"With due respect we would suggest to the towers at Washington, and all others concerned therein, that the tirae has fully come when a halt should be called in the business of appointing unworthy characters to ottice in this State. Iii our opinion the seeming attempt to rival the P.cpublican party in mating and maintaining bad appointments to o:hee is an unworthy ambition, and the .sooner it is abandoned the better. The honest Iernocratic masses of the State have already been sufficiently humiliated the grand old party of the people damaged quite enough, surely, for a halt. With becoming modesty we would venture to sug.uest to the forces inspiring and rontrollim: appointments here that there is no lack of honest, competent Democrats in our State. In view of this fact we confess to our inability to make out any sufficient reason for the selection and appointment of thieves, highwaymen, bribers, deadbeats and the like. Give honest, competent Democ rats a chance.

The Seutiuel and the Farm Guide for 1.33. LOOK OUT FOR WHEAT. There is a rumor that the biggest wheat deal ever operated is being worked at Chicago, by a combination of the Minneapolis millers, the various gram banks of the Northwest, and heavy Chicago operators. Their programme is to force wheat down, buy up the country ouermgs, and then advance the price .' per cent. l'nles? the statistics of the department of agriculture are greatly at fault, a successful comer on wheat is extremely probable. The visible supply is great, and nearly equals, probably, the invisible supply. This visible supp'y being already in the hands o! the ruilier, elevator men and banks, it would only require that they combine, in order to control the supply. They can freeze out weak holders by continued bearing, and then choose their price. Every farmer should hurry his wheat to market on a ten cent advance, without delay, as there is plenty of wheat for all reasonable demands, and yet as it is so largely controlled by the combination, it can keep it oat of market long enough to compel the public to buy at their own figures. Thi3 will be the last -(.'.')-' chance the farmer will have for a long time to make money on wheat, as the coming crop prosj:ects are exceedingly favorable for a five hundred million bushel v:eld.

A "Local Hanker,' in the coluran of a contemj-orary, "thinks that the delay of action by Congress in the proposed susjension of silver coinage is having, - an ajpreciable im'.uence for evil in this city. 0 Contributing to this e fleet are such resolutions as were offered in the Senate by Van Wyck to make void any contract payable in gold." Now, if this 'Locai Hanker" ' is not an editorial cob house, built for the purpose ol knocking it down, but an actual flesh and blood banker, no one will know the falsity he conveys better than himself. He speaks for himself and his class, and not for the "city." If he is a banker he will well know that the causes of depression in this city are not intluenced by actions of Congress, but by an abstraction of the capital of the city by bank failures which, in the past five years, have aggregated over $7,0!".ß If he is a banker he will know that a large amount of the capital of this city has been stnk in the 'maelstrom of grain and pork speculation. He will also know that speculation in suburban farms, bonght at $-"oo ier acre, and worth one hundred, both by individuals and by the city, and not ''business" is what ails this city. He will also know that waste of capital has compelled business men who were once doing business on a solid basis to become borrowers, or to so much reduce their business oierations as to make it almost tantamont to a suspension. His banker, if he be a banker, will also know that sab s have decreased in gross aggregate, and greatly in net profit, in common with all the commodities of the country, with one single exception gold. If he 1 a banker, and not a bam, he can probably tell to a cent the condition of ever quotable business man m the city, how much they owe, and why the bank will not advance them money, or take their acceptances, or accept their p rex 1 nets as security for discounts, on a gold basis or on any ba-is. In discussing a' situation it is wholly unnecessary to falsify it by overt insinuation or oi'en falsehood. Danker's business is to sell money, and he naturally, like every one else, wants to ttell it at the highest price. We have no fault to find with "banker" on this score: but for him to assert that because a certain sort of legislation, or the want of it is a predisposing cause of our city's business depression, when the cause of it is so;rratly due to careless or dishonest banking, and universal aad enormous shrinkage of values that has taken place throughout the country, is a manifest absurdity. We make no concealment of the fact that the propositions before Coagroas are not favorable to the bankers, or that r-pedes of property represented by money. In fact, its tendency Is to rednc its value, and of course cnld not be looked upon with 'favor -by tuat restricted class. This high value Las been artificially assirted by legislation cntil every time contract ad every debt, if paid faithfully on i La face, Itrv-ii 4 st Q r?-rT, W in anol-s

