Ho continued: "Iq 1879 Jim Keen aad Jesje Hoy t. of 7ew York, got acorner in December, and wheat was worth $1 31, but the next month It took a tumble and fully 3.000.000 wae lost on the deal. Since that time wheat hasn't heea worth much money, and since England feele dispose to throw up the tpong the outlook for high prices is very diamai." Jin.

The situation, he aaid, in which the Democratic party finds itsalf with the advent of this administration is exceptional, and the expectations of reward for party service that might have been realized four or eight years ago can not be gratified now. The sentiment of the country seems favorable to the policy that has been adopted by Mr. Cleveland, and It seems doubtful If any other could be followed for the future good of the party. It meeta with the accord of the wisest counsellors of the Democratic party, and in time the great may. es of the party will adopt a similar view. Mr. Hendricks gcei from here to New York."

Becauee the public money Is all found intact in the Treasury vaults at Washington is no evidence that the Republican party contained no "ra'caU" during its administration cf tha Government.

It waa a very disgraceful affair, and Conger eeeret to ha. 4 been about the biggest toad In the puddle. Affidavits have bjen made charging him with alleged bribery in connection with getting himself sent to the Chicago National Republican Convention as a 1 delegate. He says, in regard to the aropojed charges: "I did not expect to remain in my position tinder a Democratic President. I have been In ofSee now seven weeks longer than I expected to be. No, I hive not resigned, cor do I Intend to.

UPHOLD THE ADMIIJI3TR Ä.TIOM. ICevtr was there a time when Democratic patriotism eo strongly demanded as now that the party uphold the arm of a national administration. A few disappointed men wit hi a the party are jeciizgts create Echisi8 within its ranks. They are wroth becan.se cf bavins failed to cbttin appointments for themselves or tJ control offices for their favorites. They are fojiiig tbc administration is Dot Democratic bfcatie?, loisuoth, 120, Damocrats have not, within aixty dav s after the inauguration, been substitute J for that number ot Eftublicaa place-holders. .Thsse critics are Irrational. They are foolish enough to fancy that Rome might have been built in a day. These CDreacsalls Democrats would have the vast machinery of the Government precipitated in a day into ths hands of untrained operatives, only provided that the cew operatives be Democrats. The President and Cabinet mart not have time to inquire into the relativ fitness of the various applicants for place?. No consideration xaust be exercised by them for the efUciancy of the several departments cf the public service. The critics ba7e bat one idee change. Let the service be thrown into confusion and the party therery be handicapped in the next election, but, nevertheless change. To carry out the idea the President and the department heasls may be worn to exhaustion and are subjected to liability to mistakes, but those are matters of minor importence compared to a change. TLe result of immoderate haste u.ay throw the affairs cf the Government into confusion, and give our enemies a whip handle over us with which they may drive us to defeat in 13, but such a consummation is welcome provided we are only, at oecc, given a complete change. Now, while the Senticel is as esger as any Democratic critic of the administration to fee Democrats filling the public office?, we jt appreciate that, such can not safely be accomplished in a day nor until the lapse of maty days. It was the reckless filling of clUces by partisans, regardless of cftiiency or honerty, that dUnraced the Republican party arid drove it from power. It wss identically the sume spirit manifested by the D?moeratie critics ot the administration which tte Dimccracy has denounced in Republican adrainistratious. We do not neeitate to sty that should Mr. Cleveland fail, in the end, to fulfill the obligations be ia under to the popular will of the country as expressed by the ballots on tie 4th of November, to giya us a change, then the ßrntinel will befonnd among Lis critics. Butwsbevflno fears of being placed in euch au attitude toward the President. We believe him a Democrat, but a Democrat ambitious to give the country an administration cf its affairs in such noble contrast with the Republican administrations preceding his that the country will be bettered, and the Democratic party thus be deserving of an indorsement of Its reign when 1S8S shall rell around. Certain it is that no schism in the Democratic ranks at this time can strengthen the party. It ia also certain that Mr. Cleveland ia not an executive to be veered from his conscientiously selected policy by the de cry m es of malcontents. The true Democrat and the patriot is he who does what he can to uphold the arm of the administration while it cautiously treads its wey through the intricate mazes cf the vast chasga it has before it for accomplishment. THE CHICAGO POSl'OFFICB. Of course the organs will sputter and roar and squeal and swear over the change in the Chicago Postofhce. They were about settling to the belief tbat the Republican party had a lien on the administration of the Govern meat, and tbat Mr. Cleveland would not dare to make many changes. They would suffer him to occupy the White House Icr four years if he would behave himself. The appointment o! Mr. Jcdd baa created an unmistakable sensation, atd the Republicans want to know where the brick came from that struck Mr. Palmer, the Republican incumbent. "Mr. Palmer's removal," said a member cf the Cabinet, "will be a summary notice to other gentlemen holding Federal positions that their lease of official life is intended to bs very short in all catua where they have been euilty of what is termed 'oSensiye partisanthip.' Offensive partisanship is tbe ground upon which the Postmaster General based Mr. Palmer's removal." Wbat is the opinion of the Postmaster General concerning the chanje? "We proceeded very slowly in the matter," raid Mr. Vilas. "The management of the office was fauitiees. There was no trouble in that reipect. It is the second large tit In the country, and it is in every way fully up to the standard of New York. It was charged some weeks ago that Mr. Palmer had need his office for personal and political purposes, but, as I have aaid we were careful about our facts. We wrote to Chlcage to certain friends cf the administration, who testified to the truth of what we had heard in tbe form of affidavits. We then determined to remove Mr. Palmer without further delay," A Washington telegram says that it is understood that the friends of the administration referred to by Mr. Vilas are Colonel Morrison and John H. Oberly, and that the latter furnished the charges against Mr. Palmer, and that Morrison presented them to the President Morrison consulted with Mr. Oberly, whereupon both gentlemen united in recommending Mr. Judd, who, at the time, had a letter ci file asking for the place. The charges made by Oberly against Postmaster Palmer were, first, that on the day cf the Blaine parade in Chicago he closed his cflice at 4 o'clock in order that the employes of tbe efflce might swell the procession in Blaine's honor; second, tbat he constructed a platform . in front of the omoe for tbe accommodation of his Republican riends, that tbe carpenter who did the work was an employe of the Government, and that the materials used were the property of tbe Government; thirl, that few days prior to tba October electioa ia

