It ia stated that the jockey clubs in va
rious parU of the country are contem

prevailed in many place#, and by which
c*m hi nations are formed for the purpose
f "skinning the lambs.” It is charged
that not infrequently the book-makers are
in collusion with the riders, and that they
can cause any horse to win that their in
herent requires. This has long been more
than suspected, but not until recently has
tte swindling been discovered to be so ex
tensively practiced ns it is. The reform
movement is about to begin in New York,
•ad lively times among the sporting men
may bexj*ected.
The Growls of the Office Seekers.
The office seekers are in bad humor be
cause the President is so slow in making
appointments to office. If the dispatches
reflect the condition of affairs at Wash
ington there is gr* t discontent among
the office seeking class, and a great many
patriots who think ther did good serv ice
for the party last fall are cursing the ad
ministration in wnispers because their
requests for places have not been granted
and are not likely to be granted.
Of course, it is distressing to know that
the President hasn’t met the expectations
of those who felt that they would be
needed as soon as the new administration
was inaugurated, and who caught up their
gripsacks and hurried to Washington,
so as to be on hand when the division of
the sjioils oegan.
Doubtless the President himself feels
that be has somehow or other done an
injury to a good many very est’inable
people by failing to appoint them to com
fortable places with good salaries. It is
not easy to see, however, how this un
comfortable condition of aflairs is to be
chansred for the better.
Many of those who were loudest In their
approval of the civil service i!ak in the
platform adopted at Chicago last July
are the ones who now sarcastically ask
w hether the President is a Democrat, and
whether be jirojioses to jiermit the Kepufc-
Ucas to enjoy the fruits of the Demo
cratic victory. After pledging their party
and candidates to stand by civil service
reform, they can scarcely restrain their
wrath because the old-time spoils system
is not inaugurated. Consistency in poli
tics, however, is not generally exj*ected,
and it is not surprising, therefore, that
the effort of the President to be consistent
and to keep his promises should cause
mutterings of discontent.
If the President sticks to the policy
which he has adopted with respect to the
offices, it is hardly probable that there
will be a revolution, as has been threat
ened. in the Democratic party. The per
centage of those who voted for him who
want an office is so small that there is not
much danger of trouble within the Demo
cratic ranks it some of the applicants fail
to get what they want.
It is noticeable that the most of those
who thus far have been appointed either
were not applicants at all or, if they
were, did not press their claims very
vigorously. In making appointments the
President appears to proceed on the idea
that he has been chosen to administer a
great office for the good of the people and
not for the benefit of a few individuals
who want to live at public exjiense. He
knows, probably, that in many cases
those who arc first to put in their petitions
for places are the ones who don’t deserve
recognition, and who are not fitted to fill
any place creditably ; that, in fact, they
hunt for an office because they can t
make a living in any other way.
The country is too big to be disturbed
by the wails of disappointed office-seek
ers. What is wanted Is good and
economical government, and if the Presi
dent will give the people that they w ill
be willing to let him take his time in
making changes in the offices.
Gen. Jaekaon'* College Deputation.
The Daily Courier, or Buflalo, New
York, in connection with its comments
on those apjwintcd to represent this coun
try abroad, publishes a letter from lion.
James O. Putnam, of Buffalo, who was a
classmate cf Gen. Henry R. Jackson’s at
Yale. The letter of Mr. Putnam was in
resjionse to a request of the editor of the
Courier for information about Gen. Jack
son. As it shows the estimation in which
Gen. Jackson was held by his classmates,
and may, therefore, have considerable
local inteiest, we publish it in full:
TANARUS„ the Editor of The Courier: To your
request that 1 snould tell you what 1

fervor of mv 4o vears ago:

Ilf is from one of ihe Urst families in Georgia.
I pronounce him the genius of his class. He

