All the rest have lately lost their prestige. A gentleman who has recently seen Mr. JJIaine says that .the latter thinks that the Democrats are going: to have a long lease of power.

A "Washixctox special to the New York "World says that the Administration has issued a formal denial from the "White House that there is any difference between the President and the Civil Service Commission about the enforcement of the civil service law. Wanted, 1,000 clabs of six Sentinels for 5. Bci.oaeia is threatened with collapse. The Servians have turned the most difficult passes that separates them from Sofia. The slight resistance made by the Bulgarians at these points, after months of preparation, would almost lead one to believe that it wis prearranged that Servia was to occupy the District of Sofia aa an offset to the Bui gariarranion. Both Russia and Turkey are making great military preparations, and this i3 about the only interesting feature of the conflict. Six copies of the Weekly Sentinel for 5. The French people were never great colonizers. They are even less so now. They are ' ready at conquest, but never hold a country because there is nothing to hold it but an army, and that always dwindles away or is destroyed by a turn of fortune. The great necessity for a colony is colonist3, and it is difficult to keep Frenchmen long cuhude of La Belle France. The statement of Brisson to the Chambers in relation to Madagascar and Tonquin was ''coldly received." The French prefer to have their fellow-soldiers at home, there being no French to protect in either country. The first volume of General Grant's book is in print and will be issued December 1 ; bat as it has been sold exclusively by subscription, it may be later before it can be had at the book stores. The volume is much larger than at first announced. Instead of 432 it will contain nearly 500 pages. The number of chapters will be one-third greater than heretofore stated, and the number of illustrations and maps has also been greatly increased. It is bound in all style, and is offered at corresponding prices, the highest price being $7.50. The second volume will be oat in March. The Sentinel and the Farm Guide for SI. 35. GERM AN-AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. There is trouble brewing in the evident intent of the German and Austrian Government in detaining American naturalized citizens of German origin and compelling them to eerve in the German army. Yet it will not do to accept every report of such impressment as an act of German tyranny, or of a desire on the part of Germany to avoid treaty obligations. It has been a very common practice of many Germans, in order to ' avoid liability to serve in the Germany army, to come to America and reside only long enough to acquire naturalization papers, and then permanently return to Germany as American citizens, with all the claims for exemption that the word im-2-lie. It is not the business of America to criticise the onorous duties of German citizens as parts of a despotic military pystem nor to abet a spirit of evasion of the German laws, which these cases of spurious citizenship involve. Yet, in the old troubles with England, over the impressment of Americans in her navy, this was exactly the position taken by the British Government, which always assumed that all seamen impre;ed were really English, not American, it is going to be very diSicuU t(J

separate the real American-German, who is temporarily sojourning .in fatherland, from the spurious kind that accepts American citizenship in order to avoid the stern requirements of the German Government. It would require a trial by court in each case, with even then an occasional act of injustice to a real American. The American Government should not interfere only on behalf of those German-Americans who obtain American citizenship in spirit as well as form, bat it should interfere and interfere by effective repeisa in all cases where true American citizens are involved. The danger in the situation lies in the nearly impossible task , of separating them, which will lead la the German case to broad measures of proscription, and in the American o broad measures of protection.