Onio. Mr. Palmer eeat certain members of his forte to Cincinnati to act as United Btatea Deputy Marshals, and that these peo t ie were carried free in tbe postal cars between Chicago and Cincinnati upon the supposition that their presence ia Cincinnati was in the line of their legitimate daties. We fchonld think that these charges, it true, make out a cava of partisan oflensiveiiees beyond a doubt. "Judd'a nomination." save Mr. Oberly, "ia eoizg to have a good effect upon Morrison's chances for the Senatorship. It will effectaally set at rest tbe declaraticn that Morrison bas no influence with the administration, for the President desires it distinctly understood tbat Judd'a appointment is as much a compliment to Caicnel Morrison as to Mr. Jadd hitiEeif."

CUR COLORfiD IdlNlSTfSK TO HAYTI. Dr. Thompson, who waa very recently nominated by the President to represent thia country at Hsyti. i3 most favorably spoken of by all tboaa wbo have had any opportunity to hear arj thins about him, The col ured people of tbe country and the Damocratic party particularly may rest aisured that be is very much cf an improvement over Williams, wbo waa appointed by Mr. Arthur and promptly confirm. d by the Republican Senate. Dr. Thompson was recently interviewed, as ooon as the appointment waa known, in New York, where ha lives. He eaid that the appointment was a pleasure to him, though he only knew cf it through the papers, (her his desk in his effice hung a picture of the President, and as he looked at it te eaid he. believed, without being egotistical, that his appointment mantreated tbe feeling cf the Democratic party towards the colored race. He would certainly accept the position when his commission arrived. Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, editor and proprietor ef tha Freeman, the leading journal for colored people in New York city, said to a World reporter: "I am not surprised at tbe appointment, and ahall not be surprised at any appointment President Cleveland mey make of capable colored Democrats or Liberal Independent co!ored Republicans. I expect him to pursue this policy towards tbe colcred people. .1 ex pect that Mr. Cleveland end his party will pursue this policy towards the colored people, because it is tbe fiist opportunity the patty has had sines the wer to demODfctrate to the whole coantry, and the colored people in particular, that the party is net the rabid hater and implaca bie enemy of the race which the Republican party and itd orders and spokesmen have insisted it to be. The Democratic party, I was sore from the beginning, would not throw away thh opportunity to win to its support its juet percentage of the intelligent colored vote of tba Nortn and WesL" "I regard the appointment of Dr. Thompson," be continued, "as very significant, because he was taken from the North. The Republican party has Igoored the Northern colored people, the only prominent appointments made from this section having been that of E. D. Bassett, of Connecticut, in LM.D, by PmiJeat Grant, as Minister and Consul General to Hayti, and Rev. Henry Highland Garnelt, by Pres dent Arthur, to he Minister Resident at Liberia. I am pleased that Pi eiident Cleveland has made this appointment, and I tru3t he will make others of its tort. In this way the colored people will entirely lose their fear of the Democratic party, be reassured in their rights aa citizens, and be free to pursue such course La an election aa they shall determine by the character of the men placed in nomination and tbe grave issues upon which these men stand. Tbe Democratic party has it in its power to draw large accessions of strength from the ranka of colored votsre, and I shall te surprised if it permits the opportunity to pats unimproved." Tbe interests of the colored race are quite as safe bound up with the Democratic party as they were or will be with the Republican party. SOME VEEtY OLD-T1MH WISDOM. The T&lmcd c Proverbs afford striking illustrations cf tha popular wisdom of the Hebrews. The London Spectator has been looking into tbe in and collecting quite a number which will prove cf interest to our readers. Many of the Talmudic maxima will be readily recognized as very old friends, while others do not differ very much from