"One by One the Roses Fall." John H. Stewarl, postmaster at Pittsburgh, Peuna., Is a defaulter in the sum of $75,000, A correspondent of the New York lltr<il<l discloses some facts in regard to the criminal neglect of lids member of the bread and-butter brigade, which we give bMow: 11 was foiiiyl Unit he \VttH I'UFti'K Lis .'iifplnvccs :i less stil:n \ than the sum ror which he tiled vouchers ;»i Wash- Itijrtoii vii.l swore w. re eorracti He also placed iipiin his pay-rolls and paid out ofthe governnient t'ttmls persons who were n<>t employed lii the office ai all ami who rendered no service of any kind or character. Among these may be mentioned v clerk at a livery stiihlc who received regular quarterly payments an n clerk at the rate of $1, --fiUO per annum, A daughter ofafor nier postmaster also drew regularly a hantisouii l salary, for which lio service whatever wus rendered. Ot| taking possession of the otflpe Mayor TAither [irldgu made ;t detnanil on Colonel HU'Wttrt Ibr the money hi his posses sion, Then is was discovered that the postmaster had never made any de posits in the United Btates depository, hut that lie had kept his account! 11l two banks, So one can Imagine what Colonel Blewartdid wilh the vast amount of money he is known to have taken. II is suid he was lav ish in his contribu tions to i he expenses of ihe Republican party, and only recently came down handsomely lor the entertainment of Generals Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and others on the occasion of the re union of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland. He had the reputa tion of lieiu.u a "deuced clever fellow," ttfmhe put up without stint for every udmlnist rat lon display that was made. 11 is oiiiee was tin- resort <>f Republican hummers, who drank with him arid borrowed from him, and who are now the loudest in his condemnation. To ". I (his man in position as a reward for his services to the administration, to retain Ids Influence among a certain class of voters, an old and most worthy t'ltlieir; against whose personal Integ rity there rested no solitary blot, was suspended. McClelland, the person alluded to, was not an active partisan and not vigorous enough t<» >f' v c a strong hand to the running of tlie po litical machine. He was laid on the shelf and a "nod, .sound radical, who fairly worshiped the sphinx, at Wash ington, put in his stead. The charge and it attending circumstances speak volumes. Justice of the Peace. Editor Herald:—lt seems to me that thoughtless people are making a great mistake in burlesqueliig the office of Justice of the Peace. It is not one of those positions which we can attord to trifle wiih. A Justice of the Peace in litis State has jurisdiction in all civil causes for any amount unders3()o. Thla includes almost four-fifths of the lili gation of the people. The mass rarely have a suit which involves sufficient to place it within the jurisdiction of the District Courts, Poor men, espe cially, ute the litigants who are com pelled to seek justice in the minor courts. Now, I would ask, are poor men's rights proper subjects for ridi cule? Are they not entitled toat least as respectable an order of ability In the judges who will decide their cases its the rich. The correct answer would he thai they are more entitled to it ihan the rich, for If a rich man be dis satisfied with a decision, it need not he litiitl with him, while a poor man nearly always exhausts his means iv the first eftbrt and in the court of lirst instance, li Ih not necessary that a man should be a practicing lawyer to till a Justice's bench creditably and to the satisfac tion of all. Hut he should, at least be a man of education, —one whose voca tion has habituated him to analyze all questions into the elements of right and wrong, and one who is sufficiently read in the law t>> fully understand its philosophy and principles. Voti were ['leased, a few days since, lo recommend me to the public <>n the ground tbat I was a brother journalist. I doubt if it occurred to you at the lime that I here was a more profound significance in the remark than you intended. A man who is successful as a journalist could not, intellectually, he a failure as.a judge. 11 is profession is a constant tax upon his conception of equity. If he he a conscientious journalist, his mind will have heen constantly exercised In discriminating between right und wrong, und after till this is the essence of law. James J. Avers. Coming Btvms.—Of autumn modes ii is hardly time to speak definitely, only one thing being assured. The promise of plainness, made [n the ear* iv summer, wIH be strictly kept. Su perabundant flounces and furbelows will take an unlimited leave of win ter wardrobes, and artistic simplicity reign in their stead. How our weary ami over-dressed women have Sighed for this change, they only are aware; uud thai they will hail the new order wilh delight in undoubted. It is hinted that the prospective styles will require not more than half the quan tity of the pas); hut this is a dream that seems Impossible of realization. It'is poLJmprobable that the newly modeled garments may have a 'skimpy' appearance, but Familiarity will soon arrange that, and once accustomed to It, weary eyes will be thankful they are no longer eompeiied to wan der' over vast iields of fluting! und hedgerows of headings. l'lainue-s of fabric, no loss than of fashion, is to be tho rule. New goods, different from any yet produced, will soon be shown, and new colors, or rather new shades, are eminent, The tints and double-distilled shades of last v-earweroso unheuorahugtq Americans that tlie div-goods houses are Import ing only novel hues, which, it is ex pected, "will satisfy tlie most exacting. ISct lhner's for (Vtnher. Los Angeles Daily Herald. Lavander Culture. Comparatively few personsarc aware to how large an extent the culture of lavender, for commercial purposes, is carried oil within a radius of thirty miles from London. In the county of Surrey alone tllCfe are nearly three hundred and fifty acres of land devo ted to its growth) and the total extent of the lavender fields In tin? London district cannot fall farshortof five hun dred acres. When three years old, the plant is at it! best; and when it reaches the age of seven years, ii has made so much wood that it is the most profitable lo uproot it and set a fresh plant. The harvest-time depends much oil the state of the weather, hut It usually commences about the lirst week in August. The flowers are cut with a sickle, bound up in small sheaves, aud immediately carried to the distillery. There tbe stalks are out otl - , leaving hut little more than the flowers, by which tlie hotiijuet of oil, afterwards extracted, is muCll im proved, though the quantity of the oil is sensibly diminished. Much care is needed on Ihe pari of those who han dle the sheaves hi the distilling house to guard against being stung by the bees which remain attached to the flower!. The temperance, industry, and providence of these insects are proverbial) yet their behavior in the lavender fields, especially towards the end of the season, when the flowers are fully developed, cannot be too se verely reprobated. So careless are they of the good reputation they have earned that they refuse to leave their luscious feast even when it is laid on the trimming bench, and hundreds are thrown into the still, nothwitlistutid ing the efforts to dislodge them, in a state of helpless intoxication. When the oil is lirst distilled, it lias a em* pyreinnatic odor, but by being kept in bottle! for twelve months it loses much of its harshness. It Is still, however, unlit to be used as a perfume in its natural state. Iv order to con vert the essential oil Into what is known as lavender-water, it Is mixed with from twenty to forty times its Dilik in spirit, and with just a trace of neroli, or other c ssential oil, according to the taste of the eoinpoumlcr.LHar per's Bazar.
