When a majority; of his own party have favored what he disapproved, he bas interposed his veto. He has performed his duty faithfully, and neither by public utterance nor through the columns of the press has he thrust himself or his views upon the people, i That he has made mistakes there is nq doubt, but they have not been numerous. nor such as are likely to entail serious ill upon the republic.

I "it ii 1 I1 KewTork World. i The announcement has just been made of tbe death in a London prison of Dan Noble; a noted- In this city and throughout too In the death of Noble the -criminal profession has lost one of Its shrewdest operators and his death winds lip the old school of criminals who have either been obliterated by death or Imprisons ment. T.I Noble at tbe time of bis decease was onlv fortys-five years old, but bis criminal career dated back years before he had reached bis majority. When he entered upon a life of crime as a pickpocket he was a regular habitue of Bill Butler's! dive, known as tho Chelsea on the corner of Twentv-' fiflh street and Ninth avenue.

lbs same Butler received S3.000 manv years ago from a bank president whose institution was robbed, ithe understanding being that Butler should' pay the thieves for the booty, Butler, ihoweveri deft the city for England, leaving the thieves to sue for their portion. ''I'lj ij-j- j- UTAK8 OF- CKIMK. -I Ull-': Dan Noble started from a nlcknocket. irrad. uated into a bank sneak, aud suddenly was brought into prominence by seizin? S100.000 in bonds from the lioyal insurance company's office on Broadway.

Noble was a natural Thomrb: he associated the most noted craksmen." he never was one himself. His brother-in-law, Tommy "Thompson, a well-known English burglar, who died a maniac recenl.lv on Blackwell's Island, could never induce Noble to join in this branch of crime, Maria Thompson, Ills sister-in-law, was a shop-lifter, as was also his wife, Hettle. i When plying his vocation Noble worked with what is called the "mob," which conr sis ted of three the "wire," which ii the1 pickpocket; tbe "stall," who would detract a man or' woman's attention while the wire's'' fingers were in the pocket, and the' coverer," who nlai-ed himself in-Dosltion so that tbe movements of the wire could not be observed. Noble always acted as the "Wire." V. 'i-r i-ii Noble had a run of good luck iri this citvi and evaded arrest until bis insurance robbery.

Nohlo was on tejruis of great intimacy With rami ji-orter, tne notorious cracksman 1 who lieccntly died in the Kiusrs Countv Peni-ii tentiary. Before his death he left Father' Mahoney, it is believed, certain confessions of bis: past life which would form the basis of a very interesting story of criminal life.

Porter" taught and coached Noble. Porter be longed to an excellent Southern family and his piTsou name was an assumed one. He was the moving spirit of a gang of the most noted criminals in this or any other city, of which onaug uraper was a snitung light. The en tire gang were arrested in an elegantly-fur-j mtiietj uuuse iu Drooitivn a lew- years -ago, and tbe evidence against tbcm was sufficient to senu tnenj au to prison. 1 One day a prisoner named Joyce, nearly dead from the loss of blood, was being carried into tbe hospital.

He was a harmless, good-natured fellow who was jubilant at the pros- jKcmi uii- n) compiutiuu ox is term tie while working In the shoe shop.

He picked up a knife which he used for euttinir leather and said to Joyce: If you don't shut up I'll rnakeyou." l'.

THE ri.ASHIXd tfTKKf There was a flash of the knife, a crv of alarm- from the unfortunate Joyce, and it was then seen that bis cbeekB had been opened to his teeth on a line with his mouth, almost fioin ear to ear. Porter simnlv folded his arms and quuietlv accompanied the keener to tbe cell building, wbere he endured an unusually long term of imprisonment with out a murmur. 1 uere are many other stories toiu oi nis unprovoKea oarbaritv.

London Dally Kews, I Much interesting information, soma of which recalls the stirring incidents of the siege of Paris, is given by M. Steenachers, a friend of M. Gambetta, In a sketch which he has written Of the work done by the French postomce during tbe war with Germany. M. bteenacjiers was appointed director of the posiomce uy me government of the national defence, and it fell within his province, after the Investment of Paris hv thn lmnni to organise tbe despaU-h of balloons with letters for the inhabitants of the departments.

M. bieenachers describes at some length the way in which this service was started, and be states that the cars in manv cases carried as much aa half a ton of letters, to say nothing of two or three passengers and the aeronaut himself. The first ha. loon left nn th 23d of September and (he last oh the 2xth of January, anu uunng the interval of four mouthssixtr-nve balloons, enrrvinir 11U ---1 iiKcoos, nve uogs, ami ten tons 01 reiwnsou newspapers, left the Invested city. Seven of tbese were nntnml tha nsmo and two have never since been heard of.

