One of Secretary Richardson's objections to the Civil Service examination is, that the result has been to fill the departments with Marylanders, because they were nearest to the seat of government, and could attend examinations with the least expense. J. A J. Cresswcll is responsible for this opinion, for in his desire to be Senator from Maryland he has crammed the post office department so that fifty per cent. f the employes are from hi? State. - The postal authorities state that the railroads, in a quarr 1 with Government, have much reason to object to the condition of the contracts with the Government which require them to supply free messenger service from the railway station to every postoflice within eighty rods of the depot. This has become a very serious question, especially on limes whee the stations are very close together. Besides, it places the mails for a eemin period in the hands of irresponsible persons. The expense is very great, and the railroad officers state that the annoyance and local difficulties which result are very much greater than of the expense. On some lines the compensation received from the Government goes to these messengers. It is understood that the Senate select committee on transportation have under consideration the propriety of relieving railroad companies from this condition of the contracts, and requiring postmas ters to attend to this delivery service without additional compensation. Some of the poal authorities recommend this change. One of the conditions of the changes if effected, would bo that Gov one-ha- lf ernment henceforth should have the choice of train upon which the mails should be carried, and that the poetul authorities should, in all cases, have the rignt to place postal cars upon all the fastest express trains. The President of the Boston and Albany road is represented to have stated to the department that he wo Id be willing to carry the mails for $100 per mile less if he could be relieved of the annoyance and responsibility of the messenger service. The associated press having snt hence a ptatement to show that the debt of the District of Columbia did not exceed $10,000,000, the amount authorized under the organic act; the books have been examined and the whole debt is shown to be over $17,000,000. A detailed exhibit i? published The answer to this exhibit will be that many of these items are in a funded shape, and would not be estimated ns a debt. No sane man will admit tbat the taxable property of this district can bear the burden of a debt of $25,000,000, as it will reach this figure before we get through, and at the same time carry oa the present system of Government. Our only hope is for Congress to assume the f of our debt, whole, or at least and in future to assume the expenses of the District, over and above what is realized by a tax ef $50 to $100 on the taxable property. As a step toward this reform the present Government must be wiped out, or if the people are to govern, let all the officers be elected, and not humbug us with this miserable farce with which we are afflicted at present; vhich, from its very origin, has been the 6ource of profligacy ' and expense largely in excess of the expenditures of many of tho State governments of the " country. New York, 4. At the fight for the light weight championship between Siddons and Chambers, yesterday morning, on Coney Island, there were oflly about tweaty spectators. The ring was pitched as early as 3:80 a. m. Bill Donnelly was referee. Spectators made no bels. Round after round followed with unusual rapidity. Chambers fought fiercely and Siddons was soon seen to be overmatched. Chambers all through had everything his own way. The fight lasted one hour and forty minutes. Chambers' fighting appeared the most scientific and skillful ever known Siddons was fearfully punched, and at the last round was knocked out of time by a fearful blow. Chambers came out quite fresh. friends claim that he was not in condition. A match for $2,000 has been made between these men to fight again within ninety days. to-da- one-hal- ; Sid-don- s' Snapping Turtle. A ceeded in getting his family a little place, free of incumbrance, was fishing in Still river, near the Beaver Brook mills, on Sunday afternoon. After sittiog on the bank for a couple of hours, without catching anything, he was gratified to see on a flat stone in tbe water, a snapping turtle sunning itself. The butt end of the turtle was toward him, and he though he would capture it; but while he was looking for a place to step, the turtle gravely turned around without his knowledge, and when he got io reaching distance, and bent dawn to take hold of what nature designed should be taken hold of while handling a snapping turtle, that sociable animal just reached out and took bold of Mr. Gilsey's hand with a grasp that left no doubt of its sincerity. The shrieks of tbs unfortunate man aroused some of the neighbors, but when they arrived it was too late AO be of any service to him or even to themselves, for they just caught a glimpse of a bareheaded man tearing over the hill, swinging a email carpetbag in one band, and they at once concluded that t was a narrow escape from highway robbery. However, it was not he was swinging; it was a carpet-ba- g that turtle; and it clung to him until he reached the White utreet bridge, when it let go; but tbe frightened man did not slacken his gait until he got home. When he reached the house, tbe of the affair burst upon him, und when his wife looked at bis pale face and bare head, and clothes, and asked him what was the matter, he paid, "Nothing was the matter, only he was afraid he would be too late for church," &nd appeared to be much relieved to find that he wasn't. ludi-crousne- ss d Saratoga invites visitors to ? lunch of cold fried potatoes. S!f!22 1 V. VOI. IV Horrible Tragedy in Con- tra Costa Co., Cal. A