March 23.
A Tramp Worth Xolicing.
The opportunity to say a good word for
a tramp occurs so seldom that it ought to
be improved when it occurs.
The tramp who protected a couple of
ladies near Wadealiorough, N.C., men
tion of wffiom was made in our dispatches
yesterday, appears to have been a better
sort of a tramp than usually applies for a
night’s lodging or something to eat.
The two North Carolina ladies were
afraid, doubtless, to refuse the tramp a
night’s lodging, and they were afraid to
have him about the house. In their di
lemma a bajqiv thought occurred to them.
They would offer the tramp a bed in the
closet aud lock him in. They carried out
this programme, and if it had not been
for the burglar who broke into their house
they would have slept peacefully, doubt
less. throughout the night.
It may be that they think that the
tramj> was directed to their home by a
special providence, and that the same
sjMHiial providence su guested the idea of
locking him in tbe closet along with the
sugar lowland the preserves.
Without inquiring into the influence
which directed the tramji into the closet,
it is fair to say that he proved himself to
be a pretty brave sort ot a fellow. When
the iadivs let him out of the closet, very
much as a dog is unchained from a ken
nel, he made short work of the burglar
w ith his little pistol.
If the lavlies did the fair thing by the
tramp—and doubtless they did—they
gave him honey on his bread at breakfast,
and told him that he might lodge in the
closet again when he came that way. All
tramps are not as had as they loos to be,
tut there is no doubt that they are fully
as filthy as they ajipear to ho.
Ureparlag to Retrench.
The Senate is beginning to understand
that its extravagance in sjiending the
public money is being gradually con
demned throughout the country. A Re
publican Senate cannot afford to vote
money for junketing trips for its members
whl'e a Democratic administration is
inaugurating reforms and introducing
eeouomy into all the departments of the
government of which it has control.
It is certainly time to 6top the practice
of allowing Senators to travel about the
courtry at the expense of the people
when Congress ss not in session. The
information which these junketing Sena
torial committees pick up is about as
valuable as some ol the reports which are
published by the Bureau of Agriculture.
After the worthless stuff is collected at
great expense, an additional expense is
incurred in its publication.
The Republican Senators have just dis
covered, it ajpears, that there aie too
many Senate committees, too many com
mittee clerks and too many Senate em
ployes. There are about 300 people em
ployed about the Senate, in one capacity
and another. They are actually in each
other's way. It would be difficult for
some of them to define their duties. Dur
ing tbe long period that the Republican
party bad control af the government thou
sands of men were placed on the pay rolls
for whose services there was no need.
The whole aim of those in power appeared
to be to provide for as many cf their
friends as possible.
The Republican Senators are quick to
see that the Republican party would
suffer if they instituted no reforms in tte
Senate, while expenses in all the de
partments were being reduced to an
economical basis.
The example of the administration is
having a very good effect. If it had not
begun at once to carry out the promises
made to the people in the Democratic
platform with respect to economy, it is
pretty certain that the Republican Sena
tors would not have taken steps to stop
the extravagant expenditures of the
Senate.
Lunar and the Cattle Companies.
Tbe Secretary ot the Interior may not
he very practical, and be may not have
much taste for details, but he is an honest
man and is straightforward in all his
dealings. Before doing anything be wants
to know whether it is right that it should
be done.
It seems that he has been looking into