Get six subscribers for the Sentinel, retain 1 and send us a V. Dorsey U very bitter over the removal of Judge Vincent. He said that it was effected by 'a crank named McManus," who was angry because Vincent had decided cases against him. He charges that our own Pink' Fishback wrote to Sparks that Vincent was "about to allow citizens of New Mexico to steal their own property.' Lamar rushed to the President with the letter, and Vincent was guillotined within thirty minutes. Dorsey talks as if he were mad. but then he must certainly admire celerity of movement. We remember when he told Conner, Republican Committeeman of Newton County, Indiana, how to give Porter, in 18 0, just double the amount of majority that the county usually gave. It was on the Uli nois State line, and lacked only a few days of the Governor's election of that year. Conner asked him bow it was to be done, l'orsey replied: "Ho veer hit' IHinvis eil net I he roter." GOVERNOR HILL. "We were much pleased with the remarks of Governor Hill the other day concerning civil service reform. The Governor may be regarded as an embodiment of the most recent popular expression of public sentiment upon that subject. He specially disclaimed any intention of riticising the action of President Cleveland, a disclaimer hardly necessary. The dutv of the Executive is to enforce the law while it is the law, but we do not think that this implies the advocacy or approval of the principles upon which the law is based. Governor Hill says that his own administration will be Democratic will be partisan in its appointments and management. This does not mean that it will, theiefore, bj either incoiuj-etent, unfaithful or dishonest What is meant, is that he has the fullest confidence in the friends and associates of his own political party, and that among them may be found men in every way worthy of any position in the government of the State of Xew York within his gift. By way of softening the contrast between his own action and that of the President, and by way of explanation of the tardiness of removals in the Federal offices, the Governor goes on to say that the Democratic party has been, in national affairs, for a long time out of power, and that the persons composing it nave grown rusty in matters pertaining to the public service; that some degree of inquiry, precaution, and, consequently, delay, must ensue to make a proper selection from material so long unaccustomed to holding official positions. AH this is true and may be entitled to more consideration than is usually given it. A qusrter of a century of continuous power had practically made for Republicans a permanent tenure of office. The persons so long employed in the discharge of official duties thus had the opportunity of becoming well versed in them, and well acquainted with the routine of office details. These same persons, thus drilled and trained, by their long incumbency have just as certainly excluded and prevented other citizens from becoming so. Now, shall this system of irremovable official tenure, due to the accident of political domination, be penetuated by act of Congress? We think that the holding of office, from the least unto the greatest, is a sort of political education, at the public expense, to which all citizens should have an equal right and opportunity, and that no law should forbid this right. Is it just that this education and the opportunity of acquiring it should only enure to the benefit of a favored class, and that ail others should be debarred from even the chance of enjoying it? V The attendance upon public meetings, the hearing of political addresses and discussions, the attendance upon elections at the polls, constitute parts of the political education of every citizen. The functions of public office are other and different parts of this same system of political education. One may be likened to the ordinary graded schools; the other to the high schools in our system of free schools for all the children of the Commonwealth. Suppose it were sought to be enacted ibat pupils from the common schools should no longer be admitted to the high schools; that the high schools should consist only and exclusively of persons already admitted to them, and that these favored pupils should stay there perpetually, learning over and over the same lessons, which in course of time they would learn perfectly. Would not every one exclaim against the wrong and injustice of such a policy? Now, this is exactly the plan of the Civil Service Reform league. .They insist that .the .doors of. the. .high school of political instruction shall be closed shut against all comers, except in "case of death or resignation ; that the persons now in office shall continue therein: that no others shall learn or "have the opportunity cf learning these higher branches of political knowledge. We bold that the wages paid by the government to its employes, which these spurious reformers call ''spoil?,'' and these opportunities of higher political education, which they call "patronage," shall be equally open to all citizens. By this it is not meant that any unworthy or incapable aspirant should be appointed. What-is meant is that persons, honest, faithful and capable, should not fail of appointment merely because others are or have been for any length of time incumbents of such places. V Ihe policy of providing Or perpetual

terms of office for any class of public servants is based, at least, .upon distrust of the, people. It is only another way of saying that the masses of mankind are unworthy and incapable of self government. Granting that the appointing power may be abused, that political patronage does not always lightupon the most worthy; tbe remedy is to be found in the removal, change and expal-ionof the appointing power, not in either limiting or destroying the right of the majority to say and name who shall serve them in every capacity. " Reform implies a re-formation, a renewal or renovation of public functionaries, not a perpetuity of old ones. A reformation of the civil service, for the "purposes of discovery, integrity and safety will be best promoted by a complete : change of civil servants. A reform of the civil service will be partial and imperfect which stops short of this it will be perfect, impartial and thorough only when this is accomplished. 3