le-s d?" tractive and arbitrary because it was accomplished through the law, or even done through ignorance of the e2ect it would have. This city, nor in fact any other city where -boom" Las teen mistaken for businessboom that baa destroyed the actual capital and comjlled our business men to borrow i3 not by any means over the efl'ects of old debt. Year after year they have struggled painfully to pay them honestly, and yet they have hardly decreased ternaps have in the aggregate increased, because money was so tontinually rising in value, and their products, through which they earn money, were so continually sinking in value that if a man had paid up one-half of an indebtedness contracted ia the seventies the other half would still require as much of his products to complete the payment of his debt as the entire amount originally called for. To remedy this is precisely what is meant by continued silver coinnge and legislation compelling bankers to observe the law in common with other peoi'le. It has so come about that the business of money lending is the only business that is profitable. This state of things, if continued, can only end in one way if allowed to go on unchecked general bankruptcy and ultimate repudiation of the greater part of it. In the long run it will bring disaster to capital in truth, it is capital ti.at will in the end be destroyed. The process by which banks have disposed of the city funds entrusted to them by the late Republican City Treasurer, and entailed a loss that is nearly equal to ruin upon a number of innocent bondsmen, will be repeated on a largerand, in fact, national scale if the process by which property is decreased and money is increased is not reversed. It is asking more than it is possible to pccoiuplish. It is to a reversal of these conditions that the attention of Congress is directed, and if it fails to reverse them it will fall to relieve the situation. Not nU of these conditions are within the reach of any legislation. Human nature is not equal to everything; but it is in the line of justice to the entire country that the monopoly and power of the bankers over the business of the country shall be reduced to a common level, and so far as this can be done it should be done.

MORRILL'S TWADDLE. And here is that old veteran, Morrill, who, if he don't know better than to teach such falsehoods, should be relegated to his dotage, and if he docs should be impeached, telling that old yarn about the continued silver coinage driving cold out of the country. The proposition is plain; foreignets will not accept anything in payment of their balances but gold and silver. Let us admit they will accept nothing but gold. So long as the balances are againss us the gold will flow out, whether it is at par or commands any premium whatever. No more of it will go out than is required to pay that balance, and no matter how gold may stand relative to our own silver or paper currency, only so much of it will be paid for foreign goods as represents the relation of value between the gold and the goods, and that relation will be governed by the supply and demand. As we w ill accept nothing form foreigners but gold and silver in payment of the balances due to us. whenever the balance of trade is in our favor, those metals will flow in and none i'ow out. As this balance is and has been in our favor, the precious metals are flowing in, aud we are increasing our 8iecie surplus.- In order for gold or silve r to flow out we must either buy more goods than we sell, and pay the difference in gold and silver, or we must give it to foreign people as a free ofTering. There is nothing so silly as this talk about gold flowing out, or, for that matter, flowing in, having any bearing on any legislation we may attempt. All this depends ujon the activity of trade. If active, money will flow freely; if sluggish, money will flow slowly; if dead, money will not I'ow at all. When it does How, it will flow to w here it belongs to the creditor, and in payment of a debt. It, by continued acceptance of silver, foreigners would choose to pay In silver, our silver surplus would increase faster than gold, and if this was continued long e nough it might drive gold and paper currency out of circulation. If it drove the former, it would depreciate it, and in time they would come together again. If the latter, then it would extinguish so much paperas thedebts represent. Hut as, in fact, buyer and seller would usually stipulate which kind of metal was to be paid, it would result that gold and silver would both be paid on their real bullion value. It will be a great day for America when it learns that it is in the trade it does and not to any particular figures we may tittach to a piece of paper or gold or silver that c-lTects. our wealth in its foreign relations. So long as a currency preserves a certain stable relation between commodities and debts it accomplishes all that is possible or desirable. It is on this point and not on the flow of gold out of the country that the present agitation is directed. In our foreign relations we have nothing to fear so long as the trade balance is in our favor. Six ITeekly Sentinels for 5.