some that are flying about in modern garb. Too folio snug, or at least many of them, wilt sound familiar to those who take an interest in such matters. "Walls have ears" a warning more emphatically conveyed in "Even ua fenced fields tell tales." "The strongest rules" is the Jewish variant of "Might is right," and "Kiag's knight. King's right," is about as close to the original Hebrew as it is possible to keep. "A bird in the cage is worth a hundred on the tree" is the Talmudic prototype of our bird in the hacd. The moral ia the same in "Better a jard of ground than an acre of roof," and "The berry I have got tastes better than the melon I am promued." The last is the meat expresdve; it emacks of the fireside. "Wine in, secret out," "Soflicient the pain when it c-jmee," "fodder for one, fodder for more," "Pride ia tae a'ga of poverty" and "Da n't throw a stone into the well from which you have drunk" suggest their obvious English parallels, while "L,!ght for one, light for a hundred," "Drop by drop the cistern Is filled," ,4A hundred flatterert, and not one to tell the truth," "The asa la cold in midsummer." "Cnie kills half the man," "Who goes to the wars mutt be prepared to lose," and "Baying and tellicg don't make a merchant," are Talmudic gems of which the setting will be more or less familiar. The common aaying about ailence being gold fin da a parallel in the Jewish "Speech is worth a aelah, but ailence two." "Better one's own tub than anothei's cistern," ia almost 8axon in Its homeliness, like "Better the grain one has sown than the. bushel one haa boueht." "The camel wanted horcs and lost his ears" appears in every European collection of proverbs, and our adsge MIf you want to hang yourself, cheese a high tree," is another piece of popular wisdom we can trace back, if Bot home, to the pages of Talmud. Women were undoubtedly considered somewhat doubtful blessings as the following indicates: "Ten measures of talk were sent down from Heaven, and women took nine." She is meddlesome, and is told "A woman'a witdorn;e in the spindle." She will cot do one thing at a ttme "A woman pica and talks." She is vin-"WIth her foot in the grave, a woman clings to vanity. Ehe is bold and immodest "A woman would sooner Lave oae measure of forwardneM

than forty of modesty. And worse; ehe likes daocmg "At sixty her teat tingle wfcen ehe hears the ej nib als." Her power is, nevertheless, admitted. "Woman is a mass of corruption, yet all men pursue" the original, eaya the translator, has a stronger word than corruption though However, notwithstanding, the foregoing woman is desirable as a companion, for "He who hau no wife Is no man." Apropos of marriage, there ia a word of advice in "Take a wife from beneath, a friend from above yon." Good looks are cot of much account In the cheice of a partner, nor indeed in any other transaction "Be the goat white, be the goat black, so she give pod' milk." Deference to a wife is recommended. "If your wife Is little bend down to her," end if thinga go wrong in the home the husband ia told to lock at home for the cause, since "Every man gela the wife he deserves." Next to marriage fiiends are considered desirable. "Have friends or die," says much in little, and ia impressive in its simplicity. Of course, aicceie friends are meant, for "If your friend be deaf when joi call, trim your back en him." Many cf the popular and proverbial locutions preserved in the Talmud are among the best and meat expressive of their kind. "Vinegar, tbe son of Wine," for instance, described the unpopular son of a popular father: "A box full cf books," a learned man. from whose learning tbe world had derived no advantage. "Grapes with grape sauce," a disoourte where that matter was neither much cor to tbe point. "He has words in his backbaae." applied to a talkative bOTe. "He scald himnlf with lukewarm water," to tbe man wbo made a muddle of the simplest matter ir. trusted to his management; and "He will make the ocean sweet," io one wheae pretensions were as extravagant as ill-founded. "He losss what he has and what he bas not," was eaid of an unfortunate man: "He puts his money on the horn't of a deer," of an imprudent one; and "His cheeks grow grass," of a cunning and impudent fellow.

