Last summer the Press announced that Mr. John Straiton, the million aire South American merchant, would be appointed Postmaster at Arverne-by the Sea, with a salary of $150 a year, all of which he propos ed to give to his deputy. A few lays ago Mr. Straiton received d letter from the Lord Mayor of Wil ton, England, the seat of the man ufacture of Wilton carpets. The Mayqr congratulated Mr. StraitoH upon his appointment as Postmaster General, saying that he had seen the denouncement of it in' a' Scotcb newspaper. He also inclosed a let ter from his sen, who is a schoolboy at one of the English public schools. The young fellow begs Mr. Straiton to un iergund tha( he is very glad his 'ather's friend has ben appoint ei Postmaster of the United States, and he adds that be is getting up a collection of stamps and hopes Mr. Straiton will send him some to add to it He also suggests that in his place as Postmaster he can show the foot ball players m American schools tnnt their rules are all wrong. ? , Mr Straiton has received other1 letters of congratulation from Great Britain and one from Australia for; his appointment j as .Postmaster of ew York, and one writer points a lesson to the youth of Scotland from the career of fr.

Here he is 1 I am one." - . The man who said this was a pop ular dramatist, noted for generosity. His statement was received with ejaculations of "Nonsense,"' 4tIm- po8sible !"

All present immediately crowded around him, and heard from his lips the following recital : "In 1834," said the dramatist, "I had just giyen to the theater of the Porte Saint-Martin one of the most successful of my pieces. One day about that time two letters reached me by the same post. Both were from Marseilles. One was from a theatrical manager, informing me that he intended bringing out my new piece there, and that he desired my presence at the final rehearsals of the drama.' With regard to re muneration for my trouble, I rnight make my own term ip reaioa-"The second letter a very brief one, ran thus : 'Monsieur, 'the wife and daughter of your brother are dying of want. Some hundreds of francs would save them, and I doubt not that you will hasten to visit connec tions so near to you, aud make ar rangements for their present And future comfort 1 This letter bore the signature of Dr. Iambert of Marseilles. "As I have already to'd you, I was a miser in the worst sense of tbe word - The physician's - letter, far from moving me to pity, merely re newed certain angry feelings which had formerly existed in my mind toward my sister-in law. When, some years back, my brave sailor brother, who had sinceTbeen 'drown ed, had written to tell me of his approaching marriage with a fisher man's daughter, 1, in my miserable pride and miserliness, had replied j.bat i n marrying a puuiless girl I ebjereo! thai ne was doing a most foolish and degrading action.

But I said nothing of the sort My only thought was how I might more ea sily escape from the threatened bur den." The little girl, who had : been gazing at me with wondering eyes, now came to my side and said : Will you please sit upon the bed ? Because you are too tall for me to kiss you if you stand.' 1 i "I sat down and the child climbed upon my knee. Her mother's eyes were closed, and her : hands' were clasped together as if in' prayer. Unaffnghted by my black looks, the little one threw herarms around my neck, and pressed her lips to my cheek 'WilT you be my papa?' said she I will loye ypu so dearly 1 You are like' papa. He"Wasvery good. Are you good, too ?' - Mj only answer was to unclasp her arms somewhat.roughly from . my neck, and 1 set her down upon the floor. She bast upon mem glance of min gled surprise, disappointment and fear, and a tear rolled slowly down her cheek. Her silent sorrow work ed the miracle that her pretty, fond prattle had failed to effect. As by an enchanter's wand, tbe ugliness of ray character, tbe otter brutality of my conduct was revealed to me in that moment. I shuddered in hor ror and self disgust, and yielded at once to my good angel. I lifted the disconsolate little maiden ' into my arms and, laying my hand upon her head, said : 'Yes, nay child; I: promise to be a father to you ; you shall be my dear little daughter,! and I Will lova and take care of you always j "$bw happy this promise made my sister-in-law words fail me to describe.

