Washington, Haieh 31.— Oardiaer C.
Bid>terd. of Slwaacbuaetts, one of the tbree
Sommlssionen app6iiited to examine into tbe
ttmnspoitation of nuils 1>7 railroaa eompuiits,
has prepared a report wliieb will be presented
lo Congress to-morrow. The other two mem-
oers of the eommission, Daniel M. Fox, of Penn-
■TlTimia, and George A. Bassett, of New-.
fork, make a separate report This com-
mission was appointed August, 1876, and
aave -visited all parts of the country
to learn bj oarefol observations the
practical operation of the Bailway Mail Service.
They have taken the testimony of railroad of&-
elals lepresentiag all classes of roads, the small-
est as wbQ as the largest, and have obtained re-
turns showing exDenses and receipts of roads
loibg nearly three quarters of the entire rail-
way bnsine.«s of the country. Mr. Hubbard's
report is a very exhaustive document, givins a
comprehensive history of the Bailway
Btail Service, the actual cost of trans-
porting the mails, the amount of com-
pensation paid thfe railroad companies
by the Government, and a mass of statistical
information upon the general subject that will'
be of great value to the Post Office Depart-
ment. Speaking of the Postal Car Service,
Mr. Hubbard says : " It would be imnossible to
carry on the business of the country without
postal cars. On an average night trip between
New-York and Boston, about 550 distributions
of letter mail are made. On the New-
Tork and Ptttsbiirg Bailway Post Of&ce,
14,0 separations of newspapers and 60O of letter
mail are daily made. On the day line
of the Missouri,; Paciflc Bailway, between
St. Louis and Kith»b City, the ' distribu-
tion for a single trip west has reached 600 paek-
sges of letters, and 252 sacks of paper maiL
There are sent daily 3,794 bags and pouches of
mall matter ftom theNew-Tork PostOfSceto
ftvery town and ham'etin the country; about
700 bags and pouches of there are sent on the
6 P. M. man by the Pennsylvania Bailroad, and
ijearly three-fourths of the whole mail by
trains leaving for the South and West at 6
and 8 o'clock P. M., and for the East at 9
P. M. Tko noaUs must be made up and leave the
office an hour before th* departure of the train.
The aznonnt of mail matter is so great that it
would be impossible to distribute it within the
time allowed by law without greatly increasing
the foree and space in the Post Offices of oar
large dties ; but when tbey are distributed in
trandt, those for more distant States need net
be aaaorted until the second or third day, thna
gaining from 2^ te 48 hours in the distribution. "
Mr. Hubbard says this service should be ex-
tended to all railways.
Some interesting facts are given in the pases
devoted to the Fast Mall Service. During the
10 months the fast mail was in operation it
failed only three times to arrive in Chicago
from New-York en schedule time, but never
mtrr-^ the Westsm connection. The clerks on
tkeee ears distributed eseh day over 500,000
Ittters and paper*. Hr. Hubbard says of the
utility of the fast mail it would not seem thatthe
difference of time between the mails which left
New-Terk at 8:30 P. M. and 4:15 A. M. could
have been of great importance, but the testi-
mony of business men, newspaper dealers.
Postmasters, Railway Mail Superintendents and
derks, is strong and nearly unanimoiis in favor
of its great value, and the commission were
surprised at the almost universal desire for its
le-establishment. The smaller cities and places
west of the MissisBippi and south of the Ohio,
where there was only one daily mail, suffered
much more from its withdrawal than New-
York, Cleveland, or Chleaso. All the westward
boond mail, wliteh amounted to 80 per cent, of
the whuia mail arriving at Chicago, was trans-
ferred direet to the postal cars for places be-
yond.

mail A merebant at Denver testified that he
oouM effoni to pay $1,000 a year for its
restoration. At Cincinnati, however, several
merebaste conaldeTed this mail, which arrived
there to tbe evening, too lato for delivery,
a poeitlve injury to the dty. In several other
cities a few were doubtful as to its advantages.
Tljese witnesMS believed that if the mail had
leftNew-Tork in the evening it would have
been a pnbUe benefit, and all agreed that a
morning and an evening mail between the East
and the West was of the utmost importance.
The time saved by these mails in the trans-
nilssjon of correspondence between the Sonth-
westere, Western, and North-westom States,
and the Eastern cities was over 24 hours, mak-
ing the difference of one day's interest on all
Extern remittances. IntolUgont business men
jjj Galveston estimatod the amount of
exchangee between that dty and New York
at $50,000,000. In Houston it was
nlaced at $33,000,000 ; Little Boci, $50,000,-
OOO^Nsshville, $75,000,000; Denver, $i!0,-
000000- San Francisco, $150,000,000;
Toledo, $360,000,000; Chicago, $600,000,-

,„,^g tbe average rate of interest to
K<> 7 ner cent., would amount to nearly
^00.000. and if we assume $600,000
L the entire auiount of Interest annually saved.
It would be a low estimate. Many merchants
^jjn,tedtbe benefltithey received from the
diortening of time between the sending and
filltog of orders ior goods «. greater even than

"Washington, Msroh 31.— The canons
yesterday afternoon attracts attention to-day
chiefly because nobody can find out exactly what
was said or done. An . unusual degree of
secrecy is observed, though the points
of the meeting have been sufficiently dis-
closed to show itj purpose and result
It has been developed in the last few
weeks that not only is the Senate drifting fur-
ther away from the President, but the cohei^
ency of the Bepublican part of the body is also
threatened, not with any sudden rupture, but
with a gradual severance of the parts. One class
of Senators applaud Mr. Howe's speech, and
seem to'approveitas being wise politically, while
another look upon it as exceedingly injurious in
ite effects upon tbe prospective success of the
party, and deprecate any repetition of similar
attacks. In other words, a portion of the
Senate regard the speech as prudent
and satisfactory, and another portion look
upon it as leading in the direction of disaster.
Now, the undoubted object of the caucus was,
in the first instance, to obtain a better under-
standing between these two classes of Senators,
and it was further designed and hoped
that measures mieht be ta^en look-
ing to political co-operation with the
President The class of Seoators who applaud
Mr. Howe's speech are accused of the desire to
get rid of the President altogether as a factor
in tbe Republican Partv. Connected with the
Other influences which affect the situation is
the expiration of the terms of several Senators
on the 4th of next March. These Senators
have a far greater interest in tbe immediate
situation of politics than those who have yet
two or four years* service before them.
So far as securing any understending or ar-
riving at any result the caucus was a failure,
being thinly attended, and the class of Senators
from whom incendiary speeches are feared
being generaRr absent The caucus lasted but
an hour. It is certain that nothing occurred
to discourage the hope of esteblishing a policy
for the united action of the Republicans
in the Senate, though the men who
are most extreme against the President seem
rather pleased that nothing was accomplished.
It is not at all likely that any Senator will at-
tempt Mr. Howe's rdle for weeks or months to
come, but it seems decidedly important that the
spirit should be checked which leads in the di-
rection o£ a division among BepubUcans in
the Senate and in Congresa. If any considera-
ble number of Senators determine that the
President mtist in some manner be gotten oot
of the partv, it will be necessary for them to se-
cure the co-operation of tbe entire strength of
the Bepnblicans in that body, else they will
find the undertaking tedious and unfruitful.
There is a large number of Senators, and they
are the ablest in the body, who are not yet
ready to abandon tbe hope for ultimate tmion
of action politically between the President and
the party.
PACIFIC BAILWAT LEGISLATIOy.
TBE BILL TO COXFEL TBE UNION AND CCN-
TBAL PACIFIC TO ADOPT PRO RATA
CHARGES WITH OTHER ROADS— STRENGTH
OF THE BILL IN BOTH HOUSES— THE
SINKING FUND QUESTION.
Sj:tciaXDiMiiaich to the New-Tort ZTnKa
■Washington, March 31.— The bill agreed
upon by the House Bailroad Committee yester-
day, known as the Pro Rata bill, seems to have
even more strength than appeared some weeks
ago, when it was stated in these dispatehes that
it would be the strongest of all the railroad
measures. In addition to the members who be-
lieve in the bill on ite own account there will
bo found to vote for it a large number of
the supporters of the Texas-Pacific subsidr. Mr.
Scott favors the Pro rata bill, and the Senate
Judiciary Comn^ttee bill, and every other bill
which will injure or annoy Huntington and Jay
Gould. Tbe present indications are that the
Pro rata bill will eertainly pass the House,
and it will undoubtedly have a similar
support in the Senate, though progress
through that body is more difficult
and it may be that final action will
,be defeated. The bill is not regarded as unrea-
sonable in its terms. It simply provides a
peremntory method of enforcing the laws under
which these subsidy roads are operated. When
litigation is necessary the roads, and not the
Government, have the burden of beeinning it.
The proposition to appoint the Commis-
sioners in the bill will probably fail.
The Senate is not likely to agree to
any such proposition, though if three names
universally sccepable should be proposed it
would seem to be the most direet way of secur-
ing a good board. This proposition need not
put the passage of the bill in jeopardy, how-
ever, since, if the House agrees to it and the
Senate does not, it can be settled by a
committee of conference. In connection
with the naming of the Commissioners.
Mr. Hewitt is said to have exploded
in a characteristic manner and charged
point blank that Jay Gould had influence with
the President, and Hewitt would prove it if ne-
cessary on the floor of the House. It is not
quite clear whether this is stating Mr. Hewitt's
words too strongly, but such is the version
given. Mr. Hewitt sometimes has less informa-
tion than he supposes. Such was nota-
bly the case during the Emma Mine
investigation, when he solemnly inform-
ed the Committee on Foreign Affairs
that unless they censured Minister Schenck in
direet terms he would be sent back to London,
and this Mr. Hewitt affirmed he knew from offi-
cial information. There really seems to be no
objection to appointing the Commissioners in
the bill, however, provided it is constitutional,
' and a good commission can be secured in that
manner.
The railroad discussion comes up regularly in
the Senate to-morrow, and Mr. Blaine, accord-
ing to tbe Beeord, has the floor for a speech.
He is not likely to occupy a great deal of time,
but it is said he will speak for the Bailroad
Committee's bill It would not be strange, how-
ever, if he appeared again as a compromiser,
and advocated a middle oourse between the two
extremes. His position wlU be retarded with a
good deal of Interest

There was hot much activity yesterday In the
way of investigations by the Bonse (Committees.
The way in which mail contracts are let, especially
in the Western States, had some further light
thrown upon it by testimony tkken before the
Post Office Committee. The operations of the
Navy Department were looked into by the Committee
on Naval Affairs, which had before it the surviving
members ot the late firm of Wood & Dialogue: of
Ptiiladelphia, in connection particularly with the
charter and purchase of the aleam-bost Burlington
by Secretory Robeson. The Committee on Public
iJands heard statements on the subject of land sur-
veys in the Western States and Territories. None
of the proceedings possessed much public interest.
At the beginning of the present Congress
there were 17 contested election cases to be decided

POCQBKEEPSIE, March 31.— The shooting af-
fair at Pine Plains yesterday has caused much ex-
citement there. The wounded man. Edward Thomp-
son, is a farmer 72 reara old. Col. Fraleigh sold 3fr.
Thompson's farm, and had advertised to auc-
tion the stock off* last Saturday after-
noon. Visiting tbe farm in the morning
with Constable H. C. Smith, he found the road lead-
ing to the house cut off by a fence. Mr. Thompson
met him at the fence, and words ensued, when the
farmer knocked Fralelch down with a stick, and also
struck the officer. The latter drew a revolver and
fired, the ball striking Thompson in the breast and
glancing upward lodged near the neeX. Mr. Thomp-
son's son advanced to strike the officer with a club,
when the latter pointed tbe revolver at him, and,
Thompson says, fired it, but tfae young man was sot
bit Afterward Mr. Thompson's son and tbe
officer were both arrested on counter ehaigss
of intent to kilL CoL Fraleigh was badly beaten,
and is confined to bis bed. 'The elder Thompson is
in a critical condition, the ball having not yet been
extracted. The fight was over the Thompson borne-
stead, on which Fraleigh held mortgages and had
sold the property. Ur. Thompson claims he was
readr to aettle, but Fraleigh wouldn't sign the deed.

London, April 1. — The Standards corre-
spondent at Berlin says in consequence of Aus-
tria's refusal to come to an arrangement with
Bussla, it is believed that Prince Oortschakoff
has already informed Lord Loftus that Bnssia
is ready to yield to Hngland's demand in regard
to the congress.
. A special to the /Standard, dated Constantino-
ple, Friday, states that if the English fleet is not
withdrawn, the Russians will occupy Constanti-
nople, with tbe approval of tbe Sultan.
The same correspondent understands that
Mr. Layard, in accordance with the Instructions
of the British Government, has asked the Porte
what its attitude will be . in the event of an An-
glo-Russian war. Saf vet Pasha replied that he
was personally inclined to neutrality, but he
would submit the matter to the council.
The Standard's correspondent at Constanti-
nople, telegraphing on Saturday, says: "I
hear on the very best authority that the Sultan
told tbe Grand Duke Kicbolas that he would
not fight against England. The Russians will
occupy Buyukdere on Monday. The English
have landed a large quantity of war material on
tbe Island of Tenedos."
Tbe Standard's report from Berlin that Rus-
sia is ready to yield to England's demand
should be received with reserve, as both the
Agence JZtMse and Journal de St, I'etvrshourg yes-
terday opposed further concessions on
the part of Russia. Moreover, the corre-
spondent of the Times at St Petersbtirg
telegraphs on Stmday as follows : " War is now
regarded as almost inevitable. The vague hope
that a diplomatic formula might be found for
the renewal of negotiations has been destroyed
by Lord Beaconsfield's declaration that the ques-
tion at issue is not a matter of form, but one of
essential reality."
The other dispatehes of the Standard given
above should be received with due caution, on
account of their sensational character.
A special dispatch to the Daily Ifetcs from St
Petersburg says despite the general excitement
a' few men in high positions advocate
a final attempt at conciliation by the
simultaneous withdrawal of the British fleet
and the Russian Army from the neighborhood
of Constantinople, pending arbitration by a
neutral sovereign.
The Daily Ttlegrapli positively asserte that the
Marquis of Salisbury will succeed Lord Derby
aa Secretary of Foreign Affairs.

The Bucharest correspondent of the Times

have been ordered by their owners to sail im-

Paris, March 31. — A special to the Patrie
from Vienna says a rumor is current there that
the immediate mobilization of 400,000 men on
the Bosnian frontiers has been ordered.
The Tempt^ Vienna dispatch reports that in
consequence of a demonstration in the Hunga-

London, April 1. — The Txme9^ special from
Berlin states that Busaia has infonued Austria
that she would observe a friendly neutrality if
Austria seized tne western provinces of Tur^
key. Austria is not likely to accept the offer.
The Vienna dispatch of the Daily Telegraph
says Count Andrassy is making fresh efforts to
bring about the meeting of the congress, and
^inka Russia will eventually yield to England's
demand. Count Andrassy informed Gen.I^intieff
that the whole tendency of the treaty was in op-
position to the interests of Europe, and that no
lastingpeace could be concluded withoutthe sanc-

that Russia hod altogether abandoned the
idea of a eonKress In consequence of the
diffleultieB raised by England. He m^eed
Count Andrassy to state Austria's demand.
The Count declined, as he . still hopdd
for a congress, but declared thiat if he haS to
consider the treaty solely from an Austrian
point of view, he- would demand for greater
concessions than if ha had to consider it In re-

A MISSING CIVIL ENOINEES,
Inspector Dllks, while on duty at the Central
OC&ce at a late hour last night, was waited on by
two gentlemen who had come in search of Mr. Boyd
Sliot, a civil englneez; of No. 917 SrotAwnf, who
iz »t<»«i^, and wbo«* absence has caused his
friends great nneaainess. Mr. Eliot, who is
interested in a number of patent rights, trad been in
Philadelphia, where he appeared as a witness in a
suit pending In the courts there. On Friday he
telegraphed to hU friends in this City that he would
leave Philadelphia on the train due here at 2:15 P. M.
He did not arrive by thjtt train, but his friends
received a telegram from Mr- Eliot informing them
that he had concluded to remain over for the next
train. This is the last that Mr. iiUiot's friends have
heard from him. As he did not arrive home on Friday
night they became alarmed for his wifety, and caused
inquiries to be made in Philad^phia. These in-
quiries resulted in the discovery that Mr. Eliot was
seen at the depot just previous to the starting of the
train, but neither the conductor of the, tmia nor of
the palace car attached thereto could remember
any person of Mr. Elliot's description among
the passengers. It is therefore surmised that he
did not leave Philadelphia. The missing gentleman
is subject to sudden tits of sickness, and it is feared
that be has been stricken down in Philadelphia or
on his arrival here, if bo camC to this City.
Inspector Bilks ordered a general alarm to be
sent out to all the Police stations, directing the
i'olice to search the hotels for the missing irentle-
man. Mr Eliot is about UO years of age. is six fe«t
tall, and han gray mustache and side whiskers. He
was attired in a full suit of black, and wore a black
overcoat and black silk hat. Be had two valises
with him. one black and the other red. which con-
tained among other thinf^ some very important
papers. -
THE SILTER SUPPLY AyD ITS COST.
San Fbancisco, March 30. — Regarding Sec-
retary Sherman's statement that the silver owners of
the Pacific Coast have made a comer in that com-
modity and put tbe prico of bullion nptqa figure
higher than that at which they were previously will-
ing to sell for shipment \o Asia, even with freight
excluded, the Nevada Bank authorities say Ruch is
not a proper stotement of "the cRse. Tbey hold they
are, as a matter of buRiness, entitled to whatever
profit would fall to them by their nearness to the
market. In offering silver for coinage at the San
Francisco Mint, they estimate whatit,\vill cost the
Government to buy silver in London and land it
here, and resuJate their prices accordingly.
BILLIARDS BETWEEN SCHAEFER AND
SEXTON.
St. Louis, March 31. — A telegram has been
received here from John D. O'Connor, stating that
he will back Sexton against Schaefer for a gome of
billiards to be played in New- York for $2,500 a side,
2,000 points up. Schaefer says he cannot ohtain
backers in New-York, but will play Sexton iu St.
Louis for the amount mentioned, and allow him
$500 for expenses.
A LOAG SEARCH F^R A MJSSIXG MAX.
Springfield, Mass., March 31. — The body of
John 'Weeks, of New-Salem, who has been missing
nearly tbree weeks, was found to-day in Wendell,
about a mile from the house whoro be was last seen.
On the night of his disappearance be was intoxicated,
and probably froze to death. The people of sur-
roundiuz towns have been searching for him con-
stantly since his disappearance. Over 100 were out
to-day. _

JVom Our Own Cormgtonaer,JL *
LoxDos, Thuisday. March 21, 1878.
From » pleasant London drawing-room
Into the streets at midnight ; from the West
End to the North ; from St. John's Wood to Is-
linf^on ; the journey was not tempting at mid-
night and on a Sunday. Bat 1 had a companion
in Mr. Franc B. Wilkie, of a Chicago newspa-
per, and our destination was the Aericultural
Hall, to see the opening of • ' the great pedestrian
match " in which Daniel O'Leary, an American
citizen, was to compete in one of the most re-
markable contests of modem days. Shortly
after midnight I was introduced to Mr. O'Leary
and Mrs. O'Leary at their lodgings, not far
from the scene of the nedestrian enconijter.
O'Leary, a well-huilt though slight young man,
over the middle height, wearing a mustache
and with the forehead rather of a poet than a
mere " walker," received us with a genial
American welcome. Mrs. O'Leary gave ns some
tea and toast, and we chatted with her husband
about his early life. He was originally a poBt-
man and a book-canvaseer in Chicago, and his
first pedestrian feats were performed in collect-
ing the debts owing to him for a Bible which he
sold in 'parts. He had tried to keep up a certa n
amount of walking on board tbe steamer as ha
came over, but the weather had been too rough
to permit of his doing much, I felt the muscles
of his legs. They seemed to be flabby for limbs
that had done so much work. But he expressed
himself satisfied with his condition, and, now
that tbe time was drawing near, he longed to be
on the track and at work.
*'I think," he said, looking down at his feet,
*' there are about 550 miles in these boots be-
tween now and the end of the week."
/ At a few minutes to 1 o'clock we entered the
Agricultural Hall together. Only the press and
a few friends of Sir John D. Astley were invited
to be present, in addition to the trainers and
servants of the competitors. The vast building,
lighted by only two or three chandeliers, looked
anything but festive. Two tracks marked the
oval space in the great building, one for Eng-
lishmen said 'one for foreigners. Groups of men
filled the inclosure in the middle, around which
the tracks were laid down. Clerks were busy
at the judges' stand. The great wide space of
benches, set apart for spectators,, looked chill
and dirty. The light of a charcoal fire in a
brazier fell mysteriously upon the small en--
campment of the pedestrians near the entrance
doors. One tent stood alone near the foreigners'
track. Among the groups of lookers-on the
soft hats of Transatlantic visitors were con-
spicuous. Several gentlemen from the United
States were regretting that Weston had
withdra-wn from the competition. "Guess
O'Leary made him ill," said one of
his countrymen, and th» medical cer-
tificate which he hiid sent in to justify his with-
drawal w(k8 evidently regarded .as " too^thin."
Presently the clock struck an hour after mid-
night, the scorers were in their places, the
judges in theirs. The competitors were called
in front of the starting-place, where Sir John
D. Ashley, a typical English nobleman, broad
of chest, stalwart of limb, addressed the pedes-
trians.
*• You are about to enter on a trying match,*'
he said, " in which running and walking and
physical pluck and endurance are to compete.
Every possible arrangement has been made to
have a fair, straight fight, and I hope the best
man will win. I appeal to you to second our
efforts, for the best man, no matter what his
nationality or where he comes from, shall win.
It has been objected to formally by one walker,
the a^lmission of O'Leary so late in the day ;
but he has come 3,000 miles over the sea, I
don't consider he is unfairly admitted, and if he
■wins he shall have the prize [hear,
hear.] and I'll fight tbe man at
law for the money if he persists in his objec-
tion. [Cheers.] O'Leary having atrack to him-
self baa a Uttle pull, but it does away with the
chance of his not having the most perfect fair-
play. His tent being right on the track is con-
sidered to bo an advantage, so we have
measured the distance from the other tents, the
average distance, and he has to walk 24 yards
hack to the track whenever he leaves it ; that I
think you will regard a.s fair. [Hear, hear.] And
now lads are you ready ? [* All right. Sir
.John,' said several voices.] A fair, honest,
manly race, and the best man wins. Ready?
Then away you go." And so the great walUng
match began.
It was a strange sight aa they settled down to
their work, the 18 men, in their varied cos-
tumes, some walking steadily, some trotting,
some running, some in groups, other individuals
alone. Two carried short sticks; W. H. Smythe
was dressed in blue serge, and, like O'Leary,
he walked bareheaded. This competitor had
fought hard for the right of walking on the
foreigners' track, but it was proved that he was
an Ecglish subject. Mr. Martyn was rather
foppishly dressed. He is an amateur, and was
waited upon by his o-wn man servant in a
"white choker." As the men went round and
round something like the school of herrings in
the Brifrhton Aquarium, round and round, in
groups, in twos and threes, in ones and twos,
in threes and fours, round and round and lomid
until one began to get giddy with wateMng
them, 1 noted their peculiarities. Mr. Corkey,
of London, struck me as the weakest man
physically in the arena for a long, tedtona,
straining journey. Between 40 and 50 years
of age, small in stature, his shoulder blades
prominent tbrouEh Ms jersey, lie had
a stooping and an awkward gait. He ran — ^it
was a trot— and he ran ungraeefnllT and with a
sad look in his pale face. I thought if I had
been a very rich man Iwould like to have given
him that £oOO and eent him home to his family,
without letting him run the risk of killing him-
self. Another runner was L Smith, a short,
compact man, with a goatee beard. He ran like
a bloodhound. As the other men and groups
revolved, he was a sort of outer force, passing
and repassing with a marv^ous regularity.
Harry Vaughan, of Chester,, a fine, stalwart
youngfellow, headed a group of walkers, includ-
ing the Johnsons, McCarty, and Bailey, and no
man looked more fit than Yanghan. He was
not tempted to run or trot as O'Leary was. He
kept at a steady pace, a long, striding giant-like
pace that was the admiration of everybody
present. W. Lewis, of Islington, was another
favorite. A tall, well-built young fellow of 21,
he had already done wonders as a pedestrian.
As time wore on it was plain to be seen that
O'Leary was getting bis Irish blood, np at the
somewhat Insolent competition of George Hazel,
of London, who, through his own Hl-oonditioned
amUtdon. or heindlsnt ns" to do it, »»»»*»— ^
himself against O'Leary, and kept level vitli
him, haunting him on the English traek Uk*
his shadow. Hazel is not' a person of Tepat»
tlon, even among English pedestriaiis..4md iat '
hangdog, crouching style was in strikliig eos-
trast to tfae straight, upright, graeefnl form of
O'Leary. At every turn Hazel passed Clieaij',
once or twice challenging him in woods. Wben
Hazel got ahead by dint of mnnin£ mi
well as walking, O'Leary became ' worried, and
began to run, much to the dismay of his fnend^
who argned that he was thus bringing intopla;
a set of mnseles which would punish him bi
and by. " ni kill this wonderful man befon
Tve done with Mm," said Hazel, passing him at
one of the turns. ** "What did he say V* ex-
claim ed Mr. Russell, a famous snorting Qneen't
counsel ; " Did he use bad language ♦" " Well,
no : not exactly." we replied. " TU report him
if he did."
During a pause, when O'Leary leftf the track
for a few moments, his friends begged him tn
desist from running. " Let me alone," he re-
filed, ■Kith obstinatfe firmnes.s ; "I knowiriial
'm about," An hour and a half ^ad passed
away, and still Hazel headed him by a mile oi
two. This fldgetted O'Leary. It did not ma^
ter that others headed both of them. He
couldn't stand this bitter, slouchijig, personal
competitor. Therefore, he laid hiniself down
to beat him. Hazel was warned that any in-
fringement of the rules would disqualify him.
This, and the fact that he began to find he
wanted his breath to walk with rather t^aa to
waste ' upon words, kept him quiet, and-
tbe race went on, O'Leary mnning and
walking irith a steady persistence that
presently began to tell on his adversary,
who. gradually, after the second hour, began to
show signs of' punishment, and to d'rtiD in the
rear. At the end of three hours O'Leary had
walked and run him down, and he was to be
seen slouching in the rear of the Varigfaan group
without a friend ; since which time 1 have nei-
ther seen him nor heard of him. and I do not
notice that he is in the reports of the momini;
or evening papers. I am glad to hoar that
O'Leary has returned to his old "walking form :
though it is not without some surprise that I
read of Corkey having for some time proved to
be his severest competitor. Experts now besin
to discover that Corkey is not unlike Weston in
his style and in the wonderful recuperative
power of his system. But this is by the "way.
Sly business just now is ■with the opening of the
match ; and my object to. give you the color
of it.
By 4 o'clock I began to think that withon*
some mental or physical effort, softening of the
brain might render me incapable of telling the
story of the night. For four mortal hours these
human machines had gone round and round
in monotonous procession, aijd my eyes had
never wanderod from the track. Sleep and
cold and hunger attacked me. It appalled me to '
think that for a whole week this game of:
"rounders" would go on, and I inquired for
the refreshment bar. There was none. No
drink, no food, tintil Monday. It was in vain
that I urged that it was already Monday. The
chill of the morning air had crept into the
great bam-like building, 1 had had enough.
I suggested to Wilkie that we should so out and
hunt up a breakfast. We did. A local police-
man promised us that close by there iras
a cafe where we could get a chop" at 5 o'clock.
We returned to the arena. Tiie same dim,
strange light ; but not the same groups of press
men and friends. They had left the toilers to
their dull monotonous work. O'Leary's attend-
ant had a little whisky ■which gave us temp-
orary warmth, and we watched the cruel race
until 5, when the record stood thus : Corker,
the thin, delicate-looking Uttle man, had cov-
ered S7 miles 5 lans. O'Leary S2 miles 3 h^a,
" Blower" Bro^sro^S miles 1 lap, Vaughan 77
miles -4 laps. O'Leary had, therefore, beaten
his former distance, when ■tralking against
Weston, by two miles, Corkey scoring 'Tjoiiles
more.
That policeman and his eaf£ were dehiai'*« ; ,
bnt the distance to BillincHCBte Vwket iras not-
over two miles, and there isliwdly any paxt of
London at any hour during the 24 in which'
you cannot find a hansom cab. We were soon
bow^ling along toward the great fish market,
where any amount of breakfasts were to be
had, in addition to a picture of bustle and excite-
ment that would rub out of our^nindsthe dull
bnt strangely fascinating scene we had justleft.
Entering "riiames-street from tbe top of Lon-
don Bridge, we found ourselves, with tbe first
bluish rays of morning over our heads, in the
midst of fiare of gas and bustle of wagfons, a
street crammed -with traffic, a street in which
every store was filled -with fish — salmon, cod,
lobsters, mullet, soles, turbo t — a street in which
every pedestrian carried baskets full of fish on
his head. TJiat very day a report was being
prepared for the General Purposes Committee
of Aldermen upon the great dilficulties attend-
ing the traffic ot BUlingssate. The Chief Com-
missioner of the City Police stated that 2,000
tons of merchandise were daily delivered or
taken from the wharves between London
Bridge, and Tower Hill ; that npon
Brewer's Quay alone 4.000 casks of bntter
were not unfrequently landed .in one day, and
from 300 to 40'O tons were -weekly dispatched
from there ; in Pudding-lane last week 32,700
boxes of oranges were sold and taken awi^,,
chiefly via Lower Thames-street, and that it
often happened that 60 or 7<> -wagons -were be-
ing loaded thereabouts with this one fruit \ the
trade in fruit had increa.sed three-fold within
the last few years ; in the neighborhood of Bil-
lingsgate Market, 1.50O vehicles congregated
every morning for fish ; and that, in addition
to the ordinary traffic of the street, at least
1,. 500 tons of merchandise were recott-ved'or
delivered from the warehouses in Lower
Thames-street daily. Each dav 3.000 v^icles
passed along Esstcheap, 7,000 through Grace-
church-street, and 2,000 along Lower Thamaa-^
street, Tixis o vez|rro-wn business was canted o«,;

Jostled by porters, ran against by bn r im, we
tamed into one of the many aid-fashioned tar-
ems of the locality and ordered breakfast, and
then went to the market, A thousand na-
ligfats seemed to be flas :. ing upon a world ot sib
and an army of dealers, white,frocked patteta,
and money-tekers. Everybody -was busy. Half
a dozen sales by anction were going on. The
din is deafening ; and the fish lies about in vaac
piles. 'There issalmon from the Tay, the Tweed.

and the Yarmouth coast ; mackerel from Distds

supplied fish to the Normans, the Plantageneta,

Stuarts, the Orangeists, and tbe Georges; it is

Bad ihediMTy much ttfllgoliur «i; wm of
the «««ipetiton havins rested, alt of ihem har-
Inc taken considerable lAjariiilinxent, and to find
Corkejr still afae«d, and "Blower"* Brown, a
thick-set little fellow, trotting in the same plod-
ding 8tyle, which we had noticed before, though
to retiard u of cot much account. Now we are
told tliat his daily labor is to mn wheelbarrows
up and down planks : he is in fact what is called
a ooxumon laborer. Hia peculiar run is in keep-
ing with this description of his oecixpatio&*
It it diAcult to judes what • man
can anomplish at pedestrianiam hy his
itrle, bnt George We, a wjJl-taflt
man who walks in an almost lelsnre^ way,
looks like a human machine of ^reat endurance.
Lewis will some day make a powerful man ; at
present be is little more than a boy. Ha hai a
■null hend, broad shoulders, and ujall h^:
but for athletic form Vaughan is superior to M
competitors, not excepting O'Leary. He Is blar-
gerthan the Chicago man. He walks with a
loDg, swingine stride. His body Is well bal-
anced ; his head is poised upon nis shoulders
clean and free, and his manner is characterized
by a perfect calmness. Should he go on dnring
the next 24 hours ae at present, he will be the
favorite for the flrst prize. After which predic-
tion, we get back to the cirillzed West End of
London to bed, having seen morning dawn Cray
and misty over the north-eastern environs, to
meet the milkman, with his melaneholr cry,
and the early postman doing his Western
ronnds.
On Monday night 5,000 spectatort watflhed
the progress of the match. Hazel, who bad in
his weak, brutal way opened wl6i an effort to
walk down O'Leary, had disappeared, having
been ruled off the course. At 11 at night the
hall is cleared of all persons except the mress
and a favored few. This is generally the time
when the competitors take theirrest. O'Leary's
chief opponents retired, but be continued on
the track until 2:44, at which time he had made
124 miles, thus leading the score. It was re-
marked that on this occasion, as in his former
matches, O'Leary evinced a kind of morbid
dread of any one being ahead of him ; though,
as several professional runners are fighting
him this time, his anxiety on this head so
early in the race is a mistake, as his backers on
Sunday tried to impress upon him. He no
longer, however, attempts to mn, and in this
respect has given great satisfaction to his
friends. Corkey took the longest rest of idl the
men on Moudav night, being absent over four
boors. Now that the match is reported in the
papers, and that even society is beginning to
talk about it, the crowa at the Agricultnnil
Hall is immense, and the various editions
of the journals are bought up now for the
honrly bulletins. •' The great walking match,"
for the time being, is eclipsing the congress
telegrams. On Tuesday mght Corkey rested
again longer than any other competitor, and
O'Leary once more got well ahead. In the
afternoon, however, Corkey's rapid walking
'(for he bad given up running, more or less.)
told, and, amid great excitement, the little
thin figure, with its pale face and fringe of
black whiskers, passed O'Leary, who still
worked away, gripping in his hands a couple of
corn-cob Htems, which he savs help him, a
justification of my observation at the out-
set that his forehead is more the front of
a poet than that of a professional pedes-
trian. Early yesterday (Wednesday) morn-
ing, however, O'Leary was once more ahead,
but Vaughan, who is with many iadges
the favorite, was only a few miles behind him.
Jtlr. Martyn, the amateur, who was said to have
retired, reappeared in the afternoon, bnt he is .
too far behind for notice. The report yesterday
morning gave the following results : O'Leary
had completed 186 miles; vaughan. 181 miles
and 6 laps; Brown, 180 miles; Corkey, 179
miles 2 laps; McLeavy, 158 miles 2 laps; S.
B. Johnson. 156 miles 3 laps ; George Ide, 156
miles; J. •Smith, 152 miles; Gregory, 149
miles 3 laps: Lewis, 146 miles; anif G. John-
son, 140 miles 3 laps. The others bad not
reached 1-10 miles.
This (Thursday) morning the papers pro-
nounce the match to be a great success from a
sporting point of view. Many medical men
were present yesterday, and the athletes of Lon-
don are growing enthusiastic in the interest
with wiiich they are watching the event. Up
to the present moment the competition is re-
garded as most remarkable for the fine walking
of O'Learv and Vaughan and the wonderful
powers of pluck and endurance exhibited
by the wiry little Corkey, ■who has,
it is now said, been a professional
walker for more than a quarter of a century,
but his spirit is not the volatile, nervous, anx-
ious constitution of O'Leary. He is as quiet and
calm as be is unassuming ; and be re-enters the
track after his rest with a freshness not unlike
that exhibited by Gale during his 1.000 niiles
walk in 1.000 quarters of an hour — the greatest
feat in all the historr of pedestrianlsm. I pro-
pose to complete this record in another letter.
The finish of this match on Saturday night will
be tbe most exciting scene that has ever been
witnessed in the Agricultural HalL

To Bit ErceUeney. J. M. Stone, Umemor of the Statt
of MiMusippi .-
Toor petitioners most respectfolly represent that
we were membera of the Grand Jary of Kemper
County, «t the late Fall Term of the Circuit Coart.
Under our ostha we believe that we discharged oar
dnt7, and feel that wo did it conscientioaaly. How-
ever we mi^ht have been inclined to spara meiK we
dared not in view of the oath we hsd taken and the
law as eiven ns by the coart. 'We felt, snd feel, that
the rigid duty we were constrained to perform was
harsh, and we feel a great relief in nndentandlng
that what wo may have been compelled to do that
was harsh, lies in yoor power, consistently with law
r.nd rlfeht, to undo in the wise and
jadicions exercise of your mercifol prerogative as
GoTemor. While we have discbarzed oar duty
fearlesisly and honestly, as we claim, we think we
do nothing inconsistent with our action as Orand
Jurors, and as it is gratifying to onr feelings to do
it, we do most respectfally and earnestly pray yon
to relieve all those we were compelled to prefer
rbarces aeainst concerninB the riot of the 29th of
April, 1S77, by the interposition ot yonr pardoning
power. We do not enter into reasons of the view
we take of the harshness of the dnty we had to per-
form, bat assure your Excellency that we honestly
entertain oar opinions concerning it. As old clti-
lona of Kemper County, familiar with iu trials and
ttoables. and Knowing the actors In them, we express
to your Excellency onr firm conviction that the
gritntine of oar petition will accomplish more for the
promotion of peace and good order In our county
than a relentless prosecution of these cases, whieh. as
men professing to know whereof we speak, we know
will be irritating, producing continued excitement
attended with deep feeling rnnntog through the
whole body of the county, and we fear, may pro-
dace, rather than qniet, disorders. EiecutlTe kmd-
nessand leniency now wiU lay onr people, who long
for pence and quiet, under such great and lasting
oblieations to be lawsbiding and peaceful that we

In your wisdom and statesmansliip, and that they

COMING OUT AT A DBAWINQ-EOOM— HUICILI-
ATIOV AND nroiOKITIBS— A SCXm Alf
THK qUEIQt'S PALA.CK.
An Enffliah gentleman writes to a London
newspaper as follows :
" It h&< aometimes been remarked that a Drawlnx-
rootti In February li not alt<^ther an aamltlgated
io7. To the wisdom of the itmark I can testify
from my cf^rsonal experiences of last ThnrsdaT'. In
the first place, the greater part of onr street was la
XWBSesston of our national prot^^ the workinjzman,
whose serenity ander the trying nature of hh oeca-
patlon has been my admiranon for a week. ZHs ap-
j>etite or power of sleep can only arise
from a clearness of coneciesoe ^ven to
few, er ai> onfaiUnK performance of dnty
toward himself. The futlTe day which found her
Majesty endnrtDfc Buckingham Palace for the occa-
sion opened, or scarcely dawned, on tha haiy Krimy
metropolis. In the midst of steady rain onr stately
carriage drew up to the door, when my wife, in aU
her splendor, stepped forth into tbe dreary etemeot,
and, seating herself with dlf&colty, soon became lost
to sight In centuries of old lace. Meanwhile, an ae-
eident was taking place within half a yard of her nn*
conscious back, owiDg to a collision between two
oftposins vehicles, the drivers of which could not de-
cade whether to bless most onr carrlsge or the Board
of Works. It was In vain my daughter — our young
debutante— sere Am ed to her mother to spring out ;
that lady was enjoying the unruffled composure a
consdoasness of G^monds alone can give. At length
we drive off, and are soon passing languidly up an
areoue of very happy, very dirty, very wet hnman
beiacs, standing ankle-deep in mud— perfect models
of physical endurance, and with high mOral natures
showin? not a sign of envy in their heart*. Arrirlng
at the palace, we meander slowly through lofty cor-
ridors fined with Yeomen of the Guard, and fined
repose and many friends in the ballroom. Agllt<
taring mass is huddled nn at the entrance to the
golning room, awaiting the moment when these
tsjit gentlemen, with their uugallant office to per-
m. drop the cord which for the moment holds the
aristocracy In abeyance. Weary wfdting. pressure,
and discomfort. The proudest women of the land
are here subjected to hunailiationa acd indtgntties
unknown to them beyond the precincts of the palace t
fhey have to obey orders I Your eyes, wearied with
diamonda, seau the ceilings, and find them wanting
in cleanliness. Scraps of conversation amuse one.
A lady asks her friend to pick up her tail apd tuck It
under her arm. Darwin ought to Inquire Into this.
A vary pretty woman is ehaffin^ a gentleman
about the stntw coming out of his calves, or it is
soesested that another gentleman with vari-
cose veins showing through his ^k stock-
ings might pick it up and use it with
advantage. A whisper comes round that the
Qneetx has given np, and is walking about the garden
in a waterproof. No kissing of bands, thank good-
ness I The last cord has been withdrawn, and 1 now
leave my lovely charges to take care of themselves,
and doable back to reach the final scene by the cir-
cular method expected of gentlemen on these occa-
sions. I arrived In time to find my wife has passed,
and, like a tracedy queen, is watcfaluff the comport-
ment of her daughter. That young lady has just
emerged from the hands of two magnlfieeut pnges,
who have shaken out her train, and are now eailing
her name along the royal path. Here she comes,
makine tbe transit of the hearens like a graceful and
newly-discovered comet with a long white tml. She
Rtops in her progress to courtesy with the utmost
condescension to their Royal HlghDesses drawn up
before her. From that moment the mother is satis-
fied that her daughter is really out, and that the
whole world knows it."

TBS DEOADEXOB OF QOOD DIKSERS.
A I#ondon writer who is evidently » lover of
good cooking says: " There Is a ceneral complaint
now that dinners are not so good as they used to be^
It Is evident that it is not owlag to the Indifference
of the ^ests, or to their indisposition to appreciate
a Kood plot when they can get it. Any habitnft of a
club smoldng-room can corroborate this by llstenina
to the Intelligent criticisms of the two or three mem-
bers who drop In to smoke a dgar on their retnra
from a so-called zraod dinner. If we see* a reason,
It may possibly be di»:overed in the exag^
gerated method ot carrying out tbe Ros*
sisn service which now obtains. In Prance
each course is placed on tbe table before
it is handed round. In order that the gaesto may ap-
plaud the skill of the cook or admire the elejptnce
with which each dish is served up. This plan excites
an ajtreeable itnpreflsion And stimulates tbe apoetite.
Thus do horses take their prelimiimry canter before
a race that tlieir backers may have their hopes con-
firmed or their expectations modified. According to
the Anglo-Russian service, the guest know-nothing
of what he is gn1n« to eat, except what an often
ill-written and ill-spelled menu tells him, until
the dish is placed under his noee. to be
whisked away Immediately If he pauses for
a second to consider his verdict. This has
nndottbtedlya bad effect on the cook. He or she bss
no pride now in knowing that a dinner is seen and
praised. However elegant an entr^may b« sent up,
and however pretty a sight and work ot art it is when
so prepared, the first guest to whom it is handed
ruthlessly and selfishlv demolishes it aecordina to his
appetite, and all that his successors behold is a mis-
ahapen mass of what they know not, hideous to
look upon, and destmctive of those plessnrablo
emotions that wait on good digestion and appetite.
Moreover, the carving is detestable, and to see a
fellow hoicking away at a dinde aux tmfft on a side
table Is only suggestive of atrocities that mtist bo
nameless. The factis that a dinner nowadays con-
sists chiefly of flowers and fmit. The expense In-
curred by those who have no conservatories of their
own in providing these extravagant, though it must
be admitted pretty, adjuncts to the table would set
forth the simple and excellent repasts that
" The Orisinal '^ delighted In, as would every
one, If only a good host had the courage
and the cook to carry out his ideas.
To such a length has this absurd mania for flowers
reached that the ^ntrrm^t* sucres are often garnished
with them, and short-sighted guests have been seen
to devour cactuses and geraniums with evident gusto,
under the mistaken impression that they formed
component parts of their macidmne or OharloUe
Jtu»»e. It is not too much to hope that the thorough
plain cooks of bygone days may shortly replace the
sham and tawdry mitabolants of the partry cook's
shop. ^
SUITS AOAISST OEOBOIA.
The Atlanta (G».) CaratUution of March ' 29
prints the following brier account of tbe eases
brooght against the State of Georgia In the Tennes-
see eoarts, and says that it is asthoritatlve : "For
some time past there has been • paragraph floating
through the press to tbe effect that the State of
Georgia bod been sued for an Immense amount In
the (Siancery Court of Tennessee- The whole story
of the case is this ; The Elliott National Bank o(
Boston holds some notes made by Foster Blodgett,
Superintendent of the W. and A. R. R., to the
Tennessee Car Cimpany. The State having re-
fused to pay them, the bank enters suit against
the road in the Tennessee courts. The State
claims that a new set of notes were Issued to
take up these notes that the Elliott Bank holds.
The first batch of notes were not properly
signed, snd a new batch was prepared. Tbe
first notes were not taken up. and are now presented
for payment, when the most of the notes Issued
In their stead have been paid. After the
Elliott Bank had ientered suit, Henry Clews
& Co. amended the bill, and put In some
similar notes held by them. They also put in
some of tbe gold quarterly bonds, the history ot
which bss often been published. The State has re-
pudiated them time and again, and there is now a
eonstitntional bar to their payment. The first ease
will be tried in April. Attorney-General Ely, ex-
Attorney-General Hammond, and Messrs. Cook, Van
Dyke ft Cook represent the State. There Is no
doubt that the State will whip both of the suits.
The last cases win come np next October."

The Tonnerre is a new single-tarret nun-ship,
in which not only the gun but the turret Hself is
worked by means ot Mr. Bendel's hydranlis ma-
eUnsry. The turret carries two 23-ton gnus, and
Presents some novel features In Its eonstmetion.
'he belt armor is a foot thick, and tbe turret armor
14 Inches. The gunS are to be changed for another
pattern, three or four tons heavier, Ttie Tonnerre
Is the first of six ves>*els of the same kind for coast
defense purposes. The French have also madettlal of
their Devsatatian, an iron-dad oruissr aomewhat
larger than the English Alexandra, and having about
SOOtoBS more displacement than the English Devas-
tation or Thunderer. Her speed Is 14 knoU and her
belt armor 15 Inches thick. A sister vessel, ths
Foadroysnt, Is spproacbing completlola at Toolon.
The battery Is in a eitadel, and a remarkable result
has been otrtained by tbe use of 3Ir. Renders hy-
drauHe machinery. It being found practicable to
mount guns of 46 tons on tbe brosdside. These

TIVES OOVERNINO HIM IN BEPBODUCIKO
THE PLAT OF "AOKES."
The San Francisco Call of Mareh 23 prints
tbe following letter, addressed to Its editor :
Dkar Sib : I read In tbe PoH of the ZOth Inst, a
charge against Shook b Palmer, that In prodncing
the play of " Agnes " in this city, they are Intring-
■ Ing on tbe rights of Miss Ethel, the original pur-
chaser of the play from its author. In view of tbe
fact that Shook &'Palmer have been tbe most stren-
uous and persevering advocates ot what is called
the proprietary right in narauscrlpt plays, the charge
is both serious and unpleasant, and as tbelr repre-
sentative here I feel it my dnty to explain the error
under which the charge was evidently made.
It is true ttiat tor tbe manuscript play ot "Agnes"
Miss Ethel did pay M. Sardou the anm ot SIO.UOO*
It is also true that for Shook A Palmer I am about to
8 reduce the said play at Baldsrin's Theatre, on Tnes-
sy evening next, without even having asked the
permission or Miss Ethel. It is also true that Miss
Ethel, being 5. COO miles away. Is unable '* In time"
to take the necesaarv stops to prevent the produc-
tion.
It Is not tme that Messrs. Shook t§ Palmer have
either authorized or forbidden me to produce tbe
play, and I prodnce It simply on mv own a^ithority
and In obedience to my own sense of mj own rights,
and In conformity with my understanding of ail the
decisions given on tbe question ot proprietary rights
I since the ease of Wallack against Florence In rcgsrd
to the play of "Casta."
The recognition of a nroprletaiv right In a manu-
script Is undeniably honorable and equitable in our
courts. Bnt whenever a French author sells a play
in manuscript to a eis-Atlantlo star or manager, he
always reaervea to blmselt tbe right at some future
^tatsd period to publish such play. With the publl-
crtion the proprietary rights which are confined to
manuacript cease, and toe work is dedicated to the
world St large, and .becomes a common asset of tbe
repabUe ot letters.
The proprietary ricbts !ia the play of "Agnes."
purehasedby Miss Ethel from M. tiardou, expired
when M. Sardoa pubHSbed tbe p1^ through tbe firm
01 liovy Frsrea, in tbe Sprlag of 1875, and I hold
that there exists, neithsr at equity nor in law, any
more power to prevent my adapting, translating, and
presenting tfant play now than there exists to pre-
vent my maldog and presenting a new Enslish ver-
*Bion ot the " Don Carlos" of Schiller, the " Iphige-
nia" ot Goethe, or tbe " Mohammed" of Voltaire. So
long as the plar of " Agnes'* remained a manuscript
play, no honest man would have used It without com-
pensating MISS Ethel for that use. As sobn as it be-
came a published play none bnt a fool would refrain
from using it if he needed It. A. R. CA2AURAN.

The yarionfl churches in this City connected
with the Metho^st Episcopal Charch are embraced
in three Annual Conference organlzatlcnut namely :
The New-Tork. Kew-Tor^ East, end ICut German.
The last nsmed hu Ms hesd-qoArten in Kew-Tork,
and indudea ia ita. organization nil the Qerman
Chorebea east of the Alleghany Mountains: The
NeW'Tork Conference tnelndes tbe ehnretaes In this
Oty west of a line running from the Batterr along
Broadway to. aty Hall Park, thence throoth Chat-
ham-street, Bowezy, and Thtrd-aTenne to the Harlem
Rirer, and also the tenltory In the Pon^hkeeiwle,
Kewtmrg, Pmttsrine, EUenrine. and Bhlnebeok
districts. That part of the City east of the line
named, together with Long Island, and the Brld|;e-
port and New-Haven districts. Is eoTered by the
New-York East Conference. All these Conferences
open the sessions of 1878 on Wednesday of this
week. Kew-York Conference meets at St. Lnke's
Church, on Forty-flrst-street, Bishop Andrews pre-
sldinft : New-York East, at First-Place Choroh, Brook-
lyn, Bishop Foster in the chair, and Bast German in
Ponghkeepeie, nnder the Presidency of Bishop Simp-
son. The sessions nsnally last about a week, except
the East G^erman, which, beginning as do the others
on Wednesday, nsnally completes its bxisiness by the
following Monday noon.
The organization of the Kew-York Conference — the
parent body— dates from 1789. Prerlous to that
time the Methodist societies in America were not
classified into Annual Conferences, though there were
freonent meetings of the preachers. The present
session is, therefore, the eighty-ninth. In the pnb*
Ushed minutes of the body it is counted as the eighty-
eighth, on the suppoelUon that the first session was
held in 1789. Tbe records of the old John-Street
Chiirch, where the session was held, gire only a few
unimportant pardcnlars of t!iis flrst gathering. Less
than 20 preachers were present, Inclndlnj^the Bish-
ops and Elders. At the organization there were f onr
drenits reported, with a pastoral force of 13 minis-
ters, two of whom were Elders, and a total lay mem-
bership of 1,104:. There was then only one church
in the City, John-Street, with 330 members, of whom
54) were colored. The other circuits were. liong
Island, with 239 members ; Kew-Roehelle, 525, and
Dutchess, 10. The Conference territory included the
whole country north and east of tbe Delaware River.
Tbe only Methcj^ist Pastor then stationed In New-
York City was John Dicklns. afterward Book Agent
and founder ot the Methodist Pabllshlng House.
Among the preachers attending the first Conference,
besides Bishop Asbury, were Henry Willis, John
Dlcklna^ John McGIaskey. Thomas Morrell, Jesse
Lee, Darius Durham, and Freeborn Garrettson, all
prominent in the early history of American Meth-
odism. Freeborn Garrettson was the pioneer preach-
er to introduce Methodism north of New-Yoi^. He
led the mareh of the Church up tbe Hudson River,
forming circuits from New-Bocbelle to Lake Cham-
plain, orer which he placed young and zealous itiner-
ants.
At the second session of the Conference, In 1789.
the term " Presiding Elder "was flrst used, and
Freeborn Garrettson was chosen to fill that position.
J^Asociated with him was Thomas Morrell as Elder.
Abont 20 preachers were present at the session, in-
cluding Bishops Asbury and Coke. It was a most
Important Conference In lu results. A book-room
was established in Philadelphia, and John Dickius
was appointed Book Steward. This was the first
establishment of the kind in America, and from it'
has erown the present Methodise Publishiu£ House
in tais City, with its several branches tbroaehout
the country. Diekins was the first Methodist editor
as well as publisher. The first book Issued was Mr.
Wesley's abridged translation of the Imitatione of
Thomas h. Kempis, and the first periodical was the
Armenian llagaiint. <now the Methodist Quarierty
i?ert«ic^) dated also in 1789. The "Book Concern''
was soon transferred to New* York, where it remains.
The first preacher to introduce Methodism into
Kew-Englana was appointed atthis Conference. Jesse
Lee was the pioneer. The first Methodist sermon
ever delivered in Conoectlcot was preached by Lee
in NoTwalk In June of that year. At Boston. I.<ee was
nnable to obtain a place, public or private, for
preaching. He therefore stood under the famous
" old ^m " on the Common, and preached to an au-
dience of 3,000 people.
An address to Gen. Washington was adopted by
the Conference congratulating him upon his accession
to the Pifesidenfy a short time before. It was -pre-
sented to Washington by Bishop Asbury. This was
tbe flrst recognition of the new chief magistrate and
the Federal Constitution by any religious denomina-
tion.
The statistical summaries of the New- York Con-
ference were not reported separatelv from those of
the entin»- denomination until 180^). In that year
the membership In this City was 99.'j, and in the
Conference. 11,849. Commencinc with 1807, the
following table gives the membership of the Confer-
ence for each succeeding decade :

Fourteen Conferences now occupy the territory
which the New-York Conference covered at Its or-
ganization. These are Central New-York, East Ger-
man, Erie. Genesee. Maine. Newark. New-England,
New.HamDshire, New-Jersey, New- York, New- York
£a5t, Northern New-York, Troy, and Vermont.
At their last sessions these Conferences reported a
total of 2.817 itinerant preachers, 399,072 lay
members, and 3.232 churches.
The marked decrease in the decade 1847-57 Is due
to the formation of the New York East Conference
In 1848.
I Of the 382 churches in the New- York Conference*.
32 are in this City. The largest of these in point of
numbers is the Bedford- Street Church, with a mem-
bership, includine probationers, of 871 ; the second
largest is St. Paul's, whose membership Is 655. The
smallest of the City list is tbe Five Points Mission,
whose membership is 21. The isrgest church in
the Conference ontslde of New-York is Trinity
Church, of Newburg, with 713 members. St. John's
Church, also In Newburg. follows cIob«»1y with 710.
The East German Couference, to which belong the
German Methodist Churches in this City, first ap-
pears in the otB'-ial minntea in 1866. The session
to commence this week in Poughkeepsie is, there-
fore, its thirteenth annual meeting. In the minutes
for 1866 It reports four pastoral charKes in Now-
York, with two churches and 435 lay member*. In
the entire Conference there were 28 pastoral charges,
'2li itinemnt pre*ehera, and 2,45U lay members. At
the session of 1877 there were reported four
churches and 329 lay members in New-York. In
tbe Couference there are now 44 churches, and the
same number of itinerant preachers, with a lay
membership of 3,767, and 42 local preachers.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,
THE VETO OP THE CODE BILL.
GOV. ROBINSOX^S OBSTIXACT CONDEMNED —
TIEWS OP A SUPPORTER OF THE NEW
CODE— MR. D. D. FIELD AS A FR.A.MER
OP CODES AND AN OPPONENT OF THE
LATEST C^DE.
To Vie EditTT Of the Xeic- York Tltaei ;
The condition in which legal practice in this
State is left by the Governor's veto, and the failure
on the part of the Legislature thus far to act inde-
pendently, is one of grave importance to the people
at large who may be litigants, as well as to tbe mem-
bers of the Bar. While the veto of the nine chapters
of the Code required for its completion occasioned
general surprise, yet It was among those who were
not acquainted with Gov. Robinson. Those who
knew him as Governor expected nothinc else. The
general public naturally supposed that a veto would
not be interposed without good cause. Those ac-
quainted with the Governor knew that the only nti.
failing characteristic to be looked for iu hii action
was inveterate obstinacy. Last year he refused to
sign the nine chapters, and assif^ned the ridiculous
reason, which paused a laugh throughout the .State,
that he bad no time to read the bill ! This j-ear bo
did not wait to try to read it, but iu great haste sent
in a veto, without asking nearly tbe 10 days allowed
for consideration.
The principal ostensible reason is that the bill wa^ '
not ** road throuffh " In the Senate. The Governor
is not new to Albany, nor is he a fool, and be knows
perfectly well that hundreds of bills are passed every
year that are not read through on the third reading.
He knows that the practice after the middleof the
session is not to read them throuch ; and he is per-
fectly kware that at least 200 of the bills which he
sj^nedjlast year were not thus road. The excuse was
worthy of its object, and characteristic of the great
lawyer who probably suggested it. The people, out-
side of the legal profession, ou^ht to understand
what an outrace on them this veto is. I do not pro-
pose here to state the matter ct length, though that
should be done, but bimply to mention a point &r two.
There has been no revision of the statutes since
1830. Before that time there had been a revision
less than 20 years distant. Tbe leglslalion since has
been exceedingly voluminous. In order to bring
these laws together and into a convenient compass,
which the people could consult without great expense
or loss of time, a commission was' appointed to- re-
vise all tbe statntes. It has been at work a number
of years, and has cost a large sum of money, which
the people have paid in taxation. Its work was sub-
mitted in small portions (chapters) to tbe Judges
and lawvers of the State, a^d finally the first install-
ment was presented to the Legislature in 187G.
This comprised about two-thirds f 13 chapters) of the
Code of Civil Procedure. It was passed, and went
into effect May 1, 1377. The remaining third (chai>-
ters 14 to 22) was presented to the Legislature of
1877. and a long discussion arose. Some favored tho
new Code and some did not. But every sane man
wanted it complete and perfect if at all. All agreed
that we must have the whole or none. So finally
the contestants agreed unanimously, as a compro-
mise, that the operations of the Code should be post-
poned till Sept. 1. 1877. and that the second part
should be passed to take eHect then. This wardune.
and it was supposed that the contest was over for-
ever. We were to have a complete, compact, nni-
form system after Sept. 1. Bat no! The enemy of
the Code, (for it pr ctically had bnt one. Mr. D. D.
f^eld,) was too fertile iu expedients for that, and tbe
people were astonished to hear in June that the Gov-
emer had reftised to sign the second part.
So the people and the Bar were left in a condition
of confusion for nearly a year. Throush the "lack
of'tlm^ " of the (Joveriior they had an incomplete
system only two-thirds enacted to work 'with, and of
course it was awkward. lis incomplete condition
caused additional labor to the lawyer and expense to
his clients, (which the Governor ought to pay,) but
it was borne patiently, because all looked to tbe
now Legislature for a prompt completioa of the
Code, and we were not disappointed. It was passed
with credit.tble expedition, and again lawyers be^ah
to breathe freely — that is, those who did not know
the Governor^ overruling trait of character.
And now the veto has come.
Let us see for a moment what is vetoed. It is
chapters 14 to 22 of the revision of tbe statutes.
It contains a clear, concise system of practice in Snr-
roeates' courts, in various special proceedings, man-
damus, prohibition, cases of luuacy, dower, waste.
contempts, habeas corpus, &c-, in all of
which the practice has been varyinc and
ot«cure. It brings together everything re-
lating to these matters from, the old Code, the
Revised Statutes, the 60-odd volumes of Session
Laws since 1829. and the decisions of courts con-
tained in over 250 volumes. It ma<es so plain and
simple that every layman can perfectly uuderstand
them these special branches of practice, many of
them unustiaf Mid unfamiliar, which nowcaU'for
long examinations ot volumes of statntes and re-
ports, on the part of lawyers who have occasionally
^o engage in them.
There Is nothing in these nine chapters that ovot-
tums anythihg that 'is objectionable, or that is not '
much wanted. - The lawyer who has read them and
does not approve them (nlnvays excepting Mr. Field)
has not yet been discovered. Anart from their own
merit they complete tbe code of civil procedure.
This still give us one uniform, perfect system of
practice, at unity with itself in every part. It will
tnrnish to the practitioner in a single volume the
whole law of procedure, plainly written, to ascertain
which now he must consult at least 300 volumes. It
will lessen the labors of tbe Bar. and consequently
the expense of litication, at least one-quarter. In
short, it gives to the StHte of New- York what it
meant to have 30 years ago. but unfortunately failed
to complete then, an entire homo^neous system of
practice in legal proceedings.
Where does tbe veto leave us I It is to be hoped it
leaves us in possession of a Legislature of knowledge
enough, coariige enough, and enough regard both for
the tax-payers who have paid for this work, and tbe
whole body of the people who are liable to be drawn
hito litigation, to pau the bill with great prompti-
tude OTSr tlia veto. If not, we have noth ng bnt eon-
fusion balovtf na until tbe present Governor dies or
vacates bis offiee. or anothei Legislature, more re-
gardful of tlie people, cornea to. be oor deliverer. We

them all to fail of .paskage, after their action
in 1848- ' The latter Codes never became laws

New-York, Saturday, March 30, 1S78.
THE CHINESE AND THE PUBLIC SCHOOU
SENATOR SARGENT'S STATEMENTS DISPCTED '
^NO MONGOLIANS IN SAN rBANCISCC
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
To the Editor of the Xefe-Tork T^ma:
Allow me space in your colttmns to eotrect m
grievous error made by Senator Sai|[ent in his anti-
Chinese speech before the United States Senate on
the7thinst. Mr. Sargent is reported to have aald:
"There is very little doubt that a few ChincM
children in San Fra.v-i^eo nttend S'^hool, for the last
report of the School Superintendent of that dty
shows 119 in attendance at the public schools,
thereby showine thut the inference of^this document
frcferr.ng to J. G. C. Kennedy's defense of Chineae]
is false, viz.. that tbe public j>rcjudice prevents such "
attendance. If 110 can attend, any number may."
Now, the facts of the case are quite different frodf
the impression which this statement ot the Senator
is certain to make. In the years ISGS and 1869 n
separate evening school for Chinese was sustained
by the public school fund of San Francisco, but that
school was soon discontinued, and for the last sis
years or more no separate school for Chinese has
been opened at public expense ; norhas a single Chi-
nese ever been admitted to the classes snd privil^jM
of tbe common pnhlic schools of S.tn Francisco.
In the report of the Concressional Joint Special (^in
mission on ChineRelmmigmt'.on. of which commissloi
Senator Sargent was a member. Is' the sworn testi-
monyof an iotellicent and reliable witness, statln|
that he himself bad made a formal written applSc*
tJOD to tbe .School E 'ard of San Francisco in behali
of nn intelligent, well-mannered Chinese lad for ad-
mission to the pcblic school, and that the applicatioB *"
was denied on the ground that public sentiment
would not allow it. The report of the School Super-
intendent, to which Mr. Sargent refers as showisia
119 Chinese In attendance at the puV.lc schools,
when read corriytly fails entirely to sustain his state-
ments. In tbe body of that report is a table of Et»-
ttstica entitled "Census Reyort for June. 1S77. '
This page of census starlstics is^ divided into columnt
giving the nnmber of children over 5 and under 1".
yenrs of age; number of white .lud colored children at-
tending private schools, number of each attending
public schools, i:c. Two columns are devoted to
the MongoT.ins, UTid the heading of one
of thei^e rca'l!* : " .Mongolians under 17 years
of agf." "whoiti^ number 'J.082." The
other column is headed, '•ilongoians between 5
and 17 years attending; school." Nmnber. 109. The
rej«ort d(.-es iit»t say that these' Mongolians attended
tho publi'Tscltool. or t»riv«ie (school, as in the case of
ihtj wJiite and eulored children, but simply says
" Monaolians attending school." It is well known
inal! tlie-lHnd that there are a nnmber of mission
schools j'or Chinese in San Francisco, sustained by
tbe nsissiounrv societies of the various Protestant
chtirche«. T-h««e mission schools, and a few private
elu-vse". are th** nuly schools sustained bv Americau
people f) whi'-h the Chinese are admitted, and
neither thes« mission schools nor private classes
have ever a.^lted lor* or received any aid whatever
from the puulicfcbool fnnd of this city. It seems
a little Finnilar tbot our honorable Senator, xntb all
the F.id history of tliis (."hiTieso question so fresh in
:i!s mind, sliould h.iivo fullon into so palpable an
error. It is worthy of remark, too. tbiit at about.

This petition was immediately laid upon tbe.tahle,
and one of the leading daily papers of San Frsn-
risro — a pa(ter which has pcrsi5iently and bitterly
opposed the Chinese, chic-fly on t'le ground that they
do not assimilate with onr language snd > ustotns —
stigmatized this petitioi as "exacting and aggressive"
on the part of tbe Cbincso.nnd warned the people to
beware. It said;
•■ Now the Chinese demand r^ommon school advan-
t»jes, which means that they wish to lenrn the Eng-
lish langtjKge. so as to obtain larger waces. This
petition gives a new and more serious aspect to ths
Chinese question. Tbe race is striving to take root
in the soil. They desire, or iirofess to desire, to
mingle their yrtoth with ours, with m view, doabt-
h'ss, to more thorou;:h assimilation in the body
politic."
In view of this tendency the people are adiBMi-
ished to walce up to a sense of the impending evils of
Chinese Immicmtlon. Snch Is a fair specimen of the'
pabulum which the better elaaa of our daily nspets.

Chinese mnst g' because they won't a.ssimilato and
will work cheap. Tonrtorrow t ley must not cone

The work of un«arUtinK the sappressed
*T (orgotton writings ot the poati and Krlbblera
o{ th» Mflypcrt ot tUa oantory gotts brsTeiy
forward. The lattars of Keats to Franeea
Brawna hare bean dragged before tbe pnbUo,
ud the earUaat oontribations to Uteiatora by*
Charlea and Hazy Ijamb have been reprinted
and sifted by diligent editor*. One of the minor
great men of the time Was Tom Hoore. Per-
haps it la owing to hla happy and sweet disposi-
tion that the present addldon to his printed
works, while eonMaing a great Tarlety of mat- :
ter, seldom aiforda a pleee of writing whleh
will damage his ripntatlon. Forty years ago
the reputation of Moore was higher than tt la
now. and the rerses " To Zella : On her Charg-
ing the Author with writing too much on
Ijove," wonld, have lowered the poet In general
Bstesm. But since he has gone out of fashion,
such tame ventores ot boyhood wiU not depress
his rank; they will effeet nothing either one
way or the other.
Thirty pages comprise the rerses which are
now eolleeted from varlona aonnses. Some are
from a sorap-book which eontaina newspaper
eattings of his poUtieal sqniba ; others from a .
uanoseript book, written ont for and dedicated
to his mother, and the rest from a monthly'
magazine published In 1793 and 1794 at Dab- '
lia, under the name of Aiakologia BUnrnlea.,
Among these will be tonnd one relating to the
United States and her claims against France.
It Is called : " Police Baports : Breach of the
Peace." The first two stanzas ran thus :
" Two flane-looUns foreigners, ehatged with intend-
ing
Someierlotttlnfisstion ot peace.— and of skuB,—
wnidiml^t take law and suicnysoias time is
mending
Ware had op to-4a^before old Jnstlse BnlL
"OnsnTohls name 'Jonathan, 't'other, 'Uonn-
Both, speeehers and wrlton,— as who now is not I—
Bothteo^t at die rnj same ftt-tchool w* hear,
Thongn Momstir hiu^ ot lata, all kit learang
fotgot."
Justice BuQ binds the two orar to keep the
Mttce, and the Frenchman is not forced to pay.
Wherenpon the Tanksa relieres his mind as!
follows :
"Asthar narted shrewd Jonathan spoke thus Us
mlna;
'As I caleulste, Ulster, your Rnmption's hut dull.
If yon wish to know how I treat Nobs who're in- ■
oUnad :
To take liberties vUk me, or /ram me, ask BolL' "
Hoore's early wit, to jndge from these speci-
mens, was somewhat heavy. He is more like
jhimself in his "Ods to St Patrick." Bnt h is
partlcnlarly dUficolt to judge fairly ot aatiri-
eal eltaslons at so great a distance; the ques- '
tions that eonrulsed England In Moore's time .
seem ludicrously petty to us who have the com- ,
' f ortable certainty that the world did not go to
ruin through the efforts of the Jesolts or the '
Intolerance ot the No-Pop«ry party. The lines
headed "Some Account of a Kew Qenus ot
Chorehman, called the PhlB-Pot," bristle with
jokes and sharp sayings, the Tigor of which
reaches even to tbe presentday. The questions .
and answers attributed to the luckless Bev.l
Henry Philpotts may ba exempliflsd by the f d-
lowlng extract:
" 1. What's the Church I

The rest of this Tolnme is composed of con-
tributions to the Edinburgh JStvisw between
1814 and 1834 ; of various other short pieces
In prose ; of a comls oporn in three acta, called
"M.P.;or,TheBlaeStoeklng;" of letters to Leigh
Bunt, and notes jotted down for Moore's Z4ft of
Lord BifTon. The most Interesting ot them all
Is a mast of hasty notes on the character and
acts of liord Byron. They throw a virid light
on the morbid poet as 'he appeared to a friend.
Moore was not enoagh of a genius to be formi-
dable to Byron, and mnch too clever to be taken
in by the noble poet's mystifications and false
heroics. The editor has deciphered these notes
=fram a quarto manuscript book of Moore, part-
ly in penoQ, partly in InE, written In his
minutest hand and with Innumerable corrections
and intarUneationa. Here are spedmena :

Theae hints, in eosneetloii with mooted qnes-
Uoiu regarding Byron's life, are actually valu-
able, while the fiction which the volume con-
tains, although interesUng in itself, can hardly
be said to add anything to our knowledge of -
Vbm Moore.

In a fragment called "The Chapter' of the
Blanket." It is Oriental, but prose, not poetry,
tt is a novel rather than animaginative romance.
The scene opens in Bsgdad, and opens cleverly
enough to make the reader sorry that the end
WW nbt reached. The letters to Leigh Hunt
ehufly show the high estimation which Moore
placed upon the geuins of 'his brother poet.

From ' the Ot tHiu SInntU ot Tarrs BnriH.
PhUadalDhU: J. BLLirmooiTAOa. 1878.
Fritz Beuter waa a leader In the sohool of
writers in po/ots daring the last 30 years: ' He
died In 1874, having reached a respectable age,
notwithstanding his sufferings in prison.
Whan a collegian at Jena the youthful Fritz
became involved In certain patrtotie movem^ttta
among the students who aimed at the estab-
lishment of a new order of -things, espeelally
the freeing of Qermany from the boada of
nneasy little Ungdoma aad prlaelpaUtiM. It
was such agitatloas as he was eonneetod with
which paved tha way for the TTnlted Qermany
of the present day ; Bismarck knew how to use.
the real discontent which lay at the bottom of
them to break down the power of the mlaor
Oovemments and pat Prussia at the head ot
affairs. Although nothing of any conse-
quence appears to have been jlroved aMdnst
Renter, he was kept In prison for many years.
When released he returned to hla native land,
on the confinee ot Prussia and Denmark, there
to strike ont a peculiar vein of fietton. While
the literatnre of paloii cannot be considered
lacking even to Oermany—Ensland possessed
it, notaUy in the Scotch dialect— his Piatt- <
Deutseh stories had, nevertheless, sll the
freshness of originality. They were orig-
inal, as far as Beater was eoaeemed,
and were, moreover, peeuHarly fitting
as the outcome of a life to a great extant
wasted in imprisonment for a popular oause.
The SuneAemchqflen, to have belonged to
which societies was Beater's crime, had the
good of the people at heart. They would have
liked to establish a republic ; they wonld have
been glad to hail a confederation ot States, bnt
what they got was hard blows and Imprison-:
ment. Renter therefore turned very naturally *
to the daily life of a Pommeranlan farmar for
material for hla stories. Bom In Sehleswlg-
Holstetn, he has done for that eomer ot Ger-
many what Robert Bums and hia literary kith
and kin did for Scotland. There ia aomethlng
of Friedrich Biehter in his minnte handling of,
the everyday life of the oommon herd, bnt,
while patitos is a frequent charaoteristlo of his,
he shows little of the Inimitable humor or the
soaring imagination ot Jeaa PauL A braea of
writers in French wlU be suggested by the
style of his work — Erekmsnn and Chatrian —
who have described farm life in A 1 satis with
the same fidelity to nature as this North Qer-
man.
Setd-Hme and Barmt Is translated from a
work In Platt-Dentsch called JVom my JPays. of
JCmotion, if that may be allowed as an equiva-
lent of the word Stromiid. Translation takes
from Renter the clothing of his novel ; It Is a
severe test; we lose the freshness and snap of
homely Idiomatic expressions. But the pic-
tures are very exact, and the whole has a direct
bearing on the welfare of the oommnnity where
it was written. What Renter's expressed in-
tention was may be learned from tha following
quotation at the end of the novel:
** Some people may aak the qaeatlon. Where are
Pompalhagen, and Bexow, and OurUtsf Well, roa
win look m vain for them on the map, sad yet they
are aitnated in oar German Fatbeiitad, aoad I hope
they are to be fonnd in more -plaeea than oaa.
Everywhere— where a nobleman reatdea. who doea
not think hlmsalt better than his fellow-men, and
who recognizen the lowest of hia laborers as his
brother, snd himself aa a fellow-worker — there is
Pompelhseen. Wherever there ia a elefgyman, who
doea not demand. In hia ielt-coneeit, that ev^f body
ahall believe precisely aa he doea, • • • than Is
Gorlltx."
From which extract ii will be seen that Renter
waa no very fnrious leveler, and took^no unneces-
sary dlamal view of hla f ellow-landamaa.

MoMDAT, April l-'A. M.
The weeUjr statement of the asaeeiated
banka, iasoed from the Cleoiiag-houae on Sat-
urday laat, ahowed a loss of- $710,176- in sur-
plus reserve, thus reducing the amount held by
the banka above the 25 V cent, legal Umit to
*lD,Se8,400. The moat notable ohaage waa
a deorease of $919,000 in speole, representing,
in some degree, the withdrawala of Gold for
thlpmant The legal tenders are down $180,-
300, and the depoaita $1,660,100, whUe there
ia an ineraase of $24,300 la loans, and of
$6,000 la dreularioa.
Tha followlnK shows the condition ot the
CHy banks thla week, eompared with the pre-
viona statement and with the statement fbr Uia
corresponding weak last year :
March S:). March Sa ManA SI. 1877.

The Money market worked easily throughout
the week, and the majority of transactions in
call loans were effected at 495 V cent. To-
ward the doee the market exhfldted a harden-
ing taadeaey, and rates advanced, but iqipear^
ances indicated that the movement was, ia some
degree at least, doe to artlflelal manipnlation.
There is no change to be noted in the discount
market, prime mereaatile paper having been
quoted steadily at 4S0 V cent., according to
date of maturity.
The foreign advleis reported a feverish state
of affairs ia the finaoelal centres of Europe nn-
der a general apprehension that England is in-
evitably drifting into a war with Russia. At
London Consols dropped ^ V cent., and the
Bank of England ralsad Its rate of diaebnnt
from 2 to 3 f eeai; United Statea bonda de-
clined i^a la f cent., and American railway
shares ^■a \ V cent., excepting the coal stocks,
which were strong throughout, and advanced
sharply. The Bank of England lost £341,000
bullion daring the fiscal week ending Wednes-
day last, aad £28,000 additionalhas since been
withdrawn on balance. The proportion of re-
serve to Uabillttee was S3 3-16 ¥ cent, against
36 the previons week. Bar ailver advaneed
from 64 3-16d. to 64^sd. ¥ onnee. Radish
standard. At Paris Bentes dropped 6 ¥ cent
The Bank of France gained 16,800,000 francs
specie daring the week, and the Imperial Bank
of Qermaav 3,000,000 ni&ks. At the dose of
the week the dispatehes reported a fractional
recovery In prices at Paris and London.
In the Sterllag Ezehange market the trade
for the week waa arerage In amount, and, at
the dose, waa sthhnlated Into aetM^ by the
bond dealers, as well aa by the exdtlng news
from abroad. The large buyers of SteiUag
seem to have thair lines full of all deseriptlons
of 60-day bills, aad now give preference, to
cables and demand, or shipments of gold.'lUs,
with the apprehansloa of a' still farther advance
in the Bank of Kngland rate of dlsoount, will
readily account for any apparent weakness In
long Sterling. The nominal asking rates for
60-day and demand biUa were advanced by the
leading drawer* ige., to $4 87>3*$4 90, re-
spectively, and aetnal basiaes* at the elose was
-aathe bads of $4 86ia«$4 86\'for 60-day
bllla, $4 891i«$4 WH tat damaad, $4 90 a
$4 90^foreabUs, and $4 85«$4 86I4 fbr
commercial bUls on London.
The Sold speenlatioa waa strong on the ad-
vance In tha rates of exchange, which oaosed
shipments ot bullion and coin daring the week
aaionntiag to nearly $2,000,000. The price
advaneed from lOlH to lOl^a, dodag at
101%. On Odd loaaa tbe rates ranged from
3>a to 7 f eeat.
Qovarnmeat bonds were strong aad active,
the dmaand .proeeediag chiefly from small in-
vestor*. Prices advanced ^■ai^ ¥ cent, on the
week's transaetionB, the greatest impiwement
having been in 1808s, eonpoa and reglatered.
Railroad bonda wsra la 'active damaad, and
prieea, with very few exeeptlona, were Uf^er
than during -the previoua week, parttcnlariy for
New-Jersey Central oonaola, Nortlt-weatera
gold eoupona, St. Paul consolidated Sinking
Fnads, Mlehlgaa Centrd 7s, Fort Wayne
Firsts, and Union Padflo Firsts. In State
boada the priadpal feature waa adeeliae in
Lonlaian^ consols firom 78>^ to 76^ and ia
District of Columbia 3.66b from 76^ to ti^
The stock speculation was strong in tone on a
large and wdl-dlatrlbnted (bnainess. The pnr^
chasing movement in varieas cJaassa of diaree
wsa ehanwterixed by much qdrit aad eoafidaaea
Oeeadoaany the market suffered tUsnatonl re-
Botions laddental to a healthy bull movement,
bnt good bayei* invariably appeared whenever
a decline ia prioee oceurred. The coal shares
and the Qrsaiger stocks were conspicuous in the
dealings, uid advaneed sharply. - The general
list dosed ina, with aa npwatd tendener to
pricea.

AlthoQgti the reports of the views ex-
pressed at the Bepnblican Senators' caucus
on Saturday evening are exceedingly indef-
inite, it is xnrobable that they are not more
EG than the views of the Senators them-
selves. It is apparent that no specific ac-
tion was taken, or even proposed, with ref-
erence to the relations of the Republican
Senators to the President. That is a
question which, fortunately or unfortu-
nately, does not admit of any specific
treatment. The effort made by Mr.
Howe to lead the way in that direction
was a melancholy failure, and is not likely
to encourage any of his fellow-Senators to
follow him. He made very evident what is
Eaid to be the feeling of the Senators gen-
erally, that tfa^re is nothing to be gained by
criticising the irreversible acts of the Presi-
dent. But it will be a very grave mistake
to suppose that Senators can do nothing to
strengthen the party, independently of the
President. Let them deal fairly with the
• Presidents appointments, confirming the
good and rejecting the bad ; let them, if they
have the courage, embody in proposed legis-
lation the principles of civil service reform
which the President has professed but does
Sot practice ; let them act vigorously and
onestly with the legislation that comes
before them, especially with reference to
the finances ; let them agree, if they can,
upon some snch simple measure as the fund-
ing and cancellation of the legal tenders,
and they need give themselves no imeasi-
xess as to the vitality of the party or the
President's disposition or power to in-
jure it.
Mr. VoOBHEES was at home last week on
K vacation from his exhausting labors in the
Senate, and took occasion to make a speech
at Terre Haute, in which he repeated all
his famUiar doctrines. His speech was par-
tioolarly noticeable, however, for his at-
tempt to " cover" his recent hint that the
West conid get on without the East in the
matter of Democracy. He now explains
that " Democracy, East or West, is opposed
to eontraction and resumpffou,"- and that
tiiere is no need for dissension, because
the East accepts the political faith of
the West This will bo news for Senators
Batabd, and Bakdolfh, and Kebnait, and
Eatoit. These gentlemen may also take ex-
ception to the elaim of the Democrats
that the proper place for the Com-
monistB, who call themselves Nationals,
is not in a separate organization, but in the
bosom of the Demooraoy. But Mr. Voob-
HSES is a better indiaator of Democratic
ten(^neies than much better men might be.
Our readera will find in our columns this
imotning the reports made to the Snperin-
tendent of the Banking Department by the
trust eompanies doing business in this City.
The importance of this interest may be real-
ize when it is rtated that the capital paid
jtt is reported at nearly $11,000,000,
'-^rhieh the surplus and reserved funds and
'^e undivided profits bring up to nearly
fifteen milKona and a half, while the
total assets foot up $83,438,650. The
"jBtepest, cominis«lon«, and profttB of every
iescription received and ao«med during
the last six months " are reported by eight
companies, with aasets amonntijig to
$55,381,230, at $1,596,266. This gives
an average nX» of 2.7 per «ent for the
diTidmds deolared within
half year. Tba
the wnetims are Mt down" at $495,000,
The jsxtent of money lavohred, and the very ^ , ,.
truit eompanies, wilT pngeoie tor these ra-
ports a very genisral and cloaa semtinr.
It appears that Mr. Whvliak Hkkbt
S3IITB, Colleetor of Coftoma at Chicago, has
sent in his resignation. Various causes
have conspired to disgust Mr. SuiTB with
official life, bat chief among ftese has been
his inability to bring the import trade of
Chicago on a par with that of New-Tork.
Mr. Smith has worked hard. He has had
himself interviewed, on an average, twice a
day daring the three months or so of his
official career, and a earefal eompntation
shows that he has famished jost 156 col-
umns of matter to the Chicago newspapers.
As he occupied tiie doable position of Col-
lector of Customs and agent of the
Associated Press, Mr. SlOTH un-
doubtedly felt that he was fitly
serving both masters in being exceed-
ingly " ready with the oral" when the Chi-
cago reporter applied for the latest revela-
tion about the iniquity of the New- York
Custom-house. Mr. Smith also found time
to write letters to the "Freasury Department
on his favorite topic. His masterly expose
of the great umbrella fraud showed that he
only laoked opportunity to make himself
one of the most ridiculous persons in the
coimtry. Strange to say, he intended his
letters to be private, and one of his griev-
ances la that Secretary Sherman disregarded
that requirement. Mr. Smith's resignation
should be promptly accepted. Mr. Le Ditc,
Stakli^ Matthews, and William Hnntr
Smith- are too heavy a load for any Admin-
istration to carry all at once.
The McGairahan elaim, which has for
some weeks been a regular feature in the
Saturday's proceedings of the Senate Com-
mittee on Public Lands, is in a fair way to
a decision which may be finsL The case,
as now presented, is environed with almost
endless l^gal complications. McQ-arrahak
claims that he is an injured and wronged
man. But the case is closed ; so far as the
courts are concerned' he has exhausted
his rights of appeal; and he asks that
Congress shall order the Supreme Court to
reopen his case. Both sides have piled up
formidable barriers of judicial proceedings,
in the midst of which the equities originally
involved have quite disappeared. Whether
the case was or was not appealed, and, if so,
whether it was or was not legally appealed,
and whether various proceedings were legal
or illegal, just or fraudulent — these
questions all#re to be brushed aside and
the case decided on its merits.
Of course, there must be a laborious
investigstibn before this conclusion can be
arrived at. But if the petitioner is found to
possess equities in the much controverted
matter, he may be sent to the Supreme
Court for a rehearing. This is an unusual
and somewhat dangerous precedent. Only
in extreme cases can Congress safely inter-
fere to request the courts to reopen a oon-
.troveray which has once been formally con-
cluded. As a role, petitioners for this favor
have been denied.
OVERLOADnfG TBE GOVEBJOfENT.
There is a trite subject, but one to which
the events of the day are constantly giving
new interest, in the tendency of American
public opinion to demand from the Govern-
ment the performance of work for which the
Government is very poorly fitted or
is not fitted at all. A striking illus-
tration of this tendency exists in
the views recently professed by the Sec-
retary of the Treasury with reference to the
Government notes, and this illustration is
the more noteworthy because Mr. Sher-
man's views are quite in harmony with
those of the great majority of men in public
life, and of the people as welL The main
point with the Secretary of the Treastiry is
that the Government notes shall be brought
to par with gold, and that they shall then
be kept in circulation by being received for
all dues to the Government and by being
paid out at the discretion of the Treasury.
We have already pointed out what we be-
lieve to be the elements of grave danger to
the finances and the business of the country
in the practical operation of such a scheme.
But it is worth while still further to call at-
tention to its unsoundness arising from
the unfitness of our governmental ma-
chinery to carry it out and from
its extreme liability to almse. In
effect, Mr. Sherman's plan mflces the
Treasury a bank of issue, with a circulation
nominally of three hundred millions, with
an enormous range of discretion as to con-
traction and expansion. The Secretary even
went farther, and hinted that it might be of
advantage to place in the hands of the
Treasoiy the power to fix the rate of inter-
est in some degree, such as is now pos-
sessed by the Bank of England. This
is not an attractive form in which
to present the Secretary's ideas, but
we cannot see wherein it is, not a
just one, and if the proposition thus stated
seems to conservative and practical minds
at once crude and ambitious, it must be re-
membered that it is not the isolated expres-
sion of the conception of one public man,
but that it is in harmony with the notions
of a large part of the leaders of both par-
ties, and that opposite ideas have been
very rarely, and by no means strongly,
pressed. During the silver debate in the
Senate, Mr. Christianct, of Michigan, a
man of unusually careful temper, and quite
untouched by the ordinary fallacies
of the inflationists, gravely proposed to
meet the difficulty of the changing values of
gold and silver with reference to each other
by means of a commission who should as-
certain and declare snch values at fixed in-
tervals. Descending to the level of the or-
dinary theories of the inflation school, we
find that it is a fundamental idea with a
great many ol our public men, that the
right and power to issue currency rest pri-
marily with the Government and ou^t to
be exercised directly by it alone. *
When, therefore, we define Mr. Sher-
man's proposition as one to make the Treas-
xtry a bank of issue, we certainly do not
aoensehim of any speeial singularity. When
we condemn him, as we think every oaref al
student of finance must do, we condemn,
not him alone, bat a considerable and im-
portant body of the actaal repreaentativeB
of public opinion. Tet it seems almost in-
credible that a man holding a position of
■o mneh authority and responsibility
as that of Mr. Shxbican, and ea-
peeiaUy a man who tar many years haa
enjoyed the opportonitiea which he has
had of stadyingths practical working of
tloit'it-coidd parfoi&.with any degree of
safety, to say nothing oi effieienoy, the vaat
toaetions whieh he is now prepared to sad-
dle tq^on it Even supposing that the G ov-
ersment issues could, imdet Mr. Sherman'b
plan, be kept at par with gold,, it is
{dain that the power to tegalate the
amount ' ol these issues within the
wide' limits of the operations of the
Treasury would be an exoeedin^y delicate
one. ' It would require not only great wis-
dom,'bat an almost unattainable complete-
ness of information and precision of jodg-
ment; to enable any Secretory of the Treas-
ury to exercise such a power without dis-
turbing vt^nes and interfering with the cal-
cnlatioqs of the business world to a most
periloos degree. These qtialifications, un-
der' OUT Government, are not likely to be
possessed by any Secretary. There is no
school in which he coqld acquire them. If
he is a sound and experienced man of af-
fairs, he is not likely to be called to the office.
It he were called, his term would be too
brief, under tlje most favorable circum-
stances, to aUow of his adopting or enforc-
ing an adequate policy, and however great
his personal qiialifioatioDS in private life,
he wonld in all probability have no suf-
ficient ' knowledge of the operations of
the Treasury to guide him. And
again, apart from all other considera-
tions, the Secretary of the Treasury
has too many other and different duties
to perform to permit him to exercise
properly the discretion which is allotted to
him by Mr. Sherman's plan.
To these facts must be added the important
one that the idea that under this plan, with
our three forms of legal tender, the Govern-
ment paper could be kept at par -with gold
is a pure assampUon. There is nothing in
experience to justify it, and there is very
much to convince us that it is illusory. If
it should turn ont to be so, if it should be
found that the Government paper was con-
tinually fluctuating as compared with'
gold, the power of the Secretary
of the Treasury would be proportionately
increased ; his errors or his incapacity — to
speak of no graver faults — ^would be pro-
portionately more misehievoos. Besides
which, it must be remembered that it is not
in the nature of things that ha should be
left undisturbed in the exercise of his dis-
cretion. Congress would be constantly in-
terfering with it. When, in 1866, Mr. Mc-
culloch ventured to enter on so simple
and necessary a work as that of paying off
the outstanding legal-tender notes, he 'was
promptly stopped by Congress, and when, ten
years later, Mr. Sherman proposed the pres-
ent Resumption law, he did not venture to
say clearly that he desired to give the Sec-
retary the power to cancel notes which had
been once redeemed. He knew that if he
pro'posed that power, his bill would have
been defeated. The existence of three hun-
dred millions of legal tenders, recognized as
a part of the currency of the country, wonld
be a continual temptation to Congress to be
directingthemanner in which they should
be used. To the dangers arising from the
uncertainty of the Secretary's action wonld
be added the indefinitely greater ones aris-
ing from the uncertainty of Congressional
action.
Begarded in the light^bf these facts, the
significance of Mr. Sherman's theory as
an illustration of the tendency to overload
the Government is obvious. It is not a
novel illustration, unfortunately, but it is a
very conspicuous one. We call attention
to it, moreover, because the existence of
this tendency is a powerful argument in
favor of the reform in the administrative
methods of the Government whieh we have
long advocated and which is the more
necessary as the work of the Grovemment
tends to increase in importance and diffi-
culty.
TBE COmULAR AXD DIPLOiTATIC
BILL.
The Senate's amendments to the Consu-
lar and Diplomatic bill harve brought the two
booses into very distinct antagonism. Bat the
endofthesession and the end of the fiscal year
are both some months distant, and besides,
the present situation is not a new one ; the
two houses have been there before, and
even so recently as in the Forty-fourth
Congress the Senate, without party division,
persistently and successfully resisted the
mission-coupling and salary-clipping legis-
lation of the House.
In the present instance the Senate can
hardly be blamed for failing to discover in
the House debates any adequate reason for
blotting out some missions and consulates,
and refusing decently-liberal salaries to
others. The «hief part of these debates
consisted of speeches on the civil service at
home, not abroad; of discussions upon
Messrs. SkTES and Scburz, or upon the
status of Confederate mail contractors, and
of miscellaneous stump oratory. A few
speeches, notably the one of Mr. Steele,
were specifically devoted to showing why
certain consulates should be razed and
others razeed. The bill degraded, it 'wUl be
remembered, all but one of the China con-
sulates— ^Tien-Tsin, Ningpo, Fooohow, Han-
kow, .Canton> Amoy, Chin-Eiang, Swatow —
from the second to the third class), in order
to save $500 apioce on the salaries ; but
this did not satisfy Mr. Springer, who
moved to strike off altogether Hankow,
Chin-Kiang, and Ningpo, whereupon Mr.
Steels, as reported by the Congressional
Becord, said :
*' I understand that the amendment of my friend
from Illinois [Ur. Sprinfl^er] — he wUl excuse me for
addresslUK blm so familiarly— includes the striking
out of some plaee or other called ' Han(g)-Kow.' I
am la favor of that proposition, tor the reason that
I think it utterly impoaaibla we can have any
eommarelal relations with a people having such aa
onrtandish name. Tkeymnat be barbarians. It ia
had enough to hang a human being ; but the idea of
hauging *«ow Is absolutely ptepostaroos Is tliis age
of elTiHsatton. [lAughtar. ] I tUnk the amendment
Uve
Unquestionably, the members of the Com-
mittee on Appropriations who defended
their sweeping reduction of diplomatic and
consular salaries below the amounts now
fixed by law, did so on broader grounds than
that of Mr. Steele; but their gironnds were,
if we may say so, almost too broad, relating,
for the most part, less to the question
whether the present salaries ware excessive,
than to general theories about our foreign
service. Mr.Hs7rrT,forexaraple,wlR>se elab-
orate and vigorons speech was the ablest one
of the House debates, bron^t ont effectively,
by extracts frAn the annals of the Fifth
Congreig, the point that serenJ early
statesmen snniklsed that our country would
be better off Tar ha vine no Miniitera at all
in fbreiicD oonatriea. His eolleagnee,
Messrs. Sinolxtok and Blount, caught op
this idea very earnestly^ the former declar-
ing that our foreign servie^ was a mere im-
itation of royalty, quite unfit for a country
where "we have no titles M, nobility, we
have no laws of primogenitore.Vnd the son
of the lamp-lighter upon your stilts may
enter the lists with the son of the nuUion-
aire in the race for distinction ;" whilexMr.
JStAiuST added : " We are a republican pfep-
ple. We are separated from the GovernX
ments of Europe by a great sea." But it
could hardly have been expected that the
Senate would receive considerations so gen-
eral as adequate reasons for cntting down
the salaries of the Ministers to Great Brit-
ain, France, Germany, and Russia $2,500
each. The early statesmen had a natural
anxiety about European complications in the
infant days of the Republic that we in these
times can no longer feel. Besides, for states-
men of the present day to forget the vast
growth of our commerce and the changes
effected in our international relations, not
only by steam and the magnetic telegraph,
but, above all, by immigration, would show
a pious devotion to the views of the found-
ers of the Grovemment altogether too blind
to be praiseworthy. It is also noticeable
that the diplomatic service was established
and carefully fostered by the foundei^ of
the Government, whatever the theories of
some early Congressmen as to its inutility.
. Nor can we wonder that the Senate has
failed to be converted by the assertions in
the House that our foreign service has of
late years sadly deteriorated. For, if the
present appointees do not please the House,
they must have satisfied the Senate, which
confirmed them ; and the Senate could
hardly be expected to agree that the dis-
pleasure of the House had properly taken
the form of cutting down salaries or va-
cating missions. Mr. Hewitt found some-
thing—not much— to say azainst Ministers
Eassok, Lowell, Taylor, Stoughton,
and Welsh ; he might easily find, in our
past history,'les8 creditable men occupying
their positions j but in any case, what has
this to do with the question of paring down
salaries below what the present occupants
of these missions have been entitled to ex-
pect t 'While the missions exist, they
should be suitably maintained ; and pre-
sumably the Senate is not ready to adopt
Mr. Hewitt's suggestion of two Ministers
" at most " for all Europe — one at London
for all the Western Courts, and the other at
Berlin for all the Eastern, who, on tele-
graphic notice, are to " move to any Court
where they might be needed " — a sort of
itinerant Ministry, we take it, something
like that of the Methodist circuit.
The truth is that if there is any one de-
partment of Government expenditure in
which the Senate has an unusual right to
insist that existing laws shall not be altered
against^its consent, it Is this one of the for-
eign service. The House has no control
over the organization of that service ; it is
expressly given, by the Constitution, to the
President and Senate. It is ludicrous, there-
fore, to find some critics indignant at what
they consider unwarranted conduct of the
Senate in ref osing to consent to the practical
abolition, under the House Appropriation
bill, of some missions and consulates, and
to the crippling of others. The President
and Senate alone determine what foreign
service shall be established, and the former
decides what shall be dropped. Mr. Hewitt
brought this point before the House with
great force, and showed that the action of
his own committee in reporting a bill that
dropped several missions could at most
only be regarded as an expression of opin-
ion or a recommendation to the President
and Senate. On the same ground, until
the existing laws of salaries are altered, a
valid claim for services under these laws
remains, whether an annual appropriation
is made or not A deadlock on the Diplo-
matic and Consular bill, in short, soon set-
tles itself, from the peculiar attitude of the
Senate toward the foreign service.

TrrO CVLPBITS EXPOSED.
Some of the newspapers are making too
much fuss over the reported, or misreport-
ed, interview between Secretary Sherman
and two Pennsylvania Congressmen rela-
tive to the appointment of a Register of the
Treasury. One newspaper, proverbially a
scandal-monger and a gossip, asserted that
when Messrs. Thompson and White called
upon the Secretary of the Treasury and
learned that Mr. ScoriGLD had already been
appointed, they waxed wroth and used pro-
fane language. A long and animated dia-
logue is said to have followed ; and, with a
rare minuteness and attention to detail,
it is set down that when the Representa-
tives departed, one of them shook the dust
of tbe Treasury Department from his feet
and declared that this was a " hypocritical,
lying, and trifling Administration." This
romance caught the eye of Representative
Thompson, who proceeds to denounce it as
false. Mr. Thompson says that no such
language was used, and Secretary Sher-
man adds that the whole report was " with-
out truth in spirit or in form." Of course,
this latter statement is correct. The fraudu-
lent report was published In the THbune,
which is enough to settle the whole case.
An intelligent public read the correct version
in The Times.
But it seems to us that the real point in
this Vflse is lost sight of by those who have
discussed it. Of course, the Tribune blun-
dered and misrepresented. It always does.
That is its only business in life. But, ac-
cording to our own correct report, the two
Pennsylvania Congressmen were engaged in
hunting an office. That fact is admitted.
What was their success in this pnrsuit, and
how they bore themselves while so engaged,
does not so much concern the general pub-
lic. How does it happen that the Congress-
men were pressing one of Pennsylvania's
numerous favorite sons for office t How
does it happen that-Paqiisylvania has
so. firm a hold on the 'Registry of
the Treasury that it is taken for
granted that none but a citizen of
that noble State can legally countersign the
national bank-notes and greenbacks f It is
by no means certain that all this -pother
about the alleged exeited interview between
the Secretary of the TresMury and the Con-
gressmen is not invented to divert pnblie at-
tention from the fact that the Congreumen
were chasing the office. The public does
not eare whether the Pennsylvania Bepse-
sentativss 'were angry or not, or iriiether
they eallvl the Administration by hard
name*. It does eare that two Representa-
tavea have been diaeovered in thevacyaoti'
of hosting an ofllce, when it has been re-
peatedly proclaimed that the machine is
broken and that Congressmen are not al-
lowed to control ibe offieea
.This is an nnisxpected revelation to be
made tons, right in the midst of a millenaial
civil serviee reform. It has been repeate^y
announced that Senators and Represetata-
tives were to be relegated to their legitimate
duties ; that the responsibilities of filling
the offices were to b^ tranaferred to abler
and wiser hands. If Senators Gordon and
Stanley Matthews were occasionally
oaUed in as experts, this exception was held
nottp invalidate the general rule. The ma-
chine^ -^ras unquestionably broken, and we
hadpat^tie 'views of Congressmen going
abont Wa^unston on " off-days," at a loss
what to do wi^ themselves, now that they
had no offices to hunt The golden
age had coem when appointments
in the civil service were to be
made on grounds of^erit and Stanley
Matthews. And it was thought a proud
consummation of all our iiopes and labors
that, after these years of disappoiiitment, the
bad old system of appointments, should be
displaced by a simpler theory wmch^ould
include only Stanley Matthews,
Ck>RDON, and the Twenty-fifth Olio ^ej
ment Tet, right in the midst of our osn^
gratulations over this reform, we are treat
to a glimpse of two Pennsylvania Congress-
men rambling abont the Treasury Depart-
ment and cooling their heels in the Presi-
dent's ante-chamber, trying to get an office
for a favorite sou.
It is alleged, 'with how much truth we do
not know, that the President eonntenanoed
this perversion of the well-known rules of
the civil service by listening to the argu-
ments of the Congresmen. It is also said
that he actually made a memorandum of
what they said. One account states that
the President " smiled and beamed "
while he was doing this. But this lacks
confirmation It is highly improbable tiiat an
officer who has so pointedly given his views
as to what constitutes a reformed civil
service would be guilty of levity like this. Let
us rather believe that the President's smiles
were provoked by his reflection that he was
only luring the Pennsylvanians to their own
confusion. The memoranda which they
fondly thought related to their " man "
were only short-hand notes of cert^n do-
mestic matters ; and when the Congressmen
thought he was writing down Sullivan a
smart man in the primaries, he 'was only
maldng a memorandum about early aspara-
gus, and the nec^sity for having a roof put
over the well in the back-yard. But the
unregenerate Representatives from Penn-
sylvania have met 'with their reward. They
have been detected mthe very act of recom-
mending a man to office after it has been
repeatedly announced^ that such nefarious
goings-on would not be tolerated. On the
whole, this particular pair of sinners have
been justly punished.
SHERMAN'S LETTER.
A person! calling himself by the combined
Christian and heathen name of William
Tecumsee Sherman, and glorying in the
ill-gotten title of General, has recently pub-
lished a letter which deserves the severest
condemnation.
This man Sherman owes his notoriety to a
long career of crime and outrage. During
the war waged by the Lincoln Administra-
tion upon our Southern brethren, he was a
prominent leader of Federal mercenaries.
For a period of several years he was
onopen advocate of, and actor in,
the atrocious outrage of employing Fed-
eral troops in interfering with the local
affairs of the Southern States. In Tennes-
see, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, and the
CaroUnas, he thwarted the will of the peo-
ple and subjected them to the authority of
the Washington Government He was not
merely a carpet-bagger, but not content
with owning a carpet-bag, he went to the
extreme length of a valise, in which he car-
ried the greater part of his property. His
rade and violent condact gave great pain to
the white population of the South. He not
only seized upon provisions for his merce-
nary followers 'without paying for them, but
when the justly exasperated Southern breth-
ren attacked him with arms, instead of yield-
ing to their demands, he actually resisted
them, and in many cases shed the best blood
of the South. Since the close of the war he
has commanded the entire Federal Army,
and has rolled from six to twelve times per
day in luxury. Instead of being punished
for his crimes, he has been rewarded by a
Republican Congress with honors and
wealth, and has become so intolerably vain
that instead of concealing himself and en-
deavoring to induce the public to forget his
existence, he writes letters alluding in the
most indecent way to the crimes against the
South in which he took an active part, and
of which a truly good Administration has at
last publicly repented. It is time that this
person should be taoght that he lives in an
era of conciliation, and that the more he
and persons like him keep themselves out of
sight the better. We are now striving to
atone for the crime of invading the South,
and to restore to our Southern krethren
their natural right of ruling the nation, and
this man Sherman ought to be told that his
continued existence is a reproach to every
conciliatory patriot.
In the letter to which reference has been
made Sherman betrays his criminal in-
stincts by sneering at a good and great man
because, though nominally a Colonel in the
Federal Army, he staid at the rear during
the civil 'war, and acted as ProvOst Marshal,
Sutler, and Judge Advocate. In other words,
Col. DoNN Piatt did not imbrue his hands
in Southern blood ; and for this he incurs
the contempt of the wicked Sherman. It
would be sufficiently disgu8ting>to thus sneer
at a humane patriot were the latter merely
a private citizen, but when we remember
thatDoNN Piatt is the editor of a news-
paper, an attack upon him is next door to
blasphemy. Having called President Hates
all sorts of bad names, and having proposed
to assassinate him, Mr. Piatt has, of
course, gained the entire confidence and re-
spect of the President, and tUs fact ought
alone to have exempted hihi 'from Sher-
man's sneers. The Prasideat is Sheucan's
superior officer, and it is treating him with
disrespect to attack a noisy Demoorat Had
Sherman posaessed any delieaoy whatever,
he would have lavished his abuse upon soma
one of the men who made Mr. Hayes Presi-
dent, and thns avoided grieving onr eOel-
l«ot chief .magistrate.
iesesaeers at CoL Doinr Platt
howevwr, only-incidental. The chief pw-
pose of Sherman's letter waa to protest
against the rediietion of the Army to twenty
thousand men, and against cutting the pay
of Army officers. He pretends that, if the
Amty Is reduced, large parts of our Western
territmy innst be abandoned to hostile In-
dians. Of coarse, this is a mere pretense.
He wants ialarge Army so that he may use it
to gratify hn fiendish instincts by slaughter-
ing the people as the troops slaughtered the
so-called " strikers" last July, and for other
purposes as nefarions as they are inscru-
table. 'Helmows that the South haa reason
to dislike the Army, and that it 'wonld be a
conciliatory measure were the Army to be
reduced to insignificance, and were offioera
like himself, who took part in the civil 'war.
tobestarvedont of the service. Werehea
patriojv, he 'would gladly do everything that
would gratify the prejudices of our Southern
brethren ; but, being a bad, unfeeling man,
he cares nothing for their delicate sensibili-
ties. ^ His pay and that of all the other offi-
cers 'who shed Southern blood should be cut
down, to about $450 per year, thus com-
pelling them to resign their commissions.
Their places could afterward be filled
either trith Southern soldiers who are anx-
ious to' be conciliated or by men who had
won the sympathies of the President by
.^ing cashiered from the Federal Army;
\ii>ul the present rates of pay could then be
restored. . But this, of oonise, would not
plea^e^e surviving mercenaries of Lincoln,
who aletnally have the shamelessness to glory-
in their .^srimes, and to maintain that they
dcseirve reS^rds rather than punishment
If CoL DoNit Piatt is not otherwise oc-
cupied, he woud do well to assassinate
Sherman 'withoutvdelay ; and there is no
doubt that were he to creep upon him from
behind and brain himNrith a huge club, the
exploit wonld involve sb,little danger as to
be quite within the rang^. of CoL Piatt's
ability. Everybody perceives that the ex-
istence of Sherman at this period of un-
conditional Bur — that is to say, of concilia-
tion, is a loathsome anachronism. He
might, perhaps, be permitted to live if he
would resign his commission and exile him-
self to Australia ; but he should be sternly
taught that no brutal hireling of the Lin-
coln Administration can be allowed to go
on 'writing letters sneering at CoL Piatt,
opposing the disbandment of the Army, and
reminding our Southern brethren of the
sufferings inflicted upon them by Federal
troops. /

POLITICS AND POUTICUNS.
There is a curious relation between the
vital statistics of this City for the past
three months and those for the correspond-
ing quarter of last year which are given by
us this morning. "The deaths are reporteii
at 6,679, an increase of 693, or llig per^
cent; the births at 6,680 — almost exactly
equaling the deaths — an increase over last
year of 7 per cent; and the marriages at
1,744, also an increase of about 8 per
cent The largest increase in the mortality
occurred in February, which, in spite of its
being three days shorter than either of the
other months, shows an increase in deaths
of 287, or more than 15 per cent Yet our
late February was generally regarded as
one of the mildest and most enjoyable that
the City has experienced in many years.

Washikoiok, Saturday, March 30, 187S.
The great contested ease of Dean against
Field was decided just as every looker-on in
this political 'Vienna expected. If, as says the
provarii, "heaven and earth strive in vain
against a fool," doubly vain ai« all atxnggiea
against a Damoeiatic majority bent en getting
even with ita enemiea. Hr. Cox of Ohio, made
a last eloquent but hopeless, protest against an
inevitable, a predestined, preordained, foregon*
eoaelnslon, in the course of whieh he nid :
"Now, if ever, the question ia presented to
geatiemen upon the other aide of this
Chamber, whether any ease can pos-
sibly arise In which arguments from
eonsisteney. fairness, and justice shall
make them admit that anybody returned as a
Bepubllcan is entitled to a seat upon this floor—
if it ia contested." Tbe clear, reasonable, and
upright mind of J. D. Cox saw things in this
light and summed up the case in favor of
Field, the dispossessed ; but to our astpnish-
ment Mr. Batier went for falm, in another
sense, and voted against him. Still, we, Mr.
Butier'sanxioas friends, are glad to see bimshow-
tng any signs of life nowadaya — showing fight
even in a mild way. Somehow, sinoe the un-
timely and uncivil-serviceable taking off of his
man Simmons, when we looked for a funeral
oration which would have thrown Hare An-
tony'a Into the ahade, and did not bear it, some
dadaied that Butler himself must be de-
funct and that it was his own funeral
that waa in order. One morning when
I saw him in his place, looking strangely quies-
ent, mute and harmless, I was reminded of
the story of the Taukee old lady who went to
tiie funeral of an old nelghtMH- to pay a first
tribute of respect The deceased for 40 yeara
had made things lively in those parts — ^forced
pe(q;>le right and left far and near, to " stand
round "—is short he had been a terrible fellow
for fight. A mong that gathering of solemn-look-
ing gentiemen at his obsequies there were few
who had not suffered at his hands, been cut,,
hacked, kteked, and braised by him, and his
own stalwart person, now august in death, was
not onmarrad by sears and other tokens
of conflict She of whom I have spoken
was not a spiteful or uncharitable old
lady — she waa a good, benevolent. Chris-
tian old lady — oneafter my own heart; she did
notexolt over their once tmenlent neighbor,
but looking down, tipon him, said, with
a sort of placid wonder, "WeU, anyhow
he makes a real quiet sort of a corpse,
doesn't he f" If the action of Mr. Butier in this
case waa incomprehensible, the course of certain
Democrats who areued and voted for Mr. Field
was a wonder and a delight. Ln us all do
honorto those honorable men who stood by their
honest convictions in spite of partisan preju-
dices, partydesnandr, and Senatorial dragoon-
ing— void Potter, Hir'oert, Hartridge, Walsh,
Stenger, Cutter, and Bea. Jones, of Alabama,
voted like a littie man on Wednesday, but catch-
ing the eye of Speaker Randall fixed on
him reproachfully, he went out into
the cloak-room and wept bitterly. The
next day he announced his repentance, the fact
that he was " in under eonvietion," as the
Hethodiats used to say, aad 'was received back
into the fold with exceeding great joy and a
burst Of applause, which the virtuous Speaker
sternly repressed. But the Democrats gave iu
a fair miaHeA« for Mr. Butler in Mr. Pottei^-a
noble Roland for our Oliver.
•* Troth, they made a pretty pair."
Some two weeks ago Mr. Fetter made a fin*
little speech on this case, in which he said,
among other sensible, manly things :
" I served in three Republican Congreasea. I saw
tbd great abuses perpetrated in election cases by tha
votea of eeotleznen on the other side — abuses that
made my blood boil th^n, and that still excite my in-
dignation when I think of them. But I do not pro-
pose to get even with tbe Republicans by doing in-
justice bi election case* in our turn now; or to do
anythinz else in these cases than I believe to be exact
lastice. They are judicial eaaea, and tbey ought to
be determined Judirially."
Oh that the Democratic Party were as clay ia
the hands a( this Potter, that he might mold it
into something nobler and finer than we aee
to-day— into " vessels unto honor," of the grand,
antique form, strong yet symmetrical, fit to
bold the new wine of liberty for the wedding
feast of humanity and law. Selah !
The California contested election ease, in
which Pacheco lost, waa a trial to me at the
time. 1 am not well acquainted with Gov.
Pacheco, hut I know he is eminently a gentie-
man, and gentiemen are not yet in Washing-
ton "as thick as toads after a shower," or as
used to be Brigadier-Oeoerals after a Federal
victory. He is of patiician blood, of pure, proud
old CastiUan stock. In Robertson's Bittory o1
the Emperor Charles V. I find an interest-
ing anecdote of a Paeheeo of the olden
time, the brave Harquia Yillena: Charles,
Duke of Baorbon. Lord High Constable of
France, and the ablest General of King Francis
L, deaerted his King and country and entered
the serriee of tbe'r most powerful enemy, the
Emperor Charles V. After the battie of Pavia.
in whieh Frmne'ts was defeated and taken pris-
oner, the Duke of Boorhon hastened to the
Imperial Court at Toledo to demand tbe prom-
ised reward for his treachery. Charles ro-
ceived him with creat ceremony and honor, and
asked tbe Harquis of 'Villena to permit him to
reside at his palace while the court should re-
mainatToledo. The Marquis replied that he could
I ot refuse to gratify hissovereign in that request
but added that the Emperor must not be sur-
prised it the moment tbe Constable departed,
he should bum to to the ground " a house
which, having been polluted by the presence of
a traitor, became an unfit habitation for a man
of honor."
It may be that something of this intolerant
uncompromising, uneonciliating spirit toward
treason and traitors lives and shows itself in a
remote descendant, and that^s whaM the matter
with Bomaldo Pacheco. I have nothing to say
against the snecesaful contestant. Peter 'Wlggih-
ton. He may be a' Spanish Hidalgo, for aU I
know, though his name would seem to deny "the
soft Imoeaehment"
Next to these election eases to disturb and vex
us is the mlsehievous disposition of Congress to
tinker with everything in the other depart-
ments of Qovemment — to cut down salaries
right and left— everybody's salary but their
own — to cut off Andiiora, to make ducks and
drakes of long-establiahed official aystems and
orders. Callow politicians from the banks of.
the Wabaah or the wilds of A rksnsas feel them-
selves perfectiy eompetant to reorganise'
departments planned by the 'wisdom of
■ueh statesmen as Hamilton and Jefferson
and approved by sneh Ezeeittives as Monroe,
Madison, Adama, and Jaekson. Theae attempts
and the plana for the cutting down of tb« Army
pieparatoiy' to euttmg it up, root and biBDch —
measures of measurelass Ingratitude and Im-
poltey— kept out of sight in committee toonu
most of the tima, but every now and than com-
ing up to blow in one home or the other— all
these things iaetina ma to think that aemething

Intimation of it throagh a spiritual telephone,
I think 1 will make a small Innch party—

I wonld ask Jfr. Blaine, because we were friends

Silary Herbert, most genial of Democrats, and
Potter, of course, and Davis of California —
but, on reflection, not Garfield. He and Mr.
Stanley Matthews and all the other blessed con-
eiliators are prepared to go. I woul 1 try to
have our Bacon, and Hooker, principally for his
wife's sake, and I would suggest to Mr. Ran-
dall, priuripaliy for his own sake, to put
Springer in the chair and come along too. 1
would certainly invite Mr. Spofford, our won-
derful Librarian, but that I believe he would
prefer to go down with his books. I shunid
like to include a few more of our boys, but I
have already exceededmy limit, and cliampafme
la a costly necessity. I think, on the whole, if
those I have mentioned come to my kettledrum
the earthquake may proceed.
1 fear this will be set down as "foolish jesting,
which is not convenient. " It is but a small
effort, however. Tour " funny man" gets hold
of all the heavy contracts. Now, I had a good
thing thongfat out in the silent, solemn watches
of the night, when good thoughts come to one,
tf ever, on the telephone and its kin-
dred inventions ; but that fellow antici-
pated me by bis article of March 25,
and only an idea or two of those midnight mtis-
Ings have remained with me. How wonderful,
I uiought, it would be when everybody or every
family would open a phonograph and be able to
store away and lock up the pleasant voices, the
laughter, the songs, and the wild, dreamy love-
talk of childhood and youth for the sad and pro-
saic season of middle age ur old age — in short, to
lav down the sweet things of life's Summer for
V^inter use. What a new power it wotild give
to woman 1 Armed with one of these tremen-
dous iostmments, heavily charged with
vows, prayers, pet names, and acrostics —
words of homage, of tenderness, of adoraiion,
the could calmly confront a careless, an in-
constant, an obdurate husband, and fire into
him round after round. It were a thousand
times better than the most formidable package
^ old love letters, smelling of dried rosebuds
and tied with a blue ribbon. He might refuse
to read them, or even to listen to choice extracts
read by her. but no man ever gets tired of the
sound of his own voice. I dare say now, Mr.
Blaine would sit quiet as a lamb, listening to
one of hia own campaign Hayes-indoraing
speeches, given in his own dulcet Senatorial
tones, or Mr. Stephens to the phonographic
gjiost of his Miliedgeville anti-secession argu-
ment.
-The great Whitaker speech of Mr. Howe
created a genuine sensation here. We seemed
to have another Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
visitation, there wa^ so much Howe ! Huwe-ing
about the streets. It wa-s — there is no use in
denying it — a powerful speech, though not most
powerful, I tunk. where the animus was most
oersonaL Its arraignment of the Southern
Democracy, of Southemism, waa nnanswei^
able. The history of the demands, aggres-
sions, tyrannous exactions, and outrages
of the old Slave-power was never
more clearly and unflinchingly related,
but what lesson will be drawn from it for the
guidance of the politicians of this time ?
Those issues seem to them about as dead as the
mummies of old Thebes, or the hopes of Polish
Independence, or Mr. Tilden's chances for the
Presidency, or the idea of a civil service reform.
In his arraignment of the policy of the Admin-
istration lUj. Howe dealt with measures as
thoroughly accompUabed, as irremediable as the
Drift period. It was a drift period of itself,
that fatal time of indecision, of
tdnt-heartedness, of indefinable fear, of
lax letting-go, of virtual admission ot weakness.
If not of wickedness, as a party— the, in brief,
demoralization which followed the inangura-
tion of President Hayes. Then was the accepted
time when gentlemen wtto are now '• freeing
their minds." telling family secrets, calling
their brothers names, and making is all un-
somfortable, should have protested against the
policy It seems they disapproved— protested
with all their powers of intellect and soul ; with
all the weight of solemn judgment ; with all
the passion of patriotic oonTiction. Now, it is
too late. _ „ „'
The special arraignment of Secretary Schurz
It not so strong, becatjse it is Inconsistent, if
not altogether unjust. "Consistency is a jew-
el " not always found adorning the immaculate
jhirt-front of the most immaculate statesman.
The feeling which animated that portion of the
speech was most savagely bitter. I was sorry,
for I like Mr. Howe with an old liMng— a
tenacious thing with me. St. Paul said to an-
other Tlmoth V : " If a man strive for masteries,
yet is he not crowned, except he strive law-
fully " Nothing is lawfuUln the best sense,
which is not just., -That the spirit of the dis-
singuished Senator was not partisan, but per-
gonal, it proved by the fact that in
reviewing the President's Cabinet appointr
menu he takes no exception -to Mr. Evarts.
me of Andrew Johnson's Cabinet officers and
ul» chief legal counselor, and that he handles
most tenderly Mr. Key, the Postm-atei-General.
and then proceeds to handle, " WTthout mit-
tens," another Cabinet officer of Mr, Hayes.
I waa about to quote from the Senator's re-
markable estimate and summing-up of the char-
acter and the life of Carl Schurz, but I cannot
bring mvself to reproduce it. The sketch is in
little, and the lines are bitten in with the vit-
riol and concentrated lye of sarcasm and era-
tempt. I sincerely hope that Mr. Howe faith-
fnUy presented this estimate a year ago in ex-
ecutive session, when the President sent in the
name of so objectionable a person for the
Interior Department, eyed though it was then
t»sh in the minds of all men that the influMce
of the eloquent German with Germans had
lamethlng to do with our Republican victory—
"sut'to th^"harge I made of Inconmstency. I

Wagner, applied to by the Directors of the
Berlin Opera-house for permission to perform the

be mounted. The Berlin Director has replied that
the game is hardly worth the candle. _
MM. Edmond Membr^ and Adolnhe Nibelle,
delegates from the French Socletj- of Mnsieal Com-
posers, were lately received in andlenoe by the Duke
d'Aadlffret-Pasquier. President of the Senate. The
purpose of the visit was the advocacy of the exist-
ence in Paris of a Th^tre Lyriqne. The Dnke ex-
Sressed himself in favor of the demand, and will, it
I said, do all in his power to carry oat the desire of
the society.
/•Joseph Balsamo," Dumas* new play just
nrodaced at the Odeon Theatre, in Paris, has proved
nnsaccessfnl. Oar Paris eorresoondent writes on
the subject of its performance : " The wonderful
way the piece Is put upon the stnee is the subject of
general remark. The costumes of Leonide I^eblanc,
who plays the r6le of Mm4. Dubarry, exceed any-
thing ever before seen u: on the stage. Report savs
that a Prince of royal blood, now a Qeneral in the
French Army, pays the bills. The fan alone cost
near 20,000 francs, and Mme. Leblane had 300.000
franca' worth of diamonds on her dresa."

Mr. Gye has confidence lu her ability is proved
by the fact that she has been stadyhig at
Hilni for n«w)y two vean nt Mr. Gye 'a -expen"*.
Mile, de Hit! is a native of Vienna, and has sang
smnll parts at the opera there, and It is said that she
waa selected by Herr Wa^er as one of the artlsU for
Bayrenth, an honor which she declined.
The ** Droit des Pauvres " is a tax imposed
uDon the managers of the Paris opera-houses and
theatres by which they are compelled to pay 10 per
cent, of their gross receipts for the benefit of the
poor. The tax has always been a grievance with
managers, for it has freqnsntly happened that the
poor tax has to be paid although the
house had been kept open at a loss. It
is now, however, proposed to tax the net
instead. of the eross receipts. The plan to be
adopted is a simple one. The places of amusement
are divided into five classes, and from $100 to $500
per night, according to the claaa of the house, la al-
lowed for expenses. This sum will be deducted
from the gross receipts, and on the balance 12 per
cent, is to be pnid. The proposal baa, however, not
been received with unmixed satisfaction by the Paris
manacers, who declare that the sum to be allowed
for expenses is insnflSeient.
Offenbach's new Opera bonlTe. "Maitre P^ro-
nllla." Has been produced at the BouiZes Parialens,
but it seems hardlv worihy of very great attention.
The plot is simple' almost^o baldness. There is a
young girl who is compelled by her aunt to marry an
old man; and there is. of eoarse. a younff lover who

DECISION IN MRS. OAINEB' FATOR.

A CBOWS OP PICTURS8— COMPARISON WITH
THB "aUEBICAK artists" — STnDIES
TSRStJS ^CTCBESr-THS OLD AKD KEW
OEMEBATIOlt OT PAINTKRS.
Saturday was Tarnishing day for the ex-
hibitor, of paiBting. at the new ezpoattion jiut
about to be made in the- galleries ot the Na-
tional Aeadetn^ Only artists are nipposed to
obtain admittance on mich days, hat the gen-
eral features of the exhibit' ar« quickly known
to the outside irorid. Without waiting, there-
fore, till this eTeoinjc, which i. the regular re-
ception nl^t for aitlrt. and member, of the
pren, Mme indication can be made re-
specting the painter, who are certainly
to he found repreunted. The room, are
very full, the picture, crowd up to-
ward the eeQing, and. In the eorii^'
dor, overflow on to the walls of the .taircase.
Paintings have invaded the North-wert Room,
usually given over to sculpture, and there, too,
the diylights are almost i«aehed. The display
will be 'brUllant, but whether it be a bril-
liancy in istrength of harmonious color is
qnite another thing. There will be a good
degree of variety, yet the number of large, im-
portant pictures, before which the public
masses in gaping crowds, will he found com-
paratively small. The tendency seeme to be
toward less ambitious picture, and more of
them.
Among the older painters who are certainly
represented is Daniel Suntington. He has
several portraits, one of them being ot Dr. Pot-
ter, of Grace Church. But for the most part
the older men fleht shy ot the exhibition, and
seem disposed to yield room willingly to younger
and bolder spirits. The veteran painter, how-
ever, who was Professor of Art at West Point
for to many years— Prof. Weir— comes in again
with a large eanvast. Then there is Eastman
Johiiwn, .who has sent several pictures; W. T.
Bichards, George H. Hall, Winslow Homer, and
many more who used tp prop the honor of the
old exhibitions with pictures of more or
less taste and vigorousness. Foreigners
will hot be wanting to this show. Sev-
eral Russian painters have specimens ot their
craft, and, at least, one Frenchman is repre-
sented. This is Henner, who is considereu a
shining light in Paris, and asks for his por-
traits sums of money qnite in keeping with his
fame. The portrait which introduces him to an
American public is very expressive, most beau-
tifully, tenderly finished, and yet not endowed
with that hopeless quality which may be
termed the " hard finish." There are also sev-
eral new names to appear on the catalogue,
which, from their spelling, appear to bel .ng to
Spaniards or Cubans.
Among the younger fry ot painters — among
those who are to wrest. If 'they can, the glories
of the future ot American art from all competi-
tors hitherto in that direction aspiring — will be
found a number of those i^presented at the
little exhibition ot the Society of American Ar-
tists at the Kurtz Gallery. This speaks veil for
their Industry, and also means that the com-
mittee of the National Academy which accepts
pictures has not allowed itself to be actuated by
feelings of resentment at the opposition move-
ment among the younger painters. . Walter
Shirlaw, the President of that society, has sev-
eral paintings accepted; Wyatt Eaton one
or more, and various other members ot
the same vigorous school have not applied
for recognition in vain. William Chase has
a fine and taking canvas ; J. Alden Weir a large
portrait ; and landscape!:, land and marine, hy
Thomas lloran and Robert Minor, will be
noticed in position. John La Farge has three
small paintings which will raise much question
among his £lmirers sud non-admirers, the
opinions in every case being likely to prove ex-
treme either one way or the other. Homer
Martin, who has won the reputation
ot having some thought behind bis brush-work
is not entirely absent, while George lones will
show in each room one or more of his brilliant
landscapes that call for recaanition anoag the
crowd of pictures in quieter tones. Yoimger
painters, like NicoU, Quartley, and Satterlee.
nave been improving the shining hour to grow
in knowledge of the handling ot paint and of
the limits ot arc J. S. Brown will
exhibit several pictures, among them a marine
piece having for central' interest the jolly-boat
of a coasting vessel filled with 'longshore sail-
ors with pronounced New-England faces. The
Beards are industrious artists, who uldom fail
to put in an appearance at Academyexhiljitions,
in spite of no little adverse criticism on the part
of the papers. The most poptilar of the
famUy exhibits this year a picture of
dogs, in which a greyhound plsrs the
r61e of Don Quixote, and a pug of.
Sancho Pania. They have doggy clothes about
them, and sit looking at each other before a
mass of old armor and bric-ik-brac which forms
the backgronnd. Mrs. H. A. Loop is an equally
assiduous but much more recent contributor.
She has an unusual number of pictures conspic-
uously hung. They are -remarkable for a cer-
tain romantic tendency and an utter inability
to paint flesh ; this is all the more painful as
there is much flesh of an unreal variety in each
canvas.
The verdict passed upon this exhibition is
likely to be far from unanimous. Those who
groaned over the biul painting, bad taste, and
bad hanging of former exhibitions may readily
jump to the conclusion that it shows no im-
provement on earlier ventures. Those, on the
other band, who were happy in the ability to
admire the average work of our Academicians
may readily tall to congratulating themselves
that it has much the air of the old shows.
There is stjll enough of those broad, arrogant
canvases on the line iir which weak artists seem
to be trying for additional elbow-room wherein
to publish more loudly their own inanity. But
now and then comes a picture which is really
good. It may not be large, but it is modest.
It may not be fiery in color, but it aims at some
object of technical or popular interest within
sensible bonnda For this leawn the collection
ought to please everybody, both the Philistines
and the Lord's annointed, both conservatives
and liberals, both the prejudiced and the eman-
cipated. Yet it Is not true that everybody can
be pleased by the system, If system there has
been, which appears to have governed the ac-
ceptance ot pictures. The plan ot taking every-
thing that oners, up to the extreme limits of the
galleries, is one which pleases a great many
people, including the happy artists and their
immediate knots of frieatia Bat there is still
left a fastidious band which finds the pleasure
derived from one or two good pictures ruined
by the near presence of five or six bod. To such
as these the new exhibition will be anything but
pleasure-giving. Lyt people of this stamp ought
to be frowned down. It is enough that good
pictures have not been absolutely rejected.
Ulterior criticism beyond that point becomes
mere carping and should be promptly snubbed.
This brings the inquiry in its train: How
does the new Academy compare with the recent
exhibition at the Kurtz Gallery 1 There seems
no need ot changing the opinion heretofore ex-
pressed regarding that little collection. It still
remains the best which has yet been made of
work exclusively American. Its average ex-
cellence is far higher, notwithstanding the
presence of K> many pictures which could be
termed studies only. The average at the Acad-
emy is necewarily dragged down by a number
of inartistic productions, although there are
many painters represented who attempt and ex-
ecute actual adult pictures — not mere atud-
ies. It Is quite proper and to bs ex-
pected, however, that the public should
take more interest in full-grown work,
even though 'inferior, than in promises
tor the future. The public very reasonably
demands. What have yon to say ? not How axe
you going about vour say I The technical «ipe-
riotlty of one manner of working over another
is not dear enough to weigh anything in the
popular balance. Hence, the pictures which,
for instance, Walter Shirlaw exhibits here may
be admired by other artists for their handling;
but they have very little to say to the public.
One consist, of a portrait of himself, the other
of a partially nude boy pulling bacx on a dog
which is in leash. The former is naturally of
very moderate Intetest to the public ; the latter
has little meaning, except as a study. It tell.
no ttory. The boy with a breech-clout is not
even a young hunter ot some tropical land hold-
ing back a dog ot chase. His dog is a bull-dog,
and appears to be straining to reach water in
order to drkik. It must be considered a mere
study of the figtire, to which dog, water, and
rising 'baeltKroand have been added to give a
meaning. Hence, there is no real "inward-
ness" to the pictiTO. This coldness is a trifle to
those who value highest of all the methods of
work by which the picture i. finished ; but it U

on the present condition of art in America

Don Hamilton Fish, Jr., opeiied the proceed-
ings of the Assembly with a speech, the burden of
which Was an indignant denial of ati intimation that
he had been in any way connected with the combina-
tion by which Insurance Superintendent Smyth had
been whitewasffcd, as intimated in a dispatch to Tke
Tnczs, of your City. The serionshess of the charge
was such that every one hopes that Mr. Fish will , be
able to provo himself innocent,' although the cir-
cumstances surrounding tho proceediugs alluded to
by the correspondent are of such a Fish-y character
that the UU son of Putnam will have to make
out a pretty clear ease to satisfy the majority of
those who have watched the proceedings in eonaee.
tion with this ease. Had the correspondent said that
the peculiar movements in connection with the Blee-
tive Ckintroller's bill, on the moraing when the vote
in the Sm.th case was taken, was open to the sus-
picion of an arrangement with Tammany Hall,
whereby a bargain had been made of some Idnd, it is
very questionable whether Mr. Fish would have risen
to a question of privilege. But he has made, as Mr.
Fish expressed it a specific charge, and as that is one
of those things it is very hard to prove, he nb doubt
thinks it a good opportunity to dlseil>line those rep-
resentatives of the press who he thinks are in the
habit of criticising too freely the actions of the honor-
able gentlemen in the Legislstnre. The whole matter
was referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions, with Instruetlone to Investigate is to the truth
of the charge, and It is hoped that Mr. Fish will be
able to show that he was not In the unholy aliiancs.
That he is the man at the wheel In all schemes af-
fecting the tMilitical p-itronase of the City of New-
York, has been azain and again allezed, and it will
next be in order for him to discipline the remaining
eonespondents who have been guilty of this oHeuse.
It may be Impossible to show his direct connection
with the combination by which Mr. Smyth escaped,
but that such a combination existed is the ueariy
tinanimous verdict of all who have watched the pro-
ceedings here. .As the unique Nelson, of Rockland,
expressed it, it is the only case on record, with one ex-
ception, where a man who had confessed himself and
been proved guilty of taldne what did not belong to
him and dividing with his friends, had been told by
the Jury that he was a liar. The exception was in
the famous ease where the exonerated culprit ac-
counted for the result by the announcement that tue
jury had some of the pork.
From the Aibany Corretpondenee itf The World.
In his remarks supporting the resolution, }lr.
Fish in reality pretty much made an end of all neces-
sity of calling witnesses by himself admitting in sub-
stance all the facts directly chared sAVe one, and
that one ImmaterioL The facts, which are indls-
pntable, are these : It was the gossip of the hotels
the night before the vote in the t>enate that this bill
was to he held in terrorem over the Tammany i}ena-
tOTS. Mr. Pish obtained a reiwrt from the committee
the next morning. Neither Mr. Brooks (Tammany)
nor Mr. Holahan (Tammany) was present at the
committee meeting. When the Assembly met,Mr.Fish
made the report. About half an honr elapsed. Then
the bill was recommitted. It was recommitted, Mr.
Fish says, at the request of Mr. Holahan and Mr.
Brooks. The correspondent, on the other hand,
charged an interchange of messages with the Tam-
many Senators in the interval.
'Whatever the investigation in this partlctilar ea^e
may show, this Is eert^u: that Superintendent
Smyth's especial champion declared wittfeas bad
been examined by tne Senate, tbitt Smyth wonld be
acquitted, and would have 19 votes. It was just as
publ'cly asserted by the ssime men that a bargain
affecting legislation for New.Vork Citv had been
made with 'Tammiiny, and that the voteii ot the three
Tammauy Senators wonld be given in favor of Mr,
Smyth. With this slatemem daily and hourly re-
peated daring the trial by the friends of the Super-
intendent, how could anybody rcHist the inference
that Mr. Fish's operations with the Controllership
bill were a part of the programme to hold those
Senaton ? The indignation which the consummation
of the flrat part of this alleged bargain has created in
all parts of the State has already bad snch effect that
even those who had been freely admitting the alli-
ance, and conuratnlating themselves thereon as on a
political stroke, are making haste to deny their own
words. This wholesome, thoneh tardy, t«Trorof the
pooalar wrath explains the effort uow making to slip
out under cover of an effort to force people who had
nothing to do with the alleged bargain into an exam-
ination intended to show that it was never made !
?ttt OS it is. the Republicans, after having secnred
ammany's services, will not be a'ole to carrv out
their part of the compact. Public opinion Is so
aronsed against them 'that th-ywiil now. in self,
defense, be compelled to co even further acatnst
Tammanr s wishes in their legisl.ntion for the City of
New- York than they have heretofore at anytime pro-
posed to do.

The dividends payable in Boston in April
aggregate $4,6IX>,597, of which the banks pay
$1,275,000. The bank dividends are the poorest
ever recorded. Of the 63 banks in the city, two
pay 5 per ceut., two 4is per cent., five 4 per cent,
fonr 3I3 per cent., 13 3 per cent., one 3 per cent.,
quarterly, 12 21s percent., 14 2 per cent., and 12
pass (besides one new and one in liquidation,) making
an average of 2.34 per cent. The changes
from October lost are as follows ; Tbe

same' can be said of other banks paufing.
TBE WBEAT CROP OF MIOBIGAN.
The Detroit Pott ot March 29 prints reports
from all parts of Michigan in regard to the present
condition and prospects ot the wheat etop and the
estimates of the amount of wheat in fanners' hands
which can be relied up n to supply the wants of the
market tmtll another liarvest, and says: "A more
satisfactory showing for the interests both of pro-
ducers and the trade generally could not te asked or
expected. Thepresentprospectstor Michigan wheat
were probably never equaled in any former year at
this date. Toe Winter has been eminently a favora-
ble one for tbe crop ; it could not have been more
so had a mantle of snow fallen on Dec. 1 and re-
mained imtH now. The season has been mild and
propitious. The Fall growth was a good one and
the Winter has hardly interrupted it ; in fact, the
plant, as a rule, to-day has a better root and a
stronger stock than on Dec 1. The cold weathar of the
past weekhos been rather favorSble than otherwise for
the crop, in that it tends to retard uuaue forward-
ness, for aqtiiek and growing Spring might promote
the maturing of straw at the expense of the berry,
and give ua, after all, a poor or an ordinary harvest,
"To-day, however, the promise of the JarKCst wheat
iiarvest ever gathered iu Michigan could not be im-
proved. As to tbe quantity of wheat still In farmers'
hands, there can be no doubt but tt exceeds that of
any former year at this date. Thirty.slx corresiwnd-
enta, after careful inquiry among the best informed,
estimate the amount of the crop of 1876-7, yet un-
solQ, at from 25 to 40 per cent., and in 11 other
localities It Is placed at 50 per cent, or over. Some
of these views may be exaggerated, yet if only a
quarter of the immense yield of lost season is stlU
available for the wants of the market, it is a much
larger amount than was ever before held at this sea-
son of the year. We congratulate the people of
Mkblgan 00 tbe present agneunural outlook.''^

Mr. TUden'3 income-tax suit» like the ghost
of £4mq%to, will not down. The prosecatlon of ilie
ease is still maintained by the proper atuthorltiv of
the United States, who are. boweTer, It ooj^c to- be
nmembered. all Radicals from the Jndge to the at-
torney, and hence presam»b1y under political In-
fluence, to a greater or less exter.t. But there Is one
teatnre of the eaae for walRh the representatlTet of
tbe Goremment are not responsible, and which, we
are fraitk to say, Ja not calcoiaced to make a favora-
ble impresiion on the pnbHe mind. The defense of
Mr. Tilden, so far as we are able to make out, is
based exclufively on technieal sroands. There la
no nretense at all that the tax was paid
as the law required — so much per cent, on so
much annual receipts over and above annoal
exemption!!. "Wo wish Mr. Tilden wonld or conId
put bis rindication oa a higher claim than that of
the statute of UmitatioDR or ether evasion based on
the letteaoand neglectful of /he spirit of the law's re-
quirement. A man oceupyiog his position, whoae
trial involves everything thnt is dearest, not only to
human pride, bat to the ambition of public distinc-
tion, ought to be able to say something better In his
defence at law than that this or that provision
seemed to afford opportunity fnr defrauding theGov-
emment of its lawful dues- We do not know, how-
ever, whether we have any neht to quarrel with
Mr. Tilden for this reason. He is bat troetohis
own nature, as every man unconsc'.ously Is. I^jnor-
iuKthe question of pemonal honesty, we consider
Mr. Tilden jost the narrow and literal kind of man
whose ideas of duty would he whoUy satisfied If
he could find any way of fulfllUng the text and
evading the pnrDOxe- of uu obligation. Many circum-
stances have combined to render Mr. Tilden thatsort
of unlovable and mechanical beine. He has never
married. He has had nil the enjoyment and usufruct
of his riches to his own selfish self. He has been a
railroad attorney for many years, than which, we
Imagine, there is no more demoralizinir occupation.
Finally, his was the acute and unwearyiu^ mind that
tracked the Tweed gang through all the sinuosities
of their misdeeds and ultimately dragced them to
the bar of justice. As we argued yesterday, there is
much in common between the professional thief-
tracker and the professional thief. Now, we do not
call Mr. Tilden by any such name, nor even in
timate any absence of strict personal integri-
ty on his part In this unfortunate income
basin ess. Bu t we say his pecaltar branch of
tbe le^al profession was demoralizing, and that
his study or crime and the means of detecting
it tended to induce tbe Imbit of looking to the letter
of the law. and not to its broad intentions. Doubt.
leM he reaJioned thnt if Tw^eed and hts cang could
defy the whole ponulatlon of New-Yoi City for
years and vears to brin;; them to punishment for the
most wanton de^ince and wholesale violation of the
law. it was a virtuous compromise on hift«-Mr. Til-
den's — part to comply with the income tax law
not the fraction of an inch further than he construed
it to be inevitable and self -executing. The onus, he
argned, rested on the side of the Government. The
onus has been made to rest with him. The stun of
$138,000 is at scake. and not thnt only or chiefly,
but the character and future political prospects i>f the
late leader of the Democratic Party of the United
States. Mr. Tilden must prove himself innocent to
retain the latter, thotuib the Goveniment siiU has
tbe burden of proof upon it, If it is to get any of the
defaulted tax.
It is plain that our late Presidential candidate does
not belong to a very high moral plane. It ma/ fairly
' be believed, however, that he is a pretty faithful
type, representing the jjeneral averoge of American
politicians. Since the tide of ignorance rushed Into
the arena of public affairs, it seems next to impos-
sible that any man of delicate scruples or exalted
character should succeed in the lottery of public life.
To wiu tbe bi^h urizes there must be an element of
faumbuK in an aspirant. People have reached that
pass when a life nnasoally clean and exempt
from popular vices is resarded with suspi-
cion as the cloak of hypocrisy. If a candi-
date has not the more genial habits which
attnched popular support in the good old times of
our fathers, and which yet have a certain power, he
mast get up the reputation of exceptional shrewd-
ness, whlcn. as interpreted in those days of Jay
Gould and Jim Flsk and Credit Mobiller and Rinxs
and things, is not far removed from pecoJation. Jt
was this kind of repatalioa that brousht Mr. Tildeo
into prominence and that procured him his nomina-
tion for President on the Democratic ticket It was
the worst day's work ev. r done by the Democratic
Party, and we shall escipe lishtly if it be not devel-
oped hereafter that the division and ruip of the
party were involved iu that act and its connequences.
The silver lining of the cloud is tbat we will prob-
ably not be pestered by the claims of Mr. TUden in
the future. Not even the free tise of money will
avail bim now. His day is done : his raoe run ; his
career closed. The defense of his suit may well oc-
cupy hia thooshts for the rest of his mundane ad-
miaL'^tratton. The Democratic Party Is done with
him. except as a costly memorial of ita worst and
most injurious mistake.

0u>r .Tilden h&s h^ bis income tax indebted-
ness fixed npon him, tboagh he has wri^Egled continu-
ally for two years to avoid his responsibility. Judge
Blotchford, of the United States Court, has readered
a decision. holdinjE that the Government was not
bound by the action of the Assessor aa its agent, and
that Tilden was required to himself make the retam
of his income, wfaii-h he had not done. Tbe case now
goes before a jury to decide the amount of bis in-
oome during the years in which he made no retam.
In these years Tilden allowed tne AsscFSor to make
tbe returns, and paid the tax on each return, to-

A TRAIN OP CARS STRUCK — A SINGLE FLASH
STKIKE;3 .^L over the city op DE-
TROIT.
The Cleveland (Ohio) fferald of March 28
says: "The north-bonnd train on the Cleveland,
Tuscarawas Valley and Wheeling Railway, when be-
tween Massillon and Fulton yesterday afternoon,
was struck by liehtning. The engineer and brake-
man received slight in jnries about the head and lower
limbs, but the passengers escaped without more than
a terrible shaking up and a sadden fright. The
baegage car was somewhat shattered, and after the
effeots of the shock had passed, the conductor passed
through, exhibiting some large pieces of the timbers
where tbe car was shattered. The report of the
electric flash was as if a cannon had exploded in the
centre of the train. As quick as the flash every nas-
senirer was raised from his sent, and some felt the
shock some minutes afterward. It was miraculous
that -the liehtning did not count some victims, or
throw tbe train from the track,"
The Detroit Free Fres» of March 27 says: "At
5:30 last evening the community was startled by a
blinding tlash.aud a tre.- endoos crash of thunder,
and it is entirely beyond estimate to guess how
many persons remarked udou the impulse of the
moment : * Gues^ that struck near here. ' From the
reports which were carrent upon the streets last
night it Is fair to concluae that the 8tn>ke of light-
ning in question was one of the most remarkable
electric eccentriclti 1 ou record, inasmuch as its ef-
fect was felt In all pkns of the city, while the illu-
mination was very general. The most direct and
serious result of the explosion was the partial bum-
inc of fire enginA-faouse'No. 9, on Alexandrine- a ve-
nue. Ttie foiemu), D. Broderick, was standing iu
the west door of The build'.n^ when the Sash came,
and not being particularly affected, stepped Into tbe
yard to see where tne lightning bad struck.
He imroedintely 6ecame aware that the tower to
the engine-house ''W.1S on fire, while the roof
to the stablo was also bnmln^. Mean-
while, the llKhtnlng haviag burned the fire
idarm telegraph wire, the staole-door latches were
tripped, and. stunned and xtaggerine like drunken
men, the horses, seeine tbeir stalls open as nsual iu
case of fire, stumblt-d forw.^rd to their places beside
the pole or the cheoiical engine. Broderick ran back
into the house to give an alarm and lonod the hostler
stunned, working in htlf-dazed fashion to hitch the
fru{htened hordes to the machine. The work being
accomplished the engine was drawn into the street,
an alarm was turned in f rom iStatioa No. 1? 5. and
within five mloates after tbe first shock Broderick
had ilia hose and plpemen half way up tbe
tower doing all iu tueit power to stop the
fire. Besides the almost miraculous escape
from harm of the men and horses at tne en-
Kme-house, many other singular incidents occurred.
Mr. Foley's bouse,- on CrawtorS-street, was discov-
ered to be on fire immediately after the thunder
crash. A 14-year-old girl was sewing lu tbe upper
sVory of a hou^e on Fnnklm-street, and waa ren-
dered nearly lust nsible by the shock. When she re-
covered, tbe needle, which she still held between tier
flngen>, blackened and softened by the electric heat,
had been bent In the shane of a sickle. A gentle-
man living south of the Alexandrine-avenue engine-
house stood in the bnck door of bis house when tbe
lightning struck the buildlne. He says that with tbe
crash he saw a sphere of fire several luchea in cir-
cumference leave the tower of the engine-
house and dart in a . southerly direction
like a meteor over the wires of the fire-alarm' tele-
graph. A city lamp-lighter was upon his ladder near
tbe comer of Grand River-avenue and Crawford-
street, trving to light the lamp when the lightning
came. His torch w»s wrenched from his hand, hia
ladder shook and turned, and he, very much frisht-
ened, fell Into the mud. Gratiot-avenne car No. 41
was comins down the avenue, when, blinded by the
sudden light, the borae attached to the car turned
entirely around, and with his head close to the side
of the car stood tbere whlnneying and trembUag,
and coiUd not be coaxed to stir until he had been
loosened from the traces and led entirely uoan^ the
ear back to his place.. From all parta of- tbe'dty^
came reporU of shattered glaai, shaking crockery,
and frightened men, women, and enildnn, but aa yet
no fatal resnlts or even serions caaes have b«an heard
0f, although diligent inqoiry waa made."

FAST TROTTIXa IN SAK FRANCISCO.
GOOD SPEVD AKD GREAT ENDURANCE AT THE
BAT WSTRICT track — CONTR0LI.EB
MAKES 10 MILES IN 21\27^,.
Tnm the San Frarteiteo Ohronide, March 24-
Yesterday, the opening day at the Bay- Dis-
trict Track, Controller and Jack Stewart contested In a
10-mile trot for $ 1, 000 a side. In harness and to rale,
good day and track. Both these horses have achieved
aq enviable repute as to their excellence of style ip
performing long distances. Jack Stewart for nearly
10 years iias held the proud pre-eminence of the best
score both at 10 and 20 miles. Thus in his record
we find that he trotted 10 miles to wagon,, at Boston,
on June 30, 1868, in 28K)2H; and nnder the same
conditions he trotted 20 miles over the Fashion
Course.' Long Uand, Sept. 22 of the same year, in
59:2^— a better performance than that of Capt. He-
Gowan, in baraess, in 58:25. Ten years later we
And him in San Francisco, trying to uphold h s grand
repute, but in a gallant strotrele he had to yield his
welt-ewmed lanrels aa recarded the lO-mile contest
to Cnotroller, who, in defeating Hownri last Fall in
a 5-mtle trot, iu 13:19^. bad established his repu-
tation as a marvel of speed and endurance. It Is
true, however, that England still kept at the head of
the record at 10 miies, Uteel Grev havine made that
distance nnder saddle, in a matc^ for £400 at Learn-
ing Lane, Yorkshire, April 14, 1876, in 27:5Gis. the
English trotters being raised rather for prolonged
endurance than for speed.
But to return to yesterday's match. The bettlog.
that on tbe previous evening had been four to three
lu favor of Controller, was at the start almosjt the
like odds on Jack £;tewart, be briiurini; $25 to $18 and
^20 on Controller. The trot itself admits of but
very little description ; but when the horses were
being warmed np it w^s evident that if Stewart was
to remain the victor it would not be from the wa«t
of care and skill in the trainini; of his opponent.
At tbe first attempt they were tapped off to a pretty
even start, and at once Stewart ctft out the pace at so
brisk a rate as to lead Controller eight lengths at the
quarter, an advauLaice he increased to 12 lensths at
the half, and maintained it to the mile in 2:4714. In
the second mile there was but little change, the time
being 5:3Gi4. and again in the third mile in 8:21 Iq-
In the fourth mile, however. Controller somewhat
improved his position, diminishing the gap at an
easy, steady gait to four lengths at its finish In
11:07%, and lookinc as if be could outst>eed his an-
tagonist at this point. Stewart, however, still cut
out the work, and maintAined his own at about the
lamo advautage in 13:53^.
The match was now becoming highly interestlns,
and betting began to be brisk in the pools, varying
with each chance of the contest. On nearly com-
pleting tbe aixth mile Controller was almost up to
his autagouisl, when at the draw-eate he mode a
bad break that lost him some six lengths,
the distances thus far being done in 16:35^.
The seventh mile was the turning point of
the match, as Controller was seen again to close the
gap, and on mid-bome stretch they were on even
terms, and, as tbey finished the mile in 19:20%,
Controller asanraed the lead amid great cheering and
excitement. Controller was now uri£ed to his best
gait, and, in tr>-ini; to emulate the example, Stewart
made a bad break at the first turn, bat stllL at the
expiration of the elgbh mile in 22:01% ; it waa any
one's race, as tbere were bat three lengths' difference
between them. On the ninth mile, near the quarter
pole, Controller In his turn made a bad break tbat
tbreatened to ruin his chance of success, for at the
half mile Stewart led oy elRfat lenjcths, and
shortly afterward, his adversary anin leaviog bis
feet, the eap was still increased; out Controller
(Eot again steadily at bis work, and overhauled
Stewart at snch a steady, even gait, varied by a slight
skip at the draw ;;ate. that at the expiration of the
ninth mile, in 24:53%, although Stewart led, it was
evident that, barrini; accidents, the match was won.
At the first turn in the finishiuK mile they were on
even terms, and thence Controller drew away at
every stride, and won in a jog by some dozen
lengths in 27:27 tg, Stewart not b»"ing persevered
with when the result was a foregone conclusion.
Controller came back to the wire in a fine trot with
prickea ears, and it took a couple of men to stop him
m order to allow his driver to dismount'.
Tbe performance was a grand one and elicited
much praise from both professionals and the pabllc
Tbe time of the miles was re^tpectivelv 2:47%. 2:49,
2:4514, 2:4t>V, 2:4513. 2:42»4. 2:45, '2:41 14. 2:41%.
and 2:44. Controller la a bay 16 hands high, by
John N^lsop. and was driven in an admirably p .tlent
style by his owner, Henry White. John Stewart
was driven by Dan Dennison. Tbere waa some
talk last night of matchlns Stewart a^nst Control-
ler's time of 13:1914 over the Sacramento track,
but in the meantime we score 10 miles in 27:27% for
California, and call on the world to beat it.
TBS SIX NATJONS.
The Syracuse Journal of March 28 says:
"There wasa council of the Six Nations at Onon-
daga Castle last week, the questions nnder discussion
being the bill recently introduced in the United
States Senate by Mr. Keman, relative to giving these
tribes the rights of cltlzeoabip, and allowing them to
dispose of their lands iu this State ; also to devise a
way to compel the payment by the United States for
lands ceded by tbe Treaty of 1833 in fee simple to
the said Six Nations, but seized in l&58by ISecretary
Thompson and sold for the benefit of tbe Govern-
ment. These questions, with others of importance,
\lretc discussed by the cfaiefs and 'warriura of the dif-
ferent triboH and nations assembled to the number of
over 100. The coanc-ll fires were lighted where for
more than 100 years they have been wont to assemble
to discuss their wrongs and contend for their rights
The drift of the arf^ment wa« against any law tbat
should allow or compel them to Mconse citizen», aa
such a coarse would withdraw the pi-ntecting arm of
the Govemmeat and open wide tbe door to the
eraspmg avarice of the white man. They would
have nothtnc to gain and everything to lose ; it is for
their true interest to remain as they are. _In the
evening, after the council hud broken up. the young
men entertained their guests with s war dance, in
which they appeared in full Indian costume and
war-paint, with tomahawk and sc&lping-knife, and as
the war-whoop rang out from hill to valley it took
but a slisbt stretch of the imagination to take one
back to the time when tbe cry struck terror to every
whie settler who heard it. Keeping step to their
native music, these warriors chanted tbe prowess
and valor of their forefathers, when they were the
dominant race, the wrongs which they had endured
In following the coui-se which the Great Spirit
seemed to have marked oat for them. It waa cer-

LETTER FROM GOV. AXTUOyT.
00V. Anthony, of Kansas, has written a letter
on tbe finances, In reply to some assertions printed
in one of the newspapers of the State. He says that
he has never found any reason for abandoning the
bimetallic standard of values, and when stripped of
Its jobbery in the interest of bullion brokers, or
what should be called " silver gamblers, " hia jndg-
ment most heartUy approves an act of remonetiza-
tion. He goes On : " To this I must be permitted to
add, that I have no svmpathy with the men. in or
out of tbe Republican Party, who seek to belittle its
mission* by ridicule and contempt for Its * glorious
past.' The attempt to write 'currency' over tbe
word 'eoantry' upon its banners, is like disloyalty to
party and treason to country. The work for which
the Republican Party waa broaght into beine Is not
yet d«>ue. Treason to the fundamental doctrines ^f
our Government la not dead, but is restless and
active in the expectation ot ultimate mastery.
The political and civil equality, the Republican
Party ^ pledged to establish and maintain, and not
fixed'facts. The head of our National Government,
elected as a RcpabUcaa by Republicans, stands in
open hostility to the spirit and essence of free kov.
emment, deelarin£ that ' intelligence aud prosperity, '
not lesaUy-con^tituted majorities, most rule. And
to-day he looks on with anparent indifference to that
rule, in a large portion of our country, knowing that
it defies justice, imprisons patriots, aud lutimidates
majorities, whoso intelligence is not equal to the
work of assassination, ana who have no property in
shot-guna and a\nmunition for that purpose, if it be
true that the only remaining work for the Republican
Party is to determlue the number of grains of silver
which is to constitute the dollar-unit of value, and
'regulate the volume of cnrrency to meet the wants
of trade,' then, indeed, the statement impated, an-
.iustlv I hope, to President Hayes, that he foand the
Republican Party dead at the time of his inaugura-
tion, might aa well be ttue. Finance aaa become the
'bonanza' of dema^^^oery; let it not be made the
grave of tuitriotlsm."
CAPT. BOTTOJrS LONGEST VOTAOB.
A letter from Lisbon announces tbe arrival of
Capt. Boyton at that place, on the 17th of Febrsar}*.
thus termlnatins his voyage down the Tagus, from
Toledo, tho longest and most dangerous of all tbe ex-
cuTslons he has yet made. His trip has been through-
out a complete Bucceaii. He waa for 18 days in the
water. baviuK left Toledo on the Slat of January.
Throaghoat the whole distance he waa received In
the moat sympathetic manner by the people living
along the river, who anlvers^y came to the banka
and applauded him on bis passage down. Every
facility was offered him by the Spanish and the Por-
togaeae Governments. Ou his arrival in Lisbon, the
Captain seems to have been completely exhausted
owiUK in some degree to the fact that a part of tbe
eoantry tbroa^ which tbe Tagas rn najs acareely more
than a desezi, and he was obliged in eonaequcDee to
suffer an. sorts of priraUons, as he found U imprae*

he had pTomisad to malce a statement In legud to
th» debt OK the ehurch ead the edTorti whieh were
being aiadeto raise it. The whole amount raieed In
the ehttreh was about $42,000, and tbe amoant eon-
trSbnted br persoiu oattlda tbe ebnrcb wai $4.^38,
maklBg an Btgngwim amoant of a trifle less than
$46,000 thoa far received. The amount eontribttted
by ontalden ha« been 0nn wlthont soUei-
tation. In regud to the amount raised
"by tiie etmgregatiou, it had no doubt been
affeeted bgr the etringeney of the times and tbe peen*
llafltiee of human nature. Some bad given more
than had been anticipated, and some, perhaps, aa
mneh their eireamstanees would permit, and if there
werethoeewhohadnotfirett as mneh as bad been
expected, no one bad a right to jadge them or to
qneatlon their motives. It was a matter entirely be-
tween each indivldoal and bis God. There was un-
qnestlonaMy sometliing of pride in the matter, and
there were dou'btless thos% who, because they
could not give much, would not give at all.
He had received, he said, many small contributions
of $1 and $5 and $10 from those in humble circum-
stances, end thene evinced a right spirit, and were
blessed of the Lord. One poor woman had given $3,
whieh she had aecumtilated by working with her
needle, and another $10, whldt she had saved from
ber earnings by taking in washing. Going from small
thiogs to lanrar, he said be bad received two sub-
aertptions of $10,000 each, one of $5,000. severhl of
$500. and a large number of $100 each. Dr. Schepck
said tiiat the interest of people in the troubles of St.
Ann's was not eonflned to the congregation, nor to
theCStyof Brooklyn, but .extendeU throughout |the
entire eonntry. Not Ions ago be met a prominent
layman of the Methodist Cbnreh, who asked him how
they were getting along, and who tola him tliat tbe
whole Methodist denomination was praying that they
might be successful. In feet, the entln Qmrch was
praying that that old historic ehureh might not be
permlUed to die. Tbe Bishop of the diocese had also
beeome interested, and arrangements were being
made to secure outside aid. But they could not
hope to obtain this unless they did more themselves.
It was a desperate work they were engaged In. and
th^ must make a desperate effort to accomplish it,
and that effort must be made within a week. The
giving muKt not be confined to tbe bead of tbe
family, but the husband and the wife and
each and every one of the children must
Join in tbe effort, or they would, ere
ong. find themselves without a church to womhlp
in. In eoneluKion. Dr. Seti««nck said that there
would be a meeting la the chapel on Friday evening,
at the close of the lecture, at which all those wfa'o
were raising funds for the payment of the debt would
make reports.
The total debt of the ehureh at tbe outset was
$188,000. Sinee the 1st of January about $46, 000
has been raised, leaving a balance of $92,000 to be
subscribed, or the chnztb will be sold. This balance
must be raised within four weeks.
yMS,iTALMAGE ONCRITRCH MVSIC,
HE A2rH0UNC£S THAT MR. OEOROE TV. HOB-
OAK HAS BEEN KE-ELECTED ORGANIST OF
BIS OBtmCH — THE- KFFIGACT OF MUSIC IN
BXLIGXON.
• Rev. T. De Witt Tftlmain preached a sermon
yesterday morning on ** Church Music." Before do-
ing so he announced with a slgnifleant smile, that
Mr. George W. Morgan had been elected organist by
the Trustees for another year. liOud applause
greeted the announcement, after whieh Mr. Morgan
played the overture to "D Trovatore." Mr. Tal-
mage selected liis text foomNebemiab. vU: 67~"And
they bad two hundred and forty and .five singing
men and singing women." Tbe best mnsie he had
ever heard, the preacher said, had been rendered
under trouble. The first duet which was recorded
had been sung by Paul and Silas when they sang
praises to God and the prisoners heard them. All of
the dinrehes needed to be aroused on tbe subject of
mnsie ; those who eonld smg should throw their
souls into It, and those who conid not sing should
learn. The human throat w&« ao Indication of what
God had intended it to do. It had 14 direct muscles,
capable of giving out 16,383 soands. There were
16 indirect muscles gtving out 173,741.823 sounds,
and the human throat waa csnablo of emit-
ting 17,392,186,044,415 different sounds.
"If a man can sing, and won't sing,
be should be sent to Sing Sing,"
said Mr. Talmage. There was music in the eanarien
and in the thunder's rattle. The first organist and
"harpist was mentioned in the Bible In the fourth
chapter of GeneslB, and In the twenty-elsbth chapter
of uie same book the first choir was spoken of. A
sermon in words was not half as effieaeioua as a ser-
mon set to mnsie ; and while the music of the great
masters. Handel and Haydn, Beethoven and Mozart,
waa familiar to the present generation, Luther's
sermons had been forgotten. In conclusion. Mr.
Talmage aaid he proposed to preach to his eongreea-
tion on mnsie until every member joined In toe
hymns. "If," said he. "you are so constituted that
yon sing in liigh C when you think yon are singing in
low C, wen well excuse yon ; othMwise we want to
hear from you."
A PROSPEROUS CSTmCS,
After tHe close of the morning services in the
Simpson Methodist Church, Brooklyn, yesterday, tbe
Pastor, Bev. Dr. Sims, read the anntial statement of
the condition ot the ehtireh. The Inerease in mem-
benhip during the year has been 122, and the total
present membership is 550, of whom 79 are proba-
tioners. The total number of scholars in the Sun-
day-eebool is 788, with an average attendance of
466. There has not been a loss by death of tbe head
of any family during the past two years, nor have
any of tiiem &iled In business during that time. The
eurrent tsptiae* of the ehureh, amotmting to
$10. 800, have all been met. besides tbe payment of
$690 for extra labor, repairs, ftc., and they nod also
paid a floating debt of $18,166. The contributions
of tbe Sunday-school had amounted to $1,140, and
the ehureh eoUeetions and profits from lectures to
$600 more. The total amount of money ndsed by
the cbureh and Sunday-sehool was $26,000. which
was an inerease of $8,600 over the previous year.
The amount received from pew rente was $1,000
more than the previonsyear, and the inerease in the
amount of the ladies' ofTerings was $1,G50. ^

" The Evangelical Lntiiefan Church of the
Holy Trinity, Twenty-first-street, between Fifth and
Sixth avenues, has be^n incumbered by a debt
amountingto between $32,000 and $33,000. Two
of the members agreed recently to cancel two mort-
cages on the parsoni^e, smounttng to $17,00O, pro-
vided tbeeengrseatlAn would pay a mortgage of $15,-

yest«day announced to his eongrecatlontfaat idl but

The ezerdn* of the Amerlcnn T«mpenao»
Unioo in Tammanx Hall yesterday aftecnoon were
opened with tbe singiag of the hymn, " Tooeh Net
the Wine-enp.*' After the slnglnc tbe Ties-Pvasl-
dent of the Union introduced Mr. Henry Beodi m
"America's most original, sneeeasfulf and fisihw
reformer." Tnmultaons spplaose greeted the waD-
known gentleman as be walked to tbe table, which
was decorated with numerous stripe of blue ribbon.
When he had first received the invltatiaatosiakea
temperance addreu he uid he hftd been sonewhii
puszled to diseover what he bad to do irithtcnpet^
anee. He was identUed wtth tbe lower order nf
animals, and hts dienfis neither sfade, voted, nor
drank. WhOe meditating upon tills appcrently
•ound reason why he had no bniittesi to be in-
terested in liquor, be happened to go to tiie
window, and sedng a drunken man beatug
a poor old hone, it suddenly oeenrred to him
that bis allegiance to tbe cause of lower creation
should prompt an interest In the suppression of rum.
He remembered In his boyhood days of having often
written tbe proverb, ' * Money is the root of aU evfi, "
and thought it true then. But the experience of
riper years prompted him to regard it otherwine.
Money waa a good thing in its way, provided a man
had not too much or too little of it. It was mm
that was the root of all evil rather than money. &
had often heardthe^Epression applied to an intoxl-
oAtod man that " he was as drunk as a beast," and
that reminded him of an anecdote of an English no-
bleman who gave a grand dinner to his friends.
After the rich viands had been olsnosed of and the
bottles began to circulate freely, one of the guests
arose, and, addressing the convivial company, said :
"Well, gentiemen, bow shall we drink, "referring
probably to a contemplated toast. A litUepale-faeed
man at the other end of the table replied in
a timid voice that "he should prefer that they
drank like beasts." There was a sensatloa instant-
ly, and the first speaker indignantly demanded an
explanation of the unseemly remark. The little
gentienun complied at onee and restored good humor
by saying that he p>ref erred that the company should
drink like beasts ''because beasts never became in-
toxicated." Mr. BeKgh next referred to tbe state-
ment that there were 8,000 ^censed rum shops In
this City^lcensed by the Government — andsaid that
he did not consider it tbe province of the Govern-
ment to license such establishments. It they did
they should not claim the right to punish a man for
any felony committed wliile he was drunk. The
liquor traffic, the speaker had often remarked, had a
most singular nomenclature, and whenever a man
wanted to drink the knowing ones said he "amlled."
It had often been stftted by the press that he [Mr.
Bersb] nevu- smiled, and that he always looked
SB sad and sorrowful as a grave-digger. He
could not exactly understand the appropriate-
ness of this comparison. It was well known that a
grave-dlgcer was one of the merriest souls in tbe
world. Why, then, should be be called as sad as a
grave-digger I The papers mljrht aa well liken him to
a Coroner, who was always happiest when tbe mor-
tality waa greatest. He bad been told that the op-
erations of these solemn gentlemen waa aomethJng
as follows : A body was found floating at tbe pier at
Teptb-street, and notification was sent to tbe Coro-
ner. The latter came there smiling, and sat upon
the body, and after slttlnron it suBciently lone to
Juiitif^ a claim for a fee, threw It back in the wator.
The tide carried it down to the Houston-street pier.
perbaps, when notification waa sent to another
Coroner that a body had been found floating
in the river. The second Coroner also came, smiling,
and sat on the body, and then threw it into the
water again, and went home to flx up his bill tor a
fee. Tbe tide carried the body to tbe other aide of
the Inluid, in the course of tune, and In a almllar
manner it was discovered, sat upon, and set afloat by
divers Coroners, who smilingly charged respective
fees. No, the press was wrong. He did smOe. and
smile often, but he did not " smile" in the meaning
of the llqnor-dealers. He knew only one man whose
babit of drinking he might be lead to sanction, and
that man waa an Inveterate drinker, who explained
his many potations upon the philanthropie ground
that he was actuated aolely by a desire to "get the
liquor out of the country."
Mr. Bergh was warmly applauded at the conclu-
sion of bis address. Ttie Vice-President then intro-
duced little Flora Anld, a child of remarkable elocu-
tionary ability, who entertained tbe audience with a
recitation of "The l>8t Hymn." Addresses were
then delivered by Rev. Dr. R. S. MacArthnr, Rev. Dr.
W. W. Clark, and several others, after which the
meeting adjourned.
The announcement that Widow Van Cott would
speak l>efore the American Temnerance Union at
Cooper Instituto yesterday attracted a very large
audience. William H. Mundy, nreslded, and, after a
tew remarks, introduced Mrs. Genevieve Howard, a
well-known temperance lecturer, who delivered an
address, in whicn she characterized intemperanee as
the "Imp of the Household. " About a dozen Utile
drls next appeared and saOg "Only an Armor
Bearei," after whieh Mr. Mundy announced that Mr.
P. T. Bamum would address the Union next Sunday.
Mrs. Van Cott was then Introduced. She spoke for
nearly an hour, makiog an earnest argument in
faVor of tempennce. Sho said that woman held the
destiny of tbe world in lier hand, and recited instan-
ces where woman had been the means of eontirolling
events of great Interest to nations. She urged
women to exert their influence on men to induce
them to give up the inebrtatinic cup. In conclusion
she Appealed to thoae In the audience who wished to
renounce liquor to come to the "front. "and sign the
p1e<Ice. About 100 responded, after which tiie
meeting adjourned.
A UAVAQBR AbSAULTS AJV ACTOR.
William J. Fleming, manager of tbe Count
Joannes Troupe, was arrested in Jersey City on the
arrival of the "Owl Train " from Philadelphia, at 5
o'daek yesterday morning, for an assault on Edward
C. Coyle, one of the troupe. Tbe troupe played
in Fliiladelidiia on Saturday evening, and Flem-
ing collected the proceeds. He told the per-
formers that he would not have time after
the fan of the curtain to settle with them
before the train left, and agreed to meet
them on tbe can and pay them. After tiie
train had started they looked anxiously for him but
be did not put In an appearance. Inquiry elicited
the information that he had taken a Iwrih in one ot
the sleei^ng coaches and had retired for the night.
Coyle went into tne sleeping car and after nome
trouble succeeded in finding the manager. Coyle
demanded that he go Into the car where the mem-
bera of his troupe awaited him and fulfill his promise.
He showed no disposition to comply, and brought
the war of words which followed to a close by deal-
ing his importunate creditor a blow in the face. In-
formation of tbe assault was at once telegraphed to
Jersey Citr, and the presence of the PoUee being
thus secured at the depot, Flemlzig was taken into
custody when tbe train arrived. He hsd 91.112 13
in his possession. His examination wHl take place
this morning.

The Charleston ITaet prints a long report by
Hon. B. K. Oonrdln, Chairman of tbe Committee on
Ceaat ' tiaada of the -Agricultural Society ot South
Carolina and says:
" It is a settled fact tliat Sea Island eotton and
lice esnnot be produced with profit at preaent
.vrieesj with our preaeat aystam oC lobar. An exeep-
tloaaliy good plmitar, bare and there, may continue
to sueceod, but tbe tact that tbre»«mrtbs ot the Sea
Island eottoa leads aad one-half ot the riee lands
under calttvatlon la 1860 are now ttirowa out,
' proves that the avenge plantar caaaot make money.
On North Bantee alma, aa we ara Informed, only
three rice Plantations are now ealtlvated out of 18 in
I860, umitwaashownlnarepoitmadelastSanmier
to tbe -Agrieoltaral Society that, la our tour coaat
countlea, over 400,000 aeree 9t land have been
tbrova out ot caltlvatiaa slaee 1860. Are theee
leads to ramala idle, or shall wa make aa effort to
utilise them again I Itiaa question at ss vital im-
portance to Chadastoa as to tbe planters, for no
eityeaaproaper in the midst of an unproductive
eoniftry. It sack aa effort is ta be made, then the
report now published Is at iaealenlable
valuet as it shows what has beea done
with lands as poor ss any on tbe eoaat.
Tbe striking festnrea of Mr. Goordla's report are :
That graia and hay crope caa be atade 00 our coast
lands to give a larger yield than the average yield in
any of the grain-growing States, aad equal to the
ylMd in any eonntry la Enrwcj tbatthe system by
which tbcee large eropa can be made ta afanple. Inex-
penaive, and within the Tsaeh of every farmer In
tbe low eoBntrr; that the capital raqaired

compared to that needed for the eahivation of
cotton or rice ; that with tba use ot agrlenltnral ma-
chince one laaa aad horse caa cultivate ia gtiala aad
graaa five or alx timea tlie quantity of land be could
cultivate in eotton or rice ; that our eoaat landa, be-
ing level and tree from atampa ot treea and atonea,
are peisoliarly adrated to the use of agricultural ma-
chines, aad that the grain erops beiag sown in the
Fall and harvested in tbe early Summer, every plant-

to the work going on, until his crops are safely har-
vested." -

The Boaton I^rmveBtr, speaking of eonntry
savings banks, says, la its issue of Mardi 28: "These
institutions bsre been taught a severs leeson withm
the last taw years— a lesson that they win be Ukely
to remsmber for some time to come. And it is this:
To invest in their own localities, where they are ac-
quainted with the value ot property and the ehsrse-
ters ot the men with whom they have to do in mak-
ing laveatmenta. Property and real estate that no
Boston savings bonk of tbe first class would have
takJBU at any rate, theae country inatitntlona have
taken in many cases just becsase they were wlthia
the limits ot Boatoa, aad would yield to them a very
high Intereet Tbe Loacaater Bank loaned 92,200

seriously Injured on Ssturday night by hia step-son
William. Mr. Abbott waa sitting with bis wife sad
William, a boy ot 16 yeatst at supper, when a dis-
pute arose between blm and Mrs. Abbott. It is
stated that Abbott offered the lady violence, and
William sprang to tbe defense ot his mother. Ab-
bott directed bim to keep quiet and take bis seat, or
he woiUd knock blm down. The threat enraged the
boy, and seising a knife from the table, he
caught bis step-father by the throat with one
hand, and with tbe other plunged the
blade Into Abbott's aeek. Tbe injured men went at
onee to the office of Drs- Bleyle ud Berrold, where

hfan from bleeding to death. Detective Fisher, who
had learned of the affair, went at onee to the house
end arrested the lad. Last evening Abbott was

Wasbikoton, April l.^Mr. Ewjng, otthe
House Oommi'Kee on 'Baokingr and Cnrreoey, .
has been making elaborate preiwratlons tor
some time to bring Secretary Sherman before
that committee and fompcl him to acknowledge
that be could not resume ' specie payments as
dliaeted by existlne law. Mr. Swing had gath-
ered all possible objeotlans and impossibiUties,
stadhad them ready to suggest tothe.Sesre-
tary, expeettns that the latter would be eon-
fonnded by their magnitude and force. The
interview between the Secretary and the oom-
miteee wsa noteoneladed to-day, and indeed
adyaaoed only into the middle «f the question.
Ewing's examination wss very sharp, and di-
rected to those polnte which have beendiscossed
in the papers, and by bankers and DnAneiers.
If Mr. Ewing expected to get any concessions,
or to force the Secretory into any position
which would aid in urging upon ConKtess any
forthac legislation in the direction of Mr.
Ewingi's ideas, he was much disappointed, for
the Seotetarywas far too wary to be caught
in an^ sneh ' snare. The- Seia'etery's
bearing before tiie committee was one of entire
coididaBea ia his abiUty to resume specie pay-
meata on the 1st of January, 18'^, if only
Congress would stop tinkering the flnanmsl
laws. He impressed theeommlttee— both those
who agreed with him snd those who did not —
with hia entire earnestness and sincerity
in his ability to exeeate the law, and
innitred some degree of eonlldence in
members who have been doubtful Some
of the Secretary's statements, however,
amonated to a coneeasion that certain events
which eeemed beyond bis control most take
place in order to make resumption possible. He
sgreea, aubatantiaUy,' that the difference be-
tween silver and gold must disappear, in order to
msintsln resumption. He did not state to the com-
mittee, and perhaps eouldnot, any reasonswhieh
lead hiin to beliere that the silver dollar will
be equal in value to the gold dollar in January
next. Mr. Chittenden pressed several questions
upon liim, among them one relating to this
very point, as to whether he could resume
unless silver should ad'vance to 58 or 59 pence
in London. The Secretary did not, at the
meeting to-day, discuss these questions
very fully, and it is uncertain what
he may do with them at the next hearing. He
assumes that to resume specie paymenta he
most bave $129,000,000 in gold, Independent
of what may be owned by the banks. He also
assumes that there will be no sneh demand noon
him for tiie redemption of greenbacks as is
predieted by the various bankers and financiers.
He still contends that the Treasury has
$90,000,000 in gold available for resumption
purposes, and he needs, according to
hisvlew, to secure but $50,000,000 addition-
al. This he feels eartsin he can procure from
the sale of the 4 per cent, bonds ; but in case
they will not sell at par, he has the 4I3 and 5
per cento to fall back upon. The discussion to-
day was directed to. the legality and possibility
of uring subsidiary silver now coined to aid in
resumption. Of the praetleal use of the amount
due to tiie sinking fund by letting sny
deficiency that may happen fall upon
that fund, and upon some other matters of de-
tail The oondition of the Bank of England
was referred to, and Mr. Sherman made the
atatement that the Treasury would be as strong,
comparatively, next January, with fifty millloiis
more of gold in ita possession, as the Bank of
Englattd. Thia aubject of compariaon of the
Beak of England with the Treasury waa only
incidentally referred to, and will be brought up
before the committee at tha next hearing. It
seems altogether likely that whatever the final
result of the attempt to resume specie paymenta
may be, the Seeratary will sneeeed in prevent-
ing any further flnaseial legislation advene to
the execution of the Besimiption law. Of
eouiae, it is hopeless to expect that any measure
can be wae^tA which will aid the work of le-
snmption. -

Wasbinoton, April 1.— It has been a
common report for several days that Gov.
Packard's chanees for nomination for Collector
at New-Orleans were improving. 'Witiiin a day
or two it is positi'vely asserted in various quar-
ters that he win receive the appoiiitment
Some of his friends to-day ore snrs he irin be
nominated to-morrow. It is certain thst the
Prerident some time ago had deterTnlned not to
appoint Packard CoUeetor. This determination
waa pretty generally Icnown and considend final,
until wittin the past few days. Careful inquiry
shows that tiie confidence in Packard's proapeeta
arises almost entirely from the change in tiie
attuation since the acquittal of Anderaon, and
the arrival here of WiHIamaon, who was nceat-
lynjected. Thero is really no person pressed
upon the President by aay strong Inftaenee at
the present time, except Paekard. 'WilUamson
has withdrawn from the contest in his favor.
So, also, has MeMUlan. He is EUyported by Mr.
Bnstis and some other Democrats. He has the
recommendation of almost or quite every Repnbli-
canmemberof botiihonaeaofCongTesB. Outside
of the White Boose there seems to be very Ut-
tie opposition to his appointment, therefore,
his friends are certain that he will be appointed.
But It cannot be learned that tbe President has
given any conriderable encouragement, or has
Indicated any disposition to chance his deter^
mination of some time ago. He has dropped
some words which Indicate his williufniess,
personally, to make the appointment;
but it la probable that Mr. Howe'a
speech still has some advsrt« inflnenoe, since
the President would not, of coarse, wish to put
himself In a poaitlon to have it said that he hod
been forced to make the appointment by the at-
tacks npon him. Considering the little infla-
enee that Howe's qieeeh has had on anybody
else. It Is possible it will not weigh mocli with
the President in determining the CoUectorship.
and, on the whole, while it cannot be said that
Packard's chances are very brilliant, it Is cer-
tainly not impossible that within a few days he
may receive th e nomination.

In thla connection tha Saerstary defined what waa

not be readily comprehended by the prose-
ontion. The refusal of this demand con-
cludes the case, and Gen. Anderson, with
a clean bill of health, rode triumphantly
away with his friends. Congressional ora-
tors who continue to descant upon the
Louisiana ease will be regarded as conduct-
ing a political post-mortem.
The Assembly Committee on Privileges
and Elections has given the Senate corre-
spondent of Tee Times permission to sub-
stantiate any or all of his assertions touch-
ing the connection between the fate of
legislation directed against Tammany Hall
and the vote of the Tammany Sen-
ators in favor of Superintendent Smtth.
We shall be somewhat surprised if our cor-
respondent does not succeed in bringing out
some interesting facts bearing on the dis-
reputable bargain of whiofi the vote of the
Tammany Senators was so obviously a
result The conspirators on either side are
not likely to be very communicative
on the subject, but under the skillful hand-
ling of Mr. Hale there can hardly fail to be
elicited points which will have a much
wider range than their immediate relation
to the treatment of the Elective Controller's
bill by the Assembly Committee on
Cities. So far, the investigation has
merely furnished Mr. Hamilton Fish, Jr.,
with an opportunity to develop some of his
characteristic idiocy, and to show that any
suspicion of his poUtioal knavery must be
tempered by the reflection that ho is a con-
summate ass.
Persons engaged in getting up petitions
will find in another column the names of cer-
tain " eminent citizens" who are not partic-
ular as to the merits of such documents, and
with whom consistency of puTDOse or
opinion is of but secondary importance
where matters of a public charac-
ter are concerned. It will be seen
that ten highly respectable gentlemen
who siinied a petition against the appoint-
ment of Mr. Kelly as Controller also
signed the petition congratulating him on
the results of his first year's term of office,
and that five of these, with thirteen
equally respectable associates, have pub-
licly indorsed both the Controller and the
constitutional amendments which were in-
tended to destroy the system of extravagance
and plunder, of which Mr. Kelly is the
chief representative. Had Kelly the Con-
troller turned out in any respect diflferent
from Kelly the political jobber, the re-
spectable memorialists in question might
have had some excuse for their remark-
able facility in lending their names now to
his condemnation and anon to his indorse-
ment. Had the iucrease of the bonded
debt of the City, which was laid to
Kelly's account by the resolutions of the
meeting of which some of these gentlemen
were Vice-Presidents, been disproved, it
would have been slightly less absurd to find
them complimenting him on the reduction of
that debt. But as it happens that Mr. Kelly
has merely become a much more mischiev-
ous politician since he entered the Con-
troller's office, and as his own figures prove
that the debt is increasing instead of dimin-
ishing, the remarkable ductility of the opin-
ions of the gentlemen whose names are else-
where given needs no comment.

The ^gnal Service Bureau report indicates
for to-day, for New-England and the Middle
Atlantie States, clear or partly cloudy weather,
'wrik-icesterly minds, stationary temperature,
■and stationary or higher pressure.
Yesterday, Secretary Sherman gave the
Bouse Committee on Banking and Currency
■his views on the abiUty of the Treasury to
comply with the provisions of the Resump-
tion act. In answer to|Mr. Chittenden, he
made certain statements in regard to the
effect of the Silver law on his plans. These are
decidedly more guarded than the views ex-
pressed before the Senate Committee, though
they display but little advance either in pre-
cision of statement or in clearness of
apprehension of the conditions of the prob-
lem which he has to solve. Mr. Sherman
has dropped his talk about a "double
standard" facilitating resumption, and he
begins to have a glimmering of the fact that
a double standard is an impossibility. In
talking of his ability to maintain at par in
gold from fifty millions to one hundred mil-
lions of silver dollars, he simply reduces
silver to its true place of a subsidiary
coinage, and in referrine to the conse-
quences which will follow an overissue
of silver dollars, he admits the existence of
a difficulty which will render resumption, as
contemplated by the law, nugatory. The
idea that Congress will interpose to stop the
issue of silver dollars when they show a
tendency to gravitate toward their value as
bullion is about as delusive as the other
idea to which Mr. Sherman is obstinately
wedded, that resumption can be maintained
in presence of three hundred millions of
greenbacks retained as a permanent element
of the circulation.
Every fresh dispatch from Europe gives a
darker and stormier aspect to the immedi-
ate future. Bussia's embargo upon the ex-
portation of grain from the Danube, Ger-
many's prolonged veto upon that of horses,
England's appointment of Lord Salisbury
as Lord Derby's successor, Austria's recall
of aU officers on leave, Servia's mobilization
on her northern frontier of the very troops
which she so lately refused to place there,
are symptoms which all point in one direcr,
tion. Gen. Ignatiefp's vaunted " failure,"
again, appears to have been virtually no
failure at all. He has tested the current
of Austrian feeling, and learned exactly
what he may expect from that quarter — a
vitally important knowledge at the present
moment. Turkey, too, despite her profes-
sions of neutrality, appears to be falling
more and more under the control of Bussia ;
and the confident tone maintained by the
latter sufficiently proves how secure
she considers herself on the side of
<A.nstria and Germany. On the other
band, England's reported debarka-
tion of war material on the Island of
Tenedos is a virtual defiance to Bussia, and
may easily call forth the counter move of
a Bassian occupation of Constantinople
which would make war inevitable. To all
appearance^ however, neither her thinned
rajiks nor her prospective bankruptcy can
abate the enthusiasm with which Bussia
looks forward to the impending conflict ;
and the presence of Admiral Popoff and
'Gen. TODLEBEN at Constantinople shows
that she ia fully prepared for it. The pro-
gressive strengthening of the defenses of
Tchataldja points unmistakably to an in-
tended oeenpation of the capital itself ;
and, nnder such circumstances, the circu-
lar jnst addressed by England to the Eu-
ropean powers has very much the sur of the
apologetic "it's not inv doing" with which
the challenged party in a fight steps for-
ward against his assailant.
Some weeks since, the House of Bepre-
sentatives, with as much asperity as was
consistent with official decorum, asked the
State Department what had been done to
bring to trial Burbiel, " the Spsmish
kutoher," as he was once called. The Secre-
tly of State has made a reply which ought
lobe satisfactory. The trial of Bubriel
wss put off from time to time, State trials
in Spain being so notoriously tardy that it
is recorded that the murderers of Gen.
Pbw, who was assassinated in 1870, have
not yet been brought to an arraignment.
.Incidentally, as it were, it is stated that
BuBBTEL died in January last. When the
House of -Eepresentativea arose in its dig-
nity to demand why " the Spanish butcher"
had not boen brought to trial in Spain, that
aotorions person had departed out of the
^njadietion of the Spanish Government and'
out of the reach of Mr. Samuel a Cox's
Tulplmrous fnlminations.

THE TREASURT STATEMENT.
The statement of the condition of the
Treasury yesterday contains some impor-
tant points. The net decrease of the debt,
less cash in the Treasury, has been
$2,313,614 77 since the last statement.
The total amount of coin in the Treasury is
$138,357,608 14, which is an increa^ of
$7,039,552. The coin, less the coin cer-
tificates, is $80,874,208, and after de-
ducting the interest due and unpaid, and
the coin held for called bonds, the avail-
able amount is $68,525,732. It will be
seen by this how far the autieipations of
Mr. Sherman, as expressed to the Senate
Committee on Finance, have been realized.
While it would be unwise to judge of the
soundness of the Secretary's calculations by
the results of so brief a period, it is not in-
appropriate to remark that the events of
the next nine months will have to be much
more favorable than those of the last quar-
ter have been to enable* him to carry out
his plan for resumption.
We have no desire to oast any doubt on
Mr. SHEBJtAN's entire sincerity in the mat-
ter of resumption. He has every motive
for carrying out the law which stains upon
the statute-books. He was himself its au-
thor in all its essential features. He has
been appointed to the Treasury with everv
prospect of having the administration of
the law in his hands to the end. We have
no doubt that he would regard it as the
greatest achievement of his life if he could
meet the obligations imposed upon him
when the 1st of January comes around.
But it requires something more than good
will to discharge money obligations. The
law is specific in its terms. It declares that
the legal-tender notes shall be redeemed in
coin upon presentation after the date fixed.
That is the task which lies before Mr. Sher-
man, and it is one in regard to which he
cannot afford to make any serious mistake.
But it seems to us very plain that he has
made, and is making, a very serious mistake,
and that his preparations, as disclosed by
the debt statement of yesterday, as outlined
by himself in the colloquy with the Senate
Committee, and repeated before the House
Committee yesterday, are likely to be very
inadequate. In the first place, tt must be
borne in mind that t^e "coin" which Mr.
Sherman is slowly accumulating, is not all
gold coin. On the contrary, a very appre-
ciable proportion of it is silver, worth at
present a Utile less than 93 per cent, of its
face value, and the proportion of this less
valuable coin is constantly increasing, and,
with the Secretary's policy as defined up to
the present time, must go on increasing,
not only up to the 1st of next January, but
after that date and probably at a more
rapid rate than now. It is true that the
lawprovides for the redemption of the notes
in coin of both kinds, but unless silver
can be brought to par with gold and
kept there, such redemption will be
illusory. We have too much confidence in-
Mr. Sherman's integrity and good sense not
to believe that he would so regard it, and
that it would be a source of bitter disap-
pointment to him if he found himself baf-
fled in the pet objeot of his ambition — the
establishment of legal-tender notes at par
with gold after the date fixed for their re-
demption. He has too moeh aante to be
vhioh
wonid leave the a^tes at a discount prob-
ably much greater than they now suffer.
But, as a practical question, how he is to
avoid that result is very difficult to see.
While he keeps silver in the Treasury,
and refuses to part with it except at par
with gold, silver retains an arbitrary value.
But, when he opens the door of the Sab-
Treasury on the 1st of January, he loses
control over silver. If, by that time, silver
is in fact worth as much in the markets as
gold, his position will be secure. But if it
is not, his position will be an exceeding-
ly perilous one. He will have either to be-
^a redeeming in silver or in gold alone. If
he redeems in both, it must be either at his
discretion or at the discretion of the holders
of the notes. If he leaves it to the holders,
and silver is worth less than gold, they will
inevitably take gold, though the difference
be only the fraction of one per cent. If he
fixes a certain ratio, based on the relative
quantities of the two kinds of coin in the
Treasury, say one-third in silver and two-
thirds in gold, then the notes will, instead
of being at par with gold, be at a discount
of about one-third the difference between
gold and silver. If, on the other hand, he
elects to pay in gold alone, his resources will
be diminished just in proportion to the
amount of silver he holds.
Meanwhile, what will be the forces at
work regulating the amount of legal tenders
presented for redemotiont They will be
very simple, and will be measured precisely
by the public oonfldenee that gold redemp-
tion can be maiiitained. This Mr. Sher-
man proposes to influence by reissuing the
notes. He says that he has no doubt in his
own mind that he has the legal power to do
this, so long as the volume of the notes out
is not allowed to exceed $300,000,000.
He believes that the notes will be re-
duced to this sum by the 1st of Jan-
uai-y, and though he admits that the power
in question is not undisputed, he prob-
ably thinks that he will not be inter-
fered with if he exercises it. Indeed, it is
reasonable to suppose that he could obtain
from Congress an express authorization of
such action. But supposing the power to
be fixed beyond question, would its exercise
have the effect of keeping the notes at par T
We are persuaded that it would have pre-
cisely the opposite effect. The moment that
the time of redemption is reached, every
dollar of the deposits and issues of the
banks becomes a coin obligation. When
the public is .informed that the notes once
redeemed will be reissued, they will per-
ceive that there is to be no serious change
in the value of the notes, and they will
hasten to get coin for them as soon as pos-
sible and to as large an extent as possible.
And they will repeat the process constantly.
If silver only is offered them, they will take
the silver, change it into greenbacks, and
try again until the gold deposit is reached.
And if the Secretary meets this by using the
greenbacks to buy sSver to pay out once
more, then redemption becomes silver re-
demption only, and the notes will sink to the
value of silver, whatever that may be.
This is not a hypothetical view of what
will take place in the public mind. It is
based on precisely what business men are
thinking and saying and planning through-
out the country. It would be mere folly to
ignore it, or to suppose that we can drift
into resumption without taking into account
the interests which, with constantly increas-
ing force, will act to prevent it.
CONTESTED SEATS IN THE BOUSE.
As if they intend to hold the House for-
ever, the Democrats are offering great in-
ducements to future contestants for seats.
The present House, in disposing of all con-
tested cases, has adopted the good old rule,
" the simple plan, that they should take who
have the power, and they should keep who
can." Thus far, of course, it is the Democrats
who have the power to take. The Repub-
licans have no rights which a Democrat is
bound to respect. Democrats who are in
will stay in. Republicans who are out will
stay out. We can imagine a statesman be-
ing calle^n to vote upon the question.
Shall this man be admitted? and saying,
in reply to arguments, "Oh, bother the
facts ! Is this man a Democrat T
That's all I want to know." This
is no burlesque of what actually
happens. By this rule every case of con-
test in the House has been adjusted. When
the present Congress opened there were sev-
enteen cases of contested seats. Clerk
Adams, sharing in the general suspicion
that the Democracy would not be able to
organize the House if the members whose
seats were in question, but who held the
certificate of the Governors of their respec-
tive States were seated, proposed to " take
the responsibility" in true Jacksonian style.
It was his theory that he was temporarily the
House of Representatives consolidated and
personified. He scanned the list of con-
tested seats, and made up his mind to swear
in the Democratic contestants on what he
called "a,pri7na Jade case," until he had got
in enough to assure a Democratic majority.
Then the House could be happily organized,
he would be re-elected Clerk, and all would
be well. This was the programme, and
it would have been carried out, not-
withstanding the indignant protests of all
decent men. But it happened that the
Democrats were able to squeeze through by
a bare majority, and having organized, they
proceeded to put out the Republicans and
put in their own men, at their leisure. In
this way the four oases already disposed of
have given the Democrats as many addi-
tional votes. It ia natural to suppose that
the remaining thirteen contests will be set-
tled in the same way. Now that the Demo-
crats have an assured working majority,
they might afford to be magnanimous
enough to defer a little to principle. But
party prejudices are too strong for the ma-
jority, and the leaders will compel an ob-
servance of the established rule.
Three of the four contested cases already
decided were curiously violative of justice
and equity. The first of these was that of
WlOGiNTOM against Pacheco, of the Fourth
California District. The contestant was a
Democrat, but a Democratic Governor and
a Democratic State Supreme Court had
already decided in favor of the sitting mem-
ber, a Bepublican. The House Committee
decided to go behind the returns so far as
WlQOlNTON was concerned, and in that way
they found alleged irregularities soffioient to
give him a majority of the votes returned.
With rare audacity, the Eleetion Committee
refused to reopen the count in localities
wh«r« Wiooaraoii'B Tote waa lacmr
than Pachxoo's. The Eonsa followed
the Election Committee, and seated
the' Democratio conjtestant. In like
manner. Patterson, who applied for
the s^at of Belfobd, the Colorado Rep-
resentative, was given it. although he was
not even a candidate at the time of election.
It was s6t np that Belfobd, who had de-
feated the regular Democratic candidate,
had been voted for on a day not legally
fixed upon for the eleetion, and the cunring
Patterson, mnnihg all alone and by him-
self, on another day, claimed that the hand-
ful of votes which he, procured to be cast,
elected him. It was*" a case," and that was
all the party majority in the House wanted.
Dean got his seat so lately, by ousting
Field, from one of the Massachusetts dis-
tricts, that no comment on that outrageous
case is needed. Speaker Bandall
illustrated his unscrupnlonsness on
that occasion by. throwing a deci-
sive vote in favor of the Democratio
contestant, thus nuOdng an unnecessary
and unprecedented exhibition of partisan
zeal in the Speaker's chair. Mr. Randall
was in the illustrions company of B. F.
Butler, who gratified a personal grudge by
voting with the riff-raff of the House. The
fourth example was that of Acklen, but as
his contest was made up on the vexed ques-
tion of liouisiana election returns, we can
only infer that, on general principles, he
would be sure of his seat, right or wrong.
From Alabama, a Republican contests the
seat of a Democrat who has the legal certifi-
cate; the sitting member will not be dis-
turbed. But in Florida the case is re-
versed, and the Democrat who con-
tests will, of course, oust the Bepub-
lican. Two Louisiana Bepubliuans contest
the seats of two Democrats in possession.
But in South Carolina, the case is again re-
versed and three Democrats are claimants
for three seats now held by Bepublicans,
two of whom are colored men. The state-
ment of these five cases indicates exactly
how they will be settled. Missouri, Oregon,
and Virginia each send a Democrat to con-
test the seats of Bepublicans. And Mis-
sissippi, Pennsylvania, and Arizona each
furnish one Bepublican contestant for seats
already awarded to Democrats. As the
Arizona delegate has no vote, the Demo-
crats will gain seven votes from the deci-
sions yet to be made, which, added to the
four already secured by vote of the House,
Trill be an increase of eleven votes. The
Bepublicans will not be allowed to disturb
any one of the Democrats whose.^eats are
disputed. "The past, at least, is secure."
Mr. Clareson N. Potter commenting on
the general course of the House in regard
to the disposal of election contests, said
that his blood had often boiled in his veins
as he had noted the gross injustice commit-
ted by the Bepublicans when they were in
power. He voted against the monstrous
perversion of law and justice by which Dean
was given Field's seat, the other day. But
if he goes to Congress again, he will have
more pressing occasion for letting his blood
boilthanhehasyethad. The established prac-
tice of this House is a direct encouragement
for Democratic contestants. -The decision
in the Colorado case shows that it is not
even necessary that a claimant should have
been a contesting candidate. And any man,
with a few affidavits and manufactured
election returns, can get a seat by asking
for it. The Democratic majority will not
b^particular. A few odds and ends will
make a case. If the Democrats should hap-
pen to have a small majority in the House,
at any time, they have only to advertise for
contestants, and straightway a generous
proportion of the inconveniently full minor-
ity will be " decided" out of their seats by
a partisan Elections Committee. It should
be borne in mind, too, that a contestant
secures money as well as a vote. The Dem-
ocrats are astonishingly greedy for money.
And when the necessity for securing more
votes has passed away, it will still be party
policy to give the seats to Democrats, who
are more hungry for cash than for distinc-
tion.
CONOBESS AND THE MILITIA.
It is rare that a session of Congress passes
without some project of improving the Mil-
itia, and the present session is no exception
to the rule. It at first seems strange that
while all other great powers — indeed, all
other powers, great and small — maintain
elaborate Militia establishments, founded
and directed by central authority, our coun-
try has nothing to show save local organiza-
tions, on a very limited scale and purely
volunteer. Nevertheless, all attempts to
alter this condition of the Militia, from the
bills of Beaator Wilson and Gen. Paine, a
dozen years ago, down to thoae now pend-
ing, have &ilod.
The difficulty we take to be this : It ia
impracticable to enforce the existing Mili-
tia statutes and next to impAetieable to
substitute acceptable new ones. Made in
1792 and modernized in 1803, the exist-
ing statutes contain wise and severe direc-
tions about flints, firelocks, shot-pouches,
powder-horns, hangers, pontoons, fusees,
and mail-pillions, and they require every
able-bodied male resident citizen in the
United States between the ages of 18 and
45, armed and accoutred with more or fewer
of these ancient implements, to turn out on
regular days of training. During the pres-
ent session the Senate, impelled by
its annual desire to do some sort
of Militia legislation, reciting this
provision of universal enrollment, passed a
resolution asMiig the Secretary of War
what recommendations he had to offer for
carrying out the existing statutes, and so
on. In due time the information came ; and
it must have fallen heavily on the hopes of
the Senate, if the Senate had any hopes.
The Quartermaster-General reported that
the enrolled Militia nnder the statutes would
number 7,500,000 men, according to the
census of 1370. Giving the most ample
margin for exemptions. Gen. Meios finds
that 50 per cent, of the whole number will
be the "limit of those actually called
out" for annnsl muster, that is,
3,760,000 men and officers. This is
about the German percentage of exemption.
Gen. Meios accordingly goes gravely through
an estimate of the clothing and the camp
and garrison equii>age' of this number of
men; he adds the cost of transporting the
supplies, the arms, and the men to and from
oamp, the rent of grounds, the fuel, forage
and atraw, the building of barracks, &o.,
and he finds the total to be $245,096,272.
There ia no demonatzation of an absurdity
ooniaefaur than that of authontatiTa
flgnres. And irhea it is remembered that to
this large sum must be added the pay, and
a further cost for arms and equipments, it is
clear enough that enforcing the statutes is
^simply preposterous. And the real question
is after all as yet nntouohed, namely, what
do we want of three millions of Militia T
Leaving the existing statutes to remain a
dead letter, as so many successive Con-
gresses have left them, we next ask whether
there is not some possible substitute. Such
a question must not be answered off-hand
in the negative. At some day the organ-
izing genius may come— the American Cab-
not — who, devoting his mind to the sub-
ject, will be able to devise a national sys-
tem of Militia which will be at once so
cheap and so effective as to take the place
both of the State volunteer Militia and the
Begular Army. In the meantime' we may
point out why it is, probably, that this Cab-
not has not come hitherto, or has not been
wanted if he has already come.
In the first place, it may safely be set
down as a principle that our American peo-
ple are not in favor of a general, enforced
military service, not evenof the very slight
service now exacted of them by the dead-
letter statute. Had they been willing to
endure this service, they would long since
have had an effective National Militia law.
But the existing statute was founded on a
fundamental error. Its framers, the early
statesmen of the country, had a general
theory that standing armies were dangerous
to the liberty of a republic. Hence they
provided for a great body of militia and
almost no armr. But, as time passed, the
little Army, at first less than a thousand
strong, officers and men, crept up by
successive stages until in the year
1820 it reached an aggregate of 12,-
431; and by that time the old
theories of the danger of a standing
army — based on a curious blindness to the
probable difference between a little army
regulated by Congress and a great army
controlled by a despot — had gradually
weakened until they had practically disap-
peared. While this was going on, a second
change was occurring. The elaborate Mil-
itia system, instead of being looked npon
with favor, was popularly regarded as a
piece of folly. Exemptions were procured
by money, physicians' certificates, and so
on, until trainings fell into absolute' con-
tempt. Under the test of experience, the
whole fabric utterly broke down, and Con-
gress did not even take the trouble to repeal
the law ; while, on the ruins, about half a
century ago, was built up' our present sys-
tem of volunteer State Militia.
Our belief is that any attempt to organize
a national Militia system will find itself
troubled — though it may not be finally baf-
fled— by this same hostility of the people.
Considering the cost of a general national
Militia, and the calling of the people away
from their occupations at inconvenient mo-
ments, the popular feeling will for some
time continue to be, we think, that volun-
teer service for the ordinary needs of the
States, and a small regular Army, like the
present, for the ordinary needs of the coun-
try, form not only the cheapest, but the
most convenient system in a land situated
like our own.
Congress, however, may find a good work
to do in encouraging local Militia, in de-
veloping the new zeal for rifle-practice, in
more wisely expending the annual $200,000
Militia appropriation required bv law, and
in providing for some system of thorough
Militia inspection, with reports and sugges-
tions, by officers of the regular Army.
NOT AJi EXCEPTION.
It is a scientiflc fact that the peculiar
species of woman popularly known as the
female reformer is unusually thin and
bony. Whether the advocacy of reform
has a direct tendency to develop bones,
or whether women who are congeni-
tally bony become reformers because they
are shut out from the ordinary pleasures
and pursuits of plump and pretty women,
has never been satisfactorily ascertained.
Galen expresses the opinion that " reform
is bred in the bone " ; meaning, thereby,
that an excess of bones develops a desire for
reform ; while, on the other hand, Para-
celsus insists that " when a woman trou-
bleth her mind concerning affairs beyond
her comprehension, her flesh wasteth and
her. bones wax large." It is conceded by
anatomists and chemists that the bones of
eminwit female reformers contain an ex-
cess of phosphorus, and it has been asserted
that if the elbow of Mrs. Swissbelm is
briskly rubbed against a piece of sand-paper,
it gives out a bluish flame accompanied by
phosphorous aeid. It is not, however, ne-
cessary at this time to decide upon the
cause of the intimate association between
bones and female reformers. It is enough
simply to remind the public that the more
eamestiy a woman may advocate female
suffrage and trousers the more closely may
we expect to flnd her approaching the gen-
eral weight and appearance of a human
skeleton.
To this rule there has nevertheless been
one apparent exception which has greatiy
puzzled our scientific men. The Bev. Eliza
Wilkinson, who lately ministered to th^
Free-will Universalist congregation of Clin-
ton, ni., and who has been present at dozens
of dress-reform conventions, has always
been . hurled — ^metaphorically, of bourse —
in the faces of those who insist that all fe-
male reformers are necessarily bony. There
is no doubt that she has been a stumbling-
block in the path of science, for although
her face has been confessedly somewhat
thin and sharp, her figure has been plump
and beautifully proportioned. In former
years it was frequentiy alleged that Miss
Wilkinson was partly the product of art,
and that no confidence ought to be placed
in her apparent plumpness ; but after a com-
mittee of her enemies had watched her for
an entire year, and made sure that during
that time not an ounce of cotton had en-
tered her house, they were forced to give up
their unworthy suspicions. That she was
entirely genuine was gradually conceded by
all ; and onr ablest scientific persons were
finally compelled to admit that she was
either an entirely new species of female re-
former or that she was a large and heavy
lusus natura. Their want of absolute confi-
dence in the uniformity of nature has since
been signally rebnked, and they are now
ready to af&rm that they always kn^w that
she was no exception to the universal law.
On the third Thursday in March last the
eoogregation over whioh Hiss Wilk^won
areaidi» eelebntad tha toatli ■nitTJitwiji]
of its organization. As the meeting-house
is a small one, the celebration was held in
the Town Hall, where a large stage was
erected, from which, with the aid of a table
and a glass of water, lUm 'Wilkinson pro-
posed to deliver an eloquent lecture. The
Clinton Comet Band volunteered its ser-
vices, and a company of colored minstrels
from Alabama kindly consented to add to
the attractions of the celebration. Thus it
came to pass that at least half an hour be-
fore the appointed time the building was so
completely full that even the aisles were
crowded with people.
Bev. Miss Wilkinson approached the
Town Hall at precisely five minutes before
8 o'clock, and at once perceived that she
could never force her way through the peo-
ple to the stage. In this emergency one of
the town Trustees — ^Mr. Henry Barnes, a
man of unimpeachable veracity — ^proposed
that she should gain a rear window by
means of a ladder, and so ^ach the stage
without difficulty. To this proposal she as-
sented, and the ladder being procured, Mr.
Barnes held it while she cautiously
ascended to the window. He has
since testified that, in spite of the
utmost discretion on his part. Miss
Wilkinson's ostensible plumpness could
not escape his notice, and he repudiates
with scorn the suggestion that the fact
that the stripes were horizontal produced
upon him an impression of a plumpness
which did not really exist. There happened
to be a sharp nail projecting from the side
of the ladder near its upper end. and Mr.
Barnes asserts that Miss 'Wilkinson, hav-
ing gouged one of her — ^in short, having
come in contact with this nail, gave a little
.shriek which drew his attention to — . At
any rate he claims that it was not his fault,
and that lie was not the victim of a mere
ocular delusion.
The eloquent and plump reformer was re-
ceived by the audience with great applause,
and began a superb oration upon "Sinceri-
ty." She demanded that men and women
should be, above all things, sincere, and
should avoid shams and pretenses of all
kinds. Warming with her argument, she
walked to and fro upon the stage, and occa-
sionally stamped her foot with manly em-
phasis. Soon the audience began to notice
a curious deposit, of the color and genera
appearance of bran, which formed littie
ridges along the stage wherever the speaker
walked. It was also noticed that whenever
she stamped her foot, or remained in one
position for a few moments, a small mound
of the mysterious substance made
its appearance. After a time another
phenomenon created fresh astonishment.
Miss Wilkinson was obviously growing thin-
ner. Her dress hung loosely upon her, and
before long she presented the appearance
of a veiy thin school-girl wearing the
clothes of a>fat aunt. It was not until Miss
Wilkinson had wasted to an extent that
created unusual horror and dismay that she
herself noticed that anything was wrong.
As she cast her eyes downward she per-
ceived the deposits of bran. Instinctively
putting both hands to her waist, she felt
that her plumpness had vanished, and as
the full extent of her calamity flashed upon
her she sank in a fainting fit to the floor,
and was carried out by two Deacons — a
mere bundle of clothing inclosing a scarce-
ly perceptible quantity of female reformer.
The bras was swept up — there was nearly
a bushel of it — and a desperate attempt was
made to hush the matter up. Mr. Barnes,
however, could not 'be bribed to silence, and
the scientific men who accept his explana-
tion bless the friendly nail which accident-
ally demonstrated that Miss Wilkinson is no
exception to the great law that all female re-
formers consist chiefly of bones.
The death of "Mme. Bestell" by her
own hand is a fit ending to an odious ca-
reer. The fact that such a woman should
have amassed i^perty to the value of three-
quarters of a million of dollars is a suf-
ficiently conclusive proof of the magnitude
of the ghastly traffic of which bLo was
the most notorious agent The fear
of punishment which drove even this hard-
ened criminal to- suicide ought to be
used to stop the honible trade of the men
and women whose advertisements are as
public as hers, though their victims may be
found in less elevated circles of society.
The New-York Herald has disgraced Ameri-
can journalism in many ways, but certainly
in none so flagrant as in this of sharing the
gains of known abortionists and procu-
resses. If the law cannot reach the news-
paper that carries into families the cards
of persons who foUow the hideous trade
of the woman who made a fortune out of
child-murder, it ought to at least be able to
make their business as dangerous to them-
selves as it is to society. A Police system
which leaves to private detective effort the
bringing to justice of so notorious a person
as Mme. Bestell is so obviously incapable
as to learve littie to be expected from that
quarter. Mr. Comstoce will have to rely
mainly on himself to finish the work he has
begun.

met is tbe Assembly Chamber this erening. The
Cbaitman. Mr. Tarry, read the reeolntloB.
and asked Mr. Snow, one of the eorreepond-

difference. Tbe eorrespandenta, be said, would ilka
tbe opportunity to substantiate tbe charges in tba

beglres.
The Assembly eoimpondent of The Tnixs, Mi

witness to the other side, but Mr. Fish said the ear.
respondents were on the dcfensiTe, and the Chair,
man ruled tbat the aSxmatlTe lay with theniL
Mr. Hale then examined the witness, who
in answer to bis questions testified tbat be liad not
written the paragraph referred to ; tbat be contrlb
uted no part to it, and had not known of its
existence nntH the morning of its appeat«sc&
Mr. Bale read from tbe tpeeeb which
Mr. I^b bad made in moving tbe adoption
of the reaolntion, tn which it waa charged that the
Assembly correspondent had, under instructions
from his office, persistently abused bim, and asked
tbe correspondent whether such was the case.
Tbe witness testified that he bad sevei
received such instructions or any instructions in-
imical to Mr. Fish from his official mpcrion, and
in answer to the question from Mr. Hale whether bs
bad been actuated by malice in any dispatches be had
written concerning Mi. Pish, tbe witness testified
tbat he had since tbe morning Hr. Fish made
his attack npon bim looked over the
files of Thx Totis for this year, to
see what had t>een written in the Albany eorreepand-
ence. He fonnd that beyond tbe mere^ incidental
refennce to Mr. Fish as introducing a bill or offer-
ing a resolution. Mr. Fish was spoken of
14 times; nine of these were bHet cblorleel
sketches of speeches made by falm in tbe Aaaembly :
two were friendly references to Mr. Fish: three wen
relations of proceedings in tbe House, in whleb Mr.
Fish was criticised, and in regard to this the witness
aaid he should be pleased to submit the files of Tax
Tiuxs to the committee for examination of thsea
articles.
Mr. Hale aaid tbat this still left unanswered tbe
question whether the witness had been actuated b)
malice. The witness replied emphatically tbat be
had not: tbat so far from this being &» case he had
always personally been on friendly terms with Mr.
Fish ; tbat though Mr. Fish and TBI Tnos wan
not good friends, yet as between the correapondant
personally and Mr. I^sh then had always been
friendliness, and that so tar from aesVlngoceaaioa
to abuse bim, witness bad been earatnl to avoid any
such thing.
Mr. Fish then rose to cross-examine tbe witness.
He inquired if the witness did not furnish to bis as.
sociate, the Senate eorrespondent, the informatioa
npon which the paragraph in question was based.
The witness replied that be not only did not furnish
tbe information, but ha had 'not the ali^itest Idea
tbat snch a paragraph had bees written
until Mr. I4sh rose in bis seat and read
it. Mr. Fish then proceeded to make
tbe utmost of such friendly lelations as had sub.
sisted between himself and tbe correspondent. Ha
began by inqniring whether the coirespoadent did
not know tbat there hsd been last Winter a quarrel
between ihe editors of TBI Tiuzs and himself. [FisbJ
The rcorrespondent replied that it was a mactar <4
public notoriety tbat tneie had been a dlspnla be-
tween Thx Tncis and Mr. Fish about legislation last
year. Mr. Fish said be wasted to know about the
editors, whether the witness did sot know tbat then
wiu a personal qoarrel betwvwn Mm -wad
them. The witness replied that be did
not, further than related to pnblic affair*. Mr. Tiah
inquired if be would swear that he did sot know tfiat
be IFlsh] bad written to the proprieton of TH«
TiMZS an abusive letter about Its chisf.^ editor t
Tbe w<tness replied tbat be had f oreottan tbe^dremn-
ataoee, but now remembered that Mr. Fish ttad him-
self informed him of tbat tact. Mr. Hale fsqniied
of tbe -witness whether this abuslvn and nn-
gentleoumly letter, as spoken of, was nM
written to Mr. George Jones about the
editor because Tex Tmxs had eiltieiaed
the Ic^alative actions of Mr. Fish. Tbe wltaees
lapUad that it was. Mr. Fish then pnoeedad to
imanion the witness about fragmonu of eonvena-
ocsi which had taken place between himaelf and tba
irttneas last year. Mr. Bale protested aoatnst this,
aaving tbat If there bad been any confidential eom.
iranicatioas between these two. It was not right *•
have them made pnblic in this way.
The Chalxnaii— Tbe questoins are allowable.
Tbe witness replied tbat k> far as be was eo»
eemed be had no objection to having all be had ever
aaid to Mx. Fish made public, but he could searoely
recollect suflleiently to testify under oath what ha
might or mi^t not have said in tbe way of off-faand
talk to Mr. Fish during a period of such sgitaiion as
the Legislative session of but year. Mr. Fish still
punuMhis Inqniries as to what the witness bad
ever at any time said to him, during tbe period of
their acquaintance, -with the obviotis purpoee of tr^
ing to show that the witness, through his friendly
feelings for him. [Fish.] had been unfaithful to hla
snoeriora. With this the examination of the Assem-
bly correspondent concluded.
At the close of Mr. Mills' testimony, Mr. Hal*
said it was proper that be ahonld state to tbe com,-
mictee what allegationa It vraa proposed to prove. .
There were eight disUsct statements of fact in the
article complained of, all of which bad
been declared by Mr. F]ah to be falsa.
The defendant proposed to prove six
out of tbe eight, and to show that then ««• -Jta- .
sonable grounds to believe that the other two van
true, although it might not be possibleto prove tham.
Mr. Fiab thcraght those two wen the material onea.
Mr. Bale nplicdthatwben Mr.Fiah roaetoa qnaatiao
of privilege be made no distinction, but proaouwed
them all bdse. Keitber did tbe reeolution anthoiliing
this investigation make any distinction, but called
upon tbe defendant to xnbstaatiata tbe allegatioaa.
Ihis be prt>poeed to do, ao far as be was able, and as
it would be necessary to summon witnesses, some of
them from a distance, he aaked that the further henr-
ing be postponed till Wednesday evening,
and that meantime subpoenas be iasoed to the
following witnesses in New. York City : Postmaster
T. L. James, Thomaa Murphy, John Kelly, and
Louis F. Pays. Also to Senator Harris, Assemblv^
man Baker, and Insurance Snperintendent John F.
Smyth, of Alt>any. The request waa granted. Tlia
Seigeant-at'Arms was directed to serve the snb-
ranaa, and tbe examination was postponed to

Controller of the City of New-Tork. dated the 31tt
nit., sod idateeted to yoatael^ bnt Snt appearinc to
tbepablla In the poiiisslen of WDllam M. Tweed

••Mr. ralrefalld did stato to me that he wooU die-
ebaige Mr. Tweed if he made a (ail eonteislon
and aairandand nls prmerty." As this Is
the first time that thia eUun has been made by
Tweed'e Mends it ia proper that I should notice Ic.
Mr. Kelly la mistaken, and tills statement is false—

woold the Attomey-Oeneral get his anthortty to

aton r* 1 did not wish to ask for a " confassloii"
ftom Tweed. What I old wlah was eridenee which
eoald be need to theeonrtaforthe pnblle benefit,
and wUdI sbonld be so ssefnl as to lostity the dis-
liagfMt Tweed. Whether the erldenee (smished
by Toraad wonld be each or not, the Attorney-Oeo-
eral eoold not Jndge nntil he had seen it. when I
didseeitldeliheratel^bntmoatdeddadly, came to
Uw: eonelnslon that Tweed did not after eridenee
the naa of wiiieh would at alt Jnstify tha consent of
the Attorney-General to his discharge. Fnrther-
moea, neither Tweed nor his eonnsel cmered or as-
■nmad to fnmlsh me a "fnll confession." What
waa famished to ma waa an nnajsned doemnent.
beiac apparently a statement by Tweed's eonnsel
of the evidence Tweed eoold famish. This I
eoBstdared woold be afanoat wortblsea either to
tlie State or to the City if teatlfled to In a
eonrt. ai^ even tliis statement Tweed has himself
sworn to be nntme in important particnlars. I
Bight stato many mora faets and reasons to show

D( Mr. KeQy. Among others, former statementa
9( both XeOy'a and Tweed's eonnsel. Bat it cannot
be neeeaaaiT that X should do so. What Mr.
Kelly may nare said to Mr. Tweed or his
eonnsel I do not know, and for that 1
am not teaponsible. Before the statement waa (ox-
oished to ma by Tweed's eonnsel I talked aomawbat
m this sabjeet with Mr. Kelly, thinking it daeto him
as a leading official aad inflnantlel dmen of Kew-
Tork Clt^ 1 did not aotborlaa htm to ear anything
to either xweed or hia eoonsal on my behalf or ia
any maanerto repreeeat me, nor did I at that time
sapnoaa that Mr. Kelly represented Tweed. Mr.
KeJiy concealed from me, and I was ignorant of the
(set which saheeqnentlyappearedtotestimony before
tha Hanate committee of which yon were a member,
that Mr. Kelly had been to conaaltation with
Twsed's friends npon the snUeet of his discharge
long before Tweed'e eonnsel first came to me, and
long befofe I first spoke to Mr. KeQy npon the sni>.
ject, and that he waa freqnantly consnlting with
Ibem dating the time that ba waa also consnlting
wirii me. All this was caiofally concealed from me,
both by Tweed, Ms eomisel, and by Kelly. It is not
dlfileoit now to infer their object in tills eonrse.

cemed. he had ent down the alldwatittsmade to hUL
and had caused them to be made over on the rednced
scale, bnt be had never once aaceeeded to indodnli
the lawyers to rednce their aHowanoee "
Mr. Scbultx sgato arose aad said that a ptomiaeat
maa to tbe leather trade died tofflo ydats agi>— many
there knew him— leaving an .estoto of abent (300,- .
000, and his Executors bed never yet>beea lAle to
get an accounttoKontof tbatconri,,ar throogh it,
although it was 15 years ago. He believed more then
20 lawyers had had fees or allowaneee out of that es-
toto to one way or another. Bnt that Was an
old ease. There were plenty df new cases of a
startbng chaiaetor, to which imbe^llea^bave died,
and others where minor hebs barataUenintotha
tender mercies of that court, and tbe tesalt was dis-
astrous to their property. It tbe people widantood
the extent of their wrongs, KeW-Tork lawyers and
the Surroftato wbolsengsgedlnltwlth t' eawoold
receive the condemnation of the people tor their
acts.
Mr. Spalding said he didn't hear Of anybody dvinc
now worth a million of dollars wltbout somebody
proposing at once to contest the w0l, no matter of
now dear; and sonnd, and dlspoelnt mtod thb teata-
tor may have been. The lawyers divide vrito the
Snrrogato and with each other, and they dlsdnoto
the esUM by taktog from tbe Snrrogato anowanees
to pay for their services to conteating. He thought
that uose who lltlgato thoaU be compelled to nay
toelr own expenses. The fittest tiilnc be hsid
known of latoly to connection with the Surrogato's
conrt was when Mme. Bestell out her throat. She
had led an Ignoble life and it seemed aproper aad
worthy rounding oS of her life that bar Qtgotten
gains should now be filtered through snA • ehaaael.
Mr. Fitch said he belonged to the prafsaslbn which
had just been condemned so genexoUy, bat ha* knew
that It was tme that toete were asuaoidlnary
allowsnces made to toe Surrogate's Conrt,
bnt there were other and he thought
graver abusee there. He had not bad a great deal of
Bualaeea to the Surrogato's Court, bnt ba bad had
enough to eonrtoee him that it needed tobe exam-
ined toto He was aware that it had dome to be
deemed la tills City that tbe Sorracato had almost
unlimited Jurisdiction— far beyond, that. which the
stotnto contemplated. One estato to this City,
amoontlng to some 9200,000 or t30O.O0O. waa h*.
slowed by will to vaiious persons in sucha way that
no one desired to contest the wHL Bnt that
did not prevent an attempt being made to throw that
eetate Into the Surrogate's Coart, and agolnat toe
earnest protest of everybody interested In It, it was
thrown toto litigation and was there i»day. The
Butrugato himeelt noted these proteate at tha time
they weie made. The case finally went toi tbe Oan-
eralTetm, and next to the Cont of Appeals, aad
thoee courta afllrmed the dangerous . prtoetole
that our Surrogates hove nnltanltsd Jntisdistlon.
He thought soma problbttory or aaAdatoty
legislation reetnettog this power 'waa nrTcntly
needed. Tbe ease he allndea to was that of toe
James B. Taylor estoto, aad his widow was a pauper
to-dsy, his gnnd-daugbter waa a paaper, every dol-
lar of the escue was squandered, end aBow-
anees of <75.000 bad been made from it to
lawyers. Under these men'e adailnlstration.
SOU seres of land on X^ong Island, bdongbiK to that
estate, and with tocombrancee of only #25,000 on
it, waa sold for $2,500. The fact waa. oa be had re-
maned to Jadge Davis Istely whoa speaklag oa this
subject, n man can't affoid now to die to New-Tork,
it he has propei^.
Mr. Sdmltasaidbe desired, at tbe suggeetionot
the Chair, to amend his resolution so that it might
.be leCeried to a special committee havlngmen on it of
courage and toe will to do the work; and he would,
aa another Instonee of his own experience,
here relate toat he knew a man who
was rich, who boo^t a place to Queen's Cooaty,
so that he might die there to ai|Bd tbe pasatog of
his estoto through our SurrogateTvonrt. He died,
however, to Kew-York, bnt his body waa taken to
Queens County and burled there, sad bis will waa
fllad to Queene County, and his eetato went toto toe
hands of tooee to whom he daetred it sbonld go.
The Chairman said that to this aiatter it would be
well fOr gentlemen havtog fkcU to eonaoaleate to
show sonM courage to givtog them to the eonunittee.
The reeolution was amended and adopted, and toe
following gentlemen were appointed as the commit,
-tee to rep«t cm the subjeet: Messrs. Ilteh. Schnltx,
leases, Spaldini^ and Bmkaw.
A debate, nrtldpated to by Mcssia. Eaton,
Sehnlti, Spalding, and other (entlemen, followed
on the coarse of the XjCglslatom to respect to the
constitotlonal amendments, to which the LegUa-
tuie to general and SenAtor Conkllng to parttealar
were Ttirr severely crlttelaM.

. Hi. ^nUiom T. Booth, the second member of the
' firjajasda the following statement to a reporter of
"Tin-Tlias yesterday afternoon : " This suspension
ba beea dictated by oar aaa ot justice. Webave
tone OB ia budiieu a long a we could properly.
W« have lost our own money, bnt we do not propose
dtbatojeopsrdlaor loa cntlnly toe mnney.of
other necple. We have aot been ednwted to do
that. TFor 12 months past we have conducted
tha l^aslnsa of sugar refining at a loss, aad this haa
totesd as to sti^ and look about. Oar actioa hu
aot beea nddealydetenatoed upon. The members
'at the fina eonsalted togetoer on Satutdav last as to
tha eoacM to be pursued, but came to no deflnlta
daddon. They aparatad with the naderstaading
.that each- ahonld consider the matter care-
fally on Sunday, and, having come to a
'decision, should stoto that decision at a
consultation to be held on Monday morning.
' 'Wlian.toer met ogoto this momtng [Monday] it wan
toaad that toeie wa but one opinion among them;
that tbe only honorable eonra to pursue wa to sus-
pend aseertato the real dtnation of the firm, and
aObtWard act a circamstances might dictate. It
wIU be seen that this eouise was not forced
npoo us by ulterior drramstonas, a we
enjoyed abundant credit. The lat note we
laued wa discounted at 6 per rent., and
the one before that at 4>fi percent." Mr. Booth
also .Mated that the firm had dways pursued
a conservative course, had never speenlated to raw
sugars, sad hsd at dl times tried to act falriy and
hoalMiy. If there wa any proepect of Im-
provement to the sugar trade, he said, they
adgbt have gone on, but there was none,
and suepension wa the only fair expedient.
. In respome to a qnatlon u to tbe liabilities of
toe ilim. Mr. Booto sdd he did not know toem, m
toe books have not beea exxmlned. Hewaaitsln,
however, that the asnts win be snSldeat to settle
oil the UatilUtla and leave nmething for the mem-
bets of toe firm.
Mr. Feters, toe junior member of the firm, said
be eoold not understand what was the mstter with
^the sugsr trade. A crau appars to hare come over
It, anw-it'Is iaiposdble for refiners to go oa wito
basinea while latng halt a cent per pound on ausar.
Among the sugar traders, all or whom appeared to
sympatma wlto Booth A Edgar. It was reported yes-
terday toat the UabiUtia ot the .suspended firm will
•ggtwate 97BO.OOO. Among the asa^s Is a large
amount of real estote, including one of the best
equipped refineria in toe vldnlty of tols
City: All this red estato It sdd to
be nnlacnmbered, except toe ground npon
udildi toe rellnerj Is built. Upon this there
isamoitgage of 923,000. The reason tor the ex
letence of this mortgage, one of toe members ot the
firmVald yesterday. Is tha whsn the ground wa
bought ite owner, a widow. Insisted thst it wa
safer for her to allow part ot the pnrchae-money to
temato toveeted to a lien npon the property
than . .to - take the chance ot another in-
vectment. The firm, numored her, telling
her she could call for her money at any time she
wished It. There Is at preunt no probability thst
Booth A Edgar win make an aatgnment, and it seems
likely that toe firm will, to toe nar future, after
having caretoUy adjusted ita affairs, start anew In
business.
The firm of BoothftEd^srwas established In 1834.
Mr. Bdgar. wboa name Is still part of toe title of
the firm, has been dead for some years, and the pres-
ent members of the firm are William A. Booth. Wil-
liam T. Booth, and J. Hugh Peters. Mr. 'Rllllam A.

tsvorably. torongh hla phUantoopfar to the

yea^ been one of the most earnest
wdraen in enterprlsa of charity, and It is torongfa
his dforta principally that the Childreu'a Aid 80.
tiotr ha been enabled to do so much good work.
He ba beea laterested to political sffdrs also, but
aot aa aa ofllce-holder or ofSee-aeker. He wea a

The old-estobUshed firm of commission mer-

The firm, being unable to redlze on large Invat-
iBeiita,'Were unable to mat nota which fdl due

limiting the liability ot stocUiolden and eoipora-

footing np about two to one to favor of each amend,
ment. Retoms from toe State at large on this point

ot toese Spring elections when persond and
local questions and side issues of all Kinds become

nave held their nwn, except that in some localities
the new Nationals have develoi>ed considerable
strength. They have carried Jackson, Coldwater,
Hsstlnzs, and Vanr by very decided majorities.
In Lansing toey fused with the Democrata and
won a de<^ed victory. They have also polled a
good many scattering votes, bat the precise extent
of the strength manifated by them cannot be esti-
nuued to-night."

A. deelalon was ^ven by Jadge Lawxenes, In
Sapmaia Coart, Ohamben, yesterday, ia the matter
«f the application of John J. Westray fora maadamea
agalaat Mayor Ely, to compel him toreinstatothe
fbmeraa one of the Oommlsdooera of Aeeoantt.
Mr. Westiay waa appointed to theooaltlon on Jan. 21,
1S7S, aod waa noaoTed ^ JIayor Zly on Aag. 3,
1877. When he went to aee the Mayor aa to the
eaaaeof the remoral he waa informed that tiiiaTasi-
manr party- haa -wanted the poattion aad that
he had giren It to tbem. Mr. Weatray broaght
his proeeedias ander seetton 25 of the char-
ter of 1873. Jadge Lawreneat in a memorapdam
of hla dedsioB, says : " The relator waa not a head
of one of thb deputmenta -within toe meaning of the
diaitar, aad eonaeiiaently the prorlaiana of aaetioa

tion 106 ptOTides that the Mayor ahail, from time to

who. togistheir with the Treslwnt ofthe Department
of Taxaa and Atseasments, shall be Comaussloners
of Aeeonnta. The Mayor, at his plaaaars. remored
the relator. The argument made by the relator's
coansal that toe Mayor In making the rsQOTal did
not act at hispleasnie, bat yielded tothe soUdta-.
tiens of others, has no force. He waa Tcated -with
the power and exercised it. The court cannot in
tola proceeding inqidre into the motire which in-
duced his action. Motion denied."
THE out AND SEW STOCK EXCSAiraES.
Mr. Henry Meigs, President of the New- York
Stock Exchange, said yesterday that the Exchange
has not formally requested the Gold and Stock Tele-
graph Company to remoTe its instruments from the
"bucket shops." If. howerer, the ccmipany doea not
take them away. It -will undoubtedlr eommit a breach
of good faith toward the Exchange, upon whoso floor
It procures the qnotatlona It snppllas to toe " bucket
shopa." The followiag drenlar waa yesterday dis.
tilhutad on ■■ toe Street :"
"Naw-TOBK, April 1, 1878. ^
" The Kew-Tork Stock Exchange haa been trying fot^
soma time to effectually doae those estobllshments
known as "bucket shops "and "blackboard ooera.
tora," but np to the present without success. If the
members of ttae8toek Exchange, bankers, brokers,
and the public generally, would only warn their
derfca acalnst having anytoing to do wito all sodt
Pisces, the discontinuance of todr custom woald be
very effeetoai in dosing toenf up, aahall of toelr
bnunesa Is done by the clerks of toe members of the
board. This warning might aaremany young men
from apeenlating in money which doea not betong to
them."
The membera of toe New-York Metropolitan Ex-
change met yesterday morning at No. 38 Broad-
street, and dected the following board of offleera:
Frealdant, John Biston ; -Vlee-Ctaairman, E. A. Mont-
ford ; Seeretaiy, Jamea M. Mills ; Treasurer, 'W. A.
ETUna. The purpose of toe new exchange, aeeofding
to a prospectus, is to enable broketa to^al In any
nnmoer of shares ftrom fiTe upward.
BsviAL coubvct ur a BTAOX.
On Friday afternoon last, as Oi&cer Smyth, of
toe Twenty-flfto Prednet, waa atanding at the cor-
ner of Broadway and SeTenteento-^treet, he was
called by toe drlrer cf Fifto-Avenue stage No. 90 to
arrest a young man — one of the paaaengera to the
atage — ^whom he charged -with Indecent exposure.
There were seTeral ladles Intoe stagOi but ther im-
mediatdy left toe vehicle and refused to appear aa
witnesses or to make any stotoment to regard to toe
affair. Offieer Smyto made toe arreat, howeTer, and
toe prisoner was arraloned before Justice Duify, at
Jefferaon Market Police Court, where toe dnrer

Washihotoh, April 2.— The Hoose, to-
da^took up the caw of Door-keeper PoO, whom
theVonnnlUee on Ciril Serriee Beform have
laTetftigsted itnd fonnd gniltj of gross iiregn-
larities and tmlswfal pnustlees. The friends of
the Doorkeeper nude a strasgle to prsTent the
eoDsldention of tlie matter, Irat were raa-
qniahed on i yea and nay Tote. Carter Har-
riaoa. Chairman of the Committee, made a
speech ia which he earnestly advocated the rea-
olation reported by the majail^ of the ooramtt-
tce declaring the ofice of Door-keeper
▼aeant He qnoted from the evidenee
taken by the eommittee to show that
Polk had more men on the pay-rolls
than are aothorixed by law ; that he shaTcd the
salaries of tome offlcers to praride money to pay
people who nhoold not hare btien on the rolls,
and that he had men en wbab is known as the
" soldiers' reU" who had never been in the mili-
tary or naval servioe. A nomber of Democrat-
io members attempted to annoy and disconcert
Mr. Harrison by a^kia j him qaestions and In-
terjecting irrelevant reaiarks, bat he could not
be diverted from exposing the iseompeteney
and shortcomings of Polk, and managed to
present saoh a strong ease asainst the Door-
keeper that thcs3 Democrats who hi^re been
denonneing official eormpt^on, and howling
aboat dishonesty iu the public service, will And
ItdifSonltw explain any defense of him they
may attempt to make. Hr. Ellsworth, a Repub-
lican meniber from nUnoi?, wto is somewhat of
an oratorical nnl-tuice, wrs prominent in the ef-
fort to throw ridieule upon Hr. Harrison be-
cause of hla eoQzse to regard t> ihj Doorkeeper,
and while he soeeeeded in amn^lng those Dem-
ocrats who desire lo sert en Polk by annoying
Harrison, he excited the disgust of the majority
on both sides of the House, and made himself
ridiculous in the ejti of the spectators in the
galleries. Upon the cone'ns'on of Hr. Hsirrl-
Bon's speech the House adjonmed. leaving the
matter pending as ucfiaisbed busineas. The
friends of Polk are doing aU ihat is possible to
delay action upon his rase, but it is pretty cer-
tain they will not succeed i^ saving him from
dismimwl.

■Washikgton, April 2.— The soheme
tor th^-imrroVement of the Harlem Biver,
which 'has bsen so ODtuiogly advocated by
Hr. benjamin fVilUs, of New-York, will.
In aU probability, be successful. It will
Im remembered that it is proposed to connect
the Hudson Biver and the Long Island Sotmd
by cutting a ship Canal to be IS feet
deep below low water. According to estimates
made by Gen. Newton, the entire improvement
will cost $2,300,000. To-day tbe Committee
on Commerce decide I to recommend that
$150,000 be apprcpriated for beginning the
work. A bill looking to this end has already
been three times introduced by Mr. Wnils, and
as many times, from one cause or another, de-
feated. He has persevered, however, and, in
spite of many dif&culties, seems at last to be
aesured of success.
That distinguished eitism, Montgomery Blair,
was in Washington to-day, and apparently
greatly elated over the passaze by the Maryland
Legislature of his resolutions locking toward
the unseating of President Hiyes and Yioe--
President Wheeler. Should iha resolution be
signed by the Governor of Mar/land, as now
seems probable, the next act in the farce will be
Iha introduction to Congress of a bill to enable
the Attorney-General of Maryland to appear in
the Supreme Court of the United States to ask
that effect be given to the electoral vote of
Uarylaad by directing that the electoral vote of
[x>alsiana and Florida be counted for Tilden
md Hendricks. This, it is claimed, can be done
ander the provl-ions of the Eleotoral Count
bill. Mr. Blair evidently regards himself as a
ir«ry great man, and he is sure— at least, he says
he is sure— that Tilden will be in the White
House before the year is out.
The Committee on Ways and Means to-day
reported a bill providing for the payment of
the interest on the District of Columbia 3.65
bonds as the same become due. These bonds,
principal and interest, are guaranteed by the
United States, but Congress has failed to make
permanent arrangementa for the payment
of the Interest, which is payable seml-annn-
jHy. Two years i«o the interest was in
lefniabyreaK>nof Congress failing to make
the necessary appropriation. The bill Intro-
dnoed to-day would prevent any default in fu-
ture, and provides that the Interest shall be
paid regularly by the United States Treasurer
at Washington and New-York. A certain por-
tion of the tax on the real estate of the district
is annually paid Into the United States Tressniy
to pay the interest en these bonds and to create
a sinking fund for their redemption. The bUl
was referred to the Committee of the Whole on
k point of order.

which followed Senator EMmnnds paid his
respeeto to the lobby in tiie most vigorous style,
declaring, among other filings, that he had
known of railway passes being distributed in
the Senate pending the passage of important
imHroad legidation, and had heard that 60 cents

careful to remark, was some time ago!^ Senator

The State Department reporta that recently

on reqniaitloQ made, returned a herd of stolen cattle
to their Texas owners, and took stepa to punish the
thievea. Aa this is tlie flrat inatanceof the kind tliat

they were not advertised for ■ at the Jefferson

Biver. This ia the principal army depot of Quarter-
master's stores, ana supplies the entire Army east of

bnishes, bnt uses itself very few. As there are
5,000 hnildiDga under charge of the Quartormaster'a

bruabea a year are not considered an extfaveeant

LoKDON, April 3. — The eoirespondent of
the I>ailjf TeJe^ropfc at 'Vienna says: "A
dispatch from Cotut yon Benst, the Aus-
trian Ambassador at London, received here,
states that Lords Beaeonsfleld and SaUshtuy
earnestly desire the 'maintenance of peace,
bnt if Russia's attitude should render 'war
a necessity, it 'Will be carried on until
resistance is crushed. Ne'ws from St
Petersburg as to the result of Gen.

extent settle the question of peace or war. Is
houriy expected. It is not probable that
Gen. IgnatieS will return to this city. Lord
Salisbury's circular has increased the friendly
dispgsition here toward England. Germany is
doing everything possible to rev>e the con-
gress scheme."
The lelegraph't correspondent at Pera under-
stands that the Austrian Embassy there has re-
ceived a dispatoh to the etfeet that Austria
must support England's demand for the full dis-
cussion of the provisions of the treaty with a
view to some important modifications.

London, April 2. — The following is the
portion of Lord Sallsbtiry's circular to the
powers, verbatim, in which he objects to
the Treaty of San Stefano as a whole:
"The combined effect of the treaty. In
addition to the resulta upon the Greek popula-
tion and upon thfe balance of maratime power,
which have been already pointed out. Is to de-
press almost to the point of entire subjection
the political independence of the Government
of Constantinople. The formal jurisdiction of
that Government extends' over geographical
positions which must, under all elreumstances,
be of the deepest Interest to Great Britain. Itia
inthepowerof theOltoman Government to dose
or to open the stralta which form the natural
highway of nations between the .Sgean Sea
and the'Euxine. Ito dominion is recognized at
the head of the Persian Gulf, on the shores of
the Levant, and In the immediate neighbor-
hood of the Suez CanaL It cannot be
otherwise than a matter of extreme solicitude
to this country that the Government to which
this jurisdiction belongs should, be so closely
pressed by the political outposte of a greatly su-
perior power thatitaindependentaction.audeven
existence, is almost impossible. These resulte
arise, not so much from the language of any
single article in the treaty as from the operation
of t'ne Instrument as a whole. A diseossion
limited to articles selected by one power In the
congress would be an illusory remedy
for the dangers to English Interests,
and to the permanent peace of Europe,
which would result from the state of things
which the treaty proposes to establish." The
foregoing seems to show the utter Impossibility
of a compromise between England and Russia
on the basis of the San Stefano treaty.
'Vienna advices represent tbat the Austrian
objections are not less fatal to the existence of
the treaty than England's. Reverting to Gen.
Ignatieff's mission from this standpoint, the
Timai' Vienna corresoondent says : " His com-
ing hither was a direct invitation to Austria
to state her objections to the various
stipulations of the treaty, which was done with
the utmost frankness, so that, whether the con-
gress ultimBtely meeU or not, Russia is now able
to judge, how far and in what way the treaty
can be reconciled, in the opinion of Austria,
'with the latter's Interesto and those of
Europe. . I say European as well as
Austrian, because, although Austria, as a border
State, doubtless has specitic interests in the
settlement of one or the other point, still the
question in its main bearings has always been
looked upon as eminently European.
In spite of her speciflc Interests, or.
perhaps, on that very account, Atistria,
more than any other country, is in
a position to see not only the immediate effect
bnt the ulterior bearings of each stipulation of
the treaty, and to Dolnt out where they affect
Europe in general."
Tbis apparent agreement between Austria
and England caused an iiitproved tone on the
London and otlier Bourses yesterday, on the
theory that Russia must give way before such a
combination. But it may be doubted whether
this iinpresaion will be sustained in the face of
Lord Salisbury's sweeping objections, for the
Austrian riews, which could hardly be more an-
tagonistic to the whole treaty, are said by the
Timet' St. Petersburg correspondent to be re-
nrded there as so exorbitant tbat the Russian
Chancellery, to prevent an offensive alliance
between Austria and England, is about'
to make another attempt to come
to terms with England. At 'Vienna
hopes are still entertained that the congress
may meet. Nothing occun to indicate the feel-
ing at Berlin. A dispatoh to the Timet from
that capital says that Prince Bismarck is
going to his Lauenburg estates shortly, unless
detained j>y the Eastern question. It is stated
from Vienna and St. Petersburg, on unusually
good authority, that Russia Is irritated by
a rebuff from France. The latter, being ap-
proached for a separate recognition of the
Treaty of San Stefano, replied Uiat she woold
not partidphto in a combination against Eng-
land.
The IXmei in ite leading editorial article says :
" The Government's conviction tbat the terms
extorted from Turkey are inconsistent alike
with the interests of England and Europe 'will
he sustained by the pnUic opinion of the coun-
try." ,

St. Petebsbubo, April 2.— Oen. Ign&tieff

maintains that his mission has not failed, as he
was simply Instmeted to give and receive
friendly explanations. Relative to the attttudje of
England, the Agtnee says Riissia cannot do
more to faoillteto the meeting of a congress.
Her means of persuasion cease at the point
where care for her dignity commences.
London, April 2.— The seml-ofBcial Eatt-

dispatoh from 'Vienna: "Gen. Ignatiefl was
Informed by this Government that It re-
quires certain alterations to be made In
the peace preliminaries, and suish alterations
must be made with the concurrence of the
other powers. There is no prospect, therefore,
of F■^lglalll^ being Isolated, and the abtloa of

London, April 2. — ^The latest adviees
from Constantinople, dated April 1, evening,
say: "A strong conrictton prevails at the
Russian head-quarters that an Anglo-Russian
war is Inevitable. It is reported that Russia
has offered to cancel the money indemnity and
increase Turkish powers over new Bulgaria as
a reward for an aUianoe, but these offers have
not led to any result.
"The Grand Duke Nicholas held a reception
of the diplomatic body on Sunday. The Brit-
ish and French Ambassadors sent their cards.
The Grand Duke returns to hts head-quarters
at San Stefano on Wednesday."
Mesnwhile, Lord Salisbury's references in his
drenlar to the Interests of the Greeks and to
the condition an^prospecte of Turkey are not
^icnlated to make the Porte hold aloof from the
Russians. He says : " The object of the Con-
stantinople conference was to preserve
Turkey by reforming her. This policy
was frustrated by the unfortunate resistance
of the Ottoman Government itself, and, under
the altered elroumstences of "the present time,
the same result cannot be attained to the
same extent by the same means. Large
changes may, and no doubt will, be
.requisite in the treaties by which south-
eastern Europe has hitherto been ruled, but
good government, assured peaee and freedom
for the populations to whom those blessings
have been strange are still the objecta which
England earnestly desires to secure."
The Timet has a Bucharest spedal saying:
" Opporition, to the retrocession to Russia of
Bessarabta is growing In Intensity. The
weather Is very fine and warm. Unless ener-
getie disinfecting Is promptly carried out along
the military roads In Bulgaria and Roumaiiia,
a fri^tful pestilenee is likely to break out."
The Danube has been officially declared open
and free of danger between Abrail and
Sulina.
Vienna, April '2.— A special to the Politieal
Oorretpondenet from Constantinople reporte
that the Bussisns have commenced a fresh
movement toward GallipoU. The Russian
troops north of the Balkans are being moved
nearer the Danube. The Russians are every-
where erecting fortlfleations.
London, April 3. — ^The Standard has the fol-
lowing from Constantinople: "The Russians,
fearing that the Turks will endeavor to main-
tain neatrality, M. Onou, first dragoman of
the Russian embassy, has made the follnwihg
demands, which may ^ regarded as an ultima-
tum : Abandonment to the Russtans of the for-
tifications on both sides of the Upper Bospborus
and Gatlipoli and Boalalron the Dardanelles. The
Turiu ate also to evacuate Makrikeni and Mas-
lak, and place some barracks and hospitals at
the disposal of the Russiana The Grand Duke
Nicholas last night urged these demands t^pon
Reouf Pasha, and they will be submitted to the
eounOl. It is said that the Sultan and Vefyk
Pasha oppose tbem."
A correspondent of the Timet at San Stefano
recounta an interview with the Grand Duke
Nicholas, who said be bad reason to knon-
that the Sultan would gladly see his terri-
tory freed of Russians and English. If the
English fleet left, the Rassians would
immedlatelv begin to embark. The Grand
Duke still hoped tbat war might be avoided
through the peaceful disposition of the Czar and
the good sense of the English.
A Belgrade special to the Timet says it is
reported that the Servians, by the com-
mand of Russia, 'will shortly occupy
Widdin and Adakaleh. Austria Is like-
ly to protest against the occuT>ation
of the latter place. 'The feeling in Servian Gov-
ernment circles Inclines to Austria rather than
Russia, and a willingness is even expressed to
make a military convention with the former.

cleA, and also his driver, were shot dead this
momingwhiledriring near his loMshlp's lodge.
Manor Vaughan, County of Derry.
London, April 2. — ^In the Hotise of Commons
to-night, Mr. Lowther, Under Colonial Secre-
tary, conflrmed the report of the shooting of
the Kari of Leltrim, and said -there 'was reason
to suppose that the crime 'was one of ansgnrian
character.
The Earl was shot opporito a cottage from
which be had recently evicted a widow. Eighty-
nine of his tenanta were under notice to quit.
The Earl's body was found in a dltoh. The left
side of his head was battered In. It is thought
he was also shot in the head, bnt the fatal shot
was through the heart. The left arm was broken
and the right completely shattered. Tbe driver
and clerk were shot in the bead. The ground
where the murder was committed showed traces
of a hard struggle. A fowling-piece and pan of
another gtin were found near the spot. Three
or four men were seen loitering in the neighbor-
hood before tbe oceorrence of tbe murder.
[William Sydney Clements, third Eari of Lel-
trim, was bom in 1806, and succeeded his fath-
er, Dec. 31, 1854. The late Earl owned consid-
erable landed nroperty in the Counties of Lei-
trim and Donegal, in the Province of Ulster, Ire-
land, and his murder is no doubt due to some
trouble which arose between himself and some
of his tenants. He bad the reputation ofdwing
what is known in Ireland as a " hard" landlord.
In politics be was a Tory of the old school, and
sat in tbe House of Lords as Baron Clements,
of Ellmacrenan, County Donegal. He
was a LientenanlrColonel In the Army,
and a Msgistrate for several counties. The
deceased Earl wss never married, and he is suc-
ceeded in bis title and estates by his brother,
Hon. Capt. Charles Skeffington Clementa, who
was bom in 1807. The new Earl is also un-
married, and the title and estates will at his
death descend to his nephew, Robert Berming-
ham Clementa, who 'was bom on March 5,
1847.]
THE CUBAN SUBBEXDEB,

SPANISH OFFEB OF LIBEBTY TO SLAVES
IN INSUBOENT BANKS.
Havana, April 2. — The insurgent Genersl,
Roloff. was visited to-day by tbe agent of the
Associated Press. He said he was in the cam-
paign during the whole Insurrection, and capitu-
lated in obedience to the ordera of the Cuban
Camera. The motives of the Camara for mak-
ing peace are unknown to him. He had
2.000 persons about him, 800 of them
armed, when he capitulated. The dause in
the peace conditions liberating slaves in the in-
surgent ranks did the greatest damage to the
insurrection, obliging the chiefs to surrender
because tbe negroes would fl^bt no longer.
Since tbe arrival of Qhn. Martinez-Campos in
the island the Spanish troops had forced tbe
insurgents to keep constantly moving, and after
his arrival no insurgents captured were shot or
executed. During the whole insurrection about
30 desertera from the Spanish ranks came into
Gen. RolofTs lines.

Detboit, April 2. — Fuller rettims from yes-
terday's State election show that tbe National Party
made very unexpected developmenU of strength in
different parts of the State. In places where they
had not oiganlxed the usual mixed resulta are re-
ported, but every county that baa had active Green-
back workers and papers yields a large harvest of
votes. Grand Rapids, the second dty of tbe State,
was swept by them, and they have a ma-
jority of the Board of Saperviaora of tiiat
county. In the City of Jackson they
defeated a fusion of Republicans and
Demonataledby tbe strongest men of both par-
ties. Barry County, usually Republican by 500
majority, they have earried by over 700 majority.
In Van Buren County they also control the Board
of Supervisors. They further carried the considera-
ble towns of Hastings, Buchanan, Cold Water,
Hillsdale, Adrian. Midland, Vaanar, Paw Paw, Jnnes-
ville. Mason, and Big Alliancr, wiiile tlie Drmona^s
won in Lansing, Battle Creek, and Flint. In
this county IWavne] they faAve carried a majority of
the towns outdde of this dty, sweeping some of
tbe old Demoeratie strongholds. In Hillsdale and
Lenawee Counties, which are Bepnbiican strouc-
holds, they have msde like gains. Their leaders
here are exultant, and talk loudly of tbeirorospects.
but data are not yet at hand to satisfoctorilv esti-
mate tbeir real strenctti, or which -of the regular
parties haa yielded them the largest number 'of
recruits.

CiNCTONATt, April 2. — Gentlemen who arrived
here this afternoon from Gallipolis, Ohio, state that
CoL Vance twfore leaving home borrowed large sutns
of money from his relstives and business acqualnt-
anees. The amoant that he succeeded in obtain-
ing is estimated to be not less than $15,-
000, and it may reach $20,000. His two
brothera-lu-law, who are now in pursuit of
him, are among the losers. It is reported by the gen-
tlemen froin Gallipolis that there is a woman in the
case. About tbe time CoL Vance left home the wife
of a musie-teaeher, who is famous for her personal
diarma, also disappeared. Her name had been con-
nected with tbat of CoL Vance by current gossip,
but the stories were not believed by the latter's
friends. This womsn has been heard from at St.
Lonls, whither Vance is known to have gone, and the
facts are being developed daily Rbich go to show tiiAt
the two have taken flight together. CoL Vance is
connected by marriage with one of the most respect-
able families in ^ontb-eastem Chin, and hns liitherto
home an unsullied reputation. His credit was so
high in Cincinnati tbat be could have obtained large
sums of money, bad he eiven himself time. Tlie de-
velopments of tlie past day cause great astonisiimeut
among liis personal friends here.
THE SPRING ELECTIONS.
OHIO.
Cincinnati, April 2. — ^Returns from the elec-
tion in Ohio yesterday indicate that a light vote was
polled. Many of the local questions at issuo put
polities aside In many places. In the larger towns
and dtles — Cleveland, Portsmouth. Athens. Mount
Vernon. Delaware, Bellefontaine, and Cambridge —
the Republicans either csrried the day or secured a
large gain. In Columbus. Dayton. Hamilton, Spring*
Add, Toledo, Newark, and Urbana, the
Demoerata were ahead. The National Party was de-
feated in Toledo. The lateat figures from
the Cincinnati election, with four wards incom-
plete, indicate the election of D. Baker, Republican,
to the Board of Public Works by 2,900 majority;
Harmon, Democrat. Judge of tbe Superior Court, by
2.600 majority ; iSmiloT. Democr.-t. Clerk of the Po-
lice Court, by a small majority, and Baker, Demo-
crat, County Solicitor, by 500 majority. The Coun-
cil will likely be Ropublican, and the Board of Alder-
men Democratic. The Nationals devdoped but little
strength.
ToLKDO, April 2. — ^At the municipal election in
'this dty yesterday the Democrats elected tbeir Street
Commissionerand the whole of their city ticket by

CHICAOO, April 2 — Midnight,— At this hour few
wards have sent in full returns, bnt from what
is received it is evident the Council will
loss some of ita best members, snd
their places will be supplied witti less
creditable selections. Out of 18 wards 15 have
been heard from with sulBcient completeness
to base an opinion upon. In these it seems that
nine Democrats, five Republicans, and one Communist
have been eleeted. Prom the towns the returns are
even lees decldve. It is, however, pretty cer-
tain that the Republicans have 'elected tlieir
tickets iu Soutbtown, and there are prospeeta of a
Republican victory in Northtown. while West-
town is in doubt. The friends of municipal reform
are disappointed st the result of the election of the

The (Treat Women's Hotel, projected by, and
finished aocordioff to Uie eiqirened wishetof the
late AlexMider T. Stewart, wa« formaUy opeued laat
aigbt. The ooeailon was pxobably the zsoat tariUiral
of the kind ia. the history of the eottXH i
try. The event liad been anticipated yrith \
Creat curiosity by a lazge nnmber of
people. ETerybody wanted to see tbe inside of tbe
massive bnndtng. abont which ao mneh had been
said. The maenifleenee of its proportions bad been
admired, and hints of its snperb interior had bem
given to the pablle from time to time. To throw the
doors open to the public withont restriction was onl
of the question. Mrs. StewarU therefore, issned
13.000 tickets of invitation, eaeh of which wenld
admit a lady and gentleman. At 8 o'clock last
erentng the main entrance on Foarth-aveniM watf
besieftedbyaboQt 1,500 persons, and evnynreet-
ear arriving was increasing the throng. The doort
were opened and the ^ests b^an to ponr in. The
hotel was brilUantly iUnminated from oeUar to the
topmost floor, and the tier* of Ucht were visible fot
blocks in every direction. A force of Poliee
had been stationed abont the building, bnt
the inereaainc [crowd was not of the sort that needed
Police regulation. Carriages drove np, and pai ties oi
ladies and gentlemen alighted, the street cars ar-
rived from down town &nd up town densely crowded,
and tbe troops of neople who emerged from them
soon formed a compact mass abont the hotel thai
numbered at tuies 3,000 or 4,000. Many of these
impatient of the delay in entering, passed aronnj
to the Thirty-third-street side, where they towoA'
ready access. From 8 o'clock until after 10 tberust' .
was steady. As the throngs entered they passed -ug
the main staircase to the prino^psl floor, where, ii
the main parlor, Mrs. Stewart, Judge ffllton. and
tbe members of his family received their personal
friends in tbe most eordial manner. Befort
tbe doors had been opened half an hons
tbe balls were filled with a compaeC
mass of people, who moved steadily aloim
from corridor to corridor, np the broad stairways,
and through the sumptuous apartments. As the;
passed along, and for the first time the rich anpoint
ments of the boose l>ecame revealed, expressions ol
admiration were heard on every hand. Every jirom*
ise that had been made appeared to have been f nV
filled. Every apartment was found to be complete
comfortable, even luxurious.
At 9 o'clock the view from the court within the
building was one calculated to excite enthusiasm is
the most indifferent beholder. The fountain in the
centre of the yard glittered and sparkled in the Ugfati
shed from hundreds of windows In the tieta of suf
rounding stories. Looking np at these win
don-r the crowd below saw the halli
and apartments swarming with ladies and gentlemen
aud the stairways crowded with movine masses ol
hac]aii beinirs. In and ont of the basemcDt en
trances there poured a constant stream of men an^
tromen curions to inspect the appointments iu tbi
kitchen, the laundry, and the store-rooms, one
even the great boilers came in for a ahan
of insnection and admiration. Up stairs, thi
dining-room, with its bripbt silver service and iti
almost eqnally brilliant array of colored servants,
was cron-ded almost to suffocation. The parlor wai
almo5:t impassable, and many cave up tbe attempt
io reach it after repeated ineffectual efforts tc
force a way through the good-natured crowd.
The library came in for a larjie share
of the (renem.1 approvaX and its briirht and comfort-
flble a.spect will undoubtedly prove a permanent at-
tmctlon to its public mests. A number of paintinci
from Mrs. Stewart's galled were last nigrht wen in
tlie parlors of the hotel, where they wU!
remain permanently. In tbe parlor were
Frieddemann's " Triumphal Entry of Columbus
into Salamanca, " painted in 1842 ; F. tL
Lacbenwitz's " Deer Pursued by Wolves," and
Schnz's " Picnic,'' all from tbe Dnsseldorf Chillery.
Near them were tbe original " May and December,**
James M. Hart's * Cattle at the Forest Stream," and
an aoto^rr^ph reduced copy of Yvon's "Genius oi
America," the lar^ original being in tho bali-rcsm ot
the Grand Union at ^Saratoga. Hr. Stewan
paia Yvon 13,000 francs for this copy.
A gainst the wall of Mrs. Stewart's room
hunir "The Milkmaid," by Bouchard, tbe pupil of
BoQgonreau : a "Venetian Scene on the Grand
Canal." by Ejusquizn. and "The Lady in Black," by
Abemma, pupil of Madraza.
It is estimated that nearly 20.000 persons
visi ted the new b otel 1 ast night, and ol-
though there was at times an uncomfort-
able crush, the inspection was undoubtedly en-
joyed, and the occasional personal discomfort
was good-naturedly overlooked. The best people
of the City were there in su^h numbers that it would
be impossible to attempt to give a list of the prom-
inent ones where so many were well known. Mrs.
Stewart was abundantlv congratulated upon the con-
summation of the plans of her husband, and
Jn<]ge Hilton was overwhelmed with compliments,
as it was well known that many of tbe details were
directed by his taste and carried ont under his per-
sonal supervision. If tbe opening of tbe hotel can
be taken as an augury of the destiny of tbe Women's
Hotel, it has before it a brilliant aud almndantly
successful future.

ORIGINAL PLANS FOLLOWED.
The Women's Hotel was beg:im ninA Toaxm
ago. Ground was broken on Jan; 1, 1869, and tba
work has never been entirely suspended since. Sir.
William G. Peterson, the engineer and Snperintend*
ent of construction, has been on duty eontiimonsly,
and has probably served a longer time on one eon*
tract than any other man in the City. The archi-
tectural supervision of the building was In the bandi
of John Kellnm until he died, in 1872. He waa auo-
ceeded by F. Schmidt, who superintended the work
until 18 montl^ago, at which time the preaent azchi-
tect, Mr. Edward D. Harris, of Beaton, took ehazss.
Mr. Harris has been employed by the Stewart estate
for six years. He built the Grand Union Hotel aX
Saratoga. As announced in The TniEs of Nov. IS
last, it was the intention to open the Women's Hotri
on Kew-Tear's Day, but Mr. Harris was taken sick;
and the opening was consequently delayed. Ur.
Harris has been ably seconded In his work by Mr.
Nicholas Whyte. Every pieoe of work in the hotel
has been given ont only after the closest figuring,
and great care lias been exercised in the selection of
contractors. From the cellar floor to the tank rooCi
the materials have been chosen from the best, and
only the most skillful artisans Have bean employed.
The hotel is as original hi Its details as in its puznoee.
The fumitnre, carpets, and fixtures are exdnstve is
pattern, and have been manufaetured espedaUy for
the stractare they adorn. Mr. Stewart was so par-
ticular that be himself selected tha French nlatfr
glass for tiw windows.
The gronnd corend by the hotel eoeoplaa 16 lots.
formerly occupied by the locomotive shops of ths
Hudson River Railroadi at the base of Mtnray wni.
Tbe old Sun-fish Pond of Manhattan Island bordered

The eoart Is erea with the fonndfttloa snd af-'
fords light and Tentilatlon to the lower ttorlee. It
Is laid ont in mtn^ walks, bordered with grass snd
adonied with rare and beaatif ul flowers, well keo^ and
bronze lamps of' Freneh manafeetnte. In the cen-
tre of the coart is a foontohi, with a basin 18 feet in
flUmeter, wbieh Is fed directly from a tank on the
roof, thos glrinz a pleasure snfEleient to throw the
water to a ^reat height. The court also gives light
and ventilation to all the central rooms, aad makes a
beaatifol promeoade for the guests. The walls aboat
the court are made to lend adornment to it, the
bright red bricks, white granite window sills and
cappin^s. noHshed glass, b^antiful cartains. and the
relief lines of the root, forming a pleasing and har-
moninns sanronnding. The •tractor* is abaolntely
fire-proot It Is composed almo t entirely of iron,
brick, and stone. The only wood need is that of the
window and door frames, and the flooring in foar
atoria-*. Where wooden tiooring is used It is laid on
Iron johta and over cement. Every joUt is of iron,
made by Peter Cooper. Every ceiling is of biiek ,
arched, and sarmoant«d by cement. The street walU
are 3G inches thick from the second story to the roof.
The court walU are 28 inches thick from the second
story to the r.-'of. Between the street and eoart
walls, ana mnning throngh the middle of the build-
Inz. U A continnons ball in the centre or each floor,
divldinic the street rooms from those in the coart.
The wull« o» each side of this hall are 28 inches
thick from the second floor to the roof. Between
each pair of rooms is a solid brick wall running from
the foandation, which is 28 Inches thick from the
second Hoor to the roof. It will be seen, therefore,
that «vcry pair of sleeolng-rooms is surrounded by
foar brick wulls. The floors and ceilinKS of the
rooms are 14 inches thick, of brick and cement arch,
dmrs laid between iron joists. Ifls inconceivable that
;a fire can ranke headway in such a stmetare. The
znanagement, as an experiment, some time ago
Dlaretl cnmhasiibles on the floor of one of the rooms,
and ignited them. The windows and doors were
closed, shutting off the draft, and the fire died out
In a short time witliont materially damai^ng the
Boor. Each mom In every pair Is divided from the
DCher by a partition mnUe of Iron raftexm, iron latiis,
ftnd cement.
The stylo of architecture la the pure Renaissance,
tf thecomUnation of the Greek and Roman princi-
ples by mmlem Joinings can be called pare. The
ilyle is well suited to such a structure, and gives
room for an immense play of architectural invention^
The ontsiite walls are simply grand. The fronts on
Ponrth-avenue and Thlrty.second and Thlrtr-tbird
itr(-ets,are of massive iron. The lower eolnmns,
feachinetwo stories, are of a deep Scotch granite
solor. backed by dark brown, and the other stories
are of French gray.
THE GROUND FLOOR ASVt BASEMENT.
The edifice i^ approached on Fonrth-aTenne
between two gigantic curb lamps, on eolnmns and
pedestals, by a grand entranee. This consists of an
Immense portico of Corinthian pillars and Roman
arches, forming the outside of an immense vesti-
bule. The vestibule is Immense, and Is lighted
by a pendent lamp of unique design. This lamp
!s octagonal in form, and composed of pare
n>an polished brass and plate glass. It has
!oar jets, and eost jxat $1,000. A few steps
Uike one to the vestibule hall. Here, on the front
side, are two ofBces for the transaction of bnsiness,
both elegantly famished. On the rear side, and
fronting the entrance, la the beginning of the grand
ataircase, on each side of which are the hotel offlcee,
vrith desks and annnneiators. Glolng down one
-fliflht of stairs the basement is reached. This Is a
vast labyrinth of rooms, with arched walls, enelnes,
pumps, and pipes. The basement floor is of stone,
and is on a level with the- court-yard. The
first room below the offices Is the tmuk-room. This.
- Is peculiarly constructed and very easy of approach.
It la fitted up eaoeuially for the storage of trunks
snd l.<tr%e parcels, its sbvlves being capable of hold-
bg 1,200 trunks. Guests, having ample closet room
m their chambers, will be required to leave their
farnnks here, each person having an apartment for
the parpn^e similar in some respects to that of a safe
leiwsitorj-. The next room Is a pumi>-room. Here a
pump draws water from a well and sends It to a cis-
fem In an adjoining room. Thence it is lifted by a
larger pump to a IS.OOO-gallon tank on the roof,
prom this tank it la led by a larx« nipe to the foun-
fcln, having a direct fall of 140 feet. After the
trarer leaves the fountain it descends into another
iistem at a lower level, and is agidn lifted Into the
iank. This tank has a second downward pipe. The
%-ater flows down throni^ this to a boiler in the
Ibasement, In which the pine coQs a sufficient num-
ber of times to allow the water to heat. The pipe
la thfiu continued throughout' the building being
tapped on its way at such intervals as to supply
tvery room with all the hot water needed. As this
rarm-water pipe la ■(& iounenM inverted syphon,
ihe water Is accessible from its aseendlmt ana on
ivery floor, being lifted by hydx»nHe instead of mere
itnioipherie pressure. In the nexs room is another
large pump, which Is attaohed to the Oroton pipes,

TABLED— A PBI2B ESSAY OK " DISCI-
PLINE" SiraOESTED.
The meeting of the Princeton College Alumni
at Delmonioo's last evening was rendered unexpfbt.
edly lively by the introduction ot a resolution relative
to the recent rows at tha College ot Kew-J«rsey.
The msetlBC opened at about 8i45 o'clock,
with Mr. Parke Godwin in the chair. After a
eulogy ot the advanteges of the new experiment
ot a .pott-fradaata coarse, Ur. William Allen
Bntlar. Jr, arose to offer a retolution.
Tha rectnt innbordlnttton of tome ot the ttndenti
had done the college, be ssld, considerable injury,
and he thought the subject merited attention at the
hands of the graduates. For the purpose .of testing
the sense of the.meetlng he offered the tollowbig i
Etnletd. That It It sdvlsable that a bond ha re-
qnired to be given by every student on Entering
Princeton College, signed ht hit parent or guardian,
and with two good and sufficient sureties, one ot
whom shaU be a reeident of the State of New-Jersey ;
the object ot the bond being to insure, first, the pay
mentothiaednegetees and debts eontractsd In his
capacity as student t and second, to insure his keep.
Ing the peace according to the niles and tvstUatloEt
of the eoUege, the pecnniary penalty of $500 attach-
ing to a dlsregsrd of these provisions.
Tbe resolution having been read, a graduate asked
what had l)ecome of Mr. Jerome's prise for tha most
gentlemanly student, and suggested that it mlfdit be
rvsntreeted at the present time. There were many
vrrytaeea among the aodttors, aad every one teemed
to be afraid ot Om resohttion, until flnally the Pres-
ident having suggested that a discussion might be
advisable, the Secretary teeondedit "for the pw
poae of apeniac tlie diseuislon." Mr. T. P. Jaektoa
then 'roee and spoke at some length, saying that
there Were certain featnree ot the matter that
deterved teliottt eontldetatlon. Tbe bond for the
payment ot feet and debta wss a good idea,
aad had been adopted in other colleges.
The $500 forfeit was not so good, however, as those
students who were guUty ot these acts would nthet
like to pay It, pnvidad they eoold get oa a ," spree"
otsni&eisnt msgnitads to eompensate tor the ex-
pense. The trouble wss that some of the students
did not teem to understand the dividing line between
what waa " fnn" and what was " not.''^ He thooght
they needed to be taught the distinction. For thli
parpote ha sumetted that the Alumni should offer a
ptiat ot $100 for an essay in which college discipline
and the anenitlaa ot college lite thoald be treated in
a maaly. attaichtforward style, sueh as Thomas
Hughe* mlgjit employ. ThtsshoUdbe printed aad
eitenlatad aaumg tha students, sad piapared in saeh
an attractive way that they wsald be forced to read
It. He thought It wvnld be a good idea to iaanleata
in the students the desire ta lead a aentlettkaly life
during Oielr college career, aa<t avoid such totalled
" fnn at bordeieS spoa dliordedy and riotons eon-

the Army woald eoms to ba eomposed ot colored

Army vonld become wMto. He believed the effect

Mr. AiiUsoK. of Iowa, thou^t the amendment

THE PACmC BAILBOAD SINKtNO TWD,
The Senate then resnmed the consideratioa ot the
Padfle Railroad Funding blU, which aamo ap aa an.
finished hnsinsss.
Mr. MoBKiLii, ot Vermont, addressed the Senate
In advocacy ot the Mil tlomthe Jadidary OOnmiittee.
Be insisted that the right to amend was valid, and
that the distribution of the means ot the roads and
the semi-annnal increase of their indebtedness to the
Oovernmentwaaaot a tnlflUmeat of the contract
It was the Intent ot the law that the large income
ot tbe roads shonld be applied in part to payment ot
honest debt. The bill proposed no eliange In the
contract, but rather to secure the talthtnlpertorm-
ance at the eontract at the expiration of 20 years.
The act provides that " at least " 5 per cent, ot the
act earnings should he applied to the repayment ot
the Oovenmient. This did not forbid a larger
amount helag reqairtd, bnt only ^ald it mutt not M
less tl»n 5 per cent. Qraat beneflte had been de-
rived from the eonstmetlon. ot the roads, but these
l>eneflu prophesied had been tha inducements that
led to ■ tlie munificent grants. He believed
it would be better in the long run for
the stockholders t.o labelve sxasller divi-
dends and pay the obligations ot the roads to the
Government than to receive the preeent large divi-
dends. If the friends of the railroads consulted
their true iDtereets, they woald not seek the passage
of the hill reported mm the Committee on Rail-
roads.
Mr. TBTraitaK, of Ohio, gave notice that he would
offer an amendment to the pending bill making the
first mortgage bonds one ot the dat* ot aeeoritles in
which the sinking fund, proposed to be created, aisy
be invested.
Mr. BiiaiiTx. ot Maine, said the oaaagart ot the
roads say that, it permltied to create their osm slak-
ing tend, they eoold make It pay a higher rate ot
interest. It migiit be that these men could do so
with safety, but they might not be there 20
years hence, and under other management
the bonds might take wingt tnd fly away
at the Indian bondt did ; therefore, it wat a wite pro-
vision that the Government should he custodisn of
this fund. Be thooght this fund might be turned
into tbe Treasury just as the Naval Pension fund
and Oebeva Award fond are held. Mr. Blaine said
tor the 15 yean ha had been In eoncreat the PadSe
roads had been betoxa Congress In some form or
other. He had an ambition to snrvive tills legisla.
tion, bnt under the propoeed biU there waa no finality
of settlement. Would it not oe better to say to the
roads exsctly wbst waa required ot tlie ro*ds, and
then let them rest i So long as these subjeete could
be brought before Congress, Congrtta woald be made
the tan to the kite ot WaU-ttreet
Mr. THVBiiAir tald experience wat the answer to
the Senator from Maine. Daring the two years this
subject liaa lieen before the SeaatCvhe hid never
teen a lobbyist hostUe to the roads. He had seen
the lobbyltte otthe roads in committee rooms, in the
eorridors, in the galleria% and on tha floor, and at
the houses ot Senators. It they were to be tied np
tor the next 20 years lie wanted a quite different bilr
from tliis. He would much prefer to let the law
stand as it is ttian to tie np the hands ot the Govern-
ment for the next 20 years.
Mr. BAaaxKT, of Oaliforala, said if an excessive
burden be pot on the roads, there must be an in-
crease in raws of charges by the roads, or the roads
must be allowed to go.to ruin. There cunid be sn
adjustment made whidi would be to the interests of
the Ooverament aad ot the roads. He believed the
Judidary Committees' btU wonid lead to litintion,
and he fniiher believed the conrte would hold that
there was an Irapaitmaat ot the obUgatioas ot a con-
tract in the bill.
The foUowing bills were reported from committees

the commission having In charge the 'Wsshlngten
Monnaunt to apply $86,000 to gt?lag greater st*
hUity to the foundation.
Mr. UONOXB, ot Miehtgan. opposed the btU. It
was very nsearttlB whether die tooadatlon eoold be
made strong enongh to beer the proposed super>
Structar*. The monument, it was datmed, was id-
ready a leaning tower. He was In favor ot taking it

Congress, having ceded the land on whidi it stood to
the Wathington Moanment Attodatton, had ad con-
trol over that gnmnd, and EOnld do nothing without
the content ofthe atwMlatten.
Mr. Cox, ot New-Tork. opposed the bill. The

tiabtly as it wss to-day. The material woald make
alplcn^monnmantiatome tastatol dsilga which

When the roU was called it wat defeated by a vote ot
28 to 32. The vote la the House had scamelyput

Ing the new metric system ot velghte snd meaaures,
were yesterday defeated. The bill increasing the
representation ot the CHty of Newark in the Connty
Board of Freeholders was passed. The Senate or.
dered the new Newark City Ward biU to a third
reUlag, and passed the general act gerrrman-
daiiag the Aisembly districts ot the Stete.
Two or three ' weeks sgo Bev. Mr. Robinson Intro,
dneed a liiU toriiidding the use of the public school
buildings tor publie dances. When it came from the
committee it also forbade their nse by euchre and
poker parties. The amendmente so essentially
ehaaged tbe character of the blU that Mr. Bobioion
dltowaed it. Bis effort to withdraw it from the files
of the House was met by Mr. KenneU's objection,
and Mr. McDonald, u order to hein the reverend
member ont ot his dilemma, moved to indefinitely
postpone the bill, which wss sgreed to.
The Senate resolution fixing Friday noon as the
time tor finsl sdjoumment was called op in the
House to-dsy. On motion of Mr. Matthews the res.
olntion waa amendedso as to make 10 o'doek Friday
alght the hour tor toe doee ot toe sesdon, and toen
passed. Tlie Senate will doubtless concur.
Senator Babe's bill, providing a general system for
the government ot the dtiee of the Stete, hss been
so amended in the House that it Is donbtfnl If Mr.
Babe himself can identify it As it passed the Senate
it provided for the election of dty ofllcers en a gen-
eral dty ticket and at large, and fOr minority repre-
sentation. As It came npin the Honse tois after-
noon, the minority representation clause had lieen
eliminated from i^ and te the clause providing for
the election at large was added a proviso that the
dty ofllcers, though elected in the dty at large,
shonld be nominated by districts. The bill is abo
hampered with a vrovlso which exempte Newark
from its operation. When toe bill was called up for
final passage, Mr. TDden discovered that ita title did
not fit exactly, and the bill vrent back to thecommit-
tee for revision and amendment. Many of the
Democratic members oppose it becatise many Be-
pnhlican AVa* have been so gerrymandered as to
^vs toe Democracy a chance ot winning to toem,
and it is doubtful If toe liiU can go toroncli.
A spedal committee appototed some weeks sgo to
Investigate tha subject ot toe fees and oerquisitee of
State and county offldala, wlto a vtew of reducing
them, reported to-day toat no reductions are dtoer

to ascertain what the fees of the county officials are.
Tbe report was made a special order for Thursday

A GANO OF PORSB TBIBYSB AJtSESIEJ).
Conatoble Edward Benson has sneceeded in
capturing two ot a gang ot horse thieves who have
been operating extensively ot late in the central por.
tions ot New-Jersey. The existence of toe gang waa
bron^ttoree weeks ago very tordbly to the notice
ot the reddente ot Somerset County. From liiU.
stone, and witoin a radius of two miles of toe village.
several valnable horses have been stolen. Frederick
T. Tan Mess' $1,000 trotter was token from his
stahles. A team valued at $600 was stolen from
Isaac Hoagland. Jotm Lane, a gentleman named
Bandolpti, and others have also been victimized.
Withto the Isst six weeks eight horses have been
stolen from tliat village alone. The farmers organ-
ised a vigilance committee, and employed Benson to
work np the esse. Re lesmed tliat a horse-dealer
in the village had recently delivered to toe
keeper of a Newark taVem, who is dso inter-
ested to horse fieth. eight handtome ani-
malt to be sold or exchanged. His tnspldons
were directed to the horte-dealcr, and John D.
Vroom and George E. Bockaf rller, who had been his
intlmstes. Vroom is s reddcnt of Newark and son
of Peter D. Vroom, who at one time kept toe Half-
way Honse in that dty. Bockafeller had lived in
Reddington. a village in Himterdon County, just be-
yond toe Somerset line. Bockaf eUer was traced to
a town in Pennsylvania and arrested. He ssserted
his willingnets to accompany the officer to New-Jer-
sey, and admitted toe toeit of an equipage from Sam-
uel Oounett, of Readington, Hunterdon Connty, and
the property, consisting ot a buffalo robe, four blank-
ets, three teta of harness, and tome whips, wat
found in a bam on toe premites occupied by Vroom's
fsther In Newark, near the inn of which he was
once proprietor. Vrtfom was captured in the moun-
tains in Pennsylvania, hut refused to accompany
the officer to New-Jersey. A requisition was pro-
cured, and he and Bockafeller are now locked up in
the Hunterdon County JaiL Other arreste are
llkdy to be made.

been built at tbe foot of Adams-street, ' Brooklyn,
but that no precautions have lieen taken to prevent
large quantities ot sand from being washed by rains
into toe river at the foot ot Jay-street to the same
dty. The fishermen eontlane to violate toe law by
sinking shad-polss in the North Biver, bat as no
complaints have beea made that they obstruct navi-

Newhall, who waa convicted of receiving toe valua-
ble property of Mr. HcK W. Jones, stolen from toe
warehouse of Seabrooke Pardy, No. 12 Washington-
place, was bronght before Judge Gildersleeve for sen-
tence }n General Sessions yesterday. His Honor
denied the motion tor a new trial, and
Asdstant District Attorney BnsseU moved
for sentence. Mr. MItcheU made an earnest appeal
to the clemency ot the court, on the ground that
Newhall had previously borne an excellent character,
and had restored tbe stolen property in bis posses-
sion. Judge GUdersleeve said that restitution had
not been made by tbe prisoner until the eleventh
hour. He felt confident tbnt Kewhall was equnllv
guilty with his sceomplice, Brandon, to the Isrceny,
but would give him the benefit of tbe good character
which had been proved. His Honor then senrenced
the prisoner to tour years and six months in the City
Prison.
IBS ISDBOEST BXPOSXTRB CASS.
The examination in the ease of Edward Jones
was eoatinned at the Jefferson Market Police Court
yesterday. Jonea was arraigned for indecently ex-
posing his person to a Broadway stsge on Friday
last. He was committed by Justice Duffy and dis-
ehared en a writ ot habeas corpus issued by Judge
Dsniels. Justice Dcffy. being surprised at toe dis-
charge, began an investigation for tbe purpose of
ascertaining whetber it was procured by fraud on
the part of the prisoner's counsel. Addison C. Jerome
and Joseph Stiner. Hr. Jerome willingly testified
and was honorably seqnitted by Justice Duffy. Mr.
Sttoer refused to testify or to allow Jones' bonds-
man, 'Willism Hamilton, to testify. This policy
he pnrsn'ed, he said, to prevent tbe court from jeara-
ing Ills client's real name, believing that that was
the purpose ot the investigstlon. Jones Is wealthy
and oelongs to a good family, and to avoid further
scandal has gone to Europe. Justice Duffy wss very
indignant and stimmsrily dossd toe investigstlon.

ington Market was done by persons who resided la
Jersey CUt- The matter was laid over. ■
Mayor I^Iy sent In a communicatioD vetoing the
Dew ordinance on carta and caVtmen, on the iprotind
that "it proposes to chance long-established ordi-
nADcea in a manner amblcrubns in terms, and of
donbtfol leeal validity." The Mayor also says that
he "apprehends that if the proposed ordinance
should be adopted, it would restiH in greater erjis
th«i) those designed to be remedied." His veto was
laid over.
Alderman Keilly presented a resolution anthoriz-
lEg and directinjr the Controller not to pay the salary

TuBSDAT, April 2— p. M.
The dealings on the Stoek Exchange con-
tinae to exhibit » buoyant tone, and speculators
generally seem animated hj an assured confi-
dence in a higher range of values. The fact
that the prophets of evil, -who for a short period
recently ceased their dismal eroaldngs, are again
uttering predictions of impending disasters,
may, perhaps, be regarded as anything but a
discouraging feature of the speculative situa-
tion. The North-'westem shares yit^ conspicu-
ously strong in the early dealings and advaneed
sharply under purchases for the long and shwt
accounts, with a subsequent reaction due mainly
to realizations. Western Union is again at-
tracting the attention of operators, and it is4iot
unlikely that this stock may soon occupy its old
position as leader of the market. Beports in
regard to the earnings of the company for the
current Quarter are of a very f avorabjie eharae-
ter indeed. The general market in the final
dealings showed a recoyery from the reaction of
the afternoon.
The Directors of the Michigan Central Bail-
road, at their meeting here to-day, declared a
di-rldend of .Tico V cent. The report, which is
now being printed and ■wUl be promptly circu-
lated among the stockholders, is an exceedingly
favorable one. It states that the road is now
all laid with steel rails, some 3,000 tons of
which were laid this year and charged to the ex-
pense account. The company has no boating
debt. Equipments and rolling stock are in flrst-
dass order and equal to any demand* of busi-
ness. After paying the dividend, for which the
transfer bocks will close on Hav 15, a hand-
some surplus will remain on hand. Mr. Dexter
Richards, of Concord, N. H., has been elected
to the place in the directorship made vacant by
the death of Ur. J. V. Barron.