MAD AT MANNIN3. Seme of the independent Republican prints are evidently trying to "get up a muss" between tbe President and the Secretary of the Treasury. Pack, though always complimenting Mr. Cleveland. Is beraeanin; Mr. Manning as it constantly bas Mr. Hendricke. "Mr. Daniel Mannidg," it remarts, "ia a man after Vice President HndricB' own heart. He has about as much respect for the theory of civil service reform as be has for the Rig Vedas, if he ever heard of the Rig Yedaa. He has aboat as mach understanding of the temper of the people oa this point as he has of the religion of the inhabitants of Mars. He belongs absolutely ard utterly to the old sohool." With dae consideration for tbe etHcieat werk of Puck and ether independent Republican journals against Blaine in the cimpaign, we must think tbat they have forgotten that the issoe was one between the Damerratic party and the Republican party- It would appear that Pock fancied Grayer Cleveland equally supported by both partie, or else independent ot the support of either, and therefore no more bound to appoint Democrats to oüice than Republicans. Perhaps, too, it supported Mr. Cleveland under the impression that he wss never a Democrat, or, being one, that be was so un grateful a man that be would have no aense of obligation to his party for its advancement of him. Some misimpression such as oae of those named has misled Puck to the conclusion that it and its ilk may stir up discord oetween the President and hia able head of tbe Treasury Bureau. But the probabilities are very irong that these hypercritics ot the press are mistaken. The chaxces are as one thousand to one that Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Manning are in entire accord. It ia probably true that the Secretary of the Treasury is in more confidential relations with tbe Executive than ia any other member ot the Cabinet The President appreciates, as Mr. Manning does, that the change ordered by the people meant that Democrats were to take the place of Republicans in oilice. And we challenge Mr. Manning's critics to name one appointment in his department of a man asainst whom charges of dishonesty have been brought. So with regard to Vice President Hendricks. Where is the instance of his having favored the selection of a man whose character wouli not be an earnest of faithful performance of public duties? We challenge tbe critics of Mr. Hendricks to point to one shortcoming cn his part inonecf the many official sta tions he bas tilled daring more than thirty years cf public life. His hands have been clean perfectly clean ; if all the Government offices rrsy be filled by mea whoe records at the cHce of their terrrs of service are as clean as has been that of Mr. Hendricks, the ccuotiy will be universally congratulated. Tbe conclusion of the whole matter is that Mr. Cleveland ia going to give us a Dm cratic administration, and tbat the Republican papers, Blaioeiie and Independent, having discover d the fact, are raad. We entertain genuine admiration for Mr. Secretary Manning, and esteem tbe President and the country fortunate iu Mr. Manning's having been called to the responsible position he occupies. That Democrats will gradually be substituted for Republicans, we do not doubt, whereof we are glad. And we are furthermore glad that the new officials will be men of honesty delightful contrasts ;to many of the rascals whom they will succeed. TENNYSON'S LflvTEST. Tbe world has been told by the wires that Tennyson has written an epitaph for the memorial tablet to General Gordon in Westminster Abbey, and these are the lines thereof: Wsrrior of Gcd, man's friend. Not here below, thou liveat in All men's hearts: For all men know This earth haih borne No fclmpler, nobler man. EroanatiDg as they do from the Poet Laureate to the "Queen cf Great Britain and I Impress cf India," it waa our duty to read the lines, and we have read them. Remembering they are by an English "milorJ," we have read them twice, and then, appreciating that cot to be intensely familiar with Tennyson argaes one nnestbetic, we haye e'en read them a third time. And yet, despite the thrice reading the Sentinel has failed Id gloriously to discover a tear-starter, a soulthriller, a aigh beaver or even the vibration of one chord of eostaUo melody in the verae.

