To which the Boston Tost bays: "Prohibition is a great success in some parts of Maine, and in other parts it is not. As to Bangor's chief hotel, its bar is a9 open W any in ritbsburg or Boston, and there are a hundred more just such bars in the city." Hers is some impertinence from John A. 58303, of Iowa, now our Minister at Berlin : 'Beslis, Dec. 18. The report of cheering lor Cleveland at the American Thanksgiving banquet here was a willful falsehood. "Kassox." Next Thanksgiving Day we imagine there will be Eomt "cheering for Cleveland" in Jlerlin. Lo;s compared his defeat to the boy Who had stumped his toe he was "too big to cry and it hurt too bad to laugh."

Thiri is an attempt made in tLe Commercial Gazette, by a Republican Bourbon, to get up a scare by intimating that old Jeff Davis may get back to the United States Senate.

President and Secretary of the Jackon Club, of Coiiiiubus, Obio: Your letter of invitation is couched in 'Fach earnest tones that I can not refuse' to avnswer you with ample mutuality.

He made Jefferson's inaugural. Which is only next to the Declaration of

Independence, beyond all language beautiful and truthful and practical reality In our political life. Men who called Jackson a spoilsman know that he was a spoilsmaa on one occasion he Bpoiled the English at New Orleans, and perhaps some cotton bags also. With the wish that you may have an oldtime demonstration at Columbus, and with the hope that our new order upon which we are entering may prove a benefaction to all our people of every eection in the bonds of unity and peace, 1 am, as ever, your old Congressman. ß 8 Cox. MEEIT THB PROPER RECOMMENDATION. United States Senators, Congreesmen and ail citiiens supposed to have influence with the incoming Democratic administration are alrtady beeeiged with requests for favors from men wanting ofSce. For each position to be refilled there are numerous applicants. The appointing, powers xnustnecesisrily oe largely advised by others in tiling the thousand of vacancies to occur. The responsibility of tens cl thousands of ap

pointments therefore falls upon leading Democrats of the different States. In this distribution of oces the interests of the Republic and of the Democratic party are identical. It is not alone out of dislike of the political creeds of the Republican party that the country has yoted to retirs it from power: disgust with the ofhctals of that party contributed largely to the revolution, Partisanship rather than honesty and erSciency has been the republican test ifor Iprelerment. There W6re enough trustworthy men in tne Republican party ranks for the occupancy of all public trusts, but it was tbe men who could be trusted to subordi nate the public good to party ends that were often selected. When a hoet of the lat ter class had brought the party into cdinm resort was had to other knaves, whose chi canery be d application of 'soap" were ex pected to counterbalance the disaüection of honest Republicans. There is much general talk of a "success ful" Democratic administration. That boon means the passage and enforcement of wise measures, and an honest and efficient ac counting of public officers. The latter is no less comprehended than the former in a suc cessful administration. It becomes, then, Our Democratic sponsors for applicants for cilice to exercise care in making recam mecdations. The Democratic party will strengthen itself with the people at large in proportion to the respectability, integrity and capability of its officeholders. The mere fact that an ap plicant for place is a Democrat does not con stitute a claim upon the party. He may have been a "hustler" during the campaign, and yet not possess Eome very essential qualities which should enter