THE FATHER OF THE HOUSE. William 1). Klly, of Philadelphia, is called the Father of the House of Representatives. He has served longer in Congress than any of his fellow members. He is also the champion in Congress of high tariff ; and no tariff we have yet had has .been high enough to please him, though bis party has oppressed the country for twenty-five years with one so high as to be largely prohibitory, greatly cripple our foreign commerce and almost annihilate our merchant marine. He began his political career as a i emoerat, and as such he secured a nomination and election as Judge of the Court of (uarter Sessions in Philadelphia.. Idring bis judgeship, the Republican party sprang up and gathered strength, while the Democracy was losing it by divi3ion. He went over to the Republicans, and took the stump, being still on the Bench, and declaimed as a violent partisan. He held on to the judgeship till the Republicans elected him to congress, where he has continued to the present time. Though so long in Congress he has never established a National reputation, and Iiis fellow members have never dasifled him above a second rate member. His own classification, however, places himself far above all his fellows. He is on the best terms with himself, and nothing puzzlcs him more than the fact that the people do not show more appreciation of his great ness by electing him President. He believes that the constellation of great qualities that glow in him is in some manner eclipsed by the Solid South, that womb of Republican woe. He is irritable and arrogant and generally disliked by his fellow-members. The chiefs of 'his party in his district would like to get rid of him, but can no. His nomination and election, term after term, is secured by some very wealthy manufacturers in Philadelphia, chief among whom is the great drag and chemical firm of Powers it Weight rrcn. He may be considered as their own member of Congress. For the special benefit of Powers & Weightman he induced the Republicans to iniiose and maintain an enormous duty on quinine for a quarter of a century, thus extorting millions annually from the sick of this country to pamper the boundless greed of his masters. He regards himself as a tariff oracle and entitled by pre-eminent tariff knowledge to precedence in Congress in all matters pertaining to the tariff. He looks with pity on the lack of tariff intelligence in his fellowmembers from the interior, and expects every member who makes a tariff demonstration without first consulting him to make an a3 of himself. Though young in statesmanship he is wonderful in invention. He invented the "Kelley mode" of payment. This Kelley mode should not be confounded with the Keeley motor, also a Philadelphia invention. They are distinct. - -- -- When Oakes Ames was bribing so many of his fellow-members of Congress with Credit Mobilier stock, Kelley too yielded to the temptation to the extent of a few thousand. He had been a Judge of a Criminal Court and well knew the hazzards of crime. He desired to fortify himself against the consequences of his Credit Mobilier indulgence. Ames was ready to help him. He passed his check to Ames, as in payment of the stock Ames had given him for his vote. Ames took it and at once tore it up. Upon this sham payment Kelley swore, before the Poland Committee of Investigation, that he had paid for his stock. The committee pressed Ames into an expose of the modus operandi of the payment payment on which the Judge based bis oath of payment. A few days after the expose the Judge came to the wise conclusion that notwithstanding his sworn payment for the stock, it did not properly belong to him. lie wished to purge himself of it, and to make sure that the public should know that he had done so, as his' good name was involved. He sent his stock to the Secretary of State with an explanatory note telling him he found that stock in his possession; "that It did not belong to him; that he did not know exactly who it did belong to, but thought it ought to belong to the United, States, and therefore he Bent it to the Secretary. The Secretary responded kindly, saying he had no jurisdiction of fiscal matters; that these belong to the Secretary of the Treasury, and be would send the stock to him. The latter announced that he had received it, and would "cover it into the Treasury." He covered it so well that it has never been heard of since, and it is probable that he, or the thievish Republican set around him, not only covered it, but cabbaged it. Some member of Congress ought to have this covering investigated. As might be expected from such a Repub1 can paragon, Old Kelley shakes his bloody ebiitwith no less vigor than he does high tariff. M'CLELLAN'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY. It is positively stated upon the best authority that the late General George B. McClellan left an autobiography, complete at least to the battle of Antietam, the point at which his military career terminated. This gives cause for public congratulation. Terhaps no public man in this country ever suffered from concurrent' history more grievous injustice than General JlcClellan. He was the object of the most bitter and unaccountable hatred of Edwin M. Stanton, -. the great War Secretary, who not only improved, but created every conceivable opportunity to embarrass his military plans and cripple his movement. Nothing that General McClellan could do was right in the estimation of the War Department, 7Ue ad;aiaitratioa pc?