We concede that ours not being the fine jretic sight, it may have tailed to observe some subtle beauty or grandeur nestling somewhere between or beneath or about the taenty-one monosyllables and five b '-syllables compesing the ever to-bs-reaowned epitaph. Bat we are bound to aay that no pcetic merit sits on tbe face of the effusion. In fact, the composition in both eentiment and diction is weak. It Is weak for even Tenntton, and that is saying a good deal. Wbat there is in Alfred Tennyson's work to command the sentimental homage paid to him we have never been able to discover. He has written a few etrong lines and a clever number of pretty lines, but hia productions, as a whole, do not entitle him to rank with at lesst two contemporaneous American pceta. Tbe Qieen's laureate being well along in yecrs, fading faculties may account for tbe especially noticeable weakness ot hia very recent verses. If she has any otter available singer she should substitute him for Mr. Tennyson. And it she haa not that sahtitnte let ber bat apply to America, and we caa furnith ber a long list from which to make a selection to borrow.

WILL ENGLAND PROHIBIT? An anecdote dramatized a faw years since represented an American and an Englishman making a tour of the world in company. While going through an interior eectlonof India they encountered a funeral ceremony -of a Prince, which included the cremation of hia wife, a joung English woman, along with the remains of the deceased. The live widow was bound and dragged by the heathen priests upon the pile of fagots, and amidst her cries and protests they fired the pile. The much be whiskered and dignified Englishman, stepping forward and extending an arm, pompously proclaimed: "In the came of the English Government I 2'rotrtt against thla outrage 1" Tbe priest, witbout the fear of the protest before their eyes, continued fanniBg the flames. But tbe joui'g American after observing the proceedings for a moment, drew his revolver end ejaculated: "In tbe name cf the American Government, I prohHt this outrage!" and so saying, shot down two or three of the priests, when the rest, with their followers, tcok to thei rheis, while tbe young American rescued the English girl from the crematory So to-day, aa of late, the Englishman haa only been protesting, while the Russian has been sacrificing the posrefsions of the Ameer, England'a ally. Yery dignified is Sir John Bull in his eide whiskers and solemn protests, but tbe heathen Coseack military prieits are soicg cn with the funeral business in Afghanistan. England needs tome of the "I prohibit" nerve of the American tourist. She haa protested too. long. If tbe isnit going to surrender the should etop protesting and draw her revolver, and begin firirg as she ahouts: "I prohibit thia outREVENUE COLL.HCTOH HUNTER. The appointment of Dr. W. D. H. Hunter to the Revenue Collectorshipof thia district will eurprif e no one, aa it has for eome time been coc ceded to him. Dr. Hunter's candidacy for the office waa preferred aad championed by Congressman llolman. Mr. Eb HenderBon, Chairman of the State Democratic Central Committee, was strongly urg6d by a portion of the delegation in Congress while Mr. Bynum favored Daniel Lemon, of this city. But Judge Holman waa ardent in hia advocacy of the man from hia district, and the Secretary of the Treasury was frank enough to state, in March, to the friends of the other candidates that Judge Holman had " the best of the argument" He has been in Congress for twenty years, doing valiant service for the Democracy throughout this long period, and thia was hia llrst opportunity for asking an appointment Again, Dssrborn and Franklin Counties, both in Judge Hoiman's District pay about five-sixths of the entire revenue collected in the district Dr. Hunter Is a stauBch Democrat a quiet, un ostentatious gentleman, and accredited as being in every sense competent for the duties of the collectorthip. It may be set down aa certain that "the watchdog of the Treasury" knew his man whsn so urgently pressing hia appointment The Government is assured a correct administration of the Sixth District Collectnrshit,. A WEATHER WAIL. If the Weather Court pleases, we ask for a change cf venue for the trial of the May case. Evidently the court is prejudiced. It is giving us tbe cold shoulder. Its justice is untempeml with mercy. We call for a charge of venue to a court where the pris oner, May, can get out oa a writ of habeas corpus for the enjivment of clear skies, warm sunshine and balmy breezes.

Here we are in lhe 11th of the month, and afraid to venture beyond the front gate witbout being frdly in winter attire. Teeth are chattering beneath foreheads that should be beading with perrpiration. This is all unsatisfactory. The Weather Conrthas acted unfairly by u.
