After an absenco of a week tho Nationals
returned homo yesterday morning, and In
tlio afternoon met their chief rival for tho
championship honors of tho Eastern League.
Iu view of tlio fact that tho homo club had
como out tho victor in two out of thrco
game played in Richmond thl week, our
baso ball enthusiasts wcro endowed with a
liberal degrco of confidence that jigaln vie
tory Would porch upon our representatives'
banner, nnd .well did tho boys repay tho
hope that had been placed In them, as thoy
won In a masterly manner, and out played
their opponents both at tho bat and In tho
field.
(Julio a largo anil enthusiastic nudlonco
was In attendance and tho grand stand was
comfortably filled with handsomely dressed
ladles and their escorts, who bestowed their
applauso with liberal Impartiality, both
upon'tbo visitor and tbo homo tilno, when
a brilliant play called for their approval.
Promptly nt 4:30 tho gomo began with tho
Aatlonals at tho bat. Knowles, tho first
striker, went to first on called balls, took
second on Hoover's hit, third on a passod
boll, and camo homo on Corcoran' throw
to second to catch Hoover. Powell struck
out. Fulnicr flow out to (llenu, and Mooro
died on first by Greenwood' brilliant stop
nnd throw to Latham. In tho second In
ning no runs wcro mado, although Whlto
mado a hit and went to third on a passed
ball, but camo to an untimely cud in at
tempting to como from third homo whllo
Corcoran threw tho ball to Greenwood to
head off Ilokcr, who was attempting to
steal second. In tlio third Inning. Hoover
led oil with a hit, stolo second, wont to
third on a-passed ball, and camo homo ou
Latham's error. Tho fifth Inning was pro
ductive of much oxcltcmcut, Knowles
opened up with a good hit, Hoover struck
out, Powell was hit by a pitched ball and
took first, Knowles going to second, but
was cut oft by taking too much room off
second base, nnd was put out by Nash,
Corcoran and Hlggins nssistlnir. Fuhncr
went to his baso on balls. Mooro hit n
sharp ono to Hlggins, and that young man
very considerately fumbled it and allowed.
tho Callfornlan to reach first. Things now
began to grow Interesting, and aVhlto
stepped up to tho bat It was do or dlo. Ho
bit a sharp grounder to Greenwood who
handled it well, but throw a Httlo wild, and
V hlto reached first safely whllo Powell
scored. There wcro still threo men on
bases and two out whon Baker faced tho
pitcher, and right noblo did ho como to tho
rcscuo by driving tho ball Into left Held
for n bit that brought In two runs, nmld
much applause Tills ended tho Nationals'
run getting, as In tho last four innings
only two men reached first,
Tho Virginias did not scoro until tho
fourth Inning, when thoy mado two runs on
errors of Gladmon, White, nud Fuhncr. In
tho seventh they got another run on Cor
coran's two-bagger and Householder's sin
gle, tho latter being tho only earned run of
tbo game. Somo brilliant playing was dono
by both nines. Iinrr's pitching was all that
could bo desired, as his record of striking
out thirteen men and koephig bis opponents
down to flvo scattering lilts will show.
Klmberwns also effective, but rather wild.
Powell. Fulmcr, Knowles, Whlto, Green
wood, (llcnii, and Hlggins did good work
in tho field, whllo UaTcor and Corcoran led
tho batting for their respocllvo nines. Tho
samo two nines ploy again thl afternoon,
when Gagus nnd Baker will bo tho homo
battery and Pylo and Householder that of
tho visitors. A closo nnd Interesting gamo
may bo looked for, nnd no doubt a largo
attendance will bo on hand to witness tho
i-umi'si. iuu ecuro was as ionows:

It will bo seen that up to tho administra
tion of Mr. Lincoln tho appointment wa
always given to a resident of tbo District,
and men who afterwards reached high
local distinction liavo held thoofllcc. With
the breaking out of tho war camo tho
cliangoln tho selection. Thero wcro no
prominent Itcpubllcans hero wltliwiom Mr.