Steen- acners describes also tbe unsuccessful efforts made to use well-traiued sheep-dogs, blch were taken out of Paris in balloons as messengers for bringing letters into the besieged city. Hollow collars- were placed around their necks and hlled with letters, but none of the dogs ever got back into Paris. Out of the 3S1 pigeons started from tbe departments, all but sixty-one reached their destination. anu one ot them made the vovage no fewer than four times. Stecnacbers describes lu some detail the efforts made to teer bal loons, anu it is no surprise to read that all of tnese were unsuccessful.

It is a significant fact that the stronger letters come from men who are out of the stream of olitics, and who openly expressed their fear and distrust when the Vice-President was called ujion to take the President's Take, for instance, the following plain words from the distinguished writer and 'editor, Mr. -Charles Dudley Warner: I There fs no doubt i that he has' steadily rison tn public esteem ever since he became President, and .110 man was ever placed in more embarrnssing circumstances than he when he took tbe oath.

The exccnlive has had the right every four years to pass upon the fit ness of such officers or to put new men i in their places for, political reasons if 1 It seemed for the interest of -the party to which, lie belonged, and not injurious to the public service. By the, provisions of the Pendleton bill the bulk of the subor dinate omcials in the civil-service are se cured in office, virtually, though not ex plicitly, during good behavior. We do not believe the people of this couutry can be brought to apprtfve Mr.

Curtis's idea of repealing the reasonable law which limits tho tenure of the higher officers to terms of four years. Unlimited tenure is not desirable lu offices like post masterships and collectorships. We believe such officers are more attentive to their duties, more efficient and more courteous to the public under ji limited tenure than they would be under a commission that could only be taken from them after the establishment of formal iWrges of misbehavior or criminal delinquency. The Vtica Herald iu discussing this subject says: "Everywhere, among tb class of officers alludecFto, there is a limited tenure. So far as we know, there is not an elective officer in any state in the union; no matter how humble his functions, whose tenure is not limited.

From the Governordown to the poundmaster, the people retain their right to pass judgment at stated periods, and the effect on the whole Is a wholesome one." The same right has been lodged in the hands of the federal representative of the people; aud, although the repeal of the four-year law might relieve the executive of many burdensome cares and perplexities, it Is more than doubtful if the people are williug to divesf themselves through their representative of the right of period ical review and control of this class of'J omcials.

In the first iplaeo who Is- JudgH Birdsallr I.ct hliu il have been a democrat all my life, I made my first political speech for Franklin Fierce In ltU3 before I was eligible to vote; that since tbnt time I have spoken under the auspices of both national and state demo cratic committees through every presidential canvass and in eleven states of tbe Union. The San has upon frequent occasions seen lit uot only to commend, but to eulogize my utterances. I have had the honor of being a member of two.

national conventions aud have had tbe pleasure of tbe acquaintance and personal friendship of most of the prominent leaders of my party for the past quarter -of a century. Those of tjiem who are living will hot doubt the truth of what I have said or the sincerity of my mo tives. iKven Mr. Tllden himself wilt not, for he will not fall to remeyiber tbat on the 13th day of October, 1874 wben he Was a candi date for governor of New York-wohn Mc-Keon, then as now, one of the' ablest and most honored members of the New York bar, and now the district-attorney of New York, published a letter over his own signature more than two columns in length in tbe New York Herald, giving numerous reasons why Mr. Tilden should not eeelve democratic support.

On 'that day 1 was Visited by three members of the democratic state central committee who. were Mr. Tllden's friends one of u. horn was the gentleman who gave me the information of Mr. Tilden' treachery to General Hancock and the democratic party on October 27, 18.S0, which was published in my interview who requested me In the name of Mr.

Tllden to prepare a reply to Mr. McKeon's charges against him, which I agreed to do with the understanding that it should not be published until after it was read and approved by Mr. Tilden. Mr. Tllden will not forget that on the following day I Iook sucn reply to bis bouse in Gramer- ey Park, where he read It in the presence of two of those gentlemen and myself, approved of it fully, saying that it was an exhaustive reply; that I left tbe letter with, bim aud those gentlemen, and tbat it appeared ln.two columns of the ATcw Port Herald on October 23, 1874, over ray signature." This appears to be a very satisfactory identification.
