The New York "World, democratic organ, is attacking the appointment of Dorsheimer to be United States attorney for the southern district of New York. Tammany is mad, and the New York Times, Cleveland's favorite mugwump paper, says all the New York appointments are bad.

According to the statement of a "Parke County Democrat," made in the Gazette, there are many democrats in this district who will be candidates for the congressional nomination. We were aware that a serious opposition to Lamb existed in Vigo, and perhaps Clay county, but did not know that the defection existed in every county in the district until the Gazette kindly made public this "Parke County Democrat's" communicatien.

Fish's Downfall Traced.

Springfield Leader. ^r James D. Fish has' b6en»6entenced to the penitentiary for ten years. He robbed the stockholders and depositors of the Marine National bank of millions of dollars, wrecked General, Grant aud reduced hundreds to poverty, juid as a punishment he is sentenced to ten years' imprisonment eight years of which will be remitted. Fish is an accomplished old rascal. A few years ago he was director of the 'Frisco road, and while under the benign influence, of that great moral and religious institution lie devoted his leisure days and nights in assisting General Fisk, General Passenger Agent Wishart, General Sol. O'Day and Superintendent of Transportation Nichols is organizing Sunday schools and Young Men's Christian associations, and was perfectly happy and a model -of piety, but when he left the virtuous and Christianizing infltftences of these gentlemen^ and the evangelical 'Frisco and associated with bad backers his downfall was rapid. The moral is that no man should quit railroading to engage in banking—if he wishes to go to heaven. ......

The Awful Higgina. iff*

Philadelphia Times. Higgins still keeps the treasury, department in a stew by going about making up and revising an imaginary list of clerks whose decapitation he declares is impending. It should be known that Hi£gins fan neither remove nor appoint any one. He is only kueper of the roll and has no more power to say who shall go or come »han he has over the postmasters of the countrv. But it is Higgins' way to assume to be the dispenser of fate. Apparently he delights to torture people, especially women. It is his way. It may interest the public to know that Higgins is about, half way between fifty and sixty years ofage. If appearances are deceptive they may be in his favor and he may be past sixty. Higgins talks a great deal and is a great romancer. Whether he talks to you or you to him he invarialy looks the other way, and has -a fashion of doubling up his fist and crowding a firiger or two and, perhaps, a thumb besides,' into his mouth.

After several days' hard Vrork and 4 great deal of trouble and annoyance, City Marshal Morrison has finally succeeded in delivering the St. C.air flats of their former miscellaneous occupants. Mr. Robert G. Walker, the last to leave the premises, having, with his recently acquired wind-fall of pension money, purchased property in the north end, left yesterday afternoon. It is confidently expected that within ten days the flats, as a property, will pass into -the hands of Kansas parties, who will remodel the building.

McCullough has "sufficient money keep him in comfort during the .remainder of his life. Besides a note for $10,000 he owns some stoc& in the Boatmen's savings bank of St. Louis, and other property worth from $10,000 to $20,000 more. He is about 50 years of age, and hss been connected with the stage for over thirty years. For many years he has not lived with his wife, though he always provided for her handsomely, and whenever he visited Philadelphia went to see her at her comfortable residence there. He acted with Edwin Forrest-for years, and after the latter's death was manager of a San Francisco theater for a time aud then starred in "The Gladiator," "Virginias," and other tragedies. In the spring of 1864'he made a trip to Europe for his health. He opened his fall season the first Monday of last September, in Milwaukee, Wis., and. while there it was noticed that he forgot his lines, in •many pieces and behaved strangely.

From Milwaukee he went to. Chicago, where he was to play for .two weeks at McVicktr's theattr. While there his condition grew worse", and McVicker canceled his engagement after the first week, and McCullopgh attacked him and tried to beat him. He then was brought east, and his agent canceled all the dates he had made for the season. When the time arrived that he was to Lave opened in St. Louis, some three or four weeks after he left Chicago, McCulIough went to that city, and, as usual, stopped at the house of his friend, Mr. Thompson, of the Boatmen's baiik, arid while there many idiosyncrasies were noticed. Anion, other things out of the ordinary he dii was to kiss cTcrybody in the house, men anl women alike, before sitting-down to 4jis meals. He imagined that he had to play his engagement in St. Louis, and since then has several times gone to theaters under the same impression that he had to play at them. During the past few months he has been nearly all the time in New York, aud has given great anxiety to his friends, as no restraint has been placed upon his actions. Not long ago he was very nearly run over while crossing Broadway. His fits of violence have steadily increased, and his lucid in tervals have been growing fewer and fur ther between.