Lincoln was sufficiently acquainted to
Justify an appointment of such Importance,
and In fact tbo loyalty of tho better class
of District people was not over' secure: so
Mr. Lincoln selected Col. Lamon, who had
been bis Ilfo-long friend, nnd In whoso In
tegrity, loyalty, and fidelity ho knew
ho could rely. Slneo then, oxcept
during tho administration of llaycs, tho
marshal has been selected moro from per
sonal preference on tho part of tho Presi
dent than from tbo political backing of tho
applicants. Hayes appointed Frederick
Douglass as marshal and then transferred
tlio personal duties which tho marshal had
always been accustomed to perform at tho
whlto houso to tho commissioner of public
buildings and grounds. .Mr. Douglass,
however, was a resident of tho District, ami
thero Is comfort In tho assertion of Presi
dent Cleveland that ho will select a District
man and a young man for appointment a
marshal when ho finally reaches tho subject.
THE C1TV POSTMASTER.
Next In Importance to tho marshal comes
tbo city postmaster, and hero, too, care Is
called for In tho sclcctlou. Tho work of
tho Washington city postofflco has grown
to such magultudo that It uow ranks as ono
of tho most Important ofllccs In tbo country,
Tho llrst postmaster of Washington was
Thomas Johnson, Jr., who wa appointed In
1705. Ills successor was Christopher Rich
mond, who held tho ofllco for only nluo
months and was followed by Lund Wash
Ingtou, who continued until Jan. 80, 1700,
when Thoiuus Muuroo was appointed. Ho
remained In offleo for over thirty years,
being succeeded by Win. Jones In 1830.
Mr. Jones continued for ten years, until
March 23, 1830, when he was relieved by
Jnmes S. Gunnel!, who, however, held
tho position but two years, and .jou.
July 10, 1041, Mr." Jiine Was " reap
pointed. On March 31, 1845, Charles (lord
lier was appointed, and ho was followed by
William A. Bradley and Col. Jnmes (1. Her
rct, uutll .March 00, 1858, whon Mr. Jones
wo a third tlmo made postmaster, remain
ing In olllco until May ID, lbOl, when Lewis
Clephano was commissioned by President
Lincoln. Ho was succeeded by Saylos .1.
Bowen on March 13, 1803, who resigned
July 20, 1808, nnd tho noxt day Col. Oi M.
Alexander took tho onice," holding It until
May 12, 1800. when ho yielded to James M.
l'.dmunds, who died Dec. Ill, 1870. Col. D,

removed by President Arthur In November,
1882. Thomas L. Tullock, tho nsslstant
pusiiiinsicr, wns men mono postmaster, and
continued uutll his death, on Juno 20, 1883,
nud on July 1. 1883, Frank 11. Conger, who
had been nsslstant postmaster sTnco tho
March previous, wns appointed.
iu uieso appointments it will also bo seen
that tho most of tho poslmnstcrs aro District
men, tho only poslflvo Importation being
that of Col. Alnger, for nlthough somo of
hi predecessor had not been born hero thoy
had resided In the District sulllclcutly long
to claim a legitimate residence and havo
sluco continued to make their homo hero.
THE IlEOISTEIt OF WILLS.
This Is n quiet, comfortablo ofllco, where
tho duties ore not arduous and tlio compen
sation Is consoling. It was formerly con
sidered to bo a llfo position, but when Col.