the contracts by which cattle companies
enjoy the right ot using the lands of the
Indian Territory and Oklahoma for cattle
ranches. Cajitains I’ayne and Couch,
with their followers, have been driven out
of Oklahoma two or three times, while
the cattle companies have been allowed
to remain. Tbe companies certainly have
no right to occupy the lands unless
they obtained it from the Interior De
partment, and it is difficult to see why
greater favor should be shown cattle
companies than those seeking homes.
The dispatches yesterday stated that
three United States Senators were thought
t > te interested in these cattle companies.
It this statement is well founded it ex
plains, to some extent, why such bitter
war was made on the Oklahoma boomers
while the cattle companies were not mo
lested. Those who had influence in
official quarters were looking out for tbe
interests of the companies.
It is not probable that Secretary Lamar
will show any preferences. It will not be
at all surprising it an order shall be is
sued which will free Oklahoma from cat
tle men as well as from the land grabbers
who are trying to get a foothold in the
territory as settlers. A cood many little
schemes, in which j>roiuinent people are
interested, may he discovered il the heads
of the different departments search close
ly enough for them.
It is stated that ex-Attorney General
Brewster takes a jiessimistic view of the
condition of the country. He can 6ee no
good to come from a Democratic adminie.
t ation. The country is doubtless in a
bail fix from a Brewsterian iioint of view.
The rutiled shirt days of the Republic are
gone, jierbajis, forever. •
Very little is heard of Gen. Hawley
now-a-daya. It would be interesting to
know just how he is standing the racket.
He once said that he felt like he could
not lear to see the government in the
bauds of the Democrats. The General is
a good man, but he docs not weigh quite
25) pounds.
Office seeking may be looked upon
pretty much as St. Paul looked upon
marrying. It is better for a man not to
want an office or apply for one, but if be
must have one, there is no sin in apply
ing for it, and using every fair means to
get it.
CUUKKNT COMMENT.
In the Line of Reform.
Xttcttrk Xeiei ( Dem .)
The work of prunim; anil lopping off is in
the line of the reform pledges made by the
administration. Nobody will object to these
economic proceedings except the men who
want office and the men who don’t want to get
out of easy positions.
Uncle Mfdill Not Happy.
Chicago Tribune [Hep.)
The nomination of Pendleton as a Minister
abroad is in keeping with tbe popular idea of
what should be, hut there is nothing that may
he called recherche about the rest of the names
sent in Monday. It’s quite vulgar and enough
to make any of ihe more select of the Mug
wumps lie right down ou liis back and
scream.
Cutting Down the Duties.
Washington Post (/>em.)
The people will l>e satisfied for the present
with such an adjustment of duties as will ob
viate the accumulation of any excessive sur
plus in the Treasury and relieve our com
merce from unnecessary restrictions. Iliat
the House of Representatives and the admin
istration will fall into line on this question is
assured, and the Senate cannot afford to lag
far in the rear.
What a Democratic System Contemplate*
St. Louie Republican (Dem.)
But a Democratic system contemplates tiiat
the sole |iolitical distinction under it shall he
that by which mer't is recognized in the se
lection of its possessor to be the representa
tive and servsnt of his fellow-citizens. This
is the proud humility of Democracy —the very
opposite of that system under which places of
trust have been viewed only places of profit.
And it is with tills proud Democratic hu
mility that Missouri stands before the admin
istration with the conscousness of having
served well, expecting that in opportunities
of further service it shall not be placed at a
disau vantage.