SI. le Lcs-scps, after his great feat of making Africa an island by the Suez Canal, and while going on rather hopeless'y, it is thought, with the companion scheme of making islands of the two Americas by the Panama Canal is moving forward a project to fill a big basin of the Sahara Desert with water from the Sleds' teranean by a canal of which a survey has been made, which may work some serious changes in the cli matic condition of Euror. This new sea will cover some thousands of square miles of the great desert; and Its surface, in the rapid evaporation of a torrid temperature, will probably greatly modify the character of the winds that blow from the Sahara sands over to Europe. In Italy thee have the generic name of "sirocco," a dry, hot wind, like the breath of a furnace, and their influence Is held a powerful agency in melting the protruding ends of Alpine glaciers, as they move down the deep gorges of the mountains to the plains belpw. But for their rower, it is thought by cietints, the glaciers would descend bodily", in great walls of ice, into the valleys, and reader incapable of cultivation or habitation. Now, If this Sahara feea is opened aad filled, the hot breath of the sirocco will take up 89 much moisture in paasias orer tho reV rraiex jcö Uua create, Uut iU

nieltinz effect on the Alpine glaciers will be lost, and besides the moist air, encountering the coldest Alpine ranges, will deposit at the head's of the glaciers a larger m&ss of snow than now falls these, and thus a double effect will follow the glacier streams of movable ice will be Increased in volume, and there will be less melting power to reduce them in their descent into the valleys. So the final result. it is feared in scientific speculation will be the protrusion of great rivers or ice fron, the mountain gorges into the cultivable va'leys, and the abandonment of the latter sooner or later. This will be a serious change for the hardy shepherds of the Alpine pastures, and may cause, among other changes, the Tery serious sentimental loss of the celebrated "Hans De Vaches," the home tune of the Swiss mountaineers, which is said to have so greatly affected the "Swiss Guard" of the French Kings, after Louis I Grand (Louts XIV), that the bands were forbidden t play it, lest it might provoke wholesale desertion. If these speculations are not wholly fanciful, they teach us that the inter-dependence of the nations of the world is much more exte nsive and important than we Lave been accustomed to regard it.

