While the set-back the Metropolitan police system received—by~ the recent changes in the heads of the "department is not- serious enough. to imperil its efficiency, still there is an -alarming indication that, the.party now in po-wec, ju thp city intenda to be guided bj party considerations in the management of the police of the city..

Superjntphdent Vandever relinquished his claim's upon the police board for a poskion when lie gave as a reason for his resignation that he tlioughlwthe superintendent of police should be in political accord wltff' the'"iiiajorify

u'Tn

TheJrepublicaDs of the city council had much to their credit when they Retired as the majority in that body, and perhaps up one act elicited from the public more hea'rty commendation than the adoption of the present police system, followed by a strict adherence to the spirit of the ordinance that politics was not to interfere in its administration, though the republican party suffered for sticking to the principle at the polls this spring.•Now, however, when the democracy is in power,^politics is allowed to interfere. There is Ao good to come Out of this recognition of the very element that the people had rejoiced to see removed from the policing of the city. But perhaps it it to he charged, up to the account of the democracy whose reckoning we frankly say will be filled with like -blunders by the time the people are again called upon to select their municipal officials.

There could not haye been a better test of the president's calibre than in the appointments he has been called upon to make in several of the important federal offices in New York state.., The coming election increased the difficulties that beset his way. The factions—Irving Hall, Tammany andJ.be County Democracy—were alive to the situation and each,- as is its Custom, was ready to. declare everlasting fidelity or undying hatred. The Mugwumps elevated their ridiculous aititi\d'e of' importance by an increased air of secrecy faintly tinged with threateainga of a bolt unless, their wishes were observed.

It was an. occasion for the Cleveland "we read about." It was a time when the back-bone man -could ^showoit to the admiring populace, that does, not fc^elieve that the sun rises in New York City and sets in Buffalo. It was an'opportunity to follow his inclination to do the best possible thing and trust to bis own wonderful luck, the calm belief 'iix which has giveH him" much of his' reputation* for firmnes? ot character.

The ordeal was too' much for him .He could pass through the trying, perplexities of choosing a foreign minister or a postmaster, but New York politics shook his faith in his own luck and he wobbled when he was( compelled to pass in review. He gave the man whose son-in-law' was the big contractor under Hubert O. Thompson in New York City public improvements, the collectorship. This he thought would "fix" the County De mocracy. Fearing that it would displease the Mugwumps he gave the surveyorship to Burt, who declitied an appointment under President Arthur, (and afterwards voted the' democratic tickct) on the ground, as Harper's Weekly eaid, that thesalafy beiig Jefis than $5,000', he could not live in, that dignified style which, his surroundings called for. But the. Mugwumps were not pleased, however apt they are ,to rejoice in small things and welcome one.. Mugwumpian triumph as the pfecurser at a series of revolutions in the ways of the world! They lost sight of the $5,060 Burt in the .'appointment of Thompson's man, to. be .collector, an appointment which the New Yotk Timcsi the president's "favorite paper," says "will be criticised more severely than any oth$r the president has inaile,. for it is not paturally and conspicuously fit, but one requiring explanation,, elucidation, and even excuses* and palliation." Tammany also sent up a protest and this was followed by an intimation that if Dorsheimer wa# made United States,.s^torney, Tammany might be molliiieiL ,T{ien Dorsheim^r was appointed and the happy family will be on exhibition at the govrnment building in New York City.

And yet no boubt there can be found persons who will quote to you in admiring accents tlu se declarations of Mr. Cleveland about public offices .being a public trust and t^ll you that this is a business administration in which offensively partisan werk on the part of any office-holder will not be tolerated. ».«».v tf

This recognition of party in the control' of the department is a bad sign, and there has been no more conclusive proof of that fact than the crafty worded article in the Gazette of Monday, the purpose of which was to relieve the democracy of the responsibility forVandever's election as captain of police undet L-iivlor, who was promoted fromi the captaincy to be superintendent.

Coombs at once denied having so Bpoken. At Mr. Faris' request. Attorney G. W. ^izer stated 4hat Coombs had told him that "Faris was not- doing the matter justice, either irom-want of ability or indifference," &c.

Senator Ben Harrison and er-Sergeant-at-Arins Bright, of the senate, were sitting comfortably together, Saturday evening in the Bigg's house lobby. "Senator," suggested a reporter, "when Governor Gray was here not long agoJie said .it was as certain as anything could be that the democrats, at the next election, would carry Indiana." "Well," the senator replied in slow tones', "I thibk the governor was expressing his hopes rather than his conclusions. We've no election until next fall a year, and present firing is at too long.a range to hit a mark, which is small and elusive. Theire is neither apathy nor despair

"I think Senator McDonald hit it off with equal frankness and felicity when-he was last here He said to Secretary Manning and other gentlemen, when.the conversation turned on Indiana politics: "There are two parties in my state. One is the republican party, the other is the democratic party, anti every individual member of each is an offensive partisan." "Yes," asserted Senator Harrison, "Joe generally hits the mark."

Her mother's stern command not to

the

engagement was disregarded, and she ran away, Yesterday, wi^h her eyes ^lled with tears, her dress torn and stained, and her blonde hair floating a tangled mass behind lier, she walked up to the house of her father, and, with sob, sank into her mother's .arms. Her story is disconnected- T,he' "ypiinjg Englishman, with whom she weni to take an afternoon stroll, she had seen but three times before. Once he said. his name was Boylen, and afterward t^iat it was Robert Charles. Hp represented, hinjself to be the son of a Wealthy baker in Newark. Lizzie skys the^ walked toother toward BrOad street, in the center of the city. At one of the' livery stables on Bfoad street, the nariie of which she had forgotten, thfc" stranger hired a carriage, purchased some'conrecitionery and together the piir laughed the afternoon away. "It Was groWing dark,' the girl says, and the street lamps in the qity were being lighted again when the innocent child and her companion' drew tup before, a door of tavern which sbfe thinks, was in" Woodside. Her escort stepped' from the carriage and shortly returned with two glasses of liqOor. He handed her one and told her it was champagne. At his urgent request she drained the glass. After that she supposes she fell asleep, for she was

awakened by the Englishman, who as listed her from the carriage. She remembers that he gave the vehicle into the charge of another man, and then, haff dazed, she walked into Fairmont cemetery Iney paused on a knoll overlooking the Paspaic river.' "There' her companion insulted her. Half Beared to death she started jto run. He followed, and she screamed. The river, reflecting the lights of a hundred' gas-jets down the stream, swam befpreher eye. A hundred tall gravestones danced! along, the center* of her vision and she remembered nothing more. When she awoke she was jalone. The villain had fled.

It was still dark, She started, frightened and trembling,'to find the entrance to the cemetery, After an tour's tiresome 8earch,"a hundred tumbles over the' boxwood rows and as mkhy frights from the shadws, of the tombstones, she made her exit.4 'Afraid" to return home she wandehed thn^u^h' the streets all night and in the mOrning went to the house of a schoolmate, Louf&a Kridtt, on Camden street. She remained with" Louisa tintil yesterday,.' concealing the cause of her grief. Mr. Kri'del. forced heir to iteturn home.
