As matter of fact, however, the Preside* has so far, simply obeyed and executed tlid laws he has found laid down bi ■law-making branch os the government, He has enunciated no policy, mended no law, and avoided giving ex pression to his viedif on the giving litlcal questions, and this course'he will continue to pursue until in his first, message to Confess .and the country, in Decemlter tiextcha will clearly define his position on living questions, issues freely’, fairly anfl honestly his position add administration - only lie honestly on trial after im am hie advisers have thus given to th ■ country the official expression o; their views, and have marked out aefiictc’” the policies theykvoidii pursue. 'Vhile the .prospects at this time are. all most flattering for democratic vi tories in New York, Ohio and Virgin¬ ia, t\e result of the elections in the -f states cannot be Wl as conclusive as to an endorsement or condemnation of the President and his administration as they will not be fai: ly on trial until the people krow %. policies they will advocate. It is now apparent that the Repub.i cans expect to run the next caigpa’sm on the issues of fwentywyeitrs ago ; tlie horrid remlniscencies of -a dead and buried past, shrouded in the habili¬ ments of wr,e, and covered from Jifght in the sacred mounds that are scatter ed oyer tlie hills and valleys from the lake to the gulf.

Our family quarrel is settled foiever, and the only questions now to he so! veil are how best to perpetuate what has iiei n preserved ; how best to subserve tho interests of the whole people ; how best to make "a govern¬ ment by the peoidfe” in which the high and the low, tin rich and the poor shall all be best protected in their rights, immunities and privileges ; a govern¬ ment that shall he the model for all times and never die. The resignation of Messrs. Eaton and Gregory as members of the Civil Service Commission have given to President Cleveland an opportunity to reorganize said Commission and to e’eariy indicate by the appointment ot their successors whether he will stand firm i:i the future as in the fact in favor Of true Civil Service reform. While many in both parties entirely dissent from the idea of the Civil Ser¬ vice law now upon the statue hook,and others are openly hostile to any law upon the subject, tlie President has shown himself honestly in favor of the law, and in fayor of correcting any er¬ rors therein and making it more per feet. While some of his subordinates may violate the law the President lias on every proper occasion unqualifiedly c mdemned such violation. The New Pension Office Building in Washington is rapidly approaching completion.