THE PRESIDENT AND THE SENATE. This is a Government of co-ordinate branches. That is, the founders of the Constitution had in view a certaiu number of elements which were intended to co-ordinate their separate functions toward the common end ol governine. This co-ordination was inte nded so that each element would perform certain functions without hindrance fromother co-ordinate branches. Cut for many years these functions have been confused, and it has come in one way and another that the Senate has absorbed both legislative and executive powers by a series of usurpations that have produced legal anarchy. While socially strong, anarchy is the actual condition of our iovernment, and in lesser degree has been its condition for half a century. Instead of co-ordinating branches with well-defined functions we have a score of warring factions. It i a grave weakness in our Constitution that it nowhere provided for a controlling force. It seems that all effort have been concentrated to destroy any controlling force, and to so hamier the action of all that none of them could exerciso a function without the improbable concurrence of four separate elements. There has been a constant struggle for mastery between them ever since public afiairs partook of political importance, anil this struggle has created a chronic condition of suppressed civil war, in which one faction ami then another has been dominant and despotic. The strong instinct of elf-preservatiou aroused by the civil war barely carried us through the crisis, and this more through popular momentum than by effort of the Government, where a continual war of factions made the country the prey of a thousand rulers. Not one dollar out of four contributed to carry 'on the war reached its proper destination; the balance was captured by contractors, cliques and rings that by collusive participation, ramified throughout the entire legislative and judicial, and through the Cabinet, even to the executive brane hes of the Government. This anarchical inerticiency was so enormous that, although after the cloe of l'"o2, the Government never had less than 1,1."0.00( troops upon her pay roll, it never succeeded at any time during the war in getting even so many as "u,000 within striking distance of the enemy. The enormous corruptions of rings for stealing the revenue's the lamous whisky ring being only one among the many; the credit mobilier schemes, and a thousand othe r similar en terprises, were engineered aud maintained by oiftii prominent in affairs. (Jrant was totally unable to control it, and gave it up in disgust. Popular sentiment and even Congressional legislation is agitating that the control of Indian affairs be given to the army, bec-au.se It is the only element of the Government honest enough lor the tru-t. It must be said, to our shame, that in the army alone, of all the instruments of (iovernment, is there any controlling force, method and executive capac ity. It is destroyed in other branches from the excessive subdivision of authority or power. It is true of the law, because the instruments of the law are affected by the same weakness. Taxe and oflices were farmed out to the highest bidder through Senatorial courtesy. After the Senate by an act of revolution, usurped the total functions of government, this practice tf selling the offices was continued by Senators as a rr.-mal prerogative. Garfield attempted to cure the c-vil and was shot. So docj--seated had this perquisite become, that two Se-nators resigned in high dudgeon the rmment this authority was questioned. And still it continues, as flagrant and shameless as ever, and still It must continue until the Senate is stripped of the power it has forcibly usurped. To talk of civil service reform in this connection, according to the lopnlar appreciation of the term, is like talking of emptying the ocean with a spcon. The evil lies not there, but in the Senate Chamber, and it is there the remedy must be applied, even if the constitutional powers of the Senate are revised and curtailed by constitutional amendment, and it is a3 certain as fate that if this thing is not susceptible of a traceable cure, it will end in a civil war. It is just as certain as that the cure is necessary for the preservation of Itepublican institutions, so entirely subverted by this oligarchy that at present is the only real rulfng power in the United States. Oligarchy is the grave of republics, and imperialum is the grave of oligarchy. There is not a man in the country who would not prefer the despotism of a Bismarck to the despotism of this oligarchy represented in this Senatorial assumption of iower which only governs as a robber. Nearly all the evils that atltict us can be traced to this very point. It was the ruling jower that caused the civil war. It never did, and never will until the usurpation is overthrown, be more than a constant menace to securitj and prosperity. The lot of Senators who went off by themselves, in the face of an overpowering public opinion, to et up an opposition Government solely because they could not have their own way with quite so much absolution as they had been accustomed to wield, found eiact repetitio l irhea two more resigned because their personal perquisite, the New York Custom-house, was refuse them. It U tltt ma: thi?'. it it tltf

same cause, and the same th:ag3 and causes are just as potest for disorganization as they ever were. It comes to the surface whenever its usurpation ia questioned it is at the surface now and breathes fire and vengeance at the very mention of the President that be would yfuse to give them any reasons for removal of any oflicer under hi3 control. Now, the Senate Las invited this conflict by a vicious and peremptory challenge. For purely personal and partisan purposes it declared to the President that he shall ia no way interfere with this privilege, ( 'onstitution or no Constitution. We hope the President will be firm enough, or obstinate enough to hold his josition at every hazzard. The Senatorial assumption is the morass of political iestilence that breeds all the corruption that has made Hepublican institutions a farce. It controls and debauches Legislatures on one hand and ccntrols and debauches the Government oa the other; it reaches from the primary to the head. It is the all-controlling, irresponsible iower through which our omn:iotent of rings take their rise aud flourish. The people will stand by the lresident. They have tiower and organization sufficient to support him, and the strong, unerring instinct of self-preservation that went out in universal popular approbation of Lincoln and Garfield will be forthcoming. If there be any who suppose that the eople do not understand tnis issue, and understand it mainly as we have here expressed it, it is because they do not mix with the eopIe nor attempt to learn their sense on it. It is officially expressed in the platform, of every farmer's grange, in the Knights of Labor; it is the talk at the grocery store, in every street corner and in every village. It is heard equallj' in the counting-house and work-shop. It is only in the closets of the colleges and in the recesses of the sanctums, where one would expect to find the perception in its highest development, that it is lacking; and it is lacking because the habit of theorizing has rioted like a noxious weed at the expense of perceptive judgment. It is as true now cs when Cicero formulated his fas kjiIi tonic! under circumstances almost identical to those our Senate presents. No matter what the ultimate solution of the civil service reform question may be the Senate should, for every reason, be shorn of any power over it; so long as it has this control all the evils will remain, and be no less under one name than another.

