Williamsburg and Georgetown. W1

Dkad-Ska Apples.?The letter of President re
Hayes to Secretary Sherman, after having read,
the partial report qf the Hi
to cxamino the New York CustVmhoirse7%iande V
fairly enough ; but liko most of his letters and
speeches it contains qualifications and limitations an
which destroy much of its value. When he says 81.1
that "no officer should be required or permitted J1'
to take part in the management of political or- In
ganizutions, concusses, conventions or election ^
wpampaigns," and that "no assessments for po- l''
niticul purposes 011 officers or subordinates a*J
should be Allowed," the country goes with him. ^rl
Hut ho does not stop there. He adds that "the ^a
right" of the officors "to vote and to express their ^9
views on public questions, orally or through the
Press, is not denied, provided it does not intorfere
with the discharge of their official duties." W(
This is fatal to tho whole plan of reform.?
Stump-speaking and letters to the newspapers,
by which moans much of the election work is
doue, are not prohibited, uud practically the of- ^v<
ticers will be ablo to "electioneer" as nctively as 111
ever. Public officers have no business to make
speeches, or writo letters, in the interest of a
political party, if they are the servants of the Pr
public and not the creatures of a party. The
legion of Federal officials will not, therefore, be
K.utbei by the letter of the PreaUlaaV. It ci<
ts well; but there is scops enough in its term9 H

charge to the jury in the Kllcnten cases. The w
charge is long and elaborate, and explains care- us
k fully the law of the case, and what is necessary to
^ .under the law to a conviction upon the several
counts of tho indictment. The charge is able, el
dignified and fair. The jury then wont out to le
consider tho cases. This evening ihe JMIto- fii
man informed the court that the jury could bi
not agree, and Curtis, "colored," asked for D
a copy of tho Chief Justice's charge which n
was furnished to him. The court informed
the jury that if they agreed 011 a verdict thoy fj
could seal it up and go home ; otherwise they (I
must remain all night. It is rumored that tho fi

The Mexioans Border Troubles.
Wan Department, Washington, D. C , June
, 1877.? General: The report of W. M. Shatter,
ieutenant Colonel 24th Infantry, commanding
ie district of the Nneces, Texas, concerning the
:cent raids by Mexicans and Indians from Mexo
into Texas for Marauding purposes, with your
idorseiucnt of.thc 20th ultitno, has been subilted
to the President, and has, together with ,
atucrous other reports and documents relating
the same subject, been duly considered. Th$ ,
resident desires that tho . utmost vigilance on <
ic part of the military forces in Texas'be exer- ,
sed for the s.ifpprcssion of 'these raids.* It is ]
>ry desirable that efforts to this end, in so far ,
least as they necessarily involve operations on
>th sides of tho border, be made with, the co>c
rat ion of the Mexican authorities ; and you.
ill instruct General Ord, commanding in Texas,
invite such co-operation on the part of the
cal Mexican authorities, and to inform them
at while the President is anxious to avoid givg
offense to Mexico, he is nevertheless conviuid
that the invasion of our territory by armed
id organized bodies of thieves and robbcm to (
cy upon our citizens should not be longer en- I
ired. General Ord will at once notify the
exican authorities nlong the Texas border of
c great desire of the l'residcnt to unite with
em in efforts to suppress this long-continued ,
wlcssncss. At the same time, lie will inform
030 authorities that if the government of Mex- '
o shall continue to neglect the duty of suppressg
these outrages, that duty will devolve upon :
is government, und will be performed even if
! performance should render necessary the oc- j
sioual crossing of the border by our troops.-a- (
ju wi'l, therefore, dircut General Ord that in
se the lawless incursions continue, he will be
liberty, in the use of his own discretion, when
pursuit of a band of the marauders, and when
s troops arc either in sight of them or upon a
csli trail, to follow them across the llio Grande
id punish them, as well as retake stolen
opcrty taken from our citizens and found in
cir hands on the Mexicau side of the line. 1
ivc the honor to be, very respectfully,

Secretary of War.

A Shocking Affair.?Hoover's, S. C , May
i.--Our quiet little village was aroused, on !
turday night last, by the perpetration of one <
the most dastardly outrages ever committed <
this community. A peaceable, quiet and
nest citizen, (Mr. J. E. Mtman,) a man six-five
years of age, resided at this place. His
fe only a few days ago was called to k "better
me." After a hard day's work, us usual, he
tired to his humble couch. In a short time
tcr lying down n pistol was fired into his house. '
sprang.for his gun, when one of the
sM?nu1[wbeni, by the way, he caught steal- ^
g one of his bee-hives,) forced his door open,
d succeeded in securing the old gentleman s '
in and ran out of the house with it. lie placed
mself in tho door, and pistols commenced fir- '
g through the open door. One ball passed
rough his left thigh', and "ode took effect on 1
e prominent part of the right leg and just
>ove the ankle. Fortunately the bone wus not
setured, but it caused the ball to glance. One
,11 was found in the opposite side wall, No. 22K)
calibre. Shooting at random, as tho parly
d, it is a wonder that Mr. Altmun wus not inintly
killed. As well as he could see, thcro
Bre three or four young white men in the parWhat
induced these youngsters to commit 1
is atrocious outrage no one can tell, unless the 1
e-hivo had "something to do with it. The 1
Blinds are not thought at all dangerous, and
a short time he will' be able to pursue his
lily avocations. * 1
It is to be hoped that these young men will bo 1
operly dealt with at the hands of the law. 1

The Vacant Juihikshif.?The Senate Juditry

concurrent resolution whifch declares vant
the office of Judge in the Fifth Circuit.?
le report states that the committee had enrelly
considered the matter, and found that the
cts stated in the resolution were true, andrecnmended
the passage of the House resolution,
ith an amendment to include the Kighth Circuit,
i they fouudthe same fac:s existed in relation
i that circuit.
The ground of this report is based upon an
abornte opinion from the Attorney General, the
gal position of which is that the terms of of
:o of Carpenter and Cooke expired in Dccotner,
1870, and that they were elected anew in
ecembcr, 1875, nt a time when there existed
0 vacancy in either circuit.
The facts in regard to Judge Carpenter are
imiliar to our renders, as the Register brought
lis matter to the atlcnion of the public in the
rst instance. Judge Cooke wns elected in Janary,
1873, jf we are not mistaken, to fill the
nexpircd term of the late Judge Orr, who reigned
to accept the mission to Russia. A term
f four years would cause Judge Cooke to go out
f office in January, 1877. But it is asserted
!>&( prior to his re election iu December. 1875,
udge Cooke resigned the officeof Circuit Judge,
nd under his new election accepted a commission
lr four years from that date. This is a correct
(element of the facts, we believe, and if a new
lection is ordered for the Kigl.th Circuit, it will
crtuitily involve the necessity of final udjudintion
by the Supreme Court.?C?I.