t r t ' t x ' . ' i ' - t wa? necessarily under the domineering influence, of Stanton. Its information on military subjects was obtained principally through bis office, and' was deeply colored by his prejudices. Hence facts favorable to McClellan seldom appeared, while everything reflecting upon him or his military character was published, distorted and exaggerated to suit the temper of his great enemy. He lost the Peninsular campaign by depletion of his forces by orders from Washington. And he was finally peremptorily ordered to withdraw bis army and to retreat on "Washington, after his arms had been crowned by the victory of Malvern Hill. Similarly, almost immediately upon the close of the battle of Antietam, when, by one of the most brilliant victories of the war, he bad expelled the invading rebel armies from Maryland and Pennsylvania, and driven them south of the Potomac, he was deposed from all command, and forced into a retirement which dignity and self-respect compelled him to spurn by resignation from the service. But his brilliant West Virginia campaign and the two crowning victories of Malvern Hill and Antietam do not constitute his only or his greatest military achievements. Early in the war he was appointed Com-mander-inChiei of all the Union forces in the appalling emergency precipitated by the terrible defeat at the battle of Bull Run. Upon assuming command his disposition of his forces was effected with such celerity and judgment that the rebel advance, at first only checked, was quickly rendered impossible. Then commenced the stupenduous work upon w hich his true fame will rest. With almost superhuman energy he recruited, uniformed, organized, disciplined, created the national army. It was the first great army that had ever appeared on the American continent, and when it took the field it was in appointment, discipline and organization the greatest and finest army in the world. r.ut this was only half. Washington was destitute of defences. He swiftly girdled the city with a perfect system of fortifications, which, by its scientific construction and impregnable strength, challenged the admiration of great soldiers throughout the world. The current literature of the present period is burdened with stories of the eiploits and

episodes, the marches and battles of that heroic tune. Generals have written of their martial victories, statesmen have recorded their civic triumphs, and history has been formed, and is still forming, more accurate, definite and circumstantial than was ever before known. But nowhere in all this vast and priceless mass of narratives has yet appeared an authentic account of these two stupendous achievements the creation of the national army, and the fortification of the National Capital. To the hero by whom these mighty works were accomplished has been committed by common consent the history of their accomplishment. In modesty and in silence he has written it all. And now, that he is dead, the world for the first time will hear aud read it, sealed in truth and verity by the solemnity of his death. VALUE OF OATHS. Some of the jurors in the trial of theswindler Ward said that "if Ward had been put on the stand to testify in hi3 own behalf, they would have regarded his statements as neutralizing those of Fish, and would have failed to convict him. Having no contradiction of Fish's assertions, they did convict.". To our way of thinking there is nothing creditable to a juror's integrity or sincerity in such an avowal as this. It says in effect, ''Whether we believed Ward or not, we would have set his statement against Fish's, though we may have had good reason to believe Fish." In other words, it counts every oath of equal value, let the witness be whom or what he may. It is true that . Fish was implicated in Ward's frauds, but it is also true, as was made plain enough, that the initiative of these frauds, the plau of them and the process of executing them, were all Ward's. lie was the active scoundrel of the set, and by as much as Le was the more zealous and persistent in villainy, he was the less entitled to credit, no matter who the contradicting witness was. But the objection to the view of a juror's duty implied or suggested in the statement we have quoted, is not affected by the comparative villainy of opposing witnesses. A juror is not bound to accept every . . uncontradicted statement under oath at its full dictionary value, nor to accept one asequal to another when they contiict. It is his duty to reach the truth, if he can, and if he sees cause in the action, the tone, the look of a man, to think him honest, he may fairly accept that man's testimony against that of another equally positive and equ-.dly well situated to know the truth, if in t!ie latter he sees suspicious indications. A choice will be made by any intelligent juror, when the conflict of testimony can not be reconciled, and it ought to be. The community should not be put to the expense of a second trial, or subjecteted to the peril of a scoundrel unloosed, where any fair interpretation of language and demeanor, such as every man will accept in making decisions in his own affairs, allows a reasonable belief of evidence. The idea that one oath is as good, r bad, as another, and if they conflict neither is to be believed; and a criminal, however notorious, must be acquitted, is monstrous. Oaths in conflict may be, and frequently are, of equal force or weakness, and then a jury may be honestly puzzled, but this is a different case from that made by the New York juror, who seems to consider that oaths are necessarily equal, under the law, whatever" they may be under the construction of common sense. The long prevalent leinty of legal procedure to criminals, shown in obstructions of conviction at every step by presumptions and advantages allowed the defense, both in the trial and after it, In arrests of judgment, new trials, appeals and reversals on technical points in no way affecting the guilt or innocence of the convict, is changing to a rational system of using law and courts to protect community instead of - criminals, and with this change will disappear such mischievous notions as that we have been considering. Mr. George Manvllle Kenn, who"e work is constantly increasing in popularity, has written a serial story called "Iron Trials," for the Youth's Companion. It deals with boy life in an Knsslish manufacturing town, and is said to be unusually drama tiv, ,