Webster was removed by tbo Into President
Gorlicld to appoint Mr. Itatnsdell, at tho
personal request of Mr. Blalno, tho subject
was Investigated and It wn found that tho
old Maryland law which fixed tho tcnuro
for llfo or good behavior had been repealed
by tho tenure of olllco act, and that now
tho register enn bo removed nt tho plousuro
of tho President. Tho original register was
John Hewitt, who was appointed Iu April,
1601, and bold tho ofllco until July, 1818,
when bo died and wns succeoded by James
II. Make, who was tho father of tho Into
Dr. Johu 11. Blako. Ho only hold ofllco for
pno year, dying In August, 1810, when
ho wns followed by Henry C. Ncalo,
who continued for soventeen years,
uutll April, 1830, when ileoth
carried him on, and Edward N. lloach was
appointed. Mr. Hoach finished tho balnnco
of his llfo as reglstor, lasting for twonty
years, ami was succeeded In October, 1801,
by .Moses Kelly, who failed of confirmation
In tho Senate, and In August, 1803, was re
placed by '.. C. Bobbins. Mr. Bobbins
officiated until ho resigned In November,
16C0, when Col. J. It, O'Bclrno wa mado
register, serving until April, 1800, when ho
tendered his resignation, and was followed
by Col. Amos Webster, who was suspended
by President Garfield ou July 3, lbSl, and
II. J. Itamsdctl, tho Incumbent, was ap
pointed. All tbo registers of wills nuiy bo
considered residents of tho District oxcept
Col. O'Belrno.aud ho had resided hero about
flvo years prior to hi appolutmcut.
THE IIECOUDEIt Or DEEDS.
Tills ofllco wo created In 1803, when tho
work which It Involves was detached from
tho office of tho clerk of tho court. Tho
llrst appointee was N. C. Towlcs, who con
tinued In ofllco for two years, being fol
lowed in 1805 by It. M. Hall, who also lasted
two years, and was succeoded by E. O.
Eddy. Ho remained but ouo year, when
Judgo F, P. Cuppy was appointed, tho fol
lowing year giving way to Simon Wolf,
who held tbo olllco uutll 1878, when
Col. Georgo A. Sheridan was mado re
corder, nud In turn succeeded by Frederick
Douglass, who Is still In ofllco. Hero, too,
tho appointments went to District men,
Willi the exception of Col. Sheridan.
A review of tlio appointments to theso
four Important offices bhow that with the
exception of ouo recorder of deeds, olio
register of wills, ouo postmaster, aud In
tho caso of the marshal up to tho tlmo of
the war selection has always been mado
from residents of tho District, and It Is to bo
piesumed that with theso faqta beforo him
President Cleveland will consider tho claims
of District applicants for theso offices to
tho exclusion of thoso from abroad, Tho
number of applications for each ofllco Is
quite large, nnd up to this tlmo no action
has been taken savo to refer them to tho

Mount MtdiiEoon, N, Y., Juno 10. It
was after 10 o'clock this morning when Gen.
Grant wns nroused for tbo day. Ho had
slept well after tho doctor attended him
shortly after midnight, and ho dozed
through tho morning. Dr. Douglas this
moinlng used theso words, after having ex
amined his patient : "Tbo general's voice Is
audible this morning. Ho seems very well.
Tlio swelling outsldo seems less, and tho
Irritation lusldo Is slight. To sum up his
condition Is very good, better than a week
ngo. I think tbo change Is beginning to
benefit him." h
Late iu the afternoon Judge Hilton and
son enmu up from Saratoga and snt with
the general nnd family upon tho plnzza
more than an hour. Dr. Gray, of tho In

the general' during tho nftcrnoou. Dr.
Gray Is an extremely stout man, and Gen,
(limit wruto upon a card which ho handed
to his caller this bit of grim humor : "Your
shadow has grown no less sluco I last saw
you, but jou will notlco that mlno
has." Tho doctor laughed nnd the general
faintly smiled. Tho unavoidable weariness
caused by visitor to tho general was not
wanting Unlay, though iul affecting liliu
to a maikcd degieo. Miss Di'excl, tho
joung mistress of tho cottage, camo upon

until tho tlmo of tho returning train with

general lent his presence to tlio pattj
Tho sick moil's right enr, tho sldo of tho
glandular swelling, was to-day filled with
cotton to protect the car, which Is senslllvo
through sjmpathy with the local difficulty.
The general coughed occasionally to-day,
though his cough wns not unusually
troublesome, All In all, however, the gen
eral was not out of doors so much ns yes-teidnj-.
At sundown there bad been no
notlccnblo variation of tho conditions that
prevailed on Thursday.
