THE first office that President Hayes ever held was that of City Solicitor of Cincinnati, and he was elected to that by a majority of one.
I THE whole constitution as it is," and, "He serves his party best who serves his country best," are the golden sentences of President Hayes* inaugural.
THE inaugural address of President Hayes bears marks of having been carefully considered, notwithstanding the shortness of the time. It is brief but. very mack to the point.
GATH" telegraphed to the Enquirer concerning the new President: "It was a quiet inauguration, but with a hero behind it. He declared war against the politicians, with their consent."
"WHY do drummers flirt T" Is answered by the Catskill Recorder thus: When they visit Catskill, it ia because fool girls countenance the dangerous practice." The answer will hold good other places just as well as that.
OWING to the failure to get through with the business on hand, Governor Williams called an extra session of the Legislature to meet Tuesday morning. A concurrent resolution passed the house yesterday to adjourn on Monday.

A VERT destructive fire took place In New York Tuesday night. The Wal tham building, a large business struc ture on Bond street occupied by the American Watch Company, the Gorham Silver Ware Manufacturing Company and a number of other silverware, watch and jewelry dealers, was totally destroy ed. The loss is estimsted at not less tbsn one million dollars.
UNLESS the fraudulent Preslnent's physical digestion is as powerful as bis moral digestion, he ought to be careful to secure the services of a competent chef de cuisine. An improperly cooked beefsteak or an underdone potato might alter the destiny of the nation.—[N Sun.
Noticing the above, the Toledo Blade observes: "This kind of thing ia infinitely worse than the broad-mouthed bluster for which Dion Pott was indict ed. The only difference is that the editor of the Capital said a great deal more than he meant, while the editor the Sun said a great deal less. In esch case, however, good judgment would lead us to consider the source of these utterances.
IT IS the opinion of Jane Grey Swisshelm that those women who have made their way into the profession of law have not generally acquitted themselves in a manner to give confidence in the ability of the sex to maintain itself in this field. "They will, no doubt, come to it by and by," says Jane Grey, "but we need to have a good many mothers reading. BlaekBtone as they now do George Eliot, to lighten their domestic labors, that the mother-mind may traBS fer to the daughter a decent respect for law." Busy mothers reading Blackstone to lighten their domestic labors is good. Hardly anybody but Jane Grey would have thought of that.
WOMAN'S KINGDOM," which appears every Saturday, in the Chicago Inter Ocean, is edited by Mrs. Elizabeth Boyn ton Harbert, who is well known In this city. Mrs. Harbert is President of the Illinois Woman's Suffrage Association. The three columns which she controls In the Inter Ocean are to be used in the interests of the woman's suffrage cause, as well as in the interest of woman in a more general sense that is, in efforts to increase their knowledge, elevate their thoughts, give them'a better idea of their own powers and aid in perfecting plans whereby they may earn their own livings which are matters much mord important and vital than voting.
E-
THE President on Wednesday sent to the Senate the following nominations of cabinet officers: Wm. M. Evarts, of New York, Secretary of State. John Sherman, of Ohio, Secretary of the Treasury. George W. McCrary, of Iowa, Secretary of War. Richard W. Thompson, of Indiana, Secretary of the Navy. Charles Devens, of Massachusetts, Attorney General. David M. Key, of Tennessee, Postmaster-General, and Carl Schurz, of Missouri, Secretary of the Interior. The President and the country are to be congratulated on the selection of such men. Without exception, they are able and distinguished statesmen of the very beet clsss.
CONCERNING THE SPRING ELEC TIONS. There is perhaps no class of men in the United States who receive a more liberal, and generally undeserved, share of abuse, than those perse ns elected to manage the business affaire of municipal corporations. Every newspaper scribbler, every property-owner, every taxpayer, dead beat and pauper, oonslders himself fully qualified and empowered to criticise, condemn snd curse "the council" as a stupid, Incompetent, thieving set of blundering blockheads whom it were base flattery to allude to in ordinarily respectful terms. This visions habit has so grown on people, they have become so sccustomed to it, that it is hardly possible sny longer to induce a man who has any regard for hia reputation, to accept the position of councilman. It ia an annoying, exasperating, thankless position at the very beat. In this Stats there la no pay attached to it— or nt*L to none—and the man who consents to take it a seoond time, is, certainly, either a very self-sacrificing patriot, or a very greet fool.
Of course, not unfrequently, Incompetent men are elected to the council. It cannot be denied either, that sometimes dishonest ones get in. It is especially true, however, that men of business* cspitalists, and large operators, who are the first to be affected by public extravagances, prodigality, and the injudicious employment of publlo monies, are precisely the citizens who are responsible for such state of affairs. The men who pay the largest contributions toward the expense of running city affairs, pay the leaf practical attention to the business of having them ot nducted judiciously. Apparently they are content to leave the disbursement of what they pay to anybody who will aocepttne undignified duty. By their acta they say, "We do our duty in contributing, now letthoee who take little or no part furnishing the funds, see to disposing them. Should one of these men adopt soeh a couree in hia own private hininnsa aflhixs, disaster would soon follow. Bat though he Is sensible of thle, he rarely takes the time or the trouble to consider how the policy operates when applied to public sffsiis.. He