into a public officer. There are Republican dead-beats and there are Democratic dead-beats: neither are fit to be honored with govern mental trusts. There are in both parties a class of fellows who make themselves conspicuous on all possible occasions, spout of their influence with voters, and at the end of the campaign claim recognition, when in reality their effect has been to almost disgust the patriotic and honest with the parly tolerating them. While good citizens were actuated by principle, these shallow charac ters were moved solely by sinister motives. To insure a successful administration the Democratic party shoul ignore such of these gentry as come to the front for office. Their recognition would be insulting to the honest masses. "Kven their plea of influence is fallacious. The Influential men are the res nected men. and the respected men are the true men. In no way can President Cleveland's ad vieers so strongly promote the success of his administration as by recommending only orthy citizens for office-holdings. HOW SPEECHES ARE MADE. There is an attempt being made in Congress to stop printing speeches in the Congressional Record that have never bee a delivered. This is an abuse that has grown up within the la3t four j ears, because nobody seems to have given the matter any attention. The discussion has brought cut a lauehable incident, which is related by a Chicago Tribune correspondent, which refers to a speech manufactured by a Bohemian that was sold to two representative? from Ohio and printed in the Record. A member of the "literary lobby" wrote a speech for Hon. William Allen, far which he was promised 70. When he delivered it to Mr. Alien that gentleman handed him 50. "Twenty-five more," was the demand of the "literary feller." "Not another blanked cent," was the reply. "Then return the speech," persisted the author, whose name is unfortunately lost. Allen would neither pay more nor raturn the manuscript. April 24, 1802, the House being In Committee of tbe Whole on the state of the Union, Mr. Allen appears to have delivered his speech, and it is printed on page 11U of the appendix of the Congressional Globe, part 4, with the heading, "Confiscation of Rebel Property." The anther of the speech evidently retained a copy ot it for on page 2S0 it appears to have been delivered May 2G 1SG2, by tbe Hon. R. H. Nngen, also of Ohio. The only differences discoverable are changes of a few words, and the shortening of the version given to Mr. Nagen. History does not relate which of the two Ohio statesmen was the maddest when the doubledealing of the literary person was discovered. A HOOSIEB PATRIOT. Tbe Sentinel la constrained to descant briefly upon the rooster. To .other papers the rooster may not appear as a bird of un nsual Importance, but he has figured before the editorial eyes of the Sentinel to art ex tent, of late, as to call for extended notice. The Impression has been made upon us that rooster growing must be an industry of no small dimensions in Hoosierdom. We give it as our opinion that there is at least one farm for their propagation In each township in the State. We are furthermore convinced that aowhere in chickendom do rooster grow larger than in Indiana. Should an international rooster exposition be organized in Turkey, Guinea or any other country, we will be ready to pit Indiana's products against any in the world. And not only in size, but in variety of colors da Hoosier roosters challenge mentloD. There are black roosters and white, red roosters and yellow, brown roosters and grey, spotted roosters and speckled, with varying shadei from sheeny luster to caliginoua dullness. A familiar adage, "Birds ot a feather flock together," may be responsible for our recent