Gen. Grant spent this ovcnlng upon tho
coltogo piazza until nearly 0 o'clock, nnd
when ho entered tho houso bo was led Into
tho front room, where ho wroto n notofor
Col. Fred Grant, calling tho attention of
tho latter to certain matters ho desired at
tended to In connection with tho work
on his book. This symptom of
reviving Interest In this work Is reganlcd
by tho family to-night with pleasure, About
10 o'clock Dr. Douglas retired. There hud
been no coughing after tho general entorcd
tbo house. Tho doctor demonstrated his
assurance of n good night by going to bed
so carlj', and tho family were equally
confident.
At midnight tho houso was quiet and
dark, except the usual light in tho general's

CLIDSTONEjm HISTORY.
THE OBAND OLD MAX'S POSITION TO
WA1U) THE BIIITISII FJIFIItE.
A Caustic Itovlow nf tho Situation In
i:nclnnd from a Conservntlva nr linn.
orrtttlo Slnndpiilnt Tlin l'nt nnd Fu
ture of tho World Circling Itnle.
Tho tendency of tho avcrogo editor lo
rhapsodlzo Is an nmlablo weakness to which
much must bo forgiven, under any clrcum
Manccs,notwIthstnnding It usual demoral
izing effect ou tho truth of current history.
But to persons Inclined to tho matter of
fact method of viewing person and thing
It my havo occurred that your recent
apotheosis of tho "grand old man" (o
called),allas Wllllaln E. Gladstone, Is carry
ing even nu amiable weakness too far. Thai
(lladstono Is "grcnt" In a certain wn' no
student of history of this generation will
dm)-. For example, during forty-flvo
jenis of uninterrupted parliamentary or of
ficial activity In bis country ho has demon
strated beyond doubt or cavil that hu I
tbo "greatest" demngoguo England ha
produced, that ho I tho most skillful
sophist, tho most adroit phrase-monger, ami
nbovo all the most consummate master of
Insidious cent and glided humbug known
to British history. At all times, and under
nil circumstances, (lladstono has been u
reformer with n Inrgo It. Thnt Is to ny,
his schemo of pollHcHl strategy ha been
to mlvcrtlsc himself vltb much nnlso nnd
vast vigor a a far licttcr and purer article
of animated clay than tho nvcrago human,
nnd to promise no end of wonderful bene
fices to result to tbo i ace by placing power
In his bauds.
By pursuing this schemo pf strategy
slcmllly and with n single purposo Mr.
(lladstono has succeeded in hoisting him
self twlco Into tho control of tho Eutrllsh
government, nnd lins held power cneh tlmo
n trlflo over live yenrs. Attaining olllco In
Diccmbcr, 18C3,lio held on until February,
lb74, when ho wns routed by tho general
collnpso of his nllegcil reforms, and by tlio
sudden awakening of the English peoplo to
the fact thnt, whllo they had been fasci
nated by his gilt-edged rhetoric, the solid
prtsllgo ou which tho existence of thu
British empire depends had disappeared.
Driven now Into opposition, Glndstouo
devoted tho next six yenrs of his career to a
couiso of conduct which impartial history
must stamp as tho most utterly selfish ami
most viciously unpatriotic system of low
diiiiagogy and baso partisanship ever re
corded iu English annuls. Ills successor,
Disraeli, upou entering olllco In 1874, foiiud
Great Britain a second-rate powcrln Europe,
pitied by Germany, dcsp.tcd bv Itiissln, aud
even distrusted by (ho poor Turk. Ho at
onco set about restoring tho prcstlgo that
had been frittered away. In tlio course of
bis efforts ho found himself confronted nt
every turn by Glndstouo. When Dlsrnoll
endeavored to check tbo designs of Hussbi
(lladstono appeared at tho foro as a Pan;
slnvlst. When It becmue obvious thnt tlin
preservation of that "balance of power In
Europe," which Is essential to tho mnlti
tcnaucoof Eugland'o rank ns a power, re
quired nn alllanco with and quasi
protectorate over Turkey, Gladstono wa-
ou hand with his resonant philippics against,
the Turk and his amazing eulogies of thu
corrupt and cruel despotism of tho Czars.