\v eek before last, while the Baptist Church
of Clinton. X. C., was beingrc-covcred, one of
the workmen, who is a great sinner by nature
and much more so by practice, got on top of
ihe spire, which put him about one hundred
feet above the ground, and thinking then the
most apt time that ever would present itself,
sang, "Nearer, my God, to Thee.”
Ax extraordinary act of vandalism has
been committed at I.aval, France. The fine
statue of "Psyche,” by the sculptor Lavigue,
which had been purchased by the Minister of
Fine Arts, who presented it to the town of
Lava), was found to have been knocked down
from its pedestal and broken by some un
known per* in during the nignt recently.
Some of the inhabitants had objected to it for
tlie absence of drapery.
The so-called “madstone” is a comjiosite
substance in the sliajie of a porous stone,
sometimes found In the stomach of rumi
nating animals, usually deer, and is popu
larly supposed lo l>c efficacious in drawing the
virus from the wound made by a mad dog.
The matter was not long ago investigated by
a committee of physicians where the mad
sioue is highly valued, and their conclusion
was that belief in its efficacy was a delusion.
Some striking tailors, arrested in Boston,
gave such fictitious names as Stanislaus
Spooliski, Martin Graherkollaroff and Ivan
Tookinastiteh, and their ingenuity completely
deceived the grave and reverend congrega
tlonalist, which, taking them for Russians,
remarks that "their names arc significant as
to the nationality of the men who attempt to
enforce the tyranny of trades unions in a free
country, to which they have fled from Old
World restrictions.”
Nottoway county, Va., the region in
habited by the first settlers, and made in
teresting by reminiscences of Capt. John
Smith and Pocahontas, is fast returning toils
primeval condition. "In twenty years it will
be a wilderness,” prophesies a visitor. The
residents arc old and sad. The young have
gone to more promising regions. Deer
browse wiiere eatlle fed, and the oak and
pine cover great plantations where the negro
onee cultivated corn and tobacco.
"Mk. Lodge,” as a New York correspondent
writes, "has taken great pains with an
edition of the writings of Alexander Hamil
ton which the Putnams arc bringing ontat
New York in eight volumes, but of which
only the first has yet ap(>eared. The edition
is a small and codly one—limited to 500 copies
and sold for s•> a volume—but it will be com
plete and will contain the pamphlet on tbe
Reynolds ecandal in Hamilton’s career, which
has long been suppressed, so that cjpies are
now very difficult to procure.”
Last Friday Daniel Smith, from Washing
ton county. Me., arrived at Richmond, Ky.,
and went to the country where “Smith, the
hermit,” who has been in that region nearly a
quarter of a century, was found in his hut.
The hermit soon recognized his brother. He
is Capt. Lorcy Smith, formerly of Nova
Scotia, who, in a state of mental aberration,
left his home over 20 years ago. He accom
panied hi* brother to Maine. He has a family
in Nova Scotia and about 700 acres of land.
It is likely that the first opposition Cleve
land will meet with from the Democrat* when
Congress convene* will be iqion the cur
rency qustion. Upon this the Eastern Demo
crats and Republicans agree. They will fight
shoulder to shoulder and it will bring
them closer together, while the bitter
ness of the silver Democrats, if they are de
feated. will widen the breach between them
and their executive. The Republicans will
make this an issue in the Congressional cam
paign two years hence and will charge the
Democrats with being opposed to honest re
form if they fail to support Cleveland at this
time.
In view of the fact that while in other coun
tries the population i* increasing, in France
the deaths outnumber the births in some de
partments, M. Sarcey contend* that fashion
has a good deal to do with the stagnation of
the population, and it being the fashion to
ridicule large families, the result, especially
in the better classes, is a family limited to
two or three children. He has observed that
in England the mother of eight, ten, or *vcn
more children is an object of respect, and not
by any means liable to lie ridiculed, while a
French woman, moving in good society, with
such a large brood, is considered almost a
phenonenon.
Lord Wolbklky’S old French instruc
tor at Montreal relates this incident:
"Once I said to him, quite propheti