extensive observation of roosters. It will be

remembered that beginning with the morn iDg of November 5, that succeeding tbe election, tbe Sentinel perched a large rooster upon Its first pegs and continued it in po sition for nearly a fortnight. Days before it was taken down other roosters began com ing in to k ep it company. They came by express, by wagon and by hand. Dele gations from several counties brought roosters and made presentation addresses to the Sentinel. Scarcely less eloquent than the latter were many letters appended to the necks of the birds. A specimen of the latter, just received, is here given: Bs7iL, Clay County, Ind., De?. 23. Mr. Job ii C Shoemaker, EJltor aad Proprietor fcenuuei: Era I take pleasure upon this annlversy day of "peace on earth and good will to men," in presenting you with, a rooster which stood sentinel during the recent campaign, forty feet, upon a Democratic po'e erected in front of my place of business. Now that cold weather compels that he be taken down, I desire to transfer him to the possession of the editor of the leading Democratic paper of the fctate. This rooster waa batched during the Bitting of the last National Democratic Convention. Yours truly, JOBCT Q. ACKEXICIF.K. As with this last rooster every one received by the Sentinel has been Democratic: they have come crowing over the triumph of the Demccracy and over the part the Sentinel took in tbe contest. And so it is that the Sentinel has come to esteem the Indiana roceter as a veiy patriotic bird. CLEVELAND'S POLICY. Senator Garland has been In tervlwed regarding his recent visit to Mr. Cleveland. He said he was not offered a cabinent position, as has been widely belitsd. Everyone seerqs to think that the CoTemor must necessarily tender a position to whoever he in vites to a conference with him. He thinks Mr. Cleveland's motive in conferring with leading lemocrats is to gain information regarding other prominent Democrats of equal standing and character. To the qu63 tion as to Cleveland's policy the Senator answered: "Perhaps I can best answer that question by quoting the concluding words of our interview. I arose to go. He grasped me by the hand warmly, and said : "Be good enough to say to your friends in Washington that it Is my desire to give to the country a clean and able administration, which I propose Bhall be aggressive and progressive in the purest and best sense of the word. I do r.ot intend to surround myself with men whose faces are turned to the past. I shall have seats in my cabnet only for men who stand well up to the liae in modern advancement and thought,' This is ell that Senator Garland had to say about Mr. Cleveland's policy, but to an other person the President-elect remarked concerning his inaugural: "It has been suggested that the inaugural address will have some of the character of a message in outlining my policy, but I hardly think much is expected in that line beyond a very general statement of the principles that will govern my action. A good deal has been said about a 'Southern administration,' and I suppose some people are looking forascr ances that we are not to have the Govern ruent run in the interest of a section. The way I look at it is that no part of the conn try is to be treated any differently from any other part Efforts have been made to raise a false alarm on this matter. I think it is the duty of every patriotic man to frown down any such sectional issues." THE DIFFERENCE. An old hotel man of Washington City thus notes the difference between Democrats and Republicans in the habits ot drinking: 'A Democrat will stand at the bar and quench his thirst, but a Republican wants to sit down in a back room. The former ! tat ts whisky straight, the latter wants mixed drinks cr wine. Democrats will drink in battalions, but Republicans prefer solitude or seclusion and linger over their liquor, talking about business and how to secure or defeat certain measures." The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, who gives the information, remarks: "The straightforward habit ef tbe Dernscr.it and the intriguing method of tie other are thus aptly illustrated in their convivial moments." It was at this bar that Congressman Finnerty was once drinking a bottle of Bast' ale, and was asked how with his prejudices he could buy British ale. "It is a pleasure sometimee," said Mr. Finnerty, "to be able to swallow your enemy," The same correspondent gives further information regarding ''drinking" ia the National Capital : "There was a time when the aroma of peach brandy filled the Senate cloak room, but it is said now that the Btr-geant-at-Arms is requested toenforce the role prohibiting spiritoua liquor to invado the precincts of the Senate. There is a tradition that it is sometimes kept in locked clot e'J of committee rooms, but only those who know this to be true really believe the story. No one would ever suspect Senator Kdmunda could play a joke on anybody but the marble statues in the niches around the Senate chamber, but he is credited with once offering Mr. Hiyes a thin glass filled with gin when he asked for a glass of apollinaris water. The President was about to drink it, but recognised, he said, the juniper aroma and putitaown with the remark that he would like to drink it, but the gin had an awful clinging smell, yet there was no other liquor so like the color of water. 'That ia why I thought you would permit yourself to be deceived,' was the grave and frigid Senator's reply." Tut farcers of Nebraska are in severe need of "protection." Their losses by hog cholera this season, it ia estimated, will foot up fully $2,000,000. There ia virtually no market tor their corn, and as the staple corutunds but twelve cents per bushel while coal sells at twenty-two cents, they are endeavoring to kaep themselves phveicatlv comfortable bv j burning the corn. Their mental temperature ?a prooaoiy su uicientiy torrid roi all practical purposes. Abont the nnlf ti.TiA man rieben Vi seat to woman in a street car. The treatment of rheumatism and neuralgia through the blood, by the expulsion of the poisonous acids therefrom, has brought relief and cure in those supposably incurable cases known as chronic, and where age was said to defy ordinary treatment. Mr. W. L. .eynionr. of Williston, Vt.t writes: "end three bottles of Athlophoros as soon as this is received. My father, aged eighty-seven, has for weeks been badly atlected with rheumatism. He was relieved of all pain in less than twenty-four hours alter he began taking the remedy."

