I went to him and said for consolation, 'pretty tough, Colonel.' Bat the old man look ed contented enough and only said, 'Thank God he didn't take the river, too we've got lots oi water left.'"

THE DOVER XONNBL.

Captain Earii Believes England and France Can Be United by Its Means, New York Tribune.

Captain James B. Eads, the wellknown engineer, arrived in this city yesterday on the Sprvia. He has been spending several months in Europe, and has during that time been consulted by the promoters of the CalaisDover Tunnel. In conversation with a Tribune reporter he said: "A tunnel under the Straits of Dover is absolutely practicable, in my judg ment, and that was the opinion I expressed to Sir Edward Watkin, the manager of the Great Eastern railroad, who is one of the prominent English promoters of the scheme. Already the preliminary boringp have been made for a distance of a mile and a half on the English side and a mile and three-quarters on the French side. From the nature of these borings it is evident that no serious obstacles to the construction of the tunnel may be feared. As you know, however, an obstacle has arisen which even science can not avail against. The English nation, speaking through parliament, has decided that no tnnnel may be made to connect two nations. They refused the power to proceed with the work when it was formally applied for, and there the matter rests. It seems to me that the fears entertained of the tunnel ever being used dis advantageously to England in case of hostilities are unfounded." "Were you not consulted also as to the Manchester Ship canal "I was examined before a committee of the house of lords as to the efl'ec such a canal would have, if constructed as proposed, on the estuary of the River Mersey." "What conclusion did you arrive at?" "I showed them that it would completely ruin the estuary and in consequence the commerce of Liverpool. I proposed, as an alternative, a canal having a different course, which would have no effect upon the Bands of the estuary. The whole question is one of exceeding interest to the commercial men of this port." "What are your immediate plans?" "I am going as soon as possible straight through to the City of Mexico to look after my interest there, brought over with me a model of the Teh nan tepee Ship Canal, which will be on exhibition at the New Orleans Exposition. After getting] through with my work in Mexico I shall probably go to New Orleans."

Nothing Like Beginning RightNew York Tribune. "Is this seat engaged?" said a rather bright looking, middle-aged lady, stepping up to a gentleman lazily recliningf on aNew York Central car seat. "No, ma'm," said he.

Well, then, I will occupy it if you please." "Certainly," said the gentleman. "But before I sit down," said she, "permit me to say that the weather is verv warm to-day that the air in the car is close that I anhu^eay way to Ro cheater to see my sister that her name is Jones that I have no other relatives there that I expect to return by the West Shore road that the political feeling in our neighborhood is apparen growing for Blaine, and that if woman may be permitted to guess on the subject I think he will be elected.'

As she said the last word she settled into a seat. The gentleman saw the point, and didn't speak a word until the car reached the next station. Then he got out and bought a cigar.
