She rallied slightly yesterday afternoon, but heentne worse again about seven o'clock In the evening, and continued to sink gradually until dissolution occurred this morning.

The Inherent feeling was fostered throughout her school days, both during the six years of her education lu Delaware and later lu the Wesleyan Female Semluary in Cincinnati, where she completed her school course and was graduated. It shaped simply and naturally the ways of her home life, the manuer of her hospitalities and her custom lu society, while alio moved through them all as the "wife Of private citizen, a Union Generrfl, a member of Congress, r Governor of her native State and President of the United States. Mrs. Ilnyes as JIUtress of tho Wl.lto 1IUU4X. St. Locis, June A Washington correspondent has this to say of Mrs. Hayes' career at the White House: The death of Mrs. Rutherford It, Hayes reminds many people of the force of character the displayed while mistress of the White Hotie. Notwithstanding many people regarded Mr. Hayes as a man holding another man's office to which ho aad no moral risht, and catering the White House under extraordinary methods. Mrs, Hayes undertook the task of smoothing the way for her husband. In this she succeeded. She Mr$. It. had much prejudice aad slander to counteract and the world may never appreciate the ceatle heroism with which she met Ulfflcuttiei la her way. She was a woman of education aad refinement. She understood the art of eatertaining better thaa most wom?n wn in hlzb social poMtion do, Few women would have attempted, what she did successfully, to entertain entirely without the use of wine at the table. The person connected with the official household of the President durin? the four years of the Hayes administration werd atl derated to Mrs. Hsyes, and the news of her itanjeerou illnevs and d;ath has caused thsm much Rrief. Several of the present official force wero at th-j White House at that time. Their recollection of her is covered with a warm aad personal recard. It was one of her tasUs to overcome the prejttdlce that was in the minds of some of the public men against the administration. So successful wa-s she in this that after a conversation with her Senators, Democratic and Kpublican, were often beard to glxo expression to most enthusiastic copllirirnts of her prace as a hostess. Senator Gordon, one of the most ardent partisans the Democrats hid in the Senate, became" one of hor most earnest friends after meeting her at the Whtto House. He spoke of her as a rare woman. Tbe one thin? that caused much talk about Mrs. Hayes was the stand she took on tho temperance question.

Count Kalnoky, addressing the Delegations yesterday, stated that the peace of Etirojw was not endatigered, although the situation was unsettled. The condition of things in Hervla is such that Austria la bontnl io cunrd against subversive measures which may be contemplated by her enemies in that country. There are a few nations which manifest disc uitent and would perhaps welcome a disturbance of the balance of power In Kniie.

The flagman of the shifter had jcone to the telegraph tower, but as a heavy rain was falling at the tltue it is not known whether the engineer on the fast freight golnur west saw his signal or not. In any event the flyman was no back half far enough, and, had his sitrnal j been observed, Uie engineer coulduot possiblv have stopped his heavy train of forty-two cars on the down grade in time to avert the accident. The train, going at a speed of twenty-five miles an hour, crashed into the cars on the bridge, tearing up the rails, and plunged over the side of the stone bridge, a sheer desceut of forty feet, Into the bed of Loyal Hanna creek. At the same moment an east-bound freight was passing on the other track. One of the wrecked cars caught the car next to the caboose on this train, wreck ing it and the caloose and badly using up the pushing engine. Eighteen loaded and thirteen empty ears, together with engine No. 1313 are a total wreck. The debris took fire at once, and although held in check by the local fire department is still burning. Euglner Caldwell and Fireman Fra licit went down with the locomotive aud e still under the wreck. The loss of life can not be accurately estimated. Aside from the train-men, it is known that there were beween forty and fifty ' men on the west-bay ml train who had j been working at Johnstown.

'In appointments to every grade and department, fitness and not party service should be tho essential nnd dlscriminKtlns test" Such was Ben Hero is the Ksrfonnancc of less than a year later: A few weeks ago President Harrison appointed George P.

Hsher is not uu known to fame. He was district attorney of the District of Columbia under President Grant, removed, and in 1866 nominated for office again but withdrawn. The New York Tribune nn that occasion sooke of him in these terms: The district attorney's offlce la Washington was, for a loos while, under Judge Fisher, the chief bulwark ot the district rlar- There were hatched the coaapiraetea to convict innocent citizens of felony, the plots to get rid ot witae ises. the schemes to take burglars out of Jail. Crimes of the most dastardly character were committed under the sheltering eaves of that scandalous establishment. Theft, and riot, and bribery, and perjury received there .eaeouragement and protection. Two of the asittaat attorneys have len tried ia the criminal court for grave offenses, aad are to be tried agata. George P. Fisher, who was chief ot the eSee during the period whea it was a disgrace to the whole Nation, couid not escape the responsibility tor the actions of his subordinates. Whether he was only foolish, inefcclent and weak, or was aaswerable in some more direct way fer the doings of hi sob Charles and his ether assistant, Harrington, we need set Inquire. Incompetency ia a prosecuting offlcer is a bad enough oSease even when the best intentions wait upon it. At any rate, public opinion would not tolerate Fisher's appearance ia the safe conspiracy trial, and after some miserable revelations of the misconduct in nt ot&ce. Use President was obliged to call for his resignation. Aad aew General Grant names this same Geerge P. Fisher United States district attorney for Delaware. The Senate must reject the nomination without aa noun unnecessary delay. No sympathy which Senators may feel for the personal misfortunes of the nominee, co conviction watch some ot them may eatertala that he is saly the victim of his own weakBess, should deter them from a duty whteh they ewe both to the country and the party. If General Grant will net think of Republican interests, we hope Republican Senators will So much for Fisher, President Harrison's choice for a position where millions of dollars of claims must be adjudged. Evidently the election bargains of Harrison are not all paid yet. j A short time ago President Harrison , appointed PauV Vandervoort superln. i tendeat of mails at Omaha, Neb. The leading Republican newspaper in Ke- , braska is the Omaha Bee- It spoke ' of Vanderyoort when he wae appointed in these words: I Pftfttmaster-Geaeral Gressam dismissed 1 Vandervoort because he had been losubordlr,nt hd m&de raise resorts to iae aepant d had been absent from his pest of duty two huadred and s'xty-five days, at Omaha, la one alngle year.

