The CalilHrt iccrrnllj CoHidrfrred Uy llii' Kv-Scnator He Speaks r the 31cxibcrs IitdivIdHKllj MHt Collective!!, mulThlHk, the President Chose Wisely. National Republican. March lttb. Few men occup- more jiromi nent position in the fore front of the battle which reeulthed in the election of James A. Garfield to the presidency than ex-leator Steph en V. Dotse', or Arkansas. Mr Dorse y, as secretary of the Nation al republican committee, rendered services to the cause such as was rendered by few of the leaders of the party, and the party generally knows it. As the representative of the national committee in charge of the campaign in Indiana he. did more toward the triumph in October that led to the overwhelm ing victory of November than anj' other one man. In saying this we simply echo the opinion of the republicans of the country and particularly those of tle Iioosicr state. All of which is intended to be introductory to the statement that Mr. Dorse- has been credited with entertaining a degree of dissatis faction with the cabinet appoint ments of President Garfield amounting to almost mutiny. With a view of learning his true sentiments and recording the same, one of the representatives of this able paper sought Mr. Dorsey last night and said unto him: "What do 'Ou think of the new Cabinet?" "Collectively 1 think it a good cabinet," replied the ex-senator. "Let's take 'em individually," said the scribe. "What do you think cf Blaine?" "There is hardly a child in the country but could answer that Question. Mr. Blaine is one of two men who are nearer the hearts of the people than any other, and I therefore need say nothing in respect to him except that I think the appointment a great and ju dicious one." "You. were associated with Secretary Windom for many years n. the senate, and were, I am told, on the committee on appropria tions with him during your service as senator. What do you think of him?" "I served with Mr. Windom, and I know him as I knew other senator with whom I associated. I regard Mr. Windom as one of the strongest men in many re spects that 1 ever came m contact with. His record in the twenty two years he has served in con gress will compare favorably with that of any man during tjie same period. Mr. Windom is above all a level-headed and a wise man. He will grow upon the country every day that he holds the office, and I predict that within twelve months the business interests of the country will recognize the sa Eracitv of President Garfield in the selection of his secretary of the treasury. His character during his long public service is without stain or blot. I have never known a man, in all of the relations of public and private life, so abso lutely above reproach as William Windom. I think that the ap pointment is pre-eminently the wisest that could have been made." "What of"Hhe new secretary of the interior?" "I think Mr. Kirkwood just the man for the place. No selection could have been more appropriate. Mr. Kirkwood represents in -our politics more than any other man we have in public life the charac teristics of Abraham Lincoln. I can think of no man now who is closer to the hearts of the people, who Itave known him for the last quarter of a century, than he. From my knowledge of Iowa poli tics I venture the statement that Governor Kirkwood could not be beaten before the people f that stale lor any place he aspired to by any man in it, ami his appoint ment to the interior department will prove owe of the best ever made." "What of IJncoiar "1 don't know Mr. Lincoln, but, fiotn ail I hear of him, Iks w.ill make his mark in the politics of this country in the early future." "What of Hunt?" "Judge Hunt never saw, but I am told by those wlio know him well tliat he is one of the best law yers of the south, a man of the highest character, and in every way fitted for the position to which he has been appointed." "What do vou think of Wavne I MacYcagh? It is reported that some of you stalwarts doubt his orthodoxy as a republican?" "The impression' that Mr. Mac Ycagh is not a republican in the largest and best sense is entirely wrong. believe that he will make one of the ablest and strong est Attorneys-General we have ever had, and I believe as much as 1 can believe anything that he will occupy the forefront as a radical republican in respect to the en forcement of the election laws and the protection of the rights of citizens and voters in the southern states." "It is reported that you were one of the most active opponents of the appointment of Postmaster General James?" "Not being present, 1 had no power or voice in making cabinets. Whether I was for or against Mr. James would not have affected the result. I believe he will make one of the best Postmasters-General we have ever had. His long ex perience in the department and the unusual ability lie has shown in grasping and handling details is an evidence of his emiuent fitness for the place." "Taking it altogether, then, Mr. Dorsey," said our .scribe, in con clusion, "you think the cabinet a positively good one, individually and collectively?" "Yes, 1 do; and I am perfect ly confident that before twelve months have elapsed tiic intelli gence of the country will cordially indorse my opinion." A Paris telegratt of the 22(1 says: M. Zola contributes a long article on Hussia and Mte nihilists to the Paris Figaro. He ridicules the idea that it is possible to found a republic in Russia in the present state of Russian society. The 00,000,000 peasants, forming the greater part of the nation, are ignorant, isolated and wholly de voted to the czar. The popular element in the towns is powerless for revolution, and if the nihilists continue the policy of blood and violence we may some day witness a spectacle of infuriated peasantry, rushing blindly to the rescue of their "little father," bent on indis criminate slaughter. Mother Rus sia, says M. Zola, will probably be born of political and social facts borrowed from all the nations of Europe. It will be the work not of theorists, but of time and circum stances. 2Marvel not that 1 say unto you, ye must pay the printer. Whosoever neglecteth to pay the printer, hath not eternal life abiding in him. Who hath sorrow, who hath woe, who hath the nightmare! They who forget to render unto the printer his ju8t dues. If a man live many years and payeth not for The Astorian, behold he shall not die in peace till he hath re stored to the printer that which, he hath withheld. Boston's Aged Dead. Boston rW. During the year 1880 there were deceased in the city 330 persons who had attained the age of eighty years or more. Of these 211 were females and 125 males, an excess of eighty-six females, or a little more than sixty-five per cent of females to a little more than thirty seven cr cent of males. Two only of the- 330 liad passed beyond 100 years of age. Both were males Michael Barretc, aged 107, born in Ireland, who died August lGth. and Miles Donough, aged 101, Ikmh in Boston, who died July 26th. Tlie oldest female whose death is recorded is Margaret De laney, aged ninety-eight, horn in Ireland, v?w died December "22d. In regard to birthplace, 172 were born in the United States and 102 in foreigh countries. Of those of foreign birth, KW were born in Ireland, seven in England, five in Germany, three each in France, Holland and Nova Scotia, two in Scotland, and one each in Switzer land and Newfoundland. Chinese i in migration is begin ning to wear an tigly aspect to the easy-going Sandwich islanders. The coolies have brought in small pox, which is thinning out the natives; they are marrying the Kanaka women and raisinir a mon grel race which will furnish a problem to ethnologists; they arc getting possession ot the sugar plantations, and bid fair to soon control the trade in the one great staple of Ilawaii. The islanders arc said to lx growing restive under the Mongolian incubus, but the grip of the heathen is too firm to dislodge him now. A review of Chinese influence on the islands would furnish excellent reading for the eastern philanthropists who 3earn to see the Mongolian trans planted upon our soil and made a model citizen and a devout Chris tian.