The Mtmicipal Salary bill, which was
phased with snch striking ntianiiaity in the
Aaaembly yesterday, has at least one very
obvioiu defect The declared purpose of the
original bill was to effect a reduction of not
less than 20 per cent, on the aggregate salary
list of the City. The substitute retains the
proTiaion compelling a saying of two mil-
liong a year on the New-York City expenses
for 1878, but instead of taking it out of
the salary list of ten millions of
dollars, it allows the reduction to be spread
over the entire tax levy of thirty millions.
This is rather an important distinction, and
may be made the means of practically de-
feating the chief end of the bill. For ex-
Mnple, the State tax payable .next year
Beed not, according to the Governor, ex-
ceed .234 mills; this year it appeared in
the City tax-list at 3 1-6 mills.
Here is a saving of over half a
million of dollars already secured for the
City, without any reduction of local ex-
penses at all. Then, there is a bill pending
in the L^islatnre giving the Controller a
Bomewhat wide discretion over the appli-
eatiou of the revenues of the Sinking
IHmd, and givine him the power to decide
what bonds he shall pay in any given year,
>nd which he shall extend. This year
over a million of dollars appears in the
tax levy for redemption of the City
debt. Should that bill rass, what is to pre-
vent Controller Kellt from acting on
Cokkolly's theory that the redemption of
tiia debt can be safely left to the operation
of the Sinking Fund, and need not be pro-
vvled for out of taxation at aU f That
ivould give him another million with-
bnt touching the salary list, and he
could readily find the rest by
a heroic paring down of the annual
three-quarters of a million asked for by
the unaccommodating Department of Pub-
lie Works for repaying and repairing down-
town streets. On the whole, the striking
unanimity of the Tammany members in
favor of this peculiar measure of ' ' re-
trenchmant " is not difScnlt to understand,
and unless the bill be amended to apply
solely to the City pay-roll, it is likely to
prove a swindle entirely worthy of its joint
Mthorahip.
MojrrooifEEY Blaib, flushed with victory,
Oaa KSMB to Washington to procure the re-
opeaing of the Presidential count in order
th«t the damasd of the State of Maryland
iImII b* (ratified. A speoial act of Con-
gress is necessary for this purpose. Mr.
1*1.4X11 has undertaken a big jab, and it is
not certain whether he counts upon the as-
sistance of his old friend "Jebbt" Black,
whose diverting publication, The History
of the MeGarrahan Claim, demolished the
last vestige of reputation left to the foxy
ez-Postmaster-Oeneral.
Door-keeper Polk's sad case was before
the House yesterday, and it may justly be
inferred that those Democrats who en-
deavored to shield that official are chiefly
involved in his troubles. The Committee
on (Svil Service Beform bring a heavy in-
dictment against Polk, and recommend his
dismissal. It is notorious that the Door-
keeper was overpowered by Congress-
nien who demanded places for their
friends and followers. To dismiss him
now for irregularities which they compelled
him to be responsibly for would be cowardly,
and, with a faint suspicion of reviving
manliness, Polk's destroyers are trying to
ta,ro him. It is likely, however, that he
will finaBy ^ saorificed. With a helpless-
aess which is almost grotesque, the De'mo-
umts confess that they cannot manage the
patronage of the Door-keeper, and it is
propoa«d to abolish the office.
One of the Cuban insurgent chieftains,
Gen. BOLOIT, who lately capitulated with a
force of 2,000 men, hasbeen "interviewed."
The General says that he surrendered be-
cause he was ordered to do 80 by the Central
Couacil of the insurgents, and that he knows
nothingofthemotives which prompted these
otden. He gives, however; two significant
reasons by way of exphmation. One is,
th»t Mabtuisz-Campos kept the rebels con-
itHiUT moving by the aetivity of his own
(CMOT, and another is, that the proclama^
i antaiMiipation deprived the insure

alive a hopeless warfare, it is evident that
the rebellion is over, and that the Spanish
authorities had at last found the most ef-
fective means for ending it.
The latest crop of agrarian murders in Ire-
land was in 1869 andT'the early part of
1870. The passage of the Land act in the
latter year was supposed to have erected
such a bulwark against arbitrary evictions as
to have removed all excuse for the mode' of
redress by the shot-gun which had become
so frequent a resort of the aggrieved tenant
cultivator. The shooting of the Earl of
Leitrim shows that the old spirit of lawless-
ness is not dead any more than old methods
of managing Irish estates. Whatever may
have been the hardships involved in the
contemplated eviction of eighty -nine ten-
ants on the Leitrim property, it is clear that
the law has done all that it is likely to do
for the Irish farmer, and that?a renewed dis-
position to take the law into his own hands
would simply mark the beginning of a fresh
cycle of that ruinons agrarian anarchy which
the best friends of the Irish people sup-
posed had been left forever behind.
The formal opening of the Women's
Hotel founded by the late A. T. Stewart
brought together a crowd of people un-
equaled in numbers or in character in the
history of the City. The estimates of the
number of vistors who attempted an in-
spection of the magnificent building
last night vary from 12,000 to 20,000,
and as 13,000 tickets admitting two
persons were issued, the total may be
nearer the latter than the former figure.
To those who vainly tried to get an idea of
the internal arrangements of the great
hotel, while closely packed with its dense
crowd of visitors, the carefully-prepared
and exhaustive description of the en-
tire structure, which we publish to-
day, will be found exceedingly interest-
ing. To that still larger class who
did not assist at the reception, the details
now presented by The Times will be much
more instructive than any idea that could
possibly have heen gained of the building
last night. It is to be hoped that the future
of this great social experiment will be as
brilliant as its opening has been auspicious.
THE BBESIDENI AND HIS SENA-
TOllIAL ACC USEES.
The accusations preferred by the Republi-
can Senators against the President are in
the main just. They would carry greater
weight, however, if the position of the
accusers were stronger than it is. The ar-
raignment proceeds on the assumption that
the interests of the Republican Party are in
jeopardy, and that the Senators who assail
the President are its duly-constituted guard-
ians. The alternative as they present it lies
between the President and themselves.
They would have us choose between their
leadership and that of the Administration.
The position of the party would indeed be
desperate if it had no chance of escape
from one or the other of these contingencies.
The prevailing feeling throughout the
country is one of indifference rather than of
active hostility toward the Administration.
The rank and file of the party do not care
enough about it to be eager for an open
quarrel with its head or with its subordi-
nate members. They have ceased to ex-
pect much from it, will be* neither
astonished nor disappointed at anything it
may do or may fail to do, and are quite
conscious of the damage which it has already
inflicted upon the spirit of their organiza-
tion and its immediate prospects. To this
extent the demoralization is manifest. On
the other hand, there is an obvious disincli-
nation to push matters to extremities. Few
tears would be - shed, probably, were the
President to abandon formally the party with
which he is supposed still to have a certain
vague relationship. But the disposition to
drive him out is confined to a compara-
tively limited class. He is watched sus-
piciously, and in this respect is always
Upon trial ; and though the chance
of • favorable verdict diminishes every day,
the popular sense of fair play is still suf-
ficient to secure for him a recognition of
any material improvement in the course of
the Administration. Though partisan bias
in his favor has disappeared, if he were de-
sirous and capable of profiting by the Jes-
sons of his first year's failures, he might yet
render both the party and the country some
good service. The trouble is, that the
party's indifference — the legitimate result
of its experience — has its counterpart in the
President's sublime self-satisfaction, one of
the characteristics of a nature unequal to
the responsibilities suddenly forced upon it.
But the position of the Senatorial, majori-
ty is less intelligible than that of the great
body of the party. The Senators put them-
selves forward as the exponents of the
party's feelings and purposes. Assembled
behind bolted doors, they give utterance to
personal grievances, and separate under the
delusion that they have done something to-
ward helping the Republican cause. Their
action attracts little attention simply be-
cause the standard they have set up is not
entitled to more admiration than that around
which Mr. Hayes gathers his select family
circle. In the presence of such an Admin-
istration the course of Republican states-
■manship has seemed to be straight and
clear. By contrast, it should have rebuked
the Administration and emphasized the
principles and measures which have im-
parted to the Republican cause its dignity
and vitality. When civil service reform be-
came a mockery in the hands of the Presi-
dent who was pledged to carry it out fear-
lessly, the Senators, to render their own po-
sition strong, should have applied the essen-
tials of the reform to the removals and
appointments that came before them. The
opportunities presented would have en-
abled them, had they been faithful to their
trust, to rebuke the President and compel'
him to regard the dispensation of patronage,
as something more than the bestowal of
favors upon personal adherents. Thus the
party might have been vindicated, its esti-
mate of duty maintained, and its solidarity
under an acknowledged leadership pro-
served. The conceits of "my policy" in
regard to the South might not have been
corrected quite so easily ; but so far as the
public service in that section is ooaoemed,
the majority in the Senate retained the,
power of cheeking some of the vagaries of
the President, and giving praotioal effect
to the desires of the f arty. The process of
alienation might have gone on in spite of
.statesmanship. The Administration might
have drifted nreoiaelr aa it haa. andthabte
in store for it might have bees the same.
But the integrity of the party would hare
been maintained, and the Senators would
have earned a right to its undivided support
irrespective of the pretensions of the
Administration.
If people hesitate now as between a Sena-
torial caucus and the President it is because
the Senators who grumble most are them-
selves open to censure. Principle has little
or nothing to do with their quarrel, which is
traceable to unworthy considerations and
has been marked by degrading tactics.
Divest their complaints of the sham which
encases them, and nine out of ten wiU be
found to originate in some squabble about
patronage. The fact is not a justification
of the President. His obstinate refusal to
take counsel with prominent men in Con-
gress, his want of frankness and sincerity
on many occasions, his disregard of all but
petty personal considerations — all help to
explain the rapid widening of the gulf that
separates him from acknowledged Repub-
lican leaders. Too many of the latter,
however, have descended to his level, and
must share the responsibility for the pres-
ent unfortunate state of affairs. They
were willing to bargain and are angry be-
cause the President did not accede to their
terms. They were as ready as he to shelve
civil service reform ; the rules they have
applied to removals and appointments haye
been as provoking as his dogged blunder-
ing ; and their general attitude has been as
degrading to themselves as hurtful to their
party. Urgent business is delayed to make
room for paltry matters. Important ques-
tions are suspended in order that they may
make a little local capital. The ' ' courtesy
of the Senate" is made a pretext for
jobbing and bargaining in committees, and
for sacrificing equity to trumpery ideas of
expediency. One Senator becomes a
jobber in fraudulent mail contracts ;
another induces the Railroad Commit-
tee to outrage right with the vain
hope of securing his re-election ; others
become the agents and allies of railroad
monopolies in their fight for plunder. The
demagogism of some is matched by the
cowardice of others, and questions are set-
tled with only a remote reference to their
merits. The spectacle is not an ennobling
one, nor is it calculated to win confidence
for Senatorial assailants of an Administra-
tion which is saved from contempt only by
their recreancy to principle, and their f or-
getfulness of the great interests intrusted
to their keeping.
THE CALCASIEU SUFFEREBS.
During the debates in the Senate con-
cerning the timber seizures, we were asked
to gaze upon pathetic pictures of the suffer-
ings of Montana pioneers. We were told,
in moving accents, the story of the men
who bore the flag into the wilderness, and
who, pursued by a despotic Prussian, were
deprived of their fuel, and forced to shiver
over their fireless hearths, whil^ their hap-
less offspring around them bewailed the
heartlessnoss of a cold, cold world. The
pioneer was depicted to us as a mild-man-
nered, peaceable, and law-abiding citizen,
who, when informed that an alien Secretary
of the Interior exacted one dollar for every
acre of timber out to keep his little ones
from the wintry blast, sat down despondent-
ly and said, "I yield to the majesty of
the law and freeze in tmoomplaining
sUence." This was a new view of the
Montana pioneer. But as it was presented
by Senators whose ascetic diet is terrapin
and champagne, it must needs be correct,
though novel.
Quite as lachrymose a version of the case
as this, though somewhat more indignant,
is one which appears m the New-Orleans
Democrat, a newspaper, we should say, de-
voted to the cause of the downtrodden and
the persecuted — of Caucasian origin. This
journal felicitates itself that Congress has
allowed only $5,000 for the payment of
the " spies and pimps " now in the em-
ployment of " the distinguished Prussian
who presides over the Interior Department,"
and who is now engaged in crushing out
one of the most thriving industries of
South-western Louisiana. But it is suggested
that the $15,000 appropriated " for other
purposes " may be used by the despot for the
harrying and vexation of honest people who
are engaged in cutting timber on the lands
belonging to the United States Govern-
ment. It is intimated that the vote of
the Senate reducing the appropriation for
the maintenance of the aforesaid " spies
and pimps" was a stinging rebuke which, in
effete Europe would compel the resignation
of the Cabinet Minister of any Kingdom.
But, it is urged, it is the fault of the Ameri-
can system of irresponsible Cabinets that
the cutting-down of an appropriation asked
for by the Government exercises no control
over the policy of the Administration. This
is a condition of things which is declared to
be " quite altogether too bad."
This much, at least, is by way of repro-
bation for the functionary who is varionsly
described as Hessian, Phissian, and refugee.
When the organ of the persecuted timber-
stealers turns its attention to the victims
of the despot'iS malice, its grief is quite as
great as that which weeps over the Montana
pioneer, bereft of kindling-wood and slowly
sinking under a complicated disorder of fire-
water and congelation. Says the Louisiana
censor, "the Calcasieu sufferers found
themselves unable to bond the property
sequestered." Now, "sequestered" is a
good word. The Calcasieu sufferers had
been engaged in the laudable enter-
prise of cutting timber ' on the pnb-
Uo lands. The logs had been rafted
down the Calcasieu River, where
numerous saw-mills were busily employed
in turning them into lumber for export.
The pimps and spies of the distinguished
Prussian before-mentioned seized the logs,,
and the despot ordered that they should be
sold at public auction. This was done, and
the principal bidders were the " sufferers,"
who sadly purchased about $16,000 worth
of logs for which thdy were despotically
obliged to pay cash. The " sufferers," in
spite of their sufferings, were thus enabled
to buy a large share of the property taken
from them, and the tyrannical Government,
acting through its pimps and spies, pur-
chased the remainder. And it is com-
plained, with much acerbity, that the Gov-
ernment did not pay itself cash for its sales
to itself.
It will be observed that this whole com-
plaint against the oppressive action of the
Interior Department is based i^>o» the the-
ory t&at certain private rights have been
«ithlesaly invaded. Iiitloed. the Ibeal an-
thority wfaieh ira hav9 . quoted says that
•< this Hessian'reformer and his spies have
taken forcible possession of private prop-
erty, tied np navigable streams, destroyed
the trade and industry of whole communi-
ties, and violated every right of person and
property." This is by way of comment on
the seizure in Calcasieu River of 92,000
logs which had been cut. from the Govern-
ment lands. The logs, having been gotten
safely away, were private property ; their
" seque.Rtration" in the stream was a virtual
blockade of that important artery, of trade ;
and theii^sale to the "snfferers.'f at prices
ranging from ten to fifteen cents each, was'
the crowning outrage. Were the priva-
tions of the shivering pioneers of Montana
anything to this t Where is the eloquent
Senator who will tell in tear-compelling
periods the woes of the sufferers of Calca-
sieu t
The central grievance of these down-
trodden eitizena of the Republic is that a
profitable industry has been invaded. This,
unhappily, is a too frequent complaint in
all over-governed communities. Several
industrious and hard-working mechanics in
Brooklyn, who were engaged in the manu-
facture of pewter halves of the doUar of our
ancestors, were lately dispersed by a force
of despotic poUoemen, and those who were
not dispersed were kidnapped by the myr-
midons of the law. The mountains of West
Virginia are swarming with a class of
working men known as " Moonshiners," who
are obliged to distill wheat whisky in dens
and caves of the earth, in order to avoid the
taxation which an oppressive Government
has levied on spirits. An ingenious person,
who had laboriously, and with muck pains-
taking, trained a number of youths to ex-
tract handkerchiefs from the pockets of
wayfarers on Broadway, was lately sen-
tenced to Blaokwell's Island, notwithstand-
ing his tearful expostulations. And there
was a certain silversmith, a maker of shrines
for the goddess Diana, who reviled the
preaching of Paitl " because his craft was
in danger." They were all promoters of
certain industries, and they were also suf-
ferers. It is a crying shame that the Cal-
casieu sufferers should not be permitted
to thrive on an industry built upon timber
stolen from the United States.
A COPYRIGHT SCHEME.
Mr. SuHNEB, in his attacks upon the Can-
adian Reciprocity Treaty, used to stigmatize
it as " unilateraL" Mr. Blaine has intro-
duced in the Senate a bill intended to pro-
tect American purchasers of foreign plays,
which is quite as one-sided as the so-called
Reciprocity Treaty ever was. Briefly, the
bill proposes that the law of copyright shall
cover and protect managers and others who
procure, through purchase, plays from a
foreign author for the purpose of playing
or publishing them in this country. So
far as it goes, this is a good bill. It
seems a hard case that an agent, actor, or
manager who buys of a foreign author
or agent a play for representation in the
United Stated, cannot be protected in the
purchase rights. He may invest a consider-
able sum of money in such an enterprise.
He has secured not only all the rights which
the author could part with, but he has also
procured all of the accessories which the
original producers of the play could seU.
But before he can bring out the work which
has cost him money and time he is con-
fronted by a rival production, which is at
least a colorable imitation of the work sold
to him. One man has bought his play of
the author; the other has procured his
in some indirect manner. Profession-
al honor and professional etiquette
may prevent an injurious rivalry in the si-
multaneous production of the two plays ; but
the United States counts have decided that
there is no "prc^erty" in the purchase
which the American manager has made
except in the manuscript. Endless and
vexations' lawsuits have grown out of at-
tempts to restrain managers from per-
forming foreign plays which have been
purchased in one instance and "pirated" in
another. The French owner of a French
dramatic copyright may sell the same to an
American buyer. But that intangible thing
which we call title is not, in such cases,
recognized by the laws of the United States.
This hardship, however, is not peculiar
to dramatio literature. It is not peculiar to
the United States. Mr. Tejinyson, for ex-
ample, may exjtress his desire that an emi-
nent Boston publishing house should have
the exclusive right to reprint his poems in
this country. It may be true that the Bos-
ton publishers have paid Mr. TEmnrsoN a
goodly sum for early proofs of his forth-
coming works. It may even be true that
the aforesaid publishers 'are the only ones
in America who have ever paid Mr. Tenny-
son any share of the profits' derived from
the sale of his poems in this country.
The fact remains that any American
printer or publisher in the United
States may bring out Tennyson's poems,
old or new, in any form, and sell them in
direct competition with the firm in
Boston. Under existing laws, the publica-
tion of a book in Europe makes that book
the property of any publishers, or any score
of publishers, who choose to bring it over
here and reprint it. Why should a play
which is published (that is to say, enacted)
in Paris or London, be entitled to a legal pro-
tection denied to a novel, poem, or other
literary work? There is not a great de-
mand in European markets for American
books ; there is still less for American plays.
But the works of English book-makers
inundate American trtule. English and
American translations from the French are
less common in the bookstores, but an oc-
casional exoeption to this rule is sometimes
very marked. Nevertheless, as we have
seen, the publisher who brings over one of
these foreign works for American publica-
tion runs his risk of being anticipated by
an equally enterprising rival. And it has
sometimes happened that the rivalry is so
sh^irp that there is a wordy war of adver-
tisements, prices are. reduced, the publish-
ers lose money, and the public buys a book
for a low price ; but, in any event, the
foreign author does not receive a penny for
the thousands of copies sold.
It may be ts&ii that the outlay in the case
of the preparation of the imported play is
so mneh greater than that of the publica-
tion of the imported book that the former
needs protection. The purchaser does need
proteetion, and he ought to have it. But
the principle in the two cases is identicaL
It is absurd: to say that a capital of $60,-

tal of $6,000. A copyright for American'
purchasers of plays in foreign markets is
all well enough; but why does not
Mr. Blaine, while he is about it, give
us a copyright for American purchasers
of books in foreign markets T This bill is
"unilateral" also, because, while we are
legislating to protect one class of foreign
authors in America, we leave all American
authors in foreign markets unprotected. To
be sure, our export of literary wares is
light compared with our import ; and we
cannot legislate copyright into France or
England. But American authors are quite
at the mercy of foreign piratical' pub-
lishers ; and they have suffered from them,
too. And it is certain that the happy 3ay
when we shall have a reciprocal and equita-
ble international copyright law is postponed
by any attempt to protect in this country
one species of literary property while others
are " left out in the cold."
ENGLAND'S CIBCULAB.
The projected establishment by England
of a military magazine at Tenedos has been
given up almost as soon as attempted, in
order, as a recent dispatch words it, " to
avoid exciting the jealousy of. the European
powers," which, indeed, the occupation of
an island actually commanding the southern
entrance of the Dardanelles could hardly
fail to do. But, notwithstanding this con-
cession to public opinion, signs are not
wanting to indicate that the removal of the
check exercised by Lord Derby's judicious
moderation has left the whole Cabinet of
one mind as to its present policy. The
style of the circular recentiy put forth
by it is, from first to last, a specimen
of the courteous defiance habitual to the
duelists of the old regime : " Monsieur, I
presume to hint to you that I have a good
sword at my side, which I shall have much
pleasure in passing through your body, if
quite agreeable to you." Nor is the matter
one whit more conciliatory than the man-
ner. The mere mention of the hated treaty
of 1856 would render any document un-
palatable to Russia ; but when this un-
savory allusion is followed up by a pointed
denunciation of the expansion of Bulgaria,
the annexation of Bessarabia and Batoum,
theisoUtion of Constantinople, the recon--
struotion of Thessaly and Epirus — in a
word, all the most cherished projects of the
Cabinet of St. Petersburg — it is not sur-
prising to find this manifesto producing
much the same effect upon Russia's nerves
as the sound of " Die Wacht am Rhein "
upon those of a French officer. ^
Russia, however, is the last court in
Europe to let any provocation, however
great, hurry her into measures which may
endanger her own interests ; and, startling
as the prediction may sound, her next step
will very possibly be an attempt to treat, or
to make a show of treating, with England
apart ^rom Austria, just as she has already
done with Austria apart from England. It
may safely be prophesied that Gen.
lONATlEFP will visit both London and
Berlin before many weeks are over,
and that Russia^ having felt the
political pulse of France, and learned
that she has nothing to hope from that
quarter, will endeavor to propitiate Rouma-
nia and to make sure of Turkey. That
Austria, despite her undisguised aversion to
the treaty of San Stefano, is bent on pre-
serving peace if possible, Russia well
knows, and if she can succeed in keepin;;
England and Austria apart, and throwing
upon the former, as she has already striven
to do, the odium ,of obstructing the con-
gress, the danger may yet be averted, and
the hazardous game which she is playing
crotmed with success.
A PEILANTRBOPIC ENTERPBISE.
The Tribune occupies a place by itself
among the other newspapers of this City.
It is emphatically a philanthropic journal.
It cares nothing about money or influence.
There are newspapers which aspire to lead
public opinion, and others which bring to
their proprietors vast annual revenues.
Merely worldly considerations like these are
riot known in the high empyrean of the tall
tower. That the Tribune is published at
a daily loss of money, and that it ex-
erts no political influence whatever,
are matters of no consequence to
its directors. To do good and give
pleasure to the young and old of both sexes
is the noble purpose for which the Tribute
exists. If the Tribune adds but a few inches
to the circumference of a Vassar student,
its editor feels that he has not lived in vain.
If, by4te means, one young man is induced
to buy^ copy of Webster's Unabridged Dic-
tionary, Mr. Jay Gould goes to bed happy,
and prays with more than usual fervor. If
one little girl or one solitary small-boy is
made to weep tears of sympathy when a
leading article concerning the sufferings of
wicked " Tom" or frivolous " Susie "is read
aloud, the stockholders of the Tribune clasp
their hands and thank heaven that they
have made the world purer and better.
The effect upon the stockholders and ed-
itors of the 3V»6«Me in thus laboring for the
good of humanity must be extremely bene-
ficial. They cannot, in the nature of things,
occupy themselves exclusively in doing
good without growing constantly better.
Sweetness" and light are developed by every
copy of the dictionary that is given away,
and the purest and holiest emotions are
awakened even in the bosoms of the
clerks in the publication office when
the Yassar students, on the approach
of " Commencement," order three hundred
copies of the Tribune, with the view of put-
ting them where they will do the most good.
There are probably no mett now living who
do so much good as do the stockholders of
the THbune, and consequently there are no
men who undergo such a constant develop-
ment of their moral natures. It is only nat-
ural that they should desire that otBers
should share the blessed privileges which
they enjoy. Why should Mr. Jay Gould
and half a dozen other men monopolize the
privilege of publishing a purely philan-
thropic sheet t Echo returns no answers.
To retain such a monopoly would hardly be
profitable, and it is because they fully com-
prehend this fact that the Tribunes stock-
holders have decided to share their privi-
leges with other philanthropic persons.
An advertisement appeared the other day
in a comer of an obscure paper, announcing
that the stockholders of the Tribune intend
to largely increase the capital stock of their
association. 'Why this announcement was
not made in the Tribune ittelf , or in aome
newrapaper having a larger circulation, is not
varv clear. SeareelT anvbodv would be ex-
pected to notiee an obscure advertisement
in that almost unknown sheet, the Begister,
and it might be supposed that Jay Goitld
and his associates would have been aware
of the fact. However, it is impossible to
say how littie is known of newspapers in the
Trihune office. The Begister ma,y, very like-
ly be regarded by Mr. Gould as one of the
leading American newspapers, and an ex-
cellent advertising medium. Or it maybe
that, as is the custom of truly good men, the
Tribunes stockholders were not anxious to
advertise their philanthropic purpose of in-
creasing the capital stock, and hence mod-
estly selected an obscure paper in which to
publish their announcement.
Of course, there can be but one motive
which will induce people to buy the new
Tribune shares. No one will dream of buy-
ing them with the wordly motive of making
money. If, with its present capital stock,
the Tribune is not only unable to pay any
dividends, but is in want of money to pay
its daily expenses, it certainly can pay no
dividends to the buyers of its new stock.
Those who supply the two hundred thousand
dollars which the advertisement mentions
as the sum with which the capital stock is
to be increased must be actuated by purely
philanthropic motives. He who easts his
bread upon the watered stock is
not silly enough to expect that it
will return to him after many days.
The new stockholders will be men
who love to do good. Thev must have un-
alloyed delight in aiding the distribution of
Webster's Dictionary, and in furnishing the
children with beautiful little stories' in the
thin disguise of leading articles. Among
them will probably be found fond parents
who have daughters at Vassar College, and
who, knowing how the dear girls love the
Tribune for its stiffness and elasticity, will
be glad to aid in disseminating it. If there
are as many philanthropists in the country
as the Tribune imagines, its two hundred
thousand dollars of stock will soon be
issued, and after paying its bills forpaper,
and redeeming some of its outstanding
notes, the Tribune Association will go on
joyfully in its good work.
It seems ill-tempered to suggest doubts as
to the future of the Tribune, but surely its
stockholders ought to ascertain how many
philanthropists there are who will furnish
money for publishing a charitable paper at
a constant loss. It will not be long before
the two hundred thousand dollars furnished
by the new stockholders will be exhausted.
What then is to be done T If the Vassar
students are to be fashionably dressed, and
if the country is to be supplied with dic-
tionaries, more money must be procured.
It is evident that in time a limit to the
liberality of philanthropists will be reached.
The Tribune should remember that although
its rival, the Witness, lived for some
time upon charitable people, it ' finally
died from lack of funds. The time will come
when no more money can be had, and when
the Tribune stock, although planted by
Horace GREBLYand watered by Jay Gould,
will be unsalable at any priee. Let us
hope that the dismal day is at least twelve
months distant, and that at all events the
present graduating class of Vassar will not
be driven to choose between the cost of
nice steel springs, and the dull level of life
without the Tribune.
SENATOR MITCHELL'S BABGAIN.
Tolhe Editor or tte A'mp- Yort rim^f
It would have been Senatorial courtesy
had it not been a bargain. Hid Senator M^itchell,
of Oregon, said to his 10 colleagues on the
Railroad Committee: " Ti.u will gratify me by
givinK me authority to rjport my Xorthem
Pacific Railroad bill." th; Senatorial courtesy
might have constrained their ass nt, and cood
men mieht havj sighed over doing a vrroiis
which the traditions and unwritten law of .their
body compelled them to do. There is, in the
folly of the Senatorial courtesy, a quality of
merit that saves It and its s:ares from ultimate
contempt. But Mitchell drove a bargain with
some of the members of his c .maiittee. These
I am tempted to name, and to jrive them the
fame that justly ataches to bargeiis that buy
Representatvjs of States to violate their rea-
sons and consc'eaces.
Senator 3Iit:h ill's time will expire on the 3d
of March, 1879. Last Summer he devised a
plan to re-ele;:t himself for a second term. It
was a contrivance of double-barreled canning.
It contained within itself an i-um^nse service to
Jay Gould. This wjald win if the other lost.
If his Senatorial re-election f aile .1, his retainer
as a servant ot the Union Picifis Railroad
would be secure. Ha had .the chance
of two successes. Ha was certain of
pocketing one. His plan was to take
burglarious "possession of the legislative
necessities and inter -st* of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company, and distort an 1 misshape
them to his own Intirests. The stockholders of
that corporation were applicants to Can;^ess
for an extension of the timi to complete their
road. Secretly and in the dark, without savins
a word to its officers, withou' conference with a
sineleone ot i.s bt>okholder.s he ' drifted and
introduced int j tha Uaite 1 S ates Senate a bill
to extend for eight yeirs tha Njrthern Pacific
Company's time to finish its road.
In the body of this bill Mitchell earns his re-
tainer from Jay Gonld and provides for his re-
election to the Senate as follows :
First — The Northern Pacific Company's chat-
ter eranted land to aid the construction of its
branch from the confluence of the Snake and
Columbia Rivers westerly aero s the Cascade
Mountains to Pujet Sound.. Tuis branch was
a most important part of th3 short, direct
transcontinental line of the Northern Pacific to
a deep-wnter harbor on the Pacific Coast.
Mitchell takes away this land grant and bestows
it on another railroad which he has invented — a
road without ca^tital, a road on pai>2r. a road
that is a false pretoase, a djcjy lor Oregon's
vote.
Second— He terminates the Northern Pacific
Road at Portland, an inland town of Oregon,
on the Willamette River, 100 miles from the
sea ; and thus kills it as a trsuscontineuui
road, and a competitor of Jay Gould's Union
Pacific
Tltird—'B.e takes the Northern Pacific Com-
pany's entire unsold land-grant out of Its own
management and hands it over to the Govern-
ment to sell for the company's account.
Fourth — He compels the Northern Pacific to
change its good location in Washington Terri-
tory to a poorer and more expensive one in
Oregon.
J7/0i— Mitchell hates implacably the ofBcers
of the Oregon Steam Navigation Company,
which operates with over 30 steam-boats the
Columbia River and its navigable tributaries.
A short railroad around the cascades of the
Columbia, and another around the Dalles, are a
part of their line. To destroy this great prop-
erty. Mitchell unacruptilously uses the Northern
Pacific enterprise. In his bill he requires the
co«npanv to commence building its road down
tbe Colnmbis immediately, and at the Cascades
and the Dalles, so as to enable xome rival steam-
boat Use to operate tbe river with a deadly
competition against the people he hates.
. SixtlL — ^MitidiaU'a nailer TaUroad. (tha Por^
land. Salt tdik* nd Soofh Pus.) If boIH;
would be a feeder to Jay Qonld'i tTmon Paelfle,
and wotdd give Gonld an outlet of bUovnto
the Paeifle Ocean, and make him indepeodeat
of California. To all of E&iitem and Itortheoi
Or^Kon this papm* railroad Is held out by
Mitrbetl as a d^^ry for votes to return him tt
the United States Senate. It is to entan.
cipate Oregon from the tynnny of California,
it is to give OiTgon direct oonneo-
tion with the East. Mitchell is tc
be the wivior of Oregon, and Or^^on's blessing
generally. His own road has hot a dollar In its
treasury ; there is not a man connected with It
who is worth 50 cents ; it has not a particle of
property, not a franchise, nor a prospect, nor a
hone. Mitchell, however, coolly proposM to
snpply It with capital by takinz 6,000,000
acres of land away from the Northern Paeifie,
and givingthem to this Portland. South Pass and
Salt Lake Company.
This bill, the incarnation of impudence, trick"
ery,.f»1a«hood, and robbery, was as thoroughly
offensive to honor and decency inside of
Mitch^irs committee-room as it ' was outside
among its Intended victims. No Senator inside
of that committee excent Mitchell would dare tc
go on the record of tbe Senate as voting foi
that bilL ■ For the bill makes a new land grant,
in opposition to the determined policy of all
-political parties; the bill robs, lies, and cheats
without even a veil ; the bill is a rascally con-
trivance and tnck to save au UQScrupuioos poli-
tician from ruin at the ht^nds of constituents
who have found him out; tbe bill is an
aid to Jay Gould to destroy nilroad eosi-
petition across the Costineot, and to pei>etaat<
the gigantic monopoly he and bis CAlifomiar
associates now enjoy. No United States Senator
with a character to lose will for one moment
think of voting for this 'scaniia'.ous measure.
But on Saturday the Railroad Committee, of
which Mitchell Is Chairman, consented tu let
him report his bill I The explanation which is
whispered through the Senate end of the
Capitol i:<, that the consent was a necessity ;
that Mitchell, who is a Republican, bad a fair
chance of being re-elected from Oregon if he
could show his constituents even the success of
a favorable report from his committee, and that
the importance of maintaining a Republican
majority in the Senate not only justified but
required the support of his bill to the tfXtent of
a favorable recommendation of it by the com-
mittee.
Circumstances confirm this explanation. Froa
what I have learned. I have no doubt that Re-
publican members of the Senate Railroad Com-
mittee promised Mitchell that if he would assure
them that a favorable report would re-elect him
they would give It to him. yet at the same time
they told him explicitly that was <ill they would
df) — that when his bill came up in the Senate
they would vote against it. Qualified as it thus
was, their consent was not honorable not
right The doing of what they did should
cost every man guilty of the atrangenienl
his own re-election. It was a conspicuous wrong
to honest legislation, to vested rights, to the
public nterests, to the nation's development.*
The temptation to pillory the parties to this
committee-room conspiracy to aid a falling pub-
lic man at the expense of* the commerre of tbe
whole conntrv and the vested rights of 10.000
stockholders is almost irresistible. It is doubled
by the feeling that the wrong will prove wholij
unprofitable to the political party in whose be
haft it was committed. Mitcoeil will not. be re
elected. A Democrat will come to the Senate
in his place. VASOotrvxB.

Al**KT, April 2.— A bill ta cut down fhe
nmdnK •zpoun of the Glty of New-York for
next year aad labwqneiit je«n, inw t»ned hj
the House thU morning. It proTldea that for
the year 1B79 end labieqnent yean the smoont
olwd by tax npoo the City eball be
12,000,000 lea than was itiaed In the
imt 1878. This bin, which ia Kiran
Mow. waa adopted aa a aabatitiite for the gen-
iral $2,000,000 aalary reduction bin which
ms reported by the Committee on CSties some
lime acD, and printed in The Times. That biU
ma in one aenae a' patchwork afFaii^-that is,
me half of It was geneial in itt ebaraeter, and
the other half was loed and particular. It
would seem that the Chairman of the Commit-
tee on Cities obtained one part of tlie biU
from one source, and another part from an-
other source, and pinning them to-
getiier, presented them as a complete
bin. When snbjected to legal tests, the com-
pound document was found to be open to grave
objections; in fact, it waa shown that It would
be worthless. In place of it, the substitnte
adopted this morning was drawn op, which at
least is harmonious and consistent throughout
It was not offered nor adopted by tlie Honae
until there had been a long and some-
times Tery amusing . debate between cer-
tain of the Tammany and the Auti-Tammany
members, who grew very warm upon the re-
KieetiTe claims of Commissioner Campbell and
Controller KeUy to' the conlldenee of the tax-
payingpnbUe of New-Tork. Then Ur. James
Daly offered an amendment to the original bUl,
exempting die salaries of firemen, policemen,
and school-teachers from the jurisdiction of the
Board of Apportionment, and upon this amend-
ment there was a warm controversy. Hr. Thain,
lb. Qrady. and Mr. Brooks oppoaiog it, andMr.
XMjfllT. Straek, Mr. Fitzgerald, and some others
Snppoittne it. Ur. Alvord, without actnally
talking directly upon the amendment, con-
trived to throw in occasionally some very
adroitlT-worded remarks tending to rally the
country members to the. support of the theory
of local self-government. In the end the
amendment was defeated, on a viv« voce vote ;
and this being out of the way, the sub-
stitnte bill was offered by Mr. Fish, and
adopted. The eommitteee then rose, and in the
Honae, Mr. Daly renewed his amendment, and
called for the yeas and nays upon it It was
beaten by 76 to 30, those who voted in the af-
Himative {Bepnblicans in Boman, Democrats in
ItaUct, and Labor Reform in small caps) being
Messrs. AUen. Beard, Berry, Browning, Case,
■ Uhase, J. Clark,Canver9e, Cnrran, Daly, FiU-
rold, ToHtT, Gilbert, Graham, Battiday,
L Hayes, J. Hayes, Henr]/. Jones, Lovttand,
Uapks. MeDonoufh. Ifiven, Purdif, Struct, J. T.
Taylor, Totmsley, TVilliams, andWinch.
Mr. Clancy obtained the exemption of Brook-
lyn from the oparatioos of the bUl on the
ground that the seventh section might inter-
fere seriously with their local lawa Mr. Gra-
ham endeavored to obtain the same exemption
for the City of Newbnrg; but it was explained
that it could not possibly interfere with that
city, and the motion was beaten. The sup-
porters of the bill feared that if the buid-
oees of general exemption was begun the
and would be that the bill would be amended all
to pieeea; hence they all voted against Mr. Gra-
ham's motion. Then, seeing that everything
was favorable for making immediate disposition
of the biU, Mr. Brooks rose to ask, but Mr. Pish
got in before him with a reque8t,for unanimoua
consent that the bill might oow have its third
reading. Strange to say, not a single objection
was made, notwithstanding all the warm fight-
ing that had taken place over the bill, and it
was there and then read the third time, and
passedby a voteof 95 to 10. Those who voted
in the negative were : Messra Brauming, J.
Clark, li^eratd, Foster, J. Hayea, Hnlme,
Jones, MeDoHough, Purdg, and Straek. The

KSl> BAI.ARIE8 OF C0LLE0TOR8.
Albast, April 2.— At the meeting of the
Canal Board to-day the charges against Superintend-
ent Kirkpatrlck, of the Oeneaee Valley Canal, were
referred to the Superintendent of Public Worka, Mr.
Kirkpatrlck aaldcg tor a dispotal of tham. Mr.
Dorsheimar, from the 'Committee on Oonunerca,
presefited a report In relation to the toU
sheet of 1878, recommending that the Canal
Board refuse to concur in the recommendation
of the Le^slature to place fiour and petroleum
on the free Uat The report also says the
present method of collecting tolls is burdensome, and
suggests that a uniform charge par boat per mile and
a uniform rate per ton per mile on products and
manufaeturea would be advlaabla. Before any
change Is made, however, the committee think the
board ahonld have tha benefit of one year's experi-
ence under the present management of the canala.

FIFTH-AVENUE THEATRE.
The very familiar but stin attractive and
impressive drama of " Uncle Tom's CaUn " now oe-
enples the stsge of the Fifth-Avenue Theatre.
It raiatrodnees sn actress who has bean as
long before the public aa the play itself,
and preaenta the waU-known pictures of
Soatbem life with an amount of vivacity
and local color which eerUsrperformaacea never pos-
sessed. The aetreu we refer to is Mts. G. 0. How-
ard, who has embodied Topiy several thoaaaad
times, and the particularly-happy Illustration of the
plantation acenea ia brought about by the labora of a
number of colored singers, whose quaint tunas,
curious vocal methods, and sonorous tones
Impart to their work sn Interest totally distinct
from that awakened by the conTentionallama of the
"Ethiopian artiata" who habttually figure In the
dramatixation of Mrs. Stowe's book. More thsn
this it Is not necessary tO say apropos of Monday's
representation, which was enjoyed by a large an-

called their State ConvsntlOB to meet on the 18th of
June next in this dty. Tks BapabUean State Com-
mittee has been called to nset in this dty on the
2Sth of this month. A Utter fi|^ is going on among
ths Democrats for the nomination of ChlatJustlae of
the Supreme Court Hon. W. N. B. Smith, who was
appelated by Gov. Vsnee, in Jantisry last, to iUl tb«
vaeaa^.eaased by the death of Ohief-JasticaPsanoB,
is dlstsstafol to the aHrawtag of the party be-
,caase he holds tbat the jnxladletlqn to try revenue
olBeets when Indicted in ttie State Courts Is by re-
movsl to the Federal Court and then by trial or
other proeeedlugs In tbat court He la also obaox-
loaa to a large number of Democrats on aeeoant of
the deelalon of two caaae by the Supreme Court at
the reeea. term, one lavolvlngthe power to imprison
a man guilty of assault and battery on his iilfe, in
the County Jatt for five yesn, aad the other a que*-
tion of divorce. These qnestioh^ hsve becm dis.'
ciusedand commented upon nntn It appears that' a
majority of the countlas are opposed to
thenomlnation of Judge Smith. The opposition hss
centred upon David Schenek, of lincoln County, who
la a Superior Court Judge. This gentleman holds
tbat the jurisdiction to try revenue oflleera for of •
f enaea committed by them in their capadty aa oficers
of the Cidted SUtes is In the SUte courts. The
feeling sgslnst revenue officers has been played ai)on
tmti] the people sia at white heat In opposition to
Judge Smith.
It Is nmioted npon the streets this morning that
a desperate fight Is going on between Mr. Biandoloh
Shotwell, who was convicted In 1871 and sentenced
to the Albany Fenltenttsry for XuUuxing ..^smes
M. Justice, of Rutherford County, and the friends
of Judge Schanck. Shotwell ia oppoasd to SchenCk
because, he aaya, Schonck betrayed the Knklux snd
denounced them in his testimony bsfore the Com-
mittee on Southern Outrages at Washington. , ttbot-
well wss high up In the order, and the diarge Is
made that he la now writing lottera and using every
means In hla power to organise the ex-Euklux In op-
position to Judge Schenek. On the other hand, the
trlenda of Judge Schenek chaige Shotwell with
downright lying and perjury. They aay that SbotweU
publlahed a atatement after he was pardoned. In
which he denied that he was present or had anything
to do with the raid-upon Justice. Upon this show-
ing be has been regarded as a msrtyr to political
persecution, and waa taken op by the Demoerata of
Maeklenbnra County aad elected to the laat Leelala'
tare. He la now the editor of the J°arm«r and
-l/acAome, an agrlcaltunl paper publlahed In thia
dty, which Is the orgsn of the Suie Department of
Apisalture. It Is reported that affldaviu have
been procured from parties who were in
the Jnatlea raid, to the effect that Shot-
weU waa present ; that they aaw him and Iniew
Elm, aad that he kicked open the doorof Jiutlce's
house. It la proposed to bnll-doie Shotwell Into
silence by threatening him with the publication of
these aflidavlts, and thus destroy his martyrdom and
drive htm from his present poaltlon unleaa he atopa
hla warfare on Schenek. In the meantime It la aald-
that Gov. Vance la of the opinion that a portion of
hla party are raving mad, judghig by the attacks of
the party press npon Judge Bi^th.
The eontest for United States Senator seems to
have narrowed down to Senaior Merrhnon and Gov.
Vance. The contest will no do doubt be very bitter.
Herrimon baa overcome a great deal of the opposi-
tion incurred by hla bolt five years ago. Appear-
ancea indicate tliat Merrlmoa'a frianda np to this
time have been more active than thoaeot 6ov.
Vance. Col. Fuller, law partner of Senator Meiri-
>mon, manages his canvass, and ia ably aeconded by
Mr. GeorgeW. Swepaou, of railroad notoriety, in
thia State. The other law partner la Mr. 8. A Aaha,
who la Chairman of ths Democratic State Commit-
tee. Gov. Vance haa made maziy enemiea In
hla party by not having olBeea enough
for every hungry aspirant. He thinks hewlU re-;
celve the csuetu nomination and that the BeoublIcan#
memberaof the Laglalature wlU support him In
preference to Senator Mertlmon. It Is proposed to
make the fight In the meetings to nominate candi-
dates for the I^aglslatttTe and to commit the randl-
datea to Gov. Vance or to Merrlmon aa a majority of
the people may dedde. I have been told thai Orange
County haa been "fixed" for Mr. Merrlmon, and
thst J. 8. Oarr and A. A Graham are to be nomi-
nated for the Lagialatore as hla frianda. Believing
that the Statels overwhelmbwly lost to the Hepabll.
cana. Democratic candJdatea are aannmeroua aa the
voters of that party. The preaest outlook foretella

MBS. ROBERT BONNER.
Mrs. Robert Bonner, wife of the proprietor of
the Kew.Tork Ltdgrr, died laat evening, of oonaump-.
tion, in the forty-ninth yaarof her ace. Commencing
two years sgo with sn Indlsposltlott snd Isngoor sp-
parantly trifling in their nature, Mrs. Bonner wss re-
duced to a very weak eoiidltlon In a few montha ;
then eonflned to the houae^ aava on aunny days,
when a drive In the Park near by was
permissible; flnaUy confined to her room—
wUch, with the singular Intaltion that sometimes
eonaes with mortal Jtaeaaa, ahe accepted from the
Otttaat aa final, although her medical atteadanta bad
been hopeful of a favorable reault until within the.
last few weeks, whan the vital energlss of the pa.
tient commenced rapidly to give way.
As Miss Jane MeConlls, the deceased, a native of
the County Donegal, in tha north of Ireland, came
to thia country with her perenta in 1839, being at
that date 10 years of sge. She was ednested In
this City, sad hers she first met Mr. Robert Bonner,
thencelebrsted aa the swiftest compositor In ths City.
The acquaintance ripened Into aa offer of marriage
l^omthe amsitloua young eompoaitor, who, even at
tbat date, had conceived the dream of founding the
first great weekly jonmsl dsvotedto American serial
fiction. Bobert Bonner and Miss McConlls, then 21
yesrs of see, were marrledqnIetlyMaySl, 1850, (five
years before the Ltdgtr was started,) according to
the Preabyterlaa rltmU, In the huge atone stmctnrs
that lormerly fronted on UnloU'Squaro. . The ground
Is now oeeapled by one of the largest jewelry stores
la this eonntry, ths gray stone bntldlng, with its con-
negatloB, having long alnee migrated far up town.
For years the yonna couple lived modeatly
In Brooklyn, not In boardlng-nouaea or mere lodg.
tnga, as Is the rule aow-a-days, bat in a well-ordered
little hones of their own. When, In 1855,
Mr. Bonner sasamed the proprietorship of
the Ltdgtr snd transformsd it Into a new
jonmsl, the yonng couple removed to New-
Vork In order to be nearer bla Iraalneaa, which

. .After sketching the four yean of confnalon tbat in-
tervened between the peace of 1783 and the prepara-
tion of tbe Conatltntion. Mr. Curtis detaUad.tbe pro-
eeadlngs ot the Convention of 1787. "The original
, patpoae of that convention was to arrange for tbe
. pxeteetlbn aad extension of the commerce of the
States. Tbe neceadty to unite the States became ap-
pnent during Ita proceedlnea. When thia waa learned,
it became alao apparent that tbe confederation by
Which the States had been held together before waa
no longer poaalble. The model for the Government
waathennat provided in the British Constitntlon.
That cOnU not be accepted m its entirety, however,
-forthertaaon that everything pointed tothenecea-
alty of making the new Government republican.
Waahlagton. the only man who ever could have at-
tained anprame power In thla country, recognized
this fset, which waa declared and emphaalzed by the
ststementa of the Declaration of Independence.
"TbepoItUesl instltatlons of this country," said
Mr. Curtis, "were founded and Intended for a par-
tl^nlsr.raee — namely, the white race. It Is not a dis*
parasement to out fathera -that this was so. When
the dedaiatlcn was msde that "all men are created
free and equal," there was no mental reservation by
itafiamers. There was then no necessity for one.
It waa im|K»aible for the fathers to take
'Into consideration any other race than tbe
white. It waa tmpoaalble then to frame a ayatem
which ahonld Indude beaides tbe -white race the
black, whose people 'Were recognized by local laws aa
propertj\ and the keeping of whom aa property waa
praeUeedin almost every country of the world. We
may deplore the pieaence of blacks In our country
when our Conatltution waa formed, bnt we
have no right to reprove our fathers for
Ignorlne them In. the preparation of oar system
of Qoaetnment" Mr. Curtia explained the debates
ths amae In thb Convention of 1787 concemiiis t he
•ystem of government to be prepsred, and showed
the difference between the radically Federal and rndl-
eaUy national typea of. Government advocated. The
purely Federal Government could only affect tbe
Statea forming It while the purely national Oovam-
ilient would affect the Indivlduala. Compromiae waa
aiffeeted, after many critical diOcoltlea that
sssm' only composed by wonderful psrllsment-
azy skill snd adroltneaa, and at last tbe
mattera were so arranged that tbe people were rep-
reaeated in the House of Representatives and tbe
States In tbe Senate. A numerical majority of the
States wss thus made a cheek upon the numerical
majority of the people. Complicated as is this check
it has often aaved the riKhts of the people. The
Government of onr Bepablie Is dual In ,its legls,
latlve bodies — one of which Is material, the 'other be-
Ingfederml. It is dual, also, because the citizen la
controlled in aome respects by the national part of
the Government and m others by tbe federal. A
great strain waa put upon the Government by the
, late dvU war. Abnormal energiea of tbe national
'arm' of the Government had to be nut forward
aealaat atill more abnormal developmenta of State
rl^ts, snd in the struggle State righu auffered.

rell and bis wife, Mr. Orlando Stewart, and the nu-
dertaker. The undertaker is himself a clei^yman,
bnt it was the family's desire that there should be no
religions services, and the casket waa carried to the
hearse and fiutened in without any acknowledgment
of a fntnre life.
Tbe only memhers of the family who accompanied
tbebody to Ute Grand Central Depot were Charles
R. Purdy and B. H. Shannon. They- and the under-
taker alone followed Mme. Restell's body to ifae grave.
When the depot was reached the caslcot was pat Into
a rough onter box that was ready in a baegatce car,
and tbe little cf'rt^ge cook the 1 1:03 train for Tarry-
town. When the body reached thfl latter place a
hearae was in waiting at the depot with a carn&ge,
and the cotBn w«8 transferred to it, and it was soon
oti its way to the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, about
two miles from the village. .As the little procession
passed throi^h Tarrytown on Its way to the grave
few of the many ipeetators knew whose body the
coflBn contained. ExtraordiDaryprecautiona had been
taken to conceal the time and place of the funeraL
A grave had been dug for Mme. Beatell in her
famUy lot, immediately beside the grave of her bus-
band, who wag baried about a year ago. The lot is
one of the best in the beantifnl cemetery. The ^and
in which the graves are dug is a handsome o'een
swud, sloping gentir toward the river bank. With-
out a prayer or a tear Mme. Bestell was lowered
into her rrave.
Mr. Farrell, a son-in-law of the dead woman, is
credited with saying yesterday that Mme. Restell at
one time contemplated e&eapin? to Canada, but that
ahe was diasnaoed by her friends. He 6avs that
there never was a patient in the bouae, and that any
attempt to prove tbe contrary woald have fHiled. It
is said that when she went to the Surrocate's oflQce
to deposit her will, a tihort time before her death,
she said to Mr. Farrell's wife, who accompanied her.
" Cairre, you are my only heir."
It is learned from protesslonol gentlemeh who are
acquainted in a business way with Madame Restell's
will, that her Executory are Charles R, Pnrdy, who
is a minor, and cannot qnal1fj\ and Caroline Shan-
non. On account of Mr. Pnrdy's disobility. Mrs.
Shannon will be left the sole Eiecntrii. The dauKh-
ter is not mentioned in the will nolesa for some in-
considerable lej^^y. By her hueboad's will, Mad-
ame Restell was left a life Interest In the real estate,
and the absolute ownership of the personal prop-
erty. Tbe two grandchildren will inherit the bulk
of the proi»erty, both real and personal.

IMPROBABLE STORIES SET AFLOAT TESTER-
DAY— A RUMOR THAT THE BODY POUND
IK THE BATH-TUB WAS KOT MME. RES-
TELL'S.
Some wild stories were drcnlated in the 01^
yesterday In regard to Mme. Resteli One was to
the effect, tbat the woman was not dead, hut la
Canada, or on her way to Europe. It was said that
the dead woman found in Mme. Restell's bath-tub
on Monday morning was one of her patients
who had died on her hands. The Madame
bad made and recorded her will, and done everything
to deceive the pabllc. It was said that neither Coro-
ner Woltman, Deputy Coroner Cnshman, who made
the autopsy, nor the jury who uit at the inquest
knew the Madame well onoueh to idectify her, and
that no real identification could have taken place. It
was urged that no one besides the above-named offi-
cials were allowed to see the deceased, and that her
corpse was carefully concealed and buried with the
greatest secrecy. Another story was that Mme.
Restell was murdered throush the Instiication of
wealthy people who had patronized her in her crimi-
nal business, in order to prevent disclosures which
they deemed inevitable at her trial. Notwithatand*
Ing the wild and visionary natnra of these mmors,
they have many believers.
'Hie Coroners and Police ridicule the stories and
prononnce them the inventions of a diseased mind.

A TOXKERS ALDERMAN REStGSS.
The last meeting of the old Board of Alder-
men of Yonkera, on Monday night, waa maraed by
the tuexpected resignation of Alderman Frederick S-
Sbonnard, of the Third Ward. The resignation was
tmanimonsly sccepted. Alderman Ehoimaid is a
Democrat, and resi£ned because he cotistrued the
defeat of Alderman 6. L. Morse, hia colleague, and
the late acting Mayor, as a rebuke of hia ofBdal
course. Theae two Aldermen bad practically directed
the Yonkers City Government lor some time.
Alderman Morse was elected first as a Republican,
but at the lost election he ran for re.electKm on a
Oemocratle nomination, and was over whelmlngly
defeated, his opponent's majority exceeding his own
vote. Alderman Morse's successor is Isaac P. Cole-
Ko power exists to fill the vacancy made by Aldei^
man Khonnard's withdrawal. This change leaves the
board with five Republicana and two Democrats.

girl " Eliza Gleaaon. He persisted in his assertion,
and the Sergeant aent Detective Bissert to inquire
into the matter. The latter found Ulsa Gleaaon a
very lively corpse, and she waa not at all pleased at
being disturbed at Kucb an .early hour in tbe morn-
ing. In the meantime Cohy attempted to leave the
statiun-hoose, and seemed to torget the object of his
mission . He was talcen before Justice Flammer, at tbe
Essex Market Police Court yesterday, and an inves-
tigation having shown that the young man 'Was a
somnambnllat he was discharged.

granted the rtcaaa aakad for by Mr. Lord,
and at 2 o'clock tha court reaaaambled. Mr. Ethan
AUes, of aaaodata eonnaal for the eonteatanta, read
an affldaTlt made hy Mr. Scon Iiord. principal conn-
■at for Mra. La Ban. The deponent statei that he
ncelTed a telMram from Bedbnmon March 20,
sUtinic that WllQun H. Clark had left Kansas on tha
prerlona day, and "wosid travel by easy stages."
In a letter to daponaat dated March 19, Bedbnm
had stated that certain paitiea were looUng for Clark.
A"MnanaI" wbleh had anpeared in a momine paper
on March 28 read aa follows : " If the tall nntle-
maniriioon tha erenina of 19th inst left Chicago
for New-York, aeaompanTed by a physician, will ad-
dress the adTcrtiasruqmediaiely, he may And ample
capital to pot hia Western project on a sonnd pay-
ing baaia.'^ ThadescriptionglTen in the "personal"
applied to Clark, and was not. in deponent's belief.
Inserted in the Interest of contestant. On March
21 Redbnm telegraphed denonent that Clark
woald leave Toledo "that morning"; on March
22 he telegraphed that he expected to overtake
, Clark at Buffalo, Deponent heard nothing further
from Kedbnm until March 26, when he received a
Telegram signed "Agent," saying, "Redbnm has
been under arrest since Friday; is free now^ a trap
doubtless; may get proof; return instantly." De-
ponent Immediately telegraphed to C. M. Hertlg and
H. L. Johnson, lawyers, at Chicago, to render any
atsistanre in their power to Radhnm. In reply they
stated that they could not trace the arrest, but that
they found that Redbum had sent the dispatch
signed "Agent." Deponent heard nothing
further from Redbnm until the evening of
March 31, when he received a telesram from
him at Buffalo, saying that, whet was
left of him waa safe, but that •■ C." had "left on Frl.
day, leaving him no line." Deponent had no doubt
Redbum waa serionaly ill. or was otherwise Injured.
Deponent further said that "enaction for a eon*
Bpiracy in having Cornelius J- 'Vanderbilt personated
tor the purpose of affecting the will of bis father. "
was commenced by the service of a summons and
complaint on tha proponent and on others on Sept.
10, 1877, the aetion being baaed mainly upon the
affidavits of Redbnm, George A- Mason, and William
tl. Clark. Sadbnm, in an affidavit, had stated
that on Oct. 21, 1874, he was at the head
■ of a private detective force at Jersey City,
when a gentlemBS called on him and asked if he
knew Comelins J. 'VanderbilL He replied, "No,"
and the peraon continued that Cornelius "waa de-
ceiving his &ther by a pretended reformation, and
that, aa a friend of the family, he desired to have him
followed and reported, and desired Redbum to fur-
nish a man for the purpose, with instructions to meet
him at the Fitth-ATanve Hotel the next day. Oeorge
A. Maaon was lelected for the duty, and a person
waa pointed out to him as being Cornelius
J. VanderbUt. Mason followed this person <4nd
kept a diary of his movements, ' which
be fnmished to the person who engaged
him. The report showed that Cornelius J. had " vis-
ited variotia dioreputable houses, and had very
vidona habita." Maaon aeoompanied the individual
who had engaged him to the Grand Central Depot.
where tb» report waa repeated to William H. \ an-
derbUt. Tlia latter said he " wss very sorry to hear
inch a report, because he supposed his brother had
reformed." Tha person who had engaeed Mason
said that " Commodore Vanderbilt onehi to know
rack facta," bnt William H. said "No; he will
do better by and by." The unknown per-
son then reminded William fi. that he
bad "agreed to communicate to hia brother
the fasts ha should procure." William H.
made no fmtlier objection, so the detective and his
patron vlaitad Commodore Vanderbilt, where Mason
repeated hia Imowledge of Comelins J.'s doings.
Commodore Vanderbilt, on hearing the statement,
grew very exceed, and said, " among other bitter
things, that be wished Cornelius bad never been
bom." Mason, in obedience to instructions, con-
tinued to follow the supposed Comelins J. for nearly
a month longer, making anottaer report during that
time, which waa likeivise carried to William H. and
then to the Commodore. Mason, in his alBdavit,
said that, after tha Commodore's death, he dis-
covered that the XQan he had " shadowed '*
w^ not Consellus J. VanderbUt. He reported
that fact to Ra^mm, and the latter, in an affidavit,
disclosed the stepa subseouently taken "to ascertain
the facts relating to the imposition practiced upon
the Commodore." Additional letters and "per-
sonals " were dtad In the affidavit of the deponent
relating to the same eaae. In conclusion, deponent
atated that there waa another witness on the qnas-
tioo, "whose stateanent he ia familiar with," and
whom he hoped to obtain aa a witness, bnt, "with
her husband, aha had left her former residence at
Saratojza."
3[r. Clinton said that thexa wai no insinuation in
the affidavit that anybody eonneeted with the pro-
ponent bad anything to do with the detention of the
witnesses desired by the contestants, and, in a long
argument, he opposed any Itirtber postponement.
He was answered at length, for tiie contestants, by
■Judge Black. The Surrogate said t^at there ought
to be a desire on both sides to obtain all the testi-
mony there was to be offered, partictilarly on the
part of the proponeoita, as there were grave insinua-
tions made which ought to be established or refuted,
snd he therefore granted an adjournment tutU Tuea-
lay next at 10 A. M.

TROUBLE IN TAIMAGW3 CSXmCB.

KB. XOROAN^S BE-EKOAOKMlXNT AS OB-
GAKIST— MB. TALVAOE <?BABGEI> WITH
FALSEHOOD.
The recent trouble In Mr. T&lmsge's Brooklyn
Tabernacle in regard to the eelection of an organist.
which resulted in the re-en givgement of Mr. George
W. Morgan, has been followed by the resignation of
the entire Board of Trosteee, zdne in nnmber, and
the nnblicatlos by them of a statement explaining
their action. The Trustees say that the annonnce*
ment made last Sunday by the Pastor, that tlie See-*
siona had decided to retain Mr. Morgan as organ*
1st. left them only two altematlTes— either to fo-
ment discord in the ehureh by appealing to a eongre*
gational meeting, or to resign. .They deemed the
latter course the wiser. The Tmatees ■ claim that
they have always been friendly to Mr* Talma(;e and
also to Mr. Morgan, notwithstanding his " shortoom-
ings." For the last 10 years they have had absolute
control of the musical department of the Tabernacle,
and their right in the premises has not been ques-
tioned nntil recently. In r^nrd to the allegation
that the board took advantage of the absenoe ot Mr.
Talmage to dispose of Mr. Morgan, they say that
the Music Committee had a consoltatioa with the
Pastor fully a month prior to his deiArthre, in
which they stated to him that, in view of. the finan-
cial condition of the chnrch, if Mr. Morgan was re-
tained. It should be at a reduced salary. They also
say that Hr. Talmage personally requested the board
to refuse to give Mr. Moig&n the use of the Taber-
nacle for a concert for his own benefit. When the
subject of re-engaging Mr. Morgan at a reduced sal-
ary was presented to that gentleman, he at first de-
clined the proposition, but afterward sought a recon-
sideration. The Trustees had aicertained, however,
that they could secure the servicei of several wellrf
known organists at a smaller salary than that offered
him, and they informed him that his services would
be no loneer required. When the Pastor returned
they sought an Interview with htm. thinking that he
would approve their action. They found tne "Board
of Elders in session, and Mr. Talmage suggested thst
they meet with them and talk over the question.
The result was the passage of a resolution dinmiMing
Mr. Morean. In view of thene facts, they were much
surprised, on Monday eTening. March 25. w^eu the
Music Committee Bubmitted to them propositions to
reverse all previoas action and reinstate Mr. Morgan,
They declined the pmpOBitlon, hat the Session de-
cided, without consultation with them, that Mr.
Morgan shotild be retained. The statement closes
with the assurance that the late Trustees bear no ill-
will toward Pastor or people, and will faithfully pay
the amounts subscribed by them for the liquidation
of the debt. The paper bears the signatures of War-
ren S. SUlcocks, Robert 8. Hobbs. John F. Talmaae.
H. S. Elmore, T. E. Pearsall. A. Pearson, H. L.
Foote, B. F. Cogswell, W. J. Gelston.
Aa an appendix to the statement, Mr. Thomas E.
Pearsall, one of the Trustees, publishes a letter ad-
dressed to Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage, in which he sin*
oerelyregtets that the course pursued by Mr. Talmage
has compelled him [Pearsall] to resign his position as
Trustee, after having been a member of the board over
eight years. After claiming that he has discharged
his duty faithfully, Mr. Pearsall calls the attention
of Mr. Talmage to the fact that, on the last Sunday
in June, 1876, ne demanded that Mr. Morgan should
be diseharsed, because he cam** to the church drunk ;
that Mr. Morgan was discharged and ceased to be or*
ganist, bnt was finally reinstated at Mr. Talmage's
request. Mr. Pearsall. after referring to other acts
of Mr. Talmage, in which he acted in a strange and
insincere manner, closes as follows: "Having lost
all faith in your veracity, there If but one course left
for me. and that. is to iiever my relations with you
and the church. This I do in sorrow, not in snger;
I can no longer sit under your preaching, without
doing violence to my feelings. You have utterly de-
stroyed ray faith in you, a faith I had hoped wnuld
be IsBtine. and have fed to more elo8« and intimate
relations between us. Yon have destroyed my faith
in you. not my opinion of the chnrcbt which has my
best wishes for its prosperity."
STEAM ON TBE BELT RAILROAD.
THE PRIVILEGE GRANTED BT THE BOARD
OP ALDERMEN — ^ STEP TOTTASD TERMI-
NAL PACILITIES.
The Aldermatiic Committee on Law, which
haa held several sessions in relation to terminal fa-
cilltiea, presented a report to the board, yesterday,
in favor of permitting steam freight cars to be run
on the Belt Railroad. The report says that the Issne
presented is, ** Shall the Metropolis of the Western
Continent lag In the race for commercial supremacy,
and wUl ita paopl* aaifar bar prestige to depart to a
rival without a straggle f* and that the objectlpns
made to the measnre by persons doing bnsiaess In
Wasbington Market, and by cartmen and others
— whoaa views Jiave been published in Thx Txmks —
are untenable. It also declares that individual,
elaaa. and local Interests mnat yield to the require-
ments of the whole community, and that the ox^
position trom the cartmen is short-sighted and
will be demonstrated to be so after the privilege is
irranted. Reference is next made to the fact that
the charter, of the Belt line permits freight ears
to be mo on their tracks, and that the present pro*
jeet simply serves to effect an object evidently con-
templated by the Legislature, and for which the river
front of this Citv la well adapted. The report also
refers to the correspondence iwtween Mr. William H.
Vanderbilt and the committee on the question, after
which It says that the privilege sought to be con-
ferred does not grant an irrevocable license, but that
the Common Council reserves to itself the power to
eorrect any abuses which might grow out of an Im-
proper or inequitable exercise of it. The report
closed bv recommending the passage of the follow-
ing resolutions :
JUtolved, That permission be and the same is here-
by granted to the several railroad companies whose
lines terminate at the port of New- York, to draw or
cause to be drawn their freight cars by the use of

eonatruetion of said branches, switches, and turn-
outs be first had and obtained. Every railroad com-

wood, Rev. Dr. Taylor, Rev. Dr. Hepworth,

Budington was absent on account of sickness. Rev.
Dr. Clapp was chosen Moderator, and Rev. H. H.

the minutes. Dr. Taylor desired to remove a misap-
prehension which had been created by some remarks
which he had made at the last meeting. In referring
to a minister of questionable character, who, after
having been deposed in England, had been accepted
bv a Congregational Church in Toronto, he [Dr.
ifaylorl bad ^en reported as having said that the
Younz Men's Christian Association of Toronto had
first brought the minister alluded to before the pub-
lic on this side of the Atlantic. That was a mistake,
as a letter from one of the Vice-Presidents had as-
sured him such was not thA case, though it corrobo-

At the meeting of the New- York Historical
Society last evening, Mr. Henry C. Van Schaack read
a paper of reminiscences respecting " Old Houses'at
Kindernook, -with Their Historical Associations."
to a very large audience. Mr. Van Scbaack. by way
of an exordinm, entered a formal protest, agalust the
omission from the American hncyclope.ia of Peter
Schaack. This prote.st he begged leave to present
and make public as the only surviving son of that
Revolutionary celebrity, at whoso mansion,
erected In 1774, the most notable persons
concerned in that struggle had been entertain^'d,
among them the brave but unfortunate Montgom-
ery, Geo. Burgoyne on his way to Boston after the
surrender Ht Suratoca. and others of similar celeb-
rity. A shaving bos presented to one of the Van
.Schaacks by Montgomery is still in the possession of
Mr. Henry Sylvester, of Coxsackie ; a leather letter-
case and other relics were held by other members of
the family : and the sofa upon which Montgomery
bad rested before settine out; upon the Canadian ex-
pedition whs still preserved. Bemiuiscences of Lin-
denwall, the Van Buren residence, and other old

THE BOKERT OBSTRVCTED.
A truck belonging to D. J. Byrne, contractor,
of No. l.r.06 Third-avenue, containing two of the
massive iron girders uped in the construction of the
New- York Elevated Railroad on the East Side, and
which are intended to span the distance between
the pillars, broke dowu last evening ahout 8 o'clock
in the Bowery, between Cana and Hester streets.
The girders which were suspended from the truck by
chains fell diveclly acioss the street railroad tracks,
impeding travel and causing a ci<mp1ete blockade.
A large crowd was soon attracted to the scene, and
the sidewiilks ou either Ride of the Bowery were
blocked up for a considerable distance. The din and
uproar were somethinc fearful, and the imprecations
of the drivers and conductors helpeu to increase the
tnmult. Curs going up town were enabled to make
a little headway by jumping the track, a proceeding
which was nJt at all agreeable to the passengers
therein. Travel down lown was entirely stopped,
and the trark on the west Kide of tho Bowery, extend-
ing from Hester-street up almost to the Cooper In-
stitute, was one continuous line of horse cars. It
was fully haif an hour before the cause of the ob-
struction was removed.
DIVERSION OF WESTERN FREIGHTS.
At a meeting of merchants interested in West-
em freights, held on Monday the 25th tilt., a resolu-
tion was adopted calling a ceneral meeting of West-
em shippers to discuss the question of the diverson
of freiKhts from routes of their own selection, which
is in violation of the agreement made at the recent
freight conference by certain of the Western rail-
roads. In response to the resolution about a dozen
merchants met In the customers' countinic room of
H. B. Claflin & Co.'s establishment yesterday. Their
meeting lat'ted but aoout 10 minufes, however, and
it could not be ascertained yeaterdsy what action
bad been taken. '

London, April 3.— The Vienna pmpers,
eommentlng on Lord SaUsbary'i ebenlar
to the powers. ■*;■: "AnitiU and
England mre agreed regarding Lord Salia-
burr's oTltioism of the treaty of San Stefano
and the steps necessary to protect the Interests
of both States, and express the eooTletlon that
only by deference of Boaala to Lord Salisbnry's
views can Tar between England and Rossia be
avoided."
The limet in its lesMng editorial artiele
lays : " The main facts in the present posture
of afbirslathat Austria and England are at
one In their view of the tre«ty of San Stefano,
and of the only means by which, wlthont
war, it can be bnmght into harmony with
the jnst dalms of the other powers. The pnblte
opinion of Enrone is with them, and, if they
act together with flrmnea and loyalty, Bnssia
ma^ be Indnced to withdt»y from her polstion,
which wonld then be obvionsly onterable."
St. PxTEBSBUBa, April 3.— The AgtM* Stmt
says if Lord Salisbnrr's note is to deeUne a
congress, its end is attained ; bnt if It is in-
tended to open disensuon, disenssion by writ-
ten eommnnleations may last a year, particu-
larly as the note contains eritldsms, but no
proposals.
VassJi, April 3.— The PalUieal CorraptmOr
no, reviewing Lord Salisbury's drenlar, con-
siders that in the last resort the attitude of
Austria and Ensland win inevitably lead both
to. the same issue. If the congress does not
meet, England will take measures for the pro-
tection of her interests, which, however, would
by no means necessarily cause war.
LoNBOs, AprH 4.— The Berlin PtoA pub-
lishes an aiitde which is believed to be
"inspired." adopting Lord SaUsbury's criti-
cisms of the San SteSrno Treaty. It says Eng-
land will hardly lemalji alone in the opinion
that the Treaty of Paris, until amended, is the
la^ of Eurone. Russia, therefore, has no choice
between war or parting with the Treaty of San
Stefano, as she would have to do if she entered
• congress.
The ~
>
Timet has the following from Berlin :
" We learn from St. Petersburg that the direc-
tion of Foreign Affairs has praetieallv
passed into the hands of Gen. Isnatieff.
Russia contirues to purchase large quantities
of war material in Germany. Lord ^Usbury's
note has put an end to the plan for a revival of
the congres-s scheme which Russia momentarily
considered."
The correspondent of the Tima «t St. Peters-
burg telegraphs as follows: "As the text
of Lord Salisbury's eireular is not yet re-
ceived Russia has not decided upon an
answer, but there is reason to believe
she will not regard the circular as having any-
thing of the nature of an ultimatum. As the
British Oovemment confines itself to purely
BQ9tive crtttcigm. it may possibly be asked to
eugtrest some solution of its own. It is argued
thatif the English Cabioetreally desires to avoid
war some pacific solution may still be foirad.
The public regard the circular, however, as anew
proof that England has decided upon war,
while in the official world it is said, although
the circular is not pleasant reading for those
wdo desire peace, ithas the advantage of intelli-
gibility."
A special to the Timet from Athens says the
circular has aroused enthusiasm there.
The Timei Rome dispatch says the TanfytUa
believes that the English Ambassador is active-
lynrging the Italian Qovemmest to assume an
attitude favorable to England.
Thei/atjy Tdc7ra;>A'> Vienna correspondent
bears that Count Andrassy, recognizing
the difficnltv of assembling the congress,
is preparing for common action with England.
The consequences of Gen. IgDatiefTs report at
St. Petersburgon the result of his mission, how-
ever, yet remain to be seen.
„. The " Timai Vienna correspondent says :
_^-^ *■ r;wn the unanimous approval of the Austrian
papers of Lord Salisbury's circular is bnt a
faint reflex of its efTcct on public opinion." .
The DaHy Telegraplt't correspondent at Vien-
na hears from an official source that M. Tisza,
Premier of the Hungarian Uinistry, has
informed the Emperor and Count Andraasy
that he could not answer for the consequences
in Hungary if Austria took a decision hostile to
. Jc or independent of England. -
A rooclal to the Vienna TagbJatt from Berlin
says Rnssia's answer will contest Lord Salis-
bury's dispateh point by point, and win declare
that ^e aim of En^^and's policy is plain.

London, April 3. — This moming'g news
ihowa little change in the position of
the Eastern question. As Gen. Igna;
tieff only arrived at St. Petersburg from
Vienna yesterday evening, the effect of his
eommnnieation is as yet unknown, but
a special dispatch to the Vienna rnmdenHlatt
tiom Berlin, and a dispatch from St. Peters-
burg to the London Times, state simnlta-
aeonsly that tiiere are some grounds for
expecting a renewal of the congress negotia-
tions on the basis of the proposal made
by Prince Bismarck—that the powers be
invited to meet to revise the treaties of 1856
and 1871. "The identity of this news in time
and character from the two capitals, where it
would certainly be known first, has
given more nope of its correctness
than the form in which the statements
are made public. The Timet? St Petersburg
dispateh rives the news very vaguely, and the
jVwudwijfift'rtoIegiBmmerdy says tt»t such
an lde» is being ventilated at BeiMn. The mat-
ter is in itself not improbable. Sneh an over-
ture from Germany twonld spare Bns^ sus-
ceptibilities, and the congreas. instead of ex-
aminlDK the snoeestiTe arUeles of the treaty
oC Saa Stefano, mlsbt take the danaes
of the Paris instmment ■■« starting point of
disenssion. and detemrino how much thereof
may Bave become obsolete by events, and what
should be put in its place. Such a course
would enable Boada. on the dlaenadon
on each article of the Treaty of Puis,
to bring forward the atipnlations of tiie S»a
Stefkno Treaty, and defend them as the most
suitable snbrtdtntions for flio corresponding
clansee of the aet of 1866. There is no an-
- thentio lBfomui«on of such a proposal n»Jing
vet been madefrom any aide, however, and the

ter are said to be hindering the passage of Rus-

A Renter dispatch from Constantinople says
the Russians have oeeupied parts of Macedonia
indndedin newBidgana. The Russian mili-
tary authorities and transport officials to-day
held a council upon measures for the ultimate
evacuation of Turkey.
Renter's dispatch from Belgrade Am »por-
tlon of the Servian Army is advancing fiom
Negotin to garrison Widdin, whicn the Rus-
sians are evacuating. It is stated that the
Servians will also occupy Belgradschilc, and
probably the Une from there to Plevna.
A dispateh to Renter's Telegram Company
from Atiiens states that the Admiral command-
ing the United States squadron cruising in
Greek waters has ordered a man.of-war nom
Smyrna to proceed to Volo, near which place,
according to the latest accounts, massacres and
pillaging by the Turks still continue. The
Turkish squadron has left Volia. Its destinar
tion is unknown.
LoNtKJN. April i. — ^The Standard announces,
as a proof that there is no Intention of comply-
ing with the reported demand for the with-
drawal of the British fleet from the Sea of
Marmora, that the iron-olad ram Rupert and
iron-clad turret-ship Devastation have been or-
dered to join the squadron there to replace the
Sultan, which win return to England to refit.
LoRDON, April 4.— The I\me/ dispatch from
Athens says the American mAi-of-w^r
ordered to Volo is the . Marion. Such
aid as she can render the snlfer-
ing Greeks, however, is quite Inadequate
and perhaps too late. The French and Austriata
Consols at Volo have telegraphed for men-of-.
war, as the Turks are quite demoralized, and
have threatened a French officer. An English
man-of-war is expected. The Italian Oovem-
ment has ordered Italian vessels to receive ref-
ugees.
The lime^ dispatch from Belgrade says:
'"The Cabinet ConneU have resolved
that Servian troops shall occupy Bel-
gradsehik and Bulgaria as far as Plevna
in accordance with Russian eommands, but only
withdraw after a definitive settlement of the
Eastern question. Prince Milan declared that
Servia would co-operate wl'h Russlauntil Turkey
was completely dismembered, Servia's noliey
being the formation of a kingdom comprising
her present and former territory.
The JDaOu TtltgrapVi Pera dispatch says

London, April 3.— A deputation of the
National Liberal Federation "to protest against
the attitude of the Government, exprcMS disap-
proval of the caning out of the reserves,
and to proclaim the desire of the
Liberal Party to save Great Britain
from the shame and misery of an
nnjust war," were met at the Westminster Pal-
ace Hotel this afternoon by Lords GranviUe and
Hartington. The deputation numbered about
500 representatives from all parts of the King-
dom. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, member of the
House of Commons from Birmingham, presided.
Mr. Jotm Bright introduced the deputation to
Lords Granville and Hartington.
Lord GranviUe, addressing the deputation,
said he reqnired no stimnlns to adopt a course
Ukdy to prevent the country from being
dragged Into a war which neither its honorable
engagements nor national interests demanded ;
but itwonld be deceiving themselves and Russia
to conclude that the opposition could prevent
the Government from going to war If the Gov-
ernment was bent on a warlike policy.
Lord Hartington said the present duty of the
Opposition was to interpose by every means
in Us power obstaeles to any rash and ntconsid-
'ered action of the Government, the result of
which might be war.
NOTES OF THE CONTBOTEBST.
London, April 3. — Stocks are flat, par-
tienlarly Russian secnritiet.
■The report printed in yesterday afternoon's
PM MaU OatetU, that Count Von Benst, the
Anstro-Hungarian Abassador here, had sudden^
left for Vienna, Is untrue.
The Manchester OMardian has a dispatch
from Salonica, saying : " The English Consul
is engaging interpreters knowing the Greek,
Turkish, a^ English languages at a salary of
$150 pM' month, commencing immediately."
BkBLtN, April 3.— The Sortk Gtmian Qtuuttt
states that Count Stolberg-Wemigerode win
not at present assume his dnties as Vice-Presi-
dent of the Prussian Ministry, as the Eastern
negotiations require his presenoe at Vienna,
and will probably obUge Prinee Bismarck tore-
main in Berlin for some time to come.
London, April 4.— The DaUy TtUgrmVt
Vienna special says olBelal returns show that
last week the Russlaiis had 53,000 sick in

PonoHXispsix, April 3.— A desperate fight
oeeonreilwithcarthievesanthe Hudson Blver Ball-
mad, at Cold Spring, about 1 o'clock this morning,
resnltlBK In the capture of the moat desperate fellow
known to the New-York Police, the leader of a cans
of thieves who have their head-qnarten and rendes-
vous on Tanth-avenne, Nsw-Tork, and are known as
the "Tenth- Avenoe Oang." For years this gang has
been the terror of the Hudson Bivar BaSroadaa-
thorities, and o( Summer residenta en the Hudson ss
far north as Cold Spring. They are, in
fact, the Hlshland Brigands. and they
do not hesitate to kill. If aeeessaiy.
to carry out their plans. The desperadeeaptaredtUs
momlnsls none other than Harmon Littendorffs,
alias" Dutch Harmon." It is believed that it was
he who murdered the watchman of the Hudson Blver
Ballroad Company at Thirtieth-Street SUtlon several
years ago. He has led masked bniglars Into ele-
gsntly-famlshed residences time aad again, and
bucked and gagged the inmates, and emptied the
houses ot their treasures. He Is known as a river
pliste. and has robbed vessels ot every description
at the docks or whUe lying at anchor in the strenm.
Smce the death ot Tneey, the notorious burglar
who was killed a month ago at Inwood while tnring
to escape from the officers, the railroad deteetlTes
have made It their (peeial duty to watch " Harmon,"
They foUowed him iii;ht and day for weeks, and he
never escaped their vislluee. FiaaDy, they heard
that last night he and his gang ware to lob a fraigfat
train while It was under way. The offleen left
ThIrtieth.Stieet Depot at 9 o'doek and rode' to
Break-neck Tunnel, at the northern epd of the
Highlands, a water statian being located there.
While waiting, another freight train came alonsfrom
the aonth, and the offleers discovered men on top o(
the can puttlBg on the brakes and saw them jump
from the train. This was at o'doek this morning.
Thay "sbadowed" the fellows to ColdSprlnE, and saw
them enter a honss formerly oecnpied oy Isaac Levy.
The officers surrounded the house and forced tha front
door Just ss a man was comlnff down stairs bare-
footed. The hall was dark, and the msneltnebed the
forward officer, Detaettve tieanlan, and a stmggla an-
soad. Just then Offieen Pike and Laarenee, and
Detective QiUaspie eama n^ and In a second " Dutch
Harmon " was h> irons. Be had to be clubbed be-
fore he would yield, aad to-day one eye Is almost
closed, and bis head to fearfully swollen. The officers
foond household coeds and wearing appanlln his
possession. Thar then followed tha tram, and over-
hanling it In Rennsaelaer County, found aearhad been
broken open and robbed of the goodsfound on Harmon,
was with Harmon, but he mr-"
Harmon was taken to Troy J<
Anotner bnndar was with Harmon, bat he msAf
vy. Harmon was taken to Troy Jail,
and at court waived examination 'and was sent back
sued to get away
to await the action of the Grand Jury. His criminal
record Is among tha worst la the eonntty. In 1870
ha was arreaud In Haw-York by Capt MeCnllagh
after a desperate straggle and was taken to the
Twentieth Precinct Station. While his pedleree was
being taken he escaped throngh a window, taking
tub and all with hUn, and falling a distance of 30
feat He was afterward sirastad by Officer Glllasple
and sent on the Island, where he headed a nvoU and
again nude an escape. In Matoh, 1871, he escaped
from Ofllcers Seaolan and Oilleapie at Dobb's Ferry,
in a car robbery, after baring axehansed sluts with
tha offlears. It was than that Bryan Cavahagb, a
burglar, lost his Ufa. In 1873 Harmon was eaptated
In tha Fourth Ward in Haw-York for a silk
robbery In Naw-Jeraey. While rldine In a
hack which contained the stolen goods, he had
a desperate struggle in Centre-street with several
officers, bnt managed to elude their srasp and ran
Into Baxter-street where ha sUpped and fell,
breaking his leg. Then he was taken to BalleTne,
when a plot was laid to reacne him. Tha Jersey
officers hearlncot it, took hiin away the same day.
and he was tried and sentenced to five years' Im-
prisonment He escaped, and soon after a watchman
was killed at Thirtlath-street Station on tha Hudson
River Balhoaa. Tha PoUee in Hew-York went to
capture him at a honse In Thirtieth-street, and while
doing so one offieerfired through the door and killed
the man who held it, but Harmon escaped. He was
afterward arrested in Tenth-avenue by an officer
from the Twenty-ninth Precbtet, but while walking
alouche tripped the officer, threw him down, and
Uklne his revolver shot at the prostrate man, but did
not hit him. The report of the pistol bionght
other officers to the spot, aad he was again captured
and sent to Blaekwell's Island. Here he secured
false keys and let a laige uumDer of prisoners out
himself among the number, bnt while he was swim,
ming tha river, the gnard shot at him, and he sur-
rendered. He then served bSM time, and was taken
back to Trenton to serve an unexpired time there.
He was released In August last Since then he has
bean "working" tbe North Blver and dock* about
Haw.York, u a river thiat and ptiate. He was
with Taey whan the latter was killad at Inwood,
and now he is again in jail, and the Orand Jury
will consider his ease on Monday next. He
looks very shabby, having a dilapidated and desti-
tute appearance. His radstanee in last night's en-
counter brought blows upon him of such a character
as to take aUme fight oat of Um. Be had broken
the seal on the ear £or and threw the goods off as
tha train passed Cold Spring Station, and the eri-
dence against him is conclusive.

Washinotoh, April 3.— The speeches
were eontinned in the Senate to-day on the
subject of railroad legislation. Mr. Booth, of
California, made an able and effective argu-
ment !n favor of the Judiciary Committee's
bill. He warned certain of the Senators
that they would not be able to serve two
masters. They could not serve the people
and these corporations, but must choose one' or
the other. He was attacked with vertigo as he
was closing his speech and vres assisted from
the Senate chamber to his eonunittee-room, and
in a short tiine afterward icas carried home. It
is hoped the attack is not very severe, and that
he win be able to attend the Senate as usual to-
morrow. Mr. Dawes followed Mr. Booth,
speakiiig against both bills in effect. It seems
to be his opinion that the Government will only
secure something from the riilrjad companies
by deaUng mildly with them, and that he
is not in favor of snrreaderlnz aU the rights
of the Government as the bill oC the Railroad
Committee provides. It has become very clear-
ly established that the b II of the railroads can-
not pass. It does not lo ik from the outaide aa
though it would obtain a doxen votes ; still It
must be conceded a great deal of strength, un-
less ita Interested advocates are tremendously
deceived. The time for taking the vote is
stiU quite indefinite, but the debate is probably
drawing to an end. The struggle at lastwiU
be, on the part ot the roads, not to
secure the passage ot the Railroad Com-
mittee bUl, but to obtain the next best
terms that are possible. The attack made on
the railroad lobby, during the disenssion yester-
day in the Senate, has produced a very salutary
effect It was observed to-day that numerous
lobbyista, who have been standing about the
corridors and ante-rooms of the Senate Chamber
since this measure has beentmder consideration,
were not so bold in their cpsrations as they
have been heretofore. The remarks of Senator
Thnrman, yesterday, upon the operations of the
lobby, were even more pointed than those of
Senator Edmunds, to which attention
haa been already directed. During his
remarits yesterday Senator Thnrman said :
" For two years this subject haa been before
the Senate ; for more than two years It has
been before the Judiciary Committee of the
Senate, and in all that time I have never seen
or heard of one man hostile to the railrtMid com-
panies lobbying Congress— not one. I have
seen this Senate Chamber filled with the rail-
road lobby ; I have seen the galleries fiUed ;
I have seen the corridors filled ; I have seen
the committee-room besieged ; I have seen Sen-
ators besieged at their own houses by the rail-
road lobby, but never did I see one man or hear
of one man here urging legislation hostile to
these companies."

Washington, April 3. — ^To-day the Pres-
ident transmitted to Congress a long and elab-
orate report by Major J. W. PoweU, the ex-
plorer, upon the condition ut the public lands
of the United States situated In what Is known
as the Arid or Rocky Mountain region, compris-
ing nearly aU the lands lying westot the one hun-
dredth meridian. Major PoweU enters at length
upon a statement of the condition of these lands,
and the necessary distinctions that must be
made in their eectlement, and consequent heces-.
sity of changing the present Land laws and
methods of survey So as to suit the new condi-
tions Which are so vastiy different from those
to which the present methods of sale and
aettiement were applied. The question
of amending the Land laws Is under discussion
by the Public Lands Committee, and is attrBC^
ing large attention, particularly from the West
It Is certain that the existing law is whoUy in-
adsqiuto to provide for the settiement of the
arid lands of the United States, and their ca-
pacity and usefulness to anpport the population
can only be developed by considerable changes
in legislation.
Major PoweU says that the arid region begins
about midway in the Great Plains, extending
across the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific, but
excluding Western Washington and Oregon
and the north-west comer of California. This
region embraces more than four-tenths ot the
whole country, excltislve of Alaska. In aU ot
it the liiean -annual rain-fall is insufllclent
for agriculture. Within the arid region
only a smaU pare of the country is
irrigable, consisting of low tracta lying along
the streams, on the ' mountains, and high pla-
teeiu are the natural timber lands. Between
the low irrigable lands and the elevated forest
tracts are valleys, mesas, hUls, and mountaun
dopes, having grasses ot greater or leas value
for pasturage. TheUmit of the timber lands,
should be ctoarly defined to prevent fraudulent
aeqtilreraent as pasturage. The irrigable and
timber lands are of small extent, and their
boundaries can be easUy fixed. AU out-
side should be designated as pasturage lands.
Utah Is taken as a type in describing the char-
acteristics of these lands, and the conditions
under which they can he most profitably util-
ised. Only a smaU part of the Territory can be
redeemed by Irrigation — perhaps 1,448,960
acres, and that does not lie in a continuous
body. Utah has an area of 80,000 square
mUes, of which -2,264 are irrigable by ntilirlng
the available streams. The percentage of Irriga-
ble lands in the arid region is probably greater
than it is in. Utah. Go-operative or colony
labor is considered the best way of
reclaiming irrigable' lands. It Is sng-
gested that titie to lands should not
be given untU they are actnaUy irrigated. The
timber lands are valuable, but are exposed to
devastation by fire. The rrgion of tunber In
Utah Is 16,500 square miles, or 2S per cent of
the entire area, while the general area of stand-
ing timber is 10,000 square mUes, and that of
mining timber Is 2,500 square miles. Ingeh-
eral &e timber region is adequate to the
growth of idl flie f oresta reqnired by the indus-
&iu interests of the country if they can be pro-
tected from fire.
The deteeta of the laws permitting the strip-
ping of timber lands by holders of imperfect
titles are aUuded to. The pasturage
lands are described &il^, and suggestions made
for their economical irrigation. Surveys should
be made about water suppUea, soastogivetbe
largest posdble number of water fronta to the
aeetians. Major. PoweU thinks a general law
should be enacted to provide for the orannisa-
tion ot paatnzage dismstsof anlBeient dse, in
%hich settleis uoald niake their own regular
thma for the dMqion ot the lands, the use at
tha. water for irrigation,- watering «f stoek,
and for the pasturage of the lands in
common or aevenlly; bat each division
sfconid be owned by an individnal who should
acquire titte thereto oy the homestead methoda.

Washington, April 3.— The Committee
on Ways and Means did not do anything to-day
with the revision of the internal revenue. ' The
proposition now before the committee Is
to revive the . income tax, and this
seems to be antagonised with a proposi-
tion to suapond the operations ot the
Sinking Fund law for a term of
years. Mr. Wood Is reported ss being opposed
to reviving the income tax, and as being unde-
cided about the sinking fund ptf^position. Mem-
bers of the committee are' of oplnioii that one
of these propostUons wiU be incorporated in
the blU, and that the committee wiU be pretty
equaUy divided as between the two. It is be-
Ueved that Messrs. Wood ot New-
Tork, Sayler of Ohio, - Phelps of Con-
necticut, EeUy of Pennsylvania, Garfield
of Ohio, and Banks of MassaChusetto wlU
oppose the revival of the income tax, and that
Heaara. Tucker of Virginia, Bobbins of North
Carllnla, Harris of Georgia, Gibson of Louis-
iana, and Burcbard of lUinois wiU advocate it.
If the committeeshonld divide as above 'indi-
cated, the income tax would be defeated by one
vote. Mr. Bnrchard la believed to be tiie only
Republican on the oommittee who favors the
revival of this tax. No matur what may
be the decision of ihe committee touch-
ing the income tax, it is believed a
majority can be obtained to report in favor of
suspending the sinking fund for a period of
five years at least Those who are regarded as
favorable to the latter proposition are Messrs.
Tucker, Sayler, Bobbins, Harris, KeUy, Bur-
chard, and possibly Gibson. Should the In-
come tax be defeated, no doubto are entertained
that the sinking fund proposition wiU be
favored by a majority of the committee.

Wood has devoted a great deal of time and at-

Mr. Wood was anxions t6 have Judge Eelley

that both sides might be fully stated, but Judge
Kelley would not consent to this arrangement,

meat for the same service. They were, however,
embarrassed In procuring bonds, and requested his
SBsistance, which he cheerfully rendered. Be asked
his friends to become thdr bondsmen, and his friends
complied as a personal favor to him. He indozsed
their notes. He wrote to Postmaster Hadley at Little
Rock, asking his aid In procuring Peck's, Miner's,

that Hadley had been ot service to them. Theso bid-
ders In a great manyoasaa were tfa« lowest, and in

Ralbioh, April 3. — ^The fight for Senator
and Chief iTastiee grows fiercer and better. It is now
current npon tbe streets that Daniel G. Fowle. Judge
J>aTid Scbenck. and Senator Merrimon hare formed
an offensive and defensive alliance against Gov.
Vance and Cbief-Jostiee Smith, for the purpose of
making S^enck Chief^nstice of the Supreme Court,
to secure Merrimon's re-election to the United States
Senate, and to nominate Fowle for Governor in
1880. It is also reported that the friends of Mr.
Sndth have letters written by Mr. Scbenck
in 1874, when he was elected Snne-
rior Court Judge, abowinc that Scbenck paid
a Democratic editor $400 for his services and the
nse pf bis paper daring the campaign of that year.
It is.fartber reported that a Democratic editor was
written to a few weeks ago by Judge Scbenck and re-
quested to dnve the Driver case. This editor proved
to be a friend of Chief-Justice Smith, and refused to
pitch into that judicial officer because of the decision
in the Driver case, but exposed Mr. Scbenck by
showing bis letters. The papers of the city show
that the gentleman who has charge of
Schenck's canvass is writing np the Kuklnx
record of that gentleman, and is trying to neutralize
the efforts ef Randolph A. Shotwell, who was a Ku<
klux chief, and who is organizing members of that
order against Mr. Scbenck. It la now charged that
Gov. Vance has entered the fight for Chief -JuRtice,
and is wielding a sledge hammer in favor of Mr.
Smith. In tbe meantime the feeling is growing
that the Renublicans will hold no State convention ;
that tfae county leaders will be advised to manage
.their own affairs, in their own way, as their judg-
'ment may dictate, after the canvass nas fully de-
veloped.
Hill Keith, a white man, was put in jail
here yesterday, charged with outraeing his
daughter. When arrested Keith said that
he had been informed that Chief-Justice Smith
had decided, a few weeks ago, that incest was
not a criminal offense in North Carolina, and that he
was not subject to arrest and Danishment. To such
depths has tbe Democratic canvass descended that
thk statement of Keith is peddled with avidity upon
the streets as an ai^ument against nominating Mr.
Smith for Chief- Justice.

London, April 3. — ^The following forthet^
details of tbe assassination of the Eari of LeA-
trim and h)A clerk and driver bare been tele-
graphed from Dablin : " The Earl of Leitrim left
his residence at Melf ord shortly before 8 o^dfiek
yesterday morning, accompanied by hia dez^
and was dri^&S' o^ <^ ontslde car to Derry to
meet his solicitor. He always carried Arms.
It is supposed that the assaaalons conoealed
themselTefl behind a low embankment betwees
tbe road aad plantation, and that having
first shot the Eari of Leitrim, they shot the
clerk and the dziver so that there might be nc
witnesses. The driver was shot in the month,
the ball rasing upward, and the clerk behind
the eer, both probably at close qoarters. His
Lordship's valet was driving about a mile be-
hind, and on coming up found hia master and
the clerk Iving dead on the road. Life wai
still in the driver. The assassins meanwhile
escaped in a boat across Mnlror Bay. Tbe valet
drove back to Milford and alarmed tbe Police,
who, coming to tbe place, found tbe driver 8tilJ
alive but unconscious. He died shortly aftez^
ward. There is no doubt that the mur-
der was a^T&rian. The relations between
the Eari of lieitrim and his tenants
were unfriendly. Hia Lordship was kind
and liberal to tbe poor, but was very particular
and exacting in bis dealings with his tenantry,
visiting, with unsparing severity, the slightest
infraction of tbe mles of tbe estate. Tbe
Biband Society have a strong hold upon tho
country, owing, in a great measure, to his harsh-
ness. He i^ an iron will which disregnrded
alike appeals or menaces, and be possessed ex-
traordinary courage and perseverance in. the
pursuit of his purpose?.
The limes^ in an editorial on tfae assassina-
tion, says: **Itisno ex&^eration to say that
the news of the murder of the Earl of Leitnm,
which caused a profound sensation in the House
of Commons yesterday, when confirmed by the
Irish Secretary, has struck this country with as
much pain and amazement as an unprovoked
declaration of war."
LoNiKJif, April 4. — Two men named McTajr-
gart and Friel have been arrested on board a
steamer going from Rathmutlen to Londonderry
on suspicion of complicity in the murder of
Lord Leitrim.

doubtless to make a full iovestigataou of the

Kev. A. UcLean, of Sing S^S> Seexetary. There
irsre ptesent 159 membeni, and the gallerj and a
portion of the body Of tbo chttf^ -irere filled with
tay epectaton. Hot. Dc U. D'C Crawford, Presid-
ing Elder of the Ke«-Toric Dtetrlet, reponed that
the debts of the ebnrches in his district were la tho
aee^egate leaa than last year. In nearly erery
ehnifsh the eorrent exnenses were met by the eoUeo-
ttons and contrlbntiona. Foar poor ehnrehes in the
district were compelled to mortgage the property
owned by them. Efforts had been made in some to tn-
trodnceritoalistieserTlees, but they had signally telled.
In eonelnslon, he stated that the contrlbntiona for
bensTolent pnrpoaes-had fkllen off Bomeirhat. Ber.
Dr. DeloB Loll. Presiding Elder of the Ponghkeepste
Oistrict» reported that the efforts to rednce the In-
debtedneea of the ehnxohes there had resolted in
gratifying snecess.
Rat. J. E. Gorse. D. D., Presiding Elder of the
PrnttsTille District, said that dnring the past year
there had been in that district an advance in the es-
timate of the support of Pastors and in the Confer-
ence collections. The report of the year's spiritual
work was favorable. Rer. Dr. Goodman, President
of the Uethodlst Eplscopnl Colored Orphans' Home
of Lonisiana, informed the Conference that the instl-
totion in question was in great need of money.
He annooneed that, with the riew of meeting the
emergency, a troupe of colored singers had . been or-
ganised andwerehereto gireconcertslnthe churches,
which he hoped would {^ve them a guod reception.
In the afternoon, at 2:30, Ber. Paul B. Brown, who
has completed his fiftieth year In the ministry, de-
livered a semi-centennial sermon. Ber. Ur. Brown,
la 1838 or 1839. was censured by the New-Yoik
Conference for participating In an antl-sJavery meet-
ing at Utlea. Be?. Drs. Floy and True were
also involved in the same eensore. Fiv« years ago
the vote of censure was nnanimonsly rescinded by
the New-York Conference, and Bev. Mr. Brown then
received nnmeasnred pzaiae for that for which he was
blamed in the anti^slavery days. As a prelude to
his sermon, Mr. Brown gave some reminiscences
of his career aa a minister. After the singing of a
hymn the preacher delivered his sermon, taking his
text from First Kings, viii.: 57 ; Psalm hat: 18,
and Psalm xxvii.: 9, showing the omnipres-
ence of God. God with the Chuich was Its
power, its j oy, an d its strength, and
without Him it could do nothing. A cannon
contd be loaded with powder and ball, but If that
was all chat were done a child might ilumber at its
muzzle with safety. Touch it with a lighted match
and its contents would crash throngh 20 inches of
armor; mnd so in the ministry, let a man be as gifted
as can be, if the Holy Ghost does not set fire to his or-
^nization he will be able to do nothing for God. He
[the preacher] believed there wss too much talk
aboat mnkinK the churches more attractivB. He hnd
beard that in one church not far from tne City the
ftdvisability of establishing a shoottng-gallery for the
amusement of the young people haa been consid-
ered. He believed that zor the same reason every
church mieht be proTided with a "ffambliag heaven
or a drinking saloon. There would be no difflcnlty
in proeurlne a license, aa it would be for the acoom-
nodaclon of travelers. With all these attractions
the cbuTchev would most likely do a good business.
The theological schools seemed to be a&ald of fol-
lowing the frrooves made by the Holy Ghost, and
w^re 80 afraid of old paths Uiat they were refusing
to follow in the footsteps of Christ. ThaConfer-
ene^ sermon was delivered at 7:45 P. M. by Bev. Mr.
Jlliev.
The thirtieth annual session of the New<Tork
^letbodist Conference. East, was benn at 9 o'clock
yesterday znomlog in the Flnt-Flaee methodist Epis-
copal Chnrch, comer of Henry-street and Flrst-plaee,
Brooklyn. Deletraten were nrescnt from the JLong
Island District, the Bridgenort District, and the Kew-
H aveo District. Bishop Foster presided. An hour of
devotional exercises preceded the opening of the Con-
ference. Bev. D. A-GoodsellwasreappointedSeareta-
ry, and Rev. W. H. Simonson, Kev._ D. D. Ferris, and
Kev. Charles Buckmen. assistants. The varlons
standing committees were appointed, after which
Bishop Foster delivered a brief address of eonsratn-
tioD. He was followed by Bev. I>r. A. S. Hunt, the
nf>wly-elected Secretary of the Ajnerlcau Bible So-
ciety. At the conclusion of Dr. Hunt's address a
committee of seven was appointed, to whom are to
be referred all applications for admission to the Con-
fArenee. Bishop Foster said that it had been cns-
tomnry in some of the Conferences lo appoint Com-
mittees on Conference Relations, and' he would
leave it to the Conference to decide whether
snch a committee should be appointed. A long
debate followed, in wMch several of the mem-
bers participated. Blshoo iToster explained the ob-
ject of the committee, if appointed, which would be
tolook after the interests of superannuated and super-
numerary preacliers. Bev. Dr. Curry oxiposed the ap-
pointment of the committee. The matter had been
riefore the Conference for a number of yeati, and had
always been rejected, because they thought the old
way the beat way. Besides, the members of the Con-
ference were all so well known to each other that a
committee was not necessary. Dr. B«okley thought
the committee ought to be appointed for the purpose
of discussing delicate questions regarding the depo-
sition to bemaije of superannuated and supernumer-
ary preachers. He had such a case to bring before the
Conference. Rev. Dr. Woodruff and Rev. Dr. Ket-
tetl spoke at lenfrth in favor of the appointment of
the eommittee, and Bev. Dr. Roche and Bev. Dr.
Henson in opposition. Without arrivluK at anv con-
clusion, the Conference adjoTimed until 9 o'clock
this morning.
At 3 o'clock P. K. the anaiverssry of the Women's
Missionary Sodety was held. There was a Urae au-
dience composed mostly of ladies. Mrs. J. WT Hart
presided, and the meetmg was opened with appropri-
ate devotional exerdsea. Including a prayer by Mrs.
Oracelr. Addresses were made by Mrs. Dr. Gauze,
of Philadelphia, and Mrs, SWdmore. of New- York,
Mr*, akidmore Is Corresponding Secretary of the
New-York Branch of the Society, and told briefly what
the sodety istryingtodoamongthe millions of women
in China, Japan. India, and Turkey, who ar« sitting
In heathen darkness. The society was organized
In 1669. In response to a call from miseionarlee in
India. Its orgtunizers were a small band of herote
women. The men conld be reached by the mtaslon-
I rice ftlreadv In the field, but the women could not,
andnever would have been, had not the preaeni so-
ciety been formed, Mrs. Skldmore closed with an
earnest appeal for aid. Two eenta a week from

NEW-JERSEY LEGISLATURE.
THE WOOD TAKIFP BILL DBNOTTNOED —
SPECIAL LXGISLATION POB JEB8E7 CITT
— THE UATOR DIVESTED OF HIS VETO
POWER— THE 1KTERE3T QIJESTION.
From Owr CVm Cormpoiidral
Tbkntox. Wednesday, April 3. 1878.
The measure pending la Congress known as
the ''Wood Tariff biir* came in for Its share of
dlseassion in the Senate this afternoon, and would
have come up in the House also if the members bad
not confessed that up to the Ume when Mr. Stevens
brought it to their notlee by the introduction of a
resolution denonnclng it they had ncrver heard of It.
The question was brought up by Senator Hobart,
who offered a reaolution requesting the representa-
tives of New-Jersey In both branches of Congress to
oppose its adoption. Senator Sewell said that it
would prove verv hurtful to the glass-makers of
South Jersey, and to the potters of Trenton. Sena-
tor Hobart said that it would paralyze the silk in*
dostry, in which, since the dose of the locomotive
shops, upward of 10,000 Pateraon people found
their llvuig. The resolution was adopted tmani-
mously.
The House bill making the Aldermanio lines In Jer-
sey City conform to the '* A»semblym»nlc " lines
reached final passage in the Senate, and was put
through with an amendment. The bill has been
rushed through so as to be operative in time to
affect the local election In JerstfV.Citv, which Is to be
held next Tuesdsy. It directs the Aldermen to re&r-
ranee the wsrds st once. The Mayor has veto super-
▼islon over all acta of the Aldennea nndar the ''ity
charter, and If Mayor Seidler were to tsks it Into his
head that the renrrangini: of the lines merited a veto,
as he probably would, the scheme wonld. after all
the haste, be defeated. So the Senate adopted an
amendment dlveatinz him of his veto powur In this
partleular ease. The amendment was concurred In
by the House, and the bill is now in the hands of the
Governor for his signature.
The bill providing that an Indictment for libel mav
be found In any part of the State, but the trial shall.
If the defendant desires it. tnlte place in the county
in whloh his paper Is published, was ordered to a
third reading this afternoon in the House. It Is
probable tliat in the excitement and confusion of the
closing hours of the session an attempt will be made
to rush through a bill practically restoring the legal
rate of interest to 7 per cent. The cobtluned Intro-
duction of 7 per cent, bills Is the forerunner of sn^h
a movement. To-day Mr. Hobart introduced one in
the Senate, and Mr. Harris one In the House. There
are now four bills of this kind pending in one house
or the other.

• Coroner Bassett, of Newark, yesterday- took
the ante-mortem statement of Mrs. Mary BitUer,

that she had become sick after takli^ some cough
medicines ; that to relieve her her husband had given
her some schnapps ; that she ran Into the street and
was chased by three men, who, having caught her.
put a doth over her face. The cloth was saturated
with something that burned her and rendered her
nnoonsdoua. To Chief of Police Meldmm she
aidd that she had been chased by two
men from the comer of Springfleld-arenae and
Howard-street into Bank-street. She screamed all
the way, but no one went to her assistance. The
men finally overtook and seised her. One of them
opened her month, and the other threw corrosive
sublimate or some other noison Into IL Detective

This morning latenst in the aeenea of laat ereaing

tion by Mr. Panamore recmng the ejection from the
floor of the Senate of members of the Assembly, and
ealHng for the appointment of a committee to ascer-
tain the rights ot the memben In the pnmlaes.
There waa a warm diseasaton over it, and the resolu-
tion waa withdrawn.
The report, which exculpates Oen. Mott, waa called
np in the Houae thia afternoon. Mr. Ely. of Mon-
montb, one of the 10 membera who tt waa aald
would not abide the reaolntion of the cauena to
adopt the roportt moved that Ita consideration be
postponed till Friday. Tha motion waa oppoaed by
Mr. Matthewa and Mr. Qilham, and was lost bv a
vote of 9 to 3G. Mr. Deacon, of Burlington, then
took the floor in opposition to the noort. The law,
he said, forbids the infliction of corporal punishment
on prisoners confined In the Stato Prison.
The stretcher was a eorporsl - punishment
and by using that inatmment nf torture Mott bad
violated the law. The death of Snooka on the
stretcher and the destruction of tho health ot a
youth named Farley from punishment Inflicted In
§rison, were referred to. The ooneeahnmt of
uooka' death from the coi^nty officials by the prison*
oSlrials was their confession that they had tnex-
cuaably violated the law. The arrogant apirlt in
which Oen. Mott controla the Institntion was indi-
cated by hla deehuratloo to Coroner Bodlne that if
any of tne prison subordinates notified tha Coroner
of anv death in the prison they would 1m at onco dis-
charged.
Mr. Voorhies spoke In favor of the report. He aaid
that the diacipline of Gen. Mott la the only thing
that keepa the BOO prlsonen, the hardest criminals
In the State, under subjection. Men are sent there
to be pnnished, and their experienoe there should b«
such that they wonld not want to go baek again.
The debate, which continued for over three hour,,
was closed Dy Messrs. Sykes, of the House Commit-
tee, and by Speaker Kgan, who moved the previoua
question. Some of the 10 members wlio In the eau-
cua atood out agalnat the caucus action approving the
report yielded their iwsent. Mr. Ely. of Monmouth,
who led the revolt agslnBt the rancus, said that he
had acted then on information and belief, but he had
since read the testimony, and he was readv to favor
tho report. The report was sustained by the follow-
ing vote, the Republicana being in iudia. and the

Mr. Booth, ot OaUtorala, addressed the Senate

to the amount of bondaat maturity, and said the
Cost of the roads was repnsented Sa follows: First

905,000,000 1 land mortgage bonds. 920.00a000;

stock did not represent any nal amennt Inveated In

tion of their pnfiu to protect their credit and main-
tain their solvency.
Mr, Thdbicah, of Ohio, said he had given notice
that be would ask a vote on the bill to-day, bnt
owing to the abaence ot some and the illness of

Mr. Paddocv, of Nabraaka, and Mr. OHAms, of
Colorado, wished delay until the substitute offered,
by the latter thia morning could be printed and laid
befon tha Sanatora.
Mr. Thcbiiah said he had looked into the bill
enongh to know that he eonld never accept it as a
anbstltnte for the bill, for It sought .to tie the pro
rata propositions of the Senator to this bill. He
thons^t each proposition should stand alone, and he
eonld not consent to conpling the two in one bill.

Mr. Daws^ of Maasaehnsetts, was disposed to
criticise both bills rather thsn support ettner. Be
tiionght, with an avowed willingness on the part of
the roads to act, a atnklng fand could be eatab lished
by the eo-opentioa of the Government and the roads.
Seeulty. abaolote security, was the flnt aeceuity.
He argued that the amount retpiind by the Judiciary
bill had all to'come from tha passengen and freighters
on the roads, and that the amonnt of 9175,000,000
to be gathered in this way was an unneeeaaary bur-'
den, and made the ttind lesa aeeure. He claimed
that it wonld be better to extend the time and
divide the burden, spreading it over a longer period.
He expreased no doubt ot the power ot Congress to
impose such obligations as in ita wisdom seemed
})roper. To show tbe insecurity ot a sinking fund
f left to the cbanging views of a majority, he said,
even tbe Judldary Committee, wUeh reported tbe
bill, had changed ita mind three timca, to show
which he read tram nporta of that committee in
1871, in which he claimed a position was taken that
the company could not be disturbed until the
Biatnrlty of the bonda.
Meaera. Eomnins and Tbcbhaic said that that re-
port waa made upon a reaolntion directing the com-
mittee to Inqnin what the law then waa, and had ao
nfcnnce to the powen of the Government.
Mr. Dawxi said whatever the dnumstances wen,
he believed he had correctly quoted the language of
the report. He next read portloas of a bill reported
from usat committee two yean ago. in which he said
a diffennt view waa taken from that taken in the
pending bill.
Mr. EDifTXDS. of Vermont, asked if the Senator
took the gronnd that it was unsonatitational for Con-
gress to attempt to prevent the companies from di-
viding up this psoperty and prevent the payment of
tbe bonifs as maturltv.
Mr. Da WIS nplled that he had taken tha position
that If It was pronoaed to administer a trust or to
pnvlde a special Bankruptcy act for a corpontton,
than was alight wamnt for it In the CohstKution-
Mr. EDMUwns prasaed him for an expreaaion nf
bla opinion aa to the conatltntionality of the pending
bilL
Mr. Dawxs said then wen aone featuna ot the
bill the constitutionality ot which ha would like to
see mon clearly pointed out. Mr. EDwnfDSaignad
the right of the Government to reqnin aeeuttty for
the payment ot tha bonds at maturity, and main-
tained that It had been jndisially eaUbllshed re-
peatedly that the Deglslatnn had the power to regu-
late the admtnlstntlon of the altaira ot corpora-
tions, and even indlvidnala when public intamata
wen Involved, ao as to conserve the general intensts
ot tha people-
Mr. HASOiirr ssid that ia 1871 tbe questions arose
whether the intentt was payable now, and whether
tha whole transportation money should be held in
tb* Traaanry to moat this interest, and,
after a discnsskm in tbe Senate, an amend-
ment waa propoaed to allow the ques-
tions to be carried to the Ooort ot Olafant.
This amendment waa favored by Mr. Xdmnnds, who
wonld be glad to have the Supreme Court decide
these questions i tor if they deddcd in favor of the
companies than was an end to the question. The
Supreme Const had decided the ciuectlou that the
transportation must be paid; yet it was proposed to
go oa with these addltiODal requinment* until then
would be nothing left Be read extracts from the
reauriks of several Senaton to show that it wss then
considered thst such a dsdsiao of the Supreme
Court would be final.
Mr.EDVinnwsaldha thonght now aa he thought
then as to tbe law, and be felt that, if the gentleman
from Calltornia would argue the case of the people
the Supnme Court might nverse its decision, as it
had in the legal tender and soma other cases.
Mr- Mattbkws was recognbad as entitled to the
floor to-momw. and at 5:l5 P. M-, on motion ot
Mr. Spencer, tbe Senate adjourned.

biVOCRATIO PAPER OF THE WEST OF A
FREE OOIfVERSATIOK BETWEEN EZ-OOT.
HCNDRIOKS AND THE KANSAS MEMBER
OF THE DEMOORATIO NATIONAL OOM-
MITTEE.
from (As Otnciana« JSnfiiirar. April S.
A member of the JSnquirer staff retnmlng
tram the East met Hon. Thomss Hendricks, of In-
diana, sad Hon- WUUam Eaton, of Kansas, on the
can last Sunday. Mr. Hendricks had been to Rilla-
delphls and Mr. Eatoa to Washington. The conver-
sation drifted Into a nvlew ot the laat Presidential
contest, during which lu erron and its blondsn and
what might have been the result but for these wen
quite freely spoken of. Mr. Eaton is a member ot
the National Democratic Committee, and has been
such efver since the memorable Charleston Conven-
tion, and is thoroughly posted in the history ot the
different PnaldentUf^mpalgns since that time. He
^a firmly ot the opinion tiiat TUden's management
of the last campaign was as great a botch as ever
he had known. An ardent believer in
the gnanbaek, he waa not in favor ot
the nomination ot " Slippery Sam " at St.
Lonla, and aeeinf: that old Bill Allen
had no chance then he did all in lila power to aecun
the place tor Gov, Hendricks. "It waa no uaa,
though," aaid he; "Tilden had aenC a big fellow
named Finley to the North-west, and backed him
with plenty ot money to use in his interest. He
went first Into Michigan, and bis line of argument-
was that Tilden was an immensely waalthy nun,
worth over 97,000,000, and that he was WUUng to
spend 92,0(>0,000 of this money in the campai^"
'But Tilden wasn't worth any sach sum." inter-
poaed Gov. Hendricks ; " I doubt it he wss worth
more th» 92,500,000. Still, he is a very
rich nun." f I know he was not as rich aa he '
was represented, " continued Mr. Eaton. " yet the
tale waa believed, and it had it* aflfect. Finley went
troja Michigan into Iowa. Wlaeonain, Minncaota,
anobtber States in the vldnlty, aad succeeded, by
appealing to the cupidltr of every impecnnlous
Democntic editor, in enlisting thair aaaiatance, they
hoping to be remtmerated for their work after the
nomination. St. liouia waa filled with theae clacquen
when the conventiott met, and thair noiar gabtue in-
duced the Southernera, wbo wen only anxioua to
get tbe control ot their State Governmenta, and to
relieve themselves ot mllitaiy tynanv, to beUsve
thst he wss the only man who could be elected if
nominated, and so he procured thair support."
The St. Lonla platform than became we aubject of
consideration, during whieh Ur. Eaton said to Mr.
Hendricks: "Governor, it Domhsdmer's interpnta-
tlon of tH* meaning of tha platform had been
adopted as orthodox I don't think you would have
accepted the nomination for the Vice-PtMlden» on
Itr would you f" Gov. Hendricks, thus appealed to,
replied: "No, I should not. Dorsbeimer waa too
^uch elated st the victory of Tilden than to be
taken aa authority on tbe raeanlnjt of the jdatform.
He modlfiea hia views conaiderably afterwud. and
when ha came into Indiana daring the campaign hla
apeeches pleased our people very much, and wan
imazeeptlonabia on the money question plank
ot tha platform." Onr young man, hav-
ing ventured tb. opinion that Ohio ' could
have been carried for Tilden had proper
exertions been made to induce enongh of the dlaaat-
isfled Repnbliean miners of the Tnseanwaa and
Mahoning Yalleya to vote th* Cooper ticket to de-
ttnv the Republican majority, Mr. Eaton said :
" Whv. Ohio had no right to complain ot the mone-
tary help given her. ^* got twice the amonnt ol
flnaneial ud that Indiana did. I waa told ao by Til-
den himself." " Whogot this money t" asked our
youth. " Well, John Thcmpaou got 940,000 ot it,"
nsponded Mr. Eaton; and than he added : "lam
most decidedly against the us* of mon*y in a politi-
cal campaign- Tou know. Governor, tb* bulk ot it
is misapplied and goea into the pocketa ot a lot of
Solitical dead-beata, some of whom liav* not made a
ollar outside of polities in 20 rears." " Toat ia so, "
replied Gov. Hendricks, " tbe only legitimate tue to
which money can be applied la for the payment 'of
the expenses ot speakers, and for the printing and
distribution of campaign documents."
"*' I wonder bow much Tilden did spend In the
campaign f" said our representative. "Directly,
about 9250,000," was Ifr. Eaton's response.
" though Hewin told m* that he and Ed Cooper,
his brother-mlaw, bad spent abont 9120,000 addi-
tional. Be said that he thought Tilden ahould re-
munente them for this expenditure. 1 learned
afterward that Tilden did pay them all but abont
910,000 apieoe ot thia aam, and he haa probably
paid them in full by thia time."
The chancea ot tha dllfemnt candidatea for the
next Pnsidentlal campaign wen then considered In
s general sort ot way. Mr. Eaton thought that Til-
den waa virtually out of the race, as the people did
not regsrd him as a leader flt to rally around, and
his eandidacT did not arouse any enthualasm among
them. On the contrary, be thonght that Gov. Hen-
drioka had the inside track for the prize, though, he
added, "in Washington City they an moving
heaven and earth tor Thurman. Bamum, the
Chairman ot onr committee, Is for him, and
so an Bsariy all tha Democntic Sena-
tora. WhQe I waa there I waa approached
by dosena on the aubjeet ; among them
by Senator Davia, ot West Virginia." "But then,"
interpoaed Gov. Hendricka, "no candidate of the
Senate waa ever elected Prealdent of the United
States, and none bnt Clay ever got the nomination."
"That la ao," nnlied Mr. Eaton, and tben be aald:
"By the way. old Bill Allen and Thurman are not
on apeaktng tenaa. I was very much amuaed at old
Bill, whoiaoneof the nobleat .men alive, ("Yea, he
Is," affirmed Gov. Hendricks,) the last time I met
him. We wen talking about different men, when
Thurman 'a name waa mentioned. ' That nephew ot
nUne waa once a Democrat, for he imbibed his princi-
ples from me,* said he, 'but now he has tun^hia
face to Wall-atreet and his back to the comilelds of
Ohio. and. by , he's one of us no more.' " Gov.
Hendricks laughed heartily at this anecdote, and
shortly after said: " Thcpapen wen after me with a
sharp stick not long since l>ecanse X did not come ont
and give my optnlona on the ailver guestten. Now, I
was not a member of tbe Houae of Representatives
or of the Senate, and I did not see any good reaaou
for matting into print on tha aubject unsolicited. I
was all ri0>t on the queatlon, aa my frianda well
knew." ^ •

AN OLD ISSUE Oy TRZAZ.
A salt begnn about 14 years ago, when Gen.
Barney was Colleetor of this port, was brought un
for trial yesterday In the United States Circnit Court,
jury term, before Jndge Wallace, and bids fair to
occupy several days in the hesring. The setlan is
brousht by Hirshfield A Stem, importers, sgalnxt
Hiram Barney, as Collector, Ac, to recover a sum ot
money whieh the plaintiffs daim to have paid aa du-
ties, but under written protest, on a lot of velvet*
bronght to thia port in 1863. The Government
levied duty on it as silk and cotton plush
at 40 per cent, whereas the plaintifla aa-
sert tliAt It was silk and cotton velvet
and as snch liable to a tax of but 30 per cent. The
Government, who appear by Assistant District At-
torney Herrick, claim that the ptotest filed by the

AccoTding to oar dispatches this morning
from Washington, the Ways and Means
Committee of the House may be regarded
as sure to propose either the revival of the
income tax or the suspension of the Sinking
Fund law, with the probabilities in favor
of the latter. Either is a natural corollary
to the Tariff bill, and may be supposed to
to be intended to furnish the revenue ne-
cessary to carry out that measure. But
there is only on^ purpose for which the oper-
ation of the sinking fund can be fairly and
honorably suspended, and that is to release
the revenue which would otherwise be de-
Toted to the sinking fond to the purposes
of resumption. If more money is needed
than we can now command in order to make
changes in the tariff, it can very properly
be obtained from the taxation of tea and
coffee.
The circular, or rather ultimatum, recent-
ly put forth by Eagland has been answered
by Sussia with another ultimatum of her
own, addressed to the Porte. This latter is,
in substance, a demand for the surrender
of the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, the
forts on either side of the former and the
towns of QaUipoU and Boulair, which com-
mand the latter, being among the points
which Bossia proposes to occupy^ The
reported advance of Bossian troops upon
Gallipoli in support of these demands has
been contradicted, and certainly appears
both improbable and anrntetligible in the
present position of affairs ; but the rumor
of a ttwning toward England manifested by
the «ver-vacillating Cabinet of Vienna is,
to some extent, borne oat by the movement
of the Army of Bulgaria toward the Danube,
and by the orders sent to Servia to occuny
the Danubian stronghold of Widdin and the
fortified islet of Ada-Kaleh. Servia's prompt
obedience to this command is somewhat
strange after her late show of discont3nt ;
but the conduct of Austria is int«Iligible
enough. It is to her interest that England
andSossia should come to blows, as she
ean then make her own terms with the
latter ; but any open demonstration of
this theory would be imprudent under the,
eyes of Prince Bismarck, who is still labor-
Jog to translate the visionary congress into
Should the understanding between the
Tammany and Kepubliean members of the
Senate permit the latter to have any opin-
ions of their own in regard to legislation
affecting this City, it is to be hoped that
they will so amend the Municipal Salaries
bill as to make it something better than the
delusive sham which has been adopted by the
Assembly. If JoHK Kellt is to be made
satocrat of New-Tork, he should at least be
held to the offer made by him to reduce the
t»x rate of this year from $2 55 to $2 35,
instead of leaving the proposed reduc-
tion to take effect in 1379. He
■hoold, moreover, be compelled to make
the saving of $2,000,000 required by
the bill out of sa'.aries alone, instead of
looking for 25 per cent, of it to the reduc-
tion in the State tax, and for most of the
remainder to his success in "bridging
OTw" bonds or cutting down the necessary
Bppropriationa of departments which do not
surrender to him the control of their patron-
i^^. If the BepnbUcans.inthe Assembly
have not fairly made up their minds
that Tammany Hall may safely be allowed
to do its worst in the City, they will not re-
dno« the Aldermanie majority needed to au-
thorize on expenditure of public money to
two-thirds. The charter already requires
Ufiree-foortbs, and that is at least a safe
Xiompromise between the four-fifths oripn-
ally proposed fcy the Financial bill and the
two-thirds limit which hmf been rashly «ub-
(titnted. ^ ,

tion, whiuh. may, according to eirenm-
stances, be f<nuid more or less loeid^ Mr.
SPAtTLOiNa also desires it to be under-,

CAlvnr" for yourself, I have notUng but
personal respect," he ought to have added,
"because I never had any business in yonr
court since you took charge of it as Surro-
gate." If he had, it might, of course, have
altered the ease."
Some interesting items of information
are being brought out in the Fish investi-
gation. Mr. Davis L. Bakes, a Demo-
cratic Assemblyman from the Nineteenth
City District, testified to having had an
interview with the Tammany Senators, Ho-
GAK and EccLBSiNE, on the night before the
vote on the Smyth trial, in the course of
which thede Senators assured him that
they were going to sustain the Governor.
Strictly speaking, the time of this " inter-
view " was between 12 and 1 o'clock on
Wednesday morning, and .the place was a
room in Congress Hall. Cdnsidering the
probable concomitants of the intervietv, it
is not surprising to find that Senators Ec-
CLEStRE and Hooak give rather a misty ver-
sion of their talk with Baker, and insist that
their determination to sustain the Governor
was announced merely as a "joke," and was
intended to be taken in a purely ironical
sense. Mr. Edward Cubrah, Democratic
Assemblyman from the Fourth Albany Dis-
trict, had, in conversation with Mr. Fish on
the Monday preceding the vot« on the
Smyth case, elicited an opinion from
that person to the effect that
Smyth ought not to be removed
and would not be. Mr. Fish added that the
Bepublioans would have the next^egisla-
ture, and that Senator Pierce and others
would put up enough money to secure the
re-election of Mr. CoKKLlNO to the
United States Senate. The witness
declined to admit that he thought
Mr. Fish was "joking," and ^emphatically
stated that he, at least, was not. It will be
observed that our correspondent's testi-
mony gives a very clear statement of the
origin of the charges against Fish, and that
a lengthy cross-examination by the adroit
GEOReE Bliss, Jr., failed to shake his evi-
dence in any particular.
TILDEN AND IBE PBESIDENCJ.
While Mr. MoNTQOXERT Blaib and a
handful of malignants of either i>arty are
talking of ousting Mr. Hayes and installing
Mr. TiLDEN in the Presidency, more practi-
cal Democrats are discussing the means em-
ployed by the ^tter to obtain his nomina-
tion, and congratulating themselves upon
deliverance from his pretensions. The
Cincinnati Enquirer prints with tolerable
detail a free and easy conversation upon
these points between Mr. Hemdricks and
Mr. Eatok. of Elansas, a member of the
National Democratic Committee and one of
the veterans of the party. Mr. Eaton is
the more communicative of the two, and
his testimony shows how thoroughly the
Tilden tactics are understood, and with
how much contempt their author is regarded
by straightforward Democrats. TaoEN, Mr.
Eaton tells us, began by circulating through-
out the West fabulous statements as to his
wealth and the proportion he was ready to
spend to secure his election. " A big fel-
low named Finley" was the agent em-
ployed for the purpose, and he gave the
Democrats of Michigan, Ulinois, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, Iowa, and other States the
idea that his master was worth seven mil-
lions and would pay out two of them to
gain his end. People were poor and the
bait took. The financial prospect in the
campaign was not brilliant, and the promise
of two millions in a lump was more potent
than all other pretenses. In fact, Tiloen's
"big fellow," journeying before the St.
Louis Convention, spoke of nothing but
money and of the lavish use of it that
would follow the desired nomination.
Finley seems to have been particularly
successful with " impecunious Democratic
editors," who, according to our Kansas
authority, worked zealously for Tilden,
" hoping to be remunerated for their work
after the nomination." We are further told
that "St. Louis was filled with these
clacqners when the convention met," and
Messrs. Hendricks and Eaton concur in
the opinion that Tilden's success in that
body was due to the free use of promises,
and the pressure employed by those who
really had some of Tild^n's money in their
pockets.
The promises, it is needless to add, were
not redeemed. Instead of expending two
millions, Tilden's total direct expenditure,
as estimated in the talk we are epitomizing,
was," about $250,000," "though Hewitt
told me," remarks Mr. Eaton, "that he and
Ed. Cooper, Ms brother-in-law, had spent
about $120,000 additional." ^ They ex-
pected to be repaid, of course, and really
have been paid the larger part As these
figures came from a member of the National
Committee, we take it that the price which
Mr. Tilden really did pay toward the acqui-
sition of the Presidency was, in round fig-
ures, $370,000, exclusive of the cost of
working up the feeling which effected his
nomination. As the " big fellow named
Finley" dealt more freely with promises
than cash, there is a good deal of oatstand-
ing bitterness in the North-west, and not
one of the " impecunious Democratic edi-
tors" of whom Mr. Eaton speaks now refers
respectfully to poor Mr. Tilden. Messrs.
Hendricks and Eaton, moreover, rub their
hands with satisfaction, and thank their
stars that TiLOEMno longer burdens their
party. Inquiries at Washington have satis-
' fied them that Tildkn is not even mentioned
for the next race.
The -gossip is seasonable because it brings
into contrast with the stuff which the Mary-
land Le^slature has been induced to sanc-
tion the common-sense conception of TiL-
DEif and his ways which prevails unong the
great body df his i>arty. So &r are they
froiu desiring to strengthen his ehanee for
a renomination that they speak of him as
one virtually dead. They are half ashamed
of. his memory. His selection at St I<ouis

qi&intanca which they have sinee aoqtdred

gestion, and Mr. Eatox'uow knows that he

If the (Sneinnati Enquirer will go on in
its good worit, and plaee a reporter wherever
two or three leading Democrats are gathered
together, it will show how utterly hopeless
is MoBTOOiUEBT Blair's attempt to eetsb^
lish Mr. TiLom's elaim upon the f;ratitiide
and admiration of the Demooraey. ^dhe
sejittered tJie promised two millions like a
man, his friends among " imi>ecuiiions Dem-
ocratic editors" might have been more nu-
merous. As things are, he is of no more
aoconnt than a worn-out ear-horse. Never.
popular with the rank and file of the party,
he has now few adherents among its leaders.
Of the Democratic Senatcrs, Mr.* Eatpn de-
clares, not one is in his favor. The ftiet
that they ignore him as a candidate for
1880 may not be proof that they are averse
to the scheme for testing judicially his title
to the position occupied by Mr. Hates.
But the tone of the Senators is in harmony
with the spirit andporposes of the party,
and these take no cognizance either of
Blair's absurd project or of Tiloen's in-
sane ambition. Enough is known with re-
gard to influential Democrats in the House
to exclude hope for Mr. Blair in that quar-
ter. The supporters of the Electoral Com-
mission are not disposed, for the sake of a
disappointed man, to retouch work which
tho Congress of the time accepted ; and
even the opponents of the commission are
too familiar with the feeling out of doors to
dream of making party capital out of a re-
opening of the Presidential question. The
struggle of 1880 will come quite soon
enough.
As for the supposition that Mr. Blair
will receive help from anti-Administration
Bepublicans, we shall believe it when the
help is actually rendered. That from some
cf these sources he has received certain
kinds of encouragement we are not disposed
to doubt Mr. Tilden is not the only am-
bitious man in the world nor Mr. Blair the
only foolish one. And it is not improbable
that prominent Bepublicans having these
characteristics have indirectly fostered the
plan, not with any idea pf reducing it to
practice, but in order that Mr. Hates
might be seared and so brought to terms.
It is not the first trick of this sort that has
been tried. The Bepublicans referred to
have long been anxious to convince the
President that he cannot exist without
their friendship, and they may not he un-
willing now to have him frightened by Mr.
Blair's mimic thunder. Mr. Hates has
seen too much real fighting to be alarmed
at the Maryland resolution, which, as he
well knows, will in any event end in
smoke. We suspect, too, that the malcon-
tent BepubUcans on whose aid Mr.- Blair
relies, are aofftciently conscious of the fu-
tility of the whole scheme to realize the
risks which any open sanction of it would
entail upon themselves. They rather like
the mischief, undoubtedly, and they would
be happy if they found that it spoiled the
slumbers of the President But there is not
one among them reckless enough to vote for
a proposition that would plunge the country
into turmoil for the sake of Samuel J.
Tilden.
KEEPING THE DOOR.
Thesessionof the House of Bepresenta-
tives yesterday was almost wholly taken up
with a discussion of tbensase of Door-keeper
Polk. It may be said that this is a trivial
matter. But it is nevertheless true that the
present majority in the House of Bepre-
sentatives is never occupied with anything
more serious. Nothing is more serious to
the average Democratic politician than
any matter which concerns the disposition
of public patronage. When the Democratic
Party was last in power in the nation, it
divided on that issue. Buchanan only
followed in the footsteps of his U-
lustrious predecessor when he made
a split iu his party ine-vitable by disap-
pointing one hungry faction of place-hunt-
ers and rewarding another hungry faction.
" Office before country," is the motto of the
gentlemen who now control the House of
Bepresentatives. Therofore, let no man
murmur because one branch of Congress
finds its most engrossing public employ-
ment in putting a delinquent Door-keeper
on the rack and keeping him there day
after day while his pay, emoluments, ap--
pointments, shortcomings, and general fit-
.ness or unfitness, are exhaustively dis-
cussed.
Thero is a grotesque side to this pitiful
case which cannot escape the observaift
reader. The Door-keeper, humble thou^
his title may be, has an enormous patron-
age. He should be known as Superintend-
ent of the House of Bepresentatives. He
employs a small army of clerks, door-
keepers, pages, laborers, and runners.
That is tb say, 'he nominally employs them.
In reaUty, the members of the majority in
the House employ them through the Door-
keeper. But the law cruelly puts a limit
to the number of men paid by the
Door-keeper's vouchers. There is on
limit to the demands of the Demo-
cratic members. . Hence, Door-keeper Polk
broke down while attempting to- do all that
was required of him. Then the members
derided and despitefully used hiiiL It is as
if a man should curse a quart pot because
it could not hold three pints. Door-keeper
Pouc is on trial at the bar of the House.
Beally, the Democratic members are there
in his person. Is it any wonder, then, that
the House continues the case from day to
day, -without coming to a vote-t Yesterday,
after hammering away at -the matter during
the precious hours of one afternoon, the
House refused to come to any conclusion,
and precipitately adjourned with a deep
sigh of relief.
The discussion brought out. a few new

unheard-of appendages and hangers-on,
whose pay poor ]Polk had so much
trouble in procuring tihat one of his friends on
the investigating committee testily declared
that .the Committee on Accounts -was " the
meanest committee in the House." Mr;
Frtx, of Maine, told the Hoose yesterday
that he found on the roll of "disabled sol-
diers " several shining examples of maimed
patriots. One man had served three years
in a Boston Militia company. He had never
amelled gunpowder, unless on a picnic ; but
he was a good Democrat Probably he was
a friend of that other gallant and battle-
scarred hero. Gen. B. F. Butler, who, in
his turn, is Polk's friend in this his hoar
of triaL Another veteran was once an apoth-
ecary in the Navy, disabled, doubtless, by
a premature discharge of one of his own
boluses.' A third disabled soldier had had his
ankle sprained, and another had had a fever.
Still another hero,.one Flaherty, was once
mustered into the Pennsylvania Home
Onards to repel invasion. He served ninety
days, had never been wounded, but had
had a disease for several years. Fla-
herty's claim upon the generosity of his
country was that he had this "'disease"
and he swore that he had suffered with it
for several years. That is the kind of dis-
abled soldier he is. And that is the kind
of military service which the Democratic
House of Bepresentatives rewards at the
rate of $60 per month, with the privilege
of hiring a substitute at $10 per month.
But Col. Polk still keeps the door. The
debate yesterday showed that the abuses
which brought the Door-keeper to the bar
of the House have not been abolished.
True, Duffy snores no more in Mr. S. S.
CoK's chair. He was discharged, and went
off in a cloud of curiously picturesque pro-
fanity. But the disabled apothecary, the
harmless Militiaman, the unfortunate Dem-
ocrat with a- "disease for several years,"
and an infinite variety of loafers and needy
persons continue as pensioners upon the
bounty of a generous Government. This is
the result of an experiment in Democratic
door-koeping. It reminds us of the story of
a skipper of a littie schooner, whose craft
was yawing wildly iu a five-knot breeze,
knocking about as if she had no rudder or
helmsman. Hailed by the astonished mas-
ter of a passing craft with, " Who commands
that schooner?" the skipper replied, "Wal,
1 undertook her, but Tve got a thundering
big job on my hands."
■ THE aVBDEB OF LOBD LEITBI3I.
One evening in the year 1S27, two years
beforo Catholic emancipation, and when
Ireland was wound up to a pitch of excite-
ment such as she had not known sinee 1798,
four gentiemen sat around asumptuous din-
ner-table in Dublin. They were a remark-
able quartet. The host was by no means
the least so. He was Sir Philip Cravpton,
a man worthy to rank with a Pare or a
Hunter, who by sheer of force of genius had
raised himself to the highest pinnacle of
professional fame as a surgeon. The guests
were Mr. Blake, Chief Remembrancer,
the brilliant and eloquent Bichard
Lalor Sbeil, and Willlah Lamb,
Chief Secretary for Ireland, better known
as Lord Melbourne. There was a political
object in this party. Melbourne had con-
fided to Sir Philip his desire to meet some
of the leaders of Irish agitation. He
wanted to hear "the other side,"
and his biographer tells us that,
" while combating stouUy for the indispen-
sability of maintaining order at any cost, as
the first condition of legal liberty, Mel-
bourne was involuntarily moved by the
touching recitals of wrong and oppression
which daily drove the peasantry to madness,
and disdained to hide his disgust at the man-
ner in which criminal justice was adminis-
tered by exclusive juries and a partisan
Bench. He began to tmderstand for the
first time whence arose the sympathy
-with agrarian outrage which was. not
shown to mean or mercenary crime, and
after listening to details of the vengeance
wreaked on agents and underlings, he very
characteristically exclaimed, 'Why don't
they go at the big 'ans V Absenteeism an-
swered the question in part, and for the
rest the habit of going armed after night-
fall. For many men then always carried
pistols when going out hunting, for safety
when returning at dusk. Again, some had
had a hundred hair-breadth escapes— one
landlord in Tipperary earning the sobriquet
of ' The Woodcock,' because so hard to hit"
But Melbourne's question, and his way of
putting it made a great impression on Sbeil,
and when, twelve years later, his English
fellow-guest, who had meanwhile become
Prime Minister, summoned him to ask
what in the world could be done for Ire-
land, Sbeil said : " Do you remember your
question to me at Crampton's table twelve
years ago, ' How is it they don't shoot one
of the big 'uns r Tousee they have come
to that way of thinking, at last" " Yes, I
remember," said the Prime Minister. " It is
tenible ; and no one can tell me what is tQ
be done. As one of the severest Judges
said to me when in Ireland, ' If hanging
would do it it ought to have been done long
ago.' "
The immediate cause of this remarkable
conversation was the murder of the Earl of
Norbury, in the demesne of his seat, Dur-
row Abbey. Lord Norbury, the descendant
of one of Cromwell's soldiers who settied
in Ireland, was the son of an execrated man,
the Judge who sentenced Emmet ; but per-
sonally he was not only inoSeiouuve, but
excellent The crime to this hour remains
a mystery, and no other peer in Ireland has
fallen by an assassin's hand until Lord
Leitrimmet hisfateon Monday. His is a-
widely different case.
The descendant of a grantee of land at the
plantation of Ulster by James L, Lord Lei-
trim added largely to his extensile posses-
sions in various parts of the oonntry; and
had become a very wealthy man. But
as he rose in riches he fell in rapnta-
tien, and there was. not in the idiole
country a ' .man more despised by
those of his own ranlt, more loathed
by those below it His arbitrariness and
wantot kindly eonsideration were by no
BMans the worst of his offenses in the
eyes of his dependents. He farther took
ad:vantage of ^ir helplessness to make
It Bahaarrient to his oifn £rosa im-

dearaat to ttem was the -priee - iriiieh
must "be paid for a roof over their heads.
The Irish, whatever their taults, are the
most moral of people ; and many a so-called
" agrarian outrage " really has its origin in
a widely-diSeient cause.
Sudh, thai, was thehoary-Jieaded reprobate
who has just been sent to his account For
years he had been almost a social pariah,
living on his wild remote jaoperties, on
whioh he scarcely dared to move unless
guarded by two fully armed constables;
and there are thousands of men in Ireland
to-day who, altfaooigh they would oidinarDy
strain every muscle to seize an assassin,
would not go a yard out of their way to
convict the killers of the Earl of Leitrim.
It 'is now many years since an incident
revealed ttf society the pitiful mean-
ness of this miserable man. The
late Earl of Carlisle, then Vice-
roy, a man whose only fault was
an excess of kindliness, while traveling in
the West, besi>oke rooms at a certain hotel.
The landlord expressed his great regret
that he was compelled to refuse his Ex-
cellency. When pressed, he admitted that
Lord Leitrim, his landlord, had given
stringent orders to that effect/ because
the Irish Government had felt compelled
to refuse some unreasonable .request which
Lord Leitrim had made. Had the insult
been to Lord Carlisle merely as Lord Car-
lisle, no one would have been more sub-
limely indifferent to it, as, one of the
most popular men among those of
all parties and creeds, he could well
afford to be ; but as representative
of the very person of the sovereign it could
not be passed over, and a stroke of the
Viceregal pen erased his insulter's name
from all public employments. We have ad-
verted to these iK>int8 to show that while it
is, of course, greatly to be deplored that
Lynch law should be in vogue in Ireland, or
anywhere else, there has been in the pres-
ent instance a degree of provocation that
removes the case from the ordinary cate-
gory of agrarian offenses, which have hap-
pily been, of late, extremely infrequent.
Lord Leitrim has for forty years been pro-
voking vengeance. He has had ample
warning, and has only met his death by
persisting in rtmning in the very teeth of
danger. •
THE TROUBLES OF A BOTAL DVKE.
The announcement that the Duke of Ed-
inburgh is about to be relieved from duty
with the Mediterranean fleet and re-
called to England will be received
with much satisfaction by his numerous
friends in the various newspaper offices of
this country. Hitherto his situation has
been a difficult and painful one, and it is to
be earnestiy hoped that the order for his re-
call will at least partially restore to him
that peace of mind which he has not known
for many months. When the Duke of Ed-
inburgh determined to marry a Bussian
Princess his family were by no means
pleased. They did not, however, venture
to make any decided opposition to the
match, lest the Dake, who is an amateur
violinist, should become melancholy, and
should relieve his mind by constanUy play-
ing the violin in the precincts of the palace.
Mr. Disraeli, with his usual accuteness, re-
minded the Queen that the surest way to
put an end to -riolin practice iu the palace
would be to consent to the Duke's marriage.
"You see, Ma'am," he remarked, '"if the
Princess is a Tartar, either she -will not let
him look at a violin in her presence, or else
she will make things so lively for him that
he will insist upon being sent to sea." This
counsel was so obviously sotmd that the
Queen gave her consent to -the marriage,
and contented herself with requesting the
Duke to take notice that if he should get
into trouble by his marriage he would have
nobody but himself to blame.
In due time the marriage was celebrated,
and the young people took up their resi-
dence in the Tower — the two-pair back
rooms, -with the adjoining hall-bedroom,
being assigned to them by the Queen, who
occupied the front rooms. The Bussian
Princess -was handsome, but it soon ap-
peared that her temper was not all that
could be desired. She was not -violent and
demonstrative, but she was inflexibly de-
termined to have her own way, and when
things did not please her she would put on
a cold, calm air of utter contempt for every-
thing English, which was in the highest de-
gree exasperating to the royal family. She
declined to have anything to do with her
husband's sisters, on the ground that an
Emperor's daughter could not be expected
to associate -with the daughters of a mere
Queen, and she coolly gave the Duke's
'Suable violin to a tramp, and subsequent-
ly informed her husband that she never al-
lowed musical instruments in her house.
At first the Duke attempted to exercise
marital authority over his -wife, but he soon
found that unconditional surrender was the
price of peace. Thenceforth he was- ruled
as despotically as a Bussian mm^ik. He
was scarcely allowed to speak to his mother
and sisters in the presence of the Duchess,
and that high-spirited woman having, once
caught him in the act of walking on the
front piazza with the Princess Alexandra,
made him instantly come in the house, and
warned him that if he ever spoke to that
Danish person again she would complain to
her father and demand a legal sepasation.
The Duke obtained no sympathy from his
mother. "I told you," that excellent
woman was accustomed to remark, " I told
you she would make it 'ot for you, but yoti
would numry your Bussian Princesses." So
miserable did the unhappy Alfbbo become
that he finally asked the Queen to send him
to sea on a three years' cruise.
It so happened tliat the Duke was ap-
pointed to a ship forming part of the Med-
iterranean Squadron. This was all very
nice until the present war-cloud made its
appearanse. No sooner, however, was there
a prospect of war between England and
Bussia than the unfortunate Duke -was
made to perceive more clearly than ever
his enormoios mistake in martying the
daughter of the Czar. He began to receive
daify letters from his relatives that utterly
destroyed his peace of mind. His wife
would write that he must come home direct-
ly, and that if he ventured to fire so mush
as a pistol at his father-in-law's troops he
would be an unnatural monster, whom it
would be mockeitr to call a son-in-law. The
Czar would write to his " dear son," ex-
pressing his hope that he would preve^
the QoeeB's Oovwniae^ Aim going to war,
>OMiike to laiil^ tkath* «Diild «ver hs
ftiltjnif }oiniBg in a war against hiawifs'a
father and brothers. On the other hand,
the Queen never let a day pass without in-j
fonpiag the Dake, either by letter or posta
card, that he owed his first duty to hiseonn-
trr, and that she had such confidence in his
loyait^- that she- sboaM send him to the
fnint . at the first outbreak of hostilities.
Not odntent with thus harrowing op her
son's feelings, she frequently mentioned on
her postal cards the alleged delinquencies
, of the Dnehess, and thus informed the Post-
OMtccs wiS^e letter-carriers that " she "—
meaning Ae Duchess of Edinburgh— "is
going on worse than ever, and that
her language to the dear girls is simply
h'awful, though, thank goodness, she al-
ways speaks thatnastj Enssian, which no-
body can understand it" Conscious not
only of his embarrassing situation, but that
everybody waf peifectiy aware of it, the
Duke became so nervous that he was on the
point :of being invalided when his brother,
the Prince of Wales, took pity on him and
obtained his recall.
Thus the Duke is relie-ved from the pros-
pect of taking part in an attack on hisfather-
in-la-tr's dominions. His path, however, is
by no means stre-wn -with roses. When he
returns to the Tower he will find himself
over head and ears in domestic hot water.
As an English Prince married to a Bussian
Princess, he must expect to be the target
of the opposing patriotism of his wife and
of his mother, and unless he boldly sends his
wife back to her father, and emigrates to
the colonies, he will soon -wish that he wer%
dead. His melancholy situation should
warn us against the danger of manying
Bussian Princesses, and lead us to refiect
that the gorgeous two-pair bsA rooms of
a royal palace may inclose as much domes-
tie misery as could be crowded into a tene-
ment-house bedroom.

In the aCtentoon tbe Hoase went into ConmUtec
of the Wholes the bill to seen re a better adminls-
tiation of local govemment for the City of Kew
York, introdneed br L L Hayes, and known as the
" Finance biH," wUeb passed both Honses last year,
and was vvtoed by the Governor. It Is noderstood
that it will pass this year with the assent of the
Tammany Democrats, it having been modified some-
what to meet their views. I>r. Hayes moved to
amend by requiring a two-thirds Instead of fonr-flfths
vote of the Commoo Council tamake valtd a resoln-
tion iuToIving any liability- or ezpendltare. He
briefly expired the object of the hill,
which ivas mainly to secaxe uniformity of
action in the mstter of contracting indebted-
ness and the en>euditnr« of pablic - moneys.
He said the bill had the aoprovsl of the City aathor
itles of New-York. Mr. Fish said he would ratbei
see the bill killed outright than to see this amend-
ment ineorporaced in it. If adopted, the bill would
not be in the interests of ecoDomy. but would open
tlie flood-gates for extravagance snd wmstefulness.
Mr. Dalyaaid the geutlemau from Putnam (Mr.
Fish] had stolen bis thnnder. He did not think
tfaii amendment in the interests of eooDomj
and the tax -payers. It proposed to break
down the only safeguard the people bad.
Mr. AJvord ' argued that a two-thirds vote w«» suffi-
cient, there being other concurrent checks and
guards. The amendment was adopted by a vote of
57 to 16. Dr. H.iyes then moved an amendment
which, in eftect changed tbe payment of the claims
of the Charities and Correcaon Department from
the ta4| levy to the siulcinc fund. Mr.
Brooks a^d that this proposiTion covered- so
much ground, and was so very important
and also In view of the fact that the authorities had
not asked for it, he would suggest that tbe genue*
man withdraw the motion. Dr. Hayes witfadaew tbe
amendment and moved another, reatiiiing the Coo-
trdUer to pabllsh annually a financial statement la
the City Bteord. Mr. Brooks suggested that it
should be published in pamphlet form also. Mr.
Hayes accepted the stuEnation, and the amend-
ment was adopted. Ur. Hayes then moved
a new section providing tbst all balanoet
of appropriations made in and prior to 187^ ahaU
lapse except such amounts as shall be required to
pay proper elaima. Adopted. Mr. Alvord moved an
additional section, providing that the Board of Esti-
mate and Apportionaient shall appoirt three Com-
missioneis to revise and eo^Qfy all laws reiating tc
the City of New- York, the Commissioners to report tc
the next Legislature, and to be paid such sum as the
Board of Estimate and Apportionment may allow in
the manner other expenses of the City are paid.
Mr. Fiah moved to give the appointment to the
Mayor as being altogether more appropriate. Mr.
Alvord insisted that the board namM waa the most
appropriate. The Mayor was a member of the
board, and there were three other good men with
him. Mr. Daly moved as an amendment that the
Mayor be directed to requeat the Corporation Coun-
sel to appoint these Commissioners. Without taking
any action on the question the committee rose and
reported progress.
Mr. Charles H. Duell was sworn in as a member of
the :^use from the Thirteenth New- York Assemblf

tion of tlw system, particularly to see whether it baa
been fonnd necessary to amend the original law, of
which his biD is a copy ; and. it so, wliat the amend-
ments are.
The Committee on Cities held an executive session

«aa quite a large attendance, and much intereat
vasmanUktod. TwA witneises were examined,
Tlx., Pottmaater Jamea and NaTal Officer Cor-
aaSL
Mr. Jama*, being examined by Hon. Matthew
Hale, oonnaal for th« correapondenti, stated
that he had no knowledge of any of the facta
eostained in the puBcisph which was
the (Object of InTeatication, farther than
what he saw in the newspapers;
that he had ne knowledge Of any
arrangements affeeting the trial of the latter,
or affeeting legislation, nor had he any conver-
sation with Mr. Cornell, or with any Senator,
npon the snbjaot <^ the trial, or of legislation
thia Winter.
Mr. Alonzo B. Cornell was the next witness.
Ha made a general denial of haring any
knowledge of any bargain between Mr.
Kelly or Mr. Smyth, or other persons,
to tecnre the aeqnlttal of the latter,
or affeeting legislation this Winter. He had no
cenTeraation with any Democratic Senator
Vpon the subject, and with only one Bepnotiean
Senator— Mr. BockweU. He had seen Mr.
Smyth onee during the pending of the
trial ; was in New-Tork ; the visit
and liie conversation were quite incidental ; it
bad no reference to the possible votes of the
l^ammaoy Senators nor as to aaything he [the
Witness] was expected to do in regard to the
triaL Both Mr. Jamea and Mr. Cornell testifleif
In answer to questions by Mr. Fish
that they had no eommnnication with
him npon theSIeetiTS Controller bill or the
Smyth triaL
The committee reassembled at 8 o'clock.
The feeling in the matter had become so gr> at
that the Assembly Chamber was filled with a
crowd of deefdy interested spectators, who,
daring the examination of the wit-
nesses, displayed their excitement by applause
and other manifestations, so that the Chairman
of the committee bad to insist on order being
kept. A large number of witnesses were ex-
amined, and Senators Hogan and Eeelesine at
their own request Before the examination,
eommencedMr. Haleaaked if Mr. Fish admitted
that the committee met and the bill was re-
ported the same morning. Mr. Fish admitted
these facts.
David La. Biiker, member of the Assembly for
the Nineteenth District of Kew-York, was
sworn, and testifted : Had an interview with
two Senators the night before the vote on the
Smyth case ; it was at Boom Xo. 8, Congress
HaU, and took place after 12 o'clock ; the Sen-
ators Were Masan. Hogan and Eeelesine ; I had
heard it rumored during the day that
some of the Democratic Senators were
going to vote for the acquittal of Smsrth ; I
hardL^ believed it ; they said they were going
to sustain the Governor; it must have been
about 1 o'clock Wednesday mominjr ; I wits a
little uncertain whether' they were joking or
not ; I told reportera that morning that two of
the Demoeratie Senators would not vote to
a«|uit.
£dW8rd Cnrran, member of Assembly from
AlbwDv, was sworiL Had a conversation with
Mr. Viah before the vote on the Smyth ease, but
did not think he ought to be compelled to relate
it. Mr. Fish said that he did not object to the
witness telUng all that was said. The witness
said : I said Smyth ought to be removed ; Mr.
Fish said he thought he ought not to be and that
he would not be removed.
Mr. Hale — Did he say anything in regard to
money to be naed in affecting the next elec-
tion t
Witness— I don't know as that has anything
to do with this case.
The Chairman sustained the objection, hut
after some conversation the wtness said Mr.
Fish told him Republicans would have the new
Xieglslature ; th^t Senator Pierce and others
would put up money enough to carry the Le-
gislature ao as to elect Conkling United States
Senator.
Mr. Fish asked the witness if he was positive
that he [Mr. Fish] mentioned any Senator as a
person who would put up money.
Witness— You nid Mr. Pierce.
Mr. f^sh — Didn't yon know I was jokingt
Witness — ^No : 1 know I was not joking.
Controller John Kefly, of New- York, affirmed
•nd testified : I have had no eommnnication,
. directly or indirectly, with the Tammany Sena-
tors as to how they should vote on the Smyth
case ; I have called the attention of Bepublicau
membeiB of the Legislature to measures at
fecting the interests of New-Tork, but
never asked them to vote for them :
never knew how Senators would vote on the
Smyth trial ; I told Senator Eeelesine that if 1
was in his place 1 would sit there, hear the tes-
timony, and discharge my duty to the best of
my Jtidgment ; I knew Edward Kearney ; never
leanied though him what would be the result of
the Smyth trial ; Fish, or an^ of his friends,
never had any conversation with me relative to
meaaures relating to New-York ; do not know
John F. Smyth; never saw him to my knowl-
To Mr. Pish— My communications with you
. concerning measures relating to New-York
were always in writing ; none of those commu-
nieatiOBs had reference to the Controller bill.
John F. Smyth affirmed : During the trial I
had no eommnnication with the Tammany Sen-
ators ; nor, to my knowledse, did my friends ;
I had no knowledge the iJght be-
fore how it would result; do not know,
tnd have not heard, of any arrangement
•oneemlng that vote. To Mr. Fish the witness
' laid he had no conversation with him concern-
ing the trial, the vote, or the Controller bill.
He said he had never heard of the bill till to-
night. _
Mr. AugustinSnow, the correspondent of Thb
Tntzs, alarmed — ^I wrote the letter referred to
in Mr. Fish's resolution ; there was a rumor
current for a week that a bargain had been
made by which the Tammany Senators were to
vote for the acanittal of Smyth, and when
the Controller bill was reported and then called
back. I became convinced that the report of a
hargain wa tmo. I was not moved by malice
or enmity to Mr. Pish: never had
any toatrniBtioiia whatever how to write
or do my work from the office;
. I diink I most have spent an honr and a half
looking up the faeU to verify the statements
made; 1 foimd that the committee had met In
the morning early ; that the bill had been re-
ported, and that it had then been re-
committed; I saw Mr. Pish come hast-
ily Into the Senate after the vote
bad been given on Smyth, and coming np to
Senator Pomeroy, congrmtnlate him on the bril-
liant speech ha had made ; I waa standing only
a few feet away at the time. The witness said
that previous to his writing the para-
nmnh he had never even written so
^Ddi as Mr. Fish's name but once, and
n.«> waa simply mentioning him, with others,
sa being at a oazemony in WaahinBton. 'The
-IliiMi was eros»«xaailned at eonsideiable
taglh by Mr. George Bliss, but nothing new
na didiad. Mr. Kias endeavored to show that

OPEBA AT BOOTH'S.
"Alda" was sung at Booth's Theatre, last
evening; In presence of s very large audience. The
lepresentation. as a whole, was decidedly ejlee.
tive. It differed materially from the previous
perfonnanees of the same opera, for Ume*
Marie BAze posonatad A\da. sod Mr. Oratliodsnira.
Mme. BAie't .lido, while the character Is tcaresly
as well suited to the pnma donna as the other rAlM
•he has sastained, is nevertheleis s symmetrieal and
dnmatle portrayal. The great exeellsnee of this
srtist's work lies &> the tact that none of its
details are alighted in an endeavor to make her
efforts memorable by "points," and that, even in
the most tonelnl numbers of an opera, ionethin(
more than vocal charm is thrown into her
delivery of text aad tones. When this very
marked characteristic nt Mne. Btie'i talent
Is kept in mind, it will be nndsrstood that bar per-
formance yesterday was fnll of >ignlfleanee as well
as purely lyric merit. Her scenes with Amiuria
were exceedingly good, and the whole oC the third
act, which was toUowed by an eathntlaitle i*eall,was
eapitslly rendered, the Impassioned duet with the
tenor eliciting, of course, hearty spplanss. Mr.
Orafs RadaiMt waa eontiderably above mediocrity,
but the tenor's voice is so nasal that real enjoyment
of hia labors— and conaelentlons and weU.dlreeted
labors they certainly are— will only be aeeared in
due lesaon and through an aeqnlied taste. Mlas
Cary'a Atniuria is an effort which haa
long had favorable countenance from the public, and
Mr. Verdl'i ^Imoiuum, on the occasion we allade to,,
waa uncommonly, not to'tay slannlngly, aatisf aetory.
Heaars. Conly and Qottaebatk, we need but add. ware
qnite equal to their reapeetive tasks, and the or-
chestra, under Mr. Behreos, left nothing to he
wished for in the matter of precision. "Marta" is

or ONE OF THE SUPPOSED THIEVES.
Injector Murray and Boundsman Meakin
yesterday arrested Angnstns Baymond, alias Arthur
U Barry, an alleged bond robber aad accoapliee
of Cbarlev Adams, sllsa Langdon W. Moore,
and Chsrlaa Brigga, alias "Leary the Kid,"
for tne robbery of a tnmk containing
gS.OOO worth of jewelry, belonging to Ailing
Brothers ft Co., or Worcester, MssS., and Ko. 170
Broadway, this City, on the 11th of laat May, the
partlenUrsof which were pnbllshed than in Tax
Tms. The prisoner belongs to the well-known
"Canada Hack'a Gang," and the Inspector haa
been looking for him for aome time. On the
11th of Uat May Mr. William B. Kerr,
traveling aaleaman for Ailing Brothers A Co.,
jewelry manufaeturera of Worcester, Haas.,
aUrted (or KewYork. He took hIa trask, contain-
ing $9,000 worth of aamplea, to the Worcestor
Depot and bad it cheeked to New- York. He had
been watched and followed. Before the train
atarted. and while Mr. Kerr waa abeent a
sentlemen want into the aame depot and get Mr.
Samuel Knowlton. the depot sgent, to cheek his
valise to New- York. Soon afterward thIa ssme
man retomed to Mr. KnOwtton and requested
the privilege of getting some thlnga oat of his
valise. He produced hla check, and waa accord-
ed the priTileije he aaked. He took hia vallae,
and with a eareleaa air placed It on Mr. Kerr'a trunk.
While apparently engseed in getting the things out
of the vallae, he exchanged the check-atrap on hia
vallae to Mr. Kerr'a trunk, and pnt Kerr'a eheck-
atrsp on hia valise, thna aeearing a "dead anre"
'call on the trunk. Having done thla, he eloaed
the Tsliae and left. When the train arrived In
thia City Kerr aeenred hotel quarters, and thon
went after bis trunk. When he presented hla check
he waa given the saehel that hsd the corresponding
cheek. The stranger. In the meantime, had praaented
a cheek for the trunk, got it, and bad it removed.
■When Kerr discovered the robbery he reported the
fact at Police Hesd^iaiirters, and Inspector Mnirar
set to work on the matter. He tracked the trunk
from the depot to the Putnam Houae, on the comer
of FonrthaTenue and Twenty-alxth-atreet, and
learned that Joseph EenvlUe; of No. 741
Second-avenue, was the haekmSn who bronsht
it there. The Inspector anbaeqnently tracked
the trunk from the Putnam Houae to Balti-
more and, learned that Rudolph Schmidt atanding
on UadlaoD-aqoare, had carried it from the hotel to
the depot. Mr. Kerr went to Baltimore and (ennd
hla trunk, with the aid of the Police, In the depot
there, but alao foond that It bad been rilM of Ita
contenta Justice Murray found gronsda to
anapect that Briesa, Elizabeth Hill, and Adama,
who were lIvlacatNo. 123 EaatTwenty-nlnthstreet
were implicated in the trnnk robbery, and aceord-
Ingly, on ^e 23d of October he arrested them, find-
ing aome of the stolen jewelry on Miss Hlll'speraon.
The prlaonera were taken before JostleeSnuth, at the
Eaaex Market Police Court. Misa HUl waa dlaefaamd,
Adama waa not proved guilty of the charge, but be-
ing suspected of complicity in the robbery of $8,000
of ITnlted^tatas bonds from Charles Osrev, wig-
maker, of No. 493 Wsahlngton-atreet Boston, on
the 16th of April, 1877, waa aent there for trial,
but managed to get off. Briggswaa held, and on
Nov. 21 waa convicted at General Seaalona, before
Judge Sutherland, of erand larcenr, and waa a«n-
tenced to five yeara at Sing Sing, and la now aervlng
hia term.
Inspector Murray believes that he can prove that
Barmond waa an accomplice of Brigga In the trunk
robbery, either having been the one who changed the
cheeks or who rifled the trunk. At Brigia' trial
Knowlton identifled him positively as the
man who hsd got the vallae cheeked. Ben-
vQle identifed him aa the man who had
hirad him to haul the trunk from the Orsnd Central
Depot to the Putnam House, but Schmidt could not
Identify Briggs aa the man who hadhbedhim to
luml it from the Putnam House to the Adams lix-
preaa Company to be ahlpped to Baltimore. Mr.
George F. Baker, of the Putnam Houae, -awore
that Bifaga waa tbe man who had the trunk at the
hotel. Gspector Murray iwtsrday attemooe took
Baymond to the Kiaex Market Police Coort, and had
him remanded until to-day.' The interested parties
have been tel^japhed to, and application has been
made to Gov. Bobinaon for a requlaltlon to take the
prisoner to Maaaaebnaetta, It neeetasry.

pendent company In Boston. Commenting on this,
Mr. Prye said :
" Holt to-day, is In the employ of tbe Democratic
Party of thla Houae, notwith atanding that he com-,
mltted. In spirit at any rate, perjury; and every
mut of that committee and every man In
this House knows thst In spirit he committed
perjury. When he was put npon that
roll be either daoaived the members from
Connecticut and New-Hampahlrs, or alee he deceived
Mt. Polk, and thnagot himself pat on theaoldlera'roU.

Mr. Prye — Oh, no, he waa not In the Mexican
war; too old for that They got one Merican aol-
dler. They want over the rolla of every
war thla country ever had to get diaabled
aoldiera. Thar took tba BevolutlonaryroU, bnt could
not find 'a man who waa able to travel to Waahlng-
ton. They got the roll of 1812. and examined that,'
and they hit a man who waa la that war. The v took
the roll of the Mexieau War, and hit a man In taat
roll, and yet they were not happy, and yet the roll
waa not full, and yet the hunt continued.
Mr. Frye continued hla roll-call of Democratic
crippled aoldiera, quoting from the teatlmony taken
by the committee : "'Hermon J. Scheelllca, weie
yon in ang way crippled t' 'No, not by

by the UoderatoT, the letter-miuive was rekd, and*
then the letter of reslaAation of the Pastor. Dr. GUI-
aunit of the Tmsteee' Committee, then made a state-
ment on behalf of the efanxch. He said tbe resif;-
nation of the Pastor was accepted in view of tbe
linanelal condition of the church. The Tnutees^had
fonnd that they would reqnire 92,500 for expenses,
Indndrns the salazy of the Pastor— Sl.'HX)—
dorlnji uie present rear, and after eolleeting
all tbe pledges they could, they found
It impostiole to raise more than 91*750.
There was an Incumbrance of 93,000 ou the church
property, and they had a note at the bank calliue for
mtereat annually amounting to 9300. The premi-
ums for Insurance amoxmted to 9150. and the coal
and gas bill would be 9100. There were also minor
items which would bring the necessary expenses of
the church up to 9^50, outside of the P;.stor*s sal-
lie \
Pastor stated that he had received a set of
very eomplimentarr resolntionit, which were passed
by the Board of Trustees on Tuesday evehf&g, in
which he was asked to recall his resleuation and re-
main at a salary of .91.200, which tbey guaranteed
to pari and which they promised to make every
effint to increase. He thought, however, that it was
a sudden step for the Trustees to take
after hit resignation had been praetically
" forced upon him," and he did not see how he could
withdraw It. He thought that while there were
many good people in the church who were doing all
in^efrpowertokeep theflDADces of the church in
a proper condition, there were many others who
nught make ereater saeriilees if they tried.
The conndl retired to deliberate, and subeeqoently
announced that in view of tbe painfully embarrB*sed
coadltfon of the ehnrch they approved of the resigna-
tion of Its Pastor, and recommended that the church
•hoald adopt new methodsof meetiug its obligations.
Dr. Taylor suggested that when tbe church should
again decide to call another Pastor it should be sure
of ita ability to meet iU oblintlons to hfm. He said
he made the suggestion with kindness and did not
deaSreto dictate arronntly.
IHstxiet Attorney Downing, who is a member of
the oongregation. subsequently stated to the reporter
that while Rev. SCr. Reed was a good man anda sin-
cere Christimn, he was in poor health, and had not
snfSelent enency to take chane of the church. A
yonncer man. he thought, would be preferred by the
majority of the congregation.
Other members statM that there were no truth in
the rumored eonsolldatton of the Congregatlottal and
Befonned Dutch Cburehes.

liOMO Bbamch, April 3.— Tite ezaioaliution
into ti^e charges pireferred againat PoUee Juatlee
Pitcher was resnmed yestarday before the Long
Branch Commisaionexa. Tbe aoensed having deliv-
ered np hla books. OflHeer John Lane testifled that
JnetSee PStehar took no atepa to arrest parties who
had been dBajgcdwtth keeping diaordetlr houses.
Mr. John Hoey, the General Manager of Adams
Ezpren Oompany, who waa Instrumental in bringing
theae charges ag^nst Joatlce I^tcher, waa next
called, and testified that Pitcher refused to give him
a list of witnesses against the Uquor-dealers, al-
though Pitcher promised to do so.
Mr. Hoey's eonnad Berk testifted that Officers
Lane and West had told him that Jnattee Flteher
waa holdiog back the Ust of witnesses from him as
Prosecutor of the State; was positive that Justice
Pitcher held from the State evidence 'and namea of
witnesses in the Kavanagh incendiary caae. OfBeer
Theodore Weat was called, and testified that he was
present m Jnstiee Pitcher's court when parties came
to make compl^nts against New*York banco men ;
the eomplalnanta were informed by Justice Pitcher
that the banco men could not be punished, and that
if they [the complainants] had them arrested^ they
would have to give heavy security to insure their
presence as witnesses; this deterred the eomplaln-
anta, and they- refused to make the charge.
On the charge that Pitcher visited Kavanagh, the
allied ftre-bng, and imparted to him Information
that was in the hands of the prosecution. Gecwge W.
Brown, the Sheriff ot Monmouth County, was called,
and testified tliat Justice Pitcher had visited Kava-
nagh in jaii. Prosecutor Lannice stated on oath
that Pitcher, In the preaenee of one Dlsbrow and
others, scouted the Idea that Kavanagh was guilty
of firing Commissioner Chamberlaina bams ; ttiat it
waa a put up job on Kavanagh. and that Mr. Hoey
and Mr. Chamberiun were prosecuting Kavanagh
to drive him out of Long Branch. Mr. Xjasnlng also
stated that at the time Kavanagh was brought be-
fore Judge Scodder on an application for ball, an-
other warrant was Issued by Justice Pitcher to arrest
Kavanagh In case bail was fixed ; that Pitcher pur-
posely absented himself, keeping the warrant and
ether important papers from the prosecution.
C. H. Potter, of Brooklyn, testified that Pitcher
had refused to entertain a complaint made by him
against a disorderly house. John Matthews, a de-
fendant in a larceny ease, testified that he gave
Pitcher 9100 to "ball him," and that he had not
received the money back. Mr. Hoey next gave testi-
mony In support of the charge that the accused pro-
tected gamblers. He said: "I went to the magis-
trate for co-operation in the matter, and be seemed
willing to assist me ; I found, however, that he was
acting In collusion with the incendiaries ; I found
that he was shielding houses of ill-fame ; I found oat
that Long Branch's magistrate was a boon companion
of banco-players and gamblers : that ho connived
with them, and protected them from prosecution."
Continuing. Mr. Hoey said: "lam not only satis-
fled that Pitcher is guilty of each and all of these
charges, bnt I have evidence that would send bim to
State Prison." Mr. Hoey supported his charges-by
reading correspondence which took place between
himself and Pitcher.
Mr. Hoey made way for. Justice liSne, who testi-
fied that Pitcher had expressed to him bis belief In
Kavanngh's Innocence. Mary McGragh testified
that Justice Pitcher had made improper proposals to
her.
Tbe case for the prosecution having closed, Mr.
Nevlns opened for the defence and said he should
confine himself to the charge* made by Mr. Hoey.
The defendant was called and testified in reference to
the 9100 received from Matthews. He said
that be bad returned the money to Mat-
thews* lawyer, who had applied to him
for it. He denied having shown Mr. Hoey's
affidavits to any one before the warrants were issued.
He admitted having seen Kavanash in jail, when he
told him that an e:camlDation would have Of en use-
less In his [Kavanagh's] case, as he [the Jiwtleel w uld
have held him, as the case was strong against him.
He told a man named Hamilton not to go bail for
Kavanngh, and preTented other persouR from eoine
ball for him. In tbe banco case an EniEliBbman bad
made a complaint, and npon hearing that he would
have to eive bail for his appearance in conrt with-
drew the charge. Other witnesses were examined,
but nothing of an important character was elicited.
The State's Attorney, in closing for the State, sim-
ply referred Pitcher's oCKcial records to the attention
of the commissioo.
Mr. Nevins then snmmed up for the defense. He
claimed that there was no case against his clieut. If
Pitcher, he said, was guilty of permitting Hall, the
alleged incendiary, to escape justice. Prose-
cutor Lanning. who was present dnrlne
the exaxhinatlon, was equally guilty. There
was no ev dence to show that Pitcher
informed Ksvanagh of any testimony in the hands of
the prosecution. In reference to the banco men,
counsel claimed there was no evidenca that Pritcher
was guilty of conniving with and protecting .thom.
Mr. Hoey had only sworn to what he hsid heard
others say. Mr. Kevins closetl with an appeal tn the
Commissioners askinE them to acqtiit the accused.
Mr. Allen for the nrosscution claimed that the evi-
dence was sufficient to justify conviction.
The board then went into executive session, and at
9: 30 o'clock Inst night returned to court with the
following verdict :
Whertag, In the judirment of this board, there
has been KufQcient evidence shown in tbe charges
made against Edward I. Pitcher. Police Justice, to
justify bla removal from office, therefore, be it
hetolved^ That the said Edward I. Pitcher be and
he is hereby removed from the office of Police Jus-
tice, and that the District Clerk be directed to serve
upnn the said Edward I. Pitcher a certified copy of
this resolution.
The charges on which Pitcher was found gtillty
are the Hall fire case, the Landry case, and the
Matthews case^

lition of exlstinz unnecessary offices and official em-
ployes, the fnnoing of the City debt, and the pay-
ment of not more than 5 per cent. Interest thereon,
the repeal of tbe law creating the Board of Appor-
tionment, and in favor of a new City chnrter, with a
resumption of local legislative power, and
the hnmediato passage by the LegisUtore of
the concurrent resolution now before It, nam-
ing 13 of our fellow-cltlzens to report to
them to reduce salaries and abolish sine-
cures—are requested to assemble at the Cooper
Institute, on Wednesday, the 10th day of April.
1878, at 8 o'dock P. M., to memorialize the Legis-
lature in favor of auch objects of the meeting, and

ism.
Mr. Tfanothy Shea, of the Ninth District, offered
a resolution recommending the Legislature to paas a
bill making the office of Controller eleetlve.
Mr. Jamea O'Brien expreaaed the opinion that it
was nnnece<sary that the resolution should be adopted
at that meeting. The proper plaee to eonddei it was
at the maas-meeting. He did not believe it waa
neceasary for the aucceaa of the o|q>odtion to
deofmnee John Kdly aa waa tbe cus-
tom generally InA nti-Tammany meetings.
John KeUy*s power was dne to the fact that he hdd
the keys of the ** dnngeon ** or '* ooal-cellar " of Tam-
many Hall, where Ita secret poHticail aodMymet.
John Kelly waa not worth talking about; he and hla
foUowera wonld find themaelvea tsdnga titdal wave
before long that would swamp them. What the City
Democracy mmted to do at present, the
Q»eaker said, waa to go on perfecting
an organisation in the varioua Aaaembly Aatrieta of
the CUty. As for hlmaelf, he had been, as everybody
meaent should kncn^, battling uainst Tammany
Han and the one-manpower forlO years, and had
been tm all oeeaalona a eonsistant foec^ that Mrty.
WUliam W. MDea, of the Twenty-fonrth Ward,

THE MEDICO-LEGAL SOCIETY,
DISCUSSING THE AB0SES IN INSANE ASYLUMS
— DR. PACKARD ON THE BCIEKTIFIO EX-
ECUTION OP THE DEATH PENALTY.
At the meeting of the Medico-Legal Society
last evening In the parlors of the Academy of Medi-
cine, two topics of puhlic Interest were discussed—
the first a report on the mismanagement of Insane
asylums, signed by Prof. William A. Hammond
and Jacob S. Miller ; the other a paper on the beat
method of administering the death penalty, read by
Dr. A. R. Packard, of Philadelphia. The report on
insane asylums recited that the committee had found
abundant reasons for believing that the inmates of
insane asyltims are treated in a manner disgraceful
to civilization, cruel and barbarous, and not
in accord with the present advanced state of medical
science. Reference was made in the report to the
allegations of cruelty, peculation, and mismanage-
ment at the Utiea Asylum wliich have recently b^n
pref'sed by prominent medical periodicals. The com-
mittee concluded by recommending t lat a committee
of six members of the society, three lezal and three
medical, be aopolnted to take Into consideration the
whole subject of the treatment of tbe Insane Is our
lunatic asrlums, and to report what further means
are necessary to secure tbe abolition of certain
methods of restraint now practiced. The resolution
was passed unanlmoudy.
Dr. Packard then re-.d an exhaustive paper on
methods of executing the death penalty, and com-
menced with an historical survey of tbe subject, ex-
preftatng his opinion In favor of the petialty m some
form, bat describing the rresent mode as barbarous.
sensational, and revolting, and inveighing with
special severity against the newspapers for their
frequent publication of the repulsive details of stK^
events. He argued that, as between the guillotine
and the gallows, the former had greatly the
advantage, but pronounced both sensational and
unscientific The ancient death by hemlock, (our
modern extract of conlnm.) producing death by
spinal paralysis, he would not discuss ; nor would he
take the time of tbe society by brinffinz forward and
critically examining the various modes that had been
proposed of late years, some of them more striking
and original than practicable. Tbe object was to find
a mode at once sure, unproductive of strategies, and
non-sensational in all its sspecta; and this object
was, he thought, accomplished by employing carbonic
oxide, (carbonic acid ess.) a most raold narcotic
poison. The requirements for the execution of the
penalty were simplythat one cell In the prison should
be fitted up especially for the purpose, by making
it air-tight, which was easily aceompliahed. A door
of plate-glass, protected within by an Iron lattice-
work, would enable the proper officers of the law to
observe the process and ascertain when it was fin-
ished- The criminal having been placed In this cell.
a sufficient amount of carbonic oxide, generated In
any practicable way, to render the air Irresplrable,
could be pumped In. Of 43 dogs treated in this man-
ner at the PhUadelphia dog pound, the whole number
died within three mlnntes, and he had seen one,
under experimental <*onditions, die without a strug-
gle iu 105 seconds. There was nothing new. he was
aware, in the method he hod proposed, but the verr
fact that It was experimentally established waa, when
rightly viewed, a recommendation rather tiian the
contrary.
At the instance of Dr. J. C. Peters a committee
was appointed te consider the subject and report
their condusiona to tbe society.

A reporter of Thx Tncxs, the same who attended
and reported the procecdintn of the Manlcipal Socie-
ty, referred to In the above correspondenoe, called at
Mr. Spanldlng's office yesterday In regard to the mat.
ter, and asked that gentleman to specify In what
respects he claimed the resort In Ths Tnos was
erroneons or " IneoKieeu" Mr. Spanlding said :
"Well, I was not speaking of this Surrogate at all
when I mentioned those matters, bnt of other ad-
ministrations in that olBee, and it was the lawyers
that I Intended to speak at as 'dividing* — their ' di-
viding with each other,* I have never had any
business In that otBce as an Executor,
or in any other way, since Mr. Calvin
went Into it. I was somewhat excited. I felt warm
on the snbject at the time I was speaking of it, be.
cause I have seen so much of the doings of the law-
yers In that court. I have known a man get $1,500
there for service* that didn't ooeupy only a few min-
ntesofthne; itwasgiven to him as an 'allowance'
for sarvlees, out ot the estate. It was a ' Orats,' ot
eooise, that got it — one ot those men who are pets
ot the eonrt, like Barnard nsed to have, and this
other Judge, what's his name! — Cardozo — yes, that's
the name, Cardozo."
The reporter suggested that the report did not, as
Mr. Spanlding seemed to express his understanding
of it, say that It was this present Surrogate, or any
partleular Surrogate, bnt merely Surrontes In gen-
eral— that the words nsed and the words reported
were, " lawyers divide with the Surrogate, " &&
Ur. Spanlding replied that he did not Icnow In regard
to that, bnt the report was shown to him on Tuesday
morning; and all there was to be said ot it was that
be didn't mean to refer to the present Surrogate.
Tlw reporter next asked Mr. Spauldlng whether he
denied Tising the words above quoted, and which Mr.
Calvin deemed oifensiva, and stated that In the event
of the publication ot the two letters above, both of
which were shown to Mr. Spanlding, the reporter's
statement wonld>be appended to it ; also, that the
reporter's notes snowed very. distinctly that he had
nsed those exact words, and that the reporter's recol-
lection was. if possible, sttn more distinct on the
subject, his attention being fixed to the words by
reaaon ot the boldness of the assertion conveyed by
them.
Mr. Spanlding said in reply : " As 1 say, I felt
quite warm on the subject, and I did not mean to
say that the lawyers divided with the Surrogate.
I don't say that I did not say that, but it I did say it,
what follows it was intended to eorrect it — the words
' with each other.' I may have said It. It is a sub-
ject that I know a good deal about, this passing of
estates through the Surrogate's Court, and it warms
me when 1 come to speak ot It; I have had the law-
yers offer me, and actually allow me. 91,500
over and above my proper fees as Executor,
for services which were put down a* 'extra ser-
vices,' and which I had not performed. Of course, I
did not take it. They make extra services out ot al-
most everything tbat is done there. I got Mr. Cal-
vin's note yesterday, and I sent him a reply written
in a great horrr. and perhaps if I had thought of It I
should have wordedltallttle differently. There [point-
ing to a copy ot the letter] 1 say in it that ' I had not
yourself in my mind, but another. For yourself I
have nothing bnt personal respect.' I should have
added these — 'b^cauie I have never Aad any tusinsss in
your court nnte you took eharrfe of it at Surroaaie, ' I
don't know anything about faim. you know.'
"And your 'personal respect ' for him is based on
general principles — ^is that it 1" asked the reporter.
"Yes; that's it. I never bad anytbiog to do with
him. " said Mr. Spanlding. ' ' However, smooth the
matter over as quietly as yon can : for I don't think
anybody is hurt by it yet, anyhow."

BOARD or TRADE — STEAM OK THE BELT
BOAB — TANDEEBILT'S KAILBUAD PRO-
JECTS.
Tho Importers' and Grocers' Boord ot Trade
met yesterday. Mr. Liawrenee Tumure, a member
of the Committee on Transportation, said tbat it ap-
peared unnecessary tor that committee to make a re-
port concerning the use ot steam on the Belt Rail-
road and terminal facilities generally, for the reason
that several of Its members belonsed also to the
committee appointed by the Chamber ot Commerce.
This latter committee had made a full report, which,
having been published, was well known to the
members ot the board. Hr. Tumure added
tbat he was one ot the minority, opposed
to the conclusions ot that report, as he did not be-
lieve such advantages would be derived from the u.<te
of steam on the Belt Boad aa most merchants antici-
pate. Mr. Harvey Farrington, also a member of the
Committee on Transportation, said he was happy to
snnouDce that the Board of Aldermen had eranted
tho privilege of using steam on the Belt Railroad.
Mr. Farrington also stated that he had learned that
Mr. William H. VanderbUt had. within a few days,
purchased an important link of the Grand Trunk
Railway, the possession of which by him would
obviate to a cert^n extent competition between the
3rand Trunk Boad and the New-York Central.
It was reported in conversation among members ot
the board at the close of the meetiM' that Mr. Van-
derbilt will soon have control of the Michigan Cen.
tral Road, negotiation* toward that end being in
progress. In case Mn VanderbUt succeeds, competi-
tion between the New-York Central and Grand
Trunk Railway* wni bo done away with altogether,

Bev. Dr- Talnutge, when qtiestloned yester-
Iny regarding the joint letter of the resigning Tms-

E. Pearsall. said that he felt grateful, relieved, and
like a man who had to tave ashing teeth pulled— glad
when ho sot them out He thought any Pastor
would congratulate Sim on the fact that they were
letters ot resignation. Dr. Talmage denies that any-
thing was said to Mm about reducing Mr. Morgan's

consult with him [Dr. Talmage) before he decided,
and Mr. Morgan, whan ho wrote to Mr. Bbnore, sup-
SStd that ^lett^ l»d ~«hed its destination.
So asked Mr. Blmore to subscribe to help pay tbo
debt, and Mr. Elmore might have said that their
expanses must be reduced. bn» If be did, it made no

HOW A DEFEATED CANDIDATE FEELS AFTER
THE ELECTIOK— MB. HUaH X*. GOI4S AS A
BEFOBHER.
There is quite a erlsts in the Sfaiibatiail Clab
over the annonnoement of a detenninatlpn on tbe
part ot a Southern gentleman. Hr. Hugh Ij. Cole,
one of the Assiitant Oonnsel.to the Oorporatibu, and
an ex-manager of the clab, to InTestEgate somebodx*
Mr. Cole has a predilection for investigations, hav-
ing presided as chief inqolsltor at the Aldennanie
Inqniry into the Ring frands, with T we^ as the cen-
tral ilgnre. The cause of his agcresslveneta Is due
to the narration, as he believes, by a deiaber of the
dub to a TzuKS reporter, and the subsequent publi-
cation in Thx Timks, oC the Issues involved in the
late canvass and election of four members of tbe
Board of Managers of the club. Mr. Cole was, at the
time in question, a manager, but he became a candi-
date for re-eleetion. There were four vaeaat places
to be filled by a general election, bnt there were five
candidates in the race, and on the largest vote
ever polled on the present membership of the
club Mr. Cole was defeated "by a Uree majority."
The tactics resorted to in the canvass were very
peculiar— peculiar to Tammany Hall snd bodies of
that ilk — and included the resignation from the
Board of Managers of Mayor Ely, who had vet.two
years to serve, so as to make five vacant pleeesin
the board and thus save Mr. Cole from the mortifica-
tion of defeat It is further asserted tbat Mr. Cole
made overtures to Mr. Gadwallader Evans, a candi-
date, sugrestingto him that It was nonecessary for
him to hazard an election, and that if he would
withdraw from the contest, after nomination,
Mr. Cole, on the new Board of Managers,, would se-
care Mr. Evaas' election to fill the vacancy caused by
Mayor Ely's resignation. Mr. Evans remained in
the race, however, and, instead of hazarding, any-
thing, was elected by the largest vote' of any of the
candidates, and by more than double tbe vote which
Mr. Cole received. There were other strange
doings niso which have never yet been told in- print,
one of which includes the dragsinc of a member to
a meeting of the board to accept Mayor Ely's
resignation. This gentleman was notbrious for
his lack of interest in the managers' meetings,
but on the occasion in aaestion, when notices were
issued Kt about 4 o'clock P. M. for a meeting to be
held at 5 o'clock the same afternoon, he. tothe sur-
prise of alt, was .present. It is said, perhaps un-
justly and unkindly, that this sreutUman, a part of
whose handsome building is leased by the City for
the use of a department of the City Qorernment,
tbought it best, or had heard that it would be as
well, not to imperil his lease. Mr. Cole is now seek-
ing to investigate the means by which The
Tnas became aware of tbe fact printed in
connection with the late election. He sometime
since stated that If he was re-elected he would lAake
members pny for their seltzer, wben they oraered
seltzer and wh sky. so tbat tne club might nat be in
the position of itlvinff away its seltjcer, which costs
somewhere between 713 and 10 cents per syphon.
"Sow he says he means to have the rules Amended in
another Important particnlar. He claims that on the
night of the election he saw a number treat a Times
reporter to a drink at the club bar. and be will Intro-
duce a resolution for a new rule prohibiting reporters
from being invited into or drinklns at the Manhattan
XJlnb bar or In its tiar-room. Mr. Cole Is a lawyer
by profession, and undoubtedly is bent on reforming
the whole system of practice at the bar.
THE ACCIDENT TO TBE MAGSyTA.
INVESTIGATION OF THE CAUSE OF THE EX-
PLOSION— AN tTNCOMMONLT RAPID COK-
BOSION OF IRON — THE LAST EXAMINA-
TION BY THE BOILER INSPECTORS— A
PIBEMAN ACTING AS ENGINEER "WITHODT
A LICENSE.
The investigation into the causes of the ex-
plosion of the tteam-boat Magenta, which occurred
nt Sing Sing on March 23, causing the loss oc' five
lives and the severe Injury of 10 or 15 persons, was
begun yesterday moruing before the United States
Local Inspectors of Stesm Vessels, in 'their office In
the Post Office Building. The examination was
made by Mr. John K. Mathews, Local Inspector of
Boilers, and Mr. Austin Jayne, Local Inspector of
Hulls.
John McCurdy, a boiler-maker, testtiled that he
found the iron of the steamer chimney at the place
of explosion reduced to one-slxteenth of an inch;
the outer shell was pretty evenly reduced by corro-
uon, bnt It was mora reduced where the explosion
oeenxred than elsewhere ; be did not consider the other
parts of the shell too much reduced to carry the strain
allowed ; it was the flnt case in his experlenee where
he had found the wasting away to be so rapid ; new
Itn itfgswere put in the chimneys about ayear ago, and
in taking ont the old HninET the genera] character of
the outer shell would be ascertained by sounding with
a hammer; wben tbe llnlnes were put In. bad the metal
been of the thickness of the piece shown to the wit-
ness it would have been discovered ; the estimate on
the boilers when they were buUt callod for five-six-
teenth inch thickness. Andrr^w Fletcher, of the
North River Iron Works, tes ified that the boilers
were built In 1872, and were not repaired until new
linings were put in the chimneys in 1877; the Iron
pat in the chimneys was of tensile strength of 50,-
000 pounds; it was unusual for tbe shell of steam
chimneys to wear out so rapidly ; in his experience
be had found tbat occasionally the ontaide, and
especially the inside, linings corroded rapidlv
where salt and fresh water were mixed in general
use ; the boilers foam more or less when the water is
mixed ; tbe constant wetting and dryine ranges cor-
rosion, and Jt was his impression thnt this was the
case with the Magenta ; when fresb or salt water was
used exclusively, the deterioration dnes nut take
place so rapidly as when the water Is mixed. James
H. Stephens, a boiler-maker, testified that he had
charge of the repairs of the old linings; psrt of them
were cut out and replaced by new : part new sockets
and some it the old that were good were used ; when
the new linings were put In. part of the upper course
and part of the bottom coarses were good ; tho other
parts were sllchtly oxidized; at that time he consid-
ered the chimneys safe to carry 50 pounds of
steam; he thought thnt felt covers to
chimneys prevents inspectors from sounding
to find out whether the chimneys were worn
or not, but they did not affect the metal.
Francis "Wilson, Superintending Engineer of the
Stephens & Condlt Transportation Company, testi-
^ed that wben renairs were made in 1S7G he sounded
the cbemlneys with a hammer. In his experience he
Ifad never known the destraction of metal so grreat as
in this case. Wben the boat ran to Bockaway, they
nsed salt and fresh water. When the boilers were
irspected the gauges registered 30 or 32
pounds from the hydrant, and they got the
pressure in the boilers 78 pounds. The in-
spectors went around the bollera, exnmlned
tnem and the Qovemment valve, and then left
the boat ; the pressure was marked by a borrowed
gauee. Arthur T. Hunt, a former engineer of the
Magenta, testified that be had examined tbe chim-
neys when the repairs were made, and considered the
boat in good condition when he left hor last July.
E. Hotalini;, tbe engineer of the 3Iacenta at tbe time
of tho explosion, testified to the manner of tbe acci-
dent, repeatina his testimony given before Coroner
Poshay. The man he left in charge bad t)een licensed,
but he thoTigbt his license had run out. WUHh-m
Flood, the fireman in charce of the engine when the
chimntiys exploded, testified that tbe gauge showed
42 pounds of steam immediately before the exlosion,
whereas they usually carried 35 to 40 pounds ; it
had gone up to 42 pounds because they were "shut
down" a little lonirer than usual. The witness had
held a license, but It nnd i^ipired. Tho license was
for first assistant of a 500-ton river steamer. Flood
signed his testimony with a cross.
The investigation will be continued this morning.
Coroner Foshay's inquest in the case of the
Magenta was resumed yesterday at Sing Sing. John
W. Blake, United States Local inspector, testified
that he inspected the Magenta on June 5, 1877. at
Newark. N. J., and {"ound her in good condition.
Continuing, he said: "I made no examination of
the steam chimney with a hammer, knowing that she
had a new lining tothe chimney and tbat the t>oat bad
not been run since she bad the new Itnlns ; I
Imew this by information from Mr. Frank Wootsey,
the engineer, who told me he had examfned the
chimney with James Stevens, Superintendent of
Fletcher & Harrison's boiler shop, and Mr. Fletcher
had examined the outside and pronounced it good ;
it la optional with me to examine with a hammer,
but I make it a common practice to do so; the origi-
nal thickness of the iron of the jiteam-chimn^ of
the Magenta was five-sixteenths of an inch : an ofnclal
inspection of the Magenta's boiler this Spring wotdd
have shown the defect." The jury, which is com-
posed of intelligent and earnest men, piled the wit<
ness with questions for at least two hours. Their
aim was to learn about the corrosive action of steam,
and In what practical__manner such accidents can be
ffuarded agahtst. An adjournment was taken till
Monday. •

FIB8T DAT OF TBE WOMEN'S HOTEL.
ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY GUESTS
- TO BEOm "WITH— ALL THE DEPARTMENTS
IN OPERATION.
Mr. Clare, the manager of the Wonien's
Hotel, sat that institution in operation yesterday
morning, and it became not only in name btit in fact
a hotel. The broad walk in front of the house was
.elesm and bright, and passers-by who flopped to loqk
up at the spacious vestibule saw that the door was
attended by a lai^ colored man in a faultless dress
suit, white waistcoat and necktie, while within a
number of little eall-boys were scurrying about la
answer to the annunciator. At the desks on each
side of the grand staircase, the clerks were' busy
opening the-r books. Guests to the number of about
50 took up their Quarters in tbe hotel before the
breakfast hour, and when the hour arrived for that
meal — the first to be served in tbe hotel — there were
ladles enough in tbe house to make the brlsfat and
cheerful dlaing-room look very attractive. With its
snowy linen, Ottering silver, and complete service
of eblna, not to forget the substantial breakfast that
waa supplied upon them, the room . was
not less Bumptuoua as a whole than! tbe
dining-room of any hotel in the coun-
try. The breakfast bill of fare was full
andvarled, the meats, fish and other provisions being
fresh from market. Tbe white jacketed and capped
cooks in the basement began their work at daylight,
tbe bakers were all at work in the bakery, the laun-
dresses were arraneing their mansles and other ap-
paratus for work, the store-keeper waa serving out
his supplies, and while breakfast was in profrress,
the arrangements were going forward for the luncb
and dinner. During the diy more than 150 guests
were received out of about 1,000 applications that
bad been received and considered'. As
these guests came in, they made selections
of rooms according to the price they
had stipulated to pay. The inner rooms, those fac-
ing the court, are found to be preferred, as they
are away from the noise of the street, and a win-
dow in each commands a view of the pretty court-
yard, with Its eracefnl rose fountain. Most of the
rooms taken so far have been ooenpied by single oc-
cupants. The dinner last night was partaken of by
all the regular guests and about 20 transient visitors.
Tbe bill of fare was equnl in every respect to that
of any of the great hotels, and was served with Ex-
traordinary promptness. In the evening, the
f>Rrlor and library were both brilliantly
Iluminated, the piano was heard in one.
and the librarian h.nd already opened the
cases in the other, to famish the guests with read-
ing matter from the well-selected stock of books.
Many visitors were shown through parts of the
house yesterday, tnelr inspection i>clng limited,
however, to the first floor and the court yard and the
working departments, as the privacy of the mtests is
to be taken into consideration, nnd none of them are
to l>e allowed to feel that thev are to be annoyed by
too eurioas people. Mr. Clare said last night that
he waa not prepared to say what provision would be
made for transient guests arriving in the City
at the house when it would be difficult for
them to find lodgings, but the clerk at the
desk would undoubtedly be able to exercise some
discretion in sneh cas-^s. and when he was perfectly
E.itisfied about the eligibility nf an applicant he
would no doubt receive her. The rooms will be
filled up now as fast as applirations are accepted,
and the hotel will be carried' on without further
change from the order of yesterday than may be ne-
cesshry in the kitchen and storeroom to provide for
a larger number of guests than were fed on the first
uay.
THE GEE A T SIXTE-A VEXUE BAZAAB.
OPENING DAY AT MACY & CO.'S— A PLACE
WHERE ALMOST ANYTHING MAY EE
During tbe past few days, on the occasion of
the Spring opening at the vast estabUshmAnt of R.
H. Macy & Ca. of Foar tee nth-street and Sixth-
avenue, the place has been unusually crowded with
visitors. This house Is so well known that It Is
almost unnecessary to say that unusually crowded
means it was scarcely possible to move about the
premises. Tbe special attraction of the house con-
sists in the universality of the stock, almost every
article of dress and household furniture being for
sale there, and at the moat reasonable prices. A
lady can do all her ahopp'mg. however extensive it
may be, and however long it may occuoy ner, with-
out even leaving to seek refreshment elstewhere, for
there is a separate departmeut devoted to this
purpose. This week, attention has been cj^pe'ciully
directed tothe suit department, on the second floor,
where there is a great variety of toilets, suitable for
all occasions. The most noticeable characteristic of
the stock is the perfect combination of color ; there
is not a suit to be seen in which the hues are not
admirably blended and contrasted. In these times,
when so many peculiar shades of irree-. red, and
yellow are used, this is not easy to accomplish. Most
elegant black faille suits are also exhibited ;
among them is a princess toilet, heavily
worked with beads. with plaited scarfs
in front, trimmed with fringe surmounted by beaded
galloon. The skirt is trimmed with a plait^^d flounce.
r>own the front are two bands of beadt^d galloon.
The lower part . of the train turns over, forming
revers; down the centre are narrow bands of ealtoon.
On the side is a Normandy bow. Another black toi-
let, which combines faille and satin, has satin scarfs
trimmed with jet galloon, fringe, and small drooping
buttons. The long train has no flounce, and is
plaited down the liack with satin intermixed. Many
beautiful eombications of navy blue ana broch6 are
also on view. One of these is of plain faille
with light hlne cordings and fancy goods in three
colors. On the loni; basque in the back are thr^e
blue plaited ruffles, with light blue cordings. The
lone coat front is ornamented Tvith buttons and
loops. The overdress Is of the fancy goods. A
great assortment of organdies and lawn suits may
also be seen, made in various stTle^ and also organdie
waists. The children's suits are also very prettily
made.
A very good selection may be found among the
bonnets and round hats, both trimmed and un-
trimmed. Those in the show-cases are trimmed with
the fashionable trimmings, such as pearl beads com-
bined with ostrich feathers, watered ribbons, and
flowers.
ABSURD STOniES ABOUT JfJfE. RESTELL.
The ridiculous sensation in regard to Mme.
Restell's death did not die out yesterday, as mizht
have been expected, but rather gained in number of
believers. There la, however, not the slightest doubt
that Ann Lohman waa found dead on Monday morn-
ing, nor tbat she waa buried in the Sleepy Hollow
Cemetery, near Tarrytown. The body was seen not
only by Coroner Woltman and bis dieputy. Dr. Cush-
man, but by Mr. Orland<j L. Stewart, tbe members of
the household, and the Coroner's jury. Mr. John
H. Sherwood, who was one of the Coroner's jurors,
is Vice-President of the Fifth-Avenue Bank. Mme.
Restell kept an account there, and Mr. Sherwood
frequently saw her In the bank and waa well
acquainted -with her appearance. Mr. William
B. Wait, another of the jnrors, is in business
at No. 521 Fifth-avenue and No. 151 West Fifty-
first-street, within a block of Mme. Hestell's house.
Both of these gentlemen saw the body ; the jurors
all remarked upon the resemblance of the fare to an
oil-painting of the dead woman which hnng upon one
of the walls, and all are satisfied that the body was
that of Ann Lohman. Superintendent Walling con-
siders the story ridiculous, and savs that It was
doubtless started as a newspaper sensation.
If any deception had been practiced, it
could only have been done through collusion
with Coroner Woltman. Pepaty Coroner Cushman,
and Mr. Orlando L. fc?tewart. Mme. Restell's coun-
seL The Superintendent said that this story was
similar to the one which gained circula-
tion immediately after tbe suicide of J nhn
C. Colt while in the Tombs awaiting
execution for murder, and which occurred a few
hours before the time appointed for tbe banging. A
fire occurred in the Tombs on the morning in ques-
tion, and it was asserted by some that Colt bad
escaped during the excitement consequent upon the
fire, and that a dead body had been smuggled Into
the prison and palmed off a^ tne corpse of Colt.
Although this occurred over 20 vears ago, there are
plenty of people in this City to-day who believe that
Colt is alive. Recently a story was published that
be had been seen in Texa*, notwlttistandinK tbe fact
that several of the jurors who convicted him saw the
body in the Tombs and Identified it.
Hon. Ambrose H. Purdy has written to Ths Ttuxs
to say that he was not a relative of Mme. Restell,
and never saw her till he waseneaged as her counsel.
Also, that the family of Purdys with which Mme.
B€»teU was connected are in no way related to him.

ka^or Polk b^dMsUxIng the offlMTmeuit. The
ttitmim of Polk nude a determined stnifc^
bnt only 95 Demoerats eonld be ladaeed to r»-
eqrd themielTse In f ayer of lb, Eden's sabetl-
tot*, wtdeh in efFeet laid. "Continoe to

Th« OoaoerM* wen taniblr luped to-
day tstin drntnc the debate, Mr. Baker,
of Indiana, who preaented the charges afiaat
Falk. thenjtht the eridenee would have joati-
iled the eommittee in pronooneing Polk goilty
of eorrnpt pmetleea. Hr. Hale annoyvd the
JDemoeratle side by holding np their bad manage-
Kent of the alEiin of the House as eonelnsive
eridenee of their inability to administer the
OoTeramant. "Polk.''he said, "is a eteatore
othis party. He is what the Demoeratie Party
made him, and should not be held resoonslble
for the Ineritable." He described the crowds
that beleagoeied the Capitol prior to the organi-
sation of Congress, begging for places, and said
" every one of those mendicants had a Repre-
sentative to break open the door when the Door-
keeper closed it upon them." The Demoeratia
Party was to blune for aU this trouble and
scandal, and they were striving to make Polk
their scape-goat. " If ibey cannot administer
the business offices of the House, how can it be
expected that they can administer the various
departments of the Government, for the poaaee-
■lon of which they are striving so ear-
Bsetlyf Upon the conclusion of Mx. Hale's
speech, Ur. Eden moved the previoiu qnee-
tion, which being sustained, all fnrthv
debate was ent off. This was a snrprlae
to the Door-keeper's friends, who expected an
hour after the previous question in whiish to
let^ to the arguments made by the opponents
of Polk. Considerable WTangUng oceuired
over this misunderstanding; Some of the Be-
publicans desired to give the Demoeratie side
an additional hour, but Mr. Townsend. of New-
Yark, objected. He said ISf. Eden had
■noiaeded in tyinjc himmlf up on the
table, and should be kept ttiere. Eden's'
anbstitnte was rejected, and the
report of the committee was adopted b7 139 to
80. The proposition to place the office in charge
of the Sergeant-at-Arms encountered oppoaitian
from a number of Democrats, and upon the
ooittpletion of the roU-eall the proposition was
defeated ; but before the result was announced
sufficient chances were made to carry it by 7
mi^jority. Mr. Hale tried to obtain the Boor to
move that the House proceed to elect a Door^
keeper, but the Speaker entertained a motion
to adjourn, which was carried. Several Demoerats
whofettaggriered with thelrpacty for punishing
Folk, manifested a disposition to unite with the
Bepublicana to proceed at once to an election
for Door-keeper. They voted acainst plaelng
the office in cliarge of Sergeant-at-Arms Thomp-
son, and also against the motion to adjourn,
bqt-were ilnally drtrsn back to the party fold
and persuaded to change their votes. A caucus
win be held shortly to determine upon another
victim for the place from which Fltzhugh and
Polk hare been " bounced" because they were
BO weak as to disregard the law upon the de-
mand of Demoeratie Congressmen.

WASHweTOJT, April 4.— The debate on
the Bailway Funding bill was continued in the
Senate to-day. Stanley Matthews was the prin-
eipal speaker, and made an esceedingly strong
and ingenious legal argument in favor of the
bill reported from Iha Baiboad Commit-
tw> At the elow of bis •peeeh. however,
l« aorprised most of those present by
wit^drswing his lesohition to substitute
tli«~ Baifaoad Comm'.ttee bin for the
»B« fatheiad by Senator Thuinian and the Jo-
llelary Committee. This action is generally re-
garded as an abandonment by the railway com-
panies of the position iriiich they have up to
ihistimeoeeivlad. Thay saw, evidenUy, that
It would beimposstUa for them to carry ont
their original purpose, and they are now willing
to content themsatves with something lees than
they at lint demanded. The withdrawal of
the Matthews naehition was the lint act in the
saw piognuBma. The second was the intro-
dnetlen by Senator Chaffee of a reaolu-
aon to substltuta Ua hfll, presented yes-
terday, for the ooa which came from
the Jndldary Committea. The Chaffee
bffl provldea for the astabUshment «f a stakiaff
fund by the roads, and contains most of the
provisions embodied to the Chalmera Pro Bata
Mil. Mr. Cbafhe tfta to much purpose in
«vor of tha maaaota proposed by him, arid the
day closed by a sfaaip parliamentary cross-fire,

WASEDtOTOK,' April 4.— It is' nnfortnnate
for Montgomery Blair's attempt to try the title
of the President that he is wholly dependent on
Congress to provide the neeeoaiy machinery.
He is so elated with his success^ in securing the
Maryland liOgislatuTe, which seemed to be as
mueh against the business as Congress itself,
that he expects to carry his measures in Wash-
ington, and is. said to promise that
the trial of the President shall begin to a few
weeks, and that Tilden shall be to the White
House withto a specified number of months.
The project falls perfectly flat to Washington,
and there are probably not a score of Demo-
crats to the House who wotdd reaUy desire to
cooperate to earnest with Blair's scheme.
Then ia a show of supporting it among a cer-
tsto class, but the opposition is quite decided
and outspoken. Blair's scheme is to brtog for-
ward the UU reported at the end of laat ses-
sion from David Dudley Hield's eommittee,
which provides a complete system of judicial
machinery for determintog the title to the Presi-
dential ofSce. The bill was nported too late to
be prtoted, but its substance is toeorpoiated to
the (/oagrssiuHKiJ Steard, and the biU itself is
stored away to the manusoripta to the arehtves
of the House. It wiU very probably be exhumed,
totrodueed, and referred to the' Judiciary Com-
mittee. It is barely possible that Mr. Blidr may
succeed to creating some excitement by and by,
but just now it looks as though he would not
succeed even to attraettog ordinazy attention to
his remarkable project.

Waseoiotok, April 4.— Mr. Wood was
prevented from getttog up the Tariff blU
to-day by reason of the House betog engaged
in disposing of the Door-keeper. There is no
prospect now that the consideration of the bill
wiU begto before Tuesday. To-morrow betog
private bill day, Mr. Wood wiU have no chance
to get up the Tariff biU, and Monday betog de-
voted to the eaUof States, it is not likely he
win be able to get the floor until too late to the
day to make his opentog speech. The Tariff biU
was qade a special order subject to the regular
Appropriation bills, and aa the Legislativa,
Exeeutive. and Judicial bUl Is now pending, that
bill may be taken upon Tuesday. Its considera-
tion has been delayed on account of the sick-
neas of Mr. Atkins, Chairman of the Committee
on_AppropriaUons, who wiU have it to charge,
and should he be preeent to the House on Tues-
day, he win antagonize it with the Tariff bilL
Should the House decide to eonsider this
Appropriation bill, tiie tariff wiU go over for
another week at least, as that period of time
win be necessary to complete the consideraUon
of the legislative approprlaUona.

a modified form of slave traffie still ex-
ists between that region and the Porto-
gnesa ■ Islands of St Thomas and Prin-
cess through the former agenta of the
slave trade between Oabornl and St. Paul da
Loauda. ABritish gun-boat recently captured a
brig with over 100 men, women, and children
on board, in a miserable condition, who had
been captured and shipped near St Paul as
"freelaliorers." The spirit of the slave trade
stlU exists, and, if not carefully watehad, will
find meana to revive and increase.

liOKDOir, April4. — The iinmtellig:ib1e ni-
mon recenUy current of a Cabtoet crisis to
Bncfaareetare explained by a letter from that
city, dated April 1, telegraphed here from Yi-
eima. It seems that while the people and Le-
gislature are unanimously opposed to Russia,
there is k strong suspicion that Prince Charles
and his Cabinet are prepared to consent to the
cession of Besssrabia, and had reaUy agreed with
Gen. Iguatieff to this senae,but found the feeUng
in opposition so strong thst they feared a revo-
lution if they proceeded with the scheme. The
Pro-BuBsian Party, continues the letter, are, of
oohrse, anti-Austr^n, and eireumstances mnat
determine whether the Cabtoet will carry out
the will of tbe nation or throw themselves
into the arms of Russia. This explanation is
partiaUy confirmed by tbe fact that Buehsiest
telegrams are very undecided in tone. One
pubH^ed to London this morning says : '*Tbe
Government is seekinsr to allay tbe unnecessary
and impolitic excitement over the Besssrabian
qnestlon."
M. Cogatoieeann, the Roumanian Mtoister of
Foreign •Affairs, writes to the Roumanian
Agent at Vienna, Mareh 16, that Prince
Gortsehakoff had declared to Prince Ohika,
toe Boumsnian Agent at St Petersbtirg, that
notwithstanding - our clamoring Russia's
decision in regard to Bessarebla was ir^
revocable. Russia would not briuK the
qnestlon before the congress nor consent to
another power dotogso, as it would be an offense
to the Emperor. If she could not make us give
in she would takeBessarabia by force,and armed
resistance would be fatal for Roumania. The
diapatch oonclndes; "Notwithstanding these
threats we persist to our refusal to yield."
The Roumanian Agent at 'Vienna communi-
cates to Sir H Q. Elliot April 3, a dispatch
from the agent at St Petersburg, recounting a
conversation with Prince Gortsehakoff, who
said : " Is it true that your Govern-
ment Intends to protest against ■ the
article of the treaty which provides for the
commtmication of the army in Btilgaria with
Russia throngh Roumania f The Emperor has
ordered me to inform yon that if you have such
an totention he will order the occupation of
Roumania and the disarmament of tbe Rou-
manian Army."
The agent repUed that Russia should have
treated with Bonmania, not with Turkey, con-
cerning the passage of the army.
Prince Gortsehakoff rejotoed : " We did not
choose to have anything more to do with you
on aecotmt of your conduct It Is important
that you should know that we tosist upon a
free passage through yotir country, and that
yon should inform your Government of tiie
Emperor's deelaratioo. Your Qovemment
must plainly state their decision."
LoKDON, April 5. — The Timaf dispatch from
Bucharest says it is becoming extremely im-
probable that a protest of the Roumanian Gham-
hers against the treaty will be sent to St Pe-
tenburg.
The i>aily T'alevnipA's Vienna special says:
" I hear from first-nte authority that a rupture
between the Russians and Roumanians is ex-
ceedtogly probable. The latter, to spite of their
numeriad toferiority, are determtoed to resist
any attack, believing that the excitement to
Hungary would compel Austria to toterfere."

London, April 4. — Sir Stafford Northeote,
to expWntog the budget to the House of Com-
mons to-night, stated that the revenue for
1877-88 had been £79,763,298, and expendi-
tures £78,903,495. The surplus for the past
year was consequently £890,803. Of the
£6,000,0000 voted £3,600,000 had been ac-
tually expended, and soma further liabilities
toenrted. The surplus was thus converted
info a deficit of £2,640,000. To meet this
deficit and further Uabillttes the Government
had applied £730,000 ot the surplus revenue
and issued exchequer bonds tor £2,750,000,
running for one year only, Tbey thus com-
menced the year with a temporary debt ot
£2,760,000, The estimated deficit tor 1878-0
was £1,660,000. This does not iaelade
any provision tor the redemption of treasury
bonds or for farther liabilities, £500,000' ot
wMeh had been incurred tor the Army and
£200,000 for the Navy, which would haya to
ba met by supplementary estimates. They far-
ther estimated the expense of i^'H'^g out the

London, April 4. — I>eBpite the ^teeehes
of Lords Granville and Hartington to the dep-
utation ot the National Liberal . Federation at
the Westmtoster Palaee Hotel yesterday, it ia
not believed that the opposition win take any
strong Une against the Government's policy,
Mr. Gladstone and his foUowen may endeavor
to force the party leaden toto active an-
tagonism, and todependent' memben may
totroduce resolutions disproving the caUtox
ont ot the reserves, bnt there -will be
strong counter-influences which the party lead-
en are not likely to disregard. A movement
ha* already received the aohesion ot 60 or 70
Liberal members, having for its object to pre-
vent the party from trammeltog the Govern-
ments foreign poliey.
The Timet, to its leading editorial article,
strongly condemns the objects of the deputation,
and sharply criticises tiie qieeehes ot Lords
GranviUe and Harttogton. It says: "The
deputation themselves kre bound to admit that
they did not to all eases, represent msjorities
in tiie constituencies, and there are no means
ot knowtog how far their eonstitoencies share
the sentimenta expressed. If the Gov-
ernment's views are fallacious, it is the
duty ot the Opposition to endeavor
to restrain the Government and enlighten the
country. If no such attempt is made, or if it
f ails, it can only he concluded that the deliber-
ate judgment of the eotmtry is in favor of the
general poliey of the Government Lord Gran-
ville is nardly fair, therefore, to assigning to
the Government undivided responsibility in
aueh a crisis. It' cannot be too often
reiterated that we only ask Russia to
enter into the congress without reserve, and
listen before she tskes any final decision to
what the other powen may have to say respect-
ing the preliminary trea^ ahe has made with
Turkey. A more modenterequesteould hardly
be made, and to designate it, as was done
vesterday by the deputation, as a warlike
policy, is unjust and nusleadtog."
The ManchestierfrKoniiaM, a Liberal journal,
strongly condemns the sort of pressure this
deputation intended to put on the Liberal
leuers, as well as their assumption that the
Government's policy is warlike. " The Minis-
ters," it says, " are net to be held responrible
if peace is threatened or broken, because they
oppose aims wbleh, though unawowed and ille-
gitimate, are deariy withto the scope ot tbe
Russian poliey." .
In the House ot Commons this afternoon Mr.
Gladstone asked, flntly. if it was the inten-
tion of the Govemmentm the recent eommnni-
tlons regardtog the congress to reserve to itself
liberty to 'Withdrsw from the congress upon tha
the proposal to discuss any matter, discussion
of which it did not thtok admissible ; and sec-
ondly, why England refused a preliminary con-
ference.
Sir Stafford Northeote, Chancellor ot the
Exchequer, repUed, firstly, that aU England
wanted at the congress waa the discutsion of
every article of the treaiy ; and, secondly, that
Lord Derby'a dispatch gave the reason for de-
clining the preliminary conference. Mr. Glad-
atone thereupon gave notice that he would raise
discussion to-morrow because of Sir Stafford
Korthoote's unsatistaetory reply.

London April, 4. — ^The toll text of Lord
Salisbury's circular had not reached St Peters-
burg or 'Vienna yesterday eventog, but judg-
mente on telegraphic summaries thereof, show
thatits tenor is very weU understood. At St
Peterabnrg It is regarded ar proof that
the eongreas oould not have succeeded if
it had met to the spirit ot this
dretilar. At Vienna the effect is so satisfactory
as to almost compensate tor the tsilun of the
congress negotiations. This offset is said
to be heightened by the feet that the pub-
lie mtod was whoUy unprepared tor auoh
broad views on the part, ot England. Though
the Cabinets may have nudentood each other,
^e Austrian people beUeved that England
would only object to such spedfle articles ot the
treaty as affected tiie toterests she reserved at
the outset, leavtog Atistria to take care ot her
own. Lord Salisbury's objections to the treaty
fnUy embrace those ot Austria, and es-
tabUsh community ot toterest whieh has long
been felt to exist but which is only now
brought clearly before the public Austria now
awaits the effect of the English and her own
oommunicationa at St Petersburc
At Vienna, it is ndC tiiere is every disposi-
tion to fadlitete the transformation of the treaty
in a European sense, and to show every oon-
dderatibn for Russia. But the OoTemment
at St Peterabnrg must know by this
time tiiat to satisfy Austria the trana-

CiNClNXATi, April 4.— Western Associated
Preaa diapatchea from Washington to-night contain
a denial ot the story ot ex-Congressman Yanee'a
elopement with a handsome mnsic teacher. The de-
ntal Is made upon the authority of Vance's personal
friends in Washington, who claim to he advised
of the woman'a movements. However the
case may .look at Washington, drcnm-
atancea which have developed at CoL Vance's
home, point very strongly to the theory that there is
a woman in the case. The Portsmontn Tritmne.
which ispnblished ia Vance'a district aay* that a
dose inquiry and comparing of notes have dia^pated
the theory of hla murder, and left very little indicat-
ing anicide. It -was fonnd that Vance had been
borrowinc money right and left, and had
adroitly managed every movement from the time be
left home, so as to cover hia tracks when be took the
final jomp into the dark on that Thnrsday even-

-with the Intention of meeting on aome foreign shore.
or ia aome remote and hidden bower. A difficulty oc-
eorred a year ago between Col. Vance and his wife
about this same woman, bnt sospicion waa allayed
and peace temporality restored. The Tritntm says :
"We make these annonncomenta with reeret. and

PATIHG A FiyS WITB COUPONS.
Richmond, Va., April 4. — Tbe Supreme
Court of Appeals to-day deddsd that coupons were
receivable for all fines due the State. The decision
was rendered in the habeaa corpus case of a prisoner
who had tendered eonpons in payment of a fine im-
posed by the Hustings Court and which had been
refnsed. Judge Chrlatisn, who delivered the opin-
ion, held that decision* in former cases bad estab-
lished the constitntionalitr of the Funding biH, and
that the language of that law that coapona ahonld be
zcoeived in -pn^ent of all taxes, debts, does, and de-
manda of the Commonwealth, was as broad and eom-
urebenslTS ss it could be. He met the question of
tbe right of the Lecislature to make a contract an-
-tborix^the money dedicated to the schools by the
Oonstitotion to he paid in eonpons, and stated that tha
Conatltntion meant that snch amount as shoald be
leallsed from flnea ahoald be paid to schools.
nie aapport ot the achoola.was a high daty, but the
payment of tbe State debt waa eqaaily hifrh, and the
State bad no right to dedicate money dne htir credi-
tors to school purposes. She must be just before ahe
18 generous, and it eonld not be aappoaed that the
la^latore would fall to perform the duties — ^pay
the debt and support the sdioola. He did not dla-
caaa the other qacation ralaed in the case aa to tbe
rigbt of the 8tate.to collect a tax ont of the coapona,
but ittssmueh aa tbe court held that coupons most
be reeelved for fines at their face valae, irithont de-
daetlns tbe tax, tbe effect of the dedaion Is to de-
clare that no taxeaa be eolleeted or retained from
coapona, and that tbary must be received at tbeir ^ce
valae. He dedaxed that eoupona were gold aa far as
the State is concerned. Tbe decision receives tbe m-
donement of fonr out of tbe five Judges.

HOW THE SKCBETABT WILL. PBOCUBB GOLIk
Soeretary Sherman— Ton mnst see that for saa
to state too closely what I propose to do migbt pra>
▼ent ma from doing what I expect to do, an<l-tbcr»-
fore I will answer yoor qnestlon jost as far a%l tbinfc
yon will say I OQ^t to go. I answer, mai«1y froa
tbe sale of bonds, fodeed. in the present «oDdztioa
of the twenna, wa cannot expect mneh lialp from
snrplns reTonne. emept ao far as that aBiplua ter>
ennemaybe applied to tha payment of greeobacn
and to the redemption of fraetlonal cnxreney ia MiA
of the TJT^^Tig fnnd. To that extent I
think we can rely vpoa reTenne enongh to retire tbe
United Statoa notea, redeemed nnder the Besnmittioa
act, to that I would say that we can get the $50,-
000,000 of gold additional by the sale of bonds.
As to the kind of bonds that I would sell, and aa to
how I woTUd sell them^, Ac, I oneht not to aay uiy*,
thing dn that snbjeet at preeent. beeanse yon ooghk
to allow ae. as an exeeotiTB ofBeer in tba
exerdse of a Tery delirate discretion, free
power to act as I think ri|^ at the
moment, holding me responsible for my action after*
ward. As to what bonds I will sell or iriuse I wCQ
sell them or bow I wiU sell them, as that is a disesa-
tionary power left wiih the Secretary, I on^t not to -
decide that now, bat to dedde it as the ease ariaes.
Mr. Ewing— I understand you to say. la ytiiir ioa
terview with the Senate committee, that you would
bare to rely iq>on the natural cnrrents of trade to
enable you to sell : that is, that there cannot ba «
large sale Of bonds for coin abroad. It is net on «
foreign sale that you are Telyisg?
Hr. Sherman— Not at aU, but on a Bale at borne.
Perhaps I might as well say if I can get two4hirds ot
this year's supply of gold and silrer. it will amount
to a good deal more than $50,000,000, so that I do
not have to go abroad for gold. If we can keep our
own gold and silrer from going abroad it is more
than I want.
The Ch^rman— For this $50,000,000 additional.
I suppose yon rely to some extent on the oofaaaga of
sOrer?
Secretary Sherman— To some extent; slverand.
gold we consider tbe same under the law.
Mr. Ewing— Do you expeot to pay out the sQrer
dollar coined by you for current expenses, or only
for coin liabilities, or to hoird it for resumption f
Secretary Sherman— I expect to pagr it out now
only in exchange for gold coin or for silver buUson.
I am xwrfeetly free to answer the question fully, be-
cause, ,^n that point, after eouBuItiae with many
members of both houses, I have made up my ccind
what the law requires me to do. I pvopoee to issue
all tbe silver dollars that are demanded in exclianga
for gold coin. That haa been croing on to some ex-
tent, bow far I cannot tell. Then I propose to use
the silTer in payment for silver buUiou,
wbicb I can do at par in gold, without any loss afrei
the first $5,000,000 are purchased, for which aa
appropriation was mads in the Silver biU. I then
propose to bur ftQ tbe zest ot the silTar bullioa
which I need under tbe law wltii silTBr coin. Aa a
matter of eouiae, ia tbe current course of bu^ness,
some of that sUrer coia . 'wiU go into
circulation; bow much, I do not
The .more, tbe better for us. Bat
of it, I take it, will be traasferred to tbe Treasury
for silver certificates, (tbat seenxs to ba tbe idea oC
the bill.) and those silver certificates wiU ecuoe into
the Treasury in payment of dudea, and in that way
practically, the silTer will belons to the Gov«rumeas
flgain. Until silver is BO abundant that it becomes
Uie acknowledged basis of coin trans&ctiozia, we '■an-
not pay out that silver for tbe ordinary expenses of
the Government, because we have not enonjdi to
pay all ihe expenditures in silver ; and if tbe silver
la maintained at par with gold, and if the United
States notes are below par with gold, we cannot dia-
criminate in favor of any class oC • reditors ; we
would, therefore, have to hold silver at par with gold
until we either have enough to pay everything with
it. or until the legal-tender notes are praciicaii?
at i>ar with gold and silver. That is a matter over
which I have no more control than any other ettixen.
The silver dollars bpng receiv^e for dntjet
— the law allowing them to be converted
into certificataa whieh are receivable fox
Customs — ^I must reeelve them ; aad I ooold aol
prevent, if I tried, the ailver from coming into ^e
Treasury, either for silver eertificatea or payment of
duties. As to when I shall oommeace paybig them
out for tbe current expendltarsa of tbe GoinarameaX
or ia payakent of tbe iaterest or priacipal of tbe deb«
I cannot teU, beeanse that would depend upoa tdCts
OQualitr of tbe three kinds of ciunncy— gold, sil>
ver, and paper, "h do not know whether I make
myself undervtooo, bat' tiiat is the general idea J
haVe in my mind. As a matter of course, it being s
great discretionaTy power whieh you hav« invested
in the office of Secretary of tbe Treasury, while ]
bold tbe office I will be very careful to exercise thai
power so as to carry out in good faith the Uw ai

THE SIKSINO' FUND.
Coming to the question of tbe sinking fund about
which so much had been said in tbe last oonteraDoe,
Mr. Ewing put tbe following qiu«ti<Hi to tba Secre-
tary : Did any law officer of tha Goverament or aay
Secretary c€ the Troaaury give a written opin&Mi to
tbe effect that tbe aathocity givaa to ttie Secretarv
of the Treasury by tbe Basumptii(m law to nso any
snrphxa revenue from time to tuaa in the Treasury,
not otberwiaa appropriated, to prepare and provide
for tbe resumption of legal taadeca, affect in anyway
tbe obligation imposed by that section of the Re- '
vised Sutntes which deelures that the eoii^ p«id fox
Coatoma shall be aat apart aa a q>ee^ fund aad s«*
plied, first, to tbe interest oa tbeaublio debt, and,,
second, to tbe ainkJag fnnd t
Seetetazy Sherman— No; I think that no law
officer of tbe Government or ao Secretary of the
Treasury has yet authoritativeiy decided tKat ques-
tion as yon put it now. The question which the
Secretary of the Traasary did decide was, thai
IJaited Statea notes and fractional notes, being s
rof tbe pnbUe debt, may be included
tbe ■***'*^<**g fund; aad practiaUy, we

the Treaanry, aa a matter of eonrae, wonld v> on and

aeflclenry he wonld report that deficiency
to Consxesa, and if there was any faalt

sbonld either provide additional TereBaea to keep np
the linking fund, or else should reduce approprla*

nry when the ilrst tronble took place. The exact
condition of the Tr^asnry waa given two montha
after the panic, and so on by every Secretary, and
aa Congress did not feel disposed (and i think right,

to lew a tax upon tea and coffee, to make good the
sinking fund, I would like it very nmcb. Bat I do
not think Conirress will do sot
Mr. Kwing^ eness not.
Secretary Sherman — Because I do not think that
the n«oplo would sustnln Congress in it. So I do not
thlnlc there can be any just criticism in throwing on
the sinking fund the actual deficiency in rwennAi be-
cause any Secretary of the Treasury who would un-
dertake to refuse to psy the ctirrent expenses of the
Covcmmcnt, and who wonld at the same time pay
the whole amount of this technical slnlclng fund in
the purchase and payment of the debt, would be over-
hauled very quickly.
HOW A DRAIN W0UI.O BE CHECXSD.
After the exhaustion of thii point, Mr. Ewiagpnt
the following question to the Secretary : In caae of
a drain of gold from the Treaaury, what meaanra
vronld yon resort to in order to cheek it — I mean
after resumption 1
Secretary Sherman — The Treaanry ongbt to be so
strt>ng that the thing would aheck ttaelf. Ton can
■carcety imagine, in the probabUitiea of bnalneaa,
that with no ontstaudlne liabilltiea that are n'ot
covered by actual caab on band, exoept the ^300,-
000.000 of legal-tender notea, the drain npon the
Government would be so great aa to exhauat the
reserve of $120,000,000. That proposition la all
based, not upon the fact that 9120,000,000 would
pay$800.0<)0,000— weall know that ia not ao— but
npon the fact that it U imposaible to gather together
Xctted States notes, and to present them in snch a
mans and in such a continuous stream, and that the
very effort to do so would raise the value of United
States notes. Their convenience Is so great and the
necessity for Chem so apparent that such an effort
would at once bring them up to par In gold. 1 think
tbat a drain of five. ten. fifteen, or twenty mlliiona
would at once tend to bring up the value of green-
backs until they were at par in gold, and then there
would be no object at all in drawing them out.
Mr. Kwing — After resumption, the greenback
mast rcu^aiu at par In gold aa long as the Txeaaury
maintains re5nniptIon f
Secretarv Sherman — ^Certainly ; and while they
are at par in gold they will not tie presented to any
considerable extent.
Mr. Ewing— Of course. If there waa an estabUxhad
difference of 1 per cent., or ^ of 1 per eent.. be-
tween gold and greenbacks, the Tteaaury would be
brolcen prettv qniek 1
Secrcrnry Sherman — ^Tea. Sir, or a quarter of 1
percent.; there ia no doubt about that.
ilr. Ewing — Therefore, afier resumption, green-
backa must necessarily be at par with gold ao long aa
the Secretary is able to maintain resumption. Now.
1 am suoposinz a case of a drain of gold from the
action of foreign creditors, or from any other cause,
and want to know what means you would resort to
to check it. ♦
Secretary Sherman — ^I do not think that It wonld
^ be neceasary to resort to any means ; but if it were
necessary to devise some means, I would resort to
such as have been adopted in other conntrlea — the
tcm'Dornry suspension of specie payment. That ia a
question for Congaess. The British Bank act, which
is so oftcTi quoted as the standard, makes no pro-
vision for suspension ; there is no legal suspension
of payment In England, nor does our law make any
provision for it If the Government should meet
auch an adverse state of circumstancea aa to make
Buspensicn absolutely necessary, the Government
would necessarily have to take the xesDOnsibility of
it, loHVing Comcress to dptenuine irliether the cir-
cumstances justified it. That baa alwaya been so.
3Ir Phiilins — Then do you think that the Secre-
tary of the Treasury has the power to tnspend specie
payment ?
Secretarv Sherman— Ko, Sir : botlf demand* were
made upon the Treasurr, which the Secretary oould
not p.ny unless he waa to pay them out of hia own
pocket, h» woulAhave to atop paying. That la all
there is about ItT
Mr. Ewing— When, ahort of the point of ytrar ae-
tnal inability to go fortl^er, wonld yon feel at liberty
to stop I %_ _^
Secretary Sherman — ^That I cannot state. That
will not occur in ray time if you give me now snob a
reserve as I mention, and it will not occur at aU, in
yotir time or In my time. In mv judfiment. But we
cannot anticipate what the future Trill bring forth.
We do not know but what we may be involved in
trar, which wonld compel a suspension of payment,
■nd we do not know wtiat might be the effect of war
tn Europe.

Mr. PhlUlpa— 1 waa going to aak you on that vary
point. Would not a general war in Europe remit in
raising the piice of goldf _ . .
.Secretary Sherman— Wlae man dUtar very mneh
upon that. I think that a general war ta Europe
1^ onld give such a demand for onr affrienltmal pro-
dncts, and for evoything that wo nrodueo and aoD,

the notes of national banks, every dollar of them ia
secured by United Statea bonda to an amonnt of at
leaat 10 per cent, greater than the amount of notea

credit and ready sale that lu the ordinary eouraa of
business they can be very readily converted- Into any
kind of money.
Mr. Ewbig— ^C'^iat about the 91,500,000,000 ot
deposlta in other banka than national banks!
Seeretary Sherman— They are private IndMdnal
debta; the (government has nothii^ to do with them.
Hr. Swing— The (Sovemment baa certainly to con-
sider them m the act of resimiption t
Seeretary Sherman— It baa to consider them ]nst
ss it has to eoBslder any other poblle fact.
Mr. Ewing— More than that: they have a direct
bearing on toe praetieahlllty of Oovemment redemp-
tion, for the le^-tender note la the only absolute
coin that can be demanded from the nattoaal banks,
andontbe9300,<XK>,000of legal-tender notea reat
ta0O.0OO,OO0 of natkmal bank notee. aqd 92,120,-
000,000 of cash demand deposits. That ia all to be
eoivddered.
Oeecetary Sbermim— It la all to be eonsldered,
but 910 will pay 910 of deposits in the ordinary
conraa-of bualnesa.
Mr. Hartiell— Does the mere faet that the Gov-
ernment win, on the 1st of January, be able to re-
deem all its legal-tender notes, bring ns of Itaelf to
apede resumption I la that wbat wo mean by spede
resiunption I
Secretarv Sherman — 1 mean by spede reenmptlon
not the payment of all these debts tn coin, but I mean
the eqnlvaieney of these United States notea with
coin, so that the people will take paper at par with
coin, and It they want the coin they can get it. I
do not suppose that i^l ont of 91tX) of greenbaeks
wiU be presented for redemption.
Mr. Bartiell — The national banks ar» elosa cor.
porations. aa I understand, and there Is a general
understanding between them on all qnestions affect-
ing their IntOTSsts, aa we find by their unanimity in
applying for a repeal of the bank tax.
Secretary Sherman— Mr. Chittenden here can tell
you that there are no people who have aueh dfrerae
views aa the national banka.
Mr. Hanzell— If It ahonld appear that the aafaty
and security, of these national banka demanded It,
could they not unite and get together such aeetiri.
tiea and present them to the Treaaury aa would drain
the Tresuay of all the gold that it haa, and thus ab-
aolntely prevent, by their combination, the Secretary
from carrying out the provlaiona of the Besumption
law!
Seeretary Sherman— I do not think, in tb* llrst
place, that they would attempt to make such a com-
ulnatlon against the Govemnment, and, in the sec-
ood plac^ I think that if they did It wonld be vsiy
easily mat. It ia not possible, with the amount of
lecal'teoder notea which they hold — admitted to be
about 970, 0(X>,(XK>— that they conid tak* the whole
of them and preaent them to the Treaanry. Such a
thing ia not possible, becaase tha banka eonld not be
brought into anything like a eoKiperatlon of tbiat
kind, nor could they keep np a contlimons stream of
demand on the Treaaury ; and then, beaidea, the
Treasury haa ampla power ao make tha banka rsdsam
their notes.
Mr. Ewing- In legal-tender note* I
f eeretary Sherman— Tes, In legal-tender not**.
* Mr. Ewing^-Or m silver and gold T
Seeretary Sherman— Yes, that wonld throw tbo
gold back on the Treasury- Some of the papers
thought that in my remarks the other day 1 threat-
ened the banks. Idld not threaten them, out there la
no doubt about it that the Treasury would b«
stronger than the banka in such a contest. Theio la
no danger that the national banka are going to com-
bine to preaent their legal-tender notes to the Treaa-
Tfae Chairman — It would be much more reaaonable
to suppose tbat the banks would agree among them-
selves that their obligations and operations would be
in currency, and that tbelr cheeks WQuM be paid In
eurreoCT rather tbsu tn gold.
Mr. Hartzell— Sapnos* that the depositor* in the
national banks should run in and demand payment
of their deposits ; wonld not the national bai^ be
bound to go under t
Secretary Sherman — ^Tbe banks ean pay their de-
podtora in greenbacks, because greenbsieks sre togal
tender.
Mr. Hartzell— How eonld they when there ai« only
about 9220.000,000 of them in dreolationi
Secretary Sherman — ^Then, If they cannot get them,
bow ean they preaent Ihem to na for redemption I
Mr. Ewing— They have 970,000,000 which they
ean preaent In a moment.
Secretary Sherman— How ean tboy bring 970,(XK),-

Hartsell's siniposition Is an impra^leable on* j flrat,
beeauae the banka could have no dealre to do auch a
thing, and. secondly, because It eonld not be dcme.
It wonld have to be a very alow operation, and with
a reserve of 9130,000,000 or 9140,000,000 even
that extreme danger could be met.

Mr. Ewing— But yon are at liberty to do ao. It

Rev. Dr. Bellows was next eaned npon. He found
hl|^ aaefalaaas tn po*te aad poetry, paid many
eompUmente to G«miaa thought and views of

One was on the vtews of politieisns regsidiilg dlpld-

sea, aad th* otbor wu In conaectloa with a •oloi^
oa Culylo't ^Sorter JtestntiM, which, tbe spssker said,
was tbs bast transtetlon of Otrtata thon^t In the
English language. Dr. Bellows ttanalated Banirr
Jftatnttu, "The Tailor Patched, " and asid
that America waa aending to Gemaay
a Taylor who wonld need . no patah.
Ex-Gov. Salomon waa tbe next apaaker. He was
fbnowad by W. D. Howells, whowa* reeeiyedwlth
load apptenae. Mr. Ivory Chamberlain waa called
upon, but did not reapoad. Bon. Samuel B. Rngglea
aaaerted that agrleultura te the baala of the fntute
BtiOBgth of tbo United Statea. In 1876, he
aaid, the eereate produced in this country, if

to eactrele tbe globe twice, aad a remnant wonld be
left long enongh to apan the Atlantic and Paetfie
Oeaana, and tbe tatarrantag United State* from
Hong Kong to IdverpooL Marie Twain waa then
called upon, bat ba merely apologiaed saying tbat be

tbaa to comidt tt to memory. Be poaaeaaed neither
Idea* nor language to apeak on the apur ot the mo-
ment. He woQla pay hia eompUmente to Mr. Taylor
aboard ahtp.
Judge Nook Davl* waa the next speaker. Ha ds-
elarad that It wa* hi* latoatlon ia tbe laontng to
enter hte aame aaiong ths muse* la order that at
aooie future time he might, In tbe language of Mra-
PardagtOB, beeome at least a "Minister to a

Walter flielpa In a bnmorons addreaa. Ber. Dr. Os-

npon tae front of tha 6*rmaa Maaenai, representing
G«naaaia. ia which appears a boat and a anmbor en
persons tending from it, and on the boat tbe name
'■MayHoirer." B* spoke In behalf of better ratetions
betweea tbe Black Foreat aad Plymontb Rook, and
aatd tbrt Mr. Taylor waa eminently fitted to bo the
Mediator. Bov. Dr. Hlteheoek was the last spciikar.
He said tbat the time waa comtng when
the teat gnn would be fired In Europe, and
when American influence wcnld be felt
around the globe. He eoanaeled Mr. Taylor to
stand np not only for (Ssrmany and Amarica bat for
all eoontrlea, but Intimated that In eaae of war the

Another Jew's daughter snd her ducsto have
been transferred to Cibristten hands. The strict
member ot the synagogue > don't like to see thte
eontlnnal transformation ot the daughters ot

they carry in their hands gitta "so rich and
rare "as those wUob a Bothschild ean com-
mand. Haiinfth do Bothschild, the wealthiest
daughter ot her race, te now Lady Bosebery.
It was remarked by a friend ot mine who vraa
present that the Jaws were only represented by
one prominent personage at the breakfast, and
he wu Baron Ferdinand Bothschild. The only
speech on the occasion was made by the Prince
of Wales, who proposed '* health and happiness
to the bride and bridegroom," to which Ijord
Bosebery briefly replied. Hy friend, who was
" behind the aeenes," telte me ot one Uttle pres-
ent which was made to the bridegroom that has
no mention in the long liste ot dtemonds, silver,
jewelry, and other treasures printed in the
newspapers. On the evening ot the wedding
Iioid Bosebery reeelyed a package from the
bride-elect- It eontained a sm&U gold bos, and in
aseparate enrelope a pretty gold key. Noletter
accompanied the gift, nor instructions of any
kind. My Lord, however, did not hesitate as to
tbe use of the key. He opened the box. It eon-
tained the last cheek which Hannah de Both-
schild would ever sign as a spinster. BeantifnUy
written in her own fair hand, it was drbwn in
tayor ot Lord Bosebery— $1,000,000, payable
to hte order.
Mr. Arthur TrendtU, who wiU be remem-

tained hte friends on the occasion of the pre-

ot the Freemasons' Tavern. The London con-

judging from eoxne of the art exhibita which I

be eminently creditable to the art progreisot

It may interest fashionable New-Tork to
know that London society has introduced
"attsmoon dances." Tbte addition to after-,
noon tea te so sueoeisfol in the idle world ot
fashion that it may be worth whUe to start it on
your side ot the Atlantic The Upper Ten have
deigned to invite a tew of the most respectable
representatiTes ot proteasionsl lite to these
sristootatic " high jinks" by daylight. " Eyen-
Ings" have long been made merry by the intro-
duction of Momus to Mayf air. ' As an example
of the latter, at the C!ountess ot CJhsrlemont's
"At Home" one night last week, Qeorge Qroa-
smith, ot the Opera Ckimiqne, snd TSi. Beer-
bohm, who te seekinK a theatrical engagement,
were among the mostconspieuotis ot tLe gnesta.
They sung and redted and made theinselves
generaUy useful. Oen. Tatentine Baker, was
there. This ex-English officer, since lite Tgrko -
Busalan eiploite. has beeome quite a lion in so-
ciety. One day last week he dined at tbe Duke
of tjutherland's, where he met Mr. Elnglske,
the btetoiian of the Crimean war, who congratu-
lated him upon hte splendid feat of saving
Suleiman Pasha's army. The Mariborongh
Club, which struck hte name off their rolls
when the (General waa sent to prison tor insult-
ing a young lady in a raUway earrtege, has re-
elected him. -Nomaneversnfferedpie&alttesso

no man could strive harder to redeem the past
than Oen. Valentlae Baker, once the most
brilliant cavalry officer in the Engliah -Army.
Fancy balte are to be a neoialty ot the torth-
eoming season. Already the oostamera of Lon-
don have received extendve orders. Mean-
while, society te talkliig about a taney matinee
in Fute which vraa attended by the Prince of
Wa^es, who iwent as Boblnson C!msoe, and
created a Uvely impression by the oonstant use
of hte nmbrella. The host and hostess iinper-
sonated a peasant eoupto, a middle-aged Jean-
etta and Jeaaot. Princess Amalia, eldest
daughter ot the said host and hostess, appeared
as Marguerite ; she wore a dress of gold
cloth embroidered with pearl daisies, with a
ruffle of gold lace round the top of ber corsage.
One of the moat effective dresses waa a
Diana in black satin covered with silver stars
and a napltua of erinuon silk over it, brade-

tor the Duke to flaunt in tbe face of hte olBoers
the seatimente ot hte wife. They woulda't
stand it it the Duke were 40 time* a Priaee

the DukeandDuohess at Malta that a Bussiaa
baas-singer at tbe opera there vras hissed.
The Duohees. to make up to him for tbte iadig-
' nity, has found tor him an engagement at the
Oreakchurehin London where she worships
when she is in the melan^oUs.
The Malta scandal, by the vray, te eoming out
yin drtbleta. I had to leave out the female in-
terest of the story in my last. Here it is. The
woman was Mrs. Bsar^ Scott-Stevenson, the
yoong vrife of the Lieutenant who horse-
whipped Mr. Honaon. It happened in thte wtee.
Mrs. Stevenson te pretty, aad Hr. Monson, the
Eqnery to the Duke of Edinbnrrii, teU in-love
with oer. I believe in high soctely yon may
fall in love with a married woman. It te not a
grare offense, it yon ate not found ont by the
faasbsnd and the lady te complaisant. Mrs.
Stevenson it seems only regarded the Equerys
passion as a mUd flirtation. Young and a court
lady, ehs liked admiration. There was no harm
in it. She thought noL Mr. ^Monson was not
discreet. He wrote letters to the lady. They
tell into the Li^iilenanf I hands. He challenged
theEquery. The Duke, saying that hte Equen**
honor was hte own, wanted to flght Lieut. Ste-
venson. Monson therefore did not come out.
The young Lieutenant did not, as a loyal aol-
dter, care to raise hte arm against the son of hte
Queen ; so he sallied forth, caught the gay Mon-
son and thrashed him. These are the broad
facts, brought cloae together, without dwelUng
on intervate of time, correspondents, and other
details. There haa been a court-martial, an of-
.flcial ln<iniry, a dtemissal of tbe Equery, a rein-
stating ot him, and a world of courtly, official,
BtKslal, domestic and fashionable worry about
the business. If there te not a duel or a divorce
yet to come, the parties ooneemed wiU consider
themselves fortunate. And aU because Monson
was fool enough to write love-letters to Mrs.
Stevenson.
In the clesth ot Mr. T. Hain Frtewell the
ladies have lost an author who worked hard in
their Interest Mr. FrisweU for many years
wrote the "Answers to (^rrespondente " in
the limul]/ Btrald, and Ptineh pays a tribute to
hte memory. Punch would have nothing to say
tp him while he waa alive. An Englteh author
has to die before hte confrlreg acknowledge hte
talent. FrisweU wrote a series of books called
Tht Omtte Iiife. When the ' Prince of
Wales was seriously iU one of these
semi-religious books by FrisweU was
the Princess* constant eompanion. I
was with FrisweU at Sampson Low's (hte pub-
lisher's) when the Princess sent for a new copy,
the old one being Uterany worn out. Hte
Bovaes tnth the I'nnU Off, Out and About,
Jbotet<p« to -Tbme, are among hte best works.
He projected and edited the " Bayard " series
of dasde and other stories snd essays, which
have attained considerable popularity. AU the
biographical notices of him which have ap-
peared exclude aU mention of ilodtrn Men of
Xettert BonetHy Critieimd, one of his latest and
best-written votumes. It was the subject of an
action for Ubel by Qeorge Augustus Sate, and
was withdrawn from pubUc&tion by the pub-
lishers, Hodder & Stoughton, who, with Fris-
weU, were east in damages. FrteweU came to
the conclusion that the best way to dteoonrage
the terrible waste of paper and print which
tdiaraeterized theage, was for competent critics
to speak out firmly and fuUy with an honesty
that would secure attention, and with a jutig-
ment that wonld carry conviction. He went for
Sate, and Sate returned the compliment in a
law court, which settled poor FrisweU and his
htmest criticism. The tew of Ubel te a ticklteh
business in England.
Prospective theatrical arrangemente include
the probsblUtv tbat the Queen, who has not
entered a theatre since the death of tbe Printse
Consort. wiU during the forthcoming season
resume her state and private vidts to the opera
and the theatres. It is said she intends
to honor '• Diplomacy " almost immediately.
Princess Beatrice went to the Prince ot Wales'
the other evening, as also did Lord Beaconv
field, who on making hte appearance was loudly
cheered by the audience. (^oU&iioration te be-
coming popnlar at last among Englteh authors.
The tetest partnership te that of Mr. Tom Tay-
lor and Paul Merritt, who have done two new
pieces: one ot them te in rehearsal at St.
James', and the other te to be pteyed at the
Olympic. Miss Emily Fowler bought a piece
called " NeU Gwynn " two years ago. It is by
W. G. Wilis. She U about to take a theatre at
which to produce it. Miss Fowler te a clever
comedy actress, and te not unknown to tame as
a manageress. The other night Mr. (George
Washington Moore and Howard Paul had an
tmrehearsed " scene " in Begent-street. Paul,
while walking quietiy home, waa at-
tacked by Moore, who' te under the
impression that Panl has written some-
thing against him in an American paper.
Moore demanded an ezpUnstion snd an apolo-
gy, and not getting it, caUed Panl some objec-
tionable names, for which Howard, who te a
man of peai^, promptiv summoned Moore to
appear at Marlborough Police Court. The ease
was to have been heard on Thursday ; but Moore
"had been there before," snd he took a quick
opporttmi^ to get a mutual friend to arran^
matters. Mr. Paul withdrew tiie summons, and
once more the current of friendship runs
smoothly along. Mr. Moore has been several
times before the magtetrate at Marlborougfa-
street, cMefly tor assaulta on cabmen. When
last he appeared there the Judge said that on
the next occasion he feared he should be com-
pelled to deprive the pubUc of the pleastire
of witnessing the performance of an important
member of the Moore and Burgess Minstrels.
Mr. G. W. Moore finds it, therefore, necessary
to be cautious in regard to that particular
court. In future he must not " let nte angry
pasdons rise "in the jurisdiction of Marlbor-
ough-street. It seems he te very jealous of his
reputation in the United Stste.i, and he reads
the papers irith care and attention. I need
hartlly teU you that the minstrels in which Mr.
Moore te ao great an attraction have become an
eatabltehed metropoUtan institution, and that
Moore A Burgess are the wealthiest " entertain-,
ers" in Qreat Britain outeide theatres and
operas. Mr. Howard Paul te leeturiug on
" Utah," in the course ot which he gives some
interesting sketches ot hte interviews with
the late Brigham Yoting. There te a talk of
the production of "Joseph Balsamo" on the
English stage in spite of the terrible and revolt-
lug Incident around which the story te buUt.
The great walkiing match finishes to-night.
The excitement te intense. Over lO.CMX) peo-
ple visited the Agricultural HaU last night.
There may be over 20,000 there thte evening.
The flght for the flrst and second prize te be-
tween O'Leary and Vaughan. O Leary has
headed the Chester man by a few mUes' from
the first nighfs cpntest, and O'Leary g^ed
thte start through the vulgar competition ot the
man Hazel, to whom I referred in my deaorip-
tion ot the opening. It may be< therefore, tbat
O'Leary will have causa to thank Hazel for
spurring him on in those eariy hours of the
contest. Making a rough caleotetion. it te es-
timated that on the flrst day O'Leary walked
117 mUes ; Vaughan, 102 ; on the aecond day
O'Leaty did 83, and Taughan 82 ; on the thircf,
O'Leary made 86, and on the fourth 88, to
Taoghaa'a 86 and 90. On Thuraday, at mid-
night, Vaugfaaa retired to rest, having walked

he was walking as ttashiy as i^hen he started.

who had departed from the nsoal method of praa^

Mr. Peek said that he was not able to answer that
aaestlon, and the Bishop said that If there were any .
Lethodist preachers who were preaeUag bereay,
ehazgea sbonld be preferred against then. Dz. Hen-
son persisted that it had been reported that such
cases did exist, and the Bishop replied tbat if Brother

to prefer ekaiges ag^nst the guilty PastoxBf aad not
entertain the Conference with vuth lemail:!. ^^th.
th« remark that if the Bishop gnd the PrenldtngKlden
were di^Kwed to let this matter pass, be wonld not
share the rafiponsibility. Dr. Henson sat down, and
tbe business of the Cotjierence proceeded. Rer. Mr.
Graves, of the Brooklyn District, was next called
npon for a report of tbe condition of the work In his
district. Ho said that considerable redactions la
church debts had been made during the year, among
wblch were the following: De Kalb-Avenoa, $1,000;
WarrenStreet, $2,000; PadfioStzect, $5,000.-

Avenue Congregational Church, and Ber. 'VFUliam
Ijawrenee to have gone over to tbe BMtlst denooii-

spirited debate followed the remark o/t ttie Bishop
that, in ease a preadier left tbe denominatfoa, it was
the bastneu of the Presiding Elder to mm that he re- .
tamed his narehment. When tbe nam* of J. L. HaU

bat BO action vas reached.

SENATE.
Mr. MoBBiLL, of Vermont, offered a resolation
chat a Select Committee be appointed to consider the
propriety of taking the tenth census of the United
States. Agreed to.
THK PACIFIO SAXLBOAO SIMEIKa »UND.
At the expiration of the morning hour, the Ball-
road Sinking Fund bill came up as the unfinished
business, and Mr. Matthxwb proceeded to answer
the siffumenta brought agi^nat the Ballroad Commit-
Ue's bilL He differed with Mr. Thurman on the
' proposition that the bill should pass because It was
unconstitutional, in order that there might be a judi-
cial decision on this ]>olnt Xo Senator had a right
to surrender his opinion, and if he believed ameasure
unconstitutional, he should vote accordiiiK to bis
tonvietion. He had been pained to hear Mr. Ed-
luunds rrfer to the friends of these great and power-
ful corporations being present on the floor, in the
lobbiea and la the galleries. Whatever ffraln of
reality there may be in all this. Senators should be
careful bow such insinoaiions are m^de nnlesa they
have speciflc charges to present. He next referred
to the remarks of Mr. CbristiaQcr, who said he
bad made what was not law appaar most
like law, and that he had, in citing
iiuthorities. stopped at the point where it suited his
riew. and omitted that which was ag^nst it. He bad
linca carefally reviewed the citations and had nocor-
rections to make. He argued that the fact the United
States was a creditor and legislatine for its own in-
terests was wboUy ImmateriaL The risbts of the
United States were precisely like the rights of any
other creditor, and the situation is the same as if
these rsUroad conopanies did not owe the United
States a dollar. The United States has the same
riffbt to legislate for the first mortgage bond-
holders, or would have for the second mort-
Sge bondholders, it they were in private
nds, as they have with the second mort-
rsge in the bands of the QoTemment. In this
AiscBaaiOQ, the case should be triable as thongh some
third party held the lien which the United States
now hold, and there should be no further extrtlon of
power or exercise of authority than if the debt rested
In possession of the Senator from Kentncky or any
other person, Mr. Matthews proceeded to examine
the conditions and restrictions cf tbe acts of 1862,
utd said there was a solemn stipnlatlon that the net
baminKS of the roads should not be touched until tbe
itockholdsrs had received a dividend of 10 per cent.,
and yet the bill of the Judiciary Committee
proposed to violate that solemn compact to
the extent of 25 per cent, of the net eaminss.
Tbe Government, he held, could not sue the roads
lor money to eo into a sinking fund, for there was
existing no right to do so, and the roads had a de-
tense thst they owed the Government nothing
under tbe contract. Now It was proposed to
take away that defense; that is what the
Senator from Vermont calls leflilslative jurls-
|>mdence ; he called it legislative Injustice,
jf Congress could ena-rt a law providing a^idnst a
itossible future Insolvency it conid pass a law requir-
loK every citizen to pay 25 per cent, of his income
into the Treasury to be distributed to his creditors
■n the event of his future bankruptcy. It was said
'hat it was not proposed to take any property, but
Duly the Income of the roads. Take away the profits,
tnd of what valae was the property. The bul pro-
posed to take property for private purposes; for, as
be had said before, tbe claim of the Government
was a private clsipi ; as much so as if any person had
:)een a party to the contract. At the conclusion of
lis remarks, Mr. Matthews said he would with-
toiw the bill of the Railroad Committee, which he
had offered as a substitute, in order that there might
be a direct vote on the Jadiciary Committee's bllL
Mr. Chaffee followed in advocacy of the substi-
tute for the pendius bill submitted by him yester-
day, a part of which proposes to compel the main
roads to adopt pro rata charges with the brancbea.
Mr. Thcbsiax contended that the Dill proposed by
Hr. Chaffee and the Railroad Committee's bill pro-
dded that the money due from the roads for tbe 5
;>er cent, of the net earnings and half the transporta-
tion should form a part of the sinkiuK fund, ana that
^e Government was required to pay interest on
money that was its own.
Mr. CoNKUNii ma<le issue with this proposition,
and in the course of his remarks snld he would not
vote for a bUl thatbe would not have voted for if the
party had not been a corporation. He would not do
a thing to-day with these corporations that he would
not do to-morrow with the greatest favorite
of the Senate. He would never give a vote
prompted or incited by the fact that the
rorporatlons had made, and not lost, money.
He had heard statements here, over and over again,
of the profits they had made and the dividends
divided. Were they to withhold any modicum of
Justice because profits and not losses had followed
them I He favored a proposition that would promote
the interests of the corporations. If, at the same
time, the interests of the Government were pro-
tected. It was, he said, proposed now to pass a new
!aw after the two houses had agreed to submit It to
;he arbitration of the courts. Mr. Conkling said he
had been drawn into the discussion against his inten-
tion, but he would say that he would enunct&ta s'uch
sentiments and petrify them into law when It was
ascertained that there was no milder means without
departine so far from ancient ways to secure the
Oovemmeut against further posslhle loss.
Mr. TuUB^iAX said he would, when he could ob-
tain .the fioor without taking tbe time of the Sena-
tor from Colorado, trv and explain so that even tbe
Senator from New- York, who seemed to know noth-
ing about it, could understand it.
Mr. Chaffxe then concluded his rtmarki upon
the pending portion of the bilL
Mr. Thubman, in reply to questions by Messrs.
Whyte and Blaine, proceeded to argue that the right
to altar and amend reserved in the acts was valid
and operative at this time ; that the decision of the
Supreme Court applied to the law as it stood at the
time the decision wns rendered, and that it had no
bearing upon a law that might thereafter be enacted.
Mr. Blaixe asked at what point the power to
amend stopped, in tbe opinion of the Senator.
Mr. Tuvb^iax said he would not stand here to an-
swer hypothetical questions. Life wastooshott to
stand up here ana be eatecbized like the ancient
dlaleetlciana, ready to answer all and any questions
that might be presented. He was a plain, practical
man to defend a measure he had introdaced. He
would put a question to the Senator from Maine, and
be eould take until to-morrow to answer It. IMd he
deny the right of Congress to require these corpora-
tions to provide a sinking fund to meet their obliga-
tions to the Government 7 The Supreme Court had.
h» said, at this session, and while they liad been
talking about it, decided that tliis reserved right to
amend was voted in a case where tbe Leelslatur* of
hia own State had, under this reserved right, reduced
tbe rates on a railroad one-tbird.
Mr. HxT.r- said the distinction which he insisted
upon was the contract of the corporation and tbe
fcnbeequent contract on which there was a considera-
tion, and this principle, he claimed, had been settled
In thaSuprema Court, in the ease of Miller against
the State of New-York. ,_ ,.
In reply to a question from Mr. Keman, he said
there was no le^lative power to compel a railroad
to pay Us debu. The radlroad was not incorporatad
to pay its debts, but to carry freight and passengers.
Tbe courts were tbe proper authorities to eompel it.
to nay its debts. , „
At6 o'clock P. M., on motion of Mr. Hill, the
Sanate adjouzned tUl to-morrow. •
BOUSE OF KEPBSSEirrATIVSS. ^
Mr. Butler, of Mas3acbnaett9,> Introduced a
bill to supply a convenient currency with wiiieh the
minor business transactions of the people may be

and 50 cents fractional currency, and that any per-
son payin« into the Treasury l^nl-tandar notes or

-=l FATAL FOOT-BALL MATCH,
TH£ RESULT OP DBIBBLIKG— WAS IT A PAIR
OB A rem. BLOW f— BEGOUMBKDATIOK
OP THE JURY AND BEICABES OP THE
JXTDGK.
In a foot-ball mateh at Ashby-de-la-Zonch on
on the 28th of February last, a game of foot-ball
was in progress in which William Bradshaw, Jr..
was on one side and Herbert Poekerty on the other.
At one part of the game Dockerty caught the ball
and b^an what is known as " dribbling "—that Is,
kicking the ball short distances and following it up.
While dribbUmt, Bradshaw ran toward Dockerty to
charge him. Seeing BraOsh^w approaching Dock-
erty kicked the ball past Bradahaw, but notwith-
standing this the latter continaed his charge, and
leaped upon Dockerty wltli his knee protruding very
mucii. hia knee cstehlng Dockerty In the stomach,
and throwinc him violently to the ground. Dock-
erty was taten %ome, and when he knew he was
dying he said, " Forgive Bradshaw, as I have done;
he has done you a great wrong." Dockerty expired
the next day from tne effects of the charge.
Snbsequently, Bradshaw was accuMd at the
I/eicester Assizes with ' ' feloniously killing and slav-
ing" Dockerty. There waa a good deal of conflict In
the evidence as to whether the charge was fair or
not. The Judge, In summing up, said there was no
doubt that the deseased was Hilled by the defend&nt;
but on the other hand. It was said he was killed, so
to speak, in accordanca with the laws of foot-ball,
while, on the other hand, it was said it was a foul
blow. Persons certainly eould not be allowed to
make laws whereby it should be allowable for one
man to strike another in a way to imperil his
life. In the present ease they had to dedde
whether the act of the defendjuit was malicious
or merely a misfortune. The jury returned a
verdict of not guilty, and tbe defendant was
discharged. CommenUnK on the acquittal of
the prisoner, the Pall MaU QarBtU of March 21
says: '* This, perhaps, wns to have been expected;
especially after Lord Justice Bramwell's having, no
doubt very properly, told the jury tliat * it would ba
safer to consider,' in spite of some evidence to 4he
contrary, that the prisoner was playing in aoecnd-
ance with the rules of the game. Sox although, as
his Liordship observed, ^no rules of practice of any
game conld make that lawful which was ooutrury to
tbe law of tha land,' yet. on the other hand, *it a
player is observing tb« laws of a game and not going
neyond them, it may be reasonAOle to Infer that he
is not actintf with an Intention to hurt, or in a man-
ner which he knows will be likely to be productive
of death or Injury.' Acting on the spirit of these
directions, the Jury returned e verdict of not guilty,
and at the same time suggested s recommendation that
the lawB of foot-ball should be altered. Lord Justice
Bramwell, however, showed some dlffldance about
recommend] uftithe alter&tion. ' I hardly think, * hesaid,
* that I am the person from whom such a recommen-
dation should come. I have never piays4 foot-hall,
and am not now likely to do so.' But surely the
very impartiality of tlio position which he thus oc-
cupies pre-eminently flts him for an adviser ; and he
might safely, perhaps, have made a less guai^ed sug-
gestion that ' it would be as well even for yonns:
men to try to make these accidents as little likely to
occur as possible.' It should be remembered that
the acquittal of a player upon a charge of this kind
is the condemnation of the game. If he played, as
the jury ^d that he did, according to the association
rules, so much the worse for those rules. It appears
from this ease that under those regulations a plaver.
In order to 'charge down' another player^ kick,
may lea[> Into tbe air and descend upon the other
player with such force aa to cause mortal internal
injury." ^^^^

From the PkUadMpkia Ptub, AprU 4.
The two letters subjoined were written, one
of them nearly nine and the other nearly 10 years
ago, to J. H. Puleston. Esq., member of the British
Parliament from the borongh of Devon, by Hon.
George 6. Boutweli, late Secretary of the Treasury
of the United States, and Hon. John Sbennan, hia
snecessor. Mr. Puleston consented to tdelr publica-
tion, when asked by our £nrdp«an correspondent,
because they reflect much credit upon Messrs. Bout*
well and Sherman, and because they read like pro-
phetic warnings in tbe light of recent events:
VMITXO StATKS SSNATK CaAHBXB, \
Washington. Dec. 21, 1868. j
Dbak Sib : I would frankly answer your Inquiries
if I could do so. but there is great uncertainty as to
what either Senate or Uouse will do. I Imow wliat I
would do, and that is resolutely to force the question
of specie payments. It is the first primary step to
regular business and prosperity. The mode ot doing
it with me is plain. I would allow the greenbacks
to be converted Into a 5 per cent, bond, set apart In
sums of 140 mills in gold, to reduce the debt i then
authorize and encourage contracts in gold, and allow
old and new banks to start freely on a koM basis, and
lasue gold notes. With them and otheraids we would
get back to specie pavments without a crash. It will
pincA awhile, but tnat Is unavoidable. I do not
think it a good time to go into debt. Very truly
yonn. JOHN SHEBMAH.
To J. H. PuiJESTOsr, Esq.
TBXAsrB7 DiPABTMiHT, May 21. 1869.
Bkab Sis : I shall be glad to hear from you, and
espedaUy with reference to tbe prospect of a new
loan at 4^ per cent., say 20 veers to run, interest
payable In London or Frankfort, and principal pay-
able in this country, to be Issued in Muhasca for
5-20 bonds. Of course I cannot see what the poUey
of Oongreas may be. but it is reasonable to expeet
that they will be anxious to secure an exchange of
the existing loan for one at a lower rate of interest.
With the Improvement of our credit and the eer>
tainty that th« public debt is to be paid within a
reasonable period of time, there can oe no doubt
of tbe advantage which such a loan will offer to
the holders of onx present aeearittes. Yoors, Aw.,

Mrs. Tom Bi-jon waa committed in default of
9300 bail at the T<Hnoi Police Court yesterday to
answer a charge of assault made aeainst her by
Frederick H. Lyon, of No. 81 Liberty-street. The
defendant stated that the complainant had Insulted
her, and a Police Officer not bemgpreaent, she struck
him on the back with her cane.
Tbe injunction proceeding against James C.
Duff, to prevent overeros^ing at Booth's Theatre,
was yesterday adjoomedby Judge Daniels, in Su-
preme Court, Chembera, to Monday next, Mr. DuflTs
counsel stlpularing that the law diould not be vio-
lated in the meantime. This really ends the pro-
ceeding, as Mr. Duff's lease expires on Saturday.
Dominick Bannlon, Bdward MoGuire, and
Martin Diskan, who were jointly indicted for man*
slaughter, were acquitted by Judge Daniels, In the
Court of Oyer and Terminer, yesterday. The men
were accused of kicking Jeremiah Lane to death, at
No. 41 Washington-street, pn Oct 4, 1876. There
was virtually no evidence against the accused.
The jury In the case Hirahfeld & Btein
agalnst.Bamey, CoUeetor, in the United States Cir-
cuit Conrt, before Judge Wallace, yesterday ren-
dered a verdict for the defendant. This waa a ease
in which plaintiffs sought to recover back duties
claimed to have been paid in excess on an Importa-
tion of plush, which thev claimed waa liable as
velvet.
Jndgs Daniels, in Sapreme Coart, Chambers.
yesterday granted an order reqiiiring the Police Com-
missioners to show causa to-day why they should not
be punished for their contempt in refusing, as aT-
leeed, to make a supplemental return to the
writ of certiorari obtained br Mark Haggerty. The
latter was a roundsman, ana was removed by the
Commissioners. He is now seeking to be reinstated.
The sisters of the late William B.^H7ne8,
^^nst whom Judgment was had in an ejectment
suit brought bv Mary Eliza Hynes, Mr. Hynes' wife,
have appealed from the judgment to the Qeneral
Term of the COurt of Common Pleas. In this action
the jury found that Mrs. - Hynes was legally married
to Mr. Hynes. and that the children of the former
are legitimate. Chief-Justice Daly yesterday fixed
the amount of the bond on appeal at 925,000.
The trial of the suit of Joseph and William
C Spears against the City, John Mathews, and
Exeklel R. Thompson was begun before Judge Van
'VoTst, in the Sapreme Court. Special Term, yester-
day. The plalntilfs are seeking to recover 912.262
and interest on an award in the first Broadway

very Intrieata. The City claims It has paid the
award, in accordance with the deoiaion ot the aecond
set of Commissioners. The case is stlU on.
The trial of the case of Bei^amin P. Fairchild
against Teresa Lynch was begun before Judge Speir,
in Part 11. of the Superior Cour^ yesterdav. The
suit is brought to recover about 95-OOOon a judg-
ment for deficiency arising on the sale of mortgaged
premises under foreclosure. In answer, tbe defend-
ant says she was deceived by the plaintiffs agents
Intobuying a house of bad repute in 1873 at a higher
price than she bad agreed to pay for it ; that the deed
was never shown to her until after It had been re-
corded, and thst she never agreed to assume the pay-
ment of the mortgage on it, which was foreclosed.
The case is still on trlaL
TAfl/JlACJB IN JUDICIAL DECISIONS.
A direct Tariance of judicial oplnd^ seems to
have arisen on a very material and important ques-
tion in regard to the new Code. It was held by Judge
Lawrence, in the Supreme Coon, some time since, in
the case of the BoweryNntliuial Bank against Duryee,
that where tha cause of arrest is extrinslo to the
cause of action, It must be stated in the complaint in
order to uphold an order of arrest, .fudge Lawrence
put his decision on tha broad ground that a man was
as much entitled to a jury trisl when
hia liberty is at stake as when only a claim
for damages is at issue. Judge McAdam, in the
Marine Court, and a Judge of the Supreme Court In
the second department held the contrary. The ques-
tion was again presented to tbe court In the suit of
Darid Tfaomson and another, as Executors, against
Lesser Friedberg. a decision in which was given by
Judge Daniels, in Supreme Court, Chambers, yes-
terday. In tbe opinion the case Is thus presenteu:
"The affidavits, tJ^en together, support the conclu-
sion on which the order of arrest was made, that
the defendant had removed or secreted his property
with the intent to defraud his creditors. When the
arrest proceeds upon Uiat fact, It is extrinsic of the
cause of action, and not to be statad in the com-
plaint. That rule of practice has become perfectly
well settled at' the present time. The order of
aivest should have been subscribed by the plaintiff's
attorney. (Code, sections 561 and 562.) Tbe stat-
ute upon this subject is Imperative, and it has not
been complied with in this ease. The surety in the
undertaking shoold also have sworn that he was
worth the amount spedfled in the affidavit exclusive
of property exempt from levy and sale under an ex-
ecution. " For these defects Che order ef arrest is set
aside, unless the order of arrest is subscribed by the
pl^ntifTs attorney within five days, and a ropy deliv-
ered to the defendant or bis attorney, and a proper
affidavit attached to the undertaking.

SIRING SMALL BOYS TO PICK POCKETS,
As Miss Ella B. RuUer, of No. 609 Madison-
avomna, was walking through Sixtieth-street with her
two sisters, on March 22, a youth snatched her
pocket-book, eontaining 9106, and ran off. The
lady asked a young man who was walkini; behind her
to puisue the th»f, and he did so, but instead of
eatehtngthe fugitive assisted him over tbe wall into
Cantr^Park. Miss Butter immediately went to the
Twenty*eighth Preeinot Station-house and gave a de-
scription of the thief, which resulted in the arrest of
John Hartel. a boy of 13, living at One Hundred and
Eleventh-street, near Third-avenue.. The pris-
oner was recognized by Miss Butter as the
boy who had snatebed her poeket-boolc, and he frank-
ly admitted ^e fact, statinig in addition thst he bad
dirided the money with Otto Oswald, of No. 18
Stantou-street the young man who had aided him to
escape. The latter, it was MUbseqnently learned,
had just served a term in the State Prison, and made
a piactloe of angsglng small boys to pick ladies'
pockets. When the piekpockets were called up for
trial by Assistant DUtrict Attorney Bell, In General
Sessions yesterday, both pleaded guilty. Judge
SutherUnd sent Oswald to the State Prison for two
years and six months, and eommltted Hartel to tbe
House of Befuge.

HOW EEPUBLIVAN RULE PATS.
The Philadelphia Press of the 3d inst says :
"When Gtov. BIgler retired from tbe Quberaatorial
ehabr — ^the last of an unbroken line of Democratic
Governors reaching from 1823, the Administration
of William F. Johnston only excepted— he left to the
State a debt of $41,000,000. Before the time of
Gov. Pollock Pennsylvania had elected but two Gov-
ernors who were not Democrats — Gov. Johnston,
first mentioned, and in 1820. Gov. Hlester, a Feder-
alist. We may safely charge our burden of State
debt to Democratic admiuistratidu. &;ince the advent
of Whig and Republican administrations tbe debt
has been st«adUy on the decrease, so that now,
alter having borne the terrible strain of war, ^it has
been brought down to within $23,OOOtOOO. Our ex-
traordinary war expenses alone amounted to f ti.OOO,-
000. and tneso have bf^en taken into this aceoimt.
In the face of all this tha personal taxes have been
reduced and the tax on real estate removed entirely.
The farmer and small owner now pays not one cent
land-tax in Pennsylvania. This Is one plank In our
platform in the coming campnign, and the strongest
purely State issue everpresented to the people. Our-
fin, G«ary, and Eartranft, tiiis line of Bepnbltoan
Governors have done this, and the safe coarse is to
condnue the succession."

The Dnttdu Betra-ZtUung U by no means
Inclined to agree with Str Garnet Wol&eley i^ prais-
ing the "five yesia' rule" In force IntheEogUih
Army. Sir Garnet, (the German paper remarhi,) in
bis uilde on the military power of France, points
ont ^at tbe regulation that every eommu|^ from
that of a division down to that of a battaUflf shall
be fai^d for five years only ts a very aarantageass
one for the aerviiae, since it insares that if by chance
an inefficient or incapable officer should succeed to
a command, he will, at all eventa, be got rid of at the
end of five years, and the result must be that both in
bodily and Intelleotnal qaaliileatioQs the English
officer will be saperlor to those of other nations.
The BetrttZtiamg, however, will not allow that
this is The case. In the fiiet place it maintains very
great wre is taken in the Oennan Army that no tin-
fit, or In aayway inefficient, officer shall ever obtain
a hUlT eonznana, and ahoold an officer, after socceed.
Ingtoahifher appointment, become careleaa or In-
diserent. ^ lose fals energy either of mind or body,

The Signal Service Bureau report indicates
yor to-day, in the Middle Atlantic States,

temperature, and rising, preceded in north-
east portions, by falling barometer.
/ Three days of debate have been neces-
sary to prepare the minds of the Democrats
of the House for the final sacrifice of Door-
^eper Polk. Yesterday, after a long and
aonmonioas discussion, the oifice was de-
clared vacant, and the places that knew
Polk will know him no more. The over-
sight of the patronage heretofore lodged in
the ofBce of Boor-keeper is temporarily
transferred to that of the SerKeant-at-Arms
of the House. This is a lame and impo-
tent conclnsion of the whole matter. The
majority in the House have put two men,
one after another, into the Door-keeper's
ofSce. Now, as if in sheer despair, they
turn out the latest incumbent and sit down
and wonder what they shall do next.
Polk is out, but nobodv else is in ; and it is
a question whether the ofiSce will be abol-
ished or whether the party will try again
tn manage it so that there shall be no more
^egs than holes. Since Col. Polk, (who
has been more sinned against than sinning,)
is fairly out of office, he can afford to
cleanse his stuffed bosom of the perilous se-
crets which relate to the iuner management
of the House of Democratic Representa-
Uves. Doubtless, it would be a diverting ex-
position of the incapacity of the Demo-
eratio Party to administer one of the minor
brunches of the public service.
/ The British people are just having a slight
{foretaste of t^e cost of protecting their
" interests " in the Orient against Russian
aggression. Instead of going into the next
fiscal year with a surplus of $4,300,000, as
they would have done but for the war ex-
citement, they have a deficit of $11,300,-
©00 at the present moment, and the pros-
pect at the close of the year of one of $29,-
000,000. This will be raised by an in-
crease of two pence in the pound on the in-
come tax, four pence the pound on tobacco,
and of $500,000 in the dog tax. This
is not a formidable burden of tax-
Btion, bat it comes at a moment
of intense commercial stagnation, when
the country is adjusting painfolly the losses
incident to great over-trading, and to the
extraordinary conversion of available capi-
tal into fixed or unavailable forms. Nor
wiD this be the only sacrifice which the
British people will be compelled to make,
ahonld war ensue. Entirely apart from their
£rect expenses, they would be likely to lose
something of the commanding position
irhiah they now hold, both as to trade and
manufactures and as carriers of freights.
An interesting meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was held yesterday, at which the
two subjects of most importance were the
milroad combination and the French com-
mercial treaty. The chamber was informed
by Mr. Charles 8. Smith that he had the
assurance that the Mayor would sign the
ordinance permitting the steam railroads to
use the Belt Railway tracks at night. On
the strength of this, a resolution was
adopted declaring that the New- York
Central and Erie Roads should now with-
draw from the combination which requires
higher rates to and from New- York than
are asked of competing cities — a position
which it would be hard to dispute. M.
Leon Chotteau addressed the chamber in
a very clear Mid sensibfe speech regarding
the movement for a reciprocity treaty with
France. He declared that the concessions
- wiiich America might demand of France
need not seriously disturb any one ; that
tfiey would be gladly granted. He had
come simply to ask ns to a public discussion
at Paris. This is certainly a very temper-
ate demand, and there will be very ex-
ceptional advantages at Paris this year for
an intelligent and mutoallr profitable dis-
Dnring an interval of reckless honesty,
^sterday, the House Committee on Elec-
tions dismissed the case of McDonnell
(Democrat) against Williams, the Republi-
can member from Oregon, Mr. Williams
keeps his seat, and the Democrats have ac-
tually given up one vote which they might
have had if they had been as bold as they
were in the Dean case. But, as if in «
spasm of repentance over this concession to
justice, it was next decided that the Repub-
lican contestant for the seat of Chalmers,
Democratje Representative from Missisgippi,
had no ease. Altogether, eleven of the
seventeen contests in the House have been
ilUposedof. There is yet ehanoe enough
lor the Democrats to recover from their un-
expected and quite unprecedented extrava-
gance in the matter of fairness.
TheretoMOf the two Roumanian envoys
tent to London and Vienna, with the new«
fbat botliEiitf«nd and Austria am sppotedto
haa given an nniniatakable ctinitilas to the
growing anti-Rosrian feeling of the Princi-
pality ; but even this open support does not
fully account for the recent acts of the Cab-
inet of Buebarest The objection of a small
and embarrassed State to have the lines of
communication upon which hermost lucrative
traffic depends blocked for an indefinite time
by the passage of a foreign Army is intel-
ligible enough ; but when we find her actu-
ally refusing stores and material to a Gtov-
emment able and willing to pay a high price
for both, we cannot but suspect that a se-
cret influence from Berlin is impelling the
lesser Hohenzollem to do the will of the
greater. Should this be so, it proves that
•Germany's friendship for her " ally" has a
limit, and that beyond that limit the latter
must not attempt to pass. The reported
movement of Russian troops in the direction
of Oiurgevo is probably a canard, as
any present attempt to coerce a State which
commands all Russia's lines of communica-
tion would be sheer insanity, especially
now that Austria's approval of the English
circular is an established fact. The Daily
Telegraph's statement that M. TisZA has de-
clared himself unable to answer for the
Hungarian Parliament in the event of Aus-
tria's opposing the British policy, savors
strongly of invention, when contrasted with
the same statesman's pacific utterances two
days ago; but the speedy return of Gen.
loNATlEFP to the scene of his supposed
"failure " sufficiently shows that, whatever
Austria's intentions may be, Russia is' far
from considering them as perfectly friendly.