diabolical attempt at murder, which is certain .to end fatally, was disclosed yesterday. In September last a German named Martin Geis-bacwho had a wife and one child, about four years old, leased llard-iug'- s old rancbe, which is located on San Pablo creek, about fourteen miles east of Oakland, and took up his residence there. Formerly he worked iu thc6tables of the Mission 6treet llailroad, and bore the reputation of an iridastrious, peaceful man. Shortly fter ho commenced to work the ranche a man who goes by the name of William Nash, but whoso real name is supposed to be Armstrong, was occasionally hired to assist him. This Nash was known to be branded "D," which denoted that ho was a deserter from the army, and he was spoken of by those who knew him as an idle, follow, who lived by loafing about h, good-for-nothi- on farms. While he was employed by fiers-bac- k he was provided with a room in the house occupied by the family, and it was not long before the German had good reason ta suspect that an improper understanuing existed between Nash and his wife, who, it may be stated, is about 30 years of age, and somewhat repulsive in appearance. Ae time passed, Nash, whether he was employed by Gers-bac- k or not, occupied the room assigned to him in the house by the accommodating rancher, who 'was immediately rebuked by hia wife whenever he complained of the fellow's presence there. This made him more suspicious, and he accordingly watched the pair more closely than before. Very shortly he ob taiued positive evidence that his wife was unfaithful to him. And he thereupon taxed Nash with his treachery, but being an easy going man, did not force the fellow to leave the house, and so matters proceeded as above. About a week ago, Gersbach called on a neighboring rancher named Roland, and informed him that he had found chloroform under his pillow, and stated that he was afraid his wife and Nash intended to poison him. lie further stated that prior to this Nash had threatened to shoot him, and that he was convinced both parties desired to get him out of the way. Subsequent events go to prove that his fears were only too well founded. Last Friday cven-iuabout duik, Nash came hurriedRoland and told him that to ly Gersbach had been shot a short distance from the house. Roland did it,aud what had bcea done for the unfortunate mau. Nash replied that he knew nothing further of the occurrence, and that Gersbach was still lying where he had fallen. Roland then requested him to accompany him to the spot and sec what could be done ; but Nash refused on the pica that he intended to go at once in search for a doctor. He then left in great haste. As soon as possible Roland started with one of his workmen to where Gers' bach wub lying. 1 They found him in or insensible condition, with a frightful wound in the back of his head and another smaller one in the back between the shoulders. The wound in the head was evidently inflicted by some blunt instrument, while that in the back was unmistakably a bullet wound. Witness making a closer examination they carried the insensible man into his house and immediately dispatched a messenger to Oakland for a police officer and a doctor. For some inexplicable reason neither ap pcared at the ranch that light, aud , , A man named Gilsey, who, by strict economy and severe industry, has suc- II g, ask-edw- when Captain Tarbett and Dr. II. P. Rabcock did come, the following morniug. it was ascertained that uo intelligence of the murderous assault was received at the Statiou-hous- o earlier than 8 o'clock that morning. What induced tho messenger to delay in executing his errand and where he passed the night can as yet only be conjectured. Ger&buch had remained in an uu conscious state the whole night, and it seemed as if every moment he was going to breathe his last. The lo.Ks of blood had been very great. in the back of tho head wax found to have driven tho ikull into the brain. It was irregular in shape, aud measured an inch by an inch aud a quarter on the surface. probed the wound in the back and succeeded in extracting the bullet, which had lodged in the breast, midway between the two nipples. This wound was not considered dan gerous, but tho other Dr. lhibcock declared fatal, and said uothing couM be done fcr the sufferer, who, however, by reason of his vigorous constitution, might linger for two or three days. After considerable effort the unfortunate man was restored to partial consciousness. The doctor then asked him who ioflictyd the injury, and ha answered, ''William" (meaning Nash), in very good English, but after this it was impossible to get anything frem him but incoherent German. In the meantime the houst Rlood stain had been searched. were found on tho ladder which con ducted to the second ttory which contained tbe room that was usually occupied by Nash. Capt. Tarbett ascended to the room and found a large hammer, covered with blood and hair, eecretd behind a trunk. It was evidently the weapon which had been used by the murderer. A suit of Nash '8 clothes, stained with blood, was likewise found in the same room. The woman was placed under arrest, and last night it was reported that she had made a full confession. Nash, who was last seen in Oakland yesterday morning at 9 o'clock, in still at large, but as hia photograph is in the hands of the police, the. chances are that he will be tracked. Gersbach still lives, but it is impossible that he can survive many hour. longer, As the scene of the bloody occurrence is out of Alameda county, Captain Tarbctt will remain in charge of the house and the woman until tho Sheriff arrives from Martinez. It may be stated further that yesterday week, Gerssbach sold som.i calves to the value of 8300, and no trace of the money can bo discovered. The inference is that Nash is a rob'. ber as well as a murderer. Tin-woun- Tin-docto- r Chronicle.