The Prohibition Farce.

•Portland Cor. Boston Herald. Once in a while some Portland prohibitionist takes a stranger and shows him what he does not know of the town in which he lives, and the reSsult is-an article in some distant paper to prove how successfully prohibition works in Maine. General Dow, if he could have disguised himself, would have done well to take a trip about town yesterday. To begin with, it is an admitted fact that the law has never been so well enforced since this generation came upon the fieid of action as witnin the last few months, by a.democratic city government, too not that democrats love the law more, but this course of action seemed to be business. Next, it will be remembered some of the prohibitionists put forth most agonizing appeals to all concerned to see that the law continued to be obeyed, and they succeeded in getting up such a scare that posts and individuals from mote westerly states brought their own supplies, rathei than stand the chance of not finding any when they reached the Forest City.

But what did they, find when they got there? They found that a great deal of talk had been made And some better feeling Btirred up. They foynd, also, that any man who wanted to pay fifteen cents for ^single drink of whisky which cost' $1.25 per gallon could get a thousand of them. They found nobody was worried about police interference, and that, though some seizures were made or attempted to be made .daiiy,- they did not interfere with the comfort or convenience of the ordinary-man. Any man, except, perhaps, a tramp, could get anything he wanted—the tramp had to go farther, even if he fared no worse.

Scoring a Point on the Autocrat. Boston Globe. -It was not three months ago that Oliver Wendell Holmes said in a letter at the Longfellow memorial service at Bovdoin, that the newspaper reporter is to the social gathering what the phylloxera is to the vineyard. Yet the reporters noticed the other evening that he came over to them and asked if they would like copies of his poem. Rather useful phylloxera, arn't they, Dr. Holmes?

David D. Field—As a conclusion of the whole matter, if I understand this ex planation of your scheme, it is this That the state should tax the" soil arid the soil only that in doing so it should consider the soil as it came from the hands of" the Creatorr without any thing that man put upon it that all other property—in short, everything that man has made—is to be acquired enjoyed and transmitted as at present that the rate of annual taxation should equal the rate of" annual rental, and that the proceeds of the tax should be "applied not only to puiposesof government but to any other purpose that the legislature from time to time may think desirable, even to dividing thenwimong the people at so much a head.

upon to allay apprehension, which the selection of a rebel rttbe h^ad of the interior department excited in the minds of all loyal men. He had, been a gallant, soldier during the war it was" said He had been desperately, wounded. He w»k the pattern of an upright, high-minded gentleman.. He occupied s& his friends asserted, among democrats much the same position that General Logan'enjoys to-day among republicans. He was the idol of the democratic soldiers. In his keeping the interests of the maimed veterans and the widows and the orphans would be safe. There was a^good deal of this sort of talk, I s4y, when General Black assumed the duties of his office He came here, the expectations of evetybody having been raised to a high point as to the tMngs he was going to accomplish, and almost the first thing he did was to try and dismiss from office, with--out' assigning any cknse or giving any. reason for his action^ the daughter of a. brave arid faithful soldier. The storm of indignatipn whieh the proceeding aroused all ov.er the countryr and the detemination which Miss Sweet displayed ori this occasion, caused the administration to' call a reluctant "halt." General

Black was restrained^bnt- for a short time only. The dismissal and discharges in the periston office soon became the talk of the town again. For the last week or two changes haVe been made on a wholesale scale. Examiners* clerks, messengers arid doorkeepers! have been made to walk the plank at a furious rate. In no case does the commissioner deign to as sign a reason for the dismissal.. A clerk who is bold eriough to brave the lion in his den is told in as man words to go to Jerichoi' The mariner of the commissioner is emphatic. He tr^tes no words. He is reform itself. Curiously enough^ this brave and gallarit solBier, this hi^h toned gentleman, this representative of the simonpure article of reform fas^professed by the admiriistratiori), is willing to do a thing of which many a common.soldier and pi ivate would be. ashamed