The New-Jersey House of Representatives
yesterday passed a bill to prohibit the manu-
facture of boots and shoes in the State
Prison at Trenton. This is .a yielding to a
demand similar to that made upon the New-
York Legislature, but which was summarily
refused. The communistic theory is that
the classes of men permitted to work should
be redused in number as far as possible.
The odious phrase, " convict labor," has
been used in more than one instance to
prejudice sober-minded people against Ihe
employment of the inmates of p^sons in
any productive industry. The Trenton
Prison usually contains about SOO men and
boys. Those who are not employed in the
work needed for the administration of the
internal economy of the institution can be
kept at work in the shoe shops, the only
manufacturing branch of the prison. These
abolished, the blatant friends of the work-
ing man can exult over the abolition of
"convict labor." But the result upon the
vast body of prisoners, depraved and idle,
will.certainly be calamitous.
THE
TEE PACIFIC RAILBOADS IN
SENATE.
If character, capacity, and intelligence
still retain weight in the Senate, there can
be little doubt as to its final action in regard
to the indebtedness of the Pacific Railroads.
All these qualities are arrayed in support of
the Judiciary Committee's bill. The special
pleading of Mr. Matthews and the eccen-
tric utterances of Mr. Hill are literally
buried beneath the judgments of the best
constitutional lawyers. Party differences
are forgotten in the discussion of the prin-
ciples wheh underlie the propositions of the
Thurman bill. The Republican Educxds
and the Democratic Thubman, the judicial
Davis and the Independent Booth, are
types of the varying shades of opinion which
are for once in unison. The right of Con-
gress to enact a measure compelling the
companies to provide for the dis-
charge of fast-accnmulating obligations
is as manifest as the Treasury's need
of the protection sought. The mas-
terly argument of Mr. Davis would be
conclusive as to the right which it is pro-
posed to exercise, if there were no other
foundation for it than the broad grounds of
equity and public interest. But as he and
Mr. Edmuxds have both plainly shown, the
right inheres in the acts on which the com-
panies rest, — under the first act condition-
ally, under the second unconditionally; and
Messrs. Matthews and Hill simply play
the parts of the companies' attorneys when
they assail as an invasion of vested privi-
-ieges the exercise of the power thus clearly
reserved. So far as debate is concerned,
the legal aspects of the subject are disposed
of. The strong men of the Senate are all
on one side.
The expediency of the creation of a sink-
ing fund is not in dispute. Upon this point
the companies concede all that is required.
Their practice has not harmonized with
their professions or the action of Congress
would have been anticipated long ago. The
controverted point relates to their firanoial
ability. Are they able to carry the burden
which the Judiciary Committee proposes to
fasten upon them t On their own showing,
yes. There may be some reason for object-
ing to the exaction of a relatively heavier
contribution from the Central than from the
Union Pacific ; but, with no other informa-
tion than that supplied in their own state-
ments, it is fair to conclude that the two cor-
porations may be made to pay two millions
annually — one million each — withont detri-
ment to their efficiency, without injustice to
other creditors, and without entailing the
slightest hardship upon the stockholders.
It is childish, then, to speak of this feature
of the measnre as unjust. Not one of its
supporters has said aught that can be con-
strued into a disposition to injure the
properties, to impair their other obligations,
or to look too closely into the extent to
which the stock represents invested capital.
A creditable spirit of fair play is also
manifest in the consideration accorded to
objections not intended to frustrate the
whole plan. The amendment announced
by Mr. Thurman, making the first mort-
gage bonds of the companies available as
securities for the sinking fund, tends to an
enhancement of their credit. The criticism
of Mr. Dawes, directed against sinking
funds generally, is not undeserved. Such
funds are always a temptation, and their
sanctity has not commended itself to mod-
em financiers. Obviously, however, the
fund is safer in the custody of the Govern-
ment than in the hands of railroad mana-
gers ; and Mr. Da'WES has the opportunity of
perfecting the method devised by the Ju-
diciary Committee for the attainment of this
end. Mr. Blains's suggestion, pointing to
the finality of any measnre that may be now
enacted, it is not unreasonable, and we
are glad thatMr. Edmunds responds to it with
an amendment designed to render the pend-
ing' bill a final exercise of Congressional
authority so long as the companies faith-
JLIbUt aoaal* with ita xeoniramanta. The
companies are entitled to aome KOaiantee
against perpetual interference. They might
well consent to terms at first unpalatable if
they could be assured that the agreement
arrived at would be allowed to stand. Mr.
Edmunds' amendment will secure to them
so much. More than this could not i>e
safely granted. For though the companies
and their affairs have year after year occu-
pied the attention of Congress, we must re-
member that the fault has been mainly with
themselves. Had they employed in behalf
of a just settlement a tithe of the energy
which has been expended in resistance to
any' settlement not of their own making,
Mr. Blaine would have had no cause of
conlplaint. And the influences which have
kept the controversy open render inexpe-
dient any. but the conditional guarantee
which Mr. Edmunds' amendment affords.
The companies may by good faith avert
further trouble.
It is marvelous that even now their saga-
city is completely at fault. The signs of
the times have beeu read to little purpose
if they imagine that an opposition engi-
neered by Mr. Jay Gould can withstand the
demand for an equitable adjustment of their
debt to the Government. The solid busi-
ness men who direct the affairs of the Cen-
tral Pacific might have been expected to
pursue a wiser course. There is no disposi-
tion to press harshly upon them, as the tone
of the supporters of the Thurman bill has
proved ; and instead of resisting the meas-
ure in its entirety they should have sought
its modification in particulars, without
lessening its general effect. Mr. Blaine
offers a suggestion and it is ac-
cepted. Mr. Dawes, to be practical,
should have supplemented his criticism
of the bill with hints for its improvement.
Through channels like these, the Central
.Pacific, if it really desire to be absolved
from the responsibility which participation
in Mr. Jay Gould's tactics involves, should
have submitted proposals for changes on
their merits. As the case stands, the issue
is between the Treasury and the notorious
stock-gambler who administers the concerns
of the Union Pacific. And whatever room
might exist for difference of opinion on
other points, there can be none as to the
shameless means he employs to prevent sat-
isfactory legislation.
Mr. EoMiTNDS has alluded to the possibil-
ity of an inqu'ry that shall drag to view the
secrets of the lobby which under Mr.
Gould's guidance outrages the proprieties
of the Senate chamber and uses ^orruptly
money that should be applied to the pay-
ment of debts. We hope that the investi-
gation, if undertaken at all, will have
a wider range than that indicated by Mr.
Edmunds. Newspapers that sell editorial
space are small game. The mysteries of
the lobby will be incomplete without the
mysteries of that Railroad Committee room
where Senators sit to do Mr. Jay Gould's
bidding, and where other Senators, under
the pretense of courtesy, indirectly aid his
plans. If Mr. EoMtrNDS will carry out the
search he proposes to institute with the
rigor and tenacity- of which he is capable,
the information acq.uired will shed light
upon much more than Mr. Gould and his
lobby. It will expose the secrets of the
Railroad Ring that exists within the Senate,
and is the source of schemes which dis-
grace that body.
IMMIGJIATIOX AND DEVELOPMENT.
The arrival of a large party of German
emigrants some weeks in advance of the
regular season can scarcely be accepted as
an indication of a renewal of that vast in-
dustrial stream which for four years has
ceased to flow in this direction. That the
tide which during that period has flowed
from this country will in due season return,
few are prepared to dispute. The "re-
turned emigrant" rarely settles down per-
manently in the Old World unless he take
the wealth that reconciles him to the in-
vidious social distinctions which he has
learned to regard as intolerable. The effort
to reconcile himself to an order of things
so different from that to which he
had become accustomed is more than
he can maintain ; and he once
more turns his face westward whenever the
opportunity occurs. If there were no other
reason to explain the coming back of for-
eign-bom people who left these shores
under the stress of business panic, this
would be enough. But in~the present in-
stance other causes will slowly but surely
operate. The great majority of those who
went with the expectation of finding ready
and remunerative employment, have been
disappointed. The depression they hoped
to escape from followed them quickly, and,
except in the particular branches of indus-
trytowhiehwar preparations have imparted
activity, the struggle of labor for bread is
as severe and dispiriting in England or Ger-
many as it was in our large cities during the
dark days from which we are emerging.
There is, moreover, one difference in our
favor, which the workman who has lived
here is not liMiy to overlook : this country
has the essential conditions of recovery in
a degree unknown in Europe. It is certarin,
therefore, that an old process will be re-
peated as soon as improvement on this side
of the Atlantic becomes apparent. Thou-
sands who hurried to the land of their birth
with hopes that have proved delusive will
return hither ; and with this incident will
begin the renewal of the general immigra-
tion on a scale, probably, not much inferior
to that which prevailed during the Spring
and Summer of 1873.
There is a certain kind of immigration,
however, which never should have been
suspended, and which might be stimulated
now with decided advantage to all con-
cerned. We refer to those who come with
the view of working or purchasing farms,
as distinguished from those who come sim-
ply as wage-earners. Large additions to
the latter class are at present undesirable.
Of the former class we cannot have too
many, provided the representations used to
bring them are within the truth. The fact
is unquestionable, that as a result of the
agencies employed by land-grant cor-
porations, organized immigratioa was in
progress, in 1873, on a scale previously
unknown. The emigrants were of a better
sort, — speaking, of course, with reference
to their capacity for cultivating land in re-
mote districts, where mere laborers would
not be able to live. For the stoppage of
this kind oi immigration there was nevv
any other reason thad that arising from
general distrust and the sadden cessation
of efforts to promote the movement. In-
deed, omiaranta nossassed of mansiT have
had, and still have, the strongest pocrible
indseements. The relatively low prices
of cultivated farms, the exceptionally fa-
vorable terms upon which land may be
acquired from Western railroad corpora-
tions, the cheapness of labor and of every-
thing that enters into the worMngof a farm,
are so many attractions to foreigners who
have thought at all of emigration as a means
of bettering their condition. Their money
would buy for them now more than double
that which it would have procured prior to
the dismal September of 1873, and more
than it will buy when better times make
themselves felt throughout the country.
But the machinery which set systematic
emigration in motion has been abandoned ;
the companies that supplied it have been
more or less discredited ; and there is mean-
while a want of confidence, not inexcusa-
ble on tie part of persons on the other side
of the Atlantic, that will prevent their
timely use of the opportunities now afforded.
It is satisfactory to know that this timidi-
ty is not shared by numbers of our own
people. Of immigration we have very
little. The migration that has gone on dur-
ing the last two or three years has been
conducted quietly — so quietly that in many
instances it has been unobserved — but to
an extent that is without precedent. Re-
ports from States and Territories tvest of
the Mississippi are conclusive upon this
point. One railroad company, running in
high latitudes, has in five months sold
nearly 500,000 acres, the greater portion
for actual cultivation. The wheat farms
that have been opened in the Red River
Valley are among the agricultural marvels
of the time, whether considered with refer-
ence to their magnitude or the profitable-
ness of their crops. The general work of
settlement is scarcely less surprising. What
is tru^ of North-western Minnesota and
North-eastern Dakota is hardly less true of
lands adjacent to other land-grant railroads.
The cun-ent of population into Southern
Kansas is as suggestive as that into Dakota.
Now these changes have been Wrought
by persons, moving from other parts
of the United States. Canada has
contributed slightly to the settlement 5t
the new North-west, but the rule has been
as we have stated it. The Eastern States
have sent multitudes of men who, finding
their substance wasting in a vain struggle
to keep up appearances, have realized as
well as they could and gone West to found
new homes. The stream has received large
accessions in its passage through the Mid-
dle States. Even from the West we hear of
migration beyond the Missouri. Tax-ridden
farmers of Illinois are seeking fairer fields
of labor in Nebraska. The wisdom of the
change in the last of these instances is not
apparent. The spirit of unrest is at work,
and men sell their farms when they can,
with a vague idea of doing more with the
money in a newer region. The more note-
worthy of the developments we have re-
ferred to are of a more wholesome charac-
ter. They are signs of the self-reliance
which leads men to turn to account the lit-
tle they have left, regardless of the hard-
ships which the.change involves. Eastern
energy is thus enlarging the available re-
sources of the remote West, and setting ex-
amples that deserve a more careful study
than they have yet received.
A VILLAGE WITHOUT DEBT.
In our returns recently of local elections,
from the towns and villages of this State, it
was mentioned incidentally that one village
of Westchester County — Dobb's Ferry — had
not a dollar of debt, either funded or floating,
and boasted a considerable balance in its
Treasury. This is the more striking, as the
"city" nearest to it — ^Yonkers — is reported
to be burdened by one of the largest debts,
in proportion to population, which weigh
upon any of our cities. This contrast is, of
course, due in part to the necessarily larger
expenditures, pro rata to population, of a
city over a village. What attracts people
to such a suburban town as Yon-
kers, is that it offers good sidewalks,
well-paved roads, an ample water supply,
lighted streets, and a Police guard. Then
come other conveniences, such as a hand-
some railroad station, a safe access to the
river side, decent court-rooms, and the like,
all of which must be paid for. People get
more in a " city," and therefore pay more,
than in a small town. Still, that does not
account for all the difference in relative
taxation and public expenditure between a
city and a village in our State. Dobb's
Ferry, for instance, has good roads, side-
walks, a fair supply of gas, safe access to
the river, and sufficient Police ; while Troy,
another "city," shows much neglect in
her public ways, and enjoys no especial ad-
vantages, and yet, if we remember correct-
ly, is weighed down by a debt that eats
away a great deal of' the savings of labor.
The contrast we believe to be due in
lar^ part to that feature in our municipal
constitutions which has attracted thus far
so liCtle attention among economists ; that
is, the property-holders in villages control
the expenditure of public moneys — except-
ing a limited tax for roads and bridges —
while in cities the whole voting population
in effect govern the annual outlays. This
is, in fact, the very feature which the Mu-
nicipal Commission attempted to introduce
into, the amendments of the Constitution
now before the Legislature, and which have
aroused such indignation among the dema-
gogues. Indeed, so far as we know, no
Democratic politician in good and regular
standing has ventured to favor the limiting
the control by popular suffrage over the ex-
penditure of the money of tax-payers. Even
Gov. Tilden, who appointed the commis-
sion, has never openly expressed his ap-
proval of this most reasonable reform. The
wonder is that the communistic tendencies
of the Democratic Party have permitted
this future to remain so long in our village
administration. But there it has given rise
to nc^ difficulties. The masses of Irish la-
borers in each of our villages have not felt
themselves robbed of their ' ' natural rights,"
by not being permitted to vote when
a question came np, as to voting the
property of the tax-payers away for some
" improvement" of the village. In fact,
each industrious working man was rather
stirred by this privilege to seek to own
land, and when he became a land-owner the
Irish peasant was found to be as conserva-
tive about new. taxes as the most x>enurious
Dutch or Yankee farmer. The masses in
our Tillages have, of coarse, the .same gen-
eral political power as in the cities. They
elect the F^resident. the Federal, the State,
amd Judioiaisr offleara. „Bat the Trostaaa
who dispense the moneys of the tax-payers
are chosen by tax-payers.
Political experience and the democratic
sense of equality are thus preserved, vrith
all that is best in republican ijistitntions.
The simple, common-sense principle is fol-
lowed that those who pay the money will be
most apt to spend it economically, and that
a crowd of voters, without permanent inter-
est in land or property, ai'e not the best
managers of so complicated a thing as the
public expenditure. Naturally, inasmuch as
the ignorant masses determine the political
future of even village officers, they will some-
times force them into extravagant expendi-
ture. But the more the constituency own real
estate, and the more tax-payers control, the
more likely will public outlays be reasonable
and moderate. Not all our villages can pre-
sent the record of the Westchester village
to which we have, referred. It may have
enjoyed, too, exceptionally good officers.
But in such a small city as Yonkers, for
instance, the Ring could not have succeeded
in creating jobs for contractors and work-
men on the costly boulevards, if the tax-
payers alone had been in control. The same
is true of Troy, Brooklyn, and numerous
other cities. The present arrangement
offers a temptation to a continual com-
munistic division of the property of the
tax-payers among the poor, bycreatingpub-
lic works not needed. It has gone so far
that property-owners in some of our cities
were almost stripped of their possessions.
Nothing will save this City from bankruptcy
but the reassuming by the intelligent and
well-to-do classesof the control of its public
expenditure's.
A SPANISH SMUGGLER.
Here is another of those occasions which
cause the conscientious journalist to wish
that he had never been born. The jcold
world little thinks of the terrible co3t at
which it is sometimes furnished with the
news of the day. There are events of which
the public must be apprised, but which can-
not be told without lacerating the feelings
of the earnest and sensitive narrator. An
event of this nature has just happened in
Madrid. It would be cowardly and dishonest
to suppress it. Moreover, the story comes
directly from the State Department at
Washington, and it is by no means certain
that its suppression would not be an act of
rebellion. Let us, then, go forward boldly
and discharge f painful duty without mur-
muring.
The Spaniard is not usually thought to
possess inventive genius. Among all the
important inventionswhich have been made
since the union of Castile and Arragon, the
art of "walking Spanish" is the only one
which has been attributed to the Spanish
intellect. ^But there has at last appeared a
Spaniard Imo is clearly entitled to be ranked
as one of the ablest of living inventors, and
it is the history of his invention which must
now be laid before the public.
The City of Madrid is, as every one knows,
a walled city. It is not, however, generally
known that nearly all merchandise which is
broughtintothecityhastopayaspeoial duty,
no matter if it is an imported article which has
been already taxed at a Spanish Custom-
house. This is the case with petroleum. It
is heavily taxed when it enters Spanish ter-
ritoiT' and is again taxed still more heavily
when it enters Madrid. Hence a great temp-
tation to smuggle is offered to those who
supply petroleum to the inhabitants of Ma-
drid, and were the Spaniards an ingenious
people, they would devote so much attention
to smuggling that they would have no time
left to celebrate their annual revolutions.
In the outskirts of Madrid Don Jose De
AxTiQUEDAO Y VcELTA-ASAjo possesses a
charming villa with extensive grounds and
numerous outbuildings. He has long been
known as an extremely benevolent man, al-
ways ready to approve of any act of charity,
and eager to point out fields of philanthropic
usefulness to other people. About six
months ago he announced that the condi-
tion of the babies of Madrid filled him with
grief, and that he was determined to allevi-
ate their sufferings. In the course of an
elaborate essay, which he published in
pamphlet form, he demonstrated that in-
fants could not be reared without artificial
aid in a crowded city. He claimed that no
matter how excellent might be the inten-
tions of the mothers of Madrid, they could
not furnish their infants with desirable
board because their systems were affected in
a deleterious manner by the unwholesome
atmosphere of the city. As for the auxil-
iary bottle, he condemned it with much
fierceness. " Never with my consent," said
this excellent man, " shall the youth of
Madrid undergo the humiliation of the un-
sympathetic and unsatisfactory bottle."
The true solution of the problem how to
feed the babies of Madrid was, however, a
simple one in his estimation. He
announced that he would keep constantly
on hand a large supply of unex-
ceptionable nurses on his suburban estate.
There is some difficulty in translating his
exact descriptive phrase into English, but
perhaps it will suffice to say that his nurses
were warranted to be able to supply the
wants of the Madrid infants without the aid
of bottles. In short, they were to be self-
acting, perennial, and inexliaustible, and
with their assistance Don JosE De Antiqve-
DAD y Vuelta-Abajo undertook to supply
Madrid with pure Naranjos County — well !
at all events the Madrid infants were to
be fed.
A few weeks later and Don Jose adver-
tised that his establishment was in com-
plete order, and that his nurses would
enter the city daily to wait upon their cus-
tomers. Apparently, he had a great many
patrons, for a few days later a procession of
at least a dozen extremely plump Spanish
women, whose very appearance was suf-
ficient to awaken the hunger of the most
dainty infant, made their appearance at
the city gate. The Custom-house officers
gazed at them with respect and admiration,
and warmly congratulated the Madrid in-
fants upon their good fortune. The praises
of the benevolent Don Jose were in every
mouth. The local press published frequent
leading editorials asserting that the local
infants were thriving to an extent hitherto
unknown, and hinting that the grand rega-
lia of the Order of St. Intrinidad had been
given to many men who deserved it less than
did the beneficept Don Jose. . For three
months the procession of nurses entered
the city at morning, noon, and night, and
grew-in numbers, antU it was no unusnal
thing for sixty women to present them-
selves at the gate at one and the same time.
On the 4th, das of MerabeJast. it hapoened
that a new Costom-honse officer, Lient
Colorado Masttbo, was on du^ at the
Zarzuela gate when the noon procession of
nnrses made its appearance. He was a
thoughtful, intelligent man, but he was not
popular with the small-boys of Madrid.
Just as the leading nurse entered the city a
stone, thrown at the officer, missed its mark
and smote the nurse in the region of- the
lungs. To the officer's great astonishment,
the blow produced a hollow metallic sound
which at once awakened his suspicions.
Without a moment's delay, Lieut. Maduro
called out a file of solders, and arresting
every nurse, sent for two female searchers
and ordered them to do their duty. Twenty
minutes later sixty exceptionally thin
and sad-looking women were marc'hedto the
City Prison, and one hundred and twenty
tin cans, of a curious hemispheric shape,
filled with petroleum, were lying heaped to-
gether where the female searchers had
thrown them.
Don Jose de Antiquedadt Vuelta-Aba-
jo was thus discovered- to be an impostor.
He had not furnished a single Madrid infant
with pure Naranjos County — well, food.
He was not a philanthropist, and he cared
neither for nurses nor children. He was,
however, an audacious and ingenious
smuggler, and the long success of his artifices
has so overthrown Spanish faith in woman,
that none but the thinnest and most level
of the sex can pass a Spanish Custom-house
without undergoing the most rigid scrutiny.
THE SA VINGS BANKS.
The January report of the Banking De-
partment concerning the savings banks of the
entire State is not vet transmitted to tne Legis-
lature, and was not last year until the se<;ond
week in May ; but meanwhile it may be of in-
terest to make some examination, by compar-
ison of a^gre^tea in the chief particulars, of
the figures already obtained concerains: the
banks of this City, which hold about 60 per
cent, of the total savings deposits in the State :

In examining these figures it must be borne
in mind that the banks covered by the three
dates are not quite the same, *the older table
omitting a few small ones, together with the
German and the Union Dime, and several banks
having failed durini; each half-yearly period.
Of course, these failures account in part for the
reduction in the totals, although not fully : the
general movement has been a declining one,
with, however, several important exceptions to
be noted. Inasmuch as the totals in the com-
parison are affected both by the failure of some
banks and by changes in the rule of valuing
secarities. a more exact conclnsion can be drawn
from a comparison as follows of the ratio of
several items of assets to the total assets, and of
surplus to deposits:
Jnlvl, .T«Ti. 1.

11.7 ll.ti

l.^-ft
Mortcazes 27.0
Vnited Slates bonds 30.8
Real estate 2.8
Surplus 10.9
It is noticeable that all but three of the items
given in the first table were at the hi|rhest point in
July last. The absolute increase in real estate,
notwith.standing the decline in assets both from
failures and from the excess of deposits with-
drawn over deposits made, can be accounted for
only in one way — an increase in the property
taken on foreclosure. The absolute decrease in
mortgages — which, as 'shown just above, was
relative also during the first half of the year but
notduriugtfae second — is notgrreater than would
be expected on account of the shrinkage in the
total assets. The increase in tne holding of
Government bonds, both absolute and relative,
notwithstanding the declinlnz totals, is one of
the two gratifyine features noticeable. This
increase during the first half of the year ^vas be-
tweeneleven and twelve millions, and. although
only nominal during the second half, it still con-
tinues; and the relative increase is that the pro-
portion of assetsinvcsted in Governments on July
1 was 5I2 percent, in advance of that of Jan.
1, and is now 1 per cent, in advance of that of
July 1. Of course, it is an elementary rule in
finance that Government bonds are peculiarly
suited to the requirements and the legitimate '
purposes of savings banks; and the propor-
tionate holding of them is not yet what it ought
to be, although it is on the increase. Taking
the ten largest banks, having total assets of
over $161,000,000, we find that five of them
have so declined in deposits that the whole ten
have declined a million and a half in assets,
yet, although three of the five were compelled
to sell largely of their Government bonds,
the whole ten together increased their
holding $3,085,000 during the year : seven
banks of the ten added $5,788,000, and
three parted with $2,703,000. In this com-
parison we use round numbers, and make it
solely as an evidence of the hii^n appreciation
placed upon Governments as a savings bank as-
set by the strongest and best managed banks.
Following the same investigation further, we
find that, while the percentage of Governments
to assets in all the banks combined is 30, it runs
as follows in the ten largest banks, naming them
in order of their size : Bowery, 47 ; Bank for
Savings, 43; Seamen's, 39; Emigrant Indus-
trial, 12 ; Greenwich, 26 ; German, 38 ; Dry
Dock, 18; Manhatton, 20; East Biver, 30;
Union Dime, 8 ; although it is only fair to say
that the last-named began the year with 16 per
cent, in Governments, but was obliged by a
"run" to part with about three-fourths of
them. It is not merely a coincidence that the
banks which hold, absolutely and relatively,
the most Government bonds, and have bought
them most largely durins the year — the Sea-
rdens. Bowery, German, and Greenwich stand-
ing at the head as to this last particular — are
also the largest, most solid, and best managed.
The following table, giving ssveral leading
particulars of the condition of the City banks
at the end of each year, beginning with 1866,
and ending with 1877, may be interesting :

The chief point of this comparison at present
is that the movement of average account has
not been a healthy one, having risen steadily up
to the end of 1876, the explanation being that
an increasing use has been made of the savings
banks by persons of the " capitalist" class ; hard
times may thus produce simultaneously these
apparently Inconsistent phenomena — increased
deposits, increased withdrawals, increased sur-
plus, increased average account, and decreased
number of accounts. A year ago the single ac-
count ran as high as $5,0O0 in the Manhattan,
$10,000 in the Dry Dock, $18,277 in the
Irving, $40,000 in the Seamen's, and $89,779

The average account in general being $383^
it appears that the large accounts, as naturally
would be the case, seek the large banks ; in the
North River and Franklin, which may be 1»kfm
as examples of the moderate-sized bank, the av-
erage is $149 and $160, against $150 and
$179 a year ago. Nearly all the above hav«
gained during the year in deposits and numbei
of accounts, and yet the encouraging fact is that
the average account with them, as well as witl
all the banks a:;gregated, shows a decline. A
curious fact which may be noted Incidentally is
that the Union Dime, which during the year
has suffered a withdrawal of more than aouble
the amount deposited, causlns the closing ot
3,842 accounts out of 28,581, and the sale of
three-fourths of its Government bonds, shows a
decline of $96 in the average account, this sug-
gesting that the pressure of ** runs" may not be
so exclusively on the part of the ignorant and
small depositors as is supposed. In this con-
nection it is well to remember that the
general act of May 17, 1875, forbids allow-
ing any account to rise above $5,0OU,
unless made, in pursuance of an order of
court or prior to the passage of the act;
hence it is fair to infer that the heavy accounts
which raise the average balance are in many
cases several years old. The mo^t encouraglus
features are, the decline in the interest rate
paid or sought ; the relative increase in the
holding of Government bonds, and the decline
in'the average account. The first two me&n a
change in the direction of safety, which should
- be the prime aim of savings-bank management :
the last indicates that the banks are slowly
changing toward becomiug. as they ouzht to be,
depositories for the small hoards of the many.
On the whole, it is gratifying to note that the
mushroom and cheating concerns which were
the natural product of a State supervision that
was destructive rat'ner than conservative, are
now nearly weeded out. Supervision has not
been quite so complete a failure as respects
savings banks as it has with life insurance, but
the best to be said for it is. that concerning ths
former, the bitter lesson has been put to use in
effecting statutory changes which are both cor-
rective and preventive.

The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle argues that the
life of Alexander H. Stephens is being providentially
spared, that he may fill the chair of President of the

haps Oliver Wendell Holmes' phrase, "to rattlr

The Utica Obarn(r says : " Doubtless it ii
true that Mr. Kelly promised to release him.
[Tweed,] and while Mr. Kelly assumed to act for Uic
Attorney -General, be could not comprehend, nor caa
he now, why the Attorney-General should act fbt
himself. If Mr. Scboonmaker does not stiaightway
consent to Tweed's release be will be made to feel
the t>ower of Mr. Kelly's wrath, and the dictatorial
Controller of New-York will accuse him of bad
faith, as he has already falsely accused FaizchUd.
But Mr. Scboonmaker does not seem to scare easily.'*

tame, would answer to its name, eat from its mai-
ter's hand, and perform sundry cnnninjt tricks. It
was a'llowed entire freedom, and never manifested
any disposition to shift tor itself. Last Fall It waa

wnidiieoTeredth>ttha InaotHblt* Bagbaa,I«m^
bardaalars, had been obliged to suspeod by reason '
of azteadve forgeries perpetrated by IU Westora
ispieseulatlva, Jeeepb W. Bagbea, who is a blotter
ot one of the firm. Mr. Bagbea haa beea tba:£>-
*'f fT*^* iveat of the boase, and has -tow
troUad the firm's large business la thst dty. Bng^
bee's Irragnlaritlee were first saspeeted about, a'
weak agOi when the ifatm received a letter from
Davla, Moody A Co., ot LoaJsviUa, Ky., informing
them that they had received aotlee ot a note eomliig
daa. wUeh note pirportad to have bean signed by
them. It is supposed that Mr. Bagbea, of this dty,
forwarded the lattar to hi* broOar aad demanded aa
explaaatioo. The latter, upon the rsedpt dt tte
letter, sent tor Mr. A t Lyon, to whom he made a
ton eontassion. The notes witb forged siviatant
which have baan sent to Boston by Bagbee number
110. and the following are somaot the heaviest:
M. dostmaaa, CiadnnatI, gl3,000| G. Benshsw A
Son, dndnaati, flO.OOO; Hatch. Hplbrook AOo.,
Chia^o, 90,000; Hsnshaw A Sons, CiadnnsU,
f 10,000; Joseph Griffith A Son. Cincinnati, 9li,0o6
Marel Brothers A Co.. Philaddphia, f 10,000; T.
W.HacT*y. Chicago, 320,000; Holmea A Ca, Chir
eago, 910,000. The whole amount of the torgerie*
is upward of $150,000, and ia addltloa to this Bar
bee has drawu largsly oa the firm, keeping it up as
lato aa March 30, the draft ot that date having beea
presented to the firm this' afternoon for aeceptanee.
At the present time it is impotdble to give the ex.
act amount for whleh the firm is llaUa, but it is solB.
dently large to rnln them. Manyot the notea have
been discounted by Boston banks, and all are pay-
able at IndlanapoUa. The object ot this seems to
have been to cover the criminal transactions, tor by
making thnn payable at- Indianapolis Bngbse
could take them up as soon aa they be-
came due, tha tuads for this parposa coming from
the drafu on the Boston firm. His mode of opersr
tion secmi to liave been to forge the names of th*
prominent inmber-deders with whom he. as sgent ot
th* Boston firm, had butinaas transactions, and sand
these forged aotas, together with geaulaa ones of the
same partlea, to Holt A Bagbee. Thea he would
draw OB the Bootoa firm for whatever amoaau he
might require.
Joeaph W. Bagbee, the forger. Is about 30 yean ot
age, and has been ia the employ ot Mr. Holt sine*
boyhood. He has lisf d a highly reepeetoble podttoa
la ladiaaapolia, bdnna ■*absg at the Board of
Aldarmaa aad of tha Police Board, fie haa been ia
the habit of ordering lumber from this dty aad bar-
ing ia th* W*st tor th* firm, drawing notes ia iavor
of and against the house, as his neeesdtles reqiJired.
Qs sDeculations wsre largely la red eatete la ladiaB.
apoUs, to meet the losses oa which he drew aotes
against tha firm on fietltious porchasas and sent for-
ward notea ot parties whom he represented to be
puichtsers of Inmbsr, which bore sigaatarss aow
eoofessed to be forgeries.
Immediately after hearing Bugbee's coafsasloa,
Mr. Lyoa started for Boston, arriving on Tueeday.
He laid the whole matter before the firm and Mr.
Bagbee, the teotiier of the forger, left at once tor
IndianapoUs. Up to this time tlie firm has beea of
the highest staadiag, ite asssu bsiag rated at abont
9100,000. To-day, aa said abovs^ they are baak-
rupt.
Boston banks hold notee glveu on account of Holt
A Bagbee to the amonat of 9229,063 54, whidi
la divided about as follows: Exchange Bank, 963,.
698 87 ; Beak ot Commerce. 934,711 68 ; Black,
stone Bank. 973,265 78: Metropolitan Bank, 938..
178 71; Bkhardson. HiU A Co., «19,208 30. Ot
this aggrscate it is known, that 9134,739 92 is lep-
reeeated by aotes forged by J. W. Bngiiee.
iHDUKAPOLia, Ajiril 4.— Mr. John B. Bagbee, ot
Boston, ot the firm of Holt A Bagbee, arrived here
to-day, and waa aeen to-night- Hia brother, Joeeph
W. Bagbee, came to this dty abont eight years sgo,
snd soon became kaowa aa oae of the meet enter-
prising and prospenaa business men in Indian-
apolis. He managed a large lumber business,
and, ia eompaay with aaothar lumber-dsder,
named BuaaeU, enured largely iato real aetate
transaetions, buying land and Imildina rsaldeneee
asd two large bnslBess blocks. His credit has al-
ways beea exceileat, aad ha haa stood vary high. He
isnowamamber at the City OoaadL He began
drawing heavily on the Boatoa firm some tune
ago, and they seat aa agent hare to look attar af-
fairs. Joseph had represented that he waa buying
largely ot walnut lumber, but when hia yard waa in-
spected tlwra waa little to show tor the money.
His powers were then curtailed, and he was not
allowed to use the name ot the firm ot Holt A Bog-
bee to nudu eomniercia> paper, but only to dga such
cheeks aa might be necessary to pay his cur-
nnt sxpenditnres. This seems to nave been
the reason for his maklag duplicate copies
ot notee, and sandiag them to the Boston firm, be-
sides sending large qoaatitias ot other fietitiaas pa-
per. On Moodily last a massenger tibm here
arrived in Boeton with the information that
a crisis had come, aad Joha Bagbee started tor
Indiau^polla at once to investigate affairs, stopping
payment npon all paper held by the banka in Boston
as amaasiira otnroteetioa. Mr. Bagbee arrived, aa
has beea said, today, bat luu beea too tired
and prostrated to commence the examination. Ba
saya tha amount ot the fietttlona panar Is largely
exaggerated. There is no other eoaipaeattOB lathe
hnfcas of Holt A Bagbee save thIa, and he ssys the
news' ot his brotbsr's coadaet came to bim ok* a
thmiderdapb .'
Two years ago Joeeph W. Bagbee merited
the daughter of Bev. Mr. Hay. a Pre*byt*rlaa
clargymaa, aad it waa aaeartauiad from him to-
id^t that Bagbee bad not intimated anything
of hia bualnaea troublea. He alwaya repre-
sented himself to be In a good condttioB,
safo ia hia real eatote speealatloiis, and la no
eouplicatloas. For the past three or fOnr days'
Bngbee haa beea eompldniag of nines*, and last
alght Mr- Hay calico at hia house, aad.fonad
him with a bad headache aad aymptoau ot
fever. He took him out riding aad retaraed
to Ua home with him at tea-time- That was
the leat he had saea ot him ap to a late
hour this evening. The employee of the
lumber ofllee say he waa about the yard thismomm^

aaauma that Toar U^Mimton daalre to knov the tnith
la Tocard to the regiateT. Thoy will find U •qoallr
diatant from tiw extnragant claims of tha enamored
advoeatea of tha ajstem, on thao^ htm^ and from
the embittered denanaUtlona of it* (^poaents on
the other. It may baaidd fairly, if somewhat par»>
doxleally, that tne register is a vaceesa, but that the
money which was expected td come from it has not
been raised. If New-York khonld oonelnde to adopt
it, it wonld be wise for h«r Bepreaentatires to atody
and eorraettbadafaoCa that are ao patent in tbaTir-
ginialaw.
Prerions to the Introdaetion of the regiHter^-or
beU-pnneh. as it is popolarly oalled— we were realiz*
ingaboat 9138.000 per annam from specific liquor
Ueenaea. It was contended that tha reglnter and the
redoeed lieanaea wonld net at leaat $600,000 per an-
anm. That waa a tax too liberal estinute. If it
aecnres na 9400.000 the present pnblie expectation
will be aattafied. In the cities and towns generally
the law has been moderately well exeeoted. In tiie
eonnties It has not worked so wall ; in some localities
it has been almost disregarded. Saloona aad bar-
rooms of the better daaa, kept by men who cannot
afford thertak of being reported, have made honest
retnma. Low "groggertos" and *' dram-sbdps "
are evidently Tiolating the law, without tha
sllKhtest compnnetiott on the part of the
loroprietors* consciences, and with little ap-
prehension of dateetion and punishment. To
too great an extent it is a tax on honest dealers
and none on the otbera. To"T>eatthe bell-punch "
is not a dlffienlt matter. Some Insenioos men have
gained access to the mechanism and tnmed the
handa back. But with tha registers of the latest
make this is. difficult, if not Impossible, to do. But
there are other ways which are avall&ble. For in-
stance, the tax here on a dxink of alcoholic spirits is
2^ cent*, on malt liquors ijtcent. If tlie customer
is not watchful the dlahoniest barkeeper w n turn the
exmnk of the malt register, sound the bell, and record
one. He thuJt saves 2 cents, and the practice is fre-
quently resorted to. The two registers are of the
same size, thetr bells sound alike, and their
labds, '"3Ia]t" and "Alcoholic," are small aad
not attraetira. How much the State has lost
by people registerinff alcoholic drinks on the malt
zefi;ister ao one can talL At first the- customers
were curious to see the operation of the machines, and
they watched the registration of drinks. The thing
has long ceased to be a norelty. and now if the cus-
tomer, as he takes up his change and starta for the
door, hears a gong strike, he is satisfied. In aome
instances common table-gongs, or gongs on patent
money-drawen. are struck. The inventora, aware of
these frauds, now propose to use bells (or gongs,
rather) ^th a {wcnltar sound. They hope to ward off
the evil ; mayoe they will succeed. Where five or
six men are serred at the counter at the same time,
it is very easy for the barkeeper to cheat, either by
turning the malt register for alcoholic drinks, or by
omitting some of the drinks. There are also plenty
0^ dishonest drinkers, who, to save the tax. (which is
^raimonly added to the old price of drinks) willingly
wink at the fraud.
The law -against violations is stringent enough
provided a dwler Is once caught, repor^M and eon<
victed. But here is where a notable w- ak .ess in the
law nppean : The ^tate has no deteei':vc« to enforce
thelAW; the people are !□ deed promised a share of
the flue imposed npon violators whom they report,
but the provision Is wholly inoperative. People will
not do the work for the sake of the rewara, nor
through paroly patriotic motives. Unless the State
authorities employ detectives, or the United States
Jntetnal Revenue Department does, the system will
not folfill jast expectations. Tbere was snch a bill
before the General Assembly at its late session, but
the "readJast,er--<" — those who are desirous of com-
pelling the creditors of the State to accept such
a compromise as the latter may propose — ^joined
with some old enemies of the sjmtem aad defeated it.
The Auditor of Pnblio Accounts has not yet been
able to get returns from all the eouucies as to the
operations of this system. The Commissioners of
the Revenae are the inspectors of the rejcisters.
They are elected by the people. Naturally, they do
not care to impair their popularity with liquor-
dealers, and the consequence is that some of them
seem to b« dtsregaTdinf; the law altogether; others,
however, are doing their duty. There are some
counties that have not been heard from by
the Auditor, ana he cannot tell whether
the reeisters are In operation or not.
From such returns as have come in— «aeh county and
city should rennrt monthly — it is clear that the regis-
trations in the a^^regate are steadilyiTrowinz amailer
and An>allar. ihowiug that the law is not being en-
forced. The Auditor admits this fact, and has just
made it the basis of a circular to the Commis-si oners
of the Revenne. There are many neople who desire to
see the State utterly bankrupt and hope thereby to
force the bondholders to surrender their tax receivable
coupon bonds. Instead of an evasion of the Moffett
law belnff tilways condemned by public opinion, in
some localities it is approved. At least the result
would indicate as much.
There is nothing in the claim that the register is a
salutary check upon the depredations of -the bar-
keeper. A man who Is determined to steal can do it
under this system aa well as any other. If the pro-
prietor settles the cash by the registers the bar-
keeper has an additional incentive for swindling the
State, for by so doing tho price of the drinks (and the
tax) not recorded will be put into his own nocket.
PethaiM the registers which are made at Culpeper
would not have to be " seat to Richmond to be re-
S aired." Here each Commissioner of the Revenne
aa extra roeisters. If one gets out of order he puts
a new one in it^ place. Those out of order
in New-York Staie would be repaired iu Xew-Yorx.
The ayatem of taxation is capable of ^reat things,
but ia has not yet had a fair trial in Vlreinla. It haa
not raised na ont of our financial diflBmlties, proba-
bly because the law is weak and inefEectivo, and such
as It is the officers have not cared to enforce it rigor-
ously. The liquor-dealers who were once violent and
Open in tnelr donuaciatloua of it iire now rather
quiet.

LoKo Branch, April 4.— During the exam-

fense offered Mra. Julia Kavanangh, the wife of the
allesod Incendiary, aa a witneaa, to prove that aome
of the information which it was charged FStener had

Hoey's punters, named Foster, visited her saloon

ing eourt at Mr. Ho«7*a r^aldenoe. at Hollywood

baad, and that afternoon she told a Police officer
what Foster bad said. Foster made affidavita to-day
before Jnxtioea of the Peace here that titn. £ava-
nanj^'s tasUmony waa false. He awore ha eonld not
haja informed her that Jnstiee Pitcher waa at
Hollywood Park on tiia Sunday la question, aa be
[Foster] did not knov^ it. He also awore that he was

Tbxktok, April 4.— There la mnch talk aboat
tha result of the laat Demoeratte effort to gervy-
mander Jersey City. Tba poUtldana of the dty da-
tarmtaed to pass an act ahaagtng tha Aldarmaaie
llnesj The Assembly Ilaeshavaalready been changed,
or at least a bUl making the change has been paaaad.
The two houses ba\ a beea playing ahvttlaeoefc ani
battledore w;th ifae A derman'e Uil ever riaee it
made its api-earsara. It haa been amended and ra-
amended, pasaad ml raealled, aalarged aad re-
atdicted, but it fna'ly went through aobatantlaQy aa
it waa introduce i. T.:a Scaake had ao sooner nan-
eurred in the last amcndmenia tefoie AuemUyman
McDonald started post baste with it tor thaGnbemn-
torial residence. Tue Govercor had gone to bed,
but the bill to be operative must be law five d^ra
before the election, and the Governor moat sacrifice
his comfort to the party neceaalty. He yielded graee-
tully, and, armed with a pen kqA Ink, made hia ap-
pearance at tha door and appended his algnature.
The hero of the bill early thia morning telegraphed
to hia frienda in Jeney City to get ready to go to
work nnder the bHI. ** Call the Aldermen together,"
ne telegraphed to City Clerk Scott, ** and have them
citange the Aldermanle lines. My bUl ia law."
So Scott eaUed the Aldermen together, and they read
bill. " We had better take the advice ot coonael
before proceeding, "asld one, " tbe bill la not coasti-
tutionaL" That waa no objection to its enforcement,
however. Had not the party'been all the aessioa
overridine the conEtitntion t Ex-Gov. Bed)e advised
them to proceed and redivide the Ibiea la aeeordanea
vith the bill. Ther telegraphed to Oorporation
Counsel Abbett, in thia city, but he telezraphed back
that the bin was unconstitutional. They liacexed
around all day in the hope that he wonld
cliange his ,mind, but he didn't. He tele-
graphed to them. on the contrary, tikat,
constitutional or otherwise, the -bill could not t«ka
effect till the -Ith of July— too late for next Tnea-
day's charter election. The bill was dedgned to
make the lines conform to the AsBemblylinaa, aa
established by a law passed a few weeks aeo. But
the latter law does not operate till July 4 and so all
the hunr and finny and labor of the Democratic
branch of the House ^oes for naught.
The house!) are, nevertheless, determined to do
something handsome for Jersey City, and are caactia-
iog this evening the qaestion of paa^ng Hrrria* or
Babe's general bill for the election of cstyofficataby
the city at large.
An effort is being made to repeal the Seven Per
Cent. law. This evening, in the Senate, Mr. Ma-
sie's Seven Per Cent, bill was laid over to give place
to Hobart's bill, which adds the foUowlnc provuo to
the Six Per Cent, act : " Provided, however, that
nothine in this act shall be held to affect any eon-
tract for loan ot money now existing, whether the
time limited for payment has yet expired or not, nor
shall It affect any renewal or continuance of any
auch loan until the same shall be finally paid in cash,
or otherwise settled." It was vizorousfy foogfat by
Senators Ridseway, Cooper, ana Canfield. but waa
finally ordered, jnst as it reads, to a third readine.
To-morrow an eCo-t willbemade.underasnspension
of the rules, to rush it through the House.
The Robin.<«on Libel law, permitting indictments
anywhere in the State, but trial only in thejonaty
in which the defendant resides—If the defeflpnt de-
sires it — was, after a warm dlscnaslon in thTHonse,
declared lost.
AmonfF tbe acts passed to-day was that providing
for an Excise Board in Jersey &^, and that giving
the Chancellor supervising control of aavings banka.
Senator Sewell's bill for the establishment at a State
Inebriate Asylnm at Vtneland was defeated.
Senator Hendrickson. the oldest member of tba

A THIEF ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
AX EXCITTKa SCEKB IN FATHER O^FARRELL'S
PARLOR — THE ROBBER WHEK DETECTED
SHOOTS HIMSELF IK THB EAR— HIS SiJB-
SEQUEN? ARREST.
At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon a well-dressed
man, apparently aa Italian, entered St. Teresa's
Roman Catholic -Church in Henry-street, near But-
gers-street, and made his way unobserved through a
side door to tl^e ractory attached to the church.
In the hallway he encountered a female aer-
vant. who demandei bla business- He asked
for Father Martinelli, and she told him that there
waa no priest of that name in the house, but as he
had asked to see a priest she permitted him to enter
the parlor. At this time there were in the honaa
Father O'Parrell, the Paator of the ehnreh;
Fathers Farrell, Hayne, and Powell, bis aa-
sintants, and Father Flynn, ot Port Jervia.
L ather O'Farrell recognized the stranger as a pre-
tended Frenchman who had eaUed on him two or
three weeks before and demanded wor)^ and ou
bein^ refused became very impertinent. His de-
scription also tallied with that of a man who had
been visiting and robblns priests* houses of late.
Fstner O'Farrell requested Father Farrell to sum'
mon A policeman. The stranger thereupon rushed
out of the parlor to the hall door, but thia was fast-
ened with a spring latch, which he could not open..
Father Farrell then seized him and dragged bim into
the parlor. The stranicer rushed to one ot the win-
dows, evidently intending to leap into the street, but,
apparently cbanoing his mind, drewtrom hlspocketa
seven-chambered revolver, and threatened to
shoot the priesta and then kill Umself unless
they permitted him to depart. Father Farrell
turned to leave the room and as he did so
the stranger put the muzzle of the pistol to his [the
Strang's] right ear and fired. He tell to the floor
and remained motionless, and the. Priest believed
that.he bad ( arried his threat of kifflag hisnaelf iato
execution. Fntrier Farrell found ' Patn^mSh "He-
Sweeney, of the Seventh Precinct, In Jtutgers-
street, and brought him to the house. Ax the
officer entered toe parlor the aupposed dead
man sprang to his feet and attempted to
shoot nimself as-iln, but the officer disarmed
him and took him to tbe station-house in Hadison-
btreet. Tbe priKoner refnsed to give hts nante, and
on oxamlntng him It was found that he had ahot him-
self in the right ear, ihe buUec entering aad lod^ng
aeainst the drum of tbe ear, inflicting a vary
severe wound. He waa taken to the Cham-
bers-Street Hospital. where he remains
under guard. At the hospital he gave his aamo as
Emllio Capparelli. He said be was a native of Italy,
:<£3 years or a£e, wiss a bartender 1^ oceinwtion, and
resided at No. ^3 Bnxter-atreet. He did not deny
that he had entered Father O'FarreU'a hoosa for tbe
Surpose of robbery, and said that the pzieats were all
rones and thieves ; they did no work for thetr liv-
ing, and he thought he had a perfect right to ateal
from tbem, as tney combined to rob the poor people.
In his possession were found $1 75 in money and a
card or the New-York Medical College beutng the
uame of Fernando Ferloix.
During the past three weeks the prisoner has bean
in the habit of visiting the residences of prieats ad-
joining their chnrcbe-s under tbe pretense of seekug
employment, and takmz advantage of the priests
absence to steal whatever he could lay his hands on.
Among his victims are Fattien McAleer and Mont-
gomery, of St. Cotumba's Chnrcb, In West Twen^-
fifth-street ; Father Bnrtsell, of theChardi of the£^-
phan>>, in Second-avenue, nearTwanty^eeond'atreat;
and Father Aubril. of Sc* ^laleent de Plaal'a C^iuc^u
These robberies were not reported to tha Police, bat
the description of the thief waa aent to aJl tbe
priesu in tbe Oitv, and thia led to his detention. It
IS believed that the priaoner will be able to leave the
hospital la a day or two. and will then be arraigned
at the Essex Market Police Conrt. The jdstol ased
by Cappar^i was purchased by him yestcoday tor
92. It IsA small veat-pocket piatol* eacxying a vary
small cartridge. _

TO REGULATE TEB DOCTORS.
UNQUALIFIED PRACTITIONERS ADMITTED TO
THE MEDICAL PBOFSSSIOK—AN IHPORT-
AKT BILL BEFORE THE LEGISLATURE.
It ia declared by eminent physicUns of this
Stato. and partlenlarly by those of this Coantj, that
the leglalatioQ that has been pnrsaed at Albany^ with
respect to the prmetiee of phyaic and surgery is of
the most lU'COnsldered diaracter. It does not eaeefc
qnackery. but rather, H is said, provides the oppor-
tonltr whereby qoacha and quackery may
beeome legalized. The safeguards thrown about
the profession of law are absent from
that of medidne, and tbe eonseqaenoe is tJiat
while dtlzens may not be robbed by ** shysters" aa
they were formerly, their health may be mined
through the stupidity and lack of edseation of em-
ptrles. It has long been a reproach to the United
States that her physiciana do not eompare aa a class
with the medical men of European countries, and a
diploma emanating from an Ameriean institution ia
still looked npon with suspicion abroada notwith-
standing the great re]nitations aehieved by some of our
nedieal praetitionera. An effort is now being made
to parUy remedy these evUs. and. in this attempt
the prinelpal members of the New- York County
Hedlcal Society are heartily eniEitged.
A bill haa beeu prepared entitled. "An act to bet-
ter regulate the practice of physic and surgery in
tbe atate ot Kew-York," and u is now being consid-
ered by tbe Senate Committee on Public Health.
The prospects of lu passage by both houses aire
thought to be very fardrable. The bill proTidesthat
every person lawfully engage*) or about to engage in
the pnetiee of phyatc and aannry shall register un-
der oath in the offlce of the Clerk of the eoonty tn
whieh he resides his name, residence, birthplace, date
of his dSplom*, license, or certificate, and the name
of the eoD^ea. sodety, or body by whieh he waa
qualified aa a physlelan ; the censors of . each Incor-
vonrted county medical society shall Inspect the
registry twice a year and certify such Inspectlona;
and it shall be a misdemeanor for any person, except
those now InisfnJly engaged, to practice medleine
unlees he shall have obtained a degree from
an inconrarated medical college, or from the Regents
of the Univeisity of this iState. Any person foand
guilty of this misdemeanor shall be fined not less
than $200 nor more than $300, and be imprisoned
untQ the fine is paid, and, in addition to the fine, he
jDMy be imprisoned for a term not exceeding six
months ; for a snbaequent offense tbe offender shall
be fined not less than $400 nor more than $60O, and
be imprisoned nntii the fine is paid, and he may be
imprisoned also, as oart of the punishment, for a
tenn not to exceed id months. One-half of all such
fines shall be paid for the use of the medical society,
whose President stiall institute proceedings against
the offender. The bill also declares the ne^ect of a
ptiystcian In practice to register his name, oe.. with
the Clerk of the eoasty a mlBdemeancr. and ita last
section is meant to accomplish the repeal of the act
of May 11. 1874. -.
The aet of 1874, whteh Is now in foroe, is charged
with having permitted ^e eotranee of many nnqoali-
fied persons into the medical profession. One of the
aeettous of that aot givea to the eensors of each of
the medical societies of the State the right to issue
certificates of qualification, after examination, to
persons who have not graduatisd from a medical col.
lege. There are three medical societies in each
county of the State— allopathic, homeonathle, and
eclectic — and it is believed that some of them have
eensors who, either through thoughtlessness ar
vennlltv. issue certtfleatea to sppllcants whom they
examine in a cursory manner, or not at all.

Judge Charles P. Daly, Mayor Ely, Hon. E. D. Uor-

In his reply Dr. Storrs expresses bis regret
that tt Is out of his power to accept
the invitatton, being under engagements elsewhere.
Be adds: "It looks now as if the most startling
eomblsatioxis and events In this long strugi^e for the
control of Booth-eastern Enrope weiv dose at hand.
The whirling euzrents of the preaent agitation in
Englaad and on the Continent surpass alT effort to
measure thefr force or predict their effects. B ut the

A ease of felonloos assault, in which half tbe
congngatian Tlferet Israel, No. 70 East Broadway,
haa taken aides asalnst the other half, was brousbt
to trial by Aaaiatant Diatrict Attorney Bell, in Part
I. of Oenaral Seasiona yesterday, and attracted aa
eztnordiaary attendance ot East Side Hebrews,
The facta of the ease, briefly, are as follows: Loois
F. Davis, living at No. 33 Allea^treet, sostaiaed a
domistie loaa by havlag a member ot his family ma
over tiy a railroad car, and wished to eommaace an'
action for damagea against the railroad company,
but bad not the meana to procure legal
advice. In thia emergency he called on
hiafriend, Henry Bematein, and an undeTstandlng waa
arrived at by which tbe latter waa to advance the
necessary fund, to commence legal prooeedinga on
the stipulation that he ahonld receive halt the
amount otAained in tbe event of a auoceasful
snit. The aoit waa aesordingly commenced,
and Dsvia recovered $300 damasea. When Bema-
atein elidmed half the amount a diapute aroae as to
how tbe lawyer'a fee* and other expenaea ahonld be
met, and the claim to one item ot $25 waa obatlnate-
ly advaaced by each. Failing to arrive at an amica-
ble aettlement, Davia retained the moneT. whereniion
Bematahi, one Saturday morning, viaitedbia houaeand
after abaaing him aoaadly. threatened to kill him tin.
leaa ha received bia share ot tbe money. A little
while afterward Davia and bia family went to tbe
aynagofne at No, 70 Eaat Broadway and Davia took
a aeat away from bia wife In the aection.aet apart for
males. Bematein entered aoon after, with bia coat
bnttoned up. and proceeding direct to where
Davis aat, aaid : ** Ton won't give me my
money I Now I'll kill you." At the aame moment
he Dulled a pistol tram beneath Ills coat, and fired at
^vis, woonding him in tbe breast. The occurrence,
ot course, caused til* most Intens* *xeitement among

In regard to the recent trouble in Ber. Dr.
Talmi^'a Church in Brooklyn, in reference to the
engagement ot an' organlat, 'Major B. B. Oorwin, at
preaent a member ot the Board ot Elders, aad for
maayyeatsPreaideatot tbe Board otTmateea, gave to
a reporter yesterday aneh informstion aa could be de-
rived from the ofllcial minutes. Aa to the 10 yeara
dnria(whiehthe resigning Tmatees claim to have had
charge ot the mnatcal alTaira of the Tabernacle, Mr.
Corwin aaid that 10 yeara ago Mr. Talmage waa
FaatoT of a church in Fhiladelphia, and that five
years ago the Taberaade waa not in exiatence. Tbe
minntea abowed that the Paator contracted with Mr.
Morgan, on June 16, 1870, at $2,200 a year. " The
atatement that they all retired at oace, on account
of the Morgan matter, ia false, aecoiding to the min-
ntea, *nd the intereiice that tbe Morgan matter made
them all leave at once is a fraud," aaid IMor COrwin,
" and 1 will prove both propositions." He then aaid
that Mr. H. S. Foote, one of tbe men whoeeaam*
•ppeara on the reaignation, haa been in Wcat Vir-
cinia aince Deo. i, aM that he ccaaed to be a Tmatee
when he moved to tliat 'State. B. S. Bobbs, an-
other of the reaigning Tmatees, reahmed on Dee. 29,
1877, on acconnt of 111 health, aa did Mr. John F.
Talmage on Jan. 14, 1878, tor the aame reason.
Another. Mr. B. F. Cogswell, aaya he haa not re-
aigned. Consequently two of the namea were not
aigned by tbe peraona themaelvea, while two more of
thoae who appear aa having leaigned on account ot

THE MAGENTA EXPLOSION.
TBSTDtORT OF IN8PECT0R BLASE AND JOSEPH
BELKNAP— THE INJURIOUS EFFECTS OF
FOiT OOVEBINOS ON BOILERS AND 6TEAH
CEIMNE7S.
The Inquiry into the cause of the Magenta
explosian was continned yesterday by United Statea
Local Inapectora Jayne and Matthewa, and the' te*.
timony developed waa highly important. John W.
Kake, United Statea Aaaiatant Inapeetor of BoUera,
testified regarding his examination ot the Magenta
oa June 5, 1877, aubstantiatly as he bad teatified he-
ton tte (3croner at &ng Sing. He conld not aeooimt
tor the npid corrodon of tte iron of tte ateam chim-
ney, hat auppoeed it waa owing to aome peculiarity
ot tte water naed ; it would not have been poedble,
he aaid, to put in new lininga without discovering
tte defOet ; he had never known such rapid oxidiza-
tion ; he hsd tested tte diimneya with a hammer,
and found them aU right ; the boileta were covered
witt fdt, and could not be aeen wittont taking off or
cutting tte felt ; In such esses he nausBy cut out
pieces of the felt, tor tte pnrpose of sounding tte
iront did not do ao in thia caae, becatiae
he knew tbat tte boDen were eomparatlTely new
and had new lininga, and had been recently repaired.
Joseph Belknap, coaaulting engineer, testified that
he had been engaged In tte construction of ateam en-
gines and vessels since 1835, dnring which time he
bed constrticted and superintended tte construction
ot 140 ateomen : had alao been actively engaged in
running ataamars ss an engineer at ae* ; witneca built
two- ateaman aome time ago for aervice between
Charleston and Savaimafa ; they were of tte aame di-
nieaaloiia and build, having engines ot the aame size
and power ; the iron waa from tte aame place ;
In building the bollera, the iron waa taken without
aelection from the pile; the bolien wero ot tte aame
form and In every known reapect equal ; witneaa
found that wittin the apace of 10 montha the ont-
aide ttcB of the steam chimney of one of tte veasels
was ao deterionted tlsat it required renewal, while
the otter -waa comparatively good; after doae in-
veatigation, witness eame to the conduaion that ttla
reault could only have been produced by tbe action
ot the tdting ttnen tbe outdde cadng of tte chim-
ney, the taetlielng that tte diimney that gave out
-waa felted on the outalds while the otter was
not felted; tte water in which these vee-
aela ran (ttey did not have any suxtaoe
eondansen) waa ordinarily very deetmetive
to iron boUezs, for the reason that tbe rivers empty-
ing Into tte Charleaton and Savannah harbon con-
tamed large qnantitiea of vegetable matter and
adda ; witneaahad noticed that a l>oUer, after being
blown down aa aoon aa it was aata to do ao, vriien
tbe boiler waa filled, that the whole interior ot tbe
ateam-apaee was covered with sman globulea of
water, which iqion being touched exhibited only a
alight moiatura, but a large amount of oxide of iron,
and that the space occupied bytte^obule waa found
to have been corroded or pitted. whUe in boilen that
wen not felted, under tte aame conditiona, the iron
-waa comparatively dry, ttough a amaU trace of oxid*
conld-be detected ; tte rapid corrodon ot Iron in the
afaeB* of ateam boOera, in irUneaa' oninlon, waa
traceablai to the felt coatings : witneas had exaialned
tbe stesBi chinmeys of tte Magenta dnee the explo-
aioS, and toond .the outside casing^ ot the chimney
very much corroded : he was of o'plnion tliat this
eorradon was csuaed bv the action of the felt.
The Inquiry will be continued to-day.

liOHDOH, April 6.— The 3«m«»'St. Peters-
Irarg di>p«teh, d>tad Tnterday eTenlocTi ■»y» :
" Lord SalUbory's etrcnlAr w«» eommani-
eated to Prinm Oortiehmkoff this morn-
ing. It is nld la official drelw that
many of the British objeettons might have been
remoTed In the eonjresa, bat now the door
Is closed against concessions. It is diffleolt
therefore to Imagine any paclfle solution.
The most plansible proposal, perhaps, is that
a oongrsss should hi called to consider the modi-
aeations neeassary in the treaties of 1850 and
1871. Little faith, however, is placed in
such ingenious proposals. The majority of the
official world and of the publio ngaid war as
Inevitable, and show no disposition to shrink
from the grave consequences of a long struggle
which they pretty clearly foresee.
*' Teeteidav, in Moscow, at a meeting of the
society to aid Russian maritime eom-
meroe, it was unanimonsly resolved to
open snVseriptions througfaoat Bussia
to organize a volunteer fleet of light*
vessels for destroying the enemy's com-
merce, and to request the Czarewitoh to accept
the Honorary Presidency of the Central Com-
mittee."
Tlie Ttmaf eoxrespondeut at Vienna tele-
graphs as follows : "It is the impression
to-day that Bussia is not likely to go
out of her way to break oif pourparUn
but will probably use the commnniMtions of
Eogland and Austria as a means of
recommending negotiations. She is, how-
ever, meanwhile strenuously endeavoring
to strengthen both her political and
military situation in Turkey. Some think that
perhaps the Turlcs have already eosdaded an
allianoe. the execution of which is merely
delayed so as not to cause a premature
outbreak of war. Those having access to the
Sultan say, however, that he is much depressed,
and stin hopes to eteipe the necessity of decid-
ing between Bussia and England.
" la accordance with Bussia's advice to pre-
pare for a renewal of war the Prince of Mon-
teneero will raise Ills forces to 25,600 men,
to be armed with Martini rifles captured from
the Turks."
A special to the Cologne OaxetU Itoib Vienna
says England has informed Bussia that she in-
tends to occupy certain strategical points unless
Bussia immeuiately proposes a frank modifica-
tion of the treaty. This report is not credited.
The Vienna dispatch of the Daily JV'eicj states
that Count Andrassy has replied to Lord Salis-
bury, declaring that he also regards acceptance
of toe treaty as impossible, and asking for spe-
eiflc atipnlations from England.
The jl^atly TiUgrapKt Vienna correspondent
hears that Prince OortaohakofF will make a simi-
br request. Buasia is secretly negotiating for
a large loaa. *

ED POWERS.
IiOM>0K, April 6.— The Pott pmblishes the
following in semi-official form : " There is no
doubt that our Qovemment, while determined
to vindicate every line of Lord Salisbury's dis-
patch, is not unwilling to take into consideration
views sna^giested by Viennese statesmen. To-day
the nrospect is mora peaccfol but the Qovem-
ment should guard agaiiut a surprise at Con-
stantinople, and Sir. Layard ought to be em-
powered to assure the Porte of England's sun-
port against any sudden advance of the Bus-
nans."
The JVertk German 6<uett» of Berlin says, al-
though the treaty does not aftect Ger-
many's Interests, the entrance of Bussia
Into antagonism with other neighbors
aad friends of Germany cannot Jte a
matter of indifference to her. The negotiators
of the treaty seem not to have kept the in-
tereeti of other powors snffic:eitly in
mind. Bussia eeuld only purchase the
complete fuUUment of the treaty by another
war. The prinoipal obstacle to a settlement
Is Buasia having bonod herself by the terms
of the treaty. Both England and Austria ad-
mit that great changes are necessary in the
East. It it, therefore, to be hoped that, in
view of the agreement of Bussia, Austria, and
England on this msla point, the common desire
for peaoe may ultimately gain the upper hand.
The lima lias a special disnateh from St.
Petersburg, dated yesterday, saying: "An
'inspired' article In the Journal dt St
Pittrtlmrg says: 'The convietioa that
England's demands are incompatible with
the interests of Bussia and Europe
will find firm support in the public
opinion of this Empire.' Notwithstanding this
decided laognage, all hope of a peaeeftil solution
is not yetabandoned."
The AgeiKe fCunt of St. Petersbtirg yesterday
published an article repeating the statement
that the mission of Qen. IgnatieS
to Vienna was successful. inasmuch
as its sole object was to leam in
a friendly manner Austria's objections to
the treaty of San Stefano. The Agtna
regrets that England has not followed
the same amicable course, since she
would then have made known her pro-
posals side by side with her objections. The
article eontinnes as follows : "If England
ahonld state what she proposed, then her pro-
posals and those of the Cabinet at Vienna might
pave the way for a oommon understanding."
A Berlin speeial to the J^iB ifoB eoserte says :

stated to be dissatisfied with the condition of

TBE DISMEMBEBMENT OF B O V MANIA
COOLER VIEWS IN BCCHABEST — A DISPOSI-
TION TO ACCEPT THE INEVITABLE — THE
PROTEST OF THE CHAMBERS AND HOW
IT WAS MADE — ABSENCE OF THE PRE-
MIER IN VIENNA.
London, April 5. — The ofScial dispatohes
about the Buaao-Boumanian imbroglio, pub-
lished here this morning, and a summary of
whieh was telegraphed to the TTnited States, do
not throw new light on the renorted di^wsition
of the Boumanian Cabinet to consent
to the cession of Bessarabia to Bussia,
because the Boumanian agents at St Pe-
tersburg and Vienna belong to the National
Party, and oppose the cession of Beaaanbia.
The Cabinet would, therefore, be unlikely to
hold other than patriotic language In communi-
cating with them. But the fact is pointed to as
significant that M. Bratiano, the Boumanian
Premier, made a special mission to Vienna during
Qen. Ignatiefs presence there, and that daring
hisl absence no sessions of the Chambera were
intended to be held, probably with the purpose
of preventing irritating speeches and action on
the part of members toward Russia. Mollifying
statements also begin to come from Bucharest,
such as that the more sober-mioded Rouman-
ians and foreigners living in Bucharest think
there has been unnecessary and impolitic ex-
citement over the Bessarabian question, the
decision of which cannot be practically
affected by the feverishly patriotic speeches and
newqiaper articles which have been directed
against the proposed exchange of territory. In
the light of the stupicions thrown on the atti-
tude and wishes of Prince Charles of Bonmania
and his Cabinet, Prince Gortscfaskoff's undiplo-
matic language to the Roumanian agent at St.
Petersburg may have been intended to help the
Government to bring the country round to
their view.
If the attitude of the Roumanian Government
is real, not feigned, it is difficult to see how a
ruptare can be avoided when Bussia proceeds
to enf ore the treaty of San .Stefano, and a rol-
lision between Russia and England and i^ustria
mizht be brought about in this way.
The protest referred to by Prince Gortscha-
koff in' his conversation with the Roumanian
agent in the early part of tliis week was
brought before a secret sittiag of the
Roumanian Chambera last Sunday by mem-
bers hostile to Russia. The meeting of
the Chambers was convened by the Presi-
dent of the Senate at the request of
Prinee John Ohika and H. Stourdza, who
bad just returned from missions to London and
Vienna respectively. After the Senate
was called to order and the object
of the meeting stated, M. Cogalni-
ceano, Minister of Foreign Affairs, strongly
urged the members to postpone action
for 48 houn, until be could communicate with
the Prime Minister, then on a special mission
to Vienna. In spite of this request, five of the
most influential members of each chamber were
appointed as a committee to draw up the pro-
test. Now, however, it is regarded in Bucharest
extremely improbable that the protest will be
sent to St. Petersburg. At any rate, no action
will be taken until the result of M. Brdtiano'a
mission to Vienna is officially communicated to
the Chambers. M. Bratiano will return to-dav.
He holds the portfolios of both War and the
Interior. He devotes himself prtncipaUy to the
latter and foreign affairs, and there is much
dissatisfaction in the War Department on - ac-
count of the neglect of business in that
bureau.
London, April 6. — ^The Timtf correspondent
at Vienna report* that H. Bratiano, the Rou-
manian Premier, has started for Berlin. Though
Austria may not oppose the cession of
Bessarabia, singlehuided, M. Bratiano
may have positive assurance that she will not
peimit the continuance of the passage of Rus-
sian troops through Roumanlau territory for
two years.

SPRIOBTLY PERSONAL CONTEST BETWEEN
BUTLER AND COS, OF NEW-YORK— BOLD
PROPOSITION OF BUTLER TO ELECT OEN.
SHIELDS, AND WSAT CAME OF IT.'
^wtalDbpaa* to IWao-rort ZISMa
Wasbinqton, April 5.— In the House to-
day Qen. BnUer created a flutter among the
Democrats by intrbdndng a resolution to pro-
ceed to the election of a Door-keeper, and
naming Gen. Shields as a mitimed sol-
dier, who had fought in two wars,.
and whom Bntier desired to have de-
clared elected. Mr. Cos, of New-York,
and othen claimed . this was not a question of
privilege, and during the discussion that fol-
lowed some sharp repartee occurred between
Butier and Cox. Qenenlly Butler carries off
the honore in the personal wrangles of this
kfiid in which he frequently becomes involved,
but to-day he was not sueeessf ul. Mr. Cox said
Butler did not show much appreciation for
Shields when he assisted in e jeetinghim from the
Honse several yeare ago, when Shidds came with
a large majority at his back as a member. But-
ler's conduct now was like giving Shields the
crumbs from the table from which he had been
driven. He taunted Bntier with making an ef-
fort to return to the^emocratic Party, and gave
poignacy to the dart by referring to Butier's
vote to seat Dean, and his vote yesterday to re-
tain Polk. This was a keen thrust at Butier,
and his discomfiture was enjoyed by
the Bepublicans even more than by the Demo-
crats. Butler in replying to Cox referred to the
" shoo fly " controversy with that gentieman
during the Forty-second Congress, and said
he would be mereiful upon this occadon, to
which Cox responded that he asked no merey.
Upon this Butier brought in his " shoo
fly, don't bodder me " retort of several
yean ago, but it sounded like an
old joke and failed to produce any effect what-
ever. DuringthecontroversymembeiJerowded
about the antagonists and grinned their encour-
agements to each in tum. The scenes resem-
bled those which may be witnessed almost any
day in the yard of a public school during the
recess hour, when two bullies are contending
for the mastery. After spending two honn in
this hilarious fashion, the House tired, of the
fun and voted to postpone the matter until
Monday. Bntier was more annoy^ at Cox's
taunt about his effort to return to the Demo-
cratic Party than he cares to acknowledge, and
for the reason that it contains a charge ,which
borders very dose upon the truth. If
not striving to return to the Democ-
racy, he is at least prepariiig to
leave the Republican Party and start an
independent movement in polities, plant-
ing himself upon his financial' heresies.
He is now engaged in perfecting arrangements
to stump every county in Massachusetts in be-
half of his financial hetorodoxy, and hopes to
draw tnffldent votes from both parties to
achieve a genuine success, or to fight himself
into such a position that he may lie attleto
dictate terms to one party, or accept terms
from the other, according as his personal inter-
ests dictate. His 'vote for Dean was to give him
some standing among the Democrats in Massa-
chusetts, and his vote for Polk was to improve
his opportunities to further his interests.iwlth
the Southern members, because he hasalurkisg
hope that the party which he expects to bui^d up
will become national in its proportions, and. of
course. Gen. Butier expects that he will grow In
stature with it.
TBE SOUTBEBN PBOSECUTIONS.
WADE HAMPTON'S PROPOSITION TO TBE
PRESIDENT TO STOP ALL PROCEEDINGS
ON BOTH BIDES, EXCEPT THOSE AOAINST
PATTERSON AND KEMPEB — OFFSETTING
FEDERAL PROSECUTIONS WITH POLITICAL
CASES.
aptetallHtfiUkk to Ott Ntto-TorX Stnua
Wasbington, April 5'. — It is understood
that the Preddent has redelved a letter from
Wade Hampton, containing a proposition to ex-
change prisoners, as it were, or, in other words,
to drop political litigation in South Carolina in
the cases pending on both ddes. There are a
good many indictments pending before i the
United States Courts for violations of the Beeon-
Btructioa and other Federal laws affecting the
rights of citizens in the South, which
have remained untried for a long
time for various . reasons — some, because
the persona Indicted could not he found ; others,
because of the disappearance of witnesses, or
the general indifference that has arisen since
the finding of the indictments. The statement
in regard to Hampton's letter is that
it proposes that if the Federal Govern-
ment will enter a nolle prosequi in all
these pending Federal i cases that come
under the Ciril Rights and Reconstruction laws,
the State Qovemment shall dismiss all the
cases pending which have any political charac-
ter whatever, except the indictments against
Patterson and Kempton, the latter having tieen
a former State Treasurer. There is no indication
what the Preddent'a views of such a propod-
tion may be, but it is fair to say it will not meet
the approbation of Senator Patterson. Nor
does it seem quite fitir to make any exdudons
from the exchange proposed oa one dde and
not on the other. Leaving out of all contro-
versy the question of the guilt or innocence of
Senator Patterson under the indictment, it ia very
evident that the only purpose of his prosecution
was political. Probably the better way would
be to try all the cases on both ddes,
speedily and honestiy, without 'regard to
politics, and let the verdict rest upon
the evidence of guUt or innocence. A politieal
trial, so called, can do very littie harm, if law
and justice make the deoidon without the inter-
ference of political influences. There is very
little doubt that the proposition would be ob-
straeted as much as posdble In the interest of a
class of freeh criminals who come before the
Federal courts for defrauding the Government
of its revenues, and who would Insist that they
too should be Induded in the list of those who
'are to be seat out free from the eotirta. There
is, indeed, a story afloat that indictments are
preparing against the revenue offlcen who made
recent arrests for illegal distilling, -with the
purpose of balancing them against the criminals.

he intended to press tiie bill to a vote to-

Mr. Conkllng jdemrecated night sesdons, and

man indsted t1 at the bill would not be voted
on at all unli as in a night sesdon, and he
desired to pi ms | the bill to a vote before

the Senate on that point, moved that when the

that the motioi i w. la carried by 32 to 31, being

attempt will be mac le to load the bill down with
ainendments, and i bsolntely destroy its chances
of passage in jthap way, or to force the com-
promise that Has Been talked of. The outiook
grows much bifighter in favor of the passage of
the Judiciary ibill^ without extendve modifica-
tion, the chants being still doubtful whether a
majority of the Senate will come squarely up to
that high stan lard.

REPORT OF THt SDB-COMUITTEE OF TBE
BOUSE UPECIAL COMMITTEE ON TBE
SUBJECT AdJ>PTED BY THE FULL COM-
MITTEE.
Washinot jn, April 5.— The report of the i
sub-committe< of the House committee charged
with the eond ieratioi^of the method of elect-
ing a Preddei it and Vice-Preddent was sub-
mitted to thel full committee last night, and
agreed to by one majority. The most important
feature in their proposisd amendment to the
Const tution of the United States ia that the
electoral votes and fraction thereof of
each person |vo|ed for as Preddent la
any State fhall be ascertained by
multiplying his entire popular vote therein by
the whole number at the Electoral votes of the
State, and dividing the product by the aggregate
popularvote of tbls S tate fordl persons voted for
as President, and th i quotient shall be the num-
ber of electoral rol es and fraction thereof to J
which such perso i i iball be entitled, udng {for :
such fraction thr e < lecimals and no more. '
The amendme it s dedgned to preserve the
relative power of th( i smaller States. The com-
mittee say on thi ( si ibject :
" The small St ite i ate now overelaufdied by
the present £3ect >ta 1 system. It bos happened
already that the i i>t< of Neiw-York, cast solid by
general ticket, h ts decided the election by a
few thousand nuk, or ty, and has not only settled
the question for i n iuion voters of the State of
New-Vork. but aa tii st a majority the other way
of the 8,000,0< D who are votera of the
United States. ' he i practical effect of the
Electoral system la: been to increase the rela-
tive tm .ortance a id power of the large States,
and the practice < f t oting by general ticket was
introduced by th( la rge States for that purpose,
and when introdi icell all were compellmi to fol-
low it" I J
Representative/ Hunton, of the committee,
proposed an amandment in substance that in
case of dispute ia any State as to the Electoral
vote, the electwn shall be dedded by the
highest judicial tribunal of such State, and the
vote shall be cotthtel unless both houses shall
exclude it. A|th<ugh no serious objection

INDIAN TEBBITOBT INVESTIGATION.
TBE SENATE COMMITTEE ON TERRITORIES
AND ITS JURISDICTION- TESTIMONY AS
TO THE SCHOOL FUND EZPENDITUBE8.
WaaHnoTON, April 5.— The Senate Commit-
tee on Territoriea, investigating affairs in the Indian
Territory, met tUa morning to pass upon tha ques-
tion of the eommiltee's junadiction to inqnire into
the ^shnraements of the general funds of the five
Indian nations in the Indian Territory. CoL W. P.
Adair aod D. H. Ross, the Cherokee delegation, pre-
sented an official tabnlar statement of the condition of
the f onda of the Cherokee Nation. The delesates
stated that temporary loans from the school to the
generd fond had been effected by aathority of the
ConneiL These loans were from the surplna of the
Bchool fund, hnt were invariably refunded in a month
or so from the iteneral fund. Toe acbool fand had
never been embarrassed by these loans, a.d the
money waa aaed aolelv to meet ttie current expenses
of the CoaneUors of the Indian Territory.
Mr. John B. Moore, one of the deleeatea from the
Oreeka, in his anmment stated that the expen^tes of
delegates to Waahin.ton did not exceed $5,000 a
year, and if one-half the time spent by the commit-
tees of Conjtress in considering Terrilorial bills
and other measures destructive to their very exist-
ence wonid cease, settlement could be effected whieh
would remove the necessity of his nation aending
any delegations here.
The committee went into aeeret aession upon the
qoestion of inrlsdiction. and, after some time soent
therein, derided to consider the protests from the
Indiana agdnst the inqairy into the disbursement of
the general funds, and vote npon the matter at the

with conspiracy to defraud the Government

not guilty. The court said the money belonged
to I^rkmau, Brooks & Co.. or their representative,

stroeted the jury to brine in the verdict which they
did without leaving their seats. The defendants of-
fered no evidence whatever, but were acquitted on

I The Cabinet session to-day was of no ex-

exigaKed in the coolie trade, and such vessels will be
taken to the most convenient port and deliv-
ered to the proper United States officers, to be dealt
with accordlncr to law. The text of these instructions
has been prepared, and the naval order will be regu-
larly issued on Monday. The Cabinet engaged in the
discussion of other matters, but with no results of
actual public importance. No appoint^rents of more
than ordinary consequence were agreed upon, and
very little buMness of a routine character was trans-
acted. _

PINOHBACK ON LOVISIAKA MATTERS.
Washington, April 5.— Ex-Gov. Pinchbaek,
of Louisiana, had an interview with the President
last night, in which he took occasion to express his
views concerning the needs of that State. He
represents tbe interview to have been of a
pleasant and satisfactory character. Mr ' Pinch-
back says that the State has now the best
Governor ot any within his recolleetion. and
that the people eenerally are better satisfied
tban heretofore with the condition of public slfairs,
idthoogh the people there, as elsewhere, complain of
lutrd umes. The only thing of which Mr. Plnchback
complains Is that the few children nearly white in
the public schools in New-Orleanshavebeen required
to leave them. They should, he savs, have been per-
mitted to remain untU faded out by the increase of
years. His own children were included in the num-
ber removed by the school authorities.

To.day Hr. W. S. Blaaeliard, of the KetropoUtan
Bank, arrived and Ijegon a ^^tailad examination
of alfairs. Tho estate of Joseph W. Boghee
here will not realize moeh, as the whole of the teal
estate is heavily mortgaged. It appears tliat be
built up his repntstion for wealth on borrowed
capital, legally and illegallr, and hia ill-sotten
gains have been sunk in pork and other apeeala-
tions, bat have not been used to clear his
real estate. Some of the forzed paper
roDS back as long as three years.
Mr..BlaTKhard says tbe firm win be able to pay in
f oil, bnt it will take all their sarplns earnings. Some
time ago, when affairs here became entanj^ed, Bo^
bee having drawn heavily on account of al^esed
purciiases of walnut lumber, which did not appear
in tbe yard when looked for, Joseph fumed over to
the firm a large amount of real estate for indemnity,
Tbe banks of this city nearlr all escaped. Fletch*

BosTOK. April 5. — The developments in tiie
Holt ft Bogbee forgery ease to-dt^y have been JoL
important. The whole amount of forged paper held
by Boston banks is $229,063 54. and is distributed
as follows : Exchange Bank, $63,698 87 ; Bank of
Commerce, $34,711 68 ; Blackstone Bank. $73,-

H. Biehardson. of Biehardson, Hill ft Co., ia

$19,208 30 of the ruined firm's notes, having sold
somewhat less tlian $3,000 worth of th«m before
discovering their fraudulent character. The bank
officials axe disposed to be lenient with Holt ft Bng-
bee, and it is stated on wiiat appears to be good an*
thority that they wiU not be forced ii^to banicruptcy.
The belief is also gaining ground that the firm'a avail,
able assets win more than offset all liabilities, nn*
less furtoer criminality on the part of Joseph^
Bogbee should be brought to light. .

f otmd thkt tUncs wers gnatly bebindluiul. It
teems impocslbte to complete the buUdiogs by
the Ist of Uay, and, altboagh the greatMt*e-
tlTlty reigni 1» every direction, the time la
maeh too short for the amoant of work yet to
be done. The grand palace upon the Trocadero
has been nearly completed, and the Interior haa
jnst been given np to the decorative painters.
The central tower, whith oan now be ae«ii ttoak
all parta of Faria, la not yet flnlahed, bot It will
be ready in three or four weeka. infnmtoflt
the paviliena of the different nationa are going
np rapidly. The Chineae are the farthest ad-
vanced, perhaps, and a gronp of workmen from
the Celestial Empire is now working upon the
Interior with an aaaidnity that astonishes
the French. One of the English honses is
nearly done, and the other was raised while I
was on the gronnda. The Egyptian and Per^
sian houses are nearly complete, and the Swiaa
ebUet has been finished so far aa the ootside la
concerned. Already we have a dozen eottacies,
pavilions, or chftlets. and begin to form some idea
oC how the grounds will look some two months
hence. When I say that things will not be
finished by the 1st of Hay, I do not mean to be
understood that-the opening will nottake place.
On the contrary, the grounds and buildings will
be In a far more advanced state than thoae of
Vienna, and there will be no obstacles to the
ceremony of inauguration. Bnt after that some
three weeks will be required to clean np the
grounds, and get everything in order, so that
visitors arriving about the 1st of June will be
early ehongh at the Exposition. The exhibitors
or their agents mast arrive by the Ist of Mav,
but they will require at least three weeks to get
theirgoods property placed and all the sections
in order. The gr&nd buildings upon the
Champ da Mara are very far advanced, and
hundreds of workmen arti. now engaged in open-
ing the cases that have arrived. Holland is
about the furthest advanced of any country, and
next come Sweden and Norway.
While upon this subject t may put tn a word
of advice to those who intend to take season tick-
ets, and that is to bring photographs with them.
The Directors intend to demand that the phb-
togjaph of the person shall accompany
the permanent cards. The price of the
season tickets is too high. The sum
of 100 francs is demanded, and only a
limited number of persons will go in 100 times.
A hundred days means three months, and not
Tnany foreigners will remain for that time, or if
they do, thev will not be apt to enter the Expo-
sition grounds 100 tlmss. Since the price of
entry is only one franc, it will be an economy to
pay each day. It is very probable, also, that
Sunday will be a free day. The subject is now
under diseuasion. M. Krantz and the members
of the commission propose to open the doors to
the public two Sundays in each month, but cer-
tain members of the Municipal Council of Paris
demand that every Sunday thall be a free day.
The argumeat is that the people pay for the
sums voted for the Exposition, and are, there-
fore, entitled to certain privileges. Up to 1849
the principle of the gratuity of Sunday always
existed, and in 1835 the public paid only 4
sons entry on that day. During that Exposi-
tion there were 26 Sundays. There were
2.196,268 entries on those days, and the total
namlier of entries was only 4,431,4S9. In
1 H67 no difference was made in the price, and
the number of entries on Sundays was only
1,541,141, the totar number of visitors being
8,076,4.")8. This shows how large a number of
persons there are in France who are prevented
bv the price from entering the Exposition. All
the citizens of the country contribute indirectly
to the sum of 30,000.000 francs voted, and
benre there is some reason in giving those who
are unable to pay a chance to see the great en-
terprise. It is estimated that this would cost
1,500,000 francs, but since the Republic votes
that sum for the Marshal to give public fStes, it
mijtbt vote a similar sum for the poor.
The appearance of the City of Paris has
changed very materially durine the past few
weeks, and uil the streets are being dressed up
for the Exi>03ition. The new Avenue de 1' Op-
era has been completed, and a magnificent thor-
oughfare it is. It will soon become one of the
most fashionable streets of the city, taking the
filace, when the asphaltom sidewalks have been
aid. of the old Boulevard des Italjens. All the
streets have been thoroughly cleaned; trees
have been planted along the boulevards; all
the roads about the Bois de Boulogne have been
newly macadamized, or are now undergoing
that operation. We are to have one innova-
tion ; the tramway lines have made their way
across the avenue of the Cliamps Elys^s,
much to the disgust of the persons who drive
out to the Bois in their carriages, and the lines
now run to the Exposition from Ul parts of the
city. As I write, one of the large bronze
statues that are to adorn the palace is passing
along the boulevards, drawn by twenty horses
and followed Ky a crowd. On Saturday I saw
also the gran d equestrian statue of Charlemagne,
which weighs 50,000 pounds. The catalogue
of this Exposition will be extremely Interestiag,
' and the first edition will be ready for the open-
ing. It wiU b« sold far one franc in all parts of
the city, and in M the hotels.
Speaki g of statues reminds me that the Mu-
nicipal Council o>' Paris haa resolved to place
Soitoux's statue of theRepobllo upon the Champ
de Iklars during the Exposition. This baa given
rise to some apecalations regarding the mffer-
ent statues of the Bepnblio and the proper way
of symbolizing that form of government. The
ancients do not seem to hive had any allegor-
ical figure representing the Bepnblic, but tome
of the renaissance arUsta hegan ta give shape
to the different attributes of the Qovamment of
Venice. It was only after the French Bevolu-
tion that an attempt was made to symtioliie it
as a whole. The first who tried it was Debu-
conrt.who represented the BepubUo as a woman
seated, surrounded by sheaves of grain, holding
the rays of lightning in one hand, and an olive
branch in the other. Then came Boizot, who
symboUzed '• Eepublican France." In
the salon there was a statue on-
titled " The Triumph of the BepuMc*
and two years later BegnanlVexpoaed his "Lib-
erty or Death." The Bepnblio of- 1848 was
more fertile in allsgorieal flgnrea, and the Gov-
ernment offered prizes for the beat detdgna, but
the works presented were little better than
satires upon the subject. The majority of the
artists represented the Hepubllo aa a virago or
a fury — a woman with severe menacing fea-
tures and disordered hair, brandishing abroken
sword or an exterminating lance. In 1840
Charles Landello exposed a serene figure, with
a crown of oak lasTea Mid aa oUvo btaach in
the hand. In the B«lon of 1860 one taw the
bronze statnea made after the models accepted
bv the jury of 1848. Aftarwmd we lud

THE SX-PBB8IDENT IN THE TtrBXIBB CAPITAL
—HIS VISIT TO THE SULTAN— A PRESENT
OF AN ARAB STEED— AN INVITATION FROM
ORAND D17KE NICHOUlS OBOLINED.
A correspondent writes from Constantinople,
Uareh 10, to the Xjondoa Timet as follows:
" An Incident of s pleasing naturs In these trenhlsd
times was the visit hers of Oan. Qraat, the ex-Fresl'
dent ot the United States. On his arrival at Snyraa
on the 22d of Febmary, he reeeirsd a iirman from the
Ports giring the VaodkJla permission to visit CoW-
stantisople. An officer went as far as QaUlpoU to
meet the General. He arrived here acsonipaoled by
his wife and yonneest son. One of the Sultan's
aides de camp immediately conveyed the eongrata-
latloQs of his Usjssty upon the General's arrival la
Turkey, and , his rearet that the sad e<mdltlon of
affairs prevented the General's receiving such
honors as Turkey would only be too glad to accord
to one who, as Frsstfent of th* United States, bad
always beau a friend of the Ottoman Goverament.
Had the General oome in time of peace, the Sultan
would have given him a palace ; but now hs came
to a hoase of monming, and tbe welcome would
have to be the welcome of sorrow. The G«n.
STsl sent bis eomplimeats to the Sultaa, not only
for tills stteBtloD, but for the attentions be bad re-
ceived through the Turkish Empire. H« laid he
perfectly nuderstood the iitustion. and would
lather not be aay trouble to the Saltan at a time
when the ereatest of trouble! rested upon hli
throne sod his home. This was followed by an
audience with the Saltan. The interriew was
strictly private, and was marked by the absenee of
all ceremony. The Sultan repeated his regret that
the condition of Tarkey prevented his making Gen.
Grant hia spucial KQeat and siving him a review of
troops and a palace. Beyond this and the General's
expression of'conrteoos regret st the calamity which
had fallen upon Turkey, tfaero was noaUnsion to
polities. The Snitsn. however, ssked the General to
accept as a souvenir of the visit one of his best Arab
horses. 'This the General would have decMned ; bnt
an Intimation that the ref usml might be misunder-
stood led to an acceptance, and an Arab steed of
dapple.gray wiU soon be on its way to America lo do
service under one who, tn addition to other
attributes, is one of the finest horsemen in a nation
famont for horsemanship, S2id who rejoices in noth-
loK so much as in the grace and the majesty of a
tme-blooded charger.
** In addition to this, there was foriber honor to the
General in the shape of a dinner in tbs War Offlee,
attended by all the Cabinet, Dy Ushamet AU Pasha,
the military attaches ot foreign Embassies and Le-
gations, and the General's own party. The General
had a long conversation with the Premier aboat the
war. who assured him that, although the day might
be dark now, there were days when the sup shone j
that Turkey had had her day before, and would have
it again, just as France had within this very centurv.
I am told, also, on gcod authority, that hia Highness
thought that the downfall of France in 1870 was the
severest blow dealt to Turkey, and that if France
had been in the fullness of her ancient strength the
war would not have gone so far. Gen. Grant-bad also
an interesting convenation with Mehemet All Pasha,
who declsredthst If behsd shown as much fltmness
in the resistance of evil and injudicious counsels
and orders as Gen. Grant had shown in resisting the
interference of the Lincoln Cabinet during the srar,
he miKbt have tbroWn the Rtuslans into the Ijaaabe.
To this sn^^gcstiou the General responded bj one of
the brilliant flashes of silence for which he is re.
nowned. Another Incident of the General's stay
was a eordial Invitation from the Oommaader of the
Bnssian Army to pay him a risit at San Stefsiio.
This was a sore temptation, aa it came In tbs most
flattering manner, and the visit would have beeh of
the greatest interest to a soldier who had com-
manoed at one time 1,100.000 men. Bnt
the General felt that he was in a certain
sense the gnest of tbs Turks ; that they had
done him all the honor in their power, and that
it would be a poor return of their courtesy
to go as a guest to the army which was at the gatas
of their capital ; so he sent a coorteoos excuse to the
Russian commander, and did not visit the Bnastao
lines. The General 1* In excellent health, and has
Mssed throngh the andent and storied lands of the
Esst with quite an American rapidity. Hs is said to
be an earnest, pushing trsveler, patueleis in his
journeys, and ready for any trip, no matter what
fatigue It Involvos. The General left tiiis on the 8th
for Athens, where he will be the guest of the King of
Greece, snd remain four daya. Thence he goes to
Naples, and will join his daochtsr, Ura. Bartoris, In
Borne, where he will remain for soma weeks.
"Throughout this journey Gen. Grant has received
Toysl honors. On board the Vandalla, whenavar he
leaves on ofllelal risits, the yards are maimed 'aad 21
guns are fired. Of course, tills is by the oidar of the
American Government, and I only mentioa it to
show the respect In which the ex-Frasideat is hsU
by the TTifited States. The General hlaisalf hasta-
dsavored, as far as possible, to avoid these spaelfl
honors, aiod has only accepted tfaehl when their re-
jection would have been ungtarious ; but, of course,
when every oBeial of the American Qovenmunt la
under order* to lie in wait for the Geaenl and
do honor to him, these eompUmsnts become
a part, and It Is to be feared an esaeting
gait, of his journey. The General's many friends
1 England will.be glad to know that, although his
Tsception there ' was far from royal — was. In tact,
simply such honor as ia pal*) to men of eminence — ^he
considars his memories of Esglaad as the plaasastest
of his trip. . * if I were not an American,' he is re-
ported to have said, '1 would be an Englishman.
And if I did not live in Amsriea. I would live in
England.* I have no doubt that oar homely, hearty
Esi^h way of receiving Gen.' Grant mads a better
impression upon bta mind, snd was more In
eonsonanea with the extreme slmpUaity of
bis tsste^ than the pomp and show
which has followed him everywhoe else.
An incident came to my knowledge the other day of
the pains ths General took to deny a story that b«
was offended at the way in whieh bebadbeeq trsated
by the Prince of .Wales. Some mischievous Paper
printed a story that tfa« Geneial waa 'grievea, M-
eause at Uarlhoroogh House at dinner het wss not
permitted to sit next to the Emperor of Brail], but
was degraded down the table Into the sodety qf mart
peers lias Lord SaDstrary and Lord Bsaiiwutlelda
The Genarsl momstly denied the story, and said
that no one could have shown him more attsatlon
than the Prioee of Wales, and that he bad car-
ried away the best posrible* feelings toward the
Prinet. HUtripts'Saatlaad interested' him deeply,

BeeolTsr before tbe Referee^ and to make
sndi objeetions as should ae^ to be de-
manded In the interests of their ellanta, on eondHlon,
bowevez, that they should prove their ownership of
bonda wbldi they claimed to own. Tectazday waa
aet down for the aeeonnttng to oonttnue, it having
been began a short time a<o and postponed to await
Judge Daniels* de^sion. At the time of the pcct-
ponement the attomesi for Charles and William
Sggal and Charles Talbot had made objections to
the admisaion ot eertidn vonchera, and ez-Jndge
Spsnoer, tbe Referee, bad listened to srgon^ent npon
Hieee objeetions. Yesterday, when the zefersnoe
opened, there were present lb. liuke F.
Coana, . Aaslstaat Attoxney^General ; Mr. IL R.
Baoon. representtng the Erie Railway Company ;
Mr. C. Ii. Atterhory, representing the ReoelTer ; Mr.
Henry Arden and Mr. Rlthn Root, for certain judg-
ment eredltofs, and Mr. J. H. Bensbawe for the
Faimeta* Loan and Trart Company. Mr. Heoahawe,
when the Referee announced his readlneu to pro-
ceed, asked who Meesrs. Root and Arden iHipeared
for. Mr. Root asked to have noted an application
for Albert De Betz, Jules Ijevita, and Moritx Lewin
Borehard, as judgment oredlton. Mr. Henshawe
asked that Mr. Bool and Mr. Arden be stricken
from the raeord aa attomers for Sggal and
Talbot, as he appMffed for them htmselt A
lona argument followed, in whieh it ap-
peared that Lanin^ McMOlan Ss Olnck.
attorneys for Charles and WUUam Ziggal, and
Charles Talbot, had assigned judgments against the
Erie Railway to J. Talman Waters, Jr.. who bad in
torn Assigned tbem to Mr. iierbert B. Turner, of
Tomer, Lee h McClnre, attorneys for tbe Farmers'
Loan and Trust Company, for whom Mr. Henshawe
appeKred before the Referee. Mr. Root made some
severe allosions to tbe buying up of the judgment
creditors, and intimated that it waa an effort to
coveruptheReesiver'a»eeannta.Mr.Root,bavuigseen
only the asalgniaents from Waters to Tomer, insist-
ed upon proof of the assignment by the fflnala and
Talbot, and a dalay of half an hour occurred before
they wore prodneed. It was then seen that William
Z^al bad surrendered a judgment of aboat $15,-
000 for 910,287: that Charles ^iggal had given up
one of 92.392 73 tot $2,392 73. its full value, and
that Oeotge TiUbot had surrendered a judgment of
94.113 17 for 92,000. These were aJl dated
April 4.
Mr. Arden having asked for a mllng from
the Referee ni>on Mr. Henshawe's represen-
tations, and request that Mr. Root .and him-
self be stricken from the record, the Ref-
eree expressed himself as satisfied with the
proof, and directed that Mr. Henshawe be entered as
appeuing for the judgment creditors named in the
asaignnjonts. and for whom Messra. Root and Arden
had formerly appeared. Mr. Bacon now objected to
the appearance of Messrs. Root and Arden for De
Betz, Borchard, and Ijevita, and asked if their right,
to appear ss owners of the bonda aUefred to be held
by their eliexits had been proved. Mr. Root then
argued that the order of Judge Daniels was soffi-
eleat to allow them to come into the
referenee and make such objections to the
accounting of the Receiver as they should deemiit.
Mr. Bacon was Inflesible in his demand that the title
of the alleged bondholders should be proved before
Messrs. Root and Arden were allowed to come in,
uid until their owi^ershlp was certified before the
Referee, William Allen Butler, he would insist that
they bad no right before Judge Spencer whatever.
He declared that unless they proved title, which thev
had ample opportonity to do. tt would be a mode of
supererogation for the Referee to entertain their ob-
jecUons to the aeeonnttng. and to find out afterward
that they were not the owners of tbe bonds.
Ex-Judge Spenoer, tbe Referee, asked for an hour
to consider the matter, and a recess wss t\ken, at
the end of whieh he submitted a written decision.
He recited the order of Judge Daniels, in Supreme
Court, and tbe appMcation of Root and Arden, aod
then went on to say: "The order and opinion of the
court presented clearly hold and direct that before
the said parties, petitioners in the action, are enti-
tled to" nodee of or appearance in this ref-
erence or. .aceounttno, or in any proeeed-
ines In this action other than the reference
by said order mads to William Allen Butler. Esq.,
the said parties must prove and establish their title
as owners ; or tbe title of either of tbem aa owners
to the bonds mentioned and described in their peti-
tion, or to some part or portion of them, and the
amount of bonds bo held. It being understood by the
Referee that said bonds are claimed to be of that
class eecnred by tbe second cDusolldsted mortgage
mentioned in tbe complaiDt in this action, and
tbezefore this condition or term of said order not
having been complied with, tbe right of appearance
of the said attorneys for said parties Is denied."
This dedston (bavinc been rendered, Mr. Arden
moved that the accounting be delayel until be had
opportonity to prove the title of his clients to the
ownenhip of the bonds. The Referee decided not to
delay ^e accounting, and It aeeordin^y proceeded.
The affidaviU of w. P. Shennan. Treasurer;
Stenhen Little^ Auditor; Hugh J. Jewett, Receiver;
BlrdW. Speneer, Cashier; Augustus Stein, Stote-
ment Clerk, and Charies J. 8awtell«, Coupon
Cashier, were taken to the aecounts for December
and January. The accounting will be continued
until finished. Meesrs. Root and Arden left
soon after the Referee's decision, but not
until Mr. Otterbourg had suggested that they should
not be allowed to remain, as the aeeoQpting was in
no sense a public one. The Refevae a^d thit he
should continue it without permitting any improper
Interference with hU duties, as . he had understood
from a Justice of the Supreme Court that Jndse
Daniels' order was not intended to intermpt his
bnsineu aa Referee for passing upon the £rie ae-
coonts. ^

A Sixth-areniM c«r tbat paaaed thzongfa
Variek-stre^t on Its way down town last nl^t about
11 o'clock, had among ita ' paaaengera a well-dressed
woman, who might have left an impression upon
her felloW'pasaengara of being an eminently re-
spectable creature If it bad not been
for aa nafortnaate tndJdent that ooenrred; before
she left tbem. Wban near Grand-street
she expre«Md a da^re to get off, and tiie conductor,
with conunandabla celerity, rang the bell for the
driver to atop. The woman made an attempt to
rush precipitately from the platform before
the ear bad become stationazy, aad the con-
ductor, fearing she would bo injured, took
her gentlv by tbe ana and requested
her to waft. In reply, the conductor received
a stinging blow in tbe month. Still he held on to the
woman, who followed up her first blow wltti sundry
Ucks,. bites, and acratenes, inflicted with evident
malioe upon the peiaon of tbe defenseless condsotor.
^e ear having stopped, the woman ehangM her
xalnd.and tbooght she ** wouldn't gat off jost yet."
The conductoc then informed her 'that he would
wait until he saw a policeman, when he would place
her in cbaroa ot the oflioer. The rash condnator di^
npt know the woman's nature, for she f^ upon that
Innocent apd well-meaning offioer with rsdoubled
feiocity, administering a fresh and more vicorous
biting, pounding, and scratching than be bad suffered
before. The aympathies of several of tbe passen-
gers were by this time aroused, and, laying bold of
the mi^niided woman, Uiey pKunptly and violently
e^eoted her from the oat, not without aome danger of
b^ng ebewed up, bnt with Immense satisfaction to
several of tbe passangers who had i^iproved of but
bad not participated in tbe banishment ot tbefero-
ciotta but re^ectably-dreaaed .ereatuze.

THE PXCIPIO RAILBOAD TTJVTUX^ BTLU
Mr. Batasd. of Delaware, si>oke on tbe Peelfle
Railmad Funding bill, reviewing the faistor7 sC tLa
r^lroeds and th«r eonstraetion. The blU of the Ju>
<UelsT7 Committee had been termed a violation oC
tbe obltgatton of a eontiaet. There had sever been
a greater or more palpable mUnoBier of a neaaure.
It was a measure to secure the fnlfillmeut of a eoa-
tract. The roads were iroiug on dlstributinK tbelr
property, and in 1898 the Qovetament could
do nothing bnt relinquish its ^UHyi or
tdke a road with first mortgage bonds
the principal of which amounts to mora tbaa It
would cost to build a new road. Ha crittdaed tbe
law which permitted a oonstmetton that the inter-
est, amanutmg to twice the principal, was not pey^
able until maturity. He would not afcree that the
words "amend, alter, and repeal " oonld be deprived
of the meaning nnivenal use and aeeeptaaee had
given them. If theyhsdanjsignificanoeneatbeaeta
of 1862 and 1 864 are open at any time to amendment.
He maintained that the charter and the eontraet
were convertible terms ; the charter was the contract
and the contract was the charter. This wap the
view of tbe Supreme Court and the Inceniooa dis-
tinction made by Senator Hill and Mr. Shellabarser
could not stand. -The apparent indifference wltb
which the people o{ this country eee tbem- .
selves saddled with enormous debts amaited
htm. When be contrasted this indifference
with the excitement over propositions to
advance the salaries of the Chief Execntiva^^ Judges,
Cabinet ofBeers, and members, he could but feel
amazed. There seemed to be no popular oompreben-
sloo, and he somettmes feared little Coagresaioaal
comprehension, <A the enormity of these amonnta.^
The report from wtiich he had quoted stated that one'
of the agenU of tbe Central Pacific Road bad been
Mid 930.000 for the arduous duty of apeadUng the
Winter in Washington and watching the lnt«eats <rf
ths Central Pacific Road. He did not know what
salaries were paid the officers of these corporations,
iHit supposed they were proportionate. This n>onfly
came from the GoTemment, and every dollar lepze-
sented tbe sweat and toll of some of Its dtizeuL
Mr. Tbcbuax said he would ask the Senate to alt
the ntetter out to-day.
Mr. Ratok — ^I hope the Senator wQl do ao . sud
thing. This qaestion is too large to he sat oat tonda^.
Mr. JoH^*8TOX went into an examination of tbe
financial relations between the railroads aad the
Goremment, and the statement of the aeoo^nt aa
presented by different authorities, and said tbe sitae-
tion was one of peril to the Govemmrat aad to the
railroads. There was danirer that the road mSgdht
come into the possession the Government, and this
he would consider a greater evil than the loss of - tbe
whole debt. Although there was, in his opinion,
tbe fullest suthoritr for the passage of the Judiciary
bill, he favored an annual payment of a fixed aaza la
bonds of the United States.
Mr. siA&GSXT, of Califomia, said aU aides were
ftgi^«dihnt fromeprorlMons should be made for a Ask-
ing fund, but he regarded tbe bill reported by tbe Ju*
dici&#y Committee as calculated to give rise to aa-
hmited litigation.
In reply to a question by Mr. EcinranM, 1&. SaB-
OCST said' he did not believe the power to amend or
repeal was understood by Coufn^ss or the roads
when the bill passed, as oonfarring a right to declare
the prineinal or interest now due, or tbat more than
8 per cent, of the net eamlncs should be paid In. On
the principle embraced in tne bill of tbe Judiciary
Com.mittee, the Government could cancel or amend
any of tbe provisions of a contract for
the construction of the Texas Pacific Road, and be
warned the friends of thai road against the praeedent
they might establish by the passage of this bill. He
summed up the advantages tiie Government had re-
ceived from the eonstmctton of the roads as enu-
merated in the decision of the Supreme Court.
Mr. Sargent gave way to Mr. Coxxuira. who said
the Senator from Ohio [Mr. Tburman] had snggested
tbat the Senate would be requested to coflse to a
vote to-day.
Mr. Truucak thought amnio time for debate bad
been afforded. Tbe bill had been considered ia tbe
last session of the Forty-fourth Congress, and he had
Introduced itacain on the second day after the meet-
ing of tbe present Congress. Why tbe bill had stsid
BO long in the Judiciary Committee was a chapter of
hlstorv he did not care to go into. Bot it reflected
no credit on some men who had imi>osed npon tbt
committee.
Mr. SAaGKKT resumed the floor and exai eased hii
readiness to go on. Mr. CovEXaDre asked blm te
give way for a motion to adjourn to Monday, to tedl
the wishes of the Senate.
Mr. TRrsuAN demanded the yeas aod nays, wbieb
were ordered, and the vote resulted, Feaa 3%

other one. They have bad cancn4ea where we did
not interfere with them, and whv did it not occur to
them to take that gentleman for* Door-keeper instead
of tho gentleman whom they deserted yesterday r
Again, why need any cancoseiron this question ) Why
say we will do something for him some other time 1
" Now ia the accepted Hme [laughter :] now is the
Jay of salvation "on this suestion of Door-keeper.
rLauzhter-I It may never tome again. It is only
while the lamp holds ont to bum that the vilest
Jnners may return." (Shouts of laughter.] The
name la flickering now. and lo I It may go ont be-
'w«n this and 7 o'clock, and no space left for re-
3«ztCaace, and then the shout shall go up to heaven,
JLOst ! lost aemin forever ! [Laughter.] "Why do
"** debate this question I U there a man who
««y» that Geo. Shields ia nnftt for this position I
No I What. then, is the objection » That he is too
rltforit; too good, too noble, to hold it; an^ that
the Boor-keeper's place W not fit for him. The only
reason I have to believe that It Is not fit for him, is
becanse its last tr^-o Incnmbents were not fit for It.
I should think the place might fairly bo fit for him,
becanse his ease seems to have been answered by the
(•It. "Better be a door-keeper in the house of the
Lord than dwell In the tents of the wii*ked." [Shouts
of laughter.] The oentleman from New- York [Mr.
Ooi] says that he shall vote accordlnz to the
orrlers of his party. I never vote according to the
orders of anybody under Goil. If I believe mv party
to be wroDg. whether I am a Democr.it ooposing the
extension ef slavery, or whether lam a Renubliean
opposing any wrong. I stand with those who stand
by me. and seethe li?ht an God gi ves me to see it,
imd not otherwise ; and party may eo to the place
where most parties — juddna from what I see on the
other side — will go. I will not alter my course oce
;ot or tittle. Vote the old man down if yon like:
vxite a caucus ; but when you come out of caucus, if
von do not bring tho old man In. then I say
bring us In some honorable Confederate soldier
withL his leg oflE. who once showed his lovaltv to the
cotmtry by figiiting for It in the Mexican war. and I
will vote for him against any civilian that you can
name. Now. Mr. Speaker, on the question erf order.
It has been decided th.Ht. when the Honse has not a
Speaker, it must elect him. It has been decided that,
When the House has not a Clerk it must elect him,
even although somebody may be acting as Clerk. It
has been decided that anvthing that pertains to
the organization of the Honse is first in order.
Therefore it Is that we first organize by the election
of a full corps of officers- That beine so. what I
claim is, that it is always within the competency of
the HouRe to say whether it will consider the ques-
tion, and I ask a vote upon the question whether the
Honse will consider, and whether the fiat of the
Speaker shall stand between a maimed, disabled
Boldier of two wars nnd the House.
Mr. Cox. of Xew.York— A word of a personal na-
ture in reply to the gentleman from Massachnsetta,
fMr. Butler.] That gentleman is always known to
be rich in iutrienes or a nnUtieal nature, and this is.
perhaps, one ot them. But I never knew him be^
lore to have any poverty of wit, or to repeat his old
wit again. So far as the Independence of
party ia concerned, I have never known it
to be shown uniil since he was beaten in
ihe Salem district. Now he is becoming
independent. He did not vote with his nartv yester-
day, and I did not vote with most of the friends on
xnS'^dde, so there is a parity betwe'-n ns there. So
f*r » independence is conc«med in voting for the
extension of slavery, I am not too old to remember
ihat he was a deleirate to the Cincinnati Convention.
rVoices — "VourLcan Charleston.") Yes. He com-
mitted himself twice on the slavery question, so tliat
he ought to be very lenient to other people.

him which the world does not know. fUaghter.] and
which count to his honor and integrity [laugh-

Mr. BuTLEB, (sitting down) — I see nothing to

After a loni dIscti5.«iion of the point of order
whether it was a matter of privilege, the Speaker d»-
•rlded that it was a question which should be anb-
ndtted to the House, pendine whicli. on motion of
Mr. Bbtebe, o! New- York, the whole subject was
postponed until Mondav by ft vote of 125 to 112.

A LAWYER'S RVNyEB REBUKED.
Officer Hugh Casey, doorman at the Jeflferson
Market Police Court, yesterday saw James Sands,
employed as solicitor of business for James D. Me*
! Clelland.taUdng to some women In the court-room,and
' being convinced that he was urging them to employ
counsel, Casey ordered him to desist. Sands became
abusive, and Casey nut him out of the court Sands
then threatened Casey, who finally arrested Sands,
and made a charge of disorderly conduct
against him. When tho case was called
; up McClelland appeared to defend Sands
and was prevented from passing the bar. Tiiis made
him ancry, and when he was admitted by Justice
KUbreth's order, he showered a tirade of abuse uxion
the Police in general and the oflgcers of the Jefferson
, Market Police Court in particular. Justice Kilbreth
' compelled Mr. McClelland to apoloj^ite. He then
told Mr. McClelland that the greatest abuse of pris-
oners was not so much their arrest and treatrrent by
the Police as the exaggerated roi^represontatioua of
! danger from shysters, and for this reason rules had
I recently been wisely adopted preventing these
, lawyers from soliciting prisoners in court, and for-
bidding them within the bar without the permission
of the Justice. He declared that the officers who had
interfered with bands were perfectly right and
should be upheld. Sands was discharged with a
warning not to repeat his offense.
OXTAILS OP THE ACCIDENT BY "WHICH TTTO
TOUXO MEN LOST THEIR LIVES.
From tht yiagara FaUt Gazette, April 3.
Two brothers, John and Patrick Reilley, re-
Eddizig at Chlppawa, Ontario, visited this place Mon-
day, CTossing the river in ordinary row-boats, one
brother arriving some time later In the day than the
otner. After tho business which they came over to
tzsasact had been, dispatched, the two men started
to return, about 6:30 o'clock in the evening. One of
^be two boats having been taken back to Chlppawa.
tha two brothers started to cross the stream together
ia the remaining craft. It is known that both the
fated men partook more or less liberally of intoxi-
cating drink while in the village, and In this fact lies
'he only explanation <'f their suicidal folly in chocs-
log the route they did when thev left Port Day for
ttwir Canadian home. For. instead of rowing up the
river the usual distance before attempting to
cross, the men oiHed directly for Chlppawa village.
Two or three parties who were at Port Day when the
cwo men started out noted the dangerous route
which they had taken, but as both the Reilley broth-
ers were knvwn to be well acquainted with the river,
".hev naturally supposed that wheU they found they
could not cross so low down the stream they would
pall np and cross in ono of the usual tracks. In ap-
narently utter ignorance of the rapidity with which
the treacherous current bore the boat down the
b'tream. the two brothers pulled steadily on their
way. As the boat swept lower and lower, the atten-
tion of others on the bank of the Hver become at-
iracte<l to the impending catastrophe. When the
boat, as seen from this shore, had apparently
gotten well over Into the strong Canadian
current, It had drifted far down the river, and at
last, when too late, the brothers appeared to realize
tbelr position. The boat was headed up the stream,
\Qd the men bent to their oars with desperate
energy. Flndinz that thtv wore powerless to stem
the current, and having drifted into close proximity
to the first of tbe terrible reefs at the bead of the
Canadian rapids, the two men were seen to aeliber-
Ately turn tiielr boat around and with steady strokes
pall their craft safely over two of the reefs. Tbe
watehersx)n this side of the river then lost sight of
both men anJ boat, but others on Street's Island
and In the Loretto Convent, on the Canada shore,
Ray that the boat s^ely jumped tbe third reef, when
boat and men disappeared iu the boiling rapidJs, and
Were never seen agaiiu
The snppofition is that when the men determined
to attempt shooting the reefs they had a faint hope
that tbev misht reach shore by taking advantage of
the comparativelv quiet water below tbe reefs— a
desparate stroirele for life, which proved to bo
fatua. Pieces or the boat were found the next day
la-tbe rtrer below the falls, but as yet nothing
has iMtn •••& of the bodies of the tmfortonate

A TERT ^VCB TANGLED CASE,
Messrs. A. 31. and John H. Sloan, who
formerly constituted a firm doing business in the
City of Savannah, Ga., were made the Assignees of a
policy issaed by the Equitable Life Insurance Com-
pany of this City. The second member of the firm
died. A. IL Sloan was afterward sued by John
"Wood and others, of Savannah, who procured a judg-
ment against him. The judgment not being satisfied,
Btdt was begun ia this City nirainat Sloan, judgment
was obtained, and the policy of insurance In the
Equitable Company was attached. To effect a re-
turn from the attachment, a suit was begun nnder a
[ provision of the new Code, in which not only A. M.
Sloan, but also the Sheriff and the Equitable Life
, Insurance Company were included as defendants.
The corporation admits the possession of tbe policy
indicated in the legal papers, and declares a willing-
ness to make an accounting of its value In compti*
I ance with an order -from the court. A new phase
' w.os given to the already complicated suit hy the ap-
' p earance of the Executors of the late John H. Sloan,
in tlia Snpreme Court. Circuit, yesterday, with a
; statement that they were the holders of a half in-
! terest in the policy, and a request to be admitted as

i 2fORE ERIE RAILWAY LI2I0ATI0NS. \
An order was procured some time ago from :
' Judge Davis, in theiSuprome Court, for an inspection j
of the boolts and accounts of the Erie Railway by |
' Isaac S. Fowler, the owner of 11 shares of the pre-
ferred stock of the railway company. Tbebooks had
been partly examined by Fowler, when the order
was revoked, on the ground that the law
nnder wixich it was granted had been
misprinted. A new application was then made for
an order to continue the examination of the books
on the ground that they were in the custody of the
eonrt. The motion was opposed, and papers were
prepared by the attorneys for tbe Erie B^way set-
ting forth that Fowler was not acting in good faith,
but in the interest of the McHenry party.
Argument was to have taken place on
the motion yesterday, before Jndee Donohne, in
Supreme Court, Chambers, but both parties sgreed
that an order, similar in character and limitations to
that made In the petition of De Betz and others, !
should be preparpd and entered before Judce Brady, i
and that an examination should be made at tbe same
time that the examination in the De Betz case takes i
place. Justice Donohne adjourned the ease for a
week to allow the other arrangement to go into effect.

An interesting and Important decleion waa
rendered at Jamestown, K. Y., on Thursday by T. P.
Grosvenor, the County ^dge ot OhantanjiuaOonttty.
on a demnxrer to a plea in abatement in tha criminal
proceeding agidnst the banker Henry (Hew*. ^^He
was indicted by a Grand Jury of what waa supposed
to be a regnlar term of the Cotirt of Oyer and Ter-
miner, and in his plea set forth tiiat both the ooart
and the Jury sat illegally. It seams that a recolar
term of the eonrt was appointed to be hal(^ at VfJ-
ville on Jan. 7, 1878. and that Judge Gtoorge Barker,
of the Supreme Court, was appointed to
preside thereat. The Judge, being iriolc. aanft
a letter to the Sheriff dlreeting him
to ' adfoum the court for a week, - and
to make the proper entrv on tbe minntes. On tiie
ad joomed day. Judge Barker being stUI ^ck. gave
the Sheriff & similar order of adjournment nntU Jan.

Supreme Court, appeared and opened the term of the
Oyer and Terminer, the County Judge and Jnstloea
of Sessioxis being j-resent. Tho Grand Jury whl'eh
found the &idictment against Mr. CHewa was thea
and there organized. Judge Groavenor snstaiueHr.
Clews' plea as to the illegaUty of the sitting of the
jury and of the court He holds that neither a
Supreme Court nor a County Judge has power to
adjourn tho Oyer and Terminer by a written diree-
tion to the Sheriff or Clerk and without going to tha
place where the court is appointed to be held. The
onlv power to adjourn Courts of Oyer and Terminer
ia that conferred by section 34 of ^e Code of Civil
Procedure, and may be exercised by any Judge pres-
ent, in tbe absence of a sufficient number niTJndgei
to hold the court. This decision establishes tbe Il-
legaUty of the indictment against Mr. Clews.
SUIS6 A CONTRAOTOB'S EXECUTORS.
The snit of Patriclc Bannon against Annie
McGrune and William J. Xealis, Executors of John
HcGrame, deceased, was decided yesterday in the
Superior Court before Judge S^ir. John UeGrame
contracted with the City to fill' and grade Fifth-
avenue from Elghty-plxth-street to Mount Morria-
square, but died before completing the worlc Pat-
rick Bannon was engaged by McGramo's Executors
to carry on the work for $1 20 per cnbie yard. He
completed $7,500 worth of work, and then ealled
upon Judge A. H. Alker. representative of Mo-
Grame's Executory for some money, claiming 50
per c«Ut. ot the valne of the work done whenever
tbe City gave a certiflcatcw Alker at first refused to
pay him. on the ground that he had agreed to wait
until the contract was completed. He finally gave
Bannon $1,500. which he said waa money, advanced
and not paid on the contract. Bannon accepted the
money on account, he said, and agreed to wait for
the remainder until the contract was completed, pro-
viding there was money due by the City. He after-
ward discovered that John McGrame had been paid in
advance by the City. He then repudiated the agree-
ment, stopped his work, and began his suit. Tbe
jury awarded him $G,255 CO.
RIVAL FACTIOXS.
At the opening of Part L of the Court of
General Sessions yesterday, the conrt-room was
thronged with Hebrews from the East Side, who
were witnesses in the case of Henry Bern-
stein, a florist, living at Broome and Allen streets,
on trial for shooting Louis F. Davis, a shoemaker,
of Xo. 30 Ludlow- street. The shooting
took place in the synagogue, at Ko. 70
E.o.'^t Broadway, while the congregation Tiferes
IstspI were at their dt-votlons on Jan- 13.
The congr**gatl n of which both the complainant
and defendant are members is dieted with rival
factions, who, >n addition to their dissensions in the
s\*nagogne, have taken sides in the Davis- Bern stein
prosecution, the friends of the prisoner clainiing
that the shootimr was entirely occidental while tbe
supporters of Davis are positive that the pistol was
discharged with the intention of injuring the com-
plainant. The testimony In tbe case was very con-
flicting, and the jury returned a^verdict only on a
minor count of the indictment, that charging assault
and battery, and recommended the prisoner to mercy.
Judge Sutherland sentenced him to the mitigated
penuty of six months in the Penitentiary.

fense. Judge Sutherland sent him to the State Re-
formatory at ELmlra. Harrlmann, the other pris-
, oner, was sentenced to five yeais in State Prison.

terday rendered a decision In the suit of John C.

■ chased the jewelry, and had sold it. He refused to
> give Anderson the dliference between the borrowed
money and the real value of the property. 0.he «iit
was therefore begun. Judge Sanford decided that
' Melzter did not purchase the property, but only
: made a loan upon iVt He ordered the defendant to

The House Committee charged with the
duty of preparing an amendment to the
Constitution providing a better method
:than the existing one of voting for Presi-
dent and Vice-President of the United
'States have agreed upon a plan which aims
at restorii^; the rights of minorities and
ipreserving from extinction the in-
:£nence of the smaller States. Under
this plan the full Electoral vote
of a State would not be castfor the majority
candidate, but all the candidates voted for
as President in any State would be entitled
•to a share of the Electoral vote, ascertained
as follows : The entire popular vote of the
eandidate is to be multiplied by the
fwhole number of Electoral votes of the
'State, and the product is to be
divided by the aggregate vote cast tor all
persons voted for as President, the quotient
|Will be the number of Electoral votes and
ifraetion thereof — embracing not more than
three decimals — ^to which such candidate
shall be entitled. The plan has so much to
^recommend it that it is not surprising to
{hear that the two-thirds vote required for
jaubmititing it to the States for adoption is
"not likely to be obtained from this Congress.
Jodging by the Senate -vote on adjonm-
ment yesterday, the prospects of the Thur-
man bill in -regard to the indebtedness of
the Pacific Bailroads are decidedly promis-
ing. In spite of the fact that certain Sena-
tors who favored the bill agreed with Mr.
CONKLlxa in "deprecating" night sessions
and wanted to be off to-day to the launch
at Chester, adjournment was carried by
a majority of but one. The thirty-one
Senators who voted against adjournment
can, donbtlesa. be reckoned on to sustain
the bill, and'adroit persons like the Senator
from New-Tork, who like "to test the sense
of the Senate " before voting on delicate
questions, may be expected to join the side
likely to win. Should Senator CoNELma
east his vote against the interests of Jay

kind og treatment he will get from Jat

Tlie " Working Men's " representatives in
Oka Assembly continue their crusade against
the profitable employment of convict labor
ia prisons. The AttomeyrGeneral having
declared that under existing law the Super-
intendent may employ convicts in any
"way he may consider most advantageous,
the Labor Befbrmers propose to change the
law so as to compel the employment of con-
victs in ways least likely to " conflict with
the mechanics and working men of the
State." Articles that are or may be im-
ported from foreign countries are named as
coming under this category, and the some-
what needless provision is added that the
earnings of the convicts shall constitute a
separate fund in the State Treasury. Un-
der anT such legislation the function of the
prisons as reformatory institutions would
'be aa completely at an end as the possibility
of »«i«fciTig their inmates contribute to their
mpport.
In aa - interview with Mr. Mobrisset,
quoted fabm yesterday's Sun, the Senator
■ska : "I wonder if Mr. Fish thinks he is
fooling anybody by reporting the Elective
Controller bill. He was against that bill
last 'W^tor. I passed it tlmnigh the Sen-
Kte, md when he got it in his committee he
■at «i it for weeks, though professing to
Mt» aU the tjmo that , he was in favor of it.
V'ibaUy I fot ™»^ '"* threatened to have
fte'UU jerked away from the committee,
ugdtbnh* openly opposed it is the com-
the Investigating Connnittee to-day some
reaaons tor his surprising change of
opinion in r^ard to the expediency
of making the Controller's office eleotire.
It ^ppens, too, that Mr. Daly's bill is
a much more radical measure than that pro-
posed by Mr. Morrisset, since it not only
provides that the Controller shall be an
elective officer, but divides hia power with
a Beeeiver of City Bevenue and reduces him
pretty nearly to the position of City Audit-
or. 'It is quite probable that Mr. Fish is
fooling nobody by his latest report of this
bill, but it still rests with him to explain
whether his own opurse in regard to it is
the outcome of foolishness or knavery.
The magnifying of Gen. Tchernaieft's
exploring expedition through Central Asia
into an armpd reconnoiasance directed
against the East Indian frontier, merely
shows what extraordinary mirages the
troubled atmosphere of an international
crisis may reflect ; but the alleged attempt
of Prince Gortschakofp to coerce Eou-
mania, if truly reported, is a much more
serious matter. The pacific Chancellor must
either feel his position very secure, or have
unusual faith in the efficacy of a little diplo-
matic bullying, to venture upon utterances
which recall those of Prince Bismarck to
prostrate France in the Spring of 1871.
It is possible that his secret knowledge of
the pro-Russian leanings of the Boomanian
Cabinet may have influenced his policy to
some extent ; but the opposition of the na-
tion at large has been so strongly mani-
fested that nothing short of armed force
ooTild overcome it, and any attempt of the
kind would probably kindle the smoldering
indignation of the Hungarian Parliament
into decisive action. The prevalent confusion
is not a little heightened by the enigmatical
utterances of Germany, each of which in
turn flatly contradicts its predecessor. The
conciliatory observation of the Agence Busse,
that " if England would plainly state her
demands as well as her objections, it might
pave the way for a good understanding," is
palpably a mere device to gain time, for
Russia's real intentions are sufficiently indi-
cated by the mobilization of her remaining
reserves, the concentration of 50,000 men
around the Galipoli peninsula, and of 30,-
000 more between Buyokdereh and Con-
stantinople, and by the orders sent to the
Montenegrins to hold themselves in readi-
ness for active service. This, however, ren-
ders her alleged harshness to Boumania
doubly inexplicable ; for should the Princi-
pality persist in refusing passage to the
Russian troops, and should the English
fleet succeed in passing the Bosphorus, the
whole Army will be cut oS from its base and
placed in a very critical position.

SHEBMAN oy GOVEBNMENT
SANEISG.
Secretary Sherman made it very plain on
Thursday, in his conference with the House
Committee on Banking and Currency, that
in his opinion the Treasury can manage its
affairs in much the same way as a large
bank. He alluded agaiu to what he calls
the "reserve" of the Bank of England, and
he repeated that if be had one hundred and
twenty or one hundred and forty millions of
coin in his vaults, he could just as easily
maintain redemption of the legal tenders as
the Bank of England maintains its own sol-
vency. It cannot too' frequently or too
clearly be pointed out that this notion of
the functions, power<4, and limitations of the
Treasury is radically mistaken, and that it
may very easily lead to the gravest danger.
There are numerous and important differ-
ences between the Treasury and the Bank
of England. In the first place, as far as
the question of redemption is concerned,
the sole liabilities of the Treasury are its
notes, and its sole assets consist of its coin
in hand. The notes, after redemption is
once announced, become payable on de-
mand, and they admit of no postponement
or offset. 'Whenever they are brought to
the Treasury they must be exchanged for
coin, and this must be kept up as long as
there is coin to give and it is wanted.
But the liabilities of the bank are paid
first to its note-holders, second to its/
depositors. It is only with refer-
ence to its notes that it is in the same posi-
tion as our Treasury would be. These, like
the legal tenders after resumption, are pay-
able on presentation. Bat their payment is
provided for in a very different manner
from that in which Mr. Sherman contem-
plates providing for the Government notes.
The bank holds, in the first instance, £ 15,-
000,000 of the public debt and securities,
and beyond that amount, Tor every pound of
its circulation it holds either a gold sover-
eign, or its equivalent, within a minute
fraction, in gold bolUon. It is allowed, by
law, to hold 25 per cent of its bullion re-
serve in silver, but, as a matter of fact, it
does not at the present moment hold any-
thing but gold. The £15,000,000 of Gov-
ernment debt is supposed to represent the
amount of notes which will never, under
any circumstances, be presented, but it is
plain that if the Bank Directors saw their
reserve diminishing until it approached this
wiinimnTn sum, they would, long before it
had wholly disappeared, begin to sell their
securities for notes, thus increasing the pro-
portion of their reserve to notes outstand-
ing. By such a process, failure to redeem
the notes in coin would be practically ren-
dered impossible under any circumstances
short of absolute collapse of the entire
credit system of the country, and the Gov-
ernment as well. It is easy to see that the
Treasury occupies no such position as this,
and cannot.
In the next place, if we take Mr. Sher-
man's idea to be that the Treasury's strength
may fairly be compared with the reserve of
the Bank of England against its entire lia-
bilities, then it is a mistake to estimate only
the cjish and bullion assets of the bank.
'We must take aU the assets. In that case,
we shall find that its assets are sufficient to
pay all its notes, all its deposits, all its pro-
prietors' capital at par, and to leave
£3,727,712 surplus to be divided among
ahareholders. In other words, its assets,
over and above its debts to others than its
own shareholders, are actually 35 per cent.
A similar statement for the Bank of France
would show assets 113 per cent of liabili-
ties, and for the Imperial Bank of Germany
115 per cent Obviously, it is a very un-
safe thing to calculate that the strength of
the United States Treasury bears any, even
remote, comparison to such strength as these
banks possess.
There is another element in the case
^hi«h apat ^ot be f orsotten. The Bank
ai^'^Stfiy^gS l§m^3i
of. X^^gjaad i» maaacred by a Boeid «t Troe-'
tejn, wlio kre OBdMr a triple responatbHity.
They are respbnsible to the GoTemment for
obedience to the law, to their aharehoMen
for the safety And profitableness of the cap-
ital, and to the depositors for the safety of
the deposits^ In each case the responsibili-
ty is immediate and weighty, and is felt as
sucit ; and to this must be added the respon-
sibHity^to the business community for the
proper management of a concern which
practically holds the coin reserve of the
whole country. Ko man trained to affairs
and. of sufficient reputation to be appointed!
to the Board of Directors of the bank could
trifle with such responsibilities as these. Is
there any corresponding sense of responsi-
bility on the part of the management of the
United States Treasury! The question an-
swers itself. Thermits not, and there cannot
be. The Secretary is responsible solely to
the law and to public opinion. The law
gives him wide discretion, and imposes
scarcely any obligation upon him beyond
that of good faith and common honesty.
Public opinion is in itself vague. Any
course which the Secretary should pursue
would find both defenders and opponents
equally zealous and equally ineffective to
produce any practical consequences. "We
do not by this mean that Secretary Sher-
man is not inclined to fulfill the duties
of his office with a sorapnlous fidelity and
according to the best of his judgment.
'We have no doubt that he is so inclined.
But, however anxious he may be to manage
the Treasury as well as the Bank of Eng-
land is managed, he could not do so. He
has not the impetus or the support of pub-
lic opinion to aid him, and the Treasury
is indefinitely weaker and more exposed
than the bank. His task is far more diffi-
cult, and his capacity is far less. It fol-
lows, therefore, that it is quite unsafe to
venture on any policy which assimilates the
TressuTT to the bank.
'We must again call attention to the fact
that Mr. Sqerman is treading on very tick-
lish eround when he assumes, as he does,
that the presence of depreciated silver in
the Treasury as a part of his reserve does
not add to his difficulties. It does add to
them greatly, and the more because no one
can tell exactly how it is going to work. He
assnmes to keep three kinds of legal tender
at an equal value, wh^ch now ., possess
three different values, and he assumes that
he can do this by the simple process of pay-
ing out the legal tenders at his discretion.
We do not pretend to understand the rea-
soning by which he sustains this astonish-
ing doctrine. But we are compelled to say
that to us he appears to have a very inade-
quate conception of the magnitude and dif-
ficulty of the duty he hits undertaken, as of
the means to perform it.
AY VSSATISFACTOBT PBOSPECT.
"How not to do it" seems to be the ques-
tion most carefully considered by the
Albany legislators when the reform ' of life
insurance is concerned. Bills without num-
ber are introduced, — some reasonable and
just, others that are neither, and yet others
which under a semblance of comprehensive-
jiess involve the whole subject in a hopeless
muddle. The present session is worse than
its predecessors as regards both the number
of bills and the crude and mischievous
character of those which are general in
their scope. Some of the special bills are
flagrant jobs. Notable in this class is Sena-
tor Harris' scheme for transferring to
doubtful hands the wreck of the Atlantic
Mutual Life. The measure is worthy of its
reputed author and of the Smyth-Platt-Cor-
nell clique who are at the bottom of it.
AnothA bill still more impudent .is
that which Senator Robertson was
induced to introduce, but which he
quickly disowned when its purpose was
made known. It is in effect a bill to super-
sede the law of 1 873, — ^to enable the Super-
intendent to do lawfully what Smyth has
done in spite of law. We cannot suppose
that there is the slightest chance of its
enactment, but its presentation under false
colors shows Smttr's consciousness of the
need of legal sanction for the system he has
pursued, and the fate that wonld be in store
for the companies if the law-making power
were in his hands. The third bill before
the Senate relates to Tontine policies, and
is designed to exact information now with-
held by the few companies that invite this
class of business. Ko one who has had oc-
casion to observe the stupidity and igno-
rance of Senators as to the matters really
deserving of attention in connection with
life insurance, will wonder at the shape in
which Senator McCarthy's little bill now
stands.
In the Assembly the bills are a strange
jumble of good things and bad, and JJiings
'that are indifferent. Mr. Graham, — the head
of the Insurance Committee last session,
whom the Speaker deposed this session be^
cause, we suppose, he really does know
something about life insurance, — ^is the
father of several measures. One, referring
to Receivers, provides for the closing of the
affairs of insolvent and embarrassed com-
panies ; another relates to the examination
of life companies and the regulation of their
investments ; a third provides for the ap-
pointment of additional officers in the In-
surance Department, to perform the duties
which under the Smyth regime have been
sources of plunder for the benefit of per-
sonal friends. Air. Graham is also responsi-
ble for a measuru that is duplicated in its
essence by Mr. Sessions in the Senate, to
prevent the removal of actions to the Cir-
cuit Courts of the United States by foreign
companies — meaning companies organized
under the laws of other States, as well as those
of strictly foreign origin. Boththe equity and
the constitutionality of the proposition are
open to doubt. Mr. Hepburn, Mr. Gra-
ham's successor in the Chairmanship of th^
committee, has equaled him in industry at
least. His principal bill " to provide for
maintaining the solvency of life insurance
companies and protecting the rights of
policy-holders" takes the place of the bill
presented by Mr. Keeqan at the opening of
the session. Mr. Keeqan attempted too
much and failed. His bill had some excel-
lent features, with a multitude of provisions
that were either undesirable or impractica-
ble. As a means of protecting policy-hold-
ers, however, it was preferable to the bill
prepared by Mr. Hepburn. The latter
measure, as we recently endeavored to show,
virtually strips policy-holders of the few
rights they possess, and hands them over to
the tender mercies of the Jack in office at
the Insurance Deparbnent and the law
courts. Mr. Hepburn's purposes are on-
qneetionsble, but' liis attempt to eaxrf theu
out is in Qai initaaee a eonsplenoiia
failure. He. has three ' other tiills.
The first Iffeaka down the proxy po'wer
behind which oflleials are intrenched, by
limiting the validity of the proxy to six
months. The Second amends the existing
law in regard to the statements of the com-
panies,— requiring details of matters now
" lumped " and hidden, and compelling the
Superintendent to exact information which,
at his discretion, may now be omitted: The
company that clings to the abuse of proxies
virtually declares that salaried managers
may with impunity make a mockery of the
policy-holders' right to controL And the
company that refuses the particulars which
Mr. Hepburn proposes to exact practically
confesses that it is afraid of the light. An-
other of that gentleman's bUls covers the
winding-up process in the hands of Beoeivers.
Finally, Mr. Beboen has a bill of one short
section affirming that the relation of Trus-
tee and cestui que trust shall be held to
exist between life companies and their
policy-holders.
Here, then, is an amount of business that
wonld tax to the utmost the capacity of an
insurance committee selected with special
reference to a knowledge of the subject and
an honest desire to deal satisfactorily with
it. Unfortunately, these qualifications seem
to have been of secondary importance in the
appointment of the present committees.
The Senate committee is, as for years it has
been, constituted in the interests of the
companies opposed to reform. It looks
kindly upon jobs, sustains officials who are
unworthy of confidence, and brands as an
enemy any man who pleads for the rights of
policy-holders and would throw around their
interests the protection required. The com-
mittee this session is no worse . than the
Senate itself. The majority that sustained
a Superintendent who confessed his viola-
tions of the law, and that regards funds be-
longing to policy-holders fair spoils for
the lawyers and appraisers who charge what
they like, — cannot be expected to pass any
meagnre not in harmony with the Snperin-
tendent's game, or with the convenience of
mismanaged companies. The Assembly is
ahead of its committee, but the inefficiency
of the latter body precludes the hope of wise
or energetic action. If the object of the
Speaker was to prevent legislation that
would be unpalatable to managers and
beneficial to policy-holders, he displayed
skill in his method when he organized the
present committee. 'With the best inten-
tions, the Chairman is powerless. He fails
to comprehend the essential requirements
of the time, and approaches the general
question rather as a lawyer than as one fa-
miliar with the business of life insurance.
'When he wonld advance in the right direc-
tion, the committee blocks the way. It were
idle in these circumstances to look for any
good result. The session will pass, and life
insurance reform will be as far off as at the
beginning. The only change will be in the
degree of public confidence, which grows
less and less.
'We submit, therefore, that Mr. Bbooes
wastes words when he calls upon the As-
sembly Committee on Insurance to examine
and report in regard to legislation needed
to protect policy-holders and secure " a
more efficient, economical, and honest ad-
ministration" of the department. The com-
mittee has already more work before it than
it can accomplish. It has shown itself in-
capable of doing the very things which Mr.
BaooES asks it to do. Besides, recent
events have widened the question to be con-
sidered. Improvement of the law adminis-
tered by the Insurance Department is no
longer enough. The pertinent inquiry now
is, whether the system of State supervision
is not a fraud and a snare, and whether the
interests of the policy-holders and the pub-
lic do not demand the abolition of the de-
partment Of what avail is law when a man
like Smyth may trample on it with impu-
nity t Of what use is supervision when a
gang of jobbers are the supervisors t Of
what value is a department which plunders
those whom it should protect, and winks at
the mismanagement which it was created to
prevent T Messrs. StLOOKs, Hepburn, and
Graham must make a fresh start. Amend-
ing the law might have sufficed before the
department had been proved unworthy of
trust The simplest reform now would be
to sweep away the department and enable
the policy-holders to protect themselves.
A PALTBT DEBATE I2f THE SOUSE.
Some of the meaner methods of Congres-
sional politicians were brought out in the
long debate in the House, yesterday. This
was the fourth day which the House has
frittered away in discussing the Door-keeper
scandal. Yesterday's debate was precipitated
by Gen. Butler, who offered a resolution
that the House proceed to the election of a
successor to Pole:, and that Gen. James
Shields, of Missouri, be put in nomination
for the office. Gen. Butler eulogized his
nominee in the warmest terms, referring to
his services in the Mexican war, in
which he was wounded. Of course,
this was a work of supererogation.
Whoever has beard of Gen. Shields has
heard of the Mexican war, and of the
wound which he received in it. But, to
sum up all his recommendations to office, it
was added that he is old and poor. It is
not at all likely that Butler was moved to
make this peculiar nomination by any of
the reasons which he alleges in favor of
Gen. Shields. And Mr. Cox was cunning
enough to see that a member who has been
as fertile in intrigues as Butler, might just-
ly be suspected of being engaged in a fresh
intrigue now. Nobody would believe for a
moment that Gen. Butler bursts upon the
House with a volunteer nomination for
Door-keeper with any such motives as those
which he pretends to have.
The nomination, under the* circumstances,
was a dramatic surprise. In this respect it
was characteristic of Buti£R. Naturally
enough, it was resisted by the Democrats.
Theyhad not held any caucus on the mat-
ter. It was as impossible for the rank and file
of the party to elect a new Door-keeper with-
out first holding a party caucus as it would be
for a majorityin a State Legislature to elect
a United States Senator without|first invok-
ing the aid of similar machinery. It need
not for a moment be Bnpi>osed that Gen.
Bdtlir, wi^ his long experience in poli-
tics, did not know this before he sprung
his nomination on the House. Precisely
what he proposed to accomplish by his sud-
den more doe* not appear, though Hr^ Cox
was evidently very anxious to fimd it out
tt u •haxaatatistis .at the Butler sohool.ot

poUtieiaas the t die General shonlil' urge ia
Shixlos' favoi that he was aged and in re-
duced cireums taaoes. Butler, whether he
is sincere or not in his advocacy of the vet-
eran soldier, knows very well ^at the aver-
age Congressman is more likely to be
moved by a tale of poverty and infirmity
thanbyaiky considerations of the fitness
of the candidate. The House has just
turned out a Dpor-keeper because .he was
weak and liable to be imposed upon. Yet
while the hapless Pole lingers on the
threshold, BunLER proposes as his succes-
sor a man i rhose weightiest reoono&endation
is that he i i old and infirm.
Mr. S. S. Cox was the chief opponent of
Butler's {roposition to proceed *> an elec--
tionof Door-keeper. The debate between
these two men was charactei^tic of both.
It was in the low, vulgar vein of Congres-
sional discussion. Both men seemed to
thinlc that frequent allusions to the Deity
and quotations from the Holy Scriptures
and Watts' liymns constitute an elevated
type of wit Butler was constantly in-
voking the na me of the Creator, and Cox,
having peddle< 1 out his fiippant travesties of
things which many people consider sacred,
pronounced a mock benediction over the
head of his old adversary. Cox having ex-
pressed his surprise that Butler should
have made tha nomination without having
taken counsel irith the Bepublicans in the
House, Butl er could dp no less than as-
sume a higli moral ground, and de-
clare that he was independent of
party. This assertion was more gro-
tesquely I un rue than were his im-
plied reasoni lor nominating Shields,
■Whatever else Butler has left undone, he
has neveri f ai ed to make the most of the
rigor of party machinery for his own bene-
fit. If he 'voted with the Democrats in the
Dean case the other day, it was from ptirely
selfish considerations. Butler is first mid
always for Bdtlee. In this little dispute it
was comifeal to see the Massachusetts Rep-
^ — as a disinterested, non-
lan. Cox was in his natural
lling to do anything until
ived at a caucus agreement.
The deliiste | was characteristic, too, be-
cause some or the members thought it a
sharp thing to reproach Butler with hav-
ing voted for ai pro-slavery candidate in the
Democratic Convention at Charteston in
1860 ; and bedanse other Democratic mem-
bers professed to believe that he was com-
ing back to. their party. It was this view of
the case which tave Mr. Cox an opportunity
to make a novel and always exquisitely
witty use of ihe quotation, " 'While the
oAt to bum," &c. Some of
the Eouse will enact a new rule

As for the i ef ei enee to Butler's services in
the Charles »n Convention, one might sup-
pose that i Ho ise which has a brigade of
ex-rebel of leer i, and at least two of Jepp
Davis' Cabi net Ministers in it, could afford
to let But! .er'i bygones be bygones. But
small politi sian i like Mr. Cox, though never
so much " I lone iliated," will never forget to
twit. Fina ly, 1 he whole matter of the elec-
tion of Doo •-ke< per was allowed to go over
until next i reei . And thus another day of
wrangling < ver this contemptible business
was provid( d f » by the Democratic ma-
jority. 'Whs tev« r may have been said in jest
or earnest i bou t independence of party, it
was certain thai no Democrat would vote to
do anything unl il he had his orders from a
caucus. 'Wb ne sd not quarrel with this. It
is common f nou gh in Congress and out of
it. But it wai a fitting finale to a debate
which illust rate i some of the meanest traits
of the prese at -^ eak and mean majority in
the House o t Re presentatives.
JALit AGE'S VEBAVITT.
Tal: lAOE is well known as the
leading gymuasi ic preacher of the day. It
is a sad copimi ntary upon human nature
that certain! irr< verent journalists, envious
of the trans ienc ent ability of his arms and
legs, have r epei tedly written of him in a
strain that i ber< is too much reason to be-
lieve was in ;end ed to bring him into ridi-
cule. Just low Mr. Talmage is engaged in
a little cent 'ove rsy with his Trustees, and,
of course, h is ui iscrapulous detractors have
seized the opportunity to say unpleasant
things conci !mii ig him. This naturally fills
the tender I rea: t with grief and stirs the in-
dignation 01 the chivalrous. Let us, there-
fore, come up to the help of TalMaoe
against the ivicl :ed, aud extricate him from
their snares .
A few da; sag )allthe Trustees of Mr. Tal-
MAOE'sgymiasi— , that is to say, Taberna-
cle, resigne I, ai d published their reasons
in a letter v ritfc m by one of their number.
Of course, i rher there is a question of ve-
racity betv'een Mr. Talmaoe and nine
Trustees, it is o ivious that the latter must
be in the w ronj :. Still, in order to show
them oompl ate j ostice, they should be given
a hearing, a nd j ermitted to tell their story,
which is, bi iefl} , as follows :
It is alleged that the organist of Mr.
Talmaoe's lear -yard — ^we should say Taber-
nacle— has leei for some time addicted to
intoxicatiox . 'V Aether this is true or not
the public has no means of knowing, but
the "Trustee 3 as: ert that it is true. It might
easily be |ima:^ned that a delicate and
sensitive oirganist, compelled to listen to
Mr. Talmac e's sermons, would seek to sus-
tain himself by dcoholic stimulants, and if
the organist of 1 he Tabernacle has been ad-
dicted to th s pr »!tice, there will be many
who will syi upal hize with him. Be this as
it may, tha Tr istees allege that Mr. Tal-
Maqe demat ded the removal of the organist
on the ground of his drunkenness; that
after the Tr istei <s had removed him, he was
reinstated through Mr. Talmaog's influ-
ence, and th it tl le latter wrote a letter cer-
tifying tha tie organist's "habits are
faultless," and that he is " as complete a
gentleman " as the writer ever knew. In
consequence of these things the Trustees
resigned, an i th ) one of their number who <
undertook t( i sta :e their reasons for resign-
ing announc ed t hat he had lost all faith in
Mr. Talmaq E's v eraoity.
Now, evep, il we grant the. truth of
everytlking ^e ' [trustees have said, it by no
means foUejws ^hat they should lose all
faith ia m. TjIlmaos's veraci^, or that,
in other wordsi they should assume that
he cannot 'teU| the truth.' How do. they
know that his ciertifiaate of the faulUessness
of the habits pt the aian whom h» had
accused of dnxnkenness was not ioteaded
as a joke il Mr. Talmaox in that Tety cer-
tificate assertathat the organist is as com-
plete A^aaUsinaa aahe ever kaaw. Ob-
-vieaaliy, this is not meant to be understood
seriously. 'What does Mr-. Talmaoe know
about gentlemen, or is it to be supposed
that he for a moment fancied that his cei^
tificate that the organist was a gentleman
would be accepted as evidence T If, then,
this part of the certificate was a joke, we
may rightfully assume that all of it was a
joke, and, hence, that when he character-
ized the habits of the person whom he had
charged with drankenness as " faultless "
be was not guilty of deliberate falsehood.
Moreover, if Mr. Talmage has told what
was not true in regard to his organist, it
does not follow that all faith in his veracity
should be lost Not very long ago he assert-
ed, in defease of his surreptitious use of the
columns of the Christian at Work to puff a
rival paper in which he had become inter-
ested, that he had some time previously re-
signed his connection with the former paper.
It was, however, f oi^nd that, although his
letter of resignation bore the date which he
said was the date of his resignation, the
letter was not mailed until the night when
he tampered with the columns of the Chris-
tian at IVork. His wicked dettactor there-
upon claimed that his pretense that he had
resigned a week before he mailed his. letter
of resignation was false, or that, in other
words, Mr. Talmage had told what was not
true. Hia Trustees did not theu lose all
faith in his veracity, and it is difficalt to see
why their faith should have been' disturbed
in consequence of a more recent alleged
falsehood. A lie is a lie no matter when it
is told, and if Mr. Talmage has told a lie
about the habits of his organist, it is no
worse than the falsehood which he is charged
with having told concerning his resignation
from the Christian at JTork.
But let us concede, if the Trustees so de-
sire, that Mr. Talmage has told two dis-
tinct falsehoods. Nevertheless, it does not
follow that he cannot tell the truth, and it
is not only unjust but absurd to claim that
he cannot. There is no reason to doubt
that very maur eases might arise in which
Mr. Talmage would have no hesitation in
speaking the truth. If, for example, one
of the Trustees were to ask him if he had
ever waded across the East Blver, he would,
in all probability, say " No," and wonld
thereby tell the truth. Where there is
nothing .to be gained and much to bs lost
by lying, we may unhesitatingly assert that
he will adhere to the truth, and it is cruel
and wicked to assert the contrary. If Mr.
Talmage told what was not true in connec-
tion with the Christian at Work, it should
be remembered that he was trying to escape
from the charge of dishonorable conduct ;
and if he told a falsehood about his organ-
ist, it is probable that he had some reason
for so doing. Merely because he may, on
one or two occasions, have told what was
nottme, nine distinct and separate Trustees
are not justified in assuming thit he is
totally incapable of telling tha trjith. Such
an assumption is an outrage which may
well cause the blood to boil in the veins of
fair-minded men. It is probably suscepti-
ble of proof that Mr. Talmage has re-
peatedly told the literal and exact truth
concerning matters of no particular im-
portance, and hence it follows that he is
quite capable of doing ia the future wiiat he
has done in the past
A man may be a mountebank ; he may bo
both silly and vulgar ; he may be utterly ig-
norant of the way in which honorable men
deal with their fellows, and he may occa-
sionally try to extricate himself from an un-
comfortable situation at the sacrifice of ve-
racity. In spite of all this he may still be
able to tell the trath. Mr. Talmage's let-
ter-writing Trustee has done him a flagrant
injustice in proiessing to have lost all faith
in his veracity. That sweeping declaration
needs to be qualified. Let the Trustees ac-
knowledge that in their opinion he is fully
I capable of telling the truth when it will
serve his purpose better than a falsehood.
By so doing they will do justice to an in-
1 jured man, and relieve their own con-
sciences. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

HalHday offered resolntlons, which were adopted,
veeitbag that the Apportionment bill had not
been reported by the Committee on Enerossed Bills
for tliree weeks, and that this ttad an extremely sns-
pidooa look ; therefore, that committee shonid re-
port the bill before the cloae of the session Monday
iTbto eonTict labor qnestlon seems getting into defi-
tat« shape in the legislators. The Attorney-General
hSTing given his opinion that the present laws
anthorize the Saperlntendent of Prisons to make
contracts for prison labor, Mr. Browning tins morn-
ing introdnred a bill for "The better protection of
the mechanics of the State," by prohi bit ine contracts.
It provides that hereafter mch labor sha 1 not be let
o»htred ont by eonimct. The labor shall be apon
ftieh articles as are or may be imported from foreign
conntriea, or snt-h as may least conflict with the me-
chanics and worlungmcn of the State. What is mann-
faetnred shall not be sold tn the markets, or else-
■"■here, at a lew rat« than their market valne. The
♦aminai of the convicts shall be paid into the Treaa-"
nry of the State, constituting a separate fund to be
called "The Pri3«on and Home of Refuge Fund."
A violation of the act by the Superlniendent or
other privon officers shall be made a misdemeanor,
for which ihe Governor may remove. It also pro-
videa for the removal of managers of reformatories.
Mr. Crowley, one of the Buffalo members, offered a^
petition tipon the same subject, signed by 12.000*'
citizens uT that city, a^inst convict prison labor,
and made a short speech upon it.
The bill to ftive the aopointment of Marshals tn
the Qty of New-York to the Civil Justices there. ^^?is
considered in Committee of the Whole and ordered
to a third r^adinff. The bill to incorporate the New-
York and Western Pipe-line Company was the sub-
]ect of mufh debate, anu finally upon motion of Dr.
Haves, was proeressed. The bill to permit the local
anthorities of .^ew- York to enter into contracts for
llghtinff the street lamps at any time, instead of hav-
luK to make them at the beginning of the year as
DOW required by law, was pasxed.
Mr. Astor introduced a bill relative to the pub-
lication of foreclosure sales, which provides that
herenfter notices of all such sales, and. In particular
casea, where the premises are situated In Kew-York
City, shall be pria ed in two daily newspapers put>-
lished iherrin for the period prescribed by law. one
of which papers shall be the paper designated for
the publication of leenl ndverti -ements by the Gen-
eral Term of the Supreme Court, in pursuance of
law.
Tlie Senste occupied most of the session to-day
diseas^lDK tbe bill to postpone theclosine up and sale
of the Geiie-ee VaUey Oinal until Jan. 1. 1880.
The bttl w« finally, ordered to a third reading, so
amended as to require the Canal Board to fix such
xaies of toll aa will pay the muning expenses of the
eanaL
The i>eTidstent attempts made by the Corporation
Oonnsel of Brookl vn to override the amendea charter
of laot year and keep his salary at $10,000, instead
of SG.OOO, as provided in that charter, all come to
rrief. The stumbtlnz-block appears to be Senator
Jacobs, who t hi nks $6. OOO per snunm is
enough, or ought to be enough, to supply
the rea*onah:e wnnts of a lawyer of the
calibre of Mr. De Witt- Mr. Jacobs* colleague. Sen-
ator Pierre, tried to-day to eet tbe last of the bills In-
troduced bv him for tbe benefit of the Corporation
Connvl taken out of the Committee on Cities, of
which Mr. Jacobs Is a member, and transferred to
the Judiclnry Coinmitree. Mr. Jacobs objected, and
was supported by Senator Harris, also a member of
the Cities Committee, who said that no heariufr had
been had on the btlL and the committee had not
bem as!:ed to report it. He moved thst the bill be |
referred to n special committee consisting of the two j
Brooklyn Senators— Pi ercn and Jacob*— and that j
they be anthorizel to have a hearrne on it in Brtx>k- i
lyn. Take tbe sense of the tax-papers and citizens j
peoerally, and report to the s^enate. Mr. Jacobs j
moved to amend Mr. Hams' motion so as not to re- |
quire them to report until they conld spree. Mr.
Harris sa d he wotxld so far modify his motion as to
provide, in case they could *-ot asnTe. that Mr, Oak-
ley, the ifeuatOT from the First DL«triet. should be
called in as au arbitrator to decide between them.
In this shape the motiim was carried, and the fate of
Mr. De Witt's salary rests with Mr. Oakley.
The trill amendins the law orzanizinK the Bank
Department came up in Committee of tbe Whole,
and after a short discnssion was proeres^ed. One
section of the bill provides that whenever an exam-
ination of a bank shall be made by the Bank Super-
intendent or his deputies the cbarses for Guch exam-
fauition shall be eertifled by the B«nk Superintend-
ent snd paid by the bank to him directly. Mr.'
Jaeobe said be could not see how any Senator who
voted to convict Smyth could vote for this provision.
and Mr. Raines and Mr. Goodwin said they should
Tote asainst the bill with such a provision In it.
Among the bills favorably reported was one from
the Committee on Cirle* providing for the election
of a Clerk of the Board of Supervlsora of Kings
County everr two yearn. Also, a hill auttiorizing the
County Clerk of Eines County to employ a clerk at
94 per day to assort and arrange all tbe judgments,
decreea. orders, and other papers In hla office ; also
to give tbe County Clerk 10 cents a folio to record
in a book all the mutilated records of his ofQce affect-
tne titles to propenv. The Senate Committee on
Oommerc" and Kavication have unanimously agreed
to renoTt favorably the bill limiting fares for foot
paaaenserson the'boau of the Cnlon Ferry Com-
pany to 1 cent.^
MOJfT. JOSS MOURISSET OS BARGAISS.
From TttUrday'i Sun,
3&. Morrissey takes great interest in what Is
[otng on about the Legislature, and either reads or
bas road to him all the daily papers. He was quite
outspoken as to the action of the Senate in acquit-
ting Smyth, and declared that the leaders might pro-
test until doomsday, but they never would be able to
make the people believ* that a bargain had sot been
jxmdm between Tammaoy HaH and certain Bepubli-
eant.
**I see they passed the Salary bill in the Assembly
yesterday," he said. " That bill puu tbe City com-
pletely in Kelly's hands, and, together with some
others that I hear are to be put through, will make
him more than ever the. autocrat of New-York. But
he will cheat the men who have made the deal with
him in the end. All he wants is to keep control of
the City. He cheated the Governor after he had got
him to sete my Mil* l«»t Winter, and he will cheat

Salxior, N. C, April 5.— The deTelopmenU
Arisiai; from tbe political qnarral now going on 1}»
tween the Tarions penons who are easdidat«8 for
Ctalrt-Jiutiee and Anoeiata Jnttice of the Snpreme
Court are new and aorprialnK. The friends of Judge
Smith hare nnearthed the fact that David Schenek
wai an odginal Seeesrionlat, and that he made a
blood-and-thander war speech at Gcldaboro. in 1861,
before this State seceded. Moses, of Soath Carolina,
father ot F. J. Moses, the colossal thief of South
Carolina, and now the chief Demoetatie witness
aa to rascality in the Palmetto State,
was present at tbe eonTeniion beggmg
North Carolina to secede and place herself in line
with her sister State. Moses heard Schenck's fire-
eating speech, and'remarked that he was the only
man in North Carolina who had nerve and back-
boneAnfficlent to lead the people. The seqnel to
this harangne at Goidstwro is what might have been
expected. Schenck dodged the war. For a while be
was a vender of meat in the Snbsistence Department
in this city, and afterward managed to secare a
"bomb-proof," wliich enabled him to stay at home
with his family in Lincolnton. These facta are
bngely enjoyed by the friends of Smith, and tbey
roll the names of Moses and Schenck as sweet mor-
sels under their tongues. Randolph Shotwell has
announced that he will thoroughly ventilate Schenck
in an exhaustive card on Thursday of next week.
The friends ot Chief-Justice Smith denonnco the
attack on that gentleman as an attack upon Gov.
Vance, and have demanded that the Governor come
to their assistance. Vance desires to be elected
to the United States Senate. This is the height
of his ambition. He has subordinated his admio-
istration as Governor to the attainment of this
object. He knows ti»«t any interference on his part
in the pending contest for t nief-Ou«lice of tn© Su-
premo Court can only nerve to weaken hisefannces
for election to the Senate; therefore he did not de-
sire to be drawn into the e(inte<tt, and would not have
done BO but for the fact that the opposition to Smith
has crystallized the oppoRition to Vance. Under
these circumstances it is well understood in this city
that the Governor has taken off his coat in favor uf
Smith, and is deaiinfi. destruction to the
followers of Schenck, Fowle, and Senator Sler-
rimon. While the fight races between S-henck
and Smith the friends of another gentleman
are preparing to run off with the Ijone. An organiza-
tiou is said to exist in this city who are in favor of
Thomas S. Ashe, of Anson County, for Jnstiee. They
are holding Mr. Aslie back with tbe confident expec-
tation that Smith and Schenck will cut each other's
throats, and that Ashe will receive tlie nomination.
Thomas J. Jarvis. Lieutenant-Governor, is for Vance
for Senator. He has donned his old war clothes, and
is making things lively for Merrimon, Schenck. and
Fowle in Eastern Carolina.

A SUIT FOB A FARM DECIDED IX FAVOB OF
THE PLAINTIFF — AXOTHER SUIT TO FOL-
LOW— SERIOUS CHABQES AGAINST A WIFE.
Special Divftitch to tJu Kev- York Timet,
PouGHKEEPSiE, April 5.— The contest over
the Tuompson fartn in Pine PUIdb, which resulted
on Sattirday last in the shooting of Farmer Thomp-
son, is now in the courts. Mr. Thompson's condi-
tion is more serious, and at times he is delirious.
CoL P. 6. Fraleigh, on application to Judge Barnard,
had an order issued agalast the Thompsons under
the ■• Forcible Entry and Detainer " act to show
cause why the former should not be given possession
of the farm. It was tried to^ay before a jury of
13. who, after fiv« minutes' deliberation, de-
cided that CoL Fraleigh was the rightful
possessor of the property. This is the first
time in the history of the county that a
ease has bean tried under the act referred to.
■When the shootitut affray was reported, it was men-
tioned as a significant fact that CoL Fralelgh's wife
was in Thompson's house at the time, and with Mrs.
Thompson was looking out of the window at the com-
batants. The shooting and clubbing occtirred on
Saturday last. Col. Fraleieh says that on Sunday
evenlna folSowinjc Mrs. Fraleigh, who had refused to
see her husband, tommenced to pack up all wearing
apparel, &e., belonging to her, telling the inmates of
the house that she was gotntt away, but not to ac-
quaint anybody with the fact until she i^ot ^4
hours' start. After pacldne her things, she took
a key from her pocket, and, openiuE the safe,
found Col. Fraleichs bank-book, in which were $400
in greenbacks. 6he put the money in her pocket,
and ifondny morning early started for Attlebnry, on
the Newburp, Dutchess and Connecticut Railroad.
There she expres!*ed a trunk to Truy, and cheoked
anotherto Dutchess Junction, where she went her-
self. From there she came to Pouffhkeep^ie on tiie
train dae here at 10:30 A. M.. and left aeain on the
12:50 P. M. train for Troy, snd it is thoueht she is now
at No. 18 Fimrth-street in that city. Col. Fraleigh
did not know of her depannre until late on Tues-
day, when he remarked, " I have been einectiUK It."
Her maiden name was Ada Ia. Weeks. He first saw
her at Attlehury three year^ajjo. where she was teach-
ing music. When the Cora Pearl Hmted divorce case
was tried she wss mentioned as one of tbe persons who
were at the Fowler Bouse in Hyde Park one nisht
when au alleged criminal intimacy occurred. She
bad a companion named Hattie £mith. who was also
one of the party on the evening Id question.
Col. Fraleifffa will, as soon as his present ease is
settled, institute proceedinss for divorce on the
grounds of desertion and adultery. He has stated
that she confe^^ to him that she was unchaste
previous to their marriage : that be has ziven her
money at the rate of $ii.000 per annum for herself,
and that there was no end to her demands for funds.
The first he knew aiwut her was throujth a letter she
sent him asicinK for the loan of some money.
He says she no donbt thouzht there were $7,000 in
the safe when she took the S400. as he was to have
received a portion of the pnrchase money for tbe
farm.
CBAVTAVQUA COVSTY O.V SMTTS'.
The Jamestown Journal, the leading Republi-
can paper in Chautauqua County, sava: "The refusal
of the Senate to remove the Saneriatendent of the
Insurance Department will prove discouraginz news
to policy-holders. We have closoly followed the case
in the Senate, and come to the conclusion that tbe
large claims allowed by tne Superintendent were
puiup jobs, and were Uttle better than downneht
robbery of confiding and innocent policv-holders.
We are glad that SeuRtor Sessions wa.-hed his hands
of any complicity with the matter by voting to dis-
miss Mr. Smyth. Tlie State had better discontinue
all supervision over insurance matters than to fur-
nish agents who will fonnive and wink •'t the robbery
of widows and their children, if not join in the divi-
sion of the plunder that is stolen from them.''
TBE FEELING IN JEFFERS^ON COVNTT.
The Waiertown Uimes prints Senator Turner's
opinion in the Smyth case, and says: "After ad-
mitting tbe sut>stantial correctness of the charzes of
the Governor, that Smyth violated the statute of
1873. and that some of the bills he paid to lawyers
— $24, 000 to one and $12,000 to another— were ex-
cessive, we are rather suiTirised that the Senator
should 'have voted for his acquittaL But that is his
business, not ours. We cheei-fully concede that the
Jadge i&an upright man, and that in this matter be
has acted conseientionslv; but if the opinion he de-
livers 1» any benefit to Dim we fall to see it. Among
the RepuDlicans of Jefferson there are hardly two
opinions as to the importance of having clean men in
office, men who have regard for law. and will see thas
insurance companies (and. of coiirie. the people they
insure) are not robbed by greedy lawyers. They do
n>'t approve of the doings of Smyth, and no amount
of x>ettifogginir will make them do it. It Smyth was
Chairman of the Democratic State Committee, there
isn't a Republican journal iu the State that would
fall to hold him UP to public reprobation, not one
that would not denounce him and trv to make politi-
cal capital out of ^is questionable transactions.
Does the fact that he is Chairman of the Republican
2State ConUEOittee help the matter?"
MIL FI8B8 OPPORTUNITY.
The Owego (Tioga County) Timea of the 4th
inst. says: " Hon. Hamilton Fish had a hill put on
its passage removing the present Commissioner of
Jurors and reducing the salary for the next incum-
bent to $5,000. On examination it was ascertained
that the bill had bebn changed by retaining tbe Com-
misstoner and flxlBg his salary at $7. 500. Of course,
thla tampering was done by somettody, and that
somebody can he traced. Mr. Fish was quite indig-
nant on beiog charged with aiding in securing the ac-
quittal of JchntF. Smyth by recommitting a bill to re-
dtiee talariea of the officials of New-Votk City, and
thuMeietirtog the votes of four Tammany Senators.
Wethiokhls ri^teous indignation should show it-
self ia nlatioa to this biU."
A BTRANQE AFFLICTION.
The Kixt^ton Frttman say^ : " A few days
aiaee, whils Mr. George Winters, of Westkill, was
workfag in his shop, feeling as well as ustial, he made
an effort to whistle, when he found he could not.

Mauch Chunk, Penn., Anril 6.— A catas-
trophe of a very serious natuhi occurred at Slating-
ton, 13 mOes below here, on the Lehlzh Valley Kafl-
road, thie morning, by which two persons were'
killed and 50 persons were injured, and seven may
lose their lives. At 5 o'clock an oil train going east
ran into a freight train which was standing a few
yards south of the depot The engine was thrown
from the track and exploded, setting fire to the for-
ward oil tanks, which in a few minutes were burning
briskly, . Tho foundry of Wallace & Custard, on the
east side of tbe track, caught fins, and the depot, a
bridge, and a row of hoiuies were for some time in
great danger ; a larg« crowd soon assembled and the
last mentioned huirdings were saved. The oil
burned briskly, and large elonds of black wavy smoke
gave notice to the people of the surrounding country
that a fire was in progress. Fortunately, about 8
o'clock a nnmber of persons left to get breakfast ; 19
minutes later one of tbe oU-tanks burst and
scattered the fire in all directions. Tbe shower ot
fire came so suddenly— the explosion made very little
noise— that it covered the mass of people before
tbey had a chance to escape. There was a mighty
rush for safety, and, choked by blinding smoke and
maddened by pain, each man struggled to sare him-
self Tne heat formed a current more powerful
than the wind, which was blowing from the crowd,
and the flames followed the people closely in waves
as the breakers beat upon tbe sea-shore, the thick
black smoke rolling on before, blinding every one
and adding to the terrible confusion. Ji. few persons
flung themselves into the Lehigh River, and were
soon out of danger. It was but sn instant until the
fiaraes receded and joined the blazing tanks. The
few spectators who stood out uf danger. sppaUed at
what they bad seen^were struck dumb and powerless.
W'hen the smoke rolled back . hero and there were
men flying like madmen with their clothes aflame.
On the ground Iny the more seriously burned, writh-
inc in agony. William Shoemaker, an old man of 77
rears, was not strong enough to get away,
and be was roasted to death where
he stood. Arthur Williams was caught in
the main street with his clothing burned off. Irvin
Clark and several others ran in as many different di-
rectiotis with their clothing all on fire, and were with
difficulty checked by the spectators, who had re-
gained their senses. On all sides were men and
women charred and burned, rrying for help. Mrs.
Queen, who had dropped her baby in the wild flight
of the crowd. Ecreamed with terror and pain until a
brave young man. wbo had stopped in his flight and
grabbed up tbe child, returned it to her uninjured.
The horrid smell of homed human flesh filledthe air,
and a thousand cries greeted the ear. Several physi-
cians soon arrived, and the badlv hurt were taken
into the houses near by. A lar^ namoer of the
more fortunate, those slightly injured, went to their
homes, and for tliis reason It is impossible to get a
full list of the casualties, but the following com-
prises the names of the killed Snd injured so far as
can be awertalned :
ffiWcd— William Shoemaker, of Locknort; David
Reher. who lived one mile from Slatington.
Fatally /njto-ecf— Arthur Williams, of Slatington.

TB£: BLAKE MOSBT,
ANOTHER ENGLISH FORTUNE WAITING FOR
ITS AMERICAN HEIRS, AND THE HEIRS
LOOKING FOE IT — ^THE OLD STORY RE-
PEATED.
JVom the Saltimore BuUetm, AprU 4.
Through the courtesy of Kr. Dennis Donohne,
the British Consul at Baltimore, we have obtained
the following facts relative to a search now tieing
prosecuted in this city for heirs to the pronerty of
the widow of Gen. Robert Blake, of Suffolk, Eng-
land, who died at Kensington, London, in 1S76.
The property in question U valued at £220.000. or,
in round numbers, $1,100,000. "To bejiu at the
beginning." William Le Fanu Sheiidan, of Galway,
Ireland, emigrated to Baltimore in 1 811, leavingone
daughter, Helen, in En^laad. Sheridan was a dis-
tant relation of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the au-
thor and dramatist. Helen Sheridan, the daughter,
was married in ll?19 to Colonel, afterwards General.
Robert BUke. Gen. B ake died in Suffolk Eng-
land, in ItfSO. leaving his whole real and personal
property to his wife, Heteu. The latter lived a re-
tired Ufo and died lnte^tate. leaving a fortune of
£'.i20,000, as stated. H«r death occurred in the
Fall of 1876. since which time the property has
been held awaitinz owners.
In the Philadflphift Teugra-ph of la^t week an article
was printed referring to tlie efforts of a family of
Blabes of that city to establish their relationship to
the oriziUHl Blakes of Engluud. in which event they
would sue eeU as heirs nt law to the vatt estates of
the deceaMed wll'e of their proKenit«r, G*-n. Robert
Blake. The Philadelphia Blakes are tracing the sub-
ject up to this date^
Daring the midille of March last, a gentleman, who
i«i a distant relative of one liranch <rf the Sheridan
family, applied to Mr. Donohue for iuformation con-
cerning William Le Fanu Sheridan and wife, the
parents of Mrs. Gen. BlnLe. [Helen Sheridan.] who,
nn stated, ou^m'ated to Baltimore. Wiliiaui Le Fanu
Sheridan is vhown to have died here, presumably
about 1817, two years previous to the marriage
of his daughter Helen. The whereabouts of Mrs.
Sheridan or her descendants, if any. Is not known.
Mr. I>onolnie bus been actively engaged of late in
searching the oldDlrectorieaof this city for tbe early
part of the present century in order to trace the
Baltimore Sneridan family. The only one of the
name found Is in the Directory for the year 1817,
when the names of Sheridan & Weaver, grocers, are
given, the address being nt the corner of Second and
Frederck streets. This sllgbl clue will be followed
up, and if SI eridan of this ilrm proves to be Wiiiinm
Le Fanu Sheridan, descendants of tbe family mny be
discovered who can throw some lizht on the past his-
tory and fate of his widow and her children by the
second marriage. If any.
The family of Blakes, of Philadelphia, make their
claim to the estate on the ground of their supposed
relatioQshio to Gen. Blake, who, according to their
theorv. died leaving a will which was declared void,
thus throwing the propertjr Into the courts, where it
would be divided according to the laws of inheri-
tance, and ther would be the heirs at law.
Tne Sheridan story of the case inclndes th<9 theory
of a will by the General leaving the property uncon-
ditionally to his wife, who certainly had undisputed
posBpRsion of It for a period of 26 years — from 1850,
the time of tbe General's death, to 1876. the time of
her own death. If a will was made by the General
bequeathing the property to his wife personally, as a
matter of course the property would in law revert to
the relatives of the wife on her death. The nearest
relatives of that lady, as has been shown, were her
mother, Mrs. William Le Fanu Sheridan, and her
children.
From this it will be seen that there may be* living
in this city at this moment descendants of Mrs.
Sheridan by her second marriaee. Mr. Donohue in-
tends iDTestlgating the relationships of all the Sheri-
dans of the city with a view of tracing Mrs. Sheridan
and discovering the name of her second htuband.
This done, the name of her children, and the legal
heirs, will be discovered.

SUBYiyOR OF THE FAH07B BATTLE ON
LAKE EBZE.
From Vu Olndand (Ohio) Btrdtd, Apra 4.
Shelby. Richland County, has the hoiio^ of
heing the home of a m.tn who, as the - records of the
Pension Office show, is the only.mao living who was
with Commodore Perry when the famous battle of
Lake Erie was fou.{ht. At this quiet little village
the old hero, whose namb is John Rice, now^dirly
87 years ot age, is spending in peace and prosperity
the evening of an eventfti} life. A Beraid correspond-
ent furnishes tbe following sketch of the-old soldier's
life, getbered from Mr. Rice's own lips : *■
John Rice was bom Aug. 22, 1791, in a, small
town in the interior of Pennsylvama. where 'he re-
ceived the tisual education ot the farmer-boy of that
period. At a time when the Western Airmv w.is
smarting under the shame and disgrace of Hull's su -
render at Detroit, he enll ted at Lewision, P)»nn.. lu
Capt. Rogers' company of volunteers, and shortly
after took up a line of march for Erie, where they
arrived April 32, 1813. Commodore Perry was
thereat the time, with the Lawrence and Niagari,
getting ready to beard the British lion, and Mr. Rice
accepted an offer of $25 for a three months cruise.
After the time hod expired he was transferred, with
several of his companions, to the schooner Scorpion.
Cant. Christ. Cliamplin, of Carlisle. Penn. It was
in this sblpthat hepartLcipatedintheenzazement. In
several Importantinstanceshis story materially differs
from aiTcepted authority on the subject. When Pen-y
left the ill-fated Law-rence in his little boat he was
rowed by only two men — Jacob Tool and Aleck Net-
lau-'Who were the only persons In the boat besides
liimaelf. the scorpion escorting them to the Niagara.
Mr. Rice was an eye-witness to the shot that crashed
throueh Perry's boat and saw him jerk off tils coat
and stuff it into the hole to keep it from sinking. In
that terrible llne-pierclng dhafge. which occurred
shortly after on the front of the enemy's ships, tliat
gained the day. the Scorpion did noble work with her
deck-sweeping broadsides, and Mr. Rice stood ^p
manfully with the rest of the heroic crew. Soon
after the battle he was again transferred to the land
force, and was in the battle of the Thames. He
avers that he raw Tecumseh shot by Col. Johnson iu
the thickest of tbe fight. Col Johnson's horse hav-
inz been shot under him, Tecuin^eh rushed toward
him with uplifted tomahawk, but was tmtnediatety
stricken down by a bullet from Johnson's pistoL
Bits. LINCOLN'S PJtESENT HESIVENCE.
From the Upringfield (IIL) Joitmal,
A friend of the Journal in California sends us
the following from the Afto California ot San Fran-
cisco, with the request to know if the statement is
true:
"It Is a sad factthat Mrs. Abra^am Lincoln Is living
a 8e<:luded life iu an interior town of France, and de-
clines to return to Ameri<'H ledt she way again be
placed in a lunatic asylum."'
The only ground for the above statement consists
in the fact that Mrs. Lincolu has chosen, for some
months past, and still chooses, so far as we know, to
reside in the romantic little ritv of Pau. near the base
of the Pyrenees, in Southern France. The fact that
she is in almost weekly cry-JisI and InteUizent corre-
spondence with her friends in thiscity. wouid indicate
that the rest of the story is without foundation.

WAS comparatively light, and, tis usual when such is
the fact, tbe bummer element had It pretty much its

At Edinburgh. Seotland, some years since,
the Jewels of the Crown were locked lu a bog. that
box in another, and so on. until they were supposed
to be burglar-proof. They were then locked up in
the vault of the castle, there to remain for one hun-
dred years, the keys being placed in a morur and
fired into the sea. Scarce fifty years passed by, and
the modem lock-picker opens tbe vatilt and boxes
without trouble. So the science of medicine, when
studied with the aid of chemistry and the microscope,
becomes plain and simple, and diseases that were re-
garded incurable a generation ago now readilv yield
to remedies employ^ by th" modem and progressive
physician. A decade of years since and women were
taught to believe that their peculiar diseases and
weaknesses were incurable : but now hundreds and
thousands uf once bedridden wt)men in the United
States will testify to the fact that Dr. Pibhck's Pa-

Insolence trcus nasul catarrh as a constitutional

the nasal poKsag^d are cou.<^utly nourishing nasal
catarrti. and these sordes ninst be extirpated before a

portant QiscovoW, I have fldministerr^ my berolc resump-
tive tu vast nuraberslof caiarrnous paiienta. and lu none
of those cases uas ft fal.ed to cure. My heroic resump-
tive has a loglcsl bA^is fur its foundaUon, tne. logic of
which la that 1^ extiijpates the sordea.
Prevlontj to tijentmpuc every person receives from me
a thorough sclcntiQij examination, au^ I explain to the
patient the namre df nasal cats rh, the causes which
produce it, the serersl stages anfl furms It assumes, tho
ages, classes, add culUues mo^t predlspoaed to it, ami,
lastly, those pnh<^ipl4s of practice which. If adopted at-
my office, will l4ad to its effectual cure. I will propound
a few rational questipns to those who are nasal catarrh's
victims. [
First— Have ybn erar beep treated for nasal catarrh T
If so, aid the tfeatmeni produce a dischurze of -ordes

Benf*e do yoo think v^a have received even the sllgHtest
temporary rvlief when tone of thousands of sordes are
scill remaining m roiir ns\s&\ cavities i
Every patient who IS treated by me sees an amazingmaiis
of sordes from ttie B\iBnnes of the nose, and tdl eo forth
espies^tng thelrj hearifelt gratitude for their deUveranco

nte extraordinary saoeess^ Orecu's " Short HIstorF
of the Kogjlsh People " was due to three things : Its
beevity. its treatment ot the national life beyond tho
■crict Homain of poUtics, and the admirable power of
Inoldand pietaresqae narrative shown by the author.
The story of England Is always intorosdDg but tn the
pages of Maeaulay and Qraen it is foscinatliig. Mr.
Green, who is an eramfner in history at Oxford, proved
Iqr this work his thorough saastery of Eogllsh histoty
and his singular literary akili. aod the larger, but not
bulky, history which the flrst book implied is oow ap-
pearing It has all the charm of the earlier volnm^
with au opportunity for greater pleturesqneness of de-
tail, and it is traly a masterpiece of narration. The style
Is simple, racy, and vivid; the movement continuous
and alluring. The life of the original Engilshmen be-
fore they eameto Britain, with Its social and pi>liCical
oonditionB. Is sketched with great felicity, and invested .
with a human Interest With all its grace and charm,
the book is vigorotu and wholesome in tone, free iron
controversy, but full of tbe indications of a sound j^ndg
mentanda sweet tutar& and of tbe best historical
spirit. The author's power of oondensatiou, without
losing the interest and color, the light and shade of bis
story, is remarkable. Without the slightest sacrifloa of
what is essential, he is never dry. He knows inatincttvels
that the stately proltsicy of the older historians Is now
necessarily antiqnated, and tho very fiseulty that he dis-
plays of picturesque oondenaation without barrenaess
has become a cardinal qnaUficatlon of the historian.
Five moderate volumes, of whl<^ the second brings us
to the close of Elizabeth's rclgn, eire room for a aaflh
clently ample treatment, and it is so comprehensive, com*
plete, and oatisfaotory that Green'a most t>eoome the
standard history of England, not only as the popular
history, but as the history of the people.

An anonymous romance. 16mo, doth, gl 60.
Among books coming into life in this year, no one la
likely to cause a greater and perhaps more varied re-
mark and note than the fantasy or romance which bears
ttie title used as the heading of this article. It Is a dis-
covery among books: it is as the exposition of a law of'
aeienee; It la like a new snd important invention, and.
in our range ot reading, it is nnique. An saonjonoaa.
writer, whose erudition aud study most be wide and
great, has put into language a dream, a panorama of the
hn agination, and the result is a book which Is mar-
velous in its depletion. " Seola" mu:>t make a mark iu
the Utersry world. It stands out simple and aingle in its
character, and it moat be a very dull, apathetic, and an-
Impassioned reader who Is unable to find within its paces

Th« Monmoath Park Bao»-ooxir8«, at Loxkg

XDOoth Connty, to utiiff two morteagM held by Dr.
Beojamia BftOey, of "So. 3i4 West Fonrteeoth-
Btreet, New- York. There were, In alt, alx mortgagee
opon the prop^rtj. The first was for $40,000, held by
Dr.BftUey. Theeeeoadandchtrdweiefor 98,839 27,
■Iso held by Dr. Bailey. ' The fourth waa for 95, 000.
sapposed to haVa bean held by personal friends of
John Chamberlain. The fifth was for 99,0OU. held
by President White, of the Groeer^ Bank, of New-
York. The sixth, for 92.000. was held by a trotting
association that lost money on the track last Fall
Dr. Bimey'a second toA third mortccages were fore>
e osed. and it was to satisfy these that the property
was soId« the paiohaser assuming the first mortgage,
which, it was annoonced, xnnet be paid at onoe, to
avoid f oreelosnra.
If the Sheriff of Monmonth Connty had desired to
keep the sale a profonnd secret, he conld not hare
gone abont it more privately. A Sheriff's sale of
"three bay mares" was^vertiaed all OTertfaeesonty
town by flaring posters, that were eqnaled only by
the blQs annonnetng the sale of "one fine black
horse;" bnt the sale of theextenslve Monmonth Park
property bad to be content with little proof-slips from
Bome country newspaper ofSee, which trere altogether
lost amoDK the thousands of othe? alipa of the same
kind which ornament the Freehold blil-boards.
The attendance at the sale'was remarkably small.
Any number of Freeholders dropped Into ttie Sheriff's
office to see what. was going on. bat they did Jiot bid,
and Intending liorchuers were few. Among those
who were in the Ooort-honse corridor at 2 o'clock
were ei-Gov, Parker, who Urea in Freehold ; Arthar
V. Conorer, proprietor of the Brighton Hotel at
Long Branch ; Charles Uoyd, Gen. Anderson. Mr.
D. D. Withers. Mr. Edward 6. Keasbey, of Newark,
representing Dr. Bailey, and President White, of the
Grocerv' Bank.
A Depnty Sheriff took his place In the hall and
read the terms of sale : Twenty per e^nt. to be nald
in'easb and the remainder on or before the 3d of
May. When the deed will be delivered ; the property
to be sold snbject to a mortgage of 940,000, held hy
Dr. Bailer. The foUowlnfC statement of clainu
againat the property was then read :

Besides the Sheriff's feej whloh wlU be abont 9125.
The fdctioneer had no sooner asked for a bid than
Lawyer Keasbey, representing Dr. Bailey, offered
$5,000. Mr. Withers, leaning Inxnrlonsly back in
bis chjdr, (he was one of the few who coald capture a
^air.) raised thia, wlthont hesitation, to 95,500,
sndMr. Keasbay went np to 96.000. There was
then a slight paase. which Mr. Withers broke by
raialttff saddenly to 99,000. After another inlL in
STerythins exevpt the auctioneer's voice. Mr. Keas-
bey raised his bid to 9^,270, very nearly the amount
of the second and third mortMges and the Sheriffs
fee. Some very small aidding then beaan.
Mr. Withers raised the 99.270 bid to 99.275.
and Mr. Keasbey raised this to 99,278. Mr. With.
era went np to 99,379. Then came another pause,
which was broken la a few minutes by a new bid-
der, who offered 99,500. This bidder proved to be
Mr. B. L. Blaekford, and it was said that he was
bidding in the interest of John Chamberlain, to raise
ihe price high enough to pay off the fourth mort-
nge. Mr. Withers raised this to 99,505. and Mr.
Blackford, without hesttatioa, went up to 99,600.
Mr. Withers again added 95. making it 90.605. and
Mr. Blaclcford raised it to 99.650- Mr. Withers bid
$9,655, and when Mr. Blaekford went to $9,700
the former raised it to 99.705. Bnt before
Mr. Withers' bid was oold, another long pause
began. Mr. Blaekford and the auctioneer went into
the Sheriff's office, followed by Mr. Withers, and
Sir. Keasbey. Somebody had evidently qaestioned
the gennineness of Mr. Blackford's bids, and when
It was again explained to that gentleman that the
$-10,000 mortgage must be paid at OQr«, and oould
not stand, he withdrew his last bid. leaving Mr,
Withers' $9,655 bid standing. The anetioneer
Main cried the property, at this prlee^ bnt there
were no farther offers, and the park was sold to Mr.
Withers for $9,655.
Mr. Withers announced that be had boni^t tfae
property for a number of gentlemen, most of whom
are members ot the Executive Committee of the
American Jockey Clnb. They are Messrs. Pierre
Lorillard, Geor^te L. Lorillard. George Peabody Wet-
more. Auirust Belmont. D. D. Withers, and any
others that these gentlemen may associate with
themselves.
The new company propose to give the first raeas at
Monmonth Park on the Satarday preceding the
Fourth of Jnly, on the Foortbt and on the two days
following^
John Chamberlain's clnb-honse. near the West
End Hotel, in Ixmc Branch, is to be sold by the
Sheriff on the 25th of ApriL it is said that two
mortgages, one for $27. 000 and the other for $15,-
000, are held, respectively, by Mr. John Hoey. of
Adams Express, and by Mr. Morgan Jones. Mr.
Chamberlain is sick In the Astor Honse.
By a pecnli^ New-Jersey law, anything movable
on morticaged real estate may be taken awar by the
mortgagee, and Mr. Withers, a short time ago,
bought 1.700 feet of the Monmouth Park fence to
save it from destmetion.

THE J08EBR D. LEWIS WILL CASE,
SOUK TB.ZSB. AND IKTEBESTIKO DZVELOP-
MEKTS— A KEW BATCH OF CLAIMANTS
' APPEAR— A PECULIAR PAUILT HISTORY.
Should the will of Joseph D. Ijewis, the ec-
centric Eoboken millionaire, who died some itime
ago, leaving in part payment of the national debt a
fortune estimated at $1,200,000, be broken by the
contest now golnjc on before Master in Chancery
See, of Jersey City, there will be no laok of claim-
ants for the nndivlded portion of the estate. Lewu
was an engraver. He was a man of peeuUar habits,
lived all alone, and was generally supposed to be a
badielor. He was very neat in his person, had a re-
markably dark complexion, and wore a brown wig
to eoneeal his baldneta. After the publication of
his will a yonng woman, calling herself Japa B>
Lewis, appeared, representing herself as his widow.
She contested the probate of the wUl, her counsel
being ex-Jndge Fullerton. and Senator CharUs Wln-
fleld, of New-Jersey. The suit Is still undedded, bnt
It is the general opinion that she has succeeded in
making out a pretty good case. There are two
qpiestlons involved in the contest — one as to the
validity of the will itself, and the other as to the
genuineness of her claim that she was married to
the testator. Should she gain both points she will
take one-third of the real estate, which is of trifling
amount, and one-half of the personal property, of
which the bulk of the sum at issue is composed, and
which consists mainly of Government bonda. There
will be left over $600,000 for the other heirs, pro-
vided they establish their relationship. Two have
put in an appearance before the Master in Chancery.
One is a man who represents himself to be an ille-
gitlmitte son of the deceased, but who has done very
little hitherto to establish his claim, and the other is
a Mr. Catbcart, agentteman of means, residinglo Ire-
laud, whose relatlonshtp is as good as conceded by
all part lea to the contest. The new batch call them-
selves nephews and nieces of Joseph D. I^wts. They
say that their uncle was the illegitimate son of a man
named Joseph Levy, residing In the Island of Ja-
maica. W. J. Levy lived with a mulatto woman
named Jane Wright, and had by her five children —
Joseph. Ezra. Abner. Lyman, and Flora. About the
year 1800 Levy abandoned his miatresa, and eomine
to this country, settled with his children In Penn-
sylvania. At the same time he changed his same
to Gideon Lewis, in order that no one mteht be
able to trace back to his offspring the Illegitimacy
of their birth. Jane Wright subsequently became
the mistress of several different men, and bore to
each a set of children, whom she named aftertheirre-
Bpective fathers. One of these daughters was known
as Mary Elizabeth Listed. She, like her mother and
sisters, was a remarkably beautiful woman. A sur-
geon in an Enfslis'i regiment stationed in Jamaica.
Dr. Catbcart by name, lived with Miss Listed as her
husband, and had from her two sons, whom he took
to Ireland with him and educated. One of them is
now a contestant of the will. All the.i6 assertions
have been corroborated by testimony taken before
the Master in Chancery.
The new claimants further say that when Gideon
Lewis' children became of age they aeattered. Ezra
went to Michigan. Abner settled in Rensselaer
County. N. Y. Flora married, and went to the
town of Northumberland. Saratoea Connty. to re-
side. Lyman Is supposed to have eone to Delaware,
and Joseph came to New-York. They were atl in
poor circumstances, and after a while lost track of
each other, except Ezra and Abner. who kept
np a sort of correspondence. All five are
snpDOsed to be dead. Abner left two sons
and a daughter — William Lewis, who resides at
Saratoga Sprines ; AdcJia. the wife of Charles Saun-
ders, who resides at the same place, and Nelson, nt
Troy. All these persons are well off and are bijihly
respected. Ezra had a son and daughter — Joseph,
whose whereabonts are unknown, and Arnfiu'^*. who
formerly lived at No. 152 North Pearl-street, Alba
nv, and within three months has resided at No. 21
East Sixteenth -street, in this City. She has left the
latter place, and cannot now be fotmd. All trace
has been lost of the descendants of Lyman and
Flora Lewis. Abner's children have placed their
claims ln,the hands of Sidney J. Cowen, an attorney
of this City, who has advertised for the missloc
heirs. William I«wis declares that it has always
been a tradition in the family that they had a rich
nnele In Eoboken, who was known among them as
" Stingy luffin." He says he has seen letters from
the deceased to his father, Abner, Inviting the latter
to viait him. He also asserts that many years ago he
and bis cousin Joseob had a long and plaaiant ipter*
view on the New-York pier of the cAa Troy sisam-
boat Swallow, which was afterward burned, with Jo-
seph D. I^wis, who recognized them as his nephews.
A point is made of the personal resemblance of Ab-
ner Lewis to the deceased. Abner is described as a
man of dark complexion and very bald. Like his
brother, he was also an engraver. Mr. Cowen says
that he does not propose to pat in an appearaoee for
his clients in the present contest. He will content
himself with procuring the necessary affidavits to
entitle tbem to appear as prima facie relatives of the
deceased, and will await the Chancellor's decision its
to the validity of the will. If it should be broken,
he will then make application for leave to piore the
alleged relationship.

DR. M'COSH — THE PALL*BEARERS.
.The.funeraf^rites over the remains of Mrs.
J ne Bonner.-wffe of Mr. Robert Bonner, proprietor
of the New-York i^ec^^r, were, solemnized yesterday
momina at the Tifth-A venue Presbyterian Church,
Bev. John BtSJ, D. D., Qffleiating, assisted hy R«v-
Alexander McCosh, D. D., President of Frineetoa
College. There was a large attendance of sympa-
thisinff mourners and friends, and the simple service
was made doubly impressive by the entire absence
of ostentations display from any part of the
ceremony. No flowers were visible in the
chnreh, in accordance with a last request of the de*
ceased lady that her friends shonM refrain from send-
ing floral tributes. Shortly before the hoar
for the opening ot the services, the easket,
covered with black cloth, paneled with velvet, and
neatly mounted with silver, was carried on the
shoulders of four bearers, followed by toe paU*
bearers and mourners, to the communion dais, where
it was rested on a bier covered with black, and fes-
tooned with a lingle entwined spray of smilax. A
quartet of male and female vo:cea rendered the
hymns, two in number, with which the servire
was relieved. Kev. Dr. Hall, after the singing of the
paraphrase of the pralm beginning with the words,
"The Lord's my shepherd. I'll not want," offereu a
brief prayer, and read some appropriate selections
of Scnptnre. He then delivered an address full of
tender feeling, which he opened by referring to the
fact that only a few short weeks ago most < f those.
who were then present were assembled in that same
plaee, under circumstances likt* those which
brought them together at this time. There
was this dtfferenfe, howevtr, that then
it was the child tbnt they were mourning—
and now it was the parent. Ttien it was the_^dan£h-
ler. passing away in early yonth — now it was the
mother, taken away, as it seemed, in the middle of
life and usefulness. Bnt the feelinc was the same in
their hearts to day as it was then — a feeling of sor-
row, mingled with the assurance that she who was
taken away wonld know sorrow and weeping no
more. Continuing his address, the speaker dwelt
at length on the beautiful appropriateness ot their
last contact with the loved dead being held In the
sacred commtinioD of God s honse. and eatogiz^d
tenderly the exemplary virtues as wife, moiher,
woman, and Christian of the deceased ludy.
The closine prayer wa% offered and the benediction
pronounced by Rev. .T>r'. McCosh, after wnicb the
casket was removed to the hearso. and. followed by
the mourners and manv friends, conveyed o the
cemetery. The immediate relatives present were the
husband, daughter, three sons. ■ the father, and the
sister of the deceased. The c-fBo-pIate was in-
sexibed with the followinz words : " Jane Bonner :
Bom Sept. 13. 18'J9: died April 2. 1878-" The
tall-bearers were James R. Wood, M. D.; Dr.
amuel HalL John Stewart Robert L. Stnnrt, John
A. Stewart, William O. B irtlett, William Patou. and
James FraAer. The interment took place in the

CHALLENGED TO FIGHT A DUEL.
A QUARREL BETWEEN MERCHANTS— MR.
FUCHS' OPINION OP MB. LEVT— THE
- PARTIES IN COURT.
The case of Darld Levy against Qustav Fuchs
was called in the Fifty-seventh-Street Police Court
yesterdav. The prisoner was charged with sending
the complainant a challenge to fight a duel Levy is
a member of the firm of Le-ry & Newgaas, tobacco
merchants, and Fuchs does business under the firm
name of Deutsch & Fuchs, cigar manufacturers. The
challenge, which was written in German, was dated
April 3, 137S, and the envelope in wnich it was in-
closed was addressed " David Levy, care of Levy &
i^'ewgass." The following is a translation :
MiSERABliX Fkaud: I hear that von feel yourself
insnlted in consequence of a ceitsin letter. You
good for nothing rascal, that you have robbed,
cheated, and tjenranded me. I can prove to you
through impartial arbitrators and witnesses, who
can Drove your '"dog mean " character ; you coward-
ly mock fraud anetioneer, I can produce tbem at any
moment. Bnt if you are not a miserable coward and
will dispose of this matter like a man, I coallenge
yon herewith to flpht a duel. Yon are at liberty to
'&x time, place, and weapons. I will he on hand. In
conclusion, consider yourself spst in the lare by
GU8TAV FUCHS.
" What have you to say, Mr. Fuchs. is this docu-
ment in your handwriting ?" asked Justice Otter-
bonrg- ** I did challenge him. I will not deny my
writing. Ifaad good reason for writing this letter."
replied the prisoner in imperfect English. He thAn
said he would like to consult a lawyer. The magistrate
advised Fuchs that, as be had admitted the charge,
he might as well waive an examlnaf ion. and by tl'is
means save a good deal of time. The prisoner took
this course and Mr. Adolph Kerbs, of the firm of
Kerbs A Spiess, clear manufacturers, gave bail for
him in the sum of $2,500.
The TiUES reporter spoke to Mr. Fuchs, and asked
him what inauced hlni to send the challenge. He
»aid that np to three years ago he had been m {>art-
nerbhip with Messrs. Levy & Xewga^s, having a
third interest In the concern. During his connection
with this house, Mr. Fuchs alleges tha' he wks
swindled out of large snms of money due him a* his
share in the profits, and asserts that Mr. X>evy was
mainly responsible for defrandiue him. Mr. Levy
denied that Fuchs was a partner in his business at
any time, and added that the latter never occupied
any other position in the house than that of agent.
LOCAL BUSINESS TROUBLES,
Register Dayton flas received a warrant in
bankruptcy against the firm of Rosenberg & Marks,
shirt manufacturers, at No. 22 Walker-street, and has
called a meeting of the creditors to be held on April
25.
The creditors of Samuel A. Ma^us, dealer in
glue, at No. 307 Pearl-Ktreet, met at the office of
Knrzman & Teaman, No. 294 Broadway, and ac-
cepted a composition of 30 cents on the dollar, 271^
cents cash and 2^ cents on iiotes at three mouths.
A meeting of the creditors of Camraeyer &
Nason. wholesale dealers in boots and shoes, was
held yesterday at the office of Register Ketchum.
The firm proposed a composition at 40 cents on the
dollar in indorsed notes at 10. 40. 7<», ahd 100 days
from the date of stKning the order. Eiicbtyeight
claims, aggregating $142,2S7, were tiled in favor -of
the composition, and it was unanimously accepted.
Sidney W. Cooper, lawyer, fate of No. 176
Broadway, has been adjudicated a voluntary bank-
rupt by Register Dajrton. His ^nonrn liabilities
amount to -$31,500. in addition to which there are
eight claims the amount of which are unknown.
Among the claiins against him are several for board
at the Fifth-Avenue, Windsor, and GramercyPark
Hotels, aggreRatingnenrly $1,000, and doctor's bills
for •^bOO. The principal crediMrs are James B.
3fartin. $20,000 ; J. N. Tappen. $3,140: Judson
Ely, $694 ; Darlintt. Griswold & Co., $232. His
assets are merely nominal, cousistin^ of a claim for
$3,500 against the Delaware and bound Brook Rail-
way Company, now pending in the Supreme Court.
EMTGRA-yTS SWISDLED.
There are now in Caatle Garden 12 families,
consisting of 44 persons, who arrived on Thursday
from Puerto Cabello, per steamer Hadjt. in a very
destitute condition. They say that they are natives
of Pmssla and were comparatively well-to-do in
their own country. In 1870 they and others similarly
sltTiated, to the number of 570, were persuaded by
Maurice Strauss, agent of the Venezuelan Govern-
ment, and Rev. Mr. Garousky. a minister of the
Gospel, of Antwerp, to emigrate to South America.
They were promised six months' provisions and
several acres .of land apiece, and were told that
the climate was healthy and suitable for growing
their home products. They paid their railway fare
to Antwerp, whence they were furnished a free pas-
sage on the steamer Caraiba to Lagua ra. On ar-
riving in Venezuela they found that they had been
grossry deceived. The ground allotted to them was
on a high mountain, where only ciffee and sugar, of
whose culture they were ignorant, could be grown.
The climate was unhealthy, and 115 of tbem died.
They struggled along as be^it they could, enduring all
sorts of hardships and privations, until at length they
reached the end of their purses, and those who were
able to do so determined to leave. There are still
remaning in Venezuela over 300 of the original
emigrants, who are starvinc and noable to getaway.
These assertions have been drawn up in the form of
a sworn statement, which has been signed by all the
adult males In Che party. Thev are utterlv without
means, and the Emigra-ion Commlsslunenshave been
obliged to provide them with food and shelter.
What is to be done with them perplexes the Com-
missioners. They do not speak English, and It will
consequently be oiflBcult to nrocure employment for
so Isi^e a number. In consequence of lack of funds,
It wlU be impossible to give them a passage to
Prussia. Superintendent Jackson has served a for-
mal notice on the owners of the Hadji, requiring
them to execute bonds in $500 for each of the party
to secure the State from any charge that may accrue
from their support.

Virginia Gould, colored, of No. 107 Thomp-

Gould, yesterday morning, in a room adjoining ber
bedroom, with her throat cut. having com-
mitted suicide. No motive is known for
Mrs. Gould's agt. TJntll Thursday evening she had
always appeared -cheerful and contented. On that
evening she seemed melancholy, bnt when asked
what the trouble was, replied, only, '' Nature." At
10 o'clock she knelt down to pray, and remained
with her head bowed upon the side of the bed for 25
minutes. Her husband induced her to go to bed,
after which he fell sound asleep, and did not awaken
until 5 o'clock In the morning. In the meantime,

TEB EXCISE BOARD AND THE POLICE.
The Board of Excise Commissioners on March
30 aslfed the Poljee Commissioners to furnish a re-
port upon the character of each place in tha City
where Uqnor or ale and beer are usually sold. The
Police pommlssioners replied yesterday, expressing
their wtUlngna^ to render reasonable assistance to
the Ezeise Board, but they were unable to comnly
with a request «o indefinite and comprehensive as
that made. The service, if performed, would nraetf.
cally transfer discretion and responsibility from the
Board of Excise to that of Police. It was suggested
that the desired information wonld be found in the
records of the Excise Commissioners, and that it
did not seem proper to withdraw officers from potiea
duty to make a complete and exhaustive report upon
every driilkiug place in the City. Assistance was
promised ia special cases upon application in writing
to tha Soperiatsadsnt.

IiOXDOit, April 6.— M. Bratiano, the Bon-

rest, as was expected he would do, started fh>m
Vienna for Beilin last night In Vienna, it is
bdieved that the Roumanian CabinetTs op-
position to Bnssia is real and deter-
■nfaied. The pabHeation of the Gortscha-
k^-6hlka interviews has aronsed gen-
eral sympathy for Itonmania thnraghont
Eorope. The Benmanlan nrotest against the
Treaty of San Stofano was published in fnll in
the Vienna Pdlititeh* Corraponcktu yesterday,
but it is not yet known to have l)een officially
oommnnieated to the powers.
A special dispatch tram Berlin to the PaU
HaU GazttU says : " Tbe qnestion concerning
the position of Bonmania is becoming more and
man embarrassing. It is said that Aostiia has
Intimated her des^ that the authority of Bns-
sia should be limited as much as possible during
tbe passage of troops through the priudpality,
and that everything should be avoided which
might give a character of Busslan occupation
to the temporary presence of the imperUil
troops."

SraxsertmjD, Mass., April 6.— The Hetiio-
dist chnxeh at Eolyoke, Mass., is in a peek of
trouble, whidi arises pximaiily from a woouui, Uks
most church troubles. The eharch bss oaly been
fai ezisteDee about seven 7ean, and during that time
J. B. Fszxittgton has been one of its lesdinc members.
Aftw yaat* ago be became Intimate with a mar-
ried woman in the congregation named 'Whiton. The
mtfanaey deepened sa time went on. and finally be-
mm to occasion considerable tntable both outside
and iaside the ehnieb. It was tsld that the pairweie
in the habit of entering the church by dlilerent
doors oa week dsya, wbenjio one else .wss present,
end remaining there two or tbreehoon at a time. It
was also uU thas they were accustomed to go cat
riding and waDdag together at uaaeemly faonrs. Tbe
result of all this sosaip was an interview between
f airingtoa and leading members of tbe church, and
thzouch the efforts of the latter tbe iatlmaey ceased
lor the time being. In 1876, however, tiie woman's
hnsbaud died, and, as Kanington wa» called on to
aa^st ia aetulair the eatate. the intimacy was re-
Dewa& Sbortlg after this Partington waa elected
Superintendent of the Sunday-school, but the
aattiOrlUes refused to - spprova his election
on the ground of his sJieged intimacy with
this womsD. Full of wiatn, he immediately
dehianded a chureh trial, which waa given him, and
tbe Jny decided that be bad bean iamsoeet, aad had
best be mere earefol in future. Not latiBfled with
this, he demanded another trial, iriiloh resulted ia
his acquittal, his oppon^ta not presting the cas^
becaase thev bad mors tegard for the ehnieh's wel-
fare' than dsslie to punish him. Several of Us
frMads. however, were saked previous to the trial
to look up the evidence for themaelvea, and esongh
wss'developed to convert them into enemies.
Staee the second trial the cbaich hSa been atoeace
ontwaidly, but has really bean filled with qnaxicls
anddlsliaes. This hard feeling has now ealmiaated
in tlM withdzswal of about 50 penons, one-fifth of
the total membexsbip, inclodhig a majority of the
Board of Traitees arfd some of the weaftlilgst men of
the church. Tbe teceders will not try to start a
church o( their own, but wUIwonUp with those
already ssUblisiMd. Of tlie'twe pritielpals in tlia
tnrabls^ Vasriogton ia a man oi^ SO years old, a
well-known merchant sad bss two Bown-upehildien
— a son and a daughter— the latter btinglM wife of
Kit Clarke, t)M wellrknown tbestticsT and drens

to enjoy the whole trouble.

THE LOSS OF THE EURTDtCE.
The squall which eanght this 111 filnl -| i mi.1
off the Isle of Wight and in a few miauses eoa-
sigiied some 300 men and boys of ton British
Kavy to an natamely end, haa done conaideiabk
damage to shipping. At toe tame moment that
it struck the training-sbip it caught a yacht in
toe Thames, near Eritb, and nothing has since
been seen ot vessel or crew, except a few rem-
nanto of toe yaebt'a fumittire. I was to toe
ZoSlogical Gardens when this Bante soaall passed
over London. It was a bright, cold, sumbiny
aftemooa Suddenly it becamedaik. a gust ol
wind swept throogh toe gardegis, wliirliag the
dust of the paths up into the air. Then, jnal
as suddenly, there came on a blinding
snow-storm, tallying etaetiy with the
description given of the stonn in which the Ul-
fsted £urydice -went down. "The evidence at
the inquest of the two survivors, (oat of mace
than 300 souls lost witoin half an hour of
their expected anchorage,) and the verdict of
toe jury exenorates every person from blame,
and attributes tbe loss to tno common danger
of the seas. It is not for me to cast reflections
upon toe gallant dead, -but many ships have
been lost at the end of a successful voyagv by a
too hasty desire to get into port ana it is not,
I thtok. an unfair criticism to suggest that toe
Enrydice waa possibly lost torougb the over-
eonfldence that is too often felt ty a Captain
who has under his coiamand a fine ship and a
capable craw. The Enrydice had enoountered
a stiff gale gotog out, and tbe ship had behaved
SDlendidly. Taichtsmen who know the high-
land lakM, loclis, and seas, know thp gulches
to the mountains down which the wiuds
blow fierce and strong on toe calmest days, and
when tbeypasa these pointe every hand isreaily,
even in sanshiny weather, to meet tbe sudden
gnst It was to a similar ntoation toat the En-
rydice was caught off toe Isle ot Wight She
had been under the ahdter ot the hillt,. Tbe son
was shining. The ship was speeding on to full
sail. The squall came down the ravine as she
was passing it and literally capsized her before
anything could be done \ while a sudden snow-
storm hid toe awful ptctore to a eold, white
cloud. Presently, urban all was over, tbe ann
caihe out agada, aad -of that good ship there re-
matoed on the watan only a few floating span
and two or three sttaggUa^ men. The calam-
ity is a terrible blow to the naval ser-
vice. The young aajlors on board are wliat
they call "able boys." who are next to "able
seamen." They would all witoto the few
-weeks following toeir arrival at Spttbeadbave
been drafted into tbe service, being fistribuied
among the various iroa-dsds in tiw Chaimd or

age for tiie pnrpose of completing tbeir training

When the play of "Antony and Cleopatra"
was produced at the Broadway Tbsatss about three
or tour months ago, it was pnoented with a«w
seeneTT. and tlie costonies and properties wera set
fortli correctly as having been provided by Mr. WU-
liam E. Davpnu, CQStnmer- At the time they were
famished there was some hesitatioa la tbe mlad of
Mr. VvtS, of tbe Broadwnr, aboat buTing tbexn. He
wanted to birs tbem for $200 a week,
bat Mr. Devema woald not eonient to
tliis proposition. The costumes were worth,
it is nid, about 92,900 : bat Mr. Deveraa offered to
sell them for $l,20d. As " Antony and Cleopatra "
were to be sent on a loss tourabont tbaeountxy, the
porchOM was finally mads for 91,000, bnt not for
cash. They were put fa> use, and after a few weeks
Mr. Doff declared be wonld only par 9800 for them.
.Months have pa&scd. and the coftumes have proha*
bly become faded and shabby, bnt np to yesterday a,
balance of about 9-25 remained to be paid -on tbem.
Mr. Devema was amdons to set bis money, but Mr.
Duff could not And it convenient to pay blm.
A few days igo these two gentlemen held
a eonveraaticn about their bnainess affairs, and Mr.
Daff let drop some remarlu about aendinji a com-
pany oat of the City to play " Tbe Exiles" arotmd
the country. Another request for tba " Uttle bal-
ance" was not complied with, and Mr. Deveroa
atzKicbtway determined tfaat there sbonld be an end
of tbe matter. Securing tbe services of Mr. FranUin
Bien ' as coansel, he prepared an alfldavlt
tliat Mr. James C. Duff was indebted
%o him in the sum of $225. and that
be was about to remove his property ontsids the
Jar{Mltctir.-n of tbe eoart. Tbia was presented to
ndKe Goepp, in Marine Court, Chambers, and an
application granted for an attachment. Teaterday
Bftemoon a Sheriff** officer proceeded to Booth's
1'heiure and another went to the Broadwar Theatre,
hocii of which hooses were In charge of Mr. DnS,
on'l the attachments were served.
Lost nlcht Mr. Sanders, at the Broadway Theatre,
said the attacbmenta hod been served, and that the
ooaneMr. Devema had taken was simply adopted
to Injure Mr. Duff's credit. Mr. Duff had felt that
he had heeo oveiehaqwd for tbe cotturoet, and bad
refused to pay tbe $223. Hs said that tbe money
hod not yet been paid, and that the atloehments
wonld be vacated oa Monday. Mr. Deyeina, who is

Than vp« an epoch when the moat oerrMt of
EofcUsh ladies, those wboaa months b>d b«an
fonaed latO'prlraDess by the constant mnrmnr-
ingof '^pmims and prism," were delighted to
announoe to their friends when they ntomed
from their trip to tbe Continent that thay had
been to Baden and- had aetnally played. Bnt
now an impression is fast gaining- gnrand that
Honte-Carlp la bad fpnii. The people who fre-
quent tbe tables are more ntimerous than ever,
bnt they are not qt the same eharaeter. The
Eii^iah Prince who is staying at Nice, and who
has Rolie in for all the fun of the plaoe, exoead-
ingly limited as it is, has not onoe risited Monte-
Carlo. Tlte Russian nobility, .wh6 master very
thickly in Nice, never go near tho tables, al-
thoogb they are notoriously inordinate gsm-
bleta. It one inquires for the yeteran panters
of the Oerman places one learns that they eame,
they saw, they disapproved, and they left. The
Neapolitan nobles, who used to bet ao eagerly
and gesticulate so wonderfully, haye never come
here at all. The Spanish deep gamblers, who
used to play for 14 hours at a sitting, have
marked the plaoe with their absolute disap-
proval, and hare never been seen sinee tbe first
season. There is a world of players in the
rooms, but it is a changed, a far different world.
Baden-B<wlen was essentiaUy fk very expen-
sive place, and, moreover, it was dlstinetiTely a
Summer place. It was a favorite resort of dt-
plomaey and of royalty taking a holiday. I do
not know if the Grand Duke diaoonraged bn Id-
ing, bnt it is eertoin that Qie number of villas
erected waa very limited. Everybody, in fact,
including Kings and Princes, lived in hotels,
and tiiese were, aa a natural eonseqnenee, of the
highest cbaract^, and no doubt very eoaUy.
But here, under the present regime, the great
majority of distingnished people live in their
own villas, and, therefore, the hotel-keepers,
having no one to overawe them, are every whit
as expensive, though they give neither the same
comforts nor. the same luxury. Whether one
stops at Monte-Carlo, or at Monaco, or at Nice,
the traveler is equally sorprised by the rapacity
of the charges and the meanness of tbe accom-
modation. And the visitor to Baden in tbe old
times when he oompares the (oNs SMt* of the
Hotel de la MeditarFanta, of Nice, with bis ree-
olleetiDns of the Hotel da Buasle or tbe Hotel
da France, is thunderstruck to find that for the
mlaerable fare of the former he actually paya
more than he did for the prineely tables of the
latter. The sum total per diem is, indeed, »
trifle less, but it is heeanse the hotels- of Nice
have no good baths and keep wine that is abso-
lutely execrable. It cannot be -drunk by any
one who la not habituated to vinegar ai a bev-
erage. To pay 8 francs a bottle for Bnr^
gnndy, (Uonlln ft Vent,) and to be onable
to drink a spoonful of it must be allowed a se-
vere trial to the most equable' of tempers. At
Baden nndonbtedly tbe botel-keepert reaped a
great harvest from their eallars, for they all
kept admirable stocks of Trench and Genqan
vintages^ partieulariy the latter. Americana
who know tbe stuff (old as BUne wine in the
States can have no idea of the generous strength
of Mareobranner, Johannisberger, LiebCraa-
mUcb, Asmonshausser, and Boxbentel, which
flowed perennially. The prices of those fa-
mous wines were, I remember, perfectly extra-var
gant, but that which is sanctioned by enstom
and the example of others does not seem very
extravagant at the time. And I do not think that
many people begrudge paying highly for things
that are superior in an eminent degree. There-
fore, probably those who have in their desks
the bills of Baden in the years when the tables
wen there do not look at them -with anger as
much aa with mixed feeling of regret for p««t
plesnira and Mtoniibnieat tli*t tbey thotdd
have spent so much. Bat who, holding in bis
hand a bijl of any one of the infamotu hotala of
Nice, and utterly unable to remember having
eaten a single good thing or drunk a single
good glass of trine, can refrain ttom rage and
contempt I And' they are the same at Monaeo
and Monte-Carlo, alwaya excepting tbe fish at
the Hotel des Bains.
There are many people who ignore the bene-
fits-to a country which aeeme bom a hereditary
aristocracy. I cannot say that I know of many
myselfi but there is one which I bays noted.
Arlstoerata do compel respeetf ol behavior from
those who an about them. The change that
has come over the tables in tbe way of polite-
ness is something sstoondlng. TheeixniDlersot
the old regime were of the most adminble man-
ners, formed upon the school of the flniahed
diplomats who frequented Baden. The enrapiers
of Honte-Carlo, with one or two ezeeptipns —
polished old gentlemen, who were probably in
the old establishment— have the mannara of
cavalrymen, and to look at them one would
imagine that they were dragoons who have
served their time and haye been restored to pri-
vate life. They an rongfa, they are bmsqua in
langiuLge and in manners, and Aey. permit
tbemselyes to leeCore the players, and even to-
give tliem orders. Bnt I confess that I am not
surprised, for the players are of a olass that
easily suffer aoeh mdeness. I am satisfied that
the degradation of the tables at Monte-Carlo
baa arrived at sne^ a pitch that, in
common .reelect for his' own chanuster,-
the Pr^ee of Monaco masl^ gnppress
them. The seats appear to be monopolized
eaiiy In the day by a set of creatures who live
at lIoBt»OuIo, not so much by gambling as by
steaUag tbe bets of others. When the players
arrive from Nice or Monaco by tbe tndna they
find every seat taken, and. they have to play
oyer the shoi|lders o{ those wbo b»ye (ore-
stalled them. Behind tKem, again, is another
line of ereatnn* who also live by picking up
forgotten bets, or by grabMAg the staka» of
fbose who an ignorant of Die geme, ^d who
do not know wbethtf they have -won or 'loft, or
wheiheritlsastnid-off. Wtthtbts third line.

still more extraordinary, «ie original bet r»-
liiB^ing on tbe same n!9Bben won again, add
he refused to pay thai I asked blm 'why be

affairs. Tbe poor lady waa in a state of rage
and grief pitiable to behold, and I took the lib-
erty of counseling her to leave at once, as she
bad lost her presence of mind completely, and
tbe Ibleres about her would rob ber every time,
which advice she tollowed. Bnt what a state
of things titlB shows, and whai a eontrast to the
old timea'of BadenI
Hiere la a queer old ebancter who nannta the
tables, and who, although homely to tfa« Uat
degree, la nndonbtedly a lady of edneatioB and
refinement. She has a passion for roulette, and
it has been to ber what gin is to some, and
dress to. othera— absolute ruin. Her ^paar-
anee Is marked, for she has an enormons fore-
bead, which bulges out in almost a semielnular
curve. Her nose is a bold snub, and her chin ia
large and projecting. Sbe is always clad in
rutfy black, dress, bonnet, and shawl, and tbia
brings out into stronoer relief tiie sallowness of
her eosnplesion, whi^ indeed Is tbe color of an
old parchment. 'Wben she Is In Inek she standa
npln her chair -with a great roll of S-fiane
pieees balanced adroitly In ber left hand, and wlih'
her right she proceeds with wonderful rapidity
to cover some five or six numben with bets,
fniHversal ourri, (taking in four numbera,) d
eAsntI, (taking in two,) and en pltin, (on totkt
only.) Nobody tonphes her bets, f or I believa
she would brain them with the rake 'Witt
which , she gathers In ber winnings.
Wheti she is in bad luck, she descends
to subterfuges which must give btr friends
much angnUfa. She waits until some player
comes with a system like ber own, in wUob
many pieces are staked over many nnmbera,
and when he has covered a portion of the table
with bets, she pokes in two or three 6-franc
piecea among his, and no matter what number
wina, she insists that one of the pieees winning
is hers.. What ean be done by gallant men
under sneb circumstances t She has the
money, and he ean only submit. If he is
an Englishman, he turns red in the fsoa
and says nothing. It he Is a Frenchman,
be shrnst his shoulders, extends his banda,
palmt upward, deprecatlngly, and looks round
'With a martyrleal smile (or sympathy. Thl»be
is aBre to receive from, tbe bangera^n. who all
cry. ■■ J<«>trimrs<« trir aalant, ma Joi." There
is another strange praetitioner who is on speak- -
ing terms with this ladv. I think they talk
over eombinatlona. He has a piece of paper
and a pencil, and be studies the numbers for
hoQTS before playiitg. "Fhen be eommeneaate
play single S-traae piecea on six numbers, and It.
Isextraordtnary how often at Orst he wins. If a
friend drags him awi^ after ten bets be is mn-
efUly a heavy -winner, comparatively ^eaUh^,
bnt'U be remdm longer fae U tan to lose all
bis nias and bis orij^nal piece. He has an ex-
ceedingly intelligent faee, but people do not
like him for a neighbor, for he is trishtfoUy
dirty, and perfumed with garlic to a degree
which is almost lubeanble. I was told that
he bad been a Professor of mathematics in an
Italian university, and was Uvlng on a small
annuity, five-sixths of which was absorbed by
the tables.
The instinct to gamble is tmiversal, but it is
seldom that in dvUised lands one sees that ira-
preme devotion to it which eompletely Ine-
briates tbe 'victim.. This is common enoiigb
among savages, for red men, Malays, Chinese,
are aUlnteaae gamUers. When, therefore, one
beholda tbe '* feartpl examplea" of Moate-Oa^o,
one cannot but regard turn with tbe same
enrioelty that ovr faietatbBTslad'for "painted
' satvages ud merry Ind" Men, however, hay-
ing seen them will wish to gamble Juataamnch
aa they did before, inst aa the sight of a drnnk-
ard does nqt in tiie least spoil the flayor of one's
Burgnndy an hour ttfterwazd. But it ia clear
that MonMnCailo is wanting in that ari«toeratle
element 'wtaieh made the players respect them-
selves, and compelled 1b» eronpler to reipcet
tbe players. ' With alt Ita gilding ud Albambra
coloring, its concerts, its ntrdsns, and exqniaitp
seanery, Monte-Cario is as vulgar a bell aa ever
disgraced the Palais Boval a Paria. 'Itb ne
more a substitute for Baden-Baden t^n a to^

do not answer in the least to the deseriptlona
they have had fTom their friends of Badenen in

SHADED BY ROSES.
• It is Sattimer time. The little village of
GUddeadale lies ealm and peaceful beneath the
evenins sun. It is far removed from anr town,
and standa quite aloue in a valley of < nrpass-
ins beauty iu one of the fairest counties of
Englaad. Bills rich with timber nestle on all
sides; they stretch away to the north and to
the south, to the east and to the west And
I , through the beautiful fertile vale the little
|| ^ Biver Clidde winds and meandera, through lawn
|w snd through meadow, and flows quietly on by
I I cottage and by manor to the broad and mighty
■ aea. But the sea is very far away from this re-
aiote little village, the Ciidde joining another
and lar{cer river before it reaches the boundless
realms of ocean. The people of Cliddesdale
ue proud of their village, and well they may
be. The land is good £or tillage, as well as
beiDg rich in pasture; the cottages are well
built and neatly kept; the large houses and
residences of the great people are picturesque
and prettily sitiutted, and the view from every
point is splendid. No fend or petty feeling of
jealousy, or such like, disturbs the peace and
perfect serenity of the inhabitants ; all in the
place are on a footing of good- will one toward
the other.
The finest house in the neighborhood is the
Court, whioh is away from the village itself ; it
stands in a maguifl^nt park, through which a
tributary of the Clidde flows. The old house is
Itately-looking, with its two towers well covered
with ivy, and its mollioned windows with roces
and woodbine creeping round ; and the broad
terrace, with vases and statues; the smootc,
well-kept lawn, where grow all kinds of old-
fashions.! flowers, quite in keeping with the
eharaetsr of the house ; the lake and fountains;
and beyond, the wide expanse of undulating
park, well studded with a luxuriant growth of
trees; the Uctle stream winding in and out,
sppeuing here aud disappearing there, bearing
; on its bosom the white water-lily, and growing
' by its marge th« blue fi>rget-me-not and
the tall bulrush, all combine to make
H the show-house of the neighborhood.
Nearer the village are other houses
»- ^ with owners quite as rich, but not possessing
" i such a grand old place as this. This is no
' C^ modem man^n, bat is as old as the family
which owns it.vThe Grays of Cliddesdale Court
' &va been known to the county for four een-
toiies and a halt Though there is no title in
the family, their ancestry is as good as, if not
batter than, maar of the nobles of the land,
and no blot has ever stained tb*lr esoutoheon.
From time to time soml'seion of the house
has married a lady of rank and title, and the
blood mnnlnic in the veins of these Grays is
some of the best and bluest in the country. In
th* Parliamentary War the then representative
of the house sided with the Cavaliers, and re-
ceived special marks of grace aad favor fnun
the unfortunate King for whom he fought.
Dnilag this time the Court itself snifered much
ftom the attacks of the enemy, but
waawcU defended and nobly withstood a siege
oif some duration. With the Bestoratlon the
family received back the rights whioh had been

There are men feedingeattle,eome leading boms

gardens, and bat few^r womenare to.be seen.
Bat little rain has fallen lately, aad the farmer*
are giambling sadly. The roads are dusty, the
hedges are jdusty. the trees are dus^, and tha
fields near the highway are dusty also. Ob, for
a little rain to Wash them clean! rhe rerf
houses look hot as tfae sun pours down npon
Ihem. The only thing that looks cod is the
river, as it is so well siiaded hy the large 'trees
that grow so thickly npon its banks ; bat every
now and then it peeps out from its leafy cutopy,
aad lies in a silvery streak exposed tb the fall
glare of the sun. There are a few pleasnre-bo&ts
on the smooth and quiet water, but the oeeu-
pants are doing litOe work ; it is too hot until
the sun goes down for vigorous pull*
ing. A Inrge is being drawn along
bj' horses, and the man on the tow-
in^path is leisurely singing a quaint old song,
and the retrain is taken up by his companion
in tha barge. It seems strange and fantastla to
hear this Bound upon the stillness, for every-
thing is quiet; evea the hum of .insects is
scarosly audible, and the aongof birds is almost
hashed. As the man U slowly chanting away)
scarcely turning his head to the right or to the
left, he is suddenly aware of a listener who
standa in the path, but as the horse approaches
he tarns aside for it to pass. The listener
seems spell-boond by the soimd of the man's
voice, for be stands perfectly still and repeats
to himself the words of the bargeman's song,
and he does not move away until he can no
looKSr hear his voice, and the man and horse
and barge are growing indistinct in the
distance.
" I have not heard those words for years," he
says,, walking on abstractedly by the river's
side. Slowly he walks, as thoagh he has
dbme some distance, and is longing for
rest. At length, when he reaches a sheltered
nook, the sun, well obscured by the thick
branches of an oak and elm, he sits down by
thtjmust's side. He is a man of mldcUe age,
strongly and powerfully boUt. The hair waa
once a raven black, but now it is plentifully
streaked with' gray, and the Ion;;, sweeping
mustache likewise shows signs of the passing
of time. The expression of his face is ^tem
and resolute, bat there is an look of sad-
ness bom of ileep soffering there, which
makes one think be has been through a great
deal of trouble and sorrow. In his eyes Hbere
is a restless, far-away, yearning look, as th ugh
he is searching for something he has irretriev-
ably lost, a peace he cannot find. And as he
sits and gazet at the water with a wistf'il look,
he says to himsalf, *' How strange the last song
I ever heard her sing, the last I
aver heard in Cliddesdale, sbonld be
tlie first I bear upon coming to it again after all
^bese years! Ten years, ten long, wear},
dreary years, since I saw this river and sat upon
its bank. And why am I here now f Is it not
better for me to be away in the wilds of Africa,
or the deserts of Asia, than here 1 But what
matters it I Wherever I am I remember : I
cannot, cannot forget. No amount of excite-
ment or adventure can take me from the past ;
if it be absent one moment, it is present the
next. And all through the years that are to
come am I always to h& living'in the past, never
to be happy, the fatare nothing to met bo be
it, I am content. I shall not feci more acutely
here than in another land thousands of miles
away from this little place; yet, as I look
around, everythiog reminds me so forcibly of
what might have been, that it is almost better
to put a long distance between me and Cliildes-
daleu Well, then, only one night will I stay,
and to-morrow I w 11 be away again, perhaps
never more to see this place ; bat the yearning
was so great to see the little village once again,
just once again."
He sighs heavily and gets upon his legs, then
walks sifowly on. Still by the riverside he goes
for a long while; then be crosses the meadows,
and after some little time comes upon the dastv
highroad. He la no stranger here, as we can
judge from his soliloqay. and also from the fa-
cility with which he finds his way through the
many fields that Ue between the river and the
road. It is not so pleasant along the highway
as in the green fields, where some shelter is ob-
tainable from the excessive heat. A long and
steep hill lies before the traveler, but he walks
on at a quick pace, considerably faster than
that he adopted when saunteriflg by the
river's side. On bis left stretch a sacces-
slou of hills : the river is seen glancing in the
sun; the village itself, with its coUection of
homes and habitations, looks a compact little
place; and further awar still, on a sloping
ground nearly bidden by trees, the tower of the
little church is visible, and between the dark
green foliage little dots of white peep oat,
whietf are the stones that mark the resting-
places of the dead ; on his right is the bounda-
ry wall of Cliddesdale Court, and right before
him is the hill he is ascending, with a growth
of flrs on its summit. He pauses every now
and then, not from weariness, as be walks too
fast for that, but to look around and admire the
view. Every turn in the roa<I, every bend in
the river, every hill is familiar to him. There
is something very sweet in visiting the scesesof
bygone days after a long. longabsence,even when
aU connected with tbem has ended unfortunate-
ly, and left us sorrow and trouble. When the
traveler reaches the brow of the hill, and a level
stretch of road is before him, he stinds bare-
headed, for the walk has made him very hot,
and gazes enraptured on the view.
'* In al[ ray travels," he says, '• no matter in
what country 1 have been, I have never looked
upon. a fairer scene than this. Not one whit
aftered during these teu years ; all might be as
thongh I bal dreamed a terrible dream ; would
to Hvaveu I had been dreaming !"
The lodge gates, cluse at band, are open ; he
moves on toward them, looks all down the broad
carriage drive as far as he can for the trees. A
minute or two be stands thus, and then he enters
the domain, and Douglas Gray stands iu hisown
grounds for the first time for ten years. Yes.
this granl old mansion and its noble
acres belong to this travel-stained wanderer
we have been following. After an abseace of
years he returns quietly and unobserved, even
as he left, with no one to shake his hand' and
bid him "welcome" or " Grod-speed." Bat he
doea not care. He might have friends as many
as he chooses, but friends are nothing to him ;
he has t>een without the pale of their society
too long to need them now. Abroad, in every
country and in every clime, he has been atone
with his trouble and sorrow, away from all
that could remind him of the past ; but so mat-
ter where he has traveled he has been unable
to banish his grief, and be returns now as sore
at heart and as wretched as when he left ten
year* ago. Of coarse time has brought a soften-
ing infiuence, but still men of his calibre cannot
and seldom do forget. He has neither father
nor mother, brother nor sister — he is quite
alone in the world ; he never kn^w a mother's
love or a father's care, and sister or brother; he
never had.
He follows the drive, lookins about him to
s^ if any alterations have been made, and only
leaves it to go upon the soft velvety grass of the
lawn. He goes into every nook and every soot
made dear by associations, and sighs every now
and then as he thinks of the time long ago.
What good is this splendid place to him now?
All the rooms are shut ap save the few justoccu-
pied by those in charge. He will never live here
again ; he has said none of his name shall ever
inherit it. With him the Grays of Cliddesdale
cease. Many men marry just for the sake of
perpetnating a name, of bnnging an heir to an
ancient iiouse ; but not so with him ; tie wonid
ratber let his line become extinct than marry a
woiian he has no affection for; aad af-
fection for mortal woman he will' nav-
er have again. He loved one* so
fondly and so truly, that love wlU never come
to him more. He has been, and ever will be,
content to wander lonely through the 7orid,
with nothing more to cling to than the memory
of > pure, fond, and devoted |[iri. That mast
be oiousb to sustain him till life eeases, for ha
has no object or ambition in bis aimless, pur-
poseless life. Yet who shall say his life i* aim-
less or purposeless 1 With his wealth he does
much good, not ostentatiously, but quietly, so
that no one knows of what he docs. Mneh suf-
fering he spares, and much sorrow he lessens, in
his simple qniet 'way. Once hv was bold, dar-
ing, reekleu, living a life of 4t*aipat9Dn and

the happiest woman; but a shadow ^ame be-

suddenly fade from him ; he?powerIea* to keep

absorUng. He, a strong, brave, daring man of
the world ; she, a simple pare-minded girl : she
loved him for his manliness and noble generous
self ; and be loved her for her artiess ways, and'
sweet, loving, trusting nature. They loved
with tii4rlove that, once awakened, never dies—
that lives through yean, forever. No matter
the vicissitudes It undergoes, no matter whether
together or separated, it still buriis on. the one
pure flame that lighti souls united by its power
tbrou&rh the dreary course of worldly toil ; and
even if death come between, it can be true and
faithful, until it be made perfect in the land
l>eyond the grave. I>oaglas Gray, who lived in
XiOndon among rank, talent, and beauty, and
saw the most beautiful women of his day, came
down in the midst of his wild ca-
reer for a little reeeation at his
country seat, wearied and satiated with the
life he was leading, and met the Vicar's daugh-
ter, a little shy, white violet, compared to the
women be waa accustomed to meet in the
crowded assemblies in town. There was some-
thing al>oat her dlftereat from the fashionable
bellc-t of society ; something so innocent, fresh,
and childlike, that love eame unbidden, a wel-
come guest From the day he told her of his
love, and beldherstrained to bis bosom, shower-
ing kisses on her, greedy unsatisfied Mases, be
first knew what unalloyed happiness is — happi-
ness where everything is complete, nothing
missing, nothing wanting. Shortly after he
knew what real misery is—misery for which
there is no opiate. He knows it now, and will
know it to his dying day ; nothing can ever re-
store what he has lost ; happiness is shut out
from him forever.
He stands and looks across the broad expanse
of park for a littie while, and then tarns toward
the house.
Aloug the broad stone terrace he (|oes, and
pauses at a well-remembered door ; it is opened
to him, and be once mora stands beneath the
roof of his ancestral home. The housekeeper's
sarprise at seeing him is very great; she
thought him many, many miles away, in a far-
off co'untry, known only to her by name.
"O, Sir," she says, "and such a time you
have been away, people began to think you
were never coming back again. And now you
are here without any one knowing it It was
always intended to welcome you with bonfires,
decorations, and joy peals ; it will be a great
disappointment to the good folks when they
hear you have returned like this."
" Do not let tbem know," Gray says ; " let no
one know I have been hera to-night. I go again
the first thing in tbe morning ; perhaps I sliall
never come to Cliddesdale after this."
He walks through the house, looks at some of
the rooms, and turns away from them with a
sigh. It does not take him long to see ail he
cares to, and sooo he goes forth again. Gray
takes the short cut across the park to the littie
stream that runs through its midst, and makes
his way to the rustic bridge that spans it in one
part Near it is a clump of trees, and the
branches spread over it, ao that Gray as he
stands on it is well sheltered from tbe blazing
sun. He leans on the rail and gazes down at
tbe water. It is but a little stream, and just
below tbe bridge the stones peep out, and
tbe pebbles are seen distinctly at the bottom.
Gray watches tbe fish dart to and fro, and
listens to the babbling of the water.
"This streams fiows on from day to
day," he muses — "flows on "to the river,
and the river in its turn fiows on to the
sea, and the little stream is lost in the eternity
of ocean : even so runs the course of our lives
from day to dar. journeying on to the goaU to
the eternity be.vond the grave. After all, it is
but a few brief yean wa have to stay on this
earth. Why should we make so much ado !
There is a grander and nobler life beyond,
where all is made perfect and beautiful Then
why should one grumble aud complain of his
lot! 'Why should be not bear his burden cheer-
fully and with a smiling countenance t But it
is hard to bear up a^lnst some griefs, and it is
only human to murmur. O child, child, far away
beyond this ain-stricken earth. I never thought
I should mias you as I do ! I cannot forget you,
my dsrling, though I have been through every
land, and seen strange sights and wild adven-
tures; and I would not forget you if I could,
for it is sweeter for me to dwell on your mem-
ory than all the joys or blessings this earth
could offer me. Little darling, I have done
with happiness, for there is none for me with-
out you. On this very spot, this little bridge,
I remember one evening we were standing to-
gether, the moon shining brightly and peeping
in upon us between these thick branches, and
I asked you if you were afraid to trust me, if
you had perfect faith and confidence in me, for
some people spoke ill of me, and tried to shake
your trust, little one. You flung your dear
arms about my neck and kissed me, saying,
' Trust you, dearest J Ay, as I would trust my-
self ; and come what may nothing shall ever
shake that trust though I live for a thousand
years. And if othera should deem you false
and untrue I will not listen to or believe
tbem; though the whole' world should
call you harsh names and be cruel to you
I will only lovd you the more, eiing to
you the closer.' Ethel, I have often recalled
those words of youn. and thev have comforted
me. Ob, why did you go from me when all
Keemed ao fair and happy t "Wliv, why am I
left here without you ? '\Vbat good am I doing,
what good can I do I I cannot stay here wheu
my place is amoog my own people and in ily
own home ; all things bring back too 'vividly
the hanpy days that are fiown. Everything re-
minds me of you. of toe golden days we passed
together, never dreaming of a cloud coming be-
tween us. We were blindly, deliriously happy,
too happy for mortals traveling over this rough
and rugged earth. Little one, time can bring
no change to me. I am as faithful to you, ana
wilt t>e, as though you were with me on this
earth. No other shall ever take your place, no
other lips shall ever be pressed to mine, no
other form ever be held in these arms ; I will
be true to von until this neart shall cease to
beat"
Gray takes a small ease from his pocket
which contains a miniature of a fair young girl
with nut-brown tresses, soft hazel eyes,'knd a
sweet sad countenance. This ia the picture of
Ethel Vere, the woman for whom he mourns,
and for whom he will mourn to the end of his
days; the woman for whom he has exiled and
made himself a stranger among his own peo-
ple. He gazes on tbe face with loving, tender
eves, and a longing, yeanling look is in them.
He kisses the picttne once, twice, thrice, and
the tears are in his eyes as he returns it to his
pocket
" Child, child," he says, " why do I love yon
so much, why are you ever in my thoughts f I
have come all these miles to see the place once
again where I first met you, but I caanot stay ;
I am better knocking aboat in strange lands,
aud with strange people. I have not so
much time to dwell on the past and thliik of
what might have been. Dearest after to-night
I may never see this spot again, yet every part
of it and everything which associates yon with
it will never be forgotten."
Gray peers closer and closer down into the
water, until his bead rests on the rail of the
bridge ; and then. a.i thongh utterly weary, for-
saken, and helpless, be heaves a deep drawn
slgb, and moves away. By th* side of the
stream he walks idly along, stooping every now
and then to gather forgei^me-nots till he has a
very large bunch ; then he manages to get some
of the water-lilies from tbe middle of the
stream, where they grow largest and best
After a littie while he has a large bouquet of
tbe white and the bine flowers, and once he
says :
"These water forget-me-nots were always
her favorite flowers,"
Be goes away when bet* satisfied the fiowerahe
has gathered are enotigh, and makes a short cut
across the park into the road. He passes on,
hot througu the vtllage^he carefully avoids it
— but through flelds, some yellow with butter-
caps and'Wfaite with dai ies ; othera with grass
taiS and wavy; others with new-mown hay
lying about The hedges are thick with foli-
age ; tha faint dog-rose bloOms, and its deli-
cate perfume is abroad on the air ; the sweet
wild clematis climbs and twists about the
fences; and the deadly nightshade, with its
darkparple blossoms and dark green berries,
affotda a pleasing contrast Douglas Gray sees
and admires the things about Itim, as a nun
does who has not seen a fair English scene for
many years. The sight of the wild fiowen and
the smell of tbe hay are pleasant to liim.
Every gate he opens, even- field he passes
through, he tememben as diBtinctly as thongh
he bad been here bat yesterday. He meets very

throagh and thrbngb and never find a f ^rer.
How mil ^iny knows this littie ebureh and
this pretty burjrlogitnnmdl: He goes through
tbe wicket-j^ateipto the narrow gravel walk
that leads to the west door and then turns aside
and goee on the giaas: among the graves. He
takes no notice of any, bnt goes up to the UU
and every now and then turns to look back on
tbe way he has 'come. At lengtii, arrived at
the very top of the hill, where the chureh-vard
is bounded by a h^h wall entirely covered -with
trailing roses, woodbine, and ivy, he finds his
way to a grave evidently well known to him,
for hehasnodilBealtyinaingliag it out from
the rest At the bead is a white-marble cross,as
pure and stainles* as' Was she who now lies be-
neath it Bose^bnshe* grow round it and on the
green grass mound at its base ; tfae blossoms
are out in great profusion, pale pink, dark red,
pure white, filling tfae air with the fragrance of
their perfume: they cluster round the cross,
some of the flowers resting on tbe pure white
of the marble, others touching the ground and
resting on the grass ; all around blooms this
queen of flowere ; in fact, the qniet resting-
place of Ethel 'Vere is completely "shaded by
roees." And Douglas Gray stands by her grave
for tbe first time wr ten years ; he has not seen
it since the grass has grown green upon it
The last time he saw it the earth was but newly
laid upon it and no stone marked the spot for
the day when she he loved was laid beneath tbe
sod he left Cliddesdale, and only in h'S dreams
and musings has be seen it since until to-day ; all
tbe space of those dreary years be has been alone
with his sorrow, -troubling no one, not breath-
ing it even to a soul. Some griefs are too sacred
to be spoken of, and his is one of such. He has
never forgotten this grave high upon the hill ;
and now he has come from distant lands to get
one glimpse of it again*, for his heart to feed on
and his mind to dwell on for another decade, or,
perhaps, score of years. Never will he be able
to separate himself from the love he cherishes.
He bss loved once and forever. The roses
cluster so thickly that be haa to remove a large
spray before he can read the simnle iuscriptiou.
Just her name, the date of her birth, and the
date of her death — that ia all, nothing more. He
lays the flowere he has brought from the littie
stream npon the grave aa carefully and tenderly
as would any woman.
" Little darling," he says, " I have brought the
blue fiowen you were so fond of — ^the water
forget-me-nots; you liked them better than
any choice exotic ; you used to say the legend
of the littie flower was so touching and sad. O
child, you little thought that the history of our
lives would be just as sad."
Gray looks right away across the hills, then
gazes on the green mound at his feet, and,
strong man though he be, a great sob shakes
his frame.
"Shall I everfomt," he continues to him-
self. " the iMt tt^e r saw yon 1 1 did not.know
you were so ill when you sent for me, but I
came, quick aa speed could bring me, to your
side. You had scareely strength to speak my
name, the name, they told me, that was ever on
your lips. We met, dearest, but to separate
forever ; and yet not forever, for we shall meet
again. A little while we were together, but all
my love could not keep you here ; you told
me not to grieve, but to bear up and
live a life of usefulness. But what is
life without you t You bad ao fear of my lov-
ing again ; you bad no need to ask me to be
faithful to yoa, for you bad entire trust in me :
and have I wronged that trust, littie one 1 .As I
snatched you in mv arms and clasped you firm-
ly to me, beseeching yon to stay yet a little
longer, your very life was breathed away on
my lilts, for when I released you you had-^ne
to dwell with the angels, and I was left upon
the earth alone."
Hts eyes are dim with tears, honest manly
tean ; he cannot see tbe river, not even the ob-
jects close by him. 'With a last loving, tender,
yearning look at the grave, be turns very slowly
away from it, aad as he does so the scene that
lies before him is indeed magnificent The hills
far away are covered 'with trees, and the green
undulatingland is clothed m all the beauties of
Summer. The river winds in and out and is like
a sheet of silver ; eattie are grazing here and
there in the flelds, and a few people are seen
about ; houses and cottages are dotted over the
landscape, and sounds of haman life are heard.
The sun is sinking behind the hills, tbe fir-trees
show dark and distinct before the glorious
liitht tbe river glistens beneath the splendid
hue shed upon it by the departing guest, and
the sky is a mass of purple, orange, and red.
A slight breeze springs up and stire the leaves
of the trees, the first breath of wind that has
been felt all day. The traveler tak(s oiT his bat
to enjoy the refreshing air, that comes as a
precious gift after the heat of the day. He
gazes on the scene with admiration, and seems
as if loath to leave tbe spot All is so fair and
so beautiful around, that after scenes of a
very different description it does htm
good to look upon this lovely Eng-
lish view. He would stand for a long
while entranced with its splendor, and re-
calling the past bat the sun finally setting and
disappearing warns htm to go on his way. 'Very .
slowly he goes down among the graves, as
though tbe plafie he leaves is very dear to him,
and he would fain stay longer there.
" I have seen nothing in all my travels to
equal this sunset to-night" he says. " The fair
English village with its pretty surroundings is
more beautiful than all the tropical splendors I
have ever witnessed. It is my native place — my
home. -Ah, there is something extremely sweet
in the word * home ' ; what lovely visions of de-
light it conjures up ! Home and happiness are
almost synonymons terms, bnt without her there
is no home for me. I have looked on the scenes
again that are endeared to me from association,
but memory is too keen, I cannot stay
among the haunts of my past I want
excitement to keep me from dwelling
too much updn the days that are no more;
they brin^ rach sorrow and pain; and yet so
exquisite is the sorrow, and so sweet the pain,
that I would not entirely for^t, even if I could.
I have stolen awtfy to have just one look at the
snrrouiidings I remember so well, and to-mor-
row I will wander forth again into the vast
wilderness of unexplored regions, into the
mighty forests of strange lands, anywhere
where I can find excitement to quell the turbu-
lent workings of my mind. Oh, that 1 may
find, not happiness — that I never can — but
peace, quiet, and contentment ! Ethel, how I
loved yon, how I love you ! and so I shall till
life is over ; and then we shall meet again, our
love reuewed^not that for It has never ended,
but made more perfect and more full. Darling,
darling,
" * Each tbooght was only thine !
Hygood, my guilt my weal, my woe,
My'hope on high— my all below !
Earth holds co other like to thee,
Or, if it doth, in vain for me.
'TU all too late — thoa wart thoa art,
Tbe cherished madness of my heart !' "
Gray repeats these lines of a much-loved poet,
with a fervor, passion, and pathos that
show how tboronghly he feels the words he
utten, and every nerve is strained and every
sinew stretched as he folds his arms tightiy on
his breast as though he ' is clasping in his em-
brace the dear object of his thoughts and com-
munings. With a heavy sigh he 'loosens his
arms and hastens on, leaves the chureh-vard and
comes down toward the village ; he does not go
near the houses ; he keeps away from them and
f9es into tbe fields. He is evidentiy bent upon
nding some spot he knows, for he has no ufS-
culty iu choosing which path to take or which
field to cross. Ete is not going toward bis home,
cliddesdale Court, for he leaves that far to
the left ; neither, as we have said, is
he going to tfae village. Let us fol-
low him longer. 'The evening is still,
for tbe little breeze that sprang up for a few
moments just as the son bade the day farewell
has dropped again, and itia as hot aa in the
earlier part of the evening, 'with not the slight-
est'Wind to move e'ven a leaf. Still Douglas
Gray walks on, taking no notice of the siutry
weaker; it ia all the same to him, be it hot or
cold, rain or snow. Throagh the guiet fields
and meadows he passes on, 'with tbe sound of
the evening birds aad the babble of the water
he is Hearing, to listen to and lull him. Gray
comea to a bridge, ajtone bridge over the little
stream that runs through his parlt, and here
empties itself into tbe Clidde close at hand;
over this bridge all the tiafic passes that goes
along by the river's side. Our wanderer standa
and rests his arms on the stonework, and gazes
down into the calm and placid waters of the
river. They look so dark in tbe twilight under
the shallow of the trees, so deep and bottomless,
so smoota and undisturbed, that tbey seem to
have a strange fascination for him.

near the mair road; aad then be deaerti it for
the dosty big iway. He is at tiie other end of
the village, b it qiite awoyfrom the houses, and
has chosen tl Is dzeuitous route to avoid pass-
ing tiirooj^i a nudst He knows bis wav full
web, for he ti irnaUside after a littie while and
enten t^ lane witb tall hedgerows and mossy
banks. Heii not entirely away ftom human
habitation, fa r aoen he emerges upon tbe con-
fines of a puj u aiid through the park bis way
lies. The pat h G|ny taks* lead* him close to
the ia'wn, whi eh is only aeparated from the park
byiaUing* aid 4 few bushes at one end. He
walka stMuUI r onl never looking at the things
around him, (or {none of them have interest
for blm. Th i boase itself is hidden from sight
by trees audi all btishes ; only a window here
and there, sei u through a break in the foliage,
is visible. I ongias Gray remembere nothing
now connecte 1 wijtb tbe place ; that part of bis
extstence asiDcia^d ivith it is clean blotted
from his mei lory, forgotten entirely. And it
is well that it is so. Even as he passes now be
is so engrosse 1 with other remembrances that
are dear to hi n, t|iat he thinks nothing what-
ever about th: s residence of the Trevilllans, a
name which t 'ould once have stirred his blood
and made his pul^ beat fast A daughter of the
line, fair an< [ gqod to look upon, played him
false when le hjid placed his trost and confi-
dence in her. Hel is deep in thought ; he does
not hear a v )ice I that speaks to him, and it is
not until tfae [uestion is repeated that he stops.
" Is that yo i, Douglas Gray, in the flesh, or is
It your ghost '" \
He turns at d cojufronts a woman on the lawn,
only separate! 1 from him by tbe railings, on
which she lei us. He recognizes the speaker
instantly, and hesitates whether to speak or go
on ; but, aftei a second, he goes up and takes
her band. i
" It is I," h I said ; " I am not dead yet"
" And we n eet thus after all these years," she
said. " Oh ! [ ani glad to see you bnce again —
so glad." I
" It is Etraa fa that you should be here ; " and
Gray glances it her, and sees she has no cover-
ing on her he d. only a thin shawl folded sUght-
ly over her sb luld^rs.
" It is so ho I: in the house, so overpowerinj;,
I haire come c at blere to get a breath of air. It
is not very pleasant in the drawing-room either.
Papa is soundjasleep, and there ik not a single
guest in the place. I was never very fond of
solitode, you remember."
"No, youj were not" he says, and in the
dusk thev look at{ one another, each trying to
see how mucU thei other is altered. They stand
confronting each other, but conversation does
not come to them freely. There is a great con-
straint on hi|3 side, and on her part she is de-
sirous of asking questions she finds difScult to
put. After a ew ordinary remarlta she says :
" It is so long sihce any one has heard of you
that people b >gan to think you were dead, or
that you had 1 lecome so accustomed to travel
you could not ettlie quietiy down."
" Neither a ,n I. I go away again in the
early morning "
"So soon! J I thought you had come to take
possession of your house and land, and
take the place yoa have so long vacated," and
she looKs up to him with an inquiring
look. She mu it have been a lovely woman in
the heyday of ler youth. She is lovely now ;
but her beauty is matured, and lacks the deli-
cate refinemen t it must have once possessed;
beauty of a v>luptuous kind, that holds the
world in thrall . anf} makes men its slaves. She
presses Gray t > come into the house, but he re-
fuses positively; and holds out his hand in
farewell, not ci iring to prolong a conversation
that has no interest for him, and with one for
whom he feels the; utmost contempt and repug-
nance. Bnt P inline Trevillian does not so wiA
to hasten away ; she vrants to say much she
never thought she iwould have an opportunity
of saying. Gr ly first met her in town, the ac-
knowledged be lie of the season, sought after by
all on account of her rare beauty and talent.
He was attract )d by the appearance and lofty
grace oF the w iman who moved about like a
queen, as CieS] atra of old might have done,
none of his softer feelings were stirred ;
he felt no Ice nor her, but admii«tion and
a longing to pc ssess that which all other men
coveted. But it the time he knew not of this ;
he thought he loved her as truly and deeply as
ever woman cc aid '|be loved ; and when he asked
her to be his v ife^ it was with joy and delight
he received h 3r assent, aud be swore to her
eternal love and ff^ithfulness. He thought he
loved her, and when a littie later, without the
slightest warning, she jilted him, he felt it very
much ; his pride ^as wounded, but his affec-
tions were not {injured. Though for a time be
imagined "he could not love again, plunging into
a vortex of dissnntion and wild living to
drown his disappmntment yet later he came
across the woman who was the good angel
of his life, and who was the first and only
one he loved-|-really truly loved. He soon
knew that the [passion he had tried to smother
was no love atTall, only a powerful attraction,
a strong infatuation, and he then drank deeply
of love, love d< )ep and fathomless as the ocean,
and unchangeable as the grave. Pauline Tre-
villian has net forgotten the past thongh
Douglas Gray i as entirely, at least that part of
it connected wi h her. She wants to touch upon
the incidents hi hi s forgotten, and see if she
cannot vibrate ; i ch Drd of memory of the time
long ago.
" And will yon m iver come back again V she
says, after a pai ise.
" Probably nut" lie replies, " or, if ao, many
years hence."
" Have yoa lo Irish, no desire to be quiet,
to cease these 'wa: iderings and setde at the
Court J"
" On the cent mr; ', I like traveling ; I could
not settle in pea ce 1 ere. I want excitement and
I get plenty of it in foreign lands."
" Then you h &ve no idea of ever settling at
the Court 1"
"None what eve r ; there it is empty, and
emp^ it will re: nai i as far as I am concerned."
"Will you :ieviir marry I" she asks smil-
ingly.
" Never," he ; insi rera, sententiously.
" You were n >t i Iways of that opinion."
" Not always ; oi ce I thought very different-
ly, as you know bub now all is changed."
" Douglas," a lie f ays soffly, laying her hand
gentiy on bis aim— " let me call you that name
for the sake of tfae old, old time T — do iiot say
no, for I must Yo a loved me once, and by my
own folly I lost you r re2ard and esteem."
" I never lovsd you," he says; "I 'was at-
tracted, dazed by your beauty ; you cast a
glamor over mi !, ai d I was blinded ; but love
tiiere was none [between us."
" You did no i 8a3 ' that at tbe time ; you told

"I imagined Idnd so, bat I fonndoathow
entirely I was mistaken, and you evidentiy

ruptiy gave me my eonge, Igrievedover it then,
but I littie knew how thankful I should soon be
for it" 1
"Donglas, but dl! I not come to you, and beg

Pauline turn ) h^r head aside, and tenra fall
slowly ; she t>i et' to hide them, but Gray sees
her emotion. ;' ; }
" I could h«i e broaght you "beauty, wealth,
a time-honoret namei but you spurned them
all." \
"Yes, fori liad found that which is 'worth

" Are you so heartless that yoa have forgot-

" Is It too 1 ite for me to atone for what I
have done 1 ni w wje bava met, both changed,
Iwth aged aftei all these year*, cannot wo renew

He looks at her, the beautiful statuesque
woman, with I er shawl thrown aside ; he sees
her marble ne :k and swelling bosom and snow-
white arms, i nd gazes on her unmoved, un-
stirred. He d .Its a chilling, ligfataing glance
at the cold, ] asaiOnless woman, and laughs a
quiek, abort ia igfa.

' Panlln« TrevUltan looks np frightened, and
quails beneath Gray's fixed, angry stare ; she
know* she has said too much, she has wonnded
him upon his sorest point He lets her arm
loose, and is going away from her with never
a word of farewell ; bnt she speaks to him, so
that he is obliged to stay.
" How fierce and angry you look V she saya ;
"once before I saw you look like this, but
it is long ago — when I told you we bad
better Jiart, when I threw you over ;" she say*
this witfa a triumphant smile. "You took my
arm in your grasp, you left tfae mark of yonr
cruel fingers, even as you have done now, and
you used bitter words, and called me hard
names. You did eare for me then, for you were
like one gone mad when you went away
from me."
" I waslikeoneinafirenxyforatime,"hesaya.
" but calm moments came soon, and I laughed
over my folly and forgot you entirely. Such
love as that is not worth much ; I .cursed you
then for what I bless you for now." '
" Can you say this to me, Douglas Gray, yon
who once swore you loved me more than all the
world besides ?"
" That was before I found out yonr hollow,
worthies." nature, before I knew my own heart
and mind."
" Listen to me for a few moments," she says.
" 'When you asked me to be your ■wife I did not
love you ; I was proud of the honor you did
me, of your wealth and noble name ; I was
proud of your manly nature and brave, daring
ways ; and all men spoke well of you and envied
you. My fault was a great love of admiration,
and this I received from all sides. One man
especially was ever at ■ my side, who was con-
sidered the handsomest in London ; he be-
stowed on me all his time and attention, and I,
flattered, pleased, thinking I was very fond of
him, gave. you up- I was terribly mistaken ; no
word of love ever passed his lips to me. "You
know of my meeting with Arthur Medwyn" —
Pauline Trevillian speaks this name with an
inexpressible tenderness — " later on, who waa
the only man I ever loved — loved, aa you
say, with all my heart and soul. He
did not love me, he told me so, and
now ha is married, long, long since.
I cared not what became of me after this, and'
came to you to beg you to receive me back, that
I might give him scorn for scorn. But from
you I only had a repulse. I have been living
on all these yean hoping and waiting fori
know not what I should have 'written to you
had I known your whereabouts. I have been
so lonely, so w^ary, that I have often wished to
die ; and now, suddenly, like one from the
grave, you appear before me, and I am ready to
ask your forciveneas again, and let me be to yon
aa I was in the da3ra when you first knew me."
Pauline Trevillian looks at him with a be-
seeching, longing look, her eyes peering into
his.
"It is impossible," Gray says coldly; "yon
can never be anything to me more than an ac-
quaintance, and after this night perhaps, we
shall never meet again."
In these tones she knows full well there is a
decision and determination which no power on
earth can shake, and she buries her face in her
hands and weei>s bitter t<>aTs. Suddenly she
looks up and says, between her sobs,
" Oh, what might havs -been"!"
"You are right what might have been!"
says Gray, with a terrible 'wail in his voice, but
be is thinking naught of Pauline TreviUian.
What might hav« been.' words that sound like a
knell to some of as. Gray looks at tbe woman
near him ; so abject and miserable she appears
that he feels sorry to see her so, for he says,
" I trust you will be happy yet Farewell.'"
He takes her band in his, and with this short
good-bye. never once looking back, he strides
away from tbe park and tiie grounds into
the road again. So he leaves Pan-
line Trevillian and never on this earth
looks upon her face again. The twilight
has deepened during the time Gray has been
talking, and now tbe moon is shining brightiy
and Stan are studding tbe heavens. He walks
along at a quick pace ; every turn is known to
him, and he does not pause till he reaches the
confines of a wood.
" Ethel." he says to himself. " you know I
never loved yon woman ; you know fall well
you were my only love. I admired her and was
infatuated, but love I never felt toward her,
not such as she would have me think. When I
saw you, child, I knew what love the human
heart is capable of — love even stronger than
death. I have never swerved in my devotion
to you ; I have not been faithless to you even
in thought Have no fear, my darling ; you
are the only woman who could ever have been
my wife, and now no one shall ever bear the
name 1 would have given to you alone from out
all the world. You are to me as though
you bad gone on a long journey, and I
waiting for the time to go to you. longing to
clasp vou in my arms and shower kisses on you,
and tell yon there is no more parting for us. I
am waiting for the time to go to you. for we
shall meet again, darling. I know it I feel it. .
What were Ufe worth if we had no sense of a
future happiness when this earth shall have
vanished from us, infinitely more perfect than
anything we can conceive of in this mundane
sphere T And would our happiness be complete
if the one thing we have loved and cherished
here till it has become almost a part' of our
breathing selves, necessary for our smallest
wants, and acquainted with our every wish and
thought, were missing ! No : we should yearn
and long for that whicfa we bad lost and find no
peace or contentment till it was found. Darling,
and 1 shall have none till I find you. 1
have loved you deeply, fondly, and truly, and
you loved me the same. Though we meet not
for veara, though through countless ages we
should be apait, when we do meet we shall be
the same as though we had never been sepa-
rated ; for, littleone,asyon used to say, * love is
love for evermore.*"
Gray turns aside and enters the wood. It is
thick with trees of all sizes jind all growths, and
over the narrow footway briers and tanglewood
grow, so that he often has either to step over
them or else move them aside. The grass is
wild and coarse, and tbe t&ll bracken and grace-
ful lady-fern spring up on all sides. The farther
Gray goes the denser grows the shade, for the
branches of the trees are so thick that the light
of heaven is almost shut out Tfae moon is
above, a steadv shining light, and is seen
through the foliage every now and tben.
Little paths go here and go there, but Gray
finds no difSculty in knowing which to take.
At length he emerges on an open space, and
then he stops and gazes all around. The grass
is soft and smooth, and a large oak rears its
lofty head and spreads its mighty branches, and
at its root the ground is covered with moss and
all the atones are lichen-grown. A tiny rill runs^
close i>y. falling down from abeight over mossy
stones with ferns growing between them, form-
ing a miniature waterfall, and the sound of it is
pleasant to hear. There are bushes growing by
the side, but there is no view beyond, for the
ground is rocky and rises to a great height, and
trees and foliage melt away into the distance.
Douglas Gray knows this spot full welL ^He
seats himself at the foot of the oak on the green
springy moss ; he looks up at the spreading
branches, sees the moon peeping through,
and sees its light refiected on tbe little
cascade that dances and leaps in the silvery
beams, and thinks the spot is beautifully fair.
"To him it is a spot of sweet memories, but sad
ones; the place beneath this giant oak is hal-
lowed ground.
' ' The soot where love's first links wen wound.
That ne'er are riven.
Is hallowed down to fearth's prefonnd
And np to heaven."
"Ethel,' darling, this is the spot beneath this
tree where I flnt told you of my love, and vou
listeded. Here I flnt strained you to my
breast, here I fint pressed my lips to yours,
here we first felt the delicious'ness and joy of
true love. You told mo you had loved me for a
lon^ while, but not longer than I had you, little
one, for that was from the first moment I saw
you. We could have staid here forever, listen-
ing to yonder fall and enjoying our new-found
happiness. How often we used to come here
and sit! It was our favorite haunt and we al-
ways remembered tbe time when we flrstsat here
plighted loyers. -One day I cut our initials on
this tree's trunk; I wonder whether theyre^
main, or has time effaced themi"
Ue gets up, examines the oax's bole, and finds
the letters, " E. V., D. G.," all moss-grown and
wellnigh obliterated, yet there they are
still traceable, though they have been ex-
posed to the heat of Summcra and the snow
of Winters. He looks at them again and ag<iin.
'and every little incident connected w.ith them
at the time of carving is brought before kim.
He seats himself again on tiia ground and
seem* in no hurry to go away. .
" Darling, I remember you told me that yon-
eame every day to this apot when I waa away
to look at the rude letten I had cut; and X
kissed-yon again and again, ud blessed you for
your love, ao deep and tender."

WHbaaob his hands fall to his side, he totten

" Darling, it is Impomibte ; yon sue beyond

He bnrtea his facie In his hands and' cries Uk»
a Uttle child. It is a sad sight to see a br ve
strong man abed bitier teara ; not one for ridi-
cule, as some would say, but for pity and com-
passion. Doug'as Gray moves very slowly
away ; he Is tired and weary, and cannot hurry.
He passes along tbe overgrown paths, under the
wide spreading brsmches of the trees, and gains
the road onoe more. And now be goes over the
same gronad he has only recently traveraed :
back throngh tbe park in the footway
by tbe railings, bnt there is no
sign of the tall fair woman he talked with
a little while ago : through the lane with tall
hedgerows and moss-grown banks ; ouce more
along tfae dreary road ; then in the meadows
beside tbe cool clear river. Leisurely as he
baa walked all the way, he slackens his pace aa
he gets beside the water, and he never seems
tired of gazing on tbe quiet undisturbed bosom
of the silent river; the moon's beams are re-
flected on tbe glassy stillness, and the tranquil-
lity and peao^ulnesa of the scene fill hia soul
with a deep calm. He gains the bridge at length
and rests upon its stone-work, and still gazes at
the placid, gentie river, just agitated hera by
the flowing in of tbe streamlet. He lingers
longs, his thoughts in harmony with the scene
he gazes on. After a while be crosses the
meadow*, elearly seeing his way by the moon's
bright light— travels along the road a littie
way, ascends the hill, and comes close
upon the church once more. He wearily
drags himself up the slope that leads to the
gate, the tall, dark trees above shadow him
every now and then, and only when the moon
peeps in can he be seen. His hand is on the
wicket gate ; he looks all down the lane he has
just passed through — not 'the sign of a human
being ; all is as quiet and undisturbed as the
dead who sleep close, at . hand : he enters the
church-yard, and the shade of a mighty elm
falls upon him, and as he walks slowly on be is
but dimly seen, and when the old tower's broad
shadow is on him he is seen no longer. And
so he disappears from our view.
Tbe night wean on, the beat as great as
over; no rain falls to cool the earth, wbich haa
been so eagerly looked for ; tfae people of Clid-
desdale sleep calmly and peacefmly ; and when
tbe dawn breaks f ortb , and the sun rises, and
the birds carol forth their joyous lays, the mau
hasnotcomedownfromthechurchyard. Theday
begins and the people go about their work,
every one to his occupation or vocation; noou
comes, and the sun shines down upon tfae earth
with intenser faeat and an old man moves about
among the graves. Suddenly be sees a dark
object high up on tbe hill where tbe boundary
widl is built ; slowly he goes toward it At hts
approach it does not move ; nearer and nearer
he goes, still no sign of life. He is near euMgh
to make out tbe form of a man lying on itsuce ;
he gets so near that he touches the prostratd
figure, but it moves not The old man thinks
him asleep, and tries to arouse him.
Ah, try as thou wilt, thou canst never arouse
him in this life; yes, verily he sleeps, but
it is the sleep of death. Soon the whole
village ia aware of what has happened,
and the man whose return has been so
ardently wished for is soon recognized, and re-
grets are made on all sides that be should have
been discovered thus. The inquest is held. and.
besides the evidence of the doctor and the old
man who found the body, that only of two
women is taken. A verdict o'' death
from natural causes is returned, and
tbe body of Douglas Gray is laid close
by the spot where they found it. He had gone
to keep lonely vigil by the grave of tbe only
woman he ever loved, and life that bad been
dreary apd beavy to him fleeted away by ber
resting-place. After yean of travel he eame
home to see tbe place be loved, and tfae spot
wfaere his darling lay ; but all his travels aad
wanderings ceased when on that Summer even-
ing he watched by tbe wfaite cross, and life, that
must faave been fleeting away, fled as he
watched, and in the morning he was found aead
upon her grave. Yes. dead upon the grave of
the one woman who was all the world to him,
whom he loved in life with the whole strength

is an Irish word meaning a falsehood, and in
various forms it is applied to riven that ara
subject so sudden end dangerous floods, or
which flow through dsNsp quagmires; signifying,
in this application, fioceitful or treacherous.
There is, for instance, a stream called Breagagh,
near the City of KilWainy. and another near
Tburlea, in Tippcrary. And Trawbrosn Bav,
at Malin, in the norttt of Donegal, is so called
(Trawbreaga meaning the strand of falsehood
or treachery) becaum tfae tide rises tfaere so
suddenly tfaat it faae often swept away people
walking incautiously on tfae shore. Spenser's
Bregog is formed by tbe junction of four moun-
tain rivulets all of at^ut the same length, and
meeting nearly at tbo same point, whence tfae
united stream flows on to the Awbeg. These
rivulets carry littie 'water iu dry weath-
er, but whenever a heavy aad con-
tinuous shower falls on the hills four
mountain floods rush down simultaneously, and
meet together i^early at the same instant swell,
ingthe little river in a few momenta to a fn-
rioiis and dangerous torrent All this is quite
well understood in tfae neighborhood. An in-
telligent peasant living near the river told mn
that it was the most " roguish " river *iu the
world; for when you least expected it and
when the stream looked perfectiy quiet and
gentie, the flood would rise in a quarter of an
hour to a faeigfat of 7 or 8 feet rusliing down
" all abreast as he expressed it I may add
that the word " roguish'' gives exactiy the sense
of the Irish name " Bregoge." — J/^vaer't Maga-

an minister, came to England aboat a eentuiy
ago, and his grandsons established- themaelvee
in business in London. The younger brother,
Francis, had tbe chief management of the eon-
oem, and so successful was he that Lord Shet-
bume, who called him the "prince of laer-
chants," recommended him for a baronetcy. Sir
Francis left the business to his soaa, and it
ultimately centered in tfae second one, Alexan-
der, whose financial influence over the Conti-
nental cabinets was so potent that tbe Due de
l^chelieu called him one of the " great powers
of Europe," while at home he received the
familiar titie of " Alexander the Great" "While
still at tbe head of his house of business be was
created Lord Ashburton, and became famous as
the British representative at Washington in
1842, when the treaty was negotiated which
beios his name. Nor was this the only titie that
the family gained ; for the third baronet was
created Baron Northbrook in 1866, and hts
son, tbe late Viceroy of India, has recently been
raised to the dignity of an earldom. So that
the titles of Ashburton and Northbrook have
both been derived oirectly from the mercantile
success of the great house of Biuings. — LotuLm

TSB IXTLXTEUCt OP THE FRENCH WOMAN.
>-In the dther lands of Enrope the in&nenee of
women may b« said, in general terms, to pre-
sent certain determined but limited aspects;
it is calming, soothing, restrainlnit, and it is
simnltaneonsly dnfy-teaehlng. eleTating, pnri-
f Ting. Bat in France it aasomes, in a multitude
of eases, an additional characteristic of a totallj
different species. It is often all that it is else-
where; it is often moderating and aoftening,
rectifying and redeeming; bat it is eontinnally
something else besides; it is— visibly and na-
tionally— stimnlatine. There is perpetnslly,
in the IsTerage which Frenchwomen exert
annnd them, a manifestlr Instigating ten-
dency, a palMbly entindlinR force, a quick-
ening, impelling, inflaming agency. Their
action can be as tender, as tnodemting, as that
of any women on earth ; but it can also assume,
with amazing ease, all the forma of Incitation
rad aronsing. Here lies its great characteristic :
It is in the examination of the reaolts produced
liy this marked form of work that we discover
the special national effect of the influenee ex-
ercised by French women. In the other ^e
ments of their empire they act, more or less,
like other women ; bat in uils great line of ao-
^lon they are themselves alone ; in this thev
"expend a power which no other women of the
world display. To see this power in its fullest
^ effectiveness, we must not seek for It at either
the top or the bottom of society ; It is in the
middle strata that it is especially discoverable in
the tme fullness of its capacity, Tho
women of the lower sections pos-
sess no directing energies of the sort
which we are discussing here ; and those of the
highest rank are too utterly without class Ind-
ance to be able to exercise a national domina-
tion. It is in tbe centre that we find the real
seting women of France — the women of energy,
of number, and of wilL There we see at work
Sznass of organized pressure which stretches
out to the corners of the land, which grasps and
orges on the entire life of the people — which
makes itself felt in thought. In tuk, and in
events. On the strange fact of the abaence in
French society of any guidance from above, it
is, "however, necessary to say something more
before proceeding further. The difference be-
tween the position and the ascendency of the
high-bom in England and in France is so
enormous, that it is essential, In address-
ing English readers, to Insist upon it with
special emphasis. We all know how Im-
mense is the force of that position and that as-
cendency among ourselves : but in France no
such force exists at alL A certain small part of
the best nol>lesJie there constitutes a group apart
— a group, of which the members bear great
names, but which enjoys no prerogatives, exer-
cises no rights, applies no teaehing, awakes no
praise, provokes no sympathy. This group is
rarely aocesaible to outsiders, excepting as mere
aeqnaintsnces ; it purposely surroonds itself by
- a barrier within which it vegetates, in ancient
prejudices, in self-esteem, and in horror of our
time; it has but few contacts with the true
life of France, with the movements of opinion,
with tbe realities of to-day. It offers to the
generation no accepted model ; it supplies no
adtuired example ; it serves In nothing as a
recognized guide. There is no national imita-
tion of it> no national admiration of it,
no national emptorment for it. It exists
as a force in its own eyes only ; the country
does not even regard it as a representative social
order, still less ns a valued national instrument.
And yet the members of this group, with all
their feebleness and unproductiveness, %> form,
most ineonteatably, the bichest society in
France. But France cares nothing for them ;
it asks them for no instruction. It invents ; or
if it sometimsa imitates, it doea so by modify-
ing, by substituting, and by arranging ; by
easting aside tit notions that do not tend to
practical application and employment. It has
worked out for itself a general state, in which
neither blood nor money is regarded as an in-
evitable master — in which both are envied but
not adored ; a state which is based on equilib-
rium of sentiments rather than on parity of
birth — on fundamental sympathies of idea rather
than on accidental unities of situation. — JBIacIe-

Inenrred his jealotia aiigor. It waa ia the Court
of the Luxembourg on the oeeasion of the
great reeeption given him by the Directory to
celebrate his Italian victories. While fiamui
was deUrerlng a long oration she rose from
her seat to obtain a bettor view of the hero of
the day. ,.CIad in simple white, her invariable
costume, her wonderful beaaty immediately at-
tracted all eyes, and a motmnr ot admiration
ran through the assembly. Bonaparte glanced
sharply round to ascertain the cause, and his
eyes fell upon that lovely form. Indignant
that even a vroman should for an Instant di»-
ttart the admiring gaze^fnim htm, he east upon
her a glance so stern that she sank back
upon her seat overwhelmed with eon-
fusion. From that hour he became her
enemy. Being present at the trial ot
GFSn. Horean, he demanded so angrily 'What
was Ume. R&»mier doing there!' that she was
counseled by her friends, if she bad any regard
for Jier safety, not to attend a second day. Yet
the jealous despot was no more insensible to her
charms than were other men. It was at a ball
given by Lucien that she met h<"' for thejeo-
ond and last time. She observed his eagle
glanee following her every movement, and pres-
ently f ouohS came Up to her and whispered In
his bold. Insolent way, "Xadamt, U premier
Ccmeul vous trouve charmante /" After the sup-
per Napoleon hitnself addressed her brusquely
with "Why did you not come and sit by me at
supper! Tou should have done so ; it was vour
place." The great Mogol or the Sultan of 'Tur-
key could scarcely have been more dictatorial to
afemalesttbject. Throughhisvileagent,Foacb#.
he made overtures to her to take tho post of Dame
du Palais. " He has never yet," said Sir Pan-
dams, *' met with a woman worthy of him, and
no one knows what would be tbe love of Napo-
leon for a pure-minded woman ; she would as-
suredly obtain an influence over him which
would be most beneficent." But Juliette Keca-
mier's virtue wa.i proof even against the allure-
ments of this modern Zenghls-Khan, and she
shrank from all hisadvances ; thereby, of course,
incurring his deadly hatred, which became more
or less extended, even to those who frequented
her salons. Hearing that three of his Ministers
had been seen there, he demanded angrily
since when the Council had been held at Mme.
B^camier's, and forbade them thenceforth to
appear there. He said openly that he regarded
as a personal enemy every person, whether
Frencu or foreign, who visited ber.^Belgravia.
O'COKNELL AND BlANCOSI.— The Libera-
tor's too open-handed generosity that once left
him in galling, though onl^ temporary difficul-
ties, sank deeply into my father's naturally
warm heart. He and two other gentlemen under-
took to set O'Connell's affairs straight for him.
They saw that his income was lartre enough to
meet the demands without sacrificing a single
farm. My father cross-questioned O'Connell
aboat the details of his property and about his
liabilities to the bank, and, unlike most men in
difficulties, O'Connell concealed nothing, nor
loft any secret untold. My father pat his
questions as delicately as he could, but he has
sold that he never suffered more acutely than in
seeing the Liberator wince and so plainly show
his sorrow. He, however, made a barsain, and
a very wise one, too, in electing that he was
not to be bothered about the matter until it was
all settled. At length the happy d'y arrived.
My father called upon his friend and found him
standing writing at his high desk. He did not
at once oegin to talk about tbe matter, but held
the bank-book in his hands, and he could see
O'Connell occasionally looking askance at
the little vellum-hound volume pretty
much as a child eyes its spelling-book.
" Well, Liberator," my father Muld, " won't you
take a look at your bank-book I" Tbe question
did not make a pleasant Impression, and my
father was obliged to open tho book ond point
with his finger to the sum total, showing a fair
balance to the credit et Daniel 0't3)nnell.
Esq. My father said thot he never would
forget the expression that was then upon Itis
friend's face. After a moment's bewilderment
O'Connell lifted up his eyes to the big crucifix
that hung over his desk, took off his cap, and
srid, in a low and reverent tone, " Thanks be
to God!" Never was my father soTnnch aston-
ished as he was then at seeing O'Connell thus
raise h.s thouKhts to heoven before he hod veri-
fied the accuracy ot the figures. No man ever
recognized more heat tily than my father that,
though he had toiled and planted, it was 6od
who had g^ven him his good things ; yet he
must have worked out the amount tor himself
and seen that it was correct before he conld
thus reverentially express his gratitude. — Mrs.

Watteac. — Watteau ■was one. of those
men of original genins who make the style by
which they are known. Of Flemish origin
though bom at 'Valenciennes, he grafted tha
French vivacity upon his native stock. Grave,
reserved, and taciturn in manner, and subject
to frequent flte of depression, his pencil was al-
ways employed on festive themes, when ho had
not to yield to the commands of his employers.
The names of his early masters are given, but
they are only names. From them he learned
little more than the mechanism of his
art. But that is all the true man needs.
'When he has learned that, he may be
tmsted to acquire for himself all that lies be-
yond and is within his reach. Like all ambi-
tious Frenchmen, Watteau's first thought, when
he tiecame his own master, was to proceed to
Paris. Moneyless, he had to seek employment,
and he found it at first with a picture manufac-
turer— for picture manufacturers were no more
unknown then than now — who kept his jour-
neymen occupied in producing imitations of the
old masfters or devotional pieces for village
chtirehes and private oratories, as one or the
other were moat in demand. As soon as he
conld, Watteau escaped from this dmdgery,
and for a while worked nnder Claude Glliot,
who was engaged in painting scenery for the
opera and designing costumes for the ballet.
'The ballet then was as unlike the ballet of the
present day as wos the scenery of the ComMie
IlaHenne to the scenery of the Theatre Royal , Co V-
ent Qarden. The ballet was an elegant pa»toral,
the seenery neat anil eleeauttomateb. It was in
watebing these graceful idylls of the theatre
that Wattean, we need not doubt, insensibly
aoquired his taste for refined pastoral subjects
and his style ot representing them. How long
he continued In Clillot's cMlier Is uncertain.
But while there he was preparing himself for
original work. He loved, we are told, to stroll
about the place^pf holiday resort, and sketeh
unobserved any persons or habits that eanght
his fancy. Especially he used to watch and
sketeh the mock doctors, who, dressed in fand-
f ttl robes and mounted on a platform, rehearsed
with extravagant gestures and bombastic
phrases the wonderful cures their pills or
draughts had wrought. Itinerant musi-
cians, mendicants, and market-folk, and
all sorts of unusual or picturesque ohanieters,
fotmd a place in his note-book. It may be he
was at this time contemplating the producing
French counterparte to the Dateh and Flemish
kermes, which the Ostades and Tenters had
Tendered so popular, or possibly he was only
'Working tn that vein of grotesque and carica-
ture In which he about this time indnlged, bat
-which happily he,Boon east aside. Some of hts
ttodiet In the Grosvenor Gallery show that he
did not confine bis pencil to these tabjeets.
Among tbem are drawings of a Savoyard boy,
of a yOnng man in f estel costume holding across
his utoulders a staff, arotind which vine leaves
are entwined, and ot an old beggar woman ; but
there are also corefnl studies of yontfafnl female

A CooKiNa Match. — Old Grecian, some
time cook at Slaughter's Club, ■was pitted
agaliut Lambert, of Covent Garden Theatre, in
a cookingmatch. Oh) Grecian had long been
vexed at hearing the steak-cooking In the Cov-
ent Garden scene-room cried np by everybody.
One day Lambert told him that it he would
come to the theatre he would give him a lesson
in the art The worthy cook wv mighty wrath
at the Impudence of a scene painter pretending
he conld teach him, the godson of Centlevre,
a child of the Queen's privy kitehen, her
Majesty's yeoman ot the month, tbe favor-
ite pupil of her Majesty's master cook, Pat-
rick Lamb. "Challenge him to a broil-
ing matebr' said Painter Sim, patting the
angry old fellow's bald pate. " Will you dare
try your skill, Mr. Lambert I" cried he. " What
man dares, I dare; your place against mine!"
was tbe amateur's ^ply. The match came off
the same afternoon at Slaughter's, in the pres-
ence ot a goodly throne of "steaks" and
Slaughter's men, Hogarth beingoneof tbenum-
ber. Two umpires were chosen, and they de-
creed there should be three " heats" with pound
cuts. To work tbe rivals went. Lambert
handled the tongs like a master of the craft,
and brought down the hottse. Seizing the
ix>ker, the exasperated cook gave tbe &n, al-
ready fierce enough te roast a salnmaiTder, snch
a savage poke that Lambert jumped back In
dismay, and shaking old Grecian by tbe band,
exclaimed: "I yield the palm of victory, thou
man of fat, more worihy ot a golden chain than
Wolaey's mighty cook!"— .dZI (*< Ytar Sound.