the public fttnds squandered snd mlsmansged, taxation increasing rapidly, everything going wrong but what does he do towsrds staying the Impending ruin which be deplores so loudly? Why, he sits idly by snd criticises the publlQ officisls be curses this one, tbst one, or the other, snd ssys that "it ia shsmeful" tbatauoh men should have publlo trusts oonfided to them. He will talk till the air is blue bat that is all. Instesd of taking hold like "the politidsns," whom be condemns so heartily, he stands off and finds fault. If there is incompetent or dishonest management of city affairs, these are the men who are to blame for it. Twenty or thirty substantial citizens any ward of this city, acting unitedly and with determination, could easily decide upon its political fate and if they do not consider such a consummation worthy of the effort, then they should bear the consequences of their own neglect with becoming patiencc .and resignation. If they are too busy with theirprivate af fairs to act at the proper time, or too1 nioe to attend the ward meetings when party nominations are made, they sbonld abstain from grumbling about what is dons after it has become to lato to remedy it. There is time now to select such a set of candidates as will suit them. Will they doit?
THE bard times have exploded a great many tremendous humbugs in the business world snd scattered into thin air any number of airy castles erected dur ingthe wild speculative period which succeeded the war. One. after another they have gone and now iconoclastic necessity has attacked the life insurance gods, even in the gorgeous palaoea in which they have enthroned themselves, and is pulling them, one aftsr another, down to the dust. The spirit of distrustful inquiry which the case of the New Jersey Mutual Life and other exploded concerns has awakened, will, without doubt, result in the exposure tmi wiping out of other similar institutions now on the ragged edge, and ready, at the first experience of official investigation, to wind up their affairs. The work so auspiciously begun should be carried out with promptness and the utmost thoroughness.
THE appointment of Col. K. W. Thompson to the position of Secretary of the Navy gives the most unbounded satisfaction in this city and vicinity. Democrats and Republicans alike rejoice at it. Every citizen in all this region feels that it is a fitting and appropriate compliment to the grand old man who for almost half a century has been a leader in national politics, and one that dees President Hayes as much honor as it does him. No man in public life ever bad a purer or brighter reoord in all that pertains to the virtuous snd patriotic citizen than all know who know blm at all belongs to Col. Thompson. He Is the idesl cabinet offieer wise, coble, Incorruptible the unchallenged "Chevalier sans peur tt sans reproche."
COL. W. K. EDWARDS has been freely spoken of for some time as the most eligible person for the Republican nomination for Mayor. We alluded to the fact last week. Desiring to prevent any misapprehensions as to his willingness to be a candidate, Col. Edwards furnishes us a card,, which is published in another column, in which he states positively that he could not accept the nomination If tendered to blm. This will be a serious disappointment to many dtlzens.
PROFESSOR SEELYE IS a very great man—Infinitely superior to ordinary hu manity. President Hayes must have been profoundly impressed when See lye was introduced to him the other day and solemnly revealed the situation in theee oracular words: "You have before you a great peril and a grand opportunity but I have more hope than fear 1" It was real kind in Seelye to add that last clause.

A PUBLIC reception was tendered Col. Thompson Thursday evening, at the Opera House. Notwithstanding the worst snow storm of the year was raging during the time, and for hours before and after, a large crowd was present snd the proceedings of the moot enthusiastic character, Democrats as well as Republicans partidpated.
Nq MATTER how much the politicians may rave, President Hayes may rely on the hearty and almost unanimous support of the people in his Southern policy. Let him go on with firmness In the couree be has marked out and be will be the most popular President the country ever bad. ____________
IT is more than possible that President Hayes' cabinet will oontain at least two men whom the Oat holies will not regard with any high degree of veneration—R. W. Thompson and Carl Schurs.

%TBB WAR WHOOP.
A MOST TERRIFIC AND BLOODY INDIAN FIGHT ON MAIN 8TKEBT. W»'. ,•»
This same vicious squaw not long ago came near killing Sam Goetz, punching a hole in his head through which the most inward working of his active brain can yet be plainly seen. Only a week or two ago she took Til Ogle's scalp and otherwise maltreated blm, and it is said that John Reagan does not dare go out alone by tbe same Jo«r by which she stands, for fear of a surreptitious attack. She has jumped at Jo. Fellenzer, sr., once or twice, and he is obliged to carry a loaded revolver on the half- cock when ever he comes about the store. In the melee of Thursday night, she had her right arm broken at the wrist, and may probably be more docile until that heals but it would be weli for passers-by lobe on their guard while In that neighborhood.

On Thursday evening aa John Ffellenasr wss attempting to remove the lndian squaw which decorates the front of Fellenzer A Go's dgar store, 803 Main street, Inside the store for the night, the vlndiotlve and bloody-minded eavage suddenly made a deadly assault upon the 'unsuspecting young man and for ten minutes it was extremely doubtful if he would escape with hia life. This Indian squaw is a large, finely-formed female and In this engagement proved herself extremely sotive and dangerous. Mr. Fellenser had just backed her up in front of tho door of the store, and was trying to persuade her to enter, when ahe suddenly sprang upon him In the moat furious manuer and bore him to tbe ground, frlllng with all her four hundred pounds of solid Indian flesh full upon him. Tbe unfortunate young man struggled to free himself from her embrace and made the most heart-rending cries for assistance, but before he could be rescued the blood-thirsty savage had so mutilated him that be was almost beyond recognition. It Is said that she raised him up and flung him against the flagging several times with the strength of an infuriated giantess, falling on him with her lull weight at each repetition of this fiepr'isb sport. She choked him, gouged his eyes, snatched whole handsful of hair from his head and tried her utmost to bite his nose and ears off. She vidously shook and dragged him from one spot to another, like a dog with an old umbrella, till the sidewalk was smeared with blood, hair, etc., for twenty yards araund and every mipute gave utterance to tbe most horrible war whoops. When at length aid came and the victim was rescued from the dutches of the bloody savage, he was hardly recognizable as the same good looking young man that had a quarter of an hour before unsuspectingly gone to his fate. He was covered with bruises from the crown of his head to the sole of his foot. A surgeon was promptly called, who dressed the numerous wounds and at the present writing the sufferer is confidently expected to recover. It was a close tussle with grim death In its most appalling shape, and he would undoubtedly been killed on the spot but for the timely arrival of assistance.