Cant in religion is the implement of the hypocrite. Cant in politics is the shibboleth of the sneak. Brooklyn Kagle. raoFE;80R Marsh, of Yale College, declares that the brains of some animals now extinct were large, whereupon the Chicago Tribune remarks: "The same thing was observed in some American statesmen now extinct." If a man analyze the character of his 500 friends lie will be dumbfounded at the amount of treachery be discovers. Yet if he will analyze his own character he will surely find a five hundredth part of all this shortcoming. Chicago Current. Co.MMissiosEB Atkixs has decided that the Indian traders are a bad lot, and must all give place to new men. It may take as much as three weeks for the new men to become as expert as the old in the business of swindling the Indians. St. Louis Fost-Dispatch, The letter of Depew turns the mind3 of men back to Andrew Johnson. The man is dead, and it is well to keep in mind two potent fact3 in remembering him. In his youth and early manhood he did many splendid things. At the last a great infirmity overmastered him, and he did many foolish things. Salt Lake Tribune, October 23. Tue very desire to better the condition of mankind is ennobling. The man who is not influenced by it is a groveler, and unworthy of confidence. The "enthusiasm of humanity" has done wonders. It has made missionary enterprise successful; it has widened the bounds of freedom and greatly added to the sum of human happiness. It has other triumphs in store greater, it may be, than have yet been won. Edinburgh Scotsman. If the Sunday paper be hostile to the church, or to this day of rest, it ought to go. But it would seem that such a union between pulpit and paper might be formed as would make the idea of Sunday as a day of rest stronger than ever before. A war on the morals of the paper would be better than a war on the paper, because many of the popular sermons of to-day are themselves entertaining rather than admonitory. Chicago Current. The Medical Record, referring to the plague-engendering condition of Naples, takes the ground that when cities or countries persist in endangering their neighbors by their neglect of sanitary conditions," "they should be taken in hand and forced to clean themselves." "That would be something much more worth fighting about," adds the editor, "than the possession of a few islands in the Pacific, or a strip of land on the coast ot Africa." The American who comes to Mexico is re sponsible for hisbehavior, not only to himself, but to the American people. I can not blame the Mexicans for having a general idea of the United States as a country peopled by a rough, discourteous, aggressive and rather unscrupulous class of humanity. A gentleman, once Minister of the United tates here, said very truly that almost every American arriving here seemed to be waving an invisible American flag and defying the sentiment of the couatry. Correspondence of Boston Herald. Canon Farrab in his lecture on Kobert Browning assigns the poet a high rank. He says: "Browning gives us not a book, but a literature, and to have read and understood him is an education in itself. There is no poet except Shakespeare no poet living or dead in whom you will find such a marvelous array of characters, lie draws his characters from the East and the West; from history, imaginative legend and fancy; from Greece, Italy, Palestine, France, England, America, Russia, Bagdad; from Kings, peasants, revolutionary leaders, factory girls, mystic dreamers, gay cavaliers, gallant soldiers, gypsies, dervishes, Jews noble and base; from mnsicians, poets, painters, saints, heroes, reformers, heretics, villains; from every passion of man noble or debasing which can live; from every love, requited or unrequited; from doubt, ambition, jealousy, averice, atheism, and barbarism ; from all the virtues, hopes, and fears of man, of time, and of eternity, he takes all his colors for the scenery and figures in his dramas."

Emory Storks has already realized $3,400 from the fund being raised for her benefit. When she is home, Judic, the French actress, bathes in a silver bath tub, which has her monogram in gold. Japas has a society for reforming the style of dressing the hair of women. The association has over 2,000 members. It is said that Jndic learned to play the banjo in Boston, and aims to astonish Paris audiences with her new acquirement. A sew sect has sprung up in Canada whose doctrine is that women have no souls, because the Bible nowhere mentions women angels. The leader is a Frenchman. Mme. Viardot-Gaecia has inherited from her father the complete manuscript of the music of the opera of "Don Giovanni." It is entirely in the handwriting of Mozart himself. F.vr.x the'soft white feathers on the white wedding gown of Princess Marie of Orleans, recently married in Taris, were tipped with silver.