Talma. — This aeoompUshed actor oeea-
alonaUy vlaltod London, and treated the ama-
tatdrs of our metropolls.to a iatte of his quality)
by peirformlng teleetlont frbb his most poptUar
pieees in company ■with Mile. Georges. He
waa an Intimate friend and great admiirer o^
John Kemble, and waa present, not only at that
tragedian's farewell appearance, bnt also at ■thA
dinner subsequently given in his hoiior. .He
spoke English finently, but with a strong
aceent; that he eould write It pertectiy Is evi-
dent from the letter quoted in Mr. Raymond's
memoir ot Elliston, in acknowledgment ot a
tatidsome Roman sword sent to nim by the
Drury Lane maiiager. This epistle, highly in-
teresting and expressed vrith equal elegance
and correctness, concludes as follows : " God
bless you, my dear Elliston, and let me tell you,
like the doctor in otir Moliire, • Salus, honor, et
argentum, atque bormm appetitum.' 'Tour ever
well-wisher and friend, TWma."
In private life Talma was thoroughly amia-
ble, fond of society, and entirely free from pre-
tension. Once off the stege, he was no longer
the actor, but the polished and genial man of
the world, eager to oblige others, and never
happier than when it was in his power to serve
them. Generous and open-handed to excess,
he was far more disposed to squander than to
hoard ; ond through his recklessness in money
matters, found himself more than once in em-
barrassed circumstances. "If my tastes were
aa expensive as yours," one day remarked his
wife; "it! wished for diamonds and brilllaht
equipages, what would you aavt" "In that
case, my dear," coolly replied Ta'ima, " I should
say that we were likely to be still more in debt
than we are now." His chief delight consisted
in tho embellishment of his country house at
Bmnoy. There he was In the habit of organ-
izing private theatricals, the pieees beingmostly
selected from the repertoire of the Varifit^
Like his successor Rachel, who considered
her C^Umtne and Marinette masterpieces of
acting, he strangely enoogh imagined his forte
to be not trairedy but farce, and after a deplora-
ble faibire in " Le D^sespoir de Jocjisse,"
gravely asked his friends If he did not act it
better ttan Biynet. He had a bad memory for
names and faces, and often fell into conversa-
tion with strangers, fancying them to be old ac-
qnaintencea. While walking with his wife one
morning, a young man accosted him fainiliarly,
and engaged him in a discussion on dramatie
topics. 'Talma was in high spirits and en-
chanted with his agreeable companion, and
when they separated it was with apromlse on
both aides to meet again aoon. " Who is that
gentleman 1" inquired his wife when tiiey were
alone. "Mafoi, I taven't the least idea," re-
pUed the tragedian. " But you seemed to
know him very well ; yon called him yolir
friend." " 'Very likely ; but now I think of it,
I don't remember ever having seen itim before
to-day."— ^K the Year Sound.
Honor and SBAtiE,— Teteyenwarfora
bad canse haa thia Apology, ttat the bad eaose
nay in good faith be mistaken for a good one,
and in this ease it is preferable to a war for no
cause at all. The bllod fanaticism which ealls
evil good and good evil, and which includes
something betides self In the scope of its desire,
is less ignoble than the cynical indifference
which accepts war and all its horrors ■without
■watebing or caring how tie thp weights tn the
scale of lustlee. Men talk as if we were free
to fight, as a Scotch lord would fight in Edln-
bilrgn three centuries ago for the centre ot the
causeway ; or aa a boy fought at Eton in my
time to determine whether he oould or could
not ' ' lick " another boy ; or at in Ireland, at
a fair, sbillelahs were flourished, and headscru-
elly mauled and broken, for tbe simple prefer-
ence ot one name to another, or for tbe pleashre
ot that excitement which fighting brings. If
we are to revive, in the present daylight, the
levitlea of childhood, the nlanners of a semi-
barbarous age, or tbe excesses pardonable in an
overdriven people. It is high time to teke heed
and to make some inquiry concerning the paths
of honor and ot shame. A war undertaken
without canse is a war of shams, and not ot,
honor. In the Summer of 1849 I tat by a Red
Republican in a blouse, who WaS driving a team
of seven horses in the Besanfon malU-poste. We
talked together ot the polities of France ; and
he said to me, " Alt Motituur, U nou fimt «he

not much matter for what, or with whom. I did
not then expect to see the day when the tem-
per ot a part of educated England would. In one

which a Jew Icou d scarcely surpass, according
to a writer who ta one of the former class. It
was in 1816, whi n Byron had Uft England for
the last time, land er the cloud caused by his re-
lation to hta 1 hto, ^bat the poet took up his resi-
dence In 'VenI ee. Bit letters to Moore and Mur-
ray from tha i ei ty are devoted ehiefly to two
sabjeets— his aeai idalons amours and his study
of Armeatai. "I found," he -writes to the
former, "tbi.t iiv mind wanted something
craggy to bn ak upon, and this— as the most
difBeult ^tn t I conld discover here for an
amusement— [ i avs ohoaen to torture me
into attention . I s is a rich language, however,
and wotild am ply repay any one the trouble of
learning it." No ; only did be spend a good

ArmtHia still exli ted at either of the unlver-
ritles, bnt b« id nself translated the paendo
eptsties of ths Oninthlana to St. Paul, and
fromSt PanlUaieply. Byron's knowledge of
the canonical nil tngs and of Biblical criticism
waa below thi t e ren of his day, when, after
studying the ( vid tht forgeries, he conld -write
to Moore of the correspondence, " It seems
to me very orti.odoz, and I liifve done it
into Scriptor d p ose English." The transla-
tion will ta toi tnd in. the appendix to Moore's
LttfriandJmmatofLoriBuroH. Of greater
value is tta p Mt' i aeconnt of the Impression
made on Iiim I y t |e brethren of the order, who
still show withpiide tbe table at which he
studied. His vor Is are still more applicable to
the orthodox I lajc rity who have retained the
comparative p mt r and simplicity^ Gregory,
their founder. " These men are the prlesuiood
of an oppress) d ai id noble nation which has par-
token of the proi eription and tandage of the
leyrt and the i irei ka, ■without tta suUennets of
the former or phe lerrility of the latter. This
people has att dne i riches withent usury, and
all the honors thi t can ta awarded to slavery
without intripie. But they have long occu-
pied, aeverth kits i, a part of ' the house of

It is a great austortone to admire a^f

mtdat ot a pathleas ■wildameas. Hence, the

is Indi^utablcfer nature is the one parfeet
artist tiut never wotuds, and alwi^ wins yoa
bt doter aad more eompreh'entive study. Tta
man is bliad wta eanaot see beauty In fees ttan
a whole moimtain. Iloae ■who run to the ends
of tta earth tor scenery might gain mneh
knowledge and eajoymeBt from the ttady of a
square rdd ot meadow, of ■woods, or a view
from some litUs bill back of their hotue.
For the eajoymfflit of nature depends on your
own scrutiny and sympathy, more than on a re-
markable or extensivB view. The eoltivated
Walker can enjoy either a farm or a forest, be-
cauae fa either place he sees a world of faterest-
fag aad admirable sights. Hence, he does not
Stay at home because he has hot time enongh to
tramp through the White Hotmtaias or Swit-
telland ; tat he goes to such parte of the coun-
try as ha can reach, and tnnea himself to the
appreciation of the beauties before him. Our
nervous pursuit of excitement takes 'as away
from the enjoyineht dt scenery. We crave the
ntarvelona fa nature — the Tosemlte Yalley, or
the fis&ona of tbe Colorado. ■When we speak of
a bteutifal view, we imagine a solitary lata at
the foot of beetling crags, a primeval forest
sighing on ite shores and rimng to snow-capped
mountains, all aglow nnder the fiery heaveiia.
Such Vidws certainly give inexpressible enjoy-
ment; tat We cannot just now do otir duly work
fa heaven; quite on the contrary, we mtist
live fa New-Tork, and esteem ourselves tappy
it we can go to market and .get oar doily potato
as an emblem of nature's paradises. But be-
tween whiles the walker can find great enjoy-
ment In the cotmtry ataut the City, and tta
miny views of quiet and nnobtmsi've beaaty.
He should,, therefore, forget for the time the
wohdets ot the earth, and study the ehaJAns of
a slopfaglawn or paStnre, the secrete of the
eommon woods and fields, the liquid notes of
the robin, the shadows movfag over taya and
towns, the life of farms, and, mdeed, a thou-
sand varied attractions spread on every side.
Such a course of sober study of nature will re-
ward him richly in the present, and still more
in the future, when his culture taspreparedhlm
for more strlldng pictures.
The north shore of Long Island otters many
charming wallts. The cotmtry is rolling, and
although the hills are not very high, tiiey
give extebslve views over farms, villages,
foreste, tays, the Sotud, and the Atlantic
Ocean. The fateresting form of the cotmtry
may ta seen on the map. Long narrow
bays run inland, sonthward from the Sound ;
the mam range of the hills goes east and w est,
across the heads of the bays, and side ridges
run north from the main range, and slope down
to the low pointe between the bays. Long
Island is a deposit of boulders, gravel, and
sand brought from the mafa shore by glsciers.
It dates from the drift period, when the conti-
nent, it is snpposed, was covered ■with Ice to tbe
depth et lO.UOO feet. These bays are the fiuv
rows plowed by tbe pointe of the glacier, and the
irregular hills are the mounds of debris, rolled,
nound, and finally deposited by the same agent.
Bedrock, I believe, nas been found m only
one place, at Lons Island City, and yet at Bor-
num s Island, on the south side', the borings for
an artesian well show the : drift to extend be-
yobd 300 feet in depth. The cute of the rail-
roads all show the composite elemente of the
island — boulders ot granite, hornblende, &o.',
gravel, sand, now and then a boll of clay fa the
midst ot a sand bed, and the sedlmeptary de-
posite mode at short intervals of time on
beaches of -various faclfaations. .Tta tea
washed down the gravel hflts all along the
south side and made a plafa; at the north
side the hills dip more abruptiy to the Sound.
The ■water level is but little above tide ; fadeed,
on tbe south side a hole dug two or three feet
deep in the beaeh sand is filled at onee with
pure water. The walker may take a practical
iQterttt in the geological formatioit of Long
Island, because Ite gravelly subsoil relieves the
surface ot water and secures good roads early
In the Spring, and even immediately after quite
heavy rains.
The route t followed is by the Flushing and
North Side Railroad to Great Neck, uid from
there around and across the capes called Great
Neck' and Cow Neck to Qlencove. a distenee of
about IC miles. FoUow the road from Great
Neck Station to Grove Point ; then go south near
the shofe to Manhasset, and from Manhaaset
northward along the shore to Port Wasbfagton.
The fertile country offers many pretty views of
farms, villages, wooda, and water. Tbe hull ot
the old ocean steamer on the beach, fishermen's
sefaS reels, sloops at anchor, and many other
features make up a variety ot etaracteriatio
tcenea.
Long Island Sotind dorfag the Revolution
was the scene of a peculiar ■warfare waged by
whale-boat privateersmen. It is onr nearest
approaeh to the depredations of thejforthem
pWites on the coaste ot England. Our fleeta of
whale-boate, with their crews fa very common
hats, shirts, and trowsers, agricultural or pisca-
torial cut, ■were certainly not as picturesque as
the ancient golleya ■with their banners,
their bulwarks of shields and spears,
and their gallant ehieftafas fa gorgeotu
costumes. But the two wars were more
alike in examplea of reckless bravery,
fa the pursuit of plunder aa well as political
prizes, and fa the tarbarotis means often
adopted to secure an end. The whale-boat waa
manned with from 6 to 12 men, provided with
swivel guns, arms, lanterns, axes, and other
tools stiitable for maraudfag expeditions. They
were the hawks of the sea, swooping down on
their prey, and then fieefag like the ■wind.
They came fa stealth, ■with muffled oars and
under the cover ot night. They often boarded
and surprised the coasting vessels loaded with
wood or provisions, or e^ven a British man-of-
war when the watoh -wtu asleep and the officers
were sfaging over their cards and-wfae. They
would ^de np to the beaeh, whisper their com-
mands, and then file off in squads through the
woods towwd some isolated farm-hotise or
some -village stor^ A patrol waa aome-
tlmes to be avoided along the shore,
or a watchman, or even a guard at
the moat Important houses. They often weat
toeaptare a promfaent citizen for the sake of
ransom, or for makfaghim an exoliangefor
some prisoner of war in the opposite Unes ; and
often, too, purely for tta sake of robtary, even
at the prlee of blood. Thtu the lives and
property of the fahabitanta of these necks and
bays along the north side were fa constant
daager, from tath 'Whig aad Tory baads tant
on warlike captures, and from diagidsed
men in pursuit of plunder. Some farm-
ers had uielr doors aad windows proteeted
by iron bars. Onp merchaat ois Cow Neek had
his store built like a bloak-faouae, bullet-proof,
and provided wtth port-holes around the seeoBd
story, -where he kept his goods. Eves^ one
kept their anas ready, aad used tiiem to the
best of their ability. Men ot ImportaaeeoftBa
slept from home and fa secret placee la tta'
woods, to avoid capture. Soaie ■wh&a fonad It
tast to live fa Coaaeotient, though their fami-
lies lemidned oa tbe islaad. It was not nansnal,
tfaetefore, for families withfa the British
liaes to ta exehaaged for those wltfaoat.

ror, and distress hard to realize to^ay, fa the
presence of such peaeefnl scenes and flooded
-with sunshine.
Go east from Port Washington to tiie top of*
the hill for a fine -riew over the tay, the Sound,
and the surroundfag country. The slopfag ot
the hills to tho water, the curvirg of the hnea
along the beach, the melting of forms aa tta
eye runs further and further into the distaaoe,
all make a very charming scene. Gontimie
eastward through the fields or woods down to
the shoi« of Hempstead Harbor. There, again,
ypu get delightful views of water, beach, bloffa,
and plctoresqne villas and villages. Tbe peb-
bles, sea-weed, and bo-ulders of the beach are a
new study as you go south to Roslyn. nestled
among the hills around the head of the tay.
Harbor Hill, at Eoslyn, is well worth visiting.
It is the highest land on Long Island ; and al-
thongh only 394 feet above the aea. it com-
mands a remarkable vie-ic It is said to ta the

'The southern half ot the circle faclndes the
low plains extending from the main range ot
hills to the sea. To-wns. woods, fields, and farm-
hotises diversify the level as far as the eye can
see. The sea lies away off, as if tatween the
heavens and the earth, and ships stand out as
if departfag on aerial voyages through the
realms of space. The northern half of the
world abont you Is mora varied. The Con-
necticut shore comes ■winding down from the
hazy eastern distance ; back of it the horizon
runs westward as an . undulating line ot
dark blue over many hills, aome peaks
ot the Highlands, the Palisades, and
melte away in the motmtains of New-Jersey.
The cities in the west flash ■with spires and
gleaming glasses through their veil of smoke.

A TBAVESTT OF SSFOBM.
It ^11 be remembered that Tammany
fiall turned to excellent account last Fall
the cry that the Bepablicaa Party intended
to " disfranchise " the majority of the voting
population of this City by means of certain
constitntionalamendments, which placed the
control of Municipal finances in the ^ftwrji^
of a board elected by tax and rent payers.
These amendments were regarded with
so much trepidation by the working politi-
cians of both parties that they failed to
get indorsement from either the Bepnblioan
or Democratic State Convention, and the
" disfranchisement " cry proved so trouble-
some an element in the campaign that no
KepnbKcan in' eitiber house of the Legis-
lature has foand courage enough to intro-
duce the amendments this ses^ou. And
yet the financial affairs of the City are
now regulated by ' a board only two
of . whose members are elected by
the people, and the master spirit of which
is not elected at all. pn this board — or
rather on Johk Kkllt, who controls it— a
majority of the lower house of the Legisla-
ture has already agreed to confer certain
additional powers which will make it not
only the supreme authority in taxation and
expenditure, bat will give it the right to
regulate the minnteat details of the man-
agement of every department of the City
Government.
The act which is erroneously called the
jManicjpel Salaries bill confers on the Board
of Apportionment the power to "regulate"
. all salaries, fees, &c., paid directly or indi-
rectly- from the (Sty Treasury. It nowhere
allnd'es to the necessity of reducing salaries
and fees, and the saving of two millions of
dollars on the tax levy of the present
yaar, for which it provides, can be
e/Tected without touching the salary list at
>.U. The reduction of the State tax, and
a saving on the amount of bonds redeemed,
will readily supply .the required amount,
leaving Jons Kellt free to serve
his personal or political ends by. re-
ducing the salaries of his political
opponents in order to increase those
of his political friends. As the board, that
is to sav Mr. Eeixt, is farther authorized
to reduce the number of officers, em-
ployes, &c., in any department whatever,
some faint idea may be formed of the
power which this bill gives him to intrench
himself as permanent dictator of the City
of Kew-Tork. From the heads of de-
partments downward, every member of
the ofScial corps of the City would, under
the operation of this act, be reduced to a
position of abject vassalage to Mr. Kellt.
Of course, no man having any self-respect
would hold or accept office nnder such oon-
ditioiB. That would enable Kelly to
place > his own ' tools in charge of the
departments, and we should have a
" one-man power" in the City more
perfect than Tweed ever dared to set up.
Tl«9re would be no responsibility anywhere,
save in the ignorant and anscrupolons per-
son who is himself the Board of Apportion -
inent, and there would be no power at all
adequate to hold him to aceonnt.
There need be no conjeetore aa to how
KXLLT ' wotild exercise the unchecked
authority with which a majority of the Be-
publicBns in the Assembly have agreed to
invest him. On. assuming his present'
office^ he exercised very much less sweep-
ing powers than those for the basest par-
tisan, ends. The provisional estimates for
last year were drawn np and agreed to before
CMatroUer &REEK went out of oⅇ they
w«re revised and finally determined after
Controller Kellt went in. The re-election
of EeeorBer Hackett was bitterly opposed
by KcLlkT, and though the Tammany candi-
date wate ignominiously beaten at the polls,
Kellt wasted his time to sati^. an old
personal grudge against the Baiiorder. In
revising the estimates for 1877 he eat down
the olerks of the Becorder's Court, as well
ma those of Judge ScrTBKBLiNi), leaving
oOjfiT Judges who had given him control of
thf ir patronage in fall poaaession of their
Wjry liberal pay-iyUa. Commissioner

On the other hand, the tev&ed esti-

pended on to do the bidding of Tanuqany

cal favorites, is a very unfit person to

whole power and patronage of the City Gh>v-
emment Bepublicans who consent to anoh

contemplated in the so-called Municipal
Salaries bill Sre either very ignorant or are

in the party who think they can trade
off the control of the affain of New-
York for the supposed certainty of electing
a Bepnblican Assembly and consequently
a United States Senator this Fall. AU of
which goes to show that the BepnbUcan
Party organization has been allowed to fall
into very bad hands, and that the man who
has the double, good.fortune of being a Car-
dinal's nephew and "boss" of Tammany

THE PBOGBESS OF THB "NATIONAL
PABTT."
Becent dispatches to The Tuzs from
Detroit state that in the elections held
in Michigan, the so-called National Party
showed much more strength than it was
supposed to have. Eveiy county where
a special effort had lieen made to set up
active organization gave a vote which
was a surprise to the regular i>oU-
ticians, and we suspect to the organi-
zers themselves. The Nationals made
gains in Bepublioan and Democratic
strongholds alike. They carried the county
in which Detroit is situated, outside of the
city, against the Democrats ; carried eleven
important towns usually Democratic ; car-
ried Barry County, usually Bepubliean by
500 majority, by 700 ; and in the City of
Jackson, where their State Convention was
held, they defeated a combination of both
Bepublicans and Democrats, led by the
strongest men of both parties. These are
by no means insignificant results, and the
gentlemen of means and supposed influence
who recently oreanized the " Honest Money
League of the North-west" obviously have
a large field before them, and have ,not be-
gun to labor in it a moment too soon.
Considering the success which has at-
tended the efforts of the Nationals in Mich-
igan, it is well worth while to glance back
at the principles they professed, and the
measures they proposed to themselves, at
their State Convention in February. This
convention preceded the more general one
at Toledo, on the 22d of February, and
sounded the note which determined
the character of the proceedings at
the latter assemblage. The immediate
purpose of the Michigan Nationals is to
effect a revolution in the financial policy of
the country. They are ardent believers in
irredeemable legal-tender paper money
issued by the Government in practically
unlimited quantities. They demand that
this money shall be made " adequate to the
employment of labor and the equitable dis-
tribution of its products," Congress legis-
lating, uot to fix the maximam, but to deter-
mine a "minimam per capita," and then to
keep it sufficient to the requirements of
business and to the happy ends which, as we
have indicated, they think it capable of at-
taining. They profess to be confident that if
only their system can be applied, there will
no longer be any " overgrown fortunes or
extremepoverty" in the land, but that gen-
eral ease, prosperity, and contentment will
preyaiL As natural incidents in their grand
scheme, they require the abolition of the
national banks, the imlimited. coinage and
legal tender of silver, the repeal of the Be-
sumption act, the payment of the' bonds in
paper, the taxation of bonds, and the re-
vival of the income tax.
It will be perceived that there is lees in-
definiteness in the means proposed by the
National Party than in the ends thev seek.
An organization which clearly holds the bal-
ance of power in a State like Michigan, and
which appears to wield a considerable in-
fluence in Ohio as well, judging by the
elections in that State this month, will not
only have a good deal of -weight
-with the old parties in the Congres-
sional campaign, but will stand a-
very fair chance to elect a number of
its imme^tn representatives to the House
the coming Fall. It is by no means an im- .
posnble thing that in the next House those
who ' are elected direefly by them, or who
wSlbe likely to listen to their demands,^
may determine the financial policy of that
body. And when we remember that at its.
next meeting the - Senate wiU, in all proba-
bilitr, be Democratic, and ^t, whether
><Demaoiatio or Bepnblioan, it needs but a
small addition to the inflation element
to render it practioally in aympathy with
the ideas advanced1>y the " Nationala," the
proapectis not an enaonra^ng one. Nor ia
it rendered wholly reassuring by any knowl-
edge which we now possess of the probable
eourse of the Executive. The present Ad-
ministration is possessed by a eonsnming
devotum to the popular will aa expressed

And, ^^ter ^, there iB'<TCTy little in the
propoaitiaur of the "Natiaiials" which has
not been more or leas diatinetty auatained
by the preaent Honae of Bepreaentativea.
That body has paaaed a h&l repealing the
Beanmpiiqn aet, haadeoluN»dtiia bonds pay
abla in ds^reeiated eoin, il^i ia likely to re-
ceive a report from the ooomittee having .
charge of the matter favoring the res-
toration of . tite income tax. This ia
a beginning from whieh 'it is not, a
great iray to the taiatlon of bonds,
the abolition of the national banks, the on-
limiie lissue.of legal tendoTs, and the " pay-
mei-t " of the bonds in pftper. The ooiitest
to whieh those who want honest money and
believe in the rights of property are invited,
is to be waged this Summer, and its
objective point is ' in the eleetiona
for the next ' . House. There shOiild
a prompt and vigorous organization in
Congressional distrttt The first,oV
ject should be to compel whichever party is
in the majority to nominate a pronounced
hard-^nonejrm^, and failing that, to elect
an independent honest-moiiey candidate, or
if even that is tmpossible; to elect the best
man who is proposed. If this process breaka
up party lines, and interferes with ordinary
partisan loyal^, it is nevertheless right and
necessary, for there can be no issue of more
importance presented than that which the
" Nationals " are now forcing on public at-
tention.
EVBOPeS DILEMMA.
A story ia told of a certain Western
farmer, who, being asked if his neighbors
were honest folk, answered pointedly :
"Wal, honest enough aa men go — but I
guess I take in all my atone-fences every
night" This modified confidence would
seem to be the ruling principle of European
polities at the present moment Germany
compliments every one, and trusts Ho one.
Austria, like a surly mastiff, eyes doubt-
fully the hand that proffers her Bosnia and
Herzegovinia, uncertain whether to swal-
low the gift or turn and rend the giver.
England, standing forth aa usual in defense
of an ally who does not wish to be defend-
ed, ia expressing her ardent desire for
peace by tons ofeannon-balla and ship-
loads of topedoes. Bnssia. bullying her
stanchest adherent while sending a Prince
of the blood-royal to dine with her worst
enemy, seema inclined to vary her pro-
gramme by converting her foes into friends,
and her friends into foes. Tnrkey has fled
to her Bussian assailant for refuge from her
BngUsh benefactor, unconsciously realizing
the story of the plundered New-Yorker,
who, seeing a policeman coming to the res-
cue with npliftisd club, shrieked to the de-
parting robber to come back and defend
him. In a word, the great powers of Eu-
rope, dreading and dreaded, with one hand
clasping that of a " friend," and the other
on the hilt of a half-drawn weapon, stand
forth in one great panorama of mutual dis-
trust, the motto of which appears to be :
"Let no -man owe yon anything, save to
hate one another."
But drapite this universal show of menace,
and the vast military preparations that ac-
company it, there is a palpable unwillingness
on the part of the contending powers to pre-
cipitate the crisis which all alike feel to be im-
minent The removal, indeed, of the check
impoBcUon the English Cabinet by Lord
Derby's moderation, has had its natural re-
sult in the emphatic challenge offered to Bns-
sia by his energetic successor ; but the ex-
pected oonsumfiiation is still delayed. Just
-'as the spectators are holding their breath
for the first note of -war, some slight con-
cession or pacific utterance escapes one or
other of the disputants, and the farce
begins anew. -Much of this is 'doubtless
owing to the secret influence of Germany ;
more, perhaps, to the instinctive feeling of
all eonoemed, that sueh. a war, eo com-
meneed, may -grow into a blaze such as Eu-
rope has not seen for generations. But al-
though the actual clash of arms may be de-
ferred, the preparatldns for it go forward
mor^ vigorously than ever. Servia is
gathering troops along the southern bank
of the Danube, and preparing to occupy
Widdin and Ada-Kaleh. . The Prince of
Montenegro, eager as «ver at the sU^test
prospect of a fight, has answered Buasia's
call to arms by increasing his disposable
force to 26,000 men, " armed," as the dis-
patch significantly ' adds, " with Martini
rifles captured from the Turks." Mean-
while, Bussia herself is straining every
nerve to replenish the chasms made in her
exchequer and her mnater-roll by the past
twelvemonth.' The four riamiaiiring military
divisions are being rapidly mobilized, and
troops ponred across the Bessarabian bor-
der into JassT as fast as they can be brought
up. A new bridge is being built over the
Pmth. Torpedoes to the number of 1,500
have been ordered ia Germany, and the
military contracts l«oken off by the con-
clusion of peace are being renewed. The
troops replaced by the Servian Militia are
moving to the south-east, forming a regular
chain from Adrianople to the shores Of the
Bosphorus. The Bussian -forces already, in
position before Gallipoli, Buyukderefa, and
Constantinople are estimated as high as
80,000 men, and can easily be increased to
100,000. On the other hand, the Turks at
M**^"'^ and Bnynkdereh are aeeumnlating
guns and ammnnition in the intrenched
campa formed at both points, while the
Bussians at San Stefano are keeping them
in conntenitnce by constructing large bar-
racks, and bringing, np stores and provi-
aiona. It is aaid that tiie Bosaian Govern-
ment a aecretly negotiating an enormous
loan, and that the scheme of a " volunteer
flotJUa" of Buaaian privateers has been
started in Moscow. . The British iron-clad
DevastaVon haa entered ths Golf of Ismid,
and it ia announced that the BeaihaBay
squadron -will ahorUy^ba reinforoed, ■ and
the Chiumel Fleet- kaiit itithin rt^h of

Puba; the irtMMhaat oppoamit af^&a Bnaao-
TnxkiA aBianoe, ean hardly be tfaoqght ae-
cidMtal; and the symptoms of yielding,
whieh. Biooinania is at length beginning to
nanifed^ ue eertainly not caused by any
fear of the few thousand men who look
idly acroffl the Danube at the eariSiworka of
(HnrgevoV ft is recorded that Admiral De
BoTTEB, seeing a pirate bearing down upon
his-own unarmed vessel, smeared the deck
so thickly with butter that the first buc-
eaneer who leaped wi "board, flew like a
socket acrosa the slippery planking, and out
through the opposite port into the sea,
while his comrades, thinking the vessel be-
witched, went back again faster 'than they
oame. This is no inapt emblem of Bussia'a
traditional policy. Those who assail her,
ffhd the slipperv ground of diplomaey more
perUons than the battle-field, and are baffled
more frequently -with oil than -with iron.
Ai for Ilngland, her present -Dosiidon is
that of a dilatory lawyer, who, being eum-
inoned to draw up a client's will, arrives
just in time to attend hie funeral. The un-
easy consciousness of this tact may account
for her present vehemence, as an effort to
.atone by double zeal for the tardiness of its
manifestation; but Turkey li^ evidently
lost all faith in the sincerity of her former
ehampion, and that of Anstria is plainly but
lukewarm at the best Indeed, tiiere ean be
little doubt that Austria's own wish
would be to let England and Busaia come to
blows, and then extort from the latter the
highest possible price for her- own neutral-
ity. Bnt«vea in this desire her statesmen
are not nnanimons, for her normal condi-
tion is that of a rickety cask, the - staves
of which fiy asunder at every shock that
loosens the confining circle. The Bussian
proposal to choose as umpire the Emperor
of Germany, is merely the open expresnon
of a scheme that has been hinted at more
than once during the past month; but
whether it will be approved by the powers
who regard Germany as Bussia's sworn ally,
remains, to be seen. In the meantime,
much depends upon the question whether
the feeling of the Boomanian people is also
that of the Bonmanian Government, or
whether Bussia is right id counting upon
the covert support of the latter ; and much,
likewise, upon England's answer to the sug-
gestion which has just emanated from St.
Petersburg, that she should supplement her
objections to the Bussian orogramme by
stating plainly what arrangement she her-
self proposes to offer in its stead.
THE GENESIS OF CHUBCH DEBTS.
It is certainly ^a very remarkable feature
of one of the worst financial years this City
hasever known that it should have been
especially chosen for paying off church
debts. Whea people were at their poorest
they have done most to discbarge their obli-
gations in building places of worship. The
event certainly has an honest and serious
appearance. How much mere sympathy
and fashion have to do with it we wotdd not
too closely inquire. It is a healthy fashion,
if it be one, and a sound feeling. Still, the
self-denial and the devotion of the effort
should not make us insensible to the un-
reason and the love of show in
the original course of the churches
which brought on the debt. Had
an enthusiastic assembly of gpod men
been so led away in their eagerness to
do good, for instance, among the poor and
unfortunate, that their benevolent enter-
prises had at last entangled them in debt,
we might have Censured but we could not
have condemned ; and a united effort to
throw off the debt would have seemed rea-
sonable and wise. But the true history of
these church debts is^ quite different. A
church has a modest and sensible building,
perhaps not in the lower part of the City, but
at a medium distance between the wealthy
and poor quarters. Not being incumbered
with a heavy rent or interest-money there
are means in the church for the many be-
nevolent and missionary enterprises m the
poorest quarters, for which such an
association ought to be formed. To
a certain degree - the' church repre-
seifts the true spirit of its Founder ; it
endeavors to preach the Gospel to the poor,
to cure the sick, to relieve the destitute, to
instruct the young, and lessen in all ways
the terrible social evils which afflict a large.
City. Being i> an unfashionable and quiet
quarter, ite deeds of mercy make little noise,
and it escapes that rock of danger to a reli-
gious body, of too much iHat and publicity.
At length the church secures the services
of some eloquent or persuasive clergyman
who qteedily attracts crowds of. hettrers.
For a time he leads the many moral and be-
nevolent enterprises of the body, and, as a
powerful man in a somewhat humble pulpit,
he has a profound influence on both rich
and poor. A certain apostolic character
surrounds him, as of one who throws away
worldly advantagesfor the sake of doing good.
The little church, too, redeems the Prot-
estant body from its worst defect of being
unadapted to the poorer classes. All
classes are found assembling in it, and its
branches reach out wherever there _aro' the
needy and ignorant In an evil day the
growing popularity of the preacher, and, the'
removal of the richer members to up-town
neighborhoods, suggest the idea of a new
and larger building .up town. -Gradually
both elergyman and -members are won o-ver -
to it A splendid building is put up at a
cost of several hundred thousand dollars,
the prices of pews are raised to a high point ; ',
heavy expenses and heavy debts are in-
curred, and tHe new church beg^ its ca-
reer, eitherjmder a load of debt or with its
leading members cramped for means
through their liberal eontributions toward
the building. It is discovered that
" the footsteps of the poor and needy "
do not wear the rich threshold of the new
atmetore. Even the mechanics aiid classes
of moderate ' means ean scarcely afford a
seat in it. It is a "religions elnb," or
loxntions house of worship for the rich, and'
fortunate. The many branch effort^ of mis- -
aion and eharity are cut down, as there
are not means eoffieient in the congregation
£w both expenditnTM.

L EGBXXS OF MABB1A6E
The m inner in which marriage is regard-
ed by ot tier than the contracting parties, de-
pends rei y mluch on the numl>er of times that
it has be< n perpetrated. Although nothing is
more ent relyj and exclusively one's own affair
tlian maj riade, it is osnally the thing about
which . on 3's acquaintances and neighbors busy
themselv is i lost In fact, no man or woman,
whatever his >r her reputation for sound judg-
ment an! di wretlon, is supposed tol>e quite
eajiable o \ d< termining who he or she ought to
wed. 1 liis Important question, mainly
CQncemiig themselves alone, should be
left, aeording to public opinion, to a
self-elect( d aanhedrini of promlacnons coou-
cilors, wl 0, however foolish or reckless they
may have been respecting their own marriage,
are presu ned to be particularly sagacious as to
the marr age of others. Indeed, the circum-
stance of their own matrimonial failure is
thought to empower, if not to authorize, them
to direct J their friends in the right course.
They have learned wisdom by experience; they
ean teli t tietrj oaaociates just what to accept,
and, equa ily Important, just what to avoid.
Having i iffeied disastrous defeat they are
enabled 1 1 wiii any number of vicarious victo-
ries.
First TOi Triages, when there is no strong ob-
jection to (hem, are apt to be looked on -with-
out any t peei^ prejudice, and the announce-
ment ot tt eir early occurrence ia commonly a
welcome t Lt of intelligence. Oar relatives, our
friends, oi t enemies, particularly our enemies,
accept ou ' approaching doom -with compla-
cency, if I ot with undisguised approvaL They
may have th^y ate very likely to have, their
criticisms, their sarcasms, and their jests ; nev-
ertheless, hey are prone t3 be resigned to our
happiness or kinhappiness, as the result may
prove. On th^ whole, we get off easy. Barring
a vast amount of miseeilaneous, unsought, and
often impe -tinent advice, we are eraciously per^
mitted to obey our proper indinatiozis with
very little lindranee.
Second narriages ore different They en-
counter more friction, more Opposition,
more misi nd^rstanding than the first; tl^e
general in predion seeming to be that one
connubial ^perience disqnalifleS the majori-
ty of persons for its repetition. A num-
ber ot people who appear to tmnk a first
marriage n fttural and commendable, consider
a second iianiage unnatural and, in some
sort, raprel :eni ible. They say that neither
man nor W( ma i has a right to connubial iter-
ation, though \ihy he or she shotUd uot have it
they ne-vezj ma/ke quite clear. . The cause of
their bias is really sentimental. They have
extremely romantic notions, wholly un-
warranted by experience, reason, or knowl-
edge of t.umin nature, and one of
their no ion i is that well-regulated
persons Iot i o ily once, and that any assump-
tion of anot lier love is hollow, the passion coun-
terfeit, the >bje Bt uaworthy. They are ferocious
xnonogamia a, a ad, being such, have' no sympa-
thy with wl low 9 or widowers. When they are
told that th( I h< art is never so likely to form a
new attach! lenl as when it is suffering from the
memory of ^n old one, thev scout the sentiment,
cynicism, and pronounce it a alial-
fot- disloyalty.- They will not be
the ways of Nature ; they insist
ntimental theories - shall be an-
swered, aU ait theae are baseless and utterly
fantastic.
And whei pel sons enter, for any reason, upon
a third mati ima aiol venture, they are, in a cer;
tain sense, < utli wed. It is ordinarily held that
there conno '< be any justification for such ex-
cess of conj iga] enterprises, and that the exe-
cution ot iV boi-ders upon guilt. Even those
who have b< en thrice wedded are by no means
certain to Jx patient or tolerant of third mar-
riages in ex emkl instances. There were pecu-
liar eirenms anoes in their case — of coarse there'
were — whlcl i rendered their tertiary commis-
sion of wee lock entirely excusable ; and such
a comblnat oii of dreumstances could hard-
ly have i appened again. It may pos-
sibly; but ti|ev have never heard of
it, and .must beg leave to doubt it.
People whi ' adivoeate second marriages -with
energy and fervor rarely, admit the propriety of
third morri igesi Three times, they asseverate,
is just onei imel too often. They would define
man as an animal who inclines to matrimony, and
may be twide a husband. Brute Is a creature
opposed to he established order of things, that
has the hai dih<|od and effrontery to be thrice
.married, ' 'he most unfortunate thing, hdw-
ever, for th s thriee married is the endless ridi-
cule to Willi h it exposes them. They may en-
dure any di gree of misrepresentation, slander,
or.objnrgat on, but laughter overwhelms them,
and disturb \ thelstontest equanimity. No man or '
woman, w latever virtue . or positioa they
may have -ea)i afford to . be ridiculous,
and ridic; Ions they are certain to be isf ter
a triple allianc 3. Any one will speak soberly
of a man who has hod two wives, and refer
with dignity an 1 decorum to the first mr the sec-
ond, as oc^lon may reqtdre. But let him take

Salt t>ake JpHii dplas, the disciple of Bbiqh^ji

is spoken of as one of his -wives, and
the question is asked whether she is the

one e< ti>e pbmses a|q;>Ued to him. and all sorts
ot jokes, old spd new, ne fastenart open aim.
If he be seen naying any attention to a lady, he
is aeenaed of orraaging for another saorriage in
the event; of accident. It is asserted titat he
keeps a relay of possible Wives on hand, always

Perhaps men show their hi^est appreciation

by obeying its injnnetlons repeatedly; but the

FOBMSB SIEGES OF COSSTANTINO-
\PLS:
Only twice before the present time has Con-
stantinople been successfully besieged ; and
since its oeeapation by the Turks in 1453, it
has preserved till now the distinction, unique
among the capitals of Continental Europe, of
having never been occupied by an enemy. In-
deed, the fiercest and most persistent attacks
made upon it occurred while It was still the
Christian metrooolis of the Greek Empire,
although^ siagnlarly enough, its earliest peril
arose from the movements of the some for-
midable enemy tiiot finally ovrathiew it
Toward, the middle of the sixth century, the
irruption of the. Turks into Western Asia dis-
lodged the A-vars, and' precipitated them upon
the north-eastern frontier of the Empire,
through which they swept irresistibly till actu-
ally withiii sight of Constantinople, when ths
valor of Belisabius put them to flight. In
610, the Persians, under Chosboes invaded
■Anatolia, and absolutely occupied Sentorifor
sevwol days; but they were so completely de-
feated by the Emperor Hebacucs that the at-
tempt was never renewed.
In 678, aHohammedan Army appeared before
Constantinople for the first time, under the
Emir MoeLKifAH, brother of the Arab Caliph
MoAViAR. But he was defeaW and slain with
the flower of his Army ; and the renewal of the
attack in 716 cost t^e assailants 50,000 men
and their entire fleet which was consumed by
the fatal "Greek fire," at that time the most
formidable of military wei^ions. The first at-
tempts of Bu^sta, at the dose of the ninth cen-
tury, had better fortune; and the shield of
-Oleq, Prince of Kief, hung for many years
above the great gate of the capital, in token of
his victory over the Emperor.
The conversion of Bussia to Christianity in
988. and the subjugation of the Balgarians
by Basu. IL, left Constantinople to the enjoy-
ment of a iwoee which was broken only by oc-
casional excesses on the part of the passing Cm-
saders ; but in 1293 the French and Venetians
stormed and pillaged the city under the leader-
ship ot their "blind Captain," Hxnby Dan-
DOLO, then in his nmetieth year. They were
exnelled in their turn by the Greeks two years
later ; but a tar more formidable peril now be-
gan to menace the decaying Empire. The Ot-
toman Turks, under their founder, Otrmak.
and his son ObohaA iiad already established
themselves on the Asiatic shoro of the Bos-
phorus, when Caktacttzebe brought them into
Europe in 1326 as his allies against Johk
Paleolooits. From that moment the fate of
the Blmpire was sealed. The conquest of Bul-
garia by Amurath. that of Boumella by his son
Bajazet, the hitter's deei«ve overthrow of the
Emperor SioisvusD at Nikopolis in 1396,
and the subsequent blockade of Constan-
tinople, followed in unbroken succession.
Bajazbt's defeat and capture at Angora by
TiMOTiB, in 1402, gave the Byzantine power a
precarious respite of half a century; but in
1453 MoHtmfKT> IL'a oowerf nl cani^on and his
ingenious stratagem of drawing his -vessels
overland to a point -witliin the defenses of the
Golden Horn, made the Turks undisputed mas-
ters of Constantinople. Tradition relates that
when the invaders burst into the Church of St.
Sophia the ofBdating priest was miraenlonsly
preserved by the opening of the wall to receive
him, and that when the Christians shall regain
the city, the wall will reopen, and the priest re-
turn to finish his mass.
. Since tliat time the only two appearances of
an enemy before Constantinople have been due.
singularly enough, to her firmest champion in
after years — Great Britain. In 1770 an Eng-
lish officer in the service of Cathakini IL , after
vainly urging his Admiral to make a dash upon
Constantinople, ran past the batteries with one
vessel, and having anchored before the Saltan's
palace and flrod a salute of defiance, retired un-
scathed. In,l806 the anti-British intrigues of
Napoleon's envoy, CoL SEBASTiANi,4>rought
Admiral Ducewosth to Constantinople with
nine men-of-war, but the wily Ambassador de-
luded him with a show of anbmisslon till the
.city -was so strongly fortified as to be unassail-
able, and the squadron was foreed to retreat
with considerable loss. The defense of Acre
by Sir StDNET Sioth in l798, and ths cheek
given by the intervention of France and Eng-
land to iBBAHiu Pasha's victorious advance
through Asia Minor in 1839, saved Constanti-
nople from an attack which would probably
have been suceeasinl : but her hour has eome
at lost and she sees, for the first time during
four centuries, her defenses in the hands of a
hostile army.

They would have attracted many who, others
wise, win take a too languid Intereet in the
present show ; they would also assist la any
attempt to get a eomprefaensive view of Sm
state of the painter's art among Americans.
It would be a mistake for the Impression to
remain current that the recent llttie ravival in
American art is something new or unheard of.
Injess evident ways the contest batween tite
older men and the ^Misttea of new artlstie light
bos always been going on; heretofote die in-
truders have not been of sufficient noaber or
weight to moke much of a stir ; moreover, they
have never before- found the older established
painters intrenched so firmly in their hoine
campb Hence has come an additional vigor of
attack and a mora than usually dogged although
silent defense. But while it is evident enough
that the old r^me waa post cure, and slowly
perishing -with inanition from want of new
blood, it doea not necessarily follow that any
change should be hailed with acclamations, and
that a panel of enthusiastie young stu-
dents in Uunieh, Paris, and Veoiee, to-
gether -with their theoretical eonfreree in
the United states, should be accepted
-without discrimination in place of artists
with whose work we are dissatisfied. We are
sure of the faults and stire of the virtues of
such painters as Huntington, Bierstodt, Inaess,
Eastman Johnson, Page, the two Beards,
Church, Homer. Bpt are we to receive on
troat, in spile of striking ezcellenoea at first
view, the Ja^hing pictures of new comers like
Duveneck, Chase, Shirlaw, Alden Weir, and
such younger fry I They most prove their
titles by holding permanently their position as
strong and ingenious artists before they csn be
accepted as full-fledged paintera If, ia the
qieanwhile, ithey starve more or less, tt wiQ
only be what greater men in their profession
have done before them.
Nor do the galleries of the Academy, in apite
of the 716 frames there disposed to view, afford
a very good oversight of the work of tiie older
men. Of course, it could not be expected that ex-
treme exomplee of the slap-dash style of painting
would pass the muster of the Hanging Commit-
tee, or whatever other secret tribunal under-
took for this year the duties of that odious and
now vaniahed committee. There ore no can-
vases here at all like those of Carrier in the ex-
hibition of American Artists. But the old stand-
bys are either feebly or not at all represented.
Where is Mr. Bierstadt, with his square miles of
California landso^w I Page, with his eaiefnlly
though txiut portraits 1 Church, with his recipes
for condensing geographical areas and evolviiag
" atmosphere " f Perhaps the Ptais Exhibition
has drawn the fire that would otherwise have
rattied through the galleries of the Academy.
Their abeence renders still less evident the dis-
tance between the old and the new; taken
in connection with the similar absence ot any
very violect specimens ot the pron^ssionists
this brings the exhibition down to much more
of a dead level than is pleasant to contemplate
or profitable to discuss. Kevertheleaa, di^
tinctiona are there for Hiose who care to ex-
amine, and since it is the part of a critic to ana-
lyze, as far as in liim is. the exeellenees, de-
fects, and relative standing ot exhiUtoi*, we
may aa well come to some understanding about
the position of the most noticeable, or most
typi<»I. artists, before proceeding to teke up 111*
other pictures in detail.
Daniel Huntington is the President of the
Academy, and may, therefore, be given the post
of honor. He shows four pictures, all of them
portraits, of which the South Room contains
two and the Xorth and West Booms one eodi.
His men are better than his women. That of
Bishop Potter, in the North Boom, has unusual
firmness; that of a Prestdent of an Insu-
rance Company has less.. The dignity of the
Bishop haa some reality in it ; that of the In-
surance President is more pompous than aay-
tliing else. The third portrait is inidgnifleant,
and the fourth — that called in the eatalogae
"AToung Lady "—is feeble in the extreme.

On the mominir of Thursday, the 21st of
March, Patrick O'Connor, a boardlng-hooae rnnner,
indncad annmber of lallon to leave the ship D. B.
Baton, then Ijing at Hobolun. The mates of
ihe Tsssel, • Henry timlth and Christopher
laliihamtei; ordered the man to re.
^tam. Tha si^ors, acting under the adTice
of tbs boardinc.honse rnnner, refused to obey the
Older, Tha olBceis of the ship then fired on O'Con-
nor, woandlng him seriously. Some days afterward
tha D. B. Eaton was taken oyer to Prentice's
•tores, in Brooklyn. Last cTening s man rep.
rassntint himself as a Jersey Police officer,
boarded tha ship and presented a warrant
tor lb* arrest of Henry Smith. The latter being in-
formed br theoiBeertbat O'Connor was dead, submit-
ted quletlr to the arrest. Some time after the oScer
had departed with his prisoner Mr. Leiehmaster
went to Hoboken to ascertain what ha
could do for bis friend. He there learned
that no warrant had been Issued for Smith's arrest,
and that O'Connor was not dead. He returned at
once to Brooklni and reported the facts to the Police
of the Krst Precinct. A description of the man
who arrested Smith was tnmlshed, and a general
alarm sent oat from the Central Office. It Is feared
that tha gang to which O'Connor belonged intend
aariooa b»m to Smitb, and prepned the bogus war-
taot in order to get him into their power.
A nporter of THK Tnxis saw Patrick O'Connor at
1 o'clock this mominjc in Ois bed in a room on the
flrst floor of No. 19 Peail-atTeet. His friends said he
was recoTsrtng slowly from wounds in his back

The ChieaKo Tribunt of the 4th inst has the
following in relation to the statement that certain
allaaed agenta of the British QoTemment were
aetiTely engaged in that city in the porchaae of
AmarleaB honea for the English earalry serrice :
"Thetketsare few and simple. Nearly dz weeks
Igo Mr. Small, aa American gentleman now domiciled
hi Glasgow, Scotland, and Managing Director of the
oQaagow Street Tramway Company, arrived in Cbica.
lo, in company with Mr. H. C. East, of London, Bne-
wad. who a connected with tbe largest horse- jobbing
trm in that city. Ihelr mission was to buy hones,
aot for serrice in the British or tbe Egyptian earal-
ry, bat for tbe more peaceful purpoaea of banling
arriages and streetcars. Mr. Small xequirea light.
setiTe horses for his work, bat cannot afford to pay
fancy pricea for blooded stock. Mr. East, on the
other hand, is ready to pay heavy figures, provided he
ean get the class of anunals demanded by bis cos-
tomsrs. It therefore became an object of mutual
advaatace for the geatleBien to work together, for
wimt might not suit ooe at all might prove to be ex*
aetly what waa required by the other. Messrs.
Small and East are doluff in this country what they
have done in the great markets of Ireland and
Wales for sereral years psst. A likely lot of homes
being fooa^ they pass upon them together. Mr.
East takaa tha carriage horses ; Iklr. Small those
- saitable for stieet car wortc They have already
boncht alarxa number in this vicinity, and will ship
them at thsir eonvenienci. If prices suit, and tbe
quality proves good, they will bay more, but ther
are aot bunting for the kind of horse which snuffs
the battle from a£ar, and on which the British bus-
tar, laaeaz. sad dragoon regiments are mounted."

purity of tone, and in the firat daet with Zeonors,
in tbe scene in which he defies tile King,

'TESTEBDAY'S PHUiHABMONIC 00NC2BT
Tbe sixth and last Philhannonie concert of
tbe present season took place at tbe Academy of
Music, last evening. Its programme waa of sub*
afantlal interest, while it inelnded nothing new. Ita
most acceptable dement w**, in onr judgment,
M. Babinstein's " Ocean " tympbony. TUi admir-
able work, although not rendered, at some points,
witb the fandfnlnesa and/o«^« which cbaracterlzed
a performance of tbe composition under tbe com-
poser's b&ton, flve or six years ago, was vary finely
played by Mr. Thomas' large and well-drlUed orches-
tra. Tha " Ocean " symphony may not be
considered by ultra- Wagneritea, for example, as
tbe product of 3£r. Bublnstela's highest powers, but
for the present generation, at all events, it will out-
weigh all his later works. It is delightfully clear and
suggestive, richly sonorous without being noity, and
replete "with poetic ideas and delicate fancies. ^ Some
exception may be taken to ita plan, which is hardly
symmetrical, but the abundance and baxoty of
the material make amends for a possible want of
proportion of the structure In which it is used. Of
tbe sixenovements, ihe second — s lovely adagio — and
tbe fifth — tbe well-remembered and strikingly Beetbo.
venish acherzo— etill impress us as the most f asdna-
ting, though It is not easy t o disiagatd tbslsst dlviaion
of the symphony, with its fine chorale and vigorous
peroration. As noted above the work waa' capitally
interpreted, tbe half -hidden effect* of tbe sCors, in
form, for instance o! occasiooal bits oL restless ac-
companlment recalling the significance of the title by
a reminder of the eternal disquiet of the deep, being
brought out in the tiappiest manner. The con-
cert began witb Beethoven's music to "Egmon^"^
tbe broad elegance and simple dramaiie force of
which appear almost inlmttshle, and concluded with
the funeral march inddental to tbe death of 8i»gfri»d^
in "Gdtterdammerung," and the finale totbasame
opera, Mme. Pappenlieim singing tbe two brief
solos in the score to "Egmont," and Brum-
hSdt't lament in the iaxtd work of tbe
trilogy. Tbe mardi, which was iplendldlyreadered
by Mr. Thomas' men, is not without a fine slgni-
ficauce of its own, independent of tbe rare eloquence
it assumes to a listener acquainted witb its principal
themes. The vocal part uf the finale, how-
.aver, is tedions and eomparstively meaningjess
wiien ' severed from . the ^ context and redted
without -tbe scenic' accessories which, in Bayrenth,
went further toward making " GStterdimmerung"
efPecfive than they did anyottier opera of the tei^a
Mfiie. Pappenheim saag with earuestnsas and correct-
aeas, but with apparent effort. Tbs atidUnc* was nn.

lhofa*-hck in July. 1877; she' had been desning
theretrlgetator, and tiie matt bnfiq^in a btgeake
of.lc^ and Uien went out; Mr. Boes caBM In
and .said somstfalag about the man, and piubed
faarsfalnit tbe raftlgatator, and dapped her face :
t£* snnt.ijlto the room occupied by her son and was
taH^' him when the latter, nplled: "For God's
faJiSi mainpia, what nowt" then ihe started to go up
'itolrs irhsn Mr. Boss struck her, and seissd her by
titf hair sod pnllsd her back: then her son came out,
andsaldi "Father, no man but a coward will strike
a woman, and Til. protect mother, anyhow;" then
Mr. -Boas pulled off bis coat as if to fight, and she
st«>li«^ in between them and stopped further trouble ;
*■• aaornlng; flve years ago, be came into tbe kitchen
i^Ba aba was mixing bread and assumed a threat-
Blag attitude; thewsa afraid, and told him not to
strike her, but he did strike he In the face ; on. one
Oration ha held a tea-pot over her head as If to
scud her; when he passed her in tbe house he
wondd posh her against the doors, and be was always
very angry ; be sdd ai one time, striking blows on
the table ' in tbe presence - ot beraelf and her
eon, "1^ saeriflee everything, mr.coildren and
my money,' if I can get rid of that ."
he i^dd provide tor tbe bouse aa he felt indined ;
hoc d^ goods bUl at 'Van Eleeck't waa between
9<M>0 and 9500 per year, and he tbonght it very
large; the gooda were for herself and the children,
ud the mn't think it a large bill; it there
-waa any control ot the domestics in tbe
Iftoie be bad it| he often told the ser-
vaufii in her presence not to mind what that old
fool said — ^meaning bar; he ordered butchers and
grocers not to give her anything tmless be sent a
.written order, and she couldn't get anything without
such sn order ; when her thud child. Anna, waa
Iwrn, and during her illneas, she did not have ordi-
nary comforts, nbt even a fire in ber room ; tor
tbe last 12 yean they bad sddom eaten at the lame
table; when his mother waa there be said to ber,
" It yon s» going to eat I shan't eat."
Mr. Parsons cross-examined the witness. She
knew ot aothing that had caused her husbsud's ha-
tred j be told her she was no wife, that she made
him nnbappy In everything ; he said she set the chil-
dren and giris in tbe bouse agkinst him, and thatshe
had too much to do with tbe bired men, and he would
never aUow them to do anything about the bouse ;
on mon than one oecadoo. when Mr. Boas* mbther
was then for dinner, Mr. Ross would not order
msiit, and Mr. Ross' mother was angry at her for It ;
she had been refused groceries at the store of Mr.
yedder in an indirect way ; he said to her,
" I want to give you groceries, hut I don't
want Mr. BotS to ' come here and abuse me ;"
shs said abe was very meek ; more so f ormerlv than
now ; she had called Mr. Boss " big devil " and
"'GrowlarNo. .1," but be always commenced tbe
quami first,' and she only wished she had had
atrengtb to have done worse : in the scene where
• they had an encounter in the ball, she seized a cane
and said; " If I bad the power I would strike 70a to
tbe earth ;" then he took hold of her hair ;
shortly after their marriage an old beau called
upoB her, and Mr- Boss was angry at that ; she
never gave him any cause to be jealotu ; when rid-
lag in the cars she did not try to attract the atten-
tion of men ; she add be was enoucb, and ehe didn't
want any more, [Jangbter ;1 Mr. Itoss was jealous of
phyalelans who attended her ; she charged him with
mtimscy with other womon, out said the didn't can
anythfaig about It.
Bedlreet — My husband never allowed me any "pin
money;" aometimea be wonldgive me 93 or ^ after
a gireat ded of perauadon ; Judge Ndson had endeav.
ant to-settle all dUBeulties between us at Mr. Boss'
anggmlon ; be said In could part -with me eadlyif
It waaa't for money ; we md not occupy the same
room for 12 yean.
Wnham Boas, Jr., son of tbe contestants, was next
. sworn. He. testifled : I am 18 years of aice ; have
lived at borne one year in the last nine, but have been
tbere off and on ; have seen acts of violence by father
toward mother quite frequently; the firat -was 10
yean ago; father struck mother with bis hand
ana knocked her In tbe duir; soon after he
was whippbig me with a black riding-whip,
and abe interfered sad he struck her;
have often teen bim shove and push aer ; saw him
shake mother by tbe hair in the ball ; 'I was In the
parior playing upon the piano, and mother came tn
with a spot on her face, and she went into tbe hall,
and then I beard ber cry ; father stood on the first
stsp of tbe Btiln and mother stood on the floor, and
he Bad his bands in her hair, shaking her; I told
him 1 wouldn't see mother struck, and then he
waa going to strike me ; 1 heard bim call her a pros-
titute, tint, sow. dead beat, sacker, with a »tring of
lucken ; then wen other names, but I doa't recall
them ; be called ber those numes in tbe presence of
tfaetervantaandehtldnn and some in Miss Qerge't
pretence ; it occurred quite frequently ; they were
need in an ugly mannor ; father thinks he ought to
Kt 920,000 for tbe place where he lives ; mother
a oMn living without father dnce November last ;
father baa an Ice-honse, and be says that in a good
year he ought to receive 94. 000 from it.

dicate his prbltableablUtr to pay and his wife's neMssl.
ties Where the allegatlonB of the cause of action are rei^
Bonahly well snMuned. That can be gathered In this
doe from the fkots that the husband has until recently

Charles M. Connolly applied to Judge Potter,
in the Supreme Cotirt, a teW daya ago, to have a r*.
sals ot some property ot his which had been sold un-
der fonclosun ot a 940,000 mortgage held by the
Mutual Life •Insurance Company. In his petiHott
Mr. Connolly asserts that the property mortgaged
and sold eonsistsot a handsome country residence,
with spaelon* grounds, at Port Wstbineton, for
which be was offered 9150.000 four years ago, and
which at a fair public sale^would, at the
present time. bring 950,000. Th* insu-
rance company sold the property at ane-
tir .'for 920.000, Mr. Connolly not appearing
in flie action, for the reason that he had no defense
to interpoaa. He says be had no notice ot the sale.
A dsAeian^ ot 920,000 baa resulted In consequence
of ^* small price tor which the pronely was sold.
apd ihe peHtloner is liable to hav« judgment entered
againat mm tor the amount. The auctioneer who
made tbe sale told blm then was no one to bid at
the tlAe. Mr. Connolly asserts that the notice of
sale appeared only in tbe BtgittT, "which is not
read by and does not come under the observation ot
bnidhesS men generally." Judge Potter ycsterdsy
deaiad tha application unless Mr. Oonnolly within
10 d^a^ys 9124 25 costs and $30 expenses, and
gives aecunty to pay any deficiency between tha
aasonnt td b* nalind on the resale and tbe 920,000
tor which the property was sold, and will not re-
move out of the jurisdiction any oF his property
whiah is liable to levy tor the deficiency at the sale.

Tba moveraanta chronicled bf onr author
gu7 be briefly sttmmarlied aa foUowa: The
BaasUuu,%rafaInz the border near Alazandro-
pol, (April 33,) advanced upon Eneronm in
three eolosuu. The left, onder Sen. Tergnkas-
■off, a native Armenian, captured Bayaiid on
the 26th. and his coontrTnian Loria-Selikoff
innatad Kara vith the centre. MeanwIiUe
Sen. KomaroS, en the right, stormed Ardahan
piay 17) and adTaneed by Fennek npon
OIti, which he oecnpled BIar28. On the ap-
proach of the Tnrks, however, Komaroff, find-
ing himiMlf too weak to hold his ground nn-
mpnorted. fell back npon the Ardahan. On
the left the Bossians were f cr a time moeesf nl.
Tergnkasaoff oecnpled Zaidikaa on tha 9th of
Jane, and defeated the Tnrka with tevere loss
at T^^ on the 16th, but was forced to re-
treat by the threatening appearance In his rear
of a Turkish colnmn from Tan. In tha mean-
time Iioris-HelikoS, leaving a snfieient force
to press the siege of Kara, moved down the
Erzeronm hlghrxiad with his mam body and
assaulted, on the 25th of Jane, Mokhtar
Pasha's position on the plaiaaa of Zewln
The attack, though gallantly pressed, was
made, with almost inconceivable folly,
on the most predpitons and inaccessible side of
the plateau, and the natnralresolt was a total
and sanguinary defeat, the. Bossians losing, on
the very lowest estimate, nearly 3,000 men.
rUa orerthraw waa the Plevna of the cam-
paign. The beaten army fell back in disorder ;
Bayaadd was retaken, all but the citadel, by the
Turkish troops from Van ; and Hokhtar, fol-
lowing np his success, pressed back the Bus-
sians toward the frontier, and ndsed
the siege of Kars on the 9th
July- The gallant Tergokassolf, who, emnlat-
hu; BavelocK's exploit at Lncknow, broke the
leaguer of Bayaztd and brought off the garri-
son of the citadel, was driven back over the
border; two battles near Ears (Aug. 18 and
25) ended unfavorably for the Bnsslans, and
when the month closed the sole trophy of con-
i^uest remaining to the latter was the little
' fortress of ArdsTian. The success of the Tnrks
warned already assored, when the arrival of
itroDg reinforcements emboldened tU Busalan
leaders to raaasume the offensive. The first at-
tempt/Oct. 2) was a failore, but the second,
(Oct. 15,) supported by a tnming movement
for wliieh Hokhtar's overeonfidenee offered
disattroos facilities, inflicted npon the
. triuniphant Osmanli a crashing defeat.
From that moment the star ot Turkey declined
as rapidly as it had risen. The retreat npon
Erzeronm, the surrender of Kars, Mnkhtar's
defeat on the Pevi-Boyun Heights, the invast-
meDt of- the Armenian capital, followed in
.rapid saecessian, and when the coming of Win-
ter put a period to active operations, tha Bns-
sian eaose had trinmphed as completely in Asl a
ts is Europe.
, Our anthor evidently thinks little of the al-
leged infinence of the Daghestan insurrection in
'»uslng the eon^>sa of the Russian Summer
campaign, justly attribatlDg the latter to the
atter demoralisation produced by the disaster at
' Zewin — a verdict amply bom out by tha exaetiy
similar results that followed the defeat of
Plevna, where no such excuse could be pleaded.
. While extolling Tergokassoff as the only Bnsslan
■ General "who showed real military skill, he stig-
matiaes in the strongest terms the glaring inea-
paelty of Loris-Melikoff and his other col-
(eagnas ; nor is he more complimentary to their
opponents, with the exception of the gallant
Hungarian refugee, Faizi Pasha. "I know
not^"lie says, "to which nation to assign
'the palm of military incapacity;" and this
bitter critieism is fully sustained by the in-
' stances wliich he proceeds to give. On the one
■ hand, we find the Bussians advancing to their
mostaarious task with utterly inadequate forces,
. ind daliberalely assaulting a strong position, of
which they ikassessed an excellent map, at a
, point where it was absolutely unscalable ; on
ihe other, we have the Turkish genadiers going
Into a desperate battle with 10 rounds of ball-
cartridge per man, the ammunition train being,
• fa usual, miles in the rear; while In another
part of the work we read that " on the 3d of
May, 86 of the gnns sent from Constantinople
to arm Erzeronm were still lying on the beach,
Jnst aa they were disembarked. On the 23d,
these pieces, thanks to the untiring energy of
that indefatigable officer, Lient.-Qen. Djameel
Pasfaa, had reached Baiboert, 66 miles from
< this; and tontey, 2S days after— thanks to the
; apathy, listleasnoes, and criminal neglect of the
tSzsatoum ofllelals— they are still lying at
Buboort, and the earthworks on the Deiri-
Boynn are still unarmed." In a word, the
whole narxativa reads like an expansion of the
pithy axiom that " war is a series of mistakes,
and he wins who makes the fewest." ^
The writer credits Mnkhtar Pasha UnueU
grith more energy, as well as humanity, than
popular belief has ascribed to him. laying the
blame of the Turkish disaster chiefly upon in-
. lutBeiant snppUea and the apathy of Ismail
Pasha, the Koordlsh Oovemor-Qaneral of Ene-
ronm. The whole work does fall jnstlee to Q>e
patient and unflinching devotion of the Otto-
man soldiery, of which many touching Instances
ara recorded; but nothing can be morefiaroaly
emi^atic than our author's denundationsof the
snieidal neglect and mismanagement of the
TttiUah Administration. In faot^ a better
oorreetive to the easy optimism of CoL
BAker, ooold hardly be Imagined; but tt
would be unfair to attribute either
partiality or exaggeration to statements which
are, from first to last, the unmistakable utter-
anceaof one who has seen with his own ayes
the maastraiu evUa which he describes, and has
been goadad by them into honest and maldy
Indignation. And certainly, whan we read of
native authorities flatly refasing the means of
transport to hospital neeaasarias intended for
bhair own men— "hundieda of addlars, badly
bit, walking tha whole 130 miles from Sarbatan
to Sna.'oam," from ahear want of ambn-

A little further on occurs another passage,
which, with all necessary allowance for the
military uprit in cam of the writer, is well
worth laying to heart, under existing drenm-
staneea<
"We know Bnssi&'s armed strength. The events
of th« last fav months have thoroo^thly opened oar

power." - ';,
Altogether, onr author mayfairiy claim to
have produced a very readable work, and one
which, it less brilliant than some others of its
kind, eertidnly leaves nothing to ba desired In
the way of solid Information.
ANOTHER COMMENTABT.
A NEW TZSTAMENT COHXKBTABT FOR ENOLISR
HEADERS. Br Tsrimu writers. Mlted br JoEir
Ceuaias ELUoorr, D. D., Lofd Bfabep of Qlooeaater
and BriitoL VOL 1. New-Tork: E. P. Dotk» * Co.
Qoarto, pp. 607.
One almost shadden at the sight of a new
commentary on the Scriptures. They are too
often either dry and dnil, or radical and wicked,
and one may as well trust his own interpreta-
tions as those of the eomnwntator. But there
are soma notable exception*. The German
works of Dr. Heimrleh Meyer, and the English
volumes ot Bishop Wordsworth, and of tkflate
Dean Alford have a reputation which
has been deservedly gained, bnt none
of I them are adapted for tha use
of persons who are not critical scholars, and
the Christian Knowledge Society's brief eem-
mentarir, thoroughly sxcellent as it is for plain
persons, does not answer the more significant
questions which people are aaking about the
New Testament. There has been for a long
time great need ot a modem commentary on
the Scriptures, a commentary which took
into account the position in which intelli-
gent and thoughtful people stand toward the
Bible to-day, and which met tha Inoreasiag de-
sire to enter more deeply into the " tme in-
wardness" ot the sacred writings. At last
this need has been met with a reason-
ble amount of- aneeea in what vrill
be known as Bishop EUleotf i English Com-
mentary. The Bishop has shown himself often
so persistentiy wrong-headed In dealing with
the large questions of English aeelesiaftleal
polities, and even vith the qaestlons of modem
doubt, that we feared the new commentary
might show an incompetent ,hand, but his task
is simply that of overseer. The solid work is
done by others, and the treatment of the Gos-
pels, which the volume already published con-
tains, could hardly in England have been
placed in the hands ot more competent persons
than Bev. Dr. E. H. Plnmptre and Bev. H. W.
Wandns, both leading Profasaor* in King's
Callage, London. The work has been prepared
for two classes ot readers, "those who doubt
the full authority ot Sertptnre, but who
would rejoice to have those donbts dissipated,
and that much larger class that (by God's bless-
ing) doubt not but desire more fully to realize
and understand." It is a thoroughly En^sh
commentary, both in the exclusion ot the pro-
cesses of scholarship which are abundant in
Wordsworth and Alford, and in tiia honesty
and soliemess ot its comments. We have read
many commentaries in which it was a qneation
which to admire the most, the succesa of tha
writer in interjecting his own personality into
the Bible story, or his eas^ way of igfioring ao-
knowledged ditacultias. Bishop EUleott, in his
frank and delightful preface, says that, whih
abstruse questions have not been ignored,
every effor^ has been made to set forth
the deep life of the written word to
every truth-seeking and unbiased reader. This
purpose has been realised in the Commentary.
It aims at much, but it more than meets what it
claims to do. Its comments are those of our
time and age, and they are what readers will
regard as "life to the Inner soul, aa well as
light to the appreciative mind." There is a
consideration for the questions people are ask-
ing to-day, whiah wa have never seen treated
with equal fullness in any other commentary —
not a lettingdown of the work to aignmanti
for Christian evidences, but the frank and open
dealing with the questions every reader desires
to have answered, and the TfiafllTieis to say that
nothing can be known when such is the
fact. That this will meat the approval
of some students of Scripture oannot' be
expected, but the Commentary has candidly
faced the dUBeulties which meet us in the Bible,
aad states every point as it is. There is no
attempt to rAystif y passages or make a special
show of learning. Prof. Plumptre's gMural in-
tiodnetion is tlie model of what such an intro-
duction should be. It meets the requirements
of the ease. It glras the atory of tha origin of
tha New Testamntt, of Its literary history, and
of the relation of its savaial puts to one mother
in such a way that the ordinary English reader
can go the Gospels with a thousand preposses-
sions put aside. Here is jnst what one wants to
know. And the shorter introduetions to each
Gospel have the same character. The resnita
of ample study an given, bnt not its processes,
uid what is tme of the introduetions is charao-
teriatie of the whole work. It is readable, be-
cause it tails one what he wants to know, and It
if not tirasonia, beoanaa it gives yon In a nut-

The way in which ha explains the Tamptattoa-
shows the reverent raaUsm of the Commantaiy:
" There ia no reason to look oS' this narrative
aa an exception to the general mla. The very
diffaranca in the order of the temptations Is, as
far as it goaa, against the idea of a anpematnral
ravalation, [made to the Apoetles.1 There
remains, thctii, the conclusion that we
have here that which orignated in
some communication from our Lord's
own Ups to one of His di^siplas. His own relsbrd
of the experience of those 40 daya. So taken.
It will be seen that-all is coherent, and in aoma
aense (marvelana aathe whole ia) natural, throw-
ing light on onr Lord's past life, explaining
much that followed In His teaching." Prof.
Watkins, in acknowledging the sonrcea ot his
hdp in commenting on St. John's Gospel, says
that he is most indebted to Dr. Ueyer, though
he widely dissented from the somewhat ration-
alistic condndons of the great German com-
mentator.
It is imposiible to fix the rank ot a new eom-
mentary when only one volume oat ot three Is
before the pnblle. The near publication ot the
^Sptaletr'M OommnUary on the New Testament
will give a proper standard of comparison, bnt
it can safely be said that for purely English
readers who go to the Bible for guidance amid
newly developing dUMMes aad perplexities,
or for vivid, fresh andeadoringtmth; for light,
and not light only, but life speaking to
life, this Commentary, if completed as it has
been begun, is likely to give very general satis-
faction. Each one will miss something which
he hoped to find, bnt he will find so much which
satisfies his intellect, so much which aeoords
with his spiritual needs, so much which he has
looked for always In various commentaries bnt
sddom found, that he will not feel that he
can do without the present work. Cler-
gymen will be he'ned by it in
their spiritual understanding of the New Testa-
ment, bnt the ordinary reader win find In it,
first, that general and candid statement ot tha
actoal podtion in which the sacred writings
stand, which is necessary to enable oae to ap-
proach them with dear intelligenee, and, then,
that inddve Und of comment which reaches to
the inner and spiritual sifnifleanee of the text,
while it does not disregard the usual exp lana-
tory apparatus, or hesitate to express every-
thing in unpedantic English. The work grows
upon one, and there is nothing In it whieh can
be spared, or which any one can well pass by.
For the average student ot Scripture it is de-
cidedly the best work of the kind whieh we
have. Its only drawback is the high cost of tha
Engjish work, which E. P. Dutton A Co. only
Import aa a spedal edition for thaAmetleaa

The JimrnaJ Offldel of St Petersbon; has
eomnnu4eatad a summary of the San Stefano
Traa^ ; the Vienna cone^ondsnt of the Lon-
don Ibisa haa aeen and analyzed its text, aad
both Tarsions agree with the details dready
published. There is, then, nothing dthar new
or importaat to be leamed there, and public in-
terest ooatinuea to l>s centred in the one ques-
tion : Will its conditioni be sanctioned by the
rest of Baurope t Bnssia has been asked by
England if she wonld or would not submit the
d^erantartidaato the discussion of tiie con-
gress, and Boaaiaiiiaa not yet replied. There^
a rumor that tha Ccar is disposed to make somar
aoncesdons, and oae enthusiastic bdiever in
the omnipotence of diplomacy has recentiy tele-
graphed from Vienna that "on all the points
there are doors open to the rectification of the '
congress." But they are difficult to ilnd, these
" open doors," except it may be on those ques-
tions of secondary order, on whieh alone
Bussla admits a European revision. In every
treaty, even after an exchange of dgnatures,
there are certain points whoss vagueness is
remedied later by international eommiadnns.
and the treaty of San Stetano is a definite in-
strument, ot which only soma few unfinished
details wiU be left td Europe, or, rather, to
Austria, in concert with Bussla and the Porte.
The first of these is in relation to the fron-
tiers of Montenegro. A European commission
is to put into execution the boundary lines estab-
lished by the treaty, bnt as it la easy to foresee
that, sooner or later, some new conflicts ma^
arise between this turbulent nationality and its
bersditary enemy, Bussla and Austria are dedg-
nated as the official mediators in every quarrel
The agreement ot the Western powers is also
necessary to sanction the choice ot the future
Prince of Btdgaria. who is to be elected by the
people and confirmed by tha Sultan. Bnt a
Bussiaa Commissioner Is to dd th6 Prince ia^'
his labors of administration and military organ-
ization daring a twelvemonth, aad only after
the reforms have besn completed, an^ their
happy effects experienced by tha grateful popn-
latioa, can the other powers demand,'Uiat their
delegates dso shall be admitted ascoadjators
to the imperial (Commissioner to discuss the
figure ot the annud tribute which Bulgaria is to
pay to her suzerain. Finally, Austria ia Invited
to confer with Bnssia and /furkey on the ques-
tion ot the future autonomy and organisation
tt Bosnia and the Herzegovine. This s*ems to
be theenumaration of all the details which Bos-
sla is disposed to submit to - the appreciation of
outsiders, aod.ia classing them as relativdy un-
important there is no misnomer. Concerning
the retrocession of Bessarabia. Prinea Gortseha-
koff dedans categorically that it would be a
personal insult to the Czar to permit any discus-
sion whatever, and the stratsgie importance o{
this province is too great to leave any hope that
the Chancellor will abate his pntendons.
The question of the Dardanelles is incontesU-
bly a Eoropean one, yet the text of artide 24 of
the treaty disposes ot the matter summarily,
and without the dlghtest reterance to Europe,
by saying "that the Straits shdl betree to neu-
trd merebast ships, both in peaoe and during a
war, and that the Porte shall not be permitted
to establish a fictitious blockade in the Black
Sea." The omlsdon of any reference to vessels
of wsr evidentiy means that, as heratofore, they
will be excluded, but the maintenance of the
iiatiu quo ant* on this point has no longer the
same importance, and it is doubtful whether
England will consent to the arrangement ; tor
the Montenegrin ports on the Adriatic, and the
Bulgarian harbor of Ovale, on the Agean, will
be entinly at the service of Bussla, whose
fleets can Sow winter in the Mediterranean in-
stead of pasdng six months ot the year in the
Sdtie. Without a doubt this article, at le«At,
ml^t have been formally reserved tor the dis-
cusdons ot the congress, but the Bussian and
Turkish plenipotentiaries seem to have defi-
nitely dedded otherwise, and the latter by the
last artide of the treaty have been interdicted
by their Government all right to make any ob-
jection or complaint whatever on any and every
clause. The territorial modifications an cari-
ous; Montenegro, Bussia'sespeoid favorite, gets
about doubleas much as she could reasonably ex-
pect; either on the basis of the vtipo$tidttit or the
prindple of nationalities, as her annexed prov-
inces an inhabited exdusivdy by Catholic or
Mussulman Albanians, witfaont, aa they take
much pride in declaring, the slightest admixtnn
ef Sclavonic blood. Servia has not been so
generonsly treated, and her aspirations are by
no means satisfied ; but she has a good slice of
the Turkish cake, and will extend southward
nearly to the Montenegrin boan^ary, when a
narrow strip of territory win just admit of the
qonstruetion of a military road leading into
Bosnia.

Petermann's ethnographied -chart seems to
have been sdeeted as a basis for the delimita-
tion of Bulgaria, whose frontiers an aa in-egu-
lar ^^ the zigzags described by that sidritad-
istio machine, planehette, when in the hands of
a medium. On the south of the new prind-
pality, however, ethnography has given way to
eondderations of a more practical nature, and
the plenipotentiaries were evidentiy unable to
resist the attractions ot the seik Sdonioahas

reaches to within five miles of the town, which

The B usii ns are skUlf al in the preparation of

the work of t lidr diplomatists, Bussian civili-
sation is supi irficial. .OtJier 80,000,000 sub-

a hotbed ct abuses, tor whose correction

precisel; the value of so mocb waste paper.
The curl ms Revelations of Mr. Qutine— himself
a Bussla ir— w ill show tha vdue ot the results
obtained by Mnce Teherkaasy and his st&ff of
"civil" dffldi Js, chosen exdusively from among
the offin rs c t the fiaperid Guard. The first
ueasore wasjthe tormatian ot a commi^lon to
collect tl e materials necessary to a full knowl-
edge of Ihe Interior sitoation ot the country. It
met on the 3d of May, in a little Bonmanian
town, and on ths 21st ot May published a
pamphlet otjnina sheets, which was simply a
compilation ironf some French and German
books oft tra' rel and essays on Bnlsaria. Mr.
Outine preiei ds that ot these 18 days' interval,
16 wen lemi loyed 1^ the printers, and that
three sulfieed for the labors ot the commission.
whieh conteu ptuonsly refused to accept any ot
the suggestio is offered to them by a delegation
ot Bulgaria 1 notables, who were severely
snubbedpnd informed that they would not be
connderad as representatives of the nation ;
that Bdgariaindther had ncr would have any
poUtiedjrepresentation, and that the sooner
they gotpd ot dl saoh reveries the better it
would be tor dl parties^ ■ How Prince Tcher-
kassy and bis assistants took care of their own
interests can | be best jndgedfrom Mr. Oatine's
own worjls : i " It is only natnrd that the Ad
ministration ihould be supported from the re-
sources ot th< country. It is notorious that the
Busslauapro] losed to deliver Bulgaria from the
Turkidiyoke but when we loox atthesdarles
ot the G iven lors, sub-Governors, Chiefs ot Po-
lice, and >tbe rs, we are. led to ask which ot the
two, Tur Es or Bnsslan a, weiKhe4 most heavily
onBnlgaian pockets.^ Each ot the 15 Gov-
ernors u U receive an annual salary ot
7,000 riblS!, ($5.6<K);) with 10,000 ra-
bies mct^, for whldi he is not bound
to account, for inddentd expenses; the
sub-Governor I sn rated at .4.500 rubles
salary, aiid 6,900 toraxtias; the other officials
are in i. diiUar proportion. Traveling ex-
panses, oil tbq liasis adopted in Turkestan, lodg-
ing, and subduenca are to b^ supplied by the
raspectiviminicipaiitiea." .
The Admin: stration is doubUess well satisfied
with this r^me, but it seems that the natives
do not ti,ke in all its beaatits, and complain
that the; r ha re a sterner master than betore.
Nor do lite I iussiaoa feel much sympathy for
their "ei Done Ipated bretfarea." r^^uding them
as mere 1 lewe rs ot wood and drawers ot water,
with whom they mast act rigorously and vic-
orously. The nagl^ba (knout) is to their mind
the most prac ical means of d vllization. " With-

therefore, be . iieeeoted vrith many grains of
diowance, althongh, it they are exMt, the Bus-
sian Ariay is serionslv compromised, and a d-
multane<nisaetion by Austriaand England might
imperil im very existence.
But^/gratifying as the reflection that Bussla
is in> CTiticd pwltion may be to the Brltidi
minO, I will; venture to advance the opinion
that "The officer ot (}en. Gourkho's staff" has
^ot examined the military situation from every
' point of view, and that it is, on the contrary,
strategically Immensdy formidable. Bnssia is
not only absolutdy mistress of all the fortresses
commanding the Danube, both in Bdgaria and
Boumania, but she also holds the months of the
river, all of which eonstiiute an admirable line
of detenae against Austria, whence her flanks
and rear would have been threatened had the
Hungarians succaeded in their war programme
while the Ottoman armies were still in we field.
Nor can it be doubted that, on the first hostile
demonstration^ Bnssia would seize on Varna,
and thus support on this point her base ot oper-
tlons, which will rest now. not on the Carpa-
thians, but on the Danube and the Etixiae. With
her commaoleatians entirely open to Odessa,
Nicolaieff. and the Crimean ports, aU her
stores can be brought directlv by sea
from her southern provinces, and the limited
acoommodatiODS of the Boumanian railways ba
entirdy pat out of the question. Of ooorae,
this view ia baaed upon the snppodtion of
Turkey's neatrdity or connivance ; but. in the
present state of afiairs. this is an>-thing butim-
probable. It is also subject to another eventa-
ality : that England may land a corns d'armfe
at some point in Bonmelia. force the
gassage ot the Bosphorus into the Black
es, and thus turn the podtiona of
the Bussian Army and destroy its communi-
cations vith its base. Bnt with all this, Bus-
sia's strategic adv.:ntages seetued by the San
Stefano Treaty will remain, unless there be a
combined action of Austria and England.
Against dther assailant done, she can hold her
own successfully. I know but iaiperfaetiy
what is going on in Vienna. All the foreign
newsp.iper corrsspondnnts have been, for sev-
erd days, eztnmely droam'<pect, but locd
gossip anaounces that a great change ot
feding In favor of Buaaia is beginniag to be
manifested, and that constant secret interviews
take place between the Emperor and two Ger-
man Princes, Alexander of Hease. aad Pierre
D'OIdenburg, both of whom an eonnedad with
t e reignjag family in Bossia. The tdegraphie
dispatches sapplement the above, and after at
first denylng'that an alliance with England was
ever en the tapis, and that it would be usdess,
as Russia's moderation would consent to modi-
fleations ot the treaty, and finally assert that the
dlianoe has been formally declined.
I think, then, that the Austrian policy may
be summeid up thus: Befnsd ot aU diplomatie
action in common with- Enftiand; adhesldn to
the Baasiaaprogramme oonceniingthe epngraea,
the Russian proposals being considered satis-
factory and those of England exorbitant ; and
lastly, an appreciation becoming every day
more favorable ot the treaty, which even
Count Andrassy begins to look upon as inoffen-
sive. The Englidi press discusses the question
whetiier Eosluid or Russia is most interested
in tbe meeting ot the congress. The sanction
of the plenipotentiaries would certdnly be a
great triumph for Bussian diplomacy, but, atter
all, Rpssia is one ot the Aeoti pottidentU ot
Prince de Bismarck's apothegm, and, as it is per-
fectly understood that the decidons of the ma-
jority can in no way bind the dissentient
minority, her situation would not be materially
affected in any way. ' With England the case is
somewhat different. She has abstained for
some time troia participation in Continental
affdrs, and it would perhaps be wise
if her statesmen should listen to what
may be sdd by those of other powers, if it were
only to ieam what is thought ot her influence
in Europe. Still, it must be admitted that a
congress without tbe participation of England
would t>e tne presage of incdculable calamities,
and would be almost equivdent to a rupture
with Russia. To a supei^eial observer it seeuls
well nigh impossible that a men metaphyslcd
difficulty, on a question ot form, should be'
fraught with such serious -consequences, but
whoever has followed attentively the various
phases of opinion in England, whoever has
measured the intendty of the feelings enter-
tained toward Russia, must be only astonished
that the conflict has been so long delayed. I
can only hope, but I dare not believe, that the
pessimists are wrong.
OITT TO THE PESSBYIiTASriA ItUBBVU.
The Philadelphia Lodger ot Friday says:
"Sneh of oar people as have made visits to the

Shippers in this Oitr bave leeeived from the
I vailona tronk railioad liaea eopiea of a aotiee which
reada aa foUowa :
" It hafl been agreed that, eommeneing with April
IS, 1878, all aruclee wUtii are taken aeeording to
th; present claniflaation of wett-boand freight at
'oTmen' risk' or 'released,' will be placed one
elsMbigtaeTthanat preaent, if taken at 'carrier's
. liak,' to-wlt:
" Foorth olaaa willbe nlaaif d at third dasa.
" Third elaas wHI be daaaed at aeebnd daaa.
" Second daaa wHI be daaaed at flat daaa.
" First daaa win be daaaed at one and a half daaa.
" One and a half daaa win be daaaed at two timee
firstelaaa.
"Two timea first daaa wHI be iiUanil at thiee
time* first class.
"Three times flnt data wiO ba daaaed at fonr
tlaea fiat class.
" Four times first elaaa win be flaatil at firs timea
firstelaaa.
" When theluwei late la dealredahippeamaat state
, on the * shiiraiag order or reoeint^ that the freight is
'to be tfaascarred at 'ownfirs risk^' as ia eaaaa
where tUs is omittea the freight wiH be ehaigedat
the liigfaest rates and forwarded at 'carrier's risk.' "
Sbippea are highly indignant at thia. which they
term the "latest ontrage of tlie railroad pool" They
say that it means "we wiU carry yonr merchandise
at pieaent foil rates and dassificationa if yon will re-
leeae as from aH liability. -If not, we will fine yon."
The rate forfirat-elass freight to Cincinnati at owner's
risk is 70 cents ; oneandahalf daaa ia half aa much
more, eqdbl to $1*05 per 100 ponnds. Bailroad
men say that it haa always been thlBenstom to charge
more for periahable goods, sneo aa f nrniture, mirrors,
wine, and oili (which an snbject to breakage,) Ae.,

DID NOT OOWCIT PEBJURT.
AppUeotloB was yesterday made to Judge
Dapue, in Newark, Nr J., to quaah the ladlctmeBt
found Bgalsat Benjamtn Noyes, Prea!deBt of the Na-
tiond Ciq>ital Life Insnraaee Ooippany of Wuhing-
ton. for peijniy. 1Sx.Seenary Bobeson and Hon.
A. Q. K^aby aigned the motion for Hr. Norea ; G.
N. Abeel, tile County Proaecntor, resisted, it. Hr.
Keul7 said that while Noyes is anxious for a trid,
he deslna that tba ehaige agdnst him shall be a
legdone.' If the indictment does- not charge idm
with erime be desires to liave it set aside, and him-
alf at at liberty. The indictment is for perjury
committed on the occasion of his examination befon
Jastiee Jessnp. It is a nttled practice of the coaeta,
contended Hr. Keaaiiy, that tiiese prdiminary ex-
aminations Shall be voiantary and not under oath,
and even if the oath bad been property admiaistaied
Noya had not, he add, eommltled paijnry. Tbe
anegation in the adletment ia that ba atgaed a re-
ceipt. Hr. Keasbyeonteaded that tbe reedptwaanot
a contract. Hr. Keasby havingmade some reference
to the legality of Noya' arreet, Proaecntor Abeel ob-
jected, and Judge Depne aid that he eoold aot insti-
tute oa iaqniry u to the procaedinga between tbe
Governor at tItiw-Jntfj and the Oltia-JustiM of tbe
United States.
Proaecntor Abeel contended that the indictment
setaforOiallthatisneeessarr In an indictment for
peijnry ; that fda swearing on a voluntary examina-
tion is perjury, and that Hr. Nona' assertion that be
knew nothing of the mlaing ooods of the New-
Jeney Hutud Inaranee Company, and that he had
not s^aed a contract for them, ia falsified by tbe fact
that he had signed a recdpt.
' Hoa. George VL Bobeson, iriio closed the arga-
ment, aald that antbe dreamxtaneain tlie caa urge
tbe court to liberate Noyes. Away from home and
friends; awayfnmhia property aad from an tbe
Sidpe he could have from aasoeUtluu end ebaroeter,

coacladed hr aakfaiirtbu, if tba court dedded.tbe la.
dietmeht in qaestion to be not good, it wiU not be
bdd that Noyce' extradition upon it wiU anIBa to

A k«leido»cop« h»8 iw>t muij more
changes of form than the Baitem quertlon.
Ooee in aa Infinite number of times the com-
plex designs wiU ahneit rapeat themselvea. The
Eastern question mriatains the truthful chaiws-
Isr of this eoiap«i«on. To-day we have re-
turned to the form of manymontha ago, when
SBT reading of public opinion otoaed me to

i^agiiMt Kokand. The Uteit torn of the

bear of "The Triple AlUanoe" that once
moieafflleta the fearfiU imagination of Sng-
laud. And not without reason. The Teleyrapk,
however Ttircophile it may have been, haa
from the first predicted tlie course of eveatt in
this great business. It has continually pointed
out that the aliianoa of the three Emperors,
though it misht have been sliaken, would lie re-
constructed ; that Austria is at the mercy Of
Germany and Bossia; and that there would he
no meeting of the congress. Whatever change to-
morrow may bring forth, there has all through
been an apparent undezstanding between Bns-
sia and Germany, and to-day the fears of this
palter, which represents the vast majority of
Englishmen in this matter, seem on the eve of
realization.
The three Emperors have in days gone by
frightened England, but never into submission
to their will. When Bismarck spoke the other
day to the civilized world, and Count Andrassy
asked for a v^te of credit, the triple alliance
was looked upon as once more a thing of the
past. Bussia has labored hard sines then at the
wo^k of reuniting the powers. She has flat-
tered Bismarck, and appealed to Kaiser Wil-
liam's . brotherly sentiments. England's firm-
ness has excited the hopes of France. That
brings the Czar and the Kaiser closer together.
Austria threatening to throw in her lot with
England bronght Bismarck and Count Andrassy
into communication again, and Ignatieif has
been sent to Vienna to coax or to threaten, with
tlie power of Germany at his elbow. I have
often in these columns defended Count An-
drassy from charges of vacillation and
fickleness. What seems on his part to
be want of frankness arises from too
complete a knowledge of his country's danger.
It is tielieved torday that Francis Joseph has
reentered the "Kaiserbnnd." And yet it is
difScult to see how Austria is to be compensated
for the changes which Russia is to make in
Europe. English intertots seem to have tieen
considered far more than Austrian. The pro-
longed occupation of Bulgaria, the vastness of
the new State, the increase of territory granted
to Servia and Montenegro, the independence of
Boumanla, the annexation of the mouth of the
Danube, all these conditions affect Austrian
interests, and if Austria permits these changes
to be accomplished, "then," it is argued by
lookers-on in London, " there must be an al-
liance between the three Emperors, so that
Germany and Austria are to have compensa-
tion in some new direction."
The congress may resolve itself into a con-
ference of the three powers which drew up
the Berlin memorandum, and they may ratify
and pledge themselves to maintain accomplished
facts. This is the latest view of the London
clubs. England insists that the treaty formally
within thi eye and knowledpre of the congress
shall be placed there by Eassia. and the Czar
declines to acknowiedge'the right of the powers
to sit in iudgment upon his work. To an out-
sider this phase of the conference question
looks like a mere quibble, but EnirlaQd sees tbe
point as a matter of grave importance, and,
while Bussia says it is a mere tecfaoicaliQr, the
Czar nevertheless refuses the English demand.
Some method of compromise niay'be found, and
tbe friends of Ru.ssia in London say that a way
will be discovered. It may be so ; I doubt it.
At present there is no glimmer of it ; and
it Is prettv well understood that If
Etigjand declines to send a representative
to the congress, France and Italy will " do
likewise." There are many thoughtful men
sitting nightly under the illuminated ceiling of
the House of Commons who believe that war
between England and Russia is a certainty.
The smallest thing might bring the two coun-
tries into collision, and we have become so ac-
customed to the strain that the crisis of peace
or war is now accepted as a matter of course.
Some morning we may wake up to find that
Russia has re(^uested Queen Victoria to with-
draw her fleet from the Sea of Marmora, that
Victoria has refpsed ; and before we know
where we are, the thunders of the next great
war will awaken the echoes of Constantinople.
The Agenee Susae charsres the English Govern-
ment with jeopardizing the maintenance
of peace, and the Journal de St. Petertbourg
attacks them with virulence. In Vienna.the
chances of a congress are considered to' be
greatiy diminished within the last 48 hours.
Russia has submitted a new opportunity to
Austria, which is described to-day as "the
Anstro-Russian parallel scheme of annexation."
The idea is to give Austria in return for Slav
preponderance in Bulgaria an extension of Ans-
triui domination in the western portion of the
Balkan Peninsula. Count Andrassy is inclined
to accept this. It is a far greateif scheme tlian
the Bosnia and Herzegovina business, and
promises to show a startling development (so
alarmists in London think) of the triple game
of plunder which is said to bind the three Em-
perors together. We shall see. It is clear the
present condition of things must hare im-
portant changes ere long. Russia's object is
evidentiy to satisfy Austria and Germany, and
then to iefj the rest of the world in
or out of the congress. Tbe Iford calls
upon the Continental States to accomplish
tbe reorganization of the Balkan Provinces ir-
respective of England, which can be done with-
out aeruple, seeing that " the solution they are
called upon to consecrate does not touch Eng-
lish interests." On the other hand, the Coneti-
tutiannel argues that Russia cannot honorably
reject England's demand relative to the com-
munication to the congress of the trea^ of
1878. " Whether conzress meets or not the
treatyof San Stefano will reauire the sanction
of Europe." The Dlbatt cannot regard the
treaty as a settlement of the Eastern question
even for a time. The present arrangements
are " only fitted to aggravate every one of the
points at issue for a new discussion in the im-
mediate future." Tbe Vibatt unites in sympa-
thy for England, and concludes a remarkable
article witii these remarkable words : " The
old school of Russian diplomacy, ambitious cer-
tainly, but respectful of rights, precise and
conservative, exists no longer. It has given
way to a school of ' fiery and audacious revolu-
tionists. The first has ended, the second be-
gins ; liistory will judge between them." Le
Tempt says : " The treaU- of San Stefano has
had the object, and will have the result, of a
Russian sequestration of Turkey. In order
to, prevent this result the congress have
the right of revising tbe treaty from beginning
to end. This is what Bussia could not admit,
bntwhat England was botmdto demand the
moment she wished to associate herself with
tbe collective work of Europe in the East, and
not lend herself to the manifest ambitions of
tbe Slav Empire." Thus the ball rolls on.
Meanwhile the Roumanian Ctiambera are hold-
ing secret sittings under the depressing influ-
ence of tbe loss of Bessarabia, and Grand Duke
Nicholas has visited the Sultan in military
state, and tbe Sultan has " returned tbe com-
pliment." Th^ talked together for more than
an hour, and the Bussian sailors cheered the
Turkish monarch. "What new conspiracy is
in stose for us T' they ask at the Carlton, in
spite of tbe reassuring telegrams of Anglo-
Turks at Pera that En^nd has only to lift up
her ilnger in downright earnest to hare the im-
mediate co-operation of the 50,000 troops now
facing the Bussians under the shadow of Brit-
ish interests in the neighborhood of the Dar-
danelles. ^^^^^

CovstAnratopi^, Tuesday March 12, 1878.
The separatist tendencies, to vrhloh I re-
ferred in ray last letter, are becoming seriously
accentuated. As yet, there has been notliing
like a general insurrection, but both tlie Syrians
and the Arabs appear to be not at aU disposed
to labmit to the oonsequenses of the faults of
the Stambool Government, and eontcUrate to
the payment of the war indeiniitty. Indeed, it
Is dtfflenlt to say whether the Tnrks or the
BuT^'"* are most held in eseeratiea hy the
popalsttoBS of Asia Minor. Aa regard* S^U,
some peeilmliti bqt at* titer paadmlatcT—
pretend to discover the maohlnationir of the
Eh^ve and the influence of Bnsalan gold.
There may be some foundation for Imth aup-
poattiina, for Prince Hassan of Egypt declined
to leave his troops when these returned from
Varna, and positively refused to accept a
passage on the imperial yacht which
had been placed, at his disposal, perhaps
dreading the fate of others of the Sultan's
guests, who have disappeared or died suddenly
after partaking of the hospitalities of Teheragan
and Y Idiz Kloaque. The new vali of Syria,
Hamdy Pasha, was. personally, well received,
but as an Ottoman fiinctionary he is avoided.
At Smyrna, and in other large cities, the in-
habitants say plainly that they have had enough
of administrators provided by the Porte, and
can manage their own affairs. In Koniah mat-
ters are still more grave. The Turkish Count
de Chambord, (for we have a legitimate pre-
tender to the throne here, as well as in France.)
begins to assert his rights. This (rancAe ainie of
Islam is now represented by the Mollah ITnkair,
the Caliph of Koniah, the only real Caliph, tie
only real discendant of the Pronhet I believe
that there is some foundation for his preten-
sions, but at least his partisans maintain that,
although his ancestors abdicated voluntarily
their rights in favor of the descendants of Os-
man, a representative of these legitimate sov-
ereigns has always, since the seventh century
of the Hegira, resided at Kimah, with certain
recognized and unquestioned privileges, and
that the ceremonies of the Taklidi Seif—ihe in-
vestiture of the sabre — are not legal, without
the p esence and consecration of the delegate
of the Emir of Koniah.
The present chief — for his predecessors have
been contented to remain quiet recipients of a
fat pension from the Seraglio— declares that the
reigfning dynasty, degenerated and incapable,
has shown itselif^ unworthy of the throne, and
that he, its legitimate possessor, Intends to as-
sert himself. There has never been much kind
feeling between "Turks and Arabs, and as the
latter are ready to follow any lead which shows
a chance of throwing off the yoke, it is easy to
foresee tbe consequences of the movement.
From all quarters we hear of new complica-
tions, and tbe chorus of malcontents liecome^
louder every day. On one side we have tbe in
surrection in the Greek provinces, on the other
the dissatisfaction of the Servians — although
these are not at all interesting in their com-
plaints— and. what is more to tbe purpose, the
alleged grievances of Roumania ; b^t on these
points I am promised some information of a
curious character, which I will communicate
later. All. however, results, for the time being,
in tbe resumption of military preparations by
the Turks. New levies, remains of ancient bat-
talions, garrisons from tbe quadrilateral, have
been concentrated in the capita], where they
hare been freshly uniformed and armed, and
are drilling with an ardor and industry resem-
bling more the eve of a war than the morrow of
the signature of a peace.
It is difficult t3 appreciate the real feeling of
the nation respecting the treaty, but from my
knowledge of the Mussulman character I judge
that the moss of the population is indifferent ;
that the Army is dissatisfied — for in its ranks
still linger.some remai'-sof fanatiral patriotism —
and that the rulers are only waiting for a good
chance to b tray somebody, pro .ided that they
can thereby make something for the mselves.
The exasperation against England has certain-
ly diminished, at least in the higher political
spheres. The President of the Council of Min-
isters, Achmet Vefky, is the creature of Mr.
Layard. with whom he is in constant secret
communication, and some clever people assert
that a corpt de lliidtre is in preparation, in the
shape of an Anglo-Greek-Turkish alliance, with
the assistance of .RoamaDia, and perhaps Ser-
via ; for in no other way would Greece be ot any
use against Russia. At all events, tbe project
is not unreasonable, and the increase of Greek
influence at the Porte gives strength to the ru-
mors.
Tbe question of the refugees is at present tbe
most interesting for the Constantlnopolitans.
Tbe Tartars and Circassians have been sent
over in large numbers to Asia, the Greeks and
Bulgarians have generally returned to their for-
mer localities ; but the Mussulmans remain, and
ndw detachments arrive every day, to be lodged
as well as pos&ible in the mosques, in the tarb^
or tombs of .the Sultans, in the midressie. and in
the khans. Nothing can be imagined more
pitiable than the aspect of these wretched be-
ings who squat down in silence, seeking a little
heat wherever there is a ray of sunshine, and
gazing without a shadow of emotion at the cof-
fins— and whatcoffins 1 fouriioards tied together
with a piece of rope — which at everv moment
pass before their eyes, 8 or 10 at a time. Sick-
ness and privation are telling heavily upon
these poor creatures ; scarlet fever and small-
pox among the children, typhus and typhoid
fever among their parents. It is estimated
that the average of sick among the
fugitives is at least 7 per cent, and
that of the 7,000 victims, 2,000 have suc-
cumbed to contagious disorders. The Turkish
Compassionate Fund and tbe other relief socie-
ties have organized several hospitals to which
patients are transported in regular ambulance
wagons, much to the relief of the population to
whom the constant requisition of ordinary
street carriages presented a serious danger. But
the resources of these good Samaritans are lim-
WASHINGTOK
provides for the wants of 24,000 indigents,
and several of those self-sacrificing angels, the
Sisters of -Charity, have died from overwork
and exhaustion. A number of kitchens have
been put up for the distribution of soup and
pilaf, to which are sometimes added a quarter
of a pound of bread and a small piece of meat.
At some of these regular tickets are given, to
be presented at the office, where they ags coun-
tersigned and dated each day. At others count-
ers are issued, square one day, octagon for the
next, but as not even charity is safe from im-
posture, it has been discovered that some of
the refugees, after receiving their allow-
ance, would clip off the corners of the
morrow's counters and offer them in exchange
for a second ration. There are, too, a good
many counterfeit fugitives, and to those must
be assribed the commission of most of the acts
of violence which have been laid to the charge
of the mass, who, when not impostors, are sub-
missive and even grateful to their benefactors.
The Apostolic Prefect of the Lazaristshas taken
100 of these under bis care, and speaks in the
highest terms of the expressions of sincere
gratitude which they employ. But this is only
natural, and it would be monstrons if the
sentiinent were not manifested in return forthe
noble emulation shown by Europeans, Greeks,
Armenians, and Levantines who give without
hesitation, in spite of the daily-increasing finan-
cial embarrassment; for everything has more
than doubled in price on account of the disas-
ters of the war, the difBcultv of communica-
tions with the interior, and the nei^lmrbaod of
the Bussian Armies; but, in this generous' ri-
valry, it must be remarked, the Turks them-
selves take no part. Eveiy means is tried to
increase the resources of the relief societies.
Concerts, lotteries, masked balls succeed each
other every night. One lottery alone produced
800 Turkish pounds— 18,400 francs — and at a
masked ball recentiv given in one of our thea-
tres all of the ^ite of the Armenian society
was present, and some indiscreet people even
assert that more than one Turkish lady was
there muifled in a domino.
But the refugees themselves do nothing to
better their condition, and wait in complete in-
action, until the Government shall be ready to
tend them to their former homes, or to foreign
parts, they do not appear to care which. It is
true that they could not find much employment
here, hue it is equally true that they have not
an biherent love for work. The women only
are always \mff washing their rags, and I made
some gypsies who are encamped near my house,
at MakR Kellr, supremely happy by the present
of a piece of soap. A certain number of the

Washington, April 7.— The appropria-
tion for printing for the use of the Post Oflce
Department is again exhatuted, and unless re-
lief is speedily obtained great public incon-
venience will result Under the law 4he Public
Printer estmot do any printing whatever for
any department unless money has been specifi-
cally appropriated for that purpose, and he has
notified the Post OfSce Department that he can-
not fill anymore orders for that department un-
til Congress shall make an appropriation. The
Honse Committed on Appropriations were
duly notified of this deficiency, and a bin is now
pending in which $33,000 are appropriated
.to meet it. This bin is now with a conference
committee, and should be disposed of in a few
days. A failure to act promptiy upon this mat-
ter will result in stopping tbe entire business of
registering letters and the money-order system,
as the blanks necessary to conduct those two
branches must be supplied from Washington.
The ordinary blanks used in conducting busi-
ness between the local offices and the depart-
ment may be printed by the various Postmas-
ters if they have any funds that can be made
andlable for such purposes. There was a defi-
ciency last year in the appropriation for
printing, and public embarrassment was only
prevented by using an unexpended balance for
paper, which enabled the Postmaster^General
to have the necessary printing executed until
the end of the fiscal year. The existence of
this deficiency, after the warning of last year,
shows the utter disregard of the Committee on
Appropriations of the actual needs of tbe pnt>-
llc service. Estimates based upon actual re-
quirements are cut down simply to make poUt-
ical capital, and the result of this80H»lled econ-

tails, and its folly is shown by the numerous

OPERATION OF WOOD'S TARIFF.
BEDDCED BETENDE INSTEAD OP INCBEASED
— EXAMINATION OP THE BILL BY TBE
BUBEAtr OP STATlrTICS.
Special Ditpateh to the Nne- Tork Tim£t,
Washington, April 7. — The Btirean of
Statistics have made a careful analysis of
Wood's Tariff biU with the view of ascertaining
how much revenue it would ^ield. The im-
portations for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1877, were taken as the basis for calculation.
The amount of -revenue collected that
year was near $131,000,000. Mr. Wood,
in framing his bill, directed his efforts to
puttingitin such shape as to yield$150,000,000
annuaUy. Taking the importations for the
fiscal year 1877 as a. basis, and applying the
Wood bill, the Bureau of Statistics estimate
that there would have been collected about
$122,000,000. That is, had Wood's biU been
in operation in 1877, the Customs receipts, in-
stead of being $131,000,000, would have been
but $122,000,000. This is not only a
reduction of about $9,000,000 below the
actual receipts for the last fiscal year, but is
$28,000,000 below the figures which Mr.
Wood promised bv his bill. The estimates of
the Bureau of Statistics show that the passage
of Mr. Wood's bill in its present shape wiU re-
duce instead of increase the Customs receipts,
and to that extent would not only affect the
revenue, but would operate against the resump-
tion of specie payment on Jan. l>next

TBE SOUTB AFRICAN KAFIR WAR
SETZRE PIGBTINe IN THE PIBIE BUSH — ^SB-
COCOENI SAID TO BAVE DECLARED HIM-
SELF HOSTILE TO THE BBITISH.
London, April 7. — News from the Cape
seems to betoken the' renewal of serious
troables. A Benter telegram, dated Cape Town,
Mareh 19, says : " Severe fighting occnrred in
the Pine Bush yesterday, and is still pro-
ceeding. It is reported that Secocoeni
has declared himself openly hostile, and
beMeged two forts in the Transvaal. This most
serious news has just reached here." Seco-
coeni is a powerful chief with whom the Trans-
vaal Republic was at war prior to its annexa-
tion. EUs intervention would spread the war to
a wholly new quarter, and very possibly cause
complications with the Zulu King, of whom he
is a feudatory, and who is able to place a well
armed and organized force of several thousands
in tbe field.
g London, April 8.— A dispatch to the Timet
>m Cape Town confirms the report of severe
fighting. The . British troops, in one action,
were forced to retreat before an overwhelming
force. '
Secocoeni's followers have killed some Eu-
ropeans. Assistance is requested.
TBE OCEAN NATIONAL BANK.
AN IMPORTANT DECISION BY JUDGE SHIP-
MAN r» HARTFOBO — DOUBLE LIABILITY
OP ET0CKB0LDEB8 ESTABLISBED AS
AGAINST THE STOCK BELONGING TO AN
ESTATE IN LIQUIDATION.
Special Z>tmmtek to-the yeto-Tort 7Tme&
Habtfobd, April 7. — Judge Shipman's opin-
ion in the case of Theodore BL Davis, Beeeiver of
the Ocean National Bank, Xew-York. asoinst Harvey
H Weed, of Stamford, Administrator ot the estate
of Nathaniel Weed, fills 48 folios. It is the first de-
cision in the United States Courts under that section
of the National Banking act which makes stockhold-
ers doubly liable, and the clrcamstances of this case,
which Is one of several in Connecticat are pecallar
In this, tha^ the stock was a part of an
estate which bad been settled and divided
among the heirs. When the hank failed 514
shares of the stock stood in the name of Nathaniel
Weed. The assessment made by the Receiver was
for 40 per cent of the par value of the stock, paya-
ble in two installments, and the order of the Con-
troUer of the Currency was to institnte salts for the
enforcement ot the liability. The decision is in
favor of the Beeeiver, and Judge Shipmaa eonelndea
his finding as follows :
" The action Is based upon the theory that the
claim is against the estate of tbe intestnte as an
estate in process of settlement, and under the facts
in the case tbe question arises wliether a Receiver
of an Insolvent national bhnkinj: a&socl&tiou has a
valid claim for an assessoient acainst tbe estate
generally of a deceased stockholder who died prior to
the insolvency of tbe Dank, but whose stock Das not
been transferred at the dste of the Controller's order.
The defendant contends that the Receiver never had
a claim against the estate of Nathaniel Weed, bat
that his claim is against existing stockholders, and
that the title to the stock vested in the Administrator
and related back to ttie date of the intestate's death.
It is true that tbe title to personal property of an
intestate ve»t», in Connecticut, in his Administrator
by force of local law aud the prant of adminirtration.
but I think that the claim of the defendant, althongh
ingenious. Is not tenable, for the following reasons:
*' L An Executor or Administrator has his estate,
as such, in aufcr droit merely, viz., as tbe .minister
or disnenser of the goods of . the dead. (I. Williams
on Executors, 562.) j^
" XL The original liability of the intestate to pay
the assessment which may be ordered by the Con-
troller was a voluntary agreement, ev'idenced by his
subscription, or by his becoming a stockholder. It
is not imposed by way of forfeitare or penalty. It
is Imposed by the statute, but it also exists by vir-
tue of the contract which tbe intestate entered into
when he became a stockholder. When the stock-
holder dies his estate becomes burdened with tbe
same contract or agreement which the dead man
had assumed, and so lone as it. though the Executor
or Administrator, holds the stock as the property of
the estate, and the stock has not been transferred
on the l>ookB ot the bank, and the liability has not
been discbarRed by some act which shows that the
new stockholder has taken the place of the old one.
the contract liability still adheres to the estate. This
liability is not the result of any new contract, for the
Administrator did not volnntarilyiwcome the owner
of the stock ; It came to him as the dispenser of the
goods of the dead, and the liability rested unon the
stock, and was a part of tbe contingent liability of
the estate, at least until It was transferred to some
other person by a transfer, free from fraud. (L Com-
ing vs. McCullongh, 1 Oomst. 47 ; Bailey vs. Hol-
lister, 26N. 7.112: Lowry vs. Inman. 46 N. Y.
119: Hawthorne vs. Calef, 2 Wall., 22 j Gray vs.
Coffin. 9 Gush., 192.)
"III. "When an obligation devolves upon an Exec-
utor solely by virtue of his successorship to the es-
tate, and not by express contract or agreement of his
own. the estate is liable. If an Executor is liable to
pay an oblication restinc upon personal property
which came to him from the testator, ai,d of which
the Executor is the owner only as a representative of
the estate, and which obligation is due from him
solely because he represents tbe estate, he is liable
as Execntor. even if suit mieht have been also broneht
against him personally. (East Hartford against Pit-
kin • 8 Conn., 404, per Williams, J.) I do not
thinkthat section 5, 152 was intended to affect the
liability for assessment of estates in progress ot
settlement The principal object of the section waa to
prevent a personal liability from running osaiust Ex-
ecutors. Administrators, Trustees, or guardianawhO
had purchased as Trustees, or to whom had been
transferred in their names as Trustees, national
bank stocks foe the benefit of the trust estates.
Having hy such purchase voluntarily entered into a
contingent liability for assessments, it might be
claimed that a judsment de bonie proprite eonld he
rendered against them. The main object of the sec-
tion was to prevent persona' judgments beine ren.
dered aeninst sneh persons in whom the stock stood
on the books of the bank as Trustees.
"I am. therefore, of opinion that the facts alleged
in the plea are not a valid defense to prevent a judg-
ment against the defendant, df bonie decedentxa
As It is not snegested that the defendant has any-
other ground ofi defense, the demurrer is sustained,
■and judinnent should be rendered asninst him as
Administrator de bonie non, solely de bonie decedenti*.

STRIKES IN KANSAS.
THE SANTA FB BAILROAD COMPANY HOLDING

TOPEEA, Kan., April 7. — The Atchison,
Topeka, an* Santa F^ Railroad Company are strong
in their determination not to yield to tbe strikers,
and will make no eoneessions. Ko freight trains will
move until Monday. A special from Newton, Kan.,
says there has been no discontent existing west
of Emporia ontside of a few peTsons. as is evidenced
by the fact that only eicht engineers ont of tbe whole
number employed on the 565 miles of road from
Emporia to Paeblo have stopped work ; and. further,
that not onl.v have trains been running so Ions ns
there were freight and passengers to haul west of
Emporia, bat engineets from this dirision have been
takmg passenger trains tlirongh from Newton to
Kansas CUy.
A strike occurred yesterday at the Insane Asylum,
which is beins built at Topeka. The contractor. Mr.
McOonigal. receives pay upon estimates submitted
to the lioard at their meeting monthly or every two
months. The strikers are the sub-contractorsandmen
who say that they have not been paid as they should
be. There is, however, noexcitement in eonsecuence
of the strike. The grademen at the asylum have
also struck because they have not been paid. Mr.
Trickey has the contract for grading. The non-pay-
ments are not, of course, the fault of the HtMie or of
the booxd. All wHl prohiftbly be settled soon.

that of James 0*I>onnel, **tiie hairy man,** Gbariei

GeoT)^ K. Smith, a coal ojwzmtor in Aadenxted, thli
county, on the errenlng of Not. 5, 1863. ^lis vaa
one of the very fir«t of the KoUie Magolre mnrdera.
Even the name of HoUie Maeatre iras nnknown in
this eoantry at that time, the desperadoes being
oaDed Boekshots. The society saems-to have had its
organization about this very time, «nd nearly all the
men who became leaders afterward in the diiferent
oonnties were connected with the murder of Smithy
The murdered man came from England, and hsviqs
a practical knowledse of mining he soon ro«e to b^«
partner in a coal oneration. He had a harsh wiyyot
dealing with bis men, and was rather nnpopnlar. ea
pecially witii the BnckshoCa, whom he discbajge^
from bis employ and genetmlly treated as tbecr d*
serred. Among the Bockshots were a nnmher ot
boonty-jnmpers and men who had resisted the draft,
and these Smith expos6d to the United Statei
Marshal, and they were arrested. Imm»
diately afterward tbe Bnchshots held a meet-
ing in the woods near the Frenchtown Chnreh
and resolved that Smith should not lira. A plan to
kill blm was arranged, and the next nsgfat was ap-
pointed for tiie assassination. On the ni^t of the
murder Smith csme home from Manch Chunk sick.
He ar^iTed at bis honse after 7 o'clock, and at odc«
went to bed. Mra. SnAth had a premonition of the
disaster, and she asked a young clerk named Uliich
to spend tbe eveninK at the house. The' other In-
mates • were two women. About 8 o'clock
a knock was heard at tbe door, and, on its
being opened, two men entered. The taller one aaid
he had a letter for Mr. Smith from A. G. Brod>
head, tbe Superintendent of the Beaver Meadow l^
vision of the I^bfgb Valley Bidlroad. and his orders
were to deliver it personally to Mr. Smith. He waa
told that Mr. Smith was ^ck in bed, and the letter
would be giren to him. Tbe man replied that ha
eonld give the letter to no one but Smith. Mrs.
Smith then went ns> to Mr. Smith's bedroom, and ha
sent word that tbe man should bring the letter in tho
morning. On being told this, tbe taller man drew
out a pistol and exploded it accidentally. Tlil«
brought Smith and TJlrieh into the room, and at thi
same moment a crowd of Buckabots pressed in tbe
front door. Smith, who was in his night clotbas,
was at ODce shot, and fell dead. Ulrich was shot in
tbe 1^ and beaten, and tbe women were maltreated.
The assassins, who most hare numbered 12 or 15,
escaped.
This is the story of the murder and all tbab was
known by the authorities until 1876, when aU the
facts were told by diaries Mnlherrin. John J.. Slat-
tery, and other Mollies, who made confessions dur-
ing that year. The followinK-named men "were in
tbe plot and at the scene of the murder: Jack
Kehoe, the Captain of the Buckshots, who was con-
victed of the murder of T. W. S. Langdon, asd wUi
be hanged in Pottsville on the 18th inst.; Long Jobn
Donobue, the tall man who went to Smith's house :
John Flynn, known as Humpy Plynu, his companion
in crime on that evening ; James 0'Doune\ Colum-
bus McGee, arrested for the Xjaogaon murder and.
diKcfaar^d for want of evidence, since runaway;
Bodymaater Boyle, wbo now lives in Oregon; P;«t

Morgan Powell .- Tbomas P. Fisher, banged here on
the U8th ult., for the murder of Powell, and a num-
ber of others whose names sfaoold not be published
at this time. The Commonwealth is fully ncquair ted
with all tbe facts in the case and notwithbtaOAlbu;
the long time which has elapsed expect to oonvica: tbe
prisoners of murder In the tirst degree. It is known
who fired the fatal shot and all other important
points. Among tbe witnesses for the Canimon-
wealth are Jsmes Kerrigan, Cliarles Mnlherrin, John
J. Slsttery, Marcus Kuil (Kelly the Bum. ) Detective
McParlan, Mrs. Smith, who reMdes in Brootlvn, and
Mr. Ulrich. Long John Donohue. who whs the bus-
band of the woman (and father of seven children Dy
her) who was afterward the wife of Yellow Jack
Donobue, was shot in the hand on the n%ht of the
murder of Smith. He quietly went to a neighboring
mining town, had bis wound dressed, and went on in
the rough life that he had led for years. Some tima
after he met his death in a peculiar manner. In a
dmnken spree be attacked a ferocious dog with a
sabre. The animal was a game one, and notwith-
Btanding the fact that Long John cut and slashed
him fearfully, he bit Mm severely. It was deter-
mined, to shoot the dog, and Long John loaded a shot-
gun with a child's marble for the purpose. The n*»xt
morning John was found shot dead, and the marble
be intended for the dog killed him. Pat Stiusou was
shot and killed in a row in Schuylkill County. Ficher
and Jack Donohne were hanged, ^nd Jack Kehoe is
certain to die by the rope in 10 days. Tbe trial of

PAKA3CX, March 28.— The National Congress
eontinnes in session in Bogota, and although manj
bills have been brought before it, none are of speciai
interest abroad. A bill was introduced to exempt
from legal responsibility tbe chiefs of the battalion
of Colombian troops who invaded the territory of
Ecuador in November last. After a warm debate
tbe bill was postponed indefinitely, thus throwing
back on the nation the recbon^bility of the %et,
which it has tried to shirk.
The United States steamer Swatara la rexxirtad «|
Csrthagena. She is dai^y expected at Colon,
Navigation on the Magdalena River is obstmcted.
The steamer Santander haa broken ^own on the
river above £1 Banco, and vrill probably be 20
oays In repairing. The steamer Werder scmek on a
rock about 24 miles above Calamar, and will prob-
ably become a total wreck. About half of her caxso
has been landed. AU naTlgation is stopped for n«
present on account of low water in tho nver.

BosiBAT, Tlmnday, Fab. 14, 1878.
fiomlMj ia TisiuUy tbe first or. the lut ottr
et India visited b^ fbs trsTeler. If he eomes ■
from Europe by wsj of tlia Ited Sea, he seaer-
ally lands at Bombay and prooeeds orarland: it
ha oomes from Amerlea by way of Japan aod
China, he lands at Oalentta and proeeeds ov<er-
Isnd. Bombay and Caleotta are the ^reat ter-
minal points for the majorltr of visitors, and
they are certainly the Alpha and Omega of
India. Time was when Madras was the first
city, bat that time was' long ago. Two
circumstances are against Madras — her
geographical position and her harbor— or,
rather, the laek of one. Nobody likes to
debark in an open roadstead, and nm a gant-
let through the surf. Caloatta lies upon the
bank of a river, at a comfortable distance from
the sea, while Bombay has a convenient harbor,
with plenty of anehorimg-ground, and quite
calm and secure, excopt daring the worst pe-
riods of the sonth-wsst monsoon. Caloatta and
Bombay have grown, while Madras has de-
clined ; each of the two great cities claims to be
larger than the other, and a stranger is some-
trhat puzzled when be listens to statements the
most contradictory from men of unimpeachable
veracity and undoubted knowledge of the topics
whereof they speak. So I will leavo the ques-
tion of importance quite out of sight, and freely
admit that, while Calcutta has a larger popula-
tion than Bombay, the latter bas more innabi-
tants than the former. Calcutta has the greater
amonnt of commerce, while Bombay imports
and exports more than Its rival. If anybody
^ r«nturti3 to assert that the above statement is
laciciiig in clearness and candor, I shall be com-
pelled to hire somebody to thrash him.
The foreign portion of Bombay is less attrac-
tive than the same '^art of Calcutta, for the
reason that the public and private bolldtngs are
lees nnmerous and greatly inferior in archi-
tecturai effect. Tbe foreign quarter is desig-
nated as the Fort, but the fort disappeared a
decade or more ago and made space for build-
ing purposes, which should have been utilized
half a century earlier. Inside of 'what was
once tbe Fort, and is so by name at present, the
buildings are closely crowded, tbe streetsare nar-
row, and the triumphs of architecture are nil The
Esplanade, as the redeemed eroond ia called,
contains some fine buildings, but the varnish of
newness has hardly dried on the eldest of them,
while tbe youngest are not yet finished, and
much ground remains untouched by the cellar-
maker or the builder. Hence to the native
eity is s stretch of half a mile quite flat and
planted with trees, and here and there a build-
ing erected or erecting — rari nanUs in gurgiia
voMto. At the end of this space you eome into
the native town, not by an approach of strag-
gling huts and low houses to prepare your
mind for the change, but plumply and suddenly,
as you step from water to land or &om land to
water. A glance tells yon where yon are ; Eu-
ropean faces are few and far between ; the shops
are native, and the crowd pressing through the
streets are as un-English as possible. Here are
Parseeswith their flowing frocks and hats which
only an illustration can clearly describe; Hin-
doos with turbans of varied shapes and colors,
some fittlDg closely to the skull and some spread-
ing almoet like umbrellas ; Moslems "with close
caps or with turbans differing from all others,
and coolies of the lower castas or no caste at
all. quite uncovered as to head, or sporting only
a thinly-wound and dirty rag. Women pass us,
some irith heads partially or wholly covered,
while others expose their faces completely to
our gaze aantpeur at sans reprocJia. Tney have
Tings on their toes as well as on their Angers,
and some of them have ankles and wrists
thickly hooped with bands of silver. Ears and
noses have a orofusion of ornaments, and if
kissing be known in India some of the nose
.^decorations must be a serious inconvenience,
ijot content with piercing the ear, after our
cidental fashion, they perforate its entire
eumference to obtain points d'appui for jewel-
ryJ and this fashion is not confined to the gen-
tler and prettier sex. Many of the men do like-
Ise ; a wealthy and intelligent native of high
ste and prominent social position, who sat op-
_ osite me at a private dinner, sported a row of
pearls on the upper part of his right ear, where
they formed an ornament unknown to Europe
or America. The women have sometimes enor-
mous ear drops, with triple holdings ; they are
fastened to the hair above the ear, and are then
attached to both the upper and lower extremi-
ties of that auricular organ. A vrise division of
labor, as the weight of the ornament is so great
that the lower part of the ear alone would be in
danger of parting company with the upper if
left to bear the ^ole burden.
The native town of Bombay is far wealthier,
handsomer, and more active than the same part
of Calcutta. In the latter the houses are gen- '
erally low and poor, in the former they are
large and have many balconies and a profusion
of glass windows that almost suggest a palace.
Feminine faces, pretty or otherwise, reward the
upward glance of the inquisitive stranger, and
by their side may be seen fat and sleek forma,
with beards indicating the dominating sex. In
the narrow and open-fronted shops yon see the
merchants squatted among their wares, as every-
where in the Fast, and in a space so confined
that it is hardly necessary for ote to rise if he
wishes to reach any article in his establishment.
Workmen of various kinds are busy ; copper,
silver, and gold smiths abound, and there
are tailors, shoemakers, barbers, locksmiths,
and the like within, sight at once.
My companion wishes to buy a chair for the
steamship voyage to Suez, and very soon ho
finds a shop, and beyond it another imd another,
where chairs are sold. Maker and vendor are
one, and that one is a Chinaman ; John has in-
vaded Bombay in fair, though not as vet in
great number, and in every stroU through the
native town we frequently encounter him. He
has almost a monopoly of the trade in bamboo
cbairs, baskets, and similar work, and he has
begun to make shoes, clothing, and other
things, to the constematiok and disgust of
others in the same line of business. When and
where will the enterprising Celestial stop 1 I
should not be Burprised to find him in Egypt
and Italy, and if he goes on in the fature as he
has gone in the past, the end of the century will
find him in every European city in sharp com-
putition with tbe inhabitants to the manner
born.
Everywhere we see the mltee-Uke hat of the
Parsees, and everywhere we And the wearers
thereof in business. They are a fine looking
race ; many of them have splendid fates, with
broad brows and keen eyes that betoken
shrewdness of no common order. The Parsees
■ came from Persia (whence their name) and set-
tled in India nearly 200 years ago j Bombay is
their chief abiding-place at present, and I am
told that they htmibor nearly 50,000 in this
rity alone. They have beea called, not Inaptly,
the Jews of Western India, uid certain it isthat
they have all the Israelite keenness for eom-
merce and are quite as hard to outwit as are the
sindsmen of Rothschild and DisraeH. Someof
:hem possess enormous wealth, and several
louses, among the finest In' Bombay, have been
oointed out to m^ as the property and homes of
Parsees. Generally they are liberal with their
money, so far as public benevolence goes, but
they sro by no means the prey of street-beggars
or of any other person who would impose on
them. Hospitals, fountains, gardens, schools,
• and the like owe their origin to Parsees, and
someof their names have become honored out of
India as well as in It. * AJ»T <» **» •£»«; ™T

most of the complexions had a brunette tinge.

Stranger* are nnelyadmittsd to the ineloeiue,
and no Parsee except the few employed about
the place may enter the towers. Through the
kindness of Mr. Cama, a wealthy and pioml-
nent Parsee, I was enabled to see the towers,
and had the advantage of his penooal gaidanee
and explanation.
We entered by a strong gateway and over a
paved path, whloh is the route of the fhneral
proeesMons. The inclosure has » high wall,
over which it is impossible to look without a
sealing bidder. The yard is perhaps two acres
in extent, and contains near tbe entrance a
building, where is an altar with the sacred fire
and a temple where funeral parties come to pray
and the priests to change their apparel after the
seryicea are over. There is a neatly-kept gar-
den here, which is tended by tbe employee of
the place, and from the windows of the temple
there is a fine view of the city, the bay, and* the
surrounding country. The other structures in
the inclosure are the famous towers, nine in
ill. simple circular structures of plastered ma-
sonry about 12 feet high and, perhaps 30 in
diameter. In the side of each is a doable
door of iron, where the bearers enter
with the bodies of the ^ead ; in this
door no visitor, whether Christian, Hin-
doo, or Parsee may enter or even look, save, as
before stated, the priests and attendants. We
were not allowed to go nearer tfaan within 20
yards of the towers, and Mr. Cama explained
that the prohibition extended to him as well as
to n*. and should he violate It he would be com-
pelled to purify himself by careful ablutions
and change of apparel. This measure was
adopted, he said, to prevent the spread of
disease, and so great is the precaution that the
priests and bearers must perform this ablution
ana change after each funeral ceremony. And
while on the subject he told me that this pe-
culiar form of sepulture was adopted, not from
any sentimental notion, but because it was
thought tbe most satisfactory. '* Hindoos bum
their dead," said be, ** but we consider fire
sacred, and therefore it would be wrong to com-
pel it to perform such an ignoble office. Tbe
earth is the producer of the fruits and vegeta-
bles upon wmch all people live, in part at least,
and the barlal of the dead In it is a defilement
and an injury. ' Cemeteries are acknowledged
everywhere to be unhealthy, and many diseases
arise from tbera, and I believe yon have oraeli
agitation concerning them in Europe and
America. When a body is exposed here it is
quickly devoured, and there are none of tbe
foul gases that arise from cremation or decom-
position, nor is the earth defiled in anyway. So
we consider this the best way to dispose of oor
dead."
As we approached the towers their uses were
pointed out. One was for murderers and sui-
cides, and was considered unconsecrated ; the
rest were alike, or so nearly so that the differ-
ences were not essential. On the tops of two
or three towers, the ones most in use, vultures
were roosting and evidently waiting eagerly for
tbe arrival of a procession. There "were, per-
haps, 50 or more — ^I did not coi^it them — and
Mr. Cama said there were others that were so
fat and heavy as to be unable to fly at all, so
that they remained constantly within the tow-
ers. When a body is brought there Is a stir
among the birds, and frequently they attack
the bearers in their eagerness to get at a corpse.
So violent are thev at times that the bearers
are armed with sticks, and use them vigorously.
An hour after a body has been placed on the
iron grating, and the bearers have retired and
closed tbe door, nothing but bones remains, and
the birds resume their places to wait for the
next arrivaL The funerals generally take
place In the morning just after stmrise, or in
the afternoon before sunset; never at night,
and rarely in the middle of the da^.
I trust I have presented this subject in aman-
ner aa slightly disagreeble as it could well be
given. In the present discussion about sepul-
ture which is now going on in varioiu parts of
the western world, the topic is not without in-
terest. I have read several accounts of tbe
Parsee method of disposing of their dead, but
as all of them are incorrect and some seriously
so, I have thought it well to devote a little
space to .the subject. So far as I have been
able to observe, the Parsees are not at all fanati-
cal on religions subjects, but they earefolly
preserve their dress and original cnstoms. and
are evidently very earnest in their raspeot for
themselyes and their ancestry. T. W. K.

Widsts made of white, blaek, or eolored net
are again in fashion. They are generally
worked with bekds, and worn over prinoesa
dresses. The "cotte demaille" ityle, trimmed
around with a rich' fringe, is also in wear.
When this is employed the skirt is trimmed to
match.
It is said that belted waists are again to be
used. This fashion is not to be desired, as it is
not nearly as graceful aa the long tight-fitting
cuirass and princess polonaise. SUrta scolloped
and pointed out on the lower part, with faille

It is iikdy that tbe half tight-fitting long
pflerines, whieb wen worn last Summer, will
continue in vogne. They have the addttion of
a large sailor eojlar, whieb almost forms a
p^erine. This style ia particularly suited to
young ladies. Small fichus, crossing in front
under a bow, will also be worn.
A noveltv in trimming ia tbe plain or chi-
cory trimming, which replaces plaltings. It
forms the heiullng of fringes. Satin loops are
arranged in the back of garments and com-
bined with shell-shaped lace trimmings. It is
probable that manv black silk garments will be
worn. A number of new designs in passemen-
terie have been brought out.
One of the new paletots is half tight-fltting.
It has fire seams dawn the back, where there Ti
a narrow plastron made of crochet passemen-
terie, beaded and covered with small, drooping,
ornaments of satin. I>own the part which
opens in front is a shell-shaped lace trimming,
with blaek satin ribbon intermixed. The lower
part of tbe garment is trimmed with fringe.
The sleeves have cuffs matching the plastron,
which is trimmed with Isee and satin ribbon.
The "tailleur" style, which had so much suc-
cess during the past Winter, has brought into
fashion several new materials. There is now
manufactured a kind of woolen goods which is ,
admirably suited to this masculine order of gar-
ment. Tbe material is all wool, like the cloths
of which trousers are made. The designs are
close checks and stripes, and the colors neutral
For the past year plastrons have been used in
every way. Tbe latest idea Is to have rich pas-
sementerie plastrons, beaded or.not, accordingto
fancy. This is considered aa an excellent idea,
and will doubtless be eagerly adopted. The
first cost is rather large, but now that passe-
menterie is in such general nse, most of these
I plastrons are so made that tbey can be sepa-
'rated and plarad on any part of the costume.
Ferns serve for trimmings around the dress,
plastron, and apron. Another very rich trim-
ming for handsome confections Is composed of
"quilles," with or without let, and covered with
olive-shaped drooping ornaments. The qnllles
are made in different si tea This sort of trim-
ming is especially suitable for visiting garments,
as tbe qniries on the back appear long and have
a stylish effect.

more in use, has brought into fashion garments
worked with dots. A very pretty model In this
style is a dolman visite, moderately long and
drawn in at the waist. The vigogne is covered
with dots intermixed with rainbow threads of
metal The borders are trimmed with a heavy
fringe corresponding with the embroidery.
This metal thread is anothernovelty. It is used
instead of beads, and replaces them admirably,
aeit requires the closest examination to distin-
gtilsh ue difference. This thread la used fur a
great many of the new trimmings, and worked
In with some of the new galloons. It is much
less expensive than gold beads.
Mother of pearl ornaments an ranch us^d.
Feathers and lewes are enriched with motherof

A beantifdl trimming for dinner toilets is
flower fdnge. Black velvet tnniquesara very
handsome when trimmed in this style. The
small drooping flowen an the only ones need
for this purpose.
The new balayense plaiting is of plaited
rached lace, extending half way np. It is very
elegant.
Blaek dresses, which are so Indispensable at
present, as they an suitable for all purposes,
are made in varied ways. The sombre appear^
ance of the suit can always be removed by
means of eolored ribbon or laoe. Colored tarla-
tan placed under blaek has a very good effect.
To make an elegant dreaa in accordance with
the present fashion two materials, plain and
fai^nne must be used. A dress of this Und
may be of handsome black f^lle, forming a
court mantle. The middle of the front pieces
is of Drocatelle. The neck trimming consists of
passementerie, and tbe same trimming borders
the brocateUe, which extends as far down as the
train. The supplementary train is covered with
small flounces alternating with fringe Uminie.
The sleeves are trimmed with passementerie,
which extends np toward the elbow.
From this point comes a brocatelle
inserted puifing. When these inserted puffings
are pr<u>erly arranged, they are very effective,
espeoUiUy when made of white lace. These are
only employed for evening dresses. Take, as
an example, a high-neck waist with a white
tulle lace fichu, trimmed with Mallnes ruffles.
From the sleeves on the elbow come the insert-
ed puffings. A graceftii combination for a
black dress suitable for a young lady consists of
a black faille princess dress, with a very narrow
and long faille plastron, both front and back,
formula kind of long V, and falling below the
waist. The waist buttons in the back against
the plastron. The tndn is added and covered
with small gathered flounces bound with faille.
The lower flounce surrounds the skirt. This
style of trimming, in a point like a T, had
been laid aaide for a short time, but has now
beea taken up again, with the difference that it
ia now made' very long. It must be in a totallj»
different shade or color from the remainder of
the dress, very light if the nmainder of the
dress is dark, and the reverse of It is light.
A deep mourning t(dlet is made in aprlneesa
dress of cacbemireandEngUsherepe. Thedress
is very tight-fitting in front. Underneath are
strings to keep the fullness in its proper place
in the back. In front is an English ehtpe plas-
tron. Tne lower' part of ths dnasis trimmed
with deep bands of enpe. Down the middle
of the back is a large crape V. The middle
seam on the lower part of the skirt opens
to make room for a crape train which is sewed
to the skirt The neck trimming consists of a
erape platting. The cuffs and reven on the
poekets are oftbe same. The bonnet matching
the suit is ot English crepe, with a soft eaown
«id« flat brim, which la trimmed with a roohed
bandean. A long enpe veil coven the whole
eoiifare and falls down the baek.
CbUdreh's dreaies vary bat little in ent; they
an still made in prineeaa diape. They differ
in appearanee oiuy br the different waysli)
wbiui they are trimmed, either with plasmns,
nvers, or scarfs. The most suitable style for
baUea is thsUoose with flat plaits, fastened to
the WBiat by meana of a belt. Thla ia dseldedly
mbn comfortable than tbe heavily-trimmed gar-
ments with which 10 many little oBasanirow
hardened. The blouse can be madeqoite pretty
by the ehoiee of a handsome nuterial, such as
white cadiemire, whieb should be lined with
Hgbt Uannel. The Skirt is trimmed with em-
faroldeiy or laee whieb tan* below the garment

Avery jnettyway of dressing the hair is
eatlad the " ooUhue Oreeqne." It is onrled
lightly over tbe fonheadanddnwn back on
the aide. On the top an curls, placed eross-
wiae, and in between ate three bands of daisies
' and peart beads, fonninc a diadem. The hair
is oombed up from the neck.
The new coUTun for young ladles, called the
" Prineeaa of Wales," consists in arranging
tbe hair in such a way that it does not fall be
low the nape of the neck, with the exception of
a few stny hairs. The hair is waved and
arranged in a small chignon. The top of tbe
head Is then adorned with bands of flowen, rib-
bons, or beads, aooordlng to the occasion for
whieh the hair is dressed. The Prineeaa of
Wales Is to be credited with originating this
fashion.
Fichus are now worn in the morning over
"matintfes." They an made of flne linen, mus-
lin, or foulard, so as to match the cap. One of
these fichus is made in a small double shawl
without any point ia the back, forming a
turned-down collar. The borden are trimmed
with lace. The ends of the fichu an crossed
under a ribbon bow.
A new way of making sets of lingerie consists
of a turned down collar, with cuffs to mateh,
covered with naall lace rafiles. This panue is
beautiful when worn over an in-door dress.
The plain princess dress exacts this kind of
lingerie.
Some of the demi-saison bonnets an of
pnlfed silk shirred on the border of the brim
and cape. The shirring is of a different color
from the remainder of tiie bonnet The feathers
and leaves match the shirring. The double-
faced satin ribbon strings are in the two shades.
Leaves embroidered wiUi sold are now much
employed by modistes. The most suitable
flowen for use With these leaves are tea-roiea.
Silver ^oon and golden and pearl, beads an
also among the ornaments for bonnets. Satin
bonnets, to be very faabionable.must be made to
nuteh tbe suits. Black satiia bonnets trimmed
with gold tinsel and blaftk feathen are very ele-
gant and saiuble for wear with any col-
ored drees. A pretty shape is the diadem, with
Marie Stuart front, eondsting of a very full
garland of small flowen.
Artiflelal leaves are now combined with real
greens. Small dried fruits and grasses are
dyed and placed among the flowers. Feathen
are stHi used. They are sometimes taken
around the bonnet Feather mentonnlins are
f estened over the waist by means of a bow, an
ornament or a flower.

In looking over an old copy of the Notfotk
SeposUory, published at Deadham in 1803 by Her-
man Hann, the following rhrmad advartlsament
brought to mind soma reminlseeneei oC tbe author,
who, for maay years, was a prominent aad usatul
citizen of Norfolk County. Samasl Temple, born
in Orenge, Mass., May, 1770, was eradaatad from
Dartmouth Oollasa. Ha married tha half-sister of
the lata Sath Mann, of Randolph, and settled in Dor-
cheater. Ha was an axoellant teacher, a raady writer'
and tha author of laTeral standard school books,
among which were Tenuis' sArithmetie aod a primary
reader entitled Ths CMU> Assistant both
of which enjoyed great popularity. He was
also tha author i^ sevsnU mnue books. Later In life
Jia kept for several yasrs a eoontiy store in a build.
lag then standing on a portion of the site of ' ' Thayer
Tavern," at I>orehafet«r and Milton Lower Jdllls.
Ha afterward ramoved aeroas tha bridge into Milton,
where be died in 1815. Ha was tha father of Han-
anlab sad William F. Temple, prominent citizens
of Dorrhestar, and nandfsther m Thomas F. Tem-
ple, the present Kegtstar of Dsads for Soffolk Coun-
ty. Tlie arch alluded to In tha advertisement was

in letters of gold tne following taiicriptlon: "We

1798." Theiasl and spirit wlthwUch tha event
waa ealabrated la atUl trash In tha traditiona of the
locality. ■ One of tha most pxominant men eoncemad
in tha arecfloo of tha arch was Q^>t John LQlle,

fact that Kldd'i money is always In the other care.
A TiKcs rape iter Went out to Passaic reoantly to

Mr. CarrolljD. Wright has recently presented

consnlted, slnd there was no contradic-
tion by one otl what- waa aaid by the
other. There baa fean everrwhere a redaction in
wagea varytegl from 1 per cant, te tha carpet in.
dojtry to 15l 2-3 I per cent in the manu-

range of the topisa indicated by tha law aadar which
thb hoard acta, it haa aoeh an imj^ortant bearing
nnOB tha eooditloa ot tbe race that a eomptehaulTe
representation of the subject was deemed advisable.
The flgnrat eontalnsd te ths paper were taken
from the centns of the Sute for 1875, and,
summarized, they are as follows: There wan 440

95,586 foreign bom: 60,485 widowed— 37,100

1,040 native and 129 foreign bom ; a total ot 309,-
S20mothers— 190,311 natlTe and 119,209 foreign
bom. The total number of married women who
were not mothers was 89.239, of whom ()4,220
wen natln bore and 25,019 foreign bom. The
final section Is devoted to a consideration of the na-<
tiritlsa, aces, aad illiteracy ot farmers, skilled work-
men, and nnskillod laboreim. It ia therete stated
that it woold be useless to attempt an approximatiou
to the number of persons of foreijta birth and
Immediate foreign descent in the Sute, for
the reason that tbe record of emigration
famishes no basis for comp.<iriton or oompu-
tstlon. Coold the facta necessary for this purpose
oe obtained, much light would be shed upoa the sub-
jeettof vitid statistics and Uiiteraey. and many vexed
qu^loha in relation to the comparative btrtb rate
and death rate of our native born and those of for-
eign birth or foreign parents wonld be set st rest as
also the question ot the comparative fecundity of
native-born mothers and those of fonijni birth or

LETTERS TO TEE EDITOB. ■
THE PACIFIED FIRE-EATEB
TAXING MORTGAGED REAIi ESTATE.
To the Xditor of the IFe^York nniM:
A bill, as reported in your issoe of the 4tli
iost., bu DAssed the State Senate and gone to the
Assembly for concnrrentre, entitled "An act for tbe
relief of tax-pavers ownins mortgaeed real estate.**
A more appropriate title would be " Ad act to com-
plicate sad increase tha bnrdena of xeal-«stat«
owncTS."
Section 1 proTidet tbat the amount of the mort-
gage shall be deducted from the value of the proper*
ty. Section 3 provides that the amonnt of tbe mort-
sacte shall be assessed against the mortgagee, and If
the tax on said monga^e ia not p^d, the owner of
the property shall pay the same, apd deduct it from
the Interest or principal of said mortipace when the,
same shall become dae and cayable. Section 0 pro-
Tidea that this act shrdl not apply to corporationn-
The Impracticable cbaraeter of the proposed law
must be apparent to every owner of mortgaged real
estate. It is well • known thiit the greater share of
the mortgages on real estate in this City Is held by
corporations, while another large portion of mort-
gage loans is owned by non-residents, our own citi-
zens mnklng such investments to a very limited ex-
test, on account of their liability to personal tax.
Then again, 7 per cent, per annum has always been
the ruling rate of interest until witbtn the last two
years, when a supply of foreign capital has entered
Into competition with corporations and reduced the
rate of intepest on mortgage loans to 6 per cent.
Kow, if the money-lender is-to have 2is- per cent,
tax deducted therefrom, leaving him with a net in-
come of but 319 per cent, on his investment, he will
call for his loan, if due. Immediately after this biU
tnkes effect; and If the mortgaee is not due, the
mortgageor may rest assured he will hare to pay
iiut aa soon as it is due. The result will be that no
mdividoal, resident or non-resident, will loan any
money on mortgage; conseqnentljr, borrowers will
have to rely on corporations, and, in the absence of
competition, the rate of iatcrest will be advanred to
7 per cent. In addition to this will be the expenses
incarred by the real-estate owners in chancing their
loans, such aa brokers' commissions and lawyers'
fees and dlsbtirsements, unless an agreement is en-
tered into that the mortgageor shall pay the taxes,
as provided iu section 5.
Where the relief is to eome from. I would like the
advocates of the measure to explain.
REAL ESTATE OWXER.
New-Yobe, Saturday, April 6, 1S78.
To the Editor of the JTctd- Torle T\me» .-
My attention has been called to a bill passed
by the State Senate, and said to be for the benefit of
real estate owners. By tbe terms of this bill all tax
asseesoTs shall dednct from tbe assessed mine of
erery piece of real estate tbe amount of any mort-
gage tbat may be npon it, and- tha tax upon the
amount of such mortgage if not discharged by the
bolder within 80 days, must be naid by the real
estate owner and deducted from tbe Interest on the
mortgage. And this no matter where the mortgagee
may reside.^
It woold seem as if the entire nature of » mort-
gaee were unknown at Albany. A man lends money
to another, taking his bond for Its repayment with
interest, and as collateral security is given a mort-
gage upon certain real estate. Is not the bond, even
though thus secured, still personality, and can the
law eoQsti^tionally authorise one county to tax
gersonal property held In another or in a foreign
tate ?
One law says that a man shall In no ease reeeiTe
more than 7 per cent-, and now another says that
the Cities of New- York and Brooklyn shall deduct
therefrom abont 3 per cent., leaving, at most, 4 per
cent, for the unfortunate mortgagee, or less, if the
mortgaso were made at a lower rate. A eapitaUst
living in the country who haa foolishlv Intrusted his
money to a City borrower may sudoenly find himself
almost without income until such time as he can call
in his loans, which he wonld do at the earliest oppor-
tunity,
A clause of this bill pTorides thst it shall not ap-
ply to corporations, why, is not stated. Probably
It is to relieve the unwashed depositors in savings
banks, &c, by aiming over their heads, or there may
be a better reason still. Would it not be well for
some gentleman like Mr. Andrews to undertake the
Instruction of Senators preparatory to their election
tooffleef
Political economists tell ns that the only property
properly taxable is what Is tangible or visible. If a
system based on that theory were adopted, all rates
of Interest, all rente, &&, would at once adjust them-
selves accordingly, the rents risliu; and Interest fall-
ing, && A mere evidence of debt is not property 1^
a taxable sense, not can any legislation properly
render it such. If it be not possible to adopt this
standard in its entirety, why not at least declare all
mortcages exempt from taxation In the hands of the
mortgagees, a tax upon tiiem harix^ been already
paid by the mortgagor.
This would be a Just way of BToidlng double taxa-
tion, and would work no Violence to those now hold-
ing mort$:ages upon which borrowers have Agreed,
and were once otily too eager, to pay 7 per cent, and
all taxes. Capitalists by such a law could afford to
lower the rates of interest upon future loans by
reason of their own exemption, nnd the total cessa-
tion of lending npon bond and mortgage, which the
present law may IutoItc^ would be avoided.
All loans upon mortgage now in existence, whether
with or without a tax elatise, were made with a cer-
tain definite arrangement as to interest and tfxes,
and this, toother ^th the amount of risk incurred,
tras taken into account by tbe lender In making his
loan. To applv the law now proposed at Albany to
su^ existing .contracts as these would be to work
the most manifest injustice, and be also a most un-
warrantable kiterferenee with private rights.

The Governor then reviewed at some Isaglb th*
history of the oampaign, the oeenpatloa of fha
State-house, and tbe dangers whldi at «a* time
threatened to faiTolve the country ta * eomssonnda;
he recalled the facts connected with th* blstoxy oC

erally that be was compellM to stop Uie eoOsetfcm

«142,O0O1nall. Hisownbeavy reaponstUlity aad

^* When the Legislature adjourned I was left wfttovt
a single State officer of our ticket installed ta oBeSb
The State-house was In the x>osaeesion of UnUed
States troops, and Chamberlain was In the **rT*1"V
Chamber guarded by their bayonets, aad with evecT
one of his officers in their respective departBMnta. I
was left alone, like a mariner in aa nnksown *e*
without chart, compaas, or experiene*. X had noth-
ing to guide me bnt mv hope for South OaroUna wid
my reliance In the justice of Almighty God. I kaew
that one situEle false step would zoake us loss all w%
had fought for ; that if we committed ?"l*tnkirs thm,
the evil results would be irreparable. I had not tbs
Legislature or estate officers to help me, aad had to
rely on my own judgment as to what was t^c^t. If
I made mistakes, bear In mind tbat I was worUng
for the sole purpose of trying to redeem South Caro-
lina, and had no aid. After I called to my assist-
ance those whom yon elected with me. I say to yon
that if I made any mistake Simpson and Oonncc
snd Yoomans and Hagood and Molae aad
Leaphart made mistakes too. From the day-
of the election until this preeent time there has been
no single question or pledge involving tbe shadow ol
a difference between us. If mistakes were made we
all shared in them, and I koo-w tbat the people are
willing in their abundant chari<y to fon^t the errocfl
tn the effort to do good for South Cuollna. [Ap>
plans*.] Now," be continned, "there is anothes
point I wish to speak to you about beeanse titers
have been mnttennes all over tbe North indicating
thxt we had made some eort of bar^cain by which we
went into office. I tell yon in reply, and tell yon ttie
solemn truth, tbat there was not a shadow of a bar-
gain, compromise, or tmderstandtng even, with any
one on tbe face of this earth looking to a eompro>
mise of the rights of the people of Souvh Carolina."
The Governor next recounted the drcamstanoea el
his visit to WsAfaington and bis iatervirw wltn PresV-
dent Hayes. On this latter point be waa equally
plain in regard 10 chai|ces of compromise. ** I went
to Washington, " he said, " when invited there by the
President, and. after having first written to hhn that
I had nothing to aslc I went out of respect for him
and his high position. When I met him I repeated
to him, ' I have nothing to ask of you except to re-
move th<^se troops ont of the State-house, beeanse It
is in direct violation of tbe Constitution tbat tbey
profane that place. I ask yon to remove them, and
if my Government Is not strong enoogh to stand let
it fall.* I do Mr. Hayes the justice to say tbat he
bad too much respect for himself, the people of
ISonth Carolina, and me to propose even aeompro-
mise or anythiiuE like it. And as there
was no comptomise with the President thst* was
none with OLr predecessors in office. I have never
spoken to Mr. Chamberlain bnt once, and never ex-
pect to speak to him ag^n ; and I tell yon now
that if that committee hi^ been able to €nd the evi-
dence implicating him with those fmuds. be irould
have been sent for to stand his tnsl, and all tbs
leaders of that r«rty who may be proved guilty shall
have to come here and stand their trials before ths
people of South Carolina, that we may show to ths
world the evidence ot their actions. 3
shall have them tried. even If tbey are
pardoned an hour after conviction, for It is
risht tbat tbey should be tried. Bnt while
I think the leaders, tbo» who so misled
and corrupted our colored people, should be pun-
ished. I confess that I think now tbat the wlseal
statesmanship is in tbe lai^est amnesty. We want
peace; we want It here, and we want the United
States to stop the indictments against our own peo-
ple; and I believe. If we can give general amnesty,
except to the leaders here, it will be reciprocated by
the President, and W€y shall have like amnesty foi
our own people, who stand charged with riot and vio-
lating the revenue laws. I want the men who have
been driven from our State to come back, and the
carpet-baggers to stay away forever. [Applause.]
" And while I am on that subject it may not be
improper for me to touch on the national polities ol
the country. I do not think it is just, or right, 01
manly to tw denonn^ng President Hayes as a fraud.
I voted against him, did all 1 could against hiai, and
told him so in his presence, when I> addressed thoo'
sands of people on that Western trip. There was
fraud in tbat election, but President Hayes was aot
Implicated in that fraud, and he did what any otbcz
man In America would nave done in his position.
He did not propose the Electoral CommisslotL His
Democrats proposed It. And, while I speak for Mr.
Hayes, I desire to sar for myself now that when
tbat commission was Arst formed I was the only maa
in South Carolina who declared that we would
be cheated ont of our election. Hayes' aad
Tilden's claims were submitted to that commission,
which decided by a strict party vote — 8 to 7—
that Hayes was elected. Mr. Hayes could do nothing
eli>e but'take his place, and if be had not taken H,
Wheeler or Ferry wonld have done so, aikd each one'
w-oald have been worse than the other. And afaice
Mr. Hayes has taken that place he haa shown tdaweU
a man willing to rise above t)arty, and, I>empecat as
I am, I will sustain him as long as he walks on titti
line. Tbey may proclaim that I am not a Demociafti
bnt I will support him as long as be continnes to ob-
serve the Constitution, because he is the first Prest
dent of the United States who bas done so tiaoe tbe
war!"
The Governor a^xt commended Atideisott'ORmtT
for setting a good example in the -matter of primary
elections, and then said, in reference to independent
candidates : " Let your men go Into these pvinmn
elections and choose the best men yon can find,
whether they want to be candidates or not. Make
them CO to the Le^slature, and don't let any * la-
dependents' mn under any eirenmstanees. An Inde-
Sendent now. though he be tbe ablest man, in South
aroUna, devoted to tbe State, and willing to do any-
thing for her, yet if he Is an Independent now. um
makes us run the risk of losing the State or county,
is the worst enemy of South Carolina. I say to you,
and through you to the people of Sooth Carouna,
that'the contest this > ear is to bo made for the Le*
^slatnre. There will t>e the great point of tbe bat-
tle, for I feel perfectly sure that when your conven-
tion meets ft will place tbe people of the Stats '
squarely on the platform adopted in l876~-tbe plat*
form which declares there shall be eqtial laws for aU
the people ot South Carollaa. equal justice, and equal
rights: If you will plant yourselves oaee
more on that platform : if you will nominate
a conservative ticket, the Republicans will not
oppose yon. You will find that for tbe
flist time in years they are willing to let the
State ticket co in without opposition. And tf dda is
done, I say to you I believe it will be the gTaadeat
triumph ever achieved^ on this continent. It will
show to the world that aftertwo years of Demoeratie
rale the colored people, rerocniiing that they have
been protected, are willing to accept and support the
Democratic ticket. It will be the longest step over
made on this continent toward solving tbe qaestSon
which has pernlexed the whole people— ^e retire
positions of the two races in this country. Bnt I say
that, much as I value success, 1 believe it Is better to
fail in trying to do right than to succeed in doing
wrong. ' ' [ Appi anae. j
The Governor then briefly reiterated the pledges
made in the last campaign, and challenged an^man
to point to one that bas been broken or toshow
where be had deviated from their letter or sblrit, *' I
have stood squsrely on them." he said. " and t intend
to do so to the end. I intend to walk in the path th*
Democratic Party in South Carolina bas blasod ou*
forme. I shall go on in spite of criticism, deanaei*.
tlon, rumors, and whatever may be said. I eaoDca
turn to the risht or left. I have no political aspir»>
tlons— none under the sun. I . want nothing. X
woold not give my place now in the hearts of tha
people of Sonth Carolina for the position of Prsst
dent of the United States. Yod, my old friends aad
comrades In war. have f^ven me Infinitely more tbaa
I ever asked for, and I don't want to be regarded la
any sense as a candidate agaln< I don't waaH
to stand in the way of any ambitious man. If
yon can find any one who will do better for
South Carolina than I. I will gladly give bim my
place. [Cries of 'We doit't want him.'] I knov thiU
there have been crave charge* made agidastme, but
I have no time to devote to answering thossu Con-
scious of my own integrity, relying on th* rectita^*
of my ptirposes, trusting to ttie juoEmeDtnt tb* peo-
ple of South Carolina. I have passed them by as Mia

erected a monument to 'Time, the YindieaLtor.* I
am willing to submit my record to that inexorable

to tbe old men who sent their sons to eem nades
me, to the boys who are soon to take our pksess, aad
above all to the women of South C^troltaa!" fTre.
mendotu and long continued cheering aad hnrrahs.]
When silence was restored, the Governor eon-
tinned: "I am willing to leave it in the hands of
this people, among whom I bare lived and for whom
I have tried to do all my duty. I nui say in the
presence of this vast crowd, and in the jiMaeinje of

ury that his opeta boat did not afford him. In
short, If he had had a canoe he could have
made a comfortable voyage In much less tUie
and with infinitely less labor than 'were ez-
pendisd in his voyage In a paper row-boat
While Sir. Bishop'* book wlU attract a multl-
tttde of readers, they ought not to be left under
the delusion that his voyage bore any resem-
blance to a canoe erulse. ^ There Is no sport
ntore delightful than canoe cruising, but it any
one imagines that Mr. : Bishop's book has any-
thing to do with canoe eraistng he . will -tnaka
it serlons mistake. The labor, discomfort, and
danger which he incurred could all have been
avoidisd had he used a canoe instead of a row-
boil Of the fascinations of true canoeing he
knows nothing, or he would i never have
dreamed of traveling v in . a ,^ row-boat ;
aiid It is earnestly to be hoped that - the public
will notregard his account of his clumsy and
nnoomtOrtable method of cmiaing as an ac-
count of a genuine canoe cruise. ' Had he called
hia book the "Voyage of the Paper Bow-boat,"
It would have deserved nothing but praise ; bat
be has given it a name to which it has no right
and which will misltod hundreds of readers and
prejudice them against canoeing. « It should be
mentioned that Mr. Bishop is in error when he
■ays that the New-Tork Canoe Club has adopted
the Nsutilua model. > About half of the canoes

Here ia one of the many ontcomes of Eng-,
land's wrongs to Ireland. The nation of shop-}
keepers has kept Ireland in a turmoil much
more because she consists, or consisted, of shop-
keepers than becaosa these had any ^grudge
against the sister island. Fronde' has shown;
how questions of money-niaklng were ' at the
bottom of the oppressive laws whieh beggared
Ireland, just as questions of inoney roused the
Aiaierlean colonies to revolt. • But^ - notwlth-i
Mutdihg the ^onhlty of England's. crime*
agiUnst beland, no sane person Is going to over-i
took the fact that the Irish have themselves to '
blama for their position. Such a quick-witted
tsc«, and one so warlike, would long ago have
cleared the country of the Saxon if it had not
been lacking in certain characteristics which
the Saxon posaesaea In reading Mr. Clancy's
Uvely accounts of the various Insurrections In
beland, one thread is seen going through every
knot In torn. It is that of lukewarmness, sns-
pielon, treachery, or whatever else it may be
called, a thing; at any rate, which resulU In
^tltttng np every association, and ruining every
plan. The leaders who are not lukewarm ar e
jailodit of each other ; the men who are the
most brave az)s the most foolhardy. Apparently,
the laea Is not able to stand shoulder to shoulder
ia the contest with the Saxon ; consequently,
the dullard wins.
There Is an aspeet of the eontinaal Irritation
between Saxon and Celt which is much over- -,
looked. The Cdi seems to be hardly -fit to
stand aloncb . At any rate he becomes a much '
thote tottnded bharaeter by having a mixture
of Saxon blood. It will be found that most of
the proinlnent blah battlots celebrated in his-
tory are strongly tainted vrith the detested
0ax(m strain. It would therefore be suicidal
tor beland to break away from England. , Her
obly hope is to begin with self-linprovement ; :
■a aoon aa she knows enough to toe the value
»t adneation and onion, she 'wlU easily wrest
bom England, in Parliament, as much power
aslfe good for her. Meanwhile books of this
kind may or may not have a tendency to hasten
ttaday of triumph of Irish cleverness over
Sngilsb selfishness. It certainly has some in-
ilnanea In the direction of stlrtlng np strife
bettraMi tha two nationalitlea.

Hermann took the hlstoricdl^r What may be

At a recent meeting of the Academy of
Beiances, Parla, H. Leooq da Boisi>annraa aubmltted
a bar, aaheet, aad.aoma crystals ot tha new metd
gallinm. It la harder than lion, bnt it mdta under
iheheatot the finger. Its fceexing point is about
30°. li Is proposed to use it for a tharsaometer,
ranging up to red heat. About 4,300 kllogmmmes
ot Bensbsig blende had to be treated to obtain
about 62 grammes of tha metal. It adharsstogiass,
aad is vary brittle. Its color nearly resemUaa that
of sted, and Its crystals are octahedra.
C. G. limilaton, who bOs bod ample opportunity to

have beeii the marked exeepHon. Among horses and
cattle not one caoa directly fatdhaaeoake to hia
knowledge. In man, ont ot 11 caacs then were three
deaths, bnt two of which he thinks were pnbably
due to ignorance or improper attention. During the

The Signal Service Bureau report indicates
ffur to-day, for &« Middle Atlantic States,
dear iceather, joHowed by increasing cloudi-
ness, north-westerly winds backing to warmer,
southeasterly, rising, followed by faUing,
barometer.
If the machinery of the Post OfSce for
transmitting money-orders and registered
letters should suddenly stop, the people
may understand that the Democratic House
has failed to provide the money needed for
that service. Last year there was danger
that this useful branch of the postal service
nrost cease operations on account of the lack
of printed blanks. That difficulty was taja-
Jorarily tided over; but the same obstruc-
tion is again met. The House Appropria-
tions Committee have deliberately cut down
the estimates of the Post Office Department,
and the money for printing the required
blanks is nearly exhausted. Meanwhile, a
bUl oontaining anappropriation of $35,000
for tJtiis purpose is pending between the two
branches of Congress, and the Democratic
managers of the House manifest the ut-
most indifference to the condition of affairs.
The fraudulent practice of refusing appro-
priations for the maintenance of the legiti-
mate service of the Government is pro-
ducing exasperatifig resititiw'The House
Appropriations Committee are pointing
trith pride to the fact that they have cut
down the Postmaster-General's estimates
$3,237,398 ; but the Country must needs
suffer inconvenience from this dishonest
eourse. It is not even poor economy ; it is
an Tittempt to make political capital by re-
time.
fusing ^ pay expenses which are necessary
and which must be paid at some f atui'P jested is at least doubtful. Much the better
plan, as it seems to us, would be to leave
"my Southern policy" unnoticed, except so
far as events may compel some definite
action in regard to it. Events of this nature
have yet to. transpire ; meanwhile there is
ao necessity for touching it, since it is
one of those accomplished facts which
nothing short of revolution can now change.
A recital of maters connected with it
would be opportune only as the basis of a
formal indictment preferred against the
President, and though this.may some day be
in order, it is not a thing that should be wan-
tonly precipitated. The President himself
may justify it hereafter, but at present the
party could not gain anything by its adop-
tion. The isolation of the President and
the unpopularity of the Administration are
undoubted ; they are tolerated merely, not
trusted implicitly nor supported ardently in
any quarter. But there are large numbers
of Republicans who, while not attempting
to explain or vindicate the President's man-
ner of settling the Southern question, will
not sanction any attempt to reopen it or
any scheme for making it the ground of
attack. If the unity of the party is to be
preserved, this circumstance must be frankly
recognized. He wUl be an unwise man,
however, who ventures to use it as a pre-
text for any expression of opinion that may
be perverted into an indorsement ot^e
President's course. The construction put
upon the vague declaration of the New-
Hampshire Convention operates against a
■While Mr. Wood is Waiting for an op-
portunity to defend and explain his Tariff
bill, it receives a solid shot from the Bureau
of Statistics. An examination of the bill
by the officers of the bureau shows that if
it had been a law in operation during the
fiscaLyear ending June 30, 1877, the total
revenue produced under it would have
bee«i $122,OCO,000. The revenue actu-
ally collected during that period was
$131,000,000. There is something
wK)ng about 2tfr. Wood's figures. He has
promised that his bill, if it becomes a law,
■ball yield an annual revenue of $150,000,-
OOO. Unless the Bureau of Statistics
have made a great miscalculation, Mr.
Wood's promises would come so far short of
being realized that we should have a falling
oS in the Customs dues of $28,000,000,
and the day of resumption would be inevi-
tably postponed.
It is asserted on Democratic authority that
the caucus nominee for Door-keeper of the
House is a man of stalwart strength of char-
acter. If' this is true, the Democratic
members are certain to be disappointed.
The trouble with the Door-k^per has
been that the members had not strength
of character stalwart enough to keep them
from forcing their " strikers" and follow-
ers upon the officers of the House.
If the Door-keeper resists the pres-
sure which the Democratie members
br^g to bear on him, he will be ao-
ctised of " violating his pledges." So long as
file Demooratio notion that official positions
'»re to be peddled out as rewards for per-
sonal political services ia in vogue, the
scandals which disgrace the House wQl con-
tinue. In Ohio, the party is more candid
'than in Washington. The Democratio ma-
jority in the lower branch of the Legisla-
toreof that State have openly demanded
thetr "share" of the appointments made in
the official management of the State Peni-
tezitiary. ^^^.^^^^^^^^
Congressman Smunoex, having been oen-
vured by some of his own constituents for
Toting with Qen. Bdtixb in the Dean-Field
election contest in th« House, has written a
long letter iielmSag kiios«lf. He atKoes
the oMe ovar agidB iaotdw tadiow thathe
«Miidbt,1kitBini»inMi^iMb.«adtiMtl«WBoIiaiaiit tlwtlMkaaaDogintadto
all'^ho voted to keep Fnto in liis seat were
wrong. Mr. Sfrihoer, with his aeoat>
tomed lurid riietoiie, adds that th«
effort " to count Dbah ont was a
part of the general conspiracy to aecnre
the House of Bepresentatlvea, as wdl
as the Presidency, to the BepnUioaa
Party." This reckless statement wiU
probably be gratefully received by Mr.
ClabkboxN. Potter and the few other
Demoerats who voted against Dean in the
Housp. Possibly, however, Sp^ikoxr pro-
poses in this way to aeconntfor the deter-
mination of the iqanagers of his party to
exclude aQ Bepnblieans whose seats artf
contested by Democrata This is Spbinger's
plan for checkmating a "general conspir-
acy." '
The Senate Public Lands Committee, in
their search for the equities of the HcGar-
rahan claim, to the exclusion of the legal
technicalities involved, have encountered at
the outset a curious and irreconcilable con-
flict of testimony. The claimant has as-
serted that a patent to the land in contro-
versy was issued to him. He has produced
the affidavit of President Lincoln's clerk to
sign land warrants, positively asserting that
such an instrument was duly executed in
1S63. On Saturday, various officials from
the General* Land Office testified that the
warrant in question was not executed,
an order from the Secretary of the Inte-
rior having forbidden it. A copy of this
order was produced in evidence, and, as if
to clinch the matter, the incomplete patent
was exhibited. The clerk, who alleges that
he signed the President's name to the pat-
ent in accordance with usage, declares
that the unsigned document thus shown dif-
fers in some essential features from that
which he distinctly remembers having
signed. If McGarbahan is right, he is
the victim of a conspiracy by which his own
complete patent was spirited away and an
imperfect document substituted. Other-
wise, the^ officials in the Land Office are
right, and the clerk is wholly wrong.
A tone slightly less warlike pervades the
European news this morning. There if a
rumor that the retirement of Prince
Gortschakofe wUl be made an occasion
for reconciling Russia with the rest of
Europe. A Russian newspaper has been
disciplined for inciting war; and Gen.'
Iqsatiefp, it is reported, will be sent
back to Vienna for a fresh attempt to secure
Austrian neutrality, or, at least, to prevent
an offensive alliance with Great Britain.
Meantime, there is some hope of renewing
the negotiations for a congress of the
powers. ^^^^^^^^^^^^
TSE PABTT AND ITS POLICY.
Neither the National nor the Congrcts-
sional Committee can be held responsible
for the feonference of those of their mem-
bers who met informally the other evening
to consider the position and policy of the
Republican Party. Nor would it be fair to
hold any of the persons present to a strict
accountability for criticisms and sugges-
tions that are reported on hearsay testi-'
mony and in an obviously incompl ete form.
And yet the meeting has a significance
which is certainly not lessened by the tenor
of reported remarks whose substantial ac-
curacy is attested by the known views and
purposes of the speakers to whom they are
ascribed. Everything connected with the
affair betokens the chaos to which the party
has been reduced, — the differences that pre-
vail among its prominent men, the embar-
rassing relations that have grown out of the
atjtitude of the President and the conduct of
his Administration, and the want of heart
and purpose that is apparent whenever
plans affecting the future of the party are
under consideration.
It is necessary to draw a broad line
between that unreasoning anger which,
denouncing the President as a traitor to his
party, proposes to drive him out unceremo-
niously, and that more resti-ained feeling of
disappointment, not unmixed with con-
tempt, which condemns his coarse and
refuses to accept responsibility for its eon-
sequences. The bitterness that exists is
intelligible ; the expediency of giving effect
to it in the extreme way that has been sug-
repetition of that method of purchasing
peace within the party. The minority
should be content if the majority forbear.
They can unite only upon a policy of in-
difference, leaving the Administration to
find what eomf ort it can in its present ex-
traordinary position, and leaving the party
unfettered by responsibility for a President
whose sympathies with it are intangible
and whose proceedings have not earned its
approvaL
These taetics are not applioable to the
objections that are urged against the Presi-
dent's tortuous path in the direction of civil
service reform. He can blame only himself
and his official advisers if upon this subject
he encotmters a perpetual sneer. His pro-
fessions were so loud and explicit that a re-
membranea of them renders his perform-

claimed, the negative on«»aiKHi» piatRn^M
scoondreb had no place. His aims wen
loftier, sad his Buudms more worthy «f
prsise. By ooatrwt, his prastiee is con-
demned. The earnest aiVMates of the re-
form, who foimd. in- ]fr> Hates' pledges
soorees of hope and o«ofidanee, are £»^
gosted. They cannot receasile hi% mess-
nres with his avowed prinoiples, nor find ex-
cuses for his flagrant disregard of the pro-
fessi<ma that helped him at Cincinnati and
afterward. They have come to the ooncln-
sion that Mr. Hates does not know .what
civil service reform means, or that he is un-
equal to the task he' assumed. Either of
these snppositiona precludes any general
indorsement, or any positive faith in tbe
future. The only coarse left open to genuine
reformeis of this class is to treat each ap-
pointment on its merits, giving the Presi-
dent heli> when he deserves it, bat 'indulg-
ing no more nonsense on the strength of
his fine words, A still greater practical
misfortune is the succor indirectly given
by the President to the old mana-
gers of the party machine. They sneer,
as well they may, at removals and appoint-
ments made by this model reformer, and ask
if this is what reform amounts to T Their
own tactics are made more decent by colii-
parison irith the doings of the President,
who thus strengthens the corrupt system
which he 'was expected to destroy. Now, in
shapingits plans for the- next campaign, the
Republican Party . cannot safely overlook
these grounds of dissatisfaction. The Pres-
ident has forfeited much respect, and his
Administration lias descended to a common-
place level, not because they have resisted
Senatorial pretensions to the control of
patronage, but because they have been false
to the standard maintained by the party
during the Presidential^ contest. Only in
one 'way, therefore, can the party act
worthily or consistently. It must rebnk'
the President by an explicit reaffirmation of
prinoiples to which it is irrevocably commit-
ted, and by pledging itself to their enforce-
ment when a stronger man shall have taken
his place.
Equally straightforward must be the
party's resolve respecting the financial
question. A Icnotty question we admit that
it is, and one more pregnant with danger to
the party than either of those which are
causes of quarrel with the Administration.
The differences are so great that a speaker
at the recent conference is reported to have
proposed " as a solution of the difficulty to
formally turn over the subject to the
Congressional districts for settlement
there, each district electing a man
of its own financial views." The
proposition was submitted once before
in connection with the tariff question, but
tre have never heard it commended as the
dictate of honest principle or sagacious
statesmanship. Unless the Republican
Party meets the financial dangers of the
time in a very different spirit it will fail,
deservedly. The perils that threaten
the public credit, that undermine
sound finance, and render confidence
almost impossible, will not be . over-
come by a timid, temporizing policy.
The forces to be overcome are organized
and aggressive. The sc^alled Nationa!
Party, deriving its strength from the green-
back and repudiation elements in the Demo-
cratic and Republican Parties, is a reality
which no prudent man will try to belitU^
Other evil influences may be less formi-
dable, butthey are sufficiently serious to ex-
cite apprehension. Is the Republican Party
to be noncommittal where these matters
are concerned T Is it to repeat the Ohio
experiment and trifle 'with Communism,
with inflation, and with -the advocates of a
debased currency and qualifled repudia-
tion T Or shall it prove itself equal to its
record and the occasion by a bold declara-
tion of the prinoiples that are essential to
the security of property, the maintenance
of sound finance, and the restoration of the
confidence which cowardly counsels would
utterly destroy f

was incapable, too, of sharing that common
English prejudice that the naval success of
one power, or, its new eommereiiil oppor-
tonities, formed anv danger to Great
Britain. In the broad 'view of his school
the well-being and growth of one nation
' meant the prosperity of other nations, and
Russia a leading commercial power' was
only the better customer for England,
O^jown people share in these views of
Cobdek, but they go further. They regard'
the very existence of Turkey (as it has
been) as a burden and curse on Eastern
Europe. They do not find in her rule of
600 years a single benefit or blessing which
she hi» conferred on the unhappy provinces
which she has governed. On the contrary,
they see those naturally fine regions drained
by bad government of everything which be-
longs to progress and prosperity. They
would consider Russian rule in Bulgaria and
the Balkan Peninsula infinitely prefe|able
to the Ottoman. But they are not com-
pelled to 'choose between the two, believing
that Christian and self-governing States will
be founded on the Lower Danube which will
be a blessing to their own population and
to the world. They cannot but re-
gard the effort by the English to
prop up the fallen despotism at the
Gk>lden Horn and to renew, what must be,
the oppression of ages, over the Ottoman
provinces, and to attack a power who-is just
about to reap the fruits of well-earned vic-
tory, as one of the most causeless and ret-
rograde wars on record, and one utterly out
of all sympathy with the traditions of Eng-
lish liberty and humanity. It is not possi-
ble for England to expect sympathy any-
where in. the world for an effort which
springs alone from the most selfish and low-
est imottlses of national feeling. 'Whatever
"sympathy" France or Austria gives her in
this stroke at Russia arises solely from com-
munity of selfish interests, and from motives
which command no respect in the world.
The impartial and fair-minded of all na-
tions condemn such a war as both useless
and wicked.
with Russia. The old common-places are
reuttered about the bonds of sympathy
between Russian absolutism and American
democracy, and the ancient hostility in the
" States" to the British and all true " Brit-
ish interests." No American, however,
need be informed that there is scarce a
grain of truth in either allegation. There
is no especial feeling here for the Russian
Government and for its people, while the
old raneor against England has mostly died
a'tray. The mass of our Intelligent classes
simply fellow in the wake of the English
Liberals and of Cobden himself in their
judgments on. the Eastern question. ' The
great 'English reformer uttered statements
at the time of the Crimean war which were^
extremely unpopular then, but which the
sober second thought of the people will
ultimately confirm,'and which are singularly
apposite now. He regarded the Crimean
war as a great mistake, as a costiy expendi-
tiire of money and lives to prop up a decay-
ing and oppressive structore of government,
and to weaken a power in no way dangerous
to Europe. We believe that this view is
held by great numbers of British Liberals,
either privately or publicly, aslt is certainly
the usual opinion of most impartial observ-
ers in Europe or America.
Cobden derided-the idea of the ocoupar
tion of Constantinople by the Russians as
being in any i^ay perilous to " British in-
terests." To him it seemed that the making
the Turldsh capital a port of ui enterpris-
ing nation would merely add to general
commerce', and so be favorable to British
trade, while its possession by a strong power
would be no more dangerous to England
than the possession of Marseilles or Toalon
by France is no^. That is, it would be an-
other port to blockade, a plaee for cruisers
and privateers to issue from, and another
point on which ' to assail the enemy. To a
power commanding the Mediterranean, as
Great Britain alirays 'wiU, the addition of
another fortified harbor on its coasts, which
may be held by an enemy^' is no such terrt-

BELIEF FOB UNDEBWBITEBS.
We recently called attention to the im-
mense failing off in fire insurance premiums
received last year in this City, when com-
pared with those taken by companies four
years ago; and now, by the aggregated state-
ments of insurance companies licensed to
do business in this State of their receipts
and expenditures during the year 187J<<t
appears that the decline in income joil^usi-
ness generally throughout the country, if
not proportionately as large as in New- York
City, is, nevertheless, sufficiently so to make
the chances of profit during the present year
exceedingly doubtful. This can be shown, if
no further comparison is made than that af-
forded by contrasting this year's returns with
those of twelve months ago. The loss ac-
count has increased during this period by
about one million dollars', while the pre-
miums from which demands of this kind are
to be met are reported at a sum more
than four million dollars less than
that given last year. The expenses
of carrying on the business have been
slightly decreased, and this saving may be
said to constitute about all the actual profits
of the year; for though the amount of
money paid out in dividends to stockholders
was nearly as large in 1877 as it was in
1876, it was mainly paid from money pre-
viously earned. This can be easily proved
by comparing the assets of the companies
at the first of this and at the first of tbe
previous year, by which it will appear that
they have been reduced during the inter-
vening twelve months by mora than five
millions of dollars. In other words, the in-
crease in loss and the decrease in volume
of premium were made good by drafts upon
the assets, while the stockholders were paid
their semi-annual returns, just as they would
have been if the results of the business had
exhaustion of resources cannot long con-
tinue, and distasteful as it may seem, it
would have been better for many companies
td have passed their dividends rather than
pay them, as they did, when they could not
rightly afford to. If there had been a prom-
ise of speedy improvement, the risk might
have been safely taken ; but every under-
writer'with anything more than a. strictly
local experience 'will admit that the losses
during the first quarter of this year are
much more severe than they were during
a similar period in the year that has
passed; while, if we except this City,
-rates of premium are considerably lowM.
In view of these depressing circumstances,
the -relatively small coterie of insurance
men who now make up the National Board
of Fire Underwriters have determined to
call a general meeting of underwriters, to
be held in this City during the last week of
this month, for purpose of consultation. It
is no doubt the hope of those who take an
active part in this movement, that the con-
sultation will.end in an agreement between
the representatives of the various compa-
nies to adopt ^d sustain a imif orm tariff
of rates ; but' whatever ulterior wish there
may be entertained, it is for the present
put ont of sight, and the insurance men
who meet together irill do so for the osten-
sible purpose of getting and giving advice.
"Fhat such an occasion might be made a
highly enjoyable one, we are ready to be-
lieve V bat that the meeting, if it does not
take some decisive action, 'will have any
perceptible effect, in bettering the present
condition of affairs is not at all probable.
There are only two ways by which the
down'ward tendency of tiie business can
be arrested. One is by the .establish-
ment and enforcement of a tariff of
rates, the other is a redaction in the
am'oimt of insurance capital. Both may be
brought about by means of an immense con-
flagration ; but as this is not among the re-
soaroes of the National Board, all that its
m«aal>mBwiU have to offer in the way of
snggeaftioiT 'Will be that some form of tariff
be adopted, as the other sltemative— a ani-
If the ofieera of these
beehsimed into forget-
ting the 4iet^torial methods which the
National l^kwrd adopted a few yean ago, in
the days of itsjpower, they might be indaeed
again to submit themselves to its authority ;
but the inmre^on has become so strongly
rooted in <flie minds of the managers of the
smaUer onces that this organization was
formerly (jarried on prineipally for the bene-
fit of a few great agency eomp^iies, that
they are | not| likely, until more severely
pressed than they now are, to' come to any
mutual agreement with their stronger rivals.
As we nowlookatihe sitDStion there doesnot
seem to be any artificial or voluntary means
of relief available. As stated above, a great
fire might can^ a sufficiently large loss to
produce a^eaotiou ; but if it does not come
through this method, the only other way
ynH be a cantinuance of the roinoos compe-
tition of toidayl until the present surplus of
insurance capital over the requirements of
the busine^ is jcompletely absorbed.
im: TIMBEB LANDS.
Major PcnXLl^srejMrtnpon the condition
of the publie lands west of the one hun-
dredth meridian Way pos'sibly hasten the
much-nefeded legialation upon this important
topic. There is n|pw pending in Congress a
bill caloulatedlto remedy some of the evils
which Major PqwsLt, points out, though the
chances of thei passage of this bill, or any
improvement qimti might not be safe to pre-
dict. The timbi r land question has had two
branches — one, 1 te immediate suppression
of existing depre la :ioii8, which is an execu-
tive measure ; t e other, the revison of the
land laws, whiol ii a legislative function.
Congress has hi h( rto expended its energy
in throwing obi ta sles in the way of the
former task, whi e caving the latter for the
indefinite future i.
The first step 1 o i ake in this business is
the amendment ef the Homestead and Pre-
emption laws, so t lat they may apply only
to arable, agricuUural land, and may wholly
exempt land valval le mainly for the timber
growing on it. ' fa( inherent difficulty with
the Desert Land ic of the last Congress has
been the praoti al difficulty in carrying it
into effect It d eanot ){romote the irriga-
tion and the seM in ent of the desert lands,
as was intended i n< [ expected, either by in-
dividuals or cora>Rations ; it should be so
amended as to C9r ' out its intent. As for
the issue of lank icrip, this has been so
abused that thef si ortest way to cure the
evil may be to-^ab^ndon the practice al-
together.
Shortly before th/b present session of Con
gross Commissioner Williamson set forth
with great clearness the precise kind of
legislation needed for the amendment of
the Land laws. He held that Congress
should withdraw from pre-emption lands
chiefly valuable for timber lands, and from
all rale or acquisition except for cash, at a
ir appraised value ; that it shouM author-
ize the Inteiior Department to sell for cash,
as Congress might direct, timber from the
public lands in mining districts, in order to
remedy the hardships of existing laws, on
which Mr. Blaine has since been so elo-
quent ; and, finally, that it should provide
for the care and custody of timber lapds
that are unfit for agriculture in such a way
that the timber may be sold, and that then
the gro'sfth may be renewed. This last
recommendation has suggested the idea of
a " bureau of forestry," for the custody of
lands kept to sell timber from.
It is difficult to see how any reasonable
objection can be taken to this proposed line
of legislation. There may be captious ob-
jections, or objections founded oh the in-
terests of timber-thieves; but it is clear
that such measures would allow people to
buy legally timber which they cannot buy
now without taking the land with it. The
bill in the Public iLsmds Committee of the
House starts by declaring that public lands
valuable chiefly for timber are to be hence-
forth not subject to entry under the Pre-
emption or Homestead laws, and that they
can be sold hereafter only for cash. The
President and Secretary are to obtain as
soon as practicable, from good authority,
and file in the Land Office, a description of
what is known as the arid region — that is-,
territory which cannot be tilled without
irrigation— and upon the mineral lands in
this area now not subject to entry, except
for mineral entry,' nothing can be sold but
the timber. These lands will be called
" timber mineral lands," while the other
lands in the act are to be known as " tim-
ber lands." Surveyors-General are here-
after, under their contracts, to report to the
Land Office the extent, character, and esti-
mated quantity of timber on any lands they
survey, and elaborate provisions arrange for
distinguishing timber plots in such a way
that they can be easily withdra"wn from sale
or entry. The minimum'price to be charged
for each tract of "timber land" and for
the timber growing on each tract of ' ' min-
eral timber land " is to be de'termined by
rules to be fixed by the Secretaries of the
Treasury and the Interior and the Land
Office. These timber lands, ttith certain
expressed reservations, are duly to be of-
fered for sale to the highest bidder, for cash,
but for not less than the appraised value,
and those remaining unsold are to be sub-
ject to private entry, for cash, or location
with the land 'wsu^rants. Analogous regula-
tions are made for the sale of the timber on
the timber mineral lands, which must be
removed within five years after purchase.
A provision which needs careful consid-
eration as to its wording is one permitting
any rof^dent of any mineral district " to
fell and remove, for building, agricultural,
mining, or other domestic purposes, any
timber or other trees grovring or being on
the public lands, said lands being mineral,
and not subject to entry nnder existing
laws of the United States, except for min-
eral entry." However, it is provided that
this 'timber, so cut, '"shall not be for sale,
exportation, or profit," and shall be subject
to any regulations that the Secretary of the
Interior may make, while the general penalty
of $500 fine and six months' imprisonment;
applyiiig to any infraction of the act, may
also secure this partionlar provision: from
abuse.
Commissioner Williaksov suggested that
authority should be given for the sole of
timber, in oases of mgeney, from pnblic
lands not yet surveyed, and 'we observe tiiat
a provision for this pnrpose is inserted in
the pending InU. In short, this bUl, while
presumably quite capable of improvement
in detail, seems to aim to cover some of the

THE LATEST CASE OF " BAZDTG.^
■ "Hazing" has of late becom: altogether
too freqnent — as the Berald olteh remarks
of murder and other atroeioos crimes. At
several of our leading colleges unhappy
Freshmen have lately been " hazed," much
to their astonishment and dissatisfaetion.
Bad as hazing is when it is perpetrated by
boys, it is infinitely worse when young
ladies are the " hazers." Their little hands
vrere never made to pull each othePs hair
down, and titat they should take part in
scenes of riot and violence is particnlorly
revolting to onr nobler instincts. Never-
theless we must expect that the students of
female colleges will emulate the practices
of the students of male colleges, and we
need not be surprised to learn that a pe-
culiarly atrocious case of hazing reoentiy
occurred; at a female college the name of
which shall, from obvious motives, be sup-
pressed.
Among the Freshwomen of this nameless
college was one who possessed an nnusually
independent spirit, and refused to humble
herself before the haughty Sophomoresses.
Although the latter had forbidden Fresh-
women to wear ribbons, or to baUg their
hair, she openly fluttered the showiest rib-
bons, and flaunted the most tightly-crimped
bang in the faces of her natural superiors.
Moreover, she wore a seal-skin sack — a gar-
ment which, by prescription, had become
the badge of the npper-class women — and
being an intrinsically pretty girl, she at-
tracted a degree of attention when 'within
sight of young men which w&a construed as
a personal insult to the older students.
There is no doubt that in these and other
ways she not only exasperated the Sopho-
moresses, but formed a sort of nucleus
around which other mutinous Freshwomen
mirht be expected to gather.
About 12 o'clock on the night of the 23d of
March last the independent Freshwoman
-vras aroused by a gentle knock at her door.
On demanding who was there, the reply 'vas
made, " It's me, dear ; Tve got a letter for
you from a young man." In her excitement
she did not pause to consider the 'essential
improbability of this reply, but hastily un-
locked the door. Instantiy seven girls rushed
into the room, locked the door behind them,
and, seizing the nnhappy Freshwoman,
gagged her with a " puff," and bound her
hand and foot with two of her own sashes.
This done, she was placed in a chair, and
forbidden to move a muscle under pain of
having a live mouse, which one of the ag-
gressors had brought in a small box, let
loose on the floor.
Such a threat would have curdled the
blood in the veins of most girls, but this
girl was made of firmer material, and, in-
stead of fainting, she sat perfectly still and
watched the " hazers." The latt-er were
led by one of the most riotous students of
the college, a girl who had repeatedly made
surreptitious tea in her own room after bed-
time, and had more than once been known
to wave her handkerchief at casual young
men. The whole party had prepared them-
selves for their lawless work by leaving
their overskirts and their back hair in their
rooms. They were evidently already nnder
. the infiuence of green tea, and they con-
stantiy made use of such revolting expres-
sions as " my gracious," " my goodness
me," and other equally shocking blas-
phemies. They had brought "with them two
quart bottles of cold tea, a supply of dry
toast, and a jar of jelly. Seating them-
selves around the table, they rapidly con-
sumed these intoxicating refreshments, and
the helpless Freshwoman's heart sank with-
in her as she perceived that they were de-
liberately stimulating themselves to a
height of recklessness i^hich would fit
them for the most atrocious outrages.
For half an hour the revelers drank the
fiery green tea, and maae the midnight air
ring with the rollicking songs of Messrs.
MooDT and Sankey. At length the leader
judged that her companions were ripe for
any sort of crime, and thereupon summoned
them to carry out their nefarious design.
They began by taking out and confiscating
their 'victim's crimping-pins. They then
carefully cut off tvith a pair of sharp scissors
every vestige of her bang, leaving in its
place a short stubble that closely resembled
a masculine beard of three days' growth.-
Next they cut all her remaining hair to a
uniform length of about four inches, and
dipped her light brown switch in the ink-
stand. The entire contents of the victim's
own "bottle of bandoline was then emptied
upon her head, and her hair after being
combed straight back from her forehead
'was secured in that position by a circnlor
comb. Every particle of ribbon in her pos-
session was seized by the " hazers," who, in
cruel mockery of her fondness for ribbons of
becoming tints, proceeded to trim all her
dresseswith a hideous parti-colored red and
y ellowribbon. All this time the 'victim of these
outrages made no sound, although the pow-
der with which the "puff" was filled was
several times on the point of choking her.
'When tbe " hazeri" had finished their loath-
some work they removed the gag, and forced
the Freshwoman to solemnly promise on a
volume of Emerson's Essays to wear only red
and yellow ribbons, to send her seal-skin
saekhome by express, and to henceforth wear
her hair in the simple and excessively un-
becoming fashion in 'which they had ar-
ranged it. Probably she would have refused
at any cost to make such a promise had she
'not caught sight of herself in the mirror
and thus sustained a shock which complete-
ly nn&erved her.
It remains to be seen whether the college
anthbrities will permit this bratal assault
upon a defenseless student ; or whether the
spirit of "hazing" is to be permitted' to
spread among onr female colleges, ruining
the nbbons and obliterating tbe bangs of
innocent Freshwomen.

P^an, Wednesday, M«roh 27, 1878.
There are momento when one despain of
tte FTeaeh in tiie nutter of noUties, for they
do not seem to h>Te yet learned that eonstitii-
tlonal GoTemments are the result of modera-
tioa and eompromise, never of Tloleatee and
mvohition. The incessant round of crises and
nnexpeeted conflicts that we hare here ia reaUy
wearisome. If the coantry is eahn for three
full days otfe can coont npon some sort of agi-
tation on the fourth, and then the botrgeait ele-
ment becomes frightened, as If such athin«;
had nerer happened before, and the shop-
keepers talk as if they were in the depths of
despair. A majority of these Incidents are
foolish, and do a great deal of harm. Three
days ago things seemed to be going on smooth-
ly ; day before yesterday all this was changed.
The Senate had the audacity to make
some changes in the budget, and made
two or three insignificant alterations.
Immediate there was a cry of alarm.
-The majority in the Assembly pretended
that the Senate was conspiring against the
Chamber, and the Republican journals began
to accuse the Senators with the crime of wish-
ing to restore the monarchy. There is no ap-
parent relation between changing an item in
the Tax law and changing the form of goTem-
ment, but the moment the Senate expressed an
opinion of its own there were general charges
of conspiracy. The Parisiiin iottrgeoia will
now gravely tell you that things are rapidly
going to the bad ; that the Senate is conspiring ;
that business Is stopped, because no man can
aay how the matter will end. Most of the Mod-
erate Republicans say that the fault lies with
the militant men of their party, and particu-
larly with Gambetta. It was he who spoke of
the "Athenian Bapublic," and who promised
that we should soon have the country divided
between the Tories and the Whigs. But the
moment the elements of his Tory party are vis-
ible he makes furious accusations of conspiracy
against them. During the past two days we
have had a tempest of indignation against
the Conservatives of the Senate who dued to
modify the budget, and some of the papers even
accuse them of treason to the Bepublic. It is
all very well to struggle against a vigilant,
active, and popular opposition, but between
that and suppressing all opposition by force
there is a wide dlileienee. It is the intoler-
ance of the BepttbUcana which makes one de-
spair at times of the future of the Bepublic,
for when any party can raise the cry of perse-
cution it soon has the people on its side. A
short time ago the advanced Bepublieans of
Paris preferred' ehanies against Capt. Gardn,
of the Army, who was accused of severity to-
ward the prisioners taken during the Com-
mnne. He was in charge of the military prisons,
and the feeling against him among the Badi-
cala was like that against the commander of
Andersonville after our war. The enemies of
this officer found a difference in his accounts of
a few hundred francs, nhieh he had tried to
conceal, and one of hi* clerks was induced to-
betray him. Hewas tried for this offense, after
23 years of honorable service, and
lenteneed to one year's Imprisonmeat.
Capt. Qarein was condemned up<w testimony
which the public regarded aadoubtfuL But the
material fact was proved, and, although a mere
bagatelle, it sufficed to ruin an honorable career.
On the day of the trial another man named Qar-
ein was arrested in Paris, charged with the crime
of assassination, laving under a false name,
the ofSoer who ordered the execution of Qens.
Clement Thomas and Lecomte had been in the
dty ever since the close of the war. One day
an officer who performed an.act of heroism to
■ave the unfortruiste Generals chanced to meet
Gareih upon the streets. He signaled him to
the Police, and, on examining his papers, he
was found to be the famous Major Garcin of the
Commune. In his ease justice was slow, bat it
came at last. In 1873 the Sixth Court-martial,
sitting at Versailles, condemned Garcin to death,
in ctmiumacium. A short time ago the com-
mandant of the One Hundred and Sixty-ninth
Battalion, known as the Blanqni, Battalion of
the Commune, was arrested lia the manner
■tated.
Gardn could not deny that he was the man,
■nd, moreover, he was recognized by several
persons who were taken into his prlsion for th^
purpose of identifying him. The charzes
against him are as serious as any that can be
imagined. On the 18th of March, 1871, at 6
(/dock in the momiog, Gen. Lecomte took his
battaHon up the heights of Montmartre, having
received orders to seize the cannon placed there
by the so-called Central Committee. They bad
been taken on the ground that they were the
prooerty of the National Guard, and hence of
the Commune of Paris. After taking them, the
General left the Eighteenth Battalion of Chas-
seurs d pied in charge, and went away to pre-
sent the inventory. An hour later the people
flocked to the heights of Montmartre, sur-
rounding the battiSiOn in charge of the guns.
The Blanqui Guards came up to mingle with
the populiKe, and when the Chasseurs were
completely hemmed in, Garcin sprang forward
and Invited the people to retake the guns, cry-
ing "A bat la Chtusatn/" The latter were
preparing to fire npon the people when Gen. I^e-
eomte arrived and. in the name of humanity,
he ordered the troops not to fire, and knocked
up the first rifles with his sword. At that mo-
ment a Sergeant named Verdagner reversed his
rifle, saying that the soldiers would never fire
npon the people, and the crowd rushed upon
Qen. Lecomto, surrounded him, disarmed him,
Btroek him in the face, and marched him off to
prison. On the way Gen. Thomas was met also,
and the erowd marched them both to the Bue des
Boslars. A staff officer insisted upon sharingthe
lot of Ms OeneraL and even insulted the Com-
munists to be taken along, and it was this officer
who discovered Garcin. The lattor had charge
of erarything in the Bue des Hosiers. There
waa a short eonsnltation and the prisoners were
eondamned to death. The two Generals were
pushed into the gurden and placed against the
wall ; Oardn brought up a squad of the Blanqui
Onards. and it was he who gave the order
to fira. The details are horrible. Gen. Le-
eomto was' wounded simply, and a Sergeant
beat his bndns out with the butt of his rifle.
The sight was so terrible that a panic ensued,
and, eonsdenoe stricken, the erowd rushed
from the garden and the scene. The young
staff officer who had witnessed the execution
fnnB his window, and who would have shared
the fate of his General but for this panic, waa
left alone. He walked out, made his way
throoxh the erowd, and eacaoad to Tetsaillea.
Gaieln denied the charges in a general.wav,
hot the proofs were too strong against him. All
tha datiJis of that painful march were brought
out. At one point he inanlted Oen. Lecomte,
telUnc him that ha had to render an account of
bis fnnda '• I have no aeeounte to render to
the atnaOU like yon," replied the GeneraL
••■Wretch!" replied Gardn, "you wiH pay for
that and bo shot afterward." A num-
ber of witnesses to the bloody scene
war* found, and' all recognized Gtar-
etn' bat the chief was the heroic Capt.
Ptaak. of the Eighteenth Chasseurs, serving
Bomentarlly upon the staff, who, at the risk of
losing hia life, insiste4 upon following his Gen-

A few days back cable diapatohes stated that
the Anuriean entries to the Henley regatta must be

are to consist of single-scnU shells, nair-oared shells,
and fonr^oared shells, and the winners are to be sent

stive nmatenr oarsmen of the 'United States. These
trial races at Wstkins are to oecor on May 28. 29,
and 30, and the Henley regatta commences Jnlr 4.
It will be seen that it will be iraposaible^to name the
Anurlesn entries, that is to say the winner* at Wat-
kins, in time to meet the reqdrements of toe Hen-
ley resatta committee. New the ody reason the
Endiahmen ean give— althongh they say they irill
give none at all — is that amateurs In the Udted
States are not amatears in Eng^nd. An amnt^r
oarsman in England is a person who does no kind of
mannal labor, and being gentlemen of leisure they
refuse to recognize aa their equals, even on the wa-
ter, any one who has to work for his living. Tha
question of merit and American manhood has noth*
isg to do with It, In their oplaioD, and no matter how
deserving may be the nantilus pair, or other smsteur
oarsmen in this country, the chances of their being
permitted to compete for the He^ypzises are but
slim at best. Bafsirlng to this snbjeet of Ameriean
amateurs, the PaU Mall 6azttU (whose boating re-
porter is one of the ablest sad tslrest ia London)
says:
*' The expected arrival of another Ameriean rowing
crew to contend with English amatears brtags op
once more the question of what is held to constitute
an amateur on the other side of the Atlantic Tbete
is no doubt tnat a large proportion of men who "are
reckoned amatenrs In Ameries woald be eotmted aa
professloDals here. Thay are artisans, livi]^ by
manual labor — a fact which in Kugland would at once
debar an oarsman from eompetlug with omateuzs,
even tfaooeb he might never hava up to that time
actually rowed a rare tor hard cash. In 1867 the St.
John*aciew,of NeW'Bnmswick. enteredattbePrench
Parisian reeatto, {not the English one. held lafer on.)
They were boat-builders and carpenters, the same
who ofterwartl opposed Ren forth s Type crew for
rowing in an Intemstloaal match. Ko one supposed
thtfm to be amatears ; but. in complaisance, they
were allowed to row against the EngUsh amateur
crews to aire them from disappointment. Carrying
no coxswain, wiiiie the EngUsh crews were sll har-
dened with one, they won pretty eSaily. Bat this
Sreoedent ean hardlr be sollowed, or we ahall aoon
dd English regattas overwhelmed with American
artlaana. One of the Atolanta crew, who rowed in
England in 1872 against the London Bowing Clnb,
and afterwatd started for the Diamond ScuUs at
Henley, has now been thrown over as a professional
even by American amateurs. We may be pretty aaf e
in ossnming that an oarsman who Is reckoned ont ot
the pale of amatenrs in America woald not be fit
company for amateurs in th'ts cointry. But the con-
verse of the proposition by no means holds good.
From the experiences ot English crews in 1876 at
PhUadelphia it is clear that English BegatU Com-
mittees would be doing Ininstlee to English anuUears
if they did not scratinize carefully the anteeedents
of every American ' amateur * who offered himself
for competition. The standard in England
should be that of England, and not that of
America. In addition to the Columbia College
crew, the coming of which was aunoanced
in the Winter, there are likelr to be other-American
crews over this Summer. The ' Wolkier's (f) Begatte
Association' are starting a large reaatta In May,
from which to select representatives to compete at
all the principal English regattas this Summer, and
also at the Paris regatta. The Columbia Grew are
baxdiy likely to be other than amatears. such as we
should ourselves recotpilse ; but some of the other
competitors that may come over may probably re-
qtUre looking after. The Henley : towards meet this
week, ana it is understood that among other things
under their cousiderstion will be this question of
American amatenrship. They will doubtless aoggest
some plan of action for deal ng promptly andlmpar-
tlaliy with any case of snspicioos quahfieation which
may come before them." -v

A WOMAN SUED BT A MAN— A BEMABKABLI
CONTRACT— $5,000 PAID FOB A BUNDLE
OF LOVE-LETTEES.
According to the London JVeuw the latest
cose ia England of breach of promise of marriage, that
of Heap against Marris, does not,add moeh glory to
a sort of action which, if a bill now pending in the
House of Commons becomes a law, is doomed soon
to disappear. In tfaia affair the ordinary zelationa
of the parties were reversed : it waa the man who
sa^ the woman for her breach of contract. There
coald bo ao aort of doubt as to the fact of the con*
tract. An agreement waa signed by the parties
whereby the defendant sgxeed to become the lawfd
wife of the ploint'Jf on or about the 1st of iTanoary,
1875. In defodt the aefsndant was to pay a third
share of toe property which might be left to her
under the will of her parents. She was to pay
more than this If she did not espoase her business*
Uke wooer. She was to par him $100 per annum at
the end of 1875, C200 at the end of 1876. f400 In
1877. and so on. In a sort ef martingale, always
doubling till the lady died, or married, or perliaps
became hankmpt. In the tenth year this som woiud
be over $50,000 a year. * It is not very easy to see
how the impassioned lover, whose surname was
Heap and whose Christian name for aught we know
may have been Uriah, indaced Ulss-Marrls to enter
Into this filngtilar Ixmd. The parties had know each
other for a long time. Mr. Heap first made the
acqaalatence of >Iias Marris when he was
Second Master at Calstor Grammar School, In 1897
or 1858. The father of Miss Marris was a soli-
eitor practicing in the neighborhood. In 1862
the Tfead Master of the school died, and the
plaintiff hoped to obtain his place. He failed,
and it seems'that the father of Miaa Marris opposed
and prevented the uppolhiment. .Ten years after
tliis the singular contract was rigned wmcb w* have
described, and which was perhaps anggested to Mr.
Heap, as a school-master, by hU recollection of the
arithmetical problem about the nails in a horse's
shoe. For the defendant it waa alleged that tha con-
tract was to be invalid in certain eiicuiastaiie&s, bat
the defense was not proved. A private srmnge-
ment wsa madebetween the psrties, and the agnla ved
Mr. Heap accepted the som ot $5,000, asfiueom-

forMr. Smyth,asSapertaitendent, 30 dlffereat suits
to foredose mortgagee deposited with the Insoranee
Department by the Korth America life Insurane*
Company, which is, and has for some time been, in
the hands of a Beceiver. These mortgages amoimt
. In the aggregate, with their acerasd interest, to verr
nearly, if not qute $l,O0O,O0a Before giving a
list of them, it may be worth while to cdl
attention to some aigniflcant facta connected with
their foreelaeaie. There are two classes of mortgages,
both of which were deposited with the Insurance De- ,
partment. The llist class is for the generdfand
created imder the law of 1853, by which eaeh Ute
insurance company ia required to keep on deposit,
with the State ttaperintendant, $100,000 of secori-
tiesto ensblelttodo baslness at aH The aecond
class is for the specld fund created imder the law of
1869, and has reference to registered policies,' the
fund being constantly increased, in the caae of com-
panies doing baslness, by the reserves which most
be deposited to secure the policies registered in the
department. Solts for the foreclosure of mort-
gages so deposited were begun just before the
appointment of Mr. Smyth as Superintendent,
bat they were dways broodit by the Attorney-
General; and there seems to be no doubt toat the
latter Is the proper person to bring the actions, he
being tha law olBcer ot the State, and the Insurance
Department being a portion of the Govern-
ment of the State. The questiou as to who
is the proper olBcer to bring such actions,
may at first eight seem a trifling one, but a
moment's reflection will serve to convince aay
person that it ia really ot serion* moment, especially
to the poor policy-holders who mayhap have been
rained by the fdthlessness. crimlnMl ne^Ugenee. or
otoer misconduct on the part of those to whom they
intrusted the savings of years of hard labor, in the
hope that their wldowa and children shodd
not be left Oestltttte at the untimely death
of their snpportera It the State, through
ita law officer — Che Attorney-General — brings
the sdu to foreclose the mortgages, the fiud wodd
inure to the benefit of the poUey-holdars without its
being burdened with legd fees and other such tnciden.
td.rxpensea Where, M has been the ease with Mr.
Smyth, the Insurance Bnpetlntendent chooses to
bring the salts in his own nama and to employ pri-
vate attorneys, a large slice of the fund ia neeessoUly
retdned by the latter, and Is consequently taken
from tha money which of right belongs to the polloy-
hddeis.
As regard! the couru which hat been sdoptsd rela.
tlve to toe securities deposited by the North America
Life Insurance Company, it may be said tliat some of
the proceedings have ealled forth a great ded of
comment among the persons who axe affected there-
by. I It seems that Superintendent Smyth haa am-
ploylsd as hia attorneys Messrs. Waldo, Tobey
& Orover. The property covered by the
mortgagee la altnated la thla City, where
the aetiona are neeeaaarily brought. The attor-
joeya bdosg to Eases County, and are the aame per-
{sons who drew ao large a aUee out of the property of
the New-Torfc Life Insurance Company— aa was
shown in the recent impeachment ot Smyth— for a
ao-eslled examinatloa-of the titles of the property
Kortgsged to that corporation. If their ehsrgea
the forsclosare sdta ' should be at all
proportioaate wUh their eharges In regard to the
Kew-Yoi^ Company, the sum totd to be subtracted
fnmi the fund which Is to go to the policy-boMers
^rill be something enormooa Even shunld 'their
chatges be after the manner of many New-York law-
yeta the sdta will still coot the poor policy-holders
of the North America Company eertaldy as maeb
as $10,000, and, perhaps, very maeh more,
over and above what they wodd have to
pay were the saita tomed over by Smyth to
the Attomey-General. who codd not well refuoe to
bring the aetiona The difference, wrung from the
poeketa of plandered Policy-holders, is applied to
no public purpoaa. bat stmnly goes to swell the sg-
giegatedf fees which the Snperintsndeat of Insu-
rance has been taming over to a firm ot polltied
lawyers. AH toe saita which have been brought
are pendng. None have gone to a de-
ciee- In the present depressed condition of the
red estate market, too, it ia a matter of seiiona con-
cern whether, unless some provision Is made for the
sdes of the mortgagea property, they wodd not end
in a sacriflee. To prevent sueh a resdt wodd be
somewhat difficult, the Superintendent haring no
power to purchase in at the sde and no one else bav-
ingany money to do so.
The following is a table, ecmpiled from the
records In the Ckmnty Clerk's ofltee, giving a list of
the mortgagea by whom they were made, the dates
on which the notices of lis pendens were filed, the
times at which the mortgaoea were due, and the
omounta of the mortgagee, not ineluding interest :

A letter from Allentown, Penn., 4th inst., to
the Philadelphia 2l0K», says:
" AboDt nine yeaisago the little village of Albtnr-
tls,oath* line of the East Peaasytnuita Bdltoad,
was lateasdy exdted over the disappearance ot a
yonagtelsgnvhoperator named McKtoney. It was
known that he had considerable money on his paisoa
tbad^t before he dlsappesred, ana as he filled to
cany away with htm any of his wearing apparel or
other efhets, and no eaose for so sadden a departure
appearing, it was at once believed that he had been
mmdeisd, but the erime could not be established
against any one, nor codd the body be found! He
was last seen entering the American House; near
th* depot, then kept by a man named Blank. The
honae hadabad reputation, and there was a strong
fading against tha Blanks at the time. But proof
podtivitwas not to be feand. Time wore on and
McElnney waa dmost forgotten. He hod trat one
friend lt^ the neighborhood with whom he had been
in any way intimato. His mother lived away off m
minds and waa too poor to pat detectives to work
In t&e esse. Bat there seems to have been an eye-
wltnesa to this murder. This witness is Lizzie Long,
who waa a servant girl In the boose at the time.
Shehas, after many yean, given up the secret, and
her ston is as follows :
■''McElnney, who had lost an arm In the rebellion,
bad jtist drawn hia pension and also bis monthly pay
from the railroad company, and was out on a spree.
He came to the American House, and late at night,
after all the people had departed, was assaulted by
the proprietor 'of the hotel and made a gallant de-
fense.' The one-armed man proving too much for
hla aatagodst, a son came to the aaststance, and,
thotigh pleading piteouaiyfor hla life, McKlnney waa
bmtatlv mardereo and robbed- The body -was taken
from the basement saloon, rince closed up. carried
into the bam and bid in the hay-mow. When the
smell became offensive the body was carried some
500 yards acraas the fiddsond thrown into an
abandoiied Iron mine. This mine was located on the
farm of Blank's fatoer and has since been filled up.
so that today 60 feet of clay rest upon the body of
McKiimey.
' "ThisstorybyLlzzleLonglsconoboratedinmany
ifttportant parUeulars. McKinney's hat waa found
inthedelda, about mldwav between the hotel and
toe deserted shaft, three or four days after he disap-
peared. Three men have been found who give im-
nortaat testimony in reference to matters about the
nam, bat this, togetoer with other facts, 'the officers
who are working up this case desire suppressed for
toe preeent. The attention of the olBcers was drawn
to this case by a faidly feud, which brought out
moat of the facta. Detective Yohe, of Bethlehem,
and CUef of Police Gift, of this city, ore working up
the ease, and will probably make the arrest in a day
or two, ao aoon as,the Commlsaioners give them the
proper encouragement "rhe woman Long la now
residing in Beading. The Blankrclaim that she will
not npeat ber story. There are a dozen persons at
Albnnis to whqm she has told the horrible tale, and
should she fdl to speak out ahe will be arrested aa
an accessory. There ia plenty ot evidence to bold
her and thoae whom she implicates. Should the
Commlaaioners vote the money a search for the re.

From ths BoHon FoH, AprU 5.
I At the meeting of the Indies' Physiological
knttitata jetterda^r afternoon, Mn. Annie D. C.
Hard^ Tend a letter f rum Ber. £ . E. Hale on tbe tub-
Jeot.of the voice of American vomen, which haa a pe-
enllar interest on jMcoont of lu subject, ita enter-
tatnlnc manner, and ita antbonhip. Tbe letter ia aa
followi:
= Dear Mbs. Habdt : What I taid to the ladies in
ebureb after Tonr reading waa, ia substance, this :.
I Talne saeb InatraotiODs as Mrs. Uardj's and those
of tbe school of teachers which ahe represents, be-
cause I hope tbe/ mar improve Id the course of time
the bad voices to which my coantrywomea are now
.trained. I nseribe it mostly to the habits of our
laxge uboola ; some people ascribe it to the dryness
of our climate ; whatever be tbe reason, the fact Is
that most Ameriean women talk with a cbrill voice,
and If they wish to^ln irawer, aeek it by sharpen-
ing the note, or aereamin]^ Tatber than by glvlnc
mora volume.
I remember at the great dining saloon of the
Bauer an Lus Hotel In Zarich, both tbe largeat and
finett dining ImU I ever saw, when 500 people were
dining at once at thehr different tables, I could single
out my own country women in nil parts of the halt.
no matter what their distance, by the shrill yell,
more or less nasal, with which they summoned the
waltera, ordered soap, asked for a napkin, or oatsed
from pastry to ioe-creanu Above the general roar of
the btux-bxixz-bnzz of 500 roiees in conversation.
yoo eonld distinguish the war-crr of these eight or
ten, American women, as you distinguish signal
rockets at night above a lons^nd dnrk line of in-
trencbmenta. A casual observer would have no
dUBenltT in telling, at tbe end of tbe day, bow mnch
vastry these women ate. or bow often their plates
were ebanxed. We are so used to it in a ^und
steamer hare, or other ball where women are together.
that we do not notice it here. You need to be in
another land to know what it is.
Some people, as I say. ascribe this to climate. I
do not. If it were climate, you uid Mrs. Smith would
speak with tbU clamor cry, aa yon do not. Tfaero
may be a tendency that way in tbe climate, but the
Inman women do not have thia shriek ; and MUch
black women from the South as I have kuown have
been apt to speak in what we should call a subdaed
contralto. The eeneral habit ia to use the di tetta
voice almost wholly. The joke is bad, but tbe cus-
tom is detestable.
I ascribe it to the custom of the grammar schools
and prittarr schools, which makes little girls **read
up, as It la called. The teachers really expect a
ehlld of five to fill with her voice a room 50 feet
square and 15 feet high. Now, in slmplfcity. when
aebUdot'that age speaks In church to hermotyer,
in her natural volee, no person is conscious of it ex-
cept in the next pews. She does not affect the con-
ciegatlon at large at all Nor ought the child at
school to read any loader than she talks naturally.
But just as long as Misa Lovechild or Misa Scream*
well, tbe teacher, expect the poor thing to "rekd
loader." ao lomc will ahe change her home voice for
a school scream ; and lu the end the achool scream
takes tbe pUea of tbe home voice. I^ar aays of
OordeUa:
" Her voice was ever soft,
Oeatle and low. an excellent thing in woman."
If I bad money enough I. would have that written
in large aigna, in letters of icold, and hung in every
public sebool-room in the country. Failing thnt, if
yon and thoae like you will go aoout un a crusade'
showing women bow to use aU tbe mascles which be-
long to tbe human voice, why, women will find that
it is plaaaanter to talk and read so than it ia when
they use only the poor, wom-ont throat and palate,
and the anpsratua. such as it is. of the back of the
nose. I do not write In the interests of public speak-
ing. I sboald havo no tears if I never heard a woman
make a speech. But in tbe interests of readtue aload,
of school-rooms, and of talk, which is probablv the
thing which does most to miUce life happy, I bid you
and jonis God-speed. BOWARD £. HALS.

'Presidential question, in eonneetioa with which we
see 1[he remarkable sngsestion of a jury of some sort

that Ave of the members of the eoart should be
withdrawn from their judicial dotles and made, as
members ot tbe Bleetoral Commission, umpires in

tion to refer tbe question to the court he op-
posed as fatal to the independenee, the stablUty.
the repatation of tbeeonrt; and one of the strong-

that no soeh abuse of the court was ever contem-

Ex-06t. Franklin J. Moses, Jr., waa arrested
in this City Isstnl^t and locked np in aeellat Po-
lice Head-quarters. He wsa in the custody of J<rfm
S. Connor, special agent of the State of South Caro-
lina, who had a requisition f«r his arrest,
issued on the 27th of February. 1878. at Oolnrabia,
by Gov. Wade Hampton. Therequialtion sets forth
that Gov. Moses on tha 12tb of January. 1877,
made and uttered, with Intefit to . cheat and defraud.
a certain note for $316, payable 90 days
after date, with Interesi after maturity, at
the rate of 11^ per ' eeoL per month,
the note being made to the order of J.
Woodruff, signed Franklin 3. Hoses, Jr.. and Issued
to James Allan, the signature of J. Woodruff on the
back being forged. It also seu forth that tbe
foigery being discovered, the matter was laid before'
tbe Grand Jury of the Cttariestcm Court
of General Sessions on the . first Monday
of Fabmary last, and that the jaroe^
then found a true bill against Moaea
for forgery ; that it being discovered that ** be bad
fled from justice and tbe State of South Carolina.
and hsd taken refuge in the State of New- York,"
John S. Connor was made " Agent of Sonth Caro-
lina " on Feb. 12 to search for Moses,
and on Feb. 27 Gov. Hampton Isxned tbe
requisition on w^leh donnor arrested him.
The paper creating Connor agent is signed by Wil-
liam St. Julian Jervert Senator of the First Ciremt,
and the requisition ia signed by Wade Hampton.
Governor ; B. H.' Sims, Secretary, jmd John Scofln,
Acting Private Secretary.
Connor met Moses on Broadway yesterday. In
company with two friends, and took him into eus*
tody. His two companions went with the ex-Gov-
ernor to the Central OIQce, wHere the requisition
was' shown to Moses imd be acknowledged
himself to be the man ealled for by the document.
His friends thereupon left. Inspector Thome, who was
on daty at tbe Central Office, refused to allow any
one to see Moses except bta counsel, if he
should come, unless Moses should so request. But
when the inspector was requested to learn if tbe
ex-Govemot desired to see a friend who
wished his card sent in, tiie Inspector
flatly refused to do even that, and
said: "If Gov. Moses wants to make any state-
ment he can make it to-morrow in tbe court.
I'll neither let any one see him nor will
I present any one's card. If he asks to see
any one, that's a different matter ; but I will
not send him In any names of friends or enemies
for the purpose of ascertaining whetber or not
he wishes to see them." When the In-
spector was aaked how Mr. Moses was to
know whetber anr friend he desired to
see was within his reach, unless the friend's card
were sent in, the ofBdal politely answer^ that be
was sure he didn't know, but his mind was made
up as to the course he would pnrsne.
Franklin J. Motes, Jr., is the son of the late
Chief-Jastiee Moses, of South Carolina. During
the war ha was a rebel aympatbizer, and, it
is said, used to boast that he was the man
who pulled down the. American flag after
the surrender of Fort Sumter by Major Anderson.
At the close of the rebellion he became "recon-
stnuted" and joined the Republican Party, because
be saw that he might be able, through his shrewdness
and trickery, to attain a position In which he
could procare tbe money with which to satisfy his
prodigal tastes. Being clever and persaasive, be
acquired ofiice after office, until at last he entered
the South Carolina General Assembly, of which he
became Speaker. In this position he used such per-
fect titctics that be soon gained complete control of
tbe Assembly, and became recognlzMi ah a quick, in-
telligent, ambitious, and very unsernpulons pullti-
clan. He soon had a perfect knowledge of
the members, and appears to have bees able
to direet the coarse of legislation as he
desired. This ability necessarily broojEht bim into
connection with the venal lellows who then as-
sumed to govern the State of South CaroHna,
and over these he also* learned to domi-
nate. He keplf his proJigal cliaracter veiled
from the public for a time, and by his address and
polished ways caused them to look anon him as an
honest and good-hearted as well as an in-
telligent and jovial fellow. All these in-
fluences combined to procure bis nomination
for Governor iu 1872. Notwithstanding his
skill, however, the Republican Party was divided,
and his o^wnent in tbe election was a RepnGlican
named Tomlinson. Soon . after his election
and assumption of office he revealed his true
character in all its baaeneaa. He made
tise of every method that bis wonderful In-
genuity could suKgest to divert SUte funds
to his own benefit. He appointed hla tools
to offices of trusit, and then prevailed
upon them to use moneys collected by
them in the payment of orders drawn by bim. The
money be thus procured did not benefit bipi-
It was wasted in riotous living, and in
the second year of hia term he
was involuntarily adjudicated a bankrupt
in the United States Circuit Court at Charleston.
His liabilities were about $100,000 and his assets
of no value. In May, 1874, Moses met
with bis first miKfortone as a politician,
and it became apparent to all but himself that tbe
punishment for bis 'riotous manner of life 'was
be^nning, and that be wonld soon be
driven from power. On May 18 he was
indicted by a Republican Grnnd Jurv, sitting
at Orangebui^ for complicity with a n^ro nnmed
Humbert, who was the Treasurer of (Orangeburg
County, in a breach of trust and the com-
mission of grand larceny. Tbe indictment
charged that Moaes Induced Humbertl to
use $6,000 of the Sute funds to pay bis [Moses']
private debts. The circumstances of the case were
as follows : Dariug the Qubertfatorial campaign of
1872 Moses felt the need of haviuK a
newspaper as a personal organ. He sheet-
ed the ZTmon-HeroU, ^ of Columbia, and
approached Its proprietor, a man named Andrews,
«lth a proposition, to purchase an interest in tbe
paper. .His offer was accepted, and he became part
proprietor of the Unwn- Herald on condition that
he should pay $12,000. Andrews, it would seem,
distrusted Moses' faith in financjal affairs, und an
arrangement was made bdtween the two that $ti.000
of the purchase ' money sboald be paid with
a warrant drawn- against the State
Civil Contingent idud It was necessary
in order that Moses* trarrant might be cashed, that
he should have a tool in control of the State
funds. He therefore selected Humbert, an
ignorant negro, then not 21 years old,
to be Treasurer and Collector of State taxes in
Orangeburg County. Delighted with his office, Hum-
bert did what Moses told him, and cashed the Gov-
ernor's warrant when it was presented by Andrews.
When Humbert went to make his returns to
State Treasurer Cardoza, bis deficiency — which be
liad tried to Kide by purchasing State bonds at low
ratea and presenting them as worth tbelr par value
— was discovered. He was arretted and Gov. Mos«s'
method of procuring tbe iwyment of his debt was
revealed, as soon as the indictments were found,
warrants of arrest wen issued by the County
Judge. Humbert waa locked up. Sheriff
Cain went to Colombia to arrest Moses,
but tbe latter, refusing to submit, called Gen. Bev-
erly Nash and two companies of colored Militia to
protect him in the Executive office. He next pro-
cured a warrant for the arrest of the Sheriff
upon a charge ot illegally atiempAng to arrest him,
and that official was toread to fiee from Columbia. An
attempt wastbenmadetohave Humbert, who intended
to tarn State's evidence, sent to prison so that be
coold not be used as a witness. This failed, but the
c^ise was taken into the courts for argument,
and Judge Graham, sitting in Charleston, on
June 9, 1874, quashed the indictment for larceny
against Moses, on the ground that his action bad
been taken aa Glovomor, and that his official acta could
not be passed upon by tbe ordinary State conrts.
Moses went out of office in December. 1874, and
was succeeded by Daniel H. Chamberlain. The new
Governor knew Moaea* character thorongbly. and
checked most ot hlsgao^es, but in December, 1875,
tiie ex-Governor, who had become a kind of Demo*
crat. and a ruml negro, named Whipper. manipu-
lated tiie General Aasembly so that it efected
them Judges ot tbe Circtiit Court.
Gov. Chamberlain refused to issue tbeircommissioos,
and was stutsined In his course by the general senti-
ment of South Carolina and tha coimtry.
Since his failun to obtain a judicial position Moses
has been gradually going from bad to worse. He
nedeeted his family, and, it is said. eonsbrUd
with and lived upon aOBks of tbe&Kist depraved aad
dissotatecbaractarsiaCbarieston. It bas Men report-
ed that when be startedforNew York be stole elotbing

JVom Omr Otpn CtoriaswdOit.
Tbsxtox, Saturday, April 6. 1878.
The ilght over the Incidental biQ in the clos-
ing hoars of the session of tbe New-Jersey Leglala-
tare <m Friday night was one of the most exdtins
ever witnessed in OVentOtt. The contest was be-
tween the House and the Senate, and tha particular
bonelof contention was the item appropriating ^50
for the entertainment of tbe visiting members of the
NeW'Tork Legislature. Tba arxangemeata for their
reception had been entireiyin the hands of the
&)U8e, and the Senators, by some noaceountaUe
oversight, were not invited to the party. The Sen-
ate determined to resent this slight, and refused to
make any i^^propriation for their entert^nment.
It was evident that the bill eonld not be passed by
10 o'clock Friday hight, the hour fixed for final ad-
journment, and tbe close was postponed till mid-
night. A Conference Committee was appointed,
and a delay in making their report led to the
adoption of a concurrent resolution firing the
time of adjournment half an hour later. The
elefrtric docks over the doors of the chambers had,
to prolong tbe session even later, been regulated so
that the s^pnd hand took fully 15 minutes to com-
plete its circuit of one minute. It was nearly 1
o'clock when the Conference Committee reported to
the House that the House members had "split the
difference" with the Senate members and reduced
the appropriation to $425. The Senate even then
refus*Hl to concur, and insisted npon the Item being
struck out altogether. At the same time they called
upon the House to make tbeirappearance in tbe Sen-
ate Chamber for final adjournment, and subsequently
refused to agree to the House resolution to prolong
the session to 1 o'clock. The House members were
indignaut, and tbe Senate was denounced in unmeas*
used terms. It was evident that the Senators could
not be dissuaded from their course, and the House
fittally agreed to eliminate the item from tbe bill.
The measure as amended waf> concurred in bv both
houses an hour after the time fixed for the dose of
tbe session had gone by.

STILL LOVES TB:E GIRL WHO POZSOHXD
HIM.
The Lancaster (Penn.) Fxaminer.ot March 30
contains this curious story : ** Some time ago there
was a bam burned down in York County nearly op-
posite Marietta, but a few mites from the river. The
clrcomstances of the bnminic were very suspicious.
The owner, who had gone to chur^ prior to tbe
buminiF. laid the blame upon a young man wholiad
been paying attentions to his daoghter, and chafed
him as being the incendiary. This he easily proved
was false. Xhe bam was heavily insored, and the
insurance company invesuoated the cause of the flz«,
and finally proved, throush the young man that was
charged with the crime, that it was tb* ownar who
had fiird the building before he went to church.
Thus tbe. former lost Us insurance moncgr
tbroiigh the efforts of the man whom he had accnseo,
and the Reguter «ajs he laid plana to be revenged.
Some time afterward the daughter invited the yonns
man to call upon her. which he did — no doubt the
attraction ret being great to him. While there she
Ssve him some cake, of whldi fae ate baartUy. On
ts way boms he fait Tory nnwell, and when he ar-
rived at home was taken with severe pain In tlus
stomach. It was afterward found that tiui eakehad
been poisoned ; he had taken too mnch of ^ widoh
acted as an emette. and the whole waa east up, or be
no doubt would have died. No Ifol action waa
taken against tbe yooitf girl by him, and to-day ttiat

The Honey market exhibited a hardening
tendency daring the week, as it nsnally does ac
this season, when cnrrency is shipped to. the in-
terior to effect the April settlements. The pre-
railing rate for call loans was 7 ¥ cent; bnt on
ieveral occasions as high hs 1-32 ¥ cent, per
diem and idterest was paid for aceommoosc
tions. £Iverjr sach adrauce in rates, however,
brought ont free offeringi a< capital, wiiich
promptly relieved the market from stringency.
&part from the annual shifting of loans at this
time, there is no doubt that arttfleial manipo-
lation, designed to affect the principal stocks,
tiad much to do with the hardening of rates.
Prime mercantile paper was scarce and was
Dominally quoted at 4^ to 6 ^ cent., according
to time of maturity.
Tbetoreign advices reported a feveridi and
onsettled feeling in the European majrkets for
leeurlties, due, of course, to the critieal rela-
tions between England and Kussia. At Lon-
don, Consols declined to 9454, recovering sub-
sequently to 94 11-16 for money and 94'2i for
the aceoant. The Bank of England lost bullion
to the amoant of £419,000 during the fiscal
week ending Wednesday, and £191,000 addi-
tional has since been withdraiiTi from the Bank
on l>alance. The proportion of reserve to lia-
bilities was 32 1-16 '*► cent., against 33 3-16
the previoos week. The Directors, at their
weeUy court on Thursday, decided to allow the
rate of discount to remain 3 ¥ cent., the rate
for three months' bills in the open market
being up to 258 ¥ cent United States twnds
were strong and hi^^her, new 4^s rising from
10334 to 10418, 1867s from IO7I2 to lOSi^S
108»g, 10-40s from 105% to IO6I4, and new
Psfrom 104Ss to lOSSg. American rsiltray
shares were also strong, Erie gainine Xi. Illinois
Central i^, and Pennsylvania and Reading 1^2
¥ cent each on the week's transactions. Bar
silver declined from 54S8d. to 54led- ¥ ounce,
English standard. At Paris, Rentes rallied
from the decline of the prevloos week and ad-
vanced 2 ¥ cent. The Baok of France during
the week lost n>eeie to the amount of 5,200,-
OOOf. and the Bank of Qermany 23,072,000
marks.
In the Sterlihg Exchange morketthe business
for the week was only moderate and the rates
obtained not nearly as high as those of the pre-
vious week. The foreign bankers had allowed
their balances to accumulate abroad, thinkine
that rates very nearly np to the shipping point
coold be obtained ; bat the light demand from
bond dealers, as well as the continued supply of
commeroial bills, with a feeling, also, that the
latter would (in ease of trouble abroad) increase
rather than diminish, caused bankers to offer
bllla at liberal concessuns from the nominal
asking rates. In addition to these facts we learn
that large lots of sterling are still held on spec-
ulative account, a circumstance which is cer-
tainly not calculated to add strengUi to the
market Early in the week the leading draw-
firs reduced the nominal asking rates l^o., to
$4 87 and $4 89 1,2, and at the close actual
business was -on the basis of $4 86 3 $4 8OI4
for bankers' 60 davbiUs, $4 88!li3$4 89 for
demand, $4 89i3®$4 89\ for cable transfers,
and $4 843 $4 8432 for commercial 4>ms on
London. ^
Gold declined, on the weakness of the ex-
ehangs market from 101% to 100 7g, and
closed at the lowest figure. Cash Gold was oc-
casionally very scarce, and as high aa7 ¥ cent
was paid for carrying, the rates for the week
ranging between'7 and 3 ¥ cent
Qovertiment bonds were strong, and advanced
a fraetion, but the improvement did not keep
pace with their advance in the London market
In fact, holders at the other side seem con-
Tineed, from the readiness with which Imported
bonds are taken by investors here, that United
States securities are about the very safest
they can cling to. especially in the present
critical state of tx>litical Affairs in Europe. The
business dtiring the week was brisk, the inquiry
kfeing made chiefly by sihall investors from all
parts of the country. Railroad bonds were ac-
tive, the transactions footing up about $1,500,-
000. Prices were for the most part higher,
especially for the Ohio and Mississippi, Wabash,
New-Jersey Central, Kansas Pacific, Michigan
Central, and Port Wayne issues. The issues of
tba Uidon and Central Pacific Roads were weak
and declined. State bonds were dull.
. The itoek speeulatioa thronghont the week
was, except at rare intervals, ebaracterized by
a vety DQoyant feeling. The de&lin^ were
widely dlstrilmted, several shares which had
fcra long time past been neglected attracting
attention. While the advance in picices was,
dunbtless, in some measure due to artificial
manlpniation, there can. at the same time, l>e
no donbt that the outside public, wno, for ob-
Tions reasons, were compelled to abstain from
stock speculation for some years past have
■osdn made their appearance as buyers In Wall-
itraet, thongh not, up to the present, to
any eonsldersble extent Among the . ele-
ments in the speculative altaatiott whieh
still operate to impart strength to the
market are the indications of a reviv-
ing boainess, the Increased earnings of the
rauroada, and the favorable reports, not only
in regard to the receipts of produce at the great
Westam eentrea. but likewise respecting the
blight prospects that the harvests of the year
will be still more abundant than those of the
laat Agratifylngincident of the Week was the
zestotatloa of Michigan Central to its old-time
Dodtlon M divldeBd-paying stoek. The general
snarkat elOaed strong, at a sharp recovery from
to littiaedtataly pteeedinic naeilon eaosed by
TaaUntlani.

Stalai, Hon. Hannibal WatwHn branded aa 'the
greateat crime of the ace.' "
There waa not a Taeant leat In the hall, and manr
pejaona stood in long rowi against ths waila. Mr.
Bamnm's addreaa waa preceded bj someTetypleaaant
slDging br a namb«r of little girla, and a solo bj Miss
MogEle Dronunond, a young lady with an unasnally
iweet and strong Toice. While this lady was alnglng,
Mr. Bamom kept hia eyes fixed intently upon her,
as tboqgh deUberating whether or no to engage her
for the great, triomphan^ orerwhelming, and "only
{reateit show on earth." When the lady sat down,
Mr. Bamnm clappea his hands londly. Ur. William
H. Hnndy, the newly-rr-eleeted President of the so-
ciety, Introdneed the speaker.
"1 propose," aald 3ir. Bamnm, "to give yon a
few off-hand remarks, founded on experience and
common sense. I do not pretend to the slightest
sloqneoee in the world, and I would not display it
kore. if I had it. This is a subject that needs sense,
not eloquence. The longer 1 lire, the more 1 feel it
our duty to fulfill the great eleventh commandment
—to loTe onr Creator and onr fellow-man. I was
myself reaened firom a meat danger, and I feel It my
duty to help to reeene others. I am nearly 68 years
old. and I drank a little early in life, but not much.
In 1841 or 1842 I crossed the Atlantic with Tom
Tbumb. [laoghtei;] and In England I learned really
to drink. I met many people there who really had
nerer tasted water. I fell Into the habit of drinking,
and during the fonr yean that I spent
In Europe It kept growing stronger and
stronger. M^ greatest nride in the Oriental
villa that I built at Bridgeport [laughter] was In my
well-filled wtDe-cellar — somethlDe, as I thought, of
reapectabllity. Bat I saw that I was aolng to de-
straedon. and I came to the condaslon that my only
aalvation was to break it oft. I was always more or
lesa sick when I drank. I broke the thing iquare
off; since then 1 hare drank nothing stronger than
tea or coffee, and have hardly known since an ache
or a pain. [Applanse.] I shoald hare been In the
grave long ago If I had kent on. [Applause.] It is
the most colossal evil on the face of God's earth. Ita
pathway is mArked with blood from beginuingto end.
Other evils are nothing compared with it Six htm-
dred million dollars are spent In this country every
§for drinks. £ven the animals won't drink
ra, 1 tell you, aa a ahowman. you can't make
Bis dllnk whiaky. They know better. Ahun-
thonaand dollars are spent every day in New-
York for drinks, and It Is always the best men who
dztek. The meanest man yon know — think of him —
ha 4ont get drunk, he'a too mean."
Mr. Bamum baa a stock of stories bigger than one
at his own elsphanta. Most of them are new, and
thayare all good. He interspersed them thickly
I his facts, and kept the audience In a continual
"A market gardener." continued the speaker,
** fall into the habit of drinking, and drank' to excess.
Ba used to come home very drunk nearly every
n%fat. One night his wife made np her mind to give
hSa a leetniv in the morning. So when he came oat
1b the morning, with his head tied up in a handker-
. chief, and led the horse to the trough to drmk, she
igaidtohim; ' Pat, why can't voa be like yer bdrae,
...band stop drinking when ye've lisdenongh f He's the
- more sensible baste of the two.' 'Ah, Nancy,' Pat
- replied. ° if there was another horse at the other end
^ of lbs trough saying all the time, " Here's yer good
*~ tssaltb, ma boy," he'd kaoe on drinkine all day.' "
Xalk about drinking a man's health with whisky. It
Is like drinking infever from a death-bed. Thereisno
mors real vitality in a glass of whisky than In a
pomd of trapenny nails. One time when I was
trawellng In Wisconsin 1 met a physician, and asked
him whether he sometimes prescribed brandy for his
patients. 'No,' said ha, 'never. The brandy we
get hese has been adulterated a dosen timea before it
reaches ns, and by the time we get it there Isn't
more ttian a taUeapooatnl of brandy in a hogshead.
But I sometimes preseriba a little of our native
- whisky, which is comparatively pure, but new.'
'How much nntrlment la there in a gill of whiaky t'
I asked him. ' Aa mueh aa a horsogets out of a spnr
In his side, ' he replied. ' It only muee him go ahead
faster. A horse could live as long on spurs as a man
on whisky.' [laiughter.] You most keep s clear
brain if you are to be healthy or happy. My red
Boaa la an old one that I got 40 years ago." [Ijaugh-
t«r.)
"intheoldtlmea,"said Hr. Bamum, "the doc-
tors used to pay a great deal of attention to the
mothers who bad young children. If one of them
aald to the doctor, ' Doctor, the baby Is very cross,
aaderieaagreat deal; what shall I do for him 1'
the doctor wonld say, ' Oh, drink a good milk punch
yourself, and that will make the baby all right.'
The mother would drink the punch, and In a littla
while, with a dose of seeond-hand punch in ita
stomach and brain, the baby would drop off to sleep.
It was half drunk. If you don't believe that that
waa the way it operated let the father
^ drink the pnneh, and see what effect that
wonld have upon the baby. I used to know a grocer
ap to Connecticut, 20 years sgo, who had these
receipts for adultarating liquors tliat I hold in my
hand. His whla^ate holes through his tin measures
In fonr weeka. The receipt for reviving stale ale is :
* put in about 10 pounds of putrid horse-flesh to
make It foam.' Smoking Is nearly as bad, but not
i|ulte. I smoked my 10 dears a day till 14 yean
igo, and have never smoked since then, and I sever
Speaking of his dislike for Intemperate people, Hr.
Bamum said: "lemploy nearly 1,500 men. There
ase not 50 of them who touch Intoxicating liquor at
all, and these few know that aa soon as I can get
equally competent men who do not drink they will
have to leave. 1 am in favor of every kind of a law
that will help drive out this habit, but I believe more

31r. Bamnm spoke for folly an hour, being Inter-
rUDted every nduute or 'two by laughter and ap-
planse. Whan be had resumed ma seat the temper^

■ The venerable Beetor of St. George's Prot-
estant Episcopal Church, Rev. Dr. AStephen H. Tyns,
St., was sufficiently strong yesterday to occupy his
-pulpit, after an absence of three weeks. His sermon
was of only ordinary tntereat up to the concluding
portion, wherein he referred to the approaching close
of hla regular ministry In the church. His last words
were: "In the name of my undying, unchanging
Lord, I entreat you to cast away every weight, to
break the fettan of every lust and every habit, to
eonseente all that remains of life for yon to Him
who loves you, and gave Himself for you. Olve
ioy In heaven by your real, true repentance for long
ndulgence in rebellious wandering in sin ; give Joy
to mazTT whom you love on earth bv your sincere
sonveision to a waiting Saviour. Let the closing
years of your earthly life be thankfully devoted
fioan nndoing of all tlw evil influence of years cone
by ; In a grateful conservation of tbe remnsnt which
you may still enjoy to the removal of all evils ro-
BuUlnic from an evil past ; to tho blessing of your
hoasebold with a trulr Godly infinenee; to the guid-
ing of yoor children to a Eiaviour's love, and, in a
Saviour's example, to the salvation of the world
around yon, the reponslbllity of which depends so
much upon yon; and, permit me to say, to the pra-
..MmBlon for a meeting with a Pastor to whom you
Have always so kindly ministered, and wdose voice
9f affeetlooate gratitude and unfeigned love is so
»oon to be heard among you no more. To many of
you this Is the last time that Voice will be heard.
And to God our Saviour be all the glory for tbe mer-
ciea and blessings we hsve so long and so
much enjoyed toeether in ttiis home of our happy
ssaamblager" Whila tne sermon of yesterday was
not dealgned by Mr. Tyng as a farewell to bis con-
gregation, it Is In effect such, for the reverend gen-
tlemen is so weak and suffen so much from nervous
affection that he doea not feel assured that he will
be able to preach again before the end of hla ralnla-
try In May. Bven if he should beeome stronger he
will not preach a distinctive farewell aermon. Dr.
Tyng regards the severance of his relatione with St.
George's Church, after 33 yean, with great regret
KUd sorrow. He hss been In the ministry for 59
years, and is now in the seventy-ninth year of his
age. Ha was bom In Newbnryport, Maaa., in 1799.

Plymouth Chnrefa wu packed to ejcQess y9»-
terday morning. Hr. Beecber arrived early, looklnc
tbe picture of bealtb after hU jonmey. In bU
.prmjer be aaked to be guided, not hj " tbat inflnnlty
called reaaoo,' not by doctrinea or regtstered
thonshta. bat by purity of b««rt» He deproeated
brooding over pact torrqwi, and said tbat tbe tend*
eney ilumld be awi^ ^a tbinga done and toward
tbinga to be done.
Mr. Beeeber'8 text was Hebrews iL, 14 to 18 in-
eloslre. In whleb tbe Redeemer isdeseiibed aa a
Hlgb Priest, meoiatisg for men's sins andtablog
apon Himself man's nature In order bettec to saecor
tbe tempted. He said tbat this book wa« wonder-
fall7 interesting. To the Jews it most bave been
tbe most lordly of all letters erer written. It waa
treated with an Oriental ferror of feeling tbat waa
pecnliarUy Jewish. Its object waa to establish a
parallel between Jestu Christ and the Hltb
Priest, who was the strong point in Jew-
iah economy. The function of tbe BIsrb
Priest was absolute mercy ; nothing else.
The High Priest was the one Dersonage to whom tbe
whole Jewish people could Jock with unswerving
confidence. How different were the ideas of a re-
tribntlTe God and of an abstract Ood, that came
afterward— ideas which a few are still able to ac*
cept ! The other idea was founded on man's sinful-
ness, ignorance, and helplessness. It does not re-
quire a doctor to tell a ouui that he is blind, or lame,
or suffering. He knows it himself, and conscious-"
Bess of stnfalnesa and helplessness will be conceded
to-day by all men uoless an argument be started with
tbem OB the subject, tiome men will argue on aoy-
tbtng. The power of receiving revealed truth, he
said, must be limited by the man's receptive ca-
pacity. God might reveal honesty to a fox, but he
would no longer be a fox. There has been a growth
in religion. Growth was a word tbat would not be
so apt to scare people as evolntion, and so the speak*
er used it. The early thoogUt of God was of one
who thundered and smote, and this was taken from
nuui's natural sarroundlngs. As men grow more civ-
ilized moral ideas became attached to physical ideas
of God. The strong brute developed into a warrior
who had traits to be admired, and from the warrior
came tbe King and the Jad^e, whose mlnist rations
wen* tinged with a conception of self denial and
kindness. At last, men's receptivity became devel-
oped, until Qod was knonii as a UDlversal Fnther ;
one, it is true, irho still rode on clouds and
dashed men into bell — the latter idea being undoubt-
edly taken from the lightning, which flashes down
from tho sky and bums what it touches. All through
the Old Testament may be seen the gradual develop-
ment of the Idea of God. When It came to the
latest revelation, tbe idea of fatherhood stood aside
to admit of an intermediate exhibition. Christ
came Into the world to represent the divine srmpa-
thy with sin. He took upon Himself the lowliest
human conditions, and He selected aa His Diitclples
the most degraded of the Jews. Had He drawn
about Him wise and noble men it would bave been
said, S8 it is said to-day, " That is good for you, but
not for us." *' Infidels." said Mr. Beecher. •' Ms* In
round. red-hot logic that Christ waa born
illegitimate. £ven If this were so, I wonld
rejoice at it. It Was part of his mis-
sion to be bom more Ignoble than
any other man, if that were possible. His illegiti-
macy would not shake my faith in ffim a pnrticle.
Became to be the brother of every human being
down to those who are so low that everything of
which men are ash.«med clusters around them." It
would be blasphemous. conUnaed the speaker, to
suppose that ail of God was hidden in that baby
brau. Christ came to be a vagabond child — a b^-
gar's brat — hunted about the country by Sheriffs and
Constables. The result was that he understood, from
the standpoint of human experience, every human
failiof tbat calls for compassion. Special difQcuities
that pow oat of special relationships were unknown
to Him. But he had a large experience. Every
faculty of b«*ing tempted belonglnz to hnmsn nature
beleaged to Him, and so He was able tosuccorevery-
thlng. It is not omnipotence or omniscience that
makes divinity; It is love. Christ Is close at band.
The poorest can think himself Instantly into heaven.
Tbe central force of tbe universe is, therefore, com-
passion.
"It is said," continued Mr. Beecber, "that to
represent Christ Jesu^ as love is to make blm ob-
inteillgible to the lower order. To a certain extent
this is so. If men are barbaric it may be needful
to shake thunder at them, but after they get en-
lightened they know it is only mlmle thunder. Thev
go behind tbe scenery and see the cannon-balls roll-
ing on the sheet-iron. I can't shake any one with
thunder, for I would know all the time that such
.basilar srgumen w belong to a basilar condition. There
are enough other men, who don't know tjils, to preach
such stuff. There were times when this thunder
business oould be believed. There may still be com.
muntties where it would have effect. But in proror.
tion as men grow up in the love doctrine, It becomes
impossible to take any other view. It may be ne-
cessary for the contractor in managing rude, bard
men to come at them with his shlUelah, and with
oaths threaten to break their heads ; but suppose I
should go into mr parlor, and. raising my stick,
shout to my daughters, 'Step around, youvagaDonds!'
what would be thought of me T [Lnuahler-J Yet
some say you have got to bav(> the terror of the law
or lose the love of the Lord. [Renewed laughter.]
'• Some of my cohgr^ation have been brought up
as Unitarians," said the speaker. " They have been
well brought up, too; but they refuse to worship
Christ. Their Father and my Christ is the same.
When you respect Lyman Beecber and I respect my
father, we both reverence tbe same man. If there
was a little difference, Is Qod to be angry over your
petty mistake ? Do yon suppose He stands on a
name 1 It tbe postman delivers to my wife a letter
addressed to me. do yoa think tbat where there Is
such perfect love and unity there is going to be a row
over It ? You may call God what you please, pro-
vided you know what is inside of the term. Worship
is not getting down on your knees and
mnmbling a few prayers. It is the lean-
ing of one person on another, and dynastic dis-
tinctions won't stand the eye. Many persons hope
by and by to attain a condition of soul repose. I
use the broadest expression purposely, because my
mission is not to interpret any sect, but revelation
«nd fundamental religion in a common sense Itcht.
They think when they grow better they will get more
of God. Chrirt re.jected th? rii:htcou». and said He
came as a phvKlcianto thnso who were not righteous
and who needed Him. Wbat would he thought of a
lot of ailiug men first operatint; upon themselves be-
fore going to an eminent surgeon/ Phy>lejans love
loathsome coses of disease from innate benevolence
and remedial mercy. It Is common to hear them
speak of the most beautiful case of pimples they
ever saw In their lives. [Laughter.] It is so with
Gbnst. The worse a man is the l>etter fitted is be
for Christ's ministrations." In conclusion, iir.
Beecher ureed bis hearera to approach Christ with
their burdens and sorrows, and assurea them of re-
lief.

A collision oceurred early yesterday morning
between the fnzx-boat Superior, of tbe Kew>York
and Brooklyn Ferry Company*! Une, and tbe
schooaar John W. Hoostoa. Fortaxuately Ibere wen
noliTetloat,bnithre9of tbeinale paasencan vet*
badly injuxed. The fccldent oceurred oS ner No.
56, East River, at 12»M o'clock. At tbe p4dBtwbs«e
the boats came together three i^an extend Into the
river a distance of 300 feet from the shore. The
freight depot of tbe New.!^Ten Batlzoad ocem>les
tbe lower one of these piers. ^hfSuperior left her
dock at Roosevelt-street at 12:30 o'clock, and when
almost abreast the New-Haven pier her pilot saw the
sails yf a vessel moving toward t&e stream on the
other side. The night waa dark, and tb^ sky
overcast, ■ and as tbe direction in which
the yeesel was fSpiag was not apparent,
the pilot rang a signal to the euglBeer to go ahead
with all ipeod, trusting to the chance of passing tbe
sailing craft without a collision. Before the Scpe.
rior had cleared the xessel, however, the latter
struck abaft tl^ wheel In the ladles' cabin. Her
bowsprit rippedppen the light woodwork and laid
the side bsre. ^f nry Bennett, a young man who
was sitting at the angle of the wheel-hoase and outer
wall, was struck In the back by the bowsprit, and
the force of the blow threw him agahist tbe
opposite wall of the cabin. Bis left thigh
and right shoulider were badly bruised,
but he received no other serioas injuries.
By his side was a companion— Frank '^all— who es-
caped uninjured. Midway in the same cabin were
sealed Georpo W. Walltni and John Dalev. of Ko. 63
South Third-street, Williamsburg, Daley was
bruised on the knees and received a bad scalp wound,
and the lobe of his left ear was nearly cue off. Wall-
ing w.-is crushed between some of the timbers and his
thighs were bruised. He was also struck In
the - hesd and received Internal Injuries.
There were only eight or ten nersona In
the cabin, and tbe others escaped without
Injury. Tha^excitement on board was intense, and
it was at first thought that some of the passengers
bad been thrown overboard, but the rumors to that
effect proved groundless. The Superior proceeded pi
her slip at Williamsburg and landed her passenirai \
after wh|ch she waa laid up at the foot of South Ele -
entb-street. Superintendent Chappell, of tbe fen^^>
company, estimated the damage to the Superior at
$500. None of the crow of toe schooner were In-
jored. The force of the collision drove her
around to the pier, and she waa made fast to
a scow At tbe foot of Jackson -street. Her master,
Capt. Ambrose Conright. estimated the damage, to
h's vessel at about $100. Her bowsprit was broken
off close to the hull and her figure bead carrledaway.
Her deck was littered with the lisbt wood work of
the ferry-boat. Capt. Conright said he was just
hoisting sail preparatory to starting for t-^eorge's
Island for a loaa of brleka. The ferry-boat came
suddenly upon him, and never paused In her course,
but crashed into the bowsprit of the schooner.
The pilot of the Superior was George S. Tuthlll.
wbo has been in the employ of the New- York and
Brooklyn Ferry Company for the past eight years,
and no accident has ever occurred before to a boat
under his charge.
Mr. Walling, one of tbe injured pasxeneers, sidd
be heard no bells run? at the time of tbe coUUlon,
and t>elleved the accident was due to the carelessness
of the pilot of the ferry-boat. His overcoat was
"torn In pieces." and his new hat was lost over-
board, and he proposes to bring a suit against tbe
ferry company for damages.
TBE NEGRO IN THE SOUTH.
SERVICES IN BEHALF OF THE FREEDMEK'S
AID SOCIETY— ADDRESSES BY RET. DB.
BUSH, REVS. £. B. HANOVER AND PHILIP
GERHON— THE WORK OP THE METHO-
DISTS IN EDUCATING THE BLACK MEN.
An "anniversary serTice** In behalf of the
Freedmen's Aid Society was held last evening in the
Forty-thlrd-Street Methodist Episcopal * Church,
whli^ was crowded in every part. The exercises
were opened with the usual singing, prayer,, and
Scripture readlmr. at the conclusion of wUch several
addresses bearing upon the work of tbe society were
made. Rev. E. H. Hanover spoke briefly of the Im-
portance of educating the negro; in order that the
powerful agent, the elective franchise, might become
a power for good In bis hands. Heurged that the work
of the moral and general education of the race should
be committed largely to the bands of the Methodists,
as that Church body was best adapted to reach the
negro's heart. Rev. Philip Germon next read an
essay upon the condition of the negro, urging tbat
he was as susceptible as the whito to education, all
things considered, insisting that the past wrongs to
the black demanded that the negro's education and
elevation should be secured at the bands of the
whites, and, finally, enlarging upon the need for the
establishment of schools and churches In the South
to forward the work of education.
The chief address of the evening was delivered by
Rev. Dr. Rust, of Cincinnati, who was lUtoned to
with marked attention. Ho began with a brief his-
tory of the work of Methodists lu the South. There
were in the South 14 whito and 14 colored Confer-
ences. There were about 2,000 ministers of both
colors, and 195,000 colored and 205,000 white
members in the Church South. In the colored Con-
ferences there were about 6.000 white memoers, and
In the white Conferences there were 7,000 colored
memhe>-s. In point of memt>ershlp tbe Meth-
odist Cbnrch was the third in tbe South,
in btmday-school work second, and In all religious
movements first. Tbe Baptists and the Methodists
created a revival among the colored men, the Bap-
tists beinc long kuown as the "Water Christians,"
and the Methodi^U as the "Fire Christiana." Tbe
speaker thought the latter best— they msde tbe best,
most zealous preachers and workers. During the
past year four edncatloiml institutions had been
erected In tho South hv the Methodists, makina 18
in all. There were lOU.OOO students being taught
in these^l.OOO were preparing lor teaching, 500
were preparing for preaching, and many missionaries
were preparing to go to Africa to teach the native*
there. There was $70,000 expended last year,
and 60 teachers were In the field among the negroes,
some of them being mission aries also. Finding the
potent effect the Roman Catholics bad made by cir-
culating prints and pictures amone the negroes, the
women mls-^ionaries of the Methodists had dmributed
similar designs, and last y«-ar 50.000 pictures, illus-
trative of Chilst's work, were Mcatteredin the homes
of tbe poor negroes. The influence of these pictores
was good beyond description. The speaker knew
that the picture of John \\resley hanging
on the wall made more Methodist preachers
than one . not familiar with the matter
would ever imaglae. At this point Dr. Rust dl-
(iressed to narrate an anecdote of President Hayes,
told* him by a friend. This friend had visited tbe
President when he was (Joveruor of Ohio, and hod
bten shown two pictures — one a representation of
John Wesley leaping from a burning honse Into
tho arms of friends, and the other a portrait of
President Lincoln- *' There, "."tatd Gov. Hayes, point-
ingto Wesley, "is my reli^^on. and there, " waving
his band toward the portrait of Lincoln, "are my
politics." In concluding his earnest appeal for pe-
cuniary aid to further the work of the society the
speaker described graphically the proin'ess made by
the students in the various Institutions. Other ad-
dresses were made, and several hymns were sung,
after which a collection wns taken up and the eoncre.
gation dismissed with the benediction.
CHASOES AGAINST A MILITIA COLONEL,
A great deal of dissatisfaction with thexaethods
of Col. James Cavanagh has existed for a long time
among tbe rank and file of tbe Sixty-ninth Regiment.
Within the past three years tbe charaotor of the offi-
cers of the regiment has been raised by the admis-
sion of some skilled militiamen, and ao*^ earnest de-
sire has been created to make the organization aa
honor to the Stote and to the City. It ' is said tbat
CoL. Cavanagh has endeavored to thwart all efforts
toward reformation, in order that he might conduct
the regiment according to bis own fancy. Twenty,
two of the line and staff officers. Including lieut-CoL
De Lacey and Major Duffy, have signed a petition to
tbe State Adjnti^nt-General asking that Col. Cava-
nagh be taken from the command of the regiment
»ud placed on the supernumerary list. They all^e
that he is totally unable to keep the reiriment in a
state of discipline, andt'nathe nas persistently used
bis power to thwart plans tievised for its better gov-
ernment. They say thnt he lacks the dignity requi-
site in a commanding officer, ai^d that some of the
orders he issues daring drills or dress paradas are
ludlcroiu, while others am insuUlng both to officers
and privates. Other causes of complaint
against Col. CavaUa^ . are tbat he has
never attended the meetings of the di>
vision and brigade officers, thus leaving tbe
T^ment unrepresented when discussions of impor-
tance took place, and that, falling to care for tbe
flnandal condition of the ret^ment, he has allowed
thegastobeshntofffromthe armory, as tbe biitew^Bie
not paid, thus compelling the companies to drill by
can^e-ligbt or not at all. The officers opposed to
Col. Cavanagh say they will resign if be tsnot removed.
Ool. Cavanagh apiiears to have only four supporters
in the Board of Officers. Two of them are Lewreuee
0. Gonldine and Matthew F. Breen. members of bis
■tait who are said to bare never procuted uniforms.
Another Ss a Captain who obtaliied his posttlon
without undergoiDg examination, tbtoogh Cava-

baa been kept la tbe Regiment by tbe Oolone^ not-

fVllfiamH. Smith, the flrat mate of ehaahip
D. B. Eaton, who eoald not be fonhd on Saturday
night, and who, It was then feezed by Us ahlpmates,
bad been lured awav by tbe boardfaurbouse nmnert
to be fonlly dealt With, waa found yesterday In
lAdlow-Street Jail, where he was lodged on Satur-
day night on a warrant issued In a suit for danuifM
brou^t by the runner,. O'Connor, who was shot at
Hoboken. Smith waa fonnd by Mr. Iielehmasteiv
the second mate, with some difficulty, but notbiuf
could be done for blm yesterday. Ifte arrest was
made by a Sheriff's officer wbo brought fonr men
iritbbim. One of these men was named Ohurchill,
who figured in the scene at Hoboken when the board-
ing-bouse runners boarded tbe ship. When Mr.
Smith and Mr. Leicfamaster came on deck to stop the
seamen from leaving, they fonnd Churchill looking
on while several men were ehokhig the boatswain,
whom they bad thrown down on the deck. When
Smith ordered tbem to desist, ChurdiUl drew his re*
volver and declared tbe mates should not Interfere.
It was at this time tbat Smith and I«elchtiiaster
went back to the cabin and got tbrtr rerolven.
When ther returned, eight or ton of the seamen had
gone over the side, and their luggage bad been sent
over into the mnners' boat. Smith ordered the
men back, as they had been articled for a voyage not
exceeding three years, and had served only three
months. When Smith declared be would . fire,
Churchill shouted. ''Fire, and be ,"ancl the
boat was pulled away. Two shots were fired wide, and
the boat did not stop. Smith declared he wonld
fire a third sbot into the boat If the men did not re.
tarn, and he fired into it, wounding O'Connor. Capt.
Shaw, of the D. B. Eaton, said yesterday that Smith
was an excellent officer, and that he had idwayi
treatod the men very kindly.
A STRIKING COUBT'SOOM SCENE,
HOW AND WHY DEMOCRATIC PLACE>HOLDERS
FOUGHT IK JUSTICE CALLAHAK^B PRES-
ENCE.
The approach of an election in thla City is
always heralded by the occarrence of faction fights
In the First Assembly District In tbat locality
every adult Is a politician, and every youth hopes to
be an Assemblyman or a Civil Justice when he
reaches msnhood. The number of local leaders
therein Is limited only by the number of tonements.
The existence of so many ** Influential" persons In so
small a district leads to contentions over the dls*
trihutlon of offices, and to conflicts dictated by
jealousies. These tunally begin six months previous
to an election, and continue until after tbe polls are
dosed. The consequence of these "scrimmages " is
that few of the local "statesmen " are witb9ut facial
decorations of court-plaster and yellow paint be-
tween April and November.
Tbe opening fight of the season occurred last Tues-
day afternoon in the office of the Clerk of the First
District Civil Court. Justice Callahan had just
tomed several persistent litigants out of court, and,
wearied by much mental labor, had left bis seat to
seek repose. Unfortunately for bis peace of mind,
he forgot to turn his brother Patrick into the street
at the irame lime. It may be, however, that he did
not forcet, but felt It would be better not to Inter-
fere with Pat, first, because he Is his brother,
and second, because he Is the janitor of the
court, retained in place through the Infinenee of
John Fox. Besides being a brother and a janitor, Pat
Is also a burly fellow, with a loud voice and an affec-
tion for green plaid pantaloons. When Jtistli-e Cal-
lahan desctinded from the bench he went into the
office of his clerk. Terry Duffy, an ex-AssUtsnt
Alderman. There were a number of Influential First
Warders In the office at the time, among whom was
Mr. William Crummie, a good-natured, gllb-talldug
person, who was once a candidate for the Assembly.
His friends say that John Fox, whose follower be
once was, can best tell how he was defeated. This
implies political treachery on the part of Fox. Mr.
Croramie Is now a clerk in the Reeister'a office, and
a free-lance in local polities. He talked to Terry
Duffy, saying, in a loud voice, that those wore re*
markable speeches that ex-PoUce Capt. Halpln and
*' Snooty " Burns made at last Saturday's meeting of
tbe Anti-Tammanyites. He added tbat he could
not understand how Cant. Halpln could have
truthfully said that be had voted the
Democratic ticket since 1842, when in 1876
he supported Hayes against Tilden. and was, in
name. Treasurer of the district Republican funds
with which, however, another " statesman" ran
away. Patrick Callahan heard Mr. Cmmmie's re-
marks, and, disliking tbem and him, said: "Idon't
want you to talk about my friends." Crummie re-
plied: "You loafer. I don't talk to you," and turned
from blm in a contemptuous manner. Callahan was
annoyed, snd bitterly remarking "G'long," he
struck Crummie a powerful blow on the side of the
face. There was Immediately a " rumpus" of tbe
moat interesting character. The furniture was over-
turned, and tbe combatants fought all round the
room. When the conflict was over, the court-room
and office were filled with irterested persona, but no
policeman was called. Crummie was escorted away
oy friends, and Pat Call:ihan washed his wounded
face at tbe hydntnt in the court-room, pumping the
water himself, and thus doing for tbe assuacement
of his pain<i the single act his enemies say he does
occasionally, to be able to swear each month that he
performs a service in return for his payment as
janitor.
A PAIS OF MODEL CLIPPER 8SIP8,
Two magnificent cUpoer ships, built on the
Clyde, are now lying in this port They are owned
by Messrs. J. & A Allen, of Glasgow, Scotland, and
are assigned tb Messrs. Henderson Brothers, agents
of the Anchor Line, whose flag flies with the red,
whito and blue pennant of the owners from their
mastheads. One of them Is tbe ship Glenmoraf,
lying at the Columbia Stores, in Brooklyn, which
was described some time ago in Thk Timx& A
model of her hull, which attracted the attontion of
all Interested in marine architecture, at the Phila-
delphia ExT'Osition. now adorns one of the walls of
tbe Maratlme Exchange. ' The second clipper Is the
RomsdoJ. which Is dlxcharging at P.er No. 1 North
River. She Is of 1, 887 tons register. 276 feet long.
41 feet beam. 231^ feet depth of hold, and stows a
cargo of 2.800 tons. She has visited this port once^
before, and npon returning to Liverpool made the"
voyage in' lo days. Twelve days ont^from New-
York She arrived off Old Kinsale Head, but, becom-
ing becalmed, was three days longer in getting to
the Liverpool docks. The Romsdal is under com-
mand of Capt. John Jarman, who made some re-
markably quick voyagea on the clipper Stratbeam.
She has a crew of 34 men.
RECKLESS NAVIGATION IN THB RITBRS.
The training-ship Minnesota, which baa been
inWlntor Quarters at the Brooklyn Navy.yard^ is
about to resume h«r station on tbe North Biver.
During last Summer several complainta were made
by Capt- Johnson, and other officers of the vessel,
3:hlle lying off the Battery, of the recklessness of
sptains of steam-tugs and passenger boats. The at-
tention of the Pilot Commissioners waa called to
these complaints, and action was nrced on tbe part
of the civil authorises to Insure the protection of
small boats by obliging larger vessels to blow the
necessary signals when approaching. Several live%
were lost by the gross carelessness and Inhumanity
of the masters of tugs and other steam-boats. On
Sept. 15 one of the apprentice boys on board of the
Supply was going ashore in one of the small boats,
when the boat was run down by tbe propeller Bruin
and the boy was drowned. Complaints were also
made that excursion steamers ran so close to tbe
Minnesota as to make it dangerous for boats to ptiU
around the ship. To avoid these dangers, the Minne-
sota will be anchored in the North Biver, opposlta
West Twenty- third-street.
OBSTRUCTING WORK ON A RAILROAD
A suit is now pending in the Supreme Court,
Kings County, Involving the title to a piece of land
adjoining the Bushwick Creek lu Brooklyn, the own-
ership of whieh is claimed by Joha Alexander on the
one hand, and by tbe heirs of the Cunningham es*
tato on the other. The heirs of tbe Cuonlngham ea.
tato gave the Manhattan Beach Railroad Company
permission to lay a track across the property, and the
eompaay made preparations to eommenee operatloiis
yesterday. Mr. Alexander, however, learned of what
was golnic on, and during Saturdax ulght he caused a
high hoard fence to be erected across tbe groend in
dispute, and also procured the services of a squad of
Police from the Seventh Precinct to protect him and
prevent the railroad eompaay from mtorfeting with
his fence. The counsel of tbe company viMted tbe
police Central Office yesterday and asked Inspector
Woddy to withdraw bis men, but he refused, and the
work of grading for the railroad track was not begun.

HB ATTEMPTS TO BURN A HOUSE WITH TEN
INMATES— PBTTT JEALOUSY AND RE-
VENGE THE MOTIVE.
From Uu Botton JoumaL
The investigations of the Police into the at-
tempt to bum the dwelling-house of George Hawkes,
in Lynn, on Monday night, resulted yesterday in the
arrest of two young men named Edward Baker and
Frank Jones. Neither is a resident of Lynn. Baker
living at No. 272 Bunker Hill-street, Cuarlestown,
and Jones In the town of Everett. It appears that
Baker, who Is 22 years old, has been waiting upon a
daughter of Mr. Hawkes for a number of months ;
tbat he recently becam^ jealous on account of a
supposed intimacy of the yoang lady with other
young men; that he attempted to noison bimseif at
his home iu Charlestown, and that^ upon his re-
covery he shot himself in the head with a bullet,
whieh attempt to take his life was also uusuecetefni.
Upon his rpcovery from the wound in his head,
he visited Miss Hawkes at Lynn and again
attempted to renew his old Intimacy with her, bnt
she again refused to keep his comoany. Thereupon
he formed the plan of barning her father's house,
wtiiehplan. It Is charged, he put into execntion on
Monday night. Baker and Jones bave been Inti-
mate iriends from their boyhood. From the con-
fession of Jones it appears that Baker induced
him to accompany him to Lynn to set the
fire ; that Jones and Baker walxed to Lynn from
Everett on Monday night ; that they watched Mr.
Hawses' house nntU aU the inmates had retired to
bed, and thac both Jones and Baker entered tbe
house through a window into the front room, took a
lamp from a table, poured the oil upon the
floor, applied a match, and then walked
back to Everett. Tbe fire smoldced and
burned icself ont, with only a small dam-
age to the house, and the incendiary attempt
was not discovered until the rising of the family in
the morning. Baker was arrested at his home in
Charlestown at 11 o'clock Thursday morning by
Police Officer William S. Waitt, and Jones was ar-
rented about the ^ame hour by Polioe Offirer Barrel!
at his home in Everett. Jones has also conressed to
being concerned in several attempts to bura dwell-
ing-houses in Everett. He is a hard character, and
has served several sentences for petty crimes and
misdemeanors. At the time of the attempt to bum
Mr. Hawkes' hoose there wore 10 persons sleeping
In the house.
Both Jones and Baker confess to have been con-
cerned In the attempt at arson, but each lays tbe
guilt of entering the house and setting the fire upon
the other. Both men confess that their designs were
perpetrated for revenge, and that it was their pur-
pose to bom the house and also the whole family
sleeping therein.
Ay IMPROPERLY OOS8TITUTED GRAND
JURY,
A tele;?ram from Champaign, ni., 3d inst, to
tbe Indianapolis Journal describes as follows the
awkward results arising from having a Ciraud Jury
imnroperlj eonstltnted : "Judge C. B. Smith, iu the
Champaign Circuit Court, rendered a decision to-day,
on a motion to quash proceedings in a certain case.
that all proce^dini^ and IndictmeDts by the Grand
Jtiry for the month past were illegal, on the ground
that the Sheriff, finding that one man summoned bs a
grand Juryman could not be compelled to serve, in-
sorted tne name of another man in the »nmmons,
and he occupied the place. A large number of men
have been indicted and armsted, and some have
pleaded guilty and been sentenced. The decision of
the court renders null the proceedings, and the blun-
der will cost the citizens of the county several tnou-
suid dollars." ^^^^^

London, April 8. — ^In the House of Lords
€bSa aftsmoon Lord Beaconsfleld moved the ad-
dress of thanks to the Queen for her Majesty's
Hessage eaUinfc out the reserves, and followed
with a speech of over • an hour's dura-
tion, trhieh was repeatedly cheered.
After a retrospect of the GtoTemmenfs
past policy, he criticised the treaty of San Sto-
fano, drawing conclusions similar to those con-
tained in Lord Salisbury's dispatch. Althon;;h
every article of the treaty was a deviation from
the treaties of 1896 and 1871, he would not
call them violations, because bad they been
considered at the congress, as Enf;land de-
sired,* they might have been regarded as
suggestions. He showed that the posses-
sion of Bessarabia was not a trifling
local interest Lord Palmerston had strongly
insisted upon its cession to Koumania as in-
volving the Independent navigation of the
Danube. The congress could not take place
after Bnssia's refusal to conform to
her previous engagements and to the
Treaty of Paris. He pointed out various
ways in which the existing situation in
the East Imperiled the British Empire. The
Egyptians once threatened Constantinople ; there
was consequently no reason why the Russians
might not march to the Suez Canal. He could
not conceive why England should be unarmed
when all the other powers were arming. The
British Empire WMit not only be enjoyed but
maintained.
Lord Granville criticised the details of the
^vemmejit's past policy, but declared he
would not commit himself or his friends on toe
present question, but leave the Grovemment to
their own responsibility. Upon a general re-
view of the situation he drew conclusions favor-
able to peace.
Lord Derby denied that calling out the re-
■«rres was the sole or principal cause of his
idilTerence with his late colleagues. He said
matters at present were at a dead-lock where
neither side would give way for fear of
a loss of dignity. He, for one, would not
press matters at this moment and increase
groundless irritation. He denied the exist-
ence of an emergency justifying the calling
out of the reserves. The only conceivable mo-
tive for haste — of which, however, he woiild not
secQse the Government — was to take advantage
of the war feeling in the country. Even an
Austrian alliance was very doubtful and
*n the other powers were certain to
atand aloof. Why, under these circum-
stances, should England be not drift-
ing, but rushing into a purposeless warl
He admitted that circumstances might force
England into a war, but at present he could see
no ground therefor.
Lord Cairns said the «i»««iin«M of the Inereaae
of the Army did not justify Lord Derby's infer-
ences.
The Earl of Carnarvon said Lord Salisbury's
dispatch showed that if England entered the
congress she would do so with her hand upon
the sword.
The Duke of Argyll avowed bis belief that
the country was being led to a conclusion which
was concealed from Parliament.
The Sfarquia of Salisbury declared that his
sentiments were the same as at the time of the
Constantinople Conference. Ha did not concur
in the idea that Russia only could establish
good government in the Turkish Provinces.
The Constantinople Conference indicated ample
security for good government without destroying
the authority of the Porte. The Government's
preparations were precautionary, not warlike.
He believed he had grounds for hoping that war
nrould be avoided. If, however, war should
irise, he hoped patriotism would carry the coun-
try safely through it.
The a<fdress was agreed to without a division.
In the tlonse of Commons, Sir Stafford Xorth-
eOte, proposing the address thanking the Queen
for her proclamation, said the calliue oat o;F
the reserves was not intended to alarm the coun-
try by leading it to believe that the circum-
stances were of great national peril. They were,
however, such as rendered it necessary to
put the Army in condition for use without de-
lay. The tone adopted by the speaker was studi-
ously moderate. He said he believed that even
aow Russia, on calmer consideration, would ac-
cede to England's view. If, however, England
were denied the opportunity of participating in
I general European settlement. It was'the duty
}( the Government to see that the interests of
England were no harmed.
Mr. Gladstone said he did not intend to con-
tast the address by offering an amendment, be-
cause the vote on the supplemental estimates
would afford a better opportunity. In discuss-
ing the policy of the Government's
armaments, the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer had fatted to show the
existence of an emergency justifying the calling
out of the reserves. Mr. Gladstone urged the
acceptance of Germany's proposal for a prelim-
inary conference. Lord Salisbury's dispatch
stated the case in a contentious method that
only the meanest attorney wotild resort to.
Mr. Gathome Hardy, Secretary for India,
■aid the people should not be too hasty in con-
eludins that England was isolated. There
were deep interests involved, and he ven-
tured to say Lord Salisbury's circular
would win over others to England's
riew%. It was impossible that any
English Minister could ever desire war, but it
was right to show that England would not al-
low herself to be trodden upon or dishonored
by the greatest power iu the world.
The debate was adjourned ' until to-morrow
nlttht.
LoKOOH, April 9.— The Earl of Derby's state-
ment in the House of Lords yesterday showed
that several differences arose between him and
his colleagues before his resignation. He was
with difBcuity persuaded to assent to the early
summoning of Parliament, and to the six mil-
lion vote. He also stated that in the event of
war all that England could hooe from Germany
was a bare, and not Iwnevolent, neutrality.
The Marquis of Salisbury in his speech
itrongly objeeted to Lord Derby making these
musnai revelations. He said he had no official
Information that Prince Gortschakofl denied
the truth of Prince Ghika's report of his con-
versation relative to Besserabia. If he had such
inf ormation it would be for each to determine
whom be thought more eredlble, GortschakolT

PROSPECT FOR A EUROPEAN CON-
GRESS.
WHAT IS NECESSARY TO PEACE — THE WITH-
DRAWAL OP THE TREATY OR SUBMISSION
TO THE JUDGMENT OP EUROPE — ^APPRE-
HENSION IN VIENNA OROWIXO OCT OP AN
ARTICLE IN A BERLIN JOURNAL.
London, April 8.— The withdrawal of the
treaty of -San Stefano, or its unconidtional
submission to the judgment of Europe, are re-
garded as the only alternatives to war. Lord
Lyons, British .Ambassador at Paris, who was
designated to represent Great Britain at
the congress, returned to that city on
Saturday, which is considered to indicate
that no great hope is felt of a speedy
meeting of the congress. -The feeling at Ber-
lin is still sanguine, though there are no new
facts to confirm it. The belief iu a peaceful so-
lution seems to rest solely on the expectation
that Russia' will yield, not only on the question
of the submission of the treaty to the powers,
but on England's and Austria's essential ob-
jections to the treaty.
Some disquiet is occasioned at Vienna by the
article in the Norddeuttche Zeilung last Friday
referring to the treaty, which, after pointing
out that though the treaty does not affect Ger-
many's interests, the entrance of Rnssia into
antagonism with other neighbors and friends of
Germany cannot be a matter of indifference,
and that Russia can only purchase its com-
plete fullfilment by another war, said that
as England and Austria admit that great
changes are necessary in the East, it was hoped
that, in view of the agreement of Ru.s.<iia, Aus-
tria, and England on this main point, the
common desire for peace would ultimately gain
the upper hand. The Noi'ddmUche Zeitung,
hitherto consistently pro-Russian, lectures both
Russia and Austria sharply for not concerting
an agreement atraut peace while the war con-
tinued. It says: "Though the powers are
agreed in principle Eus-sia has fettered her-
self by the Treaty of San Stefano, in-
stead of informing herself beforehand of
the various views wbich would be taken of the
questions raised by it, while England and Aus-
tria have rendered the position still more diffi-
cult by now putting forward solemn interna-
tidnal protests, instead of formulating their
conditions and reservations before the fall -of
Plevna." Nevertheless, the Sorddeuttelit Zeitung
hopes that iu view of the general desire for
peace an understanding will yet be reache<L
This article caused a sudden cessation of war-
like utterances by the Austrian semi-official
press. The Ministerial Montag't Revue, Issued
fast night, stated that the hope of a peaceful
settlement was justified by the fact that
Prince Bismarck is earnestly exerting
himself to prevent a European con-
flict. Several unofficial . Vienna news-
Sapers, as the iN'eic Free Press, Taghlntt, and
^orgen Post, express. the opinion that this is an
attempt to make Austria participate in the mis-
take of San Stefan'o, and indicates Prince Bis-
marck's desire to bully Austria into a settlement
with Russia. The language of these journals
is very bitter against the German Chancellor.
It is stated from St. Petersburg that Gen.
Ignatieff had abandoned the idea of returning
to Vienna, and was about to start for Constanti-
nople when he was detained to see whether his
services were possibly required at the congress.
St. Petebsbubo, April S.— The..! ?en«.BMSM
says that it is authorized to deny tbat
Russia threatened t-> oppose discussion
of the Bessarabian question by the
congress. The Agence also "states that the char-
acter of the latest news, encourages thebelief of
the possibility of a resumption of the congress
propoaaL
ViTiWA, April 8.— The official Abend-Post
says the latest St. Petersburg news is consid-
ered to indicate that Hu.ssia expects a proposal
for a compromise from some quarter.
LosDOS, April 9. — The St. Petersburg corre-
spondent of the Times says : " The belief
that Germany is abandoning her strictly
passive attitude is rapidly gaining
ground here. It is said that Prince
Bismarck evidently intends to use his influence
In favor of peace. It is supposed that the nego-
tiations for a congress will be recommenced on
some new basis. No answer has yet been sent
to Lord Salisbury's circular."

London, April 8. — Constantinople ad-
vices are conflicting. Some say that Vefyk
Pasha, President of the Council and Minister of
the Interior, is about to resign on account of
illness, and others say he will be forced to retire,:
and will be succeeded by Reouf Pasha, now
War Minister, while Osman Pasha will suc-
ceed Reouf, both being in sympathy
with Hussia. One set of dispatches say
a bona fide return home of Russian
troops has commenced ; another, that only de-
pleted regiments are sent home to recruit,whose
positions are immediately filled by fresh troops
from the North. However, the general impres-
sion of the news seems less pro-Russian than
of late, and there is a feeling here, and in the
European colony at Constantinople, that the
dislike of the Turkish people to Russia is so
great that the Palace and the Pashas would not
dare to venture on a Russian alliance, even if
they wished.
A Reuter dispatch from Constantinople
says: "The Russians, in consequence of
the opposition of the Porte, have again
abandoned their project of embarking at
Buiukdere. The Sultan has asked the Grand
Duke Nicholas when the Russian troops would
evacuate the points on the Turkish side of the
line of demarkation. The Grand Duke, in re-
ply, alluded to the continuance of the Briti.-h
fleet in the Sea of Marmora. Turkish news-
papers have been ordered to cease their attacks
on England."
Renter's Telegram Company has received the
following dispatch from Constantinople : " Mr.
Layard, the British Ambassador, has received
a report from Mr. Reade, the British Consul at
Rustchuk, claiming satisfaction from the Rus-
sian Government for the outrage committed by
Russian troops in entering the Consulate there
and taking possession of Its archives, notwith-
standing that the British flag was hoisted over
the building at the time.