A kkcknt allusion to the eminent Scotch statesman and author. Sir James Mackintosh, recalls to an old resident of this city that the first, or one of the first, pastor of the Colored Methodist Church here was Hev. Sir. Mackintosh, a half-blood or less, ot unusual intelligence and amiable disposition, and said by those professing to have means of knowing to have been the son of a vagrant brother of the celebrateil Sir James, who lived for a time in the southern part of this State. The church was on Georgia street near the canal, and was occasionally occupid by the noted colored Hishop, Qainn, of Haltiruore. When tke original Christ Church, on Circle street, was removed to make a place for the present edifice, it was taken to Georgia street to replace the old colored church, and was occupied till it burned down sometime during the war. We notice in one of our exchanges a little collection of noted sarcasms and savage sayings. On'- of the bitterest we ever encountered was that of the late George D. Prentice, who said of narney, of the liouisville Democrat: "If he ever eats his own words he will die of r-oison or starvation." John Van Huren said even a bitterer thing of an Albany T.at-er's attack on Silas Wright. It was written bclore the great New York shitesnian was known to le sick, but published the day alter Le died, darin? the night, before his death was learned. Said "Trince John": "The blow aimed at living statesman fell on his new-made grave, and by an inscrutable disj-ensation the assassin was converted into a hyena." It is suggested that no dogs .hoahl be allowed to run at large but those that have been inoculated Pasteur fashion, the idea being that ihey could not infect anything with rabies. ' Hut Pasteur hims?lf does not know that, and does not claim it. In fact he says the whole inoculation scheme is an experiment only, a promising one. but not an assured success. And he said, in a meeting of scientists, recently, in reply to a question "whether inoculation would render a dog incapable of comlnnnicating rabies," that he had never given that point any thought, and he could not answer it satisfactorily. It was Mulberry Sellers who first discovered that the appearance of a flame ia a stove hael much to do with keeping warm. The temperature of a room may be sLxty degrees or more, yet if one hears the wind whistle around the house and sees the windows covered with frost he will feel cold unless there is a cheerful blaze before him. We have all laughed at the Colonel without thinking that we fool ourselves in precisely the fame way, though without his imagination, not quite so bad. One of the contemporaries is quite right in saying that the prospective war between the President and the Senate will concentrate all the factions for the great battle in 1SSS. It is one of those things that draw attention of people from a multitude of side issues to a governing fact. Such times are the only times when a teople really exert power. There is a genius in the bottle the Senate has dragged out of the sea of confusion. Will it dare to open it? We shall see.