Irl R Hicks, the weather prophet,' who has gained a' world wide reputation by tbe correctners of his pred ictions A combination of causes -conspire at the opening, and during the en tire month of April, which are cal culated to produce disturbances of maximum severity, and which-will overrun the limits of the storm pe riods in their normal state. Never theless; the moet marked and dan gerous 'storms will centre on and about the central dates of regular storm periods. The first period extends from the 3d to 6th We name the 3d, 4th and 5th as danger centres: As we enter the period it will grow very warm in Westerly partsand heavy storms of thunder, -rain, hail and tornadoes will develop and travel eastward, turning to snow and sleet in Northerly sections. These disturbances will feel the combined torces of Mars, earth, Venae, Mercury, a regular "Vulcan" period, and tne moon in opposition. Expect a general cold wave to spread over the country as the storms pass to the eastward, and prepare for frosts and considerable freezing northward in tbe intervening days and nights prior to about tbe 9th and 10th On and about these days it will grow suddenly very warm, and reactionary storms will appear in many parts, and with marked energy. Heavy bail storms are al most sure to result. Another dash Of eool to cold jwrrrer will fall in behind these disturbances, disap pearing gradually up to about the Utb.. Between the 13th and 18tb the whole country will feel the ef fects of a very warm waye, and storms of great violence are to b apprehended on and about tbe l$th, 16th and 17'h. The 19th is tbe central day of the Venus perturba tion, which lasts with growing pow er for about twenty days before, and with decreasing energy for about -twenty days after the oentral day.! So that the Venus characteristics hail, startling electrical phenomena, enormous downpours of rain and sudden changes from hot to cold ; may be looked for during all tbe disturbances covered by tbe Venus period. The disturbances from 13th to 18th are apt to be prolonged by existing causes ue the reactionary due ahoqt the 21st and 221 It will be the part of wisdom to keep pru dent watch on all threatening storm cloudf that may arise during these disturbance? or durtog tbe month. Re ready for destructive hail storms, and for very sudden changes tooold. The 26th is, the central day of the last period for tbe month, which period embraces the 95th to 98th, inclusive. During this period it Will grow very warm again, and many heavy storms of rain, hail and thunder will travel from . west to east across our continent After the storms look for cold and frost. The month promises to end very cool. It is needless for us to add, to those 1 who have studied our foundation facts, that tornadoes are almost cer tain to be a feature of the storms in many places in April. But quiet, intelligent watching of the indica tions' will always keep you well pos ted as to what "is likely approaching your - locality. Very warm, sultry weather, with fjtroua winds from the east and south, will admonish you oj the- fact that the centre of the storms is still west of you, and that the developments are to be closely Watched. . Stead v winds frbm tbe West, with rising barometer and falling temperature, will always in -dicatewhen1 the storm centre has passed to the east of your locality, 'and, consequently, that the impend ing danger for that particular time is over.

Special One. of the amusing phases of every change of administration is tbe rush of persons in office to get the endorsement for retention from politicians of influence belonging to the pajty coming into power. When Mr. Harrison assumed office there was no end to the endorsement of Democrats in positions by Republi cans whose friendship they had ac quired, or who wished to oblige their Democratic friends. This practice has been peculiarly evident under the present administration. Repub licans who fear for their heads have raked the country with fine tooth com us for Democratic indorsements tor retention, and, to the credit of the Democrats be it said, these in dorsements have been liberally and frankly giyen. The prospects are, however, that they will be given no more, and that many of those already on the file will be with drawn. One of the secretaries who has a fine sense of humor said grayely today to Congressman Harter, who has been free with his indorsements of Republicans, that no appoint ments could be made of his recom mendation. Mr. Harter' was aston ished, and inquired the reason for this discrimination. "Why," said the Secretary solemnly, "you have already recommended all the ap pointments you could possibly be entitled to in this department, and your favorites are already in office. They are all Republicans, but aa they have been .recommended by you for retention they are charged against yon aa though you had rec ommended them for appointments, and you are entitled to no more " "Groat heavens," exclaimed Dar ter, "don't let this get out. I mere ly did it to accommodate Republican friends, to whom I am under obliga tions. Don't say anything about it. Let me get at those indorsements. I'll withdraw every one of them." Of course the story soon got out and spread like wild fire. Then there was a scramble for the various secretaries for the purpose of making inquiries in regard to the possibility of tbe prevalence of this policy. Secretaries caught on to the spirit of the thing with amazing alacrity, and Congressmen were generally in formed that endorsements of Repub licans wtfuld be charged against their quota of appointments. An extra corps of clerks are now engaged in each department to seek out and withdraw Democratic endorsement of Republicans for retention in of fice Tbs Gnu for Office. Editor Constitution I would be less than a man if I were not grate ful for the loving words that, have welcomed my return to Georgia. We have been here for ten days and every day has brought letters of brotherly and unselfish welcome, vv e left Georgia in tbe order of providence ; so do we come back to this little town to stay. Papers and people have made na welcome. God bless them all ! But some letters excite contempt. One came the second day after our arrival ih Oxford ; every day has averaged Sat least one. Letters beg ging me to write to Mr. Cleveland endorsing and urging for appoint ment to office men I never saw or heard of ! Because, I was friend to their father or their wives are Meth odists ! One before me now : the writer wants a district attorney's place. He begins : "Dear friend and brother," and winds up with lamentations over mv wife's rheu matism and "prays for ier recov ery 1" Never heard of him before ; if he had not wanted office we all might have died of Asiatic cholera without exciting his prayerful nerves ! Transcendentalism of hy pocrisy is this sort of writing. Another from a man silent to ne for years-and devoured with itch for an office he is not fit for, absolutely mourns over jny wife's rheumatism 1 He will see this and it will anger him. Be it so ; that indicates his capacity. For three gentlemen known intimately all my life I have written endorse ments of personal character. And they did not wail over my wife's rheumatism. For another, seeking a humble clerkship, a man of broken health, I will write to a Senator thus - "He is intelligent, honest and a good accountant." I hare nothing to do with politics. The strangers, who write to me, im agine that the relation I sustain to a great church may carry some influ ence! It angers me that even a fool should seek to use me so. What has the government to do with the church? What has the church to do with the government ? I would rather dig sassafras roots by moon light for a living than seek office in any such way. If the government owned a dog "and gave $300 a year to his keeper, there would be a thous and applicants for-Hhe "position." This furor is a bind of lunacy. I American self-respect dead ?