London, April 8. — The movements of the
Russian forces on the Danube and in Roumania
seem to indicate a determination to prepare
thoroughly against the contingency of
an Austrian attack' in the rear. All
the passes oyer the Carpathians prac-
ticable for artillery and trains are cov-
ered by the positions which the Rus-
sians have jiut occupied. Telegrams from
Silistria and Rustchuk say that Rus-
sian troops are constantly moving from
Bnlgaria into Boumania. The Rouma-
nians are stated to be comparatively
quiet again, the Government having success-
fully used Premier Bratiano's absence to secure
Kjnement of action about the protest
^e treaty of San Stefano. Large ship-
ments of powder from Dortmund, Pmsaia, into
Russia are reported.

Washington, April 8. — Tlie last act in
the farce of selecting a Democratic Door-keeper
was enacted to-day in the House to a large and
appreciative audience, who distributed their ap-
plause among the principal actors with a dis-
crimination and liberality which showed famil-
iarity with the merits of the play and impartial
admiration for tbe performers. The farce com-
menced immediately aft r the reading of the
Journal, Gen. ButUr takin r the flor r to advo- ■
cate the claims o.^ G :n. Shields. Tbe Uemo-
erats were uneasy and apprehensive, evidently
fearing that the Re u >lican3 had matured a
plan of action that would result iu annoying, if
it did not actually cleteat fiem. For this rea-
son they showed co dispo-iton to be aggres-
sive, and throughout the day's discussion acted
with unusual cautif-n and leserve. When Gen.
Butler sent to the Clerk's de k to-be read a let-
ter from Gen. Shields, the Dem wrats looked at
him with painful astiniii m 'Ut, as they be-
lieved it was an accepla'jC:^ of the candidature
for Door-keeper. The Republicans, from the
'self-assumed manner of Gen. Butler, could not
conceal their deliaiht at .this unes;pocted auxil-
iary to their campaign.
When it was discovered, however, that the
letter simply solicited Mr. Butler to exert him-
self to have Gen. Shiells' pension increased,
there were many sighs of relief from the Dem-
ocratic side. Mr. Butler acquitted himself to-
day with more credit than upon Friday last,
and made some good points in replying to
the questions tbat were occasionally fired at
him from the Democratic side. Mr. Testes, of
North Carolina, referred to the General's prom-
ise that he would vote for a Confederate soldier
who had been wotmded if Gen. Shields should
not be elected, and asked him what was the dif-
ference between voting for Gen. Field against
a Union soldier and Gen. Field against a civil-
ian 1
To this Gen. Butler replied that there was the
difference between loyalty and treason. Gen.
Shields was a brave Union officer, while Gen.
Field, who had been educated at the expense of
the country, was a traitor, and should have been
hanged for his desertion of the cause he had
been educated at tbe public expense to defend. He
referred to the fact that after the rebellion Gen,
Field expatriated him^lf and accepted service
with the Khedive of Egypt, and he had no evi-
dence that tbe General was not now a subject
of the Kh^ve. Mr. Eden referred to the ap-
pointment of Gen. Longstreet by President
Grant? but Gen. Butler retorted that Gen. Long-
street had i^t only repented, but had given
works meet for repentance before be was ap-
pointed, while Gen. Field had not asked to have
removed the political disabilities imposed by
his act of treason until within the past two
years, when he. perhaps, saw an opportunity of
obtaining preferment under Democratic domi-
nation.
The debate continued for three hours in this
vein, and was participated in hf Messrs. Qy-
mer. Cox, of New- York ; Brsgg and Critten-
den, on the Democratic side, and Messrs. Fryo
and Hale, on the part of the Republicans, all
the speakers eulogizing Gen. Shield.'!, the Re-
publicans insisting that he should be chosen
Door-keeper, and the Democrats holding that
he should receive a higher reward than that
proposed, and calling upon the Republicans to
introduce a measure to place him on the
retired list of the. Army, so that he
would he permanently provided for. Finally,
the previous question was ordered, and Gen.'
Field was elected, the vote standing : Field,
123 ; Shields, 101. Mr. Springer was the only
Democrat who voted for Gen. Shields. After
the Door-keeper was chosen, a bill was offered
by ^}r. Southard, of Ohio, to place Gen. Shields
on the retired list of the Army with tbe rank of
Brigadier-General, and this was passed under
a suspension of tbe rules, only six votes being
cast against it. ^^^^^
CONGRESSIONAL TOPICS.
THE WOOD TARIFF BILL — A VOTE ON THE
PACIFIC RAILROAD SINKING FUND BILL
PROBABLE TO-DAY — MORE BLUKDERIXG
ECONOMY — BUTLER'S SMALL CURRENCY
BILL.
Special Dispatch to the .Vettf. York Times.
Washington, April 8. — Mr. Wood will
make an effort to-morrow to have tbe House
take up the Tariff bill. If Mr.Atkins, Chairman
of the Committte on Appropriations, is well
enough to take charge of the Legislative, Ex-
ecutive, and Judicial Appropriation bill, he will
antagonize that bill -with the Tariff, and ask the
House to dispose of it before going on with Mr.
Wood's bill. It is probable, however, that Mr.
Wood ■will be given an opportunity to-morrow
to deliver his speech explaining the provisions
of his bill.
The Senate failed to reach a vote to-day upon
the Pacific Railroad Sinking Fund bill, and un-
less Mr. Thurman can hold the Senate in a con-
tinuous session, a vote is cot likely to be reached
to-morrow. The Gould lobby are working hard
to secure the adoption of the Blaine amend-
ment, and the indications are that the vote on
that proposition will be very close, with the
chances in favor of its adoption. Mr. Thurman
will make an effort to have a vote reached to-
morrow, and will endeavor to hold the Senate
together until the bill is disposed of.
Another exhibition of the bad management
of the Democrats in their manipulation of the
regular Appropriation bills has just been devel
oped in the Patent Office. The appropriation
for printing specifications and other matters
for the Patent Office is exhhusted, and unless
the Deficiency bill, which is now hung up be-
tween the two hoKses, is speedily passed,
it 'will be impossible to issue patents
to inventors, and It may perhaps become ne-
cessary to suspend the publication of the Pat-
ent Office Official Gazette. In view of the fact
that the Patent Office has covered Into the
Treasury a surpliu o^ver $1,000,000, which
sum has been collected from investors, and
the additional fact that the subseribera to the
Patent Office Official Ooittte have paid their
subscriptions in advance, this deficiency is in-
excusable on the part of Congress, and is woree
than a blunder.
In the House to-day Geo. Bntler bronght foi^
ward his bill to supply what he calls aeon-
yesient enrreney, and which he explained and
advocated in a recent speech during one of the
night sessions. The bill provides for the issue
of fractional notes of the denomiiution of 25
and 50 cents, and requires the Secretary of the
Treaanry to maintain $50,000,000 of such notee
in permanent circulation. The other features of
the bill are of the same wild character. He
moved to suspend the rules and pass the bHl,
pewUng which motiau -the Hooae adjonoied
. vith aa emphatic yell thatdo«e«ot aant wtH
for Butler's bill. The bill is left as the un-
finished business, and will come up on Monday
next

EFFECT.
Special Dispatch to the A'ew- Vort Times.
Washington, April 8. — The statement of
the duties received In 1877 under the existing
law and of the duties that would have been re-
ceived under the bill reported from the Com-
mittee on Ways and Means, which statement
was referred to in these dispatches last night as
having been made by the Bureau
of Statistics, takes j, up the ' schedules
of the Tariff bill, and shows under
each what would have been received under
the new Will, ■and what was received under tbe
existing law, and whether the new bill would
Increase or decrease the duties and bow much.
The following table will show the increase or
decrease in the amount of duties imposed in
each schedule by the new bill in comparison
with the existing law:
ClaM or Omnps. Ineivaae. Decrease.
Cotton and cotton goods. $2,001,460
Earths and efirtbenwore . 479, 943
Hemp, jute, &c 969,410
Liqnors. $539,709
MetaU 257,924
Provisions 2,732
Sugars 4,158,996
Silk and sUk goods 3,014,'284
Spices 550.206 ,
Tobacco 31,791 ,
•Wood 287,362
Woolen goods and wool.. 5,718,360
Sundries 1.243.472
Total $6.5'J2,906 $12,728,743
It will be seen tbat the total increase provided
for in tbe bill is something over $B,500,000,
and tbe decrease is nearly $12,750,000. This
makrsadiffeieuceof over $6,000,000 in arti-
cles that are dutiable under the Wood bill ; but
besides this there are over $3,000,000 of duties
stricken out entirely in the new bill on articles
tbat are now dutiable. Adding these two
amounts together tbe result is that the decrease
from the receipts of 1877 would be $9,404,058.
It is interesting to note tbe arrangement of
~the increase snd decrease of duties with respect
to their protective effect. Over two-thirds of
the increase is placed upon sugars, in order to
protect this industry, which is gix>wing up in
tbe South. A million dollars is made up from
liquors and spices, in ab :ut equal proportions,
the latter being in the nature ot duty on raw
materiMs, which are used by the manufacturers
of this country. The decrease of duty is found
almost wholly upon three classes of goods which
are manufactured in the Northeastern States :
Upon cotton and cotton goods, over $2,000,-
000 ; on silk and silk goods, over $3,000,000,
and on woolen goods and wool, nearly $6,000,-
000. Nearly half a million is also stricken from
the earthenware and porcelain industries.
TBE GETTTSBVRG WAR CLAIMS.
CLAIMS FOR USE AND RENT OP CAMPING
GROUNDS AND BUILDINGS FOR HOSPITALS
BEFORE AND AFTER THE BATTLE RE-
JECTED EY THE TREASURY DEPAKT.'«ENT.
Washington, April 8. — The following deci-
sion from the Treasury Department, regarding the
Gettysburg claims, has just been rendered:
"^o the Secretary ;
These claims, 16 in number, filed in the Antumn
of 1875, are for the use and rent of camping and
parade grounds and bulldinea used for hospitals in
4he Summer of 1863, near the field of the battle of
Gettysburg, Upon the examination of the claims by
the'I'bird Auditor, on April 6, IS76, he recom-
mended an inveslieation of them, and they were
referred by Secretary Bristow to the Department
of Jnstice for tbat panose. They were returned
on April 3. 1878, by the Attorney-General to tbe
Secretary of t'm- Treasury, with the information that
they had been referred to the District Attorney for
the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and that it had
been impossible ti)r him to make a satisfactory ex-
amination of them, and suggesting tbat an investijta-
tton he made by a special agent, or by some one
living in the vicinity. One of the claims ia for
the use of camping grounds for our Army,
jnst before the battle. Another is for
the use of buildings occupied first- by the
rebels as a hospital, for their ■n'onnded, and
the next day by our own troops for the same purpose.
AH of them are for purposes closely connected with
the great battle. The lands and buildings were taken
by our Army without license or contract on the part
of the owner, and the necorus of tbe War Dep.irt-
ment show no action upon the subieet. I think
tliese eases are governed by the following prind-
ciples : The Government has the right, in tbe eon-
duct of war, to use, occupy, or destroy any
and all the property, real or personal, of any citizen,
loyal or disloyal, in any Territory, whether in in-
surrection or not. in actual military operations for
military pnn>oses, as for fortifications, camping
grounds, battle-fields, and hospitals, without legal
liabiiitv to make compeusation for the rent or use
thereof, unless the property hns been regnlarjy ap-
nro; riuted or contracted for by tbe proper of-
firers, as in time of peace. The article of the
Constitution which provides that no person shall be
deprived of property without due process of law, and
that private property shall not betaken lor public
use without just compensation, bas no application to
such cases Such laws are silent in war, and the
laws of war. which are recognized by the
Constitution, supersede the laws of neoce. The
occupatiou of this property comes within the
principle shove stated, and the owners have no
claim to compensation, and no compensation can be
awarded them. Such losses are u part of the inci-
dents .-\nd accidents of war. and the Government is
no more bound to repair them than to indemnify
citizens against destruction by flood, fire, or earth-
qnake. An owner has no more claim for rent under
suc-h circumstances than he would have afininst the
Police of the town whom he hod invited to protect
his house against the assaults ot burglars or a
mob. The Government, as a matter of grace, may,
by act of Congress, give indemnity for such injuries,
but there is no existinz statute authorizing the pay-
ment of such claims. I think, therefore, there is no
occasion for further iavestigation of these claims,
ana that they must be promptly rejected if present-
ed anew to tne accounting officers. Very respect-
fnUy, H. F. FRENCH, AssUtant Secretary.
[Indonement.]
TBEAStlBY DSPABTSUENT, April 5. 1878.
Approved. It would be Impossible for any Govern-
ment to make good such losses during war, and
especially civil war, as are here claimed. Certainly
there is no authority of law in the Treasury Depart-
ment to pay such claims, and 1 would not ask Con-
gress to authorize it, though entirely within the
power ot that body. JOHN 'SHERMAN, Secretary.

Bath, N. Y., April S. — The building of tbo
Steaben County Poor house, which w,ts burred last
Saturday night, wa a brick structure. 30 feet wide
by 40 feet long, and two s^tories high. Xearly all the
windows were grated, nod there was but one mode
of egress from each story. No night natchman w»s
employed about the building, and there wa- no fire
apparatus. The County-bouse is two miles from
Bath, and tbe Fire Department of this place did
not go out. An insane epileptic from Howells-
ville named Ford, who was locked iu a
cell on the first floor, set fire to his bed with a
match, probably obrnined from a fellow-pauj>er. All
the partitions were of pitch pine, and burned like
tinder. The cries of Ford rou ed the other inmates
only aiter the bniMing was fiUod with blindiog
siroke. An inmate who had Ford in charge opened
Ford's door, and the flames' burst out and ran along
the partitions and up the stove-pipe hole into the
second story. Ford could not be Ee«n on account
of the flames. He had forced his head between
the bars of his window, and, unable
to pnll it back, was crying for help. The flames
poured cut cf tfte window around his head, and he
perished. The upper story was occupied by 25
women and children, and the lower story by IS mesL
The majority were idiotic, crippled, or very aged.
Five on th© first floor and 'en on the second were de- ■
Btroyed. At the first alarm Eli Ca.rrincton. the
keeper, rushed out of the main building with an em-
ploye, and knocked in tne door rt the foot of the
staircase leading from the second story. Eight or tea
women were tound piled up at, the foot of the
staircase, and a cloud ot snffocatiuir smoke rolled
down. The women were pulled out and Carrington

On Sunday the blackened remains of five bodies wtrT*-
taken from th^ ruins, and to-day about one-third "f
the debris was dug over and more remains found.
Altogether the remains would about fill au ordinary
sized cofiBn. Legs, arms, and skulls were entirely
burped off, and in.most cises but a very small por-
tion of the bodj- coald he found. Xo blame is
attached to any one, but the conuty is severely reu-
sared for providing such a man-lrap for the occupa-
tion of its paupers. Before the fire there were 140
■paupers at the Count}- -house.
The Coroner impaueied a jury this afternoon,

Sheriff Danbman. of Camden, was called to-day to
the fact that a Mr. Stewart and his wiff , living in
Berlin, on the line of the Camden and Atlantic Rail-
road, about 15 miles from the city, died under stis-
pictoua circtusstauces last week. llrs. Stewart died,
after a short iUness, last Wednesday, and on Saturday
last the husband died. A lew dayl before they
were taken ill both of themVere apparently in ex-

It believed that they were victims of foul play.
Suspicion rests unon a young girl who lived with
the family, and the authorities hav^ placed
her under surveillance, tbe story circulated
being that the girl was desirous of marry-
ing a son of the Stewarts, but tbe father
and mother strenuously objected. It is believed
that some means were employed to cause the death
of these persons so that tbe match might be con-
summated. The stomachs of the deceased ^ere
brought to this city to-day and taken to Prof. Cres-
son for the purpose of analysiit. to ascertain whether
death resulted from natural causes or poison.

Albany. April S.-Olr. Holaban, of New.
York, executed a eoitp de main this evening, and
forced into Committee of the Whole, throo^h tbo
committee, anl to a third readlxtg his bill to amend
tbe Excise iaw so as to permit the is-\ne of liquor
licenses to all persons of good moral character who
apply for tHem. The bill is a very short one. and
this is its sum and substa,nce. The sadden .•vod s*ic-
cnssfnl movement was a complete surnrisal of its op-
ponents, and it was the more complete becauf^c ttie
first step repaired a two-thirds vote. Last ^ou-
day evening Mr. Holahan tried the same tactics,
but failed through a miscalcolatioD. He had moro
exact information this evcnintr. and when tbe proper
noment^meput in his resoluV.on tlicc "Axyembly
bid yo. 233 be considered in the next Commiitee of
iheWbole.'* This resolution, if carried, moved the
up billjf rom nearly the bottom of the general order ral-
endar. where it lay. to such a posit ion as almost im-
mediately brought it before the House tor consider-
ation, itr. Gilbert called for a vote by yeas and
nays. It was taken. When Mr. Alvord's name
was called be said it was inevitable that
this question must again come before
tbe House m some shape. He should vote against
the bill on its final passage, but he wns willing tc
have it come up and be got oat of the way. He
therefore voted yea. Mr. Cormack, of Delaware,
gave the same reasons for a like vote. Tbe rolI-«aL
stood yeas 58, nays 27. four more than the necoa-
sary two-thirds. The House soon went Into com-
mittee upon tbe bill. Mr. Gilbert, Mr. Skinner, and
Mr. Peck spoke against It. but more by way of
putting themselves publicly on record than with
any idea of stopping tbe prosress of the
bill, which tbe first vote showed to be impossible.
In a short time, some amendments having been made,
of no particular moment, Mr. Holahan moved to re-
port progress, and in the House moved that ii be or-
dered to a third reading. The yeas and nays were
called for. and then was seen a great change, for the
vote stood 46 yeas to 44 nays, only two majority,
on a majority vote, whereas there had been four ma-
jority on a two-thirds vote for makinc the fir>it move.
Here the bill stands. Sixty-five votes arc necessary
to pass it, and nearly all the absentees to-night are
on record as votinc against the Daly bilL yo on»>
seems to have any very sanguine hopes that tbe bfll
can pass, though its friends hope that by some lucky
chance the reQnisite number of votes may be fiuallj-
obtained.
The New- York Financial bill of Ft. Hayes was

published to-day, relative to the taxation of na-
tional banks, is the snbject of considerable comment
here. A bank at Toledo contested the collec-
xion of taxes, ou the ground that its tax-
ation was unequal, for the reason thnt it;
capital was assesse<l in full, while the as-
sessment on real estate in tliat city is only 40 per
cent, of its value ; therefore the bank made a tendei
of 40 per cent, of its tax to the Treasurer. J udge
Baxter's decision is that the Treasurer cnn collect uc
more. The object sought in the suit, which was on*
in Chancery, was to restrain the collect i'»n
of tbe t: X assessed for the year 1S76
ou the shares owned by tbe holders ot tho
complainant's capital stock. Judge Baxter neld
that the complainant was entitled to the relief prwyod
for. A decree will therefore be entered authoiVing
the complaiuant to pay the defendant or into the
Registry of the court 40 per cent, of the taxes as-
sessed against its shareholders, in acconiunre wiih
the tender heretofore made, and when this suall hr
done an injnnction TPill issue perpetually stayiiTC thr-
eoilectton of the i^sidue of said taxes. The co-ts ot
this suit will be decreed aeainsi. defendant, and paid
out of the funds recovered.

then introdaced, and sirake relative to the work of
that Institution.
Rev. A. J. Palmer, Pastor of the Elghty-slxth-
Street Church, announced that a member of the
Legislature connected with his charch had requested,
him to oaeertala the sense of the Conference rela-
tive to the proposed repeal of the law permitting
women to vote at charch elections. Mr. Palmer and
Drs. Osbon and Hermann offered the following res-
olution :
Reaolvtd, That it Is the sense of the New-Tork
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church that
the law by which the word "male "was stricken
from the law incorporating religious societies (the
effect of which was to permit women to vote in
Church elections) should not be repealed.
The Conference unaoimously adopted the resolu-
tion. The qnestlon of church records and statistics
was next discussed, a series of resolutions being pre-
lented for the concurrence of the Conference. One —
providin;; that members of eharehes absent formore
than two years should be marked on the Ust as re-
moved without certificate— was tabled. Another—
that the estimates of church propertv be reported on
the basis of the present value — ^metwitha similar
fate. A resolution to report the whole iadebtedcess
of churches was adopted.)
The Committee on Temperance rep<»ted a series
of resolutions reciting that while the temperance
cause has not for years had so promising an outlook
as at the present time, Methodists cannot afford to
relax their efforts ; that a most cheering omen is the
fact that prominent advocaios of the cause recognize
the importance of combioinK the gospel with tem-
perance work ; that the rigid enforcement of the
present Excise law ond the Civil Dsmago Jaw will
relieve sufferinff, check vice, and lessen taxes, and
that Pastors be urffed to regard the recommendation
of the General Conference in reference to the use of
unfermented wine for sacramental purposes. The
resolutions were adopted.
In the afternoon memorial services were held. Rev.
r)r. Foss, President of the Wesieyan University, pre-
siding. After prayer by Rev. Z. N. Lewis and read-
ing from the Scriptures by Rev. Dr. Tiffany, blo-
grapical sketches of the following deceased clergy-
Sien were read: Rev. James H. Romer, bornin

Mrs. A. M. Osbon. wife of Rev. Br. Osbon. was read

The session of the New- York East Methodist Con-
ference was opened at 9 o'clock A. M. in the Flrat-
Place Methodist Church, Brooklyn, with devotional
exercl-ses. The business of the day was opened with
the report of Rev. W. T. Hill. Presidine Elder of
the New-Haven District, which comprises all the ter-
ritory between the Massachusetts, ilne. Long Island
£^oond, and the Housatonic and Connectient Rivers.
The district contains 80 churches, 36 parsonages, 53
preachers, and 63 local preachers. Mr. Hill told
the story of the church at West Granby. Conn., and
how they came to lose the church property. There
were eiiiht distilleries la the oeljihborhood which
were owned by members and Stewards of the chnrch.
They manufactured cider brandy, and sold it at
wholesale and retaiL New Stewards were appointed,
but the'Pastor was powerless to stop the traffic The
Qtuurterly Conference called the ^stewards before
them, and placed the roost insolent one on triaU
Amons his defenders were eieht of the brethren,
aud one of these was the class-leader. The Steward
iras acquitted. A new church was organized, and
the property was taken by the men engaced in the
liquor business. The Pastor had received a mere
f>ittance. and he and his family had suffered many
ndignlttes at the hands of the rum-loving mob. He
was in need of immediate assistance. Some of the
churches were now able to support preachers, and
23 of them had given notice that they must be sup-
plied with local preachers. Unle^ts some changes
were made, Methodism was doomed in those lorall-
tiea. He iMraln OHlled attention to the case of Rev.
William E.Tompkins, who had suffered so severely
on account of his temperance principles at West
Granby. The brother only received ^199 64 last
year, and part of that was in poor hay, part in
slops, and part in money. He had a wife and two
children, and was $300 in debt. Another brother
was in debt and had nothln£, and two more needed
assistance. A collection wa» then taken up for the
benefit of these brethren, in which $402 was raised.
Rev. Dr. Curry addressed the Conlerence in re-
gard to the minute passed by the New- York Confer-
ence on Feb. 22, 1377. favoring the readjustment
of the boundaries of the Conference. He moved
the appointment of a committee ^ to confer
with a committee from the New* York Conference
on the subject. Rev. J. L. GUder offered, as
a substitute, ft resolution that a committee
of five ministers and five laymen be appointed to
meet a committee of the New- York Conference in
regard to the abolition of the line which divides
the City of New- York into two Conferences with a
view to making New- York City one Conference and
Brooklyn and the adjoining territory another. After
debate the substitnte was adopted, and Rev. Drs.
Corry. Gilder, Woodruff, Buckley, and Merwin, and
Messrs. Georue J. Hamilton, Samuel Booth, Oliver
Hoyt. Georce C. Reynolds, and Hallett, were
appointed as such committee.
The remainder of the session wm taken np with
the discnssiou of the resolution offered by Rev, G.W.
' Woodrnff. on Conference relalions; the object of the
proposed committee being to define the relations ot
superannuated and supernumerary preachers. The
resolution was finally adopted, and the Chair ai>-
pointed a committee as follows : Rev. William Mc-
Allister Rev. Thomas Burch. Rev, Benjamin Pflls-
bnry Rev. C. N. Sims, Rev. J. B. Merwin, Bev. J. C.
HilL Rev. Ij. P- Perry, and Rev. D. A. GoodselL

of the reanest of Rev. Dr. Willis to be placed on the
supemumerarr list on account of ill health, the
Conference adjourned until 9 o'elook this morning. .

Estimated redaction of revenue '.
under proposed bill $9, 404, OSS
Their argument seema to be tiiat It $13,000,-
000 were raised from, say, silks, at a duty of
60 percent, $26,000,000 would be raised
at 120 per cent., and only $0,500,000 at 30
percent, duty. They forget the higherand more
prohibitive the dnty the less quantity of goods
can be imported, and the lower the duty a cor-
respondingly larger quantity would l^e used.
On woolens, they say, for 1877 the revenue
was over $20,000,000, and under ^he pronosed
bill would only be $14,500,000. This U really
absurd. Under the present law the duty on the
lower grades of woolens runs from 150 to 350
per cent, ad valorem., which rates are simplr
prohibitory— and the Government do not re-
ceive $1 revenue. Under Mr. Wood's proposed
bill assessing a uniform duty of 50percentad
valorem thous^ds of pieces of low-priced heavy
woolens, suited to the farmer and working man,
would be imported, and the revenue from
woolens increased at least $7,500,000, instead
of a reduction of $5,500,000. The same thing
will apply to many of the other schedules, and
we are satisfied that the revenue for the fiscal
year after the bill goes into eifect will be from
$10,000,000 to $12,000,000 more than under
the present bill, instead of adecreaseof $9,000,-
000. Importer.
New-York, Monday, April 8, 1878.
THE MUNICIPAL SALARIES BILL,
To tKa Editor of the ITew-York TtmeM:
^ The criticisms made in your leading editorial
of the 7th Inst, npon the Manlclpal Salary bill,
wbich has just passed the Assembler, are just, if the
bill does not provide for snch a general and impar-
tial redaction of salaries and removal of stneeares in
office as the public Inteiest will admit of. and In the
shortest possible time. Whatever omissions of this
nature have been made In tbe bill sbonld be at once
snpplled. When this is done, are not the principles
of this bill among tbe favorite methods of reform ad-
vocated by your paper for treatlns our City abuses 1
Should a feeling of hostility to the Board of Estimate
and Apportionment, as now constituted, or any
member of it, deprive tbe City of the advantages of
at least the trial of a measure so sounds in principle
and so generally demanded 1 The principles of this
bUl as a called-for and effectnal measure of Munici-
pal reform Is one tbiog. and the present per»<mnel
of its proposed administration is another, although
an important thing. Tbe object of the bill is' to give
power to the government of this City to adjust the
number and compensation of Its officers and em-
ployes to the changed circumstances of tbe times and
the real requirements of the public service. These
salaries constitute one-third of the whole expenses
of the City Government, Including the Interest
account and the redemption of bonds. This ia two-
thirds greater than the same^elass of expenditures
weie In i860 (which expenses were at that time
one-third more than was reqaired,} when the popala-
tton was not more than 200.000 less than now,
when nearly an equal amount of business was done
in the City, with far greater ability to pay taxes than
now, and with the expenses of living fully equal to
the present. The retrenchment of these salary ex-
penses and the diminution of the sources of public
eoTToption ^Bhich these sinecure offices and exces-
stVB salaries gi^e rise to are the practical
ends sought for by the real promoters and
friends of this bilL The power of regulating
salaries and apppoiptments is now exercised
by the Legislature of tbe State, which assnmes no re-
sponsibility In the administration of the government
of the City— only makine its laws. The proposition
Is to give to the Municipal authorities, who are
chanced with the rtsponaibllities of administration,
the power to correct abases in this department of
the Government, coider the best safe-gUards that cor-
rect pzineiples of legislation admit of. for these rea-
sons, among many others : First— That sound prin-
elples of government require that -{mblie responsibtl-
itiea should be based upon adeqnate powers. Tbe
City Government under existing laws has no control
over two-thirds of the salaries ot its officials. This
famishes a valid excuse for the heads of tbe Govem-
ment to continne the present salary and siueeare
abuses, however well disposed they mi^ be to correct
them. Second — That it will give citizens who
are interested in securing eood government for this
City the advantage of dealing directly with the
City authorities, rather than with the Legislature,
in enforcine right action In the appointment of City
officials and fixing their compensation. The distance
of the seat of tbe Legtslature from the City, the tfc-
norance of the great body even of intelligent leijiala-
tors in the real cnqdltiou of public .affairs here, the
difficulty of producing a correct sentiment under the
counteracting and sinister influence of iutezested
parties, and the want of familiarity ot most of our
citixecfl with tbe complicated methods o£ eondaeting
legislation, practically place tbe shaping of legislat-
ing for this City out of the hands of oar best ettizens.
IjegUlatlon at Albany, too, is manipnlated largely
by the committees that have tbe first eonslderaBon
of measures presented to tbe Legislature. The bi-
floenee of the committees that have charge ot Cl^
affairs are not always or generally ftiendljr to the '
best interests ot this City. Partlm, perscntal, and
jobUbt intereate ate unally thoat ittflttestial over

An existing board, composed of offieen most re-
sponsible for the good government of the City, and
who, from the nature of their offices, are supposed
to be best acquainted with its necessities, has been
selected to exercise these functions of the Legisla-
ture. The terms of three of the members of this
Board expire with the present year. The places of
the Mayor and the President of the Common Coun-
cil are to be filled by election, and the incoming
Mayor will appoint the third member. It is there-
fore in the power of the people of this City to put
such men in the m^ority of this board as they
choose. But it is objected that it is the domineering
power of the remaining member of the Board — the
Controller— that makes the increase of the powers
of this board proposed In this bill so danger-
ous; that this power Is sought by him
with hypocritical professions, that by it he
may subject to lUmself the entire govemmeut of
the City, rewarding his supporters and driving from
office his opponents. All this, however, would be
such gross malfeasance, as not only to justify but to
require the Mayor to remove him from office. Is It
to be supposed that the electors of this City, with
their eyes open to the eonseqnences. will put aMayor
tn office who can be either managed by so mal^ a
conspirator or will permit him to remain in office?
or that citizens or taxpayers who have labored to
bring about this measure of relief from the public
burdens and corruptlona. will look on indifferently
while they are robbed of Its benefits with the le^ai
and moral power in their hands to prevent it f B.
MEDICAL EDUCATION.
TotheBdttorort/u^euf-york Time*:
An article in your paper of Friday, In regard
to unqualified practitioners, gives forth tbe Informa-
tion that a bill has been prepared and is now before
the LegUlatnre, entitled, "An act to better regulate
the practice ot pb ysio and surgery in the State! of
New-York." The gist of the bill la that no one shall
practice medicine unless he is a graduate of an Incor-
porated medical college. This is all right as far as It
goes, but a very Important amendment needs to be
tidded to the effect that hereafter no one shall be al-
lowed to enter a medical college as a student except
he Is a graduate of a clsssical college, or, at least, has
an academic education. "Eminent physicians of
tbe State" would be wise to press this addition if
they ever hope to stand on the same footing with
their European collengues. MEDICUS.

A REVOLUTIOK IN THE METHODS OF J>0lJTO
BUSINESS— ADOPTION OF A SERIES OP
NEW BULES — CLASSIFICATXOK OP THE
CRtT0E PRODUCT ACCOBDIKO TO LOCAX^
ITIES.
There was an anusoally large attendance of
the petroleum trade of tbe Produce Exchange in the
Managers' rooms yesterday afternoon, to take action
on tbe new rules. These rules change the entire
method of doing busineiia from first to last. The
committee that devised them have been in session
for over two months past, and have evidently ex-
pended an immense amount of labor on them. They
are 57 in number. The Chairman, in introducing
tbe subject yesterday, alluded to a circular which
had been privately eiictilated among a special in-
terefet urging opposition. He said the committee
had been compelled to make concessions all around,
and it was not xo be expected that the rules would
be perfectly satisfactory to everybody. Fairness
and directness had been sought. On motion, the
rules were taken up in Bections and. with a few
chauffea here and there, adopted. The prineipBl
changes iu the new rules may be summarized as fol-
lows : Provision is made for the appointment of
a Quotation Committee, to consist of three members,
to whom is given full discretion in making dally
quotations. The gravity of crude petroleum siiall
be from 43=^ to 48° Beaum^. It is divideo intothree
classes: First, the production of Butler, Clarion,
Armstrong, and Venango Counties, Penn., excepting
Bullion District: second, that of Warren, Tldionte,
Fagondaa, and Garland Districts, Penn.; third, that
of Bullion District. Venango County, and Bradford
District, McKean County, Penn., and Limestone
District, Cattaraugus Countv, N. Y. Crude and re-
fined petroleum in barrels sfiall be sold by weight at
tbe rate of 6^ pounds net to the gallon. In the ab-
sence of stipnlBrion first-claM crude petroleum only
shall constitute a good delivery. ' When crude
petroleum of a Tower class is mixed with
that of a higher class the mixtore shall
be exelnded from tbe higher class. In the abseuse
of stipulation crude petroleum shall be delivered in
refined petroleum barrels whose last contents was
crude or refined petroleum or naphtha. Barrels con-
taining refined peirolemn and naphtha shall bepain ted
blue, with white heads.and well glued. All tares shall
be weighed by half pounds, and all gross weight by
pounds. Barrels shall be made of welt-seasoned
.white iisk timber, and have not leas than six iron
hoops IIq inches wide, excepting the chime hoops,
wnieh shall be 1^ Inches wide. When tbe ero»s
weight Is over 405 pounds the bilge hoops xhall be
1 finches wide, and of No. 18 gauge English standard
The average shortage found on a portion of not
less than 10 per cent, shall be taken as the average
amount to be deducted from the lot. Tbe gravUv of
residuum shall be from 16° to 21'^Beaum^. Re^ldn-
nm, when sold in barrels, shall be sold by welsbt, at
the rate of 7^2 pounds, net, per gallon. Unless
otherwise stipulated, empty barrels shall be under-
stood to have last contained either refined petroleum
or naphtha.
Barrels shall be olasslfled as follows: First, alt dt
to carry refined petroleum or naphtha ; second, all fit
for crude petrolenm. but not fit for refined or naph-
tha ; third, all fit for residuum only. Barrels in*
lured by sand, mold, or water, shall drop a class.
The term, "as they run, "shall apply to condition of
cOopwoge only. Barrels which have carried crude
petroleum and have been steamed oat after shipment
to Europe andnsed for refined oil. shall be placed in the
second clasBificution. Empty barrels shall have six
hoops, and be delivered In form. On relnspection
buyers mmtt receive and pay for barrels improperly
rejected. All settlements of contracts for refined
i>etroIenm or naphtha shall be on the following
basis : Barrels. 50 gallons ; bulk, 45 gallons : and
for erode petrolenm. barrels, 48 gallons ; bulk. 42
gallons. Tne deliverv-yard must be one at Which
vessels of at least 4,500 barrels* capacity can load.
After notice of readiness to deliver sellers may com-
mence delivering on one day's further notice, and
may continue delivering nutU completed inch ap-
proximate quantity per day as would serve to fill the
vessel in the stipulated lay days. Acceptance
of goods on delivery by buyer's Inspector
shall be acknowledgment that the goods are
in accordance with the contract. When
goods are delivered by buyer's order the seller's risk
shall end on delivery to the ship's tackle, and the
latter may require evidence that the goods are in-
sured nntil paid for. All deliveries shall be made
before 5 o'clock P. M. Original deliveries shall be
made before 4 P. M. In determining the capacity
of a vessel, barrels of 50 net gallons capacity in case
of refined petroleum and naphtha, of 48 net gallons
capacity in case of crude petroleum, and of 45 net
gallons capacity in case of residuum shall be tbe basis
for settlement. Inspectors shall do their work
promptly, and, in case of rejection, notify the seller
Immediately tbathemarreplace the rejected goods. In
caseof dispute between the buyer's Inspector and sel-
Ier in consequence of rejection of goods, the latter shall
lave the right to name another inapeclor, and if the
two cannot agree they shall name a third. A ma-
jority of the three shall decide, and the umpire shall
grant a certificate. Inspectors shall have tbe right
to require barrels to be filled with refined petroleum
at least 12 hoars before the eoods are teudered for
inspection. Most of the present rules remain in
force, nearly all the above being additions. A num-
ber of forms covering all sorts of contracts under
the new rules "are appended. The changes will now
go to the Board of Managers for approval.
A SUIT TO RECOT£R DOWBR SIGHTS.
BThe suits of Mrs. Cavld Holyworth to recover
her dower rights in property In Newark, N. J.,which
her husband had owned, have been attended with par-
tial success. Her husband deserted her In Germany,
and, coming to this country, married agidn. He em-
barked lu business as a brewer, aud amassed a for-
tune. Reverses overtook him, and he sold his real
estate, piece by piece, till it had all passed out of his
hands. Removing thence to Piermont, Rockland
County, N. V., he opened a saloon, but his business
did not prosper, and be is now said to be in absolute
want. His deseried wife followed him to this ooun-
trr and kamed of his wealth and of his subsequent
mlffortunes. She claimed that as she had not joined
in the deeds by which her husband transferred his
real estate, she was stOl entitled to her dower in the
property, and broncht stdts to secure her rights.

of a small part of her husband's f ormor property, the
sum ot 9500 In settlement Of her claim o^^nst him,

SITMUABT.
The eredentiils of George H. Pendleton u
Senator from Ohio from 2tareh4. 1879, wez« pre-
sented in the Senate. A Joint resolution for a com-
mission to negotiate a treaty with Coreawas Intro-
duced. Tbe bill providing for a public building in
Topeka, Kan., wu amended by limiting the cost to
•200,000, and passed. The 'hill to remove restrie-
tion^ agidnst the enUstiug of colored soldiers was
discussed, without action. The Pacific Rallroacl
slaking fund debate wai iMumed, and continued
through the session. Mr. Thurman said he would
ask the Senate to finish the bill to-morrow.
The House decided, by 219 to 4, that Mr. Butler's
resolution to proceed to the election of a Door-keeper
was a privileged question. After a long debate, €ten.
Field, the nominee of the Demoeratle caums, was
elected, and took the modified oath. A bill was then
passed, under suspension ot the rules, authorlring
the President to appoint. Qtvn. Shields a Brigadier-
General on the retired list, with pay from the date
Of passage of the bUl. The Post Office Appropria-
Ion bill was reported and referred to the Committee
of the Whole. Mr. Butler moved to suspend the
rules and pass his Fractional Oarrency bill, bat with-
out voting the House adjourned.
SENATB.
The Chair laid before the Senate the creden-
tials of George H. Pendleton as a Senator from Ohio,
from March 4. 1879. Laid on the table.
BESTBICnON ON ENLISTINQ COLORED SOIiDIKBS.
On motion of Mr. BmiKSinx, of Rhode Island, the
bill to rem6ve all restrictions now existing In regard
to the enlistment of colored citizens in any arm of
the United States Army, was taken np.
After considerable discussion the momliig hour ex-
pired, and tbe bill went over.
THE PACIKIO RAILBOAD BINKtWO FTJJTO.
The Pacific Railroad Sinking Fund bill came up as
tmfinisbed business,
Mr. BZiAiNE formally offered his amendment to
the twelfth section of the bill, striking out the words
** reserving the right te alter, amend, or repeal." and
Insert "but so Ions as said Central Pacific and Union
Pacific Railroad Companies shall faithfully comply
with the provisions of the said act of 1802 and 1864
and of this act relating to payments to the United
States on account of the bonds advanced and of the
sinking fund to be established as aforesaid, such com-
pliance shall be deemed and taken as sufficient to
meet'the obligations of said companies on account of
such bonds prior to the maturity thereof." He then
proceeded to argue In support of it,
Mr. Kkrnan advocated the Judiciary Committee's
bill, el-simlng that the Qovemment had an nnqnes-
tlonable right to alter, amend, or repeal the acts,
and denied that there was any breach of the^ontract
proposed. The grants were mtwle to secure the exe-
cution of a great undertaking for the benefit of the
country, and to secure a faithful execution of the
contract and a proper admlniKtration of that under-
tnaing the control was reserved to the Government.
Mr. Keman cited a case where the State of New-lfork
had passed iu 1844 a general banking law containing
a clause reserving the right to alter or amend, under
which a bank was organized, which, in 1857, failed.
In 1849 the act above referred to was amended,
making individual stockholders liable for debts of
tbe bank. The court of the State and the Supreme
Court of the United States had held that this second
act was eonstltntional.
Mr. EDHcyns obtained the floor, but gave way to
Mr. TairauAM, who said a number of Senators bad
gone away, some of tbem not feeling well, and he
had said be would not ask a vote on any of the pro-
positions to-day, but that he would ask the Senate to
finish the bill to-morrow.
On motion of Mr. CONKLn?a the Senate theui at
4:10 o'clock, went Into executive session, and, when
the doors were reopened at 4:30 o'clock, adjourned
until to-morrow.
HOXTSE OF BEPBESENTATIVES.
THE ELECTION OF 'Jl DOOB-KBEPER.
Immediately after the reading of the Journal the
Spzakeb said that the first question In order was
whether the resolution presented on Friday last by
Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, relating to the elec-
tion of Door-keeper, presented a question of privi-
lege. The Hoxise, by a \iva voce vote, decided that it
did; but Mr. Conaer. of Siichigftn, thought that as
tbe action of the House would establish a precedent
It would be better to take the vote by yeas and nays,
and they were, therefore, ordered, and resulted— yeas
219, nays 4. The negative votes were cast by
3!essrs. Bland, of Missonri, Mills and Throckmor-
ton, of Texas, and Vonng, of Tennessee.
The Spkakeb stated that the resolution was before
tbe House. It proposes that the House proceed to
the election of a Door-keeper, and that the true
Union maimed soldier, Brig.-Gen. James Shields, of
Missouri, be chosen to that office.
BIr. Cltkxb, of Pennsylvania, asked to offer a
substitute expressing simply that the House pro-
ceed to the election of a Door-keeper.
Mr. BuTLEB sent to the Clerk's desk and had read
a letter to himself from Gen. Shields, asking him
when the Senate bill increasing his pension to $50 a
month should come before the House to try and
make it $100, adding that others who had suffered
less and not done more, were on the retired list, rrad
thet this kind act would not injure him [Mr. Butler]
in N'ow-En gland.
Mr. Edkn. of nilnoia, asked If Gen. Shields would
nofbe better snited to fill the position of Postmas-
lerGenernl than that oft Doorkeeper of the House,
and if Mr. Batler could not succeed with this Admin-
istration getting him Into that office t
Mr. BuTLXB — 1 do not have the proper influence
witn tbe Administration to nominate a Postmaster-
General. Those who do have nominated as Post-
master-General a Confederate General — a very good
man; and it seems that that is the desire of the
House of Representatives, becanse It ia the same sort
of man that the other side now nominate for Door-
keeper : so that the President and House of Repre-
sentatives seem agreed upon this question. I do not.
[Laughter.] Now, against this nomlQation of Gen.
tihldds there Is a nomination pending of a
gentleman named Field, a good, true, loyal Con-
federate soldier, who did his duty as he
understood It. faithfully and well ; who fought well —
I happen to know an occasion where be fought well.
I have not a word to say against his services for his
country, as he chose it, but It was not for my eonn-
tiy, and therefore I cannot reward that servant.
Mr. Ykatks— Why do yon say that, as Gen. Field
did not fight for your country you cannot support
him I
Mr. BrTLXR — It is the difference between loyalty
tothefiagandtheGovemment which educated him and
brought him up and treason to that flae. [Applause
on the Republican side. } for which treason he ought
to have been hanged. [Laaghter.] By all laws, hu-
man and divine, he ought to have been hanged, but
the clemency of the country saved him from that
peualtv. and 1 have the unfortunate pre-eminence of
being about the only man who ever did enforce that
penalty, and I stana by tbe act. This gentleman left
this country to seek another. He made himself the ser-
vantof an Egyptian Prince; a subject of the Sultan of
Turkey— because tbe Sultan of Turkey does notallow
any nuui to go into his army who does not swear a1-
le^ance to him, and most ot them have to swear al-
legiance to the Prophet Mahomet before they get in.
Now, within tbe last two months we hsve relieved
the political disabilities of this Gen. Field, and, hav-
ing relieved those disabilities, I am waiting before I
vote for him to bear whether the Sultan of To'hev
or the KhMlve of Egypt has removed his disabilities
as their subject. I do not want a man to forswear
a part of his rountry and get pardoned, and then
forswear the whole ot his country and take service
tmder a foreign Prince, and then return hot-footed
from that service to be made a Door-keeper In the
House of Representatives.
Mr. HuNTON said that Cton. Field went to Egypt
and accepted service under contract. The same con-
tract which Qen. Field sttrned vTaa signed by four
officers of the Federal Army, two of whom are now
in the Army of the United States, and he
presumed that these officers did not forfeit
any citizenship or allegianee to the Govern-
ment by this contract with the Khedive,
in the contract ehtered into between those officers
and the Khedlva it is stipulated that they shall
serve the KhMive in any war against hit enemies,
unless there should become complications and war
with the United States of America, in which case
they were relieved from service.
Mr. BuTLEB— Now, Mr Speaker, I will address my-
self to that. Four gentlemen. It is said, one of
them a surgeon, took a contract to serve the Khe-
dive, and got leave from this Government togo and do It
foroneyear. TheybeinKyouogandsabordluateoffieers
I distinguish Mr. FielcTs ease from these in two re-
spects, first, did be ask leave of the President of the
United States to go out and expatriate himself
and serve for a year f There is no evidence of that.
Did beget leave t Was he a citizen of the United
States at the time he left, four years ago T He was
not. My friend from Virginia says be did not
violate bis allegiance by going out there. No ; I
know he did not. He had no allegiance to violate.
He had broken it and forfeited it. He did not ask
leave to serve for a year; but he asked leave to
serve, and did serve, the KfaMlve in a high
office just as long as be chose, or
just OS long as the KhMlve chose to
have him. Now, where Is Mr. Field's contract?
These yoting men's conttacts are apparently good
and very proper i Imt where is his contract 7 Has
he got a copy of it ! Was It so heavy that it could
not be brought up Capitol Hill } Why bring up
these young men's contracts t They are not to the
fore. Gentlemen of the other side, I ask you Iti
closing not to do this thing. We ore a
little aor* yet. some of ns up North. There are a
grtAC many graves dotting the hillsides of all our

Mr. Eden, of nilnols— Did the gentleman make
any complaint against the appointment ot Gen.
Xiongstreet to an important office !
Mr. BUTLKR— I make no'objection to his appoint*
ment, Md I do not know that there was any one-
armed Union soldier who was seeking for the same
office at the same time. Besides. Gen. Iiongstreet
had repented for more than two months. [Sneering
laughter on the Democratic side. ]
-Mr. Eden- His repentance, I suppose, eonslsted in
his iohiing your party. If a Confederate General
joins your party he is fit for office ; but so long as he
remauis with the Democratic party be is unfit.
Mr. BuTLKB— Pardon me ; I never knew that Gen.
liOngstreet joined our party. I do not care whether
he did or not. He not only relented, but he gave
"works meet for repentance.* More than that. I
have lived too long— my friend from New-York [Mr.
Cox] sold the other day that I waa growing old—
when I have lived to hear In the House of Represen-
tatives of the American Congress the fact that a man
repented of his treason to his .Government sneered at
and coughed down.
Mr. CiiYMEB,, of Pennsylvania, said : Let us ask
whether Mr. Butler knows that the pension to
Gen. Shields was Increased from $30 to $50
on the eronnd In proof before that committee that
Gen. Shields was, not only personally disabled so
thst-he could not earn a livlihood, but that. In addi-
tion, he required the services of some one to take
care of him I Mr. Clymer then accused Mr. Sutler
of never aiding a soldier who was known to be a
Democrat.
Mr. BUTLEB sent to the Clerk's desk and had read
a copv of' Gen. Shields* petition for an Increase of
pension, in which he states tliat he was formerly a
Brigadier-General In the United States Army, and
served as such in the Mexican war; that at thebattle
of Cerro Gordo, on th© 18th of April, 1847, while
leading his brigade against the reserve of the Mexi-
can Army under the immediate control oC Santa
Anna in person, he was shot down in
front of a Mexican battery of five gtms by
a l^rge grape-shot supposed to be copiwr, which
passed through his body; that from that wound be
recovered sufficiently to enfer tbe Valley of Mexico
at the head of his brigade with tbe rest of the Army
and to lead his brigade at the battles of Oontreras
and Cherubusco ; that he was again wounded at the
storming of Chepultepec. but that he continued to
press forward into the City of Mexico, neelecling his
wound so that his arm had begun to mortify, snd that
he came near losing bis life ; that be wsa afterward
allowed a pension of $30 a month, and that he again
took part In tbe last war, when he received another
wound in the battle of Winchester from a fragment
of a shell bavin? shattered his arm and elbow ; that
he is now 67 years of age : that he has applied to
the bureau for an increase of pension, but has been
refused because he was not totally helpless ; that
he is not totally helpless, although unable to earn
his livelihood by labor ; that, on the contrary, he
does everythine he can to help himself, and hopes to
do so as long as he lives, but that as his years ore
f rowing upon him he appeals bopefnUy anH respect-
ally to the liberality of the American Congress for
such an increase of pension as, will save him from
want in his old age.
Mr. Butler, continuing, sakl -. There Is the old
man's story, and there Is no evidence on enrth to go
against it. He Is now lecturing in New-England ac-
ceptably to audiences ; a thing which neither of the
three last Door-keepers could do. He is not expected
to stand here if he is elected Door-keeper. We have
no-armed men— no I I take that back ; we have had
no-armed men here, with hooks, opening the doors
for us. The office of a Door-keeper wants brains —
that's what's the matter ; it wants honesty. You
had an honest man, certified as such by both the
majority and minority of the committee, and you
consequently drove him oat. It wants capacity for
business. All these qualiflcations Gen. Shields has.
Mr Bbaog. of Wisconsin, eulogized Gen. Shields,
and intimating that Mr. Butler's speech and motion
might be clap-trap, said : I signify my purpose here
now to do Gfen. Shields justice, not by making him
Door-keeper of the Honse, but by offering as a sub-"
stltute a joint resolation placine Gen. Shields on the
retired Ust of officers of the United States Army.
with the rank and pay of Brigadier- General on the
retired list. (Applause on the Democratic side.}
The Speaker (to Mr. Butler)— Does the gentleman
admit that as a substitute ?
Mr. BuTLfeR (contemptuously) — Oh no. I have tbe
floor now and shall complete what I have to say: I
decline to be interrupted. When you put that in or-
der, when you wake up to your duty, I will vote for
it ; but you cannot pat it In here now. in order to
get in a Confederate General. (Applause on ^e Re-
publican side.] The Confederate General never
cculd ride upon old Shields' back, and never shall
with my consent. [Laughter.] I move tbe previous
question.
The Honse refused to second the previous question
bv a vote of 120 to 1 10.
Mr. Hale, of Maine, argued that tbe tendency of
the other side was in a direction about which the
country is profoundly alarmed, the domination In it
of the old Confederate element. He then presented
the claims of Gen. Shields as -opposed to the Demo-
cratic nominee.
Mr. BLACKBrRN, of Kentucky— The verv contest
which the gentleman from Maine describes was
settled by this House when a Confederate from Ala-
bama was beaten for a more important office than
the Door-keeper's place by as gallant a Union soldier
as ever wore the uniform of vonrGovemment — ^Inthe
contest for the Clerkship. That was decided not by
the assistance of the Republican votes, but in a Dem-
ocratic caucus. A majority of the Confederates on
tnis floor were in sympathy with the defeated candi-
date, and yet they pave the place to the Union man.
Mr. Hale — ^Let me supgest to the gentleman from
Kentucky that he ought to get over a very bod habit
he has of speaking of the Government as ''your Gov-
ernment," referring to this side. That Is a matter
which I am free to sayis somewhat offensive to me.
I wish the gentleman would allow the " dead post to
bnry its dead " so far as to be willing now to call this
" our Government," as we do on our side. [Applause
or the Republican siile.]

TBE KBW-rORK BaT OEMBTSRT.
The annual electiou of Trustees of the New-
York Bay Cemetery, which has been held In this
City for the post 25 years, has been declared by
eouiisel to be illegal. The association was Ineor-
porated In 1850 by the New-Jersey Iiegislatnre.
Tbe George Yreeland farm In Greenville hod been
bought for the purpose, and Mr. Buckmoster,
who owned a part of the farm, sought
control of the Beam of Trustees, and retained his
power by voting on 3,090 lots. Many of the lot-own-
ers have become dlssatlBfied with the manner In
which the cemetery has been managed, and having
obtidned an opinion as to the illegolitr of the past
elections of Trustees on the irround that they nad
been held oatside of the State, ther went to Trenton
and hod a bill Introduced into the Legislature, which
passed last week providing for a new election, and
providing also that no person shall vote on more
thaulOOlots. This will destroy Buckmaster's power,
and the new Tmstees will, as soon as they obtain
control, adopt the system upon whi^ Green-WoOd
is managed.
A COLLISION OPP BARNEQAT.
The schooner Yankee Doodle left this port

while off Bamegat, a schooner, which proved to be

STREET— A JUDGMENT FOB THE ORIGI-
NAti owner's GBANDDAUaHTXB. ^ '
The suit of Josephine M. Allen against Joaepb
W. Savage was tried before Judge Donohue and a
jury, In Part IL of the Supreme Court, yesterday.
The action was to recover possession of a lot on tha
south side of Forty-seventh-street, between Broad-
way and Blgbth-avenua, and $2,750 damages for the
use and occupancy of it by the defendant. It
that the lot In quesUon was owned, aboat 40
ago, by Francis Child, the plalntifTi grandfather.
Mr. Child died In 1839, and his widow, Mary Child,
brought a partition suit in 1845 to divide his prop.
erty. In that action the lot in question was set off
to Mrs. Parsons, tbe plaintiff smother. Ou a review,
the partition waa set aside. Pending such deeision.
however, Mrs. Parsons died, leaving the plaintiff aa
her sole heir. The special guardian of the plaintiff
sold the lot to Mrs. Maty Child, who subsequently
sold it to the defendant Then eame the deoslon of
the court setting aside the partition. A aeoond par-
tition suit followed, in which both the plaintiff and
defendant were parties. In that action the court
awarded the possession of the lot to the plaintiff,
Mrs. AUen. who began an ejectment suit against
Savage. The latter brought a suit in equity to re-
strain her from prosecuting her action, and for the
Purpose of obtaining a confirmatorv deed,
he latter suit was tried. and * decided
in Ills favor, but the Court of Appeals over-
ruled the deeision and awarded the possession
of the Jot to the plainriff. The latter yesterday
rested her claim on the decree In the second partition
suit and the judgment In the injunction suit. Savage
claimed title under his deed. Judge Donohue held
that Savage was estopped from setting up the deed,
and directed a verdict awardine to the plaintiff the
possession of the lot. The jury, to whom was left
theqaestionofdomagee, awarded the plaintiff $2. OOO.
William Henry Amoux appeared for tbe plaintiff,
and W, Howard Waits and George M. Miller repre-
sented the defendant.
SVIT AGAINST GEN. SBERIDAN.
An action against Major-Gen, Philip H.
Sheridan, in which one James A. Whalen seeks to
recover nearly $500,000. is on the calendar of the
United States Circuit Court, and will probably be
reached for trial in the course of a day or two. The
suit Is brought to obtain damages for the alleged un-
lawful •' conversion to his own use " of the stock of
a Louisiana plantation in the month of August,
1867. The property scheduled iu the complaint
amotmts to $420,000, and embraces horses, cows,
pigs, sheep, and mules by the hundred ; shovels,
spades, ploughs, carta, wagons, hoes, and other farm
utensils, together with about 3U0 hogsheads of
sugar and 250 hogsheads of molasses — in fact the
complete stock of the KiUona plantation, in St.
Charles Parish. It is understood that the defense
will show that all these acts of appropriation were
done by the General in his eajMcitya^a military (>f-
ficer and jn behalf of the United States Government
while he was acting as commander of the Military
Department of the Gulf, during the early period of
reconstruction, and further that the inventory Is
largely exaggerated both as to quantity and value.

GHOST.
On the night ot March 27 ult. Officer Gil-
bride, of the Twenty-first Precinct who created so
much excitement on the East Slde^y solemnly aver-
ringthathe had seen the ghost of "Old Shep." flitting
over the vraters of the East River, arrested Bella
Pyatt and her husband, living at No. 493 First-
aveniie, for disorderly conduct On arriving at the
station-house Mrs. Pyatt informed Gilbride that she
had left her baby in her bedroom and the officer re-
turned for It. When he arrived at Mrs. Pyatt's rooms
he found there a yonng man named Hugh McNulty.
and not fesling satisfied with his explanation, took
tiim into custody on a charge of burglary. The pris-
oner was brought to trial by Assistant District Attor-
ney Russell, in General Sessions, Part IL. yesterday.
After Officer Gilbride had given his testimony, coun-
sel for the prisoner smilingly asked him if he was not
theofficerwhosaidhe had seen the ghost on theriver.
The officer admitted the fact but said he did not see
what it had to do with a charge of burglary. " Only
this," replied counsel, "that I think an officer who Is
the victim of such risions as yoa have been troubled
with cannot vouch for the correctness of anythingbe
sees. How do you know it was not a ghost you srw
in Pyatt's rooms ?" **I know it wasn't" retorted Gil-
bride warmly. "I caught him and brought him to
the station-house." Counsel for the prisoner showed
that after the disturbance In the Pyatt household,
the rooms had been left open and could be entered
by anybody with ease. The jury acquitted McNulty.

nuttlng a crime, which In law Is made burglary In
tbe second degfee. On March 26 Dreyfus engaged
board at $6 per week in the family of Mrs. Good-
sti^tn, at No. 130 Avenne A. He was assigned to a
front room with Levi, a lad of the family, and pro-
ceeded promptly to Ingratiate himself into the good
graces of Miss Matilda Goodstein, and the other
members of the family. He represented
himself- as a wholesale butcher at Wosh-
incton Market and generously offered
to employ Levi at $5 per week. The offer was ac-
cepted, and Levi, with the new boarder, retired to
their room. On awakening next morning Leofound
that Drevfus had left, and an investigstxbn resulted
in the discovery of the fact that Miss Matilda's
watch, chain, locket, and rings, valued at $85, bad
been stolen. Next day Detective O'Connor, of the
Eleventu Precinct arrested Dreyfus, and found In
bis possession pawn tickets for the stolen jewelry.
On the trial yesterday the prisoner stoutly denied
the charge. The jury, nevertheless, found him
guilty of burelary. and Judge Sutherland sent him

sions, Part I., yesterday. The prisoner pleaded

marking that Eldridge could be imprisoned for 60
years on the triple charge against hito, imposed tbe

ing out of the recent cigar-makers' strike, waa

rage attributed to his elieots. The jury foimd the

MR. MONETPENNTS MONET-BAGS.
The contest in the case of the will of Bobert
Moneynenny, the Canal-street dyer, occupied the at-
tention of Surrogate Calvin yesterday. The will if
dated Nov. 27, 1875, and is contested by WHlhun G.
Moneypenny, a brother of the testator, and others.
By its provisions all of the property is left to bla
wife Elizabeth and his daughter Anna, who Is 9
years old. The estate consists of real propertv at
the comer of Canal and Varick streets, worth $20.-
000, and about $6,000 in bank. Tbe eontestonU
all^e that the will propounded is not in fact a wUl
made by the testator, and that the signature thereto
is forged; that if it Is his will Its execution was ob-
tained by fraud and undue influence, and that
he was Incapacitated by Intemperate habits.
The testimony yesterday showed that the widow,
as Elizabeth Elliott went into the employment of
the decedent about 12 years ago as a sort of house-
keeper and assistant in his business, and remained
with him until he died ; that about nine years ago
the child Anna was bom, although the widow ae-
knowJedgps that she was not married to Mr. Money-
penny until about four years ago. She produced a
certificate of marriage, however, to show that she
was l^rally united to him in 1874. She
also admitted that aboat six weeks before the
present will was made she burned a will which Mr.
Moneypenny had previously made. The contestants
also claim that the chi^d is not the natural of^priag
of the deceoseo, alledng that an infant was procured
and palmed off on the old gentleman as bis. Ths
farther hearing was adjourned to Saturday next

tDiut be faBaded in before 6 o'clock thU evening
TJte Signal Seritce Bttreau report indicates
Jor to-day, for me Middle Atlantic States
and South Atlantic States, eloudu, rainy
weather, south-east to south winds, stationary
or higher tentperature, falling, preceded by
stationary harometer.
In onr Washington dispatches will be
fotmd some details from the tables of the
Bureau of Statistics in regard to the prob-
able operation of the Wood Tariff bilL
.These show very clearly that the bill, in-
stead of yielding, as Mr. Wood claims,
$150,000,000, could not be reasonably
expected to yield over $122,000,000,
or $9,000,000 less than the Cus-
toms revenue of the last fiscal year.
fThere is some force in the objection made
iby a correspondent that it is nnfair to test
ithe productiveness of a reduced duty on the
Ibasis of the returns from a higher one.
Bnt it is equally misleading to assume
that the duties which are increased
jwould yield a proportionately larger return
Ithan the relatively low duties now in force
fThe import duty ,'on sugar, for example,
bas 'been raised, avowedly in/me interest
of the Louisiana planters.* To assume that
St would yield the four millions of increase
[With which it is credited is to assume that
rwe should import as much sugar at a high
rate of dnty^ at a low one, and that, there-
lore,- nobody would be protected. . The
foolish proposal to increase the duty
on light wines would be practically pro-
liibitory, and the alleged simplification of
our tariff system is not sufficiently radical
to count for mneh as a means for the reduc-
tion of the expenses of collection. On the
whole, the advocates of the Wood bill are
reduced to the alternative of tacking on to
the proposed tariff a renewal of the Income
Tax or an abandonment of the sinking
fund, so as to make both ends meet. The
simple remedy of taxing tea and coffee is
obviously too reasonable to find favor with
.them.
The long agony over the Door-keener of
the House of Sepresentatives was termi-
nated yesterday by the election of Field,
■^ rebel General, educated at the expense
of the XTnited States Government, and more
lately an officer in the Egyptian Army. His
icompetitor was Gen. Shields, a veteran of
ithe Mexican war and of the war for the
Union. Pricked by the conseionsnesss that
they had shown themselves to disadvantage
in their choice between men, the Democrats
agreed that Shields should have a better
place than that of Door-keeper. Accord-
ingly, under suspension of the rules, a bill
was introduced and passed placing Gen.
Shields on the retired list of the Army
iwith the rank of Brigadier-GeneraL This
.will be a windfall to the old man if it be-
iGomes a law. The veteran will have his re-
ward, and the House will have its ez-rebel
Door-keeper.
Itim poHtieally rtromtw ttaa ever. It was
• very sunning ttielc to suspend the opet*-
tianofthebiUtinaftertheFalleleetion. The
possession of tsaxsh. an enormous reserve of
authority over every officer and department
of the Chy Government would' give Mr.
KxLLT a veryobviens vantage ground in
eleeting a Mayor and Aldermen suited to his
purposes. No employe of the CSty would
dare to refuse to contribute poUtiesl assess-
ments demanded by an organization whose
head controlled^ both his salary and
his tenure of office, and none could
afford to work against the power which
would be able to take very prompt revenge
for political insubordination. The men who
play into the hands of an nnsorupnlons
despotism like this may be perfectly honest
and well-meaning persons, bat they are
simply treading in the footsteps of the Citi-
zens' Association of odipns memory, and
their spokesmen deserve the reward of the
astute Nateaxiel Sands and his virtuous
colleagues.
Prince Gobtschakoff's denial of his al-
leged refusal to permit the discussion of the
Bessarabian question by the congress ap-
pears to have somewhat pacified Boumania,
the crossing of the Danube by the Russian
troops from 'Bulgaria having occasioned
much less excitement than was expected.
A still stronger point in Bussia's favor is
the impending resignation of Veftk Pasha,
the anti-Bussian Minister of tjie Interior at
Constantinople. Should Beouf Pasha, as
seems probable, succeed to the vacant
place, and should Osman Pasha replace
Beout as Minister of Wah the Bnsso-Turk-
ish alliance will have little opposition to
fear. As for Austria, she is fast becoming
a kind of political ferry-boat, made simply
to go from one side to the other. The Hun-
garian Premier, lately so earnest for peace,
is loudly proclaiming that war is preferable
to the establishment of a Slav State on the
Danube ; and while the Ministerial organ is
hoping for peace and landing Prince Bis-
marck's efforts to preserve it, the unofficial
Vienna papers are reviling both the Prince
and his efforts as an attempt to bully Austria
into a compromise. In the meantime, the
GrOTmsD. Norddeutsche Zeitung is "pitching
into" Austria and Bnssia alike, and the lat-
ter is showing her confidence in the sin-
cerity of her Austrian ■' friend and neigh-
bor " by occupying the Carpathian passes
and massing troops along the border 'of
Transylvania. The auguries of peace drawn
from the homeward march of Prince
Schaeoskot's division count for little, it
being sufficiently evident that these and
other recalled corps Sarmie have merely
gone home to recruit, and will be in the
field again before Midsummer. The return
of Lord Lyons to Paris augurs ill for the
possibility of the congress, and the Khe-
dive's threat to declare himself independent
in the event of a rupture between England
and Turkey adds one more complication to
the eeneral chaos. The studiously mode-
rate tone of the Ministerial speeches in both
houses of Parliament, as well as the em-
phatic protest of 80 powerful a member of
the Conservative Party as Lord Derby,
against rushing into a causeless war, are
hopeful indications on the side of peace.

We publish to-day a letter in regard to
the so-called Municipal Salaries bill, mainly
'because its author assures us that it ex-
presses the views of the Counojl of Politi-
cal Beform on that remarkable measure.
:If the eommittee^who will be heard at Al-
;bany to-day on behalf of the council have
nothing more to the purpose to say
jthan is to be found m this letter,
!they might, profitably, have stayed at home.
iThese facts "oonfront the inquirer into the
Ihistory and character of this bill : an ap-
parently honest attempt to compel a reduc-
tion of 25 per cent, on the salary list
of the City was abandoned to make
way for a conspicuously dishonest make-
believe, which leaves salaries un-
touched, and which stops short at a pro-
vision for a 6 2-3 per cent, reduction on
the ontire tax-levy. No minor amendments
ean make this bill any other than a trans-
parent swindle. It must be radically^
changed to conform to the compulsory
prrovisions of the law for which it was dis-
honestly substituted, and it must be made
to apply to tife second half of the present
year, as originally- proposed. We have no
objection to see the power of re-
ducdng salaries vested in the Board .of
Apiportionment, but we do object to have
'Ute exercise of that power made entirely
optional, and to find a reduction of the run-
ning expenses of the State, a failure to re-
deem the ammal proportion of debt, and
the withholding of necessary appropriations
for pablio improvements put in the place of
rigid retrenohment in Uie pay of the em-
ploye* of the City.

THE NEXT CAMPAIGN.
One consideration connected with the
Fall campaign seems to be overlooked by
gentlemen who talk of the policy of the
Bepnblican Party and the platform on
which it shall stand as matters that are sub-
ject to their entire control. Whether the
Administration shall be repudiated or ig-
nored, is a question of tactics. The feeling
predominant in the party must be consulted,
and the course^pursued may well be regu-
lated by the probable effect upon the con-
test. Very different is the case with refer-
ence to the positive issues that will force
themselves into the canvass. And when
prominent members of the party talk of
passing over the financial issue as one with
which each Congressional District may be
free to deal, and of rehoisting " the bloody
shirt" as a stroke of strategy that will be
sure to unite the party and call forth all its
energies, they simply show their own unfit-
ness for leadership and their inability to
comprehend the great exigencies of the
period.
The policy of a national party must bear
an obvious relation to topics that absorb
public attention, or have some direct bear-
ing upon important interests. " The
bloody shirt " would not satisfy either of
these conditions. It is no longer within the
domain of practical politics. No amount of
shrieking will impart to it vitality. Even if
it be deemed necessary to denounce the
action of the President, the controversy
which it closed cannot be reopened in its old
form. Other phases of what may still be
called the Southern question may challenge
attention, but " the bloody shirt " business
is ended for the present. The only thing that
can revive it will be some systematic injustice ,
some cruel and persistent wrong, on the
part of the Southern Governments, and of
this contingency, just now, we discern no
sign. Its occurrence depends upon the
ability of the more violent elements to over-
come this moderation which men like Wade
Hampton are inculcating, — and all the
probabilities point the other way. At any
rate, while condemning Mr. Hates' part in
the transactions which resulted in the
Southern settlement, the fact of the settle-
ment must be recognized, and judgment as to
its consequences postponed until these shall
have been developed. To wave "the
bloody shirt "by way of showing that the
party has not forgotten the President's bad
faith, would be the height of folly.
Nor would it be less out of place as a
commentary on those forms df the Southern
question which the Bepnblican Party will
be obliged to meet. So far as the restora-
tion of sound finance, is concerned, ^re
maybe apprehended from the West than
from the South. The latter can hardly be
expected to eare very much for the sanctity
of the debt, one of the products of the war ;
and unfortunately there are Southern
States whose treatment of their creditors in-
dicates the prevalenoe of a low standard of
financial integrity. But the Cotton States
may be counted among the supporters of re-
sumption and the retention of gold ias a
standard because of their own obvious in-
terest in keeping American maAets in a line
with the markets of the worid. Southern
elaims for damages, and Southern de^uids
for subsidies, come within a different cate-
gory. The Bepublioan Party will not be in
doubt as to the treatment to be aoooided to,
at tfaa dannr arising out of< the ofaliiiu.
iPipmipppi
Wni it be equally poait^ on tfa»>nbrte«ti tA
subsidies f We ««mot forget that 1h*
Texas-Pacific seheme for plundering the
^I^eaauiy, though nominal)y a Southern
xoeaavre, Is of Northern origin, is managed
by Northern men for the profit of Northern
jobibers, and depends for suo«ees upon
Northern votes. New-Orleans has a plan of
its own, and clustering around the Texas-
Paeifio are other plans more truly Southern
in their business associations. The general
subsidy question covers all of them, and
B^publicans must make up their minds to
reaffirm the pledges of their party against
the whole systeM. '
The need of positive declarations against
subsidies, however disguised, is rendered
more urgent by the participation of Northern
politicians in schemes for which the South
is in no degree responsible. The Pacific
Mail Company is the most voracious of the
claimants, next to the Texas-Pacific ; and
with the Pacific Mail are leagued Mr. John
Boach's Brazilian steam-ships and Mr.
Thomas Scott's Philadelphia and Liverpool
Line. The Pacific Mail does the lobbying ;
Mr. Boach gets up excursions, makes
the launch of a ship the pretext for
a grand lunch, and parades a large
part of Congress, with the President
to boot, as patrons of his enter-
prise. The spectacle of Congress aban-
doning business, and the President and
his Cabinet sinking their dignity, and lend-
ing themselves to the palpable jobbery of
the cnimlng Mr. Boach, is sufficiently hu-
miliating. The Bepnblican Party cannot
afford thus to connive at subsidies. It must
reassert its hostility to all contrivances for
enriching speculators, contractors, and cor-
porations at the cost of the tax-payers.
But the largest of all the issues that will
enter into the campaign is that which cer-
tam Republican managers propose to leave
out of the platform. If convenience alone
wenf to be consulted, the proposition would
be intelligible. Difficult as the financial
question confessedlyis, we can understand
the desire of small politicians to say noth-
ing about it. . They would have the Repub-
lican Party "all things to aU men " when the
currency and the public credit are in dis-
pute. These timid counselors forget that
the party cannot escape difficulties by
closing its eyes to them, and that
the position of the Democracy and the bold
assaults of the National Greenback organi-
zation win make concession impossible.
Evidently nothing will be gained by tem-
porizing tactics. The inflationists and
greenbaekers, together with the out-and-
out silver men, are too thoroughly in earnest
to be satisfied with non-committal declara-
tions. The majority of them may be ex-
pected to join the Western Democracy or to
cast their lot with the National movement,
whose rapid growth indicates the strength
of the opinions of which it is the legitimate
expression. The Republican Party cannot
keep those of its members who share these
opinions ; and it on^t not try to keep them
if it could. The effort would cost it the
votes of States it cannot spare, and
would be fatal to its moral influence. The
path of duty is in this instance also the
path of expediency. However strong the
inflation or the greenback or the silver ele-
ment in particular districts, the party
as a national organization has be-
fore it bnt one open path, and its
determination to follow this path should be
so clear that no excuse can be found for
mistuking it. There must be no terms with
inflationists, no more bargains with the ad-
vocates of a silver standard, no attempt to
make peace with ihose who would under-
mine the nation's credit and weaken the
foundations on which property rests. The
avowal of this purpose may drive off some
votes and entail the loss of some districts.
But it will strengthen the party among
honest men, and will enable it to hold its
ground in the future as the party with
whose ascendency the credit and honor of
the country a- e identified.
A DEMOCRATIC CONTEST.
The inconvenience of having fewer offices
than office-seekers is just now severely felt
by the Democratic Party. An open' insur-
rection has broken out in Ohio in conse-
quence of this impediment to hanitony.
There is a Governor of Ohio, whose name is
Bichard M. Bishop. During the campaign
which resulted in his election he was
known a? "Uncle Dick." It may be re-
marked that a candidate who is endowed
with qualities which invite such a nick-
name is not likely to cut an important figure
in statesmanship. "Uncle Dick" was fa-
vored by his party because he had plenty of
money for election expenses. " Uncle Dick "
was and is a Trustee of the Cincinnati
Southern Railroad, and it was supposed that
when he had elected himself by paying lib-
erally-from his hoards, and had made money
plenty in the Demooratio Party for several
months, he would settle down in the Guber-
natorial office and attend to the affairs of
the Cincinnati Southern Railroad, and let
politics alone. Some of the more Aandid
members of his party reminded Mr. Bishop,
during the election and since, that he would
not have been nominated if it had not been
understood that he had " cordsof money."
In this respect he closely resembles the late
Democratic candidate for President of the
United States.
Since the Ohio Legislature met. however,
it is discovered that Bishop is really Gov-
ernor of the State. The railroad corpora-
tion of which he is Trustee have made
war upon him in both branches of the Le-
gislature. It is alleged that a railroad trus-
tee is Governor, instead of the Governor
beins a trustee. This is bad enough, bnt
it is also alleged that the Governor, in col-
lusion with the Senate, has actually infln-
'enced many appointments in the. gift of the
Warden of the' Oiiio Penitentiary. The in-
mates of that admirable institution are,- of
course, mainly selected from the Democratic
Party- It is even said that not one Bepnb-
lican can be found among all those who are
thus cored for and nourished by the State.
It is presumed that- the keepers, dep-
uty wardens, guards, cleaners, and bottle-
washers of the institution are also Demo-
craiB. It is a Democratic establishment
throughout. It ia a place where they put
none but Democrats on guard. Bnt the
Oido House of Bepresentativea are eon-
vineed that reform is necessary in the man-
agement of the Penitentiary. Many'Demo-
cratie inmates of the Penitentiary think so
too. So an investigation is ordered. And
the inqoiry is mainly directed against the
person by the name of Bishop. The Hoose
Have DMwda serie* of r«s«^iitioD« reoitiiue
9, 1878,
tiieir grievaiMW and ordering an iBvaUHga-
tion into five ^peeifie ohargea and allega-
tions. The praamble to these resolutions
sets forth that it is alleged that the Peniten-
tiary Warden ' "has ignored the claims of mem-
bers," " haa made them promises and then
wiUfuBy brdun. them, thereby deceiving
by a systenr of falsehood the friends of the
Administration ^ that deserters and boun-
ty-jnmpert have been appointed ; that
"Senators have claimed and received the
lion's share of ^pointments," and that the
aforesaid Bishop, (sardonically called " his
Excellency" in the preamble,) haa been
" dictating the.lorgest number of appoint-
ments, thus usingf his official position in
granting favors, to special pets at the sacri-
fice of a larg^ number of life-long, hard-
working Democrats of the State." This
preamble is slightly infirm in its grammati-
eal construction, bnt it is evident that the
Ohio Democratic House of Bepresentativea
are terribly in earnest
When a Democratic organization arouses
itself to make a strike for offices, there is
certain to be serious work. Therefore, the
Ohio House of Bepresentativea rush
straight to the mark. They want to know
how many appointments have been " dic-
tated V by the person by the name of Bishop ;
how many have been " dictated " by Sena-
tors ; how the.appointment of one 'Welten
was secured ; whether most, if not all. of
Warden McWhobter's appointees are not
"notorious bounty- jumpers and deserters";
whether said McWhorter "is not guilty
of selling appointments in the Peniten-
tiary for money," and whether his
false pledges to the House do not unfit
him for his x>osition. With a ^very few ex-
ceptions, this implied indictment would fit
the case of Col. Pole, late Door-keeper of
the House of Bepresentatives, United States
Congress. The two criminals are regarded
in pretty much the same light by the Demo-
cratic Party to which they belong. There
has been an unjust discrimination some-
where, and both officials have been guilty
of making promises which they could not
keep.
It is a mighty matter for the Democratic
Party. It was long since settled,, on the
authority of a Democratic statesman,
that to the victors belong the spoils. It
is only necessary to divide the spoils
equitably among the victors. In his vain
attempt to do this in his office. Door-
keeper Pole has just broken down, as.
Door-keeper Fitzhcgb did before him. And
now the illustrious McWhobter and his
colleague. Bishop, have come to grief in
the same way. The Ohio Bepresentatives
may not have any views upon propositions
of local law, but they have decided views
concerning the distribution of the appoint-
ments in the Ohio Penitentiary guards.
Following the example of Gloves, Cltxkk,
Whitthorne, and other Democrats at
Washington, they demand an investigation.
Ohio is agitated over the subject. The Cin-
cinnati Enquirer — ^high Democratic authori-
ty—calls the resolutions "a mine exploded " ;
and the party is rent into factions, some
siding with Bishop, some with the iUus-
tribus McWhobter, and some with the
deeply-wronged Bepresentativea. It is a
great contest The Republican minority
look on with impartial interest, while the
Democratic majority snap and snarl' over
the broken victuals of the Penitentiary.
'What an edifying sight it. would be if this
same party were squabbling over national
official patronage as it squabbles over the
Ohio State Prison and poor Pole's appoint-
ments I ^^^^^^^^^_^^^^
TEE PRESENT PEASE OF TEE ABMY
BILL.
It appears that the House Military Com-
mittee have at last got their Army Reorgan-
ization bill into a form in which they are
nearly ready, not only to recommend but to
risk its passage. Looking upon the result
as it now stands, the natural reflection may
be that the last state of that bill is worse
than the first ; bnt looking upon what has
been out out of the bill and lopped off from
it, we see at once that it must .have been
improved.
To give a general idea of the usage to
which the bill has been subjected during its
several reconmiitments, we may say that
after being reported to the House no f eWer
than four times, the forty-two sections have
shrunk to thirty-six, and that more than
twenty important changes have been made.
In the regimental consolidations, the num-
ber of artillery regiments has been fixed at
four instead of three, which, cOnsideringthe
extent of our coast-line and the number of
important forts and harbors, is an improve-
ment. Instead of reducing the num-
ber of Second Lieutenants in each
cavalry and infantry company to one, two
are vouchsafed'; but the number of Corpo-
rals, after being reduced to four, and then
made eight again, now appear reduced, as
at first, to four ; and, instead of a Major for
each of the proposed three battalions of the
infantry regiments, two Majors are to be
g^ven, according to Gen. Sherman's recom-
mendation in 1876. As for the privates,
the maximum is now madsone hundred for
the cavalry company, and the minimum for
theinfantiy eighty, instead of a maximum
of eighty-five in the former, and a minimum
and maximum of sixty and one hundred and
fifty, respectively, in the latter. The fluc-
tuations on this latter point reveal a curious
state of uncertainty as to what the true or-
ganization should be. '
In the reorganization of the staff depart-
ments, the original bill prescribed that cer-
tain officers should have the rank and pay
of C<4.onel, Lieutenant-Colonel, and Major
"of cavalry"; but this latter phrase is now
in each case stricken out The old phrase-
ology was perhaps more exact ; for, although
the pay proper is actually now the same in
all these grades for all three arms, it wi»
not so formerly and may not be again — in
which latter contingency a needless oppor-
tunity for wrai^jling might be given as to
the meaning of the iuexaot phraseology.
Passing half a'.dozen other changes in the
staff sections and in the terms proposed for
the voluntary retirement of officers, we dis-
cover a total disappearance of the provision
for retaining fifty supernumerary officers in
the event of the transfer of the Indian Bu-
reau to the War Department, thus showing
a decile to avoid eomplication with this lat-
tw question. In fact, eJctreme anxiety not
to aatagoniie anybody who will be willing,
or who may 'be thought willing, to cnir ^wn
the Army, is tiie leading spirit of all these
vmnKOOt tinksrings oi. tiie bill. The Brig-
adier-Qeneral is to have bnt one ud, instead
of;two.a». at first sroBOMd: and' we mav
add that one ins snggeated as sofSeient by
Gen. Shxbmait. Then, pasaug more minor
changes, we find the provision for lineal
promotion stricken out, though an elaborate
separate bill has since been introduced on
this subject by Mr. Maish; and the provi-
sion for the entry of lineal rank in the Beg-
later is also modified.
The original provision regarding details
to the Military Academy has also disap-
peared. The retiring age is lengthened
from 62 to 66 years, but the forty-five years'
longevity service entitling to retirement is
now allowed to include also service as an
enlisted man. The provision for geograph-
ical recruiting service is stricken out — ^per-
haps wisely, since, while it palpably has
many considerations in its fivror, it has not
yet been fully discussed. But the striking
out of the provision for compulsory retire-
ment is not a good change, as this promised
well for the constant in'rigoration of the
Army,- and was carefully guarded. Finally,
the provision for the abolition of distinc-
tions of color and of assignments to colored
regiments has been stricken out, and left to
run its chances in Senator Bubnside's bill
to that effect, now pending, while the sec-
tions providing for the re-entry of Confed-
erate officers into the military service, and
the absurd one of disbanding the Army on
a failure to pass the annual appropriation
for it, have been thrown out from fear of
defeat
Such are the modifications by which it is
hoped to give the bill a better chance of
passage. But they only serve to bring out
in stronger relief the main purpose of the
bill, which is to reduce the effective
strength of the Army. This is a sort of re-
organization which this same Congress has
once voted down, and we see no reason for
supposing that it will reverse that decision.
No popular demand has been made for
weakening the Army. The present basis
of 25,000 enlisted men is sufficiently good
to escape experimental cutting down ; if, on
this basis, the House Military Committee
should direct its efforts to introducing some
changes in battalion and company composi-
tion, such as Army officers have long recom-
mended, and such as are, in fact, incorpo-
rated in the pending bill, their work might
be useful. In addition, there is a great field
for reform, and not only for reform, bnt for
retrenchment, with a positive increase of
efficiency, in a thorough reorganization
of' the staff departments. Consolida-
tion and simplicity are there greatly
needed. If, instead of permanent appoint-
ments in the staff corps, these latter were
subject to the periodical assignment of line
officers to staff duties, and the rettim, in
course of time, of staff officers to regimental
duties, the result would probably be a wider
education of officers, and the general im-
provement of the service. Such, at any
rate, seems to be the opinion of those Army
officers who have most cttrefully studied the
working of foreign systems. But any val-
uable reorgani^tion of the service in this re-
spect should be the .elaborate work of boards
of Army officers of the 'widest range of ob-
servation and experience, and the soundest
judgment, rather than the hasty botching of
politicians, preoccupied with what they may
fancy that party interests demand.
TEE FACTS OF THE CASE.
During the recent exceptionally mild
Winter there ha ve been little or noopportuni-
ties for crime offered to the plumbers, and
hence it was generally supposed that great
distress existed among them. Good men
naturally rejoiced at this state of things.
Many excellent fathers of families pointed
out to their children the supposed fact that
the plumbers were starving, as an illustra-
tion of the truth that the way of transgress-
ors is hard, and hundreds of Sunday-school
Superintendents pictured to horrified chil-
dren the death-bed of the gaunt and hungry
plumber, -with the 'riew of warning them
that even in this world 'wickedness some-
times meets 'with its proper punishment.
There are probably few kind-hearted and
philanthropic people who are not firmly con-
-rinced that & delightful amount of destitu-
tion and a most encouraging mortality have
prevailed among' the plumbers during the
last few months. It is painful to dispel
these pleasiiig illusions, bnt it must be done.
If the community is suffered to be lulled
into a false security by the erroneous belief
that plumbers are rapidly becoming extinct,
it will be so much the worse in the end for
those who have embraced that comforting
delusion.
A month ago one of our best citizens,
who owns several dwelling-houses, and is
consequently in much financial distress,
fell into a condition of confirmed melan-
choly. His physician, who is an unusually
skillful man, hit upon the idea of cheering
up his patient by inducing him to 'visit the
various plumbers' shops. He told the
melancholy citizen that the plumbers were
actually starving to death, and that he
would undoubtedly find a great deal of
wholesome and rational amusement in con-
templating their suffering. The patient
greeted the remark with a smile — ^the first
that has illumined his countenance in many
months — and instantly rang for his carriage.
As he entered the carriage he turned to bid
the physician good-bye, and asked : " Do
you really believe they are starving V and
when the learned and astute man prompUy
replied that they were, he laughed loudly
and drove away in high spirits. He returned
a few hours later, gave a sealed envelope to
his 'wife, irith the direction to hand it to his
physician, went instantly to bed, and died
at 11:35 P. M.
On opening the envelope, the physician
found that it contained a report on the con-
dition of New- York plumbers. Instead of
finding them in the agonies of starvation,
the patient had been shocked to find that
they were one and all in high spirits, and
apparently full of business. They were
well dressed and apporentiy well fed, and
displayed even more independence and in-
sblenee than they had ever displayed before.
Several times the astonished 'visitor was
told, as soon as he entered a plumber's
shop, " Now, you get right oitt of here ;
we have more jobe on hand than we can do
in six months, and yonll have to go to some
other shop 'with your business." In short,
the plnmbers were evidentiy in the most
prosperous condition, and tiie effect upon
the melancholy patient 'was so depresdng
that he went home and died of what the
physician asserted was a broken heart
'What will be the effect upon the public
when it besomes generaUy known that the
tdombera m* not atarvins. but. on the eoo-
trary, are more proq^erons than ever, re-
mains to be seen.
"But how," it may be asked, "call
plumbers flourish where there are no wa-
ter-pipes to mend V Before answering this
question it may be mentioned that about
four months ago a newspaper professing to
be tiie organ of .the plumbers made its ap-
pearance. It was remarkable tiiat instead
of boldly defending plumbers and pretend-
ing that their trade was ' a necessary evil,
which should be regulated by law rather
than prohibited as a erime, the plumbers'
organ devoted itself, aoparentiy, to aesthet-
ics. Each week it gave up the greater i>art
of its space to a discussion of that beautiful
and affecting topic, drainage. It d'welt
upon the evils of false taste in traps, and
set before the people the purest and noblest
specimens of waste-pipes. It called to its
aid the services of the draughtsman and the
eng^eer, and published the most exquisite
sketches of interiors, showing the beauties
of good drainage, and the most admirable
landscapes, 'with elegant sewers in the fore-
ground. Slowly but surely it instilled into
the minds of the readers the belief that
rude, uncultivated ^drainage is the source of
all eril, and that an entirely new sort of
pipes and traps must be placed in every
house in this City,- unless we .are prepared
to die of half & dozen objectionable diseases.
At the same time there appeared in other
journals elaborate critical essays upon the
need of a renaissance in drainage, and lec-
turers upon the principles and practice of
draining suddenly began to infest the
lyceum and to advocate what they called,
the great drainage reform.
Now, although not a word 'was said con-
cerning plnmbers in connection 'with this
a^tation concerning draining, it is per-
fectly apparent that no change or im-
provement in drainage can be made with-
out the aid of plumbers. There can be
littie doubt that it is to the secret machina-
tions of these subtle and far-seeing men
that this whole drainage a^tation is due.
■When the recent mild 'Winter deprived them
of their usual booty, they formed a plan by
which they could more than compensate
themselves for their losses. They employed
agents to fill the public mind with distrust
of the present methods of drainage and to
convince every householder that unless his
house should, be supplied -with a new and
costly apparatus for drainage, he and his
family would contract diphtheria, typhoid
and scarlet fevers, cholera, softening of the
brain, morbus Coxii, broken legs, consump-
tion, railway collisions, chicken-pox, and a
score of other diseases. This nefarious
conspiracy has been completely successful.
Everywhere the plumbers are overwhelmed
with orders for drain-pipes and traps, and
before the Summer is over every plumber
in this City will be a man of independent for-
tune, and ■will lay upon us a yoke of charges
so heavy that either it 'wUl crush us to the
earth or 'wiU compel us to resist -with arms
iu our hands the rule of the plumbing
power. .

Waerisotom, Satnrday, April 6, 1878.
The Democratic majority, the bardened
Sindbad of the Home has got rid of its "old
man of the sea," "old man Polk," as hissym-
pathetie friend Mr. Eden called him. As ■
bodv< the Democrats were pretty stron^y ex-
ercised by this spasm of political virtns, though
some individuals fought bravely for their man
—notably Ur. Eden, of Illinois. If the angnst
chamber of legislation — sometimes profanely
styled a " bear garden '° — had been the garden
of "this other Eden," poor Polk wonld
never have been driven out of it before
the flaming sword of tiie awful angc3 of dvll
service reform. He opposed with pathetie elo-
qnenee tfae^pntting of " a brand of disgrace on
tbe brow " of the unfortunate Door-keeper, and
washed his hands of all complicity in tbe emd
proceeding. There seems to be snch a diiier-
enee in brow!>, in this matter of investigation
and punishment of of&cial misdemeanor. Thei^
is a peculiar seni^itiveness and sanctity about
the Inow Democratie it must be admitted. Upon
that " chaste, nnsmirched brow," however,
brands sometinies refuse to do their work, and
'• shame is ashamed to sit." I doubt if
many of his party really think any the
worse of Mr. Polk for his Irregular proceedings
in office ; and I doubt more if they have the
right to condemn him, for they themselves are
not guiltless. I thought that some of the points
in Mr. Eden's defense of his friend irere
strong, and shotild have been eoasidered. Hon-
orable gentlemen — Bepnblican as well as Demo-
cratic members — ^are much to blame for con-
doning these reprehensible transactions — for
winking at these Irregularitiea Tbey most
have known ail along that Mr. Polk's employes
were greatly in excess of the force allowed by
law. - They saw pages flying about as thick as
leaves before an Autumn wind. They knew
there were too many pagee for the Door-keep-
er's regular book of appointments. 'Whenever
there ia a furor, a rage of investigation, a tre-
mendous access of polit'cal virtue, we may be
pretty sure that some poor scapegoat is being
heavily loaded with sios not his own, prepara-
tory to being sent into the wilderness of pri-
vate life. I have no doubt that Mr. Polk is
a very good-natured, kindlv, obliging per-
son, bnt that is evidently not the sort of man
to be intrusted with so much power and pat-
ronage— with a position in which he must
be continually subjected to a pressure behind
and arotmd him for places where places are not.
Doubtless the Democrats -will now proceed to
And a man of Puritan honesty and Spartan
firmness for the office, and then, unincumbered,
start on a new coiirse of Investigation and ar-
raignment of Bepubliean transgressors. Mr.
Frye's speech on this matter was exceedingly
witty, brilliant indeed, while that of Mr. Cox,
of Ohio, was an admirab'.e argument, calm,
serious, just, and judicious — such an effort as
can altpays be safely cx.'^ett^ from him. One
of Mr. Folk's sinrdiest d?fender.< was Hr. Cook,
of Georgia. I was struck by the circumstance
of most of that gentleman's friends hailing from
the South. One of Mr. Cook's points of defense
was the fact if fact it be. that Col. Polk had
" by his administration of the office aaved
money to Government.'* It may be that he
has, if Government shalUrepudiate the elaims
of all his irregularly appointed assistants, and
this " golden salve" ought to heal the wounded
honor of that most economic House. But this
sordid way of looking at the matter — ^this dol-
I&r-and-cent estimate of questions of political
morality and propriety, is not not much in
harmony with otir old idea of a chivalrous,
high-toned, free-h&nded Southern spirit "In
the sweet by and by," when we get these men
to rule over us again. I suspect we ' shall flnd
that that favorite Northern idea of the superi-
ority of Georgians, 'Virginians, and South Caro-
linfans to thrifty and saving Kew-Englanders —
of their noble disregard of considerations of
filthy lucre in dealing with questions of political
ethics and party honor — is, now at least, whal^
ever it may have been in primitive plantation
times, as much a popular fallacy as tiiat other
'old Yankee notion that —
" The hull Southern popperlaee
Axe Spartans — all on the keen jump for Therm<9P«r-
lu«."
Mr. Cook also protested against a weak-minded
attentltHi to the outcry of corruption and mal-
feasance from the other side of the House, as
he once protested agninst the movement against
Fitzbugh for unseemly boasting and swelling, for
languaze. conduct, and orthogriLpfay unbecom-
ing a door-keeping gentleman. He thought his
party by this time ought to be insensible to
such reproaches — ought to refuse to permit its
peace to be disturbed by such cowardly fears.
A gay lady of the old French cotirt, on being re-
monstrated with by a virtuous friend, replied
with a shrug of her pretty shoulders. " Ah,
Madame, allow me to enjoy my bad reputatio^"
'When I hear such Republican orators as
Frye, Hale, Cox, Foster, and Garfield in the
House, and Conkling, Edmunds, Booth, and
Blaine in the Senate, I am struck with the
amount of disciplined brain power, of literav
culture, of eloquerceand wit, and what is bettCT,
of energy and will, yet among leading Republi-
cans, in whose ranks the voids left by Stevens,
Sumner, Morton, and Wade are becoming
less and less apparent. These men had done
their woric. or work congenial to them bad be-
gun to' give out. 'Ibe fact of the case
seems to be that there is too much bnun,
too much leadership, too many heada
A Washington paper states that a mgot or two
since, 'a caucus of Republican Congressmen and
leading politiciAns was held, to consider a plan
of conciliation. There were some of the ugliest
msU'ontents and conspirators, as, for instance,
.the two Chandlers — the burly Brutus and the
" lean and hungry Cassius " — and some of the
loveliest of the conciliators, like Hoar and Fos-
ter— but though tbe session was prolonged, it
was stormy, and restilted in a lamentable failure.
No plan for adjusting tbe unhappy differences
now\spUtting the Republican Party eoold be
flxed^pon, and every tuan went bis own way,
more than ever wedded to bis own ideas.
The partv at present reminds me of I^s
Fontaine's "DraQOH d niimntrs tttte." The
monster appear^ to the narrator, looking
over a hedge, with his hundred heads all
turned different ways. The blood of the
traveler ran cold. He feared his hour was
come. But no harm followed the fright — for
no ugly and scaly body, no tortuotis aqd ven-
omous tail, Mpeared above or broke through
the hedge. Evidently, the heads could ^gt
agree in caucus upon any one course to take.
But presently another sort of monster appeared.
He had one head ^nd a hundred tails. Over
came the big head and tbe formidable
body, and made way for th» tails, which all fol-
lowed through tbe same opening. At this sixfat,
which meant btisiness and mischief, the narim-
tor took to his heels. This second dragon ia
like unto the Democratic Party in its best day*
of unitv and discipline — and the BepnbUeaii
Party of to-day is too like the hydra. After
all that is said of its lack of leaders, it is stronger
in Its head men than in its following. They ax*
nearly all head men. The President* SonUMTB
oollcv and his civil service reform as wreaked'
upon anzilialy party organizations, ha* lopped off
tail after taU. till the hydra is seriously crippled
and tmbalaneed. I can hardly wonder that onr
friend Hr. Howe, the other day, after eloquent-
ly summing up the record o^ the Rernsblican
Party — a glorious record on the whole, tfaoagh
disfigured by some unseemly blots — fell Into a
state of desDoudeney in view of the incoming
tide of Democracy rising sullenly and itsadUy
higher and higher, even to the Senate, that
once high and dry Republican stronghold. It
is well to face the inevitable evil manfnily yet
cheerfully. The French say "misfortune is
good for something." and some good will come
out of die defeat and decadence of the Bepub-
liean Party. I would entreat tbe Senator to
" consider 'it not so deeply" the fact tliat bis be-
loved party " totters, totters, perham to its
fall." Let him not give way, like Mark Aat^

and regeneration. Over my table, as I write,
BMgs a leaf of the strange air-plant of Florida.
When I suspended it against the wall, by a
thread, a few weeks ago, it was but a sorry bit
of foliaee — not exactly withered, bnt dull and
flabby. After a while, minute pink points ap-
l»«red along its raeged edges, which grew rap-
idly and became of a lively green, until now,
when the poor old leaf is almost encircled with
Bonrishing yoong shoots. . It has renewed ana
redoubled its life.
I cannot deny, though I would like to, that
there is discord and disunion, amounting to
utile less than disintegration, among the Re-
publican Party here. Such little unpleasant af-
fairs as that connected with the appointment of
a successor to the late Register, Mr. Allison,
are not calculated to allay the irritation of dis-
affected gentlemen. You remember the account
of the visit of the Pennsylvania members.
White and Thompson, to the President
and Secretary Sherman m the Interest
of one Sullivan, and how diplomat-
ically, not to say disingenuously, they
were treated. A Philadelphia I^ess reporter'
who interviewed Mr. White, gave an amusing
account of the affair. He told how these honor-
able gentlemen were "much offended"; how
Uiey both spoke np ana out to the astonished
Secretary rather freely— Thompson in particu-
lar, while striding up and down, striking the
floor with his cane, emphasizing words which
needed no emphasis ; how White, being a church
member, the husband of a church member,
a Christian Association man, or something,
couldn't swear, but wanted to ; and how Thomp-
son beingnothing of the sort, swore all he wanted
to, and had a good time "freeing his mind-"
I am afraid we all had a reprehensible enjoy-
ment of that story, but the next morning we
were rebuked and eclipsed bv a correspondence
effusive and somewhat elusive betwe^ the
Secretary and Mr. Thompson. The latter, per-
haps, felt that his usefulness with the irreligious
and his popularity with the religious portion
of his constituents had been impaired by the
reports of his hot temper and profanity, which
had gone forth as emanating from Mr. White,
that mild and moral associate, who is " not a
swearing man." So Mr. Thompson 'fixed on a
plan of rehabilitation through this Pickwickian
correspondence. It not often behavior so
" splenetic and rash " is followed by repentance
•o prompt and effectual. Yet the process of a
second appeal to that keen and forbidding of-
4cial must have been rather disagreeable.
" There was a man of Butlcrtowa
Ho was so wondroos wise,
" He jumped into a briar-bush
And scratched oat both bis eyes ;
And when he saw his eyes were out,
With all bis might and main.
He jumped into another bush.
And scratched them in again."
I do not think that many people here, even
among the most timid and desponding Repub-
licans, are much disturbed by the extraordinary
demonstration of the Maryland Legislature
against the Administration. Least affected,
perhaps, of any, is the President, who stiQ
wears, even in the absence of Mrs. Hayes,
the same cheerful, hopeful, and happy-go-lucky
expression, the same serene, settled-down look
he wore when first he was initiated into his lofty
office, in a time of sullen anger, of scarcely
•oppressed rebellion, of lowering bate, of
menace and dread. A soldier, nsed to the blare
of tmmpet.s, he is not dismayed by the trumpet
of Blair, summoning him to surrender his iU-
gotten power and place. They say the doughtv
Montgomery makes very light of his "big
job," goes about with the most jauntv and gaP
lant air, humming bits of the old Confederate
war song ;
"Prom hill to bill, from creek to creek,
Potomar calls to Chesapeake,
Maryland: My Maryland!"
He declares, with a cheery confidence which
recalls the comforting pronunciamentos of Mr.
Seward, that all the trouble vrill be over
in 60 days — Hayes out and Tilden in,
and all the machinery of the new
Government working to a charm — Democrats
In all the Federal offices, and wine dinners at
tho ^Vhite House ; if only Congress will fall in-
to his little scheme. He assures us that if the
anti-Administration Republicans will ally them-
selves with the Democrats for this " barring
out " of the master, the country will accept the
:hange — sustain the brilliant coud d' ^tat. Per-
ha{)s he is safe in saying that much. The legend
of St. Denis states that after that holy man was
decapitated, he, being dissatisfied with the spot
of bii martyrdom, took up his head and walked
— " promenaded himself — with it In his hand to
a more eligible site for a memorial church, the
site of the present grand and gloomy
burial place of French royalty, where he laid
himself down and gave up his tenacious ghost.
' One day Cardinal Polignae. in relating this re-
markable story to Mme. Deffaut. dwelt particu-
larly on the distance, a full league, traversed by
the saint under circumstances so unfavorable to
locomotion. " I see not so great wonder in that,
your Emidence;" said the lady, " the length of
the way is immaterial, for in such cases 'tis the
first step thac is the difficulty." If Mr. Blaircan
depose the President, the' rest may be ea-sy
enough. Were he the champion of any other
hero, he might possibly succeed, but
Democrats say they will risk nothing
lor a man who went back on them,
who by his lack of nerve and plucky assertion
destroyed his own chances and the fair hopes
of his party. They say the Presidency was not
his to make away with, but the priie. the
property, the rightful possession of the Democ-
racy, and that the Democracy will never trust
bim more. Says the nursery rhyme :
"Sammy sot hold of a match one dny,
Sammy set fire to a stack of nay ;
Soon bay, bam, and house were ashes and dost.
And Sammy'a papa tamed away in dlaeust."

The monthly meeting of the New- York Asso-
ciation for the Protection of Game was held last
sight at the Hotel Branswidc, Hon. Robert B. Roose-
velt, Freaident, in the chair. Senator -Alfred Wagataff,
Jr., of the Committee on Game Laws, reported that a
bm In the Assembly in relation to the appointment
of State ^ame Constables was progressing favor-
ably. The President inqnired whether anything
had been done toward providing for the incorpora-
tion of the association. Mr. 'Whitehead, senior coun-
sel, soggeated that one of the existing laws for the in-
corporation of associations of all descriptions should
be amended by inserting the words, "Association for
the Protection of Game." It was sabseqnentlr di-
reeted that Mr. "Whitehead should draw up an ap-
propriate bill for the incorporation of the association,
and transmit it to Senator Waestaff for prea*<ntation
to the Legislature. A complaint about riie taking of
fish by nets in Schoharie Lake was also referred to
Senator WagstafT. Mr. Whitehead drew Che atten-
tion of the association to the fact that a number of
"Wlla providing for the modiQcatlon of the Game
laws in the interest of certain localities had been in-
troduced in the Legislature. They were detrimental
to the general laws for the protection of game, which
had been passed after so nincn labor, and should l>e
condemned.
3dr. Thomas K. Cuthbert, Secretary, read the nsnal
pumber of communications from dijEferent parta of
the country requesting information in relation to
the laws for the protection of game, all of which
had been promptly answered. He also read a com.
munieatlon from Mr. Seth Green, one of the State
Fish Commissioners, statinfc that they were busy at
the works in distributing vonng frv and mature fish.
About 3,000,000 of salmon trout fry and 1,000
mature bass had iieen distributed, and the distribu-
tion of brook trout frr bad also been begun. They
had on hand at>oat L6bO,00<> fry, for all of which
orders had been received. Reports from all parts of
the State were good, and he thought they would
soon get excellent fishing without troing far from
home. Senator Wagstaff's amendment to the Con-
stitution in relation to the manner of electing mem-
bers went over to the next meeting. The following
gentlemen were elected members of the association ;
Z>istriet. Attorn^ Benjamin E. Plielps, J. Harson
Bhoadca, PanI 'rheband. Dr. Frederick G. Winston,
and Perry Belmont. Mr. 'Whitehead made a satis-
'faetory report on the condition of the lawsuits in
progress. The members then adjourned to the snp-

BRIEF ONE BT WILLIAM pCtlEK B&TANT.
One of the largest and most sparkling of the
ovatloni to Bayard I'aylorwas giTenintha Lladar-
kruu Hall last eTaxiiiis. Xt was a German "Com-
men," a real commezs. Math a« Kaiser William's
subjects delight in, and Kaiser Hsyas' snbjaets bold
whenever they- can find the occaiion and the beer.
There was a fine occasion last nt^t in dvins the
new Minister a hearty eend-^if, and there was a fine
commers.
The big Llederkranz Hall was folL There was
not room for another man. One more glass of beer
mtghthaTe foond its way in, bnt it would have met
instant death. Beer had no more chance there than
reeds before a hurricane. The most promtnent object
in entering the hall was the laige platform Irith the
gentlemennponit. IntheeentresatI>r.F.Zinner.Pres-
ident, and at his right the gaeat of the evening,
Bayard Taylor, calmly smoUng a very large elgar.
By the way. they were all smoking. And What is
that before the new Minister f A foaming, spark-
ling, rapidly-diminishing glass of amber beer ! Then
came WilBam Cullen Bryant, at the President's left,
with a very lar« and very tall clay enp, with a silver
lid, with the white foam making its way over the
top. There's no denying it, it was the biggest sort
of a "schooner." The President had a cup that
would laugh at half a gallon, and could stretch itself
a little and take in the whole four^ quarts. Hr. F.
Behringer was another of the gentlemen on the
stage, and Prof. Schlegel, of the Kormal College,
Mr. li. Hoffman, and Dr. Sehoonmaker, the German
Consul.
Underneath the platform, stretching all the way
down to the other end ef the haU« were 15 large ta-
bles, at which were seated not less than 500 gentle-
men, SOObeer glasses, (too often, alas, quite empty,)
and 500 little plates of matches. Added to this
came the very agreeable, but rather thick, smoke
from 500 good cigars. There was the noise of the
clinking of many KUsse^ of the striking of many
matches, of the clapping of many hands, and the soft
gurgling of manr gallons of foaming beer as it rolled
and rippled deliciously down 500 appreciative
throats. There was the rush of many waiters, the
music of the band, and the constant and happv
shouts of many enthusiastic sons of the Vaderland.
It is possible that there are some uninformed
Americans who do not know vhat a commers Is. It
is jolly. The object is to drinic just u much beer as
yon can hoM, smoke just asmanyeigarsas you can bite
the ends off of. and see who can sit in his chair the
loneest. It is an institution worthy the gods. And.
bless ns. how the beer pours down. It's np we all
stand, and down she all goes ; and. here, waiter, fill
'em up again. The man who can drinic the most
(and the reporter will pledge his word that Bayard
Taylor is no slouch at the business) Is the best man.
There Is nothing to eat — and who woiild eat jrhen he
can blow off the foam and have ber filled up again f
The hall was beautifully decorated. Over the
platform was a large banner bearing the German

The proceedings were beeuu with the singine- of

at the end of every song and 8t>eech of ihe evening,
the Itesident aroi^e and rapped three times loudly
upon the table. At this everybody else stood np.
" Eins. Bwei, drei." shouted the I^esident." Every-
body drank. " Eins, swei, drel," he ihouted sgalu,
and 500 elasses rattled and jingled on the table.
" Eins. swei. drel." a third time, and every glass
was held above its ownor'a bead. *' Eins, swei.

pounded down on the table with a doll thud.
At the end of each table lay two crossed swords —
firobably to protect the beer — President Zinsser de-
ivered a short luldress, saying that Mr. Taylor was
"one of them literary felleirs," and not a poUtidau.
Dr. A. Jacob! read a speech that outlasted many
fillings of the glasses. Music ; and then Bnyard
Taylor, amid enthusiastic cheering, arose and said :
MtFbiends: If the German character is really
as sympathetic as the Germans themselves assert,
then you will have compa53ion on me. and not ex-
pect me to address you formally, for I am not only
at a loss for words, bnt I am exhausted by all the
ovatioua of friendship that have been given me. I
should certainly have endeavored to escape this ova-
tion were it not for the fact that it was offered me
by Germans. But I mnst accept it even at the rbk
that Tay strength will not permit me ap-
propriately to express my appreciation. I
realize the fact that my German -American
fellow-citizens regard me aa a couBecting link
between German and American life, between Ger-
man aiid American thoneht and intercourse. To be
this has really always b^n my endeavor, and will so
remain. If, however, I have accomplluhed any-
thiii(f that will Kurvive. it is not altogether my own
merit. If mv German friends had not shown me inch
hearty recoKnition. such ready appreciation and sup-
port, my efforts would not have been so fruitful.
It has been my great good fortune to have
learned to know the intellectual heroes of the
German people : that Lessing, Herder, SebiDer,
Richtcr, (joethe have solved for me manyof the in-
terminable problems of life. Sheer good fortnne it
is. no merit of mine. But Providence Is often iuex-
plieably kind, and. In this case. It lets advantage
ripen into honor. Everything that has helped to
strengthen and develop me. everything for which I
should be so grateftil, is now as a wreath placed ut>on
my hat. Can I accept It otherwise than in humility 1
I beg of yon to make it as light as possible, that I
mhy not feel the burden. Pluck off each undeserved
leaf, and let no bud prematurelv bloom. Let me
assure you that the work of my life
is not yet completed, and give me friend-
ly wishes for the fotnro rather than
praise for the past. And now 1 will say that I am
related to you. I have also German blood in my
veins. One of my ancestors was a Protestant cler-
gyman, who came to Pennsylvania in the beginnins
of the last century. At least a quarter German, I
ask you to join with me in this sentiment: "Long
live, and freshly live, on our soil German feeling,
German honesty, andijlerman fidelity." [Cheers.]
Mr. William Cullen Bryant, being loudly called
for, responded in German :
Gemtlkuxn : I thank yon for the -ovation, and I
can only say, as my friend Taylor has said before,
"long live German feeling, German honesty, and
German fidelity."
Mr. Bryant was followed bv Hon. Oswald Otten-
dorfer and a great variety of cnarming music.

AMVSEMENTS,
SHAKESPEARE AT LTEIC THEATRE.
Lyric Theatre, a large place of assemblage
which was formally known aa Lyric Hall, wss ten-
anted last evening by an audience of about 200 per-
sons, four-fifths of whom were colored. They
had been bronght tosather by the annonnee*
"ment that the " great and <ml7 genaina
colored trsgedlan, " Mr. B. J. Ford, wonld
appear in the "title-r61e in Shakespeare's entire,
tragedy in five acts, entitled * Richard HI.,* " and
they remained nntU the close of the performance
with a steadiness of purpose which indicated the
liveliest interest in the proceedings. The representi-
tion did not afford many opportnnltiea for nproart-
ons fun, for It was carried on with so ntwh grim
earnestness and imperturbable stolidity as to -weigh
down the spirits of the most buoyant. But many of
iu Incidents were exceedingly latighable. All the
acton were colored, and no two of them were of the
same hue. The^ costumes were typical of every
period known in connection with the cos-
tnmer's art, and combinations of green
and crimson and scarlet and orange were among
the quietest resorted to. The scenery was in keep-
ing with the dresses. A room with green wall-paper,
a single door, and no window, did duty for the
apartments In the palace, and Olareriee lay in duress
In a cell pictured by the ground floor of
an Italian vitla, with lovely gardens and
dancing waters just across the threshold. Except in
the case of Mr. B. J. Ford, there was not the slight-
est difference in the manner of the performers. All
of them had committed their lines to memory, and
the words tumbled out of their mouths with the con-
Tentlonsl monotony of utterance assigned to the Ghost
in " Hamlet." Every now and then the mispronuncia-
tion of a syllable — as when massacre was pronounced
massacres — would create a ripple of merriment, but
the spectators soon quieted down, and the players
were allowed to speak their ylines with as little ap-
parent concern as to their meaning as so many talk-
ing automatons might have exhibited. It
was a very droll aJDfalr, indeed, and
when an amusing mishap occurred, it
was seized upon with marvelous alacrity. The ar-
rival of the funeral procession with a coffin scarcely
large enough to contain the remains of a full-grown
cat was a welcome diversion from the ligneous
severity of the transactions, luad the
occasional obstmacy of a door which
an impatient artist would try to open
in the wrong direction was hailed with
great delight. Mr. B. J. Ford's JHehard was the
only performance which offered evidence that the
actor understood the story or the text of the trag-
edy. Mr. Ford recited his part intelligent-
ly, and accented portions of the text
by a variety of time-honored "stage-business."
He was not always impressive, but his work sug-
gested that he was less of a maunikin than his asso-
ciates, and the relief, slight as It .was, was grateful
He jerked out his words much as Mr. Backus does in
his clever imitations, and pawed the ground with
the recognized "tragedy-stamp," and emphasized
his most vigorous declarations with an equally
familiar " tragedy grunt" Mr. Booth's nervotu pat-
ting of his left hand with his right will no doubt be
remembered Mr. Ford imparted to this act far more
significance and solemnity, and the fretfulness and
ill-restrain t^ anger of the tyrant were finely expressed
by deliberate and broad movements, admirably
illtutrative of the well-considered castigation of a
refractory infant. There Is no necessity, however,
to note the mlnutis of the portrayal. If it has
taken the negro what Ernest R^nan calls centuries
of slow evolution to reach his present condition,
we fear it will require thousands of years
before the race produces a tragedian of conspicuous
ori^ality, and, recognizing this fact. last night's per-
formers will no doubt kt dawn to-day return to
humbler and more useful avocations.
GENERAL MENTION.
The concert of which the proceeds are to be
applied to the erection of a national monument In
honor of the late King V ictor Emanuel takes place
at Steinway HaB, this evening.
*• Champagne and Oyatera " was reproduced
at the Park Theatre, last evening, to the delight of a
large audience. It is to be withdrawn after to-
night's performance, however, as " Our Aldermen"
will be in readiness for production to-morrow.
The complete programme for Mr. Thomas'
Saturday's symphony concert and Thursday's re-
hearsal is as follows :
Overture, '* Midsummer Night's Dream "...Mendelssohn
Cavatlna, " Flowers of the Valley," (Kuryanthe).. Weber
Mra L. A. Osgood.
Concerto Ko. 1, in E list Liszt
Mr. Max Pinner.
Introdoction, " Tristan and Isolde" i tt-™-*-
Finale, " Isolde's Death " J **a«ner
JwUe : Mrs. E. A. Osgood.
Symphony No. 6, C minor, op. 07 Beethoven
A change of " c^st " In the performance of
" The Exiles " at the Broadway Theatre, now brings
Miss Kate Gerard before the public. This young ar-
tist has nude rapid strides in her profession since
she last appeared in this City, and her portrayal of
To^na is marked by a variety of accent and a de-
gree of emotional power — as shown particularly in
the "snow scene'* of Mr. Rowe's stirring drama —
which produce a strong impression, and are to be
considered as uncommonly promising.

that no member of the union should work for less
than $2 50 per day. went into effect yesterday. In

been receiving leas than the daily stipend mentioned
struck for an increase. The demands of most Of
them wore complied with. About 200 were given no
definite answers by their employers, and remained
idle all day. It Is expected that they will be allowed

furthest within three days.
TSE PATERSOy CHARTER ELECTIOK.
The Paterson, N. J., charter election took
place yesterday. The tickets were badly n^ed.

publican, and Crouter— Democrat, but running as an
Independent — were elected Tax Commlasioners, and
that the Board of Aldermen will stand eight Republi-
cans to eight Democrats, the same as last year. The
Passaic County Board of Freeholders will probably
stand the same as last year^lO Repnblieans and 7

TBSFTBAMID POOL TO ORNAMENT
zxtrhs for the American championship
— opekina of the contest last night
— the scores.
The grand national pool tournament at 15-
ball or pyramid pool, for the American championship
and a gold medal, with $550 in money prizes,- was
opened last night at O'Connor's Unton-Square Bil-
liard Rooms, with the following entries : Clark Wil-
son. J. M. Warble, Samuel Knight, A. P. Rndolphe,
OyriUe Dion, Joseph Dion, William Sexton. George
P. Slosson, George Prey, and Gottlieb Wahlstrom.
There were present during the eveoiug probably 400
spectators, among them being cuipy prominent men
and all the leading billiard players. The tournament
will last 10 days ; each player will have to play
■giUnst every other player. The opening game was
played between Wilson and Warble. The pUy was
by no means brilliant. Wilson played with a great
deal of ease and neatness, but seemed absolutely un-
able to master position. Warble In the first five or
six games was luckv, making several "scratches" on
**ring" balls, and played very steadily through-
out. In the seventh game Wilson "skunked"
Warble with a score of 65 to O, while
in the game preceding it, when Wilson stood
50 to Warble's I8, the latter got a good break and
swept the table. In the tenth game Wilson again
" skunked " his opponent. In the thirteenihgame
Warble repeated his nervy play of the sixth, clearing
the table when Wilson was 55 to his 21. Warble
played with either hand verv nicely. In the fifteenth
game Wilson stood at 60 points toWarble's 45. with
the 15 ball only on the table, and both men played
eagerly for it, but Wilson was finally successful,
though he forfeited once by pocketing.
The score stood as follows, the majority out of 21
games winning :
Warble— 1 OlOlllOlOlllOOl 1— Total. 11.
Wilson— OlO 10 00 10 1000 1 1 0 O— ToUl, 6.
The second game was the feature of the evening,
and was begun at 10:45 between Wahlstrom and
Rudolphe, Wahlstrom. "the Swede," as he is called,
being reputed as the finest player In the world,
though a mere boy in appearance. He won the first
fame In about four minutes bv a score of 64 to
0, and the second by 72 to 15. lii lOminutes; third,
72 to 12, in 5 minutes. In the fourth Rudolphe
skunked Wahlstrom, however, in 3 minutes, and
Wahlstrom immediately returned the complitnent
in 1 minute 48 seconds. Rudolphe won the seventh
by good playing and Wahlstroin. by rapid plays
all over ' the table, made 68 straight after
Rudolphe bad picked up 35. The distinguish-
ing features of the Swede's play, are his per-
fect composure, and his bold, rapid play, avoiding all
"8%fety' shots and going In to win. In the thir-
teenth game there whs some looso calk among the
" sports" about bettine. and Wahlstrom becoming
involved in it lost his self-possession, and with it the
game. In the fifteenth game Rudolphe hnld a
"mark" and 59 "good." and so was awarded the
game, the remaining balls not counting enough to let
the Swede out The game closed at 12:30 o'clock.
The score stood as follows :

length of the yacht on deck aft. irrespective of the
rail; that the measurer be directed to file with tho
Corresponding Secretary as soon aa practicable the
new measurement of the yachts of the club."
No date for the sailing of the catamaran race or
the regatta for open boats was fixed.
The Williamsburg Yacht Club held a special meet-
ing last evening for the pnrpose of taking action in
regard to the payment of the p- Izes of the last year's

A LETTER FROM GEORGE C. GORBAM,
WHAT HE SAID AT THE MEETING OP THE
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE —
THE ISSUES IN THE APPBOACHINO CAM-
PAIGN CLEARLY EXPLAINED— REPUBLIC-
AN- ENTHUSIASM MUST BE AROUSED —
PARTY PRINCIPLES TO BE AFFIRMED —
THE PRESIDENT'S POLICY NOT TO BE
DISAVOWED IN TERMS.
Mr. George C. Gorham has published a letter
IKilnting out and correcting certain inaccuracies in
the Tribune's Washington dispatches, which pur-
ported to give an account of the proceedings of the
Republican National and Congressional Committee-
men at their meeting on Thursday evening last.
Mr. Grorham was represented as having "made a
remarkably bitter speech against the Presiaent and
his Administration," and in view of the fact that a
new Honse of Representatives is to be chosen in a
few months, he wishes to make known the porition
he took at the meeting in question. He savs : "1
expressly stated it to be my opinion that it would
be better to affirm Republican doctrines and de-
notmce crimes of the enemy than it would to arraign
the Administration for any acts committed or omit-
ted I did not even propose that the party should
in terms disavow the course of the Administration
toward Louisiana and South Carolina; bnt that we
ought to affirm the righteousness and constitution-
ality of the reconstruction policy of the party, and to
insist that its failure was due to the defiance of law
by Southern Democrats, and not to the wickedness
of Southern Republicans ; ^that those who had sus-
tained the laws were better and worthier political
associates than those who had rebelled against and
trampled them under foot." Mr. Gorham then in-
quires pertinently: "Was this 'bitter and ex-
treme?'" He then reviews the political campaigns
of 1872 and 1876. and the Presidential count of
1876-7, and continues: "Is it 'warring upon the
President ' to say that the laws should oe obeyed,
and that to deny a citizen his lawful right to vote
is a crime against our system of government? Is
it 'bitter' to say the truth— that this rule' is
uniformly reversed in the lately rebellious
States, and that a Pole in Russia, an Alsati&n In
Germany, or a Fenian in England, may more freely
and safely utter his sentiments than can a true Re-
publican in the Southern States of free America !
Is it ' extreme ' to contend that the obligation to
furnish protection to a State Government against in-
surrection, when constitutionally called upon, is
imposed upon the Presilent by the ConstitAtion,
which forbids him to leave undecided which' is the
Government and which the insurrection, and also
forbids him to leave the State and the inxurrection
■to fight it out between themseU'Os f Is It 'open-
ing anew old controversies ' to declare that Demo-
cratic hopes of national control are based upon law.
breaking as a policy, and that nine Southern States
now held in chains by the Democratic Party would
be Republican if legal voters were allowed to vote i
May not Republicans arouse the North to these
things without antagonizing the Administration ?"
Mr. Gorham then asserts that the campait^n this
Summer " most be so carried on as to arouse the old
enthusiasm of Republicans. Asforthetew r'crults
who may have followed Schurz and Key and Evarts
from the Liberal, Confederate, and the Johnson
camps, tbey are sure to rally, for they are near the
commissary stores. But, as I remarked at the late
meeting, " it is Important that some effort should be
made to catch the Republican vote."' The party was
not organized to distribute clerkships : that will be
left to the self-styled " reformers," who have agreed
to vote the Republican ticket in consideration of
the patronage. Mr. Gorham says it is a trade ot their
own proposing. His letier concludes as follows :
" But the Republican Partv has higher interests in
charce— to estalilish freedom where slavery was; to
dissipate ignorance by education : to insure equal
riirhts among mtn. and to base our Government on
' the consent of the governed' expressed at the bal-
lot-box. and not on the bayonet rule of While Ijeairue
military clubs. These are objects for which the Ke-
publiean masses can be rallied. If these are indeed
dangerous themes in a Republican meeting, let ns tiear
nomore of the Republican Party. If. on tJie other hand,
they are worthy of further stniggU-s. let us liear no
miserable cant of the impolicy of oSFending bv their
utterance. Who are we a f mid of offending? la it
the Greeleyites. whom we have forgiven for their
trtsachery and for their dtrfamatum of us in 1S72 f
Lei us be frank and tell them that our forgiveness Is
not to be construed into an apology for having re-
fumed to desert with them.
" This Administration will only be regarded as Re-
publican, in my judement. upon the understHiidiug
that the presence of Mr. Evarts in the Cabinet is not
an indorsement of the policy of Andrew .lolinsoii ;
that Gen. -Devens was not appointed Attorney-Gen-
eral because there was any special merit in his hov-
ing been the Democratic candidate for Governor of
Massachusetts againsr John A. Andrew in
1802; that Mr. Key is a monument of
Yankee forbearance ni.d not 'a burnin' and
a shinin' light for a' this place;' that Curl
Schurz is a pardoned (if not repentant) prodigal,
and not the token of Presidential vindication of the
Infamous mud campaign of l!i72': and upon the
further understanding that our party cannot offend
the President by demanding, in its platform, obedi-
ence to the Constitusiou and tlie laws, nr by de-
nouncing the crimes of the Democratic Party in or-
ganizing violent resistance to both. If mv view
is wrong — if there is to be a milk diet — then f much
fear that babes only will seek nourishment from It.
If the fear of Southern claims is the only objection to
Democratic rule, let those fiiiht against that rule who
ciui be stirred only by the fear of having their pock-
ets disturbed. If the present wholesale disfranchis**-
ment of our party in a dozen States is not worthy of
a passing comment, then the party is in the dry rot,
and cumbers the ground. Th'>se who want sympa-
thy when they are threatened with robbery will have
to work uporslmulatea little sympathy with the sur-
vivors of those who have been murdered, and
with the dumb three-qaners of a million RepubliriiM
voters, whose enforced surrender of pohtical rights
to the murderers has produced the peare sometimes
mistakenly attributed to President Hayes' goncilia-
tion policy. The men who get sentimental over the
murder question and the total suhjutr.ntion of .'South-
em Republicanism may be foolish and impractical,
but they have votes and must be conciliated, if only
to help defeat the Southern claims, vou Know.
We must gain 14 Northern Concessional districts
in order to gain one majority in the next House of
Rcnres ntatives, and h Democratic Clerk makes the
roll by which that House is to orjpiuize. If the
priests and Levltes would now save theirpockets from
the depredations of the awful Southern claimant,
they must conciliate the good Samaritans, by joining
them in denunciations of the thieves of Jericho. If
tnev cannot do this, it may be concluded that they
are not unfriendly to the thieves, in which case the
latter have copartnership rights which may not be
lightly interfered with.
These may be •' bitter and extreme " views, but
thev are very firmly entertained by a class danger-
ously numerous, callod radical, one of the least of
which number is. Very respectfully vours.

TRAITS OF FEMALE CHARACTER,
THE *' WOUNDED HEROINE" AS THE GUEST OP
JUSTICE DUFFY— THE PRANKS OP A COL-
ORED AMAZON.
Mattie Morgan, alias Signora Murlo, alias
"The Wounded Heroine." was arraigned yesterday
before Justice Duflfy. at the Jefferson Market Police
Court, on a charge of disorderly conduct, and sent to
Blackwell's Island for 30 days. Mattie Morgan has
been one of the most successful female " dead beats"
in the City. She Is about 40 years of age. of pleas-
ing appearance and persuasive speech, and pretends
to be acquainted with many prominent persons.
Her ordinary plan of operations has been to visit
some fashionable boardlng-bouse. Inquire for some
prominent but absent guest, for whom she would
always wait, and upon whose account she would
take entertainment. Some three weeks ago Mattto
applied to Justice Kilbreth, in the Jefferson Market
Police Court, for a warrant in some case in which
Justice Duffy had taken action. Justice Kilbreth
referred ber to Jtistlce Duffy, and told her
that be boarded at the Stevens Honse. The woman
went there and inquired for the Justice. She was
told be was out just then but would no doubt soon
be in. She was shown into the ladies' parlor, and
soon the diuner-gong sounded. Mattie went to the
diuing-room and ate a sumptuous meal, after which
the waiter placed alongside her plate a check for
$1 50, representing the amount of food she bad con-
sumed. She sent for the elerk and told him that
being Justice Duffy's guest she feared she would
give his Honor offense by paying for the meal
"Oil,'' said the polite young man, "we wouldn't
think of requesting it of you. The check, mad-
am, I assure you, was a mere formality."
He then left, and charged Justice Duffy $1 50 for
the woman's meal. Then Mattie went into the bar-
ber shop and had her face washed and powdered and
her hair elegantly done up into curls, " in order to
be presentable to her old friend. Judge Duffy." The
barber's bill was $2, and the hotel clerk would not
allow the lady to paj tnat cither, although she in-
sisted on doing so, but had it also charced to Justice
Duffy. Some minutes ■ afterward when Justice
Duffy reached the hotel. Mattie Morgan had disap-
peared. The woman wherever she is known is con-
sidered an unmitigated nuisance ; where she is not,
she is dangerous. Justice Duffy pronounces her in-
sane.
Annie Clark, a colored amazon. of No. 56 Thomp-
son-street, was arrested on Sunday night for intoxi-
cation by Officer Henze, of the Eighth Precinct. She
made such a violent resistance that seven policemen
had to assist Henze before she could be got to the
station-hotue. There she threw a heavy stoneware
spittoon at Capt. McDonnell, but it fortuuately
missed him. It fell against a wall, breaking into pieces,
one of which struck Sergt. Reilly an the E^ad. woar^
ihg him severely. . When taken to the Jeffervon
Harkat f odcp Court yesterday momiuz. she snatched
a hammer frbm a passing enpsnter sad dealt Hensa
a violent hlow on the head with it. Jostles Dofty
sent her to tha Island for six months.
Mr*. Lena Miller, of Newark, who told an incredi-
ble story about bavins been chased by three men,
who. when they overtook her, threw poison into her
mouth. Is still dnoireronsly ill at her home. She ad-
mits that she administered the poison herself, and
says she was impelled to the attempt of self-destroe-
tioa by the brutal treatment of her husband.
LOSSES BT FIRE,
A fire broke out about 11 o'clock last night
in the engine-room of Nos. 87 and 89 Elizabeth-
street. The building runs back to within three feet
of the rear of the large and crowded tenements Nos.
136, 138, and 140 Mott-etreet. The boiler-room
and engine:! belonged to Johnson Brothers, of No.
210 Grand-street, the lessees of the building, which
is otherwise occupied by Corey & Leipzig, picture-
splint manufacturers, on the first floor and part of
the third : Furchtenicht & Triilich. vinegar-makers,
on the second: W, W. Houchin, model-maker,
and M, Erlondsen, piano-makers' tools, on the
foprth. and F. Sehmid, carver, on the flfttu
When the firemen reached the place the tlamea had
gained cont^iderable headway, and great difficulty was
experienced in throwing water upon them. A second
alarm was soanded. which brousht to the scene a
large number of engines, and Chief Engineer Bate
and Fire Commissioners Kine and Gorman. After a
hard strusgle, the flames were confined to the base-
ment and first siory of the building in which they
started ; but it took a full hour to subdue them. The
loss will be about $5,000.
A fire in Forsyth, Ga., last Sunday night,
destroyed the only remaining hotel and three store-
houses. The telt'craph office was burned, bnt Is now
reopened. Losses Kjigrecate $13,000; insurance
abo ut $4,000. The oricin of the fire was accidentaL

Practical Wisdom.
An ancient adage says. " In time of peace prepare
for war.'' Is it not equally wise to prepare for sick-
ness in time of health? When anticipating a jour-
ney, guide-books and maps.are studiously examined,
and all possible information of the route and country
obtained. Yet many make the " journey of life,"
and throughout the entire trip remain almost
strangers to themselves, in profound ^norance of
tneir abilities, and have no knowledge of the phj-si-
ological laws that govern mind and matter. To such
life is like a boy handling an engine, he may have as-
cfrtained how to start and stop it. bnt he knows not
how to keep it in running order. The Peoplk'8 Com-
mon Sense Medical Adviser, an illustrated work
of overyOO pages, is designed by its author aa a
popular hand-book of anatomy, physiologj-, hygiene,
medicine, and the most gommon diseases to which
ail are liable, and with which many are affil^ted.

tions. Price. $1 50. Address the author. R. T.

Ex-Oov. FrftXiUln J. Moses, Jr.. 'who was
jrmted on a rttquisltlon from Got. Hampton, of
Sonth GaroUna, on Stmday evening, remained in
eoitody at the PoUea Central Office yesterday. He
waa not locked in a cell darine the dajr. bnt was per-
mitted to oocupy the baec room of the Detective
Office, where he received a large nnmber of frlepds.
Superintendent WaUhig and Se^^t* Kealej were
pestered all day by persons who wanted to see
the ex-Govemor SMreiy oat of curiosity, but
only those he was destroos of seeing were allowed to
enter. Several reoortera called early In the day, to
ascertain whether Mr. Moses desired to make a st ate-
meot bnt he declined to talk with them in reference
to the ebar^ upon which he had been arrested. His
counsel, Col. Charles S. Spencer, called during the
momtnf and had a protracted interview with the
prisoner. Mr. Spwieer then called on Superinten-
dent 'Wallixig and desired to be informed what steps
he intended to take. Mr. WalUng said that he had
not seen the Sheriff of Charleston or any person
represtintiog him. and as thA law required thnt all
prisoners moat be sent to court immedlatelv after
their arreat, ar as soon thereafter as the court
opened, ho would send an officer with Mr. Moses to
one of the Police courts and ssk to have the prisoner
remanded nntil the arrival of the Sheriff with the
Governor's requisition. Col. Spencer, on behalf of
his client, waived the right of being taken before a
Police magistrate-
Subsequently CoL Spencer obtained from Judge
.Donohue, sitting in Knoreme Coort. Cbambers. a
writ of habeas corpus, returnable at 1 1 A. M. to-day,
for ihe pnrpose of inqairing into the legality of the
prisoner's detention. In the petition it is said that
"tha cause of such detention ix a requisition pur-
Twrting to be from his Excellency "Wade Hampton,
Governor of the State of South Carolina, upon the
Governor of the State of New-York for the body of
said Moses, charged with forgery ; that no warrant
from the Governor of New-Tork accompanies said
requisition, and thut the alleged forgery is that of a
name upon an asorious and void promissory note."
Col. Spencer also sent the followine dispatch to Gov.
Robicson: " In the matter of Gov. Moses: la alleged
forgery of a name upon nsprious and void promis-
sory note a crime ? Is any pecuniary obligation
thereby incurred T* The writ was served on Super-
intendent Wallijgat 1 o'clock.
At 3 P. M. Sheriff Bowen. of Charleston, and John
S. Connor, the Special Constable to whom the re-
quisitioQ bad been orisinally issued by Gov. Hamp-
ton, arrived at the Police Central Office. Mr. Bowen
denied that he had come to New- York especially on
this basiness, but said the case was in the hands
of Connor, who had been detailed as a
Constable and as the "agent" of the State to execute
(hm warrant. Connor said that he had been In this
City for nearly three weeks, looldng for Moses, and
had employed private detectives to "shsdow" him.
It was not intended to arrest him nntil the pa-
pers bad been perfected and the warrant for his rendi-
tion obtained from Gov. Robinson, but the detectives
saw bim on Broadway on Sanday, and fearing that
he would escape they deemed it best to arrest him
and place him in charge of the Police. When asked
why he had not come to the Central Office promptly
vesterday morning, Connor said that he "supposed
U didn't matter for two or three days" He
was then Informed of the issue of the
writ of habeas conms, and told that if he
deeired to take the prisoner to South Carolina
it would be necessary for him to obtnin the Gover-
nor's warrant as Quickly as posnible. or Moses would
be discharged. Connor then said that he would go
to Albany at once and present his papers to Gov.
Robinson, and make formal application for a war-
rant of extradition. The officer left this City on the
6 P. M. train.
Mr. Moses said yesterday that he had been In this
City three weeks, livine without concealment, and
he had intendea to return to Charleston daring the
.•nrftsent week.
FIVE FOOLISH TOUXG MEN,
THE STRANGE LOSS OP 96 ERIE RAILWAY
GOLD COUPONS — THE PROPERTY TRACED
^ TO FIVE YOUNG MEN, WHO ASSERT THAT
THEY FOUND IT — THEIR VERSION OP THE
STORY— THE PRISON*ERS COMMITTED FOR
EXAMINATION.
Capt. Caffrey, of the First Precinct Police,
brouzht to the Tombs Police Court, yesterday, five
young and well-dressed prisoners, named, respect-
ively. Charles Creevey, of No. SlTig Fifth-street
Jersey City, an employe of a William-street gold
broker ; Eugene Kern, of No. 87 Johnson-street,
Brooklyn, a real estate and loan broker; Frank
Grant, of No. 240 Cumberland-street, Brooklyn ;
Charles H. Porter, of No^ 77 Fort Green-place,
Brooklyn, and Frederick Cornell, of Na 57 Sonth
Oxford-street, Brooklyn, a clerk in the office of the
Bajikert' Magazine, at No. 251 Broadway. They
had all been arrested for alleged complicity in the
robbery of $3,360 worth of Erie Railway gold
coupons belonging to Messrs. Morton, Bliss & Co.,
of No. 3 Broad-street. Fotlr of the prisoners were
hroizght to the Tombs on Sunday, but were remand-
ed without examination, owing to the fact that Cor-
nell was yet at large. He was captured on Sunday.
The history of the larceny is rather Interesting. It
apnears that on March 11. Frank Foster, a clerk and
messenger, was sent to the Post Office Buildtns to
eoUect the mail for the firm, and received four pack-
ages containing, besides the coapoua. United
States bonds to the amount of $100,000,
which had been sent over for redemption
"by Encliah bondholders. Only three of the pack-
ages were delivered, the other having been either
lost by ( r stolen from the messenger. The case was
nut into the hands of Private Detective Davis, but
nothing was heard of the coupons agam until Satur-
day last, when some of them were offered at the
office for redemption. The cine thus furnished was
xapidly followed up, and resulted in the arreit of
the piisoners by Detective Davis and Capt. Caffrey.
Capt. Caffrey, upon qnestloning them, srathered
the following story, .which he ael forth in a long aflS-
davit before Justice Murray yesterday. Creevey
stated that he found the package of coupons at the
comer of Cortlaudt and Greenwich streets on Fri-
day, March 22, and kept them two days to see
whether any advertisement of their loss would ap-
pear in any of the newspapers. He then sent two of
them to the Erie office for payment by a boy whom
he met on the street. Upon offering them to the
Cashier the latter eave the boy a memomndum, and
told him to call for payment on the following day.
The next day he sent another boy to the office with
the memorandum, and waited on the comer of Pul-
ton and Nassau streets for the boy's return. He saw
the boy coming back, but thinkine that some one
■was following him. fled. On the day following he
gave the remainder of the coupons to Grant to keep
them nntil a reward for their return should be of-
fered. Grant sent a district messenger boy to get
two coupons cashed at the company's office, bnt re-
ceived a reply that the company refused payment.
He then, su he said, went to Creevey's office, in Wil-
liain-street. and told him he did not wish to have
•nything more to do with the coupons. The latter
then declared that he would give him $1,000
if he wonla get rid of them, and there-
npon gave him 85 of them to dispose
or. Of those he gave 15 to Cornell, and
23 to Porter, who said he could get tnat number
cashed by a friend. Porter declared that he imve
Them to Kern, and that he had not seen them since.
Kern said that he received the 23 from Porter, who
stated that he had bought them on speculation and
wanted them cashed for a commission. He went to
the office to get them cashed, when he was arrested
by private Detective Davis, having In his possession
ft document authorizing -him to sell the coupons,
which the company kept. Porter further stated
that Grant met him in the street and told him a
friend of his had a lot of coupons which he wished
to have cashed. He received them and gave them to
Kern. Cornell went with Cspt. Caffrey yesterday to his
(Comell'sJ office, and, unlocking his drawer, took
out 10 of the coupons apd gave them to the Captain.
He said that he had eaahcd one for $35 at the Erie
office.
The Captain's affidavit was supplemented with
those of George S. Bowdoto, of the firm of Morton.
Bliss & Co.. Detective Davis, the messenger, Foster,
and Frank Van Tasaell. Paying Teller of the Erie
Railway office. Tbe latter testified that Kern had
Rpplied for the pajrment of 23 coupons In a check
payable to Charles H. Porter. Bowdoin swore to
particulars of the case upon information, and the
messenger. Foster, testified that he did not know
whether he lost or was robbed of the coupon pack-
Bce- Detective Davis testified to the arrest of
Creerrey and Grant, and to the fact that the latter
stated that th« coupons were found In the Post Office
inclosed in an envelope addressed to Morton, Bliss
& Co.
Judge Shipmau, repreeentlng the prosecution, con-
sented to an adjournment, and the case was setdown
for examination Monday noon. Creevey was nut
nnder $5 000 bail, and the others under $1,000
each. Cornell, who Is the son of wealthy parents,
was admitted to bail, his father fnmlshine his seeu-
rltv Tne others were locked up in the Tombs.
Justice Murray said yesterday that the prisoners
eotOd be held for larceny even if they fonsd the
coupons as they assert, as it was their business to
return them to the company. Cornell claims that be
put an advertisement in the paners of the fact of the
«>npons being found, but received no reply, and
\hMX then only did he offer any for payment.

THE ORDER CONCERNING WEST BOUND
ntEIGHTS SUSPENDED— AN EXPLANATION
BY COMMISSIONER TINK.
* The order made by the EzecatlTe Committee
of the Trunk Lino Managers, whieh was pub-
lished In The Times on Sunday, has been received
with BO much opposition from shippers that the
idea of enforcing it has been abandoned, at
least for the present Merchants who read
the eirenlar understood It to mean that
the tmnJc lines were endeavoring to compel every
shipper to pay an extra rate for all articles shipped,
or else agree not to make any demaad for damastes in
case the goods should be destroyed in transit. It
was seen that all shippers, except perhaps leather
dealers, whose goods would not be liable to sustain
damage as readily as some others, would be equally
affected by tbe change, and that the irritation wouJd
increase rather than diminish in time. While mer-
chants were annoyed by the notice they did not be-
lieve that the railroads could, by adopting such a
plan as this, escape liability nnder the law. On
Saturday, having heard from several agents that the
new order was severely condemned by shippers, Com-
missioner ±'^Dk issued tl^e following order :
No. 346 Broadway, \
Netw-York. AprU 6. 1878, i
/Circular No. 14.)
Inqutiles havlnc been made as to the meaning of
the terms "owner s risk" and "carrier's risk," In the
contemplated chanee of clasKifyins all articles now
taken at owner's risk one class hi;;her than when
taken at carrier's risk, the following explanation is
given:
. At present the bill of ladini; provides certain arti-
cles of a frail and brittle nature, and other articles
subject to injury in the ordinary course of transpor-
tation without negligence on the part of the carrier,
are only to be taken at owner's risk unless specially
agreed in writing to the rontr>ry. The proposed
chanj^e merely contemplates determining at once and
notifying the shippers of the rates that are to be
chaTged in case the carrier assumes the particular
risks above referred to, instead of leaving that ques-
tion an open one to be made the subj«'ct of a special
agreement in writing in each particular case.
The eiiipper is to select whether he wishes to
ship at owner's risk, with reduced rates, or at car-
rier's risk at a higher rate.
There is no intention to exempt the carrier from
any liability or risks due to his own carelessness, but
as the lat ter idea seems to be entertained by ship-
pers, it is proposed not to make any change at
present, and until the subject is more generally and
better understood by those interested. Uespectfally
yours. ALBERT FINK.
Commissioner Fink said th.it the misapprehension
about, the pnrpose of the order was general and that
it was a great mistake to suppose there was any in-
tention on the part of the trunk line managers to
escape recponsibility or extort a profit by trick. It
was a plan for the convenience of shippers rather
than anything else, but as there seemed to be some
donbtastothe meanlntr of the order, he said the
committee had decided to allow the schedule to re-
main as it is, and not to make a change on the 15th.

lUE SIKKIXG FVSD COMMISSION.
The Commissioners of the Sinking Fund met
yesterday in the Mayor's office. A communication
was received from the Corporation Counsel statini;
that the claim of the estate of the late Mr. Cortland
Palmer, amannting to $3,000. for appraising proper-
ty owned by the City in 1873, was not, accordiDg to
the facts presented to him, a valid one. The Con-
troller then offered a resolution, which was adopted,
declariz^e that there was no appropriation out of
whieh the bill could be paid.
Another communication was received tzom the
Corporation Counsel in regard to a petition from Mr.
E. M. Harrison, praying the board to surrender to
him the City's interest in certain lands nnder water,
situate at the foot of Duane-street. It appears that
the lands in question were sold in the year 1828 for
assesments to one James Kay for a period of 500 years,
and that Mr. Hfirrisnn subsecjuently came into pos-
8et>Bibn of them. The Corporation Counsel, after ad-
verting to the facts in the case, says that the City's
reversionary interest in the nroperty must be offered
at public auction. A resolatioa was adopted in ac-
cordance with this opinion.
The board then authorized the Controller to issue
dock bonds to the amount of $50,000, in compliance
with a requisition from the Dock Department, and
also to sell the franchise of the ferry from James'-
slip to Hunter's Point. Ijonc Island, to the highest
bidder, for a term not exceeding- five years. The
Controller was further directed to lease for a term
of two years a number of unoccupied lots and other
City property. A communication was received from
the Police Department stating that the building in
Franklin-street formerly used as a station-house
was greatly ont of repair, and therefore nn&t for use.'
The board then adjourned.
PIGEON SHOOTJXG AT DEERFOOT PARK.
After the failure of Capt. A- H. Bosrardus to
kill 85 out of 100 pigeons — 50 pairs — at the Brook-
lyn Driving Park, formerly Deerfoot Park, on March
22 last, a Mr. Haggerty laid a wager of $250 a side,
with Mr. Ira A. Paine, that the latter could not kill
75 ont of 100 birds npon the same conditions. The
challenge was accepted, andyesterday was theday de-
cided upon for the contest. The birds were all of Long
Island breed, and were extremely tough and wiry.
Mr. Paine used a Parker gun. No. 12, weighing 7
pounds 2 ounces, with m ounces of No. 8 Taiham
chilled shot, and a charce of 3^4 drams of Curtis
& Harvey powder. The rise was 21 yards, and the
boundaries 100 jards. The weather was fair, and
with the suii at his back, tlie rifleman had a favora-
ble breeze from the north-west quarter. The judges
were Walter B. Ireland for Mr. Paine, and

THE BROOKLYN COMMON COUNCIL.
A TETO FROM MATOR HOWELL— THE LATE
ALDERMAN SHANNON'S FUNERAL — A
GOOD SUGGESTION FROM GEN. JOUBDAN.
At a meeting of the Brooklyn Common Coun-
cil yesterday, a communication was received from
Mayor Howell vetoing a resolution passed at the pre-
vious meeting prohibiting an electioQ In the Fifth
Ward to fill the vacancy caused by the death of
Alderman Shannon, and providing that the deceased
Alderman's widow receive the salary which th.6 late
Mr. Shannon would havedrawn had he lived until the
expiration of the term for which he was elected. Tbe
Mayor holds that the resolution li directly in confilet
with the city charter, and that ho should be guilty of
a crime did he approve it. The action of the board
in striving, by resolution, to prohibit an election to fill
Alderman Shannon's place he denounces as nn-
Amerlcan. and an unmanly outrage at a time when
the Common Council is so equally divided' by party
linos. The veto was ordered on file. The bill for ex-
penses Incurred by the city in connection with
Alderman Shannon's funeral, presented by
tbe Finance Committee, contained the following
items : For draping the late Alderman's chair and
desk, $10; for floral cross and carrying the same to
tbe cemetery, $85; for printing, telegraphing, pos-
tage stamps, &c., $23 50 ; for the use rf 38 coaches,
$164; for 111 pairs of black kid gloves, at $1 75 a
pair. $194 25; for crape, $21 75; total, $398 50.
The bill as reported by the Finance Committee was
ordered to ■ be paid without discussion. Assessors
Smith and Breen were confirmed as their own suc-
cessors in the Board of Assessors. Mr. Charles
Teale was confirmed as a member of the Board of
Education in place of ex-Mayor Booth, who refused
to accept the position. A resolntion was adopted re-
questing the Union Ferry Company to re-establish
the Bridge-Street Ferry.
In the early part of the year a letter was received
from Gen.'Jamea Jonrdan, Presideut of the Depart-
ment of Police and Excise, requesting the board to
fix the salary of Police officers other than detectives,
doing detailed duty, nt $950. 3Iany active young
men possessing political inlluence are now doing light
duty on the Board of Health and in the courts who. if
their salary were reduced from $1, 100 to$S50, would
go on active duty to obtain the higher salary.
Their places could be filled by men who have be-
come ertfaer o^d or disabled in the service of
the public, and whom It would be unjust to
place on tbe retired list at a salary not sufSclent
to support their families. Gen. Jourdan states that
should the Police Commissioners exercise theirri»eht to
compel the young men doing light detailed dn?- to
go on patrol it would lead to a conflict with the .. .uls
of other departments, who are frequently the riiuuds
of the detailed men. which wnuid seriously Inter-
fere with the irood government of the City.
The leiter was referred to the Committeoon Law,
where it was allowed to slumber until yesterday,
when Alderman Baird moved that the Law Commit-
tee be discharged from the further consideration of
tne matter, and that It be referred to
the Committee on Police and Excise,
with . instructions to report on Monday.
The special committee to whom was referred a reso-
lntion relative to tbe use of steam on Atlantic-avenue
south of Flatbush reported that ihey could not agree
on a plan, and were discharged from the further
consideration of the matter. Alderman Burnett of-
fered a resolution permitting the building of a de-
presRed rosd on Atlantic-avenue west .of Flatbush-
avenue to South Ferry. The resolntion was made
the special order for the next meeting.
THE MAGENTA DISASTER.
The Coroner's inquest in the case of the
Magenta explosion was continued at Sing Sing yes-
terday. James H. Stevens, a boiler-maker, in the
employ of Fletcher. Harrison & Co.. testified that
the boilers and steam chimneys of the Magenta
were put In at their works ; no test was made with
a hammer; the chimney was merely looked over;
witness admitted that it was partly decayed ; a por-
tion of the old lining was cut oat and new pnt in ;
a patr-b was put on the same sheet that was blown
ont. about two feet from the rupture. Witness
thou^rht that in many cases boilers' ivere not thor-
ouichly in.^pected by the Government oflScers, for
want of time. Andrew Fletcher, of Fletcher,
Harrison, & Co.. testified that new boilers were pnt
in the Magenta in the Spring of 1 873, and repairs
were made in May. 1877 : ho considered it an error
of judgment that the w^m condition of the steam
chimney was not discovered, and tbotieht yearly in-
spections were insuJlicient ; if the Government In-
spectors had .examined the Magenta this Spring.
just before she beean running, the defect, in wit-
ness' opinion, would have been discovered. Francis
Wilaey, Superintending Engineer of the Stevens &
Condlt Transportation Company, and Tnomns W.
Dawson, President of the same, testified regarding
tne repairs made on the Magenta, bnt no new facts
of importance were elicited from them.

catalogue of incurable diseases, and now reaWy
snocombsto the shUlf nl and sdentlfie treatment of
Dr. LighthlU, of thU City. Among educated physl-
dims he was tbe first in this or any other eonntry to
devote sneeial attrition to tbe stndyand inrestiffa-
tlon of catarrh and deafness, and the happy revolts
which have 'attended his labors have b«en attested
by hondreds of gratefnl patients. Indeed, it apnears
he has often effected radical and permanent cnres In
eases that had been abandoned as hopeless and eon*
signed to a premature death or a lifetime of snffer-
ing.
In his examinations and treatment Dr. lilshthill
makes nse of an improved and peenliarlr eonstraeted
laryngoscope, by which every portion of the affected
organs, ordinarily hidden from view, is dearly re-
vealed. so that tbe sliKhtest abnormal condition can
be distinctly seen and readily recognized. His • ap-
pliances for the introdnction of remedial agents are
of an equally perfect character, and, like all his ar*
rangements, are marvels of in£enaity, and pre-emi*
nently adapted to the purjwse for which they are in-
tended. By their instrumentality appropriate medi-
caments, whether In the shape of liquids, sprays, pow-
ders, vapors, or gases, can be conveyed to the exact
location of the disease with unerring predsios, and
in the most thorough and effective manner, affording
immediate relief without producing the least un-
pleasant sensation.
Dr. Lighthili'ji reputation is based on the skill and
experience acquired in twenty-five years of constant
and arduous practice and on professional success of
which any physician may be jnstlypiond. In calling
attention to the long array of testimonials of cures
published below, from some of our leading dtixens,
we feel that Dr. Xiighthill deserves unqualified praise
for his earnest endeavors to reduce his special branch
of medldne to an exact science in order to relieve

been done^eretofore.

For several years I was afflicted with a severe form
of eatarrfa. and to such an extent that my hearing
became impaired, and I wat constantly troubled with
roaring sounds in my bead. It also gave rise to a
troablesome cough, bronchial irntation. and pain in
my Innfiv. In fact, my condition was snch that I telt
convinced, unlets something was done for my relief,
I would BOon be beyond cure. One physician thoneht
that eventnally I would be stone deaf: another gave
xne hii opinion that catarrh could not be coreo, and
that I had to endure as best I could its pernicious
consequences. Finding the treatment pursued of no
benefit, I placed myself nnder the professional care
of Dr. Lightbill. of No. 6 West 29th-Rt., whose
Bumeroos indorsemenu for skill and inecess from
well-known residents of New-York Ciiy had been
brought under my notice. The result of his treat-
ment has been most beneficial. My hearing is per-
fect, the noises In tbe bead bave ceased, the nain in
ray chest has disappeared, the bronchial trouble is
gone, and I feel that I am substantially relieved of
what thTeat«ned to be a most serioas. if not fatal,
dtsense. I therefore cheorfully commend Dr. Lleht-
bill for his ability and skill, and feel confident that
any similarly afflicted will be. benefited by placing
themselves nnder his care. His treatment eives
neither pain nor distress, and can readily be borne
by the most nervous person.

"Washington, April 9.— The debate on
the Paeifie BaUroad Sinking Fund bill was
oonelnded in the Senate to-dar, and the act
reported from the Jadieiary Committee passed
by a vote of 40 to 19. This result, which is,
of coarse, generally resrarded as a signal defeat
of Jay Gould & Co., ■was due in a very great
measure to the untirinsr e: ergy and persis-
tency of purpose with which the bill was
■ advocated by Senators Tharman and Edmunds.
The debate was opened by the latter gentleman,
who spoke at length and with much force in fa-
vor of the bill and against the amendment of-
fered to it by Mr. Blaine. At the conclusion of
his speech he plainly intimated that the inten-
tion of the amendment in question was simply
to kill the bin, and he advised all those who fa-
vored the measure as it came from the Judi-
ciary Committee to vote against it, should the
amendment carry. This had the effect
of indacing Blaine to considerably mod-
ify his proposition, at the same
time, however, so tying the hands of
Congress that it would be impossible in the fu-
ture for the Government to exercise any con-
trol over the roads. Of course, this was ob-
jected to by the friends of the bill. Sir. Voor-
hees favored it, however, and wasted a great
deal of time and much studied eloquence in ita
support. After further casual but unimportant
discussion. Senator Patterson, at 5:30 P. M.,
iried to secure an adjournment. Mr. Thurman
objected, however, and asked the Senate
to sit out the debate and act on
rhe bill without further delay. The yeas
md nays were called for on the motion,
and it was lost by a vote of 20 to 36. Consid-
erable rambling discussion followed,, and
then Senator Thurman rose to close
the debate. He had hardly done so.
however, when Mr. Ferry interrupted
him to make a suggestion. This he concluded
by a second motion to adjourn. Mr. Thurman,
however, indignantly declared that he had
yielded the floor for no snch purpose, and the
motion had to be withdrawn. Senator Thur-
man then went on making a short but vigorous
and effective argument against the amendment
and in favor of the biU. Shortly afterward the
yeas and nays on the amendment were called,
and it was lost.
Daring the day there was considerable com-
ment upon the fact that Senator Conkling was
not in his place. Fending the roll-call, how-
ever, bis absenee was explained by Senator
Cameron, who stated that he was paired with
the Senator from New- York, who, if he was
present, would vote for the bilL It was also
announced that Senator Cameron, of Wiscon-
sin, was paired with Senator McMillan, Senator
Chaffee with Senator Morrill, Senator Hoar
with Senator Dawes, Senator Eastis with Sena-
tor Hamlin, Senator Hania with Senator Dor-
sey, and Senator Howe with Senator Jones, of
Nevada. After the defeat of the amendment,
which was secured by a mtieh larger vote than
had been expected, the bill was read a third
time and passed by a vote of 40 to 19.
When tne result was announced, Messrs.
rhormsn and Edmonds were warmly congrat-
ulated on their victory, and after voting to take
dp the bill to repeal the Bankrupt law to-mor-
row, the Senate adjonmed. No doubts are en-
tertained about the passage of the bill by the
Hooae, and the action of the Committee on Pa-
;ifle Bailroads to-day insures its being brought
ap for consideration at an early day. It was
introdnoed in the House last week by
Ur. Chalmers, of Mississippi, and was
referred to the Committee on Pacific
Bailroads. To-day It was called up by Mr. Chal-
oiers, and a motion to postpone, in order to
;ive the Pacific railroad people an opportunity
M be heard, was defeated by a tie vote, Mr.
Rice, of Massachusetts, being absent. Mr.
3ewitt then moved that the bill be reported fa-
rorably, and this motion was agreed to. The
Committee on Pacific Bailroads is the next
r#minlctee to be called for reports, and there Is,
therefore, a fair prospect that the bin will be
reported this week. To-night it Is currently .
reported In usually well-informed railroad circles
that the Gould men will not attempt to stop the
passage of the bill in the Hotise, bat that they
will try to escape observance of its provisions
by the old trick of protracted litigation. How
they can sacceed in such an attempt, however.
Is not clear, as the bill itself distinctly sets
forth that all matters of controversy between
the Government and the companies shall be at
once considered and disposed of by the United
States Circuit Courts.

Washington, April 9. — It is very probable
that within a few days a fresh illnstration of
Democrade economy and reform will be fur-
siibed by the enforced closing of the public
iSools of the District of Colombia For some
dme past it has been represented to oar new
rulers in the House that, in order to carry
>n these Institntiona until the end of the
school year, a Congressional appropriation
af $75,000 would be necessary. No action has
iseen taken in the matter, however, and the
3losing of the schools as indicated will proba-
bly be the result At the commencement of the
• year the District Commissioners Informed the
rrostees that it would be necessary to use the
strictest economy in conducting the schools.
This injunction has been e<nnplied with, bat
BotwIthstsmdijiLS mtrr effort to keei> daws ex-
penseson the Iittof the present month, the
Sinn set apart for the schools by the District
Commlssionen had been nearly exhausted.
Under the law the Commissioners are
powerless to give any relief, and it is
feared that as they are prohibited from
contracting debts unless they have the money
to pay, they will have to order the closing of
the schools at once. It has been suggested that
the teachers might continue to serve without
pay, but it is questionable whether such an
arrangement can be made without being re-
garded as an evasion of the law. The leading
Democrats in the House and on the Hotise
District Committee have repeatedly been In-
formed of this state of affairs, but in the name
of economy and reform they have no to this
time failed to furnish the relief which the tax-
payer of the District have every right to expect
at their hands.

NATION OP THB BILL REPORTED FROM
THE WATS AND MEANS COMMITTEE — MR.
WOOD ENLISTED IN A WAR AGAINST
PROHIBITORY DUTIES.
Sptciai Ditpateh to the Netc- York TimM.
Washington, April 9. — The Tariff bill
was taken up in the House to-day, and Mr. Wood
made his opening speech, explaining its provi-
sions and advocating its passage. The speech
was systematically arranged and supported by
statistics, which will make it valuable for refer-
ence during the tariff discussion. In its ar-
rangement, Mr. Wood showed that he has given
much time and study to the subject, and its de-
livery evinced considerable familiarity with
the several topics discssed. He de-
voted some time to discussing the necq^-
sity and purpose of sinking funds, showing
that the ainking fund for the redemption of
the national debt had been overpaid about
$240,000,000, and arguing from this fact
that its operations could be ' suspended for a
period of eight years, thus affording a measure
of relief to the people. He claimed that the
present tariff laws were complex, expensive,
and unju.it to all our interests, many of them
having been in existence since 1789, and not
now adapted to the requirements of the Cus-
toms service and the wants of commerce.
Since 1789 there had been 128 tariff
laws passed, every one of which contained some-
thing that had been dictated by personal or
partisan interests. To show the complex sys-
tem of the present tariff laws, he referred to the
fact that the list of dutiable commodities num-
bers 2,162, many of which have compound
duties. On this list there are over 1.000 arti-
cles subject to duty which yield the insignificant
annual aggregate of about $370,000. . He then
referred to the number of suits pending against
the Government growing out of the pres-
ent complicated system of assessing and
collecting Customs duties, quoting from the re-
port of the United States District Attorney at
Newark to show that up to July 1, 1877, over
3,000 suits were pending in the New-York Dis-
trict He claimed that the pending bill would
obviate all this litigation, and thus save a large
sum to the Government and prevent annoy-
ance to importers. All the complicated ma*
chinery of the present law in reference to in-
voices would be abolished, and an average tax
of 6 pereent. sobstttnted to Dover the numer-
ous and uncertain charges invented to annoy
its.
Prdtceeding to explain the bill, he said the re-
dnctiens made are small compared with what
they should be. They would not exceed, on an
average, 15 per cent., when they should be at
least 50. He made a special appeal to Western
men to support the bill, and took up in detail
all the materials ased for building purposes and
personal use and wear to show that agricultur-
ists do not escape the large tax imposed to fur-
nish exorbitant profits to the American manu-
facturer. " Take the house built by the West-
em farmer," said Mr. Wood; "on his
lumber he must pay 20 per cent;
window glass, 90 ; nails, 35 ; screws,
53 ; locks, 30 ; wall paper, 35." In the same
way he ran through the clothing worn by the
farmer and his family, and medicines and other
articles of consumption, to show the tax paid to
sustain the protective system. He gave a prac-
tical illustration to his argument by introducing
a felt hat, and describing the duty Imposed
upon the various articles which enter into its
manufacture. In concluding his speech Mr.
Wood gave notice that no matter what might be
the fate of his bill, he was enlisted in a war
against prohibitory duties, and would not cease
agitation until reform was secured. Gen.
Banks has the floor to reply to Mr. Wood, and
will probably address the House to-morrow.
The computation which was made in the
Bureau of Statistics at the request of the Secre-
tary, as to the amount of revenue which the
Wood Tariff bill would yield if it should be-
come a law, was computed on the basis of the
importations of the fiscal year 1877, no esti-
mate being made as to the increase of imports
which an increase of population, improvement
in business, or a reduction of the rates might
cause.
THE ISSUE OF TBEASUBT NOTES.
BILL TO RETIRE THE CIRCULATION OF NA-
TIONAL BANKS— A SUBSTITUTE PRE-
SENTED.
Speeiai DUswteh to the Vew-Torit Tlmu.
Washington, April 9. — The Committee
on Banking and Currency to-day reported a sub-
stitute for Ur. Buckner's bill to retire the dr-
cnlation of national banks by providing for the
Issue of Treasury notes to the amount of nv
tional bank-notes outstanding, which Treasury
notes shall be ased exclusively In the redemp-
tion, payment, and retirement from circulation
of national bank-notes. The bill has been
printed heretofore, and has not been materially
altered by the committee. An additional sec-
tion has been added which provides that here-
after, in all payments of Customs duties, two-
thirds of the sums so payable shall be paid in
coin, and one-third thereof shall be paid in
legal-tender notes or the . Treasury notes
authorized by the bill. The Treasury notes
are made exchangeable at par for legal
tenders at the option of the holder, at the ot&ce
of the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of
the United States, under such regulations as tho
Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe. The
bill provides for the retirement of national bank-
notes by requiring each bank to deposit monthly
with the Treasurer of the United States legal-
tender or national bank-notes not less in amount
than 5 per centum of its entire circulation.
Upon the receipt of each monthly deposit the
Secretary of the Treasury is required to reas-
sign and deliver to the banks a proportional
amount of the bonds deposited by them to se-
cure their circulation.
The consideration of the bill was flxed as a
special order for April 23, not to Interfere with
the Appropriation bills or the Tariff bill. The
vote on fixing a time for the consideration of
this bQl cannot be regarded as a test of its
strenstli in tlie Bonae. as some members voted
for consideration who will not be found voting
for the bill when it comes before the House on
final passage. But the vote of to-day— 126 to
106 — indicates that the vote on its passage will
be close, with the chances in favor of the
friends of the biU.

TIES VIOLATED BT THE PORTE AND THE
POWERS.
London, April 9. — The Times issaed a
special edition to-night containing the full text
of Prince GortschakolTs reply to Lord
Salisbury's circular dispatch. Prince
Gortschakoff contests Lord Salisbury's as-
sertions point by point, but the
general tone of his reply appears to be concilia-
tory. He denies that the Treaty of San Stefano
creates a strong Slav State under the control of
Russia, and declares that the arrangements
relative to Bulgaria are only a development of
the principle established by the Constantinople
Conference. He continues : " Lord Salisbury
admits that a return to the programme of that
conference, pure and simple, is rendered im-
possible by the war. The fact that the San
Stefano Treaty is preliminary indicates
that Russia baa not prejudged defini-
tive results, and has left room for an
ulterior understanding. Bulgaria will be under
Russian control no more than Roumania, which
also owes its existence to Russia. Russia is
quite ready to abridge the term of the occupa-
tion of Bulgaria as much as possible. The lim-
its of Bulgaria have only been indicated in
general terms, in accordance with the
nationality of the population ; the de-
tails will be left to a mixed commission.
The only object of assigning ports to Bulgaria
is to assist her commercial development, by
which England and the Mediterranean powers,
whose commerce has always been a powerful
lever for their political influence, are likely to
profit far more than Rnssla.
Prince Gortschakoff expr esses surprise at the
objections to the stipulations of the treaty
relative to Thessaly and Epirus. By the modest
reforms stipulated for, it is intended
to avoid the appearance of either
establishing Russian supremacy on the one
band, or utterly neglecting the Greeks on the
other. Russia did not forbid the Porte to con-
sult the European powers, as well as Russia, on
the reforms for the Greek provinces. There is
no longer any pretext for debarring Russia
from the possession of Bessarabia, as the free-
dom of the Danube is secured by the Interna-
tional Commission.
Prince GortschakolTs tone in regard to Ar-
menia Is much more energetic. He says :
Batonm is far from being equivalent to the pe-
enniaiy indemnity which it represents. The
Russian acquisitions in Armenia have only a
defensive value. Russia wishes to hold them
so as not to have to besiege them at the beirin-
ning of each war. These territorial cessions
are the natural consequence of the war.
If England wished to avert them she had only
to join Russia in exercising pressure upon
the Porte, which would probably have com-
pelled It to grant the reforms without war.
England having refused to do so she has
now no ground to question the right for
whieh Bossia has shed her hiaoA,
namely, the right to establish a state of things
which will henceforth render such sacrifices un-
necessary, or at least less onerous. The asser-
tion that Russia's annexations in Arme-
nia will interfere with European trade
with Persia, eonfilcts with statements
previously made by British Ministers.
Such assertions push mistrust to the extreme.
'The complaints concerning the indemnity are
equally ill-founded. The sum is out of all pro-
portion.to Russia's sacrifices. In the deferment
of the payment of the indemnity it is easier to
see a design to keep the Pone up to its engage-
ments in the interest of all than a design to
paralyze Turkey; but there is no remedy
against suspicion.
Prince Gortschakoff says, in eonclasion :
"The situation maybe summed up thus : Ex-
isting treaties have been successively Infringed
by the Porte in violating its obligations toward
the Christians.'andby the powers in interfering
on behalf of the Christians. LordSalisiiary him-
self recognizes that great changes an neeesasu^
in the treaties hitherto regulating the East. It
remains for Lord Sslisbnry to say how he would
reconcile these treaties and the recognized
rights of Great Britain and the other powers
with the benevolent ends to which the nnited
action of Europe|has always been directed, and
the attainment of which one learns with
pleasure the English Government de-
sires, namely, good government peace
and liberty for the oppressed popu-
lations. It is equally for the Marquis of Salis-
bury to say how he could attain the desired
end outside the preliminaries of San Stefa-
no, and yet at the same time take due ac-
count of the rights Russia has acquired
by the sacrifices she has borne alone.
Lord Salisbury's dispatch contains no reply to
these questions. It seems that entire liberty of
appreciation and action wonld have been more
naturally foimd by formulating, side by aide
with the objections contained in that dispatch,
some practical propositions of a nature to assure
an understanding for the solution of the present
difBcnlties."
LoMi>oN, April 10. — ^The Uma, in its leading
editorial, says Prince Gortschakoff's reply
shows a genuine desire to insure a peaceable
solution.
The Timet correspondent at Berlin says it
appears that Austria and Germany recognize
the European character of the Bessarabian
question, without, however, taking any direct
steps to Influence Russian resolves.

London, April 9. — St. Petersburg tele-
grams are very pacific. They say the feeling
gains ground that some formula will be in-
vented which will remove the obstacles to the
assembling of a congress, and that Prince Bis-
marck is evidently interesting himself to this end.
They declare that Russia has not sought to ex-
clude Europe from considering the solution of
the Eastern question, and does not regard the
methods proposed by the treaty of San
Stefano as the only solution Russia can
accept Russian diplomatists say: "Let Aus-
tria and England state the solntions they de-
sire. Perhaps by mutual concessions some
satisfactory arrangement can be found.
There is a wide basis for an agreement, seeing
. that all recognize great changes are necessary,
and real guarantees most be secnred against a
renewal of the recent dlstorbanees in Soutb-
eastem Europe, while the ' problems to be
solved apart from national ammrpropre, would
not be simplified by a Eoropean war. Lord

clared that it is his only hope of getting any set-

rians and pro-Russian Court party, and in de-
fault of soch acceptance Count Andrassy's po-
sition will be untenable.
St. PETEBSBtJBO, April 9. — ^The Journal de
St. Petertiourgt adverting to the hopes of the
maintenance of peace which have gained
ground during the last few days, points
ont what would have to be done
in order to effect a solution of
the crisis. " Russia," it says, " de-
mands that the benefits obtained for the Chris-
tians shall not be secured by inefficacious stip-
ulations like, those of 1856, but by material
guarantees. Ilussia cannotaccept the ephemeral
decision of a, congress, because it would not
assure peace. , If Europe be disposed to under-
take a settlement of the Eastern question in
the sense of emancipating the Christians, Rus-
sia will not raise any diSiculties, but discussion
of the questions at issue must be inspired by
confidence, not by jealousy."
The Journal further says : '* None can exer-
cise pacific influence better than the Berlin
Cabinet, which inspires confldence at Vienna,
London, and St. Petersburg. If the congress
assembles for the discnssion of new guarantees,
Russia will test them with a sincere wish to find
them suflicient."

London, April 9.— The drift of the news
from Constantinople is again distinctly pro-
English. The position of Vefyk Pasha, Presi-
dent of the Council of Ministers, is said
to be strengthened, and new objections have
been taken by the Turks against Russian
military movements. Russian garrisons have
relieved the Roumanians at Widdin, Nikopolis,
and Rahova, so that the Russians now hold
the Danube from its moath to the Servian
frontier.
The Russians are completing the fortifications
commenced by the Turks at Tchekmedje and
Serkos. Fresh purchases of arms are being
made by the Turkish War OtBce.
A Berlin dispatch to the Pall Mall GazetU
says : '' Notwithstanding the favorable re-
ports in the Berlin press, there is
reason to believe that M. Bratiano,
the Ronmanian Premier, is dissatisfied
with the results of his visit here. Germany has
declined to use direct pressure upon Russia for
the withdrawal of her claim to Bessarabia. The
Government has advised M. Bratiano to lay his
case before the Czar and endeavor to come to
terms by an amicable arrangement."
London, April 10. — ^A Renter telegram from
Bucharest says the report is confirmed that
Prince Ghika has been authorized to
Inform Prince Gortschakoff that the Rou-
manian Army would suffer itself to be
crushed rather than be disarmed. Prince
Charles has notified the Russian Consul to the
same effect It is stated that Russia is
about to relinquish the clause of the treaty
guaranteeing the passage of her Army through
Roumania, and will send a delegato to treat di-
rectly with the Roumanian Government on the
subject
The Vienna Politiail Comspondemx, however,
assertsthatthe Russian representative atBucha-
rest repeated Piinee Qortsshakoff's threats on

BATE UNIMPOKTAirr.
London, April 9. — la the Honse of Com-
mons this afternoon Sir Stafford Notheote,
Chancellor of the Exeheqner, again stated that
the Hoose wonld adjourn for the Eaiter re-
cess on the 16th inst, provided the pending de-
bate on the address to the Queen is eoneluded
to-night.
In the Honse of Commons to-night the debate
on the address to the Queen, in reply to her
recent Message, was continued, "rhe debate
was long but unimportant The speakers in
opposition to the address were principally Radi-
cals, such as Messrs. Joseph Chamberlain,
Henry Richard, and Jacob Bright
Sir Wilfrid Lawson, on behalf of the Radi-
cals, nioved the amendment, of which he had
previously given notice, contesting the neces-
sity of calling out the reserves.
The Marquis of Hartington urgently at>pealed
to Sir Wilfrid Lawson to withdraw his amend-
ment as ill-timed and unneeeaeary. He said it
was nndesirable to multiply the appearances of
difference at the present moment. Ho would
have had no hesitation in supporting the
amendment if he b elieved calling out the re-
serves would commit the coantry to immediate
war.
Sir Stafford Nortbcote reoUed in a moderate
speech, strongly denying that the Government
desired war, although if the necessity arose, he
said, they would not shrink from their duty.
Sir Wilfrid Lawson refused to withdraw his
amendment notwithstanding Lord Hartington's
appeal, and it was then rejected by a vote of
of 319 to 64.
The Marquis of Hartington, Mr. W. E. Fors-
ter, and many other Liberals, abstained from
voting. Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright sup-
ported the amendment
•The amendment proposed by Sir George
Campbell praying her Majesty to accept the
preliminary conference suggested by Germany
and abstain from isolated action while declaring
England is ready to support the other powers
against the spoliation of Roumania, was with-
drawn.
The address was then agreed to without a di-
vision.
This afternoon's PaU Mall Oaatte, in its
leading editorial article, in view of the
" factious opposition which, not daring to
move hostile resolutions, seeks to hamper the
Government by snch speeches as Lord Gran-
ville's, Lord Derby's, the Duke of Argyll's,
and Mr. Gladstone's," calls uimn the
Government to dissolve Parliament and thus
terminate the anarchy which has partially
paralyzed it daring the last two years.
WHY TBE EARL OF DERBY BESIGNED
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RIM AND THB
CABINET — HIS BESIONATION IN LORD
BEACONSFIELD'S hands two DATS DUR-
ING TBE DEMAND FOB A VOTE OF CREDIT
— SOME OTHER REASONS NOT TET DI-
VULGED INDICATING POSITIONS TAKEN
. 'BT THE CABINET NOT TET MADE KNOWN.
< London, April 9. — ^The most interesting
and important part of the first day's debate on
the address was Lord Derby's statement This
showed the difference between Lord Derby
and his colleagnes to be of long standing and
affecting the substance of their entire Eastern
policy. Lord Derby disapprove! of the early
summoning of Parliament The date ultimately
flxed was a compromise on a proposition that
Pariiament should meet even earlier. He disap-
proved so strongly of the vote of credit that he
temporarily retired from the Cabinet, and for
48 hoars Us resignation was in Lord Beaeons-
fldd'ihaBds: bntiiowU i aot the eaOiaK out
of the reserves which induced him to resign.
There are other reasons, but what those other
reasons are he cannot divnlge until the proposi-
tions of the Government from which he de-
serted are made known. It appears,
therefore, that the Government has come
to some resolutions which at present
are held in reserve. While the Govern-
ment has held from the ontset that Russia ean-
not liberate herself from existing engagements
without the consent of the other contracting
parties. Lord Derby attaches little importance
to the necessity of requiring from her
a formal acceptance of that principle.
He recognizes that if the congress should meet
such a principle most be liud down, but he
does not emphasize it as a primary requisite for
a final arrangement of any kind. He re-
gards the failure of the congress as com-
paratively unimportant He does not recog-
nize in the consequence's of that failnre a state
of affairs justifying or requiring forcible de-
fiance of British interests. They might be
the subject of further negotiations in
which objections to various points of tho treaty
of f^an Stefano could Oe discussed between the
individual powers, but he deprecates on every
ground England going to war on account of
such interests as are involved in these ques-
tions.
TBE EASTERN QUESTION AND STOCKS
THE MARKET UPHELD BT A CONTINENTAL
COMBINATION IN THE INTEREST OP A
RUSSIAN LOAN — THE NEGOTIATIONS A
FAILURE IN PARIS.
London, April 9. — The stock market was
quiet yesterday, but prices in the foreign de-
partment were upheld by quotations from the
Continent Russians at one time touched
their highest point since Lord Derby resigned
the Foreign Secretaryship. It is surmised in
some quarters that Continental prices aro sirp-
ported by a combination which is ende-avoring
to negotiate a new Itussian loan. One
of the members of the Berlin banking-house of
Mendelssohn was in Paris yesterday seeking
the co-operation of the Paris financial
houses concerned in last year's loan to
place about 300,000,000 francs more.
Several Paris dispatches state that Herr
Mendelssohn returns to Berlin unsuccess
ful. The market became flatter toward tho
close yesterday, in consequence of apprehensions
of disclosures that might be made in the Par-
liamentary debates on the address to the Queen.
POSITION OF ITALY.
PSEEDOM FROM ALL ENGAGEMENTS EXCEPT
THOSE OF EXISTING TREATIES — ^RIGOR-
OUS NEUTRALITT.
EOME, April 9. — Count Corti, Minister of
Foreign Affairs, answering interpellations
on the Eastern question in the Cfaam-^
ber of Deputies to-day, said that Italy
was free from all engagements except
those devolving upon her through treaties
which constituted the public law of Eu-
rope. The progress of negotiations between
European Cabinets afforded grounds for be-
lieving that there would be a peaceful settie-
ment In any event Italy would preserve a rig-
orous neutrality.
TBE ENGLISH COTTON OPERATIVES.
London, April 10. — A conference took
place at Manchester yesterday be-
tween the cotton operatives and masters
of North and North-east Lancashire. The
operatives offered to submit to a 5 per cent re-
daction of wages as a compromise, but the mas-
ters refused to agree to it

THE STRUGGLES OF THE DEMOCRATS FOR OF-
FICE— CHARGES AND COUKTEE-CHABGES
— ^A BITTER AND DISGRACEFUL CONTES'T.
g^eelmt Dfepnek to at yeto-Tork Timet.
Raleioh, April 9.— The Democratic wrangl'e
over candidates for Judges of the Supreme Court is
becoming exoeedingly bitter and disgraceful to the
last degree. The Counties of Allechany, Cabarrus,
Halifar, Henderson, Linooln, and McDowell have
declared for Mr. Schenck for Chlef-Jnstice. Mr.
8cb«nek recently held a term of conrt in Halifax
Oountv, and it has been well nnderstood since that
time that be and Thomas N. Hill of that eonnty, had
formed a combination to secure each other's nom-
ination as Chlef-Jostiee and Associate Justice.
When this fact was annonnced, the papers
devoted to exalting the claims of ex-Jndge
Howard, of Edgeeomb, attacked Mr. Kill,
saying that he was not the choice of Eastern Carolina
and denounced him as unfit for the Bench, because
he has not a county reputation as a lawyer. Last
week the manager of Judge Schenck's canvass was
in this city, and it is presumed that hf* a5cerTfiin*>d
that Mr. Hill could not be of any service to the former
This manager lives in Cabarrus County, and on Jant
Saturday that county held a convention and indorsed
Mr. Schenck, Mr. Ashe, andMr. Howard, and totally
ignored Mr. Hill. The news now comes up from
Halifax tfa.at Mr. Hill and his friends are
furious that he should have been so basely betrayed
in the house of his supposed friend. They threntou
Mr. Schenck with unreleutlnc war, and have pledged
themselves to defeat his nomination. Another Dem-
ocratic paper has denounced Judjre Howard as unfit
for the Bench because, as a Director of the Wilming-
ton and Weldon Railroad Companv, he has paralyzed
the material property of Enatem 5,'orth Carolina and
made Wilmington, the chief city of the State, a way
station. Another Democratic paper has denounced
Chief.Ju8tice Smith as a fossil and an imbecile, and
wanting in backbone. Other Democratic papers
have denounced Mr. Schenck because he .was
a Kuklux ; that in the hour of ' dans:er he
showed the white feather and betrayed his brethren :
that he shot a ne-.:ro in the back in self-defense while
the nesTO was running ; that he approved of tho
punishment of the Kuklux by Judge Bond in 1871 ;
that Mr. Schenck's morals and ability are not to be
mentioned in comparison with Judge Smith's ; and
thus the fight proceeds.
PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
CAUCUS OF THB REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF
THE HOUSE — THE SERGEANT-AT-ARMS TO
BE SUSTAINED — PROSPECTS OF AN AD-
JOURNMENT.
Special DiUHOeM to flW 17«w. Fort TTmea
Habrisburg, April 9.— The Republican mem-
bers of the House of Representatives held a caucus
this evening 1^ adopt a course of action in regard to
the criminal proceedings pending against Ser^aut-
at-Anns Gaines, in Delaware County, and to agree
upon a time for final adjournment. After lone dis-
cussion of the matter, the caucus resolved to sustain
the Sergeant-at-Arms in the courts of Delaware
County, and to pay the necessary excenses of his
defense. This subject disposed of, the caucus next
proceeded to consider the more interesting
one — to gome members at least — of final
adjournment A strong effort was made to fix an
early day in May aa the time for adkmmment but
this movement w/is defeated, and the 24th prox. se-
lected aa the last day of. the session. The selection
of so remote a date for final adjournment is the re-
sult of a coalition between the country roemt>erB and
the representatives from the oil resions. The for-
mer claim that their constituents demand that
local bills of importance now on the calendar
shall be t>«s8ed at this session, and to
accomplish this a long session will be neces-
sary. The oil men nave a meaanre pending,
known as the Anti-Freight Discrimination bill, which
they seem determined shall tie passed at the present
session. The passage of this bill will, it is claimed,
inflict great injury on tho Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, and greatly benefit the New-Vork
and the Baltimore and ' Ohio Roads. The
bill deprives railroads doing business in
the State of the privilege . of making
discrimination in freight rates between local traffic
of . small lots and large ahipments over Iouk dis-
tances. The bill emanates from the Oil Prodacers'
TJnlon, which demands ita passage to the sacrifice of
all other measures on the calendar. It Is a measure
intended to punish the railroad companies for their
opposition to the Oil Pipe Line bill, which was de-
feated this session.

Albany, April 9.— The Committee on Prfvl*
lefEcs and Elections znet tbU evening in the AaasaMyj
Chamber to hear the sommlng np In the eaae of Vi-^
Hnmilton Fish, Jr., apilnst the coTreBpondents oJ
Tax Ksw-YOBK Times. AU the memben of th«
committee were present. It was agreed, aftei
some discussion, that Mr. Georoe Bliss, couiel
for Mr. fish, should open, and that Mr. HaleJ
counsel for the correspondents, shonld follow. Mc'
Bliss commenced bj roadlne the paragraph whieii
had occasioned the icrrestication, which be said con*
tained a general charge and sercral speclfieationaJ
This charge, he argued, had been disprored \>f th«
evidence as well as all the material specifieationaj
Talcing np each clause of the paragraph, be claimed,'
first, that the statement that rumors were cmrent of
a bargain with John Kellr for the votes of tba
Tammany Senators had been shown to be false bn
the evidence of every witness called, including Kr4
Snow, the correspondent. Kext, as to the meeting
of the committee early in the morning, the evldeoc*
showed that It was a regular one and would hava
been held all the same bad there been nof
Elective Controller bill in the Legislature. Tsi. t»*
spect to the statement of the report that two Tam^
many Senators had weakened. It bad no more foaaq
datlon than a sleepy conversation with AsatnaJ
blyman Baker, held between 12 and 3
in the momiog. It w^s true, as stated
in the paragraph, that when the Assembly met tha
hill was reported. It was not true that notice of tba
fact was at once communicated to the Tammany
Senators, or that they gave assurance that
they would vote right. AU the evidence
showed that these statements were utterly wronfiJ
It was true that Mr. Fish congratulated Hr. Pome*'
roy on his speech, as did others, and it was nn*
donbtedly owing to that speech that Mr. Smytb
was acquitted. Ko evidence bad been gives of msxf
bargain. Mr. Bliss concluded by stating that all!
Mr. Fish asked was a report from, the committM
such as should vindicate the dignity of a eo-ordin»t*
branch of the Legislature, and that the report of tbtf
committee should be sent to the Senate for its. oon-
sideration.
Hon. 31atthew Hale summed up the case for ThS
TtuKs correspondents in a speech of an hour's length. I
He said this was a very curious case— unlike any^
thing be had ever known to corse before a l^slati«»
committee. He then read the resolution moved by
Mr. Fish authorizing this investigatdon. FoU
lowing this he road the dispatches in Thi
Times to which Mr. Fish takes exeep*
tion. He then proceeded tn show that out
of the eight distinct allegations in that ^Uspatch fiT«
had been proved to be true. Of the other tbree, b*
would show the committee that they were made on
good and reasonable grounds, such as warrmnted the
making of them at the time, and that they wers
made without malice. Mr. Hale then detailed th<
facts and rumors about the vote on the Smyth case
thatprevailedatthetlme. The report that two of th<
Tammany Senators bad weakened on the night b*i
fore the vote was takeiC which had oeen proved by
the testimony and by the extnordlnary action ol
Fish in connection with the Elective Controllers bill,
he argued, furnished a legitimate and fair basis foe
the inferences drawn in the dispatch. Ea
also read from the corresi>ondence of th*
yVorld and Sun to show that the representatives
of those papers dre^ the same conclnsiOBS that MrJ
Snow did. It was notorlons.be said, that almost!
everybody who thought Smyth should be removelj
from office drew the same inferences abont a bar-
gain with Tammany Hall Senators for his acqnitt^
and these inferences or suspicions would contmne to
be drawn and believed by the people of this Stat*'
In spite of nil investigating committees of the I^e-
cislature, directed against newspapwr correspondents^
The people of this country were very proue to l)eJ
lieve in cormnt political barons when the drcxunw
stances looked susptdons. Before the gentleman,
from Putnam [Fun] was bom such bargains were
charged. Wlien John Quincy Adams was elected
President and Henry Clay was appointed Secretary]
of State by bim. every I>emocratie newspaper r
and every Democratic orator ia this lanA
charged that there was a baTgain. But these states-
men did not think it worth while to call upon Con-^
gress to put an investigating; committee at work to)
prove the charges false. W'henever a legislator i«
unjuRtly accuiied and feels in his own conscience that
he is iunorent he does not rave aod tear and e:qireas
his contempt for newspaper men, and call for an in-
vestigating committee to e cclnde correspondents
from the floor of the Lt^islauire, bat sim[Jly dei^s
tne nnjnst charge, aqd leaves the people to judge for
themselves.
Mr. Hole then took up the charge of malice, and
said he would prove that this investiication had!
shown that so far as the malice is concerned, tfaa
learned gentleman who moved this resolution him*
self pnived that tho malice was entirely on his part,'
and not on the part of the corresuondent. When Mr.
Mills was called as a witness, almost the first thine
that Mr. Fish proved by him. on the cross-examina-
tion, was that he, in response to criticisms nusde by.
The Nbw- York Times, had written a letter to MrJ
Jones, which the centleman has, alluded to befoie,]
and has rather prided himself on. as being a jMirticu-
larly offensive letter to that gentleman; and I think:
when he was examined «s a, witness, I must admiv
that in all my extwrience in the exAmlnation of wit-,
nessos, I have never seen a witnoes upon the stand'
who seemed to bo overcome, to be brimming over,-
with malice, more than the mover of this resolution.]
And In answer to a qnoKtion put b^- his own.
counsel, with reference to his congrntulaung Senator,
Pomeroy on his speech, he took occasion to say, with
n view to making himftelf partirnlarly "offensive U»
me. that ho had previnuslr fonrtK' an opinion as to
the puerility of his fHiile'i] partner — and this is tho
man who complains of malice on the part of a news-
paper correspondent. I was nev^r more astonished
in my life. Mr. Chairman. I say this with reluctance,
sayine it as I do to a committ*-*o of which he is a
member. His interest seemed xo be, not to diseloso
feels which were pertinent to f ais investigation, but
to sfve a thrust here, a stab there, and a blow in
another place. Rut now let u;. see, taking himself as
a standard, how much reAson he has t<k
complain of nncbarittbie conclusions. Mr. H^»
then rend Fish's letter to Mr. Jones, eharfring h>a
fellow-members with a cormot barcun to nrevenc
needed legislation fnrNew-York City. It is said, con-
tinued Mr. Hnle. that thi'« was a private letter.
It was written to a newspaper publisher,
in whicli ho charged his fellow-meaibent.>
Democrats and Republicans, on the floor
of this Assembly, with bargaining and corro^
tion. in almost so many words, and that. too. on
less b&slB of facts than the dispatch written by yn
Times correspondent of whirh !;f* r'^mpiains'; auw
he concludes his letter- bv asitiiit, tne newspaDer pub-
lisher to hold np to public execration the men who
ho alleges niii<le this corrupt bargaiu. This was
the chnntr of the learned gentleman toward bis
as«ocinte.<;, and he now complains because newspaper
men do not construe his acta charitably. Mr, FUh
testified that be ki^ew nothing about any "sale."
nnv " surreptitioos and clandestine deal, "^ but the
hill did not pass, and he Judged there had
been s deaC just as Mr. Snow jodjced
from rumor, from statements, from facts which weT«
before him, that there had been a btircain in tba
case. As I have before remarked, my belief is, and T
think it is a belief that the gentleman himself, as bn
advances in life, will come to entertain, thatt
the best way for s man, if ha believes that he^
is "free from any Imputation of this Idnd, is not to
get np an inveatigstlon as to the newxnaper oon^

foi newspaper men cenerally, and to say ' that

not to try and gel tfaem expelled from legislattv^

It Tvas irhile spealong in a former notice

boiated aboveadiWrway in tbeEaat Boom of tbe
Academy of Design, tbat allnalon waa mad* to
tbe wide gnlf wbieb Ues between pictorial art
regarded from tbe atand-point of tbe artist and
from tbe atand-point of tbe pnblle. 'V^at
does tbe pnblio care about bigb IlgbtB,
chiaroscnro, Imninoiu sbadowi, and all the
rest of what the IrreTerent call " art twaddle " I
Tbe pnblie wishes to be anrased in one waj or
another, whether by the sight of beaatifnl
things, or tbriUlng things, or even Isstmetive
thinga. The public may^be likened to a little
child which clamors : "Show me some pietnres,
show me pictures!" To this natural instinct in
people who have either no taste or no leisure
for becoming dilettanti in art, what do
our artists respond f The Beards answer eloT-
crly enough with monkeys and dogs dressed up
like men, ana going through human actions.
Wordsworth Thompson paints George Wash-
ington on hoT»e-back reviewingthe ragged Con-
tinental:). (No. 483 South Room. ) A tbln line
of backwoodsmen, half-breeds, and Indians
takes the lead ; after them come the mu-
sicians, officers of the line and the ranks
of determined yoemanry. Tbe whole scene
Is reslislic. The General, his staff, and Army
KTd not made pretty and impossible; neither is
taeir raggedziess orerdoue. Robert W. Weir
lias historical subjects as well as genre. Tbe
South Room contains a small canvas, (No. 530.)
representing Columbus before the Conneil at
Salamanca. It has enough dignity in the bear-
log of the actors to rescue it from conunon-
T'lace. In tbe North Room is a picture of
Titian in bis studio, (No. 322,) and tbe East
Room contains "The Microscope," (No. 373,)
and "The Snow-plow at West Point," (No.
392.) All these may be fairly called popular
in their aim. They nave a story to tell which
is obvious to tbe least informed. ' Julian Scott .
is another who seeks tbe popular pulse in
" Prisoners from Saratoga on their Way to Bos-
ton." Wioslow Homer occasionally bits a re-
sponsive chord in human bre.asts with a plo-
ttire like that in tbe corridor called " Water-
melon Boys," in which we are called
upon to sympathize with the fnn of eating
stolen fruit. But the number of such nictures
Is insignificant compared with those which are
either frankly nothing more than " studies," or
are portraits, or are paintings called '*of stiil
life." Such an exhibition is therefore interesting
enough to artistsaudamatears, butwhat possible
enjoyment can the general public extract there-
from 1 Is there a single picture on these walls
which will be sare to attract so much attention
from both artists and public that it can be
termed a universal favorite!
It may b« an.<iwered to this that the critics in
tbe newspapers are chiefly to blame for tbe
present dearth of large pictures, which tell
stories amusing to tbe public. The critics have
so attacked, so derided both the subjects and
the stvle of painters who attempted popularity,
that they have driven them out of tbe field.
The position of the critic is, indeed, a peculiar
one. He is a kind of hybrid, neitheron the side
of the people nor of the atelier, but standing be-
tween the two. The more he knows of art the
more technical become his judgments, and the
more absurd he seems to people in general. On
the other b.ind, the further he movesaway from
artists tiie more ridiculous he becomes in their
eyes. They can point out a hondred blunders
made through ret^essness or ignorance. As
one of the AcademSans expresses it, "A critic
ronsists of a little ink and unlimited cheek."
To the artist absorbed in tbe manual labor of
of his profession, and exercised in mind con-
cerning such technical details, as few even
among good critics know the artistic side, as-
sumes great importance, while tbat of the pub-
lic sinks proportionately into insigniilcance. In
other words, the public has no rights.
Nevertheless, the public asserts its rights by
either staying away or only coming to admire
what amuses it. The men who seek popularity,
it will bo noticed, are the older arnsta ; those
who belong to a former regime. The young
men aro here with studies, the young women
with dower pieces and fruit, the best of them
with portraits. This seems to mean that the new
generation has discovered what a long and
thorny path is that of art, and bow much bet-
ter it is to be bumble and, beginning with
studies, gradually work upward to something
really fs-tat. The older men have not attained
ro anything great; perhaps It is because they
have not begun with sufilcient care, have not
laid a ground-work thorough enough, have not
made themselves good pupils before attempting
to be masters.
Take, for example, Shlrlaw's " Bather," In the
North west Room. Note the art with which
roundntss is given to the limbs of the boy by
even brush-strokes across tbe limbs, without the
(jlightcst attempt to " stipple" or punch the
lanvas lightly with the tip of the Wiisb. This
Hgiiro is a studv, not a picture ; but it is all tbe
hotter for being a stndy, and should
have been so denominated In the cat-
alogue. We can tell from this so much
about Mr. Shirlaw — he knows his trade, and, if
he have wit enough to conceive a good subject,
will not find his hand to fail him in carrying it
out. If "The Bather" be considered a fnll-
tiedgcd painting, and something more than a
study, then there is room to criticise it, for the
very fact that it shows too plalnlythe strokes of
the brush.
It would not do to call Mr. Shlrlaw's picture
painty, but there is another belonging to the
same school of art which exaggerates the qual-
ity of boldness — what is also called broadness —
Into positive pain tineas. Thlslsalargecanvssln
the South Room, by a Munich artist named
Schmitzberger, which is called "Waiting for
the llasiter." Here are two large dogs, a par-
rot, table, tx>oks, &c. — in fine, an animal
ind bric-i-brac picture, which, instead of
being anxiously worked over and fash-
ioned with fine brushes into a cabi-
net picture, has been dashed in with a
lordly breadth of treatment on a wide canvas.
It is like tbe work of Munkaccy. Here indeed
are mas.sy spatulafuls of paint ; there is a
prodigality in the use of pigments which may
be said to be •' worthy of a better cause." There
is excellent workmanship exhibited in this, but
it stands much further oft from a true picture
than that of Mr. Shirlaw. It is bold and taking ;
it may be worth every dollar of. the oriceasked;
yet it must rest on its merits as a study, not a
picture in the complete sense of the term. The
paintiness of it is so apparent that the attention
IS distracted from the meaning of the picture to
the method of its fabrication, and so soon as
that takes place in tbe observer's mind tbe chief
aim of a work of art is missed. The painter has
Ipeen working not for the public, but for the
approbation of other painters, or those initiated
into the mysteries of the craft.
Of course there is no statement here that it
is right to consult the public taste and Isnore
the artistic, or vice versa. Only facts aro l>e-
In". stated. Each painter must choose for him-
seff how far he is to do "the popular thing,''
how far to follow the rigorous promptings of
his mind in the direction which he considers
ibe highest of high art. Here is Mr- Thomas
Morao, who is frankly Turnerosque, because ho
admires Turner and finds that the public
like his interpretations of that eccentric genius,
in the North-west Room, over the door, is "A
Dream of the Orient," (No. 71G,) which Is not
10 bad a dream, as dreams go. This will not
please those who have got to like the twang of
Turner, but how few, comparatively, have seen
Tumer'a pictures, and how few of thoie who
have seen them learn to appreciate them! In
the corridor he has "A Summer Shower,"
;No. 137.) in which the styles of Diax
and Turner aro by no means disagree-
ably blended ; for. if Mr. Moran be
somewhat lacking in imagination, bis execution
is marveloualy facile and his knowledge of
what the i>eople like remarkably sure. Boliert
C. Minor has taken his glace beside Mm with
cfe ver adaptations oftbestylesoC Corot and Diaz,
(No. 379, "Evening," East Room; No. 448,
•' Autumn ;".'No. 471, " Jnne Morning," South
Room ; No. 615, " October," West Room.) Very
liiflTerent from these artists is Mr. Qeorge In-
nej.', who seems to be courting neither
tbe public nor the suffrages of his'fellow-
»rtist8. . We are not sure that Mr. Innesa is
auite right in his mind, so startling are the de-
velopments of his studio for the year. He, too,
!ias taken a leaf from the note-book of Turner,
but It is rather a literary tha» an artistic leaf.
Under his croen and yellow landscapes be now
■{fixes a tablet bearing strange words, more or
less rhythmical, mors or less reasonable. These
are the lucubrations of Mr. Inness' own brain ;
he disdains the trumpery poeu of ac-
knowledged literature and supplies his own
legends from his own muse. As to his
landscapes, they are not being better painted,
but rather the contrary. Inness is one of the
very few painters, tre have who can be called
eblorista. But a colorist must have variety,
and hTmnat have Klf-rMtraint. Noa. 38l,

Mrs. HelsD S. Clark, a magnetic pbyslci&s, wsa re-
called. 2dr. Iiord, of coimsel for the eontestants,
said he wished to prove &at Oommodore Venderbtlt
hadtoM the witness that his first wife had besa a
Kreat aid to him ; tbat sha had planned with great
wisdom for bis benefit ; that she had made him com-
fortable throQR&OQt her life ; bat that he feared his
second irlfe, althoufh she liked him after a fashion,
had married hhn malnlrfor the $500,000 with whieh
he had endowed her. Ur. Ijord nrved tbat testi-
mony to this effect be admitted, as it Iprored that
the Commodore had become weakened in intellect,
else he woold sot bore talked so freely to a stranger.
The testimony was exelndod. Ur. Lord next offered
to prore that the Commodore once said to the wit-
noM that he could not understand where his son
Cornelius got his faults. She replied : " Yoa bare
spoken lo well aboat bis mother, Commodore, be
eould not have got his faults from her.*'
He responded, reflectlrely: **Xo; It most have
been from me." The Oommodore afterward said
that Cornelius was generous, bat wasteful, while his
brother WUUam was avaridoos like htm [the Com-
modore;] witness asked the Commodore if avarice
would not lead a person to do wrong In order to ae*
quire property ; he replied that tt mlgb^ The testi-
mony was excluded, as was also an offer by Mr.
Lord to prove that the Commodore told Mrs. Clark
that his ion William treated his [the Commodore's]
second wife better than did the other chUdreu, who
were opposed to her entrance Into the family. An
offer was then made to prove that the Commodore
once said to Mrs. Clvrk: "When I am Kone there
will be trouble, but they cannot break the wiH," and
that he admitted he bad done some wronx by making
such a will, bat said he made It because he did not
like to have his property scattered after his death.
Surrogate Calvin said he hoped the admission of
this testimony would not be objected to, as it seemed
to him that if it were admitted it would end the
case, being the strongest evidence yet offered as to
the soundness of the Commodore's reasons for mak-
ing the wQl now contested.
Mr. Clinton said that his side, to be consistent,
must adhere to tho course it had adopted. He ob-
jected to the testimony, saying that the jostification
for his objection would appear durlcfE the cross-ex-
amination. The testimony was excluded.
Mrs. Clark was then allowed to testify. She said
tbat she met Commodore VanderbUt at Tiske
George in 1860, and at Saratoea about nine years
ago ; at the second meetiof; he told her his health
was much improved, and that he thought he wonld
lake a younK wife ; she met him again in Central
Park about five years ago, and again a year
later, when he called at her residence for
medical treatment: he continued his visits to her
up to the period of hts last sicknesss; she visited him
at his residence while he was aiek ; at his first vl^it
to her he said that he understood she dlaxnosed dis-
ease; witness replied that he had been informed
wrongly : he then said ; "Why, you are a clairvoy-
ant! witness renlied thst if she had any God-given
power to locate disease, she would endeavor to use
It for his benefit: she said also that she had taken
things in her hands acS pnychometrl tally divined
from them the diseases of tbe person to whom they
belonged : the Commodore told her he was a great
sufferer, and his pain almost unfitted him for busi-
ness; his son William, however, knew a great deal,
he said, and helped him very much ; indeed, he did
not know what he would do without WUUam. for he
was rendered almost Insane by his sufferings; the
witness, at his request, stroked his bead where he
said the pain was ; ihe x>eiu then moved down Into
the body, and she followed it ontll it passed away;
then he said be felt like a new man; at the Hccond
visit he said he did not believe that anybody eould
cure him, but felt gratified for the relief she had
given him ; at the third visit he told witness that he
did not feel satisfied to die, as he had always been a
vigorous man, and had done a great work ; Mrs.
Clark said that st Commodore Vanderbilt's request
she accompanied him to the house of a spiritual
medium named Charles Foster.
Mr. Lord then offered to prove that during the In-
tercourse between the witness and Couunodore Ynn-
derbllt tney had frequent discussions upon the sub-
ject of Spiritualism. She advocated the higher type
of Spiritualism, while he considered coromunieatlons
with the spirits who are endowed with the power of
prophecy as merely the means by which he could
procure knowledge as to approaching variations in
the prices of stocks, or other information, by the use
of whieh he eould Increase bis wealth. '\vhea the
witness and the Commodore visited the medium Fos-
ter, the Commodore was told during the stance that
the spirit of his dead wife was present and had a
eommunicatiou for bim. He replied that he did not
wish to hear from her, but only to learn how stocks
woul 1 move.
A long argument took place upon the admissibility
of such evidence, and at its conclusion Borrogate
Calvin ruled that it could not be admitted. Iiater on.
Mrs. Clark, replying to questions respecting her oO-
servations of changes In the mental and physical
condition of the Commodore, said tbat In hts latter
days he was easily moved, and had stated tbat he had
cammunlcated with the spirit of Jim Fisk st Fos-
ters house, and, after disputing with the wraith of
his old antagonist about tbe course of stocks, finally
gave way to ita opinions. She waa stopped short br
the counsel for the proponent. Ex-Judge Comstock
B&id it was abanrd to assume that the Commodore
would accept the opinions of the late James Fisk in
life or after death, as counsel happened to know
that there was an inveterate suit between the two.
Sending even at the time of the Commodore's death,
[rs. Clark next said that the Commodore repeated
himself continually in his remarks. In fact he
wearied her with numerous declarations as to h^sson
WiUiam's great ability, and his fears of death. He
was greatly worried by the Blb^cal declaration that
" It U easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a
needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of
heaven."
Tne Surrogate — ^He is not the only one who has
been troubled by that.
Mrs. Clark, continuing, testified that the Commo-
dore said to her repeatc^y that he thonsht be was
doing wrong in giving his son William all the money.
This was stricken out of the testimony. Once the
Commodore jumped up while she was treating him,
and said sharply, ** Why don't you remove that psln
as readily as you did before?" she replied, "Re-
member, 'Commodore Vanderhllt, you are not to com-
mand me ! I'm boss of this job, of nothing at all ; "
he talked very much about the Bible, and wanted to
set other people's knowledge of its contents ; hs
knew nothing at all about it himself : he also often
asked, " How far away do you think heaven is T " '
The witness was closely cross-examined by Mr.
Clinton, who. after having caused her to state how
often and when she visited the Commodore during
his last sickness, declared that he was proceeding
upon the belief that Mrs. Clark never did enter the
Vanderbilt mansion. The witness t««tlfied tbat she
took no notice of the persons she met in the Commo-
dore's house and room ; she remembered vaguely
that she weui admitted at each visit by a man who,
she supposed, was a servant, and was conducted by
him up a flioht of stairs to a room on the left of the
atairwav. Mr. Clinton brought forward Mr. Corne-
lius V. De Forrest, and asked Mrs. Clark If she had
ever seen him in the Commodore's house. She re-
plied that his features were familiar to her, but she
could not state where she had seen him ; she said
tnat she had been called to visit the Commodore by
a not* apparently written by him ; she thought tbe
note waa at her home, and she promised to look for
it, and, if she found it, to carry It to the court this
morning, until when the Surrogate adjonmed the
examination.

any disdplinBrT proceedings, and they there-
fore recommended that his character be passed,
whtdi was done. The consideration of
tbe relations of sopemunerraiiy preachers
was then tat:en up, and Revs. 3. Henson, J. o. lusldp,
A. S. Francis, ana W. H. Norrii were continued oa

Dr. 'VTUUs denounced the action of the committee in
brinrio' the brother's secrets before the Confarenee,
anddeclarea that the committee was the most shame-
fal and abominable confidence ffuiUotlne he haJ ever
beard of. He hoped the brother's ebar«ct«nr would
be passed. Finally, mt tbe request of Rev. t>c. Bnck-
ley, the Bishop withdrew the name of Mr, Bethel for
the present, because be was absent without leave of
tlM Conference. Rev. C. M. Gifan. Rev. C Kelsey,
and Rev. J. N.Lightbonm were also cootinued on the
list, and Revs. J. Brien, J. A. Dean, and George Hoi*
lis were cranted effective relations. Rev. J. H.

canse be represented, after which Rev. Mr. Pills-
bury presented a partial report from the Committee
on fiouoation, and read a srtatemeut from Rev. Dr.
Foss, President of the Wesleyan University. Dr.
Foss then made an address in bebslf of the tmiver*
slty. He appealed to the Conference for scholars,
and for money. He asked support for tbe proposi-
tion to form a century club, consisting of luO men,
who will a<:ree to give $100 each to the support of
the colleges. The Committee on Bishops' Support
reported that the eontributions for that purpose this
year amount to ^,257 72, which is l|t»44 01 more
than last year.
At the afternoon session tbe report of the Wo-
men's Foreiitm Missioaary Society was read and
passed, as was also the report of the Committee of
the Bible Society and that, of the Committee on
Church Extension. The roll of superannuated minis-
ters was afain taken up, and.the following were con-
tinued: Messrs. Dibble, White, Landon. Stephens,
Work, Sanford, and Hill. The case of Rer. Mr.
Dorsey, who was Mssed at the forenoon session,
was taken up, and be was continued on the supernu-
merary list. The ease of Rev. Mr. Bethel wits called,
and be was also eoatinued. H. D. Latham was
placed on the superannuated list, as were also Kev.
Robert Codlinc and Rev. G. W. Allen. Revs. C. T.
MaUory. M. N. GloisE'Ad, and L. W. AbboU were
Sintea supernumerary relations. Tbe coae of Rev,
neca Rowland, now on the superannuated list, was
called for, and a demand was made for tbe report of
the committee appointed to inquire into his ease.
■ The report was preeeoted in the form of a resolution
declaring that the reputatioa of Mr. Uowland
is such tbss he ought to be advised
to ask for a location, and tbat if
he refuses to do so he be informed that at the next
session his cbar&rt4^/ will be impeached. Mr. How-
land had been advised to ask for a location and had
refomd to do so. A warm debate followed, in which
Rev. Dr. Buckley broi^bt charges against Mr.
Howland. and asked for a committee of io-
▼estlgiAion, at tbe same time threatening to
make a charge of immorality. Rev. Dr.
Graves, Presiding Elder in the district in which Mr.
Howland has been preaching, stated that tbe official.
body of the church where he [Howlandj has preached
had sent to the Conference a unanimous request that
be be seat back to them aeain, and Mr. Howiaod,
wb« was present, said that he was willina to be tried
at any time, bat eould not get ready within 24 hours,
as it would be necessary for him to do U he was tri»d
at this session. Dr. Buckley Anally consented to
withdraw the cbargea and motion for a court, provided
the Conference would Instruct tbe Presiding Elders
of the Conference not to employ Mr. Howland, and
with the underatandine thst he must eome prepared,
at tbe beginning of the next Confei«Bce, to stand
trial on ue chances preferred against him. At the
same time he renewed bis threat to prefer more seri-
oos cbar^ges, if forced to do so. The ehargee were
withdrawn, and the Conference refused, by
a vote of 72 to 52, to pass Mr. How-
land's character. After another long debate the
ease was referrecd to a Committee of Inquiry, with
inetruetioos to report what action should be taken.
Bishop Foster ajipointed Rev, Drs. Rlttell. Smith,
Asten, Clarke, and Adams such comtnlttee. Rev.
Mr. Boole read the report of the Committee on the
Freedmen's Aid Society, containing the following reso-
lution : "In the neitlect of the Kational Government,
the natnTsl and sworn guardians of the freedmao, to
frame and enforce a policy for the advaneemePt and
elevation of the roUlions of freedmen. It becomes the
duty of the Church of Christ to take tbe matter in
hand, and secure them the full benefits of thvir sad-
denly-ocqalred dtizensbip." . Rev. Dr. Pnllmsn
moved to strike out the resolntion, as refleetlug upon
the GoTemment. The resolntiou waa amende<l so as
to read: "In view of the Inability or fatloreof tbe
General Government, by any legislative or adminis-
trative srtion, sdequately to provide for the eleva-

and tbe report was adopted, after which the Confer-

THE TAWrr BILL.
Mr. Wood, of New- York, moved that the House
go into Committee of tbe Whole for th« eonsidera-
tioa of the Tariff bill, and asked unanimous consent
that a time be fixed tor termlaating the general de-
bate npoD tbe bill.
Mr. Keu<et, of Pennsrlvasla, objected to a

Mr. Wood withdrew his request for Umltlxig the

Tbe House then went Into Committee of tbe
Whole (Mr. Sayler, of Ohio, in tiie Chair) mpon the
Tariff bill.
As soon as the Honse waa In Committee of tbe
Whole, Mr. CoRQKS, of Miehigas, raised the point of
order that tfae bills on Ae eaiendar must be eonsid-
•red in order.
The CoAiii oTermledthe jyolntof order on tbe
ground that the House bad votad to go into commit-
tee oa the Tariff bill specially.
SPEECH OF FERKAICDO WOOD.
Mr. Wood then proceedM to open the debate.
He said : Tbe highest power of Government is the
power to tax, tbe power to arbitrarily demand of
labor and j»«perty a pordon of their earnings and
possessions — to take by forced levy a proportion of
the people's industry, and of the property whieh it
has acquired. This demand upon the people is con-
tinnons and unrelenting— it is now and forever —
from it there Is no escape. In approaching the con-
^deration of a proper nse of this'asthority, I am not
wmdsdfnl et its Importann. It will he remem-
bered thst taxation simply consiBtB in imposing
ezaetious for the support of tbe Qovemment. It
was not designed tbat any other considerations should
enter htto the dlseharce of this trust. The burden,
whethor geaat er small, Waslto be borne by the whole
people open principles of eqaity and equality. Tbe
proper adjusting of taxation so as to avoid oppres-
sions upon the oae side, or advantages on tbe other,
has en^iged the thoughts of statesmen for many
bumdred year*. Tbe l^ted States has sever had a
permanently established ^stem by which to mrocore
revenue and to regulate its commerce with other
nations. Kor is this sinjinlar, in view ef tbe fact
tbat we have befin nnder^lng r«mark3U>le changes
sfaice onr national Virtb. W'ithinthe century of our
existence tfae policy that was desirable ^t one time
would have been very unfortunate at another, and at
no tune have we been so drenmstaneed until now
tbat we could adopt political economies purely Ameri-
can. That period has arrived.
From Julv4, 1789, when tbe first Tariff law was
enacted, until 1676, there were passed 128 laws in
xslsAion to the levyiac and coUection of duties. In
tbe law as it now stands are many of the provisions
of statutes passed over 50 years agO; some in tbe
laoguage as oHginidly passed which yet remains,
wfafle other* have beeJu modified and amended and
conseqnentty exist in part. Tbe revision of tbe Kev-
eeue laws in 1874, instead of etrnpUfying and con-
solidating tibe then existlikg statutes, served rather
to complteate, eonfose, and add in many respects to
tfae previonsly existing difflenlties. But this was not
the greatest objecdon to that revision. It aetnally
changed many of tbe rates levied as duties, thoogh
purporting to be only a codification of those already
estanUsbed by law. Tbe laws as they now exist are
inainlv the creation of the last 15 years. Within the
f>erloa of 1861 to 1876 were passed 108 laws re-
ating to the tariff and the collection of duties.
Neatiy every one of these acts was the creation
of some special domestic Interest, or to subserve
some partisan purpose. The present tariff laws are
Bubje^tothe folIovInK obieetfons: 1. They com-
prise 2. 162 artioUs, each subject to duty or to offl-
elal etaminstion at ports of entry. 3. Tbe dutiable
articles era, in many cases, subject to compound du-
ties; that is, the ad valorem and the specific com-
bined In the same article. 3. The ambiguity of Ian-
gtiage aod liabllltr to doubt aa to construction, and
the complex rates of duty tend to HtigatlOB, loss of
revenue, and injury to the importer. 4. They have
the effect to inerease the duty levied In an Inverse
ratio to the value of the merchandise; thus, tbe
luxuries of tbe rich sre less highly taxed
than tbe neceesltiee of^ tbe poor. 5. Tbelr high
rates encoora^ fraud by undervaluations of invoices
and other evasions, and also by smuggling, thus
indndDg perjury and other kindred eriioea, 6. Qn
many articles tfae duty is made prohibitory, or so
high as to yield little revenue, while they operate so
as to enhanee the price of the imported artleie which,
as a oonsaquenoe, enhanees the cost to the consumer
of the domestic-made article. 7. Thus, a loss of
revenue followe, neeessiteting additional taxation to
make np tbe deficit. 8. The large, compllested. and
cnmbeMOBe ne^tpery reonind in Its administra-
tion u made the pretext for the employment of a
great number of subordinate offldala who. in general,
i»re paiitean rstaluen, with little work, bat great op-
portnaities for profit. 0. The expense of c«Uection
Is equal to about 5 pet eent» upon the snm eellect-
ed. whieh. if added to the kisa by eoUeetlon and false

on any medicinal preparations. Tbe female portion
of his honse cannot even go Into hysteria without
paying a tax of 20 per cent on asafetida that may
be required to quiet their excited nerves. On his
■sugar he pays a tax of at least 60 i>er cent* As for
the clothing he and his famllv uses, let me enumer-
ate the tax separately : On bis wool hat he psys from
60 to 80 per cent; on his fur hat from 45 to
60 per rent; on bis suit of w^oolen clothes some 55
percent; on the leather for Ms boota and shoes, 25'
percent; on his hosiery, 35 per cent.; on his wife's
and daughter's common alpaca dress he pays 65 to
70 i>er cent; on spool-thread, 70 per cent, and on
the needles, 35 per cent If I were inclined to pur-
sue these topics further It would take np too much
time ; snfBce it to say thst the furnishing of his
child's cradle and the coffin in which he is finally
burled pay a direct tax or are enhanced in price by
onr tariff system.
^e bill has bnt one list— the dutiable one, and no
compound rates, the duties being either ad valorem
or specific, and the latter as far aS practiesble. It
comprises 247 classes of articles and 875 articles,
against the large number In the present law. It has
no free list as saeh, all articles not enumerated
being free. The simplification will, I may
safely chum, rednce the cost of collect-
ing the revenue at least 15 per cent
Another considerable saving will be gained in tbe
authority given to the Secretary of the Treasury to
consolidate the collection districts, now the source of
a large and unnecessary outlay — many of them are
kept up at several thousand dollars' eipen.'w with-
out producing any return whatever in the way of
duties collected.. I estimate the saving in these two
items at 20 per cent., which will be equivalent to
$1,300,000. Mr. Wood estimates that the amount
of revenue to be collected under the new bill will be
$140,620,138, or a gain over 1877 of $9,663,645.
Even should the revenue be less, he argues that it is
time taxes should be reduced, snd thnt the finances
of the nation will pei;mit of a reduction,
Tfae principal opposition to a change in tbe tariff
emanates from the friends of extreme protection to
tffe manufacturing' interests. Whatever may have
beeu tho excuse originally for the government^
bounty to the then infant manufacturers, it does not
now exist and should not bo continued, because the
necessity for it no longer remains. The alarm
felt by tbe iron and steel manafacturers,
•will, he thinks, cease upon an examination
of the bill, and figures are given to show the
improvement in the export of Iron and steeL- From
an examination of the statement of duties received
from manufacturers of. wool and woolens during five
! years, he concludes that leading mauufacturers can-
i not much longer claim Governmental bounty. If
j they were entitled to protection oriffinslly, there is
little foundation for It now. In cotton coods, lie
1 says, it may well be supposed that the time is not
far distant when we shall shut out Briti.th cotton
goods permanently from our market While con-
vinced, from a report by the silk manufacturers,
tbat tbe silk industry of the United States is abnnd-
antly able to take care of it*elf. and that Government
favor should do longer be continued to it he does
not propose st this time to make the Application.
Tbe general policy snd scheme of the Mil is to re-
8u.*«ltate American commerce, to re-establish onr
position as one of the foremost maritime nations of
the world, and by this means to develop to its full
extent the material resources of the nation. Will
not this advance the manufacturing interests of the
country f It Is only necessary for us to have the op-
portunity to establish reciprocal trade with all the
nations of the world in order to show oursuperior-
itv. Certainly, American Industries, so far as man-
ufactures are concerned, have reached so high a de-
gree of perfection that we can have nothing to
fear. An exclusive policy, like that which the pro-
tective system implies. Is not applicable to modem
times. No nation now lives within itself. Science
has served to unite the human race into one common
family. As wo have set tbe example of free political'
institutions and the recognition of the rights of the
people, holding up to other nations the example of
f^ee political thought and action, it Is our duty to
lead off in the free interchance of productions and
the removal of those barriers which serve only to
dwarf human energy and to keep fettered In a subor-
dinate condition the manual power of labor.
In the course of Mr. Wood's speech he sent to the
Cleik'sdesk and had read a letter from a manu-
facturer of hay-forks at Jackson, Mich., stating tbat
that industry required no protection, and that It
was able to compete with foreign manufacturers,
not only in the home market bat in tt:e foreign mar-
kets.
Mr. CoKGiB, of Michigan, asserted that the work
of the firm was done by convicts, who were paid at
the rate of 32 cents a day.
Mr. Wood, however, declined to yield to Mr. Con-

DETAIL— THE BILL FINALLY PASSED BY
40 TO 19.
Washixgto:^, April 9.— In the Senate to-day
the Pacific Railroad Sinking Fund bill came up as
nnfinisbed business. Mr. £bMr^*DS, of Vermont,
addressed the Senate, combating tfae idea that be-
cause the railroads had proved of benefit in the
United States they were entitleo to extraordinary
consideration. He dissented entizely from Messrx '
Matthews and Hill as to the nseonstitntlonslltyof j
tbe proposed legislation ; the words of the act were '
"not less" tlum 5 per cent, should be paid In. Did
not this, coupled with the reserved right to alter, ■■
amend, or repeal, imply that more than 5 per cent.
could be required to be paid inT He next
referred to tbe question of what constituted
net earnings and defended the definition given in
the pending biU. The fact that by the act of 1864
the proportion of Directors to beapiwinted by the
President on behalf of tbe United States was changed
without question, showed a recognition of tbe right
to alter or amend. If the corporations should succeed
in bresking down legislation at tills time, it might
be that tbe time would come when the voice
of ttie people would be heard and affairs placed in
the hands of impartial men. The provision for tfae
payment of the obligations of the corporations was
purely an administrative a(t and required a different
asplieation from time to time, as the circumstances
cbauged, as new roads were built, as new men came
Into the directory, or as the stock was run up or
down by tbe bulls or bears. Vet it was proposed to
tie the bands of this sovereign administrative power
—that gave these nomopolies — behind its back
for 22 years; nearly an entire generation. He
did not think tbe gentleman from Maine would, upon
refiecUon, thinkthiswas anentirelyBafe mode of pro-
cedure. He ssid that it might hsppen that tbe stock
should pass into the hands of foreign holders who .
might bedevil tfae roads and bring about a state of
things where there would be no net earnings, the in-
terest of the first mortgage bonds would not be paid,
and all would go down in value. Yet the Senator
from Maine, in tbe innocence of bis nature, suppos-
ing everybodv was as honest as himeelt would fold
bis hands ana allow himself to be put into a bag and '
placed in the custody of the Union Pacific Railroad.
Mr. Blaink, Interrupting, said the Senator had
referred to Jay Gould, and said —
Mr. £nuuND.s said he bad not referred to Jay ;
Gould or any other individual.
Mr. Blains insisted tbat in a reference to a stock-
holder who held a lar^e quantityof the stock, and
who was painted blacker than he really wa^^
Mr. Educnds said there were many men who were •
not so black as they were painted. There were Sen-
ators who were not as black as they bad been
painted in connection with stocks. He bad
not indulged in any personal references,
and rarely referred to individuals by name.
Recurring to tfae proposed amendment, Mr. Ed-
munds said' It would cut off all the net earnings
which were due since the roads were built: there
had never b*en a dollar paid in on account of net
earnings, although the companies bad^>een going on
declaring laree dividends ; snd, as the present bill
jeft tbe back accounts where they were, noth-
ing could be done after their hands were tied
np. He argued that tne decision of the Su-
preme Court bad simply defined what tbe law
now was, and tbat it had no bearing on future legis-
lation ; It made clearer, by defining tfae present law,
what new legislation was.
Mr. Blaine proposed to amend his amendment so
as to remove every objection to it raised by the Sena-
tor from Vermont, by adding a provieo that the an-
nual amoaat to be paid, in addition to net earnings
and qne-balf transportation, shall never be lens than
f600i,000, and nothing herein contained shall be
construed so as to wnive any existing claim of the
6oTemment against the roads.
Mr. VoosBSXS, of Indiana, advocated the amend- '
ment proposed by Mr. Blalue, and contended tbat the !
pi»sant bill Went beyond the constitutional limita*
ttena m to the tUtt ef eontreet
ISx. Bows, of wlaeonsln. supported the UlL
Mz. SATOir aald that tinder his obligations aa a
fienator h* eo^d vote fbr neither of the bOU pro-
posed. Tfae JpdiolaiT bin asserted a powar that did
&ot helb^ t6 the leidsiettve branch of tbe Govern-
theonmipotaneeofOongret. Heeonsldendltelffi
as violative of the Constltation.
Mr. 3IrrOBKLU of Oregon, eontended that th*
decision of the Supreme Conrt covered the gnmn&
that a sinking ftmd could not be ereated withoot Ae
consent of the companies.
Mr. RiLJU of Georgia, insisted tbat tba STTSWHS
ment between the Government and tfae roadawae
exactly a contract, and nothing more-
Mr. Bargext, of California, said Goncresa had
sppropriated $5,500,000 for the Mississippi jettiaB.
Tbe Pacific Railroads were tfae Mlsalssippt of the P».
Hfic States. If there severe measures were •ttioscad.
the burden would fall oa those txav^ia^ over tfae
roads or sending freigbt over them-
Mr. Howx tald the PacificRoads werejtistaeBaeh
the Mississippi of the ii^ast as the West If eem-
merce was suppressed. It would be tfae commezee oC
the East as well as of the West
At 5:30 o'clock a motion to adjourn waa made by

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL COMMISSION— i
RULES AND RATES RECOilMENDED TO
GOVERN THE DEPARTMENT IN CONTBACT-
ING FOR MAIL SERVICE.
Washingtn, April 9.— The report ©f the
Special Commission on Railwsy Mail Transportation
was presented to both Houses of Congress to-
day. It Is 5i(;ncd by D.iniel M. Fox and
George A- Bassett, Postal Commission, vrho
recommend epaca and speed instead of weight *
as the basis of compensation, reserving the
privileges contended for by the Post Office DeiNut-
ment and giving to the public better mail fadlltiea
than ever before. The expendicures under the
rates recommended win liot be m.t:eriaily increased
r-ver those of the present year. Kor the purpose of
obtaining data upon which to form an opinion aa to
the fair and reasonable remuneration that should be
paidthe railroad companies, for transporting the malls,
the comroi&ijion b&siJt;s ha\ir.c hnd commnuicatioa
with the managers of lending railroad lines of the
United States, prep.'ired and sent tutbema printed
form covering soeh items of inforraalion aa were
necessary to ascertain .the earnings and cost per
linear foot of car trsn^yorteJ. The tabulated
returns show h variation of from 2.83 to
10.4 mills in the openrting expenses per
linear foot of train, while the receipts range from
3.t>4 to 101)0 mills, shnwins that the profiton
eome roads where rates are low is larger than on
other mads where rates are high. and. therefore, tbe
adoption of an average rate appHcaM** to all lines
thiit wonld give to each route a uniform percentage
of profit waa fouud to be impractic-sble.
The commission have RsctTtained tbe cost per lin-
ear foot of train per mile, as deduced from tbe ra-
ports of 113 of the representative railroad compa*
nipR. and performing about 50 per cent of the trans-
j^orting bosiness of the country, and find that the
cost thus obtained is bs^ed upou sn average sjpeed ol
21^ miles per hour between termini and 2<i milat
per hour running speed, as shown by The foUowiag

T!»e commission say they are convinced that the
postal-c^r system has now become a necessity ic
conducting the basiness of the country, and that tbe
pui'lic at larce would demand it> continuance e^m
if the expenses of tbe Government were largely in-
creaMd thereby. They, therefoie. recommend tbe.

The SQbstitate for the Bnckner Treasnry-
oote bill is only a trifle less mischieroos
than the original measnre. Instead of
making the notes which it is proposed to
Bubstitate for the national bank eironlation
B legal tender for all import duties, their
use is now restricted to the payment of one-
third of snoh dnties. The existing green-
back oircnlation ia in this respect to be
pat on the same footing as the new Treas-
tay notes. This interminable tinkering at
the currency is but an earnest of what we
-might expect were the entire note oircnla-
tion of the eonntry made to depend on the
caprice of Congress. The commercial dis-
tress and uncertainty which would attend
the destruction of the national banking
system which the Bnckner bill wonld bring
about, would be enhanced by a chronic
state of commercial paralysis whenever
. Congress was in session. Every conserva-
tive interest in the eonntry demands the re-
lease of the circulating medium from the
incessant interference of reckless innova-
- tors in Congress ; it is only the speculators,
the wreckers, and the demagogues who have
anything to gain by the conversion of the
Treasury into a great bank of issne, whose
management may be affected by every
breath of public clamor.
By a vote of 40 to 19, the Senate has
passed the Thurman bill relating to the
indebtedness of the Pacific Bailroads. This
is a triumph of principle over trickery, of
the public over the jobbers who proposed
to defy the demand that they should make
provision for the repayment of their
debt to the Government The Senate
has shown an amount of dilatoriness
over this measure, which was calculated to
-excite the gravest suspicions, but its final
passage by two votes to every one opposed
to it is highly encouraging to those who are
still disposed to regard the Senate as capa-
ble of -Statesmanlike and benefi-
cent legislation. The extent of the
triumph must be measured by the force of
the infloences brought to bear against the
Thurman biU. A lobby acting under the
guidance of Jat Oould was not likely to be
deficient either in pertinacity or resources,
and when Gould went the length of com-
pelling his newspaper to come openly to his
aid in opposition to the bill, it is obvious
that he spared neither money nor promises
to accomplish its defeat. Probably, one of
Gould's reflections over his discomfiture
,^111 be l&at he might have made a better
investment than in the purchase and main-
tenance of a newspaper.
Those members of the House who gladly
joshed through a bill placing Gen. Shields
on the retired list, with the rank and pay of
Brigadier-General, are now calmly consid-
ering whether they had any right to enact
any such law. .The Senate has declined to
hurry the bill, and an examination may
prove that the generosity of the House was
inconsiderate, as well as hasty. There are
several requirements touching the retirement
of commissioned ofllcers, none of which seem
A cover Qem Shields' case. Ab officer
may be relieved on his own application
after thirty years in the service, or by the
action of the President after forty-five
years of serviee, or at the age of 62, or
by a Retiring Board when incapacitated
for duty by incident of service or other-
wise. In all oases the service must have
been continuous ; and it is expressly pro-
vided that the .' officer shall b« retired
on the actual rank held by him at
the date of retirement. Gen. Shieij>b'
service has not' been continuous ;
and as he resigned his rank long ago, he
has none on which he can be retired. Nor
eonld he be retired on account of a wound
received in the Mexican war, as that inci-
dent of serviee was not severe enough to in-
oapacitate him from holding a volunteer
rank much later. Finally, officers are re-
tired by operation of eristing laws, and
Congress cannot legislate a man into the
Army for the sake of.let^slating him on the
r*tiredlist.

while, on the other hand. Lord Derby's re-

denunciation of ther Goveinniant poliey: as
'< plunging England into a canseleaa war,"
h&ve naturally enraged the anti-Boaslaii
press of london, the PttU HdB Oaeeltsin
particular demanding a dissolution of ifKt-
Uament, " to order to terminate the anarchy
which has been paralyxtog the Government
for two years." "Hie quietly argun^ntative
tenor of Prinde GoBTSCHAKoyp's reply. to
Lord Salisbvby'b circular augurs well for
the temper in which Russia is prepared to
meet new obstacles to her plans. The va-
poring of her semi-official press has been
evidently a mere feeler to test the opinion
of Europe.
The Tammany members of the Board of
Aldermen have promptly come to the sup-
port of Senator Hooak's bill, which pro-
poses to create a commission for the laymg
of macadamized pavement on Fifth-avenue.
The commission would, of course, do the
job by day's work, and would furnish the
Tammany Aldermen with their proper
quota of labor tickets. Commissioner Gajip-
BELL tosists on letting out such work after
public competition, and has a decided ob-
jection to allowing his department to be
run by the ward committees of Tammany
Hall. So the Tammany Aldermen, a^ttog
on the only set of motives which they
can understand, propose to obstruct every
effort made by Commissioner Cakpbell
to give the City a fair day's woric for a fair
day's wages. Behmd the Aldermen is, of
course, the ubiquitous Mr. Kelly, to whom
a BepabUcan Legislature propose to hand
over the control of the mtemal management
of every department of the local Govern-
ment. It might be well for Mr. Kelly to
hold his hand for a little, lest so plain a
revelation of how despicable a trickster he
is may shame even the Legislature toto go-
ing back on their bargain.
It appears that the Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Cities has become
convmeed that the so-called Municipal
Salary bill needs amendment. A letter was
read to the committee from Mr. Oswald
OTTENDOBrEB, Stating with much force and
directness the objections to the bill, which
have already been made by The Tikes.
Mr. PoxEBOT accepts these' objections as
well taken, and it may be assumed that the
bill will be amended m accordance 'with
them. It is to be hoped that the Council of
jPolitieal Reform, or any other local organi-
zation which may undertake to present
at Albany the views of New-York tax-
payers, will follow the Itoe marked out in
Mr. Ottenoorpeb's excellent letter. Any
attempt to bolster up Kelly and his' allies
in palming oS under the guise of reform a
palpable fraud on the people wonld subject
its authors to imputations not at all likely
to improve their further usefntoess.
MS. WOOD ASD IBE TARIFF BILL.
Mr. 'Wood's speech on the Tariff bill is a
statement of principles and conjectures, not
a discussion of the details which are essen-
tial to an understandmg of the measnre ana
its probable effect on domestic todnstries.
It is not a speech that will reconcile oppo-
nents or mdicate the wisdom of the 'Ways
and Means Committee. Generalities are a
poor apology for a sweeping scheme of
change, totroduced at the very time when
those whom it concerns are least able to
bear it. The arraignment of the present
'system is easy enough, and as an argument is
unanswerable. The inordinate list of dutia-
ble articles wonld alone suffice to prove the
folly which under the pretense of
protection has crippled our indus-
trial resources, and burdened trade
with vexatious restrictions. The com-
pounding of dnties, their 'unequal
operation, the fraud that springs up under
them, the enormous cost of collection which
they entail, their comparative unprofitable-
ness, the injury they inflict upon commerce,
— are all undeniable. The protection that
amounts to prohibition defeats itself, and
the encouragement to native industry which
culminates in monopoly violates the only
conditions that render its defense possible.
So far Mr. 'Wood is right. But the fitness
of tariff legislation depends to a large ex-
tent on other considerations than those de-
rived from the mjustice of existmg laws.
"The nation," Mr. 'Wood declares, "lies
weakened, and prostrated, and sick almost
unto death." Therefore, it is not a fit sub-
ject for heroic treatment. It may not be
amiss to round off a speech with the
saying that "we are now brought face
to face with the solemn considera-
tion of the present, and the great
duties of the future," but, as a praotioal
matter, the country ivas never less pre-
pared for legislative changes affecting its
busmess toterests, and never less tooltoed
to accept abstract reasons f pr interference
with struggling todustries. This feeUng
must not be oonf onnded inth the ordinary
protectionist cant. The oaose of it may be
found to that eondition of embarrassment
and depression which Mr. 'Wood describes,
and to the consequent unwillingness to en-
counter needless disturbing forces or to
assume a stogie unnecessary risk.
Had Mr. "Wood thought less of his repu-
tation as an economical reformer and more
of his usefntoess as the head of the 'Ways
and Means Committee, his course, we
think, would lufve been different. Instead
of attempting to reconstruct the tariff, he
should have atogled out for correction its
more flagrant enormities and aimed at Qie
encouragement of manufactures by an en-
largement of the free list. Simplification
to a few conspicuous instances would have
been the best possible preliminary to lai^;^
effort Bt a more propitious period ; and the
free admission of raw materials now sub-
ject to heavy duties would have sttora-
lated toduatry without exciting formidable
opposition. A tariff bill of this unpretend-
ing eharaeter might not have satined Mr.
'Wood's ambition, but its success wonld
have been the best testimony to his sagaci-
ty. As the case stands, we have an ambi-
tions effort that will almost eertunly end to
failure. Not that the new Tariff bUl is, as
a whole, a bad bill, or one that, to otiier
eiienmstanees, might not have been ad-
vantageoosly Resented. It is a decided
improvement upon the measure repoitsd

d^^MuAMe Iw^ires are itSS\ ntsteed^aotk-

throogbont there is a strange lack of ooBr-
sistent principle; 'but the committee has
pEofltedby the eritieiam called forth Iqrthe
emde draft which wm .pnblished, and has
presented a bm* whicli, taken altogetiier, is
B^neh better thBn existing laws. So mueh
wesay'to prevent miaaiqpreheBsioiL titt
trouble is, that the committee has attempt-,
ed to do a great deal more than it eaa h<^e
to accomplish this session. The mere fact
that the bill will be angrily opposed by b
hoist of diverse toterests mi^t, to a certato
state of a&irs, imply only want of shrewd-
^gsstotheohoiee of tactics. Just now, it
impUes ui opposition that will . be tosur--
mountable exeept in the presence of a zeal
that has notyet been developed.
There can be no donbt that the cotton
and other of our most important todnstries
have reached an excellence thM should
remove all dread of competition. Their
products wiU not suffer from foreign rividry
to any market, whether with reference to
qusflity or cheapness. In these instances
protection has 4one its work. In otihers it
is still required, not in the sense that to-
terprets protection as monopoly, but as a
means of averttog disaster from gro'wtog to-
dustries, and fostering that combination
of skill and capital which has brought
cotton and cutlery up to their present
standard. Bi|t manufacturers of all elasses
are at present timid. Call their timidity
groundless, if you like. 'We ha-^e to do with
the fact, which deserves more " solemn
consideration" than Mr. 'Wood yesterday
gave it, 'Various' disturbing influences are
already in operation. Manufacturers hardly
know where they stand or what they may
safely do. Th^ universal shrinkage to v^
ues has curtailed their resources. The
want of confidence fetters them on
every side. They share the general anxiety
to regard to the financial future. They
await the more complete revival, of trade
wbieh only the improved condition of the
people can produce. To complicate matters
by adding the uncertatoty tocident to an en-
tire reconstruction of the tariff is to subject
industrial endurance to a str&to which it is
ill prepared to .endure. The same remark
applies to trade as disttognisbed from man-
ufactures. We have a general unaettle-
ment which, affecting flrst the Customs rev-
enue, tocreases the difficulties of the trader,
already qmte as heavy as he can bear. Mr.
'Wood's reply is, that the reform of the
tariff will hasten the' improvement of our
commerce ; but the genera] proposition
makes no allowance for the exceptional im-
pediments that block the paths 'of the man-
ufacturer and the merchant.
The estimated effect of the proposed
legislation upon the finances of the Govern-
ment, as presented by Mr. 'Wood, differs
widely from that put forward upon the au-
thority of Treasury officials. Mr. 'Wood
holds that the cost of collection will' be re-
duced, and that the fear of a deficiency as
a result of lower duties is without fonnda*
tion. He evidently recognizes, however,
the expediency of providing for a less for-
tunate state of things, and urges the sus-
pension of contributions to the sihktogfnnd
as more than adequate to any conttogency.
The proposition, which may be regarded as
the alternative to a revival of the tocome
tax, will not tend to restore the confidence
of the public creditor to the Democratic
treatment of the debt. The reilnposition
of duties on tea and «offee is not htoted at,
though obviously preferable to either of the
other plans for covering apprehended loss.
If Mr. 'Wood really desires to protect from
the tax collector the poor man's breakfast-
table, with what propriety can he increase
the sugar duties for the benefit of the
Louisiana planter t
OXfB FOOTHOLD IN TUB SOUTH PA-
CIFIC.
In a few days the Adams is expected to
leave the Isthmus 'mth Mr. Lb Makba, the
Samoan Ambassador, and Mr. Colkesnil,
his counsel, for the Samoan Islands, there
to permanently raise the American flag to
the ceded port and harbor of Pagopago.
The tidtogs of the successful completion of
the treatywere duly transmitted to advance,
and presumably have by this time reached
Samoa — m season, no doubt, to anticipate
the diplomatic flank movement of Sir Ab-
THUB Gordon, Governor of Fiji, for the an-
nexation of the Samoan Islands as a British
colonial possession. The totrinsie impor-
tance of the naval and supply station ac-
quired by the treaty, and the precedent it
creates to our historyas a nation, will cause
its practical attainment to be watched for
with curiosity asd toterest.
Lying directiy in the line of the commer-
cial steam route from San Francisco to Aus-
tralia, possessing a very fertile soil, havtog
many products desirable for export, and
peopled by a race above the Polynesian av-
erage to habits, intelligenee, and desire for
improvement, the Navigator or Samoan Isl-
ands may have no mean future before them..
Popular toterest to them, however, to our
conntiy, was not much excited until a few
years ago, when Mr. A. B. Stedibxboeb
hadhis curious adventures to Samoa. This
roving diplomat, not, we believe, an
adopted citizen, as some, judging from his
name, have supposed, bat a native of Penn-
syl'vania, of the German-American 'stock
there, went to Samoa to 1873, and staid
several months. Two years after, when
King Kalakaua, of the Sandwich Islands,
visited this country, Steihbebosb went
back with him to San Francisco to the Pen-
saeola, aaA proceeded thence, to the JVueo-
rora, to vist Samoa a second time. The
Tusearora rematoed to the harbor of Apia
about two months. Steinbebobr framed
a constitution for the Islands somewhat after
the model of the Hawaiian, which the peo-
ple seem to have accepted, he becoming
Premier. A Pariiament 'was created, with
an upper and a lower house, like the
English and our own ; and to an election
held by the chiefs of the ei^ idands, he
threw his influence to favor 'Of Mauxta,
the one chosen King. As lender, the to-
dnstrious SteinBeboeb claims to have
clothed the people, built sehools, made
roads, appototed Governors and magis-
tratM, organized a Polioe force, introduced
American implements of agricultnre, and
set up a printing-press, which he had
brought f^om San Flraneiaeo. 'Whether

Meanwhile Secretary Fish, who had given
a very dold'shcHilder to Steinbeboeb, found
that the Eng^h Ck>veminent 'was willtog to
acquire control over Samoa to the same way
as it had done tritii Fiji, and, furthermore,
that the Samoons fancied American protec-
tion more than English annexation. ' No en-
couragtog steps, however, were taken by
Mr. Fish ; but last Autumn Messrs. Le
Maxxa a^d Colkesnil came to 'Washtog-
ton, and soon the treaty of mutual advan-
tage was drawn up tha^ has recentiy been
ratifled*
If we look at the text of this treaty, we
find its second article providtog that all
Government and merchant vessels of the
United States shall have the privilege hence-
forth of enteriag any port of the Samoan
Islands ; that our naval vessels may
also establish to the port of Pagopago,
and on its shores, a station for coal and
supplies both for our naval and commer-
cial taartoe, " and the Samoan Goveniment
will hereatter neither exercise nor -author-
ize any juriadietion within this port adverse
to such rights of the United States or to re-
striction tiiereof." The merchant ships are
to trade freely 'with cargoes of any sort,
without import or export duty, (this latter
is the provision of article 3, ) and only a ton-
nage duty of one-half of 1 per cent, per ton,
aotnal ineaswement. shall be charged on
the entrance of suan vessels. Bnt, by an
exception, trade to fire-arms and munitions
of war to the islands is made subject to
i«Cnlations by the Governments.
The fourth article of the treaty provides
for the settiement of local disputes between
citizens of the United States by th.e
United States Consul at ApiB, and
for fk jotot settiement by him and by
the Samoan authorities to oases of disputes
or offenses between our citizens and the nsr-
tives of the island. The punishment shall
be accordtog to the laws of the country of
which the guilty person is a native. Arti-
cle fifth provides that to . any dispute be-,
tween the Samoan Government and any
other Government to amity with the United
States, our CK>vemment shall "employ its
good offices for the purpose of adjusting
those' differences upon a satisfactory and
solid foundation." 'We cite this pro'vision
because it has been said that our <jh>vem-
ment has undertaken a protectorate of So- -
moa. This fifth article is the only one that
could give color to that toterpretation, and
it will be seen that nothtog of the sort has
been done.
The sixth article assures to our Govern-
ment and citizens all rights granted or here-
after to be granted to any other Govern-
ment or citizens to Samoa, and the seventh
fixes the treaty term at 10 years, with pro-
vision for its continuance thereafter until
the end of a stipulated notice of revoca-
tion. As, therefore, without "entangltog
allitmces ". or any troublesome pledges, a
valuable naval and coaling station has been
acquired to what Admiral 'Wilkes long ago
pronounced the best harbor of the South
Pacific, we mBy look with satisfaction for
the practical carrying out of the treaty
now to be attempted.
BBWITTS BEMEDT.
There are two subjects to which Con-
gress, when all others fail, returns 'with
perennial delight. These are the ventila-
tion of the hall of the House, and the con-
dition and disposition of the old hall. It
may seem inexact to say that Congress de-
bates these two subjects; for the House
natiirally has the lion's share of both mat-
ters ; both come legitimately within the do-
mato of tiie House of Representatives. But
the Senate, by some of those togenions
twists of parliamentary law which every
lawyer tmderstands, is occasionally sble to
take a tilt at the questions which have en-
gaged the attention of the lower branch of
Congress ever stoce the new -wings were
added to the CapitoL The hall of the House,
— that is to say, tiie large hall to which the
House holds its sessions, — is a sort of cave,
or excavation, to the midst of a vast
architectural pile. On its four sides
this room is surrounded by todosed corri-
dors, one above another. Overhead there
is a double ceiltog, chiefly oonstruoted of
glass and iron ; the lower ceiltog is a flat
skylight ; the upper one is a skylight with a
steep roof. Between the two is a large
space in which a man can walk upright.
Therefore, the inner -walls of the hall are
from ten to fbrty feet from the outer walls
of the building, to any given direction. The
Ii{^t by day falls through the glass doable
roof. By night, gas-burners between the
two roofs Aower down radiance and head-
ache.' The blessed air of heaven is sucked
toto air-«hafts to the basement, carefully
sifted, c|ried,'and pressed, and pumped up
into the hall, through the floor. The holes
through which ^e air is delivered to the
members are closed with wire screens to
prevent the members from falling toto them
on nights when cold tea is kept on draft in
the cloak-rooms.' These apertures are used
as spittoons by the legislators.
It will be seen, then, that the assembled
wisdom of the nation is secluded to a cave,
m excavation, -with so jealous a care that
the wtods of heaven may not visit its cheek
(and there is a great deal of it) too roughly ;
and light and air are delivered under so
re'strstoed conditions and through so jeal-
ous bBitiers as suggest nothing but a pror
teetive-tai^ nie old hall, iriiloh is the
hall occupied by tite House before the com-
pletion of the new wings, is a well-ventilated
and weQjit^ted apartment. Light and Bir
are totnodnced by'what might be called
natoMl BMBBs,'the windows at the sides
openlBjj; direeiQy to the outer atmospherei:'
As this latts chamber was planned as
long ago as 1818, and was finished to
1826, -tiie eostiier stroeture for which
it was' abaadoned to 1860 ought to

Q<7ixoYA]>AKa.vas a BepresmtatiTe from

does notshow any such thing. - It is a reUef
to go from the steaming, snpeiheated air
of the House -wing toto the eoel and sunlit
clumber where tiie earlier Representatives
made la-ws. The near hall is tocmsted with
gilt gingerbread-work, and is tawdry -with
finei7. The oI$ hall has the severe dignity
<^(ddttoieB and old manners; its dome is
BBstatoed by noble columns of Potomac
marble, or breccia; 'the ceiling is paneled,
and the general aspect of the place is, or
would be, classic. Stationed around this
hall, at irregular .totervals, are the marble
and bronze statues -which have been set
there 'by several States of the Republic, to
answer to an tovitation from Congress to
place to this modem valhalla the effi-
gies of two . distinguished citizens of
each State.' . The collection might be
much worse than it is. But the hall is
ghastiy with all this white marble statuary
Bad its white marble floor. For all practi-
cal purposes, the apartment is a -wilderness.
It is a mere passage from the rotunda to
the hall of the House. The .pages go there
to munch their peanuts. Oooasiohally, a
wayfarer glides behind a marble column to
put a furtive flask to his lips; and the in-
curious visitor gazes upon the statuesque
ghsstltoess -with the air of one who cannot
make up his mtod to ask what all this
means. It was considered a happy thought
to turn the fine old hall toto a sort of monu-
mental tofirmary. Ever since the new
-wing had been occupied by the House, the
continual question had been, 'What shall we
do -with it t In New-York we should have
given it over to be an armory. But, after
years of lonely neglect, the chamber has
been partially occupied by marble and
bronze statesmen and heroes.
Mr. Abram S. HE'wrTT, who has a rare
faculty for sadden mventions, has brought
together the two questions of the ventilation
of the House -wtog and the use (or disuse) of
the old hall. He proposes that the House
of Bepresentatives shall -hold its business
sessions to the old hall, and that the newer
hall shall only be used for general debate
and oratory. He would have the statues
carried out toto the rotunda, and benches
like those of the British Honse of Commons
fitted up for the seating of members. The
desks left to the present hall of the Honse
could be used by members for their daily
work, and when a division of the House is
called, members could be summoned to their
posts by the sound of a gong. Practically
this would be maktoga sort of great com-
mittee-room of one hall, while the other
would be a general rallytog-place for special
occasions. 'We do not understand that
imperfect ventilation is the only ob-
jection to the present hall of the House. It
is complatoed that the large number
of members scattered over so considerable
an area produces much confusion, to the
midst of which it is almost impossible to
transact busmess. Members -write letters,
read newspapers, gossip from desk to desk,
hobnob -with the lobby, and pay no atten-
tion to the -work of the day. Mr. Hew-
itt's plan is to take away from the members
their papers, writing facilities, and- tempta-
tion to idleness, set them down hard on
plato benches, compel them to mind their
bustoess, and take away from them the all-
pervadtog lobby. For there would be no
chance for the totrusion of a lobby to the
proposed working department of the House.
This, it will be seen, is applytog a severe
diseipltoe to the easy-gotog, loose-talkmg,
and todolent Honse of Representatives. It
is a doubtful experiment. Yet somethtog
must be done to save Congress from drif ttog
toto a maddle of imbecility. How would it
do to give Congress a littie more brains T
BALD BARBERS.
. Mr. "Weller once asked, to a triumphant
tone, as if assured that no one could an-
swer his question, " 'Who ever saw a dead
donkey V The fact that dead donkeys are
never visible ' must have been kno-wn for
centuries prior ^to the birtb of Mr. 'Weller,
and yet no one had e^er called attention to
it. No sooner' had that great philosopher
formulated the fact than scientific men be-
gan to mquire toto the reason of it. They
have pursued the inquiry ever stoce, but
they are no nearer to the answer to-day
than they were thirty years ago.
Another mystery quits asprofoqpd as that
of the disappearance ' of dead donkeys has
existed to every civilized community for
centuries, but .has hitherto apparenUy es-
caped all notice. 'Who ever saw an aged
barber t Of course, the answer is, " No
one." 'What then becomes of barbers who
have passed the age of vi^grous manhood f
Scientific persons are at liUerty to give
their whole energies to the task of findtog
the true answer to this question, but it is
extremely doubtful if ever, -with the aid of
the best transit instruments and the entire
resouroesof the calculus, they will succeed
in fimding it. Nevertheless there is an
answer, and it is -f ery possible that a few
words', dropped a day or two stoce by B
partially toebriated barber have furnished
a clue which will lead us to it.
There are two axioms which are the very
foundation of the tonsorial science. These
are, first; that no barber is ever bald; end,
second, 'that all barbers have tonic for sale.
Superficial thinkers may jump to the con-
clusion that barbers use their own tonic
and hence avoid baldness. This, howeverj
is obviously untrue. ' No man among the
millions who have been forced to boy tonic
at the edge of the razor has ever known-the
slightest effect to follow its use, and hence
it is tocredible that tonic should have any
fertilizing effect upon the heads of barbera.
Moreover, it is -the ui\iform course of nature
thBt the men who nlannf actor e patent reme-
dies for Bny disease whatever — todnding, of
coprse, loss of hair— never dream of
personally using them. They know top
well of what these remedies are made, and
have no desire to waste their time to nsing
those which are simply toert, or of peril-
ing their health by ustog those which may
prodnoe' misceUaneous and unforeseep ef-
fects. The univsrsal prevalence of hair
among barbers is thus not due to their al-
leged use ol topic, and we mnst search fur-
ther to order to ezplato It
All barbers are men under the age when
the human hair begink either to torn grey
or to disBPP^Br altogether. ' The absence bf
baldness is, of course,' dne to this fact, and
the question," 'Why are barbers never bald %"
ipves'plaee to the'qnestion, "'Why are aged
barbaos navot seanT".. This is the real mrs^
tMX'whieh'oiwfraBts us, and wldehit is our
duty to solvB. Do barbers tovariaUy die
at the age of, say, 35, or do Half retire
from business at that age and liva'npon
their savings t To neither of these qnes-
tio|is can an afSrmative answer be returned.
Barbers do not die ' at a certato fixed age,
or our death records wonld show the fact
Neither do they retire and live on ..their
money, as do our retired journalists and
other millionaires, for if sneh was their
habit the retired barber would be freqnent-
ij met, whereas there is no man living who
has ever seen sneh a phenomenon. AU the
public knows at present is that a perpetual
succession of young and hirsute barbers ply
the razor and sing the praises of tonic, and
that to some mysterious way they disappear
as soon as they leach the age of greyness
and baldness. The reason why they disap-
pear is readily seen. A bald oragreybar-
'ber -would be a Cfnnplete refutation of the
alleged virtues of tonic. No man would
put faith to tonic if it were offered to him
by a barber -with grey hair or no hair at all.
Consequently, the middle-aged barber mnst
disappear if the sale of tonic is to be mato-
tatoed.
'We have thus shown why aged barbers
are as tovisible to the public as are dead
donkeys. There remains only a mere ques-
tion of detail — ^the question how this ditop-
pearanoe is effected and what is its precise
catnre. It is upon this subject that the re-
cent remark of an intoxicated barber to the
effect t^at he had "done the asylum out of
two quarters' tonic," throws a lurid light.
"What is the as^nm to which he -was ex-
pected to contribute, and what is meant by
the mysterious expression, " two quarters'
tonic T" Let us answer these questions
-with a hypothesis. Enormous sums of
money are annually made by the sale of
tonic, and a large and costly asylum coold
easily be inamtatoed upon a very small por-
tion of the profits of tonics. Let ns suppose
that all gray and bald barbers are confined
in an asylum far from the Icnowledge of the
public and that aU practicing barbers are
compelled to pay quarterly a part of the
money received from the sale of tonic to
the Trustees of the asylum. The myste-
rious remark just quoted is thus made per-
fectly totelligible. The drunken barber
meant to 'say that for two successive quar-
ters he bad withheld his proper contribu-
tion to the asylum, and had greedily re-
tatoed all the money which, during that pe-
riod, he had received from the sale of tonic.
This bypothesis not only'explatos an other-
wise unintelligible rema^ bnt it explains
the disappearance of all aged barbers. A
hypothesis that explains a certato set of
phenomena must be believed until some bet-
ter hypothesis is put forward, and it is not
too much to say that the hypothesis of a
barbers' asylum supported by sales of tonic
is precisely as credible as the hypothesis of
gra-vi cation.
The necessity of selling a great deal of
tonic to order to support the asylum of aged
barbers accounts for the superhuman energy
displayed by barbers to selling that famou
liquid. The next time a reader of The
Times is urged by his barber to buy a bottle
of tonic let him answer thatjie would prefer
to read the report of the Trustees of the
asylum before contributing even mdireetly
to its funds. There can be littie doubt that
the astonished barber -will at once cease to
speak of tonic, and that the truth of the
hypothesis above set forth will be visible to
his confused and guilty coimtenance.

Albabt, April 9.— The trt*t qnestaOB ot
ae day In the Anemhly was the bOl to ponii
the Incorporation of oil-pipeline eompaniaa- ttU
aBuffalo measure, the one thing upon which th<
Erie delegation, and it may be the whole popn
tion of that county, are united, and about whiet
tiiey are enthusiastic. It is a matter of tht
greatest importance to Western Kew-Tot^ for
if apipe line can be la d from that section to the
aes-hoard, the oil can be transported for 10
eents a barrel instead of $1, whoh ia bow tha
cost of transport by railroad. Kr. AQan, of
Erie, had charge of the biU ; his eoUaacow,
Messrs. Hnid, Day,' Crowley, and laagnm
were -with him, and during the long dabaU
upon the Ull they formed a group whose maa
ner Indicated the deep concern they felt. Mr.
Alvord sraa the leading and In fact the onl;
i>pponent of the biU, bnt he was a host in him-
self. All the controversy was on tha fonrteentb
aeetion, which gave to the companies incorporated
under it the right of eminent domain. VfMi-
ontthia,the bill would have little orno-raloe
in the eyes of its friends, for the Standard Oil
Company, with a prophetic eye for fntnre pipe
line*, has acquired a atrip of land about four
feet wide, circling the City of Buffalo, so that
no pipe Une can get out of it without the conaent
of ttiat corporation. Mr. Alvord inslstad that
the provision -was flagrantly uneonstitatioDal ;
but he apparently had the ' House against him,
and after spendtog the greater part of the
morning in debate, the bill was Anally ordered
to a third reading. The City of New- York ia
exempted from its provisions. The fate of Hm
bill is still very donbtf oL
'When the Pipe-Une bill had been disposed
of, Mr. Alvord asked tiiat the Snpply biU.
which was on the order of third readinj;, might
be Immediately pat upon its passage. Accord-
ing to his previous piomise to allow the yeas
and nays to be called upon such amendmenta
as had been offered to Committee of the Whole,
he mo-ved that the item making aa appropria-
tion for the Westchester Catholic Protectory
be stmck out, and the amendment offered
by Mr. PTescott, of Oneida, maldng an
appropriation of $30,000 for the New-York
State Deaf Mute E8'.ablislunent at Home,
inserted; but he also stated that he was op-
posed to both motions. No debate was allowed,
but Mr. Prescon called for a division of the
question, and the way the vote went was
quite amosiug. Mr. Prescott and his friends
were intensely anxious to get the State aid for
their institation, and the friends of the Catho-
lic Protectory were jnst as anxious to get it for
theirs. Mr. Fish had made the motion to strike
out, and had planned a combination by which
he expected to carry it ; but the Prescott
item broke it up entirely. SeeiUK what
v^ a ; coming In Mr. Alvord's motion, ~Mr. Fish
demanded that the vote be taken on thePreaeott
item first, but the Speaker decided that the
questions must be put in the order they were
moved. The yeas and nays were called upon
the motion to strike ont the Protectory item,
and it -was beaten by 70 to 30 ; then followed
the motion to insert the Prescott appropriation,
and it was carried by 76 to 17. Mr. FiaU was
so mortified at his defeat that he left the
chamber so as to avoid voting for the bill,
which was then passed by a vote of 90 to 8.
Mr. Prescott was -warmly congiatnlated
upon his success, which indeed -waa a
great one. for he had all the heavv guns in the
House against him. The next move of Mr.
Alvord waa to call up the adverse vote bv which
the bill for the bnildinf; of a railroad from Dan-
nemora Prison to the lake was lost, to have it
reconsidered, and it was oaased by a vote of 7iS
to 17. How this surprising change was effected
it would take too Ion;; to tell, and perhaps all
the circumstances could not be told ; but it cer-
tainly was a most astonishing change- Mr.
Beard, the labor seform member, was very
wroth, and expostulated earnestly wit ^ Mr-
Grady, who had moved some amendments to
the bill, and made a short, very sensible, and
temperate speech in favor of its passage. He
pointed ont OtMt as the Superintendent of
Prisons had alr^uly contracted for the labor ot
the convicts in the prison at extremely low
rates, with a proviso that if this road
were built these rates sbonid be mora.
than doubled, the only effect of the
passage of the bill wonld be to bring the price
of the convict labor into closer approximation
with that' at which free labor was paid. If it
were not passed, the same number of men
would continue to be employed, and if it were,
the one change would be to raise the price oi
their labor. Mr. Gai vin tried hard to defeat the
bill, bnt Mr. Grady had all the best of the argu-
ment— in fact, his propositions were unanswer-
able. The opponents of the bill had rested their
opposition to it on the ground of its encourage-
ment of convict labor, and tbey were completely
'beaten upon that issue. There were objections
to the bill of quite another character, and upon
which, had they been raised, its passage migtat
have been defeated, bnt by taking an antenabls
ground they were beaten.
'fhe Senate occupied most of the session to-
day in a long and animated discnssion upon Mr.
Raines' bill, repealing the law that exempts tha
prooertT of clergymen and priesu to the extent
of $1,500 from texation. If any doubt existed
before about the lofty virtue and piety of the
Senate of 1878-9, it must have been dissipated
after listening to the number of eloquent cham-
pions of religion which the discussion brouirht
to the rescne of Christianity and its ministera.
Mr. Sessions, at tbe opening of the debate,
offered an amendment to the bill repealing
all laws exempting church property, to an
amount exceeding $5,000, from taxation, and
ic was against this amendment that the fervid
eloquence of Senators was more particularly di-
rected. Mr. Turner favored the amendment,
wid said that the exemption of ohnrchea from
taxation was a relic of a past age, when eccle-
siastical influences predominated. No good
reason for it existed now, as it had come to be a
serious hardship to those who paid taxes on
other property. Not less than $80,000,000 ot
this kind of property was exempt from toxa- .
tion in the Ci^ of New-York alone. Mr. Good-
win opposed the amendment. Qs was thankful
that this was a question not afteetad- by party
polities. The sentiment in favor oC exempting
churches from taxation had Its origin in
something far higher and hoUcr than party,
and he believed it was as strong to the
public mind now as at any other time. He
shonld grieve to see the day when the tax-
gathenr would be allo-wed to enter our temples
of wonhip to levy eontribntiona in the nama of
the taz-payan. It was a small tmaineao, in his
estimatran, to repeal the petty exemption oow
allowed to men who sacrificed all earthly pro-
ject* to order that they might promote tu to-
tereats of religion. Mr. Ediok also opposed the
bin, and asked Mr. Balnea if the infioaaeesot
churches of his county did not save thaeoomy
tenfold the amount of tax that wonld be remixed
by repealing tUs exemption.
Mr. R-'""- declined to defend the amendment
ottered by Mr. Sessions, saying It was anew and
distinotpronasitioa, not contained in the bill a*
InCrodaeedby him. Aa to repeaUng the etnmp-
tion now aOowed to deixym<n,it waanot only a

BHITB, or CORTLAND COUNTY — BRIBERY
AKD UAI.FEAS4KCE IK OPPICE ALLEGED.
Albakt, April 9. — The Governor this mom
<9g cave a heartnx at the .Exeeatlve Chamber to
Judge Abtam P. Smith, County Judge of Cortland
^onflty, against whom charges have been pf^ferred.
' Boa. H. 6. Ballard, Judge Shankland. and Hon. S.
D. HUliday appeared for Jndge Smith, while
S^ T. Wright, ex-District Attorney of Cortland
County, Irving L. Palmer, and Blley Champlsin
appeared in snpport of the charges. The Governor
(aid he had looked into the matter and had satisfied
himself that the course ordinarily adopted
by the Executive upon the leceptiou of
charges was sot the true course. He
tslt that it was the duty of the Governor, when a
ludicial officer, elected by the people, had charges
preferred against him, to investigate suoh eharges
and satisfy himself as to their weight before de.
cidins to send them to the Senate. The case of an .
ofieer elected by the people was different from that
of an officer &ppointed by the Governor and Senate.
He did not see how a Governor could <>onscientioQ8ly
■end to the Senate a reeonuneDdation that an elee.
tive officer be removed without first investigating
the ehar^e.
: Kr. Wright said that those who preferred the
^charges hod supposed the same rme would be fol-
jlowed in this as in othercases. They were not ready
itoco into the ease to-day.
' The Governor replied that be would not be able, so
zi^ar the end of the aession ot the Legislature, to in-
vestUace the charges himself ; he would necessarily
he compelled to delegate their consideration to a
Beferee.
'Mr. Wright then briefly stated the charges upon
which the removal of Jadge Smith was salted. Mr-
Hsliiday replied. CBlllng attention to the fact that
z^ost of the acts which were the subjects of . charges
had bean committed many years aso, and that Judse
Smith bad been twice re-elected in the meantime.
Be said the thirteenth, nineteenth, twectleth, twen-
tr-flrat, and twea^.eighth ehatgea were to the effect
that Judge Smith had refused to draw certain papers.
1ft repW- he would refer to tae Prxndle ease, in which
it had been decided that a Judge was not required to
draw aneh papers. As to the charee coneevmng the
taking of Illegal fees, it was not verified, aad ^onld
be relegated to the courts
The trovemor, at the conclusion of Mr. HalUday's
areument, said ho was strongly mclined to think that
the bribery charges ought not to be gone into. The
law provided other and better modes of investigating
Bach charges. The present proceedings were to aa-
rarisin whether Judge Smith should be removed for
malfeasance in office, not for crimes In obtaining <^-
flee- He was also inclined to think that charges
based on acts alleged to have been committed
b^ Jodfe Smith daring a former term of oflSee ought
QOt to be considered. After hearing further argn-
menr, the Governor held, subject to the brief of
Ihe prosecution, hereafter to be presented, first, that
the charges that the Judge had bribed voters should
he seat 10 the Grand Jury and not to the Senate :
second, that the cfaarRe tliat the Judge had ree^ved
bribes sboulu be made nroie definite witbiu 10 days
OT be stlnek out entilely ; third, tbat he was strong-
W of the ouhiiou that removal should onlv be asked
for for malfeasance in office, and fourth, that he was
■ttoDgly of the opinion thst rbargei should not be
gone into in regard to acts since the commission of
wbi^ the Judice had been twice ra-alected. The
haaring waa then adjottmed.

Kzw-TOKK, Apra 8, 1S78.
Bon. J. JC Ponuroy, OAatrman 0/ tA« SmaU Com-
mitta on Citia. Albany, N. I.:
Bat: Unavoidable engagements will prevent me
tzQva visiting .Albany to-oiorrow, as I intended to do,
to remonstrate against some of the provisions of the
•o-eallad -'Mnnleipal Salary I>U1" paasea in the As-
sassbiy on Tuesday, the 2d inst., and which is now
bofaratha Committee on Cities of the Senate.
I thersfore take the liberty to call yotir and yonr
eoUaaguea' attention to some of the provisions and
defects of this bill, which, in my opinion, make it the
most dangerous measure in relation to our City that
!ua been before the Legislature during its present
wasiou.
Tbe bUl is called in the Kew-Todc newspaper re-
poru " The Municipal Sahnry bill," and the imptes-
ilon is orevslent that it intends to reduce tlie sal-
. tries of ail, or the most, of our City officials. The tact
is, that the bQI is far from attemptinjr to accomplish
nsch a result. It provides simply thst the agsregate
unoont raised by taxes in such (that is our) City for
the year 1879 and subsequent yean shall be at least
$2,000,000 less than tiie aggregate amount reooired
to be raised by tax in said City for the year l878.
Phis con be accomplished without touching the sal-
tries or fees of our City officials in the
'east. It is expected that our oontribnUon
M the State taxes in 1S79 will be about ySOO.OOO
eas than in the present year. For another mUlion
ihe tax levy can De reduced by the pesssge of a bill
sow before the Zjeglalature, whieh pzovmea that tbe
vrindoal capital of our Municipal delit, beconung
lue m the future and payable frmn the proceeda ot
assa, shall be redeemed by the avsilaUe means of
the sinking fund. Seveild hnndxed thousands of
. lollan can be secured by curtailing or failing to
nake appropriations for necessary unprovemeuts,
Ruh aa the repairs of pavements in^the streets in tbe
ower pan of the City, and the balance, if necessary,
ma be provided for by estimating the revenues of
die general fund at a moeh htgner sum than they
»n or will, in all probability, produce.
Thus it will be seen tbat the requirement to raise
>y tax $2,000,000 less in ttia lutnra tluui we do at
srsaent will not aboUah the sinecures nor retrench
she salaries of our City officials, which no doubt, in
lofoe instances, are exorliitant aad out of uroportion
u»the sarvicea which the redpienla are able or ex-
pected to perform.
To secure economy in this direction the liill should
be ameaded to tlie eifect that the appropriatlona for
■alaflss and feea to be paid directly or indirectly from
the Oily TrsesaryshaU. be reduced in tlie future to a
leytaia amotmt or pereentageirfthesnm appropriated
at piessut for such purposes. Witbotn sneh or a
similar provision, tile promise thst the Mil will re-
daee the expenses ot our City Qovammant is a fraud
•rHsh eanaot even claim te be new or
orlglnaL The same bait was used in the
Tweed charteiv when ,tbe promise was made
that the taxes to be raisad in the future
la oar City should not exceed 2 per cent, of tbe
assessed valuation of tiie taxable property. This
praaise was one of the most dIeetlTe mssai to re-
eosellat]: J opposition to that notortoas laatnment.

immediately after tbe passage ot the act, to revise
tbe appropriatlona for 187S and to reduce the

Thete are, no doubt, other very aerloqa objeetions
to the bin and otiier amendmenta, the adoption of
wbieh would tend to make it what it pretends to be.
My intention waa to call yonr and yonr eoUeaguea'
attention to two of the most ciaring ' and dangerous
defects of the bill, and hoping that yon Win give to
this matter that earnest consideration wUeh Its im-
portance tor the welfare of our citizens deserves, I

Aa tbe result of the hearing on the Salary bill, the
impreaaiou is general this evening that the commit-
tee will amend it in several important particulars,
the principal one being to compel the rediutiona to be
made this year, on or before the 1st of July
next. Whether the committee wQl insist on
•2.000,000 being taken from salaries alone is
doubtful, for it seemed to be agreed on both sides
that so large a reduction on that oneiitem of City ex-
penses alone could not be made this year. The com-
mittee wUl probably insert iimitatioiis and safe-
guards which will remove from the bill the features
to which objection is now most strenuously urged.

THE P7BAMII) POOL TOURNAMENT.
FINE PL-IY LAST EVENING — THE SECOND PAIR
OF HATCHES — SEXTON DEFEATS SL0B80N,
AND CTBILLE DION BEATS WILSON.
The second pair of matches in the champion-
ship tournament at pyramid pool took place yester-
day attemoon at the Union-Square BQliard Booma
in the presence of several hundred spectators. The
games were between John McWarble sgi^nst Oeorge
{Vey, and Samuel Knight against Joseph Dion.
Tbe play was not specially interesting. Me Warble
defeated Prey easily by a score of 11 to 3. and
Knight scored 11 against Dion's 6. In ths thirteenth
game Knight wbitewaahsd Dion by 61
points against 0, and further distinguished
himself by makiag during tiie gmnes sev-
eral fine double combinations. The evening
matches were between the two favorite ytmng bil-
Uard players, William Sexton igaiDit Qeorge Slot-
son, and Cyrille Dion against Clsrk E. Wilson.
There was a large attendance of spectators^ mainly
tutensted in seeing the first mstch, to
jtidge how well good three-ball players could
manipulate IS balls. The first half-dosen
gamea were rather uninteresting, their distinguishing
features being some delicate safety play ontne groups,
keeping the pvramid almost unbroken at times for
six or seven innings. Slosson slao made a numberof
pretty long poeketa, and Sexton two or three in-
tricate fine shots, cutting his object ball
out from among ugly dusters. Slosson
won four out of tbe first five games, and then Sexton
began to work. In the ehihth game, when Slosson
had made 11, Sexton took chsrge and " pooled " An
75 pointa, playing the "big ringer" on
the last shot all the way down the table.
On the tenth game the score was even, five
games each, and from this point np the play became
interestine. In the fifteenth game Sexton showed
really fine dashing plsy, and whitewashed his oppo-
nent with a score ot 72 to 0, thus for the first time
leading in tbe score, which now stood 8 to 7
in his favor. He won the next game also, by 67
points to SloBson's 9. The seventeenth game devel-
oped some nice play on both sides, and though
Slosson had the best of it all the way throngh, he
came near losing throngh sheer hard luck. Both
men now played anxiously, but with a friendly good
nature townnl each other that older players might
well emulate. As Sexton's confidence g^ew, how-
ever, he played boldly and well, and Slosaon lost the
ease which marked his earlier play. Sexton won the
eighteenth aad nineteenth gamea and the match in
two hoora five minutes. The following is the scote :
Sexton..O 00101011101011101 1-11
Slosson.. 1 110 1 0100010100010 0— 8
Tbe second match between Cyrille Dion and Wil-
son was opened by Cyrille, who pooled aoalnst Wil-
son's 49, the latter playing with his usual
stolid reserve. In the seeond game he made
49 to Dion's 0. and then some extraordinary
aafety play lasted through five innings, tbe cue bsU
being almost ''troxen " m a bnnch of seven or eight
balls, which each man was careful not to break, but
wusoa atlast seoxed the game. Both men played
rapidly throngh these ud ' severs] succeeding
games, eseh breaking the pyramid on the lead
and generally ^ying the balla wide apart. Iii the
fourth game Wilson played with great dash, and
pooled to Dion's 5 points, picking the balls
out of tbe pack very cl«uily. Tbe fifth
game waa very slow. In ths sixth WH-
Bon played very finely, and on a cushion kiss
f>layed the lensth of the table, "pooled" by pocket-
ng the 13 haii, and won the greatest applause of the
evening. In the eighth game Wilson made but 17
polnts,'but in the tenth,' wtipu Cyrille had made 47
points, Wilson pooled ia a single run of
fast i^y. Nothing of interest occurred
np to tbe twelfth game, when Cyrille
having already bagged five or six balls. Wilson
"got one of his spells on" again and pooled on half
a dozen of the lilg ones. Play was dull until the six-
teenth game, when Wilson pooled on 70 points to
Dion's 3 the score of games standing 10 to 6 against
the former, who had to make the remaining five
gamea of the 21 to win. but Cyrille went out on the
seventeenth. The score is aafollowa:

Eastbaiotoh, Mass., Tuesday, April 0, 1878.
The boys of WilUston Seminary, at'Sast-
hampton, Mass., not to be outdone by college
students, have been doing a little hating. Only, in.
stead of taking the lower class man, they have tried
it on the PrlndpaL In 1875 the death of
Samuel Wllliston, the founder of the school,
occurred, and in 1876 Dr. Marshall Henshaw, who
bad been Prindpal of the sehool for 13
years, was depoied by the new Board of Tr'uitees.
Dr. Henshaw, although somewhat stem and crabbed,
was a teacher of unusual ability, and had bron^bt
the school to a high degree of prosperity. His govern-
ment, however, waa not all that could be dealxed, and
on account of this and some minor msttexs, it was
thought thst a change would be benefidal. Dr. J.
M. Whlton, ot Lynn, formerly Rector of the Hop-
kina Grammar Sehool in that town, was made Prln-
dpaL His aceesdon to the office was marked by a
general overturning of the established order, and the
inauguration ot an entirely new regime. Although
some of his innovstions were Wise, a large part were
thought to be iU-advlsed, and, as schoolboys nre pro-
verblallr conservative, , he immediately became un-
popular. He brought with him Dr. B. P. Keep, of
Hartford, opee Consul at Athens, and Roewell
Parish, of Worcester, wham he installed as
masters of the elaislcal and sdentifie departmenti^
respeetively, placing them over the heads of the old
teachers, some of whom had been there for yeara.
This, of course, created coniiderable hard tseling
among ths Faealty, but despite this they have aided
him in every way in thslr power. One ot his most
obnoxious deeds waa aa order in regard to factory
giris. The manntaetnring interests of East-
Hampton include the miDs of tbe National
Button Company, whieh were started liy the
founder ot the seminary, and the employes consiit in
la^ part of comely Anietlcan girls from the conn-
try. Ot eonrse, there were some black sheep, and
some trouble had occurred from their association
with a few ot the school's wUdsr pupils. The Prin.
eipal made a aweeping order, absolutely f oriilddihg
the atudenta to associate with any of tbe fac-
tory girla. As tbe wives of many of the
leading dtizens of the town were formerly
fsctory girls, this wss thought to imply a dur on the
charaeter of tbat class ; and a grsat deal of ill-feel-
ing prevailed among tlie townspeople. One of the
prominent men of tbe town took up the cudgel for
the girla In a letter to the local paper so effectually
that the order become ipraetieally a dead letter.
Thla is but one instance out ot many, and the his-
tory of the last two years has, consequently,
Deeu a continued lerles of petty insnlu
and aunoyancea to the Faculty by the students.
All this Hl-humor culminated Saturday night, wbeu
several of the students went to the Pmdpal's house,
and, 1^ a plentlftil use of paint, converted the two
large pillars ih front into barber's poles, while the
front of the house was decorated with barber's signs.

to the school fund, may be paid in conpana. Xbe
General Assembly, aa it anxioaato brtiig abo^a
crisis, left the Treasury empty. The lunatic asy-
lums, institutions of learning, and the penitentiary
are running on credit. More than one-half ot the
incoming taxes will be paid in coupons; the reddus,
if paid in money, will not be snffideat to mdntkin
government and publie schools. What then will be

now endure, which will be greatly intendiled

men wMo have pdd their capitation tax can vote, and
outside the ranks of those who are aetnally property,

If he had made his appeurnnce on tbe streets he

of Mr. Baron's was 'to excel, if posdblc, Oartier's
feat. At the dose of the afternoon Mr. Baron

Harrisbubo, Penn., April 9.— The Senate
Committee to-day eondudedits investigation of the
facU in the matter of the eolleetion of the Union
BaUroad and Transportation Companies tax by
Simonton and Olmstead. Tbe last wltiiess was ex-
amined .this forenoon, but the report wiH
not be mads public until next week. Among
thoee called today were Mr. William
H. Thaw, Preddent of the corporation,
and Hon. Bobert W, Maekey, ex-State Tieasmer.
Mr. Thaw, who was examined soms time ago and
waa recalled thla morning, oorriborated Mr. Olm-
stesd snd contradicted Wnilam Barnes, Secretary of
the eompany, in his statement that Mr. Olmstead had
spoken to him ' [Thaw] in the company's office in
Pittabnrg on the subject of delinquent taxes due
the Commonwealth from the Union Bailroad And
Transportation Company about the lat of Jan-
uary, 1875. Mr. Thaw sUted positively that-
he never held snch a conversation with Mr. Qm-
atead. Mr. Mackey's testimony was important Only
aa aiding in esublishing the fact that in accepting
the check for 95,000 as a fee for services which
were performed by Sbnonton A Olmstead, who were
handsomely compensated. Attorney-General Xiear
aeted aeeordlng to pxeeedant estaoliahed - by
former oceupaata of the podtion. Mr. Maekey
also said the services of a man eompeteut to attend
pnmerly to the duties ot Coiporation Clerk in the
Anditor-Oeoeral's ofBce were worth a great deal to
the Stste, whieh eonld afford to pay a salary of
gl5,000 to a competent man to attend carefully to
the business. Mr. Maekey thought it was a vety
narrow question whether uie State could have col-
lected the Union Line tax tbroagh the courta, and
had he been Auditor-General he would at aV time
have given 10 per cMb to any man for 90 per cent,
of money the collection ot wbieh was in doubt.

aptctat dvatdt ft) Ut IfncTart Tlwut.
Newport, B. L, April 9.— At the State elec-
tion hdd laat Wednesday many colored voters did
not take any interest in the matter and kept away
from the polls. The reason for tjieir action waa ex-
plained to the Bepnbliean City Committee of this
place to-night, a letter being read from Mr. George
T. Downing; who is the leader of the colored wing ot
the Bepubliean Party in Rhode Island. One reason
given was because tlie General Asasembiy had voted
not to iegalixe the intermarriage of the whites and
blscks. The other and more iniportant reason was
because tbe election of the Bepubliean candidate for
Governor was to be taken as an indorsemeht of
President Hayes' policy, whieh policy, ih their opin.
ion, was an utter disregard of the rights of the col-
ored people, whose interests were cdnsldeied
only on election dav, and who were not offered any
of the " loaves and fishes " by the party which they
had served so tdtbfnlly ever dnce its organisation.