GenerdlUlack is to-day the only man

who

draws a monthly pension of $1Q0 on the general pension list. There is no other, and there is no higher paid man. If it is taken into' 'consideration that the next highest pOTsion paid is-$72*a month, and that this is paid only to men who require the assistance of on-' •attendant: to walk about, who are blind or crippled to such an extent that they have to be wheeled in chairs, who have become insane by teasqn of the soflering whidi their wounds caused them, or who are otherwise heavily affiicted---then-,: I say, General Black's pension needs some explanation. It will be remembered thai When the thought of selling- the department carriages struck Ms. Lamar, the dreaming reformer, .also insisted -that Mr- Black should': '. dispose of hia This Mr. Black refused to do, on the'' ground, it "was -said at the time, that he had* bieen wounded in the leg, that he was lariie, had swne difficulty in walking, etfc.' He has been therefore, riding about.town iri it ever since, pitied by everybod^"arid admired by some for his refusal to jbiri in the performance of a cheap demagogue's trick. I am sorry to be compelled to spoil that illusion by saying that General Black was never wounded in the leg. I have before me the committee report, upon which con gress granted him an increase of pension. It is seriate rfeport 397, Forty^fifth congress, secorid Seteioni I. quote from it,' because it tells'fetter than I could, f»r* haps, the representations upon- which General Black secttred his pension. .-J "In March, 1862, at the battle of Pea Ridge, Lieutenant-Colonel Black Was shot in the right for«trm, the bullet passing between the bones, about three inches below the ulna, and injuring the elbow joints In December, 1862-, at the-battle of Prairie GroVe, he was shot in the left upper arm. The bone being shattered, resection became neceaefiry, and from that time the am. lias been permanently disabled The wbtfnd inflicted at Pea Ridge apparently hfeftled, but in December following reopetlecL and caused great suffering. After he left the, military service, General Black resumed his professional studies, was soon admitted to the bar, and almost immediately-upon hid admission entered upon »large and lucrative practice, which he continued to enjoy until the year 1874, when, in con--sequenceof the great suffering caused^by tlie wonnd in' his right arm, his health became much impaired,- his person emaciated, and he was constrained to abandon his profession. From the .year 1874 until this day he lias-been an invalid. The wound in his arm has caused the most intense 6uSering, atid.in 1876, in order to save his life, the elbow joint was tesectod. He is now a physical wreck-, maimed and diseased, incapable of any effort and mueh of the ^time confined to his bed. From August, 1865, until 1877, General Black was paid a pteilsion of $30 a month, basedupon the injury to his left arm.. Jn 1877 this was increased to $50 a month because of the Joss of th«i fi'se of the btlrer arm. He riow ftfks 'tbaf the right to $50 per months Jbe recognized from August, 1865. The committee is convinced that the claim is well-founded. A. strong, healthy man, possessing fihelalents aricl great abilij^, ybo *ould have gathered fame and wealth his been stricken in his country's service. He asks the country he served so well tp^give bread to himself and an opportunity to ..educate his children. The committee, however, r&spectfully submit that' instead of granting arrears of pension, congrees ihould recognize the distinguished claims _-of General Black and grant bun a pension of $100 a month, and theref6rfe recommend the passage of the. accompanying bffl."-

Here, then, is a soldier,, a gentleinan, former, drawing pension larger 1. over 25 per cent, than that paid to 220,000 and odd dfaabled veteran?—and ior what? The report f-tates it: /'Because of impaired health, because his person became emaciated, because he yi,as constrained to abandon his profession,..because he is to this day an invalid, bedatlse he is a physical wreck, maimed and diseased, incapable of any effort, because he wants to give bread to his children, and because he wants an opportunity to educate them." And tl»i« man, so incapable of any effort cau draw from the govurnment $5,000 ay ear as comniyisioner of pensions, $1,200 a yc'a.r.as a.pbvr sical wreck, and do some effective work beside in ttirnirigotft of office .lpyal juid patriotic men_aii(T Wplace tlieui witli people like bis deputy, whose record is to be found on thfc butf#^ of the Albiny po-