When Disraeli found it necessary to chas
tise tho Afghans Iu order tn guarantee tho
Integrity of tho Anglo-Indian frontier,
Gladstono was again on hand witli monsurv
lcss denunciation of tho sins of his con
quering countrymen lu Asia and extrava
gant applauso for tho heroic patriotism of
fchcro All's barbarous ragamuffins. In
short, from tho beginning to the end, Qlad-'Btor.obfliavlTittutlV-Juklflcil
tho scorch
lug description which DIsraellTjloaiffiTJT'
Insult nnd maddened by misrepresentation,
llnnlly flung nt him: "An alien patriot, a
vicarious philanthropist, tbo supporter nf
every government that is not British, tho
friend of every country but bis own I"
in tho Bamo speech Dlsrnclt said : "It ho
remained through all the ages for a repre
sentative of tho youngest of powers
tofonnulnto tho vivldest descriptive of
liue patriotism. It was un American who
proposed tlio toast, 'Our country; rlsht or
wrong I' A, ould to (lod tho mother might
gather wisdom from her child. That phraso
carries nil thero Is of patriotism. It mean
that the Hag which shelter must reeeivo
the benefit of orerr doubt In tho minds of
Its adherents. Without that spirit no
nation can long survlvo tho perils and tho
I utlo shocks of this predatory world I"
Every truo cstlmnto must bo based upon
common scnBo. Far-fetched theories of
phllautbiophy nnd line-spun scheme of
humonlliirlanlsiii nro not common souse.
Notions nro like men. They are honored Iu
proportion to their success nnd respect od Iu
ratio of their power. Wo must tafeo thing
ns they arc. Llfo I too short to bo spout In
constructing nuw worlds of fancy or in do
vllug new codes of human nature which
cannot materialize. Great Britain occupies
a certain place In tho economy of Christen
dom, and discharges a certain function In
the sum total of human destiny. No other
nation could take her place, no other power
dlsehargu her responsibilities.
Any great or sudden lapso of England
limn inu culms uuu now iioiiis would cor
talnly work vast changes In tbo map of thu
world, nnd with It vital modifications In tho
plan of modern civilization. Tho maintenance
of her piesent station is as Important to thu
rest of mankind as It 1 to herself. She Is
the great commercial, Industrial, and
Unsocial power of thl ago, and a such lm
shaped nnd Is every day shaping tho genlui
of the time Iu which wo live. Her uiilltu
rhm Is secondary to her urts of pence. Shu
has indeed a vast navy and a powerful
uimy, but they have loug been simply tho
necessary physical means to tho moml
ends, of which sho Is tho destined agent,
and that Is all. Does anj IkkIj- of common
fenso Imagine that the world mankind at
large would bo tho better for the substitu
tion of trench, or German, or Itusslan pre
eminence fpr that which England bus estub
Ihhcd and held for two centuries ns a uni
versal power? Probably not.
l ell, then, It must follow that tho gov
ernment which best embodies the real
genius of British power tho world'over I
tbu government that should receive tho
benefit of universal public opinion, free
from ciivyj, Jealousy, or rivalry. Thero
ought to bO no hesitancy Iu accepting thu
dictum that, Iu tho broad, comprehensive
policy, tho Conservative party In
dreat Britain cmliodlcs tho truo Im
perial spirit, cherishes tho best Im
perial aspirations, and lu power works out
!',"!: oglcally tho manifest destiny of tho
British empire, 'lory governments havo
mapped nud mado all tho conquests of
Greut Britain for nearly two centuries.
I hero Is but ono Instnnco to tho contrary.
Iho elder Pitt lu 1750 restored the fortune
of Eiigluud In tho old French war, nnd ho
vnsnhlg, but ho was not the actunl
premier, nud tho parliament that backed
him lip had a Tory inajoritylults commons.
It Is, Indeed, truo that England has been
for two centuries a predator)- power. It I
the boast of her statesmen and historians
that slneo tlio tlmo of William of Orange.
English blood has been shod on cvory soil
but tbo soil of England 1" This phrase)
alone and It Is literally truo describes
exhaustively a career of aggression and

of civilization against barbarism; uud thu
conquest of cnllghteumeiit over savagery.