THE COAL COMBINATION.
REPORT OP THE INVBSTiaATINQ COMMITTEE
OF THE NEW-JERSEY LEQISLATUBE—
NOTHING UNLAWFUL FOUND— THE COM-
BINATION A PRAISEWORTHY AND BENEV-
OLENT INSTITUTION.
The following Is the text of the report just
adopted by the committee recentiy appointed by the
New.Jersey Legislature to investigste tbe alleged
now coal combination :
Tbe committee appointed by the House of Assem.
bly to inquire into and report as to an alleged unlaw-
ful comUaation among producers and carriers of
coal, te enhance the ntice of that artide, beg leave
to report that your committee examined witnesses
and otherwise Investigated the said matter. We
have been unable to find proof thst any railroad
eompany chartered by this State owns any coal lands
or bits any connection with the coal buslnefs except
as carriers thereof J nor, so far as your committee
has aaeertained, have the managers of any rdlroad
■of this State entered into any arrangement or agree-
ment to not transport at lawful rates any eoal that
may be offered to them tortranaportatlon, and that
aUot themare ready and willlngto transport at lawful
ratqs sll eosl that may be offered to them for trans-
portation. A verbal understanding haa been arrived
at between certain owners ot anthradte eoal mines,
' dtnate In- Pennsylvania, as to the proportion in
which tbey shall respectivdy contribute during tbe
present year to supplying the eod which the market
will take. So far aa yonr committee baa been able
to learn, no llmitatiota hss been fixed or agreed
noon as to the amotmt which shall be mined or put
upon tbe market during the present year, the object
seeming to be to send forwanl all thst can be sold. In
.thla your committee disoover nothing unlawful.
Should this arrangement be perverted, misused, or
abused so aa to be unlawful and nnjust in its opera,
tion. the eoorta can, in that event, apply the proper
corrections and remedies. At present your committee
peredve no need tor legidatiim upon the snbjset. It
sppeared to your committee that, for more than a
year past anthradte eoal at tide-water has not sold
lor enough to pay for the labor employed in minieg,
transporting, and marketing the coaL To the owner
of the coal in the ground the price ot/soal at tide-
water has seemingly afforded no compensation what-
ever: Tbe wages paid to laborers in ths mines and
in the tranaportation departments have, from tbe tes-
timony elidted. been so small tfaafit is and has
been dllBeult for those laborers to subsist tb«nselves
and tbeirfamiliea- Tbe transportation eompuiiea have
in most eases been anable to pay any dividends
to their itoekboMeia. ma in many instances no in-
terest to the boId«* ot their bondL This low-priced
service is wearing out the roads and rolling stock and
bringing no fnnda to renew them. This is an nn-
'hedthy conditiou of alfairs and cannot be long oon-
tlnued without fixiandai destruction to all engaged in
it No company or Individual can long cont&nethe
sde ot its products at less toaa their cost witiiont
reaehing bankruptcy ; nor ia the opmmunity really
benefited by having the necessaries of life furnished
at stioh rates. The production, transportation, and
marketing of eod furnidi employment to an immense
anmber of industrious people, and any condition of
affairs which deprives those people of employment,
or, it they have employment, compels them to work
for beggariy wages, beeause it ia not in the power of
their employers to pay any more. Is injurious to the
wboleeonuntinityand-not to be favored. It Is just
and reasonable tbat those who own eod In the ground
ahbnld have a fair and reasonable price for their coal
when sent to market, and that those who mine and
carry that coal to muket should recdve fdr and liv-
ing rates of remuneration therefor. Dpon these eon*
siderations your committee pray to be discharged
from fuHher consideration of the subject.
Bespeetfully submitted.

A DEUOORATIO MAYOB ELECTED IN JERSEY

MAYOR OP HOBOEEN-^HE ELECTIONS IN
PATEESON.
The ebarter elections in Jersey City and Ho-
boken passed off very qnietiy yesterdky. In both
t&ti^% tbe vote polled wasverrU^t. At midnight
the returns were so scattered and those received
came in in so bungled a shape that it was impossible
to sscertam the result with certainty. Henry J.
Hopper, Semocrst, is elected Mayor over Mayor
Seidler by a large majority. In tbe First
District William Clark is elected Board of
Worka Commiadoner, John McDonougfa, Fire
Commiidoners, Matthew Edly, -Alderman, Dr.
Naughton to tbe Board of Education. In tbe
Second District Joyce, for Police Commisdoner, is
probably beaten by Patrick Malone, Independent
Damocrat ; Alderman Haley is elected to the Board
of Works, and the straight Democratic ticket is
elected. In the Third District the race be.
tween ex.Podce Commisdoner Edmondson, Repub-
hcan, and John McLaugblan, Democrat, for
the Board of Works, is a dose one. At midnight
McLaagUan had the lead, with two Republican pre-
dnctato hear from. The rest of the Beepubuoan
nominees in the Third District are elstted. The
Fourth Dlstriet^oes Bemocratie, except hat there
is doubt ss to who are the snecessfol candidates
dected. The Fifth District electa sU the Bepubli.'
ean nonrineea; and except, probably, tbe ease of
Kidt, Democrat, for Fire Commisdoner, the Demo-
erata carry the Sixth District.
In Hoboken, S- V. S. Benson was elected Mayor
without oppoaltion, and Robert H. Alberta and tbe
rest of tbe Democratic nomihees are probably eboeen.
In tbe Eighth Diatriet, North Hndsbn, two Oemo-
eratie Freeholders are elected.
Full returns from the Peterson loed election show
BepnhUean gains. The' Board of Aldermen, which
ti now controlled by tbe Democrats, will be evenly
divided between tbe two parties. The Board ot Ed-

Phelps opened the diort dissasslon which washed
by sayins ba had aema difficulty abcmt making a re-
turn to the writ. Ha had reeeiVed a telegram from
tbemeasengfTwhohadgoaetoaeeOoT. Bobinsonto
obtain the ext adldoa warrant. The messenger was
then on his way to tbia Qity with the wsmnt. Hr.
Phelps asked fora reaaoaaUa delay until the mesaen.
fer could arriTa kithaCUy.
CoL Speaeei; tba counsel for Moses, read an affida-
rit by hlhualt, laifUck he stated that his eUeat had
iwes under amst^csfoaday on a diarge of har-
Ins foiged a promtaaory acta forSSlS, with aeemlng
interest at tli»iat»«< l>i per cent, per month. Tha

done nothing in -the matter, and that he
did not belicTe It \ was a ease of haste as
long as Hoses was aaife at PoHee HMidHjuarters.
The connse^said the pioceedlne was an outrage on
iae liberty of the ettiiiin, and that tbe prisonerwaa
BDtitled to bis disctaai'ge. A man could not be de>
?riTed of bis liberty without due process of law.
et here wss' a ease in which the Uberty of the ae-
ensed was at the inaKey,of tha caprice and whim of
a man from another State. Bxich extreme laches or
negligence, he -insisted, -had been -shown aa ahould
operate to prareat the granting of any further delay.
The officer had arrested Mr. Mosaa wlthoat talcing
the pains to go to the Ooremor liefor^iand and pro-
cure a warrant of extradition. Then he simply took
his ease at his hotel while Hr. Moses was loticed up.
Tbe court, insisted Col. Spencer, should not make a
precedent by granting Unreasonable delay is such a
cose.
Mr. Phelps aald eroitlilnghad been done which
eoold be accompllshcfl.'exteptpcrhapa that the officer

tbe proceedings bafore a magistrate. .He simply
a-<ked for time to pte'Mrs a jnopar return to the writ.
That could not be done antU the ofBcer came here
from Albany. After some desultory discossion the
bearing was adjourned to 1 P. M. to-day.

haa been proprietor for 29 yeaik wQ^ go

Charka Wyekofl^ who was succeeded, in 1844, by
'Wmiam Muirhead, who afterward took aa hia part-
ners. O. Clark. In 1849 Mr. W. 6. Scbenek. who
had been a store-boy in Ifew-Brunswiek, found, em-
ployment in the hotel office. He rose m the estima-
tion of his employers, and Muirhead having made a
fortune and retired in 1861, Mr. Schenw bonght
out his interest and became Clark'a' partner. In
1869 Mr. Schenck, by purchase, hecaam tiw sole
proprlhtoT, sod he has since been a popular manager
with a host of twtronj. The Merehanta' Hi^l
haa been the favorite resort of coal and
iron men for years, bnt at the aame
time it has been patronized by all sorts
of travelers. Being in the way of the New-Jersey
railroads before tiw ferries began to take passengers
up town, maziy Kew-Jersey people stopped here. It
haa also been a great resort of New-Jeraey poUti-
elaaa, and it is ndd that one In aeanh of Inrorma-

$100,000 since be came into aole noaacaalOB. His
reaaon for going out is said tobeadaaaaadfor
bif^ier rent trom the ownem of the property- Tbe
rent has not been increaaed at any tmte siace 1861.

A POLZCEMAirS GOOD FOBTDITB.
BE BECOMES BEIB TO A tABOC PABK IN
CAN.U>A— THBOWnrS UP HIS SHIELD TO
TAKE POSSESSION OT HIS NEW HOME.
Michael Deane, a veteran Policeman, recent-
ly attached to the Twenty-sixth Frecinet, has faBen
heir to a large fortune. During his oflicial rambles
near the station-house about a month ago be learned
thKt hia brother, who had lived and died a bachelor,
had made a will, giving him a very valuable farm, sit-
uate in Canada, opposite Detroit, Mich. The news
was subsequently conflrmed in a communication from
one of Mr. Deane's relatlTea. A prospenna village
had sprung up near the farm, and itajtrodaetive.
ness had made its late owner rich. The lucky
officer was not long in malring up his mind as to
what he should do. There was before him an oppor-
tunity to escape night duty and its sttendant " shoo-
files." He surrendered his shield, and his resigna-
tion was accepted by the Police Board on the 11th
of March. Then he went to his home at No.' 377
Eighth-street, and made preparations to take posses-
sion of liis property. He said very little about hia
good fortune in the station-house,- but to Sergt,
Groo he was occasionally communieatire in regard
to tbe great expectations which ditted l>efore
him like shadows in the night. He t<ild the
Sergeant, in substance, that he would become wealthy
yet ; and then he narrated various facta in regard to
the property' to which he has become heir. He also
Soke to two of his comrades— Officem Lynch and
cCord while on bis rounds— of the good luck in
store for him. The monotonous meeting of thetwo
at the boundaries of -their beats or after roll-call
were relieved in this way, bnt then his fellow-patrol-
men seemed to think very little of tlie story uatfl it
became practicallr verified.
In addition to the property left him by his brother,
Mr. Deane. it la said, owns a farm in the State of
Minnesota which has rapidly increaaed'ln value. He
was appointed a member of the Police force in 1865.
He was formeriy attached to the Twentv.first Pre-
cinct, but vTia transferred on Jan. 4, lS77, to the
Twenty-sixth. Sergeant Groo says that he was bom
in Iralaad alMmt 48 years sgo, and is a devoted at-
tendant of the Methodist Chureii.

a dlManee of six milea, and tettin, making a Taap of
12mlles. The wind was blowing fresh from the
south-east, and the tide was the Isst of the ebb.
Both yachta got under way together, and ran almost
aide by sloe tmtil nesr tlie finish, when the Taran-
tula paaaed her competitor, and won the race by about
a lar^tb.- The owner of eadi yacht sailed hia own

THE COLLIBIOir JBT XME BABX KITES. :
The Board of Directors of .the New-York
and Brooklyn Ferry Company met yesterday after-
noon to investigate the dreumstancea of . the col-
lision between the ferry-Dost Superior snd the
schooner J. W. Houston, which ocenmd early Sun-
day morning, by which accident three mea wen
injtned- George Tuttle, the pilot of the
ferry-boat, admitted being but 100 feet from Pier
No. 92 when he sighted the schooner coming vnder
fuU sail from the dip, which waa hidden by a large
bark. He also sdmitted that be rang the Iwli to go
ahead rapidly and gave danger signals. Mr. Qeorge
Pljndle, of No. 13 Second-street, 'Willlamabuig,
corroborated tbe atatemant of Pilot Tuttle:
thou^t the accident unavoidable, but believed
that had the achooner lowered ita jib the '
collision ml^t liave been avoided. Ciq;>t.
Ambrose Conway and the crew of the sdiooner ,
said that the vessel bad not obtained headway, only
from the ebb tide, as tlie wind waa licht : that the
pilot of the tarry-boat mns^ have seen hlo, as the
schooner had her aalla fnHy set, although .not iUled.
The mistaice, in hia opinion, waa tluit the pilot of the
ferry-boat sent her ahead instead of backing her,
and he dedared that lack of judgment or teddeasr
neas only caused the colliaiou, aa sailing craft alwaya
have the tight of way.

aUSTOMS XSTSIEB OATBS.
It does not seem to be generally known
among biorcbants that under a recent order of the
Secretary of the Treasury imnorters and conalgnees
may now swear to their invoicea before entering
them at tbe Custom-house. Formerly it was the
custom to take Use. oath only after the entry had
been peifectad or "passed." Underthe'new system
this cauaedmuah annoyanee and delay, a menliaat
being obliged to watt In line aometimes for an hoiur
or'moia in order to make the neceaaaiy affidavit,
and if any defect wero found in tbe papei% and they
were thrown out tor correctiaa, the tmie ot waliing
waa greatly prolonged, aa lb* person pieaienting
then! was compelled to take his turn over again at
the end of the line. This is now done awaywith,
and there a^iems no further reason why the new sys-
tem should not work satisfactorily In any way.

THE WEEHAWKENQUABBYMTSTEBT
CORONER CRAKE'S BEUEF THAT A MURDER
HAS BEEN OOKHITTEO— THE THEORY OF
SCIdDB-KORE PROBABLY CORRECT.
Coroner Crane yesterday impaneled a Jory
who vtewed tbe remaina of the unknown man found
te the Weekawken quarry with a bullet tfarongfa hte
head early on Monday momteg. Thetakiiic of tes-
timony wiU probably begte to-ni^t. Tha Oeroner
haa parslstentiy dung to the theory that the maa
was murdered. The body -was found lying on Ito
back, one hand on tbe breast and the right arm lying
by the dde, wbUe the legs hong o«er the side of aa
devatten on which the body reated. A pistol tey be-
tween hte riijit arm and hte body. Coroner Crane'a
theory te that no auldde could have laid liimadt out
so canfuUy atterreedvtegthefatdbulletinhte brain,
^e hat, pulled tightiy upon the head, was Reread
bv the ballet, and that It had not been arranged
after death tetedicated by the test that the bote te
the hat and that te the head wen. exactly on a Una.
Coroner Crane thinks that if the ahot had beenfind
bytiiedeceased tha hat wxiald have beenbomed;
but those competent to judge say that it tbaauleida
had hdd Uapbtolaaffer away from hte head aa the
sccomplUbment of hte purpose would permit. 'the
powder would not have Idt any marks. No money
or papen wen found te tba dead maa's -poAeta,
bnttiieyhad not apparently beaa taaipered with.
Than aeams to be no reaaonable gioands for bdtev-
ing that death reaulted from anything daa thansui-
dde. Tbe body te tiiat f^ an nnusaally fias-loaking
Geraian, about 80 yean ot age. Hte tkee had bean
cleanly shaven, and a wdl-trlmmad mnstaeba graced
hte upper lip. Hte head was bdd te front, tbe bate
bdnathiekaat at the crown. Ha was neatty attired,
and everytblng tedicated that he waa a manotre.

■Washinoton, April 10.— What was, all
things eonaidered, the most important Bapnb-
Uean eancna held in Washinfcton this Winter,
came together to-night at the call of the
Congressional Committee. The eaaeos was a
joint one of both hoiues, and was at-
tended bjr 118 Bepresentatives and 23
Senators. Nearly every prominent Bepnbliean
here was present, the only notable absentt-es
Mbk Senators ConUing. Blaine, Ghristiancy,
and Hamlin, and Gen. Butler, of Massaehnsetts.
Mr. Hamlin is oat of town, and why the others
nattfed did not meet with their party is not
known. Stanley Matthews eame late, but
he came nevertheless, and somewhat to
the tnrprise of many of those present Mr.
Hale, the Chairman of the Coneressiansl Com-
mittee of the last Congress, called the meeting
to order, and, on motion of Senator Anthony,
was eontinned as presiding officer. Hr. Conger
was elected Secretary withont opposition. On
taking the chair, Hr. Hale stated
that the object of the meeting was
the election of a new Cona^ressional Committee
to act on behalf of the Bapabliean Party, and
for the consideration of sneh other matters as
might be deemed of Interest to the party and its
organization. Immediatelyupon this announce-
ment Gen. Garfield moved that each State
nominate a member to represent it npon the

ont debate, the several delegations represented

When this preliminary nmtine business had
been disposed of, the meeting settled down to
what proved to be the most interesting portion
3f the proceedings. Senator Sargent was the
Brst to obtain the floor, and introduced the fol-
lowing preamble and resolntion :
Whereat, The restoration of the Democratic
Party to power would be a great national calam-
ity, to avert which all patriotic citizens should
put forth their l>est efTorts ; and
Whertnf, Thousands of Republican officials
throughout the country are under orders from
the President of th»-United States to abstain
Trom participation in some of the necessary
itepsin the great work; therefore, be it
Itetolved, That the Republicans of the two
houses of Congress do earnestly urge the Pres-
ident to rescind his order forbidding the at-
tendance of officials In the executive liranch of
the civil service at preliminary meetings, can-
causes, and conventionsof apolitical character,
and their services npon political committees.
JB^olved, That a copy of these resolutions be
forwarded to the Preddent. '
The reading of the resolutions called out a
slight manifestation of approbation in some
quarters, and of disapproval in others, and then
Senator Sargent proceeded to support them,
in a speech of about 15 minutes' dura-
tion he described the effects upon the
party of the President's famous order, show-
ing that the organization had been entirely
broken up in several States, ana setting forth
that the most eiBcient party workers liad in
many instances been prevented from doing any-
thing for the cause they were go anxioas and
able to 'advance, and that the effect of all
this had been to discourage men who
had been leaders in the party from
doing anything in ' the Interest of its
eontiniuuftee in power. Further, the speaker
declared that the President could not hare dealt
hia party a more destructive blow than he did
in promulgating the order in question. Alluding
to its origin and the original purpose which it
was intended to serve, the speaker intimated that
It was suggested by New-York politicians, not for
the good of the civil service, but for personal
reasons and to defeat political opponents. It
could not be enforced, he deeland, and chal-
lenged the meeting to mention a single case in
which an ofSeial who was bold enough to
violate it had been dismissed for such
action. When these facts were consid-
ered the order xonld only be regarded as
80 moeh bnneombe. If the President had ever
meant to enforce it, he must have been fright-
ened out of doing so when'te realiied for what
purpose hU advisers had induced him to issue
U and when ie saw the effect it was
having and would have upon the party.
Continuing. Mr Sargent said that the Presi-
dent had stated that the object of hia order
had been simply to keep ofSce-holders at their
work, and prevent them from meddling in poli-
ties and polltieal movements that did not con-
cern them. • This might be ao, but the result
had certainly been a different one.
Senator Edmunds followed Mr. Sargent, and
oppoMdtiie resolutlen npon the groondthatit
waaanttbe proper way to accomplish theob-
Jaetdadred. He thought it would be better
to sdeet a small committee to nalt tlie
Pmidsnt and discuss the matter in a
direct and candid manner with him, and he be-
Heved the President would' give such a commit-
tee a patient and thoughtful hearing. He did
not think the President would act upon meh a
Isolation, as he had sigalilod in an minjlstak-
able maaner thathodid not desire anything
bordeites maa dietatfam from membara of Con-
Banator Tellar fospertad the Tiew* prenated
by Mr. Sargent, and a short eoUoqny oeenrrrd
between him and Mr. Edmunds with regard to
privileges of Congressmen in their communica-
tions with the Executive. Mr. Edmunds stated
that Congressmen were at liberty to make any
suggestion to the President, but he was not
botud to listen to them.
Representative Williams, of Wisconsin, op-
posed the resolntion because he was apprehen-
sive that it would widen tbebreach between the
President and the Republicans in Congress.
bi reply to these speeches Senator Sargent
stated that the President had repeatedly a^
snred Republicans of his ability, and willlngnesa
to assist the Republican Party, and that he was
in earnest sympathy with it He did not think
there should be any hesitation about asking the
Presidentto do what was proposed by the reso-
lutioxu
While agreeing with Senator Edmnnds, Mr.
Conger said the President's order hai dpns
great damage to the Republican organltation,
but he did not believe that damage could be re-
paired, or that a resoision of the order could
be secured \>y the passage of the resolu-
tion. Ha wanted to meet 'the President
in a candid manner upon all differences.
He believed the President intended to do what
was right. He was convinced of the wisdom of
his own course, and the only proper way to deal
with him was to make an honest effort to show
him that he was in error.
Representative Keifer, of Ohio, earnestly de-
fended the President He contended that Mr.
Hayes was prepared to do everything that was
proper and right to advance the interests of
the Republican Parfy, but he shcald be ap-
proached in a proper manner. The President
had positive notions in regard to his rights
and dnties, and if Republicans m Congress
d<^red him to work harmoniously with tbem
they must show respect for bis convictions and
not attempt to Interfere with his prerogatives.
He predicted that the President would be found
active and earnest whenever the interests of the
Republican Party were concerned.
Senator Edmunds then moved that the Sar-
gent resolution be referred to the new Consres-
sional Committee, to act upon as they thought
best, and that they be instructed not only to
consult with the President about the matter
under discussion, but in regard to all matters of
party interest
The motion was adopted without opposition,
and then Mr. Price, of Iowa, offered a resolu-
tion which gives the Congressional commit-
tee power to appoint a standing com-
mittee of 11, composed of Senators
and Representatives, to consult regarding the
sourse which the party, as such, should
take npon legislation pending in Congress.
This also was adopted, and then, at a late hour,
the caucus adjourned. Its action is on
the whole regarded as a victory for the
more conservative wing of the party, and the
harmony and good feeling which prevailed is
generally taken as promising the best results.
The committee appointed seems to give universal
satisfaction, though the Cameron element in the
Pennsylvania delegation is said to be dissatis-
fied with the selection of Gen. Campbell, who
is not regarded as one of the Senator's hench-
men.

arrangement by negotiation. The 2T»t«s, while
doing justice to the spirit by whieh it presumes
Prince Gortschakofrs arguments are dictated,
maintains that whatever their value, a congress'
of the powers alone is competent to determine
their validity. It says : " It is not for this
country nor Austria to decide the matter from
its own point of view, and still less Is this the
province of Russia. Probably every powercould
make but a strong case for its own interests,
but no power is adequate to judge of the man-
ner in which other interests are affected, and
we claim that both Lord Salisbury's and Prince
Gortscbakofrs circular should be submitted to
the judgment of Europe."
London, April 11.— Tha.4ff*nM £«sm states
that a short circular accompanying Prince
GortschakofTs reply invites England to formu-
late her proposals.
The Timet' Vienna correspondent remarks
that this seems to point to an' intention of try-
ing to come t« a separate understanding with
England, ad was attempted with Austria.
The Berlin corre.ipondent of the Times says
the attempts at mediation seem to Iiave made it
probable that the powers will only consent to
participate in the revision of the Treaty ot San
Stefano on the same condition as demanded by
England.
The Berlin Poet says Austrian agents have in-
foirmed their Government that Russia has
promised Bosnia to Servia in the event of the
renewal of hostilities!. This news has produced
a bad impression at Vienna..
The DaSy 2e?«jropA'» Vienna dispatch says
Austria seems to consider Prince Gortschakoff's
answer satisfactory, and thinks England can
exact no further assurance than therein con-
tained previous to the congress.
EFFECT OF THE ENGLISH DEBATE.
THE PEESISTEKOE OF BIB WILFRID LAWSON
BEOBETTED — MISCHIEVOUS CONCLUSIONS
LIKELY TO BE DRAWN FBOM THE 64
VOTES FOR HIS MOTION — IMPRESSIONS
IN VIENNA — EtJSSIAN HOLD ON EOC-
MAKIA.
London, April 10.— The Times of this
morning says that it cannot but share Lord
Hartington's regret that Sir Wilfrid Law-
son was not content with the de-
bate in Parliament withont going to a
division on hia amendment. " The whole dis-
cussion," it says, " has materially tended to
clear up the obscurities of a perilous situation,
and it has certainly brought the prospect of
peace nearer than before. But no practical in-
ference can b« drawn from the fact that 64
members of the House of Commons think that
the present juncture is not a great emerzency,
while it is possible a good many erroneohs and
mischievous conclusions will be drawn from it
both at home and abroad."
The debate h;is not had tbe same reassuring
effect abroad, though tbe judgment founded on
the telegraphic summaries thereof may be re-
versed on the receipt of the full text of the
speeches. The speeches of Lords Beaconsfleld
and Salisbury are thought at Vienna to
point to the orobahility of war, and to hold
out small hope of a congress, which is there be-
lieved to be the only possible way of reaching
a paciflc solution. This supposed at-
titude of England is not approved at
Vienna, because tbe Austrian Government
has made no provision for tbe eventuality
of a final failure of the congress project. It is
said, however, that when the necessity of decid-
ing is forced on Count Andrassy he will un-
doubtedly resist Russia's demands and make an
alliance with E.nMand, provided he can carry
the court party with him.
Vienna, April 10.— The FremdenUatt says :
" Peace can only be maintained by Russia
modifying the Treaty of San Stefano in
conjunction with the other powers." The
PrMse considers that England has already gained
a moral victory for herself and Europe.
London, April II, — The St. Petersburg cor-
respondent of the Timet telegraphs as follows :
" 1110 horizon is again overcast. The change is
attributed to the speeches made in tbe
British Parliament, to tbe consequent al-
teration in the attitude of the Aus-
trian Cabinet, and the apparent hesitation of
Germany to act as mediator. It is bt-lieved in
official circles that some of Lord Salisbury's re-
marks on Monday indicate an intention of going
to war.
LORD DEBBT'S SECRET REASONS.
THE UNEXPLAINED DETEBMINATION OF THE
OOVEKSMENT THAT LED TO BIS WITH-
DRAWAL SUPPOSED TO BE TO FORCE AN
ENTRANCE INTO THE BLACK SEA IN CER-
TAIN CONTINGEKCIES.
London, April 10. — Though it is general-
ly considered here that the debate in Parliament
on the address thanking the Queen for calling
out the reserves has placed tbe Government's
policy in a clearer light. Lord Derby's statement
concerning the secret determinations of the
Cabinet which led him to resign is the subject of
much anxious curiosity. It is reported in the
clubs that they are connected with orders al-
ready sent to Admiral Hornby, which are
contingent on Russian movements near Constan-
tinople. Russian officials of rank at Bucharest
declare that they fully expect the English fleet
to succeed in forcing its way into Uie Black
Sea in the event of war. Hence their efforts
to increase the facilities for land trans-
port over lines- not accessible to in-
terruption from the fleet and as far
distant as possible from the Austrian frontier.
They have taken measures for constructing a
military railway between Bolgrad, on tbe newly-
completed Bender and Galatz line, and Ismail,
and also a short line connecting Reni with the
wharves on the Danube.

London, April 10.— A dispatch from Pera
states that 14,000 Russians are sick from San
Stefano to Adrianople, nearly half of them with
typhus, so that the Russian officers regard their
position as very onsatisfaetory.
A St. Petersburg letter in yesterday's Berlin
Norddetdaehe Zeitung, likely to come from an
authorized source, aays : " Turkey cannot be
permitted to remKin neutral in anAnglo-Rus-
lian war. U she allies herself with Rnssia,
she wiR have to give np Constantinople
as a pledge of her fidelity; if she aides with
Eni^and, Constantinople, Galllpoli, Bnynkdere,
and tbe European shores of the Bospboms and
the Dardanelles will be occupied by Russian
troops at any risk. The Russian fortifications
round Constantinople render the conquest of
the ci^ certain, and Russian torpedoes will
soon t«peh the English vessels to keep at a dis-
tance last a return to Besika Bay should be cut
off."
This letter possibly was the foandation for
themmoTS etrenlating in the lobbies ot the
Boose of Conunona lastnl^t that the Russians
had made a formal demand to ooonpy Constan-

TBE POSITION 'of SOUMANIA.
AN EMBAEBASSlNG SITOATION FOE THE
PRINCIPALITY IN THE EVENT OF WAR.
London, April 10. — With the contin-
gency in view of an Anglo-Austrian alliance,
Russia has taken a firm crip on Rouma
nia, and should the Government attempt
to resist her will the country would
find itself in - a most embarrassing
position. Therefore, it is by no means certain
that tbe final policy of Roumtnia will coincide
fully with the present manitestations of popular
feeling. Should the war be confined to
England and Russia, Boumania can man-
age to escape serious consequences, hut
should Austria enter into action, the
principality cannot avoid being crushed almost
irreparably between the contending forces no
matter which belligerent she chooses as an allay.
The Roumanian Government ofiBcially reaf-
firms the correctness of Prince Ghika's reports
of his interviews with Prince Gortschakoff,
when the latter used threatening language.
A special from Bucharest to the Vien-
na PolUical Correspondenee reports that
on Monday the advance guards of
the Seventh and £Ueventh Russian
Army Corps began to cross from Rustchuk to
Giurgevo in order to occupy the line from
Giurgevo to Bucharest. "The Roumanian Gov.
emraent, in o der to avoid alarming the public,
denies that the occupation has commenced, but
it nevertheless is an undoubted fact
A Reuter telegram from Bucharest says':
"' Russian troops, especially artillery, have
arrived at various places on tbe Roumanian
bank of the Danube. They have entered Fra-
testi and command the railway station at Giur-
gevo. They have also occilpied important posi-
tions on the Nvashlov River."
In consequence of the urgent demands of
Russia, M. Cogalniceauo, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, has asked Prince Charles to recall M.
Baltcbano, the Roumanian representative at
Vienna.
In the Senate to-day Minister Cogalniceauo
refused to state what course the Government
would take if Russia demanded the conclusion
of a convention to secure the passage of her
troops.
M. Stourdza complained that the absence of
M. Bratiano. the Premier, prevented the Gov-
emmedtfrom acting, although Russia was com-
mencine her threatened occupation.

London, April 11. — The Standard says
Dr. Butt has announced that he cannot manage
the Home Rule Party while in Dublin,
and as he is unable to devote his
whole time to Parliament, he must beg
to be relieved from the responsibility of the

his determination. He is expected in Loudon
to-day, and bis definite decision, therefore, will
not be delayed.

— CONFESSION OF S. A. CHACE, TREASUR-
ER OF THE COMPANY.
^MSCal X>fQM<eA lo Oe JV«v- Fork Zbui.
BoETOK, April 10. — The business commanlty
WM startled to-dxy bj tiie snQonneement tiist S.
Angler Cfaace, Treasarer of the TJnion Mills, at Fall
Birer. Mass., was a defaulter to tlito amount of
nearly tialf a million dollars, and that the corpora-
tion had suspended. The Union Mills Company was
Yonced in 1869, with a capital of $155,000, and has
done a vast business, employing 500 operattTes, and
tu'niog out 12,500,000 yards of print cloths an-
nually. Its standing has hitherto been second
to none of the great cotwtations in
Fall Rive^ Tbe par value of the stock
was $1,000, and has beea In sneh demand
that it has at times sold as hitth as $8;000 per share.
The last sales, made a few months ago, realized be-
tween $3,000 and $4,000 per share. Mr. Chsce has,
until this exposure, been held in the hiehest estimsr
tion, and the utmost confidence has been reposed in
him by the Directors of the corporation. A few days
af:ooneoftbe Directors, while in a banldng-hoase
in this city, was informed that two notes
of tbe (orporatlon had gone to protest two mouths
aso. The banker stated that it was doubtless owing
to some carelessness on his [Chaee's] part, as such
cases of notes going to protest sometimes occur
tbrongh nej;tect of attending to the matter. But
tbe Director said^ in rather an uneasy manner, that
be didn't know about that. So far as appeared, there
was an abundant supply of money to carry on the
mills, and he certainly saw no reason for any such
issue of corporation paper as was indicated by the
fact of these notes going to protest. Acting udod
the banker's advice, he immediately proceeded to the
Treasurer's house, on returning to Fall Birer, and it
appears that Mr. Chace made confession at once
that he bad made a large overissue of the company's
notes. Astonished at thu evidence of irregularity In
a man who had been so trusted, the Director called
npon his associates in the board and told his story.
, As a result, last evening the Directors held a con-
ference which lasted all the night. A cursory exam-
ination of the Treasurer's accounts was made,
and this was sufScient to show that the Union
Mills promissory notes bad been overis-
sued to an amount between $400,000 and
$500,000. Mr. Chace admitted this morning
that he had forged tbe name of tbe corporation, is-
sued bogus certificates, used the money for himself,
forced the Directors' names on indorsed notes, and
said that if tent to State Prison it would be merited.
and he did not care how soon he went. The method
adopted by ihe defaulter was very simple. Trusted
entirely as he was by tbe Directors, he had full lib-
erty as to the method of issuing the note*.
Not the Slightest check was put upon him.
and he could simply issue them, indorse them,
and dispose of them as he saw fit. It was
not necessary that tbe name of even one of
tbe Directors should appear upon the note, and
so all control of the Treasurer's doings was
virtually abandoned by the Directors. Until
within a short lime the notes of the cor-
poration were held to a large amount by five
banks in this city, viz.: the National Bank of Re-
demption, the New-£ncland Tmst Company, the
Webster National, States National, and First Karional
Banks. These have recently declined to receive the
notes of the Union Mills, and it is believed that it
waa owing to their action that Mr. Chace found him-
self unable to meet the narment of the note which
carae back to Boston protested.
Matters are renorted so bad in eonnectlon with the
rorporation, that parties here have b«en adTised to
inform tbeir friends who are interested In the Union
Mills, to give prompt attention to the matter. The
mills were attached this morning when tbe defalca-
tion became known, by Henry T. Pearso, a Provi-
dence banker, but to what extent is not known. The
lafit financial statement of the corporation showed
property worth $690,836 50; quick assets of
$226,782 37. and liabUiUe!« of $482,319 99, leav-
ing a surplus of $435,298 88. According
to these figures it will be seen that the liabilities ot
tbe company are largely in excests of the capital,
which fact, according to the laws of Massachusetts,
renders the officers and Directors individliallT liable
for the debts of the corporation, so that the chances
would Keem to t>e that the creditors of the company
are iu little danger of suffering any loss from the
defalcation of tbe Treasurer, but that the principal
loss will fall uiKin the stockholders. . The Directors
are John B. Anthony, President: Charles P.
Dring, Holder B. burfee, Foster H. Staf-
ford, Elijah C. Kilbum, William Mason,
and S. Angler Chace, the latter being the dpfanltlng
Treasurer. Mr. Chace resigned this morning, and
tbe Treasurer of the Tecumseb Mills, Simeon B.
Chace, was elected Treasurer of the corporation.
The defaulter was a Director of the Fall River
Manafncturers' Mutual Insurance Company, and the
Fall River Spool and Bobbin Company, and also
President of the Second National BanH. and the Five
Cents Savings Bank. The latter institution, al-
thonch believed to be perfectly snre, to day re-
miired 60 days' notice of withdrawals of deposits.
Until vrithin a few months, Mr. Chace has been
Treasurer ot the Fall River Manufactory, tbe
Directors of whieh believing that he had too many
and great responsibilities, elected another man.
Whetner his defalcation will force the Union Mills
corporation into bankruptcy cannot now be definite-
ly predicted. In years past no corporation had a
stronger credit. It has still a splendid property, in-
cluding tbe new mill just erected, and ought to be
amply able to meet all honest debts.
It is said that Mr. Chace a few days since bor-
rowed $10,000 of H. B. Durfee. Treasurer of tbe
Fall River Manufacturing Company, as a
temporary loan, which must also be added
to his other defakations. Chace was a
member of tiie House in 1865, and of the
State Senate In 1867-8. is "58 years of age, and has
been a resident of Fall River since 1822, was amem-
ber of the Central Baptist Church, and active in re-
ligions and benevolent movements. He enjoyed a
bieh social position, having married a daughter of
the late Dr. Nathan Durfee, of whose will he was
one of the Executors.

Philadelphia, April 10. — ^To-day George
Ellis, the young man whom Benjamin Hunter en-
deavor^dtohavepoisonGraham. the principal witness
against him in the Armstrong murder in Camden,
made tbe following afbdavit : I was septenced for 60
days for assault and battery, and have done
some work about the Camden Jail for the
Keeper; I have been taking up the meals
to Hunter; one day he said to me, **Do
you give this other man [Graham] tbe same to eat
as I get f" I said I didn't know, but I asked
the cook about it. and he said yes.
I also told ihe keeper. Mr. Kennedy. On
Tuesday, April 2. 1878, be managed to whisper.
"Does Graham get the same victuals as I do f' I
said yes. "Tou can make $200 out of me. You
put strychnine in his coffee, and as soon as you've
done it m give you the money." He siud: "He
thotight he was smart blowing on me. but he wasnt
so smart as he thought he was." "Judge" Ware
was sweeping and moviuz about at the time I came
down and told Kennedy and the Sheriff. The Sheriff
told me to say to Hunter that I'd do it. That same
evening I went up, and while the "Judge" was
moving ont some things in the room. Hunter said,
' ' WiU you do it if I show the money !" I told bim I
would, and be said, "Don't make a botch of it
when you do it. Put enongb of it in his coffee or bis
tea. Ill show you the money in the morning, or as
soon as I can get my lawyerto get it for me." I had
told him I bad carried Grabam bis meals. I went up
the next morning, and at dinner, and he said
that he had not bad a cbauce to get
the money. On last Friday I went np.
and HoUis, the keeper, went aw»y for some
cigars. Hunter was sitting there, and he
did not say anything until I sooke to
him. I said. " How about this thing ?
You have a chance and can work it up now." He
said: "Shut up; somebody will tiear you." I
went to the door to satisfy him, and said that
no one was coming, and I said: "Shall
I do it in the " morning." " Oh, I was only joking,"
Hunter replied, I said that was not so. and after
my looking to see if there was anybody coming,
he .said : ** Grabam acted dirty with me. and I
never went back on a man in my life. Yon do the
job and I'll give yon the money. After Grabam Is
dead yon teU Scovel to come right np tome." On
Saturday morning last I told bim I was waiting my
chance to do it, and be said that he had told Scovel
to get him the $200 (two $lOO notes.) He also said
that Scovel knew what the money was for.
Ellis* time was ont last Saturday, on which day he
was released. The reason the project was abandoned
by Ellis was, he says, because Hunter positively
refused to pay the money until his cotinsel.
CoL James Scovel, had brought bim intelligence that
Graham was dead. Hunter is as yet unaware that
tbe scheme has been exposed, and to-uigbt was in
excellent humor, thinkixig that Graham wotild be
dead, as the money was to t>e paid to-day.

Special IHsDotch to the 2^tw-Tor1t naua.
Chicago, April 10.— During the past two
weeks the large grain operators, as is usual with
them every season immediately after seeding, have
made diligent inquiries relative to the amount of
acreage of the various cereals sown tbrougfaoat th^
North-west, and of tbe present and prosi>ective coa-
ditions that have infiaence upon the crops. It is
estimated that the increased wheat acreage over that
of last year Is at least 35 per cent*, in Wisconsin.
Minnesota, Dakota, and Northern Iowa,
while in ail the wheat growimc districts
south of the south line of Wisconsin the Increase is
even a much larger per cent. The acresge of oats Is
about the same as last year. There will be very
much less barley sown. In every locality where
Winter wheat is irown it- now looks exceptionally
well. The very early seeding assures, under tbe cir-
cumstances, a large crop of Spring wheat. There is
nearly or quite 25 percent of last year's crop still in
the hands of the farmers, and 60 per cent, is yet left
In Wisconsin. 30 per cent, in Minnesota. 10 per cent,
in Iowa and IlUnois, 20 per cent, in Dakota, and 14
per cent, in Nebraska.
SAif Franci?co, April 10. — Tbe crop reports re-
ceived this evening from all parts of the State are of
the most favorable character, with a tew exceptions.
There Isaprospect of abundant harvest in all quarters.
The southern portion of the State, and the San Joaquin
Valley, in which the crops failed last year, promise
equally well wi»;h tbe northern valleys. In s-ome
localities there is complaint that early sown erain
has grown so rank as to Iodide, but tnis has not
occurred to any ' material extent. The
exceotions above referred to are the
low bottoms in the Sacramento Valley,
which were drowned out by tbe February floods, and
tule islands in the delta of the Sacramento River,
which are still flooded over the greater portion of
their surface, and nothing' more tban late crops of
vegetables can be expected there.

Albany, April 10.— As a party leader on tha
floor of the Assembly Mr. Alvord has no equal.
Nearly everything be stai^ out to do he fiBslly ao
complishes, no matter how hopeless tbe task may ap-
pear to be at the outset. The way ne picked
up th6 demoralized majority last year, when 2Ir.
Fish wrecked it npon his New-York b:ils,
and passed every measure from the Commiscicner ot
Jurors to the Onuiibus bill,vras as remarkable as any-
thing which the Legislature has presented In the Hue
of party leadership. This session he has had tbe \ez^
in everything without dispute, and be has had passed
all the bills he sa^ he would. This momir.g be bad
the Apportionment bill passed, in the shape the Re-
publican caucus determined upon, and with tbe
full Republican vote— not one being absent — and
with one Democratic vote added— that of Mr. Proper,
of Columbia. It is extremely difficult to get
tbe full Republican vote on anything, as some mem-
bers are almost sure to be absent, but Mr. Alvord
contrived to bring them all in to-day. No dibcus-
sion was allowed npon the Mil, nor did it seem that
either side desired it, for every one wax conscious
that no amount of talking vrould change tbe vote,
one way or the other. Wben tbe bill w.-is annount^d
from the Clerk's desk for third reading, there was '
that sudden movement and bustle in the Chamber
which indicates the coming of something impor-
tant. Mr. Alvord immediately moved tbe previous
question. Mr. Bf ooks asked his friend from Onon-
daga to withdraw bis motion so that he could
offer an amendment, promising to renew the previ-
ous question- Mr. Alvord readily did so. Mr.
Brooks then moved that that the bill be recommitted,
with instructions to the committee to divide tbe por-
tions relating to the Senate- and the Assembly dis-
tricts, respectively, into two bills ; and, also, to take
one member from Wayne and another from Catta-
raugus, and add them, to New- York ; upon tbis be
renewed tbe previous question. Tbe yeas and narc
were called, and being taken, the vote stood, yeas
57, says 66. The announcnnent of the result
caused a flutter in the Chamber, for it was seen that
the last man on the Republican side was in hii
place, and that the passage of tbe bill must follow.
It was then read the third time, and the vote on the
final passage commenced. When Mr. Nelson's name
was called, he good-humoredly called Mr. Alvord's
attention to the fact that Governor's, Ward's, and
Blackwell's Islands were omitted from the bill, and
that he must warn his friends in the Senate to
squeeze them iu somewhere. "It's all right," re.
torted Mr. Alvord, "the Democrats will leoeive
them." Mr. Thompson, also explaining his vote, said
that he had come to tbe Liegislature with the idea
that Ms old friend from Onondaga was responuble
for the failure to pass an apportionment biU in tbe
years previous. He was convinced now that
he was wrong. He waa sure that his Onon-
daga friend wanted a fair and bonest hiiX. and than
the reason why we were now to have an unfair and
dishonestone was entirely owing to his wicked par^
ners upon this floor. [Laughter-] 3Ir. Beard, the
Labor Reform member, lectured both parties very
sharply. He said, among other things^ thaX be
thought the Democrats were most anxious for mux
Apportionment bUl. so that they might cut up the
Districts in New-York in such a way as to cheat the
other party out of one or two members. He warned
botb parties that they might cut up town
and county lines just as mucb as they
pleased, "but next Fall ice will take care
of the votes for you." He voted against the bill, so
far as could be seen, because he thought the Demo-
crats most desired it, and be bad been deeply dis-
gusted by the way they deserted bim yesterday
on the CUnton l:*rison Railroad bilL No one else
spoke, and tbe bill was passed by a vote of 67 to 59,
Mr. Proper, of Columbia, being tbe one Democrat
voting for it- *■
The passaee of the Apportionment bill was. o£
course, tbe chief event of tbe morning, but tbe pas-
sace of ilr. Daly's High Service Water bill provoked
tbe most discussion. Since full explanations were
eiven upon it, there certainly seemed no reason why
it should not pass. Tbe original act. passed two or
three years ago, appropriated a sum of
$1,500,000 for this hieh service of water ; about
half the money has been spent iu the work, and
that degree of progress reached where it became ne-
cessary to erect tbe requisite pumping apparatus, a
site for which had been reserved near High Bridce.
Then it was discovered that owing to an
oversi^t iu the drawing of the act, it otUy
authorized tbe laying of pipes. Tbe Corpora-
tion Counsel inserted the words " structures and
fixtures." into tbe original act, to remedy
this defect^ and with tbis single change the bill
passed this morning is tbe act of 1875. It certainly
apx>eared that tbe opposition to the bill had its
origin rather in the ill-feeling between Controller
Kelly and Mr. Campbell, the Commissioner of Pub-
lic works, than in any valid objections to tbe object*
of tbe bill. It was contended that it was open to
quite a different construction than appeared on tbe
surface; but if tbis had been the case the opponents
of the bill should^ have offered amendment-v which
would have removed any doubt arising from alleged
ambignity of language .- tbis tbey did not do, bat op-
posed the bill in toto. which, however, flnally passed
by a vote of S7 to 26.
Very sbon after tbis Mr. DaW's Repavins bill came
up — a measure of quite a diCterent stamp, and one
wbicti. in its present shape, is certainly open to sev-
eral serious objections. The hearing upon the bill
before the Committee on Cities some time ago made
tbis fact apparent. It was tbis bill that containcHl
tbe clause — afterward struck out — legalizing certa.n
repavine contracts, and requiring that they be con-
tinued. The discussion threatening to be as long as
that on the Water Service bill, and the hour of 2 .ip-
proaching. Mr. Fish moved to lay the bill upon the
table, which was earned.
Mr. Hepburn's In*.tirance biU passed the House
this morning, so ouietly and with so little opposition
that it was marvelous, in view of the great disturb
ance which was threatened when it was in Commiitee
of the Whole-
The Pnrdy-Morris case was reported by the Com-
mittee to the House- The committee merely reports
the evidence for considenttion. The general impres-
sion is that this practically continues Mr. Purdy ia
his seat.
Senator Edick's joint resolution for tbe appoint-
ment of a committee of three Assemblymen and
three Senators to sit dnring the recess and overhaul
the new Code, consult with the legal profes^ic:; oi
the State relative thereto, and make such amend-
ments as mf«y be dewned proper, was called from the
table in tbe Senate tbis moruing, and. after a long:
discussion, adopted by a vote 1 / to IL Tlie com-
mittee are to receive no pay. and their expenses tor

Senate^ GJoeoeVs bill for tbe maintenai^ce o£ a
Police pension fund, tbe provisions of wiiich «re-
sdmilar to the Brooklyn law. came up on its third.
readiniF, and was passed by a vote of 23 to 1. Sena-
tor Ecclesine opposed the bill, but his arsumenti
failed to win any votes against it except his ow^i. Tbo
other two Tammany Senators did not vote either
w^y, but subsequently Senator Wasstaff moved
to * recommit the Assembly or Fisb - bill
for the creation of a Police pension
fund, which tbe Senate Committee reported adverse-
ly. This bill proposes to appropriate $75,000 from
the Treasury to the fund, whereas Mr- Goebel's bill,
provides for tbe maintenance of tbe ftmd from the*
Police Department by fines, contributions, rewards,
&c. Mr. Waestaff. in moving to recommit tbe As-
sembly bill, said he did so at the requestof the Police
Commissi oners.
The Assembly-bill providing for lighting the streets
of New-York by contract was passed without opposi-
tion.
Senator Fomeroy moved that Jndse Robertson be
authorized to serve on the Committee on Cicie*. iu
place of Senator Morrissey, until Mr. Morrisi^y
should be able to take his neat in the Senate. Tbe
motion was carried nnanimonsly.
A very large petition, containing nearly 3.C00
names, and incluaing maoy of the leadtnt: cirixeuv of
New- York, has been sent here urg^g the passage of
tbe bill removing the Board of Bkcatlon and the
appropriations for school purposes trom the control
of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment. The
bill is the same in purpose as the one that rassad the
last Legislature^ and failed to receive the Crovemor'a
approval, but it has been so amended as to lueet the
oojections which the Governor urged last year.
Rumors about forthcoming appointmenta by the
Governor, to fill the position of Health OiEcer of the
Port of New- York, and of a SuMrintend^nt of the
Bank Deoartment. are again in drcalation. but
nothing defmite can be Teamed as to ihc Gover-

some other ccnntiee, which draw from the State
Treasnry for school purposes more than they contrib-

delivered with special emphasis and point. The
House seemed to enjoy the attack greatly, and It was
acknowledged on all hands that, whether the speech
waa calcniated to make TOtes or not, as a speech It
was a great snccesa -
After gnotlng rartonn statistics bearinj; on the
canals In thia anl other States, Dr. Hayea proceeded
to show the reason for the rapid advance of Kew*
York over her sister States. Be said in substance :
" With her wonderful mlneml and agrlenltnral
wealth Virginia failed to form connections beyond
her borders. The great West waa a ' sealed book'
to her, while Kew-YorK, with her canal
and no natural wea'th whatever, ' rapidly
increased her population and rushed for-
ward into opulence aid power with giant
strides. In 1S75 the population of the State of
New-York waa 4,705. 20b, being a gain of 702 per
cent, since ISOO, and in 1870" the population of
Virginia, inclnding West VirglBia. was only 1,667,-
177. being a gain of less than 90 per cent, since
1800. These diverse resnlta are dne to a snirit of
'masterly inactivity' In the one case, and to a de-
gree of ener^ and entemrise in the other. But 1
tell yon that Xew-Vork ie in danger
of losing her supremacy, and will mnat
as^redly do so nsless there b« exercised
the greatest sagacity. The notable events in the hla-
torr of oar State have been, flrnt, the construction
of her canals; second, their enlargement, and the
third assuredly will be, liberatiUK them from the in-
cabna of tolls. The manaitement of onr canala
should hove been such as was originally contemplated.
While- wt had virtnally a monopoly of the cairylng
trade, we should have made our canals yield a revenue
sufllcieait to have paid off all the loans contracted in
aid of their conatmction and enlarvement, within the
stipulated period of 18 yeara, and thus been pre-
pared, withont taxing the people, for a competition
which the enterprise and eneny of sister folates was
certain to force upon ua. .The census returns show that
for the decade ending with 1S60 the population of the
States of New- York and Pennsylvania has increased
in exactly tlie same ratio, but for the decade endink In
1870 the oercentage of increase for Pennsylvuiia
was overt '-1, and for >'ew-York less tttan 13 ;
or. taking he period from 1840 to 1870, It appears
that Pennsylvania has gained 104 per cent and
New- York only 80 .' At this rate Pennsylvania, IS
years hence, will outrank New-York in population.
The State census taken in New- York in 1975 showa
that the percentase of increase for toe five ymrt was
no greater proportionally than for the decade ending
with 1870. 'Thia la one result of the competition -.
another, as I shall ahow, la a loas of
trade in Weatern nroloets. The total exports of
grain from all United States ports to all
foreign countries, was. in 1S71, 56,143.166 bush-
els. and in IS7G 125,959.601 bushels, being again
of 69.816.435 bushels, aa Increase equal to nearly
125 per cent. This inereaae in the foreign export
trade In vegetable food certainly ought to have had
a perceptible beneficial tnduence in the trade of this
Slate : but bow waa it T .The total movement In
veeetable food by the trunk roads and canala con-
necting the West with the City of New- York, was,
in 1871, 3,965,471 tons, and In 1876 3,867.-
000 tovn, an actual loas ol 98,471 totls,
and notwithstanding there was a gain
In exports equnl to 125 per cent. The trade of onr
own State actually fell off 7 percent. For 1877 the
result wa* far from flattering. There waa a gain of
125,667 tons in vegetable food, aa compared with
the proviona year, but aa compared with 1871 there
waa a gain of only 27,196 toiia, or less than 7-10 o<
1 per cent. Do not these facta prove that the consti-
tutional restrlctiona In regard to onr public worka
are msidiously working In the interest of our rivals,
and are acta ally retarding the growth of the State,
and repelling trade which naturally should flow to na '
" It is true that when our canals were projected
the people were assured that ultimately they woold
pay the full costs of their construction, and that they
never would be a source of ;taxation beyond their
ability to return. Ttiey have already aecompUahad
all that waa promised I Grant that the people have
paid in taxes, distributed thronah a period of 34
years, $35,000,000 for canal purposes, and that
there is stUl a debt of $9,000,000 oatstand-
Ing. these sums simply represent tba interest
paid and zniglit have been realized from the
oualneaa of the canalii, but for a disregard of the
Constitution- But if the canala have not directly
paid their full cost, they have in an indirect manner
more than redeemed every pledge made for them.
The Auditor informi na : That the cost of eonstract-
ing all the canala amounta to $78,000,000 ; that the
revenues hare exceeded the cost of operatina by
S?6,O00,0OO. showing that the profit ot^op.
eraung are- $6,000,000 in excesa of cost,
excluafre of Interest; that the indirect bene-
fits which have •eemed to the Stat* are
the autna realized by the carrlera, the warehonaamen
and the commission merehanta, from the bnaineaa of
the canala during the last 40 years ; that theae sums
agfreiTHte 91246.868,964, and that there are other
collAteml beoellta which cannot l>e estimated i that
since 1820 the aggregate valuation of the real and
personal property In the State has inacased $8,500,-
000.000. and that the population has inereaaed
nearly 3,400.000. Wonderful as theae reanlUreaUy

as nothlnff compared with what may be reallaed in

English Cabinet Lotd Derby hka ntlKaiA.
Sbonld England go to war end' defeat Rtinia,
histoid ivUl hand Lord Derbf down to poiteritj
as • eowmrd. It Bnnia pnts England into*
seriotu dUBooltles, bistorx will say Ix>rd
Derby was a prudent and earetnt statesman.
Lord Derby tells tbe world that be entirely
■gnea with the Ministerial policy in deeUning
to go to a oongress in which Basal* Is to select
what abe shall put forward for dlaoussion and
what she abail withhold; that b* ia in aecoird
with all the Cabinet has dona In the past; bnt
he objeets to something they ptapese to do In
the fntnte, that sMaethinf; being the embody-
ing of the reaetre forces tt the Enlpife and
putting tbe eonntty into a flghttng attitude.
Lord Derby still belieYes In tbe moral force ot
England, fcnil in the ef&caey o{ dispatches.
Furthermore, he has lately became so bewil-
dered with the continuation of fair promises from
Bussia and foul performances thatheianolonger
qoite certain ot himself. It Is no breach of
piivate confidence also to tell yOu that for some
months past Lord Derby has found it necessary,
for his "particular complaint," to take an in-
ordinate quantity of stimulants, which has
tended to unnerve rather than to strengthen
him for the arduous work ot hla office. In po-
litical circles he is regarded asanotber ot Schou-
ralotrs Tietims. I bare heretofore informed
you with how much jealousy the vlaits ot the
Bnaalan Ambassador to Lord Derby's house
bare been watched. Tbe Foreign Secretary's
doors have always been open to Count Schonva-
loft. If Lord Derby happened to be engaged
when the Count called, fbe mistress of the es-
tablishment was always to be seen, and the
Cotint could wait until bis Lordship had re-
turned from Cabinet councils. There was- not a
thought or a tadt that cattle before the
Cabinet which Count Sehouvaloif did not
get hold of. He waa Lord Derby's bo^m friend.
He looked Into his heart as closely as CHiU-
Ungworth pryed into the very soul ot Dima-
dale In Tlte S:arlel LeiUr. ■ He knew every
move, ot the Cabinet His telegrams to his
most CThristian master often anticipated the dis-
patches of the English Foreign Minister. AU
this was known to diplomatic society ; distln-
tingtiished Conaervativea and eminent Liberals
alike regretted it. The Earl's confidence was
being abused, everybody said ; and by a man
notorious for bis intrigues, his diplomatic in-
sincerity, his miscellaneous amours, and his
general disregard of wliat are 03 lied the higher
and nobler virtues. Therefore, after tbe first
rush of excitement, not to say panic, at tbe news
ot Lord Derby's resignation, there is
a national sigh of rallet that at
last England hcs a united Cabinet Tbe
fascinating influence of Count SchouvalofF
in Cabinet i circles here is a standing wonder.
'Wlien Mr. Gladstone was t>ramler, and Lord
Granville occupied ih} position which Lord
Derby has resigned. Count Scbouvaloft got on
nearly a* well with that artnto Liberal states-
man aa he did with Derby. It was during the
Khiva business that the present Ro^alan Am-
bassador came with his drawing-room manners,
hla winning ways, and bis on bounded promiaes
of amity on the part ot the Csar. When Lord
GranTllIe became a little uneasy about Khita,
BchouTalotf assured him that nothing was
further from the Czar's intentions than an
occupation and annexation ot Khiva. His
Imperial Majesty had given his positive
assurances on that bead, wliioh Lord Qranrille
was at liberty to repeat to Parliament, and
which Mr. Gladstone's Minister did repeat in
dne course. And Busala took possesion of
Khiva. Such, however, is the sweet, innocent
and confiding manner ot Count Schoundoff
that Lord Derby, the new chief at the Foreign
OlBce, found no difficulty jn believing him, in
spite of tradition, and notwithstanding Khira
and that "massacre ot the innocents" there,
which must always be registered against the
present Government of Biusia. Count tSehou-
valoit assured Lord Derby that his maater's
mission was simply to give independence and
peace to the Christian subjects of Turkey.
Tbe Czar only desired to do tbe irork of
Europe. His Majesty wiahed to be tbe in-
Btrument in the Divine Hand. He would
not even approach Constantinople. The
Czar Mmself should give this public assu-
rance. The Czar did so sccordingly. Annexa-
tion 1 His Imperial master had never thought
of Bueh a thing. Touch Asia! Not at all.
The Ciar was anxiotu to prove to England that
tb« imperial vlilt not long gicee paid to Lon-
don, was one of genuine friendship. He would
not even approach a British interest Lord
Derby believed all this, and with Lord Carnar-
von, : and even Lord Salisbury himself, forced
their faith npon the Cabinet It was this help-
lessness that drew from John Bright, in the fa-
mous debate, " if you wanted to Sght Bussia
why did you wait until abe had beaten Tur-
key t " But we didn't want to fight as the song
has it, and so the Muscovite march Went on.
Count Schonvalotr reassured Lord Derby with
a diplomatic picture of tbe treaty of peace,
whatever- it might be, interfering with no
British interest, and being duly submitted to
the great powers for ratification. Theit fol-
lowed the mystery ot the armistice, the for-
ward march after its signature, the frightful
procession of dying Mussulmans to Coiutantino-
ple, and the entrapping ot Lord Derby into an
undertaking not to land troops at GslUpoIl.
StUl Sehouvalofl played the English Minister,
and held back tbe Cabinet with the aasnrance
that no treaty would be considered complete
wi&out the assent ot the powers, until at last
Lord Derby found that he had permitted Rtis-
idina literally to enter Constantinople, to
annex Armenia, and ^en, when at
last ha ' insisted upon the treaty being
honorably submitted to a conference,
Bussia demurred. Checkmated with his eyes
open, he refuses to areept defeat ; and yet he
shrinks from giving to his own refusal to enter
a Congress on Bussian terms the necessary sup-
port of military and naval strenirtb. And so
poUtically he dies, the vietim of misplaced con-
fidence and Bussian diplomacy. The most cu-
rious fact in tbe history of Count Scbonvaloff's
wonderfnl InflQenee in England is that any or-
dinary observer ean see that ha is only playing
a game, and that the game is not England's.
Moreover, the fact that he was Once the head
of tile Bussian Police (tbe most corrupt and
tyrannical force in Christendom) ought to have
prepared English Ministers to reoeiva his " aa--
cred word" with a considerable diseouflt
The eoming wiar, in which England and Bus-
sia will be the chief combatants, may be post-
poned for some time ; It may break oat at any
moment That it Is destined to come sooner or
later, I have always maiotained with unswerv*
log persistency. Bussia has a blind belief ia
Cssarism, which has either to be hammered
out of bar, or permitted to prevail to th* jitter
deetnietion of intemstioital treaty-boner aod
European liberty. It is the Uat effortet ■ Klaoi
dsspotlam — not to o*8 tb* batsher pbna* of a
brutal barbarism— to control th* doatt-
nle* ot Christendom. Tba sattoa that

The Cabinet pteferred tbe real thing. Lord
Derby resigned. His sneoessor is to, be Lord
SalUbwryi trhv Qen. leaBtteff diMn«nlsbei
al^m with the title of "my friend aiaiamrT."
White this eiateSlnita was- a» Constasttnoplab^
aUd G«n. Igiifttlef^ were oh good tarfns,' and
when the Eari came hoifle It waa thought he
was too friendly iirith Busda. Indeed, hts
resignation aa a member of the Cab-
inet -Was eah^naliy in men'i mootb*, ttd
the wish was then father to the thought
Bnt Lord, Salisbury from the moment tliat
Bussia doled in upSm COhatantlnop]*, while
they were Mystifying Europe Irtth artnistiee*
and preliminary treaties, has been at one with
bis coUaaguei, though the XUttt eonsidera his
appointment to Lord Derby's place as a ftuaran-
tM'tSat no tneMores ot mere hoMlll^ to Rus-
sia will be adt^ted. At lite ilaun* t&n* the fact
that h* stands by' his eeUeague* at this crisis
affords very' strong evidence of the faet~tbat
EngUsh Interests are gravely menaced.
"It la BuBsia," Uys the leading journal,
" who has trespaiised upon the forbeanmce of
England, not Eii^nd who Has shown a lack of
eonsideratibn for ber. That consideration baa
now been strained to ita utmost limits. But
nothing but necessity would induce us to assert
onr ngbts by force, and a timely and temperate
cohceMon on the part ot tbe Bciisian
Cabinet would, without in the least
degree compromisinK the interests of
Russia, insure the peace of Europe." Next
week Queen Vietorta will, according to con-
stitutional custom, having first communicated
With Parliament, order the embodiment ot her
reserves. She will declare the Empire in dan-
ger or in some other words proclaim an emer-
gency that calls for the support of ber mili-
tary as well as her naval forces, and in a tew
months, the Continent will see what England
can re^y do 'When she is jn earnest The
Guildhall speech of Lord Beaconsfield, how
nearly two years ago, comes back to
the memory. It will not be one or
two or three campaigns that will
exhaust England. She is jtiat as capable of
fighting for a long time as she was during her
.10 years of war. It is a bitter thing to think
that civilization should have to stand aside
while barbarism sets her iron heel upon the
world's fair pastures, but the descendants ot
Clive and Pitt, and Marlborough and Nelson, nf
Wellington and Haveiock, and the subjects of
tbe gentiest and most magnanimous of English
Queens are not going to lie at the beck and call ot
St. Petersburg, whether the Czar is backed by
Bismarck, or supported by a triple alliance of
ten times tbe strength of the Northern powers.
This is the feeling of England at thia moment
'I'he desire for peace has given rise to irritation
at the keeping open of an ugly core ; the mag-
nanimity of waiting to have things settied by a
oongress has given rise to national indignation
at what Is regarded as a tyrannical and dishonest
attempt to rob tbe conference of its fair and
legitimate business. England will hesitate no
longer except with her hand upon her swortl-
hllt; and the moment ber Majesty's proclama-
tion, addressed to her subjects, is on the walla^
the eld Oountry will lift up its head with a feel-
ing of pride that at last there is to be plain
speaking and earnest blows where honest wonls
are nnavaiUng.
The first object of Russia is to "square"
Austria. Count Andrassv 'waa listening to the
song of the charmer when tbe news of Lord
Derby's resignation flashed along the wires.
" Ah. the English Cabinet is, then, in earnest,"
said Austro-Htingarisn diplomatists. "The
<^een eatla out her 'reserves, reported the tele-
graph wires. "Ah, that means business," said
Count Andrassv, and up went Austria's terms.
What examples of "prudence" these Etlropean
nations set to individuals ! Gen. IgnStieff im-
mediately permitted himself to be interviewed
by reporters ot the London Telegraph and
3imei in order that they might send home
to England full particnlan ot his pacific de-
sires. He pointed out in eloquent terms
the goodness of Russia aod the folly of
any power doubting her virtuous intentions.
Mr. Gladstone waa at the same tlpie mak-
ing a veiT similar speech in England.
Meanwhile, Russia is making Servia garrison
certain points on ber side of .the Balkaiis, in or^
der tnat she may aend additional troops to San
Stefano. Fresh reserves are once more passing
tbe Danube, and veteran troops are moving on
toward Constantinople. The JiTreKs Ztitung
says that until very lately England intended to
ruin Busaia financially by prolonged arma-
ments, a plan which, were it carried
out, would place Bussia in a very
awkward position. To prevent this Bussia ia
prepared to strike hard and promptly.
" Hence," fatvs the ZeiUinij, " England has been
driven to arm in good earnest." From Berlin
we lea^ that the Czar being determined to
leave bis troops on the shores of the Boa-
phorus If the 'rreaty of San Stefano is not
approved by tbe powers, " it la here expected
that England will guard and eventually occupy
GallipoU." That an attempt ia being made to
form a Rnsso-Tnrkish alliaxice is as certain
as anything can be in this life, and a few days
may demonstrate ita success or the want ot it
The present tension will not stand. Should
England make a really hostile movement,
Buaaia will occupy Omstantinople, with or
without the conaent of the Sultan. Supposing
the Csar's troops are In tbe capital when war
breaks out between England and Russia, what
will bippeni The British deet could reduce Con-
stantinople to ashes. Two divisions of Russian
cavalry have been ordered to return at once
from Bnlgiiria to Bonmania in order to oeenpy
tbe strategical line from Sinaia to PredeaL
Other Important movements are going on with
a 'view to meet all eoiitiiigeneles. 'testerday
tbe Czar inspected the reserve battalions of
sappers, of tb* guard, and tbe ritles, in St
Petersburg, and in addressing them aald :
" Should you go into action I hope you will
show tbe same valor as has been displayed by
yunr comrades,"
"Aod what will the end bel" I asked a
diplomatist of great experience this morning.
" War," waa hfi reply. " But is there no hope
that diplomacy m^ yet achieve another victory
in the interest of^ peace!" "It rests entirely
with Russia," be said. " The EngUsh Cabinet
will be content with nothing leas than she baa
asked. If- it is Bismarck's policy to induce
RtisBia to give way, things may come rotmd :
but if that is not part of hla arrangements, and
Austria can bO kept quiet Russia Will light"
"-And do you think the neutrality of Gejv
many can be relied upon?" I asked. "Yea,"
he replied ; " and now I will tell you some-
thing whichyou may take ctim gratu), bnt I be-
lieve it 'When these difficultiea commetuied
Prince Bismarck made a proposal to Lord
Beaconsfield. At that time war between France
and Germany was on tba cards, ' Give me
guarantees ot voQr neutrality in ease ot another
war between France and Germany and I will
keep Germany out of any interference between
England and Russia.' Lord Beaconsfield de-
clined the compact"
" Do you think there is a possibility' of an
alliance between France and England 1" " No,"
was his reply; "though there is a tar better
feeling on the part ot France toward Engluid
during the last two or three months."
" France would decline to go into the con-
gress without England 1" I said. " Yes," replied
the diplomatist " both England and Fnmee
would have preferred that the proposal for a
congress should have come from one of the bel-
ligerents."
" And the reported RUsso-Turkish alliance ("
I asked ; " what of that 1" " Turkey," he said,
" is at the mercy of Russia. She would much
prefer to be in the bands of England."
" And Egypt 1" " Is as good as ours," be
said, " but we are anxiotu not to hurt tbe ctmour
propre of France, and, what ia more, we don't
want to'increase our territory or onr responsi-
bilities ; bnt we mean to hold our own."
Meanwhile the preparations for war go on
with increased activity, and alt the Indian
troop-Bhlps are lying at anchor, ready to em-
bark an expeditionary armv.

THE BKSOLUTION8. »
After the'Viee-Prealdenta and Seeretarieabad
lieea elected Mr. R. B. Hooney offered a aeries ot
resolations; of which the following it a <ynopaia :
The recent address of the ExeeStive Committee Is
realBrmed and approved, and the Legislature Is re-
quested to promptly pass a eonenrrent resolution for
the appointment of a commission of 13 citizens of
acknowledged honesty and capacity to report forth-
with to them, for their information and action, a
proper bill to reduce salart** aad abolish slaeeiw*
offleea, so that a real savliig ot at leaat $1,(X)0,000
from these somees aloa* may be made in the tax levy
for tbiayear, and more than 92,000,600 next year.
Th* " Public Bnrdeaa " bill la denouJaeed as a fraud
and a sham because it delegates power to the Board
of Apportionment — "b«lieved to b* an unconstitu-
tional body not riacfed by tbe people, aa emenda-
tion and creation of file Tweed Tammany Ring,
which is ishereitt in the State Legislature, and
bec^Bs* its provlaioiu are not mandatory,
nor do they make it eomptilsory to reduce

from thrir pr^eent exorbitant amonnta to
$10,000 each, and a few other salatiea, amounting
to over 95,000 par annnas. to that aom, while un-
limited power ia delegated to th* Board of Appor-
tionment to diminish appropriations of the depart-
menta, preventing leginmat* improvaments ana the
employment of labor to the extent ot 92.«00,000

The reaolatrona were unanlmoasly adopted.
ADDRESSES St CHADNOE'T SHAFFER
AND OTHERS.
tbi ne^ speaker waa Mr. Chauneey Shaffer.
He began with a reference to the Tammany Hall
Party in the years long before th* days ot the Ring.
The party In those days, he said, used to act very
eaftieatiy, f er/ boneaUy, and Conteqnantiv very en-
ergetically. Everything at the present time waa
chahged. It did not require many honest m^ to
run an honest government bat it appeared to
be necesaaiy to. bsV* a great many dishonest
one* to run the Government of thia City,
trade and biulnets were being driven away from the
City, '• there was no reason why New-York should
become a sand-bank for sea monsters to fatten on,"
but it would come to that eventually it ita mlagovem-
ment was not arrested. He remembered the time
when pnblto offleiala took care of the people'a money
for the people and not for themaelvea ; he remem-
bered the time when men in office were reqnired to
earn their money. Ihe preaent state of affairs waa
the resnlt of the cyclone of political eorrnption
which swept over the City in the Ring days.
Tweed, he said, was a man bom to a higher deatlny,
not bom to be where he is, but where he ought to
be. When Tweed stepped out another man t>om for
betisr tUngs stepped in. John Kelly had made, in
his opinion, a SDod Sheriff ; even when he banged a
man he did It like a gentleman. It was a noble am-
bition of his [Kelly'aJ to want t« rule a great City
like New-Vorki ana he found no fanlt with him for
entertaining such an ambition. Hia govern-
meat, however, waa nnaatisfactory to the people.
He could not get rid of the men uround
him. If Kelly [hisses] got rid of the men fattening
throngh him, he would go down. They would all
hang on to him, whether he would or no, and If they
did not han£ together they would separately.
[Laughter.] Be then went on to charge Kelly with
collnsion with Bepublicana In the Leglalainre to
acquit Inaurance Superintendent Smyth. -And after
Kelly's action in helping to secure the
acquilttal of a corrupt Republican office-holder
he claimed to be the head of the Democratic Party of
this CHty. Tbe speaker then denoimeCd the proposed
" Public Burden bilL" The Board of -Apportion-
ment in making the reduction of 92.000.000,
would allow " everv salary to remain up bi the cold
sublimity where it now exalts itself." [Laughter.]
In eonelnslon, he urged npon hit hsarers ths necet-
alty of orgi^nizingfor theoverthrowof Tammany Hall.
Mr. Simeon E. Church waa the next apeaker. He
aaid that he did not wish to be consideTed as allied
to any particular organliatian. He preferred, like a
good many of hia fellow-cltizena, to belone to tboae
Hying drggoona in polities, whose duty it was-to be
in at the breach every where where there was peril,
and to give a helping hand where there was need.
Speaking of the oppressive burdens of taxation and
the depreciation of real estate, ho alluded to Mr. Kel-
y's efforu to kill bills introdaeed In the LfteUlature
by Commissioner Campbell, which would improve
property north of Pifty-ninth-street. He advocated
the* building up of this property, and in conclusion
said: "Let Mr. Kelly eo to work to cut
off sinecures and useless ot&ces. instead of
atopping the public works, and he will
find that he will have abundant means.
A million dollara saved in thia direct on will keep
3,()00 men employed every day in the year, Summer
and Winter, year lu and year out There are now
over 8,000 aalaried employes in this City whoae
aamee are npon the City pay-rolla drawing a united
aalary out of the pockets ot the pwiple ot over
910,000,000 a year. If they were placed in column
tonr abreast in marcolng order, the column would
extend from the City Hall a mile beyond where we
are asaembled, and if that column could be set to
marching, and made to keep on mar^-hing till the last
rear rank had disappeared beyond the hiUs of West-
chester, never to xetum, the tax-psyera would be
the happier for it It ia a shame that a Justice
of tbe Peace of thia City, usually a third-rate lawyer,
Incapable ot earning 91.G00in bisprofessinn, should
draw a laner salary than the Chiet-Justiee of the
United States; and that three of our City Justices'
Courts (and there are 10 of them) should cost more
money than the whole Snpreme Court of the United
SUtes."
A letter from Mr. 'WUUam H. MorreU declining hla
somhution aa one of tbe 'Vlce-Preeidentt of the
meeting, bnt expressing atrongly hia aympathy with
ita objeeta waa then read by the Chairman, after
which Jamee D. McClelland made a speech in favor
of a reduction of toe salaries of public officials,
th* abolition of sinecures, and the employment of
iaore laborers ou the public worka ' Th* meeting
then adjourned.
4 riBOlNIA LOTTERY SCHEME.
m
SUIT AGAINST 'WELL-KKOWN NEW-TOBKERS
BT A BOUTHEBM ASSOOIATlON— A TECH-
NICAL DEFENSE SUSTAINEO.
Tbe Southern -Aesoeiation for tbe Benefit of
'Widows and .Orphans waa incorporated by the Vir-
ginia Leglalatur* on June 30, 1867, and waa em-
powered to orgaalae and carry out a plan to dlapot*
of certaimJanda in a aeheme ot chance, and aell tbe
ehanees by ticket or otherwise. Ita actions were
exempted by charter from all penaltlea attached to
the carrying on ot lotteries. John C. Bntta, Ben.
jamln Wood, Henry Colton, CJharlea B. Mturay, and
Nathaniel S. Uorae. of this City, made a bond In the
penalty of 950,000 to aecnre the f ui^llment of a con-
tract made with the aaaoctaUon on July 31, 1869,
whereby Butta waa to carry on the aeheme of raffling
off the property. Batt% Murray, and Wood are well
known aa leadera in different lottery and policy enter-
5 rises. Colton " deals In cards" in Murray-street, and
loree is connected .with the Kewt^ of which Wood ia
proprietor. The contract of the a>isociation was with
Bntta alone, and provided that the association
abould not be liable for any expentes or otherwise ;
that Bntta should pay 91,O0O per month in advance
and 30 per cent of the net profits for tbe privilege
of ranalng the raffle; that he abould not advertise
it in Virgmia, Ac Butts seems to have found it a
bad bai^gain, for he failed to carry out the terms
ot the contract The association, therefore, brought
ault against h];n and the ether sureties on
the 950,000 bond to recover the amount of the
penalty stated in fbe Ittstmment The ease waa
brought to trial before Jndee Wallace and a jury of
which John Jacob Astor was foreman, in tiie United
Statea Circuit Court yesterday. Lyman Elmore
waa the only witness examined. His testimony dis-
closed the facts above stated. He also gave an out-
line ot the manner in which dnirings in th* lottery
or " raffle " were bad. In the course of his examina-
tion he said that ex-Gov. Henry A Wise, Thomas
M. Dudley— a aon of Bishop Dudley— Bradley T.
Johnaton, Robert Ould. and other men were Direc-
tora.
Tbe defense put in evidence the deposttioe of E.
M. Oamett He states that 78 numbers were
coimted and put into ivory tblmblea. which were
placed in a wheel Twelve numbers, then drawn
out by a blindfolded boy, were declared to be en-
titled to prizes. The deposition of the late Henrv
A Wiae waa also read. It waa to the effect that
many prominent persona were concerned in tbe
achems ; that tb* money received from it waa de-
voted to charitable objeeta. and that It waa not ope-
rated as a lottery, Mr. Wis* drawing a disttaetion
between that and a "ndfie," tboush he waaaot
aware of any such dtstinetiona being upheld by the
Ylrginta Court of Appeals.
None of the defcnaantawlth the exception of Mr.
Morse, were in e<mrt 'Their defenae traa that tiie
Virginia Stat* (^nttitution forbids tbe uassweat
any act authoriring the establishment ot a lattery in
that Stata, aad that the' scheme in tbe lifeaent in-
stance waa a lottery beyond all question. Jud^
Wallace austatned thia riew, and direeted tbe jury to
find for th* defendants.
A ys» PKDssTsiAir rxaisa.

sayed the feat of walklsg 400 miles in lOOhonrs at
Central Park (}ard*a on Tuesday evening, continued
th* trial yaatarday. B* atarted off in fia* atyle,

The New- York, and New-Jersey Scbuetxen
Corps held their sixth competition for the United
Sehuetaea Corps badge at Union Hill. N. J., yester-
day afternoon. Tbe weather waa very unfavorable
for out-door shooting, and the heavy fog which pre-
vailed had a tendency to depress the ball and impair

that the place of trial had bees, fixed hy the CenfeT'
enee and eonld not be dianged.
The question of taUsf up a eotleetlon tor voot
vrea^ers was brosicht up and dlsenssed at uiiialflaii
able Jettetb. Fresid ng Elder HOI, of the Kaw-Harsn
I>i8tcict| repeated tbe statement made on llosday in
regard to Bev. Mr. Tompkins, of West Oranbr
Conn., who was treated so badly by tba "elder-
brandy congr^aiion " over which he bad nndertaken
to preside. He therefore aaked that a collection be
taken up for tbe benefit of Brother TompUna. .A
collection was taken up. and the sum raised was
$325 12, which, added to the amount raised on Mob-
day, makes $766 50.
Rev. Dr. Scndder read the report of tbe Conk'
mittee on the State of the Chnrcb tn regard
to obnrcb entert^nments. After a long preamble the
report oondoded with a' resohition to the effect
that the Conferenee disapproTed of popular enter-
tainments in churches which may not be eosn*
tenanced or patronized in tbe name of tbe Lord
Jesus. In reference to the building of chnrebes in
localities where they will not meet irHb adequata
suppiTTt, and the m&intenanre of those already ex-
isting in such locaiitiefv, the committee recommended
the adoption of rejolotions recitine that creat care
should be taken not to build chnrehoa where there
is not pood reason to expfKrt a Euffideot attendauei
to secure their rapport and maintenance; and tliaf
the many small enarobes in tbe Conference, too
feeble to be self-sostainlnE. should be united in eir-
cnits, with A preacher in chsrise f ; om the Conferenee.
Kev. Dr. Kettell moved that the resolutions ba
adopted, and that the preamble lay on the table.
The readine of the first resmlotlon wa.^ called for,
and Kev. I>r. Curry said it was very cood. but ik
meant just about a« near nolhincas pos«ible. A
long discussion followed, after which tbe motion oT
Rev. Dr. Kettell was adopted.
The Treasurer made the following report of the
mooeys collected for benevolent objeets during the
year: For the missionary cause, $27,032 40;
Women's Forrien MiesioEB, $1,821 34: Church ex-
tension. $1,837 13; Tracts, $739 52; Sunday^

$860 75 : educational purposes, $463 87 : BibU
Societv. $1,304 96 ; Bishops. $3,257 72 ; Charity.
$7,773 44 : total $45,083 51. The total amount
of tbe collections last year exceeded that of t.e year
previous by about $2.00u.
A preamble and resolatioa ware read and adopted,
recommendinsr that prompt aid be extended to the
old Forsyth-Sireet Church, which is laboriug onder a
debt of $65,000.
The report of the Committee on Publication was
read and adopted, after which Rev. George Dunbar
waa granted supernumerary relations. Rev. Dr.
Fowler, editor of tbe ChrigHxin AdrocaU, adtiressed
the Conferenee !n behalf of that paper, and Rev. Dr.
Curry, editor of the liational Repository, spoke in
behalf of that publication. After tbe adoption of
the nsu&l complimentary ref^olutions. Bishop Foster
addref^sed the Conference briefly, bidding Its ta^ta-
bers an affectionate farewell. At the close of fats ad-
dress he asked the Conferenee to join him itj. prayer,

On motion of Vx. HiLIi, of Oeoigia, tha Senate took
ap tha bill for the relief of John O. MeBomejr, lata
Collector of Internal Berasne for the Second Dla-
Wct of Georgia.
A debate upon the allefed deflcienclei, aa appar-
eotl}- ihown by ttie report of tha Secretary of tha
Treaenry in 1S71. apmnc np, Mr. Dftns, of Wait
Vlrjinia, argnlng that tbli rat>ort ahowed actnal de-
falcation to an amnnnt of over $50,000,000. and
Hr.' Dawzs eontendlnfc that it was but an apparent
deficit, growing ont of tlie mode of acconntlaic by the
Tnikanry Oeputment tor all nneollected rerennea,
beln( cbaT]t«d to the Collactoza nntll finally settled
by the department.
Ur. AU.I.SOH. of Iowa, said that on the table
referred to Mr. Davla, the Collector whose case was
DOW before the Sehate, Mr. McBomey stood a
defanlter to the omoost of over $90,000, while the
report of.the committee showed that he owed tha
Boremment bnt $3,000, which was taken by his
tepnty without any faalt on the part of McBoznay.
After farther debate, the bill was passed.
THK aWTSjT.T^a BUX.
Mr. GoRDOS. of Georda, rose to a correction of
the Jonmal of yesterday, by which it appears that
the bill of the Hoase placing Gen. Shlelas on the
retired list of the Army waa referred to the Com-
mitte on Military Affairs. When the bin waa an-
noanced. be rose in his nlaee and moved ita present
consideration, to which Mr. Edmnnds objected. He
bald that oader the twenty-fifth rale, the bill onjcbt
Dot to have been referred, bat that it waa still on
the table, or had been erroneoosly referred.
The Chair stated that tha bill had been read by
title ; the CuAiB had annonceed the reteienee when
the Kentleman rose.
Mr. GosDos claimed that having made the motion
the bill could not, nnderthe twenty-fifth rnle eo to
the committee without a motion by aoma Senator to
refer.
Mr. CoxiLixo said the statement of the Senator
vindicated the Joamal and the Chair. The bill
could not have been conaidered except by a motion
to suspend the present and all prior orders, and' pro-
ceed to ita consideration. The oUl. ha said, is now
In a better condition where it waa than it would be
on the table without reference.
Mr. GonJoON said that it was not now a question
as to the success of the bill, and he would like to
test the tense of the Senate aa to whether the ob-
ieetlon he had made waa of a eharacter to keep tha
bill before the Senate.
The Cbaic so^^ested that the Senator put hla sug-
gestion into form of a motion.
Mr. UOBi>ox sugEeited that the Chair rule whether
or not the bill was before the Military Committee.
The Ckaib ruled that it waa In that committee.
Mr. OoBCON said, without diarespeet to the Chair,
and only to set the sense of the Senate, he would
appeal from the decision of the Chair.
Before a vote was taken he withdrew hij appeal,
and offered a motion to correct the Jotimal ao aa to
read as follows ;
" If there be no objeetion, the bill will be consid-
ered as read a second time."
Mr. MzBBiMox and Mr. Heeitoed objected to
this as not stating accurately the words of the Chair.
Mr..GOBDON ajcaio amended his motion, to simply
Bttitte out the words "referred to the Committee on
Military Affairs."
Mr. Educxos said that the object of the Senator
waa to-have present action on the bill, while bis ob-
Ject waa to prevent present action and have the bill
properly considered, as other bills were. Hla objec-

THK BANKBUPT ACT BZPEAL BIU,.
The Senate resumed the consideration of the biD
to repeal the Bankrupt act. which came up as the im-
Snlshed business from yesterday.
Mr. McCbzibv, of Kenturky, said the Judiciary
Committee had assigned to him the charge of the
bill. He should .oppose all efforts to amend the
present law ; for if it took five months in Winter to
^rfect the former, what eoold they exnect to do
with a new bUl in the warm Summer months t Bis
LeglalatoTe bad Instructed him to vote for a repeal
of tha act. Nine-tenths of the people of Kentucky
favored the repeal, and he would say nothing to de-
lay the paaaage of tlte bill or to provoke diseaaalon
In opposition to It.
Mr. Ma'TTUKWS. of Ohio, offered as a substitute
for the bill his own bill to eetablijih a nniform law
on the subject of baukraptcv. He aj^reed with Mr.
MeCreery, that the nreaent law contained buf little
that waa Kood, and that little ao embarrassed by
dalaya and vexations aa to be hardly worth
conalderaiion. He then proceeded to cx-
pl^n the provisions of bis bill, compering
It with, and pointing out the differences between ita
orovisions and the existing law. He contended that
the bUl proposed by him came np to the eonattiur
tional requirements of being strictly in relation to
Benkmptey and uniform in its operation. There
eeveKhad been a period when there waa ao much
lent— eo much bankmntey, present and proe peetlve —
and he felt that something should be done that would
afford relief to the nnfortanate banknpt, and at the
use time protect the Intareata of the eredltora. For
thia reason be had ventoied to offer the aubatttute
bow presented.
Mr. McCbzebt reee to reply, bnt yielded to Mr.
Sitrfentforamotfonlorthe eonaideratiOB of fxecl^

At 4 o'cloek the Senate srent tntoezeentive aeeaion,

f^S CBSOITOBS OF BIS BOK COBXSLtDS.
Few msttera of lBta^a■t ware addnced dorfaig
the examination, in the matter of the Taadarbnt will
eaie yeaterday. Knmarooa objeetifiaa to teatiaunv
were made by the eounael for the proponent, and a
great deal of time was wasted In talk about petty
matters. The erosa-examlnatian of Mrs.. Helen S.
Clark waa resumed 1}y Mr. Clinton. The ansvete of
the witneat proved that either her memory vie very
weak or aha waa lata observant than her direct testi-
mony would indicate her to be. She eoold not de-
scribe the Interior of the late Gommodore'areaidence,
the furniture in his siek room, or the appearance of
the servant who admitted her to the house. Eliza-
beth Beed and Jane Hara, the nnraea who attended
Commodore Vaaderbilt daring hi* last sicksass, were
brought before the witness, and she taid aha eoold
not reeolleet having seen them before.
John P. Cairry testUSed that|he waa a topographical
engineer: one day Is 1873, wUla be waa surveying
f or landiaarka and boundaries along the Siehmond
road, on Staten Island, Commodore Yasderbllt drove
np to him. and said in a violent manner : " What in
are you doing here I" Witneta replied that he
was laying out bonndarlet ; the Commodore taid :
"Oat oat at here." Wltneei replied: "Notameh,
Commodore." He taid: "I own all the laada on
this island ; you get off this island at once, or I will
put yon oft" As he cracked bis whip and appeared
aggressive, the witness left at once ; the Commodore
was very violent ia hit laiunage, and ntrd all the
profane expletives he eoold apparently think off:
witness was not pious, but did not care to repeat
the oaths ; the Commodore, the witnata aaUL aeted
veiT much like a czaxy man.
Horace E. Brown testified that he had known Com-
modore Tandsrbilt from 1863 1 ha and his wife via-
Itsd the Commodore's hoiue partienlarly to tee Oor-
nalias J. Yanderbtlt't wife, who was than living
there : the uommodor* once taid to the witeeta,
speaking of Cornelius : " I am glad he goes to your
ofllce.- I vrisb he oould gat Into such a bnxlneae as
Tours. I have often reeretted that Cornell waa not
brought np to business, sad I wiah be waa vrell
placed ;" the Commodore then naked the witaeas to
keep Cornelias about hla ofllee aa much aa poasible ;
three or four similar eonveisatlons took place be-
tween the Commodore and the witnee* ; ue Oom-
modor* also told the witness that Oomdiiu had
gambled, but he thought that tlie passion for the
eaming-Uble wa* being crushed out of him by the
influence of his wife, who had great
power for good over him, and who held
the purse-strings; at the time of the death
of George Tanderbilt. in Paris, the Commodore
ipoke pathetically about Comellnt, faying : " I with
Comale waa iu boainet* and in perfect health, so
that I eoold lean on him ;" witnee* loaned Comelina
Tandaihnt between $700 and $800 on three or fonr
different occasions ; when Cornelias went into benk-
ruptey he owed the Witneas but $100 ; witness once
spoketo the Commodore about Comelina' Indebted-
ness to him, and the latter said tbarplv : "Why, I
didn't think you were ttieh a fool as to waste
money in that way. That will be a good lesson
to you, yoons man, ai yon will have to wait nntil I
am dead, then Cornelias will pay yotL Cornele haa
a great many indlacreet friends. Mr. 'Greeley and
othatabave loaned him money. It they had only
followed out the plan I marked out, it woold be
batter. The only revenge I eas have iato make
them wait until I am dead.''
David B. Ryeie, of Todt am, SUten Island, testi-
fied that he kept a public house ; he had known
Commodore Tanderbilt ; bad known 'William H.
iranderbilt all Ilia life : he had often seen him on
Staten Island and In witness' tavern. Mr. Lonl aaked
tha witness if he had ever seen 'William H. Vender,
bnt gamble. The i)uestion waa objected to, and,
after a long discussion between counsel, the Surro-
gate exeloded testimony bearing upon the eharaeter
of 'Vmiiam H. Tanderbilt unless, as a corollary, it
could be shown that the late Commodore waa aware
of improper condact by his eldest son, and was so
much affected in his mind by the knowledge that
usdne iafinence alone Indtieed him to make the will
now contested.
Mr. Lord next called out the names of a nnmiier
of wltneases. and aa none of them responded, he
asked for attachments. Judge Comstock said that
the indulgence of the court had been abtised by the
counsel for the contestant, and moved that upon Frl-
dyr next such counsel be comnelled to set forth In an
affidavit what tbey expect to prove, and by what
witnesses tbey expect to prove It, so that the Surro-
gate might be able to decide whether there was rea-
son pr not to allow the case to continue.
Surrogate Calvin fiDslly decided that the con-
tastanta moat finish their case In the 10 days allotted
for the hearing in thia month and in Jime next, or
sbowfoodreeaonfor being allowed to eontlnue it
longer. The examination waa then adjouzaed imtll
to-momw moraiag.

CASE.
The trial of the rinKolar salt of Thomas C.
Clark against the Mechaaica' National Bank, which
occupied the attention of Jedge J. F. Daly and a jury
for mere than a week, waa eonelnded yesterday
morning. It seemi that Clark kept an aeeountwith
the bank for .tome yeasa, and that when Ida book was
balanced, in 1865, the bank returned it to him with
49 vonehera, and with a aotieeto the effect that 23
Tonehera— ta the shape of paid checks aaMnatlac to
$27,149 90— were mlislng. Oark doee not eeem to
heve paid much attention to the matter imtil
1874, when he went to the benk and
aaked for hla money. Ee then derled haTing
drawn the 23 cheeks, and asked -to see
them. Hi* attention waa called to the fact that they
had been reported aa missing nine years previously.
The bank oflQcers, according to bis story, told him
they #ere not boiudto retam thevouehera, and
that it waa a mere matter of eoartesy te do so. He
demanded the $27,149 90, and, iu oaymeat being
refused, brons^t the present salt to reoover the
money, with Interest. The benk defended the ac-
tion, elalmlag that the money ked beea duly paid on
ehedn drawn by Olark, and also that the eleimwaa
barred by the atatate of Umhatlona. The latter
plea was ovemled by Judge Daly, who held that
the beleneing ot the peas-book— it having been
done vrtthout aasent bn Claik'a pwt— waa
not an aaeonnt stated, and that the atstnte
did not begin to mn until after thademend In 1874.
It waa not disputed that the hank had really paidirat
the money, aad the InstitBtion by proof traeid one
ot the Aeeks. The ease waa given to tim jary at
6:30 P. M. on Tneedsy. Oa retiring to their
room they Immediately took e ballot, which reanltad
in eight Totea for the plaintiff. A leeoad ballot
ahowed 10 Totee for the plaintiff. At 8:10 P.M.
the jury agreed. They brought a sealed veidiet into
eoort yeaterday morning in favor of the vlalstiff for
lhafm]amoan£wlthintarestfroml874. Tbisscemed

SyUUa Knaupf, aa Administratrix of her de-
ceased husband, Frederick Knaupf, bronght suit in
the Superior Conrt recently to i«caver $5,000 dam-
ages from the Board ot Commissioners of Cliarities
and Correction on account of her hiuband's death.
It seems that Knaupf became an inmate ot Bellevue
Hospital on Jan. 20, 1876, and that a aurgieal
operation was performed on him. His widow, who
sues for herself and her seven children, claimed
that mere boya had been employed in performing the
operation, and that her htuband'a death, which fol-
lowed shortly after the perfonnaoee of It, waa the
result of an overdose of ether. The Commissioners
demurred to the complaint, claiming that they could
not be held liable, beeaase the honntal waa not run
tor their benefit Or emolument, but waa merely a
part ot the local Goverraaent. Judge Sedgwick, in
Special Term, yesterday, ovemilea the demurrer,
and gave jadgaxent f pr the plaintiff.

The attendance of members of Coneress
at the Bepnblicon caucus was nnosuallj
large, and its proceedinfcs were "entirely
harmoniooSs" Almost the only subject
discussed was a resolution presented
by Senator Sarge^tt, which, after stat-
ing that the restoration of the Dem-
oijratic Party to Dower would be a national
oalamity, and that 90,000 Bepublicau of-
fice-holders throughout the country consider
themselves bound by the President's order
to abstaia from engaging in active efforts
to av^ that calamity, proceeds to request
thai the Presidential embargo on participa-
tion by ofiScials " in meetings, caucuses, con-
TentJons, and committees of a political char-
act*'" be removed. The resolution was re-
ferred to the newly-appointed Congressional
COTnmittee, with iwwer to confer with the
JE^^sident on the subject. The gathering
tt&i at least the negative merit of abstaining
from squabbling over dead issues ; it is to
be regretted that it tailed to show an intelli-
gent perception of the demands of live
ones. The President's order has, so far,
proved elastic enough in its requirements
to satisfy the most exacting partisan,
and it is a sorry confession of Republican
weakness to assume that the party cannot
maintain its place without the aid of the
Postmasters, the Revenue Collectors, and
the Custom-house officers. The National
Comgressional Caucus needed to be ele-
vated to the standard of the intelligence and
conscience of the Republican Party, not the
party to be lowered to the level of theirs.

A somewhat specious defense of the Mex-
fcan system of forced loans is put torth in
the interest of the Mexican Government.
It is explained that when these loans ' are
forced from the merchants and bankers, re-
2eipts or certificates are given, and these
are afterward receivable for Customs
duties, at a considerable discount In
>ther words, a revolutionary Government
redeems, at a discount, the certificates of
indebtedness given for the money by which
!t helped to establish itself. This is true of
the Diaz Government, because Dlaz was
successful, and is now in a position
to pay the expenses of his revolution,
redeeming his paper with the public funds.
But suppose he had not been successful ?
"Would his competitor have redeemed the
obligations of Diaz f In the ports of the
Pacific States of Mexico revolutions have
been very common. The revolutionary >
chiefs invariably have one programme,
which is as follows: (1) Seizure of the
specie in the Custom-house ; (2) a forced
loan ; (3) flight The fact that foreigners
thrive under this periodical levy upon their
profits, which is advanced by the Mexican
Government in further justification of the
system, is striking evidence of the state-
ment that the traders have neither con-
fUiience nor competition.
matter .. what .. Iom . of . money . already'
expended, or izgnry to the water-enp-
ply of New-Tork, might result from
its foilnre. ^e animus of the Tammiant
opposition 'was so apparent that the bill
passedby a majority of .60 votes. It were
to be wished that when Tammany shows its
hand in a less open, though equally sugges-
tive, fashion, the Legislatore should exhibit
equal decision on the side of public honesty
and good faith.
The instant modification of England's hos-
tile tone on receipt of Prince Gortsoba-
koit's manifesto shows how well the vet-
eran Chancellor has done his work. - The
meaning is the same as ever, but its stem
tenacity is quite put out of sight by the
frank, easy courtesy of the utterance.
Briefly put, the answer is this : " England
and Russia are both agreed upon the neces-
sity of remodeling the Turkish Empire ; the
only question is, how it shall be done. We
have stated our plan ; let England state
hera, and everythingcan be talked over and
settled in a friendly way." The conciliatory
tone adopted toward Boumania, and the
offered abridgment of the two years' occu-
pation of Bulgaria savor equally of a 'wish
to avoid war if possible ; but, on the other
hand, the reconstruction of Bulgaria, and
the not less delicate question of the Arme-
nian fortresses, are left in statu quo.
Whether the Khfidive's projected visit to
Constantinople 'will revive the very awk-
ward subject of Egyptian reform remains
to be seen ; but should it do so, a very se-
rious addition trill be made to ^England's
present responsibilities. The rumored show
of pro-English feeling in the Turkish Cab-
inet is probably due to the recovery of
Vetstk Pasha, who seema to have regained
simultaneously his health and his political
influence. The anti-Russian press of
Vienna is clamoring as loudly as ever for
the modification of the San Stefano Treaty,
but Count Akdrasst himself repudiates all
idea of bai^faining with Russia, and still
clings to the hope of peace. In a word, the
attitude of all the disputants is that of men
who, while wishing to avoid a quarrel, con-
sider themselves bound to let the first over-
ture come from the other side, and the real
desideratum is a competent umpire.
^
Senator Burkside has presented so few
bUls during his official career that any new
propoeition from him would be regarded
'With interest. But his bill to introduce in-
struction in "the elements of moral and
social science" into the schools of the Dis-
trict of Columbia, is something more than
interesting. The Senator proposes to have
the youth of Washington instructed in " in-
dustry, order, economy, punctuality, pa-
tience, self-denial, health, purity, temper-
ance, cleanliness, honesty, truth, justice,
politeness, peace, fidelity, philanthropy,
Datriotism, self-respect, hope, perseverance,
cheerfulness, courage, self-reliance, grati-
tude, pity, mercy, kindness, conscience, re-
flection, and the 'wiU." This is a porten-
tous catalogue of 'virtues and graces, but it
ought to be expected that most of these
would be indirectly inculcated by teachers
who understand their business. The peo-
ple of Washington are no worse and no bet-
ter than people of any other city, and we
must protest against any attempt to make
them virtuous by act of a Congress in which
most of the traits enumerated have been
eonspicuons by their absence.
The persistent opposition of the Tam-
many members of the Assembly to the
High Service Water bill is a fair sample of
the spirit in which EEU.T and his followers
treat questions of local government. The
bill merely supplies a vital omission in the
act of 1875, and confers the power to
erect a pumping apparatus at Hig^
Bridge, which that aet left unprovided for.

CONGSESS AND CHARTERED MONOP-
OLIES.
The associatedPacific Railroad Companies
have probably discovered their mistake.
They imagined that resistance to the re-
quirements of the Treasury, with the help
of a powerful and unscrupulous lobby,
would enable them to dictate the terms of a
settlement, or at any rate prevent legisla-
tion at variance with their demands. Upon
this assumption their programme 'was
founded. Professing to desire a settlement,
they submitted propositions that were obvi-
ously inadmissible. Then they began a
policy of delay. Various devices enabled
them to postpone adverse action. Argu-
ments were raised at; every stage ; Sena-
torial influence was enlisted in their
service ; and a session closed with
the question still open. Encouraged by
past successes, Mr. Jay Gould under-
took to employ similar tactics against
the measure which by a decisive vote passed
the Senate on Tuesday. He and his lobby
took possession of the approaches to the
Senate Chamber, invaded its committee-
rooms, figured impudently on the floor, in-
sulted Senators, and set up "honorable
gentlemen " to talk of the vested interests
and sacred rights of a parcel of stock gam-
blers. Whether Mr. Edmunds carry out his
half-promise and investigate the Jay Gould
method ot managing Congress or not, the
spectacle presented has been too scanda-
lous to be quickly forgotten. It was an at-
tempt to reproduce on an enlarged scale the
machinery and the tactics which in
ftther days enabled Gould and his
partner, Fisk, to control legislation
at Albany in the interest of the
Erie frauds. This time it has failed. But
the 'effort deserves exsimination, partly with
the 'View of exposing how an arrogant mo-
nopoly estimates the authority and integrity
of Congress, partly to unravel the mystery
of the connection that exists between Gould
and certain members of the Senate who
have been always ready to do his work.
That inexplicable influence known as Sena-
torial courtesy forbids a too close scrutiny
of the inside history of the Railroad Com-
mittee, but the public, who have seen how
readily it responds when Jat Gould pulls
the wire, have put their owd construction
upon its character and motives.
The abandonment ot the Matthews bill
before the final straggle came was the first
indication of the defeat that awaited the
little knot of jobbers and schemers who
have worked in Gould's behalf in the Bail-
road Committee and elsewhere. It was a
sign of the hopelessness of unqualified re-
sistance to the Judiciary Committee's
measure. As a last resort, the advocates of
the companies turned their attention to the
modification of the measure instead of its
rejection. Had this course been taken
earlier, the result might have been differ-
ent. Mr. Blaine says truly that Mr. Thur-
mas and other members of the Judiciary
Committee have somewhat changed their
ground since the subject ot a sinking fund
was first presented. The principles they
lay down are more sweeping, and the con-
ditions they prescribe are more burdensome.
What then f The fact proves simply that
in the beginning the friends of the
settlement now sanctioned by the Senate
were not inclined to be exacting. Perhaps,
they were willing to meet the companies
halfway. Their overtures, however, were
resented offensively. Deriving additional
confidence from the Supreine Court decision,
the companies defied Congress. The only
arrangeinent they were prepared to enter
into was one that wouldhave been inequita-
ble to the Treasury and inadequate as a
means of securing it against loss. The Ju-
diciary Committee was constrained to as-
sume a stronger position, and to afBrm prin-
ciples which confer upon the Govern-
ment the power asserted in the bill
just adopted by the Senate. Even
then it was not too late for the com-
panies to submit terms entitled to friendly
consideration. The proposal to sell to the
Go'vemment twelve millions oi. the land it
had given showed how strangely their
managers misapprehended the temper of
the people and of Congress. Aa opportuni-
ty was left to them when the Thnrman bill
-vraa reported in this aeasion. Then ma

tnres and to divide among the stockholders
a dividend in excess of any fair percentage
upon the original oost of the stook. The
oompaniea ohonld have accepted tltat condi-
tion without more ado. They might then
have asked with a good grace for modifica-
tions affecting the percentage of net earn-
ings' and the retention of earnings on
aocognt of Government transportation. Kot
until the last moment iraa any effort ot this
nature made, and then it was spoiled in the
making. For this circumstance Mr. BLAim
may be partially responsible. The germ of
bkimess in his amendment was hidden under
a proposition that would have served as the
basis ot ' fresh litigation, with decided ad-
vantages on the side ot the companies. It
tailed, and the companies may thank them-
selves for the passage of the bill essentially
unchanged.
It is idle to pretend that, so far as the
sinking fund is concerned, they have aught
further to fear, provided they comply in
good faith irith the provisions ot the scheme
to which the House will undoubtedly give
its support. However reasonable the gen-
eral complaint against Government as a
party to a contract with a corporation, in
the present instance the legislative power
has not proved itself a very hard taskmas-
ter. Ample time has been afforded for the
voluntary performance of a duty that is
scarcely less in the interest of the enter-
prises than ot the National Treasury.
Not until a dishonest purpose be-
came apparent did Congress address
itself to the task which the tardy action
of the Senate brings near a close. The de-
la:^ has not been an unmixed evil since it
has led to an exhaustive discussion of the
right of Congress to revise and amend the
chartered agreement under which the com-
panies conduct their operations. The argu-
ment upon this branch of the subject has
been overwhelmingly in favor ot the princi-
ple that underlies the Thurman bill. The
ablest legal minds in the Senate, irrespec-
tive ot party, sustain it with a conclusive-
ness that leaves nothing to be desired; and
if Jay Gould has any 'wisdom left, he will
not 'waste another dollar of his stock-
holders' money in yain efforts to im-
pede the enforcement ot a measure
thus strongly fortified. The power has not
been exercised wantonly in this case, and
its exercise at all in the future depemds
upon the proceedings of the companies.
There is no desire to meddle with them
needlessly. But if the Union Pacific pro-
ceed on the supposition that its arrange-
ments are independent ot law, and that it
may violate the terms defined by the law,
say, with the Kansas Pacific, it must expect
to be subjected to the only authority that is
superior to its pretensions. VOth the pass-
age ot the pro rdta bill, let us hope, the
business ot Congress trith the present
transcontinental companies will end. Only
let it profit practically by its experience
when it proceeds to perfect arrangements
for the construction of a Southern line.

The large increase, heretofore noted, in
imports during 1877, though exhibiting
some fiuctuations, whether on comparing
each month with the preceding one or with
the corresponding one of 1876, continued
from February to November, inclusive, that
month showing an increase ot $6,400,000
over 187C, although a decline ot $5,500,-
000 as compared with October just past ;
December showed a decline of $6,700,-
000 from November, and of $2,000,-
000 as compared with 1876 ; January
showed an increase of over $5,600,(000
over December, but a decline of $2,000,-
000 from 1877 ; February now shows a
decline of about $3,000,000 from January,
and one of $2,600,000 from 1877. Feb-
ruary thus makes the third consecutive
month of decreased importations, as com-
pared with 1877. The total decrease dur-
ing these three months, on comparison with
1877, is $6,737,323 ; while the total de-
crease tor the same months ot 1877, as
compared with 1876, was $8,236,313.
Goods exports, on the other haod, show an.
increasing movement. Starting from the
unprecedented figure ot $76,500,000 in
December, 1876, they declined up to the
end of last Summer ; since then they have
been on the rise, both from month to month
and as compared with the previous year.
In December last, they showed an increase
of over $7,000,000 over November, and of
$2,740,000 oyer 1876 ; in January, a de-
crease ot about $300,000 from December,
but an increase of $4,550,000 over 1877 ;
now, in February, that is a decrease ot
$3,000,000 from January, but the enor-
mous increase ot $14,230,000 over 1877.

That the movement wUl.. continue in the
■ame direotion and also at theaame'rate'
for the remaining four months, is not to be
expected, and yet it is not 'utterly beyond
prediction; during these months in last year,
however, on ' goods alone, there was an ex-
eess of imports iil a little over $18;000,d00.
In Bummoryi all that can be said is that the
extraordinary decline of imports and in-
crease of exports, in 1876, which resulted
in the unprecedented export excess ot
$185,000,000 for that year, became re-
versed in the Spring of 1877, and generally
80 remained throughout that year, but that
now there appears to be a reaction going on
toward the abnormal movement ot- 1876.
This latter change ia certainly as discourag-
ing as last year's trade current was, en-
eouragiDg ; it indicates that the inclination'
and ability to consume, which seemed to be
on the rise in 1 8 77, are again depressed, and
it is a positive although not noisy testimony
to the effects ot the mischievous course of
legislation. How far the fear ot tariff
changes — which was not felt during at least
nine months of last year — operates to depress
importations, and how tar their depression
is produced by the silver crusade, nobody
can tell ; but it is 'vrithin everybodys recol-
lection that when Congress assembled in
October last there was, and for several
months had been, some perceptible im-
provement of trade, and the prospects were
believed to be good ; Congress, however,
hastened to restore confidence to the capi-
talist by menacing him with a club, and
very speedily put an end to those prospects,
in their stead producing a depression which
it is now hard to define. The Matthews
statesmanship, which considers that the less
we have "to do with abroad" the better,
may rejoice in the decline of importations,
but it is not a favorable symptom.
The following is the specie movement for
the eight months :

The movement of specie — which possesses
extraordinary importance in view of the
possibilities of resumption nine months
hence — is still remarkable and in the same
direotion as heretofore noted, namely, an
accumulation of the stock in the country.
In January the net export was nearly
$2,000,000; in February there was a net
import ot $2,364,000. During the seven
months there was a net export ot about
$5,000,000, against a net import of
$5,350,000 for the like time in 1S76-7;
duringthe eight months the net export is only
$2,570,000, or at the rats o! less than
$4,000,000 a year, while in the year 1872,
(taking that as an ordinary year,) the net
export was about $75,000,000. These
figures show — what has been known tor
many months — ^that the country has been
accumulating gold rapidly, but whether this
accumulation will go on during the remain-
der of the year, or whether it will not turn
into a diminution, is the crucial question
which cannot be answered. Certainly, gold
will not stay here, much less come here,
simply because it is needed for resumption
purposes, and, almost as certainly, it will
not be drawn by any wisdom apparent
either in Congress or in the Treasury man-
agement. The movement at this port dur-
ing last month was a net export of abo ut
$500,000, against a net import of about
$1,000,000 during February; but this
cannot count tor much. We venture no
prediction, but in view ot all the discover-
able signs — not the least important of them
being that the return movement of bonds is
probably somewhat on the increase, and
quite large enough to offset the creditor
balance in favor of this country resulting
from goods transactions alone — we see no
reason for qualifying the opinion we ex-
pressed a nionth ago, in reviewing the trade
figures for January, that depletion rather
than augmentation ot the stock of
the precious metals is inferable from
the facts apparent. The general move-
ment is that we are importing less and ex-
porting more of merchandise, and settling
the difference by the return of bonds — ^buy-
ing up our own obligations. This might be
a very healthy and desirable course, were
we in different circumstances, and able to
pursue it. As things are, it is probably for-
tunate that the return of bonds, stimulated
by the silver crusade, has met, thus far, a
creditor trade balance which has acted as a'
protection to our stock of gold. Had Con-
gress, on the other haud, shown ordinary
sense and prudence by deferring until the
resumption trial had well passed the whole
silver matter, except by inviting a monetary
conference, there is no good reason for
doubting that instead of getting bonds,
which we do not want, we should be getting
gold, which we do ; the direct effects ot the
infusion of silver into the circulation, more-
over, are yet to come, and, at the very best
which is possible, the precipitate folly of
Congress has complicated the resumption
problem by adding a factor which can
neither be eliminated nor ascertained in ad-
In order to show better the suprising re-
snlt of this comparison, we subjoin the

■ Except the magnitude of the theft, there
is nothing peculiar about the crime of the
Treasurer of the Union Mills Company,
Fall River. It is not often that a thieving
officer of a corporation " gets away" with
haU a million of money before his opera-
tions are discovered. But in every other
particular Chacb's theft resembles similar
crimes which have startled the community
at frequent intervals during the past few
years. Of course, Ceace had the confi-
dence ot the community and of his fellow-
Directors in the Union Mills Company. If
he had not, he could not have stolen so
much money. Naturally, too, he held a
"high social position.^ So did every
one of tiie embezxlers, defaulters, and
'Violators of private trusts who have sud-
denly turned out to be rascals. Given,aman
with a responsible and influential pontion,
trusted with the handling of large amounts
of money, and 'with the custody of a valua-
ble property, and the " high social position"
ia ^most a necessary consequence. Chace
was Treasurer ot a wealthy corporation,Pre8-
ident ot two banks, and twice a member of
the Massaehnsetts Legislature. Like all the
rest, CeaOS was eminently respectable,
tMited, and tber^oie able to -conceal his
theHforalong tiiae. Therefore, too, he
-•raa aUe to steal at alL It ia an oldatory.
' U is tha'enatBinaf the rural >resiL when a
man shoots himt$)f or. his tiifatA, while fool-
ing ivith a fire-arm which he thought was
not loaded,, to refer to the shooter as "an-
other idiot." Dead or ali've, he has no sym-
pathy from the commnnity. The number
of 7e(^}e who annually commit homicide or
filo -de se by sportively firing a weapon
whieh ifcey believed " was not loaded" is
very large. ' Each fiital occurrence is com-
mented upon with much feeling, and people
go right on shooting themselves and friends
aa if no wwming had ever been uttered.
Philosophy is baffled to explain such a
predetermined disregard ot innumerable
'warnings. We must suppose that the ex-
planation of this fatuousness, when found,
will also account for the failure of business
firms and corporations' to learn anything
by repeated ' exposures ot thefts carried
on for years by confidential agents, em-
ployes, and officers. No amount ot moraliz-
ing by the press, and no amount of dilating
upon details, has been able to enforce the
moral of playing irith loaded fire-arms. And
no moralizing has sufficed to warn business
men ot the' danger of trusting any one man
with the unchecked handling ot large
amounts of money. At any rate, the Union
Mills Company would not be warned ; and,
within a month, some other concern is
certain to wake up 'with a start to find that
it has been robbed by a highly respectable
man who holds a fiiie social position.
The Union Mills Company is a large and
substantial corporation. It employs 500
operatives, owns two valuable mills, and
was on such a secure foundation that its
notes were readily discounted whenever
they were put upon the market. The man-
agement of the financial affairs ot so great
a company, one ' would suppose, should
have engrossed all the energy of one man.
But the Treasurer, Chace, was engaged in
extensive, so-called, " outside " operations,
and was the President of a bank and an in--
stitution for savings. There was a board
of Directors in the Union Mills corporation.
At least we hear of them now as going
over the books of the company.
What have they been doing, these three
years past, while their Treasurer was steal-
ing the company funds and unlawfully issu-
ing the company obligations f In his "out-
side " operations, this trusted Treasurer was
unsuccessfuL He needed money to repair
his losses. And he took the corporation's
money, or raised money on the corporation's
paper which he, as Treasurer, fraudulently
issued, hoping to be able to replace it by
and by. This is an old story. They all lose
in speculations, " borrow " with the expec-
tation of returning, and finally come to
grief, just as Chace has, and just as thou-
sands of other men trill, until the end of
time.
An impartial and uninjured public will
say of a Board of Directors who
have lost half a million dollars, because
they put it into the power of a man to
steal that amount, it "served them right."
Example after example has shown that it is
not safe to tempt men with great oppor-
tunities for misappropriating money. And
yet these examples are unheeded^ and
those who tail to heed them are as deserv-
ing of sympathy as a man would be who
should leave open the doors ot his ware-
house at night, and complain in the morn-
ing ot being robbed. There were Direc-
tors of the Fall River corporation
whose business it was to ' know what ob-
ligations the Treasurer was issuing, and
what he was doing with the money obtained
on them. Like multitudes ot other Di-
rectors, they sat about the table at Direc-
tors' meetings, heard his statements with
unquestioning confidence, and went their
several ways. And the man who meant to
be honest, but who was hard-pressed and
tempted, stole without detection for three
years or more, and to the amount of half a
million. The loss of money is not a great
misfortune, but the loss of confidence ot
man in man is a real calamity. The high-
est confidence comes ot the consciousness
that no man can be unduly tempted. It is
only just to the keepers of other people's
funds that they shall not be left to tempta-
tion. And those who neglect the ordinary
precautions which prudent men demand for
themselves, commit a grievous public
wrong. The criminal is not justified be-
cause he has been led into temptation and
has yielded. But it would be better for the
honest and incorruptible who are in places
of trust it their weaker brethren, as well as
themselves, were not left without check or
oversight ^
MB. GOULD'S REPORT.
Yesterday was the thirty-seventh birth-
day of Jay Gould — we should say, of the
Tribune. Its proprietor had been signally
defeated the prerious day in a raid on the
United States Treasury, and he' naturally
supposed that the public would imagine that
the financial difficulties ot the Trt&HiM would
be thereby increased. In these circum-
stances he remembered the cheerful finan-
cial reports which he ivas accustomed to
put forth in the days when he and the late
Mr. FisK were engaged in managing the
Erie Railway, and he directed that a report
of the financial condition of tha Tribune,
concocted after the Erie model, should be
published in its columns. Accordingly,
under the pretext ot celebrating its thirty-
seventh birthday, the Tribune yesterday
printed a report, which, as a display of
imaginative power and contempt for prosaic
fact, compares favorably irith Mr. Gould's
best efforts in connection with Erie reports.
Mr. Gould announces that the Tribune is
absolutely tree from debt, 'with the excep-
tion of a single mortgage, and that " it does
not even a'vail itself of the customary sixty
or ninety days' time allowed by paper-
makers, but discounts their bills for
cash." This is especially creditable to the
TMhune, since it notoriously finds much
diffictilty in getting its own notes discount-
ed; unless, indeed, the hard-hearted paper-
dealers have taken the ground that they
will not supply the Tribune with paper ex-
cept for cash, in which case the latter ought
not to. claim credit tor doing what it ia
compelled to do. From the Tribune Build-
ing Mr. Gould assures us that he and his
fellbw-stockholders receive a sufficient
amount in rents to pay the entire interest
on the Tribune debt, besides an annual sur-
plus of $16,000. Host persons 'will won-
der how a costly building, « great part of
which is without tenants, ean yield so large
a revenue. They forget, however, that the
])eer saloon in the basement of the build-
ing does a very large bnsineasr, and that if
I tha IHiwM haa aa i^tearest ia tba orofit^ of
tha 1i«Br.t>adi^.'it : M>8)tt to . reeetr* a \a*ti»
iaeocae (tom that seuree.
13ie eirenlation'ot the pax>er is all that
Ifir. OouLO could wish. He assuroa us that
its daily eirenlation, though somewhat leas
than tbat ot the BenSi, is greater than that
otTHETDRS'; and knowing from expeti-
enee the effect whieh a table of figures has
upota the pnblie mind, he prints the
" eharges for . postage . on the iraiions
editions of the New-Tork morning papers
from the Department of Washington."
Of course, with this large circulation, the
Tribune ought to make a great deal of
money. Mr. Gould, however, is modest,
and only claims tbat its net profits last year
were " between $39,000 and $41,000."
This, irith the surplus from the rents of the
TrUnaie Building, makes an afnu^i net
profit of about $56,000, whiph is a very
respectable sum in these hard times.
Ot course, the one hundred shares into
which the capital stock pf the Tribune ia di-
'ricted are very valuable. The Ayer estate
holds 'fourteen ot these shares, which the
Executors have for some time past endea-
vored to sell for $2,500, or less than $200
ea6h, but for 'which they have failed to find
any purchasers. Obriously, these Executors
are men of the most grasping disposition.
'Their share ot the $56,000 which Mr.
Gotnj) says the Tribuue cleared last year
musthavebeen about $8,000, whiehis cer -
tainly a fair interest on $2,500. Neverthe-
less, they are hot satisfied, and are anxious
to sell for $2,500 a property yielding
$8,000 per annum. The most curious fea-
ture of the affair is the fact that no one 'will
buy these fourteen shares at the price de-
manded. It is a painful illustration ot the
financial distress which prevails outside of
the Tribune office, that no capitalist has
yet been able to command $2,500 'with
which to buy shares that last year yielded a
return of $8,000.
Why Mr. GoULD committed what seems
the grave mistake of doubling the capital
stock of the Tribune at the very time when
its annual net profits are $56,000 it is dif-
ficult to see. It is only about a week ago
that he advertised in an obscure paper his
intention ot increasing the stock by issuing
one hundred thousand dollars' worth of new
shares. A newspaper which, after paying
all its expenses, including interest on its
mortgages, has remaining a surplus of
$56,000, surely does not need to resort to
the expedient of doubling its capital stock ;
nor does it seem reasonable that the present
stockholders among whom this $56,000 is
divided should be anxious to reduce their
dividends one-half by sharing them with
new stockholders. The only possible ex-
planation which can be made is that which
The Times recently set forth. The Tribune
stockholders most be actuated solely by a
desire to share their blessings with other
men. This is indeed noble, but there are
those who wUl insist that Mr. Gould has
not hitherto seemed to live solely to make
other people happy, and that it is not easy
to conceive ot him in the act of voluntarily
sharing his wealth with others.

OB Ways and Means to-day aontiBnad the tott
aideration of the Internal Bevenne bill, devotinf
the entire session to diaeuasing the ineoma tax.
A motion was made to strike oat tit* par
agraph restoring the ineoma tax, which
was defeated by a vote ot 6 to 5.
Ur. Sayler had not Intended ti
vote npon the motion, bnt aa the vote stood 9
to 5, he voted to retain the pangrapb. He ex-
plained that he was opposed to restoring thii
tax, bnt in view of the fact that the Hosse had
voted to Instruct the committee to report the
income tax by a vote ot 165 to 69. he thoaght
the aubjeot should be reported. . The reietatios
of instmetion to whieh Mr. Sayler allndad
failed to pass by reason of not racMV-
ing a two-thirda majority, bnt the voti
showed a very decided majority in favor of the
measoie, and Hr. Sayler, therefore, thooxfal
the Honse should be given an opportunity to
pass npon it. In opposing the restoration of
this tax. Jndfce Kelley said he would not
vote for the imposition of any new ta:^
or the reimposition of any war tax ^lieh
has been remitted. wbUs the flnanrial
policy of the Government restricts tiie prodno
tive power of the eonntry, deprives the labop
ing people of work and wages, and consequently
of the ability to eontrlbnta to the pablie reve-
nnes by consaming taxable commodities, and
compelling those whose capital is invested is
productive Industries to pav tax out of tbeii
principal rather than oat of their etirrant piaflts,
the appropriate fund for that porpoia.
A msLJoritr of the committee is opposed to tb*
restoration of the tax, and had it not been foi
the vote of the House on this aobjeet, on Feb. -1,
the motion to strike if from the bill would
liave prevailed. It ia probable a majority of the
committee will be found voting against this tax
when the bill comes to be acted upon in the House.
Some members argnsd that the reduction oi
the tax on tobacco from 24 to 16 centt wU
make it necessary to reimpose the income tax.
The committee has not decided upon tha
amount to be exempted, the rate of tax. whethei
a uniform rate on all incomes in excess of a eer'
tain sum shall be imposed, or whether a grada
ated scale shaU be established. Two thoosan<
ddlars is the sum now named in tiu bUl as th>
amount to be exempted.

WASHUfOTOS, April 10.— The Senate to.

by the Committee on the Judiciary to repeal th<
BankruDt law. The bill repeals the act ol
March 2, 1867, and all acts amendatory dr sap
plementary thereto. It is provided that flia re-
peal shall in no manner invmlioate or affect any
case in bankruptcy, instituted and pending ia
any court prior to the passage of the Bepeal bill,
bnt as to all snoh pending cases the
Bankrupt law shall continue in full foree
and effect until the same shall be,
fuUy disposed of. Mr. Matthews prapotod a
snbstitute for the bill of the Judiciary Commit-!
tee which establishes a uniform law on the sub-'
ject of bankruptcy. . This aubstltate provides
that any person becoming insolvent, who Shall
make an assignment according to the laws of
the State or Territory In wiilch he remde* or
carries on business, of all his property, for the
equal betteflt of all his creditors, shall thereby be
declared a bankrupt, and when his aaseti, npon
distrlbntioaby hisAssignee, shall have paid to hia
creditors 'within two yean after his assignment
50 per cent, of the amount of their claims, the
bankrupt shall thereby be discharged from all
further liability, and aU property acquired by
the baiikmpt during the two years subsequent

seizure upon judicial process npon claims exist-
ing at the date thereof. Tliis discharge and
exemption shall not extend to obligations oon-
tiaeted fraudulently, or inenrred by means of

it is believed that the bill reported by the

to Salinas' ganic or a lot of smugglers, had a fisht on
Sonday last with six of the Mexican Custom-house
guarda, and that one man was killed and another
wounded. Salinas himself was not seen. The sup-
posed fl^t took place about 25 miles from New-
Lando. 1 will endeavor to get more news. I do not
deem It Important, aa the commanding olBcer of
Kew-Lazedo promised me some time ago to inform
me whenever there waa anything reliable to report.
£o far he has not sent me word atwut the Sunday
flgbt, or anything about the crosaing.
SELLERS, Commanding.
A report was also published that that the United
fitatea military prisoners at Fort Duncan had
been &ni npon from the Mexican side of the Bio
Grande. Thia report is deni^ by Gen. Urd.
With reference to the qoestion of forced loans,
mentioned in these dispatches some days ago as a
possible difficulty In the way of the re-establishment
of relations between this country and Mexico, it is
atated npon authority that these loans have never
been levied excent in time of war, and then upon
British, French, and ' Mexicans, as well
aa Americans ; that in the 20 years from
1848 and 1868. dnring most of which time Mexico
waa at war, there were comparatively few cases of
forced loans upon Americans. These were ruled out
by Sir Edward Thornton, Umpire of the Mixed Com.
mission, on the ground that the taxes being levied
.npon natives and foreigners alike did not eon-
atitnte a eaae for diplomatic Intervention.
In addition to this receipts were given,
which were made receivable for duties on Im-
ports at a very eonsiderabie discount, so that in
many caaea merdunta aetnally derived large profita
from the tiansaetion ; at all events none of them
have been driven from Mexico by these exactions,
and their ateady increase of fortune has not been in-
terfered wttli. It is also stated that allclaims on this
aeeount, growing out of the l>iaz revolntinn, which
have been preseiited to the Mexican Treasury have
been paid by Secretary Romero.

Eaton, the Kansas member of t>e National Desoo-
etatle Committee, wUeh was lats^ .pabUahsd to the
Clneinnati Enqvinr and reprodoead la Tax TlMU.
Beferrtog to Mr. Eaton's aaaertien that he got #40,-
000 of the money that went to OIUa(' Col. Thamiiaan
said:
"I never received $40,000 at anyone tlaa, and
not half that aain during tne entire, oimpa^pi. from
Tilden. or rather, I ahoold say, Hewitt, as hs dis-
bursed the money."
" How murh did you receive. Colonel?"
*'I can't remember exactly, bnt as- 1 saidit waa less
th^nhalfof the sum mentioned byKatou.. An the
money I received in the campaign wasdirset troa the
Chairman of the National Committee, Br. Hewitt.
That is, the money was ordered sent by him, but It eras
paid through the Treasurer, Mr. Cooper. It Was all
sent to us in drafts made payable to the -order of
Jacob Relnhard, Treasurer of the State Executive
Committee of Ohio. The drafta were cpllocted by
Relnhard, and the money placed to ths credit of tba
iataie Executive roDimtttee, andnsed by them for
legitimate campaign expenses, such as printing,' dr. ,
ctitating documents, paying expenses of spesVets,
paying for meetings, aud so on."
" If It were neceaaary you could get at the' exact
amount r*
"Ob, yes; easily enough. The State Committee
kept an accurate aeconnt of every dollar received
and paid oat. The books were kept just as your ae-
connt or mine would be kept at a bank. Afl4 the
books of the National Committee would show, too.
Mr. Eaton knew notliiug of the money paid out by
the Chairman of the National Committee for cam-
paign purposes. Hewitt said to me yesterday, when
1 showed him that interview, that he suppoeed
Eaton's failure to convince him [Hewitt] that $20,-
000 would carry Kansas had changed his mind in re-
gard to the use of money in campt-lgna"
'■ Eaton tried to get 9-20,000, did he I "
**Yes. He went tn Hewitt dizringtfae campaign
and urged that $'20,000 be used In Kansas.'' Hewttt
refused, saying tinit the State could not be carried
and it was a waste of money to try it. Eaton sal's
Gov. Tilden told him about the money. Now, is'a
my opinion that Gov. Tilden never did anything of
the kind. Gov. Tilden is not in the habit of Uiking
about these ma ters even if he knew anything about
them, which I vt-ry much doubt. Gov. Tilden, I
don't think, knew anything about the money that
waa paid out. and if he did and was given to talking
about it Eaton is not the kind of man he would talk
confidentially to. Mr. Eaton la a member of the Na-
tional Committee, and can, at its next meeUn^, as*
eertain just how much money waa paid out for the
campaign tn Ohio. "
"All the money used waa sent to yoti, was It
ot f "
" If any other sums of money than those paid to
the Executive Committee were sent to Ohio it vras
without my knowledge or the knowledge of the Dem-
ocratic Executive Committee. It is poeslble that
monev might have been sent into the State to others
than the committee, but Mr. Hewitt never men-
tioned it to me." ■*
" Well. CoL Eaton also told Gov. Bendtiexs that
all Waahlngton waa organized toto a Thurman move-
ment f"
"Yes, that's about like hU other statements. If
there is any onrani^ed movement for Thntman I
don't Icnow it. and I'd be likely to know it U one ex-
isted. Of course, tiis friends talk for him andbla
name is favorably mentioneil. but tbat'a alL "
The Pott' I man next shook Satan's interview st
Hon. Abnun &. Hewitt ex-Chaitman of the National
Committee, and asked what he had to say about It.
"I don't propoee to discuss the affaira of the last
campaisn. or be drawn Into any atatement concern-
ing iu management, " said Mr. Hewitt, with, a de-
termined expression. " But as far as Mr. Eaton is
concerned,'' he went on. "I will say that for him.
as a member of the National Committee, to discuss
Id an onen rallwav car matters that came to hla
knowledge aa a member of that committee and In-
trusted with its affairs, is so gross a breach of pro-
priety that words are not strong enough to condemn
it." Mr. Hewitt talked faat, and It was plain to
be seen that he was mad. He took a second's
breath, and. gesticulating vigorotuly, contlnned :
"And as to his [Eaton's] statement that Gov. Tilden
and I do not speak, thnt la a grottndlesa fabrication,
a gross falsehood fsbriCMted by binuelf, and ytm may
give Mr. Eaton the benelit of that for me. Eaton is
no doubt mad because we did not put bim outheExecn*
tive Committee, but we didn't consider him fit for it.
That's the whole truth of IL Good eventag."
The members of the National Committee who
are in Washington axe all indignant at Eaton's blab-
bing, and at a meetingof the committee next month
a resolution to expel him will probably be totro-
duced.
THE WOOL MONUMENT.
AHUSEMEm
DBAMATIC.
MEMOBI-AL OF A BEBO OF THREE WABS— THE
HIGHEST OBELISK C AMERICA— 300 TONS
OP GRANITE.
-From the Tray Timet, April 10.
UajorGen. John £. Wool left a provision in
his will Betting apart the sum of $50,000 for the
purpose of erecting a monument to the memory of
Mrs. Wool and himself. The General has now been
dead ntoe years, and during the Intervening time his
Executor* have spent many anxioua hours to the con-
sideration of plans and designs. The monument ivill
unquestionably be the Unest private atrueture of the
ktod to the country, and while It will honor the
name of Wool, it -will also reflect credit npon the
City of Troy and our beautiful Oakwood, where It
-wiu stand. Ita entire height ia to be 75 feet, and ita
weight 300. tons. The desien is to represent aa
i£gyptlan obellak, the monolith betog 60 feet In
length and the largest of modem times, approach*
ing, to fact, the famons obelisks of Egypt One of
the moat celebrated in the world is only eight
feet longer than the one we are describing ; and,
thongh without a pedestal, and erected at Bell-
opolia as is supposed some four . centuries before
Moses was bom, it still stands erect challenging the
admiration and awakening the enthiuiasm of the
beholder. The Wool olielisk is to be mounted uoou
a pedestal of three plain bases, upon which rest a
molded l)a*e, the die, the neck.mold or plinth, and
the shaft The lower ba^e Is 17 feet 6 toehes square,
and 2 feet thick. This and the two sncceedtog
courses are each In two stones. The fourth, or
molded base and each above it are to a single stone.
In the curve of the mold is a military trophy cut in
the granite in aito relievo, cousistii^ of a sword
and acabbard and the hat of a Major-Gen.
eral handsomely grouped together. The die Is
tt feet square and 6 feet in height aloping In
form to correspond with the lines of the obelisk,
and at the comera au'l upper edges ornamented with
a carved molding. The n<H:k.mold is also embel-
liahed in like manner. The design, the molding,
and ornamentation are all harmonious, and to airict
accord with Egyptian architecture. The design will
be copyrighted. The weight ot the obeiisk quarried
will be 150 tons, or one-half the entire structure. It
iM, of course, one solid stone, and Is heavier by at
least lUO tons than any monolith ever quarried and
chiseled in this country. It will be broa^t to Troy
upon a barge, and thence drawn to Oakwood by
meana of rollers and the multiplication .of powe^
through the use of the capstan. It would require
more than 100 yoke of cattle to draw It to its place
of destination. Made of the moat enduring Mala*
granite, nothing but an act of vandalism or the ahock
of an earthquake can overthrow the obellak, much
leas overturn the pedestal on which it is to staacL
The inscription* will occut>y all sides of -the die.
On the front facing the carriageway, the names of
"John Ellis Wool and "Sarah Moulton" will be
cut with the d.ites of their birth and death. On the
reverse side will be a brief and almnle dedicatory iik-
aeriptioD. written by the venerable William Cttlleu
Bryant, while upon the opposite faces -will appear
the order and date of Gen. Wool'a promotions, be-
ginning with the zrsde of Captain and dsatog with
that of Major.Geoeral, and a list of ths hattlas In
which the veteran took part.
< The site upon which the monument Is to stand Is
one of tne most -^cturesque and eommandtog to the
cemetery. It is Ideated some thouaand feet north of
the present place of tmrial of Gen. and Mra. Wool,
whither their remalna are to be removed, upon an
elevated point upon the weatem bonders of the
cemetery, overlooking the valley of tike Hud.

"OoT Aldermen," a ftrar-aet humoroTU sketch,
adapted by Mr. Jame* B. Baanlon, of Chteago, from
a German comedy, wa* laat night mad* known to a
large andicnse at the Park Theatr*. Iu story
Is a simple one. Ur. Lj/man Drake, a rerired
merchant la elaeted an alderman, and form*
a reeolv* to eapoose the cause ot reform upon his
entrance Into the board, and break ap a "ttog" of
which four oth*r Ald*rmen *rath* conspicuous mem-
^rs. As Ur. Drake Is unused to the ways ot politi-
cians, snd as he is a man ot little patience and
somewhat apprehenalv* about his health, his
course is anything bnt smooth, and it ends to fallur*.
Jtfr. IFilntont Bimen, a aort of " boss " to polities,
and represenutive of a now happily extto^
species, attempts to instract the would-be re-
former DraJbe to the mysteries of the ''ring,"
and is sealotuly supported by Mr. Anson Car-
ter, an Alderman with asptr-itlons ; Mr. Patrick
CMa ley, an Irish Alderman, with a rich broene and
strong prejudices, and Jfr. Diedriek BuelMerger, a
German Alderman, who controls sn Important Ger-
man element In a eonferenee and subsecmsut eanens
the methods ot these poUtieUns an discovered by
-Drats snd Dr. Bernard Clanry, his ally in the board i
but by s spedes of cumulative voting peeullsr to
this particular ring, the nform element is overraled
and completely dlacouraged, and an extravagant
appropriation for the conrt-bonae dome adopted.
The wlvea of the Aldermen, and aeveral young
persons ot both sexes, swell the cast ot eharaetets,
until they number aoont a aeon, and, aa each one has
a responsibility to lay upon Aidsnaan .Draie'*
shoulders, that nervous reformer has s hard time of
It and is to tba end glad to go out ot politics and es-
cape distraction of mind or death from apoplexy. Mr.
Jam** Lewis, who appeared as Drake, waa admlnbly
" made up " for the part and his personation
evinced careful study, and provoked a large atiare of
the abundant laughter which accompanied the npre-
ientatian. Ur. Le Moyne was £tm<y the "Boss."
Mr. T.' O. Biggs -was a capital O'-lfalfey,
both to dr*«* and action, and hi*

who Is really a good plaver and possessed of great
nerve ordinully, naturally felt chagrined. Some-
body offered to bet $100 to $5 that Knight would
win the match, and afterward repeated It while War-
ble was playing for the 13 ball. Warble excitedly
said he would bet $25 that he would win
this game. He played Instantly and missed, leaving
the ball to the " jawa." Knight played and missed.
and everybody Isushed at both men, who wtre now

WIDE BtPUTATION.
" Ted" Almonte, one of the clowns attached
to Bamum's show, died suddenly last evening at
hi* re*ld*ne*, Na 121 Third.* veuue, from* compli-
cation of diseases. He performed at the matlnie on
Tneeday, and vaa apparently to his, usual health
and spirits. While preparing to go home, after the
termination of the perf ormanoe, he waa aelzed with
patoato the region of tne heart Hoping to be able to
teappaartotheringdoring the evening performance,
he decided to remain at the American Institute
building, and was there found early in the evening
by Mr. FrmnkWhlttaker, suffering extreme nalo. He.
waa taken by that gentleman to his home, where he
lingered nnni 6 P. M. yesterday. Edwin Mlddleton
Almonte, for such waa hia real name, waa bom in
England about 35 yean ago. When 20 rears of age
he adopted the profeaalon of drcus clown. His first
engagement was with a circus owned by Frederick
Geonetxe, with whleh he traveled a short time. He
aub**qnetttly joined Ben Bonn's circus, and aftur sev-
ering Bis eoniiection with It tnveled for three seasons
with Sanger'a combtoatlou. He came to this country
in 1871, with Howe Sb Uuahing's Circus, and having
traveled two seasons with it returned to England, to
accept the poaltion of leadtog clown in Hengfer's Clr-
ctu. A year later be again emigrated to tbia coun-

Circus. About three rears ago he sccompanied
Cherinl's eombtostlon through several of the
Central American countries, and on ntumiug
to this City was engaged by Mr. Bamum.
Almonte waa regarded aa one of the cleverost clowns
to the profession, his penonal appearance alone
being ca]eula.ted to create hearty laiighter. His head
waa nnnd and hla mouth unusually expansile. His
favorite ring costume consisted of ao exceedingly
baggy overall of variegated colors, embellished
with the letters of the alphabet In addition to his
talents aa a clown, he possessed more than ordinary
ability as a tumbler, and displayed his agility in
that line whenever the circus company appeared
in lofty tumbling acts. Almonte was a gnat favor.

▼Ulng for an adjutment and Anai settleiaent hr

litigation between the company and the State.
The report and reeolntloii were nnanimoos-
ly adopted, and a senentt meeUnc of the
stockholders to Vote npon the prt^jKirttion of ac*
eeptanee was called, to be held at the office of the
company in this city on the 10th day of Jane next.
During the litigation between the State and the
company in re^gud to the grou t< celpta for
pasaenser tax, the company passed five
seml-annnal dividends on the stock , of the
Washington Branch ot the road, and a resolntlon
was adopted to^y that so t-oon as all the arrsDge-
ments required to be x>eTfected to give the act of the
Assembly aforesaid fall effect accordice to its tenor,
there s&all be dedared five temi-annaal dividends
of 5 per cent, on the stock of the Washington Branch.
It was also resolved that a dividend of 4 per cent.
be declared on the capital stocic of the main stem for
the half-year ended the 31st of March alt., payable
in the stock of the company on and after the 15th of
May pTOx., at the office of the Treasnror. Camden
Station, and that the transfer-books be closed on the
17th of April Inst., utd remain closed nntU the 15th
of May prox.
In connection with the recommendation of the
Finance Committee to declare the dividend In stock,
Mr. Garrett remarked that, althoosth daring
the present adminlstzvUoD, which had continued
for 20 years, the dividends had been nniformly in
cash— even dnring the great war— at 6. 8, 9, and 10
per cent, per year j yet the form proposed by the
committee was not at ail novel In the history of the
Biiltimore and Ohio Company. At various periods
priortol858,when the company needed money, rather
tban preu stiles of its oonds And secnrities, it
adopted the conservAtive plan of nsinK a portionof
its eaminiTs by borrowing the snm from the stock*
holders snd issuing therefof its stocic. A Inrge
amount of the cost of the rosd between
CniPberlxnd and tho Ohio Eiver was supplied
under this sjstem. In order to aid the Pltta-
bure and Connellsville, the Marietta and Cincinnati,
the Virginia Midland, and to construct the Chicago,
the Bsltimore 8hort Line, and the Cincinnati
and Baltimore Roads, and other enterprises
associated with iU interests and develop-
ment, tbe Baltimore and Ohio Company created a
floatlnir debt which it is the policy of the company
to liquidate rapidly. The company owns large
amonnts of the stocks and securities of its connect-
ing lines, some of which it will be desirable to hold
for the purpose of maintaining Interest and iuflc-
enee In regard to the policies and co-operative rela-
tions of those companies. But laree amounts
of the bonds of these comnanies now held can
properly be sold when sofflcienily advantajfeous
rates can be obuined for them. The company has
pursued so conservative a policy that it has hereto-
fore paid from its net eamlngB. throush tbe action of
its sinking fund and by pavments In cash from
its net earnings. $1J.,651,279 67 of mortgage
Indebtedness, and the anutial earnings upon
the present investments in iU sinking funds
and appropriations for the payments of
its mortgage Indebtedness amonnts at this
time to $582,000 annually. In pursuance of
this conservative policy, the committee has recom-
mended tbat n portion of the eaminirs realized with-
in the lastsix mouttut, viz., 4 per cent, beine $525,-
768. be used for the payment of the floating debt,
and that stock be Issued therefor. This dividend
will be pavitble In the common stock of the
company. This snm Is added to the capital,
on which no interest will be paid, bat
only such dividends aa may be declHred from the net
earnings, at the di cretton of the Directors, from
time to time on the capital stock, while the floating
debt has been materially decreused. This action
will insure its more rapid reduction.
The esmlngs for March on the main stem and
bmnches were $1,137,413 94. beioz $44,419 95
more than for the same month of the preceding year.
After the transaction of rouUne business tbe board
adjourned.
Pbilaoxlphia. Penn.. April 10,— The statement
of operations of the Delaware and Bound Brook
Hallroso for the first three months of this year was

A MOTHER'S STRANGE ACT,
IN A MOMENT OF INSANITY SHE HURLS HER
LITTLE SON FROM A BRIDGE INTO THE
RIVER.
From the JUUieauku TFiceonstn, AprU 5.
On Tuesday there came to tbe town a weU-
appearing, though evidently poor, woman, aged about
35 years, who told residents to whom she became
known ttiat her name was Mary Rtnk, that she was
a widow, and had until within a few days lived In
Chicago. Accompsnying her was her son Willie, an
intelligent and attractive lad. aired 5 years. Her de-
portment was quiet and orderly, and nothing de-
veloped to attract especial attention , to her until
about 7 o'clock last evening, when she was seen to
make an attempt to drown her little son, which, in
itsdeliberatenesa, was. horrible. At the hour named
the woman Rink, with her child, was crossine Geod
Hope Bridge. located at the mitl-dam of the Milwaukee
River, lu ttie town of Milwaukee, and when midway
she caught the lad in her arms, held him so that he
\va< unable to cling to her, then hurled him over the
miling and into the river about 10 feet below the
platfurm of the bridge. The cries for help utte<«d
by the terrified little fellow attracted the attention
of a Miss Messer. and hurrying townrd the bridge
she discovered the lad fighting death in the river
with all his little strength, while the woman
leaned unconcemedlv upon the bridge-rail watching
for his disappearance. For an instant Miss Messer
was paralyzed, then, recovering herself, she fled for
help. Meanwhile, the child, liattling to keep him-
self on the surface, was floated with the current for
fully 10 minutes, and at last, when life seemed oaite
extinct, was rescued by.a Mr. Croaker, who had been
harried to the river bank through the warning
raised by Miss Messer. At tbe point where
the boy was thrown in, the water is of an
average depth of 10 feet. Through lack of
proper care or nouri<ihment tbe little one Is
reduced to bare skin and bone, weighing not above
30 nounds- As soon as excitement resulting from
the rescae had subsided in a measure, attention was
turned to the mother, who had remained on the
bridge, a seemingly unconcerned si>ectator of what
was eolng on. She was taken into custody by Mr.
Messer, father of the young lady whose effort had
saved the child, and be ng arraiimed before Justice
Anson W. Butler on a charge of attempting to
drown her boy. said that she was guilty of the at-
tempt, but would give no reason for ber act. When
asked if she could furnish bail pending a formal ex-
am nation, she said ' No,' and. therefore, she waa
broucht to this city, and is now In the Connty JalL
The little victim of ber mad attempt is also in charge
of the jail aathorities."
A DELAWARE BITER SALUOX,
The Trenton (N. J.) Gazeiie of the 8th Inst
says: "Wo had the pleasure of seeing on Saturday
last, at the office of Major £. J. Anderson, Commis-
sioner of Fisheries of this State, a magnificent
salmon, which was taken in a shad net on Friday
nieht, in the Delaware Rirer, aboat two miles above
this city. It was 3 feet 6 inches In length, and
weighed 2314 txiauds after being out of the water
altout 12 hours. This fish is be^eved by fhe Com-
missioners of Fisheries to be a representative of the
fish placed in the tributaries of the Delaware from
lS73tol876. Dr. J. H. Slack, in 1872. hatched,
at his flsh-breedlng establishment, at Bloomsbury,
N. J., some salmon eggs furnished by Prof. Snencer
F. Baird. United States Fish Commissioner, and
placed 5,000 j)f the young fry in the Musconetcong
Creek, which empties into the Delaware a few miles
below PhillipKburg. In 1874 tbe State Fish Com-
missioners, headed by G. A. Anderson, Esq., succes-
sor to Dr. Slack, placed 100.000 salmon fry in the
various tributaries of the Delaware, and again in
1875apotber 100.000. In 1876, the State appro-
priation was used for stocking the inland waters of
the State with black bass, and for propagating shad
in the Delaware, the salmon stockinz beinesuspended
to await returns. In 1876 and 1877 large numbers
of young salmon were seen, of fro:n one to three
pounds weight, which had evidently never been to
the sea, but dnring 1877 a number of fish wet«
taken, on their way up the river to spawn, and
weighing from seven to ten pounds each. Encour-
Sgedbytnia indicsiion that the fish were returning
to the river, the Commissioners in 1877 placed 250.-
OOo salmon in the tributaries of the river, and the
amount of work done in this way, together with the
fish caucht in a river In which salmon never were
seen before, warrants the belief that in a few years
we shall have a supply of thib noble fish at oar very
doors."
A BOS2 O.V '• SOCIETT " ITEH,
TheBoston 5oc/e/^prints this piece of personal
intelligence : ** It Is but a short time ago that Boston
was iu danger of losing one of her leading belles,
M'ss B., of Tremont -street. This young lady, noted
for her superior intellect and culture, rare accom-
plishments, and personal charms, was about to be
wedded to a youns gentleman of tbe ^est. Happily
her better judgment prevailed, and ahe resolved to
sever an engagement which necessitated establishing
her permanent residence in a country distantly re-
moved from her family and friends, and where,
perhaps, she would not be as highly appreciated as
in her native city. It is now understood that Boston
society will continue to enjoy the refining influence
of Miss B.. whom it would surrender only with the
greatest reluctance."

The nUt for ibaolnte diyorce, by Mrs. Anxm
KvweH Bcafa»t Iforsnio D. Newell, wbieh has been
b«fotelbe eottvU ft nauber of times In Tuions pre-
liBia««7 sklxnlshet, was broofht to trial befote
Jodc* lAwmwa and a jnzy, in Fhrt Ht. of the Sn-
prvme Court, 7«st«rda7. The ease Is ono'Wbleb has
attracted mneh attantkm both bj reaaon of the
•odal ctandisff of the patties, who are well known in
this CitT and in Boatoa, and beeanse of Hxa. Mew-
eU's prominenee aa a tnltor In the latter
plare to obtain an aetata of about
$2,000,000 left bytbe lateWUliam H. Boaidman,
whose adopted danffht«r she dalma ^le was. Mr. and
Mrs. KeweU were married at Boston on June
6, 1805. Be was then a resident of thlsCity. where
bewaaalsoin aeclre bnsiness. They llred together
nntll JTone 20, 1871. Mrs. Kewell. in her com-
plaint, accnaes her husband of improper familiarities
with a dashincTovoc milliner named Candace M.
Olney. Those moral lapses are said to have ton-
flnned during the crealer portion of 1873 and 1874,
in this C^T. in Eoglaad, and elsewhere. In his an*
swer, Mr. Nei^aU pealttrelr denies the accusation,
and maka^ a eonater-diarte of a similar nature
against bia wife. He also says she abandoned him in
Jane, XS74, vlthont cause or provocation. In con-
elosion. he pniys for an absolute dlTorce from her.
Mr. and Mrs- Newell, who are middle-aeed i>er8ona,
irere in court yesterdsr. He was represeuted by
Ira Sbafer and J. H. V. Arnold. Her counsel are
CVUliaan Follerton and John A. Fellows. Ttiere was
the nsiuil opeDlng to the jaty. in which the CAse waa
Ktjtted in outline. Before iH conclusion tne court-
room was denaelr thronged by persoor, many of
whose faces are seen in quurt wLenever any piquant
bit of scnndal is lo be revealed. When the opening
speech had been flni«hed, everybody looked forward,
expectlnfr to b*ar Mrs. Newell's name called as that
9! the first witoesL To the astonUhraenc of all.
however, ex-Judge yullerton called Miss Candace M.
Olneyaa a witncM for the plalntifE. Thii wasre-
earded aa very daring, since, by calling Her. she be-
CM me his witneaa, and he cannot impeach her ve-
racity.
Miss OIney la a vivacious, rather good-looUng, and
very " smart " woman. aJboot 36 years of (uie. She
seemed given to a little of affectation, now and then,
not offensively but rather agreeably so. She was very
tohtef ally dressed. In answer to Inquiries, she said
she WBS Dom in Providence, B. L, and bad formerly
carried on the millinery business there ; for the past
10 years rhe has been living In this City ; she now
resides at No. 30 East i ourteenth-street, where she
carries on her bnsinees ; at one time she boarded
at the Spingler Home, and at another time
la Twenty-seventh-street. The witness was here
asked to remove her veil and did so: she said «rie
had become acqaaloted with Mr. Newell some 20 .tr
22 years ago ; sbe did not know whether she i.ad
been first introduced to him in Providence or in this
City; saw him in Providence quite treqaently; he
used to come to Arnold & Tibbets, wholesale mil-
Uoers, the employers of witness, he having had busl-
nsas with them ; the witness remembered Newell
calling on her only twice at Providence In 12 years,
buf may have seen him three or four times a year :
she saw Mm only once, on a Sunday, before his mar-
riase ; he was then anxious that she shouid take bis
sister into business with her; Newell's sister pro-
posed Boston, bat witness favored this City, and
flnally declined the offer; some of Newell's calls
were of a social, others of a business niitare ; he
nerer called on her at a hotel in Providence ; she
did go oot to lunch with him there and elsewhere ;
tbey wont together in a private carriase to a garden
partv at Cumberland when Mrs. Newell
was in Parla ; In the evening they re-
turned tn»n the nlace; last Summer the wit-
ness went to Boston with Newell and spent
the day there. The witness came to this City crom
providence on buaineaa, and opened her store here ;
before that she used to come here two or three times
a year ; did not always see Newell on such occasions,
though she did sometimes; witness stopped at Earle's
Hotel part of the time and at times ; don't know
where Newell boarded ; saw him, quite likely, at
Earle's.witness thinks — ^perhaps — sheaid; shestopped
at Earle's twice, but did not remember telling the
w^ter that tf Newell eanae ahe would meet him in
the parlor ; did not remember whether the call was
a bnainess or social visit ; he, very likely, called on
her at Power's Hotel.
Mr. Sbafer interposed aa objection to this course
of qneotloning shout matters which took place 10
years before the times specified in the complaint.
Judge Lawrence said he considered the questions
proper as part of the history of the relations between
the witness and the defendant.
Mr. FnOerton — I wlU come to New-York and to the
times feoentioned in the complaint by easy stages.
(To witness.] Didn't Newell on one occasion meet
yon at the boat, and escort you to Power's Hotel t
A.— [don't remember; I think it possible such a
thing occurred.
Q. — ^Von may have permitted him, a married
man, to escort you to a hotel, and you remember
nothing about it f A. — I think it never occurred.
Q.-^Can you swear It never occurred 7 A. — I don't
remember.
S.— Do you say it never occurred T A. (Hesltat-
7) — You have my answer, I don't retuember.
The witness would not or could not give an an-
swer of yes or no to the question. In zeeponse to
further inquiries, she said she did not rememoer how
many days she had staid at Earie's Hotel on one occa-
sion, but did not think Newell had paid her bill at
the hotel ; she saw him occasionally in the parlor, but
did not sit side by side with him at dinner every day ;
witness left Providence in March. 1868; she and
Newall left the hotel together on two occasions, once
when she went to take possession of her place in
Pourteenth-street, and again to go to the theatre to
hear Mme. Blstori ; he took hertothe theatre just as
any gentleman might invite a lady to go ; she went
to the theatre witb him occasionally — once or twice a
year ; witnesa had remained at the St- Denis Hotel
In the Sining of 1868 for a few days ; witness
opened her place in Fourteenth-street on March 1,
lt^68 ; she lodged there, and had her meals sent from
the St. Deniaor Bigot's; sometimes took grapes and
other fruit with Mewell ; occasionally took aome-
thing more substantial ; at times took dinner with
bim at the St. Denia; the waiter's name was James;
ooee. on returning from church, witness took supper
at Delmonico's ; went to Dr. Chapin's church, some-
times to Dr. Hepworth'c and, at times, to Mr.
Beechi>r's Hanghter} ; witness is not in the habit of
drinking wine, but took champagne with Newell
once ; haa breakfaated with the latter ; never
want to hia room to accompany him to
breafc&st, and never entertained him In
her room, though he has passed through there ; he
used to call twice a week, sometimes oftener, some-
times on busineas. sometimes socially : Newell was
the landlord of witness' house, but had no key to
her rooms : at first he was in partnership with her.
hut is not now, thouii^ they have busineas relations
together : witneaawent witn him to the Centennial,
hut returned the same evening : happened to be on
the same Sound ateamer with him once, accidentally ;
went np the North River with Newell some years
ago on the night boat to Albany, and stopped
at the .I>elavan ; this waa simply on a pleas-
ure excursion ; witness returned at night ;
Newell's wife was then at Paris ; attended
a clam-bake with him at Silver Spring. 20 minutes
out of Providence, last Summer : never went to
Europe with him but once; witness always bought
her goods in Europe through the house of Newell &
Smith. A letter from the witnesa. dated Sept. 16.
1867. waa read. In it the writer discussed the ques-
tion aa to whether marriage withoat love is virtuous.
Some other letters from her referring to the subject
of love were also produced.
Tramah H. Cornwall, wfao waa in Miss 01ney*s em-
ployment, was the next witness. His testimony was
unimportant, aa was also that of John Bird, a waiter
at Bigot's, and James Spear, the head whiter at the
bt. Denis. The trial will be resumed to-day.

8BCBBTABT SSERMAITS MISSION,
ANOTHER DAY OP CONFERENCES AND MYSTERY
— ^HOW RESUMPTION IS TO BE ASSURED —
WHERE THE BITCH IS.
Secretary Sherman held aeTSral more confer-
ences witn bankers yesterday. In the moxnixig he
was Tislted at the Bank of Commeree by aome of
those who attended the conference of tite previous
day. and by others who wished to learn bia views or
expresa theirs on the subject of resumption, and in-
formal diaeua^ns of his propositloa took place.
From 1 until 4 P. M. he waa doieted in the Sub-^
Treasury with the members of the old ayndlcate.
He again refused to talk with reporters, and placed
an extra seal of aeereey on the months of those whom
ha admitted into his confldeoce, so that it was im-
possible to obtain particulars of the arguments or
aoggestions advapoed on either aide at any of the
meetings. The Sect^Btary's bnsiness, howerer; is no
secret. With some additional modifieatlona, it was
fully given in ThsTi UBS yesterday. Hebellevea that
he can atHlearryouttheproTixioDsof theReanmptlon
law on the 1st of January next, provided the banka
of the oountry will help him to $100,000,000 more
gold than in the natural course of thinga he would be
able to Accumulate. He has come here to feel the
pulse of the New. York bankers before taking defluite
action. His idea Is to throw himself, as it were, upon
the patriotiam or self-interest of the banking com-
manity, and ask them to assist him by taking low-
interest bonds, and gtvlDg in lien their guarantee to
fnmish him an equivalent in gold' by Jan. L He
faaamet with the heartiest offers of oo^pertftion
The New-York financiers have expressed their wil-
lingness to enter into the project without hope, of
profit, which was one of the Secretary's, conditions,
but they ask in return that they shall be held safe
from possible loss. This the Secretary is willing to
concede. The hitch is as to vrhitt terms or prices
will secure the desired meau. It is on this point ihat
all the discussion has taken place, and op to last
evening no agreement had been arrived at.
THE DEATH OF AN OLD MISER,
HOW BARBARA ALLEN LIVED AND DIED — A
RICH OLD WOMAN WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO
BE A PAUPER.
The fact was reported in The Times yester-
day that a poorly-clad woman had died in an am-
bulance on Tuesday nij:ht while being con-
veyed to the City Hospital from the ladies'
waitlna-room In the Fulton Ferr)--house, where
she had been seized with an apopletic fit.
It waa ascertained yesterday that the woman's name
was Barbara Alien, that she was supposed to have
been very poor, and resided in a room on the ton
floor of the house No. 141) Mudlsoo-street, in this
City. The i>eople from whom she rented the room
knew little about their teuant's history. She told
them that she was an Englishwoman, that t-he had
been divorced from her husband about 18 years aeo,
and tbat he was Cnptain of a vessel plyLni; between
New-York and Liverpool. When foand la the ferry-
house she had with her a basket contnlntntc scraps of
broken meat and bread, which led to the belief that
she was a beggnr. Yesterday, ou searching
the body at the Raymond-Street Morgue,
Keeper McGuire founa in the pocket of an
inside dress $15 07 in money, and a bank-book show-
ingthat she had $1,.9U5 88 to her credit in the
BUecker-Street Savings Bank, the last deposit hav-
Imr been made on Jan. 1. 1878. Sewed up in her
clothes were found slips of paper giving the num-
bers of bank-lxxiks and the names of banks in
which she is suppo ed to nave money. The banks are
as follow* : Seaman's Savings Bank. Bleeeker-Street
Savmjrs Bank. Brooklyn Savinars Bank. Broadway t^av-
in^Baak,aQdtheBowerr Savings Bank. The first de-
posit made in the Bleeeker-Street ^vings Bank was
in 1861, and so money has since been drfiwn out.
Coroner Simms ordered apost-mortem examination of
of the body, by which it was ascertained ihnt the
deceased, who was about 75 years of afre, had died of
apoplexy. The house at which Mrs. Allen lajit
boarded is the private residence of Mr. John Clift, a
civil engineer. His wife is a very charitable woman,
and for several years past she was accustomed to
assist Mrs. Allen In a small way. Miss Clift, her
daughter, said last evenini; that the late Mrs. Allen
was too proud to beg, and she had never know^her
to solicit alma, altboa^n she had been acoostomed to
receive proffered assistance jTratefoUy. About two
months ago the old lady came to Mra.^lift and
desired to take a room, and board there. Mrs. Clift
ffranted her the privilege, and Mrs. Alien paid her
board rej^arly. Miss Clift said that the deceased
had been in the habit of receiving assistance from St.
Paul's Episcopal Church. She hod frequently ex-
pressed the fear that she would some day die of
apoplexy, and exacted a piomise from Mrs. Clift that
ahe "would not bary her in the Potter's Field." Her
room contains several old barrels and boxes, which
had not been disturbed last eveninff. Miss Clift said
that bad her mother known that Hrs. Allen had so
lance a sum of money, she would not have allowed
her to wander around alone in her old age.

to the constitution and by-laws were presented. It
wasj>ropoaed to change article 2 of the constitution
by strlUnff out the words that make It necessary for
a member of the society to practice upon the prinei-
nle timiiia rimilibxtt euroTUur, and by substituting
others to the effect that any properly accredited pby-
alcian residing In the county, "who has given satisfac-

LAWTEBS — OTHEB 11ATTEB8 OT TS-
TEKBST.
The Board of Trade and Transportation met
yesterday. Ur. F. ^. Tburber. from the Committee
on Railroad Transportation, offered a long report on
Congressman Bcs«an*s biU for the regnlat&oxiot
inter State commerce, ^le eommlttee spprova par-
ticularly Qf those sections whieh proride a tariff of
rates. whiSi shall be uniform to all shippers, and'
prohiUts special contraeta in every form; also the
pnblicatton of such tarilE. so tiiat the public gen-
erally may be famOIarwith the ratea. They hold
thatcommon carriers hare no right to ^seximinate
in faror of one person or firm at the expense of
another. While tt may not be praotieable in the
transportation of freight to apply the same rules
which govern the management of our x>ostal system,
namely, that a siagle letter shall be carried as
cheaply as 100 or 1,000. it is both practicable and
necessary tbat a qnuitlty line shall be drawn, beyond
which, no alilpper ahall receive a lower rate. The
committee are of the opinion that the very large
class of shippers who send less than one car-load at a
time are entitled to much more equitable treatment
than they have in the past received. In condosion.
Mr. Tburber offered the following resolution, which
was adopted :
R^ttolved, That the bill for the regulation of
mter-State commeree, introduced bjr Hon. John H.
Reagan, and which is now pending in the House of
Bepreeentatives, in most of its provisions meets with
the hearty approval of this board ; but we are of the
opinion tiitft iu order to muke tt eCTective a board
of emnpetent Commiasioners should be provided to
supervise its workings. Pnitber. that the "pro rata"
feature of Eaid bill, though equitable in principle, is
so difBeult to put into practical operation that It
may safely be omitted for the present.
Mr. Tburber said that the committee had also ex-
amined Senator Thurman's Faclflc Railroad bill, and
approved of it as eminently fair to both the railroads
and the public. Mr. Simon Stem, from the Com-
mittee on Legislation, said %hat his committee bad
had a hearing before the House Railroad Committee
of the Legislature on the subject of the bill which
they had introduoed creating a Board of Railroad
Commissioners. Their principal opponent was Hon.
Chauncey M. Depew, representing the New-York
Central Railioad. In addition to the old arguments
Mr. Depew asserted tbat any member of the Board
of Railroad Commissioners of Maaaachusetta, to
whom the committee had referred, would say, if
Biked, that that body bad effected but little good for
either the State or the railroads. Mr. Stern said
that he subsequently wrote to Hon. Charles Francis
Adams, Chairman of the board, to ask whether he
entertained private opinions different from those
promulgated In the annual reports of the board. He
had received a reply from Mr. Adams in which that
gentleman uses this language :
** I am surprised at what you tell me about Mr.
Depew's arguments. As to whether the commission
has beep of prHCtical eood I decline to express an
opinion. That must I5e indged from the record. Yet
I will say that the evicenr^ 1 have received so far has
been very erutifying- If Mr. Depew says that I say
that the board hax effected but little good he is
guiltr of a piece or gratuitous impertinence. Accus-
tomed as I am to the cheek of rail ■ ay lawyers, this
rather takes my breath away.** [Great langhter]
Mr. Stem continued to the effect that the commit-
tee had presented more facts and fuller arguments
this year than ever before. Some members of the
Legtslatnre bad said to Mr. Stem that they did not
see how the report coald be otherwise than favora-
ble, yet he feared for the fate of the bill In the Sen-
ate Railway Committee. The Chairnuui of that com-
mittee Is Mr. Wagner, the palace car manufncturer,
and several other members are pledged 10 the rail-
roads. On this account, the speaker would scarcely
venture to expiess much of anoi»ethat the bill will
this year become a law. A growing public opinion
in favor of the measure has, however, been created
throughout the i>tate which may next year be suffi-
ciently strong to carry it tluough both housea.
The rtport was accepted.
Mr. H. K. Miller, from the Committee on Ocean
Transportation, reported favorably on a communica-
tion from the Boston Board of Trade urging co-oper-
ution in securing reforms in the law, and in consular
practice relating to the ^hijipmg and discharge of sea-
men abroad. The report was a<lopied.
Mr. A. B. Miller, from the Commiitee on Terminal
Facilitiea, reported the passage of the Belt Rail-
road ordinance, and directed the attention of the
board to the " necessity of urging upon the proper
authorities the great importance of the cxtenhion of
We«t and South streets to the exterior line fixed by
the Lesislature with the least possible delay, in order
that a wide commercial avenue be providtd for the
present and inereating wanta of the bnsiness of our
City."
The report was adopted.
Mr. George T. Stearns, of Boston, addressed the
board by permission- He urged that the only way
to secure justice fr6m the railroads waa for the peo-
ple to deprive them of their enormous power and
Uke the management into their {the people's] own
hands. This, be thonght. they had a right to do, a
milway being only an improveid public highway. He
said that, if left to themselves, the railway compa-
nies wonld continue to rob the community to pay
large dividends on watered stock.
Ur. Kemp offered the following, which were adopt-
ed, and copies ordered sent to the Governor and
Legislature:
Hhereat, A bUl haa been introduced in the legis-
lature of this State exempUng from taxation real
estateto the extent to whieh it may be mortgaged,
end imposing the aame amount of tax upon the mort-
gage, and
mieretu. The mortgage Is previooslytaxed upon the
capital thus invested, theretore
Jiesolted, That in the opinion of this board such a
law would be inequitable and tmjuat in its workings,
and th*?rpfore ought not to be enacted.
/fMoIced, That the cUnae in this proposed law ex-
empting corporations loaning money on real estate
from the operations of this law is a discrimination
against the large class of business men, who. in the
course of their business fin<t it necessary to take
mortgages as security for loans, and Is another rea-
son why it should not become a law. It is further
Resolved, That in the opinion of this board, the en-
actment of such a law wonld work great hardsbtp to
borrowen of money by diverting capital to other
States where such laws are not in force ; and also in
causing all mortea^e loans which are due, but which
the lenders allow to run, to be at once called in, in
order to avoid onerooa taxation.
Mr. Channel asked the indorsement of the board
for the Commercial Travelers' Association. This is
an organisation recently started throughout the
country with a view to securing special rates on rail-
roads and steam-ships and in hotels, and also tn found
reading-rooms for the use of the members. The
subject wns referred to the Executive Committee for
Investigation.
The resignation of George B. Satterlee as a mem-
ber of the board was accepted, and Mr. R. F. Austin,
of Fitch Sn Austin, was elected to fill the vacancy.
The board then adjourned.
THE PAViyo OF FIFTH'ATENUE,
While Commissioner Caiiipbell, of the De-
partment of Public Works, waa engaged yesterday
In opening bids for paving scTcral thoronghfares and
constructing sewers, he waa served with a copy of
the resolution which Was adopted by the Board of
Aldermen on Tnesday, directing him to postpone the
awarding of a contract for paving Fiftb-avenne from
FiftT-nlnth to Seventy-second-street until tboLeela-
latnre takes action npon the bill of Senator Hogan
providing for laying macadamized pavement upon
the same avenue from Waver ley-place to Nlnetieth-
streeL After reading the resolntion, which had been
signed by Mayor Ely, Mr. Campbell post-
poned the opening of proposals for the work
until April 16. The blU of Senator Hogan
takes the whole matter out of the hands of
Commissioner Campbell, and authorizes the appoint-
ment of a commlRsion to take charge of the work.
Whether the propoMd commission can permit a pat-
ented pavement to be pat down on Fifth-avenue Is a
question tbat is now eagerly discussed among inter-
ested parties. Under the preaent law no such pave-
ment can be laid. Commissioner Campbell has
asked the Corporation Counsel to furnish him with
an opinion as to what course he should pnrsae un-
der the circumstances. It is worthy of note that,,
some time since, the Aldermen, by a three-fourths
vote, adopted a resolution authorizing Mr. Campbell
to pave Fifth-avenue from Fifty-ninth to Seventy-
second streets, and that the resolution directing him
to postpone act lop on the matter was passed by a
Tote of oaly 13 to 6, as follows :
AJtrmottre— Aldermen Roberts, Bennett, Carroll,
Erhardt, Foster. Gimtzer, Hall« Keenan, ]>wis, Phil-
lips, Saner, Slevla, and Waefaner.
Atff^atte^Aldermen Btglfn, Gedney. Kleman,
Morns, Perler. and Pinckney.
A three-fourths vote is necessary to pass resolu-
tions involving an expfpditoro of pabUe money, and
it may be that a like vote is necessary to zeseind such
resolatioiis,

LOOKISa FOR HIS UOTBBR.
Superintendent Walling, About a week ago,
received a letter from Lafayette. Ind., asking for
information of the whereabouts of a woman named
Mary A. Haggerty. The writer stated that the in-
quiry was made In behalf of a young man named
John Haggerty, who had been sent West wtieu a
child by some charitable institution in Brooklyn. He
could not remember the street Us mother lived in,
but he thought it was aomewhere in "South
WUlIamslmrg-" The Suoerinteodent communicated
with Chief Campbell, of the Brooklyn Police, and
that official turned the matterover to Capt. Woglom,
of the Fifth Precinct, with orders to And Mrs. Haa-
gerty if possible. The Captain had so clue to woric
on. there being no atich locality known aa " South

THE PRESERVATION OF MOUNT TERNON.
A private letter from a mtniber of the Wom-
en's Association for the Pieservatioa of Mount
Vemou. who recently visited that historic spot,
contains an interesting account of tbe reforms and
improvements in tbe management of the estate
nnder toe new Superintendent. The writer says:
"The evening of our deli^htfal day at Mount Vernon
was spent with the Snpeiintendent, CoL Hollings-
worth, who, without our sucgestlng it, brought in
his account-books and asked if we woald like to ex-
amine them. I can assure you that the hour spent
upon them was full of interest and satisfac-
tion. Col. Hollingsworth's aim has been to
reduce exx»enses to the minimum, to cancel
all l&debtedness. and to increase the In-
come. The sale of photographic views, together
jrlth article made of Mount Vernon wood, such as
canes and paper-knives, furnished small additions to
the inrome; larger receipts were obtained from the
choice bouquets and cnt-fiowers of the greeu-hoose ,-
but most pre Stable of all has been the lunch table
spread-daily In Mrs. Washington's kitchen, for the
refreshment of the noon-ilay visitors. From the
beginning. Col. Hollingsworth haw made It a nrindple
to purchase uothinic that ronld be raised nn the
estate, and his books reveal the change of manage-
ment in this respect. The debts, which were numer-
ou% and some of them of long standing, were all paid
previous to 1876. so that the large income of that
year, over expenses, hss been added to the endow-
ment fund — investtfd safely, pan of it in Government
bend*. Larger receipts are anticipated this season
from tbe new boat, which wiU make the trip in much
shorter time, and without stopping at Incermediate
points." ^

•Washikotok, AprU 11.— Both branehes
•f Oonicrma were oeenpled to-dsr *» *•»• «">-■
■idaration of the Appraprlation bills. Th^ Sen-
Ms ai^>OM>d of what la known u the Little De-'
fleteney bill, passisg It (abitMitUnr u it wu
reported to the Senate by the Committee on
▲pptopiiati<<Da. The Hon» flniabed the Pen-
169a bill after a protracted debate upon
the proposition to abolish the present
»1 ilwii of disbursing pensions through
agents, and requiring futnre payments
to be made by warrant tbrongh the United
States Treasurer. This pronodtion was re-
ported by the Committee on Appropriations,
nia was antajiom'Kd by the Committee on Pen-
■iraa with a proposition continuing the present
system, Bzing the ealary of Pension Agents at
t4,000 per annnm, and limiting their fees to
15 cents per name, ont of which all office and
ineidental expenses are to be paid. Under
this proposition it is claimed the aggregate
expense oC disbursing pensions wBl be
xedneed from $216,000 per annnm to
8206.000. The Committee on Appropriations
straggled hard to seenre the transfer to the
ddted States Treasurer, but the House, by a
very decid«<l -rote, adopted the proposition of
flra Committee on Pensions. An amendment
ms added to the bill requiring that in fnture
En the appointment of Pennon Agents, men who
hsTO been wounded and crippled in the military
or naval service of the United States shall be
■elected.
There are four regular appropriation bills yet
(o be renorted by the House Committee on Ap-
propriations, namely, the Sundry CItU, the
Aimy, the Indian, and the Deficiency bills. So
many deficiency billa have been presented
during the present session that the opinion
Tery generally prevails that the Little Be-
floieney bill, now pending between the two
bouses. Includes all the estimates f or Veflcieneies
not yet provided for. This is a mistake. The
Committee on Appropriations have not yet dis-
posed of the estimates for the general defldsn-
des for the current fiscal year in
the several departments of the Gorern-
ment, and have now before them deficiency
sstimates amonnting to nearly $5,000,000.
tn addition to thesa there wiS be deficiencies
presented by the Committee on Kaval Affairs,
from the several bureaus of the Navy Depart-
ment, smoootinK to about $3,500,000. The
committee will b«gin the consideration of the
deficiency eetlmatea to-morrow. If the Com-
mittee on Appropriations of the last House had
ixoreised ordinary intelligence in the prepara-
tion of the appropriation bills, or had man-
fully acknowledged their blunders and
general Incapacity by correctlne their
>llls when palpable omissions were
Mrfnted ont during the discussions that took
»laee in the House, the present Congress
rould not have been called upon to pass a balf-
lozen deficiency bills, and emphasis would not
kare been given to their lack of ordinary busi-
Deas capacity. When all the deficiencies which
Congress , at the present session will be called
opoa to pass are added up, it win be found that
the economy about which Democratic orators
boasted during the last Presidential campaign
was the veriest sham.
BLAIRS ELECTORAL RESOLUTION.

"Washington, ApiH 11. — ^Mr. Montgomery
Blair does not seem to be any nearer the realiza-
tion of his dearest ambition than he ms a month
■e^ Nobody here takes any stock in his idiotic
resolution regarding: the Presideney, and
respectable Democrats and BepnUicans
ilike join in denouncing all further at-
tempts to interfere with the deeisioii of
the Sleetoml Tribunal. In the Senate, to-day,
Ur. Dennla, by request, presented the resolu-
tions in question, aa passed by the Mary-
land Legislature. In doing so, however, hs
dissented in strong terms from their con-
tents, and declared that there was neither wis-
lam nor propriety in reopening the old issue.
Continuing In the same strain, he made a warm
•ppeal for more thorouarh paeifioation, and eon-
eluded by a motion that the resolutions be sent
to the Judiciary Committee. This was adopted.
After his speech, the Senator from Maryland
was congratulated upon his Independent course
by a number of his colleagues and by the Vice-
PiMldent '

Washington, April 11.— Eeoent pnbUo»-
dons in Tax Times and elsewhere regarding
the niggardly course of Democratic Congress-
men in regard to the public schools of the Dis-
trict have induced a number of BepubHean
B«Dators to take the matter in hand.
T^day, In the Senate, a motion was
made to amend the Deficiency bill under
consideration by 'appropriating, in addition to
other items, the $75,000 necessary to keep
Qm schools open. It was opposed by a nmnber
of ultra DemocraJ^ perhaps because "hundreds
of eslored children are receiving excellent edu-
cation in the pub:io institutions of theD istrict.
In spite of this- opposition, however, the amendr
ment wa» passed by a rote of 29 to 22, and un-
IsM the Democratic Bouse refuses to conenr the
(choela will be continued as usual.

8t>eeial OCvoteh to A* SnhTork tUua,
Washington, April 11.— The Gould-Hun-
tingdon party mads an efFort to-day, thxpngh
Mr. Hartridge, of Georgia, to have the Faeifla
Railroad Sinking Fund bill taken txota, the
Speaker's table and referred te the Committee
on the Judiciary. This was defeated through
objections made by Mr. Cox. of If ew- York, and
others. Under the rules of the House, buiinesB
on the Speaker's table cannot bt reached until
after the morning hour, except by unanimous
consent. When business on the table is reached
in regular order, it is within the control of the
majority, and may be referred to committed or
taken np and passed. It was generally under-
stood that there would be no morning hotir to-
day, as the Pension bill was the unfinished
business, and its consideration would occupy
the entire session. The friends of^e Fnndine.
bill desire to take it from the table and put
It on its passage without reference to
any committee, and with this in view
will resist all attempts to reach bnsinesa en the
table until Monday, when an effort "wUl be made
to pass It under a suspension of the rules. The
bill cannot be reached to-morrow, as Rridar is
devoted to the consideration of the priyate cal-
endar, and nothing is allowed t$ interfere with
that order. One reason why the opponepts of
the bill desire to have it referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary is ' tha^ that
committee will not be caUsd upon for reports
for a couple of weeks, and the Oould-Huntmg-
don lobby would have the advantage which that
period of time would give to operate upon mem-
bers. The Committee on Pacific BaUroads will'
be the next committee called, and if the effort
to pass the bill on Monday imder suspension of
the rules should fail, it can be referred to the
Committee on Pacific Bailroads by a majority
and reported iMck to the House when that com-
mittee is called.

gentlemen br Messra. Banks and Hewitt, to hear
the Btatexnent of M. Ijeon Chotteau. The meeting
was oiganlied by calling Geo. Banka to the chair.
He stated that the object of M. Ohottean'a visit was
to proenre an extension and permanent enlargement
of the eommerelal relations between France and the
United States. That fcentleman was a member of
the eommlttee organised in Fraiioe for that pnrpoae.
asking the cooperation of the dtifsns of the Uiited
Statea. ' Gen. Banks aald it might be praetieable tor
gentlemen here to rassest a movement In that direc-
tion, bat it would be well first to haar what M.
Chotteau had to say on the snhject.
M. Chottaan then read a short address, in the
eoazaeof whlehhesdd: "Wethlnkln Fails that

"Washington, April 11.— Mr. Plninb, in
behalf of the Senate Committee on PubHe
Lands, to-day reported a substitute for the two
bills heretofore introduced by Senators Booth
and Ingalls, for the relief of settler* on lands
supposed to be within: the railroad
grants, but afterward thrown outside of
the double minimum limits by reason
of ehaoges of route, *A& The snbstltnts provides

dren, if still In poaseaaioh of the land, absll be entl'
tied to repayment of the - differenee between the
price paid and the Government minimum price of
aald land, provided that It would, if vacant at the
time of applleatiott for repayment, be sabjeet to asle
or entry at the minlmnm rate of $1 25 per acre. The
blU also allows homeatead aettlera who have been
reatrieted to 80 acres, to enter an additloiial tract
of 80 acres adjoining the land embraced in the origi-
nal entry, or, if they or their widowa and orphan
children ao elect, they may anrrender the original
entry for eancellatlan, and therenpon be entitled to
enter 160 acres under the Homestead laws else-
where, wlthont payment of additional feee, and thdr

liONDON, AiH»1 12.— The Dtflfy Ttiegrt^h .
hu the following special ffispaiteh from
"Wenna, dated ThtiTsdsly, at midnight: "I
learn that an ofBeUkl di^patoh has been
reeeiTed from Berlin to the effect
that Prince Bisnarek, In eohaequsneer of news
from St. Petenburg, condders it possible that
a prelimlnanr conferenea of Ambassadors red-
dent there might be held to-day or to-morrow."
The Agenee Buue of St. Petersburg pub- '
lished the f olio wing annonneement last evening :
"An active exchange of communications is pro-
ceeding under tha moderating, infiuence of .
Germany, with the view of arriving at a
pacific understanding, the natural path to
which would be a congress. The iui-
proved aspect^ of affairs has developed so
as to justify hope of the speedy attainment of
a favorable issue, if England does, not raise
fresh obstacles."
" The Pott publidies ths following dispatch
from Berlin : " Germany -has not only re-
fused Russia's request to guarantee the
neiitrallty of Atistria in the erent
of war, but is further reported to
have declared that she is prepared to inter-
fere if any attempt is made to hinder Austria
from protecting her interests."
The TiTntt correspondent at St Petersburg
says: '.'Notwithstanding the gloomy views M
leading Russian newspapers it is believed in of-
ficial drcles that the congress will shortly meet.
The correspondent adds that be has reason to
believe this conviction has a pretty solid foun-
dation. Germany has not abanddned the inten-
tion of ndng her influence in favor of peace.
The "Vienna dispatch to the Tima states that
Ansb4a, in tiie written statement of bervieita
which was sent to St- Petersburg, not only in-
nsted on the European character of the ques-
tions at issue, but distinctly rejected the idea of
a separate settlement.
The Central Seal publishes a telegram whidi
purports to be a summary of the circular ac-
companying Prince Gortschakoff's reply to Liord
Salisbury, but which rather seems to be a re-
ply to Austria's objections. The telegram
says : " Prince Gortschakoff endeavors to
refute Aiutria's objections, point by point, and
declares that Busda has fully redeemed her
uromises to Austria, even at the risk of
alieimting the Servians. He expresses surprise
that Austria has not seized the opportuni^ to
cheek disordei^ in Bosnia and Henegovlna,
either by annexation or byimpodng rdorms.
Prince tiortsehakoff, in conclusion, suggests a
setUement on the basis of a congress by
separate agreement between the various Courts
as to the modifications to be introdoeed in the
Treaty of Paris, and disclaims aU responsibility
for further complications if the powers refuse
to agree to this course. The authenticity of the
foregoing is doubtfuL"
A special to the DaS}/ Next from "Vien-
na says tiie Porte has asked Austria what
would happen if Russia indsted on en-
forcing the Treaty of San Stefano. Austria
replied that she would not protect European in-'
teresta singl^handed. but would protect her
own Interests most efficiently.
The Daily TeltQraph't Vienna dispatch says
Russia's answer to Austria condsted
of verbal confidential assurances. The
correspondent's informant said that Aiutria's
podtion was not such aa to involve the question
of peace or war. The correspondent bdlevea
that^is collapse of all serious oppodtlon on the
part of Austria Is due to an -autograph
letter from the Czar to the Emperor Frauds
Joseph, and partly also to a remark made by
the United States Minister to Russia, while in
Vienna, that the Czar was disused to make
bnportant eoneessions.

LIGATION IN LONDON.
liONDON, April 11. — ^The ultimate, affect
of Prince Gortschakoff's circular is not rs-
assuring. It is pointed ont here that ths Gov-
ernment cannot accept the invitstioii to forms-
late counter-pnnwsals, in consequence of
their view that the -question must be aettled
by the powers jointly. In Vienna, where only
a telegraphic summary has yet been reiseived,
the most serious deduction is that the hope
heretofore held ont from St Petersburg of a re-
newal of the conference negotiationa is not con-
firmed by Prince Gortschakoff's drcnlar, which
nys noUiing about accepting England's condi-
tion for going to a congress. Without soma
such concetdon on the part of Russia no step
can be taken toward a peaceful settlement
The suddenness with which the dreular was
telegraphed to London, during the debate on
the address to the Queen, ezdtes remark. The
spedat edition of the lima containing it was
IsJned. about 8 o'clock Tuesday night Sir
William Vemon-Barconrt and Mr. Leonard
Henry Courtney, Liberals, distributed the pa-
peisfal the Hotue of Commons. The text of
ths drcnlar was published in the original
Frendi. The inference is that the dreular was
specially framed with the view of influencing
pubUe opbaion here, and hnrried into the hands
of memben of Parliament in the hope of affect-
ing the vote on the address.
S/t. Pbtbbsbubo, AprU II.— Prince Gor-
tschakoff's dreular to the Aml>aasador8 aeeom-
paaying his reply to Lord Salisbury's dreular
regretathat the latter, besidee crldddng the
Treaty of San Stefano, did - not. say
what the Britidi Government desire.
He believes that if Lord Saliabttry will make
known their wishes a lietter ftiderstanding of
the dtustion may be reached. As to a con-
gress, the circular says : " BussUrcan only re-'
iterate the declaration that each power, Busda
induded, would have f^ll liberty <a appredatioB
and of seUoD."

established two day^ quarantine on the Aus-

from political than sanitary reasons.
Apprehensions are expressed in Bnehsrest
that the Buaaians intend enforcing strict
martial law. A Bucharest journal states that
Prince Gortschakoff has requested the Gov-
ernment to repress the bitter tone of the
Roumanian press regarding Beasstsbla and the
two years' occupation of Bulgaria.
A Bucharest dispatch says : " Muraerons de-
tachments of Busdans have arrived in the
neighborhood of Bucharest and'in several com-
munes'of the district" .
The dispatch of Turkish reinforoementa to
Thessaly has been countermanded.
News from Cettinje says that the districts in
Albania, on the sea<oast shd the Boyava Biver,
ocenpied by the Montenecrins, have been so
ravaged during the war that the inhabitants are

themTbeing scarcely able to feed their own

Balkiob. AprU 11. — The friends of Lient-
6o V. J arvla are ualng flstraordiaary eff orta in Eaatem
Carolina to break dowa and destroy ex-Judge D. 6.
Fowls baeaose it is asserted that Fowie is in favor of
Sehen A fbr Chlef-Jnstica. Jarvla la a candidate for
the Qovemonhip in 1880, and ia malting hla aaaaolt
thus aariy in order to aeeura the eaatem conntiea,
now known to be atjt,nglr in favor of Fowla. It ia
charged that the " C." letten were written to aecom-
pUah this object and to prejudice and damage Fowle
with the Confedente element of the DemocnCtle
Party.
The determination of Gov. Vance and Senator
Merrimon and their friends to pledge the Dem-
octatis casdidatea for the Lee^atnm to vote lor
their favorite for Senator ia prododng discord
and confnalon. A number of Democratle lead-
en are of the opinion that the party would con-
tinue to exiat without the aupport of either of the
aspirants for the ScDatorsbip Tbeae leaden an
oppoaed to the attempt now being made in county
conventions to eommit le^slative ixominees to any
man. A split in many eountiea la propbeded if the
effort to peek the Ledslatnra is made m all the coun-
ties. Great fear exista in the Demoeratie Party
that them will be a large number of Indeoedent can-
didatea, and that the number ot these elected will be
enfSeieutiy large to enable tbem to hold the bdance
of power. A leading Democrat from the Cape Fear
section is m the dty. and is confident that at least 20
Independent Demoerata will be elected to the Leeis-
lalure-
A gentleman, who has just ntumed from a trip
throudi a large number of counties, whose badness
bronjmt him in contact with the leading men
of the Democratle Farty. reports the feeling against
Schenek aa exeeedingly bitter and lucreaslog every
day. Tha-attack on Shotwdl by Schenek ia de-
nounced as an -effort to injure a man who was not in
politics, and who had nothiog to do with the contest
now going on throughout the State for Judges of the
Supreme Court. Seoenek was elected Judge of the
Superior Court because be belonged to the Kuklux
Kla^, btit It now seems probable that be will be de-
nied further promotion for the same reason. The
conservative men of the Democratic Party are op-
poaed to electing any man to the Supreme Court
Bench who was a ^iklnx- Shotwell'a card expos-
injT Schenek haa not yet appeared.
Then aeems to t»e a reaction in favor of Hon. "W.
N. H. Smith, and it now looks as if he would be nomi-
nated. Other Demoerata think the tide will soon
aet for a third man, and that Hon. Thomas S. Ashe,
of Anson County, la the coming man for Chief-
Justice. "^
TEE CINCINNATI SOUTEERN ROAD.
A BILL PASSED BT TAE OHIO SENATE AUTHOR-
IZINO THE ISSOE OF BONDS FOB THE
COMPLETION OF THE ENTERPIUSE.
bptxwi DUpmiOk to Hu Sttp-Tort 35jaes.
CniciinJATi, April 11.— The Ohio Senate to-
day passed a bin authorizing the City of Cindnuatl
to issue $2,000,000 more bonds for the completion
of the Sonthem Railroad. The House will probably
pass the bill to-morrow. There were several amend-
ments, all of which were intended to restrict the
Trustees. The road catmot be leased In part or as a
whole, permanently or temporarily, without tha ap-
proval of the Sinking Fund Commissioner* — an ill-
dependent board created aa a cheek to the Trustees.
Fifty thousand dollan is dlowed for terminal facili-
ties, and authority is given to lease ground for the
same purpose. It is mandatory upon the Trustees
to use the $2,000,000 authorized tn opening the road
to Chattaruxaca- -The salaries of the Trustees are
virtually aboUalied, and it is provided that the bill
ahdl be aubmltted to the vote of the people oC On-
olnnati within 20 days after its passage- The
wrangle over the queation of the completion of the
road haa bean long and bitter. A large party has
been in favor of throwing away the $16,000,000
already expended, and lettine the road go to the
dogs. Mannfafturen and bu^ntfsa men, how-
ever, with an eye upon the Southern
trade, have urged the appropriation of moner
irith whidi to finish the road, iieapoasible
parties in the East have offered to advance the'
amount necessary to complete It if satisfactory terms
ot lease could be secured, but their propodtlon was.
not entertelned. The pro^>ects are now good for
the earlv completion of the enterprise, and the leas-
ing of it on audi terms as will partly relieve the City
from the enormous burden of taxation caoaed by the
laane ot the bonds.

TfXAA 8nc; As regards the Inquiry made some time
ago by a lady in reference to your affairs, I wish to
say that I do not know anything Improper about yon
or any one connected with this house. Yours truly,
LOUIS BBROe, Manafaeturer of Pianos,
Ko. 30 East Fourteenth^trset.
The witness could not remember whether be had
given the letter to Mr. Newell personally or bad
mailed it to hlra St Boston. Mr. Shafar aaid to the
witness: "Is the letter the troth or a U*(" Bergk
responded, timidly, after a long silence^ *'I don't
know how to answer." He was allowed to leave tbe
stand.
James S. Armstrong, of Ko. 500 Hndasa-tttaat,
testified that from ISTlontQ 1874 ha wu emplayad
by the last witness, and during that period became
acquainted by sight with Mr. Kewell and Misa Olney;
had seen them together in the street aa early aa 8
o'eloek in the morning and aa late aa 11 at alght ;
had seei\ them enter Misa Olaey's apartmeata lata
at night, and had noticed Mr. Newell leare there aa
early aa 7:30 In tbe morning; nerer noted anything
else suspicions ia their conduct ; Mr. Newell noTer
appeared desirons to avoid obaervatioa daring bla
visits.
Richard M. James, of Ko. 230 West Tweaty-tblrd-
street, testifled that ba had lived at Ko. 30 East
Fourteenth-street, and did business as a print pub-
lisher for four yeaxa from 1873; In that period he
became acquainted with Mr. Kewell and Misa Olney ;
he often saw tbe former enter the letter's apart-
ments in tbe evehing and leave them early in the
morning; witness retired, knowing that Newell waa
In Miss Olney's apartments, and, not having beard
bim leave, presumed he remained there all night.
Mr. Shafer— Oh, now, hold on ! thla is not ricbt.
I ask that the witness* presumption be stricken out.
Judge Lawrence grmnted the motion, and instructed
the witness to confine himself to facts. Jamea did
not sroSt by the instruction, for, later on, he said
^ that he had presumed from their actions that tbe de-
fendant and Misa Olney were man and wife, for
which he was rebuked by the Jndge and by counsel.
He said that upon one occasion Mr. Kewell visited
the apartments ixwwliicb be was employed and lived,
and said to bis brother, in witness' bearing, that he
did not deny going with Miss Olney, as he did not
profess to be a saint.
Duriog Mr. Shafer's cross-examination of the wit-
ness, hr said to him : " You are convivial ; yon at-
tend tbe clubs, sociables, and parties ; you are gay j
yon like to have a good time, do yon not f"
Witness — I like to enjoy- myself; bat I do not
presume tbat every one baa " a good time, " In yonr
sense, when he enjoys himself.
Mr. Shafer — What do you think 1 mean by having
" a good time f"
Witness— Gettlag drunk.
Mr. Shafer (in a rage)— Wbat t Do yon know m*.
Sir! What leads you to suppose I meant thiti
iTo tbe court) — 1 submit, your Honor, that the wit-
ness had no right to address me in such a way.
Mr. t^uilerton- Tbe remark waa a very natural aa-
quence to your question.
Mr. Shafer— It might have bean. If yon were ezaai-
Ining tbe witness.
After this entertainins eplaoda tbe testimony of
the witness was of little Interest. When he lett tbe
stand tbe court took a reeees for baU an hour. When
tbe court was reopened, Jamea F. Pickering, a Bos-
ton lawyer, was called to tbe stand. HIa testimony
took up tbe entire aftercoon aesston. Ha teetUad
that he knew the nUintiS and defendant i be lint

belonged to an Inside door; her husband, the witness
added, did not deny the truth of the ebarge. The
witness xecited some very filthy details oif^the evi-
dence bronsht by Mrs. Newell in this interview
against her husband, and then said :
She stated that a later date abe visited New-York,
and in a trunk in an apartment above her hnsband's
store fonnd evidences, which she rabsegaently verl-'
tied, that Miss Olney was abroad with Mr. Newell In
1873; that she went ont under tbe proteetton of
Mr. Ralph Warren, a Boston man milliner. In Jan-
nary, 1873. Mr. Newell having started Itt tbe last

Mrs. Newell bad finished speaking, her husband
denied with earnestness that he bad ever ekaiged her
with cansing him physical trouble* ; be did not deny
what his wife said about hit relations with Miss
Olney, but admitted iU truth by saying that It was
his trtfe's fault, as she ought to liave come to New-
York and protected bim from Misa Olney ; he also
said that be did not pretend to anr virtna, Dttt as bis
sins and those of his wife had been mutual,
they bad better not separate ; b* again
threatened to ally himself with her opponents in
the Boardtnan will ease should she begin a salt for

" Yet Sir, I know that ; snd they aald that I
appointed Mr. Booaevdt as Collector of New- York
looking to thst end."
" It Is certainly aa appointment that yoa need not

" I do not believe any one eUe could'bave Induced
Mr. Rooeevelt to consent to allow his name to be
used for tts place. I had never vidted Mr. Roose-
velt nor bad be ever visited me, until I called npon
htm aa a nablie man. I told him what was wanted.
He thon^t the matter over, but was very nnwUling
to allow bis name to go before the innate ; but I
urged upon him the necessity of just such men as he
coming forward. A man of wealth : a man of fash-
ion, wno drove his four-in-hand ; a man who was a
patron of srtfand sciences ; a philanthropist, in the
oroadeat aense of the word, who had had a wide ex-
perience in business as a merchant, though retired
from active business for some three years, I told
htm that in order to break up this machine manipu-
lation of politics, it was necessary for such men as
be to come forward, so that no excuse could be
bnaght Hs could better afford to be Collector of
the Fort of New- York than I could to go into
tte Cabinet. Bnt I accepted the place I hold as a
matter of duty, in order to do sway. If possible, with
tbe manipulation of conTentions by officeholders — ^iu
fact doing away with the machine. Had I been de-
stroas of laying pipes for the Presidency, 1 should
have recommended Mr. Arthur for the place.
He is a nearer friend ot mine — a gentleman -with
whom I am well acquainted — and, had I a desire to
be President in the f nture. he was Iwttar for me, if
I intended to be aided by appointments, dnce he
could better control the machine. Mr. Bo<»evelt ia
dead now, bnt it was nt>t until after bis deatt that
the people saw all over the ooimtry what an exceLent
man he was."
'-Then tten sre none among yon who aspire to tte

'■ No, Sir. We can't all be Preddent."
" How does President Hayes view Mr. Howe's at-
tack!"
" He takes it good-naturedly. Some people thought
we ahonld have answered him, but after a day or
two. the frienda of tte -Administration ttought dif-
ferently."
"Tbe public wen not with Senator Howe r'
"No, I think not The President is wfar^aeeing

thing pleasantly as it comes. Tbe dissatisfaction
comes all from the disappointed machine politicians
who cannot control the Administration. If they
want to go back to the times of fonr years ago. let
them do yt. There is no use denying that tbeblacks
In tte Bontt are doing better for themselves, and
TtiaWIng more money, than they were then. I have
always thought that making tte colored man so im-
portant a factor in Republican politics wou^d prove
dlsaatrOQS to the party."
"You do not mean to say that tbe Republican
Party is dead )"
" On the contrary; no. Sir. I ttink it is stronger
than ever to-day. But the black vote in the South
must become divided before it will work as an im-
portant factor in bonthem politics. As it becomes
divided, it -will become a balance of power between
tbe parties."

and withirat means, I could not do otherwise than

lentless and bitter persecution. Wedtb, social and

deteetivea employed to procure teetlmeny against

Dr. Charles H. Bomer, tb* aaa wUhflv*

Ingstatesent showing wfay the scaaip sscsyeAwstfr
Ishment :
"A few weeks since tbe aua Bcaes*^ •As* eralr.

this court to a charge of polvnaaj. Tba eempbdat
before which this action waa taken was Biads bv my-
self, and alleged that in ttemoatt of Manh, 1877,

tbe (Dity of Chicsgo, IIL. unlawfully maiTV ooe Bs»

as his wife in this dty snd county. This eo^

and In tbe belief that Rcemer, at tbe ttma «
his add marrisgs with Mrs. Artx, had a lawfal wifa
living at Berlin Station, Ontario. Snbsequaatly r»
ceiving an intimation, however, ttat if tbe eaaeesta*
to trial an attempt would be made on tbe aeit ot th*
defendant to show the marriage with tbe Berlin laly
to be void by reason of R<emer's having a form**
wife living at the time it -was so aoTemnlxed, Z
thought it prudent to investiizate the matrimonial
career of tte defendant from the moat xemota e^
,certainable date to tbe preaent. I did eo,aBd4I*>
covered a state of facts whieh in my ladgiaeat ra^
dered it impossible, under the rules of lawgosmalng
cases of this sort, to convict R<emer, or even lagsTlj-
or fairly to procure an indictment against blm.
" Stating by way of preface, the ft^mUlar priaripl*
ttat In oraer to convict a man of bigamy, ec, as ear
statute terms it polygamy, it must sppear that at
the time of the nairiage alleged to beliigsmaaa
there was a former lawful wife living. I will now
give thn court the history, so far as I have been able
np to this time to learn it, of R^mner's matrilBaalal
ventures and experiences, mentioning dates aai
places, and suppressing only the names of most of
the ladles concerned, wltt s view to svoid a publleity
whieh might be to tbem very nnplessaot ana ambav

" Within a stMUM of less ttian five yeara. andlB^
April 3. 1877, the man Rcemer married. Mm. -Arta

death, and invalidity, it so happened, aa tbe eonr*
will see, that at the time be espoused Mia. Arts
there was, as far as my information goet no prior
lawful marriage in exisienee.
" On tbe 14th .of October, 1872. be married, under
the name of Dr. Arnold, a lady residing in Cedarbui^
Ozaukee County, Wis., the ceremony being performed
at Grafton, in the same county. On the Zlat day of
April. 1874, in the Cinmit Court of aatd eoimtr. tbia
lady obtained a decree of divorce from him oa the
gronnd of desertion.
'-Between the two laat-mentioned datat eadwhOl^
therefore, the Wisconsin marriage remained la ex-
istence, he unlawfully, under tte name of Dr.Charies
Besm, married the Berlin Isdr nferred to above. tb»
ceremony being performed on the 16th day of O^o-'
ber. 18-73, bv a Jnitice of the Peace in Buffalo, K.T..)
and the marriage thus entered into being actkaoa^-
ed^ed and confirmed before a Roman CatboDc prices
in the City of Rochester, N. Y., on the 21st day of)
the same month. This lady is st H living, bnt tbe
marriage witt her wat for the reason stated, aall
and void.
" On the 16tt day of April 1874— Jast five days
before the decree of divorce was granted In Osaakes
County, Wis — nsving deserted tbe Berlin lady after
a few weeks of cohabitation, he tmlawfuBy-marrieo,
under the name which he now bears, a widow poa.
scssed of considerable property, residing in the City
of CTolumbus. Ind. This woman died quite suddenly
on t'ne 24th of July in tte same v«ar.
"On the 17th day of July. 18T5. still bearing tte
name-R<Bmer, he took to wife a young and beautifnl
girl in the (^ty ot St. Louis. Mo. The ^nsooadn
divorce having been previously granted, tbIa mar-
riage, for aught that yet appeara to tte eontrary,
was valid. But tbe young St. Louis wife sacd for a
divorce in tbe Circuit Court at that dty. and, aa tba
records show, obtained a decree on tbe 29tt day ot
January, 1877. a Uttle over two mouths before tbe
marriage -with Mrs. Artz. whicli, as appears from tbe
certificate, was solemnised by a Justice in tbe dlj ot
CJhlcago. ni.. on the 3d day of April, 18-77.
" The above mentioned are all the marriagea en-
tered into by Rcemer respecting which I have any
certain or reliable tuformstion. though ttere are
rumors of others. Of nnfnlfilled engagementa te
msiTT and difficnlties with women not married. It is
unnecessary to speak. What has been said will. I
trust, sufficiently acquaint the eourt aad tbe people

HasvonMs that the sixth ana ftnal liutallmant Is
" to progno," Mr. Lowall may aaleot lome good
tall eherry-tree to tbs soborba ot Uadzld and
ellmb boldly to the top ot It.
The btofnpher'i ait haa certainly wandered
ta (nnn tta early modala to the eharmtog Livei
of Plntareh when it haa grown to be leu a his-
tory at the man than of hia enTironment In
BotwaU'i gmt work the tabjeet ia always at
the centre. Oeorsian politics, Bousscaa pbll-
osophlee, all eontomporary llteratore, and life
an shown only through a Johnsonian medinm.
And this is as it should be. In the absence of
■oeh personal aeqoatotenee as Boswell had with
Jphnson, or aa Phillips had with Hilton, a blog-
lypfaer had better leare out history altogether
exempt when It has direct pototsof contact with
his subject Milton's Ufe-element was the at-
Btosphere of all other SngUsbmen of his time aa
well. Only what was peculiarly his belongs of
light to his UographT. For the general history
of his period other soaroas are open to the
reader, who may go to Clarendon, or Burnet, or
Weale quite as conTeniently as to Maason.
Prof. Maaaon's work is separable toto two
parts— the historical and the biographloaL The
two run to parallel couiaea, and are only occa-
sionally connected by very slender sluices of
(act or conjecture. It is true that Hilton's life
was Titally related to the political and religious
eonttoTersles of his d«y, but the extent and n»-
tor* of his relation might easily have been
indicated to a few ehapteta and by the help of a
few quotations from his polemical' tracta B«-
eanse Coleridge came strongly under the to-
floenceof Sohelling, is it needfhl that a life
of Coleridge should contato a complete review
of Qermas Philosophy from Kant to Hegel i Or
because Shelley sympathized with the French
BeTolntion is his bioyrmpher called upon to
write the history of that convulsipn t S<»i>8
gratitude is nevertheless due to Prof. Masson
that he has eouBned hU labors matoly to Eng-
lish history. He might have given us the an-
nals of the Thirty Years War,
" And what the Swede Intends and what the French. "
But our quarrel with the plan of this work does
not end here. Not only is a biographer not
bonndtowiitea history of hia hero's times;
he is also under no compulsion to give us
every fact in his life, but only, as we con-
seive, what is charaetoristlo and signifi-
cant. Especially in writtog tlie life of i|
povt ought a judicious narrator to distto-
gnish between what should be presented and
what withheld. A poet leads a double life, and
the mere business details of his prose existence
have less to do than is usually supposed with
his mtellectual and artistic development. It is
this latter aide of him which most of all inter-
ests posterity. Prof. Masson would have done
a service to readers of Milton if he had prtoted
and annotated less of his diplomatic correspond-
ence as Secretary for Foreiica Tongues to the
Council of State, and had made to placo of this
Mme attempt at a aketeh ot the literary influ-
ences which acted upon his geniu;. His work
aa an editor ot Milton's poetry should have pre-
pared him to trace many of the elements of the
poef s style to their antecedents ; to tell us what
it owed to Wither and Sylvester, to Spenser,
Flateher, and Euripides. In this kind there is
nothing to these later volumes so valuable as
the sketch of contemporary English poetry to
the first volume, though the passage to ques-
tton was not sufficiently related to Milton's own
writtogs, but read rather like a detached essay.
Tbo two volumes now under consideration are
not todeed exactly the plaoe for the insartton ot
such matter, as the period covered by them waa
poetically the least productive to Milton's lite.
But to the sixth volume, wbiah will toelude the
oomposition ot "P)tradise Lost." " ^fuadise Be-
gatoed." and " Samson Agonistes," we shall be
dis^pointed it nothtog of the sort is attempted.
As an instanca of the kind of fact which is
really Irrelev^t to Milton's biography, we may
mention the tedtons suit to the Commissioners
tor Compositions by the poet's mother-to-law,
Mrs. Powell, who is described aa a " brave and
tenaeiouf " ladv. Equally tenacious is Prof.
Uasson to his hl^ry ot this nnimportai^t litl-
pttion. He devotes many pages to it, apd le-
SOTS to it agato and agato, digging it np, with
the iaduatry of a sonveyanoer hnnttos a title,
from the mass of MUton Papers to th^ pnUlaa-
tioos of the i^amdan Society, where it lay peaoo-
fnUy bnried. The sola item to this buatoesa to
any way fruitful or signifleant toward, a knowl-
«|dge of Milton's character is a note to the petl-
Honer's behalf to the effect that "Mr. MUton is
a hanb and choleric man, and married Mrs.
Powell's daughter, who would bo Dsdono it apy
tneh course were taken against him by Mrs.
Powell, he having toisad away U^ wit* hareto-
tantac a long qpaea opon aome other occa-
sion."

Frot Hassan's analysis of Milton's poUtiBsl
writtogs makes it evident that his optoioiis
coincided most rlosaly with those ot the s^nall
group . of BepabUsan Irreeonisilablas whose
best.known representotlves are perhap* Brad-
shaw, Harrison, apd Van*. The l»ngnage of
hlsl^tar pamphlet U th>t of ona who, while t«-
maining faithful to the Protaotorato, regretted
ite necessity, smd Tagretted above all that tho
Protector had given his adhesion to tha
principle ot a State Church as opposed to volun-
taryism. Liberty never ceased to be Milton's
ideal, and he wor8hipe4 it with the passion
of a theorist and a poet: He had what Bason
calls "the htimor of a scholar." with but Uttle
histerieal sense and little of that praetisal Stag- .
lish recognition of what is pos^blo hofoand
now, and what is not, which made Cromvoll the
first statesman of his time. Milton would haw
imposed a Greek) demoorscv upon a people
tratoed in the traditions of the monarehy. He
recommended the Mosaic laws ot divorce to a
community which had hardly shakaitaC the
Catholic doctrine of marriag*- ^^ * country of
endowed grammar-schools and nnivanittas but
just emerged from a mediieval disoipUne and
cqrrioulum, he wanted to set np gymnasia and
schools ot philosophy fashioned attar the Poroh
and the Academy.
Prof. Masson has done enduring service,
though not so much to readers ot Milton as to
studente ot political history, in supplying all
the information needed for a full understandtog
of these controversial ^writings. The general
reader, too, will thank him tor his exoellont
rendertogs from Hilton's Xa^n, and especially
tor the translation qf the letter to the Athenian
Philaras on page 640, volume IV., in which the
poet gives an account of the gradual oncomtog
of his bltodness. In one of the extracte on the
same subject, translated from the Stamd 2>e-
feru*. we have noted a sentence or two which
not only anticipate a famous passage to i^ro-
diteLott, but are, perhaps, even inore poetically
expressed ; ** Not so -much by the dulltog of
the eyesight as by the shade of heavenly wings
does Qod seem to have made this darkness for
us ; and having made it He is not seldom wont
to illumtoste it again by an inner and tar more
excelitog light." Useful also to the general
reader is the tultoess of comment ^ven to the
two sonnets, "To the Lord (General Cromwell,"
and " To Sir Henry Vane the Younger." To
lend a sharper historic deflnitoness to Hilton's
verse is work ot the most serviceable fctod
which a biographer can do.
In another letter to Philaras, given on page
444, volume IV., there is an earnest aspiration
for the freedom of Qreeca from her Ottoman
oppressor, which is almost startltog to view ot
what has since oeenrred: "Were there to me
such a power of pleadtog that I could rouse our
armies and fleeta for the deliverance of Greece,
• • • truly there is nothtog which It wonld
be more or sooner in my deaica to do." In
which words Milton seems to be reaehtoga band
across the centuries to touch thetingltog ears of
that other great British poet wno died to this
cause.
Though Prof. Masson has added little to our
knowledge of Milton's personality beyond what
was already attetoable from the autobiographi-
cal passages to the poet's own writings, and
from the older authorities on bis life, such as
Phillips' Memoir, and the notes of Aubrey and
Wood ; he has made a distinct contribution to
the history of Milton's generation. We have
seen nowhere so clear a statement ot the con-
tusing political changes- which took place be-
tween the beheadtog ot Charles and the Besto-
nition, as is given in these two volumes. Th*
author has not tha highest gifts of an historian,
but he has a mtonte fidelity and a slcill to fol-
lowing up one by one the threads of tangled in-
teresU apd opinions which make the history ot
that decade such a eomnlicated thing. Our at-
tention was espaeially held by his excellent de-
scription of Harrington, (ot tha OMaito.) and
the debates ot the Bote Club; and this, it we
mistake not, will come with most freshness to
the general reader.
There are fewer instances than usual to these
two volumes of that bad taste wiiioh offended
Mr. Lowell, and toto which Prof. Masson always
tails when he attempts the hnmoroqs or the pio-
turesqne. Never&eless, his air ot jocoseness
to the Salmaslns matter is unfortunate. 8*1-
masius waa, in his time, a very serious and im-
portant figure ; i|or ought there to h* anything
very Indisrous to th* ay? of the historian inbif
preaenttog himself at the Svdish Conrf )n
searlst breeches with a Mnek hat and whits
feather. Howeyar ridieqloos such • eosti^ia*
might ba to-day, it is a sto Kgstost historisal
truth to transfer our modem notions ot iriist i^
becomtog to dress to the fasUoos of the seven-
teenth century. It might have been just a*
well, too, bad th* author omitted S>* astraor-
diaary bit of imagination on page 175, volume
IV. : "Vram January, 1649-50, onward, I seam
to see Milton's arm stretehtog itsalt, at every
leisure moment, through the air toward LeydeUf
the hand movtog quietly as if engaged to finger-
tog, with more and mare ot totsnst, the cranium
of th* frsat Salmasius." Wbiytever' Prof. Masr
son may "seeip to sw>." his readers will zsfas*
to a** wy sash thi?>g as this of Milton's fing^
ing th* eraatom of Salmasius, and to vulgaris*
their conception of ik» most angtist fligur* to
yy^g-lLh literary annals by picturing him to th*
lattitude ot a phranologist or hair-dresser.
We have spoken of the 11 yoars eovsrad by
thea*]vatomes as the least productive, poetiaally,
to Milton's life since ha arrived at matnrity.
It should not be ipferred from thistlu^t w* thlofc
tbeni 'jvastod. They were todirectly fraitfnl
even in poetry. It may be doubted whether the
soil ot his mind would- have borne )«ter snpb
prjitfovshsrvosts had it apt been first ^ deeply
sttexadasdplawad. Thebattles,dnidf*ry,lois»s,
and patriotic saoriflcas at hia middlfr4its came
freighted with spiritual gains. Thsy recall hly
own saytog , "Be who wonld not b* frnstrstf

A COUPLAOBVT VI£W BT A UORUOX FAP£K
OF THEIR PB0P08ED TJVIOK.
Frofk thM 8aU Lake iVidk) Herald, April 3.
A correspondent of Thb Xkw-Toek Tnocs
reviTM tho old propositiou ot atfehlng 17t«li to
the State of Kenda. He tbinb this wotiU dis-
pose of the llormon qaestioo, and at the
same Ume add dl^nitj to the Sagebrcsh
State. We are not certain the people of "Dtah
iroold not seriously object 'to an alliance with
Nevada. Of eonrte, we have other ambitions and
aims for the fntnre of the Territory. When Con-
gress sees fit to admit Utah into the Union we
want the map somewhat changed, and a gem of
an interior State mode of this region. Onr
east and west boandaries shoold be Colorado and
Nevada, and onr North and Soath the 44th and
36th parallels. Nature seems to have destined that
it shoold De so. This mapping wonld eoofirm to
Utah the two monntain ranges and two lines of val-
leys extending through the entire Territory from
north to soath. The coantry included wltliin the
designated lines is settled and owned essentlaUy by
Utu people. They already control It in polities,
and w(U eontione to hold the balmnce of power.
Sneh a State woold be as pretty in shape, as con-
venient in sise, aad as correctly defined oy nature's
lines, as it would be politically powerful in the great
West end the nation at Ijirge. The neonle have a
c^mnnnity ot interest, and an incentive to wo^ to-
g^er. indnstrially speaUag. This, we say, is abont
Uie direction in which the ambition of Utah people
points. We hope some day to see it aeeomplished.
But In the meantime. If Congress is particularly
auxions to bestow Nevada upon ns— -for this would
Iw tha resnlt of uniting the two — we can enter only
a modest protest. Nevada properly belonps to Utah.
Tae State wu originally onn, and bad it so re-
mained it wonld at laoit have been in as good fix as
it is to-dsy. The population of the Bagebmsh State
is IsM thsn 60.000. and whereas the peroentace of
voters is larger, perhaps, than in any other State or
Territory, Utah can outvote it almoet two to one.
The latter has a population of perhaps be-
tween 133.000 and 145.000. and the per-
centage of voters is by no means saiall.
As TfiK T1VI8* correspondent admits, Nevada
would fall into our hands. The first election would
resnlt in anothersoUd Democratic State, and no power
that could be brought to bear by California gold
oontd reverse it. ^e people ot Utah are Demo-
cratic ia prindpls, first, last, and all the time, as
will be demonstrated whenever an opportunity pre-
sents itself.
We do not ask for Nevada ; but If she li fftrced
upon OS we will do what we can In the matter of re-
claiminc her. It may take some time to pnrify her
jioUtics, bat it can be accomplished, and by no
power sooner than by Utah.
BLAIR'S BAkGAiy,
The BichmOQd correspondent of the Peters-
burg (Va.) Indei-AppeaX sends the following enrions
story as received from ICaryland by private dian-
ttcls: "Montgomery Blair's resolutions passed the
Maryland legislature it is s^d bv one of those los-
rollbog dodges not unnsoal in sucn assemblies. He
was anxious for his scheme to receive the indorse-
ment of the General Assembly. In renaitinir the
State-faoose at Annapolis the Board of Pnblic Works
had exceeded the appropriation made for that pur-
pose at the last session but one, $80,000. Of course,
the eontraetors to whom the money was due were
urgedto receive the pay, and their friends wbre na-
merous and influential. Hut Mr. Blair was a leader
In the House of Deflates of the party there which
waa opposed to the payment of the nnanthorized ex-
pfuimnre. At one time this i>arty seemed te control
a majority of tbe House. Hence, it is said, that the
suggestion was made to tbe statesman from Silver
Spring that if he wa^ so pugnacious against payins
that bill— his little bill would never see the light. Of
oourse he waa nnwilling to pat himself in auctions
opposition, and so both bills passed, but the bill fox-
repairs and fosnitore pulled through tbe bill for an
elsctonl recount."
^^
Ay VKSXrPFOSABLE CASE.
The San Francisco BuUetin of March 30 says :
**A case containing points both new and interesting
was deoided by Jadge Wheeler, of the Nineteenth
District Court, this morning. A suit had been
brought for damages by £llsabeth Roche s^tnst
Emeline M. North for havins eednced plaintlfrs hus-
band, and a demurrer was filed on the ground that
the complaint did not state facts suffitdent, andplead-
ing also the statute of Umttation. 3wifs» Wheeler
did not pssa on the latter point. He tdted the forty-
ninth sfctton of t^e Civil Code, which provided that
suit for damages may be brought for the abdnetloa
of a husband or ehlld, or for tike sednetlo* of a wife
or dauf^ter, or the enticement ^m a wife's bed or
beard of thebusband. There waa ao provision made,
however, for suit for damages for the aednetion of a
husband from his wife, and the chivalry of law was
ao ersltsd that it conld not suppose such a ease.
The demurrer to the complaint was accordingly sns-
taineda"

for to-day, tn the Middle Atlantic States,

idly clearing weather, westerly tcinds, sta-

The asrreement concluded yesterday be-
tween Secretary Sherman and the Sjmdi-
cate for the sale of fifty mlllioas of four and
a half per cent bonds between this date
and the close of the year, is accepted as
rendering resumption a certainty. There
can bo no question that with two hundred
millions of gold coin in hand on the 1st of
January next, the Treasury will be abun-
dantly able to meet all the claims likely
to be made upon it. On the possibility of
maintaining specie payments, the questions
of how large an amount of silver dollars
van be absorbed into the circulation, of
what disposition the Secretary will insist
on maUng of the ijreenbaoks redeemed,
and oC what fresh piece of financial
lunacy may be perpetrated by this Con-
gress, have a decidedly important bearing.
Meanwhile it is something gained to have
placed the Treasury beyond the reach of
any possible combination to deplete its stock
of gold, and to have provided a certain
method of reducing the discount on legal-
t*;nder notes to a very trifling fraction con-
■siderably earlier than the date fixed for
their redemption. It is to be hoped that
when the causes mature which will within a
year manifestly threaten the stability of the
currency, Congress and the country will be
In a saner mood to deal with them.
Including the Naval Deficiency bill, the
ftonse Committee on .Appropriations now
havffbills before them providing for defi-
^iencies to the amount of $8,500,000.
This sum represents part of the amount
claimed by the last Congress to have been
saved in the expenditures of the Govern-
ment. That Congress had determined to
"save" a certain amo>int of money, and the
sum total was deliberately taken out of the
appropriations necessary for the main-
tenance of the public service. The curious
reader will find, on turning to the official
records of the proceedings of the Forty-
fonrth Congress, that these deficiencies were
pointed ont at the time. It was clearly shown
that the Navy Department, for example,
eonld not get on without the money esti-
mated for by theofficete of that department,
[n the face of incontrovertible facts and
iflgures, the Democratic managers refused
~ to put back the appropriation which they
had cut down. The Navy Department is to-
4ay $3,500,000 short, and an appropria-
tion bill is to be passed to cover that de-
'Ccienoy. The Democratic Party has had
the credit of saving many millions. To the
present Democratic House of Bepresenta-
tives is assigned the melancholy duty of
proving that the party did nothing of the
sort. '
Among other claims to public considera-
tion, the Legislature of 1878 has earned the
distinction of being greatly addicted to jun-
keting. Select delegations of its members
hav% already enjoyed trips to Trenton,
Phxladelphia, wad Boston, and now the
Senate, on the invitation of Senator Wag-
MTR, is enjoying an excursion to Montreal.
The hospitable Chairman of the
Kailroad Committee may be trusted
not to imitate th« example of the stingy
Senators of New-Jersey in making a fuss
over the bill for refreshments. Everybody
will have An undeniably good time, and will
return ■ thoroughly impressed, not only with
the £sinterested generosity of Senator
Waoseb, but also with the essential mean-
ness o! the. impraetioable theorists who
propose to allow a board of commissioners
to poke their noses into the affairs of the
gnsat raiilroad corporations of the State.
The favorable. effect of PrineoGoRTSOHA-
KOFP's reply has vanished as suddenly as it
came. The British Ministers, agreeably
Borprisedat first by its conciliatory tone,
have begun to .perceive that, beneath the
smooth surface, it is merely an ornamental
edition of Russia's " no surrender" iitt»r-
•nce of last month ; and the aspect of af-
foiis is stormier than ever. Austria is in-
dignant at Russia's alleged attempt to bribe
Servia with the offered cession of Bosnia.
Russia is indignant at the construction of
Creah Turkish defenses around Constantino-
nle. Turkey is indignant at the symptoms
of a soooud aebar]Bitio& of English troops
on Tenedos Island. Bonmanis is indignant
at the eoncentration of Russian troops
around Pi?at«shti and Oinrgavo, and not less
80 at the trxmSni dmaai of Fnnce Ookt-
totUXOTT that Ot aati-BaMiaii uttmuiees
while EngUnd is 'indignant -at ewwtUaJt
and everybody, h«r own Mhusten included.
Meanwhile, the Russians are '"«V'''g rail-
ways along the left bank of the ^Lower'
Danube, between Beni and IsmaQ, as a pre-
caution, it is said, against the possible en-
trance ot the Eni^i^- squadron into the
Black Sea; but their available strength is
considerably lessened by the ravages of the
typhus, which has put 14,000 taen A«r« dw
cofkbat in the Army of ^bnmeUa alone.
Mr. Latabd, who appears to lie a kind
of political scapegoat at present, is now
charged with having instigated Osmak
Pasha to construct, without the knowledge
of the Ifiuister ot War, those defensive
works against which the Grand Duke Nicho-
las has protested so strongly. On the
other hand, "the moderating influence of
Germany" is said to be at work with the
view of resuscitating the scheme for a con-
gress, and unless England raises fresh
obstacles, " a pacific understanding" is con-
fidently expected.
The Illinois Democrats have adopted a
platform characterized by the usual jug-
gling with words- and dictated by the
customary contempt of principle. The
Greenback and Granger stragglers from
the party ranks have been " whipped
into line," and the fact that the
plea for an honest money plank in the
platform found its sole advocate in ex-Gov.
Palmer is a tolerably conclusive proof
that no concession will be denied which
is likely to keep them there.' The san-
guine temped of the Illinois Democracy is
somewhat dashed by the reflection that they
have not been able to conciliate the Na-
tionals, and that the new party is certain to
draw most of its recruits from Democratic
ranks. Of course, it is merely a question
of time with the Democratic leaders of Illi-
nois or of any other State when they will
surrender such slight remnants of political
principle as may be left them at the bid-
ing of the organization whose rapid pro-
gress is so evidently fraught with disaster
to their party and its candidates.

BLI2W LEADEBS OF IBE BLVW.
Very little is needed to make small poli-
ticians happy. They are delighted because
the Republican caucus which assembled at
Washington on Wednesday night did not
end in a tremendous row. There had been
so much threatening that expectation ran
high, and a grand fight about the Adminis-
tration and its relations toward the party
would have been considered in order. In-
deed, the tameness with which the affair
went off seems to be rather disappointing.
No village patriot proposed to read the
President out of the party. Open war was
not declared against Mr. Schitez, nor was a
demand made for the reorganization of the
Cabinet to meet the requirements of certain
Senators. The bloody shirt was not hoisted
as the standard of the party. And,
generally, the gathering was notable
simply because it did not render itself
ridiculous. Its virtues were all of the nega-
tive sort. For this impotent result the
great men who were present are rewarded
with unstinted praise. Their forbearance,
their moderation, their conservatism are
dwelt upon as evidences of the illustrious
statesmanship that guides the counsels ot
the party. Happy we are told that it
should esteem itself in the possession of
leaders who refuse to knock their heads
against a stone wall or to go into hysterics
about the President's bad faith. Party
unity is thus preserved and an easy vic-
tory will be the result.
We are unable to echo these congratula-
tions or to share the confidence that accom-
panies them. The published reports of the
proceedings in the caucus concur in all es-
sentials, and may therefore be accepted as
substantially accbrate. And what impres-
sion do they convey f In one respect it is
satisfactory. The injudicious talkers at the
preliminary meeting were not allowed to
reappear. The folly of trying to strengthen
the party by dividing it, of rebuking the
President by assailing measures which can-
not now be reversed, has been abandoned.
The party is not under any obligation to
"indorse" the President, and its proper
course is to leave the Southern question to
be determined by results. For so much, as
things go, perhaps we should be thankful.
But here the feeling of satisfaction ends.
Passing from this silence to the speeches
that are recorded — ^from things unsaid to
the things that occupied the thoughts
of the wise men assembled — what
was the all-absorbing .topic f The
great office question filled all minds and
stirred all tongues. Nothing else was men-
tioned. Moreover, the manner of its intro^
duction attests the importance that is at-
tached to it. "Whereas," runs Mr. Sar-
gent's preamble, "the restoration of the
Democratic Party to power would be a great
nationalealamity, to avert which all patriotic
citizens should put forth their best efforts."
A solemn beginning, truly. And to avert
the dreadful calamity thus foreshadowed,
the California Senator proposes—what 1
That the Republican Party shall entreat
the President to rescind that memoraUe
civil service order which he has not even
attempted to enforce ! According to our
correspondent, " the speaker declared that
the President could not have dealt his party
a more destructive blow than he did in pro-
mulgating the order in question." That is
to say, in the judgment of Mr. Saroest,
the Republican Party is doomed to destruc-
tion unless the Government officials, great
and small, are allowed to devote to its man-
agement the time for which the country
pays them. The party derives its life and
votes from the " machine," and if the office-
holders are not to manage the machine the
party must die. So says Mr. Sabgbnt, who
expresses the idea of their own importance
which prevails among machine politicians.
As, however, he was frank enongh after-
ward to confess that the order had not in a
single instance been enforced, and as he
explained the inaction by remarking that
the President had been frightened into al-
lowing the order quietly to drop,'it is diffi-
cult to see tiie occasion for that ominous
"whereas."' Suice the salvation of this
country depends upon an army of office-
holders fighting under the Republican flag,
and since, as iSr. Sasoekt acknowledges,
these partisan mercenaries are as available
as ever, why should the oanens spend its
precious time in discussing how to induce
the President to recall his inoperative eir-
enlar t

better to fight for thnr pKtcoaags^ and de-
pends for. its eidstBAee upon th* miwiage-
ment of oSce-hotcteis, it is aeareilr wotth
saving.' Its new deelai'ationsiqton this sub-
ject show that neither its temper nor its
purpose is understood by many membws of
the eauens. - Again and again it has put
upon record its conviction that civil serriee
reform isimperativelyreqtiiied. Ithaa called
for the ; elimination of the office-holding
element from party maiiBgement, and for
the introduction into the service of condi-
tions utterly incompatible with the work of
the " msehine." Ifr. Haves' order was wel-
comed as in part the fulfillment of a pledge
made by the party, and had •he carried it
ontwithtiie dogged pertinacity whieh he
has applied to his ill-i^rred Sontiiem pol-
icy, his own position would have been
stronger than it is and the condition of the
party infinitely better. Now, the only con-
spicuous feature of his position .is its weak-
ness; while the party, ^sheartened by his
oowardice,.p8>3sively witnesses the straggle
of its worst and meanest elements to regain
the ascendency they lost at Cincinnati.
One of the reasons assignedfor the silence
maintained with reference to the Southern
policy and the Administration generally is
that Senators and Representatives have
found that their an^pathies and their paltry
tactics ate not approved by the people. The
fact is indisputable, whethec its influence
be correetiy stated or not. The people dis-
tinguish between dead issues and live ones,
and will not abet any effort to drag the old
Southern controversy from its tomb. They
are also disgusted with the everlasting
squabble about patronage. They have no
patience with Representatives who waste
days in intriguing about a Door-keeper, or
with Senators who imagine that offices were
created, for their glory. The .members of
the caucus who could talk only of the neces-
sity of inducing the PresideQt to ally him-
self with the Republican " machine" derive
their inspiration from its managers and
tools, or they would know that the voting
force of the party, its brains, its character,
its moral strength, are all against them.
Their shortsightedness is still further ex-
emplified. "They meet to organize and sug-
gest plans for the next campaign. Not one
of them, however, alluded to the topics
that are uppermost in the public mind.
The possibility of the civil service being
made pure, and administered on common-
sense business principles, fills them with
alarm. They are afraid lest the reform of.
a system which disgtitces the Government
and demoralizes its servants should destroy
the Republican Party. But they are blind
to the necessity of so reorganizing the party
that it shall rally the friends of the national
credit and honest money in opposition to
dangerous financial heresies, whose power
in the West is known already, and whose
growth is unfortunately not confined to
that section. In the next campaign, the so-
called National Party will be a more
formidable foe than the Democracy, and
the only hope of defeating it rests upon the
fidelity, of the Republican Party to its
record and its principles. What respect
can be felt for a Republicad caucus that
ignores the most perilous issue of the time,
or for a leadership that is too blind to see
the path of duty T
BIENNIAL SESSIONS OF CONGBESS
The Constitution of the United States
provides that the Congress shall meet at
least once a year. It is proposed to amend
the Constitution so that after 1880 the ses-
sions of Congress shall be biennial. If this
proposed amendment shall be adopted by
Congress at the present session, there will
be ample time for it to go to the States for
ratification by the Legislatures, so that it
may be in force and effect after the date fixed.
While one Representative is trying to invent
something which will keep the House at
work, dispatch business, and simplify the
operations of the National Congress, an-
other proposes to repress the activity of that
body by confining it to a single session. It
is a confession that Congress wastes time
and euergy, and delays public business by
having so much time to attend to the
things necessary to be done. The House
now numbers nearlv 300 niembers. This
is a large body, and its size necessarily in-
volves confusion, weakness, and aU the bad
.■esults of hasty legislation. The legislation
is hasty because the members begin each
session with a sense of having an almost
illimitable period of tim^ belCore them.
They dawdle away weeks and months in
unprofitable debate, and are finally sur-
prised by the last days of the session
when their work must be done, or be
left undone forever. The "long" ses-
sion, which begins in December of the
year following the Congressional elec-
tion, is terminable at the pleasure
of the Congressn^en. . The " short" session
which begins in December of the second
year after the election of the meinbers
sitting, is limited by the term of those
members' official existence, whieh ' expires
March 4, of the year following, making
that session aboat thre^ months in duration.
The '" long" session is usuaUy extended far
.into the Summer. If, when it does end,
there is a rush of business, (as there always
is,) what must be the effect when th6 ses-
sion is brought to a close by operation of a
fixed lawt
Annually, therefore, ocenra the same
wild rush of bills, the same inevitable drift
of crude legislation, and the same unintelli-
gent interference with the matsrial inter-
ests of the country. - We do not sympatiiize
with the. vulgar and shallow people who de-
ride aU legislation as inqtertinent and
all legislators- as corrupt or igno-
rant. l.Tet, it ■ must' be sonfessied
that . Congress - has ' brought upon it-
self mueh of the odium whieh ' is heaped
on it -by. unthinking and superficial people.
Those who cry out, "Pass the Appropriation
bills andgo'hoiue," do not know what tt^ejr
are talhiiig about. But it is, ne^rUuIesa,
true that a vast amount of the so-called
business of Congress is worse than -useless.
The present Coogreas met in October hmL
IthasbeeninalmoeteontinaoDSseuion up
to this day. Diuing that time verr feW im-
portant laws have been enaated, and
even the Appropriation biUs seeded
for the support of the Qovernmoit
have not aU been - passed. But there have
been introdueedM' the Seiutta about 1,100
bills; udabont 4,3.00 Itilli httn been Istto-
doead in the Honae^ So that, exelnaiTe of

tenth, of tliese Ulls will ever b^eeomelaws.
'ih* pobUo iets ot the Forty-third Congress,
^rst Beaslon, whieh were reckoned numer-
ous, were less than 500 in number.
While Congress is in session, bnainesa in-
terests are in Oontinual jeopardy. 'Vnthout
intending any harm, le^slators are peir-
petually interfering with things which they
know nothing about, and whiih shrivel at
the toueh of a blundering haad^ There is
no security under existing laws so long as
Congress is at work. Last year, alter much
vexation and trouble, a law was passed
regulating a certain industry of the pouu-
try. The latr i» not what the producer,
merchant, and consumer desired, but it
is on the statute-books, and all par-
ties in interest have adjusted their
bnsineAs to its requirements. This year.
Congress lays its heavy hand on that statute,
knocks it from committee to committee, and
from house to house, for several months,
and upsets a productive industry which had
just become settled to what was considered
final. Is it any wonder that business men
Impatiently exclaim, " Go home, ignora-
mnses, and let us alone !" This meddling is
true of innumerable mercantile, produc-
tive, and financial interests of the
Republic. As long as Congress is in session
the temptation to tinker is irresistible. Con-
gressmen, for lack of other employment,
divert themselves with unseemly debates, to
the disgust and disgrace of the country.
And the annual exhibition of vulgarity, par-
tisanship, and meanness which annual ses-
sictas make possible is fast becoming a
public nuisance. Not only so, it is fast de-
teriorating public manners and morals. <
Some such considerations as these have
probably influenced the people of twenty-
six States of the Union, to adopt biennial
sessions 'for their Legislatures. State after
State has declared in favor of this system,
until biennial sessions are the rule in the
following: Arkansas, California, Delaware,
Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan,
Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Ne-
vada, New-Hampshire, ' North Carolina,
Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee,
Texas, Vermont, Virginia, and West Vir-
ginia. This is not a new experiment in
State Legislation, and we have not heard
tha^ any State whieh has tried it pronoses
to return to annual sessions. In the Legis-
lature of this State a concurrent resolution
,to amend the Constitution so as to provide
for biennial sessions has passed the .Assem-
bly without serious opposition. There are
few arguments in favor of this system for
State Legislatures which do not apply with
equalforce to the sessions of the National
Congress. It is not certain that Congress-
men will have the courage and manliness to
circumscribe their opportunities, for dis-
play, self-seeking, and political advance-
ment. But there is a growing conviction
that the world is governed too much. And
if this Congress does not give us some
chance to recover from the nervous prostra-
tion of an annual session, another Congress
will infallibly vouchsafe to us that boon.
THE SETIBKD LIST.
If the Shields incident should serve to
direct the attention of Congress to the na-
ture, needs, and possibilities of the retired
list of the Army and Navy, it will be for-
tunate for the country. It is a curious
illustration, of the random character of
much Army legislation that, without con-
sidering the conditions or limitations of the
retired list, or the statute methods pre-
scribed for retirement and the express re-
striction of the number, a name was put
upon the list, as far as the House action
could do it, as a stroke of partisan tactics
or as a relief from a political quandary.
Gen.' Shields is to be congratulated on this
sudden rush of Congress to reward his
gallant services in ti very conspicuous and
extraordinary way ; but it is none the less
a typical incident of Army legislation by
.Congress.
It is to be noted that no one questioned
the physical or mental fitness of Gen.
Shields to discharge the duties of House
Door-keeper. The thought at once suggests
itself that if this veteran officer is neverthe-
less ripe for the retired list, there must be on
that list many younger and equally vigor-
ous men irho could, like Gen. Shields, ac-
ceptably perform many Governmental du-
ties of an executive character, with a saving
of the salaries now paid to such positions.
In such a utilization of retired Army and
Navy officers for semi-civilian positions may
be found a simple and practical field for civil
service reform ; and there is now pending, in
the Senate a very sensible bill aiming at this
result
Senator Eaton's bill authorizes the Presi-
dent to detail retired officers who may ap-
ply for employment to the Pension Bureau,
the Indian Bureau, the diplomatic service,
the Life-saving Service, and such other
positions as he may think fit. The bill is
brief, and possibly designed as the basis
for legislation rather than as a measure
already complete. There is little doubt
that it could be elaborated into a very use-
ful system. Its scope would now of neces-
sity be much restricted, but should the
provision for compulsory retirement in the
Banning Army Reorganization bill become
a law, and the section of the Revised
Statutes now limiting the Army retired list
to 300 be repealed, tiie pos^ble benefits of
Senator Eaton's measure wonld be in-
creased lor the Navy there already exists
a partial system of 'compulsory retirement
at the age of 62, thoueh. limite^'as to the
grad^ to which it appUes. '. '
It is at once clear that the employment of
retired offlcers in the way provided by Sen-
ator Jl&.TON's bill would famish an unusual
guarantee of fidelity, integrity, intelligence,
and executive skill in positions greatiy need-
ing all these qualities.' For it is fairly to
be presumed that an officer who has reached
the itge of 62 in the .Army .or Navy, or who
has been retired eariier for wounds or disa-
bUities received in the service, with a clear
and honorable record, as attested Ity the
Retiring Board, is an officer to be tirusted.^
If Civil Serriee reform means, in part, the
seearing, as far as possible, of well-attested
integrity and ahiBty for public positions,
snoh ikVaB of retired officers would be a step
toward civil service reform.
Of course, it is not to be supposed that
retired «tl^^Sn, tmder such a system, would
be aa^gned to plaoea fior which they had no
ly wbtild bft to put them in positions rctpdr-
iHg the sort of ability which is also de-
manded in the militaiy and naval servioes —
they wonld be assigned to duties of an ad-
ministrative er executive character. In the
Pension and Indian Bureaus, in the coast-
guard ferrice, in the eare of public lands, in
United States Marshalships, in some parts
of the. revenue service, and in many other
posts that will suggest the.mgelves, thpir
habits of superintendence, of command, and
■ of exact performance of duty, wonld bo of
use to the country. As to the question of
economy there can be no doubt The pay
of a retired officer is by law three-fourths of
the fun pay. ' On being assigned to duty
under Senator Eaton's system he would re-
ceive full pay. This small difference of one-
fourtji the pay of his rank would cover all
the additional expense of salary to the Gov-
emm'ent, so that it is clear that many gover-
mental duties could be performed at a very
much less cost than under existing salaries.
Of oourse, there . would be some outcry
against the absorption of offices by the re-
tired list. But it is to be remembered that
retired officers are already salaried Govern-
ment officials, and the simple question is,
whether they cannot be turned to account
in a wa^ promoting alike efficiency and
economy. Besides, considering the present
assignments of retired,, officers to various
needful duties, there wonld be but an in-
significant fraction of the existing " spoils"
of official patronage to be set aside for this
non-partisan purpose, under Senator
Eaton's system ; nor would the opening of
the present limits of the retired list very
greatly increase the number. Discussed on
its merits, and with a view to the. best ad-
ministration of the public service, there
can be hardly a question that Senator
Eaton's plan merits a trial.

TBE POTTSTOWN IBAGBDT.
It is well known that the perpetrator of
any new variety of crime or outrage is
nearly certain to have imitators. For ex-
ample. Master Jesse Pomeroy was no
sooner found guilty of carving small boys
with his penknife than other youthful mon-
sters began to put their penknives to a
similar use. So common is this tendency
to imitation on the part of criminals that the
conscientious journalist dreads to mention
any unusually atrocious crime, lest he should
thereby awaken among them a depraved
emulation. Some months ago it became
necessary to mention the infamous conduct
of a man who, in the disguise of a woman,
and in the assumed character of an agent
for the sale of patent garters, canvassed
three counties of Pennsylvania, and with
the aid of a tape measure collected statis-
tics the very thought of which makes one's
blood run cold. It was to be expected that
the villain would find imitators, and, ac-
cordingly, no one will be surprised to learn
that the town of Pottstown, Penn., has
just been made the scene of a peculiarly
otrooions outrage.
Nature is a faultless workman — or should
we say working woman f She never makes
a mistake. In order to give women some-
thing wherewith to occupy their minds and
hands, she gave them long hair. At the
same time, foreseeing that circumstances
might arise in which the nossession of long
hair would be inconvenient, she made the
back-hair of woman detachable, so that it
can be taken off and laid aside whenever
such a course seems desirable. This is one
of those facts of science which the Darwin-
ians cannot reconcile with the hypothesis of
development The fossils of whatever stra-
ta give no hint of any progress in the direc-
tion of detachable back-hair, and the female
ape whb is supposed to be the ancestress of
woman has no back-hair at all. No more
bountiful provision than that which permits
a woman to shut one end of her back-hair in
the bureau-drawer, and to hold the other
end in one hand with a view to brushing it,
can be found in the whole eiu^nomy of na-
ture; and no married Darwinian who is
asked by his wife to take her back-hair to
the hair-dresser's to.be " done over," can help
losing faith in his hypothesis, at least to
some extent
Just after the beginning of Lent two
young men came to Pottstown and an-
nounced that they were the sole owners of
a new process of restoring brilliancy and
softness to back-hair, no matter what might
be its age or condition. They began their
operations by distributing to every house in
the town printed circulars, setting forth
their business, and tiaming a ridiculously
low price for their services. In this
circular it was promised that the long-
est switches should be renovated for
ten cents each, while the charge for
renovating curls and "fronts" was even
lower. The ladies of Pottstown were as-
sured that the process of renovation should
be .conducted with the utmost secrecy, and
it would require in no case more than three
days: Xlopies-of alleged Utters signed by
Mrs. ANTB0NT;'lfr8. Clara MoBRis, Presi-
dent Hates, and Miss Clara Lootse Kel-
logg, certifying that their back-hair had
been renovated to their coihplete satisfac-
tion, were annexed to the- circular, and
there was not a woman in all Pottstown who
did not fully believe that she was exception-
ally fortunate in having the circular brought
to her attention.
The next day the two young men, each
carrying a large covered basket, called at
every house to receive orders and back-hair.
They had.printod receipts with them, which
they gave in exiihange for hair, and which
had an extremely genuine and business-
like appearance. Before they had visited
one-quarter of tl^ houses their baskets were
full, and they were obliged to return to their
hotel and fio empty them before taking a
fresh start. Judging from the size of their
baskets, a local scientific i>er8on has esti-
mated that they collected a ton and a half
of baok-hair in the conrse of two days.
There was not — so w^.are assured — a woman
in Pottstown who did not trust her luur to
these audacious wretdies, with the excep-
tion of a few ladies of African descent^ and
each one believed that wi&in three days at
tiie furthest she would receive baek her
cherished locks in a greatiy improved oon-
dition.
For several days after the back-hair of
Pottstown had tiius been placed in the keep-
ing of the pretended hair Tenovators no
ladies were visible on the Pottstown streets.
At the same time every lady at whose house
jmy young man ventured to moke a call
was either "en^iged" or "ill," and de-
clined to receive visitors. On the fifth day
the hotel at whieh the two 'scoundrels had
stoDtMd -ftai v^^^d by eg^ff, of jexeited
koArtattiiutd-bFefbiirai ifho wan hortiited
to learn that tiie twofikir renovators had
left town five days before, earryingwith
themMvea laltge and haavy tmnka. Over
the te«ias irtiieh tookplaee when this terri-
ble 'news reAthed the ladies of Pottstown a
veil' must be 'drawn. , Mach maybefor-
givm in a woman who has been cheated
out ot her baek-hair, bnt it is impossible to
approve of the want of judgment which sev-
eral Jndigatat wives evinced in trying to
replace their winging hair by dra'wing npon
the *hoH and scanty hair of their innoeent
husbands.
There will be no parties in Pottstown for
some time to eome, and so far as tiie local
yonttg men are concerned they will have no
female society whatever. The sudden re-
vival of the baek-hair business in this City
and in Philadelphia, which Western states-
men are ascribing to the passage of the
Silver bill, is due wholly to the demands of
the Potiatown ladies. The two pretended
hair renovators have sailed for Europe -with
theif booty, and the volume of back-hair in
this conittry will be, for some time, too
small for the demand. /

pereons were preeent for the pnrpoee of Infiaeoelns

snnst have been the person wtio made the complaia^
for, Immediately rising to a point of order and a '
question of pririleee, he said that he had been
troubled by strangers eoining to him and tryiag to
influence his Tote, and he gare warning that if the
thing oceorred again, he should at onoe denonaoa
cueh persons to the House. Of course, this little affair
created a sensation, and, as everyboay knew that
the Pine-line bill was to come up for psssagc Id a
short time, the general idea was that the strangers
referred to were looking after that measure ; baft '
it really appeued that the culprit was %
Brooklyn gentleman, who had rather anwisely
beeh teasing members about Hr. Galrin's I>entlsK
bill in which he took a warm interest. The fe^Unc
which the affair caused was still fresh in the Hon: e
when the Pipe-line bill was announced. The Speak-
er; rapping the desk for order, said : *' The Setgeaat-
at-Arms will enforce the .flf^-serenth mle." and
then, glanetng around the chamber, added sharply,
*'he will enforee it quickly." While SergeaBt«fe-
Arms Orr, amid the silence which this order had pro-
duced, rushed about to drire ont all persons not en-
titled to the prtvilctres of the floor, the Totinc npon
the bill began. It happened that jnst at tUs tine
Senator Harvia. of the Twenty-third District eame
leisurely Into the chamber. Probably the fianata
was a little dull and he eame down ataica to And
excitement In the House, or possibly he wa« in-
terested in the Pipe-line bill ; but whatersr the
cause, it happened that he eame in jnst aa the rotiag
began. Hr. Allen, of Erie, had explained hii afflrma-
tive Tote, and called upon all lus friends and aU true
friends of the people to voto with him for the hill ;
Hr. AlTord, who had fought the bill at erary stage
had explained his nsgative Tote and In such a way as
showed that he waa in a very irritaole frame of
fioind ; the Toting went on, and Hr. Brooka was up
explaining his negative vote^ when Hr.
Alvord startled the House^ by ahonting. *'Hr.
Speaker! Hr. Speaker I Here is cme vl
those personf— ri^t ha now, on the floor,
after the order has been given, trying to influence
me to vote ! There he stands now." Hr. Alvord
was angrily gesticulating at the empty air, for the
XMuticular person he referred to was not there by anr
means. He had disappeared from the spot and the
chamber like a flash. A figure had been aeea bye
few to vanish through the vear door ; but who th«
person was no one seemed at that moment to know.
Hr. Brooks had been quito upset by the sudden in-
tormpUon; he now observed, in a mildly, depreeat-
ing way, **I am much disturbed, Hr. Speaker, by
these things,*' whieh waa evidently true. When
hebsdvoteid. the ToIl-call went on. abaenceea ware'
called, again called, votes were cbanxed, and erery
vote one way or the other was eagerly watched. JU(
last the result was announced — ^yeaa 76. nays SO.'
ConsratuUtions were exchanged among the friends
of the bill on their decisive victory. As the measure
has already passed the Senate, the action of the
Honae wa» fl^L and it now goes to the Governor fur
his signature. W&en the bnzz whiui graoted the an-
nouncement had subsided Hr. Alvord roae and
apolo^zed to the House for tbe Istatruptlon
he had made. The gentleman, he said,
that be had mistaken 'for a stranger and
a lobbyist was an honored Senator of tfao
Mtaie, who, of course, had a perfect ri«ht to be upon
the floor and to speak to him [Alvoidj in the way ho
did. He had aoologized to the gentleman himself,
and he now apologized to the House. It would, be
difBcolt to say what feeling was predominant in
those who beard this apology and explanation. Hr-
Alrord acknowledged hi« wrong-dotng so seriously
and manfully, and the tiling itself was so intenvely
Indlcrous, that one could scarcely know whecb«r to
laugh or not. It seemed chat the Senator, by way
of a joke, had suggested to Hr. Alvord tbe propriety
of changing his vote and supporting the bUL Hr.
Alvord waa at that moment feeling very nnamiable ;
he glanced around at the tempts mistook him for
another man, and withou. more ado sprang up and
" went for hUn.'*
One other little incident of tbe morning was aa explo-
sion between Hr. Floyd-Jones and Hr. Alvord, upon
a little loesl bill of the former's, whieh the latter at-
tacked by mistake, and which its author, who had al-
rewedtj fought several severe battles for it at previona
stciges, defended with the energy of despair. "iAx^
floyd-Jones was so exasperated that be said Hr.
Alvord had '* a venomous hatred for him." Hr. Al-
vord fifed up, and demanded that tbe expression be
withdrawn.* Hr. Flovd-Jones said he meant *' a ven-
omous hatred for the bill. " which was satisfactory,
and the bill was just squeezed through by 66 votaa.
Hr. Skinner's constitutiooal amsodments provid-
ing for biennial sessions of the Legislature passed
the House to^y by a decided majority, whlen gave
evidence of tbe persistency with which their author
had worked for them, as well as the tenacity with
whi^ he held on under the most diacoura^ng cir-
cumstances. When these resolutions were eoaald-
ered In Committee of tbe Whole last ^reek they were
treated like a foot-ball, and kicked about till tirnre
seemed to be no vitality left in them. Host men.
would hsve given up all idea of paulng them after
that, but Hr. Skinner happens to be one of the most
obstinate men in the Legislature, and their paaaage
to-day attests his persistent energv. It is not
thou^t, however, that the Senate wiU pass tham.
Tbe afternoon session was almost whoUy devoted
to cansls. The General Canal Appropriation bfU waa
pasaed ; Dr. Hayes' free canal resolutions were finally
recommitted to the Committee on Canals, ana the
Superintendent of Public Works bill, after a long
debate, wa.5 prosressed. The Committee on Cities
reported farorsbly Hr. Holler's HoflTet Bell Beglatar
IhII, Imt there were eevexal dissents, so that
the speaker inquired if any member of tha
committee was in favor of it. Hr. Fish
replied tbat tbere was a quorum of the eoonnlttea
present when the vote upon the bOl was taken, and a
majority voted in favoc of reporting It.
It Issuiprlsins what a number, ot gentleman fm
Dolitlcs frtHn New- York are present in Albtny.
What they are here for. what tney intend or dasbw
to do. or what they e^iectto aeeoii^tUeh, it is' al-
most impossible to ascertain, for nearly every one o£
them teUs a different story. Host luystetkwia of aU

but as he is a person whenever doea ai^tblBg with-

tlon to the btU, and made three points egKbDat it-
first, CMC I' H Citv of !>fW-^'ork cannot now xwdra
from its connection with the City of BrooUvn:
second, that contracts have been entered

any Legislature under the OonatttutSon ahaolve it ;
thbd, the completion ot uie bzidga woald be ttbappuS,
because, as the oiigiaal act ptortded that both cisSsa

favorably.

AMUSEMENTS.
AHUSBAND'l
JIB. THOMAS' SYMPHONY CONCEETS.
-' The pablie rehearsal prepuatory to Mr.
Thomaa* sixth symnhony concert, which is set down
for Satniday svening, took place at Stemway Hall.
yesterday afternoon. The only elements in respect
- of which the orogiamme differed from that in-
terpreted twice already, were an aria from
Weber's " Enryanthe," and the introduction
and llnale from " Tristan nnd Isolde." The
vocalist in both nnmbers was Mrs. E. A.
Osgood, a lady bom, if. we mistake not,^ in
Boston, and who has dwelt some years abroad.
Mrs. Osgood, we are informed, has snng with great
nueew in England, and is here on a brief leave ot
■ abosDea, having be«n speciaQr engaged to take nart
In tha Cincinnati Festival. We are farther informed
that yesterday she was snJfering from indlapoiition.
TTnder these eizcnmstaness we prefer to reserve
judgment npon tha lady's merits rmtil to-morrow
evening. Her performance, on the cecaaion we writo
ot, was feeble, and, whatever additional strength of
tone and steadiness of delivery may be gained be-
tween now and Saturday, there waa nothing in her
first achievement to warrant the belief that the
choice of soeh a try'mg composition as the excerpt
from "Tristan tind Isolde" was anght bnt injn-
didons. Mr. Thomas* or<2heatra tendered the sensn-
onaly heantifal bnt rather vague introduetion to
Wagner's opera with a delicacy of shsdinx and a
wealth of sonorousness which could not well be sur-
passed, and rounded off the proceedings with a f snlt-
less perforaanee of the Fifth Symphony. Mr. Hn-
"ber's playing of Liszt's £ flat eoncerto was not char-
sctorized by abaolnto precision, clearness of
touch being occasionally sacrificed in a ' des-
perate and necessarily fmiilesa attompt to make the
piano rival tbe power ot the band. We cannot help
thltaking that Mr. Thomas now and then subordinates
' the work of liia soloists, whether singers, pianists or
vioUhiata, to that of his orchestral forces, and treats
the voice, the piano, and the violin — in accordance
with the Wagnerian theory — aa component elements
only of a eiganttc whole, of which the band eonsti-
tntea nine-tonths if not a still larger proportion.
VOCAL TIOTON OP NEW-^YOKK.
The Vocal tTnlon of New-York, nnder the di-
rection ot Mr. William Wolaiaffer, gave a concert at
Chlckering Hall yesterday evening. They sang
Smart's " Stars of the Sammer Night" and ** Cradle
Song, " Mendelssohn's "Judge me, O God," Macfar-
rsn'a "Spotted Snakea," and a vazietv of glees
VDd part-Bombei* by CslUn, Leslie, Weelkea, and
Benedict. Tlw work ot the sodaty was nniformly
smooth and precise, and the shading creditable
tiiou«h not, periiapa, of the very highest order at-
tainable. Tbe two soloists weie MUe. Zilie de Lns-
lan and Mr. Theodore J. Toedt. MUe. de Lnssan's
solo— a half-spoken half-sung ehantoruutu^ called
** Bnt then, what could 1 do," showed that
the TOung performer possesses a pure and rather
powerful voice, of agreeable quality and sufficient
eompass ; the song afforded her, however, no oppor-
tunity whatever for execution. Mr. Toedt, who ren-
dered Clay's pretty though somewhat monotonons
•"na batter not to know," has a pleasant tonor
voice, tbe slightest effort tinaeing the higher tones,
tmfortonatoly, with a nasal timbre not very otfen-
f live, bnt too distinct to pass unnoticed. Mr. Toedt
Bang with feeling and discretion, and he was encored.
We have no intention to protest sgainstthispartlsnlar
token of an audience's approval, but should like to
place on record a protest against the abuae of
' •neores in connection with coneerta generally, and, es-
pedally, concerts given by amateurs. There were 13
or 14 pieces setdownfor interpretation, last night, and
.yet most of the songs were redemanded- When
; compliments are paid with so marked a lack of dis-
cretion—and we wish It to be understood, we repeat,
that thla ofasaiTatlan ia suggested by recollections ot
many coneerta and not wholly by yesterday's— ex-
emption from a recall wm end by being eonsldaced

known of the Fogartys untU the prsaant trUQsdy
brooghttbe family into sa«b promlnanea. Fogarty
wu bora ot well-to-do parents, is the Cpasty of
Tipperary, Ireland, in 1838.. Whan a lad ha waa a
grocer's apprentice. He served, hla tiise in Thurles,
and became acquainted with Margaret Keboe, ayoung
lady who belonged to a good fanUly, and who at that
time was a pnpU In the OrtnlttM eanvaat-lnthat
town, from which she stibse4aantly gnidB»te<L
Fogarty was much given to sport and ir^tt. When
his apprenticeship bad-expired be became dissatis-
fied and went to Australia, settling in Qaaeaalstnd.
He started In the grocery business there and 'floar-
ished, making a large fortune. Aft^r Miss kehoe
had graduated she secured a positien as gbvanusa In
a noble family. She did not remain long
there, however, and when she was 19 Jeais
ot age she went to Australia. After. being
there some time ' she accidentally met Fogarty at a
reception, and was surprised to leaxn of bh good
fortune. She also renewed acqnalntanee with an
Irish priest whom she hsd known in ThnrlM^ and he
took great interest in ber and secured her a situ.
ation as governess in oue ot the best families in
Queensland. Fogarty renewed his aeqnalntanee
with Miss Kehoe, and they became intimate friends
and formed a redproesl attacuaent. The young
lady's clerical friend did not much like the prospect.
He knew that Fogarty was worth abont £13,000,
bnt he also knew that he was " fast," addicted to
drink, and had a most violent temper. The priest at-
tempted to dissuade the young woman from keeping
company with Fogarty, but she kept up the alliance,
ind secretly married Fogarty in 1860. Thehoabaifd
and wife lived hapoily together until 18S8, the Only
c oud that Obscured their happiness up to .that time
being tbe death of a little daughter. They ha^ re-
maining two sons, William .and James J. In
1S68 Fozarty settled , up his business in Queenv
land and moved with his faa||Uy back to Ireland, go-
log strsight to Thorles. There he opeaed a grocery
store, hut toon got entangled in a lawsuit^ and tnbse-
quentlT removed to Drogheda. Attar starting there
he fell to fast living and drinking, neglecting his
business and causing much troi^ble in his family-
This went on until 1870, when he left home one
day, leaving his wife in ehnrgeofhls affairs, and
cams to America with $8,000 in hit oossession. He
remained here one .vesr. spending his money itt riot-
ous living. He snd'denlT went home. He spent some
time in the north of Irelsnd, and jizhId came to New-
Tork in 1872. On tliis occsslon he left his wife so
sndoenly that she thought he had deserted her. He
steid in thit Ciiy one year before ho wrote to
his wife. He then tolu her to close up
the business at Drogheda, and come to New-Tork.
She did so. and arrived here with her two sons and
little danghter, Ellen. When she arrived her hus-
band's fortune was quite small. He was then em-
ployed in the tea business with Stiner, at the comer
of Forty-first-street and Eighth-avenue. After some
time he set up for himself at Eightoenth-slreet and
Ninth-avenue. He did well, and toon bought a
grocery at No. 723 Tenth-avenue. His nabits
of fAst living began now to tell upon him.
He drank more than ever, and his temper became
more violent- His business dwindled, and he was
forced to quit his laree grocery and take a smaller
one at the comer of Forty-aecoud-street and Ninth-
avenue. His temoer waa not improveu any-by the
effects of sonatroke. which he suffered doring 1876.
Things went on this way until the Spring of 1877,
when he deserted his wife and went to Chicago.
HUSBAOT) AND WIFE IM A POLICI COtTBT.
On last Wednesday moraine Mrs. Fogarty appeared
before Justice Duffy at the Jefferson MarkstTPcHco
Court, accompanied by her husband.
they bad come to have a family qi
'ift
Hbe said that
. uarrel settled.
Her atory was substantially sa followa : She had
been married to her hasband 16 vea.S; they bad
three children, and had lived hspplly together until
a couple of years ago, when, for various reasons
which she did not care to mention, domestic dissen-
sions crept into their home. A little over ayear ago
they kept a grocery store on the corner of Nlntn-
avenue and Forty-second-street. Mr. Fogarty had
reasons to leave the City . suddenly. Before
going he collected all the bills be could, disposed
of as much stock as possible, sold a qnantity
of his wife's clothes and all tlie jewelry she had, tak-
ing with him as the proceeds of bis unfsir work some
*1.500, and leaving her hesvlly in debt to her wljole-
aale grocers. Fovrarty's fiight created a great deal of
gossip, and Thurber &, Co., ber principal creditors,
took preLmiDsty claims toward secoring their claims
by selling Mrs. fogsrty's stock. But after making
inquiries into the matter tbe firm were to
well satiafied as to tbe woman's iiktelli-
genc^ honcaty, snd capAbllities that they re-
xosed to annoy her, bat allowed bar credit and
took her two boys into their employ. Then Mrs.
Fogarty moved into Forty -second-street, and rented
tbe first floor of No. 330. just opposite the Catholic
Chnnh of the Holy Cross. On this floor there are
four zooms, a front store-room, two bedrooms l>e-
hind tiiat. and a kitcnsu in the rear. Tbe woman
fitted up the store-room with a stock ot groceries,
and again commenced bttsiness. - Her friends and
acqni^taaeaa took interest la her sneeess, patron-
ized ber, and she did weU. From Chiesgu Whither
he had Bme, Fogarty heard ot hiS wife's soed for-
tune, and when his own mesas wen exhaasted he
ictained to New-Tork, after an. abaesee of a year.
Eeatfirst pretended to work' by peddling t^aaon
commission -, he next asslslitd.bls wife in the gro-
cery, and at last, about a week ago, asairtad hiiaselt
the proprieter of tbe esteBlishmeBt, and did as be
pleased with the revenues. Mrs. Fogarty said she
was resDonsible to ner cre^Btors, and if he were
allowed to divert the proceeds Of her bdsiaess to pa^
poses of his own she could not keep oa her credit
and would soon be bankrupt. After Mra. Fwarty
had told the above story ber husband attempted to
'convinco the court that when he left tor CbMaso he
left »2,500 worth of stock in tbe greeery; that
afterward he sent bu wife *3p0. and only left hia
home because she abused him and received company
that be objecteo to. Justice Duffy refused to have
anything to do with the case; as -nothing criminal
waa aUeced. and advised the parties to go to a
dvU court for redress. It they oil not
destie a divorce- Fogarty said hahadnoreaMB-for
divorce aninst his wife; she s^dsbehsaBethlng
against him ex'WDt what she had already eomiilatned
of— abe eonld not accuse him of assault and nttteiy,
nor of abase, nor even of dlBotdeiAy' Boodtuc She
then asked it the conn would advise ber aa to bar
rtghte it it had not jnrisdietlod in the eaae. Jnatice
Duffy said that she alone ewned the stoce and. had
a ri^ to its revenues aadleyiiAndtiuttt F|X*rty
had tbe keys he shoald give tham «p to
her: tbat if ber husband. anaeyed her se amrh
as to break the peace be Wdald lasae n' war-
rant for hU arrest. Theronpon .Fogaitir haoM. his
wife the store keys, bnt kept tho;kay of tte kttthesL
Mrs. Fogarty immediately diseorteed this, ana told
the court of it. "Why," said the 'Justice, "do you
not want your husband to . go to j'our house T"
"Judge." she replied, "I do not want htUitdsama
to the Iwuse. Ho will injur* my btisine*. diiw-sway
my custom by his pieseo<e,'*na kbep me nriieMble.
I wish that ha could be kept ftoffl thfr house. "

He then staggered over to the table on the oppo-
stde ot >he room, put ont the Ught, and fell
to the floor. When Officer Buckley reached the
house it was dark. He atmek a Ught aad
found Fogarty lying on his face in a pool
of blood, dead. HU wife was dead, lying with bar
body In her bed room and her head on the pillow jost
across the kitehen door-sill. Tbe Police ot the
Twentieto Precinct were Immediately notified, and
took possession of the house.
The kitchen floor was covered- with trarka of
blood. Underneath the mirror, where Fogarty eat
his throat, was a large pool ot blood. The soles of
his feet were smeared with blood, and there were
crimson tracks of his test all abont the floor. Ths
pillow under the woman's head sras smeared with
bloody finger-marks. It waa a alckening algbt, and
more than one strong policeman had to torn away
from the scene sick and faint. When Coroner FUnacan
and Deputy Coroner Miller arrival it was decided to
remove the bodies to the Morgue for tbe purpose ot
making careful antopsies. One reason ot .this. was
that Mrs. Fogarty's body was covered with blood,
which could not be accounted for by tbe piesMiee of
the wounds on her body. Her flesh was ebazied on
the right cheek snd down ber neek and back ; ber right
eye waa burned oat, the right ear bamed almost
off. and part ot her clothes and part of the bed-
clothes burned to powder. Tbe bodies were Secord-
ingly removed to the dead-bouse. The children wei^
fent to Mrs. Lang's, at No. 817 Tenth-avenue, and
aa the Messrs. Thurber & Co. had ordered Mr. John
Murray, of No. 41» West Porty-second-street, te at-
tend to the funeral at their expense. Coroner Flana-
gan directed that the keys of tbe house should be
given to blm. , . .
At 6 o'clock the antopsy -was negnn. It was found
that Fogarty hud severed tbo larynx on the right
side and had died of asphyxia, his lungs being
clogged srith blood from the wounds in his throat.
A steb wound was found on hia left bresat. in the
same spot in which he had struck his wife. The knife
was prevented from reaching his heart by «n inter-_
veninc rib, th* wound being slight on that account.
Mrs. Fogarty was found to have died from intense
Internal hemorrbase prodnced by the nowerful acid.
The stomach waa full of blood, and the intestines
were almost entirely eaten away. In fact, tbe
entire interior of her body waa a most ghastly
sii^t. being honeycombed with the charred holes
made by the acid The sUb in the left breast waa
pronounced not necessarily fatal It was the Cor-
oner's opinion that Foearty attecked his wife while
she sras asleep, opened her month, poured the acid
down her throat and held her until she bad swal-
lowed the dote and until her violent struggles threw
him off. The Coroner bases this opinion upon the
fact that so much of the add found ite way fiito tha
woman's stomach. . , -

of the Sapieme and Appdlsto Courts, ^there
■were only two Stnto officers to be nominated— •
Treasurer and SnpariDtendent of PnbUo In-

were a midtitnde of sspiraato for the leading

and S. H. Etter, the p;eaeht inonmbent, for
Snperintondent of Pnblic Instruction.
After the nominations had been made, W. W.
O'Brien, of Chicago, presented s resolution
returning the thanks of the Demoeiaey ot Il-
linois to Congressman W. JL Springer for his
" patriotic and independent course in voting
for that veteran Democrat oitd gallant soldier,
Gen. James Shields, for Door-keeper of the
Honse of Bepresentotives. The. reading of
the resolution created a sensation, and it was
interrupted with most vociferous shouts of
"No, no," "Yes, yes." It 'was evident that
there was a most decided diversity of senti-
ment on this question, and after hav-
ing the rule for its reference to
the committee suspended for the purpose of
discQSdon, an Egyptian member moved to ad-
journ, and this latter motion wasadopted with
a terrific burst of cheers, and the convention
was over. This "snap judgment " excited . most
particularly, the indignation of the Inah wing
of the Cook County deleeatlon, and they ctirsed
the Southern element without stint.
This evening the Democratic State Central
Committee organized by the election of T.W.Mo-
Neely, of Menard, aa Chairman. This ouste
C. H. McCfrmiek, asroinst whom there has been

toke the head-quarters of th* convention from
Chicago, succeeded in so doing and de.'signating
SpriDgfleld as the place. The following is the

■The Democrata who were gathered in Sprine-
field to-dav ate quite enthdsiostic, and have
great expectations. They say now, as thev have
always said at the beginning of a campaign,
that they are going to elect their ticket. They
calculate on supposed dissentdons in the Repub-
lican ranks, and think that the disagreement
between tbe President nnd the Republican Con-
gressmen will demoralize the Republicans and
give the Democrats tbe State. Thev have
whipped into line nearly all of their fellows
who. have been wandering after strange
gods, in the shape of Grangers and
Greenbackcrs. They pretend to feel relieved
because they are rid of tbe " Nationals, ",thoagh
thev admit that the Nationals will toke more
vd#3 from them than from the Republicans. A
straisbt Democratic ticket was what they de-
manded almost unanimously.
The platform waa the cause of much anxiety
to the delegates- One crowd was afraid of say-
ing too" much ; another of saying too lit-
tle. On the currency question they were
of one mind, with tbe ex^'eption . of
Gov. Palmer, who alone advocated the insertion'
of an "honest money" pl-tnk. Palmer stands
almost alone on th is question. There was a dis-
position to commend the Southern policy
of tbe Hayes Administration, and at
the same time denounce Hayes himself
as " a fraud and a usurper," and invitehim to
" step down nnd out" The prevniline opinion
seemed to be thiit the less said about Congress
the better for the Democracy.
Tbe following is the platfortn :
The Democracy of Illinois sssembled in convention
congratulate the country on the .final settlement of
the questions resulting from the Iste civil war upon
the principles of local self-govef^ment so
long supported by the Democratic Party,
and reaffirm confidence in toe caparitv of the people
to govern themselves, sad their belief in
the supremacy of the civil over the military
power, the liberty of individual nction,
uncontrolled by sumptuary lawa. the separation of
Church and State, tne support of free common
schools, and the doty of all to yidd to the lawfully
expressed will of the majority : and we declare
i^irzf — That reform must be made in national.
State, ctyinty. and munielpd government bv a re-
duction of taxes and expenditures ; the di5mls.««l of
unnecessary and incompetent officers and employes
from the public service, snd the strict enforcement
of official resDoosibllity : nnd that the provisions
ot the Stste Constitution limltinc the iadebtednefs
and the rate ot taxation shall be strictly observed
and enforced.
Second — That a tariff for revenue only should be
adopted^ end, if diaciimlnation Is made, it should
be in favor of the necessaries of Hfe : and.
in order to relieve the mass of the i>eople. who are
taxed too much, a graduated tax on Incomes over a
reasonsble sum for support on^^ht to be adopted
and placed upon the surplus profits of the wealthy,
who escatie their just pmourtion of raxatlnn.
27(ird — We favor United States bonds and Treasury
notes beiog subjected to taxation the same as other
property.
/'ettrt*.— Ml contracta ought M be performed
in' good faith. according te the terms
thereof, and the obligations of toe Govern-
ment dischareed in lawful - money. except
where otherwise expressly provided upon their face,
and by the law upon which they 'were raised, and re-
pudiation should find no favor with an honorable
i}eople.
Fiftlt—Xt is unwise to make any further reduction
of theprindpdof thepublicdebtforthepcesent : snd
bonds as they mature, orsooner if possible, should be
reolaced by' issue of other bonds bearing a lower
rate of interest. It is the duty of the Federal Gov-
ernment to Isiiue bonds in small denominntion«, to
be sold in this country for the sccomniod-Htion of
those who wi^h tt. invest savings in safe securities.
Sixth — That we favor tbe immediate and ancondl-
tiOnal repeal of the Kcsumption act.
Seventh — We applaud the action of Congress in the
enactment of the Silver hill and accept it as a partial
measure of finnDciat relief, but we demand such
farther legislstioa as msyresult in sntborizing silver
bullion certificates r.ud letcalizing free coinage of the
silver dollar, the demonetizatioa of which we de-
nounce as an act meriting the condemnation of the
people.
Eighth — It is the exclusive prerogative of the
United States to issue all bills locircuiate as money,
and a right which ought not to be exercised by any
State or corporation.
yinth — No further contraction of the volume of
legal-tender Treasury notes ought to be allowed, and
they should be received for Onstoms, taxes, and pub-
lic duea aa well as private debts, and nissned as fast
as received.
Tenth — The national bank notes should be retired,
and instead thereof there should be Issued by tbe
Government an equal amount of Treasury notes.
Eleventh — Subddles in money, bonds, lands, or
credit, ought not to be granted by toe Federal Qbv-
emmcnt.
IVw{IUi— The Bankrupt law bnght to be immedi-
ately repealed-
TMrtrenfk— Tbe eoorta should be brought as close
to toe homes of lltiganta as economy in the f?ovem-
ment will justify, and that, thenton. the judicial
power of the United Stites shohld be so regu-
lated as to prevent, in controversica between citi-
zens of different States, the transfer of cases
from State to inferior courts, which an
so far removed from, the people as to
make justice therda Inconvenient; expendve. and
tardy. Not less than 95,000 shoalfl be fixed as the
minimum jurisdiction of sach eonrta in sneh contio-
venies.
iburt«n(A— The appointment bt Federal eonrta
ot ' Recelven ot eorpontlcns, who zedst pay-
' ment of taxes, disregard ' the righta of
dtisalia and torn tbe sarings of corporations
Intd foreign chauneta. la an evil that onaht to be'

THE MISSISSIPPI BOUTE.
TEN THOUSAND BUSHELS OF IOWA 'WHIAT
SHIPPED TO LIVERPOOL AT POBTT CENTS
PER HUNDRED POUNDS.
The Davenport (Iowa) Oaaetfe ot the 6th inst
says: "Testetdav the grain firm of Boatwrigtat Fer.
iiald & Co., in this dty. sold S.OOO boshels ot wheat
to an agent of J. W. Adams ft Co.. of St. Louis, for
direct shipment from this port to Liverpool This
quantitydoes not go done, tor anotoer 5,000 bushels
was picked up from among several other grain
deden. The 10,000 bushels is to be loaded on a
barge, towed to St. Louis, wben it will be put wito
a tow of five barges, and so be taken to New-Orieans,
and transferred to an ocean vessel bonnd for Liver-
pool. What is the freight rate from Daven-
port to Liverpool t Why. just 40 cents
per hundred pounds; the same rate of gnln
by railroad from Davenport to New- York City!
Though now and then wheat will be taken from thia
city to New- York bv ra'il for 35 cents per 100 pounds.
But think of wheat conveyed from this eit.v to Liv-
erpool for only live cents mora than the rail rate to
New- York Harbor ! Who can estimate the vdue of
the Mississippi route to the sea and Europe, to Iowa
and the Nonb-west. with that facility of transporta-
tion and that tariff to Liverpool 1 Why, we'll have
New- York prices nt;ht here at home, for wheat and
com. with such a state of things. t>ef ore long — pro-
vided the railroads leading to the Mississippi give a
reasonable rate to the gnat river. Davenport proa-
pen as a grain market. "
EMIORATJOy FSOII OEBXAXT.
A report just presented to the German
Reichstag gives some particulars ot the number and
destination of the persons who emigrated from Ger-
many last year. The total number of persoos who
left the German porta of Bremen and Hamburg in
1877 amonnt«(l to 41,759. being condderably less
thau in 1876. when 50,577 persons emigrated from
the same ports. Of the 41,759 persons, again, 22,-
570 sailed from Hamburg and 19, 189 from Bremen.
Of those who took their deoarture from the former
place, 1S,573 emigrated directly in SO steamers and
11 sdling ships. 3,570 indirectly by way of Eng-
land, and 72 left in vessels not declaiwl to bo
emigrant ships; 17.239, again, were adults, 4,063
were children between 1 and 10 years
of age, and 1,218 were Infants not 12
months old ; 13,840 wen males, and 8.730 wen fe-
males. Of those who left Hamburg, 12.643 wen
dcRtined for New- York, 274 for the. West Indies,
2,920 for Brazil and the River Plate, 1.295 for the
Cape of Good Hope. 38 for Chili, and 1,405 for Aus-
tralia, or the 19,189 dispatched from Bnmen,
14,933 were adults. 3.160 children between 1 and
10 years of age, and 1,096 infants less than a year
old; 11.162 were males and 8,027 females. Ot the
total number sailing from Bremen, 13,357 went to
New-York, 3.180 to Baltimore. 858 to New-Orleans
aud Havana, 1.013 to Brazil, and 781 to the
River Plate. Of the whole number, however, who
thus sailed from the German ports, 21,618, or about
one-half, were foreigners. 5.005 coming from Bus-
sis. 4.633 from Austria. 1.219 from Denmark, and
8,378 from Sweden, Norway, and other countrlea-

■ , A 6IAST COMING.
The Richmond (Va.) Flit; of the 11th inst.
says : "In his rambles about toe dty yesterday a
Whig reporter met a ratoer remarkable character,
CO less than a modem giant — a man who, during bis
brief 'stay In the dty. created quite a sensation on toe
streets as he wdked about, and cansed almost every
passer-by to turn and look back at him as he passed.
Charles Tumley, the character referred to. is 8 feet
in height and weighs aomething over 450 pounds.
Tumley arrived in this city yesterday from
Nort'n Carolina on his way ^o New-York
in search of work at his trade of plasterer. He
is a quiet and nnobtrudve man in his manners, con-
verses pleasantly and modestly. Tumley says he
haa three brothers who are nearly as tall as himself,
and wei::h equally as mnc4. although all of them
are younger. This modem giant said to the writer
that he never made use of. a acaffold to plaster sny
ordinary room. Tumley, in conversation, remarked
that he had received flattering offers from prominent
cirens men, bnt he had invariably declined to make
his living in this way. Oor ^gantic friend left laat
night for the North iu search of employment."
OBAXOES ASD SWEET ZiEUOSS.
The San Francisco Alfa of the Ist inst says :
"The sweet lemon, which has of late made ItsilrBt
appearance in the San Francisco market, so tar as we
have observed, is an interesting though not very val-
uable addition to our aub-tropical fruits. In form,
color, and flavor it suggests a cross 'between toe
lemon and the orange, being inferior to toe latter,
with which it is broiight into competition, in sweet-
ness aud qtiantity of juice. The dispute among lead-
ing Los Angeles orchardista about the policy of graft-
ing the omnge has not resulted in any agreement,
and we think that, under tne circumstances, the mul-
titude who want orance trees should nrefer the seed-
ling as certainly cheaper and possibly equally good.
The orange is hardier than the lemon, lime, or tweet
lemon, and prububly the seed of the Los Angeles
oraoge is the best for planting. The orange begins
to ripen in this state in December, but changes very
alowlj-. and, according to some authorities, is not
fully ripe till April so that toe crop is avdlable for
marketing in the late Winter and the early Sprijig, at
a time when there is little, other fruit to compete
with it. Tbe thickness of its skin and iu keeping
qualities fit it for long shipments, so tbat it can be
sent to the Atlantic States with little loss."
THE SHALL ARMS BOARD.
The Hartford Evening Post ot the 5th inst.
says : " The Small Arms Board appointed by the
Government to conduct a series of testa of arma at
the Sprlngfidd Armory ba-,-e commenced work. The
only companies now represented an the Colt's, of
Hartford, nnd tbe Merwin, Hurlhurt&Co., of New-
York, but all the promlneut manuf actunrs of the
country are expected to submit arms for examina-
tiuu. Oa Thnraday the l>oard commenced the test of
Geti. Wiitiara B. Fraukltn's gun, manufactured at
Colt's. For the present the bosrd will meet at 10
o'clock inthe forenoon and listen tn the reading of
Lieut. Geer's record of tbe proceedings of the day be-
fore, and in the afternoon proceed with the experi-
mente. some of which will be conducted at toe
armory and some at the water-shops. The board
have adopted substantially the rulea ot 1872-3 to
govern the tests of the mus which may be presented
to them during toe present session."
AA' UNPLEASANT PREDICAMENT.
The Utica Herald tells of the following matri-
mouid complication : " A German named Suitz.
living at Cherry .'Vdley, has placed himsdt in a
ruther remarkable predicament. His wife has long
been an ipvalid, and a few days ago, thinking tbat
she was dying, she insisted- that her husband should
comply wito her oft -repeated re<;uest to make her
sL-^ter his second wife. Nothing would suit Mrs.
Suitz bnt to have the marriage occur before she
clo:'ed her eyes iu death. The ceremony was accord-
ingly performed, a neighboring Justice of the Peace
ofliciatiuc and strange to say Mrs. Suits No. 1 has
rallied snd is rapidly growing stronger and probably
will get well. Mr. Suitz is anxious to know how be
can read his title clear."

ed. The reports in the momiDjc paper*, sstting
forth the reasons actuating ti)e Plnietors of the

notucement yesterday in regsird to the action of
the oompany, and contributed not a little to im-
part a, firmer tone tO' speculation. The North-

The Sterling Exchange market WM weak.
The advance in rates yesterday has not been
sustained; on the contrary, real buainesa,
which was light was done for the most part at
our lowest quotations. The fear prevails among
drawers of Sterling that the success of the Sec-
retary of the Treasury in his negotiations with
our banks to place bonds will result in a great
diminution, if not the entire cessation, of im-
porting operations in our Government securi-
ties. Commercial bills continue in fair supply
sn<i are fully up to the oramary demands from
merchants- The following were the quotations
for actual business: Bankers' OO-day bills,
$4 863$4 StiU: demand, $4 88%a$4 89;
cables, $4 89s$4 89^. and commercial bills,
$4 843$4 8412-

nouncement was made that the Secretary of
the Treasury had closed aa agreement with
members pt the former syndicate for the disposal
of $50,000,000 of the i'h '^ cent bondsatpar
and accrued interest and 1^ ¥ cent premipm;
$) 0,000.000 to be taken Immediately, and the
remainder in monthly installments of $5,000,-
fl<X>. Bsilroad bonds were dull, the transao-

Tha story of ihe negotiations preceding the agree-
ment of yesterday haa been tnbatantlally told in Thi
TiKXS so far aa thoT have progressed from day to
day. There are a few details, however, that are now
ofBdally made public for the ilrst time, that will be of
interest- Hr. Sherman waa, aa haa already been
aald, conTlnced that the Resumption act might be
practically carried out on Jan. 1, 1879, if,ia addition
to the gold already in the Treaanry -ranlta, (amount-
log to $140,000,000.) and such as he could probably
accumulate in the Interval, he could get a guarantee
from the bankers of an additional large sum, rani;-
Ing from $50,000,000 upward. There are many
financiers of judgment and experience who belieTe
that the atep he liaa taken waa unneeasaary. They
held that $140,000,000 would be more than saS-
elent to take np all tba greenbacks that wonld be
oifered for redemption once resumption was declared.
They argned that, with greenback the equal of gold,
the people wonld much prefer greenbacka and that
eves if gold were at a small preminm very little of
the enormous quantity of greenbaeka diatiibnted
through the pockets of the populace, and need.
sd by them to purehaae food and doth-
hig and pay dehta, would be. carried to the
5nb-Treasnriea for - exchange. Ther pointed
tt tha faet that Secretary Brlstow resumed
spede payments is allTer ander mtieh greater disad-
Tantagea, and to tiia other faet tliat there still re-
mains oat OTer $18,000,000 of fractional currency,
whose convenience in w^«Vpff change by nudl and for
other purposes haa caused the people to withhold it
trom redemntion. It is understood that the Secre-
tary was somewhat timid aa to his ability to create
the neeeasary confidence with but $140,000,000 of
jcoid on hand, and to make aasnrance doubly sure he
hit upon the plan jnat eonaummatad. When he came
to this City he waa nataraHy anxious to make the
best terms posaiblew He first made a trial of the pri-
vate bankers, and auheeq[iLently on the same day of
the national banka. Ea pointed ont that resumption
would be a partienlady good thing for them,
and woond np by submitting a proposition
that they ahoold take $100,000,000 or as
much more aa they wished of hia lowest
Inteieat bonds (4 per cents) at par in gold, in such in-
stallmenta aa they might choose, giving him a guar-
antee that tha gold would ha at hia call on Jan. 1
next. While the bankers were willing to assist his
project in eTcry possible way,'they did not care to
cake suah a risk aa he sought to impose apon them.
The 4 par cent, bonds were, they aald, too slow of
sale to be relied upon, and there waa no certainty of
l>aing able to harp soeh an amount of gold availahle
on the date apeeified. A thonaand thinga might
happen to cause a.dzain, and in such as event they
wooldbe ataeiloiu loss. AH sorts of snggestiona
>nd eomproBiisaa were oifered and rejected on both
tides. The bankers held firmly to a rate which
would leave them a sufficient margin of escape from
possible damage, but this the Secretary would not
grant. They then deeUned to give the guar-
antee naked tor. Thay were willing to take the
bonda and do thair beat with them on condition that
they mignt hf ve the srivHece of Tetnming each a>
they wonld not he able to dlspoaeof; hot, as there
waa no advantage in this, tha Secretary applied to
the members of the old 4 per cent, syndicate.
These aentleman, after oiseaasion and eonaidaratlon,
offered to take $50,000,000 4I9 nar cents., coupons,
at par in gold, irith >sper eent. off aa commission,
ud give tha gnaraatae asked for. Th«y would sot
taTiebtha4iwree]ita on any meh tanu. Secretary
Sherman wanted 103 and aaeraed intareat, which ia
Beveral per cent, above tha market price. The agree-
ment of yesterdar waa a eomiiromise. On one aide
it waa claimed that the probable appiedaHon of the
bonda should h« constdered. On tha other, the risk
of not finding pnrciiaaexa at favorable ratea, the loss
of proflta on exchange, the rata of which
wt>ald have to be kept down, and the oifli-
enlty feaerally of making raeh a sam of gold
available, ware rehearsed. Uaking allowance for tha
accrued interest, the prlee i^ieh the Treaanry got for
the bonda waa lOS 3-100. Making tha aame allow-
ance, yasterdar'a market price for 419s, in gold, waa
302. Tha sale ia regarded on the street aa an excel-
leirt one for tha Traaaury, and It is believed that tha
effect of tha wilUngneaa of responaibla baakera to
bay sad> an amount of bonda wHl be to favorably
affect the pnbUe credit both at home and abroad. Aa
to tha poaalUDty of lasomption at the appointed
timet tha genaral epialon among financial men la that
yesterday'a baqcals haa made it reaaonably certain of
accompliahmant.
WHAT 8ECBETABY SHERMAN SATS.
SeeretarT- Sherman was fotind laat eyening in
his room at the Fifth-Avenna Hotel busy with hia
slerk over a pUa of letters. Ha waa ^parently in
bia btfst hunxor, and no longer desired to postpone

BANKERS' VIEWS ON THE SUBJECT.
A TncBS reporter called on Hr. Joeeph Seliftr-
man yesterday afternoon and asked him abont the
agreement. Mr. Seligman said that the slip issued
from the Sob-Treasury and printed above contained
the gist of the whole matter. In answer to further
questions, Mr. Seligman substantiated the points
above detailed as to the character and progress of
the preliminary neeotiations. He claimed that the
price was a very close one. and that exchange would
have to be kept down- during the next nine
months to prevent the gold now In the
country from leaving it, and to make a
sufficient sum availabie when called for. This
he thocu;ht could be accomplished, bnt not without
saerifleea, and he looked to a probable appreciatioD
in the price of the bonds for his compensation. He
said that the syndicate sbould have had a low<>r rate,
but they were willing to strain a point to help the
Secretary in a matter for the general good. 3Ir.
August Belmont said the Sub-Treasury alip cou-
tained all he cared to say on the subject.
Ur. H. 0. Fahnestock. who. with Mr. O. F. Baker,
represented the First National Bank in the confer-
ence, said that the oCBcial statement made by As-
sistant Treasurer Hillbouse really set forth all the
results of the conference between Secretary Soer-
man and the syndicate. There was very little dis-
cussion, and as the subject talked over liad been un-
der consideration for some days there waa really not
much occasion for talk. The object of the mission
of Secretary Sherman had doabtless been satisfift;-
torily accomplished. He came to New-York with a
definite idea in his mind, and he had secured
the co-operation of the ^^yndicate. The Secretary's
Idea, Mr. Fahnestock understanas. is to resnme specie
payments as soon as he can increase the amount of
the gold In the Treasury from $140.000,000— which
it now holds— to $190,000,000. When he reached
this City on bis mission he visited the bankers and
held separate conversations and joint conferences
with them. He found them very willing to advance
theories and to give advice, but not ready to make
any definite offers. Wben he met the syndicate yes-
terday he proposed that th^ should bny
$50,000,000 of 4 or 4ia per cent, bonis
to assist him in his purpose, and he wanted
them to pay 103, goid. This proposition
was not adopted, as tne syndicate were unwilling to
nay so high ' a price, while thoy were willing to sup-
port Secretary Sherman in his plan if there was the
smallest chance of holding their own. It was con-
sidered unwise for them to take the whole amount at
one time, and, after further consideration, a compro-
mise was reached, and the syndicate decided to take
950.000.000 of the 4I2 per cent, bonds at 102, the
first S10.000,000 to be boucht at once, and the re-
mainder in monthly installmento of $.%000,000.
This precaution of stipulatng that the small pay-
ments should De made was adopted to avoid any sad-
den or large witbdrawal'of specie from the market.
Mr. Fahnestock looked upon the arrangement as a
good one, and believed that there would be no diffi-
culty about selling $50,000,000 of bonds withm the
year. Last year $40,000,000 of 4 and 413
per cent, bonds were easily sold, and he saw
no reason why, with a rising market for United
States securities, which were looked upon now as by
far the safest investment for money, the sightly
large amount to be placed in the market could not
be disposed of. So far as the syndicate is concerned,
he believed their part of Secretary Sherman's plan
cotUd be carried out.
Mr. £. P. Fabbri, of Drexel Morgan A Co.. aald
that the whole sto^ was fully and truthfully told in
the statement made by Treasurer HUlhouse, and he
could say nothins more on the subject. -
A MI8EK8 FVNESAL,
BUBIAL or BARBARA ALLEN — HSR KFFECTS
TCRNZD OVER TO THE PtTBUC ADKIKIS-
TRATOR.
The funeral of Barbara Allen* the miserly old
woman, who was found In a dying condition sear the
Fulton Ferry, In Brooklyn, on Tuesday nii^t, took
place yesterday afternoon from . the undertaker's
shop, where the body had been taken. The remains
were removed to Oreen-Wood for interment. Mrs.
Clift, of No. 149 Madison-street, at whose house
SCrs. Allen last boarded, turned over the dead worn*
an's effects to Mr. Algernon S. Sullivan, the Puhlle
Administrator, yesterday, and they will be removed
to bis office to be examined to-day. Mrs.
Clift looked over such articles as wera not
locked, and found a bank-book on the
Bleecker-Street Savings Bank representing
a deposit of $2,014 57. This was also given to the
Public Administrator. Mrs. Clift said that now that
Mrs. Allen was dead, she could recall many things
which ought to have convinced her loog ago that the
old lady had a considerable sum of money. She
was a very intelligent woman, and took more than a
passing interest in financial affairs, and the decline
in value of Government bonds would always excite
her ; hut, when she was reminded that the fiuetua-
tions of securities could be of no interest to her, she
would reply, **No; but that i«he srmpathized with
the holders of them." Mrs. Clift now believes that
some Government bonds will be found among the de-
ceased woman's effects.
Mrs. Hobson, of No. 34 Jefforson-street. told a
T111S8 reporter yesterday that she had known Mrs.
Allen for the pa?t 20 years, but the latter was very
eccentric a»d so reticent about herself and. her
affairs tiiat while Mrs. Hobson knew tbat'^ she
had a little money, she had never known until her
death how maeh slie had. and knew nothing of her
past history, beyond the fact tbat she had once been
married, and that her husband was dead. Mrs- Allen
had been lo the hibit of dining on Sundays with the
Hobson tamiiy with great regularity, and dined
there last Sunday, aa usuaL When she left the
family, she told them that they need not expect to
see her during the present week, as &(3e was " going
to visit friends in BroiS^yn." Mrs. CUfc and St.
Paul's Eniacopal Church appear to have been the
only parnes who were imposed upon by Mrs. Allen,
as other persons with whom she associated knew
that she had sufficient property to maintain herself
comfortably.
BOLI> BXTBGLABS CAFTUSEB,
Shortly after S o'clock last evening, as Capt,
Bymea, of the Fifteenth Precinct, ^as standing at
the eomer of Broadway, and Fourth-street with De-
tective Slevh), of his command, a lad informed him
that four suspicious looking men were engaged in
removing three large trunks and a valise from the
house No. 9 West Third-itrcet, occupied by J. L.
Sandford, an actor, and were loading them on a
wagon. The Captain and Slevin hastened
to thb house, but the men and wagon had disap-
peared when they arrived there. .The ladwhohiut
followed them then said that while pasung he had
overheard one of tne men say to a companion, " Bay-
ard-atreet,nearMott," or "Moct-street, near Bayard,"
he was not sure which. A coupd was procured, and
the Captain, with iSlevin and Patrolman CHlgar, were
driven rapidly down Broadway to Canal-stoeet, and
through Canal-street to Mott. As they ttimed
into Mott-street, Slevin. who was on the
box, descried a wagou with four mea
in it at the comer of Bayar^street. The offi-
cers left the coups, and surrounding the, wagon c«p-
tured three of the men, bnt the fourth jumped to the
pavement and espaped. In the wagon were found
the three trunks and the valise spoken of bv the boy
who had given the information to the Police. The
prisoners, and the wagon containing the property,
vera taken to the Mercer-Street Police Stauoit. The
men gave their names as John A len, Louis Ferlato,
and Daniel Voulle* Allen was recognized as
"Scotch Jock," a weU-known bftrs^. The
Sronerty was found to belong to Ur-
, Jj. Sandford and Miss Nellie Sandford, and ccdi-
taiaed their entTre tfaeatrlcal wardrobe^ valued at
over 92,000: The pnsoners had forced even the

the yuuQgest babv into a qniet slate, went dowa to
the pier to have a last, chat with Dan, who, by the
way, is the image at bis pletnra in the Inaoetntt
Abroad, They were at once surtounded by an army
of press representativeii. one of wbom went ao far
as to nsk "rwain, "Are yon going to Europe?" a
thing that in the most matter-of-fact newspaper
might safely have been taken tor granted under the
circumstances. Soqebody spoke ot tha qnantlties
ot flowers the passengers bad taken into the saloon.'
"Yes.'* said Mark.'**it'8 all nonsense; they mn it
into tbe sroond. I was ta^idng with ^me <a my re-
lations aboat it tbe other day. and told them what -I
thought abbot it, paTtienlarly at funerals. They said
tW had Intended to give me a good send-oS when I
died; bnt if I didn't like flowers the.v wouldn't send
any. I told^them that was all right, Td- rather have
ice anyhow."
Oar new Minister appeared noon deck again. He
walked to tbe stem and looked anxiously up the
street. There was nobody in sight but an old lady
selling beaded pin-coshions, and. a pea-nntman. It
was not cither of these that tbe new Minister wished
to see. He kept up his anxious look while Mark
Twain, stiU standing upon tbe wharf, told how
a'l the ooeaa st;am«rs feed their pawengera w^
except one line tnat he nstned. which he said still
sives its passengers tbe same fare it did 30 yeara
ago, invariably nvlag them boiled rice and stewed
iirunes every Thnnday for tha benefit ot thaii
health.
The steamer had been waiting for tha maQ wagon ;
and at laat the wagon drove np. The ahipwoald
sail In a quarter of aa boar. The Minister Icept np
his anxious look over the stem-post. At last a
c»ap^, drawn by a lame horse, came in slzht. The
j^inister knew the limp of that lama horse, and a
look of loy overspread hts fare. He rashed to tha-
gan^-plsnk. The lanie horse piaaced furiously np ob-
three legs. A g' ntleman alighted. He sprang np
the gangway- He grasped tbe new Minister.