To feed this universal appetite for information about him gives the American journalist a considerable element of his contemicrary labor. What wonder, therefore, that the chronicler subscribed finds himself in the good city of Albany, ranging about to learn as much as possible of "the man whom the people delight to honor?" EEAUTIFLL A LT AKT. This Albany Is verily a most interesting place to visit, independently of the associations which it now possesses, as the official home of the present Governor of New York Slate, the man who, on March 4, lSö, will be sworn in as President of the great republic. In natural beauty ef position it is the most favored, rising nearer and nearer still to the blue heavens from the lovely and historic Hudson. The tcene is majestic a city of fine dwellings, showing in frequent variety, public buildings of imposing architecture, and from all points of observation, in its peculiar and conspicuous grandeur, the vast Capitol building. THE STORY OF THE CAI'ITOU Albanians xossess as the chief ornament of their city this splendid pile, yet Incomp'ete and unpaid for, which an old-school local statesman described to be "a public calamity," seeing that the entire community of the Empire State must pay to finish and maintain its amazing superiority to all other State structures of the kind. Perhaps the opinion of Mr. Clarence Cook with regard to it more aptly embodies that view of vast public expenditures made lor the purpose of securing enduring expressions ot genius, which is taken by the cultured reader: "There is nothing like a great architectural undertaking, with its implied accompaniments of sculpture and painting, to create a love of art in a community, and New York has the proud distinction of being first of the States of the Union to have lighted in her Capitol a beacon fire that shall call all the arts together and set them at work in noble tasks for her behooL" More than twenty-one years ago a Senator of New York took the initial step towards the result magnificently towering above this fair city. He proposed the procuring of plans for a new Capitol, and his proposition was carried IHK VKKMDRHT-K1.KOT Oil HJ VlY TO TUE OvriTOU From 17'jT Albany had continued to be the Capital of the State, but now other cities csgerly sought the distinction. New York especially. J n 18 however, the matter was Beitied in favor of the possessor of the privilege, and the next year excavating was begun looking towards the erection of a b sliding not to cost more than ft.OOO.OOO. On July 7, 1803, the foundation stone of the projected edifice was laid, and June 2i, 1571, amid teeming rain, the Grand Lodge of Free and. Accepted Masons, with twenty thousand people around them to admire their "mystic and wonderful" ceremonial, laid the corner-stone. Early in 1870, the baildirgwas first used as a seat of legislative wisdom. On January 7, in the same year, the Senate met on the second floor, In a room temporarily adapted for their use, and the Assembly in their own splendid chamber, one artistically lit for delibertions of the gods. Formal occupation, with proper popular rejoiciugs ws, however, deferred until February 12. It was not until March 10, LVS1, that the Senate first sat in their own chamber, one of the most lavishly and curously adorned rooms in tbe world; and only fn Janury last did the Court o? Appeals make its quaters in the sutnptuou edifice, which has cost already abont $15 0, 000 more or less, and will certainly cost an other f,000,000 before it will be completed. It covers more than three acres of ground, is in tbe styie known as Free Renaissance, has an exterior ot granite, and its interior is diversified with a most surprising variety of stone, decorations, carved and painted, and e fleets bizarre or artistic, cheerful or impressively solemn. It ia a "blending of all beauties," which, however aptly it may represent the comprehensive scope of modern culture, is almost entirely unappreciated by a considerable section of the men sent to Albany to legislate, yht appregiatioa cn iure U wrd

But the Capitol is being built for tbe ages, and the thoughts of men are still widening with the process of tbe suns. To dwell at eome length on the Capitol is due to its majesty and beauty, especially so, as the illustrious gentleman whose election determines the subject of this letter, spends the greater part of his time within its walls. GOV ERROR CLEVELAND'S BOOM. The Executive Chambers arc situated in the southwest corner on the second entrance fiocr of the Capitol. Grover Cleveland's room measures sixty feet by forty feet Its walls are wainstcoated with mahogany to the height of from fifteen to sixteen feet The rich wood is arranged in square pannels surmounted with a band of carving and a carved moulding above. Between this and the ctiliogs are hangings of Spanish leather in colden brown, red and blue. The panelled ceiling is of the same wood as the wainscoting, in panels, each surrounded by appropriate carvings. Governor Cleveland sits at a desk of enormous dimeasions, opposite his Secretary. It is an inter estiD tbiDc; to await his arrival in the moraiDg, one of the crowd moved by curiosity, interest or official zeal to seek an interview with him. nOW HS KZOXIVE.-. VISITORS SVCBI5f. THE TEDIOl'S. The Governor arrives in a turn mtnnli