" He often detailed railway mall clerks from the service to assist him In packing ward caucuses and ashling at political primaries aad substituted for these regular mail clerks irrespons ble vagabonds and bummer, who were transported in the mail cars ia charge of the mails without cvea taking the oath. Unless "hypocrisy is stamped on cverv page and line" of Harrison's i . . . . . .1 ! . . . letter oi acceptance, tue apputiiiiuvuw of Fisher and Vandervoort will be 1 canceled at onoe. They will not be canceled. Albany (K. V.) Argus. THE RACE QUESTION. It Wilt Be Worked for All There la la It by Harrison's Hoaaea We find the following concerning Mr. Harrison's "Southern policy" in the Jsew York World: Kaewlas; that the eld policy of aejro deaslsattaa can never again he established there, Presldeat Harrises), with the eeld-bleede calculation whteh characterizes the "practical politician" whose ceaselesee is cared for by his rellglos, propesei to hare the colored people to do as they did durlast the administrate as of Hayes aad Arthur, aad at they have on the whole done very ereditably ever ataee namely, to shift for themselves. Wo do not understand that it is properly a matter of conscience and Vluty for any President of the United States to interfere between the races st tki South. The citizens of the State under all constituted theories are supposed to "shift lor themselves.'' Hut it will be found when Congress meets, we think, that the present Administration means to force a race issue, if it can. The old policy of agjtatlon to create sectional prejudice will be pursued. The President will not join in it personally, because he is not in a position to do so, but he will promote It as far as he can, leaving the active work to be done by his supporters in Congress. He Indicated this clearly enough between ilia lines f his inaugural address, and it is the course that he would naturally If not Inevitably pursua. A President of great force of karacUr might reallga parties, but

Mr. IlarrUoM M a narrow man. liarig ho other fore than that f vntn which impel him ia tkia direction or that He will not attempt to divide the negro vote or to change the attitude of the. KepuWlean party a the aesro pftrtT. The negro vote io nee-

e6ary to itepuuuoan imiosts in me oloe Statue of the North. The eare with which the President ha beea oultiratiafT negro preachers in Indiana shows that he realizes this, and he has shown in Congress and on the atump that lie believes agitation Intended to keep the negro a political issue la the main essential of thorough-golnjr Republicanism. He Is Kivhijf very few offlcee to negroes, but it Is wall known that white Republicans are only memhers of a nogro party in a Pickwickian sene. This wa4 as true of Grant as it wae of Hayes, Garfield or Arthur. No o 4, . a. f III. 1 a a I one who Knew urani is itKwy w ulieve that he held tho nogro fit for citizenship. He supported the nogro governments at the South with the uri. a u nactv imusnrr. Harrison i ni ..., " J -J - i U different in this respect only because the times are different As si partisan he resembles Grant more than he does Hayes, Garfield or Arthur, each of whom had individuality enough to assort individual opinions on occasion. It is not to be expected that Mr. Harrison will do any thing of the kind. He is no better than his party, and he could not well bo worse. His "Southern policy," when it is viewed retrospectively, will probably show no change from tho old Republican polff public, I sectionalism. 'St Louis ReA DIGNIFIED REBUKE. How a Democratic Judge Iteplled ta lteUvit for 111 Iteslgnatiiin. Attorney-General Miller caught a tartar tho other day when he tackled Elliott Snndford. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Utah, whom the Administration has recently removed. To a letter from Miller requesting his resignation, Sandford replied asking if there were any charges against him and stating that it would be unbecoming and improper for hint to resign until they were proved or disproved. This brought a reply from Miller in which he said: "The President has become satisfied that your administration of the office was not in harmony

anairs, anu tor una reason tie uesiruu to make a change, and out of courtesy j gave you an opportunity to resign.' The judge's answer was to the point, He wrote as follows: "In reply I have the honor to say that my earnest purpose while on the bench as Chief Justice of the Territory has been to administer justice and the laws honestly and Impartially to all men, under the obligations of my oath of office. If the President of the United States has any policy which he desires a Judge of the Supreme Court to carry out in reference to Utah affairs, other than the one I have pursued, you may say to him that he has done very well to remove me." Whether this message is conveyed to Harrison or not is not stated, but it will probably warn Miller against entering into any particulars hereafter regarding the cause of removals. Chicago Herald.