When he retnzned honia his father aiada.aa aifoit to
chastise the child, bnt was prevented br Iba. B^efit-
ensteia. A quarrel theiaopon easoed betwaan tbe
husband knd wife, and BrelteBBteltt spoka very
harshly to Ilia wife. The woman became t«^ isial-
aneholy In consequence, and on Tuesday tha told her
cousin, Una Mayer, that she was tired of tlving,'4rat
no particular attention was paid to tliis ramark, aait
was not supposed that the woman would attempt
to deetny herself. On Wednesday, during the
absence of her hnaband, who had gene to a
neighboring barber-shop, Mn. Braitanstein reeelved
a visit from her brother, Onstave Sohlemm,who took
breakfast with her. In the preteaee ot her brother
the woman went to a eloset in the dining-room aad
emptied a white powder into a gbua, which aha after-
ward partially flQed with water. She athrnd the
contents of the glass quickly, and swallowed them in
one dtaaghb In a tew moments she eomplsined of
teeUng ill and laid down on tbe bed, and, when her
brother asked her what she had taken and
ahe' said it waa medicine, Schlemm sug-
gested the calling in of a pbyalctan, but
his sister obleeted. Schlemm then went
for the husband, and on his arrival Dr. Stntrer was
summoned, but the woman was beyond homsn aid.
Before slie became uncoaselona she informed her
brother that she had taken po son with suicidal in-
tent, as she was tired ot life, and begged him to so
inform their parents, and also to Imk after her
children. I>r. Cnshman, who mada tha postmortem
examination, found that death had resnlted ftom
arsenic and a verdict to that effect was rendered.

Precinct Police a year ago, on a charge of
intoxication. Ever since that time he has led a
shiftless and intemperate life. He has lived in hIa
mother's house, and his wife has taken In -washing
for a living. She has been compelled by her hiuband
to divide her hard-earned money with him. On
Wednesday nieht Glass qaarrded -with his -wife and
beat her savagely, blacking her eye and producing
with his fist a ghastly wound on her neck, behind ber
left ear. He also gathered up all of her clothes that
he could find, put them into the stove, and burned
them. Officer McCormiek a^n arrested (Tlass, and

"Washington, April 12.— Ex-Door-keeper
Polk seems determined to relieve himself as far
n possible from the charge of tnismanaging the
alBea from which he was lately discharged, and
tODlace the blame upon those Demoeratic mem-
bers for whom he acted, and whom he charges
V th being responsible for his troubles. He re-
eently pnblished a card in which he said it he
■waa not able to beep the soldiers' roll foil, it
was the fault of the members to whom those
places had been assigned in not famishing the
men. He says Carter Harrison was offered
the appointment of a messenger on the soldier's
roll. \mt refused to have a soldier, and that sev-
eral other Demoeratie members also refosed to
take places on tbat roll. Of the appointment
secured by Mr. Potter, of New-York, Polk says:
"ClarksonN. Porter drew a soldier in the dis-
tribution of the Door-keeper patronage to the
State of New-York, and he presented the name
of an able-bodied editor from his district, wh»
had none of the appearance of a disabled
soldier, and who admitted to me he
bad never been a soldier. This man
remained on the floor about a month.
In everybody'a way, doing nothing but impor-
tuning me to place him on the soldiers' roll, and
when that failed, to promise him I would not
oppose his being paid by resolution, if Mr. Pot-
ter should offer one to compensate him for his
loss of time in coming to Washington to hunt a
place under the Doorkeeper. The resolution
was offered by Hiester Clymer to pay this man
$159, which he informed me was done at the
written request of Mr. Potter. I did oppose the
payment of $159 to Mr. B. I. Eorton for doing
no service whatever, and there and then I made
an enemy who refused tg speak to me or five me
the slightest recognition from that time forward,
and this enemy signed the majority report
against me without being present at the exami-
nation of my case, except for a few minutes on
the third and last day of the Investigation.
This accounts for the milk in Mr. Potter's cocoa-
nut. " Some of Mr. Potter's friends took the
trouble to deny the above statement of Polk,
and to-day the ex-Door-keeper returns to the
charge, and defies Potter and Harrison to deny
it. In order to refresh Mr. Potter's memory,
Polk reininds him that he took his able-bodied
editor, Horton, to the office of the Door-keeper,
where Horton was sworn in without the ap-
proval or presence of Folk, and contrary to
law. It is evident that Mr. Polk is possessed
of secrets whose divnlgenee will not be relished
by some Democratic members of the House.

Washington, April 12.— A lively and in-
teresting debate occurred to-day in the House
over the bill to appropriate $65,000 to William
and Mary College of Virginia, for the destmo-
tiMi of the college buildings during . the re-
bellion. 'Mr. Goode, of Virginia, opened the
debate in an able speech of one hour's duration,
and was followed by Dr. Loiing, of Massachu-
setts. This was Dr. Loring's maiden effort in
the House, and it has placed him in the front
rank of Congressional orators. This speech
is pronounced one of the most fin-
ished, scholariy. and eloquent efforts ever
heard in Congress. Dr. Ijoring sooke
for over one hour, and was listened to with nn-
nsual attention by members on both sides. He
did notalvocate the measure asa war claim, and
anticipated the arguments of thofe who would
oppose it on legal or technical grounds, or from
a sense of justice, economy, or retribution. He
appealed to Congress, in riew of the associa-
tions ftnd traditions of the past, and in view of
the great work performed by this college in the
cause of civil liberty and popular education, to
extend that measure of assistancewhiehwiU en-
able it to rise from its ashes and continue the
work in which it has been engaged for two cen-
turies. Upon the conclusion of his remarks Dr.
Xioring was warmly applauded, and received the
congratulations of members on both sides of the
House.
Mr. Beed, of Midne, followed Dr. Loring In
opposition to the appropriatiou, claiming that
It would establish a precedent for the payment
of other war claims. He read a number of bills
introduced in the House, aggregating several
hundred thousand dollars, in which payment
was asked by educational, charitable, and reli-
gions institutions for damages sustained during
the rebellion, every one of which he claimed has
as good a right to be reimbnraed as William and
Mary. 'To pay this claim would reverse the-
practice of nations in dealing with damages
mstained in war, and would open a pathway
for innumerable daimsof like character that
would bankrupt the Treasnry. He referred to
the large increase of bills introduced for war
claims, and said that pubUe' sentiment at the
South has been educated not only to justify
these demands upon the Treasnry, but to Insist
upon their being urged to payment by their rep-
resentatives.
air. Townsend, of New-York, made a humor^
ODS and sareastia speech, in which he assailed
'tmiiam and Mary College as a nursery of those
heresiea that ended in seeession and rebellion.
The college had great tradltiona, but had not
proved true to them; and for the past 30 rears
had taught the Hotspurs of the South to forget
thetea^ings and examples of the Illustrious
nan who had gone from her halls, and now she
oomw to Congress cringing and begging for a«-
■latanoe from the men whose sons were laid In
^ogntnary graves bocanae she had departed
from the traditions of the fathers. This college
had taught treason and rebellion to her sons of
latar days, and should now take the eonM-
.^oenees of those teachings. Mr. To#nsand waa
also severe upon Virginia, and told some plain
truth In language all the more forcible beeansa
of itablnotnaas. Ha charged Virginians with
■b^agtoaeeifd and UUberal, and referred to
ttafaettkat tat one vote was given by that
State to «he appropriation for the eelebratlon
of our national CentennlaJ, and that vote was
eaat by a eaxpet-bagger whom the Virginia
g^r^aa a«eeted to deqiiae because he
,^gntt*d to A^riinla from Vermont He

Towniend eontlnaed his remarks in this strain,
oeeaslonaDy making fanmbroas illustrations and
Indieions comparisons, which served to soften
the bitterness of his attacks. The debate will
be continued on the bill next Friday, when
Conger will follow up the attack of to-day on
the bin, and Bandolph Tucker will reply for
William and Mary. It Is probable th^ dis-
cussion win take a partisan turn, and tbat It
will result in a bitter controversy over South-
ern claims in generaL

Washington, April 12.- The Gomld-
Huntington party are not likely to receive any
encouragement from the House Committee on
the Judiciary in their efforts to defeat the Pa-
cific Bailroad Sinking Fund bill. -That commit-
tee to-day. although the bill is not before them
in any shape, considered It informally, and
agreed that while, lit the opinion ot the com-
mittee, the Senate bin, if referred at all, should
of right go to them, they win not ask to have It
taken foam the Speaker's table and referred.
This may be regarded as an expression of the
committee in favor of the bill, and furnishes
another indication that suiBeient strength wiU
be found on Monday in the House to pass the
bill under a suspension of the roles.
To-day, in conversation with an intimate
friend, the President stated that he bad no in-
tention of rescinding hiscivil serrice order. He
said, further, in relation to the action of the re-
cent joint caucus, that If any joint committee of
Congressmen, representing that meeting, should
call upon him regarding the matter, he would
refer tbem, for an explanation of his postUdb,
to the letter defining the order which was writ-
ten by the Attomey-Oeneral to the Collector of
Boston in October last.
Thus far the investigation being made by the
House Committee on Post Offices into alleged
fraudulent pnutices in connection with the
letting ot Arkansas mail routes has developed
nothing whatever to show tbat Senator Dorsey
was improperly connected with thostf lettings.
as was intimated in recent dispatches from
this city. Thus far it has not been
made to appear that anything criminal
occurred in connection with any of the recent
mail lettings, or that the Government will be
made to suffer any loss by the *'-lf«Ti^^ let-
tings. It has been shown that Senator Dorsey
simply did tor his personal friends who were
bidders what is customary for men\bers of Con-
gress to do in such cases, and that those routes
that were awarded to his friends were so
awarded because they were the lowest bidders,
and entered good and sufficient security to can^
out their contracts.

REPOBT.OP THE MSPECTOBS' INVESTIGATION
— PBOSECUTION OF LUNT AND THE KEW-
BUETPOBT BHIP-CABPENTEB BECOM-
MENDED.
Wasbihgton, April 12.— Mr. Hawley, actinic
Secretary of the Treasury, to-day, sent ta the sub-
committee ot the House Committee on Commeree
copies of the evidence taken by the Uuted States In-
spectors at Philapelphla in their investigation
ot the Metropolis disaster, and their report
thereon. The report attributes the ^saster to the
rotten condition of the ship's how and stem, and the
unequal distribution ot the railroad iron cugo. Ex.
tensive repairs had been made, but in afih a manner
as to deceive both the insurance and United States
inspectors, but without real benefit to the ship.
They sum up under four heads as follows :
First— ThM they believe Mr. Luat. the superin-
tending owner, wss cognizant of imperfections in
the hull ot the steamer, and. therefore, liable to the
provisions of the 4.493d section of the Revised
Statutes.
Seeojid — ^Tbst Eben Manson, ship-builder, at New.
buryport. Mass.. was accessory to snch knowledge,
and deserves criminal prosecution tor wlthboldine it
from the proper authorities until 90 human lives had
been sacrificed.
Tkird — ^They suggest to the Snpervlstng Inspector
ot the Distrint an examination into the conauet ot
Assistant Inspector Craft in changing the character
ot the steamer under the circumstances noted from
the report to the Secretary of the Treasury, under
the provisions of section 4,407 ot the Revised Stav
utea
Fourth — They believe the Captain was in igno-
rance ot the imperiect condition of the ship when he
left Philadelphia, and that from the time she besan
leaking until she was on the beach his conduct was
tbat of a cool and skillful seaman. The total nnm?
her of lives lost was 90 — passengers 76, and crew 14.

at the Department of State to-dsy to thank the See-
retary tor his attentions and to bid him farewell.
'He subsequently ealled upon the President and in an
Informal manner took leave of him. He will forth-
with leave the United States for his home. Mr.
Mamea, on being asked by Assistant Secretary
Seward whether there was any truth in the report that
England bad seized Samoa, said he could not believe
there was, as eireumstanees and his latest informa-
tion were a^nst snch a conclusion. The report, he
said, might have risen from the fact that Sir .Aribnr
Gordon, the Governor of Fiji, recently went to the
Samoan Islands for the purpose only of establishing
a consular eourt. such as we have in foreign countries.

joining tha Brooklyn Navy-ysrd, at Wallabont Bay,
in the City of Brooklyn, to that city tor market pur.
poses, have agreed upon a report and have sent it to
the Secretary of the Navy, who will submit it at an
early day to Congress. Oommodore B. W- Shnfeldt
and Hon. J. W. Coe, a majority of the commission,
sign the report, which prorides that $2,000
per lot shaU he paid for the water-
front lots, and $1,000 ser lot tor
the balance, making In the aggregate about $539,*
000, but with the soBxeation tbat Congress shall de-
cide whether the lanaformerly used as a street, and
which will again tie used for the same purpaseequally
by th^ United States and the Cityot Brooklyn, it
the sale Is 'consummated, should not be left
out of the calcniation as to the number

Hon. John W. Hunter, the other Commissioner, Joins
in the report, but thinks tbat no more than $1,000

miastoners, snd Brooklyn win have the opportunity
tbrongh its aetion of obtaining a site for a public

St. Peteesbubo, April 12.— The Agmee
RvSM says the Russian Government, hy dis-
cussing in Its answer to Lord Salisbilry
the objections raised by him on every
point of the treaty, has practically
estahllshed discussion of the whole treaty, and
thus shown how small s foundation the British
objections had. If the congress meets, there will
be no obje<nion to full discussion, but the sub-
mission of the treaty implies an act which
no independent power— England least of sU —
wonldadmit. The Agence adds : •' Direct and
amicable pourparlers continue, whioh, thanks to
the good oiBces of Germany, it' may be hoped
will lead to a satisfactory result."
LoNDcar, April 12. — The tone ot the com-
ments on the political crisis is much more hope-
ful from all directions than yesterday. The
whole basis for this change seems to be
a conriction that Russia is preparing to
accept Germany's help to get out of the pres-
ent dead-lock by such concessions as jriU
secure a meeting of the congress- Prince Gort-
sehakoiTs reply to Lord Salisbury's circular
and the circular to whioh it was annexed
were only published in St. Petersburg on
Thursday, which strengthens - the belief
that the former was telegraphed hither
on Tuesday night for a special pur-
pose. The circular when issued here Thurs-
day afternoon had a depressin g influe nee on the
Stock Exchange in consequenee of the relterv
tion of the refusal to submit the Treaty
of San Stefano to the congress. Bus-
sian stocks declined over 2 per cent.
To.dav, however, it. is pointed out that, al-
though the circular offers no concession on the
point at issue, it is couched in such considerate
and moderate langnatre as to leave the
door open for England to make some
reply to the invitation for further explanations,
and thereby furnish a basis for a common un-
derstanding. At Vienna Prince GortschakolTs
replj crested an impression of Russia's
wiumgness to find an acceptable method for
reopening negotiations. This moderate spirit
is believed to be, in a great meastire,
due to the altered tone of the com-
ments of the German, French, and
Italian press and politicians concerning the
Troatv of San Stefano, which point to the prob-
ability of Russia Instead of England being iso-
lated in case ot a rupture. The Vienna Cabinet,
which stiU firmly adheres to the idea
of the congress as the only possible solution, is,
of course, greatly pleased at the improved
aspect of affairs, "rhe German semi-efficial
newspapers yesterday evening were not san-
guine that either London or St. Petersburg
wiU make the concessions necessary to secure
an agreement, but all information agrees tbat
the German Government continues its endeav-
ors to bring about an agreement, which it is not
likely to do after the case is hopeless. The im-
proved feeling has, therefore, substantial jus-
tification.
A dispatch from St. Petersburg says the
Journal de St. Petersburg, reriewing the opin-
ions of the foreign press upon Prince
Gortschakoff's reply, concludes as fol-
ows : " The reiU desire of Russia to
bring about a peaceful solution of the
existing difficulties meets with universal recog-
nition. The British Government must now
abandon its purely negative attitude, either
by inviting the powers to assemble for
common negotiations, or by proposing
solutions which the British Cabinet might wish
to substitute for the Treaty of San Stefano.
Should the powers find a compromise
Russia would wiUingly partieipate in a
discussion and modify the treaty. Such solu-
tion should not, however, nulli^ the resiilts
gained by Russian blood, but take.into account
her sacrifices."
A Renter telegram from St. Petersburg says
the summary which wss published by the Lon-
don Central Press yesterday of the circular ac-
companying Prince Gortschakoff's reply to Lord
Salisbury is apocryphal.
London, April 13.— The TTimcs" Vienna dis-
patch says the report that Prince Bismarck con-
sidered a preliminary conference of Ambassa-
dors at Berlin possible this week was premature,
to say the least. ^ ^

OP.
London, April 12. — ^There seems to be
some disposition at . St. Petersburg to show
Roumania more consideration. It is now an-
noun<^ thence that Prince Gortschakoff meant
that the stipulation for the passage of Russian
troops through Roumania, not the question of
the cession of Bessarabia, oould not be
submitted to the Congress. It Is also stated that
the Russian Commissioner wiU go to Bucharest
to treat with the Government .concerning the
passage of troops. M. Stevtcha MUuulovitch,
the Servian Minister-President, has resigned;
In consequence of the vadllamiK policy
of the Servian Government. It is saia that
Anglo-Austrian influences are now in the a».
eendant at Belgrade, and that there is a dispo-
sition on the part of Servia, Roumania, and
Montenegro to make a jointremonstranceto the
powers uainsttbe treaty of San Stefano.
The Vienna Politifdl .Correspondence states
that the Rnsrian representative at Bucharest is
nOw urging tiie conclusion of a convention se-
curing the right of passage through Roumania
to Russian troops.
Renter's Bnenarest dispatch says Mr. Stourdzs
has given notice that he wiU ksk tbe Govern-
ment, in the Senate, whether the negotiations
for the passage of the Russian troops are in
consequence of the Government's having noti-
fied Russia of her willingness to permit such
pasea^ if a direct understanding was eon-
eltided. Notice haa been given of an
interpellation In the (Camber of Depntlee.
as to the advisability of withdrawing the Army
to t^e Carpsthlaa Mouatuna in view ot the
Bnsaiui oeouoatibn,- and whether the Govern-
ment means to protest to the powers against
the recent large entriea of Russian troops Into

expresses determination to carry out loy-

THE FALL RIVER DEFALCATION.
FURTHER developments IN THE CHACE
ROBBERT — HOW HE CONTBOLLFD THE
MILL— OVER HALF A MILLION STOLEN.
Fall Rivbb, Mass., April 12. — Some further
developments have been msde in the Chaee defalca.
tion, showing that the control of the miU was in
the hands ot Chsce and his Immediate tamUy
Chaee having 41 shares in his own name,
and controlling others, the Directors being compara-
tively small stockholder*. The scheme ot building
thenewmiU was pushed throngh by him sgalnst
the wishes of the more conservative Directors.
They were outvoted, aud throngh bis desperate
efforta he was able to float hia debta in the market,
where the Directors were hut Httle acquainted.
It ia stated that his wife knew nothing
of his embezzlement, and that aU of her
private property wUl be swept away by
the conduct other husband. He also indneedhis
brother.itt-law, H. B. Dnrfee, Treasurer ot the FaU
Biver Manufacturing Company, to allow him to
draw agaiuat $10,000 worth ot goods sold by
the corporation, ot which Durf ee is Treasurer, and
the latter is plaeed in the poaidon of
a detanlter unless the amount is restored. Mr. Dor-
fee haa been invited to resign his position. Chaee
haa remained at home, suffering from intense nerv-
ous prostration, and declines to mAe any statement.
It is said that he spent $150,000 in paying tbe
debts of the ettate ot the late Dr. Nathan i>nriee, of
which be was one of the Execntors, but nothing ia
known oa to where the balance of the money went.
The Directors propose to sift the matter
to the bottom. The amount of the defalcation
up to this time is $519,000, and wiU
probably be larger. The banks are not the
only creditor^ of the Union Mill Company, Kilbum,
Lincoln & Co., being creditors for about $50,000
for looms, and Messrs. Whittln for $100,.
000 for carding machinery. Various expedi-
ents have been suggested for a settlement with
the creditors. One- ia ^hat the mill companr shaU
make an assignment of Its property and the Direc-
tors of all their individual property to Trustees,
who ShaU hold for ^the oenefit of the cred-
itors, and attempt the experiment of working out
the loss, the erediton, of course, to grant an exten-
sion running over several years. Another Is that
the mill shall offer a dividend to the eredimrs. and a
new eompany be formed, under the present corporate
name, to carry on the business. But some ot the
stockholders feel that notiiing should be done
until a full and complete discovery Is made of all the
tacts. Henry Fearce, ot Proridence, who at-
tached the mill, consented to-day to allow the
min to run, but after to-morrow he wiU ' shut
down indefinitely. It is not likelr that
Chaee wiU be plaeed under arrest until the

in this State, tor the murder ot Serena Tcompaon,
Ma 8tep.daughter, in August last. It is tbe current
beUetthat criminal intimacy existed between the
parties tor seve^ yesrs, and that jealousy on the

Thompson was sitting near her fireplace, when a
gun vras pointed throngh a ereviee in tbe ehimney
and fired, causing her instant death. Shallington
lied, and was not arrested tlU October. He vras
known to be a man of riolence, and

made repeated eitorta to break Jail, with-
out snecess. At one time he fired tbe jail, and
would have been burned to death bnt for timely aid
brought by those who diseovered the Hght, A few
days ago he sent tot a pbysieian and Inquired it he
could prevent the breakiag ot his neck by shrugging
his shoulders aud drawing down his head. Tbe phy-
sieian informed him that death by straagnlatlon
would reanlt from auoh an attempt to save hia life.
This inquiry was made with the hope that he might
be cut down before life was absolutely extinct.

haps, upon Mr.Wardthanonauyotherone individual,
and his business extended throui^ont the Mahoning

two years ago, tbe firm made an assignment, and it
was thought that nearly aU the debts would be can-
celed ;bntthlngs have constantly gone down since then
and now thla petition ahowa that all the aaaets, ex-
cept a very small amount ot personal property, have
been absorbed, and liabilities to tbe amotmt of
$1,606,000 still remain, from which release is
prayed. Should the petition be granted, Mr. Ward
will probably resume business, and hia much-needed

William M. Tweed is dead. The m&i
who. from belnis an aipprentioe in his £ather'£
chair factory, worked his way into Congress,
held many of the most profit&ble offices the
City of New-York had to bestow, ruled Tam-
many 'EaXl, and for a time exercised greater
power over City afEairs than any other man has
ever done, died in a room In Lndlow-Street
Jail yesterday at noon. In the absence of nearly
all the members of his family, surrounded by
comparatiTestrangrers, and without any religions
observances, he died, expressing the belief that
the Guardian Angels would watch over him.
The Coroner's inquest showed that he had long
suffered from a complication of diseases that
must have been far more painful to him than
any physical tortures the State could inflict.

CONFIDEKCE OF HUNTER'S FRIEKDS IN HIS
INNOCENCE SOMEWHAT SHAKEN — THE
STORY OF THE MAN EPP.
Special VisDoteh to the Keto-Tori TivuM,
Philadelphia. April 13.— The Hunter case
is now annmiiie each a shape that many of the
nrisoner's frieods, who have rrifased to entertain tbe
belief that he was gmltvof the mnrder of John H.
Armstrong, are havlne their confidence shaken.
Their hope of his vindieatlnc himself of the
crime lay to a great extent in the evidence of Peter
£pT), who states tbat Hunter was at his place, cor-
ner of Bonvier and Oxford streets, in the north-east-
em part of Philadelphia, at the very time the mur-
der took place. Yesterday Epp a^rain refreshed his
memory, and stated to the Camden ancfaorities
that the occasion of the visit of Hanger
was not on that particular evening, but tbe
nl^ht previous. -The chance in Epps testimony
has evidently been brought about; by the fact
tbat his evidence as to the ahbi stood unsupported.
His own workmen said that Mb place of business
was closed on tbe night of the crime at 5 o'clock,
instead of 6, as be alleged, and it was also kaown
that at tbe time Eop alleges Hauter was with hha
the latter was at Upeiisky's, in tht* soathem part of

EDcLDter called on Epp tbe morning after the murder
and induced him to accompany him to Armstrone's
house, which he did, where Hunter introduced him
and said : ** This is my friend. Mr. Epp. I was at
bis honse last ni^t, wasn't I Mr. £pp V To this the
latter replied, "Yes." It has also been developed
that &raham was to murder Philip Armstrong, the
brother of the murdered man, because he knew so

was arrested at Montreal last Wednesday, arrived
here this morning in the custody of detectives. He
was tracked to tbe St. Lawrence House, where he
was registered as "W. C. Thomas, Cleveland," and
was found in a eencrally broken down state. When
the detectives confronted him he surrendered at
once, admitted his guilt, , and agreed to accompany
them to Detroit without compelling them to take
steps under the extradition treaty.- He kept
hia promise in this respect fully, aud
came on from Montreal without the slightest
effort to escape. He reached here haggard
aud nervous, aud waa taken to Police head-quarters
where a great crowd soon gathered. No one was
admitted to see him except his immediate friends
and the ofBcers of the bank. To the latter he made
a full confession of his transactions. He did not at-
tempt to excuse himself, and invited pnnishment for
his offense. His defalcation - amounts to over
915,000, bat much of it antedates his flight, and

TWEED'S ILLNESS AND LAST HOtTRS.
William M. Tweed died in the room in
which he had been confined, in tbe Lodlow;-
Street Jail, at 12 o'clock noon yesterday. Al-
though ho bad not been well for a lon£ time
previously, yet an immediate fatal en'iin^ was
not anticipated, and the annotmoement of bit
death was a surprise to every one. Dcring the
last few .months several physicians prescribed
for him. Dr. Scbirmer giving place to Dr. J. M.
Carnocban only a few days ago. A vreek atrc
last Thursday Mr. Tweed complained that he
was feeling worse than usual, and desired that
Dr. Carnochaa might be sent for. That physi-
cian was summoned, and he found tbe patieac
suftering from a complication of daneerous <iia-
orders. He had taken a severe cold, which
ended in an attack of bronchitis, and that was
followed by pneumonia. Besides these he wae
suffering from cystitis, and his old heart trouble
gave him much pain. His pulse became
very irregular, and there were marked signs
of i>ericarditi6. 7tw trouble with the heart
grew worse «very day until Thursday, woea
there was a slight improvement, and toward
evening he seemed much better. At 1 1 o'clock
on Thursday evening, when Dr. Camochan Left
him, be was breathing eiLSily, seemed disponed
to sleep, and said thai he felt izuch mere com-
fortable. At tbe same time, however, thero
were symptoms indicating tbat the heart trouble
was worse. Dr. Camochan gave him an ano-
dyne to induce sleep, and the patient slept lor
an hour. At midnight he awoke, complaining
verv much of an acute pain about the heart.
His colored servant, Luke, did all he could to
soothe him, but he contin-aed restless ihrou£;h-
ont the night, insisting upon sitliog iu bis
c:.alr. The chanze of position seemed to re-
lieve the pain, and he alternated several times
during the night between the bed and tbe easy
chair. The pain in tbe region o£ the heart
grew worse until about 7 o'clock yesterday
morning, when he felt better aeain, and fell
into a comfortable sleep, which lasted for 'half
an hour. At the end o£ that time, however, bo
azain awt}ke, compiaioing of grezit pain about
tbe heart. His pulse was then very feeble and
irregular.
■When these serious symptoms appeared Dr.
Camochan was sent for, and he arrived at the
jail at about 8 o'clock. He found Mr. Tweed's
countenance changed, and his symptoms greatly
aggravated. His friends were sent for, ai d
from that time "until his death he sank grz^d-
ually, retaining full oonsciousnef>s until half an
hour before he died. Sir. Tweed's counsel, Mr.
Edelstein, arrived promptly in resDouse to a
dispatch annouucicg that his clleni was dring.
and he was soon joined in the sick room by .Mr.
and Mrs. Douglass, Mr. Tweed's dauchter and
son-in-law, and Foster Dewey; and Charles
Devlin, his bondsman and old-time friend, ar-
rived two minutes too late. He knew that he
was going to die, but did not seem discomposed,
except by tbe terrible pain he was enduring.
Frequently he pressed his hands to his heart,
saying, " Ob. it is terrible, terrible !'' and " 1 am
very bad; my heart is paining me terribly."
Dr. Camochan saw that no aid could be given, a
aud no more remedies were administered.
At about 11:30 o'clock it was evident that
the end was drawing near. Mr. Tweed beck-
oned Dr. Camochan to his side, and said, in an '
unusually weak voice:' " I have teied to do somn
good if I have not had good lock. I am not
afraid to die. I believe the guardian angels
will protect me.". Dr. Camochan was so much
impressed by the words that he immediately
wrote tbem upon a piece of paper and read them
to the other persons in the room. Immediatelv
after saying these few words Mr. Tweed fell
into a sort of stupor, laying his bead back upon
bis pillow. In a few moments, however, he par-
tially aroused himself, aud said to his lawyer.
Mr. Edelstein. some incoherent words about
the confiDementr affecting his health, and, men-
tioning some names in an almost inaudible
voice, said: "They will be satisfied now." Alter
this he again lapsed into a stupor, which the
physicians say was not a comatjose condition,
but merely a deadening of tbe sei^ses. Ac a
minute or two before 12 o'clock he moved bis
hand upon the countetpane, as if searching for
some one's hand for a farewell. A moment
later, just as tbe jail bells were ringing the
noon signal, William M. Tweed fell back upon
his pillow dead.
The room in which Mr. Tw«ed died, and in
which he spent the ast year of his life, was
handsomely but quietly furnished. In bis last
hours he lay upon a plain but oomforcable bed,
on which his oody remained for some, hours
after death, clad in a plain white nightdress.
He had not altered materially. Tberts was
scarcely a change in tbe face except in . be color
of the hair and whiskers, which had whitened
very much. Tbe great size of bis body had
rather increased thui diminished.
A message was at once sent to the Sherifa
otSce, saying that William M. Tweod was dead,
^ord was also sent to the Coroner's office, tbe
law requiring that an inquest shall be held over
the bodies of all {Arsons who die while linder-
goingimprisonment. The corridor of the jail
was soon ■ ^led 'with friends of Mr. Tweed and
representatives of the press, and tbe front doot
was besieged by persons who could not gain ad-
mittance to the building. No one was admitted
to the room in the first story, opening dS the
quadrangle, in which the body lay. except offi-
cers of the jail, relatives and. friends, and tbe
Coroner and his men.
Mr. John D. Townsend reached the jail at
about 1:30 o'clock, and was present at the in-
quest. He said that Mr. 'Tweed said to Mr.
Edelstein a' few minutes before the former's
death, "TUden andFaircbild — I guess tbfyVe
killed me at last. I have tried U> do the best I
could latterly, but they wouldn* lot me. They
will probably be satisfied when I am carried out
of here to-morrow." Deputy Warden Fitzstm-
mons says that on Thursday afternoon be
showed Mr. Tweed a note he bad written in re-
ply to a letter ot inquiry about' bis health from
a reporter. Mr. Tweed read it and said that it
was all right, bnt added, "Say 1 am more com~
fortable to-day."
The news of Mr. Tweed's death spread wiAi
great rapidity thronghont the City. Before he
had been dead half aa hour a bulletin in front
of The Toies ofl&oe announced the fact, and it
was surrounded by crowds all the aftemoon,
everybody taking almost a pereonal intezeot ia
the death of tbe ex-" Boss."
Mr. Tweed's laet appearanee ontdde the mlli

Be taatifled: "I reride at No. 14 East Six-

whleh he has been under niT- pTofeeatonal
eare at times; I waa called to see the de-
ceased on ^prll 3 at the Lndlow-Street
Jail; I found him snfferine ftom acuta

and Keneral symwtema of a cold. In k day or
two the cystitis waa nlieved, while thebten-
chitla became worse, attended with ezpeetora-
tion and. cougb. The brtmeblkl titmble yldded
to treatment, bgt doable paeWnehia apptAlred.
On Sunday last, acuta oerteardina, and
Its attendant symptoms ot pain in the
heart and irresnlarity df ptilaa, set In. This
continued and Mcame the main subject ef at-
tention and treatment. On Tnesday last, signs
o{ effusion Ihto the tMrtcaidinm set in, the
pulse became more irrepnlar, and considerable
pain was felt in the region Of the heart These
symptoms continued to Inereass till ll o'clock
Ufisl night, "when, under the Influence of
an anodyne, he became easiar, and expressed
himself as being more comfortable. He soon
after fell asleep, and awoke complaining of in-
creased pain about the heart. Between that
nonr and 7 o'clock A. H. he waa Tei7 restless,
and sat up, stating that he got relief from his
change of position. I sent word at that time
that the anodyne (chloral) be repeated. He
slept for abont one hour. At 8 o'uook I saw
him, and found the signs of effusion had In-
creaked. The pulse could scarcely be counted.
His countenance bad changed, and respiration
bad become more labored. From this time for-
ward the symptoms became more alarming. He
sank and died at 12 o'clock noon. Death, in
my opinion, was caused by pericarditis, with
effusion and heart dot, complicated with bron-
cbitis. pneumonia, and chronic congration of
the kidneys."
Bernard Fitzslmmons. Depntj^ 'Warden of
liUdlow-Street Jail, testified : " I reaide at Lnd-
low-Street Jail, where I am Deputy Warden ;
Mr. William M. Tweed, the deceased, was ad-
mitted to Ludlow-Street JaU on June 22, 1875,
and was readmitted Nor. 23, 1876; for the
past six months the deceased has been ailing,
and was under the care of a physician ; Dr.
Schlrmer and other physicians attended him.
Dr. Camocfaan being the last physician in at-
tendance ; Ur. Tweed died at 12 o'clock noon
this day, April 12, 1878."
Deputy CoronM: Cashraaa testified : " I
have made an external examination of the
body of William M. Tweed, In the Lndlow-
Street Jail, April 12, 1878 ; from the evidence
and history of the case, I am of the opinion
that the said Willlsm M. Tweed died from
acute pericarditis, complicated witn pneumonia
and disease of the kidneys."
The following verdict was then rendered by
the Coroner's jury: " An inquisition taken at
the Lndlow-Street Jail, New-York, on the 13th
day of April, 1878, before Henry Woltman,
Coroner : William ii. Tweed, now l^ng dead at
the Ludlow-Street Jail, upon the oath and
affirmation of six good and lawful men of the
State of New-Tork, duly chosen and sworn and
charged to inquire, in behalf of said people,
bow and in what manner the said William H.
Tweed came to his death, do, upon their oaths,
say that the said William M. Tweed came to his
death by pericarditis, complicated with pneumo-
nia and disease of the kidneys."
' As soon as the Coroner's inquest had been
concluded, the body was put into the bands of
undertaker A. J. Case, of No. 397 Orand-atreet,
and at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon it was
taken to the residence of Mr. Tweed's son-in-

TWEED'S EARLY POLITICAL LIFE.
"William Maroy Tweed was bom at No. 9

kiah Bonnell, the firm being Tweed & BonnelL
Young Tweed had few educational advantages,
all the leaminE that served him In after life
being derived from the newspapers, of which
he was a constant reader. Of books he knew
little or nothing. Tweed learned the chair-mak-
ing trade of his father, and followed it in early
life with industry and thrift. He was a bard
worker, and soon put himself Into comfortable
circumstances.
The volunteer Fire Department was in the
height of its prosperity at this time, and Tweed,
like many other young New-Yorkers, believed
that the highest aim in life was to be the leading
memberoC a good company. His ambition was
g'a lified. for he became the foreman of No. G
ngine Company, which, -through his energetic
efforts in 1849. before the Fire Committee of
the Common Council, was supplied with a
large '• donblenleck " engine, which ob-
tained for the company the popnlar
name of "Big Six." It waa throueh
his efforts, too, that a fine new engine-house
was built for the company in Henry-street,
which still stan<iA, and is occupied by Engine
Company Ko. 15 of the paid Fire Department.
At this time Tweed was comparatively prosper-
ous. He and his brother Bichard were joint
proprietors of a chair factory in Bidge-street,
and of a store in Pearl-street. He was ener-
getic in business, affable, generous, an excellent
companion, and in every way very popular,
t>eing almost worshiped by the members of his
fire company.' and standing high in the esteem
of the entire Fire Department. Some time l>e-
fore bis entrance into political life in 1851, he
led the "Big Six" Company on an exenrsion to
Canada, visiting all the large citiea of the Do-
minion. "Big Six" traveled about for nearly
two months in this way, was hospitably re-
ceived everywhere, and, with' the notoriety
g^ed through the press, on its return to New-
. York the foreman and his company were
greeted with a grand reception.
Meanwhile, Tweed's bu^ess interests were
snfferlng. He was paying too much attention
to social matters, and not enough to his factory.
Some of his old friends date his subsaqnent down-
fall in business to the exoursioa of the " Big
Six" to Canada. At anv rate, Tweed's fortunes
as a chair-maker declined after he became so
active in the Fire Department, until he was ad-
judged a bankrupt, in 1861, although, mean-
s' while, he was a successful politieian. In 1852
and 18r>3 he wasan Alderman from the Seventh
Ward, his popularity as a foreman securing his
election to the board. On the expiration of his
term an Alderman, he was elected to Congress,
serving in that body from Hareh 4, 1893, to
March 4, 1855. While in Congress he made
no mark. He waa better suited to tne arana of
*ard polities, and was more in his element, and
much happier, when he retnmed. and was im-
mediately put in a local office.
In 18o5-ti he was a member of the Bosxd
of Education, and waa made a Supervisor,
representing the DemocratiB Party, in 1857.
He held that office till 1870, when the board
was abolished by the new charter. While a
member of the Board of Supervlsora, he waa
elected a State Senator, (1867J and waa re-
elected to that office in 1870. From 1863 to
ItilO he was Deputy Street Commisaionsr, his
chief at one time being Charles Q. Cornell, and,
afterward, Mr. George W. McLean. He was at
- one time a candidate for Sheriff, but was de-
ieated— his only important political reverse
until the overthrow of the Bing. It waa not
until he became Deputy Street Commiaalonar
that Tweed exhibited that greed for poUtioal
power which waa afterward aoeh a
msr'ied pecuHaritv of his ehaiaeter.
It U said by those who knew Mm that ha oould
not refuse an offiee,BDd«onUlhaTelieldany one
in the gift of the people. He held threa very
important positions at one time — Depn^ Street
Commissioner, Supervisor, and State Seliator.

The histoTy of the Tammany Bing, which
Was tha ontgrowth of years of Demoeratie tnia-
rnle in this City, is Or intimatelr inierweven
with Tweed's experienees that to understand
the latter it is necessary to give a sketch of the
former. The exact date of the inception ot the
colossal scheme of swindling it is very difficult
to give. Tweed, himself, In his testimony be-
fore the recent Investigating Committee ot the
Board of Aldermen, testified that a " Bing" ex-
isted in the Board of Supervisors during his in-
cumbency as a member. ' The Supervisors'
"Bing" was formed at first in 1869,
by tha Democrats in the board, indnding
Tweed, for the purpose ot procuring
the appointment of Democratic Inspectors
of Election. The sum of 92,500 waa used
as a bribe to keep a member of the board away
.from Ita seaaion at which the matter ot ap-
t>ointing the inspectors came up. This scheme
worked so well that Tweed was Inspired to far-
ther efforts. Walter Boehe and John B. Briggs
used to meet him at his office at Na 95 Duane-
street, and formed a combination tor the var-
pose of pushing through the board excessive
bills for supplies and the like.' A combination
of this kind existed until 1870, when the publio were
board was abolished by low, and the way made "* •*•••• i
clear for newer and greater swindles. It was in
1867, according to James H. Ingersoll,
that the understanding waa had that per-
sons who supplied the publio oC&ces and
buildings with materials would be re-
quired to allow to the public officers certain
percentages on the amount of their bills,
some honest tradesmen refused to enter into
the arrangement, but them was found no lack
of persons willing and anxious to do so. James
H. Ingersoll was one of the latter, and speedily
took meins to make the fact known. He was
told by Woodward to fix his bills so as "to put
up 35 per cent." This was an advance on the
previous rate, which had been only 15 per cent.
Of the 35 per cent, 25 were for 'Fwesfid and 10
for Connolly, who was then Controller. On
Jan. 20, 1868, the first of the warrants to In-
gersoll was received, and it opened the door to
numberless others.
Between 1883 and 1870, Tweed was Deputy
Street Commissioner, as well as S^upervisor, and
in 18C8 be was enabled to add to these offices
that of State Senator. He had scarcely taken
bis seat in the Senate before he bemn to pro-
cure legislation to further his efforts at increas-
ing his power in this City. By this time he had
become a man of pretty extensive power, his
position in the Board of Supervisors enabling
him to exercise infiuence with regard to the
passage of resolutions involving the ex-
penditure ot money, tha giving out
of contracts, &&, and hU position
as Deputy Street Commissioner enabling him
to give lucrative positions to men who worked
for him either pecuniarily or politically.
Among the first of Tweed's legislative measnres
was the passage of chapter H53 of the Laws of
1868. which has since become better known as
the " Adjusted Claims " act By it the Con-
troller was given power to adjust claims then
existing against the City and procure money by
the issue of bonds. Payments under this act
began to be made by the Controller In
July, 1868. They were contlnaed up to
Jannary. 1SC9. During thia period, 66
per cent of the claims paid were
divided among the officials. In July. 1869,
payments under the act were resumed, bat the
percentage to officials was increased to 60, and
after November, 1809, to 05 per cent Over
$0,000,000 were paid out by the Controller
under the act. Keyser. Garvey, Ingersoll, and
a number of others whose names have been
brought before the public scores of times, pre-
sented bills increased by 50, 60. or 65 per
cent, and had them paid. At the outset
25 _per cent of the spoils went
to 'Tweed, 20 to Connolly, and 10 to
Sweeny. Subsequently, when the stealing was
increased to 65 per cent., Watson and Wood-
ward obtained 2I3 per cent each, and 5 per
cent was reserved for " expenses," such as pro-
curing legislation, &c. "Tlie division of the
Xils was a matter of daily occurrence, and took
se In the Supervisors' Room ot the Court-
house, where the Supreme Court. General 'Term,
now sits. Woodward.Watson, andlngersoUwere,
in great measure, the persons who made the cal-
culations. They would go totheBrosdway Bank
after Watson, as County Auditor, had given a
warrant for a sum, get the warrant cashed, and
then Woodward would receive Tweed's portion,
which would be separately deposited. Andrew
J. Garvey went about the division more clumsi-
ly at the outset. Housed to carry Tweed's
share of the plunder to him In the
office of the Street Commissioner. On one occa-
sion, while George W. McLean, the Street Com-
missioner, was present, Garvey came into the
otBce with a parcel of money and tried to hand
It to Tweed. It fell on the floor, and Tweed
with a quick motion put his foot on the package
and afterward eantionslv took it up and put it
into a dnkwer, which he immediately olosad.
He subsequently told Garvey to transact money
affairs thereafter with Woodward.
It was about this time, toward the elose of
1868, that Tweed's operations npon tha CIM'
and County Treasuries began to assume gigantte
proportions, and that the " Ring " lieeame com-
pletely organised. Hail hod just been elected
Mayor of the City, and took his seat on Jon. 1,
1869, Connolly was Controller; Watson,
Connty Auditor; Sweeny, Chamberlain, and
Woodward, the Clerk ot the Board of
Supervisors and the recognized agent
and go-between for the Bing thieves.
Work now began in the Legislature and in the
local bodies in earnest "Tweed, aa a Senator,
began to dabble in BMo and in various local
raUroads, to compel different, corporations to
^ve tribute for laws passedin their interest,
and to assist in paving the way for the tax levy
and similar acts. He proeoied the passage of
the Erie Classification bill in 1869 at the sug-
gestion ot Flak and Gonld, and was made a
Director ot the Erie Company in conseqnenoo.
By way of further assisting their achemoa, and
at their anggeatlon, he went to -Judge George
G. Banuud and proenrad an Injnnetion re-
straining Messrs. Vanderbilt jind Drew In their
warfare against the Erie Direetors. While at
Albany, he was constantly procuring legisla-
tion in favor of the Erie managers or else as-
sisting in smothering all attempts to onst
them. The money which he required in these
efloris was readily supplied.
Tweed's next important step wasproenring
the paasMe of the charter of 1870. Under
thia ua office of Street Commissioner and the
Croton Department were dispensed with, and
the powers of both were vested in a Commis-
sioner of Publio Works. Mayor HaU waare-
qnlred to nominate the . Oommissionar. He
appointed Tweed, who, under the aet, could
not be removed during his term of four
year*, unless charges were preferred against
him by the Mayor, and unless ha wore
tried before all of the Judges of the Court of
Common PleOOi Tha Speolal Audit aet followed.
Under it the New Court-houie job waa mada'a

Commladaaora— Coman, Walsh, Norton, and
IngaraoU-^iever held a meeting, but nassad
npon bllla tor sappUea, taking eare to divide 20
■pA cent among themselves. Tweed received

and bcsBds and the creation' of a floating debt
whleh never made its appearance in the Conr
trolter's statements. Connolly, indeed, seemed
to feel so seetire in his poaitloD that, in October,
1870, he had a very respectable commit-
tee, conaisting of Hoses Taylor, £. D.

Edward Schell, and Marshall O. Rob-
erts examine his hooka. They made a enlogis-
tie report In bis favor, oomipending l)im f or nis

as a shield to meet and ward off every attack of
their enemies.
They had miscalculated, however, the power
of a single newspaper, as they afterward found
to their cost A steady warCsre had been waged
by Tax Tiuxs against' the thieves. For a long
tlffle the eontest ssemsd a hopeless one, the
scoundrels were so strongly intronehed at every
avenae ot approach. They threatened to bring
libel salts and imprison the editors, which they
were well able to do by means ot such Jadgea
as Barnard, Cardoso, and MeCunn. Fear of the
oonaeqnenees was the only restraint upon
them. The attaoks were eontinued unre-
mittingly by Thb Thus, and ealmi-
oated, In July, 1871, in tha dlsdosnrss
of the frauds,' by the publlcadoh ot eopion* ax-
tracts from the Controller's bOoks. Tweed and
the others now became farmed, and ordered
the destruction of Woodward's tell-tale books
and the account books of bigeraoll and thaothar
fratidnlent tradesmen. The great armory swin-
dles, the fraudulent pay-rolls and vouchers for
the swindles in eotmeenon with tbe new Court-
house, were exposed one after another. The
' ■ o were stirrsd by these exposures
they had not been since the
great nprising at the beginning of
the civiHwar, and after various aborUvs attempts
to onst the thieves, the public sentiment finally
found utterance at the great Cooper Union
meeting on the night of Sept 4, 1871, at
which the Committee of Seventy was ap-
pointed. On Sept 7 John Foley, obtained an
injunction restraining the Ring officials from
paying out any money or performing
any official acts. While the proceedings
were pending occnrred the robbery of
the large nnmher of criminating vouchers
from the Controller's office, whereby it was
expected the prosecution would be foiled. The
device did not succeed. On Sept 16, 1871,
came the resignation of Connolly, and the ad-
vent of Controller Green took place. This
stopped all further leaks of the City Treasniy
and paved the way for the prosecutions which
followed. By the career of the Bing, so brisfly"

TWEED'S ABBqST AND DTPBISONMENT.
Eaily on the morning of Friday, Oot.
27, 1871, Mr. Tweed appeared at Ills office la
the building set apart for the Department of
Public Works. The corridors and lialla ot the
building were filled by an anxioiu and excited
crowd, evidently waiting tor some oatisaal
event Mr. Tweed did not busy himself in his
office as tisnal. Be was waiting, too. About
1:30 o'clock Sheriff Brennan entered the office
and said: "Mr. Tweed, I have an order
for your Arrest" "I expected it," re-
plied Mr. Tweed, "but not quite so
soon." Sheriff Brennan had just re-
ceived the papers from Wheeler H. Peckham,
The order of amst was grafted by Jtistiee W.
J. Learned, of the Supreme Court, nnder data ot
Oct 25. It was based on an affidavit of Samnel
J. Tilden. made Oct 24, and reciting the evi-
dence against Tweed, Ingersoll, Woodward,
and Garvey, disclosed by an examination of the
books of tbe Broadway Bulk. Mr. Tweed gave
bail in 95,000, his bondsmen being Jay Gould,
Benjamin P. Fairehild,. Bwnard Kelley, Hugh
J. Bastings, and Terrenee Kelley. Mr. Tweed
was to have 20 days to answer to a complaint
demanding judgments against him and his
accomplices to the amount of 96.312,000, with .
interest from Sept 1,.1870. A tew days af-
terward Tweed told a reporter that the arrsot
wtmld not impair his chances of election to the
State Senate from the Fourth District. He
knew his eonstitueney and his tools,' evidently,
for at the election held on Nov. 7 he was elected
by a asjority of 10,673 over Bossa and Millsr,
his opponents, while all other " ^ng" candi-
dates were defeated. This triumph brought no
enjoyment to Mr. Tweed, however, for he'taever
dweil to appear in the Senate. His seat re-
mained vacant, but he did not formally resign
it until March ^26. 1873.
Bnt though Twised was still popular with
"the boys" ot the Sixth Ward, some weighty
influences were at work against him in higher
circles of society. On the 14th of November,
Tweed was arrested as a common felon by Sher-
iff Brennan. on a warrant issued by Beoorder
Haekett The indictment presented by the
Grand Jory charged him with fabricating and
signing fnndolent claims against the County,
and thns receiving large sums of money
for his own lue. He was snaigned next
day in the Court of General Sessions, hav-
ing for counsel John Graham, Judge
Fullerton, J. E. Barrill, David Dudley
Field, and E. W. Stonghton. Judge Bedford
decided to commit him without bail, bnt
Tweed's counsel hastily prepared' a writ of
habma eorptu and aarved it on the Sheriff, wbo
kindly waited for the purpose just outside the
building. The prisoner was taken before Jndga
Barnard, who graatad tha writ and released
Tweed on 95,000 balL On the same day Jadge
Learned, at Albaay, rafosed to vacate the order
of arrest or radnee the bail In the dvU action.
Tweed reigned his position as Commissioner
of Publio llVorks on the 29th of December ;
about the same time he resigned from tha
Board of Directors of tha Erie Railway. On
Deo. 30 he was deposed from the honorable
post of Grand Sachem of the Tamgiany So-
ciety, and was sueoeeded by Augustus Schell.
To compensate him in a measure for the loss
ot these dignities, the Americas Club re-
elected him its President in February, 1872.
To a man ot Tweed's power it was easy to
find aiaans to delay tha oonne et the legal pro-
ceedings against um. 80 his ease was not
brought to trial till Jan. 7, whoa it waaoalled.
in tha Court ot Oyer and Tarmis^, before
Jndge Davia. The trial ended Jan. 30 la a dis-
agreonent ot the jury. A tew days later a mo-
tion for a new trial was granted. The eontlnned
examlnatloB into the oendnet ot tha Bing re-
vealed stiU greater dqpths of viUiday, and on
the 20th ot February, 1873. there -were found
15 new Indiettients against Twsed aad his
fellow-thieves, naming forgery, eonspiraey, lar-
ceny, miademeaoor, aad other erimes against
the property of tl)e Cotinty. He was arnugned
on diese iadistmenia May 16, and pleaded not
gniity. His trial on weae ehargeawaa, on Jime
2, postponed till the October term ot tbe Oonrt
ot Geainal Session^ and waa then thrtherpost-
poned. •

. ESCAPE FBOM LUDLOW-STBkET SJJXj.
But the old man iVas still fertile in e^e-
dienA. fie had one left, ofle more daring and
desperate In its nature than motions of eonnsel.
Oa the night ot Satorday, Dec 4, 1876, he es-
oaped'ttom Lndlow-Street JaU He was in the
custody of Sheriff Conner, and -was supposed to
be closely confined in the jaiL The restraint
however, was ihsrely nominal ; it appeared that
he had often been outside the jail, attended by
keepersT He had gone out in this way on Sat-
urdayaftemOoa, and had token a drive in the
Park, attended by Warden Dunham and Keeper
Hogan, of the jali. Abont 4 o'clock the party
drove to Tweed's hoose sad entered it In a
few moments Tweed went up stairs, to see his
wife, as he said, leaving the keepers In the par-
lor. In abont 20 mlnatas they diseovered
that he had fled. Tha excitement over the
escape was great A reward ot $10,000
waa offered tor his eaptare, and PoUoe ofileers
and detestives all over tbe country kept a shan
lookout tor the fogitive for weeks. Their
efforts were tatile, however, and notUAg was
heard from him till September, 1876. when
news resehed the State DepartmeatatWaabin^
ton that Tweed waa at 'Vigo, a seaport of Spain.
The United States naa-of-wsr Franklin, then
aboat to return home from the Mediterranean
station, was detailed to bring him home. The
voyasB was long and the delay irksome to those
most Interested, but, finally, on the 23d of No-
vember, the Franklin arrived -with her dis-
tinguished passeager, who was immediately
returned to his old quarters ia Ludlow-Street
JaiL Some months later, in April, 1877, the
romantic stoiy of his saeape aad travels 'wa*
published, it waa prepared by Mr. Canlln
O'Brien Bryant, aad told how Tweed had. with
two fellow-prisonars, ooneoeted an elaborate
plaa of essape ; how, from the moment ot his
gettiag nee, he was takea in charge by a gang
of desperadoes, oon'veysd to the Jersey shore,
thsaee to a fisherman's hut on Ststen Island,
and thence in a oosating schooner to Florida,
across to Cuba, and finally to Spain, where he
was aaptnred. The stoiy 'was well told, and
purported to be a truthfol narrative in all
parnenlars. but tha public hss never felt quite
eertain that it -was not largely fanciful, except
as to main facts.
It was during Tweed's absence, and, according
to the published " romance, " while he was stay-
ing in impenetiablo disgniss on Statea Island,
that the 96,000,000 salt was deelded against
hlai, and Jadgmsnt entered tor that amount
An execatlon wa* handed to Sharifl Ooaaer
May 11, aad on the 13th of September it-was
returned by him tmsatisfled, -with the indorae-
ment, " no real or peiaonal property." Indeed,
the great Bing thief had taken eare to pot his
smlen thousands or millions beyond the reach
of judgmenta on the very dawn of his troubles.
Large transfer* of real estate from him to his
wife and son wan recorded in the Begister's
office on March 22, 1873.
m
EFFORTS TO SETTLE THE BING SUITS.
A few weeks after Tweed's return from
Spain mmors were circulated that he waa about
to make a compromise with the City, and give
np all his property as the price of his liberty.
It was said that Mr. Wheeler H. Peckham was
favorable to snoh a disposition of the case, and
that T-wsed's eonnsel. Mr. David Dudley Field,
waa eagaged is perfecting tlie arraBgemeats
necessaty to eSeet a ssttlsmeat But
these reports wen not substantiated. It
would seem that Tweed was iaaliaed to
change his advisers aboat this time, and
that ho had decided upon a new programme of
action. New men had gained his confidence.
Hr. Carolaa O'Brien Bryant beoame an occa-
sional visitor to his rooBU ia Ladlow-Street
Jail, and. It ia said, suggested to hbn a new path
of deliveranee. The $6,000,000 jadgmenthad
been obtaiaed against him in the Supreme
Court, and ha therefore deemed it ao-
eessary to try a new mode ef settlement
On Doe. 12, 187B. he wrote a doletol letter to
Mr. Charl** O'ConoTjand it -was delivered by
Mr. Foster Dewey. The oommtinicatlon, how-
ever, waa aot ma$a paUio until April 4. 1877.
Ia it Mr. Tweed debated that he was " aa old
uaa, greatiy broken la health, east down in
spirit, and eoidd no longer bear any burden."
aa^thst, to mlticattthe prospect of a hopeless
imprisonment he would make any sacrifice or
eilort He t also said that daring the eariy
Stages of his esae he had been wilBag to aiake
any Vestitntioa ia his power, oat that
" eataaglemeats with the interests and counsels
of atiten defeated this." Tweed next stated
that he hoped "to have aay matters afleeting
other persona rsstrieted to yoor [Mr. OXk>nar's]
priyate diseretioa." He added: "For the
present, I have no legal connseL" This letter
was sent to the Attomey-Oeneral by Mr. CCon-
or. mho then prepared to withdraw freia the
Kng salts. No reply -was made to tho eom-
mtmicatlon.
In the meaaUme. Carolaa O'Brien Bryant

THE PBBBENT STATUS OF THE SUITS.
Albamt, April 12. — Jndge Boggles, the
deputy of Attomey-Geneiral SchoOnmaker, anA
aoti^ torfaim in his absence from Albany, said
this afternoon, in re^onss to an iaqolry eon-

Tweed' was held on body exeentions. 'While he

aside suah conveyances, it any there be. The
death of Tw4|d makes no other change in the
statos of the suits.
IPBEFABING FOB THE FUNEBAL.
The funeral 'will aot take place imtil
Wednesday next, npon the arrival from New-
Orieans of Mr. i>fitgttmi« and wife, the doQgh-
ter and son-in-law of Mr. Tweed. Until that
time tha body will be kept packed in ice, in the
bacAtparlor of Mr. Douglass' residence, in charge
of Mr. A. J. Case, the family undertaker. On
the day appointed for the funeral the body -will be
placed in a rosewood casket covered with block
broadcloth, but devoid of ornamentation, ex-
cepting silver handles and a platoon the lid.
There will be no pall-bearers, and the fimeral
'Will be as private as possible. The services
will be conducted according to the Episcopal
Bltual by Rev. Dr. Price, the clergyman who sol-
emnised the martiaga of the deceased to his wife.
The interment will take place at Green-Wood
Cemetery, where tbe Twe«i familv own a circle
of land in one of the most prominent parts of
the cemetery. Mr. Cose said last evening that
Mr. Tweed hod not lost ony flesh during his in-
careeration, his body weighing over 300
pounds. .The residence of Mr. Douglass was
guarded by two policemen last night, who
would allow no one but relatives to enter.

INTERVIEW 'WITH TWEED'S SECRETARY
At a late hour last night tir. Foster S.
Dewey said to a Tncss reporter that the words
published as the last words spoken by Mr.
TVeed were by no means correct There
were present at Tweed's bedside when
he died Dr. Camoehan, Mr. Tweed'a
son-in-law Frederick Douglass, Mr. Edelstein,
law partner of WilUara M. Tweed, Jr., and Mr.
Dewey. "Mr. Tweed's last words," said Mr.
Dewey, " as nearly as I can recall them, were
these: 'I have tried to right some great
wrongs; I have been forbearing with those
who did not deserve it ; I forgive all those
who have ever done wrong to me, and
I want all those who have ever been
harmed by me to forgive me.' He said nothing
about 'guardian angels.' Nobody who knew
him womd ever suppose he could t(dk that way.
What I have told you he said was said by him
in answer to my question whether he didn't
want to say something, for I knew he was go-
ing. He died as calmly and resignedly as John
Wesley did.
"Mr. Tweed made no 'will— he had nothing
to leave iji a will to anybody. He did not even
have any personal property worth making a
will for. Psople soy he hos not accounted for all
his property! He has accounted for all the
property he had left, but people don't know
how much money he has disposed of in the last
five yeara. If he had to account for what he
paid out there would be a good many people
who would feel badly to have th* public know
what they hove dragged out of the
old man. He 'was the greatest wreck
that the world ever saw— politically, socially,
morally. He was extreniely sensitive abont bis
de«th. as to what people would say. Yesterday
he remarked to me: 'This is a moral lesson to
the World.' He seemed to think that otter he
was gone they would preach sermons abont him
and use fatm as on awful example. He felt
very sensitive about that"
"Mr. Tweed's fomily is all scattered at pres-
ent— not one of his four sons is in the City.
William M. Tweed, Jr., and Richard M. Tweed,
his oldest sons, are in Europe; he has
two donghters and two sons-in-law in
New-Orleans ; his daughter Josephine,
Mra. Douglass, is the only one in the City. His
two yoiugest sons— boys of about 12 and 14
years— are at a private educational establish-
meat in New-England. .They have not seen
their father since he went to the Penitentiary
In 1873."
•
A POLITICAL REMINISCENCK
The only va^a tiiat ever defeated William
M. Tweed in a eontest for office before the peo-
ple was Charles Fox. who long since retired
from polities, and who now resides In West
Thirty.eighth-street To a Tjkes reporter last
evening Mr. Fox recalled the incidents of that
campaign. It was intheyrarl854,andthe prize
waathe Aldermanship of the old Seventh Ward.
Tweed woe then a young man of 33, 'rigorous
and In the height ot his popularity. Mr. Fox
vras also a young man. and high in favor with
his party, thouf^ he had only recently entered
the arena of politics. It was a campaign in
which the periodical cry of reform was raised.
The conduct of tbe " Forty Thieves," (as
the Common Council was called,) in the
yean 1862 oad 1853, hod aroused popular in-
dignatioa to the hlj^est pitch, ond the Legisla-
ture hod altered the form ot that branch of the
Municipal Government sOthat there wen 12 Al-
dermen and 60 Common Councilmen— these
had previously been known as Assistant Alder-
men—to be elected, Instead of 40 as formerly.
Tweed was nominated . by the Democratic '
Party, which, m nsnal, was the delin-
quent party. Mr, Fox waa the choice of the
Old LGm WhL|s, and was indorsed by the
American or Know-nothing Party, then very
powerful. There wen also twe other candi-
dates ia the field— William D. Murphy, the
nominee of a split in the 'Whig Par^ and
of tfas B^abllean Party, then reoentiy formed ;
aad John Morphy, an independent Demo-
crat Fernando 'Wood was rnnning tor Mayor.
Excitement in the Seventh Ward never ran
higher. Both parties worked with their utmost
energy tor sneeess. .The Demoento resoMod to
their nsaal taeties, aad un election night en-
deavored to eoimt their opponepts out, but Mr.
Fox marshaled ' his Mends in strong
force at midnight, and, marching to "The
Hook," which 'was Tweed's stronghold,
overawed the inspecton into decency.
The count showed a majority in Mr. Fox's favor
in this district, aad as a oonsequence he had a
minority of 200 or thereabonu in &e ward,
and was duly declared eleoted. The two Mor-
phys got only a tew hundred votes each. Botii
these gentlemen an iiow dead.

Thns far everyttdng had been kept secret, bat at

wet* Uid bef<n« the public in an Ann Arbor letter to
the Chicago JiVibufM. It wes promptly followed by
statemukU from the Universitv authorities, holding
Boee responsible for tbe deficit. The latter at ouee
withdrew from tlie Investigation, asserted hlsinno-
eencet aod declared that if there was any defalcation
tion, Donglaa wae responsible, and was
attempting to make him [Rose] the seap^^&t
In the matter. Rose soon found powerful
alUea, Dr. B. F. Cocker, Professor of Mental Phi-
losophy, investigated the ease and asserted Rose's in*
nnecnce. Rice A- Heal, editor of the Ann Arbor
Courier—* man ef means, great perseverance, and
much poUtieal sUH, and a personal enemy of Dr.
Ponglaa^took npBoee's cause individually and in
bis paper, became his bondsman, and opened a war*
fare of nearly tiiree years* duration now, on Douglas
and his supporters. All these men were leading
Kethodista, and were enabled to make effective use.
in the controversy, of the power of thut denomina-
tion.
In December. 1875, the matter came first before
the Board of Begents in a report from its Ezeentive
Committee fixing the amount of the defalcation at
about S5,000, and virtually holding Rose responsi-
ble ana exonerating Dooclaa. On the strength of
this report, Rose was dismissed, and the matter re-
ferred to anothercommicteeforforther examination.
Regent Bynd was the only one who voted on Che
Rose side. The second investigation increased the
amount of the deHcit^to over S6,000, but did not fix
the responsibility. A third inveetlcatlon by the Re-
gents divided (in the report) the deficU between Rose
and Douglas, apportioning over $4,000 to Rose and
-over 91,000 to Dondu, but did not hold the latter
guilty of dishones^. The outcome of the whole
matter before the Beflents. after nearly a year and a
half of agitation, was ttie removal of Donglaq as well
as of Bme, and tbe Institntin? of a suit a^inst both
by the Univvrsity for the money due it. Meahwhile,
Mr. Beal luid been, in his paper and elsewhere,
steadily champtoning Rose's cause, and had created a
Strong public sentiment in his favor. 'When tho Le-
gislature of 1977 met he went to Ijansing and
continued the agitation there. That body
ordered an investigation into the University scandal,
which was made by a special committee and lasted
three months. It resulted la a report In effect ac-
quitting Rose and holding Douglas eniltr. This Te>
port was adopted by the Ijegislatnre, ana' that body
also formally^ requested the reappointment of Dr.
Rose to hisProfessorahip and his release from any
peconiuy iiability. The Besents refused to comply,
nowever, although it waa threatened that the annual
appropriationB would be withheld if they did not.
Meanwhile, the Bepublican Convention met to nom-
inate candidates for the Regency, and the Beal inter-
est was dominant therein, and two men opposed to
** the Douglas side" wereplaoed in nomination and
duly elected. lASt Summer the trial of
the UniVffTsity suit against Rose and Douglas
came off before Judge Huntington, at Ann
Arbor, the Rose men protestinj; against
the Judge sittinc in the ease, on the ground that be
was biased in favor of Douglas. The result of tbe
trial was a verdiet of $4,624 against Rose and of
$1,047 against Dongas. Mr. Beal denounced all
these proceedings in his paper, and took the stump
to explain the matter still more fully before tbe peo-
ple. After eonsiderable legal sMrmishing, judgment
was finally entered against Rose's bondsmen, (of
whom Beti is the duef.) and It is now In process of
enforcement. But on Jan. 1 tbe two new Re^nta
took thetr seata, and a motion was at once nuuie to
release Dr. Rose from the judgment of the court and
to reappoint him to his Professorships This was de-
feated by a tie vote of 4 to 4. The Rose side, how-
ever, cot control of the Elxecutive Committee, and
pot new eoimsel into the pending case against Rose
and Douglas, who proceeded at once to "getatlo^*
Kerheads'wt^ hU associate appointed by the pre-
ceding oommtttee. As a result, the later proceedings
In court have been enlivened by the hostile tactics
and argumentt of eooitael nominally representing the
same <ment.
In the last week of March the Befnots met affidn
In regnlar session, but with one of their number
(Gen. Coteheon, of Manistee,) absent. At this ses-
sion the diplomas are awarded to the graduates of the
law, medical, and dental schools. Promptly on
meeting, the diplomas were ordered to be issued to
the law gradaates, and then the resolution was re-
newed to reinstate Rose in his Professor-
ship, and release his bondsmen from the
judgment. As Cutoheon's abseujce gave the Rose
men a majortty of one, the miaort^ proceeded to
meet this movement by retirtag from the room, leav-
ing the board without a qoomm. Tbe resnlt of this

the KTsnd old Commonwealth of Masaadhi^
setts for the Interest it had tsken for the WU.
They eonid not forget that ttwasa son of Maesae
chnsetts t^Ir. Butler] wbo had first introdoeed tbe
memorial of the college ; that It was another aea ef
Masaachosetts [Hr. Hoar] wbo had drawn tbe i
which aeoompanled the bul. and which waa n'
to establish his claim to be considered not <
elegant and aeeompUshed s^olar; bat a worthy 1 _,
resentative of the proud Commonwealth whleh had
ever been foremost In the ranks of those who i
nized the amenitieA of literature.
Mr. LoaiNG, of Massachusetts, spoke in advi
of tbe, bill. He eulogised the eoUege, and mptikmk
its Alumni goine out to meet tiie Alnaml of Koctbcm
eolleses in that fearful combet which had cMbetf tte
scholarship of the land with the new and nnaiMteB
radiance of oevi^on and Tslor— repeaStac tbt

he led the learned Athenians at Balsmh.
and by Von Moltke when he marshalea
the educated Germans against France. He \
ted that the legality of the claim for _
might be slight ana qnestloniible. He had no Aapo*
sition to place tbe case on that line where a legal
technicality might destroy it, or where (by being fa-
vorably passed npon) it might establish a trouble-
some and expensive legal precedent. He ooaclndod
bysaymg: "From the heroic pace ot onxhtstecy
tbe name of William and Hary CoUege can never be
obliterated. As the wounds of tbe late vrar beooine
heaied, and as antagonism dies out. that affection
which a powerful nation always feels for Its aneestry
will stuwy move some future Oongreas to remove
those burdens if we ourselves should faU to perform
tiiat honorable service."
Mr. Bksd. of Miune, said that he had listened wltb
regret to the eloquent speech of the gentlpmaa from
Massachusetts, [Mr. Iioring] and he waa aatlafied
that at a day not long distant the gentl«nan from
Maasachtuetts would join him in the regret that he
had aided and supported a bill wliiob wonld in its
eonseqnences be of more tran&eendent importance to
the Government than any bill before the^ouso tUa
session. The l>tli came in a peaceful fonzL but
it would stand as a precedent for all the
Southern claims. It was a knife bidden in carianda.
He declared there was noprecedent for a bUl of this
kind. Bunker Hill and Yorktown might unite aad
waltz together, but thev could not change tbe faefe
that no nation had been so idiotic as to establish a
principle which would bankrupt it sooner after a vie-
tory than after a defeat. The advocates of the bUl
denied that it would form a preeedaat. Of
course, nothing was a precedent nntil tt waa
passed. There were bills now before tbe House
amounting to $300,000. for tbe "deetmetion of vra^
erty of colleges, &^, during the war, and tbia waa
only in the ereen tree. Just think of these elalma
being translated to the upjwr air, in which yiiglnia
and Massachusetts, and perhaps South Oaroliaa
could alone exist. [Laughter.] Just think of them
up there with all the dead heroes of tbe past, and*
tue whole business of our English Uteratnrk
Bat how were these claims going to be
met! Notwithstanding ' that every maabei
had introduced a bill for the coinage of
the silver dollar, [laughter,] notwittstaadtaf
that every other member had introduced biUa tn rw>
gxro to the finances, such as issuing 9^00.000,000.
notwithstanding all those bills, he had diseovered
that one-tenth of all the bills Introduoed tUs eaasloa
were for Southern claims. Three hundred and eigb^ '
nine of those bills were pending to-day, amonnting
to $4,309,000, and that was excludinK the UIl r»-
fnndine the cotton tax. The members frem
the South did not desire to introdnea tbeee
bills. Thev had an election before them. They
wanted conciliation and peace, but they were foroed
to present them b^ public sentiment in tbe Sovth.
He had listened with interest to the remarks made
the other day by Mr. BlMckbom. of Kentucky, and
be had approVed some parts of the speech. He [Uk.
Keed] believed that after tho maguifieent eontesi
which shook the entire continent, after millions
bad fought each other face to face, it would
have been a miserable clone to have a half
dozen poor wretches kicking their heelf
against tne blue sky and swinging from a gaBowa
But tbe gentleman had charged tnat the Bepublioaa
side ot tbe Uouse was eonatantly bTiagtiiff np the
question ot Confederate claims. The ooekes ot the
House was crowded with Southern daima and Ullsi
how could they be discussed without refeivuee to the
wsr. If the Southern Bepresentativea broagfat wp
such bills as the present, tbey must eiqwet to hear
about the war. He appeialed to them to let bygonea
be bygones, and let tbe country rest in peaoa.
Mr. Ton^'SKXD, of New- York, took uie floor amid
eonsiderable excitement, and aald : I came to this
House with a de^re, before taking my oatbito do
equal and exact jnstlee to all parts of this Unfam,

Losa BsAxcH, April 12.— The Zlon (colored)
Methodist Episcopal Church, a few miles back from
the shore, haa made itself famous, within a few
tew montiia, by the number and fervor of Its revival
meetings. . Glory haa ah«ne around ever itnca snow
fell. The whites attended 111 large numbers, some to
have their souls repaired, others to see the lights. A
few weeks ago some of ^a revived ones (several
Trustees of the ehnreh amomfc the number, it is al-
leged, ) pitched into the whites and blacked their eye*.
This broke up the meetings, and the converts, moat
of them, went back to their wicked ways. It is now
proposed to begin the meetings again, next Stmday.
Elder Thomas W. H. Hinton, Pastor of the CHiare^
haa sent the following letter to the neighboring eoim-
try newspapers :
" Notloe to an Christian churches, that the qnar-
feriy meeting of the African Methodist Eplseopal
Zlon Church, South Eatontown, will be held on Sun-

TheproeMtUngayaatardar in AgVandarhUt
wiU eaaa watt mainly cimllnad to offaia of taatiaMoy
tending to sustain the aTlagatJon that tha taatator
waa nndnly Itiflaaiwad by his ^t aadby William
H. VaoderUlt. Mr. Lord siOd that he had axpaetad
to have two of the " con*p(Ta«y witnaam" in eoigrt,
bnt be had learned that they wyre pravented from
attandiag by stekneaa. Neither waa he, ready to In-
troduca the axperta, and would therafore oeeopy thf
day by examining other witnesaaa.
Mr. Iiaae A Brigga tastlfied that he had known
Commodore TandarWlt siaea 1888 1 had eon-
versationa with him la 1873 at hia house
In West Washington-place, and at tho Grand
Central Depot; In the FaU of that year
he convened with the Opmmodora nlativa to tha
tudebtedneia of Cornelius J. to Horace Greely ; tha
debt amounted to $26,000, and witneu aslnd tha
Commodore whether he waa disposed to pay Mr.
Greeley ; he said he would not pay it tbes, and added
that Mr. Greeley waa a gnat foolfor giving tba
money to OomellnsJ.; " I do not aay," the Commo-
dore said, " that Greeley shallloae tUi money, but I
decline to pf y it now." Franeia J. Kbuey, a livery-
stable keeper, testtfled that the Oonuaodore, having
taken a fancy to a horse owned by him, called at his
stables aud asked the price of the animal ; he [Kin-
zey] answered that another man hadtetajpricaon
the hprsa, and ba could not sell him to
the Commodore! the latter replied, "Yoans
man, yon do not know who I ami I
am Commodore Vknderbllt, the greatast railroad
man in America, and my sou comes after ma" Mr.
Lord offered to prove, through Ansel Vroom, of Caa-
tletoD, Staten Island, that, under the infinence of his
second wife .the Commodore violated ata*tament«7
promise to establish and endow a female SBtvetsity
at New-Dorp, Staten Island, and that the wife
farther exercised her influence to the extent of in-
dacinj; the Commodore to endow an educatienal in-
Etltntion at Nashville. Tha evidence was excluded
for the present. Hosea Blrdsall was called to^provo
that in 1854 the Commodore raid, " Bllty wasgood
for nothing but to go on a farm," and that he pro-
posed to make a fanner of him.
Judge Comstock — It has been shown that ha subsa-
qnently said *' Billy" was as good as himself.
Mr. Lord— That waa the beat evidence in tha world
that the Commodore was insane-
The Surrogate decided to releot the evidenca
BiidsaU was permitted to testify that Commodore
VanderbUt expressed a daaln in 1860 to retire from
business ; he was engaged at that time in the steam-
ship business Mrs. La Ban was recalled by Mr-
Lord to testi^ that she never said anything deroga-
tory of Mrs. VanderbUt to William H. Tanderbut.
The offer gave rise to tedious argumenta and was
finally accepted, subject ■ to a motion to strike
out after an examination of aothoritiea Mr.
De Fovest was recalled, and said that the
Commodore dispensed with the services of
Bennett, the magnetic physician, beaanse he
was a Spiritoallst ; notwithstandinjt this Bennett
seemed to relieve the Commodore ; witoeaa told
Bennett thathe had made a great fool of himself by
alluding to Spiritualism before the Commodore, aud
that if he bad not done so he would have received
larger compensation for his services ; witness never
observed any acts of violence on the part of the
Commodore agamst his physicians and attendants ;
never saw the witness, Mrs. Ellen S. Clark, at the
Commodore'a house.
The next hearing will be held on June II, and
subsequent proceedings are sat down for July 2 and
3, and between Sept. 20 and the end of October.
A LOXa ISLAND SAJLBOAD JBOSD SUIT.
Adolph Poppenhusen and Henry C, Poppen-
husen made a contract several years ago with Charles
Knoblanch and Paul Lichtenstein, of tills City, to
negotiate the sale in Europe of between $3,500,000
and $4,000,000 of the lint mortgage bonds of the
Flushing, North Shore and Central Badroad of Long
Iiland at a stipulated price. Knoblauch & Lichten-
stein employed Robert E. Bandall, of Philadelphia,
to go to Enrope and place the bonds. BandaU went
to Europe and, as he claims, made the .sale, thooah
not on precisely the terms agreed upon - betwaan the
bankers and the Poppenhusens, yet upon terms
which the latter, at the time, accepted as satiafac-
tory. Subsequently, however, the Poppenhusens t^
pudlated the contract and refused to deliver the
bonds, ao that the transaction became void, and
Bandall sued the bankers aud the Poppenhusens for
$70,000. to which be claimed he waa entitled aa
commissioa.' Being a non-resident, he was obliged
to give security for the coats in the suit. His bonds-
men were excepted to, and in the proceedings to jua
tify hia bondsmen, on the 9th of March, 1878, an
omisaion was made to adjourn the case properly.
and the defendants took judgment by default. The
ease came up in the Sapreme Court, before Judge
Donohue, yesterday, on a motion to set aside the de-
fault and restore the case. The motion waa granted.
A WASSTNO TO BLACK-UAILESS.
Samnel L. Uendes, the book-keeper who
pleaded guOty to {laving attempted to black-mall
Mr. PhiUp Stiser, his former emplbyer, by writing
lettaia. ia which he threatened to charge Mr. Stlner
with arson and defrauding his . creditors unless his
silence was purchased for $3,000, was called up for
sentence in General Sessions yesterday. Ex-District
Attorney Garvin appeared for tha prisoner, and ex-
^dge Dittenhoefer represented Mr. Stiner. Mr.
Garvin asked, tn view of the fact that several of the
priaoner's friends thought be ought not to have
pleaded guilty, permission to withdraw the former
plea and plead not guilty. Assistant District At-
torney Rollins said the prisoner hsd voluntarily
admitted his guilt many weeks ago, and
after several delays, his counsel, now, without
a word of notice saw fit to take aoother eourse.
lie opposed the inptlon and moved for lentaBoe. Re-
corder Hacketc sad he saw no reason tor gzantisg
the request and denied tha motion. No lasa aa a warn -
ing to othan than aa a pnnlahment to the prisoner
himself, ho fdt eallad upon to impoaa a Mvere pen-
alty, and would, therefore,senteoee the prisoner to
four years in the State Prison, at bard labor. On
hearing hia sentence, Mendes exclaimed, "Oh, my
Godr'and, throwing up his arms deapalrin^, fdl
back powarlen into the arms of tlie eoort oSkaia.

March for the purpose of Inducing the saiion on
board to leave the ahip, and who waa than shot

The Signal Service Bureau report indicates
for to-day, forthe IBddle 4tlantic States, clear
or partly cloudy veather, north-tcesterly vtinds,
itationary temperature, and risina barometer.
The bill to saddle the State with some
twenty-seven millions of bonded debt con-
tracted by certain local, authorities for the
Deneflt of railroads has been taken ont of
the hands of the '^^ys and Means Com-
tnitte, and will be before the Assembly next
(reek. The vote by which this result
has been attained cannot be taken
as an indication of the strength of the bill,
tho<agh it has made the fact snfSciently ob-
vions that the measure possesses a danger-
ens amount of strength. The bill proves
that the repudiating spirit of the West and
South exists in New- York in a more insidi-
ous shape. Most of the communities
interested in the success of this
bill have made repeated atWmpts
to get rid of the liabilities which were in-
curred in " flash times" by their accredited
ascents, ud with at least their own tacit
consenti Failing in these, they propose to
escape theynecessity of paying their debts
by iodacitig the State to act as guarantor
and a« -oostodian of a sinking f and for
the red4mption of liabilities with which
the Statle has nothing whatever to do. The
purpose of saeh a measure is as obvious as
its reahlts would be disastrous. It should
be priimptly killed, however certain it may
be tut a similar application will find its
V7ay to the Legislature, after being made a
distinct issue in local elections, for many
lessions to come.
£x-Door-keeper Polk declines to be a
scapegoat. He has taken to publishing
cards which worry the Demoeratie members
aot a little- It is evident, as has all along
been maintained in these columns, that
poor Polk is as much sinned against as sin-
aing, and that some of his friends in the
Bonse are really responsible for his dis-
jpraceful failure. Speeifleally, Col- Polk
sharges that Mr. Cabteb Harrison, one of
tbe Democrats who signed the report recom-
mending his removal, had been mstde an en-
emy by the Door-keeper's reluctance to
violate his plain duty. In the division of
the spoils Hareuson drew a plaee on " the
soldier roll "; but he would have none of it.
Out of that circumstance grew his grievGuace
with Polk. Congressman Potter, of New-
Tork, also " drew " a place for a disabled
soldier; and the veteran whom he furnished
was an able-bodied editor who had never
been in the servioe, but who was sworn
upon the roll, with Mr. Potter's coimiv-
ance, in the absence of the Door-keeper,
contrary to law. These disagreeable state-
ments are made in a card published yester-
day b>y the banished keeper of the door, who
defies the accused Congressmen to say that
his atory is not true. One account repre-
■en'^ Mr PoTTEB as being advised that
pr7nter's ink will not heal his wounded
honor. There are wounds which even news-
\lapei cards cannot reach.
Tnz-Jowa Pobteb's case is at last to be
-teopened. An application was made to the
President by the cashiered officer, last
month, for a court of inqtiiry. Porter
seems to have lost confidence in the possi-
bility of getting a bill for this purpose
through Congress, and the President has
acceded to his demand. Porter's letter to
the President being embodied in the order
issued by the General of the Army. The
court of inquiry will immediately convene
at West Point to examine the new evidence
whiw]^ ft ia, claimed can be present-
Chi the result of this inquiry will
og the laetion of the President, who
.y, if he chooses, revoke, modify, or eon-
the ori^sal sentence of the eonrt-mar-
'tial which e^o^eted Pobteb. That conrt-
Pobteb guilty, and he was
te cashiered and " forever
holding any office of trust

.*' As this is an era of coneil-
iti^tation, the reopepingof

/ Obm toot* tiM ever-shifting current of
'Bnrop«'an poHtics has set toward peace. It
is annonnood that England has taken Prince
00BTSCBASor?'8 hint to " formulate a ootm-
ter-proposal," and has chosen as her mes-
senger to St P«twabtit4 the same CoU
Wellkslit whom Bolitfa formerly invited
to joiB tfa« . XUf» meo^ditiM oC^lSTS.,
Anatria's Teeeat deelsration, in vmwmt to
the Porte, that, if Russia adhered to the
treaty of San Stefano, "she horiielf vosld
strenuously defend her own intenMa,thoi]|^
she oonldnot prot«ct those of Europe siagle-
handed," snfSciently explains the seeming
vacillation% of the Vienna Cabinet during
the last few .weeks. On the other hand, the
conciliatory tone of Buasia toward Boa-
mania, and 'the proposal that a Bnisian
Commissioner shaU be sent to Bnoharest to
settle the points at Issue, are distinctly
traceable to the belief, stcengthend by
various 8ymi>tom8| that Servia, Bon-
mania, and Montenegro may be tempted
to make common eaflse againtt
the obnoxious treaty, and to invoke the aid
of England and Austria. Indeed, Bussia's
present moderation may undoubtedly be
ascribed to the secret influence of Germany
in the first place, and also to the fear of
finding herself unexpeotedly ooonpying the
isolated position to which she has been en-
deavoring to rednee Eagland. It is evident
enough, however, that all parties are grow-
ing weary of this aimless brandishing of
weapons, and the unwontedly peaceful ut-
terance of the official Journal de St Vitlrs-
hourg, that, " should the powers" find a com-
promise, Bossia will willlnglv participate in
the discussion, and modify the treaty,"
probably expresses the general feeling ac-
curately enough.
Mr. Henry A. Smalley, one of 3'ndge
DoNOHUE's "Gratzes," or in other words,
one of the political prot£g£s of Johx Kelly,
is being anxiously sought for by the repre-
sentatives .of various bankrupt concerns of
which he is Eeceiver. According to the
testimony of Smalley's friends, he is a man
of " irregular habits," whom it has always
been diflScult to find " where he was
wanted for business purposes." As there
are sums in his possession variously esti-
mated at from $6,000 to $30,000, and as
be has not been seen in this neighborhood
for about six weeks, it is feared that Mr.
SsiALLEY has found business reasons to
permanentlv sever his lucrative connection
with the New- York courts. As Smalley is
likely to get as easily off as that other
prot6g6 of Mr. Kelly, Excise Commissioner
McTRPHY, his only obvious reason for regret
will be that he did not supply himself more
liberally with funds than he- is reported to
have done. His case will lend new interest
to the inquiry addressed by the Assembly to
the County Clerk as to the name, and fees of
the Beceivers appointed by our Jiolitieal
Judges daring the last fifteen montiis, and
is an impressive commentary on Judge
DoxoauB's selection of the notorious Henry
J>. PuBBOY as Beferee in a divorce suit
yesterday.
TBE DUTY BEFORE THE PARTI.
Even a Democratic platfosm has its uses.
Though it may not instruct, it is service-
able as a warning. The burden of that
just adopted by the Illinois Democracy is in
the main stale enough. Its utteranoes on
the financial question are significant only
so far as they reveal the readiness of the
party to adapt itself to the worst forms of
the demagogism whose power is yet but
partially felt in Congress. The people of
the Eastern States are too prOne to believe
that the extreme opinions which imparted
to the remonetization movement the larger
portion of its strength are evanescent and
confined to an inconsiderable class. The
agitation, they say, must not be estimated
by its noise and smoke. The Springfield
Convention is but one °of many rebokes to
optimism of this character. The original.
Greenback organization aimed not so much
at tbe exercise of a third party influenee as
at the acquisition of authority in the councils
of the two national parties. Success at-
tended its plan. Almost everywhere in the
West it drove tbe entering wedge into the
management of both. Concessions were
made to it in the construction of platforms.
Nominations were adjusted with the view of
catching its votes. And the immediate re-
sult is seen in the demoralization visible
alike among Bepublicans and Democrats
in Congress whenever financial questions
are presented. Bat the demands of the
movement increase with its successes. The
old parties do not move fast enough to sat-
isfy its aggressive spirit. They are re-
strained by considerations of policy to
wiiieh it is indifferent. They recognize re-
straints which it has repudiated. Out of
this fa^t grow the reasons for the existence
of the National Party. The purpose as de-
clared at Toledo looks far beyond bargain-
ing with Bepublican and Democratic mana-
gers. Drafts are to be made upon the
ranks of both parties. A new force is to
be put in operation in the nation's politics ;
great issues are to be raised in a manner
that will compel attention and materially
affect the action of other i)arty leaders.
Already we have proof that the National
Partv wields a power that cannot safely be
despised. The recent elections in Michi-
gan may be taken as fair indications of the
inroads which it has wrought in the regular
parties. Michigan has not usually been
ranked among the wildest of the Western
States. It has been supposed to be more
conservative than Indiana or Illinois. And
when we find its political calculations "up-
set by an organization representing tbe
united measures and votes of the Green-
back and Labor movements, we cannot too
frankly concede the probability of serious
changes in the party complexion of Western
districts hitherto Bepublican. Th'e danger
that inenaces them proceeds from the new
National Party, which is more formidable
than the Democracy as regards financial
and kindred questions because it is more
honest. The communism of Voobbbxs,
the inflation and repudiation of EwiNO, are
unmitigated knavery. They are devices
of demagogues. So,- when Democratio
Conventions in lUinois and elsewhere de-
clare war against the public credit, acdut
the pledges given to the bondhold^, assail
the national banks, and claim for the gen-
eral Government absolute control of the
currency, in kind and amount, we know
that they are pandering to the multitade
_ aroond them. Th'e bids they make for popu-
lar favor are testimony to the strength of
the feeling they desire to conciliate, but
they are too palpably dishonest to win the
respect of intelligent men. Now, the Na-
tional Party has a full share of demagogoes.
The more it grows the more demagogues it
will attraot. But the seeietof the immense
strides effected by the movements now
allied tmder the national niame lies in
the faith which the great body of

How ftr tBew honesty tek^mblesfutatieism,

to be kept in mind by Bepublicans who

that the. National organ'itation is thepro-
dnetof a one-sided di*<;lueioB<rfimp<irtaat

straightforward ih its designs.
■ The probability therefoM is, that the Na-
tional Par^ will for a time eontiniie to in-
crease in strength. Greenbackers, extreme'
silver men, inflationists, and repudiators
generally are mote likely to 'be drawn
toward it th&n to be attraeted by tHe
hoUow demagogism jof the Western De-
mooraoy. None but a fool can mistake
the meaning of the vagtie but mischievous
propositions of the Illinois Democrats. . It
is because shams are always sooner or
later detected, that the Bepublican ±'arty
should refuse to listen to the cowardly sug-
gestions of leaders who would have it
preserve silence .in the presence of danger-
ous financial heresies. Undoubtedly, there
are in the Bepublican ranks many who hold
opinions identical with those which distin-
guish the National Party. Their loss will
be felt in more than one donbtfal district.
But the partv can better afford to lose them
though their number were twice as large,
than to imitate. the Democrats in their dis-
graceful bidding for votes. Let demagogism
of this sort be left to others. The Bepub-
lican Party is worth preserving only so long
as it remains a party of principle. And its
hopes of saecess, in the present condition
of parties, are more than ever dependent
upon the fidelity and courage with which it
shall antagonize its convictions to the
tmokliag of the Democrats and the undis-
guised demands of the National Party.
Upon one question the Illinois Democrats
are in advance of the Nationals. The latter
limit their repudiation to a single stipula-
tion of the public debt, and base even this
upon the letter as opposed to the spirit of
the contract The convention which met at
Springfield on Thursday commits the De-
mocracy of that State to a proposal to rob
the holders of Western town and county
bonds of their constitutional right to relief
through the intervention of Federal courts.
Georgia was supposed to be the possessor
of a peculiar infamy when it so framed its
new Constitution as to exclude certain classes
of its bondholders from the courts of the
State. Illinois Democrats propose that
counties and municipalities shall with im-
punity refuse to levy taxes, or to pay funds
in hand, in satisfaction of judgments "ob-
tained on accotmt of bonds in default
From the local law there is no chance of
obtaining any cheek upon this kind of re-
pudiation. Federal authority, however,
has been invoked against it, and the Democ-
racy insist that Congress shall by legisla-
tion come to the help of Western repudia-
tors. Thus multiply the questions which
the Bepublican Party mus^ be prepared to
meet whenever it seeks to oonfihn its title
to the confidence of the country.
TWEED.
'* This fbll sergeant, death, is strict in his
arrest." William Marcy Tweed has passed
beyond the custody of the New-Tork Sheriff,
and gone to an assize where justice is less
halting than here below. Far be it from us
to say that it was a delusive confidence
which nerved him to look calmly into
the eyes of death, and to plead that
his acts might be judged by his motives
when about .to pass before the bar of the
Supreme Judge. But we Aould equally
transcend the limitations of an imperative
duty were we to bespeak indulgence for the
crimes of the dead man or sympathy
for his misfortunes. Such talents as he
had were devoted to cheating the people
and robbing the public l^easury; his
tastes were gross, his life impure, and his
influence, both political and personal, more
pernicious than that of any other public
man of his generation. That vulgar, ma-
terial type of success which he attained by
trampling on justice and honesty, and set-
ting at naught all the restraints of law and
fidelity to public trust, was precisely of
the kind best fitted to dazzle tbe unthink-
ing and corrupt the mind of youth. The
story of his rise is the very ro-
mance of professional robbery thinly
disguised under the , pretense of po-
litical activity ; his fall has neither
been so sudden nor, so complete as to lend
an impressive moral to the deceitf olness of
ill-gotten wealth. The millions that he stole
enAIed him to escape the penalty of the
common thief ; the law that he defied in his
prosperity was to the last powerless to hold
him to a strict aeoount Instead of dying
in a felon's cell, he ended his
days surrounded by every comfort that
could be introduced into a debtor's prison ;
instead of sinking ont of sight and mind, he
remained to the hour of his death a centre
of political intrigue and a source of political
defisination. The men who can be at-
tracted bv'the career of Tweed will not be
repelled by the circumstances amid which
it closed.
But for such a career, and all that it rep-
resente, society iteeU is mainly responsible.
Such a product could not have been reared
except on favorable soil. The indolence, the
apathy,-and the seU-seeking of his fellow-
citizens gave him Uie opportunity he cov-
eted ; the callousness of pablie conscience
and tbe base worship . of wealth, no matter
how acquired, procured for him the
assooiittion of "respectable^ men and
the toleration, if not the applause, of
eminent representatives of all the
great interests of New-York. He
packed the Bench with his ereatnres, and
the Bar made no andible'protest ; he bought
legidatots aa openly as batehen buy cattle,
and the people re-elected them; he visibly
guided the Executive pen that inscribed
laws' on t^e statoto book, and those who

The British Government has long held
to the belief tiiat muzzle-loading cannon
were more serviceable than breech-loaders,
while at least four of the five larger Conti-
nental nations are entirely in favor of the
latter system. So far as this country is con-
cerned, we are not yet committed to either
system, forthe simple- reason that we have
no modem ordnance. At the close of the
rebellion we found ourselves in possession of
a lot of smooth-bore large guns, and since
then have made few new ones. England's
adhesion to the old-fashioned system -was
contrary to the -vie-ws of nearly all the rest
of Europe. Further tlbm this, she has all
along insisted that the 100-ton guns
manufactured at Elswick for the Italian
Government were too large, and evinced
a determination to hold on to her own
80-ton cannon. To the astonishment
of everybody familiar with these facts, the
war authorities quite recently yielded
both -points, and now England not only
owns several breech-loaders, but they are
the largest guns in existence. In March
last the Government purchased from Sir
William Armstboko four 100-ton guns,
the negotiations being kept secret, for the
reason that there were other bidders in tbe
European market for the monster weapon s.
It is now said that tbe chief argu-
ment for their acquirement was the
apprehension that they might become the
property of another power, and so enable
it to dominate the seas. But in all proba-
bility their purchase was decided upon
after it had been ascertained that the In-
flexible, the toughest ship in the British
fleet, would be defenseless against the 100-
ton guns which Italy possesses. In view of
this fact, and kno-wing that it will take less
time to plate a ship than to build a. gun,
the War Depariment closed the bargain.
The present naval armaments of Great
Britain are not, however, built with a -view
to the use of such mighty ordnance, and they
will not be placed on ship-board for some
time to come. It may be added rhat the
report that an order would be given before
long for a gun of 200 tons is untrue. Ques-
tioned recently on this subject in the House
of Commons. Mr. Hakdy said that there was
no intention to make such a gun, adding
that there was no ship in the service which
could carry it if made.
The construction of hea-vy ordnance is an
art which is yet in its infancy, but great as
are the resulte thtis far achieved, there is no
donbt it is capable of further development
Visitors to the Centennial -will remember
the magnificent display of breech-loading
heavy and light artillery made by Herr
Kbupp, of Essen, and which has been un-
eqnaled by any former exhibition. ' The
largest of these guns had in actual experi-
ments fired a shell weighing 1,146 pounds,
at a velocity of 1,637 feet in one second,
and with a ' striking force of 21,295 in
foot tons. The 100-ton guns are, how-
ever, the most powerful implements of.
war in existence. One of these guns is
capable of sending a 2,000-pound pro-
jectile through 27 inches of iron plate
at a distance of a thousand yards, and it
would, perhaps, penetrate the thickest
armor afloat at a distance of a mile. In-
deed, higher results than these have been
obtained, the muzzje energy in foot-tons
having been increased from 33,000 to a
force ranging between 36,000 and 37,000
foot-tons, the velocity of the projectile
being raised from 1,542 feettoaboutl,620
feet per second. This velocity about cor-
responds to that of the Woolwich' 80-
ton gun, but the shot being so
much heavier, the penetrating power
is considerably enhanced. By way of
comparison, it may be mentioned that the
largest guns in our own servioe are a few
20-inch smooth-bore muzzle-loading wea-
pons capable, with a charge of '200 pounds
of powder, of firing a projectile weighing
1 ,080 pounds. There are also many smooth-
bdres of lesser.calibres, which now largely
constitote the casemate armament of the
United States sea-coast defenses. These,
however,are comparatively ineffective, and
some of them have been converted mto
rifled guns on the Palliser system.
The heaviest guns in our Navy are 15-inch
smOotb-bores, weighing 42,000 pounds,
trith a solid projectile of 440, and a shell
of S52, poinds, and with a muzzle
velocity of 1,560 feet The tremendous
cost of such immense cannon as are
made in Europe -trill long prevent our
authorities from further improving the
present system of heavy ordnance. The
English muzzle-loader of -80 tons costs
about $50,000, while the price of the
Elswick "breech-loader of 100 tons,. as
charged to the Italians, is about $80,000.
The Essen breech-loader, exclusive of the
carriage, is valued at $100,000. This last-
mentioned manufactory is prepared to make
a steel breech-loader of 124 tons, -with a
calibre slightly exceeding half a yard, to
tfarowashellof a ton weight, propelled by
a powder charge of about 500 pounds, for
$165,000. Not Ipng s'mce Herr Kbupp
proposed to lend the English Government a
gun for $76,000, but he required an order
to-be given, in ease of sncoess, for gnns^ to
the extent of $10,000,000. These terms
were hjeld to be mueh too onerous, and the
'offer -«ras declined. In explanation, the
Essen mann&otnrer wrote a letter in which
heaan: " I have had to carry- oiit an im-
mense number of costly experiments un-
aided -by any Government grant, for the
purpose 4>f perfecting the breech4oader,
andtherefore-nvB not disposed to furnish a
guii to the English which should be used a s
a model for future cgnstmction."
The present eta, it will be seen, is one of
ViKttUM*^1li^itpnA.hMit»ix4mfm^ i$_
no iaune^ivto probability of oor having to
eater into tbelr eonstmetiou. The nation*
of Europe, however, show but little of the
spirit of moderation and peaceableness, and
are eonstantiy improving their armies and
naviee. The most powerful armaments are
built, and there seems no limit to the use of
monster ordnance and ponderous armor.
Iron-clads are constructed to resist the
heaviest guns, and immediately ordnance is
manufactured to destroy them. It is a ques-
tion of defense and offense ; of resistance
and penetration; of steel armor and steel
gnns. Thus far the experiments have been
in favor of the latter. In the meantime, the
most satisfactory experiments are going on
-with torpedoes, and at a comparatively
small cost boate may be procured which, it
is believed, can immediately destroy the
toughest iron-clad afloat
TBE Pie-TOKB.
To the rule of the South snceeeds the rule
of the West. After the whip of the Southern
slave-owner* comes the pig-yoke of the
Western demagogue.' The former curled
most unpleasantly about our Eastern legs
until the revolt of the Bepublican Party
banished it forever. The latter bids fair to
strangle our prosperity and to reduce us to
helpless servitode.
It is idle to deny that the Eastern States
are powerless in the national councils. The
West, with its Southern allies, holds us com-
pletely in its power, and threatens us,
through Mr. Ikoalls and other mouth-
pieces, with an arrogance that recalls Mr.
Toombs in his loudest moments. The pas-
sage of the Silver bUl, in order to enable
Western debtors to defraud their Eastern
creditors, was only the first step toward the
subjugation of Eastern "bondholders" and
"capitalists," and that it trill be followed
by a rerival of the income tax at no very
distant day there is no possible room to
doubt. We may protest as loudly as we
please, but the protests of a powerless
minority are a mere waste of words. Hence-
forth we hold our property at the sufferance
of the West, and we shall save ourselves
from the shock of unpleasant surprises by
recognizing the fact, and wearing the pig-
yoke as gracefully as possible.
The revival of the income tax is advo-
cated by the West on the ground that it is
not a burden upon the people, and that it
affects only the loathsome capitalists. In
the view Of the Western statesman, " the
people " m'^ans those who have nothing, and
the " capitalists " are those who have some-
thing. In comparison with the population
of the whole country, the class upon whom
the income tax will fall is extremely small,
and, as the advocates of the tax assert, con-
sists of not more than 250,000 persons.
To impose a tax upon 250,000 persons for
the benefit of 40,000,000 may not seem
precisely fair to those who are compelled to
pay it ; but the Western statesman, regard-
ing it as a means of spoiling the moneyed
Philistines, is enthusiastic in its support.
It is the East, and not the West,'that wiU be
affected by the income tax, and to the West-
em mind there is something peculiarly fas-
cinating in the spectacle of Eastern "capi-
talists" paying money into the Federal
Treasury, and thus enabling the Govern-
ment to reduce the tax upon Western
whisky.
Of coarse, the East does not propose to
weep and howl over the income tax. The
pig-yoke is certainly galling to the neck,
but as long as we cannot rid ourselves of it
there is no use in bewailing our fate. It is
permissible, however, for us to suggest to
onr Western masters, with great respect,
and in an attitude of profound humility, that
it is better to gain their ends in a straight-
forward than in a circuitous way. The
plain meaning of the income tax is that those
few men who have money are to be forced
to share it with those who have none. It
accomplishes to a limited extent what the
Communist seeks to accomplish by his
social panacea — the division of property.
If the Government takes fifty dollars from
the man.whose income is a thousand dollars,
it can reduce to the same extent the in-
direct taxation of the man who has no tax-
able income. 'When the West clamors for
the imposition of an income tax which -will
bear almost exclusively upon Eastern men,
it is really demanding that part of the money
of Eastern men should be wized and divided
among " the people "—or, in other words,
among Western debtors and the poorer
classes generally.
Now, it woidd be much more frank and
honest in appearance were the West to scorn
the circuitous legislation and elaborate ma-
chinery of the income tax, and to boldly re-
quire the capitalista of the East to give a
percentage of their incomes to ' * the peo-
ple " of the West ; so that the money could
thus be given direcUy to those who need it.
A bill might be dra-wn with this end in
view, which would ^ve great satisfaction
to " the people." Every man whose income
is $2,000 might be required to give six
suite of clothes per annum to an equal
number of deserving Western men to be
desi^lliated by some competent authority.
Men -with incomes of $3,000 could be made
to give, in addition to the six suits of cloth-
ing, six barrels of flour. An income of
$4,000 might entail the duty of adding a
barrel of whisky to the ' clothing and flour,
and from persons with an income of $5 ,000
there might be expected in addition a pair
of horses and a cow. As for persons with
incomes exceeding $5,000, the excess
should be confiscated-eiid di-vided per cap-
ita among all who support the financial pol-
icy of the West. Thus the true purpose of
the income tax would be accomplished in a
direct and effective way,- and without any
weak concession to a wicked prejudice
against communism.
Of coarse, it seems somewhat presump-
toons to offer advice to those who have it in
their power to do -with us as they choose.
Still, the West, as yet, petmite us to exer-
cise the privilege of free speech, and ought
not to take exception to advice which is un-
questionably in the interest of " the peo-
ple." A proposition to facilitate the end
sought to be gained by a revival of the in-
come tax is very different from a wicked
protest against such a tax. We do not find
fanlt -with the pig-yoke which is placed
upon our necks, nor do we even hint at a
reluctance to -wear it We merely point
out tiiat it is not worth while to paint and
fpXd it, and that to make .it plain and inex-
pensive -will not render it any less effective.
So long as we most wear it, let ns wear it
frankly and openly, and let the West spare
us the mockery of wrapping it -witii tinsel

o'clock this morning, Senator Bobertson. President
pro tem., in the chair- There was a toll attendance
of four Senators, derk 'Vrooman. and the stout and

'decided the resolntion to be out of order. The Senate
then adjourned, aad took the 7:40 train for Uon-

The House met at the oscal hour and read through
the rezular order of bnslness. The Ballroad Com-

the City and State. He was bora at Biwl—tiei
May 8, 1826, and came to tUa Oty
with bia fistber's famQy when 10 yean at
ace. His early education was reeaivad at itte cnn-
mar-eekool of the Univenity, at tbe Wheat iheal
(S. J.) Academy, and at tbe Kew-Engtaat SwaV
nary. In Pittsfield, Mass- Be entered the Kew-
York Univer^ty, and graduated at tha am
of 20. He then began the study ot law ia Uu
offlee ot hia elder brother, aad later with R
M. aad E. H- Blatetaford, Judge -WiUiam Keaa,
aad Judge Henry E. Daviea. He was admitted
to the Bar in 1848 and liegan the practice of law tb«
following year. In 1851 he formed a partoenhli
with Samuel Clift. aad afterwalK -with laaae P. Mar
tin and hit brother, Augustus F. Smith. The laat
mentioned partnership was very successful financial-
ly, and the firm enjoyed a high reputation. He nub-
lisbedfotir volumes ot reports from 1654 to 1859.
Hewasappointedbr President Lincoln in 1861 United
States District Attomer for New- York, aad held the
position four years. He waa an exceedingly caer-
gttieotSeer, andhada waypt winning eaaea and a»
curing convictions. During bis four years' ttfm ha
procured six verdicts involving the death penaky,
one of which -was that of Xathanlel Gor-
don, master of tbe sUve^hlo Erie. He
was also of great service to the TTnion cause
In procuring the condemnation of the British steem-
ers PeterhofT, Springbok, .Stephen liart. and others,
which were carrying on an illicit trade with the
rebels thro ugh KasRau and Matamorss. He also ob.
tained tlie conviction of John W. Andrews, leader o<
the rioters iu July, 1863; of tbe negro HawldBa.
who killed a ship Captain, aiid Kohnstarom,
guilty of perpetratine larse frauds on the Govern-
ment. At the close of his term of office he retumed-
to private practice, in which he was eanally soi i eesf ill
UIs name had been mentioned in 1859 as a candidate
forthepost of Atiome? to the Corporation. Imt he
was not to reach that poet till some Tears
later. On the resignation in Xovember, 1872, of
Richard O'Gorman. who had been Corporatloa
Counsel through the early days ot the stnmle
against the Tweed Bing, Mayor A. Oakey Ball
appointed Mr. Smith to the offlee, t&onj^ ha
had all his life been a Bepublican. Thm
appointment provoked much criticism, aad It
-was openly charged that the Mayor had
been influenced by improper motives in tbt
appointment. At a meeting of the Committee of
Seventy, held on the evening of Dec. 11, 1872,
resolutions were adopted demanding tbe resignation
of Mr. Smith, and asserting that his continuance in
office would be held by the people to in-
dicate his corrupt collusion- In tbe schemes
of Mayor Hall, and bis intention to defy
honest public seutlment. Mr. Smith did not
resign, however, and continued in office undisturbed
through 2£ayor Havemeyer-s term of office and until
the advent of Mayor -Wlckham. Soon after Mnyor
-Wlekbam was installed in office. Jan. 4, 1875, he
presented a formidable array of charges against tbe
Corporation Counsel, alleging, first, the procure-
ment of special legislation at Albany forbidding the
Interference of the courts when collusion was sus-
pected between claimants aealQst the City and the
City's law officer ; and. secondlv. the eneourmgetnent
of the pernicious practice of sending eases to B^f-
erees, where they were too often decided against
the City. Mr. Smith replied te these cbuget in a <
document of gr«at length on Jan. 20. On the
28th of Febmary he addressed a sopplementary
answer end defense to Gov. TUden, which -wax evi-
dently no» eonvincine. for on the 9th of AngTwt,
1875, Gov. Tilden informed Mayor Wickham that the
charges preferred seemed to him safQcientto warrant
Mr. Smith's removal. He was acconiinely declared
removed, and the Mayor Immediately appointed aa
his successor Wilbur C. -Whitney, the preeent in-
cumbent.

WASHDiaTON, Wsdneadar, April 10, 1878.
"We «re thpon^h at last with the Door-
kaaper axoitement. It vmt a pleaauit dirertlsa
mmt except to poor Col. Polk, but it nied np
SB awful UBomit of time, eoosideriiig how
Banr ^important intemta of Qoremment and
tba people are saffering for the lack of atten-
tion and legislation. It was a Tain and fruitless
• oontMt, ezeept for the opportnmtles for oratory
t€ the high old sort which it afforded certain
hoaorable gentlemen. Mr. Butler was never
inoreeloqaent, though his lOTal sentiment was
k little overdone here and there, as in the fol-
lowing passage:
" So not send the sorrowiiui widows and weeping
yphims to their fatliexs* asd baibands' grares
■owed down with the thonaht their dear ones' vet-
eru eomzade is so soon, by the RepreseatatiTea of
tbeir OoTwrnmeiit, pnt iMhtnd one who led the
amies at the rebellion in tba bsttle* in which their
loved end nuramed ones were slain, husbands and
tsthers all now sleeping in quiet graves."
. I doubt whether the defeat of Oen. Shields
tor the offiee of Door-keeper will eauao a great
nm on cemeteries or give new grief to oar
soldiers' " sorrowing widows," if they still sor-
row, and "weeoing orphans," if they still
weep. They will probably think that "their
dear one's veteran comrade " made a fortunate
sseape, even though he shall fail of the Briga-
diership and the " good sslary." Mr. Butler,
master as he is of the grim humor of sarcasm,
' surpassed himself in his, ** Do not press us so
■ feat. We will get perhaps educated and concili-
ated up to it pretty soon. We may go a little
llowly Bt first Be > little tender with us as
yet. Do not hnrry us so."
In view of this latest victory of the Confed-
erate over the Union Army — in view of the
steady advance mads sU along the line, I would
not only enjoin upon Bepublicans to keep awake
and alert, but I would utter a little warning, in
the spirit of love, to Northern Democrats, many
of whom are such good fellows. The South,
iny friends, is too much for you, as it was for
your fathers. It will charm, then subjugate,
you by its masterful, magnificent spirit. It is
too shrewd, too fast, too pushing, too strong.
Once upon a time, says La Fontaine, a certain
portly, stately iron pot Invited ■ neighboring
aarthem pot to bear him company on a journey.
The latter prudently excused himself at first,
saying that he found himself better olf to stay
quietly in a eomsr by the fireside, or to move
about very gently, as he was of so frail a mate-
rial that a vary littls thing might shatter and
destroy him.
" O, I wHl take yon under my protection,"
■aid the chivalrous iron pot. " I am strong
on my three legs, stout and warlike, you know.
If any danger menaces you, I will stand
between yon and all harm — taking the shocks
and the blows myselt" This magnanimous
offer persosded the poor pat d» ttm, and he
set out with his gallant champion. Side by side
they trotted off on their three feet apiece, "dopin
dooanf," so close that they knocked against
each other with the least jar. Of course, the
weaker vessel suffered, till at last in descend-
ing a stony hill, he was quite knocked to pieces
by his aristocratic cofl^xi^noM d€ voyage. Moral ;
Let us only associate with our equals, if we do not
wish to incur the fate of one of the«e pots.
"The/urtA«r bearing of thatobservation lies in
the application of it." But if the Northern
Democracy in the House is taking a perilous
trot with the Sontbem, together they too often
drive before them or off the course the Bepub-
Uean minority. They have done it even in this
struggle over Door.keepers, during which some
of our men seemed to stand up so sturdily for
their^principles and to be manufacturing pollti-
eal capital hand over hand. It is plain enough
to me, a calm lookeron, that they were regular-
ly dragooned at last by the Confederate leaders
—Southern and Northern — ^taken in and done
(or by the cunning test question, the clever
trick entitled, "A bill authorizing the President
of the United States to appoint James Shields,
of Uissonri, a Brlgadler<3eneral in the United
States Army, on the retired list."
The mistake, as I see the matter, was in not
putting forward 'a BepubUean candidate, a
straight-out BepubUean. a Union soldier, a good
and true man, and then fighting it out on that
Une. Oh. if only our men had the drill and
discipline which nsed to mark the Democratic
minority and which kept them together, and
made them a power when most without power.
I was -"—'».< to see how they walked one after
another, or rather in a block, into the snare so
eonningly set for them. I was grieved to see
Gen. Butler meekly fold his hands on his breast
and resignedly go np, "hoist by his own
petard."
It was dap-trap for clap-trao, a piece of par-
tisan chicanery which I marvel to see imposing
npon any BepubUean of sense and true manliness.
Gen. Shields, who his friends averred had not
asked for the position of Door-keeper, and who
b evidently not fitted for It, should have had
just what he did ask for— an increase of pen-
sion. That is aU that can be given to him, in
these terrible hard times, without doing iujns-
tioe to other eminent Union soldiers — as brave,
as deserving, and as poor as he is. The fact of
the nsed of the old hero has been dwelt upon
more than I should think would be quite agree-
able to a high-spirited Irish soldier and gentle-
man, who has seen betterdays, in which it seems
he failed to make provision for the rainy day
whieh may same to the most sunshiny and illus-
trionsUfe. He was proud and self-respecting
whan I knew him. He wss also a good Prench
■eholar, and must have read the sentiment, so
lenibly true—" PuifmU n'ta pea vice, mots ettt
WMSq&M i* IttkUrU." Bepresentative Cterk—
QenanI Ibth^ Confederate service^wrung our
hearts by an aoeount he gave of poor bfalelds at
home in HIaonil "He says when he went to
visit him, he found his oldfoeman, nowf^end
ssd brother ih the bonds of Democracy, at
work in the field, "bare-footed, following a'
sorry-Ia«Aingmule hitched to a sorrier plow."
Prebabtyhs looked sorriest of aU. being bare-
footed. That was a totich beyond Cindnnatua
I try in vain to picture to myself the gaUant
gbialda, whom Iremember as something of a
fady's man, neat and elegant of attire, now ae-
tawy going about barefooted. It cannot be
dcnisd ordonbted that Gen. Clark's Uttle
bin te not only a sop to the Irish Cerberus, but
the loaf of charity for our futon Brigadier,
ahoeleas and atocUnf^esa, but " not totally
iialpless." If It is true, as Mr. Crittenden ele-
■nudy said, that the RepubUcans would have
■MB rae brave old man " doubly damned " be-
fore they would have voted for him, had they
haMM nmjority in the House, it is also true
^A stsn^I>emoeiat ss he was. the Democrats
wonld never have proposed him. He fought
on tba wrong side during the late war, and
Heziean services count for but Uttle except at
tha South. It ia quite as true that but for the
ehaoee of raaUsg political capital and eheel^
mating Butler, they would never have proposed
an4 piesaedvo extraordinary and irregolaran act
as ast which they rushed through the House.

bow he was working in Missouri, barefoot^ —
another how he was earning a precarious living
by lecturing in New-England— my heart mSlted
for my old friend. I don't know much about
plowing bare-footed, but I do understand this
lecture business. Then I said to myself -wlo
would beliere tnat these tender hearted Kentl&-
men, who make so free of Government money,
in the way ot a grand gratuity, could ever be
so hud and merciless in the way of withhold-
ing, and paring down appropriations, cutting
down salaries and necessitating the turning out
on the cold world, without warning, of hun-
dreds of gxx>d loyal men and wonfeu.
As the Democratic Party comes into ^wer
we must expect stem and sanguinary do-
ings. The great Republican flock gath-
ered here will be scattered and peeled.
It is natural enoug:h, and they have
even Scripture authority for It : JSfcee .'
" Mine anger was kindled against the Shep-
herds, and I punished the eoats." BntMr.Mc-
MahoD, Democrat, from Ohio, said * true thing
— indeed, he said several awfully true things,
and said them well — but the trtiest of all was
his charge that the BepubUean Party had for a
long time back used the Union soldier as staple
for buncombe speeches, for patriotic gush and
lilfalutin Decoration Day oratory, without
really honoring his claims and honestly con-
sidering his interests — without heading him at
all when no special poUtical sdvantage was to be
gained by preferring him to the stay-at-home
patriot and the pot-house hero. I have not
found, of late, that Republican officials are less
severe, less hard and cruel, toward crippled
soldiers, and toward the widows and i-hildren of
soldiers, than toward any other olase of employes.
It has seemed to me that many a man
among them inflicts wanton pain and dis-
tress on those under him. as though, in
order to taste the choicest sweets of
authority, be must see somebody suffer
from it Some of them have certainly shown
themselves as heedless as the most unregene-
rste Democrats could be of the Divine injunc-
tions : " Execute true judgment aud show
mercy and compassion, every man to this
brother. Oppress not the widow nor the father-
less, the stranger, nor the IHM>r. and let none
of you imajtine evil against nis brother 'in his
heart" Thus came the word of the Lord unto
Zackerlah— not Zackeriah Chandler— ah, no ;
the Lord knows bis man.
I witnessed the swearing in of the new Door-
keeper, quondam Captain of cavalry in the
United States Army, and Brigadier-General in
the Confederate Army, late Pasha, Bashaw, Ba-
shi-Bazouk, or something, in the Army of the
Khedive of Egypt He looked all bis title4snd
dignities, and yet seemed strangely glad and
proud to be initiated into an office of so much
Siril and perplexity aud so littie distinction,
e says he knows little as yet about the duties
of the place, but be is strong on the oripbled
soldier question, on lexicons itfid Lindlay Mur-
L ray. He is a flue-looking man. able-bodlSd. and
'with a military carriage. He looks the South-
ern gentleman, and I could but wonder how he
had relished the disparaging luanner in which
several of his friends had, spoken of his
present office as a " menial pomon" unworthy
of the acceptance aof a brave Union soldier
Uae Gen. Sblelda He took the oath with proper
solemnity, yet it occurred to me that be should
have accompanied the act — as I once saw a
Chinese witneas do — ^by brsaking a piece of
china, a frail cup, or saucer. It may be he wiU
prove the right man for the place, and that all
will soon be lovely and quiet in that vexed and
disorderly sphere, but I suspect that Col. Polk,
or the hapless Fitzhueb, would ssv to him,
" Better dweU in the tents of the Khedive, than
be a Door.keeper in the House of the wicked."

The ilfth day of the national fifteen-ball pool
tonmsmsat opened yestsidsy afternoon at the
Unlon^qaanBUllsid Booms with a nuae bowses
Ffty sad Bsdolpbe, which resulted In an aasy vic-
tory for the forpier, who beat bis adversary by a
score of 11 to 2. They were followad by Sexton
and "Joe" Dion, the latter of whom won by a score
ot 11 to 6. A large number of persons assembled
to witnsaa the evening display, which opened with a
very cautiously -played match between "Sam" Kni^t
and Cyrllle Dion. Enl^t won tha lead, but Oyrllle
quickly scorad the game in ids own favor. Knight
won the sneeeeding three, and nearly scored th* fifth
gsmcby Dion's pocketing his owd baU just as be
was about to nisks " pool" Dion won, however,
amid applause, and also aeond the next
game, daring which he made some fine
position shota Both men played " safety"
in th* seventh gams, .which was won by
Dion on an unfortnnate " miss" by Knight whiehleft
many of th* "rlngera" in eaay position. In tha
ninth game Knight assayed a most dlBenlt " bank"
shot for a " cut" Into the side pocket. It missed by
a hair's - breadth, but waa wildly applauded
by the apeet&tors. Tha " miss" added the
game to Dion's seora Both men w«re now
becoming nervoas and played " safety" repeatedly.
Knight won the game. Half a do»n consecutive
"safety" shots were plsyed on both sides in the
eleventh game, wlilch was finally won, amid sreat
excitement, by Knight who also scored th* follow-
ing sama Dion wrested the fourteenth from lilm.
and won the fifteenth also on a most
anaeconntsble miss ot a "set up" by
Knight Dion's victory now seemed simply
a matter of time, bat Knight, by some very plnuy
play, made the match a tie at 10 games each, amid
tremendous applause aud cheering. Then began
what might he urmed the aalest ot " safety " games,
which was watched with the intensest Interest Dion
added it tu his string, thus closing one of theprettlsst
games ot the tonmament with the following score :
Dion— 1, O, O. O. 1, 1, 1. 1. 1, O, 1, O, 0, 1,
1, O, O. 1, O, O, 1—11.
Knight— O, 1. 1. 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0,
0. 1,1, 0, 1, 1, 0—10.
After some delay the second game of the evening
waa began between Slosson and Wahlstrom. Wshl-
atrom. In endeavoring to pocket a ball bonneed off
the table, and another delay enaued liefore It was re-
covered. The game was won rapidly by Wahlstrom
after the ball was found. The play on both
sides was rapid darini the next few games,
the "Swede" playing with his nsnal boldness and
great vigor. Toe samea alternated in each player's
favor until the seventh, when the "Swede," who
seems to play equally well with either hand, added
five ^mes In rapid Bucceasiou to his score. Dnr-
inc the twelfth game somebody said, "I'll
bet $10 to S20 that Slosson wins the
match." The remark, eridently Intended as
a tannt was spoken in a load voice, and the
"Swede," tumina to the speaker, said: "I'll take
you ap if yon will t>et. " Slosson diasuaded his over.
xealou* friend from closing, and the "Swede." hav-
ing gained his point of silencing the annov-
Ing auditor, played his best, and mads
a series of the most dlfllmlt shots with
a rapidity, ease, and aeeuraey that elicited
unbounded applause. The one-sided gamewaa finally
bronght to a close, amid great merriment th* score
standing aa foUows :
Wahlstrom— 1. 0, 1.0,1, O.L 1, 1, 1, 1. 1. 1, 1—11.
Slosson— 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0—3.
On Thnisday, the sames of the afternoon wet* be-
tween SloBSOD and Prey, the former winning, and be-
tween Clark Wilson and Sexton, the former of whom,
by some siiisular luck wrested a victory, from bis ad-
versary by a score of 11 to b. The first
game of the evening was between Cyrllle
Dion end Rndophe. which, after an Im-
pression gaining prevslpnce thst the mstch
was a "give away," was won bv Cyrilie by a aeote of
11 to 1. The ''Swede," Wahlitrom, then played
accatnst "Joe " Dion, and, as usual, came off with a
victory, his score beinz 11 to Joe's 6-
To-duy Joe Dion will play Clark Wilson, and Cy-
rilie Dion will play Sexton, while this evenlns Prey
will play Knight and Warble will play Wahlstrom.

Why ia It?
The truths of science and progressive thought
have always been compelled to batter down the bul-
warks of prejudice and disbelief, or remain forever
unknown. Why is it that neople are so reluctant to
receive facts that relate directly to the phenomena of
their own existence ? Astronomers, npon dlsoover-
1ns a star, assign It a place at once, and it is forever
flxed. The rule by which a mathematical problem Is
once solved becomes forever an axiom ; tint no mat-
ter how clearly tbe princlplea which govern health
and sickness be demonstrated, some refuse to believe.
Dr. Pubce's Favilv Msnicmss, which are now so
generally nsed and deservedly popular, were tn their
earlydays very reluctantly recalved by the people.
To-day, pr. Pierce's Golden Hsdical Discovert
has outrivaled the old'tlme Sarsaparillas, his Pel-
lets are In general use In place of the coarse, huge,
drastic pills formerly so much employed, while
the sales of his Dr. Saoe's CATABifla REiCBDt
and his Favobitb PRESCBXPtiON are enormons.
Where the akin is sallow and eovered with blotches
and pimples, or where there are scrofulons swell-
ings and affections a few bottles of his Goldes
Medical DidcovEBV will effect an entire cure. If
you feel duU, drowsy, deblliteted, have sallow color
of skin, or vello wish-brown spots on face or b^^y,
frequent headache or dlndnesst bad taste in mouth,
internal heat, or chills alternated with hot fiushes.

tite, and tonjarue coated, yon an suffering from Tor-
pid Liver, or "Biliounun," In many cases of
"Liver Oomptaint " only part of these symptoms are
experienced. As a remedy for all such cases, Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical DtacovERV hasnoeqt.al.
aa It effects xrarfeet cures, leaving the liver strength-
ened and healthy. Debilitated females who have un-

tions and weaknesses, can have gtiaranteed to- them
prompt and poritive relief hy unnx Dr. Piebce's

FKEIGBTS— A mo<lerate movement sraa reported to

was tonnage for Grain, chiefly for Danish and Italian
ports, (the Utter for distiUlnf Com and Philadelphia
loading.) The offerinffs of tonnaga suited to the Grain
trade snd for early use were eomparatirely limited, ea-
peclally for Philadelphia and Baltimore loading, and
ship-owners were Arm In their views. Tonuage for Pe-
troleum was in rather more reouest, but at low flgures
tor vcssoU Immediately available. Veiaela to arrire,
salted to this interest, were held above tbe views of ablp.
pers. sod sbove current quotations for tonnage alieaoy
at baud. Tonnage for Nav&l Stores attraetedrery little
attention In thy locsl market, and was much lesa sought
after at the Sohthem shipping porta. Vessels for BrieKs.
Coal, and Cement were In m<Merate requaat at about pre-
vious quotations. Berth freight interests sbowed leaa
aulcnation, as well in the Gntn and Pxovialon lines as

Mr. UlntTira acted as the spokeunjui. He satd that
the dntiea npon sogar, as proposed in thb new Tariff
bnUfalltoreprosaat the vtews of the angar trade.
They are exeeariTaly and •injuriously high, impo^ng
an nnreaaonable bnrden npon a leading branch of
eommerce and Indastry. which is now in an excep-
tionally depressed condition, as well as involving the
exaction of an increased and oneroos tax noon the
ronsumera of this essential article, while tea and
coffee, which are articles of kindred consnmptlon,
are left untaxed by the hil]* althon^ those engaged
in the trade in tnese articles admit that they are
able to bear a moderate duty. Another in-
•jnrions effect of such high duties consists in
the stimulus they afford to frauds upon the rev-
enue, through incorrect sampling, and consequently
incorrect classiflcatjon, involving a loss in revenue
to the Government and great injury to honest im-
porters, who cannot snccessfnlly contend with such
unfair competition. As to all angara not above No.
13 Dutch Bcandard in color, the proposed schedule
errs in adopting the polarlscopie test, and in dividing
such BosHT into broad claitses with large discrimina-
tion of daty between the classes. It is perfectly
easy to procure the drawing of the official samples
from snch portioua of tho packages of sugar tbnt
importations testing near the artifleinl tines of demsr-
kation establlthed by the bill shall appear by polari-
eeope test to belong to the lower elABsiflcation. to the
injury of the Government and of honest importers.
Mr. Mintum suggested that all refining sugars,
not above No. 13 i>uteh standard Tn color,
which form a distinct class by themselves and are
adapted only to the use of refiners, should come in
St a uniform daty without regard to color or test.
This, he sflid, wits the law for many years and did
not work inequitably as to commerce, while ii avoid-
ed all the qneattona of fraud that have arisen since
the law has made various classifications for this grade
of sugar, which qoeations and difficnlties, in the
sneaker'a opinion, would only be increased by the
adoption of the polariseope test, if the principle of
arbitrary classifications of this kind of sugars Is con-
tinued. Should, however, the polariseope test be
adopted, Mr. Mintnm respectfully- insisted that it
should be made thoroughly equitable, by providins
that the rate of dnty shall beproportlonatelyreduced
in the ratio of the i>ereentan ot polarization. Thus,
on smears not above Ko. 13 Ihiteh standard in color,
assuming that 2^9 ecnta per pound bethe rato fixed
for the bichest elaas — nomiaal polariseope test 100°
—the duty should be diminished 2^ eents per 100
pounds for each percentage of the polariseope test
Below the nominal standard. Sugars testing not
above 98° aliould pay 2 per cent, leas than the fixed
rato of 2^ eenta — say 9« 45 per 100 pounds ; those
testing 97°. 92 42^ per 100 {Krands, and so on, by
percentage upon the sugar actually contained in the
unportation. Sugar testing 90<^ would pay $2 25
per 100 pounds ; sugar tosting 85°. ^ 12^^ and
sugar testLoK 80°. $2, or 2 eenta per
pound, thus levyinff the duty in equit-
able proportion aeeoruns to the actual saccharme
valne of the sugar as detormlned by the
polariseope. Mr. Mintum argued that this would go
very far toward obviating the danger of fraud, as
the reduction of duty is so small as to do away with
the chief temptation to mislead the government
samplers, wbenas a difference of 30 cents per 100
pounds between gndea, as at present contemplated,
offers too sreat a temptation to importers. In con-
elnsion. Mr. Mintum aagseated the foUowing as a
proper phrMdog for the ^r and equitable applica-
tion of the^mriset^ teat, ahoula this latter sug-
gestion be adopted :
" Upon alt mgats, melado, Ac., not above No. 13
I>((tch standard in color, 2i«-100 of a cent per
pound, for each, hundredth part of crystallizaDle
sncar ooutalnedJther«zi as ascertained by test of
poiarization."
Secretary Sherman said in reply that he was glad
to meet tiia gentlemen and to tiston to their views,
which impressed him favorably; bat although head
of the Treasury I>epartment, the matter had now
passed beyond bis control into the hands of a com-
mittee of Congreas. He suggested that they em-
body their stotements and pl«is in a petition and
forward it to Oongreas. He thou^t that polariza-
tion in some form vrpnld undoubtedly be adopted.
Wliat the Oovemment wanted was a sunple taruf by
means of whlcb the revenue eould be effectually col-
leeted.
The delegation then withdrew. Subsequ«itiy a
meeting was held in Maitland. Phelpa ft Co.'s ofllee.
In Exehange-plaee. to diaensa what had best be done
tinder the Seeretary'a adviee, and an understanding
was arrived at, but those present refused to disclose
the partieulars until all the preliminaries have been
•ettfed.
At SeeretarySliarraan's request, Appraiser Ihitcher
and Gfneral-Appraiser Ketehum were sent for. and
an inforzosil eonversation took place abont matters
of routine connected with their departmentSi which
sre now subjeeta of eoirespondenee with the Treas-
ury Pepartment. Mr. August Belmont also called

12:30 p. M. His fiandfather. on his mother's side,
waa Major Oeoife Howard, <A the United States
Army. CoL Hlteheock eoounenced his military ca-
reer in January. 1861, when he enlisted in Comnany
F, Seventy-first Begiment. He served with hi^ com-
pany dnripg the three months campaign of that year,
at 'Washington and Bull Run. When the Ninth Beg
Sment waa organlsod, in 1864,Pw was^eleeted Oaptain
of Company C, bia rank dating from Pec 14
of that year. On May 29, 1870, he wss elected
Major. His first term of service, of seven years, waa
zvmarkable. I>uzlng that time he never missed a
drill, parade, or meeting of his company, and the
Stato MiUtary Aasoeiation recognized thU zeal. by
presenting the young Captain a medal commemorat-
ing bis serrieea. While he waa Captain of Company
O he took great interaat in hia command, and dls-
^oeed the other eompanies in the number of recruits
enrolled tn thait Mmpany. As a mark of esteem for
this service, be reeelved a handsome gold badge at a
regimental parade On Jan. 15, 1873, from Brevet
Brtg -<ten. John H. Wilcox, formerly Colonel of the
Ninth. During his term of service aa Ui^ortbe
feat Orange riot took place, in July. 1871. and Col.

on June 4, 1872, and proved a valuable
AMifltant to CoL Brain e, who sneeeeoed the lato CoL

Hifle practice was just becoming popular at that
time, and in 1974 the State MiUtIa commenced iu
aysiematie study in that direction. Lient.-CoL
Hitebeock appreciated the importance of rifle nrae-
tlce. and in February of that year he secured the co-
operation of the Board ot CHBccrs of his regiment
in onening a short-range «allery at the armory for
the uMof the members of the regiment. The range
was duly opened, and w»s given the title of the
"Hiteheoek" Bange, in honor of its founder. So

Henry A. Smaliey, Receiver of tbe partner-
ship assets of Bamberger & Hyams, Receiver of the
sssets of tbe National Capitol Life Insurance Com-
pany, Beeeiver of the New- York Street-cleaning As-
sociation, Receiver of the partnership assets of
Brown & "Wltherill, late Receiver of the Clairmont
Savings Bank, and Trustee of the New-York iSKar,
has been sought for diligently for the last six weeks,
but cannot be found by several persons who are ex-
tremely anxious to obtain sums held by him as Be-
eeiver, variously estimated at ftcom $6,000 to $30,-
000. Mr. Smalley was appointed Receiver In the
case of Xicopold Bambei^er sgniust Juel C. Hyams
by Judge Donobne. the complaint being made bf
Bamberger that his partner had received more than
a proportioh&to share of the income from stores and
tenements at No. 458 Broome-street. No. 52 Llspen-
ardstreet. No. 16 Walker-street, and No. 210 Delan-
cey-street. The appointment was made by Judge
Donobne on Jan. 4, 1877, and an order was made to
that effect. Mr. M. L Townsend, for the plain-
tiff in the suit, opposed the settlement of
the order, and asked that the Receiver should be re-
quired to give a bond and two sureties. On Jan. 12.
the day before this request was made. Judge Dono-
hue had approved the Receiver's' bond, with one
surety, understanding that the surety was a mer-
chant, and that he was perfectly good. Subsequent
events led to the disclosure of tbe fact that Henry
A. Smalley was. on Feb. 2. 1877, adjudged a bank-
rupt by the United States District Court for thfe
SoDthem District of New- York, upon petitions of
his father and some friends, and thnt the adjudica-
tion was made with his consent. The counsel for
BamberKer also found that the only surety on
SnuUley's bond was Thomas Winsor. a lawyer,
at No. 23 Park-row, in whose office Smalley
had desk room. It was a matter of great
surprise to counsel to discover also that the bond
had been approved, but that tbe surety had not qual-
ified, and that he was ineligible an a ^surety, under
the court rules, because he was an sttomey or coun-
selor. On July 12, 1877, Mr. Townsend called on
Mr. Winsor to ask hira abont the matter, and learned
from him that he could not and wonld not justify as
surety on 8malley's bond, and that he was not an
owner of real estate In New- York.
The different persons who were interested in SmaU-
ey*s movements did not become snrious about him un-
til about a week ac^o. It seems that an order wa^ issued

to pay Mr. George W. Parsons ^75 for services as
Remree in tbe Bamberger case. Mr. Parsons deliv-
ered a copy of this otaax to John F. Jockel, a mes-
senger, who began a search for Smalley He called
at toe office of the Star, where be was informed by
the person iu chargf^ that Smalley. although a Trus-
tee, bad not been at the office for several weeks, and
he was referred to the office of Marsh & Winsor.
Here he had not been seen, and it was understood
that he had gone to Wnshlngton six weeks before.
A letter sent to Smaltey's residence, a floor in ^e
Newport apartment-house, was answered by Smalley
on March 26. He stated he was quite un-
well, but that he would attend to the order
of Judge Lawrence as soon as he could
get to his office, which he expected to
do in two or three dsys. Jockel Called at the <Srar
office on the 2^h, when he was informed that
Smalley had been there on the 25tb. Several at-
tempts were made to see him at home, but to all in-
qulnes the anawer was given that he had not been at
home and hia wife did not know where he could be
found. Yestordav Mr. Townsend applied to Jai
Van Brunt for Smalley's removal as Receiver of the
partnership assets of Bamberser & Hyams, and sets
forth that he has collected about $5,000 which he
Ott^t to have paid out, but has retained, and that
the affairs of tbe firm were liadly embarrassed in
consequence. It Is expected that Judge Tan Brunt
will act upon the application to-day.
Smalley resigned his position as Beeeiver of the
Clairmont Savings Bank some time aro, and the
transfer of his papers to Clark Brooks, his successor.
was effeeted on March 6. Smalley's accounts have
not yet been passed upon by a Referee appointed to
examine * them, but it is believed that he has dU-
bursed about sill tbe moneys received while he Was
Beeeiver, and that no funds were misapplied. Mr.
John H. Strahan. counsel for Mr. Wltherill. in the'
Brown ft WitherUl matter, says that Smalley has re-
ceived about $20,000 of the assets of that Arm, but
has not paid it out. He is not alarmed about tbe
matter, and says be believes Mr. Smalley will ap-
pear and account for the money. Mr. Sewell, of
Sewell & Pierce, attorneys in the National Capitol
Life matter, said that be had endeavored to serve no-
tice upon SmtUley of his appointment as Receiver by
Judge Donobne. but had been unable to find him, and
he had not qualified. Smalley's brother was in tbe
City inquirlnK for tbe missing man on Thursday, and
called upon Sewell & Pierce for information. Mr. O.
W. West, one of tbe counsel in the New- York Street-
cleaning Association matter, said that Smaller had
qualified in that matter as Receiver, Mr. Richard
Kelly being his bondsmmau. He had received noth-
ing but papers in that case.
It is understood from friends of Smalley that he Is
a man of irregnJar habits, who spends little time at
home, and who has always been difficult to find
when he was wanted for business purposes. It is
reported that he was well acquainted with all tbe
Judges, and that the numerous favors he has received
from the courts are to be attributed, in great meas-
ure, to his iatimato friendship with John Kelly.
Smalley is one of three sons of the lato United States
Judge Smallev, of Burlington, Vt.. who is spid to
have left a large fortune. He has been connected
with the ^4ir for some time, and was jit one time
President of the association.
ANOTHER LARGE CUST03SS SEIZURE.
The seizure-room of the Custom-bouse was
again made resplendent yesterday aftomoon with
specimens of the' tasteful choosing of a wealthy and
noted modisto, but this time it was furniture, not
bonnets and dresses, that attracted an admiring
throng. Last month there arrived on the Alsatia, of
the White Star line, a number of articles of the kind
mentioned, which were deliveted free of dnty to
Mrs. Sarah £. Hartley, the consignee, a fashionable
milliner and dress-maker, doing business at No. 947
^oadwav, she having made oath that she had used
them abroad for more than a year. Special Treasury
Agent Brackett subsequently learned that Mrs.
Hartley did not leave this City for Europe untU about
last Christmas, and that shn returned on a vessel
that arrived previous to the Alsatia. He also got
hold of the invoice, showinz that the goods )iad been
purchased at a well-known magagin in Parts In the
mterval. Yssterday, accordingly, accompanied by
Ofllder'Jaekson, he went to 3ir8. Hartley's residence.
No. 117 East Sixty-fourth-strcet, and seized the nrti-
eles. There are a sofa aiid eiebt chairs — a full set —
with richly carved and gilded frames covered with
brocatel of a blue and crimson ground fiowered iu
whito ; an inlaid ebony and gilt eta^ere, with bronze
ornaments, and surmountedby an immense mirror,
with glass an inch thick ; a carved ebony easy chair,
embroidered on the seat and back in silk in rolora,
the central design on the back being a bust of Hahne-
mann, and that on the seat being a ducal roat of
arms; a curiously-carved cane-bottomed chair, said
to be 200 years old ; a costly antique clock and side
Tases of bla^ marble and silver gilt ; t nree sets of
hsavy crimson satin window curtains, with tassels,
three gilt cornices, with lamDrequins to matoh the
furniture before described ; three sets of bronze and
ent-glasa chandeliers, and an elegant china and gilt
earn basket. The invoice value of the lot is 4,500
francs, and tbe duties 35 per cent, ad vplorem. Mrs.
Harfiey says that the eoods came originally from a
-nobleman's house. She has a mania tor purchasing
odd or cnriofis articles of tbe sort, and these took her
fancy while abroad on business. As they were seo-
onu mvBd, she did not suppose they were dutiable.
Thesetwid hangings do not look as though they
had ever been used.

The Jndge of Inquisition. BAITEB.
On Kceipt of the disuatch. Mr. Sdiomaker,
through bTs lawyers, Salomon & Burke, of Wall-
street, caused the necessary complaint to be drawn
up and presented to United Btatos Commissioner
Kenneth J. White. Tbe complaint states the official
position of Mr. Coasul-Oeneral Schumaker, the fsets
stated in the aiM>ve dispatch, tbe extradition treaty
between the German Empire and the United States,
and prays for a warrant for the arrest of Stlleh.
Mr. White granted the warrant, and bad It placed In
the hands of Deputy United States Marshal Bernard
for execution. The ^ifomia, from tilasgow. whidi
arrived Thnrsday anemoon, was boarded at Quar^
antine. and no difficulty was found in discovering
Stilch among the passengers, among whom he was
known as Stein. His real name is Cad August
Stilch. Upon being searched » draft upon Gossler &
Co., of this City, for over $4,000, drawn by a Ham-
burg house, a passport, and the original commission
of appointment as Judge of the Circuit Court in the
Second Division of Griinberg, Silesii. rignedby the
Emperor William, and having attached the broad
seal of the German Emnire, were found among 'his
effects. The prisoner was ^ken before Mr. Cout
missioner "Whtte yestorday for examination. The
Constd was represented by Mr. Salomon. After the
complaint had been formally read to him, Stilch
offered to make a vblontary confession and return
to Germany by the next steamer. The fallowing Is
a translation of the confession :
" I have been a member of the Circuit Court In
Grunbenr. In the Second Division. In this capacity
I had tbe regulation pf eatatos in such district. In
one of these regulations it becnuie necessary to sell
the property In ord«r to divide the proceeds. For
that purpose a day wss flied. to wit, Nov. 19, 1877,
for the parties interested to appear. On this day,
when tbe parties appeared, a merchant, Bernhardt,
from (rroBEen. made the highest bid of a little over
21,000 marks. Of those interested in these xnattors
there were several piinors. In relation to these
minors it was necessary to obtain the consent of the
Guardians Court.. This consent was obtained in tbe
course of Jnnuary of this year. I communicated
this to the highest bidder. Mr. Bernhardt, and I
asked him to declare when he woul I be able to pay
the amount statod. After the receipt of this
declaration I fixed a day for the payment.
Mr. Bernhardt did not make his appearance
at tbe time fixed, find it was only in the aftor-
noon at 2 that I was adrised by the officer
of the court ihat Bernhardt was present in ths court-
room. I immediately repflired to tbe court-room,
and there received the largest portion of the pur-
chase money, and the balan''e he promised to send
soon to my dwellln;:. At this time the depository
for snch funds was closed, and for that reason I took
the money received hnme. In about two hours after-
ward a merchant by the nsme of Schwartz brought
me the balance of the money, and took from me a
private receipt. This money I should have paid over
to the proper authorities, but I r< taloed it for abont
8 or 14 days, and then went to America. I liave de-
frnyed several expenses out of the money, and with
the balance of atK>nt 18,000 marks I purchased a
draft on New- York from a banker named FUtan. In
Hamburg. The draft was drawn by Ix>uia Wolf,
upon GossTer & Co.. New-York, for over ^4.000.
]}a}able to tbe order of Paul Stoln. a name which I
assumed. The draft w»s taken from me yesterday
upon my arrest, and I now desire thst this draft be
delivered to the German Consul in New-York. I de-
sire toretam to GJermany voluntarily, and I would
have returned from Glasgow if I had had the monev
in cash. I desire to return by the steamer to-
morrow."
The prisoner was remanded to Ludlow-Street Jail,
and will be put on board the German mail steamer
this morning.

MEDIATION— THE POSITION' OP ROtJMANLA.
LosDOK, April 13.— At St Petersburg
the opinion regarding the Gortschakoff
rirctilar is much divided. Some consider
it a complete political programme, full
of sound common sense, and worthy of
a great power; others regard it as empty and
colorless, and nothing but a formal refuta-
tion of Lord Salisbury's accusations. Some
think it is Russia's last word; others be-
lieve it is the introduction to negotiations
on a new ground. It has greatly displeased
'-hose who wish the Go^'ernraer.t to nail their
colors to the mast and risk all, rather than
make the slightest concession.
Opinion at Berlin continues skeptical
about the success of the negotiations.
The A'orddeufsehe Zeiiung yesterday, re-
ferring to Germany's mediation, said,
" The joint appeal of England and Russia
/or the good ofBees of Gerraaoy could have a
meanin; only if the parties were willing
to make such concessions as would put
out of the question the possibility of
either party challenging the other.*' This seems
to indicate that no agreement has yet been
reached, and that Germany is doubtful about
the sincerity of the desire for an understanding
ou one part or the other.
M. Bratiano, the Roumanian Premier, re-
turned to Vienna on Thursday on his way to
Bucharest. He had an interview with Count
Andras'y and Herr Tl.sza. the latte • of whom
was up from Pesth atiending the Council.
The tidings il. Bratiano brings from Berlin
".re not very encouraging. The conviction
there is that the Czar is bent on
having Bessarabia back, and that he
will take it, and that the best thing
the Roumanians can do is io make the best pos-
sible terms about the compen:iation they are to
receive. According to news from Bucharest,
the popular mind in Roumania seems scarcely
prepared to accept such advice, whatever may
be the disposition of Ministers.

from Ow Ovm CorrajxmOfiii,
PaSIS, Monday. April 1, 1878.
For II week past the Bourse has been
iteadily falling, and the solution of the Anglo-
£n»siaa dlf&cnlty by war becomes more and
nore probable. On Friday, the news of Lord
Derby's withdrawal from the Cabinet produced
a panic, from which every description of securi-
ties, oven those least likely to be affected by any-
thing except home troubles, suifered, and al-
though the report, on Saturday, that the new
Hinister of Foreign Affairs would be the con-
ciliating Lord Salisbury, brought about a partial
rally, public confidence has not revived, par-
ticularly as it was noticed that stock operations
at Berlin and Vienna did not follow th« lead
given by l>ondon and Paris speculators, and
sonnsued at the lowest figures of the month.
Without any doubt, the situation has become
Infinitely more grave. The two rival powers
•^ are in presence. The British ironclads
are moored within a few oii]«i of the
BassiAtt battalions, and puKio apprehen-
sions of a possible coliaioa, if pflrhaps
premature, are justifiable. The treaty of San
btefaoo has made Bassis's position very delicate,
iler action, against any otter nation than
Turkey would have made much less impression,
Irat it is precisely the peculiar situation of the
latter a* regards Europe which has excited the
opposition of some of the Western Cabinets,
and has caused the Busso-Turkish convention
to be appreciated so differently at London and
,t St. Petersburg. It is, indeed, no longer a
oueetion of form, but of basis, and involves the
entire Oriental problem The division of the
Ottoman Empire into four fragments is a
mere prelude to its total dissolution and to the
labatltution of Buasian for British influence in
the East The popuUtions of those countries
si« already convinced that the Russian bear
i, mom powerful than the British
Hon. What wlU their opinion be when
they see theclanses of the treaty executed, under
the superintendence of the Russian Army? It
U this perspectiTe which has induced the Bnt-
Uh Cabinet to return to its tr«litional policy o£
BHintaininc the Ottoman Empire in Its integri-
tr until some better eomhination eonld be
S™t.» be put iDit.pl.ee. At the outbreak uf
^^iiate,. LOTd Derby thougM to have »fe-
• iff'" I ••iiiiiVifi''ii'i*f"iii'iiiiiiii
tsreststo Bnsran interests, hut be neglected
the rules or diplomatic foresight, which avoid
t IO great precision in the determination of possi-
ble future action. His dispatch of the 6th of
Mav. 1877, indicating, in detail, what he con-
sidered to be the interests of the United King-
dom, was thought to be a masterpiece of State
craft, and it is on this shoal that he has strand-
ed. Not one stipulation of the San Stefano
treaty openly wrongs any one of the conditions
specified by the chief of the Foreign Office, so
tliatif^aa exceedingly difficult for him to op-
pose any serious argument to its execution.
Beaconsfleld alone estimated the situation cor-
rectly, and, as earlv ai his speech at the Lord
Mayor's banquet, in Nov^-mber, 1876, announced
thatthe true pDlicy of England must be based
upon the validity oE the treaties of 1856 and
1871. Here, then, we have the cause of the
new attitude taken up by the Cabinet of St.
James*. According t-j Russia, the old treaties
having becoming obsolete, ber ' arrangements
with Turkey have a definite character, suscepti-
ble of modification so far only as they (nay in-
terfere with what tbe unanimity of the European
powers shall recognize to be European interests,
a term always vague and liable to controversy,
particularly when, as now, the theory of joint
responsibility among the powers has lost the
majority of its ancient partisans. The British
Cabinet, fearing that its own special' interests
may be swamped in some indulgent interpreta-
tion of what maylw judged best for Europe, has
elected to take its stand on the more positive
basis of the treaties of Paris and London, and
has refused to participate in any congress, ex-
cept upon the condition that the totality of the
San Stefano convention shall be presented for
consideration, and amendment if necessary. Ac-
cording to the Russian view, the new treaty will
remain iu force, even should one or all of the
other powers refuse their adhesion. According
to the intentions of England, this refusal would
render it null and void, and will leave the treaty
of 1856 in its entirety, signed as it was by the
wilenipoteatiaries of the seven great powers of
Europe.
Tbe divergence is great, and the probabilities
of a compromise are daily lessening, although,
so long as the cannon has not spoken out, there
remains a hope that some solution may be
found which will render possible the meeting of
a congress, if not immediately, at least at some
future day. Logically, England is right, but
Ku^ia has the doctrine of "accomplished
facts " in her favor, and it is a great deal to ex-
poLt much concessions after so many sacrifices.
.\notber point, which seems to be overlooked
gener.illy. is that the Russians do not. believe
that England means seriously to eo to war in
order to secure more advantageous terras to
the Sultan, and at St. Petersburg every
one is convinced that the British Govern-
ment only seeks the complete dismemberiuent
of the Ottoman Empire, in order to obtain a
good share of booty for itself. Still, prepaira-
tions are being made to meet everv eventuality.
The engineers are placing the Black Sea coast
in a state of defense, and are working activrly
in the Kicolaiew arsenals, at the construction
of submarine vessels of a new model, while
analogous measures are noticed along the Bal-
tic and particularly at Helsinrfors, where the
Twenty-second Division of lue Army, now
placed on a war footing, will replace the Guard
Regiments, who have been recalled to St.
Petersburg.
The war, should it come, wijl be long and
slow. England is not in a position either to
beat Russian ariutes on the battle-field or to
take Russian fortresses, i ut she can keep
Russia in a chronic state of uneasiness as to the
security of a p isition which, constantly jaop
apdi.":fcKi. will tinally becouie nntenalile. Her
strategy will be to wear out Russia- in men and
money by a war which, without exposing her-
self to any serious 1o;.scf. sue can prolong &»
long as may be necessary to ruin her enemy.
.\s Prince ijismarck has wittily observed, "'it
v.-ill be a duel between a whale and an ele-
phant,''and it i-* difBculC to see how adversa^
riea so dissimilar can get at eacn other. To
eontinoe the metap'nor, I will venture to remark
that the whale can considerably bother his ad-
versary, who \rill Oe forced to remain inert,
hut in "arms, on Irrra firma. whore, according
to all the dispatches from the Ea.st, he is
already suffering terribly from typhus and
other epidemics. The warm season is approach-
ing, and Russia will be obliged to concentrate at
certain poin ts large masses of troops, who cannot
sojourn there indefinitely, nor with impunity.
Thanks to the supremacy of the British Navy,
the whole Rusirian coast will be threatened, and
to guard against expeditions whose objective
will always be uncertain, considerable forces
must be kept ready. So far as the loss of men
is concerned, Russia has nothing to fear. She
can always till up the gaps in berregimenta, but
will she always have sufficient money, or sufii-
cent credit to compensate for her financial
losses 1 This is Russia's weak point, and Eng-
land's strong point, and in this consideration
lies the best" cliance of an eventtial compro-
mise. England counts upon time as a powerful
ally, and it is ea ly to foieiie that she will be in
no hurry to declare war. She will not take the
first step, but will give Russia every chance to
find a casta btlli. According to recent news,
the Turks have been induced by Rus.sia to de-
mand the withdrawal of the British fleet from
the Marmora, and have received as an answer
that Admiral Hornby would leave his anchor-
age as soon as The Russians should evacuate
the vicinity of Constantinople, but not beJore.
This demand will probably be renewed, with a
repetition of the same reply, and sooner or
Uter this incident will bring about a definite
rupture.
'i'he first act of tbe drama will be the estab-
lishment of the English at Galllpoli, and the
occupitiun of the Turkish capital by Grand
Duke Nicholas.' The latter is not far from Bon-
lair, but, with bisenemv's vessel'son either side
of the narrow peninsula of Gallipoli, he will
scarcely risk an attemptagainst a position which
he could not continue to hold. Along the Bos-
phorus he will be more advantageously placed,
out even nere there will be tl j constant danger
of a disembarkation to tbe west, and of a bom-
bardment of Constantinople by the fieet and
from the forts on the Asiatic side. Again,
should the pas-sage into the Black Sea be forced,
and British vessels be able to act on the Ru-f^sian
lines of communication, the consequences will
be very serious. Boorg.is and Varna may be
taken, and In that case the Russians will be en-
tirely isolated from their base, while their most
fertile provinces, and most active arsenals and
dock-yards, will be at the mercy of the enemy.
Such will probably be the opening military
even iC, succeeding each other with startling
rapidity, but these advantages once gained,
there will be a temporary apparent lull in the
storm, and, for the reasons already given. Eng-
land will leave time to do his work of exbaustion.
And what barm can the elephant do to the
whale I At first sight one is tempted to say
none; but is India entirely loyal to her Empress,
and will not Russia attempt something iu that
direction i The European press ridicules the
idea, and asserts that England has no fear of
any such eveutuality except it may be in the far
distant future, for will not her enemy be
finished up in Europe before she can think
seriously of Asia ) it is argued that such an
expedition would demand forces needed else-
where, would '.'©quire time and preparations
But who can tell if that preparation has not
been already maie ? Russia's statesmen are not
in the habit of acting like a bull in a chtnushop.
They must have long fore-ieen the probabilities
of an eventual conflict with England, and, al-
though the Russian newspapers deny the re-
port, it is more than likely that allies have
been secured among tbe Mohammedan popula.
tion within the limits and along the frontiers of
the Indian Empire, who only await the signal
to rise against those whom they have ever con-
si'ieied as usurpers and foemen. Whether the
Mussulman will revolt or not will depend upon
the attitude of Turkey, bnt that the natives are
disaffected to British rule is evident from Lord
Lytton's action against tbe native press, sus-
pended for its denunciations of British supine-
ness in the Turkish question, and if the com-
mander of the faithful should next appear in
tbe quality of an ally of the Czar, it will not
need the presence of a Russian expeditionary
Army to make the situation of British infiu-
enee'in Eisdostan extremely critical.

JANUARY — PROVISIONS TTHICH THE NEW

LEGAL TENDERS TO BE MAINTAINED IN
CIRCULATION.
Special Ditpatch to Ute Xew-Tork Time*.
"Washington, April 13. — The members of
the Senate Committee on Finance are almost
nnanimously of the opinion that a bill will be
agreed upon hj that committee at its meeting
oa Taesday next which will be acceptable to
tbe moderate men in both houses, and
generally acceptable to the business men
of the country. Secretary Sherman's success
in New-York in disposing of $100,000,000 of
41-2 per cent, bonds, and the appreciation of
lepal tenders to within one-quarter of a cent of
gold, has convinced many of the opponents of
resumption that no legislation hostile to re-
sumption on tne 1st day of January next can
now be attempted. The members of the Sen-
ate Committee, with perhaps one or two
exceptions, agree that the House bill to
repeal the Resumption act, which is now being
considered by the committee, is dead and be-
yond all hope of resurrection. The committee
have not formally decided upon the features of
the bill, which may be completed on Tuesday,
but upon one point they are almost unanimous,
and that is not to report the House bill or any
other proposition looking to repeaL This much,
at least, may be regarded as fixed. Conversation
with members of the committee indicate that
the bill which will be reported will contain these
features :
First — liC!^! tenders shall be accepted at their
face value for Customs duties after July 1. -
Second — Authorizing the Secretary of the
Treasury to sell funding bondsfor legal tendnrs.
^hird — Repealing so much of the Resumption
act as requires tbe retirement and cancellation
of 80 per cent, of Ic^^l tenders for additional
circulation issued to national b«nks.
Fourth — Fixing tbe amount of legal tenders
to be maintained in circulation, and prohibiting
tbe Secretary of the Treasury from retiring or
hoarding for any purposes whatever -any portion
of the amount of legal tenders so established.
Upon the first and second propositions there
seems to be considerable unanimity in the com-
mittee, but upon the third and fourth there is
great diversity of opinion. Messrs. Morrill,
Dawes, Bayard, and Kernan are regarded as
opposed to repealing the 80 per cent clause of
tbe Resumption Act, and, of course, will favor
placing the volune of legal tenders to be main-
tained in circulation at tha lowest possible
amount. Messrs. Fetry, Jones, of Nevada ;
Wallace, and Voorhees are said to favor the
third proposition, and while they are united ou
the fourth as a general proposition, are divided
as to the limit to be placed on the amoant of
circu'ation to be maintained, the amount fav-
ored by these gentlemen respectively ranging
from $350,000,000 to «!400.(K)0,000. Sena-
tor Wallace believes the business interests of
the countiy require the volume of legal ten-
ders to be maintained at 9380.000.000, but
thinks it is probable $350,000,000 will be
agreed upon, which is over $2,000,000 in
excess of the amount outstandin*; on April 1.
It is not iraprobuble; however, should
the fourth proposition be adopted, that the
four Senators first named — ^31orril), Dawes,
Bayard, and Kernan — may succeed in having
the amount fixed mt a sum beluw the lowest
figures above named, and it is very certain they
will oppose any sum in excess of $300,000.-
000. Should that sum be agreed upon, tbe
present system of retiring legal tenders under
the 80 per cent, clause of the Resumption act
could bo continued until the amount outstand-
ing shall be reduced to $300,000,000.
It is believed an effort wilt be made to sub-
stitute the House Repeal bill for any measure
that may be reported by the Finance Commit-
tee to the Senate, bnt such an effort will receive
very little support, and those members of the
committee who were earnestly in favor of re-
peal a short time ago say that it cannot succeed.
CAUCUS OF DEMOCRATIC SENATORS.
Special Dispatch to tJie yew- York Tirn^M,
Washington, April 13. — The Democratic
Senators met in caucus to-day, but the attend-
ance was very light and nothing of special in-
terest or importance was done. Tbe general
financial condition of the country, and the
course to be pursued with reference to legisla-
tion pending and to be introduced in Congress,
was briefly discussed. The general sentiment
was against passing any but necessary legisla-
tion, and a desire was expressed, in view of the
importance of the coming political campaign in
the several States, to secure final adjournment
at a day not later than June 15. After instruct-
ing the Executive Committee, consisting of
Senators Wallace, Ransom, McDonald, Eaton,
and Cockrell, to consult with tbe Executive
Committee of the House caucus in regard to the
general situation and the policy to be pursued,
'.he meeting, adjourned.

Tbe.Department of State has not yet received
official intelligence of the recognition of
the Diaz Government by Minister Foster.
There ii no doubt however, of that
fact, as the instructions to that gentleman
on retnminfc to Mexico aathorfzed him to do so,
sbonld he find a proper condition of affairs to
warrant such action, and besides, full credence is
giren to the telegram to Mr. Znmseona. the Mexi-
can 1% presentative here, received lest night, inform-
ing him of the occurrence. The reason for recog-
nizing tbe Diaz Government are that it has shown a
disposition to arrange all mntters In dis-
pnte between the two Oovemments, and
eiven evidence of Its earnestness in that direction,
having, among other thing*, sent Federal troops to
the frontier to nrenerve the peace, tons sapplanting
the inefficient MiUtis. Consequenlly. no miiis have
occurred on the Rio Grande for tbe last three months
—certainly none of a serious character. Besides,
the Mexican GoTemnient has promptly paid,
as they became dne, * two installments nf
the Mexican indemnity, amounting to $600,000,
and recently the Mexican Government checked »n
attempt at Mstamoros to lev) forced loans on Amer-
ican ricizens. There have tJeen no other such at-
tempts for some months past, an I every precaution
will be t^ken to prt^vent them in future. Further,
the Mexican Government expresses a readiness to
enter upon negotUtions for the adjustment of all
qnestions in dispnte, and has been on its good be-
havior for at least one year.

London, April 13.— A meeting of 3,000
cotton operatives was held at Blackburn this
afternoon, to t4ke action on the masters' notice,
requiring acceptance of the 10 per cent, reduc-
tion of wages, which expires next Wednesday.
The operatives adopted a resolution declaring
that unless the masters took down the notice work
should immediately be stopped. A more mod-
erate motion of tbe Executive Committee was
rejected, the original resolution being adopted
by an overwhelming majority. Consequently,
there is a prospect of a strike on a large scale
next week, as the masters are apparently equally
unyielding. Besides themeeting above referred
to, avast outdoor meeting took place on Blakey
Moor, at which an uncompromising spirit of re-
sistance was exhibited.

Hartford, April 13. — At an adjourned meet-
ing of the Hartford policy-holders in the Charter Oak
Life Insurance Company this evening, nominations
were recommended for the Board of Directors which
is to be chosen at the meeting of all the policy-hold-
ers in this city next Thursday. The entire ticket
consisting of Judge Carpenter, of t he Supreme Court,
Calvin Day, George M. Bartholomew, of Hartford ;
Clapp Spooner. of Bridgeport ; Thomas Belknap,
Prof. Johu Brocklesby. of Hartford ; Benjamin
Douglass, ot Middlctown ; WilUan Faxoo. of

A. B. Redfield, of Hartford ; Stete Senator
C. A Bray, of Basthaven ; T. M. Maltbie, of Oranby.
and C. S- Davidson, of Hartford, was nominated.
Jnd^e Bllsha Johnson, a present Director in the
company, opposed the nomination of candidates
outside of Hartford by the the policy-holders of this
city, holding that the various sections interested
should brine forward their own candidates for the
Board of Management Messrs. H. R. Hayden and
Edward V. Preston, well-known insurance men,
were urgent for ibe nomination of members of the
present Board of Directors, ineiuding T. M. Allyn,
Elisba Johnson, and Rowland ^wift, but were
unable to secure favorable action by the meeting.
The ticket, with the except on of Messrs. iskilton
andMaU'ol^, contains no names of men thoroDirhly
experienced in insurance matters. But as the candi-
dates for Directors have not been formally put in tne
field, it is probable that several chsnKes will be made
at the policy -holders' m etina on Thursday. Jndge
Elisha Jo*in^on will have « strong support, and with-
out doubt will be elected a member of the board. Tbe
present officers are busily engaged in preparing a state-
ment of tbe condition of the company, to be presented
at the next meetine. The appraisals of property will
not differ materially from the estimates made at the
time Gov. Jewell assumed the management of the
iXLsiitntion. and it ts thought that at tbe lowest valu-
ation the assets will considerably exceed the mini-
mam allowed by law.

CAMBRIDGE'S CRE W EASIL Y BE A TEN
THIRTY-FIFTH REGULAR CONTEST BETWEEN
THE DARK AND LIGHT BLUES FROM
PUTNEY TO MORTLAKEz— AN EASY VIC-
TORY FOR THE WINNING EIGHT- THE
PRINCE OP WALES AND PRESS REPRE-
SENTATIVES WATCHING THE RACE UNDER
DISADVANTAGES.
London, April 13.— Tbe thirty-fifth boat
race between crews representing the Oxford and
Cambridge Universities took place this morning
on the River Thames over the usual course,
from Putney to Mortlake, about four ndiles and
two furlongs, and resulted in an easy victory
for the Oxford crew. This makes, in the 35
contests, 18 that have been scored by the Ox-
fords, while Cambridga has been successful in
16 races, and one — that of last year— resulted
in a dead heat Tbe morning broke hazy and
slightly overcast, but calm and mild. By 9:30
o'clock the sun was shining, and the weather
was perfect for the race. Tbe water was
smooth, and the crowd of spectators of the con-
test was great along the entire course, especially
in the neighborhood of the start and the finish.
The betting at Putney before the start was four
to one on Oxford, which was freely offered, but
with no takers, the result being considered cer-
tain. The time of the race, the weather, and
everything was favorable for a holiday turn-
out; but it is the general opinion, however,
that the crowd was not as large as the one that
witnessed last year's contest, as the interest was
greatly diminished by the general conviction
that the Oxford crew would win easily. .
A slight win*! arose just before the start, but
it was not sufficient to impede or distress the
boats. The swing of both crews was excellent. |
Cambridge had the Middlesex side of the river, j
and Oxford the Surrey side. About 9:45 i
o'clock there was a movement at the boat- j
houses, and at 9:53 the Oxford crew got into |
their boat oud paddled slowly down to the |
Aqueduct, where they turned and rowed a few j
strokes sharply up to the startiug-boat, j
moored opposite the steamboat pier. At 9:5S .
o'clock the Cambridge crew embarkeil in the '■
boat in which they won in lb7ij. They rowed
gently down to the '* Duke's Head," where it be-
came evident that something was amiss with '
one of their oars. They had to return to tbe
boat-house to change it This necessitated a
delayof some minutes, during whicli the Oxlord
boat was lying at its post on the Surrey side of
tha river. After having put matters right, tbe
Cambridge crew came back to the slartingplace.
and. taking tbe Middlesex Station, made ready
for tbe race. The umpire's boat and the Oxford
and Cambridge steamers were moored in an ex-
cellent position justabreastof the starting-boat.
Tbe press boat was kept astern and was ordered
to make fast to the Aqueduct, and in the rear of
the other three, as was the Victoria saloon
steamer, on which was the Prince of Wales.
At 10:12 o'clock.all was in readkiess for the
stirt. At 10:14 o'clock Mr. Edward Searle
gave the signal and a canital start was effected.
Cambridge was the first off, rowing a faster
stroke than their opponents. Thoy led at i^^P-
mons' yard, two furlongs from the startiag-
point by about ono third of a boat's length.
This advantag they continued to increase some-
what in the first reach, and off the Bishop's
Creek, one furlong from Simmons' yard, were
nearly half a length in front of the dark blues.
Along the concrete wall between the Bishop's
Creek and Craven Cottage, they slightly added
to their advantage, and just below tbe site of
tbe old half-mile post led by something lil^e
two-thirds of a length, as well as could be
judged from the press boat which was a long
way astern. This 5t«te of affairs was, ;o 8ome
extent. cOntri>mte<l to by Oxford's co.-ciwain
suddenly fetching his boat out wide, by which
he lost a Mttlf gro.ind. At tbe lower end of the
gankn of Cmven Cottage — wlK^re^tHe Ciitn-
briclfff? crew were rowing '3s strokes to the
minute — t.>:iford l»egan to come up fast, and
as tbt-y rounded tbe point were gaining upon
the leaders band over hand. At the Grass
"Wharf they had got upon even terms with Cam-
bridire, and the two crews rowed oar and oar
pastl^sebank ViHp.acroas tbe Crab Tree Reach,
the time in the Oxford boat being irregular on
the stroke side. Off the Cr.ib Tree, one mile
and two furlone:s from Putney, tbe Oxford
boat began to go to the front and having done
so quickly drew ahead, the Cambridge crew be-
coming unsteady and irregular a.-?, they were
headed. Off the Soai> Works, two furlongs
from the Crab Tree, Oxford had drawn clear,
and rowing right away from their opponents
led through Hammersmith Bridge, about one
mile and six furlongs trom the startinR-point,
by about two lengths in eight minutes and
eight seconds.
From this point the race requires no descrip-
tion, as, settling down welt together, as all
crews do when rowing a w^inning race with
their adversaries astern of them in full ^-iew,
he Oxford crew continued to increase the lead,
being half a dozen lengths ahead off Chiswick
Church, seven furlongs from 'Hammersmith
Bridge and, perhaps, ten lengths at Barnes
E^idge, seven furlongs further on. which was
reached in 18 minutes and 14 seconds, the
foul wind in Corner and Horse Reaches having
aided-tbem as much as it prejudiced Cambridge.
No ftirther change occurred, and Oxford, con-
tinuing a long way in front to the end, won
very easily by about 35 seconds in time, or by
many lengths, in. 23 minutes and 12 seconds.
Mr. Chitty was the umpire and ^Ir. E. H. Fair-
nie, an old Cambridge oar. judge. Following

PREFERRED AKD COMMON STOCK OP A MCOKG
COMPAXY— ALARGE STOCKHOLDER'S COM-
PLAINT— THE CASE BEFORE THE STATE
SUPREME COURT. ,
PouGHKEKPsiE. April 13.— The cases of
Hoyt and Kent ag^nst the Quicksilver Mining
Company came up again in the Supreme Court this
morning. There are over $2,000,000 Involved in
tbe suits, plaintiffs claiming that the compiny owes
tbe preferred stockholders seven years' dividends,
with interest. Mr. Kent nolds 2, 500 shares of the
preferred stock, amounting to $230,000, the capital
stock of the company being $10,000,000. In
1870, when tbe company was embarrassed, it
said to the stockholders, " Such of you
who can may par $5 on each share
held, and hnve your stock cbarEed to preferred
Btoctc, to be paid from year to year out of the net
earnings of the company, If tliare be any net earn-
ings." Of this preferred stock, Mr. Kent purchased
from time to time till he held $250,000 worth. He
then heard that an attempt was being made to wiiw
it out by resolution of the board, whereupon he ob-
tained aa injunction, and now asks Judge Barnard
for an accounting from the company on the stock he
holds. The proceedings this morning were confined
strictly to tbe taking of testimony.
The first witness sworn was George Li. Kent the
plaintiff. He testified in substance as follows: I
first lesmed of the objections to the validity of the
preferred stock after I purchased it in~ 1874 ;
first learned that the by-laws of the
company had been amended after the
first suit was commenced ; read the scrip
certificates of preferred stock prior to my first pur-
chase on the 11th of May, 1871; ou that day I
bought 200 shares ; on Oct 17. 1871. 500 shares ;
Dec 31, 1871. 400 shares; Jan, 5. 1872, 300
shsres; Jan. 20, 1872. 200 shares; Feb. 21, 1872.
100 shares; May 6, 1872, 200 shares; Jan. 27.
1874, 100 shares; February, 1874, 100 shares;
can't tell what I paid for it; think the first cost me
IB ; some cost me 53 or thereabouts ; saw the cer-
tificate at Boocock's office before I bought the stock :
he is DOW a Director of the company, but was then a
bioker; be gave me no Information ab4»ut it; had
nothing but general information in reeard to
the stock; made no examination of the
by-laws or ' charter of the company; the
stock was purchnsed as an advantageous one :
talked with William Kent about it : he may have
been interested with H. G. Bond, a Wall-street
broker; mv attention had been callea by William
Kent to tbe two classes of stock on tbe msrket, com-
mon and preferred ; fromdistinctlyreadingthecertifi-
cate and from information thus received, I purchased
the preferred stock; made no inquiry at the office of
the company in relation to the creation of the pre-
ferred stock; got an injunction suddenly to head off
afurtner issue of preferred stock ; heard of the stock-
holders'meeting of Feb. 28. 1874; commenced my
suit in Novemoer. 1874 ; may have heard that some
ftction had been taken to equalize the stockholders
from the net earnings ; was surprised at their action
in tryini; to create more preferred stock; never
heard the legality of the preferred stock
questioned up to the time I bought it :
had not heard of the action of and claims made by
tbe common stockholders before 1874 ; if I did, it
never affected my belief in the preference of the
preferred stock ; my trround of belief was that it
was issued in good faith by a respectable board of
stockholners, or else it was a swindle ; have held
500 shares of tbe common ; Thomss AUams. a
street broker, bnneht snd sold considerable for me :
the preferred stock stands me in an nverace of 40
per cent.: never had much faith in the common.
David Mahany, Secretary and Treasurer of the
Quicksilver Mining Company, was tbe next witness.
He produced a large ledger containine a record
of the stockholders' meeting on Feb. 2W. 1877.
Mr. Butler, of counsel for the common stockholders,
read from it, sliowins that at that meeting, after re-
marks by Charies Dana about preferred stock, a
resolurio'n was adopted authorizing the creattou of
farther pieferred stock- Witness then testified as
foliows : ■■ Fifty-six thousand nine hundred and two
shares wore represented at that meeting, but I can't
say < hat that number voted for the resolution, though
there was no dissent, and the resolution was unani-
mously adopted ; there is nothing in tbe record to
show how many ' preferred ' and how many 'com-
mon ' were re resented at that mectins. or in the
vote : there were 20 or 25 persons present holders
of iioth elassfts of stock."
Here counsel for Mr. Kent said, "That's ourcase."
PrMr. Butler rose and moved to dismiss the com-
plaint on the ground, first that the alle-
gations in it show upon their face that the
corporation had no power to make by-lsws, and
that acts making amendments are not binding upon
the company ; second, that Mr. Kent cannot main-
tain his action because he is the holder of both pre-
ferred and common stock, and the eviden e shows no
act'of omission on the part of any of the common
stockholders, and third, that it appears by the evi-
dence that the creation and issue of the certificate
of preferred stock is illegal and nnanthorized as a
coiporate act, and that no validity has been given for
the certificate by any act or omission by any of the
" common " stockholders. The motion to dis-
miss was denied, whereupon an exceprion
was taken. Judge Van Cott, on behalf of
tbe company, moved to strike out evidence
of record in the Supreme Court in tbe case of Kent
aeainst tbe Quicksilver Minim; Company, as incom-
petent and irrelevant. Also to dismiss the complaint
on the ground that plaintiff has made no case which
entitles him to any part of relief. The motion wa^
denied and exceptions taken. This closed the case
for the day, when an adjournment was taken to
some day in the latter part of the month.
THE EXHIBITION AT PARIi
ROW IN THE CANADIAN PARLIAMENT
THE MINISTRY OP QUEBEC — A LONG DISCUS-
SION OVER A RESOLUTION INTRODUCED
BY SIR JOHN A. MACDONALD — A DISOR-
DERLY GATHERING.
Ottawa, April 13. — ^The House of Coramoua
has been sitting since yesterday afternoon, dis-
cussing the reiiolntion introduced by Sir John
A- McDonald censoring the Ueutenant-tiovemor of
Quebec for dismissing his late Ministers. Sir John
delivered a long speech in support of the resolution,
and was followed by Hon. Mr. Mackenzie, who spoke
stronely against it The resolution reads as follows :
*' That the recent dismissal by the Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor of the Province of Quebec of his Ministry wa%
undet the circumstances, tmwise and subversive of
the position accorded to the advisers of the Crown
since the concession of the principle of responsible
government to the BritlshXorth American Colonies."
The ciscnssion closed at 6 o'clock to-nieht. being
the longest and most remarkable sittins since confed-
eration. At times during the debate the proceedings
in the House wore of the most disorderly character,
members sioginf!, dancinc, and making all sorts of
discordant noise*. The Speaker had much difficulty
in preserving order, and it was finally decided be-
tween tbe Premier and Sir John that a vote be taken
without further 'liscussion after the arrival of the
Inte trains on Monday night. Lady Dnfferin occu-
pied a seat on the floor of the Hotise a short time in
the afternoon, and. on leaving, the members rose to
their feet and sang " God Save the Queen," amid
thunders of.applause.

AN EX-PRIEST SENTENCED TO BE HANGED.
Fhilai>elphia, April 13.— Judge Mitchell
to-day overruled the motion for a new trial in the
case of Blasitu Plstoritis, the ex-priest convicted of
the murder of Isaac Jacquette iu Monteomety
County in 1875. Piatorins was first tried in Mont-
gomery County and convicted nf murder in the
first degree, from which decision an apnesl wss taken,
and, upon the ground that a fair trial could not be
obtained on account of relli^lous prejudice, the case
was removed to Phlladelpliia County for a new trial,
which resulted, some two weeks since, in a
second conviction. A motion for a new trial
was sgain made, which was to-day refused, and the
prisoner was sentenced to be hanced. Upon the an-
nouncement of the decision Pistorius arose excitedly
and accused his law^-ers of not having acted In good
faith, and said that If the Judge did not prant him a
new trial he would be a murderer of justice. His
counsel gave notice that the matter wottld be carried
to the Supreme Court.

.FVmn Our Own Oerretpondaa.
Fakis, Sunday, March 31^ 1878.
The Government is be^lzining at l&st to
realize that the Kxhlbition may not be m soo-
cess ; that there may be some truthin the sneer-
ing cbmparisona drawn by its poUtieal mdver-
aaries between the splendors of the Toileriea
under the imperial regime and their present
wretched parodies at the Elys^ whei« beauty
and fashion, distinction and elegance are oiUy
coni^icuoua hy their absence. It is »t last tak*
ing in the fact that the real zuoney-spending
visitors are not those who travel from mere
utilitarian motives, and that the vast majorilT
will have quite enough of two or three fati-
guing pilgrhnages through the immlnse aeries of
buildings on the Champ de Mars and the Tk>>
cadero, and will then fiit away to search for
amusement elsewhere, if they cannot find it in
Paris, In consequence, the Conscript and the
City Fathers have determined to show that tlie
pleasure of the multitude cau be catered to
quite as effectually by the sc&ntily-robedfrod-
dess in a Phrygian cap as by the more imposing
lady in ermine and a crown. So ttie fii^t au-
gust body have made an appropriation of 950,-
UOO francs for Ministerial dinners and recep-
tions, and the Municipality has decreed & graneh
fgte popvlairet which is to cost 500,000 franca
more. But of course, no one is satisfied.
Calcium lights on the Place de la Con-
corde and along the Champs Elysnes, torchlight
processions through the Bois de Botilogne, mtt-
minationa of the Cascade. Venetian lanterns in
the All^ des Acasias. and a grand display o£
fire-works on the heights of Autueii, before
which 25.000 people will be accommodated
with seats, alt to be enlivened by the moale o£
the Paris garrison, is a very nice programme in
its way, but how meanly will thia one per^
formanfse compare with the succession of
pageants of other times. Then, too, why
should so much money be given to^the Minis-
ters for their entertainments 1 The Gasette <Z«
iVance has made its calculation, and informs
the public that during the 2C weeks of the Ex-
hibition there can l>e but 52 official dinners, of
60 guests each at 25 francs a head — ^the regular
price paid to the contractors of these banquets
— ^making in all, including extras. 104,000
francs ; that the 26 balls, concerts, and recep-
tions will not cost more thaji 464.000 francs,
and concludes by inviting tax-payers to inqniro
where the382,0O0 francs balance will go. Who
is to pay the piper ? for the piper must be paid«
and ^ready, the original appropriation of 22i,-
000,000 being exhausted, the Chambers are
requested to vote a supplementary credit of
25,000,000. And all for what i to gratify tha
vanity of a political party, and throw dust la
the eyes of superficial observers by assum-
ing the appearance of a prosperity which,
does not exist In what condition will the Ex-
hibition open, and who will come to see it
in the midst of all the C-ontinent in flamen f
Nearly every crownetl head in Europe was hero
in 1867, but now, independent of mere con-
sideration of etiquettp, it is probable that mon-
archs in genend will have quite enough to do at
honm. and that even tbe Shah of Persia, who,
tante de tnteux, was to have been the great card
of the show, will adjourn his departure from
Iran until some less troublous times. However,
to compensate, in some measure, for the absence
of stars of the first magnitude, lesser constella-
tions have been sought for and announced with
much flourish of trumpet and* drum, and doubt-
less sight-seers will be becominsrly iiupressed by
the information that '■■ among the many princely
visitors, Sidi Abd-el-Kader ben Kouider and
Efiveral other great Arab chicffs will acconspany
iren. Cbanzy nom Algeria, bringing with them,
their coursers and their ^Umghi., graybonnds.
whose race is so highly esteemed that a
single specimen is worth 3,00O frMxca."
I will add that the aforesaid ralnable
animals have uniformly been beaten in
all equine and canine contests, when they have
encountered English race-horses and English,
dogs, and that from the aoclimatation aud adop-
tion of the "Arab steed,'' at the French breedinij
studs dates the decline and inferiority of tha
French cavalry. But then this boast h^s along
flowing mane, and a tail reaching to the ground*
and curves its neck nicely, snd with 8uc3i quali-
ties, all minor consideiations, such as the im-
propriety of mounting a trooper, who, with
arms and baggage weighs 186 pounds, on an
animal not standing 14 hands high, sink into
insignificance. " The pertonneX of this Atricaa
delegation is to encamp in the vicinity of the
Champ de Mars" — where, the public is at a loss
to know, unless it be in some of the side streets.
as there are no unoccupied lots within a mile of
that locality — "and it will give representations
of various episodes of the chase and of war,
execute Bedouin and Kabyle fantasias," &c
very much as the deputations of Blackfeet and
Sioux Indians used to do In the Eastern cities
of the United States, under the direction of P.
T. Bamum.
Should, however, the exotics be not quite up
to the mark or insufficiently numerous, it n
probable that Mr. Mver's acrobats, or the
icuyers of the Cirque Fernando, will be reqtti-
sitioned. with a host of supernumeraries from
theMouffetard quarter, belonging to tbe tribe of
tbe Beni-Mouf-Mouf, inst as they have been
already in the Algerian section, where, uncom-
fortably, if picturesquely, attired as '* children
of the desert," they have advantageously re-
placed the real ** children " In the installatioin
of colonial produce. The arrival of 50 notable
Chinese merchants has also been maide known,
but has produced no excitement as tbe heathen
ones have been very abundant In Paris of late
years ; nor do the Siamese and .Japanese pro-
voke more than a passing glance, particularly
since one of the newspapers professes to have
discovered that the ^ngiilar facility with which
these interesting foreigners have picked up
French argot and French habits is due not so
much to any peculiar talent for as&imiJation aa
to an accident of birth, and that about three -
fourths of tbe ** native '* workmen employed
in their respective departments have been
dressed up for the parts, but are in reality
indigenotis to the Faubourg St Antotne.
Even the Annamites have become objects ot
suspicion, in spite of their long finger-naila,
now asserted to be only posttches ; they have
not appeared in public since their offidal recep-
tion by the Marshal, and ill-natured people bint
that they have relired^to private lif*^ in order to
study the language of Annam under tbe direc-
tion of some member of the Institute, who
thinks he has mastered its stincture and pro-
ntmciation without a teacher. It is notewonhy
that no member of this establishment of sovokm
has ever succeeded in making himself under-
stood in any foreign dialect learned within its
walls, and, as was declared upon oath during a
recent lawsuit by one Tchang Yang Teho, an
eminent tea dealer in Rue Trouchet the Pro-
fessorof Chinese at the Sorbonne is utterly unin-
lellieible whenever he attempts the languaga
of the Celestial Empire.
Extreme industry is the order of the dayeit
the Trocadero. There will be no poetponemegit
in the date of opening, but it is donbtftil whethcz
everything will be in place before, at earUeat,
the 1st of June. So far. 636 railway wi^i^ons
loaded with merchandise of various sorts bav«
already arrived. Of theae 140 are from Eng-
land, and 100 from Belgium. Rtissia hi^s, as
yet sent only 40, but within the last few days
increased activity has been observed among bet
workmen, from which optimists argufi tlut
peace is certain. By the middle of April
we look for about 1,800 more wagon
loads, which will make in all 2^400, a
total exceeding In number that of 1867,
when, although Germaz;^, Mexipco, aod'
Turkey participated, there were but 2,000, of
which Germany contributed 400. Only ono
exhibitor has completed his installation. Mr.
Adams, in the ornamental pottery line, has his
wares ready to be looked at. and was rewarded
for his energy by a banquet from the workmen
and a civil speech from Mr. Krantz.the Chief
Commissioner. Mr. Colman. of starch and
mustard celebrity, hoped to have the honors of
first place, but his 90 cases still retaain nn-
f lacked, perhaps because their contents vers
ess interesting to the employes than the imita^
tion majolica and Capo di Monte of his anecesa-
ful competitor. One work of art too. has been
put up in the groimda. in tbe shape of a colossal, i

"Wealsoleam from tha Prssident that henego-

On March 13, fonr days after the Examiners had
completed the first draft of their work, this S60,-
000, together with 955.487, amounting to 9115,-
487, hu been drawn on so largely by depositors thut
when the Receiver took possession of the assets the
cash had dwindled to $15. 000. The inference which
is most naturally suggested by this exhibit is that
eertain parties In the confidence of the President re-
calved early Information of the probable collapse of
tbe bank, and withdrew their deposits btforo the
doors were closed by the State. The number of de-
positors is about 32.O00, the majority of whom have
nad to deprive themselves of many of the comforts
of life to save the amount of their deocsits.
" Onr inveetlgation has convinced us that the ac-
tion of the Attorney-General and Judge Westbrook
Sn the appointment of a Receiver was for the best
interests of tbe deoositors: that Hon. William F.
Russell, the present Receiver, Is well qualified for
the position which he holds, and is enlltled to the re-
spect and confidence of the depositors ; that the
•ecnrlty he has given is ample, and that he is de-
termined to avoid, in the settling np of the affairs of
this bank, the enormous counsel fees snd tbe other
expenses which have characterize the closing np of
many other savings banks in this City. Your com-
mittee earnestly recommend all depositors not to
listen for a moment to officious parties who may ad-
viie placing tbe affairs of the Sixpenny Savings
Bank in the hands of an Assignee in Bankruptcy,
like unto the Market Savings Bank, which failed
more than six years ago, and is Btlll unsettled.
" The Receiver informed us that he will declare a
flzst dividend of about 40 per cent. wit>iln 90 days
from date ; and that should real estate Increaae In
Talne, depositors will receive not less than 75 to 80
per eant. on all their deposits."
The report was signed by Rev. Washington Rod-
nan, Ctaanncey Stebblns, J. 0. J. Langbein, J. D.
Meagher, Morris F. Dowley. Chairman, and F. G.
Brill, Secretary. A motion for Ita adoption waa
opposed by a tall, gray-haired old man, who insisted
i^lhat ita eoDcluaion that the officers of the bank had
acted dishonestly was incorrect. He said he had
known President Miles for eight years, and was eon-
▼ineed that he was an honest man. He
added that he did not believe the bank waa
ouolvent when the Soperintendant of the
Banking Department closed it, vs that
it la now insolvent. He considered tbat the Bank
Examiners put too low valuations npon the proper-
ty mortgaged to the bank, and said he bad been as-
sored by lawyers that the SpofFord mortgages, which
had been denounced as worthless, were really as
good as tbe bank oCBcers had represented them to
be. He also asserted that if the same methods were
applied by Bank Examiners to the other banks of
tola City most oC them would be compelled to sna-
pend.
Mr. Stebblns stated the facts npon which the- com-
mittee had based its report, and Rev. Washington
Bodman, another member of tbe committee, declared
that he had carefully investigated tha affairs of the
bank, and was convinced thai the manner In which
the institution had been conduoCed was unprece-
dented in tbe annals of bank robbery in this 6tate.
The more he inquired, the darker grew the pros-
pect, and he felt that the concltulons set forth in the
report were stated much more mildly than they
mudit be.
Mr. Hogan proposed that a committee be apnotnted
to consult with the Attorney-General and the Dis-
iriet Attorney as to whether there were not snfBdent
{Toirads for the rrimtual prosecution of the ofllcers of
khebank.
A member of the eommlttee replied that the Dis-
kiiet Attomay had already been conanlted, and he
kad stated that proceedings egidnst officers of sus-
nended banJca must be Inatltuted by the State Bank
Dewrtment.
Tbe tall old man who had before declared his be-
lief that the Sixpenny Savings Bank was still sol-
vent, arose and said that It waa abstird to talk about
prosecuting the officers. He assured the depositors
that the officers did not fear prosecution,
aa they felt guiltless of wrong-doing. An-
other depositor said he eould not under-
stand why the officers should consider It
neeeewry to have eoimsel present at the meeting,
and a tbsd, evidently a Hibernian, cried out at the
lame time : "I saw the eentleman who last spoke in
a confab wid onid HUea this morning." The old gen
Ueman danied that he waa aeSmg aa counsel for the
otBoera, but said he had told one of them that he
would attend the meettng. He then withdrew from
Iberoom, followed by reqasets to explain how he
was ao intimate with the officers, and why he was ad-
mitted to the bank while other depositors were kept
ont. A depositor aald that when he called upon Pres-
ident Miles in hia office and asked for informa-
tion, the gentleman who had just left the meeting
waa preeent, and Mr. Miles referred the caller to
him, speaking of him as Ur. Aleott. An
old gentleman arose and said that Mr. Aleott
waa a elergyman, and an officer of the
Colonisation Society. After a great deal more
talk and many motions tbe report of the committee
waa adopted. It was exnlained by Messrs. Stebbins
and Dowley that proceedings against the officers of
tna bank could only be be^ when the Receiver
ahoold find In the books something definitely indi-
cating fraud. The fact that President Miles swore
to reports showing that the bank was s^vent, when
It w»e crippled, waa no proof that he did not hon-
estly believe in the estlmatea then placed npon the
mortgages, and conseqnently a eharge of perjnry
eoulTnotbe sustained a^i^st him. The former in-
vestigating committee was, npon motion, appointed
to keep themselves infonned of the work of tbe Re-
eeiwr, and. if powrible. to induce him to stwt the
lecal machinery for the punishment of the officers.
fl»e meetinff wastken adjourned until Saturday.

WASHnroroN, April 13.— Th© Senate Com-
mittee on Public Lands to-day resumed the Invesfi-
gatlon which has grown out of the memorial of Wil-
li^ MeOarrahan, praying the enactment of a law
to correct the record of his alleged patent for the
New-Iaria quicksilver mines in California. Q. £.
Stuxgos, onei of the clerks of the Interior Depart-
ment, was sworn, and identified sundry
records produced from the flies of
that department. Among them waa a
letter from Attorney-General Bates to the Acting
Secretary of the Interior, dated Maroh 12, 1863, re-
questing that the Commissioner of the General Land
Office be directed to refrain from issuing a j>at«it
for the Panoehe Grande Ranehe, as he [the Attorney-
General] intended to bring the case before the Su-
preme Court for review of the California Court's de-
cision, which confirmed the Gomez title. TTitness
also produced a book containing a letterpress copy
of the letter of Acting Secretary Otto addressed to
the Commissioner of the General Land Office, under
date of March 13, 1863, directing him to suspend
the Usnanee of a patent for the said ranehe until
further advised. Also a register containincr entries
that the Attorney-General's letter was received at
the Interior Department on the 13th of March, and
that a copy of it was sent to the Commissioner of the
General liand Office on March 26 of tbe same year.
James M. Armstrong, the present Chief of the
Private Ijand Claims Dlvlaion of tbe Interior Depart-
ment, was recalled by the counsel for the Kew-Idria
Company. He testified that he found on tha last
two parchment pages of the document which the
New-Idria Company claims as an original patent pre-
pared, but not signed, for McGarrahan, a number of
punctures, apparently made for the purpose of
spacing the lines ; the snaces between the llnea on
the last two pages — which McGarrahan claims have
been fraudulently substituted for pages bearing his
signature— were considerably wider than those of the
preceding pages, and the general texture of the
parchment of those two pages was heavier an^
stifter than that of most of the preceding pages, but
not more so than page 8 or than page 1, which con-
tains printed matter-
Mr. Klopper, Xiibrarian of the Attorney-General's
office, was recalled, and produced a book containing a
copy of the Attorney-General's letter of March 12,
recmesting the suspension of the issuance of a patent
to McGarrahan. It appears that this letter in the
record follows a letter on another subject that bears
date March 13.
Judge D. S. Wilson offered to introduce the evi-
dence given by Judge Jeremiah S. Blaek before the
House Judiciary Committee in reply to some
charges that have been made against him during this
Investigation. Senator McDonald remariied that
these charges did not cnt any figure in this
case, so far as he could see, for there
was no evidence that Jndge Black had any
employment from the Xewldria Company until long
after he [Judge Black] ceased to be Attorney-Gen-
eral, and there whs nothing that required explana-
tion from J udge Black : his taking a tee Bnbsequent
to the expiration of his term as Attorney-General
was not discreditable. Tbe Senator added that he
would have done so himself. Mr. Shaw said he hoped
the evidence would be admitted. It would be shown
to the committee t bat Judge Black had taken a fee
from tbe New-Idria Company while acting Attorney-
General in this case, and while thus employed he
bad wielded the power of theAitorney-General s office
corruptly and oppressively. The evidence was ad-
mitted.
Simon Stevens, of New-York City, was then called
as a witness for McGarrahan. He testified that for
many years beheld intimate relations with Thnd-
dens Stevens, and was with him in 'Washington
during a part of every session of Contress. AVitiiess
?roceedea to narrate that in the earlvpart of March.
863. at the instance of Col. John'w. Fomev and
the late John Hickman, he procured for Gen. Daniel
£. Sickles an interview with Thaddens Stevens,
and was present during the interview ;
Gen- Sickles read aloud a statement concern-
ing McGarrahan's claim to the Panoehe
Grande ranch, the object being to induce Thaddeus
Stevens to speak to President Lincoln ab'-ut it and
promote the issuance of a patent to McGarrahan.
Mr. Stevens being 111, requested witness to see Secre-
tJiry iSewanl for him on this subject, which he did.
The Secretary mentioned tbst the subject had been
already discussed by the members of the Cabinet,
and promised to converse with the President con-
cerning it, intimattng that he tMr. Seward] was
favorably disposed to tbe McGarrahan side of the
eoniroversy. A day or two afterward President
Lincoln, hearing that Tlitiddeus titeveua wa» ill
called to see him, and in the presence of the witness
they had a talk of about 20 minutes* duration on
national topics. Before the PreKJdent said good bye
to Representative Stevens, however, they both si-
multaneoualy alluded to the subject of tne Panoehe
Grande ranch. Mr. Lincoln said he bad been nulled
and hauled both ways about signing a patent for
this land claim, and would like to know Mr.
Stevens' views on the subject. He added jocularly
that he would rea ly like to get it out of the
way. as people were calling to see him on this
eoutroversy to such an extent as to impede public
business. Representative Stevens replied, stating
briefly what he had heard of the merits of the appU-
catlun for a patent, and concluding as follows : "If
ycu are convinced, it is right — and Sickles says it is —
sign the thing and get it out of the way."
This conversation occurred on Thursday. The Presi-
dent having informed Representative Stevens that
he would like to see him soon again, (on some other
matters.) and Mr. Stevens not being well enough to
call In person, the witness, at his request, went to
the Executive Mansion on the following Saturday to
convey this message and Inquire if the President
wished to send any word. As soon as he entered the
President's room, the President, who was sitting at a
table, pushed a parchment document toward
him and said, quoting Thaddens Stevens'
designation of the patent, "Well, the thing is
signed." Atthlspomta young gentleman, whom
tbe witness afterward knew as Mr. Stoddard, the
President's private secretary, came in and carried
off the document, saylne something about its having
to go to the General L»and Office. Some six weelu
subsequently the witness met Secretary Seward,
who remarked to him, " I think Mr. Bates
has got ahead of me." [This remark appar-
ently referred to the Attorney-General's ]j»tter
mentioned in tbe preceding testimony, which result-
ed in the Interior Department withholding the deliv-
ery of any patent to McGarrahan.] Continuing his
narrative, the witness stated that on the strength
of a commendatory letter of Introduction
from .Horace Greeley he gave Mr. Stod-
dard employment In the Tehuantepee Com-
pany in 1869 ; in July. 1870, he became acquainted
with McGarrahan in WasLlngton. and learning, to
his surprise, that the Panoehe Grande Rancho
was still in* controversy, told him that he [witness]
had seen the siened patent. McGarrahan soon after-
ward informni him that the record in the Interior
Department had been found, and proposed to em-
ploy him as counsel Witness advised a compromise
wlui the New-Idria Company as cheaper for both
parties than to litigate the claim for years, and
some months subsequently witness, upon receivings
conveyance from McGarrahan of an interest of
6-100 of the claim, tindertook to negotiate for tbe
formation of a new company on a compromise basia.
His negotiations were conducted with Mr. William
E. Barron, President of the New Idria Mining Com-
pany, who was t hen iu New- York City, and with Hon.
WUwun M. Evarts, attorney for Bees & Waller, the
New-York correspondents of theNew-IdriaCompany.
D. O. Mills, of the Bank of California, who was in-
terested in the New-Idria Company, waa lalso in
New- York during a portion of this time, and approved
of the n^otiatlona. The scheme finally agreed upon
between the negotiating parties, subject to formal
ratification by McGarrahan and by the Newldrla
Company; was to organize a company under the laws
of I^w-York, to be called the California Quicksilver
Company, vrith a capital stock of $5,000,000 and an
Issneof #1,000, 000 of first mortKSfe 7 percent. 10-
year gold bonds, to be distributed as follows : Forthe
Newldria Company's title. $500,000 of bonds, also
for MeGazrahan's title. $3,500,000 of stock; for
working capital. $500,000 of stock: for Simon
Stevens, for efl^seting this or any other arrangement
acttptable to McGamthan, stocJc to the amount of
$1,000,000. This compromise scheme was agreed
toby Jir. Barron In the latter part of October, 1 970,
but he died during his journey t>ack to San Fran-
cisco, and witness had no further connection with
the matter.
Mr. Stevens next gave testimony in reply
to questions from Mr. Ingersoll concern-
ing the unsigned parchment" patent, which
was "hnder examination this morning, and
wbieh had figured largely heretofore In the con-
troversy before this committee, the New-Idria Com-
pany baring eontended that it was the entire origiTial
doeoment prepared for signature, but unsigned bv
the Present, and MeGsrrahan having claimed witn
equal emphads that tbe last two sheets — containing
tnegrantinjg clause ana slgnatnres-^have been re-
moved and others substitnted in their place. Mr.
Stevens testified .positively that the out-
side sheet of this document is not tbe same
as the ontside sheet of the patent shown
to blBA by President Idncoln. He wss thus positive,
heeanse the words " Panoehe Grande," Indorsed on
the back of thia document, are in comparative^
small letters, whereas those words on the document
wtaleh he saw on the President's table were inscribed
ta bold letters, at least aa inch and a hslf high. He
nlavtelv' described tfa^ appesranee. haying espeel-
■By noticed them at tbe time, because In the wrions
preeeding eonrersations there had been considerable
talk and some little joking about the correet Spanish
prOnaneiatlon of the name of tbe ranehe.

THE BIXtH day's PLAYINO — TWINTY-TWO
GAMES ALREADY DECIIDII>— WAHLSTBOM,
CYBILLE DION, AND KNIGHT THE LEAD-
ING MEN IN THE GENERAL RESULT —
NUMBER OV GAMES WON BY EACH
PLAYER.
The sixtli day of tiie tonnament at flfteen-
ballpool playing ended yestetday with a total of 22
games played, leaving Wahlstrom, "the Swede,"
Cyrille Dion, and Knight as the leading men in the
general result. It has for some days past been a
tolerably well-settled belief that the first prize snd
championship lay between " the Swede" and Cyrllla,
tbe evident drift of the "arrangement'* on the part
ot the "professionals," that is. the bmiaid-
playlng contestants, being to concentrate on
the strongest of their own number as
against 'Wahlstrom. who, as he plays nothing
but pool. Is regarded by them as a "dnifer." and
a sort of intruder into tiie circle of cue maniptilators.
yrllle has played five games, all of which he has
won, and has yet to meet "the Swede," Warble,
Slosson, and Prey. Wahlstrom has played four
games, in all of which he has proved himself victor,
and has yet to p'ay Cyrille Dion, Knight, WUson,
Sexton, and Prey. There Is stlU an element of chance
about the matter that will make it hazardons to pre-
dict the wiener of the tournament, as Cyrille is
playing a superb game; and is a man of recognized
nerve and resources, while " the Swede " is, like any
other player, liable to a streak of ill fortune. At
the same time every other player in the tourney ia
Impatient for Wahlstrom's scalp, and will consider
that glory enough, thoagh he may fail to get a place
in the tournament. In fact, Joe Dion acknowledged
on the night he played Wahlstrom that if he could
beat him, that waa all he cared for. A curious exem-
plification ot the surprises that surround the -play
consists In the fact that Clark Wilson, who is evi-
dently out of " trim," and has made tbe poorest play
in the tournament, was defeated by Slassop, and
Slosson waa beaten by Sexton, yet In bis match with
Sexton Wilson scored the only victory to his credit
out of the five eames he has played.
The feature ot this week's play, which continues
till Saturday evening, will be the match between
Cyrille Dion and " the Swede." The games played
yesterdav afternoon were between Joe Dion and
Wilson and Cyrille Dion and Sexton, and in both en-
eonnters the brothers were the winners. The game
between Joe Dion and Wilson resulted 11 to 7
against the latter, and between Cyrille Dloa and
Sexton the score was 11 to 9 in Cyrille's favor.
The first evening game between Samuel Knight
and George Frey waa generally uninteresting. Knight
defeatine him easily. There were several very pretty
single combination shots made by both players, and
Knight made a splendid two-cushion bank shot, tak-
ing the upper and right-hand cushions and bagging
the ball in the lower left hand comer. The tenth
game was such a "mutfiu" play all around that It
cooked laughter all the time it lasted. The score is
as follows:
Knight. 1 10011110011 1011—11
Frey 00110000110001 00—5
The second match, played by " the Swedo *' and J.
M. Warble, opened at 10 o'clock, and the interest in
the resnlt as affecting Cyrille Dion's chances in the
tournament, and the desire to see "the Swede's"
peculiar off-hand style of play, drew a large
accession to the ranks of the spectators.
Wahlstrom won the lead, but lost the
first game. Warble, in opening the second game,
made a bad nlay from the string, chipping too full
on the five ball, smashing the pyramid, and forfeit-
ing three by going into tbe left-hand upper pocket.
He lost the game easily. Some wretched play and
several good shots marked the progress of tbe third
game, each player making several unsuccessful ef-
forts to pocket the five and nine balls from
positions where an amateur conld scarcely falL In
the fourth game the Swede played splendidly,
but was beaten by a score of 67 to 40. His last
count was by a remarkable triple combinntlon on the
12 ball, running it tbe length of the table into the
lower right hand comer pocket, and winning
loud applause. Warble, who is a courageous player,
]et himself out in the next game and
in hia first inning picked up 58 nolnts off Wahl-
strom's break. Tnia left matters so that tbe Swede
wanted all the balls, excepti g " fat Jack," to win
the game. He got In three balls counting 21, with
4 1 points, and six balls still on the table. Then
Wamle missed, and the Swede, by really magnificent
skill, cleared the table, winning an almost hopeless
game and round after round of applause.
In the alxth game the flrot "tie ' of tbe tournament
occurred. Tbe Swede had 39 good and Warble 60,
when he misled an easy shot. The 9 and 12 balls
were on the table, and Wahlstrom added them
both to his ncQve — making GO points for each player.
The seventh esrae waa a very lively struggle from
beginnlngto end, each player at one time having 34
points. Then Warble hdded 7 to his score and
missed, and the Swede got in the 12 ball Agam
Wahlstrom played, bagging the 13 ball, ahd supposed
he was " pool. The careless play left him in r>ad
position, so that he could not count, and in the next
Inning Warble got the two remaining balls, and won
tbe game— 61 to 59. The Swede offset his own
mortification, however, by "skunking " his opponent
in the next game, and by beating htm in the succeed-
ing one by a score of 67 to 19. The score of games
cow stood five to three in his favor. In the tenth
game Wablstrom upread blmself. executing some of
the most perfect Doaitiou shots ever played on any
table, evokingmuch surprise an^applanse and tK>oling
to bis opponent's yellow bal^b9 points to 1. He
now began to play with the peculiarly easy yet bril-
liant style which bespeaks defiance and confidence
whenever he assumes It, and " smashing" tbe groups
and counting all over the table. The thirteenth
game was a curions display of tactics, no count being
made till the fifth inning. Then scoring was com-
menced by Warble, but he broke very soon, and when
Wahlstrom reached 59 pointshegot Into badi>OBitIon
and left the balls safe. Warble jplayed for safety.
without changing the i>osition. vCahUtrom olayed
to forfeit and got a mark, and Warble immediately
canceled it. By close play Warble won tbe game.
It Is said $2,500 changed hands on the result. Fol-
lowing is the score :
Wahlstrom-O 1101x0111100111 1—11

LEASE.
, The faneral of WiUlam H. Tweed will take
place on Wednesday next, by which time his dan^
ter, Mrs. MagtnnJs, wUl have arrived from New-
Odeass. She telqpranhed yesterday to know if
his body wonld be kept tmtil she reached
the City, and in reply to a return - telegram In tbe
affirmative, she started for this City in the afternoon,
and it is expected that sh^will be here on Tuesday
next. The faneral will be of a private and unosten-
tatious character, unless Mrs. Maginnia should desire
it to be otherwise. Aaat present arranged the ser*
Tleee will be conducted by Bey. Dr. Price, of Hemp-
stead, liong Island, who officiated at the marriage of
Mr. and Idrs. Tweed. Tweed's body, Incased in' an
tee-box, is in the back parlor of his daughter's
(Mrs. Donglau*) resideneOf No. 67 Serenty-
•evetitb-fltreet. The eoflln Is of plain rose-
wood, covered with black broadcloth, with
silver handlea and silver Inscription -plate .
Crowds of i)eople stood in front of the house during
the day, snd interested persons lingered aroxmd the
doon until late at night. A poUeeman guarded
the house, and none but relotlyes and the most in-
timate friends of the femHy were allowed to enter.
The only member of hu fiuntly here is liis daughter;
Mrs. Doulass. His sons, William M. Tweed, Jr., and
Biehard M. Tweed are la Europe. Mrs. Tweed
snd her unmarried daughter, who are both
bivalids, are in Psris. A telegraphic dispatch
was sent to Mrs. Tweed informing her of hf>r hus-
band's death, and she asked by tti^cr^h for farther
partieolars. She was Informed that Ur. Tweed
died odC pneumonia in lAdlo«.&tteet Jail, and that
his fonenJ wonld take place a£ an early day.
Tweed's two yonsgeet eons, Obarisa and George,
aged respeetively 9 and 11, trbo are at a school in
New-Bngland, do sot know of th^ father's death,
and will not be jaformed of U for some time. ,
Letters of condolence have been received by Mrs.
Dooglsss from a-large namber of people of respeeta-
bUHy and prominency expressing regret and sym-
pathy at the death of her fMber.
Mr. 8. Foster Dewer said last evening to a
Tnoa rapOKter that Tweed, at tbe time of his
deeSh, was not aetnany worth n£ore than $2,500.

propertv to support him comfortably for itfe if

two younger sons. The married daughters received
as marriage portions from 925,000 to $50,000
eseh.
In regard to Tweed's religions belief, which since
bis death has been a matter of speculation to many,
a friend pf the deceased, who served an apprentice*
ship of five years with Tweed's father, Informed a
TiHXg reporter yesterday that Tweed's parents
were Quakers and members of the old
Bose-Stxeet Meeting-house. This gentleman
stated that Tweed, tn his boyhood,
was wayward and gave his parents much concern for
his future. He also said that Tweed never worked
steadily at ehair-making, but was employed ehiefly
in his father's office, and that he and bis brother
Birhard were afterward staried In business by Mr.
Tweed senior, and finally succeeded the old firm of
Tweed Sc Bonnell. whose factory was in Cherry*
street. Tweed's father died at his residence in East
Broadway, about 15 years ago, and his mother about
seven years ago. The latter never Imew of the
charges of malfeasance brought against her sou, all
newspapers having any statements or allusions in re-
gard to them having been kept away from her.
The death of Tweed was yesterday, as might have
been expected, a general topic of conversation.
There were various expressions of opinion. Many
expreSRed a feeling of regrei that he had died in
jail. Some were of the opinion that his punishment
had been harder than he deserved. In view of the
fact that; other members oi the Bing, equally
culpable, had escaped punishment so cheaply.
E^eryljody was appa' ent.y Inclined to be
charitable to his memorv, and local politi.
cians, who have been trembling for some time in
fear of possible discloiures, seemed to be easier in
mind, and could hardly conceal a feeling of (rratifica-
tlon. Mr. Charies Devlin, his friend and bondsman,
said yesterday that a petition for Tweed's release
from confinement had been circulated for a week
past In this and other cities of the State, and had
been largely signed. He believed that a majority of
the State Senators would have also signed this i>eti-
tion next week, and that Tweed wonld have been re-
leased from Ludlow-Street Jail within 10 days.
Mr. John D. Townaend has made public a letter
written by btm as Tweed's counsel about a month
ago, and addressed to Attorney- General Schoon-
maker, makine application for the release of the ex-
Tammany chief, and giving reasons why, in his iudg-
ment, such a course should oe adopted. He details
several con versat ions he had with Mr. Charles O'Conor
prior to and following Tweed's return from Spain,
whish show that Mr. O'Conor was not indisposed to
view favorably the overtures made on Tweed's part,
looking to his restoration to liberty. Mr. Town-
send says that tbe retirement of M-. O'Conor from
the management of the Ring suits took place in the
midst of these negotiations, was wholly unexpected
to him, and was the " severest blow Mr.
Tweed had received since his impritionment. "
The part played by Mr. Carolan O'Brien Bry-
ant is referred to as being In tne nature of an im-
position both on Mr. Tweed and himfelf, but Mr.
Tnwniend thinks he was justified In being misled by
him, because he first met falm at Mr. O'Conor 'a
house, knew that he was a visitor at the house of
Mr. Tilden, "and had reason to snspe«.t that he was
an associate of Mr. Fairchild.' The negotia-
tions with the latter gentleman are then nar-
rated. Mr. Townsend says that on Feb. 23,
1877, he called on Mr. Tweed, in company
with the Attorn ey*6eneral and Mr. Peckham. and
continues: "The Attorney -General then impressed
upon Mr. Tweed the absolute necessity of makine a
full confession of his crimes and accomplices, and
nothing less wonld be acceptable. As the Attorney-
General refused to suggest any subjects upon which
he speciallr required mformation. and it was impos-
sible for Mr. Tweed to bring to mind, on call, all of
his misdeeds or the names of all his associates, a
brief snmmary was prepared ot what he immediately
brought to remembrance, and forwarded to the At-
torney-General on the 26th of February." Subse-
quently, Mr. Fairchild told Mr. TownfendthatTweed,
In order to obtain his discharge, must make a fnll
confession and restore what property he still had,
and that if he complied with these conditions he
would bo released. Upon the strength of this as-
surance*'the confession" was placed iu Mr. Fair-
child's hands. During the time it was retained at
Albany Mr. Tweed, at the suggestion of Mr.
Fairchild, was visited by Mr. Peckham.
his assistant. by Mr. ^vhltoey tbe Cor-
poration Counsel, and his assistant, and
by private counsel employed by the Corporation
Counsel. By nil of these gentlemen Tweed was ex-
amined regarding tbe Ring frauds. Mr. Townsend
then speaks of "Tweed's testimony beforp the Alder-
manle Investigating Committee as an evidence of
his sincerity, and further, of the fact that he
coufesfled Judgment in all the suits pendintr against
bira In order to save expense to the County.
"I respectfully urge," continues Mr., Townsend,
"that outside of tbe fact (hat Mr. Fairchild made a
distinct promise to discharge Mr. Tweed fr. m arrest
if he truthfully confessed but misdeeds, and gave the
names of his associates, which promise can be abund-
antly proved, the treatment of Mr. Tweed as con-
nected with the case of Mr. Sweeny ahould be enough
to authorize his discharge." With the testimony
of Woodward and Tweed, a verdict against Sweeny
would have been certain, and Mr. Peckham. the
writer asserts, .told Mr. Fairchild that he wonld re-
quire Tweed's testimony. The letter continues :
"The final consummation of the arrangement with
Sweeny, which had been going on for several days,
was effected on the 6th of June in opeu court. In a
manner so discreditable to the prosecution that never
since it occurred has any one but Mr. Fairchild
been known to approve it. But let me go a step
further and ask whether, in the Iicht of all the cir-
cumstances which surrounded this settlement with
Sweeny, it Is not fair to presume that it was brought
about through the belief that Tweed was to be called
as a witness 1 " In conclusion, Mr. Townsend speaks
of Tweed's regret that he waa unable to make full
restitution to tbe State; expresses the belief that
the prisoner has little or no property left; snggests
that an Inquiry on this subject would be eminently
proper, and asserts that be knows Mr. Tweed can
give important evidence in several suits iu which the
City is interested. _

CHAPTER I.
TESTEBDAY — BOXDAGB.
X'was sitting one day looking disconso-
lately out of window at a landscape almost
blotted oat br rain and mist, a landscape almost
hatataily familiar to me. My mind was as
cheerless as the prospect, as blank as the sheet
of paper stretched before me to receive its im-
pressions. I loolsed on that sheet of paper with
ilisgnst, with loathine. There was no idea in
my bead, and I felt that anything; I tnigrht at-
tempt to write wonid tnm out meaningless
verbiage. But my invisible task-masters were
behind me — I heard the crack of their manj-
tbonged whips — I saw Messrs. Butcher and
Baker sitting jovfuUy on the car which was des-
tined to cnish roe if I once slackened the rope.
Yes, I was a writer ; neither a successful one
nor the reverse. I made a living by it, but it
was an irregular living. Sometimes I was com-
paratively rich, atothers I was superlatively poor.
At the date of which I write I was decidedly in
ch3 iflt*er condition. In purse and in health I
was at the lowest of low-water ; one reacted on
the other ; my poverty increased mv physical
weakue.«s, which in its turn prevented any
effective effort to fill the exchequer. Every-
thing I wrote somehow missed Ore. A rest and
a change might have set me up. I bad no means
of taking either. Xor was I the only sufferer in
the house. My wife was ill and depressed ; the
children were oat of health. Everything was
out of gear. 1
Under these doleful conditions, I was sitting
in asort of comatose state, brooding overall the
uncomfortable possibilities of existence or non-
existence— without a friend to take counsel
with, or even an acquaintance who might help
to move the stagnant waters of life — when I
was aroused by the unwonted sound of wheels,
a fly drove up to the gate, horse and driver
shivering and dripping with wet. The man
jumped down and rang the bell. The servant
brought up a card : " Mrs. CoIUngwood Daw-
son."
I knew the name well enongh. Dawson was
a tneeessful writer of fiction, a man whose
novels were in demand at all the circulating
libraries. But what could his better-half want
with me? Time would show. The lady en-
tered.
Mrs. CoIUngwood Dawson was a pleasant-
looking woman of uncertain age. not much
over thirty probably, and certainly under forty,
*-vh dark luminous eyes and an expressive face.
" It is ratlier bold of me," she said, "to come
here and take you by storm, without introduce
aon or anything. I can only plead the fellow-
ihip of the craft."
1 replied in an embarrassed way with some
neaningless commonplace, and after a few pre-
imio^ry civilities, she came to the real purpose
3f her visit.
"My husband is," she said, '* a very ill-used
man. Everybody Is worrying him to write this
!knd that and the other. If he had a dozen pairs
of hands be could keep them going. Unfor-
tunately, be is a sod invalid, and is really in-
capable of undertaking more than the little he
has in hand."
I expressed a decent grief at the ill-health of
Mr. CoIUngwood Dawson.
•' I have long beea urging him," she went on,
■■ to take a partner, a coadjntor, a eollaboraUur,
some one who will relieve him from the labori-
oos part of the business, who will work in his
style and on his ideits, and whose work should
in effect be bis. and appear nuder his name."
"You will have difficulty," said I, "in find-
ing a competent person who would be wilUntT to
sacrifice his literary identity."
"Yes; there is a diiEculty. certainly; but X
have taken the liberty of hoping that yon would
help us to obviate it. Yon are yet young, com-
paraiively, and have ample time hereafter to
gather a crop of boys on your own account."
"What induced you, madam, to think of me
In the matter I"
" Simply a study of what yon have written,
tlie style of which seemed suitable to our pur-
pose. If I am offending you, say so, and I will
apologize, and go no fnrther."
I replied that I was willing to hear her offer;
that I had no opinion of literary partnerships,
but that my means would not allow me to reject
point blank any advantageous proposaL
"There is nothing derogatory at all, you will
acknowledge, in working on other people's
lines; the greatest authors have done it."
" Oh, if I can do it honestly, I sh.Ul have no
scruples on any other score."
" Is there any difference between working for
OS and say for a magazine which publishes your
work anonymously ? Or in writing under a nom
de plitmt ? If there is any deceit in the matter,
it rests with us, not with you. But if it be a
deceit, then all the old masters were cheats,
when they sold as their own, pictures which
were In parts done by their scholars ; or sculp-
tors who sell as their work, statues of which all
the rough work haa been done by pupils or
workman. No. Indeed; it i< your own pride
that stands in the way. And pride you know is
» sin, and ought to be repented of.''
" Well," I said, "let me hear the terms."
The terms were liberal enough. A certain
earn per sheet at a higher rate tban X could earn
elsewhere, and with the certainty of a market
for all I wrote, which at that time I did not pos-
tess. But the bait which finally took me was
the offer of an immediate check for fifty poands
on account and to bind the transaction.
I took cooDsel of my wife. '
" Can yon hesitate I" she s^d. " Here 'ifo
iiardly know where to look for to-morrow's food,
and yon are offered a certain income and fifty
poimda as earnest money."
I oloaed with'the offer and accepted thete-
talaing fee, and I •felt as Dr. Faustns might
have done when he sold i.\f soul to the Evil One.
Mrs. CoIUngwood Dawson seemed pleased at
my compliance, and sketched out to n^ the part
■bs wtsbod me to take. We were to vMtitaa-
tore novels polely-about thr« a .veM-. The plot
«u to be drawn out for me, with indwMUms of
tSTjwiata to b« workad ont. TwaatoiUlia
dialogne and deacriptlon. The " author " iras
to be at liberty to add, cut out, amend, and pnt
in finishing touches.
" I .shall give vou." she said. " a packet which
I have left in the By, containioy the various
works of my husband. Head them over crit-
ically, and adapt your style to his. X know you
are a skillful workman, and wiU have no (Uffi-
eulty in the matter."
Business over, my employer joined onr family
dinner. She was bright and cheerful, and her
gayety was infectious. My wife was charmed
with her; the children could not make enough
of her. Her presence bad all the effect upon
me of sparkling wine. When she was gone, I
sat down to read Mr. Dawson's works with as
little appetite for their pemml as a grocer haa
for figs. But I was snmrised to 'find that
though uneven in quaUty arid often carelessly
written, there were abundant traces of 'a vivid
imagination, and an intimate knowledge of the
workings of the human heart in morbid and
unhealthy developments. These qnaUties, I
may say, appeared only by fits and starts, and
were overlaid by a good deal of very common-
place work. The stronc: point of his fiction,
and that which gained, no doubt, the approval
of the public, was the plot. His plots were
alwa^ ingenious and well combined, and kept
the interest going to the very fall of the
curtain.
Time passed on. X got fairly to work on my
new business. I had.no fault to find with mv
employers, and they on their part seemed well
satisfied with my .lerrices. I h.idas much work as
I could manage; butX found it mnoh easier than
of old, inasmuch as I had definite lines to work
upon and a disrinct object in view. Then the
payment was regular, and in virtue of that, our
household assumed an aspect of comfort and
tranquillity to which it had long been a stranger.
As it was no longer necessary for me to live
within reach of London, I determined to carry
out a plan that had been in my head for some
time, aiid settle for a while in some quiet place
in Normandy, where* one could have good air,
repose, and tranquillity, without the appalling
duUness that mantles over an English country
town.
^Ilthis time Ihad never seen Mr. CoIUngwood
Dawson, and the only address I knew was at his
chambers in the Temple'; but all busine.ss mat-
ters were arranged with a Mr. Smith, who, I un-
derstood, was his agent. My removal involved
only a trifling extra cost in postage, and I had~
work on hand that would keep me going for sev-
eral months.
We settled in a pleasant picturesque little town
on the banks of the Seine, and after giviug my-
self a few weeks' holiday, to make acquaintance
with the neighborhood, X began to plod on
steadily at mv task.
I had just dispatched a parcel of manuscript
and was strolling hotueward from the Post
Office along the quay, when I stopped to watch
some people fishing from the steps that lead
down to the water-side. The tide was low, the
evening tranquil. The setting sun was blink-
ing over the edge of the wood-crowned heights
behind ; but all this side of the view was in
shadow, while the aspens and poplars on the
further bank were glowing in golden light. A
little brook that escapes into the river here-
about throusb a conduit of stone was splash-
ing and Imbbling merrily. In the eddy formed
by the brook and the big river were swimming
the light floats of the fishermen, every now and
then pulled down, more often by some drown-
ing weed or twig, but sometimes by a fish,
whose eager darts from side to side, and strug-
gles as it was hauled in by main force, afforded
great amusement and excitement to some half
dozen boys.
A more than commonly vigorous pluck at one
of the floats, and a strenuous tug at the line be-
longing to it, which made the rod curve and
wave under its strains, showed that a big fish
hod been hooked. 'The sensation among the
spectators was great. It is always an awkward
matter to land a flsh of any size when the river
bank is perpendicular and' there is no landing-
net. Our friends here, however, were not dis-
posed to create unnecessary difliculties. A com-
panion of toe successful fisherman seized the
line and began to haul it in band over hand. It
iaa capital way this if everything holds and
the fish is hooked beyond possibility of release.
In this case, however, although tha line was
pulled in vigorously, all of a sudden the resist
an'^.e ceased and the hook came naked home.
The bafiled fisherman bowed and smiled polite-
ly at his friend. It was a little contre-Umps in-
separable from the amu.sement of fishing.
"Clumsy!" growled a voice close to my elbow
in good English. I turned around quiteistartled,
for there were no English residents in the
town, and the accents of iny native tongue were
becoming unfamiliar. A man stood by my side
of somewhat strange appearance. He was short
and thick-set. and had a massive strongly
marked face, with bushy overhanging eyebrows,
a heavy gray mustache, and stubby beard of
only a few weeks' growth. His arms were fold-
ed, the lelt one over the other; but as he
changed his position. I saw that he had lost his
right hand, and that its place was supplied with
an iron hook. He was dressed in a blouse made
of some kind of coarse blanke« stuff of a huge
check pattern, trousers of dirty white flannel,
stuffed into boots that came half way up his
calf. A Tuvkey-red handkerchief was twisted
carelessly round bis throat, there being no sign
of any shirt beneath ; and a bonnet of the Glen-
garry shape was cocked rather fiercely on bis
head. In his hand he held a packet of whity-
brown paper, made up as it seetned for trans-
mission by post. I could not help seeing that
the packet was addressed " London " in a bold
rough hand.
He seemed to wince at the look full of curios-
ity that 1 gave hfm. His fskGfi, which had been
lighted op with -interest in w tching the prog-
ress of the fishing, now turned dull and dark.
He went off at a short shambling trot in the di-
rection of the Post OfSce, and I saw no more of
him just then.
I was not long, however, in finding out aome-
tblng about him. His name it seemed was Bou-
lot, and although eccentric, hfi was inoffensive,
and was on the whole rather resneeted by tha
townspeople. He was a savant — a character, in
their eyes, that excused a good deal of morose-
ness and roughness of manner. He had resided
in the neighb.>rbood for some years, and occu-
pied a single room in a house upon the bill over-
looking the town. Here he Uved— hermit fash-
ion— keeping no domestic, buying his own pro-
visions in the market, and cooking them him-
self. His kitchen, however, I was given to
understand, was the least important part of his
establishment ; and the juice of the grape or of
the apple, or of the potato haply, distilled into
strong waters, formed the chief of his diet
For many weeks at a time he would scarcely
stir from his room, only coming out when his
bottle of brandy was empty, or on market
days to buy provisions. After this period of
seclusion, he would be seen walking about the
country with a pipe in his mouth, a thick oaken
stick n'nder his arm, and a book in his solitary
hand, still morose :ma unsociable. There was
yet a third stage, during which he would haunt
ihe caf^ and wine-shops, drinking a good deal,
and chatting away with aU confers. At these
times he was apt to get quarrelsome, and he
was known in con>'equence to be on bad terms
with the Inspector of Police.
I dare say that if I had chosen to apt>ly to the
last-naroe<l functionary, I should have got still
more ample information ; but there was noth-
ing to justify me in pushing inquiry any fur-
ther. It was generally thoui^ttbatHonlot was
EngHsh in origin ; but his French was not dis-
tinguishable as that of a foreigner, and he
spoke German as well as he did English.
A week or two afterward ImetMonsienrHon-
lot walking on the heights' overlooking the
Seine, with his pipe and stick, and with his
nose in a tattered volume. I raised my hat in
passing; but he turned his head awav with a
scowl, and did not return my salute. Decided-
ly, 1 said to myself, he is EngUsh.
One morning the postman brought mo a regis-
tered letter containing a remittnnce from Eng-
land, and placed before me his book to receive
my signature. When I had signed, he handed
me a letter: but it was not for me, it was for M.
Honlot: and yet, curiously enough, the address
was in the handwriting of Mr. Smith, the busl-
ne« agent of CollingwooJ Dawson, from whom
I was expecting a remittance, f
"Ah, 1 have given you the wrong letter," said
the postman. " They are both just alike, and I
have made a mistake ; pardon. Monsieur;" and
he hauded me a similar letter addressed to my-
self.
I noticed that from this date Honlot seemed
to assume his, third stage of habits — that in
which be hauiited the caf^ and wine-shops.
Every one agreed that he was much less inac-
cessible at such times, and could even make
ca.saai acquaintanceship with strangera I had
a great desire to know more abont him, and
took a little pains to thrOw myself in his way.
I ascertained that he usually spent, his after-
noons in one particular e&Ii — the C(tfi Ctkjiu,
thus called from the name of its proprietor ;
and I made a point of taking coffee there
every day at the hour at which be was usually
to t>e met with. But I did not advance my pnr^
noee by that He woul^ bury his head in the
Journal de Ronan, turn his bock persistently
npon me, and leave the caf £ at the earliest pos-
sible moment
"You will come and visit ns this evening t"
said Mademoiselle Cujus graciously to me one
day, as I paid my score at the counter of the ele-
piDt'Uttle platform whence she dispensed her
various tinctures. " We sbaU have a very gen-
teel eoneert to-night"
Mademoiselle is a eharmiaK BtQe Treneh-
wmmo, with a piquant rsfnmssf nose, a full and
■oftly-Tioanded eUn, and daik eyes, with a
veiled fire about them most attnctive. She
maan tha naWaat little boots in tha world, aiul
ia always charmingly dressed. It is dUOenlt to
refuse Mademoiselle Cujus anything, and I un-
dertook to be. present at the concert. Admission
was free, and thus I did not commit myself to
aav great outlay.
i When I entered the eafi that evening I fonnd
it well filled with a miseellaneonabut respectable
company. Everybody ia talking, ooffee-cnps
and glasses are clinking, dominoes are rattUng.
At one end of the toom, on an extemporized
platform, formed of a few rough boards, the
prima donna, a rather bony lady in a very low
dress, stands with 'a roU of mtisic in her hand
and surveys the company in a somewhat dis-
satisfied way. She has cleared her throat once
or twice, and the pianist bongs out an opening
chord or two. Her voice is a little husky— per-
hsps with the singing of anthems ; but she has
plenty of confidence and "go" about her, and
the wit to please her audience.
When the rattle of applause that greeted the
end of the lady's song had ceased, there followed
a comic man dressed as a peasant, carrying a
tobaccos>ipe, which he was always trying,
though ineffectually, to light with a inatch from
his trousers-pocket. He counterfeits the Nor-
man peasant in a state of semi-intoxication ex-
cellently well, and his song is much applauded
and called for again.
" Yah !" growled a voice behind me in an
angry tone ; and looking round I saw M. Honlot
standing by the doorway, his thick stick under
his arm. He seemed to be a little obscure in
his faculties, and to have resented the last per-
formance as a personal insult to himself. His
brows were knitted, and his eyes gleamed an-
grily while he grasped the thin end of his stick
in a menacing way. Mademoiselle Cujus saw him
at the same moment as myself, and descended
quickly from her Olympus to appease him, lay-
ins her hand upon his arm as if to beg him to
retire. He shook it roughly off; and Made-
moiselle looked imploringly at me, as being
the only one of the company who had noticed
this little scene. At the sight of beauty in dis-
tress I at once came forward. I took Honlot
kindly but firmly by the arm, and led him out
into the kitchen at the back, where, among the
manybrighlly-shining vesselsof tin and copper,
we endeavored to pacify him and explain mat-
tersL
No one could possibly withstand the winning
ways of Miss Cujus. Honlot was appeased, and
went quietly out into the street I bad had
enough of the concert and followed him. He
lurched a little in his gait, and every now and
then stopped and looked fiercely round at the
stars overhead, as if he objected to their wink-
ing at him in the manner they did. I accosted
him once more, and in English, saying that I
understood that he spoke the language perfect-
ly, and would he favor me with his company for
half an hour. He made no reply at first, but
wrinkled his brows and puckered bis Ups.
" Come along!" he said at last with a sudden-
ness that startled me. " Let me have a talk
with you, then."
I occupie.l a furnished house, with a little pa-
vilion in the garden looking out on the river,
which I used as mv writing and smoking room ;
and to this paviUon I took my friend and called
for lights and cognac He seemed restless and
disturbed at the idea of being my guest. He
would not sit I'own, but as soon as be had swal-
lowed a glass of brandy ho grasped his stick
once more to take his deiHirtnre.
" If you would like any English books," I
said. '*I have some magazines and so on."
He shook his head. " I never read English ;
I have read none for ten years," he said. " I
like to get things at first hand ; so that if I
want to know anything I go to the Germans ; if
I want to feel anything to the French. But
what have you here f" taking up a book. It
was a volume of Dawson's last novel which had
been sent over to me.
" Hum V he cried. " Is this a good author t"
" A popular one," 1 replied, modestly remem-
bering the share I had, if not in his fame, at
least in his fortunes.
" I'll take this if youlllet me have it," he
said.
" Take the three volumes."
" No ; I'll only take one. I don't suppose I
snail get through the first chapter."
Next day, however, he came back to borrow
the second volume, and the day after the third.
I felt a little flattered that a work in which I
had taken so good a share had the power to
captivate such a dour and sullen soul.
" What do you think of it I" 1 said, when he
brought back' the last volume. He was stand-
ing leaning again.st the doorway with his stick
under his arm. He would never sit down ; he
seemed to have made a vow against it.
'* Think of it?" he cried. "Wny, it is my
own — my own story !"
"Yours!" I said astonished. "How do you
make that out 1°'
" It is mine ! the framework, the skeleton of
it Some fool has been at work npon it and
taken out aU the beauties of it! The burning
fiery dialogue, the magnificent glowins: descrip-
tions, all are gone, and in their stead some ass
has filled it all up with pulp!"
This was pleasant for me to hear. My blood
boiled with indignation, but I was obliged to
smother my rage and put on a sickly smile.
" You must be mistaken. I said. " How could
he possibly have got hold of your story i"
"How! He must have got it from a man
named Smith, to whom I sent it. Write I Yes,
I have written ever since I was breeched ! It is
a disease with me ; I can't help it Romances,
novels, all that trash !"
" And you send what yon write to London!"
Honlot nodded. But he seemed aU at once
to have repented of his freedom of speech, and
tbok refuge in his usual taciturnity. Then once
liiore hngiring his stick, he started off at his
lual sbambUng trot

CHAPTER n.
TO-DAT— TEOUBLB.
Winter came and passed away without
anything happening to break the even tenor of
existence, bpring came, and with Spring the
appearance of a new novel of Mr. Collingwood
Dawson. Having bad a considerable share in
its manufacture, I felt naturally anxious to
know the result of its appearance. I had an en-
couraging note from Mrs. CoIUngwood Dawson:
"Much liked — goes off very well:" and I saw
from the advertisements in the papers that the
notices of the oreMS were generally favorable.
At the head of them all was the following ex-
tract from the Hebdomadal Sei'iew: "High
capacity — very good — many readers — enticing
interest" Tributes of appreciation that were
valuable from a periodical rarely given to praise
overmuch any one unconnected with the house
it represents.
Soon, after I had another note from my em-
ployer: "I am coming over to confer with you
on literary and other matters ; please make all
necessary arraneements. I shall be accompa-
nied by a female friend, but not, alas, by Mr.
CoIUngwood Dawson !"
The steamer that plies the Lower Seine in the
Summer months came puBlng up the river one
fine breezy morning and dropped, into a Uttle
boat that put off to meet her, two female passen-
fers, a quantity of boxes, and a little white dog.
recognized my expected visitors, and hastened
down to the landing-place to meet them. 1 ex-
plained that my house was not big enough to
take them in : t>ut that I had secured rooms at
the hotel close by, and that my wife and I hoped
to have as much of their society aa they could
give tis.
"After they had settled down in their new
abode Mrs. CoIUngwood Dawson came over to
see me, and was shown into the pavilion.
"I am in a good deal of doubt and difSculty."
she said, "and I have come to ask your opinion
and discuss matters with you. But as it is no
use to p'ut balf-confldenee in you. and youropiu-
ion wUI be of little good unless you know fully
all the circumstances of the case, I mean to tell
you everything; and will first begin, if you
please, and if it does not tiore you too much,
with a little sketch of my life."
I assured her that I should have great pleas-
ure in listening to her, as anything connected'
with her was of interetrt to me.
" I am." she began, " the daughter of an
official of the old Itadia Hoiise : and my father,
who bad held a good position there, and en-
joyed a good income, left at his death no other
provision for his widow and only child, myself,
but the pensions to which we were entitled — a
very handsome one indeed for mi' mother ; and
for myself some £70 a year, which ceased at my
marriage. He had been during his lifetime very
fond of good society, especially literary society;
and thus from early years I had been acquainted
with many people who followed that profession.
Consequently, it is not surprising that I tried to
add to an income sufficiently narrow by literary
work, although I confess that I bad no particu-
lar talent, and certainly no enthusiasm for the
task, and met with little success. In this way
I became acquaiiited with several publishers
and many authors ; among others was my first
husband. He was a man of great intellectual
power and force of will, but quite without any
baUa't of judgment or eommon stnse. StiUI
was very much enthralled by his infiuenee, and
he having formed a violent pamion for me. in-
sisted on marrying me. Young and ill-advised,
I gave way to Us impetoosi y, and married
we were. I soon bad cans* to repent the hasty
step. He had been a man of most irregnlur
habits ; and after a brief period of devotion to
me, be resumed them. Our household became
a scene of constant jars and quarrels ; he wearied
out my life, and I must have wearied out his.
The beantif nl soul that I thought I had recog-
nized as enshrined in his somewhat iU-fonned
aad stnnted figure, had no existenee for me.
Be was malignant and detestable, ntteriy— most
utterly."
Her voice trembled with anger at t&e zetro-
gneet. while her«r«« fflled iritlt indignant teara.
' " It was an Ill-assorted match evidently," X
■aid- " Bnt way did you not agree to separate T"
'.' I Shrank from mentioning such a thing :
wifii aU ,hi8. fanlta, I beUeved that he was still
Btdielnttom devotedly atucbed to me. Be-
sidea, such a step Is always distressing and com-
promising. No-, I went on bearing my troubles,
net ailentty indeed, for I have too much spirit,
X confess, to make a meek and uncomplaining
wife ; bnt X bore them anyhow, althbngh I cou-
fes) that any affe<:tioji I ever had for him had
been lost in the embroilments of our married
life. You may think that I was to
falpms, and that if there were a real
attachment on hisapart toward.me, I ought to
have been able to manage him ; bnt I tell you
no! There wiu a certain malignity in his na-
ture that made turn spiteful and tormenting,
even to .those whom he loved. Anyhow, life
was aaorrowful burden to me while he was vrith
me."
She rose, looking quite overcome by the re-
cital of her troubles. Her eyes were filled with
tears ; her hands trembled nervously, as she
raised them to press the hair back from her
forehead. I murmured a few wortls expressive
of sympathy and good-will.
"Welir' she said, sitting down and wiping
her eyes with a pretty embroidered hanilker-
ehief ; "not to dwell npon my troubles. I was
at last relieved from tne hateful knot by his
death — a death I believe he contrived in a way
that should leave ine in as cruel and doubtful a
position as possible. He left home one day
withont giving me any intimation that he would
stay, away — that ■was his general practice— or
leaving me any money to carry on the household
expenses. And the next thing I heard of him
was from a Uttle village on the coast that he
had been drowned while bathing. X
beUeve that he committed suicide. I oscei^
tained that he had been informing himself most
minutely of the set of the tides and currents
about the coast, and with fiendish ingenuity had
taken to the water at a time when the tide was
certain to carry his body far out to sea."
" But What object could he have had In that,
madam V
"Don't you seel The pension which I had
lost in marrying revived on my widowhood.
But he bad contrived that hist>ody sliouldnever
be found. In vain I applied to the authorities
to renew my pension. • There bad been several
cases of attempted personation and fraud about
these pensions, and they utterly refused to re-
new mine without absolute proof of nay hus-
band's death. This I was unable to ailord to
their satisfaction, his body never having been
discovered. StUl the circumstantial evidence
was most strong, and I was advised to bring an
action in the way of a petition of right A cir-
cumstance, however, occurred," said the widow,
with a slight blush, "which rendered such a
step unnecessary."
"Ah! I see." I cried; " you married again 1"
"Yes; and this time my venture was more
fortunate. My second husband was an officer
in the Annr— frank, and free, and brave. No
Toung couple could have been happier. But
alas ! we were neither of us prudent in the man-
agement of onr affairs. We had small means in
the present, but greatexpectations. and we were
too sanguine to think of the possibility of dis-
appointment Life became a series of feasts
and f 6tes. My husband sold out of the Army,
and we lived gayly enough on the proceeds of
bis commission, till that was aU gone, and we
saw ourselves brought to the verge of ruin. I
I must tell you that my husband was also of a
literary turn, and wrote military ske'ches and
so on, that brought in a Uttle money, but noth-
ing substantial.
"We had one resource stiU left— the house
in which we lived: it had been my mother's.
and at her death she left it to me. It
was a pretty little house, in the neigh-
borhood of St John's Wood ; but it was
leasehold only, and the lease had not more
than ten years to run. We had found it un-
der these circumstances, imt>ossible to mortgage
onr interest. We might have sold the lease ;
and that with the furniture, which had also
been my mother's, would have reaUzed five or
six hundred pounds. But when that was gone,
where should we 'look for shelter 1 Charles'
great expectations" —
"Pardon me for interrupting you. You have
mentioned your hnsba d's Christian name ; it
wiU make your narrative clearer if you teU me
also his surname."
** CoIUngwood was his name — Charles CoIUng-
wood."
"And the name of the first one was Dawson V
. "You have guessed rightly. To continue.
Charles' great expectations had all come to a
bad end. A rich relative, who had brought
him up for his heir, took a zreat dislike to me,
and cut him out of his will, for no reason in
the world but that he had married me, and that
we were very poor. When he died, and we
found this out, it seemed that the world had
come to an end for us. What was to be done!
Live in the most niggardly way we might,
but we could not live on nothing. First we be-
gan to sell the less essential paris of our belong-
ing. We lived on old china for three months ;
and then we began on our paintings. We had
some good ones by English artists, which my
father had left benind him, and these kept us
for a whUe. Bnt this was like burning the
planks of the ship to keep the engines going.
Charles bad tried hard for emplo3rment in the
meantime. For the Qovemorship of a colony ;
for .& Consulship; the post of Adjutant of
A»liHi^ ; the same thing In a volunteer regi-
ment ; for the Chtef-Constableship of a large
town ; f<}r the management of a brewery ; and
ever so many things besides. All of no use.
" ' We must take in washing,' said Charles,
' and I will become a second Mantilini, and turn
the mangle.'
"Lodgers were bur next thought, and that
seemed more feasible. Then some one advised
us to let our house furnished. We put an ad-
vertisement in the papers, and by great good luck
we had an offer for the whole of the house at once.
Six guineas a we«k for May, June, and July.
We made up oar minds to take cheap lodgings
somewhere oh the coast, and spend only half
our weekly six guineas, which would thus l^t
us six months instead of three. As we were
packing up our belongings and storing away
the packages in the luml>er-room, Charles
stumbled over a lot of old boxes, from which
arose a cloud of dust
" ' What are these old things!' he cried.
" 'I don't know anything about them. They
were my first husband's books and papers.'
I "■ Books, eh I' said Charles. 'Let's have a look
at 'em ;' and broke open one of the boxes. This,
however, turned out to bO full of packets of
manuscripts. Charles made a wry face over
them, but he took out a packet and began to
read it. I went on with' the work. I had every-
thing to do then, 1 must tell you, fur we bad
dismissed onr servants, and lived in the house
by ourselves with only a char-woman to help-
quite in picnic style.
" Well diimer-time came, and Charles, who
was still up stairs reading his manuscript,
brought it down with him and laid it beside his
plate, and went on again reading directly after
dinner:
" ' Itell yon what it is, old woman,'he raid, as
we went to bed, ' I feel muddled with it all, and
rather as If I'd been supping off pork chops
and Welsh-rabbit; but there's something in that
fellow's writings, only they are coarse, decided-
ly coarse.'
"But I am tiring yon," saidMrs. Collingwood,
looking np with a smile.
"NotatalL I am highly interested. Goon,
please."
" We went away to the sea-side, and Charles
took sevei«l packets of manuscript with him
to amuse him, as he said, during the long days.
" ' Do you know,' he said to me one evening,
' I think one could make something out of these
things. If we out out the objectionable pas-
sages which I expect were in the way of their
publication' —
"'My dear Charles,' I aaid, 'these were his
reUgion, and he would not have touched a word
for worlds to make them more acceptable.'
" ' And died a mariyr to the faith, eh T said
Charles. ' Well, 1 sfaa n't be so very particular.
There's enough fur a three-volnme novel here,
and I shall expurgate it and try its luck.'
" Charles was never much of a penman, but X
was a neat quick writer, and thus the copying
feU upon me. Charlie did the botching and
patching, and dictated as I copied. But what a
task it was ! i am sure the mere writing of it
was worth all we were destined to get for it let
alone the author's work and our amendments.
Then we got a lot of the most taking three-vol-
ume novels from the library, and counted the
words and lines, so as to get ours about the right
length. It was finished at last, just as our
house became vacant; and as soon as we got
back to town I took it to a publisher. It was
agreed that I should do all this part of the work,
lor my poor Charlie used to say that if anything
happened to him,, I should find the use of these
habits of business." Here she paused.
X coughed doubtfully. My knowledge of
human nature led me to attribute the arrange-
ment to shyness ^d laziness on his part I did
not however, venture to disturb Mrs. Colling-
wood's illusions.
She resumed: "Toonrsnrprlseand joy, after

our novel was, as you know, a success. It went
off like ,wild-fire, and our publishers fed the
flame adroitly by issuing ode edition after
another — all of the same impression. All this
time we were at work upon another, whtch also
went down, although not so much relished as
the first I think we had purified it a little too
much. Avoiding this error in a third, we again
made a hit Our fortune warnow made and pub-
lishers were at onr feet Boi we were in this
strait: 'we had come to an end of our finished

on th s point The question to be solved was
how to supply the want To Charles the idea
first suggested itself of trying to secure assist-
ance from outside. It was quite evident that it
would be useless to think of any person well
known in the worid of letters. We set our-
selves to study the more obscure Uterature of
the day."
I bowed politely, but with some Inward mor-
tification.
" Oh, don't think you are in question now,"
said the lady, with an arch smUe ; " wait to the
end of the story. My husband came home one
day in a state of great excitement He had in
his pocket a copy of the Weekly Dredger, which
contained an instalment of a serial story just
commenced.
"■Read that,' he cried. When X had finished:
" ' Now, what do yon think !'
" But X was trembling all over with terror."
"• What's the matter!' he cried."
"' O, Charles I' I said, "if I did not know It
was impossible, I should say that no one but |ay
late husband could have written this.'
" So strongly was I penetrated with this idea
that for a long time I forbade him to make any
inquiry after the author. At last we were so
pressed to supply another novel that I consented
that he should make inquiries. The story in
the Weekly Dredger, wo found, had ^come so
grotesque and bizarre that finally the editor
brought it to an abrupt close himself, refusing
to take any more of it ; and be made no difficulty
whatever about teUing our business agent in
confidence the name of the writer. I must tell
you we had found it necessary to employ an
agent, Mr. Smith, who has served us faithtully
enough, but who was never permitted to see my
husband. Well, Charles wrote cautiously to the
author of this queer story, who, it seemed, lived
in France, asking him to send specimens of his
stories, and specifying the quantity required
for possible publication, with his terms.
We had in repl.v a pile of manuscript
Judge of the relief I felt when I found
that the handwriting was q'uite unfamiliar to
me. His terms were so low that we had no
difficulty in undertaking to accept all his work.
For some seventy pounds a year we secured
everything he wrote. A great deal of the stuff
was utterly useless to ns, but every now and
then he gave us the framework of a powerful
story. Well, all of a sudden he turns sulky and
refuses to send any more. Charlie would have
found some one to supply his place, no doubt
But now I come to the great misfortune of my
life" — with faltering voice — "the death of my
dear husband."
"Your husband dead!" I cried, quite unpre-
pared for the announcement
" Yes, he is dead ; and unhappy me. 1 have
not been able to mourn his loss except in secret
and with precautions. The funeral even was
copdueted with as much caution as if he had
been a felon, and we had been ashamed of
having to own that he bad belonged to us. And
he was the kindest most affectionate —
" But it was his own wish," she went on after
a pause. "He planned out everything. You see
that although our writings — compilations shotild
I call them !" she said, with a faint attempt at a
smile — " brought us in a nice income, yet we
were pleasure-loving people, and had always been
accustomed to plenty of society, and we had
saved nothing out of it We have two children,
a boy at Rugby, and a daughter at an expensive
school ; and there is poor Charlie's sister, the
lady who accompanies me, and she has no one
else to depend upon but me. Besides, as Charlie
urged before he died : * Zam not Collingwood
Dawson,' he said ; ' why should my death be
the cause of his ! Keep him aUve, old woman,
to be a support to yon and the children and
Lizzie.' Those were almosthis last words, dear
brave fellow !" She rose and left the room,
overcome by uncontrollable emotion.
My thoughts, after Mrs. Collingwood quitted
me, were rather of a serious turn. I refiected
that my own interests were bound np in the
same cause, and that my own livelihood hung
very much upon keeping up Mr. CoIUngwood
Dawson as a going concern. It was too late to
fback now. If 1 had gained experience,
had lost connection. My own place
had been filled np. Mr. Collingwood
Dawson bad become as necessary to me as to
the widow and her family. Still the idea of a
person who never died, who enjoyed a sort of
corporate existence, or, like the living Buddha,
transferred his identity from one body to
another, a being who could go on writing novels
and publishing them to the crack of doom,
struck one with a kind of awe.
As a relief to the troubled current of my
thoughts, I took up a newspaper which Mrs.
Colliogwobd had brought witb ber. It was the
Hebdomadal Sevieir, the number containing the
review of Collingwood Dawson's last novel. I
turned to the page witb a kind of pleased ex-
citement,-fr>r the short abstract that I had seen
in the advertisement, aa you have seen, was
calculated to give me the impression that the
critique was an appreciative one. It was so
short that I have no scruple in giving it in ex-
Un»o : "If it be necessary, and we suppose it
is. that silly, ill-educated people should be sup-
plied with the morbid trash suited to their high
capacity, there is no reason why Mr. Colling-
wood Dawson should not cater for their wants.
We can say of his novel that it is very good
stuff of the kind. The pity is that there should
be 30 many readers for this kind of stuff. We
onlv Hope that young ladies of the class who
find Mr. Dawson's compilations acceptable will
not be unduly led away from the paramount
claims of seam and gusset and band by the en-
ticing interest of his story."
Satire Ukothisdoesnothit veryhard, however,
and my only feeling after the first disappoint-
ment was of amusement at the ingenuity that
had been able to extract the sting from it and
secure the latent honey. One word, however,
seemed dangerous — "compilations." Was it
possible that the critic had discovered the
composite nature of Mr. CoIUngwood Dawson!
"Can you lend me five pounds ! " said a gruff
voice behind me. I turned and saw the squat
figure of M. Houlot close to my chair.
It was an embarrassing question. There was
nothing in M. Houlot's appearance to invite con-
fidence— at aU events to the extent of five pounds.
At the same time, M. Houlot had in my mind
loomed into considerable imoortance. forsince I
had heard Mrs, Collingwood's story I had iden-
tified him with the third portion of Mr. Colling-
wood Dawson.
"Oh, if it requires consideration, don't think
about it," said Houlot roughly. " 1 won't trouble
you."
" Stop a minute," I repUed ; " wait X don't
kuow whether I have the money. I must ask
my wife."
" Oh, you are one of the wretched slaves of a
fietticoat are you !" said Houlot with a rasping
augb. " I should have thought you had Uved
through that staze of your development."
" As she will be ' the principal sufferer if the
money should not be returned, she is entitled to
a voice in the matter."
" Look here! If it comes to asking your wife
ru withdraw my request I know what that
means, well enough. But if you are afraid of
not gettingyour money back. Til give you
security. What .security ! Why, manuscripts
worth ten, twenty pounds. I should soy, if I
were some people— of priceless value."
"Ah!" I said to myself, "there ia Houlot,
who has quarreled witb his bread and butter,
and now he comes to me to borrow money to go
on with. Would it not be better to send for
Mrs. CoIUngwood to see if this is really the
man wiio suppUes her with her plots; and if so.
to make the peace between them, and get him
to continue the supply 1"
Mrs. Collingwood saved me the trouble of
sending for her. I saw her coming' across the
garden to the pavilion, ^he was composed now
and cheerful ; she led one of my girls by th'e
hand, and was telling her a story, I fancy, in
which the child seemed nncommonly inter-
ested.
Honlot was standing leaning against the man-
telpiece with hisltaek to the doorway, and un-
der his arm his stick, which he was rubbing
with the point of his hook, as was .his custom
when vexed. I saw Mrs. Oollingwood coming
in St the doorway— door and windows were wide
open. All of a sadden her face whitened all
over, and she tottered backward. I ran to her
assistance; but when I reached the garden she
had already disappeared within the house.
"Am I a hobgobUn, that I frighten people!"
said Houlot savagely, coming to the door.
" Where's that woman who ran away !"
I made no Teply ; and he went on rabhing his
stick with the :,iTOQ hook, apparently in a very
evil temper.
"I want that moaar parttenlarly; I want to

' ' I canH say anything more to jron Jn»t now,"
I replied. "I will let you know to-morrow."
"That will lose me two days; I want to start
to-morro*."
" I can't help it X can't let yon have the
money now."
. Honlot saw that I was in some flurry and eon-
fnsion, and thought probably that I was afraid
of him, and that by bnU;^ng me a little be
should get what he wanted.
"Come now!" he cried; "go and getme
that money ; I know what I know, and I am not
to be stopped for a paltry five-pound note. "
Myreplywastoshowhimthedoor. Hescowled
at me, fingered his stick as if he had a mind to
hit me, thought better of it seemingly, and went
out growling inarticulately.
"Where is he, that man!" cried Mrs. Col-
lingwood, meeting me in the doorway of the
house, looking quite livid with fear. "What
do vou know of him t Where does he come
from ?"
" He is yonr correspondent, the author of
your plots.''
"Ab. then is he my hnsband t" she cried in a
voice that, though low and subdued, was full of
anguish. " What a wretched being am I, to have
seen him !"
" It would have been worse still had he seen
you," I mattered. " Come, Mrs. Collingwood—
come into the garden, into the open air; you
will be better there. Take my arm ; keep np
your heart ; aU will be weU yet"
" Where is he I where is he!" was all she
could ssy.
" He is gone ; you are quite safe."
We began to pace np and down the garden to-
gether, she wriL'ging ber hands and writhing
with pain and emotion.
" I>o consider," I said, " that he has kept out
of the way all these years, and that he is not
likely to trouble you now."
"Oh! I can't bear to think. The children —
poor Charlie, what wiU become of ns all I"
"The children wiU take no harm," I said, " if
you act prudentiy, AU wUl be well ; and yonr
late husband is ont of the reach of any
trouble."
" Ah yes, poor Charlie ! X wish Ihad died with
him. Even now he may be reproaching me !
How dreadful, dreadful it all is !"
I could not give her much consolation ; for,
besides these troubles of the heart, other ariti
less manageable difficulties I saw were impend-
ing.
At the first blush it was impossible to say
what would become of us all in this imbrogEki.
Certainly if any one were entitled to be consid-
ered Collingwood Dawson, it was the man who
had originated the works by which he had
obtained his fame. On the other hand, he
would never have had any success himself.
No pubbsher would have looked twice at
books which were so violent and coarse.
AH the labor and pains that hod been taken
in bringing bis writings into an acceptable
form, were they to go for nothing I And was it
to be allowed that a man who had thrown off aU
ties and abandoned his place in the world,
should resume them when other people had
made them worth possessing ! It seemed not ;
and yet the law would be on his side.
There was only one consoling feature in the
position — the man had no money. He could
not move without that; and if he had been able
to obtain it from any other source, he would
hardly have come to borrow from a jtraneer ;
but this was a very frail barrier after alL 'He
might, if he were determined to get l»ek to
England, find his way to the nearest port, and
get passed home by the Consul as a distressed
British subject Why be had not gone over to
England when he first discovered the use that
had been made of his talents was probably be-
cause he waited to complete some work he* had
in band, which might serve as an introduction
to the publishers and a sort of voucher for his
claim.
Was there, however, nopossibility of mistake!
Was it perfectly certain that thii was the miss-
ing husband ! Mrs. Collingwood had no hope
that there was any error. She knew him per-
fectly. It was rimpossible that there should be
two such t>eople in the world together, identi-
cal in mind ana in person. That bis hand-
writing had so completely changed seemed to
her unaccountable ; but it did not move her
faith in bis identity. And an explanation was
soon found for this ; for he bad lost his right
hand since his flight, and consequently wrote

CHAPTEB IIL
TO-MOEBOW — LIBKSTT.
There is no phrase of abuse so apparently
innocent and yet so catting and disturbing as
that, " I know all about yon." It asserts noth-
ing of which one can take hold, and yet it im-
fUes a great deal that may weU be offensive.
t is customary to say that the Ufe of the best
of men, could it be subjected to the full glare of
dayUght in aU its bearings, would be found
more or less spotty and blemished : and per-
haps it ia this secret consciousness of liidden in-
iquities that gives such force to the innuendo.
But in the mouth of Houlot, who you wiU re-
member made use of the expression, and thus
caused his speedy expulsion from my premises,
the phrase was one that gave us all considera-
ble uneasiness. Did be really know anything
about my connection with the firm of Colling-
wood Dawson ! It seemed hardly likely that he
would have come to borrow money of me, had
such been the case. But this, afterall.might hare
merely been a device to throw dust in our eyes.
His visit might have been a spying one, for the
purpose of seeing how the land lay. He might
Indeed have seen his wife and recognized her.
Mrs. Collingwood was fuU of terror lest such
should have been the ease. She dreaded that
he was coming to claim her. Every passing
footstep, every rine at the bell of the outer
gate, caused her a vivid throb of fear. For my
own part. I did not think the danger tbtis great
in that direction. It was hardly likely that a
man who had taken such pains to escape
from a tie that must have been pro-
foundly Irksome to him would wish
to renew it now. His habits were fixed
and eccentric, and probably he would be as
much dismayed at the prospect of being claimed
by his wife as she would at the idea of going
back to him. These thoughts I did not divulge
to Mrs. CoUingwood. They suggested to me,
however, a plan of action.
I determined to go and see M. Honlot to
beard the lion in his den. Probably I should
be Ul-treated and abused for my pains ; but it
was worth the trial. Houlot's house was, as I
have said, on the slope of one of the hiUs oveiv
looking the town, the top of which was fringed
with forest, while all down the sides were houses
with terraced gardens, full of greenery, and
with dividing walls covered thick with vines
and pear trees. It was a tall, timbered honse,
occupied by many f amiUes ; and a common stair-
case, rickety and creaky, but with fine old
carved oak balusters, led to the various floors.
Houlot lived on the fourth stage, X found ; and
I made my way up panting, and not without
fear lest the boards should give way beneath
me. A seamstress, who Was busUy at work in
one of the rooms with her door wide open and
her chUdren scattered abont the landing, indi-
cated the door of Houlot's room, and told me
that she had just seen him go in.
I knocked several times without any one tak-
ing notice of me. FinaUy, after I had made a
considerable din. the door was suddenly opened
ar.d Houlot stood before me.
" What do you want !" be cried, after glaring
at me a few moments from under his pent-house
brows. '. " Have you come to bring me the
money !"
" Let me come in and explain matters," X
said.
He looked douhtfuUy at me for a moment,
and then sullenly drew on one side and allowed
me to nass in. His room was bare of furniture,
except for one square deal table and a chair
without a back. In one comer of the room a
mattress and blanket were spread on tne floor,
in another a lot of books and papers were
heaped confusedly together, all covered by a
thick .mantle of dust. A small cooking-stove
stood in the middle of the room, the black iron
pipe from which went through a hole
into the huge chimney ; and a large open
firc-plnce, whtch had oiice warmed the room,
was covered with a rough framework of planks
and sacking. The aspect of the place was
squalid and comfortiess. but it had one redeem-
ing-feature— there was a splendid view from
the open window. A great fold of shining
river, inclosing a stretch of marsh-land and
wide green pr|kirie, doited with feathery aspens
and monumental poplars, among which showed
here and there a cluster of farm buUdings, and
an occasional church spire. A black morose-
looking windmUl, with sails pugnacionsly
stretched out, as if dariiig an attack from some
nineteenth-century Don Quixote, stood soUtary
on its grass toft Range upon range of hills
inclosed the landscape, dappled with tae shadow
of the lazy clouds ; with here a dark ravine,
and there a white gleaming chalk eUff.
"Yon are well placed here," I said, making
for the window. There was an overpowering
smell of brandy in the room, that made one teel
quite sick this fine Summer morning. " You
have a splendid view."
" Well enongh (or that," growlad Honlot

Houlot laughed hoarsely, knocked ont bis

longer. No ; I adopted another plan. At that

enough, although they caused me some anxions.
thought and preparation. I went down to a UtJ
tie-visited part of the coast with which I waa
well acquainted, and put up at an inn where t
was known. Taking my cue partiy from tha
weU-known farce of " Box and Cox," I went ouW
one momingearlyand deposited a suit of clotoea
in a Uttie niche in the cliffs : a wild and soUtary
spot rarely visited by any 11 vine creature. Later
in the day, I went out again, telling the people
of the inn that I was going to bathe. I left my
clothes on the tieacb and took to the w^ter. I
bad chosen my time so that the set of the tide
would carry me to the place where I bad de-
posited my clothes, and I di itted along with Ut-
tie exertion. Arrived at the spot I landed,
found my clothes aU rig^t, and put them on.
Then I started on foot along the coast till I
reached a road-side station, made my way to
Ijondon, and then crossed the Channel, intend-
ing to go to Paris. I thought that I should be
able to get literary employment there; for
French is as a second native tongue to me. My
mother was a Frenchwoman ; her name was
Houlot ; hence the name I adopted. But I took
this place on my way ; and on the journey I
feU from the roof of the diligence, and the whetl
went over my hand. Amputation "^vas necessa-
ry ; and by the time that I was cured, I had spent
all my Uttle store of money and owed some-
thing besides. But the people here were very
humane and kind. I set to work to write witit
my left band, and earned a little money mean-
whUe by teaching EngUsh: and by degrees I
got into the knack of writing again, and con-
tributed some articles to the EngUsh press, by
which I got a UtUe money. It was all a flash
in the pan ; my pupils fell away, my articles
were no longer acceptable. My friend here" —
pointing to the bottle — "was always at my el-
bow. Bnt I shall shake myself free one of these
days."
" And if It happened," I said, as he tlnished
and was silent sitting pnffing at the pipe that
had long since gone ont — *' if it happened that
the wife was still waiting for you — ^tfaat she had
heard a rumor of your existenee, and had come
to seek you ^
'• No ; don't talk of that for any sake !" he
cried, springing to his feet " Wretched and
miserable as I have been, I have never wished
myself again tied in that hateful knot There I

" But if she were rich, and able to give yon a

" Never, never !" he said. " What degrada-

" Never, never ! X would hide myself in the
remotest comer of the worid. Tell me, man,
what do you mean ! Yon know something ;
you are a spy, a traitor !"
Houlot looked nere and there aa if for a
weapon, and I thought it prudent to make
quickly for the door.
I went home and told Mrs. CoIUngwood all
that had occurred, excepting the horror that
M. Houlot had shown at the idea of retomins
to her. That I thought it most prudent to sup-
press. She seemed a Uttie softened, I thought,
when I told her his account of his disappearance
in the sea. and that his motive was a good one
as far as she was concerned.
We sat till late that night talking in the Utt'e
paviUon, the light from the windows of which
was refiected in the dork river. I fancied
every now and then I heard a footstep softly
pacing np and down the embankment between
us and the water's edge. I certainly thonght I'
had securely locked the garden gate, and never'
dreamed of our t>elug disturbed. Just as myj
gnest had risen to take her leave, the door sud-
denly opened, and M. Houlot stood upon the
threshold. Mrs. CoIUngwood screamed, and ran
to the furthest comer of the room, crouching
behind the window curtains. Houlot glared at
her for a moment, then slammed to the door abd
strode away. I ran after him.
" Yon have deceived me !" he said savagely,
as, breathless, I overtook him upon the em-
bankment; "and I, like a fool, beUeved yoo.
and pictured her to myself — stiU loving, still
faithful to the memory of a wretched being :
and I came to seek you, to know niore about
this wonderful phenomenon. And now I see
it all ; she d reads me as if I were a leper ! Well,
it matters not now; I am away to-morrow.
Some kind friends have raised a little money
for me ; I don't need your hrfp now. To-mor-
row before daylight I start on my way to maka
my claim for that which is mine own. Tell her
— teU her that she need not fear me. that I shaU
never trouble her, nor she me ! I have been a
slave long enough; but to-morrow, light; to-
morrow, freedom !"
"Take care what yon do," I said, "for the
person whom you Seek to ruin, whom .voti would
expose and bring to confusion, is the woman
whom you abandoned and left to the mercv of
a pitUess world 1 Every step yon take to that
end is over her, poor creature ! The harm yon
did before came right after mnch miserr ; tha
harm you wUl do now can never be cured.'"
He uttered an exclamation of rage and denair^'
and disappeared In the darkness. >
"Is he gone!" cried Mrs. Collingwood, aa B
returned once more to the paviUon.
"Yes. be is gone; he ia away toXionda&tiM

Cetjikshaitk. — The power of an illnstra-
tor could not be more strikingly shown than by
the fact that, after CTtcer Ticist, Dickens
refused to allow Cruikshank to illustrsta any
more of his books. Cmikshank made effects so
strong as to dwindle the eraphio merit of the
text. Dickens wished an illustrator who would
simply interpret his descrintlons. Cruikshank
added traits and peculiarities of his own to the
scenes and characters. For another anthor
Gmikahank did still greater service than for
Diukens. The long-drawn and often tedious
historical romances of William Harrison
Ainsworth would scarcely have lived so long, or
remained so popnlar, but for the intensely
strong and dramatic pictures with which Cruik-
shank illustrated thenL His portraits of Jack
Sheppard and Heme the Hunter, of Bluff
King Hal and Guy Fawkes, can never be
forgotten by those who have seen them, though
the incidents which they accompany may easily
slip the mind. Cruik.'ibank tincloubtefily won
his fame by sheer force of genius, added to an
enormous capacity for toil and enthusiastic
devotion to his art. Little circumstances often
brine men of talent into notice, and it may be
that he owed his first taste of notoriety — some-
what, at least— to his grotesque name. Once
heard, it was not likely to be forgotten. If his
name had been Smith, it might have taken
ten years longer for him to earn a living at etch-
ing. He was interesting; not only as an artist,
bnt as a man. At 85 be was still a bale, active-
bodied, bright-ered, cheerful old man, still able
to maintain the reputation of a hearty " good
fellow," with a still steady band and a still keen
and teeming: memory. One who saw him not long
ago describes him as " slightly below the mid-
dle height, spare but solid of frame, somewhat
long-armeil and short-legged, and very broad in
the chest. " On almost any pleasant morning he
might have been seen walldng with brisk
step and lieht-hearted expression along the
Hampstead road, his bright, blue-gray eyes
sparkling with merriment and good-nature ;
his high cheek-bones and bold, aquiline nose,
his firm, sharp-cut mouth, unhidden by mns-
'taehe or whiskers, and his massive, well-propor-
tioned, and still erect and vi^orona frame,
always elicting the attention of every passer-by.
To the last he was a good-naturedly vain old gen-
tleman ; and, having lost the greater part of his
hair, spent a good deal of time in ntillztag cer-
tain straylonglocksbyartfnllybringingthemto
swaep gracefnlly across his forehead. He was
foil of garrulous loquacity, and would sit at th e
festive board without even so mnc h as sipping a
f lass of wine or puffing a cigar — ^being a teeSo-
taler and a foe to tobacco — andteU merry stories
and yeciill blithe years of yore by the hour
together. The surpassing humor of his iUustra-
tlona sparkled in his speeeh ; the dramatia
force of soma of his etchings in Ainsworth
broke ont in hil impnlstve and vi-rid geatienla-
tion. Be was a typical hard-headed Briton la
the obstinacy with which he stnck to his side of
a question, his impalJence of contradiction, and
the doematio belligerency of his arguments.
Ho had seen very much of "life" In fts social
■ense, having begun his art career in the -last
year of the last centuir, and having been on
familiar terms with authors and artlsta from ih*

' Aeep— to this day there are men, who believe
they can get rich through "a oonneotion,"
wbeopaaa they can only keep a modest trade — and
ttsri^dltions change-very seldom, so tbat the
man who was competent to mastera routine was
competent to manage liie business fairiy welL
He had-clerks und^r him who knew everything
he did, foremen quite, educated anongh for
the work, workmen who never dreamed
of a litrlka or thought it possible tbey
shonld transfer tiieir labor, and ea^tal
enongh to meet any ordinary risk. His
machinery was a little antiquated, bnt adequate,
nevertheless, and his markets were settled by
tradition and custom quite as- mnch as by any
use of his own intelligence. There was no
need of much governing power, for his em-
ployes were not rebellious, and not as large as
regiments ; there was little necessity for adroit
finance, for the business was worked on a suf-
ficient reserve fund ; and no need was felt for
statesmanship, for the changes among nations
and in the currents of commerce, and even in
the labor market, passed almost nnf elt. The
principal requirements were assiduity, careful-
ness in overseeing, and a certain form of pru-
dence, the prudence which proportions means to
ends. The owners o£ such qualities, once in pos-
session of " good" businesses— usually founded
by persons -with unusual capacity for detailed
economies — if they enjoy fair good luck, often
flourished, grew what was then considered rich,
and founded " houses," which their descendants
conducted in still more careful fashion. Men ot
this type, country bankers. " warm" manufac-
turers, steady tradesmen, excellent but modest
contractors, must be known to most of our
readers, and their apparent want of quick intel-
ligence spread far and wide the idea, once uni-
versal, that " in business " Benjamin Franklin,
with his hungry wisdom, was the suflicient in-
structor; that mind did not particularly
matter, and that the dndl and " solid" one of
the family ought to be the' one to go into " the
citv." the bai£, or foundry, or factory, or shop.
This belief has lasted down to our own day, and
IS, we twUeve, one main cause of the weakening
of old -firms. For all the conditions have
changed. Everything ha-s altered in scale. Pop-
ulation has increased, wealth has increased,
knowledge has increased, till every bt^iness
greater than a retail trade feels the general
movement of the world, and is affected by con-
tinsencles of which the old men of business
never thought. Profit is gained more and more
through minute percentages spread over an
amazing area. The successful manufacturer or
metal-founder employs so many men, and they
are so Independent that he needs many of the
qualities of a statesman merely to keep them in
order, or provide against their ^meutes. Two or
three of the great railway contractors of the ex-
cited period, notably the late Mr. Brassey, were
Bismarcks in their way ; and one at least still •
living, and therefore not to be named,
tras a coarser Cavour. The late Mr. Bag|e-
hot, a profound observer of men, always said
that he knew scarcely any State Department
which required so much brain force of a kind as
the position of traffle-manager on a first-class
railway, and there are shops in existence which
demand more energy in merely conducjting
them, in dri-ving and keeping everybody up to
his work, than a crack regiment did of old, and
as much knowledge of foreign countries as a
permanent Secretary usually possessed. The
finusneing of such businesses has become a sci-
ence. Profit depends upon rapid " overturn,"
and rapid overturn cannot be effected upon
moderate resources, unless those resources sup-
ply not only money, but credit, direct pecuniary
credit, we mean, the power of getting large sup-
C" B of cash at a moment's notice; and the
nee of a great business, therefore, takes
something of a financial statesman's power.
The" choice of agents, too, becomes arduous
worlt. Average men will not quite do when
transactions are so large, more especially when
subordinates, whose instinctive wish is always
to get into a comfortable routine, are wanted to
disnlay the.energy of partners, and the men of
business who can select others above the aver-
-age are few. So. too, are the minds which, to
use acollegiate Illustration, are equal in classics
and mathematics, in whichrtside not only thegov-
emina: faculty and the financial, but the faculty
of seeing whether an improrement, often scien-
tific, is worth while; whether a patent to save
10 per cent, on your coal will certainly be worth
its cost in money and worries. Above all, there
Is need nowadays in business tof a certain
breadth of mind, a readlnes.s to receive new im-
pressions, a capacity to see a little ahead, a fac-
ulty for swerving suddenly from the accustomed
line of business in pursuit of new profits, which
demands very high ability, and cultivated abil-
ity, too, of a sort which once went exclusively
into the higher professions. — 77is Spectator.
RosslA AS A Civilized Power. — It has
been said of Russia that it is her partlenlar de-
sire to be esteemed a civilized power. She Is
as sensitive about any marks which connect
her with Asiatic Ignorance and savagery as is
the fifth in descent from a negress about re-
maining indications of black blood. One who
woald please her must pretend to see nothing
about her that is not strictly European — ^noth-
ing that is behind the most advanced of na-
tions. U this be truly her weakness, she sub-
jected the veneer on which she wears her polish
to a cruel ordeal in undertaking to carry on a
war under the very eyes, as it were, of Europe.
A Cuban hound may be domesticated and made
to exhibit much ot the docility and affection
natural to dogs of a softer breed ; he will be
playful, and will lick the hand in return for
caresses, and his eyes will wait upon the eyes of
his master ; but let him smell blood, and he will
soon let you know who his ancestors were. The
Muscovites, no doubt, believed that they would
make this war in the most chivalrous style as
regarded both strategy and conduct Their be-
lief in their military ability was a great blon-
der, but it was a greater blunder to imagine that
their barbarians could observe any measure In
deling with those who might be at their mercy.