tail answer said: How ciinl e J

Arthur was then serving as a
warm iriendship sprang up. it was probably
due to this intimacy, in a meaaurs at lasst,
that he was subsequently appointed Colonel
of the Life Guard at Izmdon.”
A bather good story is told at the ex
panse of s gallant General commanding one
of the English out-listricts. At the time
when the Suakin expedition was being got
ready he was summoned by telegram to Lon
don. No appointment as commanaer-m
--chief of the suakin force had as yet been
made, and he went to the Bar Office full of
high hopes. These hopes were still further
raised by the first words the Duke said to
him. "l'have sent for yon, Gen. ~ to ask
vou if you arc prepared to accept the com
mand of-” The General’s face beamed in
anticipation of the high honor about to be
conferred upon him. "The command.’ wtnt

A recent review of the drug trade in the
United States shows the effect of the East
India quinine on the market, Quinine and
cinchona bark are on the free list of importa

from South America where the tree is l dig
enous. East India planters commenced the
cultivation of it. and they are running the

A number of candidates for foreign missions

It is tlie rare exception w here the foreigners
here give a dinner or reception. Tbe only two
members of the foreign society wiio entertain
regularly are the English and Russian Minis
ters. The English Minister has a regular fund
for entertaining. His income is as large as
that of the president of the United States.
The Russian Minis'cr has al-o had a sum giv
en him for entertaining. He has given regu
lar weekly receptions all through the season.
He has also given a few dinners. >V iili the
exception of a few dinners none of the other
European Ministers have done anything in
the way of entertaining this winter, i'he
Japanese Minister gave one reception ordy
during the season.
A DESI’ERATE effort is being made to se
cure a pardon for Cede and Jim Younger, the
noted outlaws of Missouri, captured near
Stillwater, Mo., eight years ago, Bince which
time they have been in the Minnesota peni
tentiary. Some vears ago Cole was a resident
of Dallas, Tex. lie was on the police force,
and made a good officer. 1 ater he was supe--
iutendent of a Sunday-school iu that uity. lie
rt cently vrro c a letter to J, Franklin, of Dal
las, asking him to hind a De'ition to the Gov
ernor of Minnesota, signed by those who knew
I him while a resident ot that city. He says
Maj. John N. Edwards is working in his bc
huli in Missouri; that Senator Cockrell prom
ised his brother, now living at Jackson Uity.
to do all he could to effect the pardon, and
that Senator Vest would also sneak a word in
his behalf. Cole Younger soldiered during
the late war under Vest, and Senator Cock
rell ami Cole’s oldest brother were school
mates in early days. Cole says his health and
Jim’s is very jioor, and that they suffer con
stantly from rheumatism and the wounds
which have never entirely healed. He closes
by saying: "I hone Clevela: yl, Lamar and
Garland " ill bring about a change in every
thing.” Two very long petitions will go to
Minnesota soon asking for their pardons.
About three mouths ago the churches of
Dayton, 0., inaugurated a series of revival
meetings which are still continued. People
by the hundreds have flocked to their meet
ings and the result is that many who never
before attended church Lave become con
verted. Among the converts was a young
man known a “Curly” Bucher, a lively,
reckless sort of sinm r, but now one of tiie
hardest workers in the vineyard. In the days
of his recklessness lie was familiar with a wo
man who seemed to have him in her power.
She forced him from the church, out he
returned, and all her coaxing and threats
were in vain. On Sunday evening last she
became desperate and, arming herself with a
revolver, she went to the church determined
to shoot ‘ Curly.” A note betraying her in
tentions preceded her, and as soon as she ar
rived and was seated one of the elders arose
and startled llio congregation by the an
nouncement, that there was a woman present
with a revolver in her pocket who had at
tended the services to commit murder. lie
did not denounce her, but uttered a pathetic
prayer in her behalf. The entire services of
the evening were directed at the woman, and
she loft the church subdued and in tears. She
returned Monday night and was there again
Tuesday night. Sho asked for the prayers of
the congregation, who are now nopeiul of
making her a useful member of the church.

TV - IIEN we. for want of room in our store on Whitaker street, were •compelled to remove
YY to our present spacious quarters, 151 Broughton street, next to David Weisbein’s, we
resolved to do there a Retail business, and to sell our goods, by the piece Of." yard,
At the Closest Wholesale Prices.
In determining on this policy, we simply intended to ATTEND TO OUR OWN BUSI
NESS, and not to hurt or challenge any of our competitors. We have, however, stirred up a
hornet’s nest by quotations of prices for
SILK SATIN RIB33ONS
Heretofore sold by our competitors at almost double the price. It apperra they must
have felt it severely or else they would not have stooped to become personal.
YVe accept the challenge and extend it to our entire stock of
MILLINERY GOODS,
Especially as regards to our large varieties of shapes, grades and q uallties of Straws,
many not found elsewhere. Our reputation for REAL FRENCH FLOWERS and FINE
FEATHERS we shall jealously keep unimpaired, and desire no more than a intelligent com
parison. We desire to state that we have devoted the entire building (tbr ee large lofts) to
the Millinery business exclusively, which is necessary for our large and complete stock.

MR. STERNBERG DESIRES TO ACQUAINT HIS PATRONS AND THE PUBLIC AT
LARGE that he has just returned from New York: with an exauisite selection of DIA
MONDS, WATCHES and JEWELRY of all kinds, far rmperior to anv ever s*n in this city
under one roof. Owing to the extreme dullness of the tj-ade in New York ana all over this
country, he has found the Wholesale trade and Manufacturers of Jewelry extremely anxious
to realize at any price. In most cases, strange as it 'may appear, they were willing to dis
pose of their wares at almost the actual cost of the G'ld, and, la consequence I feel gratified
in saying that I have not only the NEWEST STYLES, but the CHEAPEST GOODS IN SA
VANNAH. and, as I am willing to part with them at a small advance on cost, I consider it a
rare opportunity for the purchase of goods in my l’ne—an opportunity that will not occur
again very soon. I feel that my reputation is sufficiently established that I need not again
assure the public that my gooils are as reliable as if they were purchased of a high-priced
establishment at TWICE THE ACTUAL VALUE. 1 01 * 1