Ia referring recently to the death of Charles Foster, the eminent spiritualist, a writer in the New York Tribune says: My first interview with him was jhm ulinr snd striking, from almost any point of view . I had ua i a serious crisi s in my business affairs, and wascc'titempiating an imjortaut enaiijie, vith rciae grave fears as to Its result. I met a frit nd down town who inc identally spoke of having a recent interview with Foster, and c.f his wonderful powers. My curiosity was excited, aud I expressed a desire to see sonic 'mini!ct!,tioi;s." "Why not go with me now."' said my friend, and I gladly consented. As we cnte.-ed ;r.e room unannounced. Mr. Foster, who wassittinu at Instable in his shirt sle-eves fairly enve'oied ia tobacco fciDOkc, turned and "accosted me at onr. mentioning my name, and re-mnrkius: "You areattended with a number ol friends, and one of them wishes me to say to you that the cha'ige you contemplate in yovr business i just the thing to insure your succe. He says. 'tioon as yun now proj-oe to do. aud you will never l-e sorry." " "Well." 1 answered. "theMi friends are very kind. Who are they: Will you give me their names?" The one who )earsyou this iiew::e," sut he. "is a tall man with long, full beardan:! dark Mi-e eyes. He died about a year h?o oi consumption. I'thiuk he will srive his name," and with tlmt he took up his alphabet card, and bean to over it with the idea of having the letter. rapped out as they were touc hed. "Mo, no," said he, "he don't likethi wny. It Is too slow. He says he will write you.'' and the medium, sei.ini: a j-en. with ell jx--d wrote on a slip ol paper: "All riht ." liting my rrst name, which even mv friend did not know, bum a less the medium, "eio ahead. You are on the right true fc." and then cam.; the signature, bold and clashing, and it was almost a perfect ftic simiie vi my dead friend and former partner's signature, e lid'ing with a peculiar flourish sue b us he alwuyf. made. To tay that I was dr.mbiotiuded don't express it. 1 was well-nich dazed. I I:ad never even heard of Foster Ulore. and it he had hesrl of me he certainly could not have exirtf-ted me. ar:d as 1 never use my lirsi name in my signature, and few except Biy family frioix's know what it is. it astonished me to see it written out iu full. The peculiar thing HlMut it is that it W the name by which my den I friend al' ay accosted me. and no expression wax more common to him than "the right track. ' '1 his is only one of a series of thiaps. just a strange and inexplicable, that occurred during that interview, nnd in subsequent seances I saw thing which 1-wouid not expect any one to believe should I narrnte theui. I .aw inouuh to convince me that Foster was often an arrant humbug, but many oi his li-c!os:ires were, as I theu Uiieved, and no now . wholly beyond any trickery, aud beyond Iiis ow ti jowt r of explanation.

An Advance in Rents in New Yoik City. New York, Jan. '2.". Interviews with a large numbe r of the leading n al estate agents in this city appear in this morning's Tribune, They all seem to be exceedingly well ph ased With the outlook. To summarize the statements of many brokers and dealers, here is about Low the market looks and is: Husi ncss property outside of the drv goods district is already renting at an advance. For retail store property in the princii-al main and cross street thoroughfares, and well situated down town stores, below Canal street, owners are getting a considerable advance. Inquiric-s are coining in earlier than usual, and tenants are seeking an early renewal of their lease s, and in only in a few cases do they resist a demand for an advance. Landlords are committing themselves to long leases of this kind of property, except at advanced rents each year. In the drv goods district, possiblv, an exception may be taken. to the general outlook, and it is expected by some brokers that rents will show a litth- fallim; off. The desire of peorle to enjoy all the advantages of a modern equipped house, and the constant expansion of the population, sustains the rent market for dwelling prcqirty, and while the generous supply of apartment houses prevent an advance, as a rule brokeTS expe-ct to see last year's values upheld.

Lather Heuxon. Luther Benson seems to be taking Texas by storm. The Gat:sville (Texas) Advance in a recent issue says: Never before In Its history Las C.aU sville been addressed on this subject by so able a man. Henson is a born orator. Eloquence perches on his brow and beams from every ieature of his face. His speeches, far out of the common run of tuch orations, chain the audiences to their scats, and they listen to his charming, magical eloquence and his transitions from grave to gay, unconscious of the flight of time. The editor of the Advance has heard all of onr temperance lecturer in this Mate, and if all of them were -oinjrvwvl into one thev would not 1 equal to rensou. Hi Uuguajre is graceful and chaste, and he sa?-s nothing that could wound the tendervst heart or t.hoktho most modest sensibUity. He will lecture at -several points in Texas, and we take this method ot cordially recommending him to all our ieop!e, and we solicit for him th ir co-operation. He will do your people more good in oim lecture than any other man 111 in tea lectures, and his work lives alter he has potie. Here in c.atesville he touched the heart and reformed the lives of men on whom other aenci.bad been tried in vain. Mr. hi neon will tpend several week in Texas. He is not a roliticiau and doe not make political hlt-eehes. lie is a lK-mocrat. however, and is also a firm Prohibitionist. But his lectures are temerauce lectures, and euch as nil gd men can heartily indorse. He brings from his home at Indianapolis the highest testimony as to l-ds worth.