after 0, entering the room from a private j passage, alter waiting a moment to adjust his neck gear in an adjacent dressing room. He takes no notice of anybody on his way, steming net to observe the assembled peap e, and makes a "bee line" for his accustomtd chair at the desk. Thereupon the visitor with the courage necessary to lead, proceeds to seat himself next the Governor, and relate what he has to say, his auditor listening with patient respect to the narration, that is, provided it is not ot excessive length. Should this prove to be tbe case, the first evidence of Mr. Cleveland's impatience ta the atrempt to brace the tips of his r!rgersonone hand aeaiost the tips of his fit person the other hand. Their not comiDg together exactly induces a frown, which ran net be misunderstood by the visitor who has an average bestowment of wit, bat, if not heeded by the person destitute of it, is succeeced by a gesture of impatience which surely must enlighten the dullest as to its meaning. This is, generally speaking, taking up a pen examining it and tossing it back on the desk. The callers with confidential communications being die posed of one by one, ths Governor walks around the rcom Ehakicg hands with everybody, and I.IECTENAKT liOVERXOR HILL ADDEESSLNO TUE SEX ATE. expending a few words of pleasant greeting rn each person. Business then proceeds, official correspondence of course taking tbe Cast place in matters to be dispatched. ni ABOLISHING lORMALITT. The whole of this receptio n business takes up much less time than one would suppose. It is a departure from recent pre-Cleveland dispemations. Within a short period of time back to call upon the Governor was a treat and fearful matter to all but a favored few. The visitor's card underwent investigation by a small regiment of officials before it reached tbe great man and secured the object intended by its use. Governor Cleveland's dispensing with abolishing all this formality has actually promoted and not hindered the business of tbe Executive Department THE EXECUTIVE MAKSIOS A XI) THE I.VbV WHO rBESIDKS IS IT. The President-elect's home, known as the Executive Mansion, must not be confounded with that portion of the Capitol set apart lor the Governor's occupancy. It is by far the most pretentious of the many buildings in Albany which have been cccupied as the residence of tbe chief iusn in the commonwealth; standi well backen the street, on an elevation, and is a pleasing struct n re. It wi boueht by the State in 1377. Governors Tilden.'Robinson, Cornell and Cleveland have occupied it Mrs. Hoyt sister of Mr. Cleveland, generally presides at his hospitalities. She is much assisted by Miss Cleveland, and two young ladies, nieces. It is rather more than half a mile between the Executive Mansion and the Capitol. With proper regard for his health and wealth the Governor invariably walks the distance, whatever may be the state of che weather. iOV:r.Non tLKvr.LANo avo the sen 50 amPREN.

Th well-assorted pair will continue on precisely the same tooting as now obtaics between them in the larger f There of labor to which the votes of the people have called the more ditlnecished man of the two; the promotion of Mr Cleveland will be by equal steps the promotion ot Mr. Lamont As now in Albany, I ventare to irophesy that the two will be often seen arm in arm traversing the streets of Washiozfon.

A1JIANT I'AST A HP 1'SnSESr.

Old Dutch edifices here and there remind of the origin of the city, the first building of which was raised us long ago as lGl i. The Staats House is the oW-.est structure. Part of it was erected in 1G-7. Things Dutch did not pass away became in ltJi Beavsrwvck became Albany, and tbe property of the English in place of the sturdy Hollanders who had founded it. In the Sunday-School of the First Reformed Church er still f seen a pulpit, hour glass and Bible nsed Uk years by pastors. Services were conducted in the Dutch language in the church until the year 172. The germ of American naion was planted in Albany by Benjamin Franklin inl7il,when the coicnies of New York. Massacbneettc, New Hampshire, Connecticut. Rhode Island, Pecnsylva.ia and Maryland were represented in a plan of union proposed by the illustrious Philadelphias Aaron Durr had an ilice and practiced '.aw in the city, which has been tbe Capital of the State ever since 171C, and is the oldest surviving European settlement in the thirteen original States. Its population of nearly one hundred thousand inhabitants live in great aDparent comfort in a well-kept city. They pray in nearly Bixty cuurches, many of which present exceedingly fine architectural features. Club-houses, especially that of tue Adelphi Club, with its 120 members, are indeed metropolitan in their convenient and elegant appointments. But Albany has no public art gallery outside of one provided by aa enterprising firm of picture merchants. Wealth is represented in many ways; by concentration in seven National and two State banks. Brewing was an industry of Albany as loig ago as 1C3:, and the fame of it3 ales is widespread, but still obscured by the overwhelming reputation ot its lager beer, an Albanian product only since 1S7S. Three elegant bridges over the Hudson assist the fine effect common to all the many views to be had of the city from its numberless suburban drives and walks, which charm with quiet beauty or surprise with picturesque magnificence. What city breathingplace is lovelier then Washington Park, from which the best drives radiate, eightyone acres in area, ornamented with trees ot large size, and having a lake with five acres of glasEy surface, and artificial features which have cost the municipality approaching a million of dollars ? fome yor.LE miriv;?. Ot public builldlngs in Albany, the City Hall is second only to tbe Capitol in grandeur.

The fine old State Hall is still used by certain departments of the Mate Government When they shall lef.ro for the Capitol, the Museum of Natural B Li cry will be removed from inadequate qu&uers to the vacated building. The new Normal School to be open d in May next attracts the admiration of the visitor, who sees, moreover, evidecces of Albanian cnlture and refinement in the noble building used as an observatory. The fine State Library is located in the Capitol. Among many interesting things to be seen in it are the identical papers found on Major Andre when he was captured, and a sword, pistol and set of survey ing Instruments used by the Father of the Country.