—Ihi Argcif,
Equality. — The w ell-being of many comes
out more and more distinctly as time goes on,
aa the object -we must pursbe. An individual or
a class, concentrating their efforts upon .their
o-wn well-being exclusively, do but beget trou-
bles both for oilers and for themselves also.
No Individual lite can be truly prosperous,
passed, as Obermann says, in the midst of men
who suffer— poss^au fl^i^teu des ginirationt qui
touffrtnt. To the noble soul, it cannot be
happy ; to the ignoble, it cannot be secure.
Socialistic and communistic schemes have gen-
erally, however, a fatal defect ; they are con-
tent with too low and material a standard of
well-being. That instinct of perfection, which
is the master^power In humanity, always rel^
at this, and frustrates the work. Many are to
he made partakers ot well-being, tme ; but the
idea of well-being is not to be, on that
account, lowered and coarsened. M. de La-
velye, the political economist, who Is a Belgian
and a Protestant, and whose te.'itimony therefore
we may the more readily take about France,
iays that Prance, being the country of ^Europe
where the soil is more divided than anywhere
except in Switzerland and Norway, is at the
same time the country where material well-
being is most -widely spread, where wealth has
of late years increased most, and where popu-
lation is least outrunning the limits which, for
the comfort and progress of the working classes
themselves, seem necessary. This may go for
a good deaL It supplies an answer to what Sir
Erskine May saysalwut the bad effects of equal-
ity Upon French prosperity. But I will quote
to you from Mr. Hamerton what goes, I think,
for yet more. Mr. Hamerton is an excellent
observer and reporter, and has lived for many
years in France. . He says of the French peas-
antry that^ they are exceedingly Ignorant. So
they are. But he adds : " They are at the same
time full of intelligence ; their manners are ex-
cellent, they have delicate perceptions, they
have ^t, they have a certain refinement which
a brutalized peasantry could not possibly have.
If you talk to one of taemat his own home, or In
his field, he will enter into conversation
with you quite easily. Wnd sustain his part in a
perfectly becoming way, with a pleasant combi-
nation of dignity and quiet humor. The inter-
val between him and a Kentish laborer is enor-
mous." This is, ind^d, worth your attention.
Of course, all mankind are, as Mr. Qladstone
says, of our own flesh and blood. But you
know how often it happens in England that a
cultivated person, a person of the sort that Mr.
Charles Sumner describes, talking to one of the
lower class, or even of the middle class, feels,
and cannot but feel, that there is somehow a
wall of partition between himself and the other,
that they seem to belong to two different worlds.
Thoughts, feelings, perception, susceptibilitlesi
language, mannen — eveiTthing — are different.
Whereas, -with a French peasant, the most cul-
tivated man may find himself In sympathy,
feel that he is talking to an equaL This
Is im experience which has been made a
thousand times, and which may be
made again any day. And It may be
carried beyond the range of mere conversation,
itmay be extended to things like pleasures, rec-
reations, eating and drinking, and so on. In
general the pleasures, recreaoons, eatlnic and
drinking of English people, when once you get
below that class whien Mr. Charies Sumner
calls the class of gentlemen, are to one of that
class unpalatable and impossible. In France
there Is not this Incompatibility. The gentle-
man feels himself in a world, not alien or repul-
sive, but a world where people nmke the same
sort of demands noon life, in things of this
sort, wbich he himself does. In all these re-
spects France is Che country where the people,
as distinguished from a wealthy refined class,
most lives wtiat we call a humane life, the Ufa
of dvUized man. Of course, fastidious per-
sons can and do pick, holes in It.
There is just now. In France, a no-
({tsM-newly revived, full of pretension, full of
ain and graces and disdains ; but its sphere
Is narrow, and out of its own sphere no one
cares very mnch for it There is a general
equality in a hum.tne kind of life. This is the
secret of the passionate attachment with which
France inspires all Frenchmen, In spite of her
fearful troubles, her checked prosperity, her
disconnected units, and the rest of it. 'There
Is so much of the goodness and agreeableness
of life there, and for so many. It is the secret
of her having been able to attach so ardently to
her the Qerman and Protestant people of Al-
sace, while we have been so little able to attach
the Celtic and Catholic people of Ireland.
France brings the Alsatians into a social system
so full of the goodness and agreeableness of
life ; we offer to the Irish no such attraction.
It is the secret, finally, of the prevalence which
we have remarked in other continental coun-
tries of a legislation tendinir, like that of
France, to a social equality. The social system
which equity creates in France ia, in the eyes
of others, such a giver of the goodness and
agreeableness of life, that they seek to get the
goodness by getting the equality. — Uatlhta

Akdrias Jeftichjb-w, the Hairt Man. —
A remarkable instance of the transmission of
anomalous characteristics is found in the case
of Andrian Jeftlchjew, who, three or four years
ago, was exhibited with his son Fedor Jef Uch-
jew in Berlin and Pari& They were ealled In
Paris les hommtt-chiim, or dog-men, the father's
face being so covered -with hair as to
present a striking resemblance to the
face of a Skye terrier. Andrian was thus de-
scribed : " He is about 55 years of age, and Is
said to be the eon ot a Bossian soldier. In or-
der to escape the derision and the unkind nsage
of his feUow--villager8, Andrian in early life-
fled to the woods, where, for some time, he
lived in a cave. During this period of seclusion
he was much given to drunkenness. His men-
tal condition does not seem to have suffered,
however, and he is on the whole of a kindly
and affectionate disposition. It may be of in-
terest to state that he Is an orthodox member of
the Bnsso-Greek Church, and that, degraded as
he is inteUectuaUy,, he has very definite notions
about heaven and the hereafter. He hopes to
introduce his frightful coimtenance into the
court of heaven, and he devotes all the money
he makes, over and above his outlay for
creature comforts, to purchasing the
prayers of a devout community of monks
In nis native -village. Kostroma, after his
mortal career Is ended. He is of medium
stature, but very strongly built. His excessive
capillary development is not tme hair, but
simply an abnormal growth of the down or fine
hairs which usually cover nearly the entire sur-
face of the human body. Stricfiy speaking, be
has neither head hair, b««rd. mustache, eye-
brows, nor eyelashes, tneir place being taken
by this singular growth Of long silky down, in
color this is of a dirty yellow ; it is about three
inches in len^h all over the face, and feels Uko
the hair of a Newfoundlanddosr. Tbeveryeye-
Uds are covered with this long hair, while flow-
ing locks come out of his nostrils and ears. On
his body ar$ isolated patches, strewed but not
thickly with hairs one and a half to two Inches
long." Dr. Bertillon, of Paris, compared a hair
from Andrian's chin with a very fine hair from
a man's beard, and found that the latter was
three times as thick as the former ; and a hair
from Andrian's head is only one-half as
thick as an average human hair. Prof.
Vlrchow, of Berlin, made careful inquiry
Into the family history of Andrian Jeftlch-
jew. So far as could be learned. Andrian warf
the first in whom this wonderful hirsuteness
had been noticed. Neither his reputed fatber
nor his mother presented any peculiarity of the
kind, and a brotlier and sister of his. -who are
stlU living, are in no way remarkable for capil-
lary devfiopment. The son Fedor, who was
exhibited in iompany with Andrian, was illeg-
itimate, and about three years of age. Andrian s
legitimate cUldren, a son and a daughter,, both
died young. Nothing is known of the former ;
but the daughter resembled the fatner. ** Fedor
is a sprightly child," said the account from
which we have already quoted, "and appears
more intelligent than the father. The growth
of down on his face is not so hea-yy as to con-
ceal his features, but there is no doubt that
when the child comes to maturity he will be at
least as hirsute as his parept. Ihe hairs are as
white and as soft as the fur of the Angora cat,
and are longest at tbe outer angles of the eyes.
There Is a thick tuft between the eyes, and the
nose is weU covered. The mustocne joins the
whiAkers on each side, after the English fashion,
and this circumstance gives to accurate pic-
tures of the child a ludicrous resemblance to a
well-fed Englishman of about 60. As in the
father^s case, the inside of Fedor's nostrils and
ears has a thick crop of hair." "Both father
and son are almost toothless, Andrian having
only five teeth, one in the upper jaw and four
in the lower, while the child has only four
teeth, aU in the lower jaw. In both cases the
four lower teeth are all incisors. To the right
of Andrian's one upper tooth there still remains
the mark of another which has disappeared.
That be-jiond these six teeth the man never had
any others is evident to any one who feels the
gums with the finger." The deficiency of teeth,
accompanied as It Is by what is in reality a de-
ficiency not a redundancy of nalr— for Andrian
and his soit have no real hair — accords well
"with Darwin's view, that a constant corre-
lation exists between hair and teeth.
He mentions as an illustration the
deficiency of teeth in hairless dogs.
The tusks of the boar, again, are
greatly reduced under domestication, and the
reduction Is accompanied by a corresponding
diminution of the bristles. He mentions also
the cas > of Julia Pastrana, a Spanish dancer or
opera singer, who had a thick masculine beard
and a hairy forehead, while her teeth were so
redundant that her mouth projected, .and her
face had a gorilla-like appearance. It should
rather be said that in general those creatures
which present an abnormal development in the
covering of their skin, whether in the way of
redundancy or deficiency, present generally,
perhaps always,, an abnormal dental develop-
ment, as we see in sloths and armadiUoes on the
one lumd, which have the front teeth deficient,
and in some branches of the whale family on
the other. In which the teeth are redundant
either in number or in size. In individual
members of tne human family it certainly is not
always the case that tbe development of the
hair and teeth are directly correlated ; for some
who are bald when quite young have excellent
teeth, and some who have lost piost of their
teeth while still on the right side of 40 have ex-
cellent hair to an advanced old age. — Th» Com-

A Bba-vc Sheep. — ^Toby, the sheep,
hated the whole canine nice. One day when
the Captain and his pet were taking their usual
walk on the promenade, there came on shore
the skipper of a Falmouth ship, accompanied
by a very large formidable-looking dog. And
the dog only resembled his master, as yon ob-
serve dogs usnally do. As soon as he saw Toby
be commenced to set his dog upon him ; but
Toby had seen him coming and was quite en
garde ,* so a long and fierce battle ensued, in
which Toby was slightly wounded and the dog's
head was severely cut. Quite a multitude had
assembled to witness the fight, and the ships'
riggings were alive with sailors. At one time the
brutal owner of the dog, seeing his pet getting
worsted, attempted to assist him ; but the
crowd would have pitched hltn neck and crop
into the river, had hs not desisted. At last both
dog and sheep were exhausted, and drew off,
as if by mutual consent The dog seated
himself close to the outer edge of
the platform, which was about three feet higher
than the river's bank, and Toby went, as he was
wont to do, and stood between his master's legs,
resting his head fondly on the Captain's clasj^
hands, but never took his eyes oft the foe. Just
then a dog on board one of tbe ships happened
to bark, and the Falmouth dog looked around.
This waa Toby's chance, and he did not miss it
or his enemy either. He was upon him like a
bolt from a catapult One furious blow knocked
the dog off the platform, next moment Toby had
leaped on top of Jhim, ttnd was chasing the yellins
animal toward his own shio. There is no doubt
Toby would have crossed the plank and foUowed
bim on board, had not his feet sUpped and pre-
cipitated him into the river. A few minutes
afterward, when Toby, dripping with wet, re-
turned to the platform to look for his master, he
was greeted with ringing cheers ; and many was
the piastre spent in treating our woolly mend
to fruit. Toby was the hero of Galatz from
that hour ; but the Falmouth dog never ven-
tured on shore again, and his master as seldom
as possible. — Chavibert't Journal.
The Destint of the Akoiekts.'— The
ancients beUeved that at the point where man's
rule and' power over the forces of the world
ended, there destiny began ; and if a ship -was
-wrecked at sea, or if a country was devastated
by an epidemic, as such catastrophes were
cleariy not brought about by man's -wishes or
desires, they thought that they could only be
caused by some mysterious superhuman power
who meddled with, and ruled over, human af-
fairs. We cannot certainly be surprised that
such should have been the views and opinions
of persons who were ignorant of the fact that a
storm or an epidemic is but a natural effect
resulting from natural causes, and that its
occurrence is governed by laws as certain and
invariable as that of gravitation. In a country
where there were supposed to be gods Of the
sea and gods of the woods, rulera of tha wind
and deities of the river, there manifestly was
but little room in which man's free-'WiU could
assert itself. But now, since we know that we
have in truth only to contend with natural
forces, and those, too, of a constant and uniform
character, we can by studying their laws render
them subservient to onr aishes, andmake them
become our ministers instead ot allowing them
to be our masters. The electric current, which
in the form of Ughtning was once the fiery
sword of an angry deity, has now become the
willing messenger of man, and carries his com-
mands to the uttermost parts of the earth.
Thus one ot the most marvelous and tearful in-
struments of destiny, as it appeared to the in-
habitants of Rome and Athens some 20 cen-
ttiries ago, has in these latter days lost much of
its terrible character ; and, to the great disgust
of Jupiter and the other lords of Olympus, little
Mr. Dilettente at his scientific stances can give
you aa much lightning as you -wish. The fancy
and imagination are more powerful, and less
subject to the dictates of reason, in the
night than they are in tbe day-time ; tbe land
of darkness may be considered as their proper
and natural habitat ; and, like the bats, they
are most busy when the stin Ixas left us. Igno-
rance is a kind of darkness, and when mortals
had not the remotest idea of what was the cause
or nature of an ecUpse, and when they knew
"less than nothing" about electricity, it Is
hardly a matter to be wondered at that, as
knovriedge had omitted to furnish the universe
for them -with facta and realities, they aUowed
imagination to supply the deficiency with the
first fictions and &ncies that presented them-
selves. The world was to them a tabula rasa,
and they wrote on it whatever nonsense they
thought fit. — Xtnalen't Maqazine.
Enoush HAZiKa. — ^With the exception of
the shooting, things Uke the " hazing" ot Lane
have been done in English universities. Un-
popular men have been consigned to that singu-
larly convenient pool ot water in a certain quad-
rangle. Oreat quantities of " hay" have been
made by the easy process of piling up all the
furniture in a room on the table, and reversing
the positions of books and boots. These sports
are perhaps less popular than tiiey once were.
" There are our young barbarians all at play,"
Mr. Arnold says in a fine passage about Oxford,
but they play less at " drawing" their neighbora
than they used to do. Petards may oceaslonally
be fixed on the doors ot disagreeable tnton, but
only, according to unwritten bnt understood
laws, in the eaily part ot the month of Novem-
ber. The great difference between the English
universities and the American ones in the mat-
ter of horse-play is this — that Freshmen in Eng^
land are unmolested. Long ago, perhaps 20
yeara ago, it was not uncommon. In very dark-
ened ooUeges, to try to hoax Freshmen. They
were expected to go and. see the term divide,
and so for^ But jokes, as Byron says of re-
ligion, begin to wear out after some centuries.

TBSWAI'BISE, THE -WOODLAKI^ Aia> THE
tThe wfld flowers have come ; yet how few
ot .US go ont to -weleome them. Ctaie -would thliik
that after a sordid 'Winter ot waitihg everybody
would hasten to the woods for refreshment in
theSweet atmosphere of their beauty. It is the
privilege of the walker- to enjoy the closest in-
timacy with natnre, for he goes to her secret
places and sits down with her in the fondest in-
tercourse. To come to tbe woods and gather
flowers, 'and leam something of them. or,.better
than facts, take in the peaceful spirit ot their
Uvea. As a special favor, I wlU take yon where
the beantiesot the Spring arebasking in bowen
roofed -with a fretwork of silver branches and
erimsonleaves, underanazuredome. Yetaolo-wiy
and simple are they that you may trample their
matohless beauty imder toot, and the charms ot
their abode are so harmonious and unobtrusive
that yon may pass them without a glance.
Come, therefore, -with a reverent head, and an
eye that seeks- the greatest beauty in the
simplest forms.
We take the Iiong Island Bidlroad to Locust
Valley ; then foUow the road going to .BayvUle
tlU we enter tbe pines, and then turn into the
-woods on either hand. Natnre is so suggestive
that her first word to yon begins an endless vol-
ume of facta and fancies. The difiiculty is not
to see enongh, bnt llttie enongh, for study. So
you need not move from your seat at the foot
of this oak to find more beauty than you can
appreciate. The earth is stiU In her brown
Winter wrappings. Most of the trees are bare ;
they moan in the wind, as it stiU fearing De-
cember blasto; their bare limbs shiver, and two
old fellows with their heads together grind and
squeak with discontent. And yet how exqui-
site is the beauty of bare tress, showing aU the
fine modeling ot their limbs, and the perfect
logicof nature in suiting means to ends. Their
smooth bark gleams in the sunshine overhead,
farther down the hill, and on still
furtiier, through their fine network of
brown and gray. In such a light
they have a peculiar refinement; their
forms are scarcely defined, yet they flash
and sway as -with a hidden lite. The earth
seems very sober in Uer brown colors, and weU
she may, when so many of her children are
dead, "rhe leaves are aU stiff, and the grass Ues
in a lifeless mass on the ground ; the thistle has
bowed his hoary head, never to rise again ; the
golden-rod, gray and shriveled, trembles in his
last days. Indeed. Ithe whole company of last
Summer's festival, so full of grace in every form
and motion, has left the woods, and all that re-
main are here and there a tattered form, that
motims and totters in the scene.
There is also perpetual life in the woods.
Here are ferns that have lived through the
Winter, and feathery mosses, now as fresh and
green as they wtre last Fall, but perhaps a Uttle
more ruddy with the season's exposure ; and
gray old mosses that never seem to die, but hold
their own in any weather; and again dull
bronze mosses that lie in wait patiently for
whatever the seasons bring, and seem the richer
in color after every change and every new look
you take into their secret recesses. The part-
ridge-'oerry -vine, -with its leaves like coupled
hearts, looks out from the brown leaves with a
cheerful air. The glossy laurel shines ont of
the dullness -with some complacency, for al-
though her form is angular and stiff, she is fore-
most in this time of need with her strong, dark
green. Indeed, the evergreens of the woods are
particularly interesting after the Winter has re-
leased the earth and we begin to look for life ;
they seem to be perpetual blessings, unheeded
In times of prosperity, but very dearin distress.
But beneath the dead brown there are bright-
er colors of new life. Here and tnere among
the dry leaves a bunch of new grass or a cluster
of new shoots from some early root makes a Ut-
ile oasis. Look still more closely and see Uttie
sprouts, brown and red heads, peeping up be-
tween the covers ; many already stuid up quite
tall, with crisp, firm forms of steady growth.
There are also little clustera of silvery leaves
just issusng from a bed of brown moss ; larger
leaves, already bronzed in the weather, lying
broad and flat around their centre; many just
starting, -with the down stiU on them, and
others pushing out headlong, with erratic in-
clinations hither and thither before the upright
course of later growth; and stiU others compact,
each closely folded on itself, with some secret
not to be seen, or even guessed, through its
, present re^rve. Indeed, the ground seems aUve
with Uttle beings peeping at you from their
brown beds, and nodding in the -wind with the
?uick. light ways ot youth. Many of them are
amiliar faces ; tbe prince's pine ^ows his royal

commonifive-finger deserves recognition for his
upright carriage and tidy form ; the star ot
Bethlehem shows no flowers, bnt Ite beds ot
-vigorous blades are tbe strongest green in the
woods. Here is a young form of exceedingly
graceful motion ; it is even languid, swaying on
its tall, slender stem. Ite soft leaves, deeply
divided, are a dark red-brown ; their surface Is
a fine velvet, and their edges are as -wavy as a
ringlet. An old blackberry -vine has a touch of
human nature in him, for besides presenting his
thorns to everything, he shows a snUen purple
hue to the young sboote that -wlU soon replace
his old leaves with new. Indeed, aU theee
growths of Spring have an exquisite beauty
that haa always inspired the poets. Even the
weeds have now the peculiar attraction ot youth,
and a lovelineas not, recognized, at least when
the stiength ot maturity removes them from
our symiwthy.
Bnt where are the flowen f They are hidden
in cozy places, and we must hunt for them.
Each one has ite own preference in climate and
soil, and you must leam their habite and tastes
It you would know just where to find them.
Each meeting you have -with them increases
your friendshin, and ev«y circumstance ot time
and place adds to your' pleasure. How you
went, where, and when, to find them the last
time make the groundwork of nukny delightful
memories, too subUe — too sacred, perhaps — for
any eye or ear. They become the text for ser-
moxu^ and the ostensible theme for love hidden
far deeper than the flower within the bud. By
the magic ot association they become a part of
your Inmost life, and the woods are then peo-
pled for you with the fairest forms of fancy.
The language of flowers is not then a printed
page, but a living symbolism of the tender and
tbe beautiful. Here is the. anemone ; it trem-
bles as you look at it. There is the hepatica,
with a modest and beautiful face, and a braatn
Bweetiy scented, and yet so delicately that halt
her lovers know it not. She comes in her old
dark-brown suit, with a crimson flush. The ai^
butns is just appearing beneath the leaves. It
ia the sweetest flower of the Spring, though it
blooms right on the mold, and scarcely lete the
sun peep into its fair face. If you know their
haunts you can find vialsts, the cuckoo Sower,
white and pink geraniums, and many others
that wiU delight your eye with their beauty,
and your heart with their suggestive associa-
tions.
The history ot flowers is very interesting as
a record of man's development. Take, for ex-
ample, their astiological period, when they
wine (ho viotima ot toe most at>snTd theories.
It -was sapnosed that each part of the human
body, a? weU as the entire man, was controlled
by a planet. A friendly planet caused the
health, and an unfriendly one the disease, of
each organ. In this way tbe quarrels of tbe
gods or planete were shared by man in his ooUc

turbs the fancy and breeds Imsginationa like itwtit,

cared by talcing only two spoonfuls of the synn of
this herb after supper two hours, when you fo to
bed. But whether this does it by sympathy or an-
tipathy is some doubt in astrology. I know there II
a great antipathy between Saturn and -Venna in nat-
ter of procreation ; rea, such an one that the barian,
Bess of Saturn can be removed by none but Venasi
nor the lust of -Venus b« retailed b;^ none but Satozil;
but I am not of opinion this is done this way, andmy
reason is, because these vapors, though in qaaUty
melancholy, yet by their flying upward seem to M
somewhat lerlal; therefore I rather think ,it ii doiM
by sympathy. Saturn being exalted in Libra In ths
house of -Venus."
Such were the notions -of plante 200 yedis
ago. Theonly wonder is that the delicate thlngi
lived through it all. Science has at last eon-
lined the stera to their orbits, sent the gods to
settle their disputes on Olympus rather than In
the liver and spleen of man, and removed theae
dreadftil imputations from the flo-wen ot tha
fields and woods.
VWe have strolled north-eastward toward Bay-
vUle, through woods, fields, and roads, and at
last come to Bayville, where a magnificent view
of the Sound Is to be enjoyed. Then go west,
either along the beach or the country roads, to
Matinecock Point. The meadows nave their
own signs and seasons quite as marked
as those of the woods. Here and there
the dull sod Is pointed with gray
mtillen leaves, all ready for the dropa
of dew or rain that shine on them like trans-,
parent silver. Sorrel is tbe earliest bouquet ; .
Ite red, orange, brown, and green leaves are aa
bright as flowers. Btinches ot young clover
are clean and fresh against the earth. Tha
Winter wheat Is wonderfully rich as the sua
llgbte It with a gold color through tbe green.
On a warm bank of sod. sheltered by tbe oomei
of a wall and a forest above, I saw ihree dande-
lions last week. They were a miracle to the eye
in the midst of so much brown and gray. Tha
last I saw in IS'?? were no the Hud-
son on Christmas Day. They were ob-
jecta of such interest and admlrsp
tion that many neighbora visited them
and talked about them. Tbe village blacksmith
made a special trip to see them ; but some one
bad too much greed and too littie sentiment to
let them live out their short glory ; for they
were tedsen away to a fate I have often wi^ed
to know. The trees in sheltered places about
a marah are becoming quite consciotis- The wil-
low Is doubling the golden veil over ite dark
limbs ; the black alder is shooting ont ite porpla
catkins ; the elm is waving ite delicate plumea ;
and the maple, blooming with tufte of coral
flowen on ite silver boughs, blushes crimson at
ite own conspicuous beauty. The muck and
ooze of the spring-boles have as yet nothing
better to show than the luxuriant skunk-
cabbage. It has lost ite purple pagoda, with
an Oriental curl to ite roof, imd a nermit-like
head inside almost shut from the world. The
poor fellow is in bad odor, and still compelled to
endure the contempt perpetuated In his name.
On Fox Island you will find the prickly pear—
Uyou put yourhandonit.
The walk on the beach is delightful. Now
vou skirt along tbe brown salt meadows;
wander among huge bouldera Imbedded in the
sand ; pass an inviting house and grounds, or
pause tinder the grove on a bluff to admire the
view. The sweeping bays near by, the waves
breaking in running curves, the great expanse
of blue water dotted with sails, and the oppo-
site shore of bluffs, beaches, villages, spires, and
foresta all inspire contented enjoyment
with tiieir larse and peaeafnl spirit.
Then you go on again along the edee of the
watra-, gather shells and pebbles till your
pockete ore running over, study, the delicate
sea-weeds spread as red, ereen, or yellow veins
over the white stones, and still you listen to
the waves, the birds, and you look aj^iu over
the -water before turning to the roads and the
ways of men. Before going -down Dosoris-
lane to Glen Cove you may like to see the most
regalflowerof our gardens; but yon must not
despise the wild flowera in their humbler way.
Mr. Burgess* greenhouses are filled -with
the most superb of rosea, the Marechal
Niel; some of the vines are as large Jia your
arm. Mr. Caswell, of Newport, bought one ot
these plante for $100 — that must have been
wonderful. It was eight feet high, and loaded
with more than 150 roses as large as sauoera.
But, after all. the -wiidwood flowers are equally
deligbtfol in their places ; indeed, their scent of
the woods, and their shy, modest beauty, make
them even dearer to the lover of nature. Hnrry
home, therefore, with your anemones, hepati-
cas, and arbutus; give these Spring beauties
your choicest -vase, even the Greuan urn that
inspired Keats, and cherish them tenderly sa
emblems of the pure and the beantifoL

3&. Bnsz, of New-Torlc, commented upon the ex-
trsTazanea of the Post Ottce Department eontrast-
iag the flgnm of the expenditnres ia 1860 and
1877, (914,000,000 and 934,000,000.) and show-
lag that in 1S60 the number of mail lontes was
8.901, agnlnst R,234 in 1877, and thai the
aasrcKate Irngth of routes in 1860 waa
SWL594 miles i^alnst 292,320 in 1877.
Vhe difference in the number and leaoth of routes
did not account tor the difference in ezpeasa. "-He
found one explanation of the increased Cost in- tha
£Kt that tlie compensation of Postmasters and Poat
Offlce clerks was in 1860 95,500,000, a<rainst 910.-
500.000 in 1877. He compared the cost of the
Brooklyn Post Offlce in 1860. when the city had a
population of 266.000, with that of Peoria, HI,
with 20.000 inhabitants In 1877, the foimer being
(for salary of Postmaster and for clerk hire) 95,368,
and the latter 98.200. He aisued that there was
nothing in tha fiteiUties given, nothing in the in-
n«»a» of population, and nothing in the ineresBe of
the serriea to warrant the increase of the coat in
1877 to 910,500,000, aa against 93.500,000 in
1860.
;Mr. B4nB, of Indiana, replied to ilt. Beebe. Aa
to Mr. Beehe's comparison of the cost of the postal
aerrice in I860 and in 1877. Mr. Baker reminded
him that the proper teat of cost was the amonnt of
businees done, and on tliat point he showed that the
rerenues of the department in 187? were oTcr 927,.
POO,000,aaagaiastsome98,500,000iBl860. Uader
the Democratie Administratioa in 1860 thera^iad
beenadefldtof over 96,000.000, and at the sime
late there would be over 912,000,000 of deficit in
1877, wbereas thia bill only called for an appropria*
iion from the Treasarr of aome 94.000,000. He
Oierefore elaimed that there was more economy in
.iie administration of tlie postal sarrica ia 1S77 than
there had l>een in 1860. _^
Mr. CHiTTzaDZS. of Kew-York, suggested that
when the details of the Post Office business were
thoroughly investigated it wonld )» fonn'd that there
were more abuses connected with it thsn with any
pther branch of the paUio service. He kwUaved
that the abuses were chiefly in transportation. He
l>eUeved that some r&ilroads were paid at least
double what they ooj^bt to be paid, and he believed
that in the Star service there were equal almses.
He thought that a commission should be appofirted
to investigate the qnestioo, and to asceitaia how,
without any detriment to the pnblie service, tha
Poat Oflce Department can be nude self-snstioning
— «a It ought ta ba made end aa it ia tn Sngland.
Mr. DraszLL, of Minnesota, raslied to the eritl-
dsma aa to tha extraraganca of tba'Foat Olflca De-
partnaDt and eontaaded that that Departmaat
sraa ajmiulitared ifiih proper economy. Aa to' the
exorbitant compensation of Poatmasters, he said
tkattha eompensatlOB of Town Collactors, Town
I^DXonen, and Town ConstaWea, waa gtaatar than
Diatof Postmasters.

the news, andto|aaat politinl friends— was also f
day to ba remembered with pleasure by propriatoi;
patrons, and servants. Toward noon a ralaxatloa
of the usual discipline of the house waa obiarved,
and after dinner tile diadpliae waa abandoned alto,
gather. The score or more of colored waiters ia the
house— some of whom have been in tlie plaee 20
years — are a band of very good singers, and they
owe their sJdU in large measure to tlie pa.
tlenee and perseyerance of Mrs. Sebenek,
who has from time to time, on Sunday!,
gathered tlie men in the dining-room, p^vidad aa
aecompitniment on the melodeon. and gently co|n-
pelled them to join in ainging Moody and Sankey
songs that they liked wdl, and negro melodlea that
they Uked better. These singers weiia yesterday
called upon after dinner to sing, and. under tbe'lead.
erahipof "Scoti"— who was probably Buda leader
because he had the qnicktat wit and tha largest
mouth of any man la the body ot waiters — they sang
several ot their favorite songs. After din-
ner they were marshaled under their leader
in the bar.room, where the proprietor and
a.party of about 50 New.JeTsey poUtleians, inelnding
men in and out of olBee, and several other patrons of
the hotel, held a i>ort of musical leyee. Scott'a Band
ranged themselves In front of the bar, and having
snag a sang, they had only to wheal In their places
to receive the encouragement from the barkeeper
which tlie jolly host insisted upon giving them. The
noise of the mosic and the sight ot artides ot furni-
ture going out at the doora on the ehoulders of men
bron^t crowds in from the street and aa the aingers
grew warm with frequent stimnlatiag, their songs
grew louder, and "Scott" gratifled bis inventive
genius by repeating rude bat good-natured impro.
vised songs in praise of tiie ** eld massa," not hesl-
taUng to give notice that ha "wasn't a man to be
bluffed off,^' and hinting very broadly that they ex-
peeted soon to enter his service in a newundaitaking.
Tliey were' rewarded for their efforts by 'a generous
collection of silver. Sebenek waa in his foliiest mood
when this concert liroke up, and everybody whoeame
along at 4 o'clock found the coriu fiyina tieely from
champagne bottles, and the old Merchants' Hotel
do^g up in a festive manner, while the air was
thick with regrets that tlia old-fashioned place was to
dose to the patrons who had known it so long and
favorably. The furniture and fixtures are to be aold
at auction on Monday. No guests were reeaived
after 'noon yesterday. The foimer permanent pa*
trona have found other quarters.

tidpation of tha Spring priie-meeting. The sun

the targets glistened with fresh paint The refresh-
ment accommodations have been greatly improved
during the past 'Winter, and by the time the Spring
prize-meeting commences tliree liotels will be ready
for the accommodation ot guests. Gapt John Klein,
of tha Fifth Bagiment who has hitherto had a mon-
opoly of tha hotel business, baa erected a new build-

Judge Danlds on the 8d Inst requiring thegi to
show cansa why they should not be punished for

and asked for an adjonmmeat on aeeouat of the ab.

sioners, to show cause to-morrow why the stay of

that Judge Donohue had no right to grant the order
of the 8th inst, while the Commissioners were con-
fessedly in contempt and tt is regarded as siugniar
that he should refuse to pnnish tbam for sneb con-

fTBAT DOES BEDEMPTIOy ME Ayr
Secretary Sheiucak takes every available
opportunity to reiterate his belief tUat after
the process of redeeming the legal-tender
notes has begun, he will have authority to
reissue them up to the limit of .$300,000,-
000, "as the public exigencies may re-
quire." He not only insists upon this as a
matter of law, but on frequent occasions
has contended that expediency and sound
policy demand the constant reissue
of the notes and their maintenance
as a permanent part of the circulation of
the oDuntry. It is, in fact, an essential
featiXfe of his plan of resumption, and on it
rests much of his confidence of success. In
his recent conferences with Congressional
conanittees, he has referred to section
3.5>V9 of the Bey^sed Statutes as the basis
of the authority which he claims. This
section reads : " When United States notes
are returned to the Treasury, they
may be reissued, as the exigencies
of the public interest may re-
quire." This embodies directly the
provisions of the acts of Feb. 25,1862,
July 11, 1S62, and March 3, 1863, which
authorize the reissue of legal-tender notes
whem they come into the Treasury in pay-
ments to the Government or in exchange
for bonds. This is what is meant by "re-
turned to the Treasury," and those acts and
the section of the Revised Statutes embody-
ingihis speoifio provision had not in con-
tomplation at all the redemption or final
payment of the notes. The Secretary of
the Treasury, in resuming specie payments,
will not be acting under the Legal-tender
acts of 1362 and 1863, or the Revised
Statutes of 1874, but under the Resump-
tion act of 187.5, which they could hardly
have had in view.
The act of Jan. 14, 1873, declares that
on and after Jan. 1, 1879, the Secretary of
the Treasury " shall redeem, in coin, the
United States legal-tender notes then out-
standing, on their presentation for redemp-
tion at the office of the Assistant Treasurer
of the United States in the City of New-
York, in sums of not less than fifty dollars."
Now, what 19 the meaning of " redeem "T
There ought to be no doubt about it. It is
a word in common use in connection with
financial operations. The obvious intent
and purpose of the law is to have the out-
standing notes paid, and a note paid is so
much of a debt discharged. Henceforth it
is good for nothing but to be destroyed.
Mr. SHKRM.VS was the antbor of the Ee-
Bumption act, and on^t to know what it
means, and in 1875 he did know, but he
has found occasion since to take a different
view of it. But he cannot put a meaning
npon it which its language will not
bear or import into it the meaning of pre-
ceding statutes which had an altogether
different purpose. No doubt legal-tender
notes " returned into the Treasury" during
their l«gal existenoe niay be paid out again,
but after Jan. 1, 1879, if they are pre-
sented for redemption and redeemed in
coin, they are henceforth dead, and there
is no authority for resuscitating them.
Jlr. Sher3Iax's notion about the expedi-
ency and sound policy of reissue is based
upon a fallacy which is at the bottom of all
our financial errors and difficulties, which
is that the leRal-tender notes of the Gov-
ernment are money in the fullest sense, and
may properly and safely become a part of
the permanent circulation of the country.
Intimately assoeiated with this is the still
broader fallacy that money in its proper
Bonse is or can bather creature of Government
and not of the commerce that employs it.
The sooner these- false notions are eradicated
from the popular mind the more speedily
shall wo get b(ack to sound prmciples
and rest on solid Aground. The notes of the
Government, whih were made a legal ten-
der under the sti*» of a great emergenfey in
order to float theln, are evidences of debt
'which should bo discharged or satis^
faotorily provided for. as soon as pos-
sible. They hay*', been an element
of the most misahiovous monetary ^8-
torbance, and will capse trouble so long
as thev remain in ciioulktion without being
' treated according '^ to their real oharaoter.
I It is notthe ftmctton.of (the GovenuB«nt to
tarnish BMMV.aaiivblMtB.to iinitorUlw to
make thatso which Isekstheaflaentisiqiiali^
of permanent and stable valoe. It is the
bosi&ess of commerce to provide dioney
for its own operationt, and it is abraya
ready to do so when not interfered with,
and the function of Govenunent in the
premises is to give its certificate to the cor-
rectness of the measures of value in use,
which must always contain fbe value they
affect to measure. The credits based on
value should also be the exclusive bininesa
of commerce. The Government itself
may borrow money, and then its duty is
to provide as promptly as possible for its
payment. If it puts out its, notes and
makes them legal tender in time of dire
stress for immediate resources, it is sacredly
bound to redeem them or provide for their
ultimate redemption when the stress is over.
Redemption of the Government notes is
jtayment. The Treasury Department is not
a bank of issue, which has suspended on its
notes for a time and is about to resume. It
is an agency of the Government for the
management of its fiscal affairs, and among
its duties is the payment of the national
indebtedness as it falls due. The greenback
notes are declared by law due and pay-
able on demand after Jan. 1 , 1 879. That is
what the Resumption act means, and it can
betnade to mean nothing else. But will the
Treasury be prepared to pay all the notes
that are presented; and, if so, will their
withdrawal from circulation cause disturb-
ance? This is a serious question, and the
present law does not, perhaps, sufficiently
provide for the contingencies which it sug-
gests. The notes, when redeemable, will
be at par inevitably. Their withdrawal
should be, and probably would be, very
gradual, so as to permit their ' place to be
taken by coin, or certificates representing
coin, not before in circulation. As fast as
the Government retreated from the field
with its currency, commerce should be able
to take possession of the ground and pre-
vent any abrupt transition. • "Whether this
is to be effected by the law as it stands may
be a question, but we should not play fast
and loose with the first principles of finance
by first paying notes and then putting them
out again and calling thcra money.
SWyS OF PEACE.
The course of events in Europe sincS Lord
Derby's resignatiou has exactly realized the
definition of the Carlist war, " two armies
constantly running away from each other."
Each of the two disputants has kept ad-
vancing as the other retreated, and retreat-
ing as the other advanced. Now England,
now Russia, has assumed a bold front, and
appealed confidently to the justice of her
cause and the excellence of her torpedoes ;
but both alike have shrunk from the respon-
sibility of commencing a war whoso end no
one can foresee. Meanwhile, the. efforts
made by both parties to find allies in Au»-
tria, Italy, France, Turkey, Roumania, and
wherever else any real or pretended support
was to be had, recall the story of the old
Frenchwoman who electrified her parish
priest by entering the church with a candle
in each hand, and announcing that the one
was for St. Michael and the other for
the devil, it being just as well to
have friends everywhere. But Prince
GoRTscHAKOFT's manifesto, though in reality
little more than a sugared "No," has
already had the effect which the great
Chancellor's master-strokes ot finesse seldom
fail to produce. The announcement just
made by Turkey that, "although willing to
accept any modifications which the bene-
volence of the Western powers or Russia's
own moderation mav sn^^st, she recog-
nizes the treaty of San Stefano, and holds
herself bound to carry out the projected re-
forms," is a great stride in the direction of
peace, it being manifestly useless to fight
for a State which declines to be fought for.
Boumania's first burst of irritation appears
to be rapi-lly effervesjing, and it seems
probable that the twofold influence of
Russia's conciliatory attitude, and the hope-
lessness of successful resistance without
the more than doubtful support ot the
Western powers, will induce the popular
party to withdraw its opposition, more es-
pecially now that the pro-Russian feeling
of the Government has become too manifest
to be ignored. The attempt to incite Servia
and Montenegro to make common cause
with Roumania against the treatyfif really
made, has failed of its object, and the resig-
nation of M. StEVTZA MiKHAlLOVlTCH bids
fair to have upon the Cabinet of Belgrade
an effect the very opposite of that of Lord
Derby upon the policy of England. Ger-
many's advocacy of an amicable settlement
of the dispute becomes daily more emphatic ;
while Austria, or at least the Austrian Min-
istry, clings to the congress still suggested
by Prince Bismarck as the only valid hope
of peace. Indeed, the amount of help to be
expected from Austria by either party, in
the event of a war, has just been set forth
in her answer to the Porte, with a frankness
very refreshing amid all this diplomatic
evasion : " Should Russia persist in enforc-
ing every clause of the treaty of San
Stgfano, Austria ipust defend her own inter-
ests, but she cannot undertake to protect
those of Europe single-handed " — an exclu-
sive attention to "number one " which sug-
gests the old tale of the barber who, while
shaving assiduously with his thumb inside a
customer's cheek, suddenly shrieked out,
"O, law, Tve cut my thumb!" utterly ob-
livious of the cheek which he had cut
through to reach it
It must be owned, however, that from her
own point of view, Russia's stubborn adhe-
sion to her own programme is natural and
even justifiable enough. Thrice during the
present century has she attempted to crush,
once for all, her hereditary enemy. Her
first effort, in 1828-9, would have been
completely successful, hadnotthe influence
of the Western powers turned what might
have been a mortal wound into a mere tem-
porary overthrow. Her second, in 1853,
ended in a ruinous failure, while the sole
trophy earned by such fearful sacrifices —
the Armenian fortress of Kars — ^was wrested
from her by the Treaty of Paris. With such
recollections in her mind, she may be par-
doned for wishing to secure herself, after
this third and mors fortunate attempt,
against having to do' all the work over
again; and hence the two stipulations upon
which she insists most strongly are the re-
constmctionof Bulgaria, which secures her
passage through the Bosphoros, and the eesr
sion of Northern Armenia, which gives her
the ring of fortresses that have already cost
her 80 dear. It is the former demand which
has excited, not wholly without lea-
MMt. tha awnhoMiaaa ot
Qen. FAStrnrr ha* 6iiljr Mdd that
-' Turkey is a strong boX of whiob Aus>
tria is the lid;" biit this arises lew from
any gpod wSl to the Turk than from the
considerations affecting the Turk's Sla-
vonian sahjedts. ■ The ■ - doctrine ' of na-
tionalitiM, whiehisto the polities of oiir
age what that of " the divine right ot Kings"
was to tiiosa of former times, has alreadydie-
tated the junction of the Bidgsrians ot.Bou-
melia with their bretbrtnJbeyond the motm-
tains, the union of the Montenegrins of the
plain with those of the bills, the expansion
of Servia to its former limits ; and the un-
quiet thoni^ts of Austrian officialism ars
now busy with the possible extension of the
same principle to a fttsion of the Slav sub-
jects of the £user with the liberated vas-
sals of the Sultan, under the protectorfte of
Russia. This project — no newone in theory,
at least — would be tantamount to a partition
of Austria herself ; and her objection to
sanction any measure whioh may lead to U
is intelligible enough.
For the present, however, these and other
apprehensions of the kind are manifestly al-
layed by the sudden turn of events during
the last three days. The rumored counter-
manding of England's warlike preparations,
if truly reported, is a symptom whioh no one
can mistake. , The formidable flotilla of gun-
boats^ upward of a hundred in number,
which, built just too late to share in the
struggle of 1864-5, were being rapidly put
in condition to exercise their IS-ton
guns ' upon the same enemy, are now re-
manded to their former inaction, and noth-
ing more is heard ot the " 10,000 irregular
cavalry " from Bengal, or the " 3.000
troops"^ ready- at Malta. This news will
probably be far from unwelcome to Russia,
which, with the Danube railways still un-
finished, the Eleventh Corps sent home to
recruit, and 14,000 men prostrated by
typhus in Bonmelia alone, is hardly in con-
dition for an immediate renewal of
hostilities. True, the English fleet
and the Russian Army still watch
each other over prostrate Constantinople;
but the first step toward peace has been'
taken, and this is proverbially the hardest
of all. It is satisfactory to see that the pos-
sibility of a peaceful settlement of the dis-
pute has been canvassed in St. Petersburg
without any newspaper fulminations, and in
London without the usual jubilee of window-
breaking, the frequent occurrence of which
during the last three months might well have
begotten a suspicion that the favorite popu-
lar leader of England must be a glazier out
of work.
TBE DRAMA OF EVERY DAT.
The details of modem American life seem
commonplace. However heroic the good
man struggling with his fate may be
to those who know his secret trials, he
affords no thrilling spectacle to a world
accustomed to regard all men as con-
testants, and all mankind as struggling
more or less blindly after something which
theycannot reach. Even the dark tragedies
which cloud the happiness of a community
or a family are mean and sordid as they ap-
pear to the hurrying mass of men who read
and pass on without a pause. But only
a few months pass in which we are
not startled with one of those dramatic
surprises which make one reflect that truth,
after all, is stranger than fiction. Just
now, for example, the newspapers are filled
with pictures of the remarkable incidents
whioh Illustrate the life ot William M.
Tweed. The dramatic unities were well
preserved in the career of this man, even
up to the hour and in the manner of his
death. Emerging from the humblest and
meanest walks of life, Twezd became pow-
erful, rich, influential, and notoriotts-7-if
not famous. His gigantic thefts, iua mar-
velous absorption of political power, his
sudden fall, arrest, condemnation, impris-
onment, flight, capture, and appearance in
the witness-stand, all led up to a death
scene whioh should be as strong a picture
as any that had passed before us in the
panoramaof his life. It could not have been
contrived any better, even if it had been
pre-arranged that the great criminal should
have died as he did, in prison. l7he man
who had surrounded himself with all the
luxuries which his stolen wealth could buy,
became a hunted fugitive. He was cap-
tured while engaged in the menial pursuits
of a ship's drudge. And^ after years of
immunity from punishment, the man,
broken and degraded, dies in a felon's cell.
He who was fawned upon, flattered, and
courted, reluctantly gave up his life at
last, pathetically appealing to the judgment
of OoD and man to remember that he had
tried to do some good in the world, but
had been hiodered by adverse fates.
Tweed's story told in a novel would be
thought incredible.
It was only a few days since another
criminal, overtaken at last by the tardy but
sure-footed Nemesis of her fate, startled
the community by committing suicide in the
midst of the splendors of her ill-gotten
wealth. RisTELL, like Tweed, had defied
justice so long that she seemed secure in
her wicked web. But, while she was just
at the turning-point of another successful
escape from punishment, she gave way to a
sudden impulse of fear, and so fled into the
silence and mystery of the grave. . This
woman was rich, notorious, and, in aome
sense, prosperous. After her years of
penury and obscurity, she had risen to a
height of wealth which must have once
seemed to her- imattainable. The vulgar
curiosity of the crowd followed her with
that strange admiration which a great
fortune, however basely or criminally won,
is sure to draw after it And while she
lived there was that about her infamous
trade whioh gathered a mysterious fascina-
tion around her and her belongings. The
manner of hertaking-off was tragical — ^more
tragical than any bat the coarsest writer of
fiction would have dared to use for his lurid
pages. Byonebloodyaetof self-destruction
the secret of a life of crime was laid bare,
and people shuddered as they marveled.
Nor is it alone in the sudden death of oon-
spicuons people that we find frequent occa-
sion for wonder. Within a week New-Eng-
land has been shocked by the abrupt fall of
a prominent business man, who is diseov-
ereid to be a thief disguised as an eminently
respectable gentleman. In one of Victob
Htroo's novels is portrayed the character of
a eoaviet who, far from the scene of his
penal serritnde, passes his serene old age
in acts of piety and benevolence, honored
as a municipal magistrate, and affection-
ately regarded by his fellow-men as a iaitb-

acted lie of Ceage, the desperate efforts to
stave off an approaching collapse of reputa-
tion, the furtive watching of circumstances
which might have earlier aroused suspicion,
and the final crash with which all this fair
seeming finally toppled over, we perceive
certain dramatic ' elements and pic-
torial effects. The man's baseness is com-
mon enon^ in this world, mere's the pity ;
but the magnitude of his crime, stealthy as
it was, and the long-sustained deceit by
Tirtiich he covered it, are uncommon. The
French novelist cunningly enlists sym-
pathy for his struggling hero by making his
crime 80 slight-that his punishment and his
fate seem a monstrous perversion of justice.
Chace, under the cloak of outward respect-
ability, continually augmented and a^gxp--
vated his offenses. Like Gilman', he not
only dragged down innocent people in his
ruin, but his ruin is a shock to that confi-
dence which is the foundation of society.
Both of these men fell suddenly. Their ex-
posure w^ a sharp surprise, from which
men do not readily recover.
Those who keep track of some of the so-
cial and family discords which finally reach
the law courts ought to see that all domes-
tic life is not on one dull level. It would
be better for society, perhaps, if there were
more tranquil dullness. But the survivors
of one rich man seem bent on exhibiting
how the dead millionaire could be credu-
lous and suspicious, generous and sordid,
bland and p.issionate, a mild-mannered gen-
tleman and a swearing lunatic. The roof
taken from off one house shows at least an
uncommonly lively household. And the
heirs of another Croesus have lately di-
verted the whole country with a comedy
which might satisfy even the demands of
the fruitful and quaiTelsome author of the
conundrum, " What is a comedy f ' Tragedy,
comedy, farce, and melodrama — they all
pass before us in the shifting scenes of a
life which is esteemed commonplace.
BOOKS IN BOUSE DECORA TICK.
There is much writing and talking nowa-
days about bouse decoration, which indeed has
been elevated into a sort of art by itself. This
art has its professors who give lectures and lay
down laws ; so that as society, which should
seem to be the mere spontaneous (gathering
together of friends and acquaintance for mu-
tual enjovinent, has come to be treated by some
folk as if it were a mystery, almost a trade,
surely a vocation. Tbemakin;of a comfortable
and attractive homo, which should aeem to be
the mere spontaneous outcome of the desire for
such a thing, accompanied by the means ot
obtaining it, has come to be res;arded as the
business of some one outside the home, some-
thinic that may be got like other metvban-
diao, by paying for It Tbis condition
of things is the result of a f;reater diffusion of
money than of culture, and of a desire on the
part of many people to seem to be that which
they are not We, however, did not set out to
f^neralize upon tbis topic, bat specially to con-
sider one very limited department of it which
has been too much neglected by the lecturers
and writers of which we have spoken — that it,
the part which books may be made to play in
home decoration. This they may do in mass
and in detail ; that is, on the shelves and as in-
dividnal objects. For, after all, tbe talk atK>ut
haniclngs, and dados, and cornices, cabinets of
china, and even pictures, there U nothingwhich
does so much to furnish a room — we do not say
a fine drawing-room, but a parlor used for tbe
dally gatherings of the household and of
friends — as shelves of prettily-bouad, neat-
ly-kept and well-arranged books. Noth-
ing expresses more of real refinement or
tells more plainly of the home enjoyments of a
etiltivsted family. Furniture, piano-fortes,
pictures, may be bought by order in a week,
but books in any .noticeable numiwr, which
seem to belong in the rooms where tbey are
found, must be the result of accumulation.
Their rows are the tree-avenues which mark tbe
residence of the aristocracy of mental culture.
True, a collection of books may l>a bought in a
lump, but when they are so obtained they never
aeem to belong where tbey are set up for show,
but to be a part of a bookseller's stock out of
place, which indeed, tbey are. But books have
a value in the fumisbing of a room merely
from the masses of eolor that they afford.
They may be thrust upon the shelves in such a
heedless, disorderly way that they produce »
distracting effect, both on the eye and on tbe
mind; but arranged with due regard to harmony
and contrast of eolor, and to size and propor-
tion, a small collection, even half a dozen
shelves, is a very attractive object, and in larger
tnasses their effect is very rich' and pleasing,
almost imposing.
Books as single objects have value' in room-
fnmishing from their binding, their outside,
like any other object of bouse decoration. The
question now a book shall be bound is not one
which may be successfully decided out of hand
by any one who has never thought at sU about
the matter. True, color and gildin: and design
bave a certain value irrespective of flt&ess, but
when we find that fitness has been violated, the
object itself becomes, at least to a certain de-
gree, offensive. The first requisite in the bind-
ing ot a book i^ of coarse, that the book shall
be well protected and shall be easily* and
comfortably usable. A book bound so that
it cannot he easily opened, or so that
when opened and read its leaves work loose and
are cast out or so that it becomes uncomforta-
bly heavy, or with excrescences unon it in the
way of metal or other knobs, or deep leather
panels, is an abtardlQr and a nuisance. It had
better been left in pasteboard or in paper. But
supposing tbi* part of the work well done,
there remains the question— all important from
the decorative art point of view — of the fitness
of the binding, and the ornaments put upon it
The style of binding in which books do too often
appear makes it manifest that to most persons,
and even to most binders, this question of fit-
ness does not occur. And yet it is important,
and would aeem almost obvious. Crashed le-
vant morocco, crimson, blue, yellow, or ol.ve,
with gilt edges for the leavea Is a very haiid-
some and a most durable style of bind-
ing; but it is not fit for all books.
What taste oonld be so dull and in-
discriminating as not to be offended by seeing a
ledger ora day-book so bound, or a city direc-
tory, or a dictionorr.! If this be admitted, all
la admitted ; tor the question-of fitness ia then
reeogniied, and, eoiuistently, the rule of fitness
mnit witliin reasonable limits, be followed. It
is on this ground of flitnets that the contempt
of the great French binders for any other ma-
terial than levant morocco is an artiatie fault ;
and. as to the result it- does lead ihem to
bind books in this style which are almost as
much out of plaee in their rich and' elaborate
dresses as a jewel of gold, in a swine's snout
Bow, then, ahall books be bound fitly, beau-
tifnlly, and so as to please tha.ejre of taste
iritith *7t^ IfTT*""* "T^ »»rf«~ lb the first
plaee, befiM we getto tiie outside ot the book,
■od attar, fs we ramose, the leaves are well
put together, the mwgiiis should not be cut
down. Margin is asimportant la binding books
as 111 ealenlating expenses or in buying stocks.
A book with its margins cot doi«j> will be a
niean-loofcjag book if it is bound in gold ; and
yet so nUd ^n most binders about cutting
down mikrKlnstha:t to preserve the little shred
of paper it is almost necessary to stand over
them with a drawn sword. As to the cover
and decoration of a book, that should be dedoed
by the character of its eontei^t*, and by the use
to whieh it is to.be put Books of ref-
erence, dictionaries, encyclopedias, hand-
books, text-book*, and the Hke should be strong.-
ly bound in calf, or in very dark morocco, with-
out ornament ot any 'kind, and all the edges
should be cut and either marbled or speckled.
They are articles merely of use, and ornament
upon them is offensively out of place. Tou
might as well gild a boot- jack, Next come books
of a sober and solid cast, histories, travels, seien-
tiSc books, and the like. These are appropri-
ately bound in handsome calf, with gilded backs
and marbfed edges. Much ornament and gilt
edges are inconsistent with the sobriety of their
character, and also with the fact that when read
they are held long in the hand and subjected to
a somewhat trying usage. Gilding, however,
preserves the back of a book, and tbe polishing
of the edges for the marbling presents a
surface into which dust cannot penetrate.
When we come to poetry, belles lettres, books on
art and those in which their illustrations are a
very important part ot their attraction, we
reach the proper region of morocco and gilding.
Poetry is to a certain degree out of place in calf.
For tree-marbled calf there has been a craze
among certain book-lovers, and they have even
put Shakespeare and ^peiuer and Chaucer and
Browning into that dress. A fatilt ot incongru-
ity in our judgment All this class of books —
tlAt Is poetry, belles lettres, and books on art —
should be honored with morocco and decoration
to the extent of the owner's ability or willing-
ness to pay for them ;• otherwise they may be
much better left in their native cloth or board
binding. There may be even a fitness of
color and decoration to the author. For ex-
ample, Shakespeare in a dozen volumes
would not appear well in yellow or light
blue morocco; but such a dress would well befit
a single volume of songs or some quaint old
rarity of not too grave a cast Upon one point
the book-bindfe should be careful, in regard to
this class of books. Only the top edge should bo
rut and giltt; the margin on the fore and bottom
edges should be left untouched. To shave
them smooth is abominable in the eyes of all
real book-lovers. Works upon art. Illustrated
books, .and the like, which are often large, may
well be bound in half-mnrocco, with the top edges
gilt. This is a serviceable as well as an appro-
priate and handsome binding. It is always to be
remembered thatmorocco is the moKt lasting and
flexible ma^rial in which a book can be
bound. Russia leather is a delusion and a snare.
It becomes dry, cracks at the hinges, and looks
shabby. 'Vellum is to be used sparingly and
with great discretion for special purposes.
These general rules will be a safe guide to tbe
book-lover who is willing to spend some money
on bis favorites. If he does not violate them,
his books will be a delight to tbe eye a," well as
food for the mind. But prettily as books are
now bound in muslin, if thev are carefully
used and tastefully arranged, tbey may be made
great helps to the attractive appearance of tbe
living parlor of a refined household.
TBE AST OF MO VINO.
It is an old and untrue saying that three
removals are equal to one fire. Tbis is not in
the list of sayings shown to be fallacious by
Charles Laub, but it deserves to be. Tbe
whole lump is leavened with but a grain of
truth, as is the case with most old saws and
maxims. Tbe subject is timely, and there are
doubtless many timid or inexperienced house-
keepers who would profit by a few bints
on the art of moving without loss.
The pathetic and comic aspects of mov-
ing have been written on ad nauseam. Sup-
pose we look at tbe practical side. There is
hardly any human enterprise in which com-
pleteness of preparation bears more satisfactory
fruit The first thine to do is to ascertain how
much trunk and box-room will be required, and
to procure whatever articles in that line are
needed. Dry-goods boxes can be had^heaply,
but none larger than three or four feet square
by two feet high should be used. Better two
small boxes than one large one, as truckmen
are apt to deface walls or injure car-
pets in moving heavy boxes. Bed and
table linen, blankets, quilts, &c, make a
.good foundation in the bottom of boxes for
articles of wearing apparel, which should al-
ways be placed on top. where they are less
liable to be crushed or wrinkled, and where
they will be sooner unpacked. Crockery is best
packed In trunks, which can be handled with-
out jarring ; a cheap trunk, costing, say, $3,
can be bought that will hold the crockery of
an ordinary family. By a plentital use of old
newspapers, each article being well wrapped,
and wads of paper being forced in between tbe
piles of dishes, tiie contents of the trunk or box
can be packed like a solid mass, so that break-
age will be almost impossible. Books are
heavy, and should never be packed in large
boxes. Grocers have boxes about two feet
square, made to contain fruit cans, which
are jnst right for books, and can be
had for 10 cents each. A box of this kind
filled with books does not weigh over 00
pounds, can be easily handled, and the volumes
are not liable to be injured, which often hap-
pens in large boxes, the corners ot covers being
forced into the leaves of other books by tbe
great weight whenever the box Is tipped upon
its side. Kitchen utensilacau be advantageous-
ly packed in barrela Pictures ought not to be
allowed to take their chances with other goods.
They are worthy ot tbe honor ot boxes special-
ly made for them, or, at least selected by meas-
ure. They should, ot course, be packed stand-
ing upright Pictures covered with glass may
be protected by }he liberal use of paper, but oil
paintings must be packed so that nothing can
touch the canvass, trout or back ; indeed, it is
wisest to put each one in a box made to fit it.
For the thousand and one little articles ot house-
hold use and adornment places will be found in
unoccupied cornel* of boxes and.trtmks.
Furniture is largely at the mercy ot {he
trackmen, and the average truckman is not
a careful person. Only a strong, steady,
faithful, and .extremely eaieftil man is fit
to move f timitare. Bnt if yon engage
tbe first tmekmen who apply for the job, or to
whom you apply, you will probably get a pair
ot fellows who can't carry a piano up stairs
without setting it down half a doien times, who
gouge the plastering or tear the wall-paper with
the comers of tables and the legs of sofas, who
break the backs off chairs, braise book-eases and
cabinets, and seem to delight in smashing all
fragile objects. Moreover, the truckman should
be a man fertile in expedients, for large articles
of fnmitor* aoinetimes refuse to go around
a bend In a staircase or pass tKrongh
a narrow halVaad can be persuaded only liy the
exercise of tlM shrewd Yankee faculty of '^cal-
eulation." In. such a "fix" as this, the ampid,
wooden-headed truckman stands in duU helpless-
ness, while a keen and practiced hand is rarely
balked by any peculiarity of f umiture or kouse.
Select your tmekmaa with care, therefor*. In-
quire among thoee likely to know, andhiraonly
such as are well reeoramended. . All tmekmen
have aa "addnr ori^" nd tbev lowtc tt
kbly with little urging, bnt if you make

Only miagtiided peisoiu a*ek cheap butter, cheap

tt is the part ot wisdom and economy to per-

in ev^^Ttbing they do. Caution them about
bruiring (umlturj or marring wails, and then
standoTerthemtossethattheyheed theeaation ;
this is especially necessary when large articles
are being carried up a staircase. Watchfulness
is cheaper than upholsterers and paperhangers.
Soxes filled with household good* have a top
and bottom, ordinarily, <bat this is a point that
trackmen are consUttitlonally incapable ot ap-
preciating. No rmilFoad baggage-master ever
lets a trunk rest on its bottom when he can pos-
sibly stand it on end. Trackmen, however,
are your servants for the time being, and a little
terse and vigorous language will enlarge their

so torttmata a* to get a good man, who serves

Moving is a detail of housekeeping that does
not enlist the higher faculties of tne mind, con-
sequently these suggestions may seem trivial ;
to the unencumbered bachelor who puts his ef-
fects on his table and tips the table over into
his tnmk, when he is about to move, they will
seem superfluous. But to the serious man who
views with dread the' approach of the annual
May moving as a season of chaos and Inevitable
destruction, a consideration of such homely
matters mav not be unprofitable.

TBE CIVIL DAMAGE ZAWS.
To hold the seller of liquor responsible
to pay damages for any mischief done by a
drtmken man seems a stringent rule, yet this
principle has become established law in at least
a dozen of the States. At about the time when
Maine, under the influence ot Keal Dow, en-
acted her prohibitory, law, then a new meas-
ure of temperance legislation, Ohio, tmder Gov.
Adaik. put forward her " Civil Damage law." It
muntained that as the seller of liquor derives
the profits he should pay the damages. It al-
lowed the losses directly attributable to the sale
of llquorto be charged to the seller. It gave an
action of damages against him in favor of per-
sons injured by the intemperance he promoted.
Whoso suffered from tbe drinker might sue tbe
seller. Tbe experiment met with success, and
is winning extending favor. The law, with
modifications, has been elsewhere copied, and
numerous decisions under it, found in the re-
ported proceedings of the courts, show that it is
effective.
. To take the New-York law as a specimen of
these enactments, it reads as follows :
■■Every hnsband. wife, child, parect, cnardian,
employer, or other person who shall be injured in
person or property, or meaus of ttnpport, by any in-
toxicated person, or in consequence of the intoxica-
tion, habttntil or otherwine, of any person, shall have
a ritrht of action in his or her name aeainst any per-
son or persons who shall, by selling or giving away in-
toxicating llqnors, have caosed the intoxication', in '
whole or in part, of soeh person or persons." — Lava
of 1873, chapter&iO.
The language of the corresponding laws in
other States differs, and atixiliary provisions
vary; but the substance is about the same.
One difference, however, is important. In a
majority of the States which have adopted the
Civil Damage law, no notice is taken whether
the sale was or was not a lawful one. Tbe
saloon-keeper may obtain a license, comply with
all the requirements ot the law, and make only
sales which the law permits, and yet be sued if
the buyer becomes drunk and does damage.
Tbis is the policy adopted in New-York, also in
niinois, Iowa. Kansas, Michigan, Ohio, and
Wisconsin. It is no defense to a suit for civil
damages that the tavern keeper was selling
according to law. Not so in Connecticut Indi-
ana, Maine, New-Hampshire, and Vermont In
these States tbe seller is only liable for damages
where, in selling, he has violated the law. The
State imposes strict regulations upon the trafSc ;
if the dealer obeys them he is not chargeable.
If he breaks them, as by selling on Sunday,
nef^ecting to take a license, giving liquor to a
minor, or tbe like, then it is that he may be sued
for any damage done, aa well as prosecuted for
the penalty of the law. To give an example ot
tbe laws founded on this policy, the 'Vermont
law reads as f ollovrs :
■' Whenever any person in a state of intoxication
shall willfully commit any iniory npon the peraon or
Sroperty of any other Individaal, any person who by
imself, his clerk, or servant, shall have ttntaw/ul^f
sold or inmbihed any part of tbe liqnor cnasine snch
intoxication, shall be liabl* to the party injured for
all damaaes oc<*asiQn*d by the injury so done." — jlctt
0/ 1869, No. 4.
The actual administration ot these laws is
broader in scope and operation than is generally
supposed. Tbe law practically embraces a wide
range ot the pecuniary evils attributable to in-
temperance. A great variety of injuries have
been brought forward for redress under these
acts. As the wives ot drunken husbands form
the most nnmerous.class of immediate pecuniary
losers from intemperance, so they are most fre-
quently plaintiffs in these setims. These laws
give a wife a prospect of partial redress in
many grievances. Ko law can, no law attempts
to, relieve from the sense of disgrace, or as-
suage or compensate the sorrow, alienation, and
wounded feeling with which a conaeientious,
affectionate, high-minded woman comes to re-
alize tbat the htutiand of her early love and
choice is steadily and surely descending the hill
toward the depths of degradation whieh lie
below the drunkard. But it is something to
know that if the husband, beine drunk, beats
tbe wife, or. treats her with actual persoital
crueltv, she may hold the man who sold tbe
liquor to a legal responsibility. So she may, if
by tbreat* and abusive demeanor he ter-
rifies her into a room and locks her there
to staffer, or drives her from the hotue and
fastens bar out to roam hoitseless through the
night or seek shelter where she can. These
are physical injtiries whieh the law can estimate
and compensate, and which it will bring home
to the seller's poeket. Then, if the husband,
squanders her property in fits ot drunkenness,
she can compel the seller to respond for the
value lost A drinking husband got possession
of a htindred dollar* belonging to his wife, went
upon a spree with it, drank (with bow much
assistance from boon companions not stated)
more than it would pay tor, went home and
brought out his wife's horse tram the bam, and
sold it to pay the balance of hi* score. The
tavern-keeper was adjudged to make good the
wife's loss. The same thing has occurred in
another ease, as to the horse, where there was
no money involved in addition.
Then again, in a majority ot thesa States, (the
New- York Supreme Oonrt has said differently,)
it the wife loses mean* of support from her hus-
band's earnings by reason of his habits of in-
toxication, the Mller is responsible. As a hus-
band is lawfully nnder obligation to laiwr
to support his wife, his capacity to work
is a part ot her means ot support and whatever
diminishes i^ powet of earning injures lier
means of support Dnder the CivU Damage
laws she is constdered.to have an interest' in his
business ability ; at least In all Cases where she
has net indepeBdent property, bnt relies on his
exertioiu tor her maintenanee. A laboring
man, earning when sober a dollar and a halt a
day, fell into drinking habits and by steady ad-
herence to these instead of to his vocation, stie-
eeeded in driiiking himself to death within the
space of about three yean. His wife sued the
seller and recovered, chiefly for loss of support,
two htmdied dollars. Now, a verdict of tbis
sort tends to make a tavern-keeper caretnl as to
hiseastomers. . rTwo hundred dollars is not a

must Mil a good many glasses to dear twe hw
dreddoUan. Betterrefnse drinks to sott that
support their widows. And the dealer does not
always settle at as low a figure. In an Dlinob
ease, where the hnshand liad become a cos

srhieh he wa s earning five dollars a day, and
had sqnaudered a valuable property, the wiZa
recovered tan thousand dollar* for her aetaa'
loss, with two thousand more by way of re
proof to the seller. If a husband becomes ia
sane or a good-tor-nothing invalid througl
drink, his wife can collect damages tor the lost
ot her maintenance. One drunken maa feC

a doctor, and to keep his wife up at ni^it nuia

after all, he never grew well enough to carry oa

wife got damages for her time m taking ears oi

for the doctor's bills, and for the wages of thf

farm. It intoxication causes a married man'i
death, his wife recovers damages, much as sbt
might if he were run over by a railroad tnda
or killed by careless blasting ot rocks, Tbis ii
seen in a case where several men, drinking to.
gether, engaged in a fight and one was killed.
His wife recovered damages from the laloon.
keeper. How tar this doctrine goes is a vexed
question in the courts. 'Where the victim be-
came so drunk that he mtut be hauled home in
a wagon, and on Uta way a barrel of salt in the
■wagon tell on him and killed him ; and where
he was stumbling across a railroad track, tuiable
to take care of himself, and was run over and
killed, the courts adjudged that the seller was
not liable. For, said the Judges, the man's
death was not produced by selling him liquor,
nor by his intoxication, but he was killed by the
barrel ot salt or the tr^ of cars. The intelli-
gent lay reader, unconversant with the intrica-
cies and uncertainties ot legal dedaioiu, will
say that he perceives no difference in the nrin-
eiple between these cases and that of the mar
who vras killed in the baivroom fight. The dif-
ference is probably in this, tliat the sidta were
in different States or courts, and were decided
tmder statutes not alike, or by Judges whose
views varied. There is not any good reason In
the nature of the three cases why they should
be differently adjudged.
Wives are not the only persons who bring
these suits. A parent or a child, a husband, an
employer, any person, indeed, may make these
claims. Fathers may sue. A young man bor-
rowed his father's horse tor a drive. On hi:
way he vidted a liqtior-saloon, became excited
with liquor, started again quite unfit to manage
the horse, and drove it so violently that it died.
'Verdict for the father for the value of the
horse. The only son ot a farmer, being npon a
journey, drank at one tavern after another till
he became - unable to walk. - He rastained
two falls, in which his head was se-
verely bruised, and from the effect ot these
he became sick and insane. 'Verdict for the
father for the expenses of medical treatment
and for the value of the son's services lost dur-
ing his sickness. Children may sue. Very re-
cently in one of the New-York City eonrts a
culprit named Wa.LL was brought forward to
be sentenced for manslaughter in kicking his
wife so that she died. The onlyelement in the
ease to save him from a conviction for murder
waa that he was so much lntoxi<»ted as not to
know what he was doing, henoe there waa no
intent to kill. His counsel asked for the short-
est sentence ot imprisonment allowed by law,
on the ground that there were tour little chil-
dren, who, now their mother was dead, would
have no support during their father's imprison-
ment But Judge Davts disregarded the ap-
peal He said that the Civil Damage law
imposed on the men who sold Wall tbe
whisky, in favor of the children, severe dam-
ages, and.enabled the children to bring an action
tor tho loss of their father's and mother's earn-
ings and care. And he gave a sentence of fifteen
years. A husband may sue. An Intoxicated
young man took his mother-in-law to ride, bat
drove ao recklessly aa to overset the wagon,
throw the lady out and break her arm. Hei
hnsband— the father-in-law— -brought suit foi
the doctor's bUl, nurse's wages, and loss of his
wife's serrieeB while her arm waa healing, and
the court sustained his suit. An entire strangez
may sue. A drunken man attacked and beat
one whom he met and injured him so that he
was thrown out of work for a considerable time.
The injured person sued the owner and landlord
ot the building where the rowdy bought the
liquor, and the court sustained his aetioa.
The New-York Civil Damage law Is of special
interest to property-owners, (and the ■aaeis
true ot one or two others.) becatise it iipusis
the landlord of a building who leases it knowing
it to be used tor a liquor store, to the same
liability aa Ua tenant for all damage eatued by
the sales. And on the other hand, an unlawfol
sale of liquors upon rented premises forfeits
the lesse and entitles the landlord to reaome
possession and devote his building to battel
uses. The utility of these laws lie* largely ia
the caution they enforce among tiiose who sell
liquor. The moral to each of these stories in-
dicated is : Choose your customers. Dont sell
to drunkards. These lairs, steadily enforeed,
must breed a eode of direction* between tavern-
keepers and their bar-keepers, each aa these 1
" No mdre liauor to Smith ; he beats his wife."
" No mora to Jones ; he got In a fight last week."
" Stop Brown at two drink* ; he la mnntn<
down too much." And thus the grossest and
most degrading abuses of alcoholie drinks ma^
gradually be restricted and repressed.

A Stroll throagh the crowded galleries of
the Academy of Design impresses one more end
more with tbe lack of men who not onljr hare
the technlcalitiM of their profession at their
Snaer-enda, bat can moTe the spectator by some
pleasant, thrilling, or terrible story. One of the
older band that nsed 10 years ago to contri-
bute to the Academy, and still holds on, is'
Mr. George H. HalL Bis efforts used to be in
the direction of prettiness. He was re-
nowned for his Spanish fruit matdens and
his pictures of flowers and fruit This year his
flight is far beyond a mere castle in Spain. In
the North Boom is an allegorical picture by
Jum callad ■• Winter." The season is typified
ly a half dozen naked cupids among clouds.
One beats a cresset full of burning brands;
another has some piece of clothing to snfgest
tbe cold. They are painted in crude reds and
yellows, not on a very high key, but with few
lower contrasts. Correggio did such things,
a&d perhaps Raphael may be suggested. It is a
anrprising and mournful sight to And a painter
■who is less than mediocre attempt the allegori-
cal. Better had he stuck to such pictures as
No. 562, "An Oven at Pompeii," in the West
Eoom, or No. 458, " In a Ru; Bazaar, Cairo,"
■ for they have comparatively few points of view
from which to be judged, while " Winter,"
symbolized by naked children among clouds, is
about as difficult a subject to treat adequately
as any one could think of. Tet here is Sanford
B. Gilford, on the other hand, who restricts
himself to a few, a very, very few subjects.
Vemce and New-York, the Adriatic and the
Hudson — ^he swin/^ placidly between those two
places for bis marine pictures. Observe, in tbe
Sast Room, No. 369, " The Marshes of the
Hudson;" No. 390, "A Venetian TwUiRht,"
and, in the South Room, No. 468, "A Sunset,
Bay of New-Tork." He gets much poetry of
certain kind into his work. Although some
years a^ it had already become stereotyped,
he remains content with dolne fairly well the
same things over and over. It is mannerism
with bim. Now, to some minds the unsuccessful
effort of Mr. Hall is more admirable than the
stereotyped success of Mr. Gifford. There is
im ideal behind Mr. Hall's work, no matter how
*CTievou3ly the result falls short, while Mr. Gif-
ford is comparatively lifeless. Tills reminds
one of the school, or rather collection, of paint-
ers to whom Hall, the Beards, the Weirs, Hicks,
and Eastman Johnson are in a certain way suc-
uessora.
Leutze was a man who feared neither space
aor paint. No Ciuras was too hie for him, no
color too crude. He may be looked upon as the
extreme example of the school that flourished in
tbe United States during tbe war, when every-
'jody was more or less waked up, when artists
had bolder ideas and people paid bolder prices.
His imagination was powerful and his training
TifiOTous, but his brain was by no means subtle,
and his band anything but that of an artist. Biei^
stadt and Church stand beside him in landscape.
Some historical and many genre painters, in a
iess bold style» took an nucritical public by
storm. Page would have been an equal partner
in their glory bad not his leaning toward inven-
'oon and technicalities frightened off the ma-
jorily, and left him only a small minority of
udmirers. These painters were like Mr. Hall
with his allegorical '* Winter" — men with niore
Tigorand thought than akill. Bat sisee tbe
'vnr, as people became gradually poorer, they
have also become more criticaL The cdnnec-
4ion between New-York and Pari* has become
:j3nch closer. Ideas in art have crossed the
ocean by moil as well as in tbe persons of foi^
eigners and art students. Tbe pictures at the
Academy exhibitions have grown smaller and
amaller, until this year they number over 700.
People are no longer ready to pay liberally for
u lar^ daub tbaC appeals to their sensibilities —
religious, patriotic, or sentimental. They want
to feel sure that tbe workmanship is good, that
The canvas has endanng value. This the
American artist does not always supply. Why?
Tbe worst barUsbip of American artists is not
'he difficulty ot supportlni; life. Many a young
painter who has received the best education thai
-iome, Paris, or Munich affords. has to " nlgcle at
pot-boilers insttrsd of doing the creat work that
je teil:iglowiaf within him ; but that is not the
worst. It may often do him good by giving him
"ime to revolve his subject in bis mind. It may
tnaiure his thought. The worst hardship is the
•ack of artirtic life in New-York, the absence
t>f tbe intellectual bustle of the ateliers, which,
taken in not too great doseft, is stimulating and
.lealtbtnL Daring the war there was more ot
'bis in New-York than now. There was a more
liberal spirit among the members of the Nation-
rtl Academy. Perhaps there was less competi-
.ion : certainly there was less public knowledge
>{ what is very bad in art, and certainly there
was no good criticism in the press. But the
:trti8ts held together more, and. while shoAving
greater audacity in work, admitted a wider
.atitude in jndging each other's i aintings. Ted-
der displayed his aiegular caprices, and La Farge
>egan to show his strange drawings. Hunt was
at work in Boston. George B. Butler and
Winslow Homer did good but un-
equal work. Now a new era has
set in. Whistler left Baltimore for London,
where he, as well as Bougbton, have been ap-
preciated. Butler lives in Iscbia, Dana and
ji^hninger in France. Vedder and Griswold are
at work in Italy. 'When the change set in these
men were unable to stand the want of artistic
vnUieu in the United States, the absence of the
indefinable art atmosohere which exists abroad
;,o certain favored towns. And it is this thing
which constitutes tbe greatest hardship to our
painters, young or old. ThU is not the place to
suggest a'remi^y. Clubs, associations, a draw-
ing together again of atliers might do some-
thing. Whatever should be done ought to
emanate from the academicians, if they wish
to hold tbe lead in American art.
While many good painters have got away
from America, apparently to stay, others re-
main. We bave Hunt in Boston. La Farge and
Inness in New York. The first-named is an ex-
ample of tbe difficulty that besets an artist who
is strong enough to oppose the deadening inSn-
encva of the United States with an inner Sre of
genius. When he succeeds in that hard feat,
he is then attacked in the rear by the subtlest
onemy — over-appreciation. When be has thor-
oughly conquered the respect of connoisseurs,
he becomes ihe prey of the indiscriminate critics,
who admire because "tl.e right people" ad-
mir . Mr. Hunt is too much ad mired in Boston
for bis own good. Tbe pictures of Mr. Inness
ibis year have a disagreeable suggestion of tbe
same thing. It is to be feared that he is being
spoiled ; if so, a good t>ainter will be lost.
There remains Mr. La {"arge. He, if not yet
spoiled, owes it probably to the peculiarity of
his style, which is so different at different times
that few know where to And him. Even the
critics are afraid to venture on his pictures ex-
cept with sweeping sneers or indiscriminate,
vague praise. Mr. LaPargehasthisinfavorof the
hotw that be is not on the way to be spoiled,
viz., that he is still a groper, a searcher after ef-
fects, after embodiments of ideas. His picttires
at the Academy this year are three in number,
all small, and very easy to pass by without es-
pecial notice. The finest, m accordance with
that stupidity or that want of courtesy which
placed the portraits by Bonnet and Henner out
of good range, has been htmg high up in the
West Room. What may be called the Interme-
diate hangs on the line In the same room, and
the third is in a good position in the North
Boom. The reasons for naming these three
pictures in sui;h succession sre as f olloars : The
one in the North Room is an outcome of the
pie-Uaphaelite movement, a little counter-wave
Jn modem art, starting from England and mn-
ning back to Rome and Florence, a little pro-
test against the ascendency of Raphael and the
■choois founded and influenced by him in Italy
and France. It is a secular subject which Mr.
La Farce has given us. Only a )aia, two pine
trees, with green branches, against an intensely
dark blue sky, a white, cloud v horixon, and two
woBWi flgnms, «"»•«"$'«'. .""O-.^!*^

, The next picture liTlhla artist is No. 555 in
the West Room, •* A fiather." Here is a ft^re
vhich cannot fail to excite the repulsion of
most <>b8erver8. A woman is walktofr up from
the surf alone. She is as coarse as HiUet's
peasants, without his good excuse, viz.. truth to
realitiea. See her gretit hands and big leet!
Thev look like a reminiscence of the larce-
banded saints before Raphael. But look at the
want of decision in her uice. Mr. La Farge has
been hesitating, groping, searching with this
face, and has left it, and why should he not ?
At an^rate we have one artist who la a groper,
a seeker. But as to tbe body of the woman, and
the way in which the wet drapery clinging to
the flesh is painted, that is most remarkable,
most admirable. Certainly there is no other
painter in America who oould do that with such
freedom and style ; and who, indeed, is there in
Europe ?
Finally, look at No. 617 at the other end of
the same room. This is an Andromeda. lA is
claimed that this surpasses tbe other two ; is,
in truth, the finei-t piece of art in the Academy,
becatise there is no hesitation in it, no echo of
the pre- Raphael! tes, no lack of color, drawing,
or ability to tell a story. The myth of An-
dromeda exposed to the sea monster and de-
livered by Perseus has been often treated'.
There is no monster here, and no Perseus. The
story is told or rather hinted, but the question
is one of art more than of legend. Rxamine
the modeling of tbe nude back of Andromeda
as she turns her face to the cliff, aiid. with
clasped hands, awaits the shock of the waves
or whatever other fate may be in store for her.
That is for the drawing^ Then look at the
wonderful play of color in the spray of the
breaker where sunlight comes down from above
to Ulnminate the scene. The iridescent sheen
hlncs at the glitter of light on the scales of fish
or the winsrs of beetles. The picture ought to
convince those skeptics who maintain — and not
without being able to point to examples for
their opinion — that Mr. La Farge is not a strontr
draughtsman. .It certainly con&rms tbe belief
that as a coloriat he is so far unsurpassed, un-
equaled. _
THOMAS' SYMPHONY CONCERTS.
The sixth and la.-t of Mr. Thomas* symphony
concerts, this season, took place at Steinway Hall,
last night. The spacions cndliorlum was filled In
every part, and. at the close of the performance, Mr.
Thomas was called oat and applauded and cheered
with a ftordlaUty nncommoaly spontaaeoas
and genoine. The pn^rrammo of the concert was
tbe same interpreted thrice already, and commented
upon on the morning following each of the pnl>-
lic rehearsals, which, under Mr. Thomas' baton,
are qoite as satisfactory as final renderings.
Tbe orchestral work done yesterday even-
ing was simply perfeot, and it would be
bard to decide which oort ion of the band's
labors was performed with most felicity — the fanci-
ful overtara to "AMidsammer Night's Bream," the
lonf^drawn harmonies of the introdaetion to "Tris-
tan and Isolde, " or the clear-cat, sonorous, and va-
ried strains of the Fifth Symphony. The
soloists were, as before, Mrs. Osgood and
Mr. Pinner. JJrs. Osgood was in mach
better form than on Thursday afternoon. She has
a soprano voice of passable evenness and sufficient
compass; its quality is Hzht bnt of considerable
sweetness, and the sioger uses it with Intelligence
rather than feeling, bnt witb excellent taste.
Mrs. Osgood, however, is not eqoal to tbe
"Tristan and Isolde" masie, and, with the
exception of Mme. Pappesheim. we cannot nam**
any artist now before tbe American public who is.
We do not af&rai that this is much to be ro-
gretted. The habitual reader could scarcely quote
manyanfavorable references to Herr "Wajy^ner's music
from these columns, bnt. In tbe case of the dying
utterances of l$olde, we are constrained to record,
not merely that they are of excessive difficulty, b :t
that, in tbe lan^age of a French wit, we wi:*h they
were so difficult as to be Impossible of i..ter-
pretation. We are, therefore, not inclined to
moom greatly over the fact that Mrs. Osgood was
unheard daring a part of her last night's task, for, in
passages of this particular opera, tbe voice
of ' a Matema or a Sass could bnt
add one additional discordant tone to
the purposeless cacophony of the band. The lady
sang witb a good deal of charm the exquisitely ac-
companied if rather fr^mentarycaTaliiL.t ("Flowers
of the Valley") from "Euryantbe." Mr. Pinner
threw into his execution of Liszt's £ flat concerto
anwonted fire, and. technleaLly. hi'i playtug was
far mora commendable that at the previous re-
hearsaL Somethinz of effectiveness was gained,
too, by Mr. Tbom:ts* comparative subordination of
the orchestra's accompaniment to the ptisslbilities of
the Instrament, and, as a whole, the per-
formance impressed us as artistic and brllliaac.
Mr. Pinner was aammoced back to tne
platform again and again at the close of the con-
certo.

MR. SHLLS' CONCERT.
Mr. S. B. Mills, for many years our best resi-
Ident pianist, and a teacher of great talent and wide
and thoroughly good iDtl.ience, is on the point
of going abroad for a twelve month, in
search of health and repose. He will depart for
Europe In June, but, previous to leaving New-York,
he is to profit by a testimonial concert tendered
him by his numerous friends and admirers.
This aSair will take place at Stein w y
Hall, on the evening of Wednesday week, and
enlist the. services of all the members of Mr.
Thomas' "orchestra and the orchestra of the Philhar-
monic Society, under Mr. Thomat' direction,
and those of Messrs. Pinner, Fritsch, Bero-
ner and Dolckeu, and Mrs. Imnzen Brown.
Amons the notable elements of tiie programme will
be Saint Saens' concerto for two p!anos, which will
be played by Meqars. Mills and Honer, Chopin's
F minor concerto, and a variety of solos. It is
to be hoped that tbe concert will be at least
as soceessful in a material as it is sure to be in an
artistic sense, and that, in both respects, it will be a
foreronner of equally gratifying events in tne prin-
cipal art-centres of Europe, all of which Mr. Mills
intends to visit before retaming to the United States.
aodMra Tatabl^ and fatstramental nambeza were
eontiflrated by Mr. Werner and Dr. Leweuberg^
Th« Vocal Society of New-York wiU glw
thefr hut concert, this seeson, at Chlckerhig Hall, om
to-morrow fortnlgnt. " The May Queen " will bo in-
terpreted in its entirety, as part oC the evening's
programme. I
Miss Maggie Mitchell will to-morrow enter
upon the last week of ner engagement at the Stand-
ard Theatre. She will appear in "ThePeorlof
ii^avoy " to-morrow evening, and benefit by Friday's
representation.
Mr. Eli Perkins will discuss " The Perkins
Family, or tbe Philosophy of Pun,** at Chlckering
Hall, on Wednesday evenirg. The lecture Is one
which has been delivered with snecess elsewhere, and
is referred to as exceedingly amusing.
A performance of minstrelsy will be g^ven
by the amateur performers who supplied similar en-
tertainments at Chlckering Hall, last year, at the
samerplace, on Saturday evening week, for the ben-
efit of the Samaritan Home for the A^d.
Signer Ernest Patrizio, the presUdigitateur-
who recently gave a very successful private repre-
sentation at the Union I^eagne Theatre, will offer a
series of performances at the San Francisco Min-
strels' Opera-house, commencing on to-morrow fort-
night.
Mr. W. A. Lilliendahl, long an attachfi of
Wood's Mnseum, becomes the lessee of the Broad-
way Theatre on and after Monday week. In due
season, Mr. Lilliendahl Intends reviving the museum
department of the bonse. besides increasing its at-
tractions in a variety of ways.
An Atlanta newspaper records the successful
progress in Europe, as a singer, of Mr. Hugh Angler,
of Atlanta. Mr. Angier left tbe United States to
study abroad, about three years since. He possessed
an excellent tenor voice, and was a young man of
nntisually fine physique and appearance.
The present week is the last but one of the
season at the San Francisco Minstrels* Opera-house.
A complete change of programme will be effected
there to-morrow. The evening of Wednesday week
Is set apart for the benefit of Mr. W. A- Hunter, the
genial Treasurer of the company, and a list of at-
tractions of special potency is in reserve for the oc-
casion.

THE COMING S£ASOJS' AT NEWPORT.
ABOUT FIPTT COTTAGES ALEEADY RENTED
— THE BERT HOUSES HELD AT OLD PRICES
— ARRANGEMENTS FOR OUTDOOR SPORTS.
Frxim an Occational OorrnpOTidaU.
NkwPoBT. Friday. April 12, 1878.
Present indications point to a favorable sea-
son at this well-known Summer resort. If it proves
to be as remunerative to the trades people as that of
1877everybody here will t>e satisfied, even the am-
bitious real estate agents and the avaricious hack-
men. Bat It is by no means certain that the season
of 1878 will be as successfnl as its predecessor, as
the Paris Exposition will attract a Jar^e number of
people who usually make Newport their Summer
home.
Thus far about 50 cottases have been rented,
which is a small number for this season of the year.
The real estate agents, however, are confident that
the usual number will be taken before the middle of
Juno. Many of the prominent cottagers will occupy
their own bouses this season, but they would not do
so if they saw an opportunity of letting them at reason-
able rates- They do not care to place them in the mar-
ket at a low rate, for It establishes a bad precedent.
Cottages which formerly brought $2,000 a
season are now offered for $1,200 or
$1,500. Tbe highest price paid for a cot-
tage, so far, this year, is $5,000 for the Loriog-
Andrcws villa, which will be occupied by Mr. Theo-
dore A. Havemeyer, of New-York. Several of the visit-
ors will enter upon the occupancy of their houses
early next month, and even at this early date a few
of the cottagers have acrived and are domiciled in
their cOzy homes. The Newport season is a long
one. and this is accounted for by the fact that the
Summer population is moeUy made up of
cottagers, wnose houses here are fur-
nisbea as elegantly as their city homes,
Asain, many of the cottage-owners do not own the
houses which they occupy daring the Winter ; they
find it a matter of economy to come to Newport as
early as possible, giving up their Winter bouse by
or before the 1st of May. Not a day passes now
that tbe real estate agents do not have customers,
bat they are hard to please, and want to set houses
very cheap. They have succeeded fto far as cheap-
ness is concerned, but very few of the flrst-elass
houses have been rented, tb« tisaal prices being de-
manded for tbem.
I be outdoor amusements this season will be as nn<
meroos as ever. There will be lacrosse by the In-
dian clubs from Canada, and by tbe clubs made up
from the sons of the Summer residents. Tbere will
also be polo, coaching, and pteeon'Shooting. It is
also a settled fact that there wtll be several steeple-
chases in September, and tbere mar be a mirade of
the members of the New-York CoacUaiC Club who
spend the Summers here.

HISTORY OF THE ENTEBPBISB AND A
LIST OP THE OFFICERS.
For many years past the idea of a down-town
elub-room for the' use of merchanu and business
men has been canvassed in this City, and has gener-
ally been conceded to be a gooa thing. The matter
first took definite shap4 as far back as 1860^ when
its projectors went so far as to obtain from the Le-
gislature a charter and an act of incorporation. For
some reason, however' nothing further was accom-
plished at the time. About a year and a half aso
another effort was made, and several meetings were
held with a view to organizing, bnt those
having charge lacked the requisite tact- or energy,
for nothing came of it. About six months ago
tbe idea was taken op by a new set of
gentlemen, who, having first obtained possession of
all the rights conferred by the original charter, went
quietly to work. A 10-years lease of the old Mer-
chants Exchange, Nos. 50 and 52 Pine-street, was
secured, and the labor of remodeling it was hegun.
It is now almost ready for occupancy, and the formal
opening has been set down for the 25th lust. The
building has been so completely transformed that
none of its old habitues would know it. It was com-
pletely gutted to start with, and only its four walls
were left standing. The old mansard roof was razeed,
and a new flat roof was put on. From this a mag-
nificent view is afforded of the bay and of many
miles back in Long Island and New-Jersey. There Is
here an Immense water-tank, and a series of waste
steam-pipes designed to carry off all the e£Buvia from
the rooms below. In tbe centre is a huge skylight
covering the largest air-shaft in New- York City. It
goes down four stories, and terminates above the
main dining-room on the second fioor described fur-
ther on. Stiould an elevator be needed at any future
time there Is ample room without interfering with
the ligbting or ventilating of the fioors penetrated
by the shaft. The kitchen is on the west side of tbe
rear of the top floor. It is an ample apartment, with
a brick and cement floor, and provided with a large
range and griddle occupying an entire side of tbe
apartment. There are also Aere a large steam-table
provided with all sorts of compartments for the prep-
aration of edibles ; several copper boilers for cook-
ing vegetables by steam; a tank ot the capacity of
300 gallons ; speaking tubes from all parts of the
house, and a copper pneumatic tube through which
written orders for meals or dishes can be sent
directly to the cook, and by him filed away
after having been filled. On the east of the kitchen
is the scullery, also sn ample apnrtment, and fully
provided with all the modem requisites, lu front of
the kitchen is an ice-honss for meats, &c., to beused
during the day, and a dumb-waiter connecting with
the dinisg-TOOm. These, with a steam drying-room,
occnnv the centre of the floor left vacant by the
shaft. Facing on the street are two store-rooms and
a laundry and ironing-room. The front portion of
tbe floor below is occupied by five rooms, which will
be neatly upholstered and fnmished'ss bedrooms for
the use of out-of-town members or others who may
wish to pass a night in the club-bouse. In the rear
of these is a bath-room and wuter-cioset. also for tbe
use of members. In the extr me western portion of
the rear of this floor is the pastry cook's room. He
bns his own ow^n stove and apporteuancesremoved
from all other sorts of cooking. East of this room
are five servants' rooms, with bath-room and water-
closet in front. There are also extra dumb-waiters
descending from this tioor.

third floor, in front and r(*ar. are .':ets of three large
rooms €71 ruitf. Thes«» bAVe lofty ceilings and axe bO
arranged that the prtrtltious can be removed at any
time, and the three rooms thrown into one. Each
set will be carpeted and furnished the same. They
can be nsed as dining-rooms for private parties, or as
meeting-rooms for trade or other associations, of
which one or more members of the club maybe
members. There are many such as-ocintions which
hold annual or quarterly meetincs followed by a col-
lation. These rooms will admirably serve such
a purpose. It is only necessary that one member
should be a member of the cluo. Under the rules
he may introduce as many others as he pleases, being
held responsible for their behavior, an-1 for all
bills inrnrred. The wails of the rooms are covered
with a dark, oHve-colored paper with large figures.
The window-frames are painted a deep red, picked
out in black. Tl e partitions are lead-colored. The
C' icings are elab rately frescoed in blue, red. and
gold, witb a broad edging of two shades of brown.
In each room is a mantel of oak. with panels of
polished bird's-eye maple, and a broad mirror let in
at the top. The other ficiines will be in keepine-
On tbe same Itoor are a xerving-room. wasb-basina
water-<-lot.ets. and two additloniu bitth-rooma, where
members may refresh tliemselves at any time.
The entire eastern side of tbe second floor is oc-
cupied by the main dlnint:-hal!. which is VO by 40
fettin extent. The ceiliuR is ;l'^hly frescoed with
red and blue fiarures. The walls between the ceiling
and the wainscotina are covered with paper of a
' tone-gray color with small square ficures. TJils Is
edsed at the top and bottom by broad crimson bands
of velvet paper. The wtiinscoting is of a dark oiive-
color. with large wavm?fi;iures. The tront of this
floor has been taken out »nd neat iron pillars in-
serted, the Interstices beinjE tilled with plate slass.
This, »>nd the sylicht in the centre, make the room
unusually bright and cheerful. The ceilins is sup-
ported by numerous small iron pillars, painted a
deep red with black ornamentation. There are two
mantlea similar to those before Je.scribed, and on the
rear wall is a handsome we ther-vane. The pneu-
matic tube connected with tl^ kitchen has
here an opening;, where orders may be
inserted. A menib)>r wishing to dine f*^tes out his
order on a prepared slip of paper and li..uds it to the
waiter, who puts it in the tube and it is whisked off
to the cook without delay. There U no shouting or
load talk to disturb anybody. Tubes from here also
ronneft with tbe t>fBce. On the vfest in the rear is a
servinc-room, with coffee and tea urns and steam-
heatinx apparatus for warming disht- s. There are
also glass closets and a wine-room, where an ofQcial
will be stationei to ser\-e out liquors a-* they may be
ordered. Anything in the way of liquid refreshments
may be had in the club hou'se, bnt it is a stringent
rule that nothing will be sold to drink over the bar.
The first fioor is level with the sidewalk. The en-
trance Is at the west side. It is tbe intentl n to or-
nament the tront with two handsome lumps, and an
iron raillnc of unique desiirn will replace thu one
now Inclosing tne area leadinp to the basement. The
vestibule is composed of colored tiles and Tennessee
marble. On the left is the cloaK-room, where a por-
ter will be stationed to receive members and keep
out intruders. On the right is the reading, smoking,
and sitting {room, which will be the gem of the
buildiujr. Tbe ceiliofT and walls are magnifi-
cently frescoed in designs of an olive-color,
picked out with gold. The mantel has a band of
ornamental tiling along the front. The furnitnre
will be of the tnost co&tly and Itixurious description.
Here will be kept all tne leading newspapers and
commercial publications of the day, books of refer-
ence, and everythinK else needed to while away the
time or to promptly transact any business that may
arise. Behind, and facin^r the hall, is the clerk's
desk, provided with telegraph and messenger
instruments, and gold and stock indicators,
and every other necessity. Behind this are
numerous lavatories. In the extreme rear is
a large room known as the grill-room, for serving
hasty lunches. In the centre is a circular counter
for cold meats, oalflds. and tbe like. In the north-
west comer is the oyster and chop conn* er. Behind
this, and built out from the walls, is a special broiler,
with a ventilator on too to carry off the smell of
cpokine. A member may select his own steak or
chop and have it broiled before his eyes. Connected
with this room Is another wine-room, which will be
conducted on the same plan as the one above. The
frescoing is in closely-woven blue figures on a white
ground. The furnishings i re of oak, with paneling
of polished bird's-eye maple and tops of rosewood.
In the basement are water-closets.' wine and ale eel-
Jars, ice-houses, and a steam pump to supplythetank
on the top of tbe bnilding.
The club hat now a membership of 300. The
limit fixed by the constitution is 500. At the last
meeting, held on the 3d inst., 13 new members were
received, and there are already 20 more applications
to be acted on at the next meetins. Merchants,
bankers, lawyers, and business and professional men
generally are eligible, but great care will be taken
to maintain the institution at a high standard
as regards character and standing of those
wishing to join. The initiation fee Is $100, and
the annnaJ dues $50. The present ofBcers are :
Benjamin 0. Arnold, President; Samuel D. Bab-
eo<^ Vice-President; Charles M. Fry, Treasurer,
and R. D. Perry, Secretary. When country mer-
chants come to the City to purchase gcods it has al-
ways been the custom to dine and wine them liber-
ally, and at the prices charged by first-class restau-
rants this has hitherto been a serions tax upon New-
Yorkers. A merchant who is a member of the club
may now take his customers there and play the host
to them at rates very little above the wliolesale co«t
of the articles consumed. Business men genexmlly
are elated over the prospect of procurine a good
meal and good liquors at reasonable prices.
IMMIGRATION I^TO WEST MINNESOTA,
The St. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer-Press of the
11th lost, says : ** The present immigration to West-
em Uiimesota is unparalleled in the history of the
State. The officers of the laud departments of the
St. Paul and Sioux City, the Northern Pacific, and
the St. Patil and Pacific are crowded every day with
i^pUcanta for railroad lands. All tbe railroads have
heem obliged to add largely to their roUiu:: stock.
and especially their passenger cars, and
to increase their train service to aceom-
niodate the .sreat rush of ^ndbunters andimml-
gza^iU to Hi* wsatwot distrtcta. Tb« Influx tteean
some seven montiuaiEO. jnttefter tto^
harvest of 1877 nad DMD oithared. Tor'theevrea
months the amooat of land dispoted of by tbetTu-
ted States Land Office and railroad eommnlesln
Uinnesota and Northern DakoU is abottt 2,550.000
acres. The western eonnties of the State are to bo
eongratnhited not only on the immense foftaz of
immigrants which is rapidly settling up their
wide prairies, but on their superior character.
A very laige proportion of them are well-to do
farmers from the old settlements in this State,
Northern Iowa, or Wisconsin, who have sold out
their old farms at hich prices to buy large areas of
cheaper and more fertile lands in the western dis-
tricts, or other men of means who are goine into
farming as a business Investment. Nearly all of
them are of a class greatly superior to the averaee
immigration of several years, and thev carry witb
them to a great extent the means o^ rapidly im-
provino: their new farms. The great increase of rail-
road business consequent on this lance influx of Im-
miirrants has already been noted. But its effects on
(leneral commercial and all other business are no
less marked. There are Indications on all sides of a
rapid revival of business prosperity."

QUESTIONABLE HOSPITAL PRACTICE.
James Hope, a teamster, who had been an in-
mate of the Chambers-Street Hospital for some
time, suffering from double pneumonia, was trans-
ferred yesterday from that institution to Bellevue
Hospital When the ambulance reached Bellevue.
the patient was dead. The remains were retained at
the Mor^e, and an inquest will be held.
It is claimed by the ofllcials at Bellevue
Hospital that the patient, though in
a dyiuK condition, was transferred from the Cham-
bers-Street Hospital with the view of keeping the
rato of mortality at that institution at a low figure,
and that the removal and exposure accelerated his
death. The matter will be fully investigated.

SOXSTHIKO YSET USE- THE KEELY HUX-
BUQ m BROOKLYN— BE8ULT OF AN 3N-
VESTI0ATION BY A PRACTICAL MECHANIC
— 6TSSMT70nS ETFOBTS TO SELL SHARES
TO THE PUBLIC.
What looks verj much like an attempt to re-
peat the Keel7 motor swindle is now being made In
this City. The prAfcenBions and methods of operating
are almost precisely similar, and the alleged Inven-
tion itself appears to ba equally without substance.
A Mr.'Wintor has, during the past few weeks, been
givlnjr private exhibitions at No. 8 Columbia-street,
Brooklyn, of a sonralled wonderful machine, which
he claims is capable of prodacins not only a power
far exceeding that ascribed to Keely's, but also by
the same operation a rich illnminating gas, at a eoit
of 2 eents per 1.000 feet. Mr. Thomas B. Fogarty.
a practical engineer of this City, who was invited to
one of these exhibitions, thus describes his experi-
floce:
" The machine proper consisted of a dlreet-aetlon
steam-pomp, arranged so as to be driven br water
pressure from the street n**"«- I was satlsfled that
the pump was selected with a view to effect, for it
was at a peculiar construction, the steam valve being
operated by a queer outside ringing, which gave the
pump ah odd appearance, calculated to mislead the
superficial observer, and make it past for a special
machine. I remained in the building about half an
hour, and daring tfiat time the pump was operated
foribout 10 minutes, at a very low rate of speed—
at most 12 strokes per minnte. I have since ascer-
tained that the Brookljn^ water pressure in the
neighborhood of Fulton Ferry is at least 60 pounds
to the iqnare inch; bat during the exhibition Mr. Win-
ter informed those present thttt this pressure wascut
off, 80 as not to exert more than 1 ^ ponnds pressure in
the pump cylinder. We were told that the secret of
the performaoce lay in the valve chambers of the
pump, where water was mysteriously decomposed by
mere pressure through tbe simple action of the pis-
ton, at the rate of a quart at each stroke— enoagh to
fill the bolldiDg with gas in five minutes. The gauge
indicated 300 poands. Hydraulic machines are
sometimefl operated with a pressure as high as 10,000
pounds without decomposition of the water. The
gases— oxygen and hydrogen — were said to pass from
the generator into a series of seven tanks, and to be
stored in them at tbe pressure indicated on the
gauge. In proof of the great power produced a one-
horse power Baxter steam engine and a small roek
drill were connected with the tanks and were run for
one or two minatei at a high rate of speed. Part of
the vapor gas contained in tbe tanks was also allowed
to pass throngh a series of smaller ones, when It was
earboreted or enriched by petroleum vapors, and
thence to the tide of the room, where it was burned a
little while.
"On looking closely, I found a valve through
which air was pumped into the tanks before the ex-
hibition began, and it at once became evident that it
waa by this compressed air the Baxter engine and
the rock drill were operated. The appearance of the
gas flames, which resembled air gas or carbureted
air. with which I am well acquainted, confirmed this
eonclution. I also ateertaioed that a valve placed
betvreen tbe first and second tanks was keptcarefully
closed, so that the air pumped into the first tank— a
very small one-'Could not pass beyond it, and, conse-
quently, a few strokes of the pomp caused the
gauge, wliieh was connected with this tank, to indi-
cate a pressure of 300 pounds. There was no such
prsssnre ia the other rix tanks, for I saw Mr. Winter
open the valve before referred to, between the first
and second tanks, a little for an instant, and I heard
the comiireMed air pass from one tank to the other
with a load, hisaiDg noise, which satisfied me that
there must have been a very great difference between
the pressure in them. If there were oxygen and hy-
drogen gases in tbe tanics, I have no hesitation in
saying they were brought there. Two of the tanks
were evidently those m which the gases are usually
sent to exhibitions.
"To make assurance doubly snre, I carefully noted
the size of the steam cylinder of the pump, its
length of piston stroke, and the speed at which It
was run. as from these and Mr. Winter's statement
of the water nressure used I could calculate exaetlr
the power used, and comi>ara it with the work al-
iegea to be dene. Both of these, according to the
law of the correlation and conservation of forces,
fi^lch ia a primary law of physics, and holds
that the power produced cannot be greater
than that expended in its production, shcrald eorre-
spoad within reasonable lUnits. I found the 'work-
ing eomUtiont cHf the ptunp to be as follows: Piston
srea, 78.50 aanare Inches ; piston stroke, 1 foot ;
ptatott speed, 12 strokes per minnte ; water pretaure,
1^ ponsda to the square inch. Therefore. 78s50xlx
15iL5=l,4O0 foot potmds, or about 1-2'J of a hone
power— the total force expended in one minute.
Prof. Tyndall estimates tbe mechanical value of nine
pounds of water, by the combination of its elemen-
tary gases, as being more than 53,000,000 foot
poundmr Twelve quarts of water weigh 25 pounds.
Therefore. 53 multiplied by 25. and divided by 13,
equals 132.500,000 foot pounds, or 4,015 horse
power, which it Is claimed is genexikted by the ex-
penditure of 1-23 of a horse power. This law. if ap-
plied to Keely's motor, would have demonstrated it
to be a fraud inside of tuilf an hour."
Mr. Winter's "invention" can have no practical
value in a pecnnlary sense, as it cannot be patented.
Patents are issued only on the filing of speinfleatione
defining in preciae terms the nature, scope, and ob-
jects^ tbe invention. Mr. Winter says that he
■tambled upon hit * * power, " and that he cannot tell
how it operates. Eeely could never get a patent on
account of similar ignorance. Yet it n reported that
shares in the new inventioo are being freiely bonoht
and told, and strenuous efforts are being made to
float the enterprise. It Is given out that a 60-hotae
rwer machine is being bailt, and that as soon as thia
finished the pren will be invited to a grand ex-
hibition. Meantime tbe projectors do not seek news-
paper notoriety. Messrs. Jordan It. Mott and Charles
F. Woerishoffer are said to have invested UberaUy,
and a Mr. Lawrence, of No. 17 Broad-afereet, is cred-
ited with being deeply interested. Messrs. Shirley
& Byao. of Na 52 Broadway, are the financial agents
for the company that is forming. Prof. Doremna'
name it fireely used as having given a favorable opisk-
ion of the invention, presumably with his consent.

At the regular monthly meeting of Company
K, Sixty-ninth Begiment, the following reaolotiona
were passed :
Wlurroi, We have heard with regret that Capt, John
Kerr has been plsced under arrest by CoL Jamea Cava-
naah, and '
inureat. We liave reasona to believe that sptteand
malice of some of tbe officers have iMea tbe iole eaoae of
Capt. Kerfs srrest. Be It tbetefbre
ftaolvti. That we heartily sympatliiis with Cant. John
Kerr In tUs his first time to be placed under arreat during
his long oonneetioo with the regiment, eoveringa period
of neuly 20 yeara, and then, as we believe, on fllvolons
charges) and be it further
niaifiwif That the members ef thIa eoaipaoy have ,■-
tire confidence in the honor, integrity, and gaatlemaaly
bearing of Capt Kerr, and are firmly eonvfteed he baa
always had the honor of the Btxty-nlntii Beglmsat at
heart.

for tbe evidences of kindnera on 'the put of tbe
donors of tbe gift, still he did not consider
that he bad done more than his ' duty
toward the several organizations of the

self for the amieabla manner In which the aff aire of

happy one, and waa enjoyed by all present.
The left wing of the Twelfth Begiment drilled
at the State Arsenal last Friday evening, Major J.
H. Joaet In eommaad. Line was fonned with four
commands of 16 files front. The movements were
in columns of fours, ployments and deployments of
tbeeloleeelnmni doable column of fours, with de-
ployment by two movements : on right and left into
line from eoloran of foors ; and from cohmn of fours
into line, facing to the rear. The only bliihder which
occurred was made by the commanding officer, in tbe
latter nsovement, who f^ed to give the command
"face to the rear," eonseqnently one-halt of the bat-
talion faced to the rear and one-half to the front.
The step was fair, averaging from 109 to 111, being
eocaaionally^ broken in changing tbe wheel The
manual of arms at the commencement was very
" ragged," bnt later on the movements were well
dose. The commands of the Major were given very
rapidly, and tbe movementa were execnted with
nnnsnal nnidlty. Tbe men were steady, and the
drill, aa a whole, was far superior to tliatof the right
wing on Monday eventog. An election will take
place in OomnanyE, "Webster" Light Guard, on
Monday, the 29th inst., the snniversary of the for-
mation of tbe eompanv. to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Capt. J. T. Tea Rensselaer.
This company wsa formed from the cadet eorpa of-
the Free Academy in 1662, and was first eommsoided
by ex-Uent. Coi Knox McAfee, and performed its first
dn^ with the regiment during the three months'
eampaianof 1862 at Harper's Ferry. It alto ae-
eompamad tbe regiment through the campaign of
1863. It waa this company which drilled for the
chsmplonablp with tbe " Montgomery Guards" of
Boston, la 1868, when the former command carried
off the champion flag of tbe United States. The
company derived ita title of " Webrter" Light Guard
from Prof. Webster, who was President of the New-
York I^ee Academy at the time it united with the
Twelfth. The company has eiven several exhlbi-
tlotts in the school cf the eompsDy, manual of arms,
and other evolntious, and still retains its honorable
title. First Ltent Eugene O. Cruger. of tbat com-

redment to the war in 1861, no doubt the veterans
will attend tbe entortalnment In large numbers.

ti» Meuutakitt says; "A furtaer recovery. of nxsll
pcoporttoas, has talien place in tha stock markets, but
the movaaeat haa been trreeolar aad more sppsmt In
railway and general securities than in Governments. The
lattermade bat fitful attemnta at improvement, and on
more tiian one occasion relapsed to aiwintbalow the
qnotatioaa of laat Saturday. Monday and Tuesday
were the two dars of the week when the markets
were tbe firmest. The utterances in Parliament
on Monday al^t being regarded here as
pcomoHas tha establishment (» peace, and tbe renewed
efforts to Rina about the Gonaress. cansed speculstive
leabaatioas to he made In anticipation of the settlement.
This oomqieuced with the arrangement of "continua-
tloas" on Wednesd^, and tcese operations indicated

Vkit% as aaual. overestimating the volume of geuuine
salllBg which would be caused by such stsTtllng inci-

Incidenta caaxe auAdently eany In the soconnc to limit

few dUBeoltlea. One or two speculative firms abroad are
rnorted to have tailed, but such Incidents have bnt very
aU^^itly lafineneed prtees here. The first impression
jvodueedbyPilaee CSortaehakolTS reply to theHsrquis
of SaUabaiy^ eirenlar was favorable; and It waa only
after It wavConad that the foreign atarketa were da
prsissi, vui that In Vleana an unfavorable
view waa taken of the debate t in Parlia-

tone was isdvene thronghoot the dav, some telegrams in-
dlcatlag that war might be praclpttated by aeolUslon
between the Basslan and Turldsh forces nesr Coastanti-

affected euotatiotts here. Aitoc^tber, including Prl-
dsy's recoreiy. the changes are ooaflBed within a com-.
paiatively nanow eompasa, and have never been at all

Am* Our j^Mlai ObmvoXMt
Nice, Satorday, SUreh 26, 1878.
Now that all the exoitement of the Cami-
'*ml has completely died away, the great attrac-
tion of Nice Ia the gambling place at Monte
Carlo, within the dominiona of the hereditary
Prince of Monaco. There appears to be some-
thing partioalarly laughable to Americans in
the idea of so limited a sozerainty as that of
Monaco. A gentleman from oor country long
rssidsnt on the Continent, and well acquainted
with tbls partioalar spot, told me that when an
American Vioe-Consul was applied for by this
liliontian realm, and the response from Wash-
In^rton was favorable, the one paper which the
country publishes was profuse in its thanks and
raptures, and burst into prophesy about the
(Treat increase of commerce to the land which
was sure to ensue. Yet after all it is not the
big couDtries that do the most for elTllization,
and it may be asserted that the world owes more
to the tiny republics of Qreeee in early times,
and to the scarcely larjirer municipalities and
powers of Italy in the Middle Ages, than she is
like to receive from the overgrown and
twallen empires of to-day. Monaco rep-
resents a state of things which has-
passed away, but which contained in
irself remarkable elements of human progress.
It is one of the last genuine municipalities
^rhere " the city" was the centre of everything,
and each city was separate and distinct in Qov-
brnment. Iaw3, military institutioiis, and almost
]n lansnage. In our conception of the word
republic we are apt to be led astray by the mod-
am acceptation, and this blinds us to the fact
that the Hellenic Bepublics were in reality
Qothing save separate cities, with a girdle of
Farm lands and olive groves, ^ome in the be-
ginning was the same thing. Manaco is to-
day, as ref^rds its terricoriai position, exactly
what the cities of the Peloponnesus originally
were. The Government is, like that ot Great
Britain, a limited monarchy, but the limits are
Tiot, I believe, as in England, parliamentary.
What the checks may be upon the will of the
reigning sovereign I do not know, bat they
exist, and the hereditary Prince is not a despot.
The aspreement with MK. Blanc by which the
rabies of Baden Baden were removed from that
Grand Duchy to this Principality was ratified in
a constitational manner, and the voice of the
people was unanimous in the matter.
In spite of the appointment of a United
States Vice-Consal to this port of Monaco the
sommerce of the place is still smaU. Beyond
an occiuional collier from England or a stray
vaeht, there is seldom any other vessel in the
harbor than the Navy of the Principality, which
is commanded by the heir apparent, who learned
bis seamanship In an admirable school, the
Spanish marine. The fleet of Monaco has not
been specially distinguished in this centurv,
Dor, indeed, in the last, nor do I think that the
hereditary Prince will be tempted to mingle in
the complications arising from the Eastern
question, or to risk his vessel — fleet, I would
say — for even a well-defined promise of in-
creased territory. In former centuries the
power of the Prince extended as far as Men-
tone, which is the next depot to Monte Carlo.
but this was torn from the realm several hun-
dred years ago. The cession of Nice and part of
Savoy to France included Mentone, the frontier
line being at Ventimiglia, just beyond. The
PrincipaJity of Monaco, therefore, is not in the
advaotagpous position generally supposed of
being in the borderland b-jtween France and
Italy. It is entirely surrounded by French ter-
ritory, and Prince Bismarck, in mancenvring
against France, has preferred to incite young
Italy to attempt to regain the lands ceded by
Victor Emmanoel. rather than to arouse the
public spirit of Monaco with regard to her
ancient dominatfon over Mentone. The feel-
ing in Monaco on this head Is rather that of a
subdued regret than ot a fierce longing liitely to
be expressed in any sudden or impetuous action.
It is diC&calt at this age, and at this precise
moment, to say what may be the future, coarse
of any power, but 1 think I may definitely
state that In every event Monaco will preserve
a masterly inactivity.like our own famous " lit-
tle Slac," and will not add to the perplexities
of Europe by any rash effort to seize upon
Mentone. The feeling in Nice is, however, so
strongly opposed to France, and so much in
favor of reunion with Italy, that a sudden ris-
ing like that of the Tyroleans against Bavaria
would not be the unlikely sequel of
any commencement of a European war.
In such an eventnality the reflective
''mind naturally considers what may be the fate
at Monaco. Will the Piedmontese have the
♦ generoMty which the French showed, or would
that greed of territory which their great suo-
'• eess has inspired, and noon whioh Prince Bis-
marck so skillfully plays, lead them to the
seizure of Monaco, and to the extinction of this
old and representative State ?
This Qtiesiion is the one which the inhabitants
of Monaco ask theaiselves with increasing
seriousness, and with faces that grow longer as
the war news becomes more ominous. It is a
mhtter of the highest importance, not only to
the Mooachians, but also to the proprietors of the
rambling-tables at Monte Carlo. For should
the Italians so far forcet previous treaties and
stipulations (tempted by high example in recent
days) as to cancel and wipe out the principality,
what will become of Monte Carlo I The tone of
the dominant party in Italy, in spite of M.
Crispi, is intensely moral, and, though their
morality has not indeed gone the length of sup-
pressing the lottery, it might not swallow the
gnat of Monte Carlo. Even if it did not aljso-
rnteiy oppose in principle the idea of pnblie
gaming-tables, there is no reason for supposing
that the moral idea party in Italy would wink
at such a thing for the benefit of Monaco, or of
M. Blanc, or rather of those who represent the
estate of the deceased. Some Monachians. who
see deeper into a mill-stone than others can be
supposed to do. are of opinion that the marriage
of JL Blanc's daughter to a Bourbon Prince of
the Neapolitan branch was an adroit laying of
a cable to windward. For if, they argue, Mo-
naco is annexed, in common with Nice and
Savoy, and Monta Carlo becomes Italian, then
the interest of the Neapolitan Bourbon
will be used to obtain Naples a* the
Erambling resort. The new King Humberto
would not be likely to refuse such a sop to a
Bourbon, whose Kinedom he enjoys at this
f resent moment, and the moral element in the
talian CbBmi>ers will permit this course, both
bt^caose 51. Blanc has some vested rights,
and also because it will largely increase the rev-
enue of the Government, chiefly, if not alto-
gether, at the expense of foreigners. The lot-
tery, on the other hand, is supported entirely
by Italians.and unfortunately almost entirely by
the industrious poor. From this point of view.
osioK the eaming-tables to suppress the lottery
woQld be an arsfument calculated to satisfy the
most moral parliamentarians of Italy. Thus
lbs Monacbian politicians speak and think,
and in this manner they have overcome the
Isolation of their position, and are enabled to
be as Imitated and as anxious over the deteth-
^apple of Turk and Tartar as the English
Bondholders or the Viennoise Germans. Truly,
the pond feels the strength of the tornado-blast
equtJIy with the broad ocean, and the same
force that heaps the surge with mountainous
billows ruffles the tiny lake and tends minia-
ture waves against the bnlruahes tliat line its
shores. ...
It is presumable that every kingdom .or
throne or domination has or has had in its day
some raiton ditre. some motive for its being.
Tbeinquiringspiritseeksnaturallyforthe causes
which led to the existence of Monaco. The
local historians say that the Italian family of
Grimaldi seized upon this point as a sort of
watch-tower in medieval times against the Mo-
hammedan pirates. This is exceedingly prob-
able from the circumstances and nsturalfeaturea
of the place. Monaco may be divided into thied
portions, the old town on the western promon-
tory, Monte Carlo on the eastern, and the new
town between the two. The Maritime Alps ex-
tend their manv ranges clear down to the Med-
iterranean shores, and the railroad runs upon
the bank which has been formed by centuries
otdStiri*. Wherever a bold spur conies at right
angles from the range along the shore the rail-

taolated from the range, sbewingon Its land end
a natural escarpment of great strength. Upon
this, like se».eagles, the Grimaldi* boilt^their
home, and here a town rathered nnder their
banner. Far up upon the wild and serrated
crest of the Alpine range there was A watch-
tower from whioh the sentinels could des-
cry at an immense distance the sails
of Saracefiio pirates. The galleys ot
the Qrimaldls lay below eoushed in the deep
shadow of their fortified rock, like fierce ban-
dogs straining at their chains. When tbe sig-
nal was given that suspicious ships were in
sight, the companions of the GrlmaldlS' hastily
donned their weapons and leapMi on board their
galleys. The serfs and slave* tugged at the
oars, the lateen-sails filled with the wind, and
the Monachians sped away to intercept, to
chase, and to capture. When suoceasf ul they
bore their prizes to Genoa or to Barcelona and
disposed of them as best they might. When
tmsuccessful thev fled back to the shadow of
their rock and hid under the protection ot the
projecting towers, manned with arblast and
mangonel. So long as the crescent was a terror
to the western waters of the Bleditertaaean, so
long was the utility of tbe Orimaldians recog-
nized. But when the arms of the Catalans and
Arragons nnder Don Jaime the Conquistador
had wrenched from the Saracens the islands of
this part of the great inland sea, tbe Mona-
chians found themselves without an occupation,
without any reason tor existence. Snrronnded
by eager French, greedy Spaniard^ and plot-
ting Savoyards, the Grimaldi family played off
one against the other, acknowledging as suze-
rain the power that happened to be speciallv dan-
gerous, and then declaring: their Independence
when the sky ceased to be overcast. The
French revolution brought about a kindly feel-
ing among all who were of kingly blood, ai^d to
this must be ascribed the tenderness shown to
tbe hereditary princedom of Monaco in later
days. Those whose only merit lav in their long
descent could not well ignore a prince who was
indubitably descended from one of the Auatra-
sian Uuda of Pepin Heristal. This spirit no
longer exists, the modem sentiment being the
aggregation of nationalities. Now tbe Mona-
chians are Italian, and to Italy, I fear, they
must go.
Old Monaco is picturesque, silent, dirty, and
yet well popalated. Tne plateau of the rock is
occupied by two long and very narrow streets,
which are bisected by numerous cross alleys.
The north end is taken up entirely bythe palace
of the hereditary Prince, and this, unfortunately
for the carious, is neither ancient nor modem.
But here and there in the triple lines of walls
which girt the entire promontory are relics of
mediaeval days, which the improving zeal of
some engineer of the eighteenth century could
not entirely displace. In the square in front of
the palace there are some pieces of heavy ship
artillery unmounted. The best of these were
apparently a present from Louis XV. They
are elegantly cait. and of flue bronze, bearing
the fleurs de lys ot Prance, and the names of the
Comte D'Eo, Due d'Anmale, and also the motto
which Louis XIV. invented for French artillery,
'* Ultima ratio regum" — " tne last argument of
Kings." They were cast at Lyons, and I cannot
help believing that they were* at that time the
best pieces the world had ever seen. Some very
heavy clumsy iron guns bear the well-known
monogram of G. R., which, of course, means
Georgius Bex. of England, but they bear no
other lettering, and 1 know not which of the
four Georges it was who first owned thew
clumsy specimens of Albion*s artillery. The
children of Monaco play about these grim rel-
ics, and. leaning casually over the old wall, at
the imminent risk of their lives and limbs, spit
sportively down upon the hat of the passing
stranger, who is mounting upward, l>ent upon
investigation. Smart Sergeants and clean, sol-
dier-like privates of the Monachlan Army wan-
der aimlessly through the streets or amid the
shrubberies and parierres of the fortifications
facing tbe sea to the southward, which have
been very sensibly converted into a pubiio park.
From this aerie one looks down over the broad-
est part of the Mediterranean. Far beneath the
sea-fowl wheel and dive, utteriug discordant
cries, especially the large gcdls that call to each
other with aloud, sharp bark that would make
any imaginative man believe in the
existence of sea-does. The waves fret
and foam over the fringe of broken
rocks and under-water reefs that surrounds
the south end. All up the crag itself grow
stoneerop in pendent masses, stocks of a deep
brilliant purple, and kare-bells four times the
size of our American varieties. The swallows
flit about, glancing here and there after insects,
and great bees come buzzing round, ailnred by
the odor of the stocks, but subsequently re-
pelled bv the intense cabbagy smell of their
stalks. Far oat in the offing one sees the smoke
of the steamer going to Genoa or to Mai«eilles,
and the white sails of feluccas gleaming in the
sunlight. There is no hum^ of industry, and
there is no rattle of any carriage. Even the
women, come to wash their clothes in what was
formerly the cistern of the garrison, do not
sing. If onedldnotseepeoplemovin(raboat,one
might think one's self in a mined, uninhabited
place like Les Baux, in Prance. The screaminc
whistle of the locomotive taking the folks to
Monte Carlo is subdued when it gets to the end
of the promontorv, and one is too high to hear
the rattling of the carriages in the new town.
The sea moans very little here, and it has no
tide, and the strife with the broken rocks is
visible but not audible. Hence everything is
still seaward, and when one turns landward in
the direction of the grand mountains of cal-
careous stone, the hush that falls upon the
spirit is intensified by their stillness.
I have been up here at night, and have
watched tbe long lines of light from the hun-
dreds of sras-lamps of the opposite promontory
at Monte Carlo. There the skill of the engineer
and the lavish expenditure of M. Blanc have
wrought marvels. Terrace upon terrace have
been built up or cnt out, according to necessi-
ties, and these have been turned into fairy gar-
dens. The lamps shine in long lines of tiers of
light, and show clearly the white stone balus-
trading, and tbe summits of pagodas and kiosks.
The date-palms raise in every direction their
coronals of long leaves, and tbe tall flowering
stalks of the aloes seem like delicate fountains.
One can see from this old promontory, dark and
and gloomy and seemingly untenanted, the gay
groups wandering among the gar ens, so nar-
row is the bay. It would be, of course, impossi-
ble to see individuals ; bat one recognizes the
bustle, the life, the motion, one sees objects as-
cending the long slopes that lead to the terrace,
and one detects othor objects moving against
the dark masses of shrubs and flowering trees.
The hotels and the villas and tbe caf^ of that
fair land of vice are brilliantly illumined, and
seem to betoken all sorts of pleasant en-
joyments and wonderful pleasures. Tbe strains
of the band come floating over trie dark waters
to the silent south end of the promontory.
Music and revel and dance are there, and all
the fierce delights of the gambler. Perhaps
some one at this moment may be winning heaps
of bright yellow gold, may be stuffing all his
pockets with napoleons and 20-Ure pieces, sur-
rounded by an admiring throng of beautiful
women and distinguished men. In the caf6s
men are sipping pleasant coffee and delicate
llqineurs ; in the restaurant-i, in rooms fretted
with gold, rich with sculpture, and dainty with
frescointr, men and women are savoring with
delight the most exquisite dainties and tossing
down the most perfect wines. There are to that
camped city of sensual delights representatives
from all the nations of tbe earth. Who among
them all has one thought for the little watch-
tower of Christian civilization that guarded the
cities of tne Mediterranean from the assaults of
corsairs, from ruin, a d from slavery i Not one —
not one! And yet tbe little city did its duty
manfully by Christendom in the days that are
past. And who shall say that when the Tartar
reigns in the place of tbe Turk such places as
Monaco may not become once again a necessi-
ty t We may have Muscovite pirates that will
be as terrible a* any that ever sailed under the
standard of the Prophet, when the Black Sea
becomes a Muscovite lake, and all its ships are
sheltered by tbe guns of the Bosphoms Pass.

HicH nmnrrioir— THE LiTPEBim vethoo
AS BXCEMTLT TESTED BT TBE VmZI OAL-
LBBT AT FLOBESCB.
Ever since sU things, religion inelnAed,
in -the progreeetre, erltiesl spirit of the nine-
teenth century, havis become to be mbmitted to
the tests of exaet seienoe to ascertain the pre-
cise degree and qnaUty of timth they contain,
with the aim to purge them of all false element*,
the "old masters" hare received their share of
anatytleal attention. In general, the pnbUe has
viewed their 0'>tward appearance nnder one of
two aspeots, according to its own esthetic pro-
cliTlties. Tbe more imaginative persons have,
loolted upon old pietnre* as veiled by time in a
material mysterionsness, ehlefly caused by
chemical changes in oils and colors, harmpniz-
Ing and toning them down to a certain luminous
pitch, equalizing all parts, greatly enhancing
the general effect, and making them full of po-
etical suggestivensss to the reciprocating mind,
just as a sun-penetrated mist frequently gives a
fairy-like look to a landscape, obscuring its de-
fects and blending itsbeanties into one snper-de-
llghtsome esthetic unity.
On the other liand, the harder and more ^si-
tive mind looks m»on tbe same works as having
lost their originaH>rightness and clearness, and
believes that the veiled mystery which gives so
much pleasure to tba more poetical mind, is
merely an illusion produced by repeated var-
nishes, discolorations by dirt, and those un-
happy restorations which have been in vogue
until qnite lately, to the serious detriment of all
original work.
It is clear tiiat if time does generate delicate
changes in oil-colors, augmenting their esthetie
effects— for there is here no question as to tem-
pera colors, which are unchangeable in this
aspect — there is no process by which they could
be brought back to their first condition. In
this event we most accept them just as age dis-
closes or obscures their latent merits, and be
gmtefnl if, as with soand human character,
they develop unsuspected beauties by their
longer intercourse with the outer world.
Whatever may be tbe precise amount of fact in
this view of the old masters, it is the popular
one, and that their enjoyment is immeasurably
enlarged by the mystery of which we speak
cannot be doubted, Neverthlkss, there is
somewhat to be urged for the contrary opinion,
which seeks to probe this mysterionsness
to its bottom to find out how far it is
real or fictitious, with tha hope of enabling
a spectator to see an old picture in its primitive
aspect* without illusions ot any sort Much de-
pends on the various methods of the masters
themselves and their individual aims and mo-
tives. After much study, I i)elleve that with
many,especially where there are subtle fusionsof
oil-tints and successive glazing, time does deepen
their general tones and produces that effect-
ive sense of mystery whioh in susceptible minds
culminates in the highest enjoyment painting
can confer. Such works are best let alone.
There are, however, innumerable old pictures
whose best qualities undoubtedly are hidden be-
neath layers of dirt and varnishes, which it
is advisable to remove by any safe process that
will leave the real painting twneath in its rleht-
fttl condition. It, in addition, all repaintines
could be likewise removed, we should see only
tbe veritable handiwork of the original artist
himself, and the intrinsic value of galleries
would be increased, even if in some instances
tbe general esthetic effects were somewhat
diminished. But we should gain in that art
truth which is the solid basis of all correct ap-
preciation and etndy, while the intact pictures
would prove a sate guide as to what would be
the appearance' of tbe injured ones had they
never been tampered with.
Every gallery contains specimens of mutilat-
ed pictures which it is hazardous to touch, be-
cause no one can tell how much injury lies con-
cealed beneath the varnishes and repaintings.
and yet the merits of the original work are so
obvious that there is a pressing temptation,
even a duty, to run some risk in order to ex-
pose their true condition. When restorations
have been ma<le in colors mixed in vsmish they
are easily removed without harm to tbe paint-
ioe underneath; but if the repainting*was done
inoil,a solvent sufficiently strong toremoveitis
liable also to attack and injure the original work.
Hence it is that the so-called cleaning of pic-
tures by the ordinary alcoholic solvents aided
by the knife, ha* resulted in varied damage to
numberless old masters dorine the past three
centuries.
Still, it is only recently that this species of
damage has attracted investigation, and atten-
tion has been given to the discovery of safer
methods of cleaning, and more judicious
systems of mending 'or restoration, limiting
them to doing nothing more than is necessary to
preserve a work from falling to pieces and to
repairing it only where it can be done without
Impairing its original specific character and ap-
pearance.
Prof. Pattenkofer, of Munich, discovered the
facile alcbolie process which by evaporation
dissolves the old varnishes and brings away
with them tbe combined dirt and repaintings
when done in varnish. lea vine the original sur-
face comparatively clean and pure. The King
of Bavaria g»ve him $20,000 for bis discovery.
It does not, however, respond to all the require-
ments of a perfect process. Signer Luperini,
of Pisa, now claims to have found one, and as
bis system has just been put on trial by the
Uf&zi Gallery at Florence, and is exciting mnch
attention here, it is worth our while to take
note of it.
A commission of artists and restorers, hav-
ing been appointed by the Government to re-
port on it, has given a mixed decision in three
forms. ITie majority warmly indorse it ; two
others recommend it in a qualified, ambiguous
manner, while Profs. Ciseri and Sorbi strongly
condemn it, believing it has notably changed
the painting for the worse which was snbmitted
to its test. This was No. 263 of the Pitti Gal-
lery, tbe famous " St. John tbe Baptist," by
Andrea del Sarto. Some of your readers may
recall it as a very dark work, impossible to f ally
make ont, and liberally endowed with veiled
mystery. 'Those wh > look on it now, since it
came from Luperini's hands, may fall to recog-
nize it under its new aspecta. Its thick
layers of dirt and vamisha* and repainting
have entirely disappeared, bringine out a
hitherto invisible rocky back ground, fine con-
tours and folds of drapery, oarefnlly painted
fur, subtle and exquisite modeling of body
and extremities, animated features, lumiuous,
speaking eyes, and o:her ctjarming details,
snowing a most carefully executed work in
Andrea s best body-coloring, apparently sa it
was l>efore be gave it the final glazings.
- What has become of them 1 Notwithstanding'
its wonderful merits, t he " St. John" now presents
a flayed look,^ out of internal tone and harmony,
cold and raw in trenerai fiiatures. In short, it
is out of tune. Comparing it to the other An-
dreas of the Pitti, few, if any, connoisseurs
would irtve it the preference as an esthetic
whole. iSTevertbelees, the advocates of the sys-
tem'claim that it has put the picture In precise-
ly that condition in which Andrea left it,'and
if the entire Pitti eallery could be similarly
treated, the world would see the great old mas-
ters as they were when first fliiished— clear,
bright, and positive lookinr. Taking the " St.
John" as a sample specimen. I for one say God
frrbid to this proposition. If Andrea left th:s
picture in its present condition he never could
liave completed it To my view, however, he
did pot in Its final glazings and manipulations,
whioh were its greatest glory. But these must
have lieen removed, either by some wanton re-
storer ion? ago, who covered up his mischief by
gross repainting and darkeninz varnishes,
spoiling the best points of the picture, or else
tDi» Luperini process, carried too far, has dene
this misehiaf. ThU I am not disposed to be-
lieve, but atttibuts the injnries to pAst work.
That tbe Lnperinl process does speedily and
effectually remove dut, Tamlahes, and estrane-
ons mbstanee* from paintiBgs, other tests snf-
fldently prove, tnit over all that I have sees

I must not close this, however, witbont speak-

artist expert of great experience, in Florence.
His preparation was applied both to tempera
and oil pictures of very considerable value, laid
on by brash, and It Immediately softened the
rtmuhes and surface accumulations, enabling
them to be easily wiped off, leaving the original
snrtaoe clean, perfect in tone, and solid in fig-
ment as when first painted, completely retain-
ing the indescribable luminous lustre and marks
ot an untampered condition which the ex-
perienced eye so values in old masters,
and which once lost eannot be replaced. Judg-
ing from the test4 of both processes I have
seen, that of Mazzanti seems the safer, if
slownr, and besides being wholly innocuous is
so simple that it can be intrusted to any one
with a keen eye knowing anything of old pic-

and when he [Sheridan ] retamed from Colorado he
was arrested on a char^ of aasnalt and battery — the
eharae being made, of conrse, by the chap who had
l>*sn banished from the reservation. When tbe ease
came to trial a jnry was impaneled, and the Jnstice
of the Peane reviewed the ovidenre in a very solemn
speech. He reasoned from analoKy. He said that in
Enri'pe sovereigns had a right to eo npon military
reserrations and conld not be pnt of. In this eoan-
tTT every man was a sovereiKU. and therefore had a
rl.;fat to tfo on a reservation, and nobody could put
him off. He therefore recommenced to the jury that
they return a verdict of cuilty. The jnrv did aa the.v
were charged, and he was fined $100. Tbe Geneml
added that that was the most saccessfnl suit ever
brought against him.
iflLITABT CADETS IN GESMAXY.

— A NEW CENTRAL ESTABLISHMENT NOW
BEING CONSTRCCTED.
The number ot cadets in the Pmssiau military
eollCTea amoants altogether] to 2,003. Of these,
1.000 are admitted on reaased rates of payment,
the annnal sabseriptions required from them being
In some cases only 99 marks, in ottiers ISOmarxs,
and In others 300 aiarlu. The remainlu: 1.008 pay,
if Fruisian subjects, 780 marks, or nearly $200, a
year; If foreigners, l,0ij0 marks, or $370 a year,
to defray the expense of their edacatioa and mslnCe*
n*nee. These sums are not Isrge, bat U is fonnd
that tb«y are In many instanses too hi^h to be paid
by tbe sons of deceased officers ; and that conse-
quently many youn; men who desire to enter the
the Army and follow their fatber'a profession are
unable to do so, and their services are therefore lost
to the State. In a bill recently Uid before the Reich-
stag It is therefore proposed to set aside a snm of
2.000,000 marks to form a capital fund, the interest
of whioh is to be osed to defray in part the expense
of educating 15 Scadets.
A cential establishment Is bein^ eonstmcted
at Llehtprfeld, a few miles to tbe south
ot Berlin, and is now so nearly eompleied that
It la confidently expected that it will be opened
dar,ng the approaching Summer. Tbe establish,
ment comprises altogether 'JO bnildlnes, the four
lantest of which are narracks. each containing ac.
eommodation for between 200 and 250 cadets,
toiiether with tbe olflners appointed to snperin-
tend them. The stables attached to the riding
schools nave stalls for 60 horses. The hospitals for
severe eases of illness, and the siek.qnarters for con.
valescents and for those snifering from lighter ail.
ments only, are spitclons and well rentiUted. Tailors'
and shoe-makers' workshops are provided, and also
bakeries and a slaafchter-houoo, in order that the
establishment may be as independent as possible of
the onter world. The piTStles will hold more than a
handred pizs. and there are extensive ponltry-yards
for the breeding of Keese, ducks, and fowls. The
water-worits can supply 310 cnbic metres of
Rood drinking-water, and aito<rether 620 metres
of water daily: and this can be Isld on to any part of
the bnildini-s. as • water- tower 12.^ feet high has been
erected. Tbe gas-works are desianed to supply
900,000 cnbic metres of sn* during the year. A
casino is provided for the officers and officials of the
establishment, aud they are also to have a separate
sarden for their own use. Twenty mfnntes' walk
from The barracks lies the Teltower Lake, and in this
a swimminiz scfaool for the eadets will be arranged.
Finally a railway la projected to ran from the estab-
lishment, by way of Steslitz and Friedenau, to the
Zoological Gardens, where it will terminate in the
station of the town railway of Berlin; bnt until this
Is ronstmeted there will he a regular omnibus ser.

TBE SALE OF TOBACuO J.V FBAKOE.
The AUact JoHmal relates tbe following anec-
dote of the way la which the Government monopoly
of the sale of tobaoco was introdaced Into France.
One eTenlng in November. 1810, a conrt ball was
takinc place in the Taileries. and among the com-
pany present was a lady conspieuons not only by rea-
son of her beaatr, but also on ooooant of the hril.
llaney and size of tbe diamonds she wore and the
eenernl richness of her dress. The Emperor Napo-
leon. strnck by her appearnnee, inr^aired who she
WHS. In reply be was told that she was tha wife of a
merchant, who had made an immense fortune by the
sal* of tobacco. " The baslnQ-«s is a profitable one,
tiien I" remarked the Emperor; and the result was
that on the 29th of December. 1810. and the
llth of January, ISII. decrees were is.
sa«d secnrlnz to the ' State tbe excl^ive
rizht of mitnnfarturini; and sellini tobacco, A
Qermsn writer who has Jnst pnblisbed a pamphlet
on the sab.iect calculates that If a similar monopoly
were introdaced into Germany, and if cUears and to
banco were Bo1rt at the same price as in Fracee. an
annual revenue nt 533.000,000 marics wonld flow
into the Imperitii E.tchpquer; an income which, after

Interest on tbe ftapiial which would have to be sunk
In establlshlns the msnafHctories, would, tbe writer
urges, materially assist in defraying the expenses of
maintaiuinft the German .-Vrmy and Navy, It must
be added, however, that the calcalatlons of profit con-
tained In the p.smpbiet referred to are cenerally re.
garded a* exaggerated, even by those who are ad\*o.

THE NtJHSERY STABLE.
At Babylon. Iionfc Island, is situated tbe
Nnrsery stud farm of Angn-ti Belmont. Esq., a gen-
tleman who haa done moeh to nlaee the tnrf in a
respectable position. Tbe Karsery takes precedence
as the oldest of the raeinv establishments in this
▼idnity, and Its success hft« been sufficiently remliner-
atire to satisfy its Uberal owner. The uncertainty
of racing has been exemplified during the last three
years In the uds and downs of Hr. Belmont's estab-
llsbment. Previona to 1871 his name was foand at
the head of the winning list, but others bare taken
the honors nntil in 1876. wnen he again came to the
front and headed the list of winners with S40.S00;
bnt last year he was down a<rain for less than $10.-
000. It was said during last Winter that Mr. Bel-
mont had sold off all bis 2-rear olds, and that the
Nnrsery would make a poor display the cominz sen-
son, bat tbe list of horses in training does not hear
ont this report. "Modem Babylon " has not fallen,
and it will send ont a division strong enonen to win
a eood share of tbe spoils. Jockey William Hey-
ward has succeeded Jacob Ptncut as trainer, and has
the assistance of young Feake«tin preparlna the Nur-
sery string, which nambers 17 head. There is a trio
of h-year olds to commencMrith. and FiddleKtif*k. by
I^xington, oat of imjJort^PFiUUrree, she by Stoffc-
well, nrst claims attention. He whs verv surcessf nl
as a 3- year oM. rnd won the Withers and Oean Hotel
Stakes, nnd only lost the lielmont bv his trainer
underratine the abilitie» of his opponents. Last
year he started hut three times, and was un^tnccess-
fnl, for (rrent care had lo be exercised to s«ve him
from breaidDU down, as hi« lees are not of the h»st.
The seroitd on the list is Clematis, by Kentucky,
out of imported Flenr des Champ. wh<>
has appeared twlre ^nly, and then in
his 2-year-old form He has tieen a tronbleso'sie
horse to train, and has never developed mnch of the
racing qnatUies which fllstin&rulRhed bis sire. The im-
poricd mare Daantles*. by Maccsroni, out -^ Arties.",
is a well- ore *ervad and stout racer. She Rtnrtojl
but twice in 1875, and but twice in tbe follnwin?
year, and therefore in her 4.-yeiir-old form wa-i en-
abled to do some hHrd work without Impnirtns; her
chances for the coming season. Stnrtiuz 11 time«.
she won four races, was second once, and third four
times. She U entered In-the Jockey Club Handicap,
while tbe twofimt mentioned are i.i the shorter ra^.
tbe Fordbam Handicap. There is a couple of 4-year
olds — tbe filly Snsqaehi^unfi. I>y Leaminzton.
ont of Susim Besn, by Lexineton. and Bar-
oness, by Kentucky, out of Lndv Blewinarton.
by imp. Eclipse. It wns Sosquphanna thitt saved
the Nursery stable from sinking into ntier insignifi-
cance la»t year, as ont of the $10,000 credited to
toe stable, she \I»ne won .¥7.500. Startlnz in eizht
rtices, she won three of them, wa^ sec-
ond once, and third twice. He* first ef-
fort was in the Maryland S'.akes. when
she was beaten br Zo^i Zoo and Idalia :
but when th** same trio met in the Alabama Stake, at
Saratoga, Susqnehanna created mu'-b of a sAnsation
by earrying the '" maroon and ro'J " to the front.
In the Kenner Stakes she wss uni>l«oed to Bnzil.
but ran second to the Utter in the Jerome ScnkeK.
Winning the Hunter Stakes, she was sent to BaJtl-
more, and aopeared in both the Dixie and Breckin-
ridge Stalces, but only itnrreeded in SHlninc the third
Slace in the first-named event. On the e.^tra day at
ero.ne Park f^be won a dx&h of a mile and a quarter,
defeating King Faro, winner of the D'r±ie Stake.
She has wintered well, and is apparently stronser
and better ab e to stnnd a severe fteason than she wh-'^
last yesr, when she was very low in flesh. Baroness,
although a fall sister to Connt d'Orsay, has yet to
scora her first victory. She started once as a 2-year
old. and four times Uwt year, and whs placed onco.
In the 3-year-old string are tbe zeldin»« Ravioli and
Baffler. The first narae-J started once, runninit third
to Fawn at the Jerome Park Spring meeting. Baffler
hii% not yet beep shown. Tbe fillies are Beresina. by
Kentncky, outof imp.. Bemice, and one unnamed, by
Glenelg. ont of Gr«?^ian Bend.by Lei'tnzton The let-
ter started once, and was nnplaced. There are eipht
2-year olds. There are four by Kinsfisher, who
was a great rac^orse in his dav. He was the win-
ner of the Tfav«s Stake in 1870. and the only com-
petitor of Longfel.ow for the Saratoga Cup in the
following year. Mr. Elelmont paid a large sum for
him. and I is admirers msistefl that he was a better
horse than the one owned by Mr. Harper. He broke
down, however, but bids fair to make a reputation in
the stud. His danzbter, Oriole, belonginc to Gov.
Bowie, is very fa«t, and ran soihe «oo.l rnc^s la?tt
year. The younestera have all been named, and
those by Kiugflsher are the geldinc Maronite. oat
of Maroon. bvGlencoe. and the ftlUcs, Fiddlestrins.
out of Filliirree, (Fiddlestick's dam;) Carissl-
ma, out of imn. Camilla, by Kinc Tom. nnd
Bettlna, out of Ber- ire, by Stockwell. There i«
also a geldin? named Baptist, by The III Used, out of
Babta, and a filly. Genjvra, by Australian, out of
imp. G^enista by King Tom. Two of the lot have
doubtful pedicrees on the sire's side, for the colt out
of Lady BloRsineton named i^ord Lytton i^ <i.aid to be
by Kentucky or Kingfisher; and Lucky Hit. out of
imp. Flake, by Worin^elv. is record&d as beins sired
by Kentucky. Kingfisher, or Count dOrsay. Mr.
Belmont has t>een uufortunate in this matter, for
several other of his horses in prev ons years have
doubts cast on their lineage. This denotes carele*s
nesM in tbe attendants at tne farm. Besides the
foregoine, there is a 2year old filly named Mae-
netism. byKinifishcr, out of Attraction, belonging to
Mr. Perry Belmont, and entered In the Joveoilc
Stakes.
■ ^
SNEDIKER'S STABLE.
Of the public stables perbaps that of Epb.
Snediker is tbe most powerful and important one.
This trainer has added to bis repatation wonderfully
In the last two years, as his horses have appeared at
the starting-post In good condition. Snediksr's head-
quarters are at Jerome Par;c where he has been all
Winter, and has taken full advantase of the mild
weather to have his string in good eondltion for tbe
opening races. Eleven horses are now takiue their
dally exercises at the Park in his care, though owned
by differect parties, inolndln? those belonging to the
Dwyer Brothers, of Brooklyn. At the head
of the string is the black horse Rhadam&n-
thns. His wonderful turn of speed has served
his owners well, and although not a horse of good
constitution, he was so well managed that last year
he went through a long season with profit to hi<
owners. Last year he started in 15 races, won six
of them, was second five times, in severnl of them
givinc his opponents the advantage in weight: was
third once, and nnpla<»d three time^ His entire
wluninffs amountea to $2,415. The next on
tbe list is the old campaigner Gat way, now
8 years old. He is owned by G. B. Bry-
son. Starting eleht times, last year, be was
twice a winner, was three times third, and three
time! anplaeed. He la ensased in the JocKey Club
Handicap, two miles, at Jerome Pai:k. One of the
5-year olds is Fuzitive, a verv fast eelding. by Lcam-
In'zton, ont of Ulrica, by Lexington, formerly tde
property of Pierre Lorilliird. but nowown*jdhyj
W.Bell. He has not shown himself «Me t<» stay a
distance, bnt is bard to beat at a mile or a mile and
a quarter, which is his limit. He appcaroi nine
times last year, woo tore* times, was third once,
and nnpUced five times. His flrst eninnr^ment for
thi* year is in the Fonlham Handicap, of one mile
and a quarter. The otner 5-year old is the bi^c
fellow, Bertram, bred by 3Ir. AniEn'«t Bel-
mont, bnt who sold his mclng qnnlitiea to
J. H. Harbec^. Jr., last year- He la a hor*e of im-
mense size, standing nearly 17 bands high, and is
probably the largest thorotuhhred horse in the
eonntry. He is of a vlcions disnosition and difficult
to manasre. and has to run in blinders. Pussessinc a
considerable amount of spewd, he is a scarce of great
annoyance to his owner nnd to bfs backer-t in gen-
eral ; for on several occasions, when apparently win-
nioir. he showed the white feather when challeaged
at the flntxh. ' But this was proimbly owing to his
uzly temper rather than cowardice. As a 3-year
old he WB-^ very nccesfal. He won three races
for Mr. Belmont, including the Jersey Derby aud
Monmoath Sequel Stakes, and lautt ji^ar did more
work than any other horae In the Eastern Circuit,
appearing in 19 races ; bnt be only won two of
them, was second three times, third twice, aud 12
times unplaced. In several of these nices, however,
he failed to get off w.th the othen«, and fell in the
mile heats at Bnliimore alter winnine the first heat.
He Is re^iarded by the betting fraterni.y as a two-
edtied sword 'hat cut:t both ways, for although a Itad
hone to back, it i* UkewUo daiuerons to l.i>- heavily
against him. His ouljr Spring eugagement is the
Furdhnm Handlcjip.
There are two eood ones among the 4-yetr old*.
Cub . by Ijeamlnffton, ont of Reran, by Lexinffton,
is small m size hat very speedy. H" U parily owned
by Mr. Snfdiker. who thlnics Cubri quite as cood as
Rhadamatbus over the 'Z-yMP old coarse, and bet-
ter over a longer dlstaa-e. He w;t« not ru'i a^ a
2-year old, bat last year he started eight tline^ nnd
was ihri'-e reeordeda wiiraer ; was seound once, third
twice, and unplaced twice. His eutiri winiiinirs
amounted to 92. 145.^ In the Doswell Stakes, which
be won. be defeated such oo^d ones as Bombast an<l
Idalia. He is emmgecl In the Kancorn* Handicap, one
mile and an eighth, to be run at Baltimore, and in
the Fordbam tinndicap. Ivjuination is another
4-year oid and U by Longr'ellow. out of Bettie
^^Nishincton, by Lexiufton. He was bred by Mr. D. J.
Banuatyne, and ia a aaaitnificeut look ng colt, but
was unCortnimte lass year, as he did not train well,
and his only appearaaoe was in the Travers Stake
at Saratt^ga. 'He Is apparently one ot tho-<e colts

she ts well engaged in the stakes.
TAYLOR'S STABLE.
At Monmouth Park the trainer Is Anthony
Taylor, who. after waiting during the Winter for
consignments, has at last got a string of elg^ttbor-
onghbreds in charge, <f>cln^fag % part of the Longstaff
Stable. It is said that these horses have changed
^nds, and that they will run here during the com-
ing season, but the American Jockey Club will re-
quire proof of lezitimate transfer before they will
be allowed to take part in anr event
while the penalty of expulsion acainst Longstaff re-
mains in force. 'It Is to be hel eved. however, that a
eentleman has made an offer for tbe horses aa a
nucleus for a stable, and that Taylor Is to fit them
for the campiUgn. At the head of 'the string is the
I good old horse Shrlock. now 9 year* old. and who
has been on the tu.-f for six years. The old f*»!low
looks well, and is apparently ahle to run as fast as
, when he won the W*«tchester Cud in 1874. He ran
1 1 times la'it year, won three times, was second five
timex, was once third, and was twice unplaced. This
is pretty good for an old horse, especially as most
of the races were over a distance of
ground. Partnership Is now 7 years old, and is of
the ro;teh horse pattern, but nevertheless very fast,
and han run some, eood raeea. U.e appeared in 15
, ntces la-t year, of which be won four, wa* second
five times, third four tim*s, and twice nnplaeed.
i There is plenty of ran In PaftiersMp yet. however.
Taylor is now training him for cross conntrr work, and
, as hs has b<>th size and speed he will doubtless make

sticker as demonstrated by winning the heats of

, he gave Ambnsh four, and Henry Owens e'^srht.
pounds in weieht for ace. He. too, is beinc initiated'
into the iffi?ulcies of the field, and over the hurdles,
at two' miles, will be bard to beat. Hifglns, a
-i-y^ar old. is small nnd compact, with a short stout
bMck and loins and one of the toneh kind that travel
lone distKnees. It was tne frandalent race between
I this colt and Piper Heidselck that resulted in the dis-
grace of Lfongstaff, who draoged down young Barbee.
I .1 ! ood ri'liuir jockey, with him. The la<tt of the
, string is a 3-yesr-oid bay colt, by Bavwood, out of
Lazy (VazratK's dam.) by imp. iscythian. formerly
I belonrine to Col. McOanlel. He startert twice last
. year, but whs unsuccessful. He has some stake en-
I irasementK. but has not developed any marked dis-
tinctions as a race-horse.
Besides the above, reeoenized as the Longstsff
strip;?. Taylor has three others beloneinR to different
parties. New-Tork is a eh. h., 6 years old, by Planet,
out of Hester, by Lexincton. and consequently a
half brother to Springbok. He was trained for
jumping last ypsr. and oni^ of 11 starts won two
races. Lord ZerUnd i« another 6 year old, bv Lex-
ington, out of Liz Mardis. by imp. Gleneoe, and, al-
tliouffh one of the best Ored horses on the turf, has
been a siintl failure. He was formerly own»i by
John Uhamberlin. and last year Mr. J- B. Pryor
tried what he conld do with him. but he only started
once, in a three-quarter dash at tx>ng Branch, mn-

ALBERT EDWARD AT THE LATEST OPERA.
BALL — HOW HE PRESERVED HIS INCOG-
NITO—THE STORY OF AX AMERICAN
GIRL ABRO\D,
A correspondent writing from Paris to a Lon-
don newspaper of the Prince of Wales' doings at the
latest opera ball say^: "Tbe muks themselves
were not blameless in this matter of papular delu-
sion, for they wufutly confirmed the wild guesses of
the crowd by what must have been mendaelons re-
ports— 'Mais il est trit gentil, ce Prince RoyaV *And
his French — O, I assure you, not the slightest trace

'They told me before I went in to pretend to take
him for a Frenchman. Imbecile ! don't you see that
be TOO has to wear a mask, when he comes here?'
Americans rush in where sylphs (at least) of the
opera ball fear to tread, and. as the story
eoes, all these well-meant endeavors to preserve
the iacojii^o were frustrated by a lively lady from
tbe Stntes. 'I want to see him : that's what I want —
there !' and. after a fesble resistance, her word be-
c tme law to the member of the jockey to whom she
mentioned the wish. * But you must speak Frenen.*
'[shall speak just what Unsusge I like — there.'
' We are a mixed Jot in tbe loge ; you

domino — what does 'that shmlfv to met' They
went in — note the oecAsional circumstantiatity
of the leifend— and the mysterious fair one opened
tne conversation in the choicest Bostonese. Her
illustrjons interlocutor answered her in as choice
English — bon sang na petit vtentir, even in aport.
' May I ask you a guestion 1' said the Bostonian.
• Cert inly, if yon will let me renlv in my own way.'
•Then what do you I'ere T' 'What do you f 'I

TSR GEll3lA.y MQSEYOBDER SYSTEM.
FroTa the Manchester Courier,
The Post Oili2C-3ioney order system in this
country is clumsy and unsatisfactory. It involves a
creat waste of time on the part of the sender and the
receiver of the sums transmitted, a ouriously com-
plicated and cumbersime system of book-keepii^ in
the Post Offie* and, if we mistake not, oceasiona a
loss to the department. The postal facilities in Ger-
many for the transmission of moneyare mnehgreater
than those in this country, and are specially adapted
to meet the requirements and convenience of the
persons concerned. The German Post Office ordera
for tbe year ltt76 exceeded in vxlne tho^e of Eng-
land and Prance toeetjwr by about J143.OO0.OtW
Bterttne. showing that the system in operation*in
that country is far more popular and effective
than either the EnzUsh or French. Not only
does the German Post Office Issue orders for
money, but the postman pays tbe money to tbe per-
son for whom it is intended, at Ms house or place of
busineHs.receivias a receipt for the amount on a form
printed at th'e back of the order. By this means the
loss of time occasioned to the payee by personal at-
tendance, or attendance by deputy, at the Pon Office
for the receipt of the money, and much irritation
and annoyance are avoided. The cost for this ser-
vice is 2 pence for lOO marks. (£5.) 3 pence for 200..
and 4 pence for 300, and the system works both ex-
ce-^insly well aud profitably. Not only does the
German Post Office deliver money direct to the per-
sons to whom it is sent, but it coUee s
sums of money which may be owins, and hands
them over to tba creditor. For this puriK>«e
there Is what is called a t^o'tal demand note.
oontHining on one . side the amount and
ottier particulars of tbe sum owln^;. and on the other
the name and ndd«e8> of the creditor. If the money
be not paid on application, tbe demand note is re-
tainf'd by the Post Office for a week unless the credi-
tor determines otherwise, and then presented again
to the debtor, and. if not then paid.it is relumed
post fro - to the creditor. Tbe charge for tbe ponial
demand note is 3 pence, and if the money is obtained
and ivmitted. 2 oence more is retailed, making 5
pence tor the collection of a debt, for the safe trans-
mission of which the Po-^t Office, on giving its receipt
for the amount, holds itself responsible. It would,
perhaps, be too much to exoect the Enzlisb Pos-t
Office to uniertake tbe collection of debts, but the
German mon<*y-order sysrem mlcht apparently be
studied and imitated with advantage.
HOSPITABLE BETOXD HER MEAITS.
From the CharUttetviUe CVa.} CAronicfe. AprH 12.
' A clereytnan travelinf? in the mountains of
West Virginia pat np for the night at the house of a
pious old lady, who never refused 'to entertain
strangers, lest baply an angel might be turned from
her door unawares. Shortly after his arrival supper
was aiinounced. and the old ladv, after a blessing
had been invoked, beean to rattle the enps and
saucers preparatory to the matronly cereooouy of
gpoarlng oat and handing around the hot corCee. It
wa** customary to make the inquiry, and therefore
the eood dajie, with a graciuns smile. Inquired of her
; gueKt:
• ' • Do you take sugar in youm 1 "
**If you -lease." replied the hunory and thincty
evanzelist. "and I'll be obliged if you makt; it tolera-
bly sweet"
The old lady began to twist in her chair, adjuvt her
I icpertacles. and look searehinzly ar lund tbe table.
I She dipped the spoon desperately in the blue china
soKar-bowl bnt It rattled ominotulv acainst tbe
sides of the emptv vessel. At last «iie summoned
eonrase to tell the truth. With admirable pluck and
candor she opened her mouth and spake, and the
words thnt reached the e&r of her guest were these :
"Stranger, we hain't It."
I FOOD FOR TUB DEAD.
TheSasramsnto (CaL) Union ot the 1st inst
says: '* A larje number of Chtnem — 10 or 12
' wagonloads— went oat to tha City Cenetery yester-
day to feed the spirits of their dead, takinir with
i them a quantity of roast pork and such other artl-
I cles as a well-regulated spirit of the Chinese per-
suasion is expected to relish. The food was placed
upon the temifes, and over each grave was poored a
bottle of whisky. A number of tramps stood
amon-; the spectators, and seemed much grieved at
the wa-te of the fluid. They made up ttMir minds
to get even by secarini; th? food after Che- ChiBaman
lefts but the latter have by expArieoee geown ■marc,
and when they bad gVven the s[^rita a raaaooabla
length of time to seeare a square meal, they loaded
VD the Tlcttuls and bioacht duya bMk to teva.?

I Bev. John Baptist Alzog, D. D., who was
1 notedforhis work in ecclesiastical hiwtorv, bae
I died at Freiburg. Germany. H^s boolt. Cniver*
, sfU Bistorff of the Christian Churchy was issued
! in 1840. He was connected with the Universl-
, ty of Freiburg, and was called to Borne as a con-
suitor in the Vatican Counul.
j Bev. Emanuel Van Orcen, an indepen-
dent missionary in Brazil, ba-s as the remit of
t nine months' labor, oreanized a church of nine
j members at Rio Grande do SnL The church
j unanimously voted not to admit slaveholders
I unless they set their slaves free, and one, a
I physician, who ownedone, did so before joining.
I The narrative of -the state of reli^on in
the bounds of tbe Chicago Presbyrery, pre-
sented at tbe recent session of that body.' states
that the church-debt paying revival bae
reached Chicago and vicinity, and nine churches
report the payment of an aggregate of $129.-
200; Ten churches are still strngsUng with
d^ts. During the year the churches re*
oened 1,414 members on confession of £aitb.
A bill is before th'S English Parliament to
enable every church establisbmenl and build-
ing to be insured in an insurance company to
be composed exclusively of churchmen and
clergymen, the proceeds on profits whereof, in-
stead of, u» now. flowing into the coffera ot
public insurance companies, would revert back
t to tbe Church, -which would ultimately receive
! the advantages of tbe present compulsory insn-
j ranee of religious edifices.
I In the Free Church Presbvtery of Edin-
burgh an overtare to the Assembly has been
adopted, after a long and warm discui^sion. bya
vote of 47 to 12, a.sking the Assembly to de-
I clare that the movement of certain ministers of
I the Church looking toward a return to the
I Established Church does not represent the
i Church, and that no modifications of the present
j conditions of the Kirk's connection with the
; State can meet the Free Chuich claim of right.
I Presbyterian! Km has grown bnt little in
: Baltimore. Dr. Backus stated in a sermon re-
j cently that when he entered Baltimore 42 vears
ago. It had 80,000 inhabitants and five 't*re*-
] brterian churches. The population is nowmore
than fourtimes 80,000 .and yettbe Presbyterian
churches nnmbe only 14.Hiid theiacreaseofthe
Presbyterian churches kept pace with the in-
crease of the population, there would now be
more than 20 ; yet there has been no advance
since 186».
The committee charged with the matter
last year has reported on the nroposed Potter
Memorial fionse, and recommend that it be
opened as soon as two or three trained womer
can be obtained to take charge of it. Tbe
committee resolved that " tbe Bishop appoint
seven clerermen and four laymeo, who,
with himself, shall constitute a Board of Conn-
cil to establish and Rupervise an in^ritDtion for
the training of deaconesses in ac-cordance with
the foregoing report, to be 'ailed * The Bishor
Potter Memorial House for Deaconesses.' "
In June, 1875, Lord Petizanee issued a
monition to Bev. A. H. Mackonochie. of St.
Alt>an*s, Holbom, warning him to leave off cer-
tain ritualistic vestments and pracrices. Mr.
Mackonochie paid no attention to the order. A
u:otion ha just been made before Lord Pen-
zance to enforce obedience to the motion. His
j Lordship said, even at tne eleventh hour, he
would give Mr. Mackonochie an opportunity to
conform to the law. He ordered tbe monition
to be Tiscorded, and stated that if it whu again
disregarded a severe punishment would be in-
dicted. This is snoposed to mean incarceration
in the Middlesex House of Correction.
There has been a warm discnssion in tbe
Society for the Propsuratioa of the Gospel ove:
the action of its Board of Examiners wiUi refer
ence to a candi ate for home miss on work.
The board bad. it appears, requested the candl
date to pot his offer to resign his connection
with the Society of the Holy Cross in writing;
Tbe friends of the latter society complained
that a new test had been demanded, and they
asked that the board be censured. Ivut the mo-
tion was lost. The Society of the Holy Croj^
; since its publication of the manual of oonfea-
; sion. which made such a stir last year, haa been
' regarded with suspicion by a large majority ia *
I the Church.
! Connecticnt, it is thought, has a larger
number of aired Congregational ministers than
' any other State. The oldest three are Rev. Joel
; Mann, of New-Haven, ordained in 181.5 ; Rev.
A Ivan Bond, D. D- of Norwich, ordained in
1819; Rev. William Patton, D. D., of New-
Haven, ordaineo in 1820. There are 14 others
in tne State who can look back upon more thau
50 years of ministerial Life. The senior three
Congregational ministers in Mauachnserts an
Rev. Jacob itle. D. D.. of Medvrav, ordained io
1814; Rev. Leonard Withingion, D. D , oi
Newbury, ordained in 1816, and Rjbv. Hbenezei
Gay, of ^ridgewater. ordained two* rears later.
Dr. Ide parsed his ninety-third birUida^
March 29.
The reports of the condition of th*?
Brahmo Somaj, the native Tbeistic Cbnrch of
India, are somewhat unfavorable. A corree-
pondent of the or^^n of the .Somaj says : " The
young men in Government schools do t>ot looL
on the Somaj with favor. The rinng genera-
tion feels little interest in It. Its _wot^ in th»
metroDOlis is almost at a stand-stilL There ij
neither energy, enthusiasm, organization,
preaching, nor ler tur.ne : snd for want of the^
Brabmoisra lancruisUea." Fifty of the churchy*
have declared their adherence to the plan of or-
ganization proposed by Cbunder Sen. that i*. ■
representative council. The same nnmber o*
churches have protected against the marrixi^ o!
Mr. Sen*s 13-year-old daughter with a Brahmin
Prince of only 15.
The Young Men's Christian Union .'of Bre-
ton, is a vigorous Unitarian organization on tbo
? Ian of the Voune Men's Christian Ass^ elation,
ts annual meeting has just been held, at which
reports we^ submitted showing an increaeed
prosperity. During the year more than $27,-
000 was paid out, and the union baa a raenilter-
ship of 3. 356. The money expended was fo;
lectures aad entertainments and for benevolent
work. Situations have been obtained for 13C

^me Tery iburp aad nntempiUons snen, who appoar
to know thli, hare, for MTeral months, bMntrTing to
makomonejfionkof this knowledge, and have met wtth
some saeeeti. So far as the ceporter of Thi Times
was yesterdar able to ascertain, half a dozen firms tn
this City baVe been deeelTod by the plansible man-
ners of a Jiang ot seamps engaged in tbe sort of bos-
Iness referred to, itod foar of them have been swin-
dled out of money. Early In January the ]amber
firm of John Boynton's Sons, of No. 32 Broadway,
received a letter, dated Georgetown, S. C, Jan. 15,
1S7S, aad signed by George Townsend. Mr. Town-
send wrote as follows : " I make shipment of 19Sr
000 feet of South OaroUna yellow pine, all flooring,
and cut last Winter, when sap was down, dear of
shakes and knots, and all in order; 25.000
feet of this is 4-4, and the rest
Is 5-4 when dressed. I^esse Insure earso.
1 shall be on in a few days. The vessel will sail the
ilrst fair wind. If the vessel should arrive before
lue. sell to the best advantage, or hold nt $22 till I
come. If you get more, sell immediately." At the
snme time a letter was Teceive<I from Jsmes Town-
send besriniE the same dste. This writer purported
tn be the father of Georee Townsend, and he hoped
that as the esreo shipped was the first be had sent to
New- York, Boynton s Sons would do well with it.
Towu^end, Sr., made his son his agent, and signed
himself "yours, respectfully," A few days ^ter-
ward a young men, short, stout, with a rather lone
neck. H gCKHl address, nnd an evident famil-
iarity with the lumber bnsineiis, called end intro-
duced himseU as Geor^ Townsend. He said he ex-
pected the schooner in shortly, snd produced the bill
nf lading* This was made out on a printed blank,
with a cut of a steam-ship in the left hand corner,
nnd the word "shipped" in Inrge letters. Itde-
flared that there had been shipped bv Georpe Town-
|tt^nd, on the schooner Helen, John Smith,' master,
from Georgetown, 8. C, to New-York City. 195.000
feet yellow pine bonrds. all flooring, to John Boyn-
ton & S«ns : freJQht $5 50 per 1.000. on Jan. 15.
On the 5latnrdsy following the nrrivsl of the schoon-
er. Mr. Townsen<^ came Into the office and told Mr.
Boynton that tiie vessel was at Red Honk, and would
be ready to discharge on Monday. Mr. Boyntop
wished to send some one over to look nt the lumber,
but Townsend said he had better wait xintil Monday
momini;, an there was a deck load of logs on board
that must first be removed, and that he would let
bim know as earl} as 0:30 when he could look at the
boards. In the afternoon, about 3 o'clock, he re-
turned and said that his father had sent him a dis-
pAtch ordering him to return to Georgetown. He
said a)ao that he was out of mon*'y .and would like to
have $175 i^vanceU. Mr. Boynton objected to pay-
ins; for stufl? he had not seen, bnt as everything ap-
peared to be riffht he paid him $125 and took bis re-
ceipt for it. Mr. Townsend left. On Monday search
was made for the schooner Helen, bnt it was not
found, and the Boyntons have not since heard auy-
thine of their money. Townsend, or the lumber.
Very little publicity was given to this c:iie, and
the men who were successful in fleecing one firm
tried several others. Mr. A. T. Bruce, of Ko. 166
pearl-street, advanced $100 on a bill of lading of na-
val stores, and were unable to find either stores or
vessel. A Jolly sort of seafaring man, who made the
acquaintance of Mr. Jesse Benton, at .No. 80 West-
street, and who had shiuKles to dispose of, carried
out the dodge still more skillfully. He waited sev-
eral days for his schooner, and at last met the Cap-
tain in Benton's office the day he pretended to have
arrived, with warm expressions of delight. He also,
on ^tnrday, was unable to show the shingles, as he
had railroad ties on deck for the Hudson River
Koad. He wanted an advance, and was paid $50,
and on the same day the tie contractdr of the Hudson
Kiver Road paid him $50 on account of freight. The
schooner Flora has not since been heard of. A few
weeks ajTo a man about35 years of age called upon Mr.
Kobert C. Lowry, a lumber broker, at No. 57 Pine-
street, and said he was Mr. Freeman B. Ritchie, of
Tar River. X. C. He looked like a mill man and
talked "lumber" like an expert. He s^id he had
consigned 14.1, OOO feet of pine hoards to Mr. Lowry,
whose name he had found in a business directory,
and whom he considered eood. Mr. Lowry took him
to Wiltiam A. Parke & Co.. at No. l'J4 Front-street.
SB he did not do a commissiou buainesa, and Parke &
Co. airreed to receive the lumber. The man called
QpOQ Mr. Lfowry two or three times, and at last said
he expected to hear of the vessel's arrival soon. On
Saturday morning a man who called himself Capt. C.
H- Gardener, rushed into Parke'n office and announced
that the schooner Sasan had arrived with ihe lumber;
that nbe was in Brooklyn, »nd heivonld soon be ready
to discharge. He produced a bill of ladine made out
at Tar River. Granville County, N. C. cbnsigningthe
cargo to R. C. Lowry. Mr. Parke said he would go over
and look at the lumber. The Captain said that he
bad a load of ineeu fender loirs on deck, and wonid
bave them off^on Monday morning, but that, in the
meantime, be would like an advance to pay off his
creir. Parke & Co. would not pay the advance until
they had seen the lumber, and the Captain left. He
has not been seen since. About the same time that
this attempt was made, a man called upon Wat-
rous 8c Willson. of "Wall-street, on similar
businew. He was a fair talker, and im-
prevted Mr. Watrons favorably. He said
he)]ad a mill at Tar River. X. C. and that he had
shipped on board the schooner Hattie li. Cnrtis, Wil-
B»ms. master. 110,000 teet of best pine boards to
n'atrous & Willson. The visitor said he had picked
Dnt the firm from the mercantile register, as being
one ot the best, and he snopo^ed they would readily
take the consignment. Mr. Watrons at length con-
sented to do so. A few days later the bill of lading,
dated March 30. arrived by mall from Tar Kiver.
and corresponded with the account civen by John
Reynolds, the visitor. An advance was asked for.
Out was refnsed, as the lumber had not been seen. A
proper lencth of time having elapsed for tbe arrival
of the schooner, the Captain — Williams — arrived,
and annoonced that his vessel wan In tbe stream,
snd requested an advance upon freight to pay off and
discharge hts men. This was refused, and the Cap-
tain left, promising to return two days later. He has
not since returned.
An examination of the different bills of lading
showed plainly that the swindling operations were
carried on by the same persons. AH were made out
in the same handwriting, upon blanks printed from
the same type, with the same tell-tale steam-ship in
the upper left hand comer. The aadacity of tbe
men was in some Instances equal to their Ingenuity.
In the case of the veysel named as the one that
brought tbe railroad ties and shingles, she was re-
ports to have arrived at tbe Custom-house, a no-
tice was posted at the Maratlme Exchange, and the
arrival was announced in a morning newspaper.
The sanw game has been extensively carried on in
Boston and PhUadelphia, and in both cities large
Rums of money have been obtained. Strange to say,
no effort has been made to put detectives upon the
crack of tbe swindlers, although tbe clues upon
which thev might have worked are abtudantand
easy to f ollow^^ ^

FROM BBOOKLTX— SXTSPICTONS OF FOUL
PI«AT ENTBBTAIXFD.
' Capt. Petty brought before Jostiee Murray,
St the Tombs Police Court, yesterday, James Falan
snd Patrick Lee, known to the Police as denizens of
(he Water-street district, on suspicion of their com-
plieity in the mysterious disappearance of a young
man named Frank Kagle. The latter left his home
In Brooklyn on Satnrday, a week ago. with the de-
sign of pnrohaslng a pair of boots In New-Tork, tak-
ing with bim some $40 or $50 in money. The first
that was seen of him here by the Police was on Sat-
nrday night, when an ofKeer on post in Water-street
saw bim come oat of a basement den. in company
with Falan and Lee and two other men, all of whom
were api>srently under the influence of liquor. This
was about 11 o'clock, and two hours later, Falan,
Lee, and Nagle went together to a saloon at the cor-
ner of Water-street and James-slip, where Lee
asked permission to leave a parcel, which appeared
to hold the boots which Nagle had purchased. Thii
was tbe last that was seen of Nagle, and at 4
o'clock Lee returned to the saloon and told
the bar-keeper, who had a slight acquaintance
■•rith Sagle, that be iLee) bad seen the owner of
the boots safely home, and then departed, leaving
the narcel with the barkeeper. On Monday the bar-
keeoer ooened the pareel. and finding the boots, went
to Brooklyn to leave tbem at Nagle's home. Here he
learned that Xsgle had not returned since he had left
on :^aturday. Inq;ttirtes were made at all the institu-
tions, bnt without resulting in the discovery of any
elue to Nagle's whereabouts. His father, who was
nearly crazed with fear, went so far as to consult a
clairvoyant, who informed him that his son was
lying at the bottom of a great pool of water, having
met a vio.ent death. Lee and Falan avoided the
vicinity of Water-street for several days, but were
finally arrested on Friday last, when they were taken
»o Police Head-quarters, and detained until yester-
day when they were bronabt to the Tombs Police
Court and remanded to await the restUt of another
March for Na^ by the PoUec.

An article published In the Baltimore Sun of
the 13th last, speaking of tbe action of tbe Railway
General Time Convention, recently held in this city,
in quickening tbe time of through mall service one
hour between New- York and St Lonis, asks the
Bontheni Eailwar Convention, which assembles in
BiehmoDd Wednesday next, to extend the same eon-
sideratioa in arranging the time-tables fox the
Sonth- It ia claimed that the 6:20 P. M. Southern
maU from New-York eloees here too early for New -
York merchaata. and passes through Baltimore at
iuch an hour that the Baltimore morning mails from
that city cannot be in readiness for dispatch by it,
Rnd the restoration of the old 9 o'clock mail from
tnis City is therefore asked for the South. Postmas-
ter James said yesterday lb at it was quite

Washisgton, April 14. — There is no pros-
pect tbM any progreaa will be made in the Tariff
bill daring this or next week. The Honse will
heoeetipied for the next 10 days, at least, in
the consideration of the Post Office and the
Legislatire, Exeeatlve, and Judicial Appropria-
tion hills. A session has been fixed for
tfr-morrow ni«ht for debate on the Tariff
tdD, whieh will enable some of the rural mem-
hers to onborden themselres of the speeches
vhieh they hare prepared on tills subject. It is
not probab:e that any members of the Commit-
ter on Ways and Means, or any of the leading
members of the House, will discuss the
tariff at this night session. The Post
OiBee Appropriation bill is not likely to
be finished before Wednesday, and this will be
followed by the LegislatlTe, Executive, and Ju-
dicial bill, which is the most important and com-
prehensive of all the appropriatioD bills, and
its consideration will occupy at leant a week.
This will leave no time for the consideration of
the Tariff bill daring the coming two weeks, and
&» most that can be done for it will be
to hold one or two night sessions in order to
KlTe members an opportunity to make their
qieeehes, whieh wiB, to that extent at least,
limit the time for general debate. During the
vreaent week the House promises to do a
great deal of legitimate work, in addition to
the two Appropriation bills alluded to,
both of wliich will be oontinuoasly considered
until disposed of. Sessions will be held on
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings for
the purpose of considering Invalid Pepsion bills
on the private calendar, and to enable the Com-
mittee on Invalid Pensions t> report any other
eases that they may have prepared.

Wasbington, April 14. — Glover is s hero,
•lB uncommon one. After numerous attempts
he is now on the highway to success as an in-
vestigator of crooked dealings and corrupt prac-
Uoes. His net has been cast in many places and
hauled up empty many times, but he now has it
qiread in tliat portion of the Treasury pool
known as the Register's office, and some good-
aiied fish are seen struggling in its meshes.
They are not just the kind of fish Glover set
out to catch, bat he dare not let them es-
E^>e, although he is manfully trying to do
«o. When he oast his net into the Kegister's
office, with the assistance of two experts, he
never dreamed that Democrats would be brought
to the surface. Beeently he inadvertently en-
tangled Gen. Banning, whom ills "experts"
discovered to have drawn the same pay twice
while 'serving as Lieutenant-Colonel in the
Army. But Banning extricated himself, and
mshing to the Treasury Department settled
the old account by reimbnning the Treas-
my, and Glover promised to say nothing
atwut the matter. The fact, however, leaked
out, and now Banniitg does not entertain the
same sympathetic feelings toward Glover, as an
Investigator, that he did before he was
"scooped" up. Since Banning was caught.
Glover has been proceeding with great care, but
notwithstanding his caution some others of his
Democratic brethren are likely to tie brought
to the surface. In the Begiater's office are kept
the papers and vooehers of all closed accounts
with the United States. Glover, with
two experts, has been looking over these
aeeounts, and is now strugc^ing to hide
the results of his examinations. When the
House committee of whieh Mr. Morrison was
Chairman went to Lionisiana in the Fall of
1876, to Investigate the conduct of the Presi-
dential election, they took with them as Ser-
geants-at-A^ms Simpson K. Donovin, late As-
sistant Door-keeper, and John K. Polk, late
Door-keeper, the latter acting as Oonovin'a as-
sistant, pie expenditures .of that committee,
according to the records of the Begiater's office,
were $32,000, and vouchers for that sum
were submitted by Messrs. Donovin and Polk.
These, expenditures were for traveling,
hotel, and other necessary expenses. The
vtraehera were indorsed by Mr. Morrison, as
Chairman of the committee, and the money
was paid from the contingent fund of Jbe
Bouse by Hm Disbursing CleHc. It now leaks
out that Glover's experts claim that a large
number of these voneheis are fraudulent, hav-
ing been duplicated for the same expenses, and
paid twice, and one of the experts is of opinion
that Donovin and Polk profited by the frauds.
Olorer and his experts are now going over the
papers in the hope tliat their suspioions may
prove to lie not well founded. Had the parties
thus implicated been Bepublieans, Glover would
have reported the facts first and scrutinized
afterward. Ko one suspects tliat Mr. Morrison
would knowingly approve any bill that was not
correct, and it may be that Glover's experts
will prove themselves as stupid in this as in
former cases, and that the aecoonts of Messrs.
Ponovan and Polk maybe foa^ to be comet.

Washixotojt, April 14. — ^Beverly Doug-
las, of VlTginla, has oubBabed a card in his
home paper, explaining a lecent scene in the
HooM, in whieh he wu the lUr aetor, and de-
nying that he was intoxicated upon that in-
teresting occasion. Mr. DoBglas admiuthathe
violated the rules of the House, but explains
that he was impelled to this vtolation by dls-
eoortesy shown him when he proposed to ask a
simple questiOQ. Mr. Douglas says: "Myob-
j«et was simply to vindicate some of m7 con-
ititnenti from the iweepiny eharga of an a^
tempt, on tho part of tha South,
to defraud the GovamnMnt by paying
Biail contractors for servieee befare the war,
whieb Dad been adjasted and settled by the
Cunfederale Goremmant, Beltevins that I
wu not heard from ay seat, I moved a few
steps down the aisle to get nearer, and I rested
my hands on the desks. It was not because I
was drunk and unable to stand, but because the
paiftien was easier and protected sie tp>m the
teftte^ the crowd always passing up and down.
Jjkj cffori to oe heard was rudely repulsed, and
tbe Speaker cAmroenccd to rap at me most
{BfiMSly, and ordered m« to t*k* my seat,
wklsb i refased to do. (improperly I admit,)
■Ml tks 3eT«flaai-at-Ams was sent to enforce
^riK. W)>«*»«enHtomi.minoiingli* iar
tended to lay hands on me, I shoved him off.
I was very angry and did wrong, but that I was
instigated by an undue allowance of drink is
not true."
Mr. Douglas thinks the newspaper corre-
spondents were unnecessarily severe, and he
believes some of them are animated by a special
dislike for him. The manner in which Mr.
Douglas proposes to deal with the correspond-
ents in future is worthy of commendation, and
his resolution might be followed by some of his
Democratic colleagues with profit to their con-
stituents and credit to themselves. Mr. Doug-
las has not exactly given a pledge to drink no
more, but ha has resolved to " abstain entirely
from intoxication," which is in the line of re-
form. Mr. Douglas says in his card
" That their (the correspondents) future state-
ments may be clearly unjustifiable or de-
liberately maUcions and false, I have deter-
mined during the remainder of my term of
service to abstain entirely from intoxication."
Mr. Douglas is a candidate for re-election, and
finds several active competitors in his district
since he obtained so much prominence throueh
his attempt to vindica e his constituents by asls-
ing a simple question, and resting his bands on
the desks while in the sot of vindication.
THE SBWABD JN VESJIGA TION.
WORK OP THE COMMITTEE — A GREAT VOLUME
•OF TESTIMONY — NOTHING TET DISCLOSED
AFFECTING HIS OPFICIAL CONI UCT — CON-
SULAR CLERK BRADFORD.
Epeeial DUpatch tothdyiv). York Ttnua.
Washington, April 14.— The committee
investigating the charges against Minister
Seward have taken a large mass of testimony,
and are continuing the investigation with con-
siderable industry. It is stated by a gentleman
who has seen all the testimony, and who has no
reason to be prejudiced in respect to either
side, that there has been nothing disclosed
thus far refiecting upon the official con-
duct of Minister Seward, except his
persistent support of tne consular clerk,
Bradford. Mr. Seward appears to have
stood by him at all times, under all circum-
stances, and to have had the utmost faith in his
good character. At the same time, the evidence
against Bradford is very strong, unless it is
weakened by testimony in his defense here-
after. It is stated that Bradford has not been
removed, because a consular clerk of his rank
can only be removed by the President, upon
charges presented and proved. The witness,
Myers, who was Consul-General at Shanghai,
does not figure very creditably before the com-
mittee, being contradictory and unintelligible
in his statements, though seemingly sincere. It
is to be hoped, for Minister Seward's sake, that
the entire case will be thoroughly sifted, so
that, if he is blameless, as his friends Srmly be-
lieve, the charges may be completely set aside
and his official character vindicated.

Special DUpattA lo Iht {rem- Tork Tlma.
Washington, April 14. — Gen. Butler's
bUl to provide a convenient currency wUl come
up in the House to-morrow as the unfinished
business of the moiming hour. The yeas and
nays were ordered on Monday last, on Butler's
motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill,
and the House will proceed at once to vote on
that motion. The bill provides for an unlimited
issue of 25 and 50 cent notes, and requires the
Secretary of the Treasury to pay out one-sixth
of all payments made in redeeming national
bank notes in legal tenders of the denomina-
tions of $1 , $2, $3, and $5, in equal proportions,
and all payments for the cnrrent expenses of
the Government in like proportion, until the
amount of such notes in circulation shall be equal
to one^sixth of all the legal tenders and national
bank notes shown by the books of the Treasury
Department to huve been issued. Two months
ago this proposition, or any other to provide
fortheissueof paper, might have received atwo-
thirds majority, but it is not certain that Butler
will be able to obtain a majority for his bill to-
morrow.
CIRCUIT COUBT JUSISDICTION.
MB. BLISS' BILL TO HAKE INJONOTIONS IS-
SUED IN ONE UNITED STATES CIRCUIT
OPERATIVB IN ALL OTHERS.
Special DiapatA to Ou Nev- Tork Tlmn.
Washington, April 14.— -An important
bin, introduced in the House of Bepresentatives
in January, has been reported to the Honse, and
finds many advocates. It was introdnced by
Hon. -A M. Bliss, of Brooklyn, and is entitled
^An act in relation to the juHsdietion of the
Circuit Courts of the United States." It pro-
vides tliat an injunction issued by a Circuit
Court of the United States in any circuit shall
be binding and operative in any other ctrcnit in
the United States.. The protection now offered
by the Copyright and Patent laws in the Fed-
eral courts is Qlosory, for it often takes more
money to follow the infringer as he dodges an
injunction from one judicial circuit of the Union
into another than the copyright or patent is
worth. The law is intended to meet this very
serious impediment to the admioistrstion of
justice, wiiieh works infinite injnry to owners
of dramatic copyrights. Quoting the language
of ex-Judge Ditfenhoefer, of New-Tork, in a
printed brief in favor of the enactment of this
law, it might properiv be entitled " An act- to
nationalizo the powers of tba national courts."

St. Petersburg, April 14. — ^The Agenee

that Germany's efforts at mediation have been
well recei red in London has produced a favor-
able impression In St. Petersburg, where the
desire for an understanding is real. Potirparlen
continue actively at Berlin.
BoMZ, April 14. — ^The Courrier d'ltaJie't Ber-
lin special says it is rumored that Prince
Bismarck believes a congress possible pro-
vided the powers consent to the retroces-
sion of Bessarabia, the extension of Russia in
Asia as far aa Erzeroum, and pecuniary in-
demnity to RuHsia. If this basis is ex-
cepted Germauy would undertake to
onergeticaUjr use her Influence lo persuadf
Russia to grant the congress full power to
modify the other territorial changes proposed
by the treaty of San Ste 'ano.
London, April 15.— The Tiniea' St Peters-
burg correspondent, telegraphing on Sunday,
does not give such a hopeful report of the
state of feeling in - Russia. He says
the efforts of Germany may perhaps
lead to a preliminary conference, as the British
Govemibent is now bi^lieved to be more favor-
able to such a proposal. The warlike excite-
ment is specially intense in Moscow.
The Vienna correspondent of the Times says,
according to trustworthy private informa-
tion, the German Government fully im-
derstands the difficulty of its media-
tory task. It thinks the chances of
success pretty evenlv balanced, but having once
undertaken the task it reems to have embraced
it to its full extent. The correspondent thinks
the principal difficulty is to make some arrange-
ment to obviate the danger of a collision at
Constantinople.
The Berlin correspondent of. the Vienna
Monlaot Post, who is usually well informed,
says Prince Bismarck, as mediHti«r, will
be unsuccessful if England persist^ in
her present attitude. It is said that
Russia is looking out for a loan in America.
It is understood that negotiations have ai&o been
opened in Germany and Holland.
"The Post's Berlin special says it is reported
that the new loan will amoant to 50,000,000
rubles independently of the 50,000.000 in
Treasury bonds to be issued immediately.

London, April 14. — A Reuter dispatch,
dated Constantinople. Fridav, announces that
the Porte is removing valuables, arms,
and munitions thence to Scutari, and is
considering the question ot transferring
the Government to Scutari, so as to avoid being
forced into an alliance by one of the l)ellig-
erents occupying Constantinople in the event of
war.
Another Reuter telegram dated Constantino-
ple, Saturday, says : " The Turkish com-
manders have been ordered to resist any at-
tempt to occupy Constantinople. Achmet Pasba
has been appointed commander of the fleet in
f)lace of Hobart Pasha, who will take a fur-
ougb. The Russians from Erzeroum are march-
ing to Batoum. where, it is believed, they will
embark for Bessarabia.
The Telegraph's Vienna correspondent says
that the Turkish work on the Turkish defenses
is stopped, in consequence of a Russian remon-
strance.

Richmond. April 14. — ^An extraordlnTy re-
vival ot relivioQ .pri-vdiis here among tbe colored
people. Prasei^meet.ng'S are held nightly at all
the cbnrches. At the three largest chnrches
the number of "mourners'* is from 400 to
500 on c-teh occasion. Rev. John Jssner, whose
sermon, "Do the Earth Move?" attracted such
attention, is among tbe most snccessfal ot
the Pastors. The escltement runs very high. At
the Xavy Hill bchool, w! ere abont 500 children are
tiitiRlit, there has been m.icti "conTera '' on tho part
of the pnpils tbat the resular lessons conid not be
prcoeeded with. The children kept their heads
bowed down ajion their dexks and would not join in
tlTe singing or pursue- their studies. The teanbers
notified the principal, who, in turn, inionoed the City
Superintendent of Schools. All expo&tulation being
in vain, the Superintendent got Bov. J. H. Holmes',
Pastor of the r'irst ^Vfrican Church, to address tbe
refractory ones, telling them that the best evidence
of tme relisions conviction was the cheerfnl and
diligent discharge of temuoral dutieK, Thereupon
they returned to their xtndies. According to the
cnstom of the more icnorant ot the negroes on near-
ly every day, but pTrricularly on th** ^^ahbath, dozens
ot stalwart men may be seen prostrate in the woods
on the^ hillsides of the snhurbs, prayin;? for in*uce.
Work in several of the tobacco farrtories has been
5erlou>ly imfteded by the prevaiHo;^ excitement.
UsttV incidents, showing hovr widespread and in-
tense is this relig ous movement, might be given.
There are probably 2,500 men; women, and children
"seekine the Lord." "Theansions" win be readily
discerned b.v their melanchol.v visace ani' avoidance
ot^ conversation. It is witlj dilSciilty a woid can be
cot out of them. After they have pa&sed throunh
the period of anxiety and have •• found the Lord."
they throw off tbe gloom and are cheerful and hanpy,
and join with great fervor in the hymns of praise.
The present revival is withont paraJlel in Rjehmcnd.
There was no preparation for it, and many of the
Pastors say they were astonivhed when they found It
had asxnmed such proportions. To-day Rev. John
Jaiper baptized a great number at the pool at his
cjjurch. Rev. Scott Gnrthmey baptized many more
in the pond near Oahwood Cemetery. Tbe conzreea-
ti'ins were immense. There are nine co'ored chnrches
here, and all but two of them are ot the Baptist de-
nomination.

CmcAoo, April 14 — Lient.-Gen. Sheridan,
obedieii. to the order of the Pitsiaent, has directed
Brig. -Gen. John Pope, commanding the Depai;tment
ot the Missouri, to eanse the tJte Indians to be re-
moved from the State of Colorado to the Territory
of New Mexico, and to use what troops may be ne-
cessary to effect the transfer. ■ The Government
authorities have determined upon this disposition
of the tribe as the wisest step that can be taken
nnder tbe circnmstances. The question of removal
has been under consideration for several nronths
past. The Ct* tribe numbers 22,000 men. women,
and children, divided into a dozen or 15 bands.
Two or three small bands have wandered ont of
Colorado into the adjacent Territories, but they can
be brought to the general rendtzvoos with little diffl-
culty. It is regarded in militarydto'es as extremely
donbtful If tbe tribe will sabmlt to a removal with,
out more or lesn resistance. It is even feared that
there will be open rebellion, in which event there
would be need ot a good-sized Army. The fears of
leeistsDce are strensthcned by tbe fact that Old
Onrav, the head chief^is known to have lieen incit-
ing the Navajos to rebellion aeainst the miners of
tbe San Juan reslon, and the tribes may form on al.
liance to resist the execution of the onierf or removal.

San Antonio, Texas, April 14.— San An-
tonio was' to-day again excited over a lion
and bull fight After tbe fight of last week, in
which the celebrated Texas bnli, " Old Tige,"
whipped an African lioness, the lovers ol this
fierce sport and others governed by cariosity,
have had a desire to witness another combat be-
tween the Texas King ball and the well-known
African lion •' Old George," who is reported to
be the most feroeioas animal of his kind
in the United States. Before '10 A. M. the
crowd began to assemble at the arena, which is
just three mi^es from the city, and at 12 M. a
large throng had gathered. The amusement of
tbe day was begun by a fight between two Mexi-
can bulls, to give a relish for the richer feast of
horrors to come, but the bulls were too tame to
fight— rather civilized bulls— and after mat-
vain efforts on the part of the trained bull
fighters to goad tltem to exasperation, this first
part of the programme terminated.
Shortly after 3 P. M. about 2,000 people had
assembled for the grand event of theday. "Old
George," the lion, was prowling about and
growling within the circle of the large iron
cage, 60 feet in diameter, which bad been erected
for the combat at great expemw. The " sporting"
fraternity were freely offering to take ventures
on the result at three and even five to one
on the bull, and found not a few takers. The
bull having been lassoed in an adjoining field,
was brought with great difficulty to the ground
and forced into the cage. Tbe lion, quietly
eating a piece of raw beef, was separated from
"Old Tige" by a canvas curtain st etched
across tbe cage. As soon as the ropes were taken
from the bull's boms this canvas partition was
drawn aside. The attack was at once begun
by " Tige," who rushed madly upon the lion
and tossed him 10 feet into the air. The mon-
arch of the forest fell heavily to the gronnd,
but immediately sprang up and made a fearful
spring at the bull The Texan received him on
his horns and again gored him in the side and
threw him savagely against the iron bars,
bleeding and l-adly braised, and then virtually
put an end to the combat, for the ferocious
"Old George " had the fight effectually knocked
out of him, and refused to come to time, al-
though he was repeatedly challenged by the
Texan. Cheer after cheer arose from the ex-
cited crowd in the great ampitheatre, every one
of whom had mounted the seats when the bull
proved pimself the victor.
Tbe canvas was then drawn between tbe
combatants, and the lioness tliat encountered
this same bill last week was turned in with
her mate. The eurtidn was again drawn aside,
and the pair were turned against the bull.
"Old Tige "looked for a moment at his old
antagonist, and then rushed savagely upon her.
tossing her into the air and breaking two of her
ribs. He then turned upon " Old George, the
Man-eater," and gave him another toss into the
air, badly goring him. The lions then crouched
in a comer of the cage, completely cowed, and
"Old Tige "deliberately approached and smell ed
them, but did not renew the attack. He stood
pawing the dirt in token of his victory.
' This bull is terribly savage and daugerous.
He is 10 years old, and has killed five otberbuUs
in single but extremely fierce combats. He is
of mixed Texas and buffalo blood, and is larger
than the average Texas bull When he was
being brought into the fighting pen to-day
he rushed upon a crowd and badly
fored a man who was assisting in
aiding him with lassoes. Tbe lions are
from Africa, and of very large size, but are old.
They are the pair that killed their keeper about
three years ago, in Tennessee. "Old George"
has but one eye, and this fact was much
against him in the fight. The bull,
before entering on this combat, was upon
three legs, having been badly woonded
by the lioness last week, and not having
yet recovered. But when he charged upon his
antagonists he seemed to forget all about his
wounded limb.
The next fight will be between this champion
bull and three noted Mexican buU-fighlers.
The sympathy is all with the bull, and the ex-
pectation .is that it will go hard with the
•■greasers." After that combat the community
here will enjoy a lion and tiger fight. "T^ans
are quite high-flavored in their sports, and care
little how many bulls, lions, and Mexicans are
whipped.
The fight that took place in this amphithe-
atre on Saturday, April 6, between " Old
Tiee" and the lioness, was witnessed by about
1,000 persons. On that occasion the bull was
in the pen. and the cage of the lioness was
hacked up to it, and the communicating doors
tlirown open. The lioness rushed out be-
hind the bull, and with a spring threw
herself on his bannehes. " Old Tige " was
tongh, and tbe daws of the savage lioness
did not easily penetrate his hide. Turning
quickly about, tbe bull bounded after the
lioness, caught her upon bis horns and tossed
her high in the air. She prepared to spring a
second time, but the bull was too quick tor her,
and a second time he tossed her. This time the
lioness was hurt as she fell, and she retreated
to tbe bars of the cage. The bull pressed her,
when she rose upon her hind legs, unable to meet
the attack by an advance. Tbe bull drove at her,
forced her down, and pinned her to the ground
with his horns, and gored her uatll he was
called off. The lioness was badly whipped, but
not seriously injured. Thbflght lasted 12 min-
utes. It was believed that in starving tbe
lioness, to make her savage, the starving was
overdone, and her strength and ferocity re-
duced. ^^^^^

London. Thar»d*y, April 4, 1878.
"WTien England thfe other diy astonished
the world by once more electing: to stand alone
in the defense of treaty risfats and her o»vn in-
terests even at the risk of Jnunediate war. An.«-
tria at once discovered that the Treaty o{ San
Stefano was a monstrous business which she
eonld not possibly sanction. Tbe Czar !«nt
Gen. Ignatieff to Vienna to arrange terms with
Austria, and the Grand Duke made his dispo-
sitions for meeting England under the
shadow of Constantinople. Lord Beacons-
field found the time ripe for a bold
stroke. It was a circular to the powers, to ar-
rive at Vienna in the midst of IgnatiefFs opera-
tions, and to be followed by cal.ing ont the re-
serve forces of the Kingdom. Earl Derby did
not agree with the necessity for this latter move.
So the circular went forth signed by his succes-
sor. Lord Salisbury : and England cried
" check r The value of this rpsolute action is
shown in the fact that Bussia was on the point
of demanding from Turkey the fortifications on
both sides of the Bosphorus and the evacuation
of Gallipoli and Boulair. There is reason to
believe that this last stroke on the part of the
Grand Duke has been countermanded ; though
pre sure is being used in thu strongest way to
force Turkey into an alliance with the con-
queror. The general feeling of Europe seems
to be at one with the English public, in a
sense of relief at the fact that at last
Europe knows to what England objects in the
Russian terms. It is thought to-day, in Paris
and Vienna, that the Muscovites will give way
and accept the English conditictns necessary to
the holding of the congress. It is most certain
that Great Britain lUll not move from her pres-
ent attitude. The latest dispatch to Count An-
drassy proclaims the strong desire of the Eng"
lisb Cabinet for peace, and at the same tim&, -
should the action of Russia necessitate war. *
detertnination to prosecute it " until all re-
sistance is crushed." There is a cool deter-
mination abont the English circulars and dis-
patches which coDies late in the day. but not
too late ; and in spite of the " Perish India '
school of modem politicians, the nation con.
templates the result, not with a light
heart, but with the dogged ODStinacy character-
jstie of the race. The idea that they have been
fooled, sat upon, and otherwise ill-treated ; that
their desire for peace has been regarded as
selfish and cowardly, and the boastful outbursts
of Kussian ambition in regard to India — ^this
and that have at last goaded the people into a
passion of indignation that makes recruiting
for the Army here as snccessfnl as a conscrip-
tion in Bussia. It is not true that there is a
rampant war party in England, actuated
by a thirst for blood or glory, but
there is a vast majority of the
intellectual and commercial classes who would
make the greatest sacrifices men can make to
prevent the mere possibility of Russia standing
in England's way, or even throwing her shadow
across her ocean-path to the East. This is the
so-called war party. Their ranks have heen
strengthened by the duplicity and arrogance of
Russia, until the nation is now united in a de-
termination to make no farther concessions and
to insist npon a peace that shall settle for half a
century at least questions which Bussia would
propose to leave full of the sprouting seeds of
future wars. The Treaty of San Stefano would
substitute Russian, for Turkish rule in the
Ottoman Empire, and leave ConstautiDople and
the water-ways so necessary to English life at
the mercy of the Czar : while that monarch's
annexations in Asia would enable him. as was
so well shown in a recent editorial in The New-
YoKK Times, to extend his empire to the very
borders of India, and eventually to serioual;
disturb the British rule in those vast and
wealthy dominions. Ihdeed, a famous Russian
writer has been discussing the manner of the
Muscovite treatment of India when Russv- has
successfully helped the natives to throw oil' tbe
British rule, taking it for granted that Eng-
land's complaisance In 'the nutter of Turkey
meant the abdication of her imperial do-
minion in the far East. St. Petprsbarg has
reckoned without her host. It was the bad
government of the Turk that kept England
aloof when Russia declared she warred for the
Christian subjects of the Porte and not for ter-
ritorial aggrandizement ; but she will not leave
it to Russia to decide where British interests
begin or end ; and should the despotic arro-
gance of Russia force England to fight, St. P et-
ersbnrg will once more learn with what te na-
city a free people who make peace and war
through the elected representatives of the na-
tion can defend their honor and their empire.
Yesterday there was a peace demonstmtion
at the Westminster Palace Hotel. It resolved
itself into a deputation to the Opposition lead- ,
ers from 120 Liberal associations, tbrou^out
the provinces. Under the captaincy of M.r.
Chamberlain, member of Parliament for Bir-
miugbam, they invited the leaders of her Maj- ^
esty's Oppositjoa in the Lords and Commons to
receive them, which brought to the hotel Lord
Granville, Lord Hartington. and lUr. John
Bright. Before these gentlemen arrived, Mr.
Chunberlain spoke of tt^ objects of tbe meet-
ing, which, he said, were fairly set forth in the
circular which called it. This document said :
" It iroujd be s national crime, no less than a na*
tional misfortune, if thiseonntrT' should be drafifred
into war. I'he resignation of Lord Derby not only
proves that this danger is immineat. bnt it leaves
the direction of the Government entirely in tbe
bands ■■ f the advocates of war. It it therefore of
the ntroost importance that the fnll strength of
the Liberal Party shonld be nsed at once in
the cause of pence and of natiau.-il honor. Lord
HartiD^on. our leader in the Honse of Commons
should be encouraged and supported in his efforts in
this sreat cause by some positive atsai-sn(« of the
snnpathv and confidence of his fnen •%. The offirets
of the Federation havi^. therefore, in conjunction
■wi'h the officers of the Kationa! Reform Union, de-
cided to invite tbe Liberal RKSociatious, throu;;hout
the country to appoint representativef to a depnt.!*
tion to wait upon 'uis lordship, to assure him of the^
passionate eaniestcess with which we desire to save
England from the shame and misery ot war. '
Mr. Grlmwade, a d'alegate from Ipswich, then
moved, and aMr. Shaen seconded, and the meet-
ing carried the following resolution :
"Tbat Ibis meetine 1> of opinion tbat no adequate
reason exisii to prevent t'ois country from jomir.g
In the proDosed European conference ; that this met-t-
iuK eamestlT trusts toat the ±lonse of Commons wil?
express its disapproval of the advice given to her
Majesty by her Ministers to call out tbe reserve
xoices. as a step calculated to precinitate this coon.
try into a useless and crimina! war."
• At this juncture the leaders of the Opposi-
tion arrived, and Mr. Bright introduced the
deputation, thus giving to himself and his col-
leagues an opportunity of addressing the coun-
try before the question at issue came on for de-
bMe in Pariiament. It has beenmorethsnonce
pointed out in both houses that this kind of
E' 'ic talking outside St Stephen's upon sub-
1 actually under tbe consuleration of Par-
ent is hardly dijzriified. though possibly
Earl Granville and Lord Hartington would say
tbat a crisis such as that which the country is
passing through justifies departures from rules
of etiquette. The demonstration itself properly
describedwouldcomewithinthemeaniDgof what
Lord Beaconsfield stigmatized as " mechanical
agitation ■' For the present it is interesting ait
indicating an intention of the Opposition to
register their disagreemest with the Cabinet in
regard to the active and serions preparations for
war which find sucji marked significance in the
calling out of tlie reserves. Ur„ Bright, while
introducing the deputation, spoke chiefly of the
desirability of '* tbe greai Ubosl Partv " being
united, withoutwhieli, h« (aid. they could not do
"great tbings." Earl Oaorille deHreredaloiu;

' eondBdonexprened his belief thai there iras
no real joatiScation for England drawing the
•word " at present" He did not say when or ac
vbat juncture of affairs this might properly
take place ; but he told the deputation in. gene-
ral terms that it wag their duQr to do all they
^ oeuld to influence the conduct of the Qolrem-
~ - ment and eoliKbten pnhlio opinion. Lord
HartiDtiton did not for a moment holdlangoam
tn sympathy with the circular justquotadithoagti
II* ferrentiy hoped England wonldnotgo to war.
His lordship went on to say that he wa&BOt -
without hope, now that the views of the two
GoTernmenta are fuUy and clearly Q:^lainjed,
that it may be found possible to come to
somd arrangement He declined to tell the dep-
utation what course the opposition meant to
take. "In the first place," he said, "I don't
think it rieht that any such statement should
be mede anywbere but In Parliament;" and yet
It is notorious that from the Tery commence-
ment of the present troubles— It is notorious
that an active section of the opposition
hare harassed the (ioTomment by out-
side meetings which would have con-
tinued until now had not the nnorgm&ized
hut overwhelming maiorlcy of the country
which supports the Cabinet put them down by
rival moetin;^ of sonerior force and character.
Lord Hartington, however, it must be said, did
not lend his voice or authority to the meetings
■which months ago no doubt encouraged Kussla
In her march of conqnest The meeting of yes-
terday may, however, be reearded as the pre-
liminary skirmish to another fleld day In. Par-
liament on the Eastern question.
For n moment the Continent has ceased to
osk what Bismarck means, in wondering, not
to say admiring, contemplation of his English
rival Beaconstleid. whose recent policy has re-
stored the national prestige. The leading
French journals are lauding the courage and
grandeur of the new attitude of Great Britain ;
while the Austrian papers are urging their
Government to emulate the British example.
Meanwhile, the Ttirks are In a painful dilemma,
and Beaconsfleld seems to Ignore them. There-
are shrewd observers who think he is forcing
the Ottomites to declare themselves definitely
one way or tho other — for England or against,
her. In the latter case he would at once aieze
an island in the .lEgean Sea and help to drive
the Turks into Asia. But it is difficult to find
reasons for agreeing with these men iu their
views that Beaconstield wishes this. His sym-
pathies have been too plaizxiy exhibited ; though
nobody could blame the unfortunate Turk if he
should ally himself with his task-master. I met
a well-informed member of Parliament last
ui;;ht who said the Government would like to
appeal to the country on the question of peace
or war. It is believed on the Conservative side of
the Honse that a dissolution justnow would give
Lord BeaconsSeld the most powerful majority
in the history of parties. Several elections for
vacancies aruing from recent deaths have given
notable results iu favor of the present govern-
ment ; though the resignation of Lord Derby
will seriously injure the Cabinet in the estima-
tion of the great constituencies in the North.
Rochefort's journal is the one Paris paper that
prophesies evil for England in an encounter
wth Russia, which it believes would end as dis-
flstrously for this country as the Franco-Ger-
man war did for France; and to-day, in the
Daihj Telesraph, a naval man sends an
clarm:ng note of warniif^ to the Ad-
sniralty in regard to ' the tori>edo-hoats
which Russia is building with a view
to operations on the fleet With these small
shadows comes the neWs that IgnatietTs mission
to Austria is not so great a failure as was at first
supposed. Count Andrassy, it is said, made
certain representations as to how her interests
might be preserved, and IgnatlefT will return to
Vienna with fresh proposals. St Petersburg
and Ignatieff still cling to the hope of isolating
England. The Czar will make sacrifices to Aus-
tria for this purpose. If Count Andrassy does
not see a better proepeet for his country in an
alliance with England he mav accept the
Ru.<<sian bribe. And then ? Htissia would
resist ** Enirlish conditions" to the last She
wjuld occupy Constantinople. Her troops
would swarm over the hills of the Bosphorus
snd En!;land would be pledged to a long and
bitter war. In this eventuality Lord Beacons-
field might find that he had played with the
Turks too long. An immediate alliance, in the
present condition of affairs, with the English
■could enable them to astonish the Russians In
the neighborhood of Constantinople ; but every
day lessens their power. In spite of the armis-
tice, notwithstanding the Treaty of San Ste-
fano. the Russians are practically in Constanti-
nople. The Grand Duke's Head-quar-
ters are really at Pera, and they con-
tinue to creep onward from stronghold
to stronghold. "this continual movement
onward illustrates the truth of the policy of
Hus.^a as explained to Labouchere by a German
diplomarist whom the English Attach^ met at
('oDstantinople. ** If," he s&id, "a Russian has
a field next to yours, you suddenly find'that he
has pushed forward the dividing landmark be-
tween your property and bis by a dozen yards.
Ynu ask what this means. He Is profuse in his
apologies. Says that it is a mistake, and that
he will at once vrithdraw. He does so, but in
putting back the landmark he manages to retain
half a yard of your field. You regard this as a
trifle, and hardly worth discussion. But
he plajs this game so often that, in the end,
you are surprised to find him in possession
of your entire field." Snouli^the present rup-
ture between England and Russia end in blows,
the British .-Vdmirals and Generals will find that
during the diplomatic discussion of the neutral
zone and other military arrangements between
the Sultan and the Grand Duke, the Russian
troops have " played that game so often" that
they will be " in possession of your entire field,"
v^hleh. in this ea.se, means Constantinople. And
then? The fleet could knock the Sultan's city
nbout their ears. Bnt would a bombardment of
i'on.stantinople be within the English views of
civilization t That is a difficult question, sup-
- posing it comes to be asked in presence of a
Kusso-Turkish alliance and *' isolated England."
'War in that case would not be made in kid
cloves.
In the meantime the Qneen's reserves are
potiring in to the standard. Recruiting goes on
apace. Preparations for war go on with vigor.
In the equipment of the expeditionary corps
nothing that art and science can devise for the
hostile power of the msm and their personal
comforts is overlooked. Some of the crack regi-
ments are on the roll to take the field among
the first troops ordered to be in readiness for
active service. The whole country is alive with
sij^s of the expected combat Fleets of trans-
ports are ready to take in ' their armed passen-
gaa. All kinds of oraft are being made ready
as convoys. Th»» world has never seen nor
streamed of such a naval power as England will
shortly have afloat. Her accumtilation of stores
^3 on a fabulous scale. New vessels, corvettes,
rams, torpedo-ships, and iron-clads areheinglaid
'down at all the dock-yards. Yesterday the
first of six steel corvettes, Comns, was launched
at Elder & Co.'s yard, Glasgow, in the presence
of a vast concourse of spectators. In these cor-
vettes the coal bunkers are at the sides, to give
resistance to shot, and the stem below the bow
forms a treraendotis ram. The bone-power Is
H.ilOO, speed 13 knots, length 225 feet, with
shell-proof engine-room and magazine. Some
interesting experiments were made yesterday
at Chatham ENjck-yard to test CoL Posberry's
Invention for preventing torpedo-boats from
sinking when penetrated with rifle balls.
The German, French, and Italian at-
tach^ were present Several volleys were
fired into a part of tho vessel provided
by Fosberry's elastic coating, a sort of india-
rubber mail. The holes made by the bullets
closed immediately after the bullets bad passed
through, thus preventing the passage of water.
Put to a similar test the tmproteoted. part of tho
vessel filled almost immediately. One of the
newest thing! in the way of engineering Is the
new railway appliances for fortresses andin-
trenchments, 20 miles of which, with bridges
complete, have been completed. There is also
a talk of a wonderful new gun offered to the
-Government bv an American; and something
'very remarkable la the way of a new vessel
for bombarding purposes has just been
c .mmenced at Chatham Dock-yard. During
the week there Ihave been some re-
ronrkable experiments of " shell pene-
tration" at Shoeburyness, in which there was a
competition between five English and four for-
-lign firms, including Woolwich, Whltworth

Tom Browne, in a,\ private conversation that
foRind Its way into point, was reported to.hsve
balieved that three Bepubliean Congressmen
eoold be retnmed atithe next general eleeticni.
The Democracy metiln State Convention on the
20th of Febmary. It was the largest, most
spirited, and best in its peraotmel of any.'slmiUur
body convened here for many years.
They were encouraged with the almost
certainty of victory in October. Voorheea
had just raised the Democratie masses to'the
highest piteh by his communistic loflKtion
speech in the Senate. During the latten part
of the 'Winter a few leading BepubUeans
made a determined effort to put their party
upon the conservative side of the financial ques-
tion, hut there was no following. HadJ the at-
tempt been presented in Congress, the party
would have been torn into factions, ) and It
seemed next to Impossible to divide the parties
upon that question. All classes of people were
for the Silver bill. Argument was useless ; ex-
planations were needless. Without knowing
why or wherefore, and caring less, the demand
for the passage of the Silver bill was universal,
and the grave and only real question of • the
future was whether that would still the tem-
pest Happily, it has. The great mass df the
people seem satisfied and contented with the
ttaius quo. Business men are convinced that
no further financial legislation will be seriously
attempted, and are treading upon solid ground
once more in their calculations. Mr. "NPoorhees
came home on the eve of the late township
elections, and made a most earnest effort in be-
half of the Democratic ticket; bnt the next day
Terre Haute pronounced against the Democ-
racy, and Daniel, the lion-hearted, as he was
fonoiy termed by the mast-fed Democrats of
Indiana, departed for the Kational Capital
spiritless and broken.
THE TOWNSHIP ELECTIONS.
That this is a real change is evidenced by the
elections of one week ago. Immediately follow-
ing the passage of the Silver bill, and noting
the quieting effect such action had upon the
public mind, the Republicans in all quarters of
the State took courage. Although the elections
were but for township officers, the nominating
conventions were the largest assembled during
the last six years. The reports of the primaries
were all one way, and when the ballots were
counted, it was found that in nearly all places
the Biepuhlicans had held their own, while the
Democrats had fallen badly behind, the unex-
pected strength developed by. the Nationals
being drawn from the Democracy. Twoyearsago
the great bulk of the Greenback vote was Repub-
lican, It seems now that the sloughing hasceased
from the Republican ranks, and the accession
of strength to the Nationals is, and must be.
from the Democracy. In this state of the case
the Republicans can view the National canvass
with reasonable philosophy, and. Indeed, even
encourage its valiant warriors to '• lay on."
We are encouraged. The false light of the
financial wreckers seduced Mr. Hendricks from
his comfortable position on the fence, and be-
lieving that a combination of the South and West
would be strong enotigfa to warrant the aban-
donment of the Eastern Democracy, he went
the full length In his speech before the State
Convention. In a letter written some time be-
fore be made this speech, this coalition was
foreshadowed, and it was stated that the leader-
ship could be taken by Mr. Hendricks, but If re-
fused by him It would be offered to Gen.
Ewing, of Ohio, who, at that time, seemed to be
coming to the fore in the House of Represen-
tativea. But Mi. Hendricks caught at tbe bait,
read the riot act to the Eastern Deraoeraoy, and
puthimself in thevan of the Falstsfflan battalion,
with the Clnciiuiati Enquirer as chief trompet-
er. No matter what the i>enny whistles may
say, Mr. Hendricks has written "finis" to his
Presidential race. The brains of the Demo-
cratio Party are f umisned from New-York, and
Mr. Belmont with cruel and polished steel,
Sive the favorite son his eovp de gract. The
emocracy are without hope. Their early con-
vention has proved a mistake. The " taking "
planks of their platform are utterly without
meaning now. 'They are lumbering along with
an antiquated old stage-coach, the driver one of
no experience, and the sole passenger Dan
Voorhees, now the veritable Knight of the
Rueful Countenance. The " leaders" are taking
no stock in the csmpaien, while the party or-
gans with brains and influence are either stilled
or do not restrain impatient disgust The Na-
tionals are alive and quitevigorous. They polled
2,500 votes in this city last week; they carried
the City of Terre Haute, and In many townships
in the southern and western counties made their
mark decisively. From present appearances
they will poll a pretty fair vote in the State,
but not so large In October as would seempos-
slble judging from their April strength. This,
of course, will depend entirely upon the times.
If business is reasonably good this Summer,
if crops fulfill in Autumn the promise of the
Spring, and if idle industry shall be measurably
employed, in the very nattiro of the case the
Nationals must fail to increase. They live and
thrive only ou the distresses of the body politic.
And as I have already said, tho philosophy of
the future makes it sure that the large bulk of
possible accretion must come from the Democra-
cy. The Republican organization is solid, com-
pact, vivified. The bestmenlnlts ranks areattend-
ing to its simplest duties. We shall put a ticket
of unexceptionable men into the field, standing
upon a platform sound and conservative as
to present business and financial conditions,
pledging the party to economic expenditure and
reduction in State, county, and municipal tax-
ation, and will send to the next Legislature
the best class of men who have served in the
Assembly since the adoption of the new Consti-
tution. It is an era of political renaissance,
and the Republican Party is abreast of the beat
thought and impulse of the time.
THE COSGBISSIONAL DISTKICTS.
The First District or the " Pocket " District,
Is Democratic, but the majority Is not absolute.
Two years ago the Greenbackers east 1,240
votes, within 300 of the Demootatic plurality.
Hon. Benonl S. Fuller will not be a candidate
for re-election. The Democrats will ' doubtless
run Mr. Henry Pitcher, <jf Mount 'Vemon, the
home of Mr. Fuller. Pitcher is popular In his
locality, but has no public record, and Is not
known in the State to any extant He is a
brother of Gen. Thomas G. Pitcher, formerly
Commandant of the National Soldiers' Borne,
near Washington. The Republicans have not
determined what to do, bnt a strong man wtll
be put up, who can poll the whole party vote,
and. It may be, elected.
In the Second District Hon. Thomas K. Cobb
will be renominated by the Democrats and re-
elected. There is a Democratic majority of
neariy G,000.
In the Third District there is considerable op-
""^nn^^sT^ongrand HerrK^pp. All the position to the return of Hon George ^ Btok-
pr"oiMtiIet-&uppi Qrusens. Armstrongs In- hneU, Mr. BiekneU was one of the best Judges

tho plates without sustaining to them-
selves any injury whatever. 'TCTiitworth

this murderous branch of manufactures, and

The Fifth DlstristwUI' see another contest
between (Jen. Tbonuui H. Browne and Hon.
William S. Hdhnsn. There is no good rewon
to believe the result will be dUTerent from that
of 1876, when Gen. Browne had l,528oMjozl^-
Hr. Holman is the prince of damagones. He
hasdomealvg")' bosiness on s sniaacr capital
than any other poUtictan In Indiana, nnd It has
beendisheartenhig to sselnflnential RepnbUesn
newf^^pers aiding Ur. Holman for the simple
reason that he hsa been a ehronie objector to
all appropriations, hoping to sneceed to Waah-
bume^s fame as the " wateh-dog of the Treas-
ury." Mr. Holman's statesm«>sbiD has never
risen above the grade of an sgrieoltiml-report-
seed-distribnting-and-babT-'Ussing canTSSS of
his district, and a cheese-paring coone of eeon-
omy in the Bouse. Certabily, the national no-
eessities do not demand his return to Congress,
and the best good of the State most assnzsdly
does not.
In the Sixth District there win be a contest
for the nomination between Hon. Milton S.
Robinson, present lnaambent,andM^r Gkeorge
W. Steele, of Marion: Col. C. T. Doxey, of
Madison, and Judge Joshua H. Hejletta, of
Henry County. The latter Is the ablest man of
the quartet. He came near being the ehotea of
the last State Convention fbr the Supreme
BenchI . He Is worthy tho honors of his party,
but Iwving made what is called a "hard-
money " apeeeh, it Is feared to be poor policy to
put him up In a district badly ttpetared with
Nationalism. Col. Doxey . was a member of the
test State Senate, bnt did not specially dlstu)-
gulsh himself, Major Steele is a prominent
pork-packer, a successful business man, and
was a good soldier, but has his political spurs
yet to win. The Democracy . have not con-
centrated upon their candidate. Tbe everlast-
ing Dave Gooding is out of the way since his
slaughter at the State Convention, and tbe
choice probably will be Scott Ray, a young
lawyer of Shelby Countv, who has cheek, per-
sonal address, and unlimited wind. The dis-
trict Is oontestable, but the present indications
do not Imperil the return of a Republican, who
will probably be Col. Robinson.
In the Eighth (the Terre Haute) District, Gen.
Morton C. Hunter wlU be renominated by the
Republicans, and the Demoerate will name
Cyrus F. MoNutt, of 'Vigo, formerly Law Pro-
fessor in the State University, ana who eight
years ago made die race in this district against
Gen. Cobum. and did it creditably. In the
Eighth the Nationals are very strong. They
will try and have Major O. J. Smith, editor of
the Terre Haute Sxpresa. for their candidate,
but he is hoping for the United States Senator-
ship by virtue of " the balance of power." The
prohabllltlea favor tho re-election of Gen.
Hunter, who is a most effective " still hunt "
canvasser, and whose advocacy of a 6 per cent
interest law affords him a popular hobby to ride
among his debtor constituents.
It is questionable whether in the Ninth Dis-
trict Michael D. White, of Montgomery County,
will be renotnioated ; a troublesome case of
Post Office at Lafayette — there being two Re-
publican newspapers and only one Postmaster-
ship — Impairs his availability. While It is quite
probable Mr. White will carry off the honor, he
will be bitterly fought, and the name of Mr.
Orth is frequently mentioned as his successor.
The Democrats will nominate Hon. John B.
Coffroth, who has been an| efficient member of
the General Assembly on various occasions, and
who was of counsel for Mllllgan, Bowles, and
Horsly in the treason trials. His Democracy
will wash, and he has ability and popular quali-
ties. He will make a strong canvass, but the
district is Republican with ireasonable certainty.
In the Tenth District the contest will be bet
tween Hon. W. H. Calkins, the present Repre-
sentative, and State Senator J. H. Winter-
botbam. both of Laporte County. Wlnter-
botham la a gray-haired old politleal fox, rich
with ths spoils of penitentiary contracts, a Re-
publican up to ls72. in that year a Greeley
Liberal, but since then a Democrat of tbe most
straltest sect He is unscrupulous enough to
take a high seat in Tammany, and has been the
subject of all manner of political scandals.
His ambition would be pleased to round out his
life with Congressional honors, and he might
be able to accomplish his object against a less
popular opponent than Major Calkins.
Hon James L. Evans will not be a candidate
for re-election in the Eleventh District, and the
fight is already between CoUThomas J. Blnghurst,
of Cass, and Col. N. P. Richmond, of Howard,
with a very strong undereurrent of feeling for
Hon. James N. Tyner, who formerly repre-
sented the district Of the !att:r it Is only
necessary to say that while in this elty last week
he said he would not seek the nomination, but
would accept it if tendered him.. CoL Blng-
hurst and Col. Richmond are both good and
strong men ; the former has had his eye on
Congress for some years, and tlilnks now he has
his hand on the coveted prize. He would prove
a serviceable Representative. Tbe Demoerate
have D. D. Dykeman, tbe Boss Kelly of Logans-
port, a restless Intriguant, wealthy, unscmuu-
lotis in politics, dashing, and showy ; Milo
Smith, of Fulton, a State Senator, pitiable and
plded by his party friends as a sort of mild and
innocuous ass ; Judge Moss, of Hamilton, solid
and substantial ; Oriham N. Fitch, of Logans-
port, ex-Unit«d States Senator, and several
others. Who will be finally selected it is hard to
say, but it will make no difference. Tbe dis-
trict is reliably Republican.
The Twelfth, or Fort Wayne District, will
send to the next Congress State Senator Dough-
erty, of Wells County, unless Mr. Hamilton en-
ters the llsu for reuomlnatlon. State Senator
Bell, of Allen, is making a fight for the place,
but If Hamilton Is not chosen, the honor will be
given to some other county In the dlstriet
Allen County has bad a monopoly of It for four
years, and, besides, has the State Treasorsrshlp
on the State Ticket, Gen. James H. Slack, of
Huntingtoo, is mentioned, but be is now a 0^
cult Judge and will be continued on the Benoh.
The Thirteenth District will return Hon. John
H. Baker, of Elkhart, who has proved a good
and faithful servant His competitor will prob-
ably be Capt James MlWhell, who is both his
law partner and brother-in-law.
In the Seventh, the Capital District, there U
no opposition to Hon. John Hanna, either in
his own party or in the opposition or in the
Nationals. Bis course in Congress has received
the indorsement of a public meeting called by
the Democracy to express ita views on the
financial question, held in this elty pending ths
silver debate. The Greenbackers captured the
meeting and concurred in the indorsement-
Mr. Hanna la the happy man who has succeed-
ed In pleasing everybody. Of course, when the
Republicans renominate him, the Demoerate
and Nationals will run candidates as matters of
form. But there Is no doubt of his return to
Congress by an increased vote and majority.
According to this brief revtow of the Con-
gressional field, the districts may be eUssifled
about thus: Certainly Democratic — Second,
Third, ana Twelfth. Certainly Bepubliean—
Fifth, Seventh, Tenth, Eleventh, and Thir-
teenth. Contestable, with chances largely Re-
Sublieaa— Fourth, Sixth, Eighth, and Ninth,
loubtful, with Democnao tendency— First.
KOTSS or THE CANVASS.
It Is worthy of remark that the policy and
purposes of the Administration cut Uttle or no
figure In politics. The BepubUeans — ^the work-
ing, fighting BepubUeans— have been utterly
diwnsted, and arenowentirely careless asto what
is done or not done. The parties are aligned on
thej general issne. The financial question
quieted, the BepubUeans will be strong because
of the economic and honest tendencies of the
par^, and the prodigal and dangerous tenden-
cies of the Democracy.
The "living Issoes" of the campaign, op
State poUcy, wlU be reduotion of eonnty ex-
penses and loeal taxattoD, and the bnlldlng of
the new Stete-honse. The Notionois WlU oppose
the latter on tbe score of economy, and the
BepubUeans wlB not attempt to carry it, beeoase
so far there is a decided tondencr on the part of
the Democracy, who control die Bond of
ConunissioBsrs, to nin it as a party Job. The
architect selected is a poUtlcol orcbttoct of not
first-clan ablUty or repntatton, and IsbelicTed
to owe his sttecess In the sUeged competition to
unfair poUtleal Infilueneea.

f'Eoir 4o yon trarel in the Eastern MasF
wiS asked in a "letter" received a short time
ago, andonUte sapposltian that the snbject
may be of general Interest I venture to make
the answer public rather than private. There
is a good deal of travel |n the far East, and
there are many featnrss partially or vhoQy un-
known to oor home wanderings. From San
FrsBclseo to Japan and China the travel is much
the some as over the Atlantic, and a description
of one will snswer with slight variationB as a
description of the othf r.
'We WlU suppose we have reached Hong
Kong, and, attar a week among the attractions
of Canton, an ready to proceed to Singapore.
Wo have choice of two regular Unes,'the Penln-
tnlar and Oriental Staom-ship Company (famil-
iarly known as "the P. and C") aqd the Com-
pognle des Messagaries Uaritlmes de France,
usually mentioned as "the French maU."
These lines form a weekly service by alterna-
tion, the P. and O. leaving' one week and the
French mall the next, and there are
other steamers somewhat Irregular in their
movemente, so that one may fairly
count on two departhres per week.
The P. and O. steamers go direct to Singa-
pore, while the French mail ships touch at Sai-
gon, in Cochin China, the only French posses-
sion In the far East The direct time Is usually
five days in the season of the north-east mon-
soon, and six days when the south-west mon-
soon Is blowing. AU the companies make al-
lowances in their tlms-teblea for the monsoons,
the powers of a favoring er opposing wind being
so weU known that the calculation and allow-
ance can be made with accuracy.
As we leave Hong Kong we find ourselves in
wanner weather, and It increases as we move
to the south. The tropical sun is hot in spite
of the Winter season, and we are fain to escape
from ite heat A double awning covers the
deck, and the passengers sit in long chairs
which have a faint resemblance to a bed, and
are each, or should be, the personal property of
iteocoapant Theseabreese Is generally cool
enough to prevent Inconvenience, but fre-
quently the nilddle of the day, even on deck,
is suggestive of the temperature of the fiery
furnace constructed by Nebuchadnezzar for the
occupation of those who feU under his dis-
pleasure. The necessity of deck chairs
Is so weU understood here that each person is
pretty certain to have his own, and whether he
Das or not he respecte caret uUy the property of
others. On the Atlantic you can be sura that
year deck chair wlU be appropriated by some-
body (generally a woman) without leave or U-
eense, and you are considered a rude fellow if you
send a steward and lay eloim to your own. But
here in the East it is rare Indeed that any one
wonld venture to occupy your property in that
way, partly for ths reason that almost every one
has hia own chair, and partly because he or she
would be heortUy ashamed to do so and make
the smaUsst Invasion npon another's rights.
In the cabins the heat is intolerable in tbe
daytime and frequently at night, so that most
of the possengen sleep on deck. The heat Is
kept down at meal times by means of jmnkakt,
long fans snspended over the tables and swung
back and forth by means of a eord in the hand
of a stalwart aauor or servant. The windows
of the rooms — where the steamers are specially
built for the Eastern service — are nearly two
feet sqtiare, with a bull's-eye In the
centre, and in fine weather they are
held open by means of iron rods, swing-
ing on hinges. Tbe sides of the cabins and
also the doore are made of double lattices, so
that tbe air can dretUate freely and at tbe same
time no one can see through them. Until quite
recently the steamers of the Messageries Mari-
time* hod a sMp of sheet-iron, half a foot wide
and perforated with large holes, miming arotmd
the whole length of the cabins both above and
below. Light and vision can easily pass through
these parfonrttons, but they have been diacon-
tinned below on the new ships, and only the
upper ones remain. In response to a qnestion
as to the reason of the discantinuanee, the Cap-
tain of the Anadyr said: "Zo ladles avee ze
large feet made much objections, and ze com-
po^ile think not to have them more." A very
proper explanation, and one that wUl appeal to
many a heart and head.
The tables on aU the steamers are weU, or at
least falriy, supplied, and certainly no one is in
danger Of staarration. The fares are hl(h when
compared with oar transatlantic ones, and cer-
tainly the posssngers deserve to be well cared
for. Frequently Uie figures average more than
$20 per day, (coin,) and in some Instances they
reach $1 an hour. With the two great Unes —
the Peninsular and Oriental and tho French
moil- the fares ore the sams,wlth the difference
that the latter includes wine and beer at table
while the former does not The steamers
of the French mail are said to be finer and bet-
ter kept than thoseof the Peninsular and Orien-
tal, and the oBeen more attentive to the wanta
of the patrono, I have not even set foot on a
Peninsular and Oriental steamer, and, therefore,
cannot speA from actool knowledge. I have
been eereral timee on the French ships, and
like them very ranch ; and it Is a curious fact
speaking volumes In si quiet iray, that the ma-
iority of En^iahmen in the far East avoid the
'eoinsalar and Oriental ships, (which are
their own nationalitr,) and travel by the
Fivneh mail. Prom' Singapbre to Ceylon on
the Messageries steamer were 35 passengen
In the first cabin, and not a single French man
or woman in the lot The majority were Eng-
lish, and thf rest Duteh. Oermans, Sanca, Bos-
slans, and Americans. Everything was as com-
fortable as It eoold be eonvenleBtly; theoffleen
were poUte, tbe ship was Urge ana as flean as a
newlr-washed baby, the table was good, the
wines atmndant, passengen amiable, and only
the intense heat in tdt Straits ot Malacea made
the voyag< an uncomfortable one.

through thennmerons cracks and crevices of the
badly-eonstmcted earriago, and very often

(MboB horse. There an not tar from 6.000
miles ot railway in India, and nearly aUthe
Hbs* were bnilt by private eompanies under a
Government guarantee of 6 wer cent on the
cost ot construction. Most oi the lines are of
six feet gauge, but there are many s'maU lines
of local importance of three and a halt feet
AU the roads, as far as I have observed,
are well bnilt and equipped, and the
management isgeneraUy ersdiuble. The trains
are not run at a high speed ; the quickest train
is the through moU between Bombay and Cal-
entta, and It requires a Uttle over 60 hours for
a distance of 1,409 miles. No sleeping-cars
are rvn upon this or any other train, but tbe
seats are so amnged that you can have a com-
fortable dormitory, provided there are few pas-
sengers. Four persons can lie at f uU length,
anCsleep comfortably In a compartment, out
the companies do not profess to ftimlsh sleep-
ing accommodations, and a notice is posted up
to the' effect that each comparrment is intended
for eight persons. If that nilmber offer they
must be taken, and It sometimes happens that
you are stirred up In the small houre and com-
pelled to sit erect for the rest of the night.
From Singapore to Calcutta one has choice of
several routes. Once a month there is a steamer
from the former to the latter port, and touch-
ing at Malacca, Penang, Moulmein, and Ran-
goon ; it remains two days at Rangoon and one
day at each of the other ports, and thus a trav-
eler may have a very fair gUmpse ot Burmah
and the stralte ports. Twice or three times a
month there are direct steamers from Smga-
pore to Calcutta; they make the voyage
in six or eight days, while the
other line I have mentioned takes 17 days for
the voyage. Once a week the regular maU
steamer wlU take you from Singapore to Pointe
de Galle. In Ceylon, and you may safely count
on an extra steamer weekly, and In the busy
season oftener. From. GaUe to Colombo you
may go by steamer, (60 miles) or by the coach,
which leaves twice dally and Is drawn by horses
of such staying Qualities that is fre-
Quentiy necessary to buUd a fire beneath
them as an encouragement to move on.
After doing Ceylon we find a steamer every
Saturday to take us to Tutlcarin, on the main-
land, whence there is railway connection
throughout India. If one does not care for
Southern India, he may take every Monday (at
Colombo) a steamer of tbe British India Steam
Navigation Company, which touches at about a
dozen coast ports, including Madras and, gene-
rally, Pondichery. The steamers are of me-
dium size, with good accommodations for pas-
sengers, and the traveler Is pretty certain to
find plenty of room on board. There are other
lines of steamers which touch at Colombo and
Galle and run direct to Calcutta, and once a
month there is a steamer of the Mesageries
Maritimes from Gallo to Calcutta, and touching
oiUy at Pondlcbery and Madras.
"we will suppose that we have done India and
are ready to leave Bombay for Egypt and Eu-
rope. The Peninsular and Oriental Company
sends a weeidy steamer, and ite departure is
fixed for Saturday during the south-west mon-
soon, and for Monday when the monsoon is not
bloying. There is another weekly service,
which Is formed by the Anchor Line and the
Hull Line, making alternately fortnightly de-
partures. Then there is an Italian Line and
an Austrian Line, each monthly, and
there are numerous Irregular steamers, so
that four departures a week may
be fairly counted upon. The Penin-
sular and Oriental is the fashionable
line, and ite charges are much higher than those
of the other steamers; you must pay £50
($250) by tbe Peninsular and Oriental to Suez,
a run of 3,000 miles, whUe the Italian Line
will take you for £30, the Anchor and HnU
Lines for £35. and the Austrian Line for $30.
Some assert that the Peninsular and Oriental
ships are much better than their rivals, while
others say they are not I leave tbe reader to adopt
any opinion he likes. Patronage appears to be
fairly divided between the lines, the " swells"
going Invariably by the Peninsular and Oriental,
while those whose nurses are not bottomless, and
to whom money is aa object take the cheaper
ships. To irascible bachdors, the voy-
age from Bombay has a certain terror.
From February to May the steamera are
crowded with children and their nurses en route
for Europe, and no matter what ship he takes he
cannot avoid -them. Like the poor, they are
always with him, and will not be shaken off.
The steamer on which I now write has 15
adulte of the first class, five children, and four
ntirses, and the doctor tells me it Is not a good
day for children, as they often have 15 or 20

again they make things lively, and It is fortu-
nate for toe coherency of tbU letter that I am
a passionate admirer of infantile ways. An
Irate bachelor who site near me at table Is in a
constant rage, and has frequentJylnvoked the
presence of the good King Herod. This
morning he told me bad gone back on Herod ;
" I have been reading him up," said he, ' ' and
find he has been greatly overrated, and is only
half the benefactor he Is supposed to be. He
only slew the male children and letHfae females
go, and he would do no good ou this ship, as aU
our jiivenUe passengen are girls."
It is generally well known in America that the
climate ot India la considered fatal to ehUdren
of English parentage. They lose health and
become colorless wrecks of humanity If kept
here after six yeara of age ; besides, there are
tew faculties here tor their education, and, con-
sequently, a father of atamUymust make up
bis mind to be separated from his children just
at the age when they are becoming dearest to
him. 'The Spring and early Summer are con-
sidered the best time for them to arrive In
Europe, and hence the travder at this season
finds the steamen flUed with childrenand nurses.
As far as I can observe they are neariy all ot
tbe spoiled class, accustonied to have their
own way and to the attentions of an abundance
of servante, and to resent with anger sny at-
tempt to thwart them. Consequently, I can-
not severely blame my irascible friend, and
think the companies wetild find Ittothelrproflt
to run an oeoulonal steamer at higher rates,
from which children shotdd be excluded, just

From Owr Own Oorir^enint,
ALBAxr. Saturday, April 13, 1878.
The progress of the work upon the new Capi-
tol makes It probable that tbe Commissioners wiU be
able to cany out the promise they made at the open-
ing of the year, and that the next Legislature will
ssssmble In ths sew bnUdlng. Tbe Senate, it the
promise be (olllUsd, will ba temeorarily boused In
the Court of Appeals room, whioh Is inmwdiately be-
aeath the Assembly Chambsr, bnt in another .ynx It
Till be enabled to occupy Its proper quartets on the
south side of the baUdlng, in an apartment which
the plans and designs so far published show to be
singularly beautiful and commodious. Tbe Assem-
bly Chamber, on the north side ot the buUdlng. is
now being roofed in— the root Itself running up to
such a towering height that It may be seen miles off.
The chamber Is nearly three times as laige as the
chamber In the old buildtcc though the great height
ot ite vaulted root takes off ths impression o( so
much floor space. The chamber Is a magnificent
piece ot arehltectnralwork ; Its massive columns and
hish sweepUuE arches producing an effect of
grandear comparable only to that of an old
cathedral. The one fear expressed by many
whose opinion is entitled to attention. Is ' that
with all Its mssnifieence, it will prove a poor room
to Bpedk in. -The architects, however, say they are
willing to risk their reputation npon Its prorlnga
good one; and that itsaeoostlc qualities will be as
good or better than those of the old Assembljr Chain.
ber. No fault can be found with the old chamber on
this score; it Is as good a room to l>e beard in as any;
but that is about all that can be said in Its favor. It
is mean In appearance, cramped it space, and the
ventilation is horrible. In fact then Is no ventila-
tion, notwithstanding that thousands of dollars
have been spent in trying to bring it about Anv
one entering the cbamber from tbe outer air after
the House has been in session some three or four
hours. Is almost nauseated with the close and foul
atmosphere he meets there; and night sessions,
when aU the gas bumeis aie lit, have been attended
with such painful consequences to members in poor
health, that this year it wss determined to hold the
second sessions of the day in the afternoon, instead
of at night as formerly.
The time has now almo ^t sxrived when the old
building, erected in ISOd from the proceeds of a
State lottery, is to lie abandoned, to be demolished,
audita site laid out as part of the park In front of
the new OapiteL Seventy Leeislatures have met In
It ; have passed laws for the srovernment of a com-
munity which in that period hss Increased from less
than 1.000,000 to more then 4,500,000 souls,
and in wealth in still areater proportion. It is
worthy of ipecial notice, therefoie, that this rear,
the last in which tbe Legislature of the State shall
eather in the old boildlcg, a sort ot historical memo-
rial has been prepared, representing t>oth As-
semblr and Senate in session in their re-
spective ctiambers. Tbe work has been done
by a leading Montreal firm of photographers,
who have a branch house in Albany; and the artistic
ioKenuity displayed iu tbe work, no less than tbe
snbject may render a descriptioD of it intetestiDg.
The finn reierred to have given their name to pho-
tographs prepared in the way the two pictures of the
Aasembly and Senate have t>eea made. It is a sort
of combination photograph. Everrbody knows the
extreme dilBenlty of photographing groups, ana that
the difficulty is increaaed in proportion as tbe size of
the group iucreasea. One may easily imafdne, there-
fore, thfct to photograph an assemblage of lf>2 per-
sons, gathered in a large chamber, and to
do it so that every fare shall be correctly and
plainly portrayed, would be an impossibility by the
ordiaary methods- The pirture just pubHsbed of the
Assembly contains that number of figures, and it
represents the House almost exactly as it would ap-
pear in full session. To do this it was required tiiat
every person of the 162 ahould be taken separately,
and the portrait-taking for this purpose has been go-
ing on here for weeks. Every individaal was taken
with special reference to the place be wa.s to occupy
in the picture, the places of all the members, offleera
of the Honse. reporters. &c., beine marked on the
official diagram of the chamber, which was used by
the photogrsphers as their snide. Tho large major-
ity of tfaememberswere, of course, taken sittine, just
as they would be in the House ; but where it hap-
pened that when sitting they would be invisible
frem the point of view the spectator is supposed to
stand in viewing the finished picture, they were
^ taken standing in appropriate attitudes forgrouping.
'When the entire 16*2 portraits had been taken, every
portrait was cut out with extreme nicety and care-
rally pasted in its proper place upon a drawing of
the interior of the Assembly Chamber." Every mem-
ber sitting was placed in his rurht seat, those taken
standing were grouped naturally and easily aiK>ut
the chamber, or otherwise disposed so as to be visible.
When the whole had been completed in this wsy,
the combination picture was photographed, and
the result is a life-like representation of the
Assembly Obamtier in session, in which every face
and figure is reeOKuizable at a glance. The spectator is
supposed to be standing at a point on the north side
of the room. Speaker Htisted is atandiog op ia his
lofty place of atate, as If be were just reeognizlnc
some member who had addressed him ; behind and
beside him stand his paire and clerk ; below, within
the eircie of tbe Clerk s desk, are Clerk J oimson, who
is standing in his regular place, facing the House, as
if reading ; Assistant Clerk Alien is looking toward
tbe spectator ; othsr clerks are there busy at their
regular duties. Outside the half circle of the desk
the reporters appear seated In their proper ehsiix,
listening or writing : two or three, whose seats
would M out of sight, are standina np. Directly in
the foreground several members, whoee seats would
pisoe them with their backs to tbe spectator, are in
such sttitedes— essy and natural, however— as
bring their faces into view. Among these
are Mr. Aster, Mr. Bergen, Judge Piper,
Mr. Preseott, Mr. Orafaam. Mr. Holahao, Mr. Floyd-
Jones, and others. Mr. Hepbnm — who, however, is
least easily recognized because in profile — Mr. W ar-
Ing Sad Mr. Brooks sre standing. The portrait of
Mr. Brooks is paitlenlariy good. Re stands erect
and straight, a paper in his hand from which It
miabt seem he was speaking ; his sombre expression
of feature, square jaw aad firm month, bron^ht into
strong ntaet, and yet withal lookiuK all that be Is— a
eultured gentlenian. A little to tbe left of Mr.
Brooks ess notieea ta their proper places Mr. Skla-
ner, Mr. Tkompson, aad Mr. Gilbert, but the latter
wonld have looked better If taken full face, and his
severely eat fsatetea better vcadued than they are.
In the eeatrs «t the cbsmtaer, with Mr. Halliday, Mr.
Orady, Mr. Tbaln, seated naarhim, tbe bright face
of }£t. Puzdyappcariag behind aad to one aide, with
Mr. Wadswottb Deal, stands Oov. Alvord, the
Kestor of ths Hoasfc Be stands up jnst aa
is his eostom, with his tiinmbs stuck ia tbe arm-
holss et his vest— aa attitede at osae expositery asd
deflapt, Bnt for tbe good-humored expression upon
his face, one eoald almost imagine him saying; as he
strikes that attUads, "Kow, Mr. I^eidur, what
does this argument amount to I It amoaata to just
this," ix, — which is a favorite preface with him to
deaioU^Uag cha argnmeos of oa oppooeDt. The old
geptleiBaB looka m his gnynass and vigor, every
Inch the Isaosr, and one whose name will be long re-
membered Id the parilamentary annals of tnis State.
Dr. Hayes appesn welU He, too, is standing la his
plaeey Ina verr ^laracteristic attitode. for he leans
slightly forward aad aidewlss a^^nst his desk in a
way common with him when rising to address the
Speaker, or ask a queetloi] of him. Mr. MoUer, Mr.
Kbeard, Jamea Hayes, and other meint}ers appear be-
hind the Dooter In natural attitudes, such as one
may see them assvme any dsy. Various officers of
the House are npnsented about It— the Sergeant-a^
Arms, oaeortwoof hisasslsunts,andtheone-legged
soldier Doop>keep«r on his erutehes. There Is very
little sUifaeBS about any of the 11gnres,'and tbe effect
ot the whole picture is wonderfully life-like and
natural.

ITJLLEB ASOUT LONDOH. By AcaratOT J. C Exn. '
Iiom<Iaa : Oawaa Bomuma * Soai. 1878.
A title like the above, when pat forth by
- the tatOun of Walki ateHt Romt, is sofflcient of
Itaelf to uoiue ezpeetmttong which sie more
th»n naUsed in th« preient Tohime— an ample
proof how Interecttng and eTsn amniingthe
l««p«at learning mar bo made, when it eon-
leteendA to take the form of easjr and
•leaaabt chit-chat, instead of breaking Iti read-
»r's head with enmbrous poIysyUablea and pon-
laroos teehnieaUtiea. It wonld be diffloultto
Bnd in any encyclopedia an ampler or more
(oUr diseated eollection of all thelmpo^nt
hitta relating to the ancient capital; yet the
work la gnita aa entertaining as an ordinary
noTol. and a tithe of the " good stories " which
It oontaina would set np a professional diner-out
tor lUe. The book is, in fact, what it styles it-
Klf— a •• walk." The genial Archdeacon takes
yon by the arm, and condaots yon from street
to street, from square to square, from one great
boose to anothw, Qnding something worth bear-
ing to say about each and all, just aa Herodotus
may have done when chaperoning some country
oousin from Achanue through the "lions" of
uident Athens. This spot was the scene of
nme grim medlsval tragedy ; that, the favorite
haunt of the court beantiea of Henry VIII. or
James 1; here stood a Roman bath, tl)ere a
Norman gateway. One house recalls an epigram
by Swift, another a poem by Milton or Dryden.
A.Iong such a street Elizabeth entered the city
m triaaph after the destruction of the Armada ;
^trough such another the Jacobite prisoners
were led to their doom, after the rout of Cnl-
loden.
Of flia two volumes, the first deals ehleSy
with the city, the second with the west end.
The farmer naturally has the advantage in an-
tiqumriaa and historical Interest; but for any
one intending to visit London, the latter pos-
nsses an the merits of a guide-book, with one
tdditlonal merit which no guide-book ever pos-
Msaed yet — that of being readable throughout.
In this respect it maycompare with Mr. Lottie's
{* tmd Out of London, a much' smaller but, in
Its way, eqnally valuable work, which appeared
k few yean ago. Kensington is set before us
In full, from the Albert Hall, its latest acqntsi-
Uon, to Holland House, Ita earliest, which our
author, with charaeteristio modesty, describes
byqnotiBgat length the splendid passage that
doses Haeanlay's essay on Lord Holland.
Chelsea, with ita spacious embankment, and the
(ew quaint old water-side streets stUl spared
by the modem mania for pulling down — the
elnstariag trees and artiflcial lake of Hyde
Park— the National Qallery in Trafalgar-square,
and every picture which it contains — Blnights-
brldce, and the legend of the fatal combat
whence it drew its name — the wonderful pano-
rama of Begent-street and Oxford-street —
Whitehall, the description of which is the his-
tory of modem England carved in a cameo —
all pass in review before us one by one, the
desenption being aided by numerous illustra-
tions, which, small aa they are, represent very
fairly the principal objects of interest. The
vivid picture of the ancient Palace of Lambeth,
with all its tragic memories, and the crowning
Interest o( the Lollards' Prison in its highest
tower, contains more than one of those graphic
tittle touches which say more than a volume of
drydatail. " The boards bear notches cut by
the nriaoaers tomark the lapse of time. The
eight rings remain to which they were secured;
one feels that his companions must have en-
vied the one by the window. Above some of
the rings the boards are burned with the hot
iron used in torture." The gem of the volume,
however, is nndoubledly the two chapters on
Westminster Abbey, which must be left to the
reader's own judgment; for any attempt at
quotation would infallibly end in the tran-
KTiblng of the entire section, like the prompter
U an amateur performance, whose duty seemed
to eoosist In redtiDg the whole play at the b>p
of hi* voice.
But if the second volume is more immediately
and superficially entertaining, the first is one to
catom to again and again, with the certainty of
diseoveilng some new object of interest at each
peroaaL Any reader who should add a thor-
ough knowledge of it to an equal familiarity
with the writings of Dickens, might safely put
himself forward as an oracle upon London and
everything connected with it ; and, indeed, onr
author's frequent allusions to Ute latter's works
salttriently show his appreciation of the genius
tiiat evoked scenes of imperishable interest
firom a region osoally regarded as a mere
erow4ad and dirty labyrinth of brick and mor-
tar. The ebaptwr on the " Inns of Court "
eoald certainly have no fitter supplement than
a careful perusal of that matchless description,
whose ghastly intensity falls like a sudden
gloom across the boisteroas mirih of Pielaoiek.
JSqaally valuable are those which treat of the
fitnad. Fleet-street, Sodthfleld, and Cheapside,
haanted by memories of stem nrelates, supple
cojjrtiera, lavish and ' profligate noble*, intri-
gnlng beauties, struggling poets and pidnters,

oits,' highwaymen, and all the picturesque
dramaiit psrssno of the age that Uacanlay loved
to describe and Thackeray to revive. Wych-
street recalls the explots of Jack Sheppard;
Crown Oiflce Bow commends Itself as the birth-
place of the gentlest and kindliest of modem

BTAR-GAZIKO: PAST AKD PBK3EHT. ByJ.Koaaui
Locxns, r. B. S. London: ""—"■"« A Co,
1878.
The work whioh has been oompretsed into
a portion of a recent book of popular astronomy
by Prof.. Simon Neweomb, of Washington, is
given at great length, and with the aid of fine en-
gravings, in this handsome volume by Norman
Lockyer. It had its origin from lectures deliv-
ered by Mr. Lockyer, with the assistance of O.
H. Seabroke, F. R. A. S., in a course before the
Boyal Institution. The short-hand notes for
those lectures have been expanded into an impos-
ing voltmie, ornamented by photographa of re-
markable astronomical instruments, wood-cuts
explaining the working of improved telescopes,
and at least one print giving the portrait of a
distinguished astronomer. This is the Danish
plon'eer, Tycho Brshe, as he appeared at the age
of 50. It is taken from the original painting
owned by Dr. Compton, of Manchester. Mr.
Lockyer is engaged in editing other books while
this one is coming before the public, notably
the translation, by Mrs. Lockyer, ot GuiUe-
min's Inlnduetion to Me Study of Phytieu His
subject is attacked in the present volume in a
spirit of thoroughness. His purpose is to give
a thorough description of the present state
of astronomy from the practical or me-
ehanieal point of view. He leads 'off with
a book on the pretelescopic age and devotes the
second book to the telescope. Book III. advises
ot time and space measures ; Book IV. of mod-
em meridional observations; Book V. ot the
instrument called the "equatorial," and the
last and longest division, of the physics of as-
tronomy. When treating of the telescope, he
first describes the retraction of light and the
part called the refractor ; next of the nSeetions
of light and the part called the reflector. The
subject of "eye-pieces" leads to descriptions of
the processes by which lenses and specula are
manufactured. The "opUek tube" comes
next, and the complete telescope brings up the
rear. This is an example of the practical method
used in the volume.
Mr. Lockyer has occasion, in the conrse of his
remarks, to say something of American astrono-
mers. On page 119 we notice a good-humored
hit at American ambition. He mentions that
Chance, of Birmingham, having coostructed
disks ot glass of 23 inches diameter for Mr.
Newall's telescope, has also completed for the
American Qovemment the large disks used in
constructing the refractor of 26 inches diame-
ter for the Observatory at Washington. The
Americans, he adds In a parenthesis, are never
content till they go an inch beyond their rivals.
But in the chapters on celestial photograohy, in
the division on astronomical physics, he gives
the highest praise to Mr. Rutherfurd, of New-
York. He describes how that gentleman.
In 1858, combined his first stereograph
of the moon independently of Mr. De La Rue's
success in the same field in England. In 1859
and 1860 he attempted two new methods, of
obtaining photographs, in 1861 another, and
in 1864 still another, entirely new. For this he
constructed an lll< lens. Finally, by com-
bining a lens of peculiar shape with an 11^
object-glass of his own fabrication, Mr. Ruther-
furd. eclipsed all his former photographic efforts.
Says Mr. Lockyer in this connection :
" We need not enlarge on the extreme Importance
of what Mr. Katherfurtl h&5 been doios in photo-
Eraphlng star clusters and star groups. It ia doubly
Important to astronomy and starts a new metnod of
Qsiog the equatorial and the elock ; In fact, it elves
US a method by which observations may be photo-
fRsphlcally made of two proper motions of stars,
and even the parallax of stars may be thus de-
termined Independently ot any errors of observers.
Ur. Rutherfurd shows tbat the places of stars can
be measured by a micrometer or a plate In the same
way aa by ordloary obserratlon : hence photography
can be made use of in the measurement of posltiou
and distance of donbls stars. • • • We owe the
first speetrnm of thesnn, showing the various lines,
to Beeqiurel and Draper ; the finest hitherto published
we owe to Mr. Rutherfurd."
New-Yorkers may well feel proud ot this
acknowledgement ot the serviees of their dis-
tinguished fellow-townsman in the sublimest of
the sciences.
HARPER'S SCHOOL GEOQRAPHT: With Map* and
lllnatratioDs prepared expressly for this work, by
emtoent Amenoan Artists. Kew-Tork : Haarsa m
BsffTHSBa.
We mention this Trork at the present time
on account of the introduction of a new and ad-
mirable feature whleh at onee places it in ad-
vance of all publications of a similar character.
The familiar volume whioh is already endeared
to a large class of students throoghont the
United States by its clear and sueolnet treat-
ment of the bewildering science of geography is
now issnsd in editions designed for the speelat
use of various States and seotiona. These State
editions, as they are called, contain. In addition
to the original work, an appendix in which
scholan will find their own State treated with
special prominence and detail, and illustrated
with a larger map, together with nomerons
plans and engnvlnga. Each ot the larger
Statae necessarily demands a distinot edition ;
but in the case of smaller ones, for Inatanea
such as Vermont and New-Hampshire, two are
grouped together.
The appearance of anew sehool-book is not,
as a general thing, an occnrrenee that produces
much enthusiasm In the mind of the, public.
The tact that "there is no royal roa4 to
learning" is so thoroitghly impressed upon
ail elaaaas, that when a new volume ap-
pean whieh undertakes to sntooth, in some
measure, the mggedness of the present path, it
is apt to be regarded distrustfully. Indeed, the
appliances of teaching seem to be intricate
enough to produce the most astonishing results ;
the number and diversity of text-books de-
manded by the enrriculum of any one of our
common schools 'would appear to argne an
amount of general information comprehensive
if not partioularly aecuiate. Yet a eursory
examination of one poor little beneficiary ot all
these aids to learning will usually serve as an
illnstration of the vanity of human expe«tatioiu.
The fault ia generally that too much has been
attempted. There is a disposition to teach so
much that nothing ia thoroughly and eSoetual-
ly taught. Thus, when a propoaitloa ia made
to Introdtice a new text-book whieh shall enter
into some fresh ramification of a aabjeet sap-
posed to be important to the jnvenlle minid. «x-
periensed heads are apt to remember, with a .
sigh, the small advance made in aequirtag Ae
very rudiments, and wonder how any more ia
to be aeeompUshed.
Apparentiy, the learned eompHen of the vol-
ume we have before us have been thoroughly
familiar with this aspect of the edacatlonal
problem. They have not been so carried away
by their enthusiasm for geographical aeieaee
aa to <erget that they were preparing a test-
book for bewildered little heads, whose Imagine
tion ean scarcely stretch beyond the great hill
over the way or the pond at tiie foot of the vil-
lage. In devising these State geognphiee,
they give the small student a chance to become
frn^iH.f with the .situation and bearings of
places with whose namsa he is already fa-
miliar. He Is given a basis for exareistag his
imsglnaWon in retzard to tovms and siM^

tag fully the very qiot wbaia he sow Ut«&
for lattanea, we iiave open brfoir* tm a copy
of the geogni^y the appendix of whieh Ulna-
tratea and describes the State o^ HeW^Tork.
Hen the Empire State appears irtzetehlag
magniileentiy aerois aa entire page, the
Tattoos hues of ita hamonlonsly-finted
eountiea forming a baokground for a set-wotk
ot rivers, railroads, and .canals, uaong whleh
the scholar will be enabled to find every town
or lake whleh he has ever Tinted or beard of
within the limits of his native State. Agidn,
In addition to this, there is a map" ot the (Htias
ofNew-l^ork and Brooklyn. Here the same small
head srbich may have been puxzled for years to de-
termine the locality of Ararat and Popocatepetl
will at once light upon such familiar points as
Central Park and Coney Island, not to speak of
the Beservoir and Zoological Oardens, whleh
also appear. There is a positive hope that
geography such as this may be introduced to
and remain in the minds of some of out juvenile
aspirants after learning. The child that knowa
whether he is on his way east or west or north
or sonth when he goes to Manhattan Beadi, will
get an insight into the meaning Of these points
of the compass wtilch neVer can be had as long
as he connects no other thought with them thui
'that they indicate the different sides of his
school map. To show one of these pnxxled lit-
tieatudents Central Park on the map of New-
York maybe the means of opening his whole
mind to the science of geography, which up to
that time has been so vast as to be meaningless.
But while specially complimenting the ar-
rangement of these local znaos it is only fair to
give the compilers credit for the wisdom shown
throughout the whole preparation ot the book.
The leading porpoae, as we are informed in the
publisher's preface, is to present geography in
its commercial aspects, but attention haa by no
means been confined to this, nor have other
parts of the study been neglected. Physical
geography has, so to speak, been made the basis
of the plan, and upon it is woven a system of po-
litical and descriptive geography both thorough
and comprehensive. Indeed, special pains have
been taken to Introduce a double series of maps,
showing the physical divisions of the earth aa
opposed to the poUticaL The Introduction of
railroads is also something new. The main
feature of attraction is, however, as already
stated, the local maps; which will Interest the
student as treating of places with the sound of
whose name he is familiar, and thus enable him
to grasp the idea ot geography by associating it
with that part of the world in which he lives,
of which he has already some immediate knowl-
edge. Eighteen of these State editions have,
we leam, been already published and received
with marked favor in their various sections.
The price is the same as that of the original
work before the introduction of the appendices.
This tact, taken in connection with the positive
excellence of the new feature, will not fail to
make these books popular alike with parents,
teachers, and scholars.

The Money market was easy during the week,
with call loans in most instances at 5 to 6 f
cent., and exceptional transactions at 7 f cent,
on stock collateral : but on pledse of Oovern-
ment bonds borrowers could find ample accom-
modation at 4«4>g f cent. It is quite mani-
fest that the apparent stringency developed by
the market at intervals during the previous
week was due to artificial manipulation, with
the view ot . affecting the stock market As
may be seen in the bank statement, the return
flow of currency from the interior has already
set in, and an easy working ot the money mar-
ket seems to be assured. In dissount, prime
mercantile paper was quoted at 5 to 7 ^ cent.,
these rates being merely nominal
The foreign advices reported the London
market strong for Consols, which advanced
steadily from 94 11-16 to 05»b®05 1-6 for
both money and the account. United States
bonds were also strong and higher up to the
close, when a fractional reaction took place.

improvement ot ^'9 Sg J^ cent, on the week's
transactions. In American railway shares Erie
common rose from ipsgto 11^ and the pre-
ferred from 24I4 to 25. The coal shares were
weak and declined 1^9% 4^ cent Bar silver
declined a fraction each day successively, the
final quotation having been 5334d. t^ ounce.
English standanL The Baiik of England
continued to lose bullion steadily, the de-
crease tor the fiscal week ending Wednesday,
amounting to £453,000 ; the proportion of re-
serve to liabilities was 33^ V cent., against
32 1-16 the previous week ; the bank rate of
discount remained .3 f cent, with rate for
three months' bills in the open market 2I9 V
cent Rentes at Paris advanced from
108f. 70o. to 109f. 35c.«109f. 25c The
Paris rate for Sterling at the dose was25f. 15c
'Fhe Bank of France lost specie to the amount
of 5,700,000 fnncs during the week, and the
Imperial Bank of Oermany 7,200,000 marks.
In the Storiing Exchange market the trade
of the week waa an average one. the decline in
rates as well as in the gold premium having
tempted mercbanta to make remittances. Busi-
ness with the bond dealers wss only moderately
active. Shippers accept the small premium on
gold now more freely wan when it was over 1
¥ cent, being evidently under the impression
that the premium will soon disappear altogether.
Speeulaton in bills w«e treated to a " scare "
last week in the decline in sterling, whioh will
be apt to make them more cautious in taking
large lines for any anUcinated advance in rates
pending Government operations with the syn-
dicate. At the olose the nominal asking rates
were $4 87 for long storiing. and $4 8OI3 for
sight drafts, irith aetoal business at $4 86 for
bankers' 60-day blUs. $4 88Ib«$4 88!l4 for de-
mand, $4 89 3 $4 89.^ for cable transfers, and
$4 83>3«$4 841t for eommeroial bills on
London.
The Oold speetdation was exceedingly weak,
the price declining tram lOQTg to IOOI4, the
lowest figure ever recorded since gold first eom-
manded a premium. The weakness of the mar-
ket was based on the decline in exchange, as-
sisted materially, of course, by the earnest
preparations now being made by the Secretary
of the Treasury to carry ont the proyisiona of
the Resumption act Mr. Sherman's negotia-
ttona with the syndicate for the plaojng of
$50,000,000 of the 4I3 V centa to obtain
an ample supply of Qold wherewith to
redeem all the leg^sl-tonder notes that
are likely to be presented at the Treas-
tiry ootmter, together with the steady de-
ellne in sterling Mils of all kinds aa the result
of the praetiealcessatton of bond importations,
have created a general belief that shipmenta of
Gold anpraetiuUy ended, and that the nominal
premium which was quoted at the doae of the
week win very soon disappear altogether. On
Oold loans the rates ranged from 1 to 6 I* cent
for canrying, with borrowing flat
Qovemment bonds, whleh generally followed
closely the decline in the Qold premium, showed
a loss of ^ to M4 4K oent on the week's transac-
tions, the tetter in 5-20s of 1865. The excep-
tions were S-SSOs of 1868 and new 5s, whiiJi re-
mained firm ttutraghout Railroad bonds were
In active demand, bat prices, as a rale, showed
very little change from the final quotations of
the pievlons week, exeepting some of the issues'
of the Ohio and Missisdppi, Wabaah, Hannibal
and St Joseph, IMawaze and Hudson, Qreat
Western, Morris and Sssex. and Canada South-
em CbmoMiies, whieh diaidayed great strength.
In State bonds, LoaisianM and Tennessees were
strong, North Carolinas were steady, and Vir-
ginias, Uisaoniis, and District of Colimibia
3.66s ware week and lower.

belief that the eontinooos inereese in the eaiB-

Congress has been in session Blmost coc-
tinuoasiy since the middle of October last.
Several important appropriation bills have
not ret passed the House, in which they
originate, and the Tariff bill is yet un-
touched. The House promises, at this late
day, to do some real work, and, by way of a
beginning, night sessions are ordered for
the present week. The Tariff bill, we are
told, will be turned over to the raral mem-
bers, who may improve the night hours for
the Durpose of informing their " dees-
tricks " what they think about those clauses

of their constituents. It is hoped, however,
that enotigh real work maybe accomplished
to render possible the adjournment of Con-
fess by Jane next.
An Indiana correspondent of The Times
presents an entertaining and cheery view of
iie political prospect in. that State. lu-
liana is burdened with Democratic states-
men, and with, three such great men as
Hesdbicks, Voorhees, and " Blue Jeans "
Williams, the Oamoorstio Party is embar-
rassed with an excess of Presidential tim-
ber. " Blue Jeans " ia in earnest in his
pretentions, and will be disappointed if
his dramatic affectation of honesty and
homespun virtue is not rewarded by
the nomination in 1880. Mr. Hc^'DRIces
lias survived the insidious thrusts
of Mr. Belmont, > the representative
of the Democratic bondholders ; and
VooRHEES thinks that the time has come
when he should receive the second place, at
least, on the national ticket of his party.
These things do not promote harmony in
the Democratic camp. The Bepablicans
are united and hopeful, and in the Congres-
sional canvass this year it is possible that
they may gain one Representative, and elect
ten members where they now have, nine of
the thirteen. The prospect is more en-
couraging because the Democrats since the
passage of the SQver bill have no stock
grievance, and content themselves with a
general protest against the weather, the
fever and ague, and the planetary system.

several weeks'sgo, and this tardy dtaaand for

so inflaential with a misbehaving Congress-

Mr. D0CGLA8 denies that he had had "an
undue allowance of drink" when he skir-
mished with the Sergeant-at-Aims and was
pointedly rebuked by the Speaker. But,
while he complains that the reporters who
described the scene were malioions or de-

and thus avoid the very appearsnoe of evil.
Several Democratic newspapers have re-
marked with bitterness that the Murphy
movement in Washington would help their
party. Mr. Beterly Douolas' semi-peni-
tential attitude very forcibly shows that the
dread of being left at home after the next
Congressioual election is really a more
potential factor in reformation than the
moral suasion of the temperance apostles.
There are encouraging indications that
Germany's mediatory offices may prevent
war. Bismarck is reported as express-
ing an opinion that a congress might yet
meet for the purpose of reviewing the
treaty of San Stefano, provided the powers
would agree to tlie retrocession of Bessa-
rabia, the extension of the Bussian-Asian
frontier to Erzeronm, and to a money in-
demnity to Bussia. These three proposi-
tions are certainly reasonable ; but to con-
sent to their settlement would involve some
slight concession on the part of the English
Government, whose position has so lately
been asserted. A somewhat grotesque view
of the situation at Constantinople is con-
veyed in the report that the Sublime Porte
is preparing to move the seat of Govern-
ment across the Bosphorus to Scutari. It
is very much as if the defenders of the
Turk, in their eagerness to befriend him,
were likely to make his own house too hot
to hold him.
Boating races and aquatic sports will be

The victory of Oxford over Cambridge, on
Saturday, was conceded in advance, and ex-
cited very little enthusiasm at home and
less interest on this side of the water. But
the race between Yale and Harvard, as our
correspondence indicates, will be an ex-
citing one, as the Yale men have the defeat
of last year to retrieve. It anpears that
only one of the Harvard eight is new to the
boat, while five of the Yale crew are fresh
hands in a university crew. This point Will
be eagerly canvassed, pro and con, by the
lovers of the manly sport ; and the race,
though less attractive since it is narrowed
down to two crews, will furnish one of the
earliest spectacles to be enjoyed by oars-
men andamatgnrs.
COyGEESS ASD THE FUTURE OF
PASTIES.
The report that the prevailing desire
among Democratic Senators is to secure an
adjournment of Congress not later than the
middle of June is almost too good to be
true. Besides, there would still remain wide
margin for doubt as to the ability of ^e
more sensible of the Senators to influence
in any material degree the action of their
party brethren of the House. Certain it is,
however, that the best possible thing that
can happen for the country is the early
close of a session which has thus far con-
tributed greatly to the retardation of confi-
dence and the consequent injury of finan-
cial and business interests.
The assigned motive is less creditable
than the alleged proposition. A Journal usu-
ally well informed states on the authority
of its Washington correspondent that the
Democrats in both houses begin to realize
the strength and significance of the Na-
tional Party and its probable effect upon
their own fortunes. They are anxious to
study on the spot the hidden springs of the
movement, and to devise plans for averting
the defection from their ranks which its suc-
cess implies. Mr. Voorhees' declaration
that it will draw off as many Republicans
as Democrats may not be incorrect so far
as the West is concerned, but the consola-
tion it affords is not substantial. Xor is the
eagerness of Congressional Democrats
to make an early start in the work of the
Fall campaign, with especial reference to
the necessity of counteracting the efforts
of the Nationals, at all reassuring. Of the
two conceivable methods of breaking do*n
the new organization the Western Demo-
crats are likely to choose the worst. Unless
the Republican managers are aiBicted with
Judicial blindness, they will intelligently
and fearlessly array the truths of sound
finance against the fallacies of an inflated
and debased currency ; they will stake their
party's future upon fidelity to the public
faith, whether as regards national or local
obligations. They will not make peace
with repudiation nor pander to current
Communistic notions, whatever the conse-
quence in particular districts.
A different course may be looked for on
the part of the Western Democrats. Hav-
ing discarded the best traditions of their
party, they are not unwilling to commit
themselves to anything that will bring them
votes. The Toledo Convention, which
formulated the joint demands of the various
factions now forming a united and powerful
organization, did not urge any demand at
variance with the views of Mr. VoORHSES.
He anticipated all of them. How nearly
Voorhees comes to be the type of the dom-
inating forces in Western Democracy the
action of the Illinois Convention has shown.
A body containing but one man honest
enough to speak against the financial, here-
sies of the day, will not be very scrupulous
when party exigencies dictate the concilia-
tion of the Nationals. Indeed, taldngtheWest
as a whole, trifiing alterations are needed
in the latest formal uttei-ances of the De-
mocracy to bring, them into general har-
mony with the principles and schemes of
the new party. But as between the Demo-
crats and the Nationals, the advantages are
on the side of the latter. Their ehance of
obtaining recruits is greater than the chance
of the Democrats for the reason that their
demands, however abominable and danger-
ous, represent convictions, while those of
the Democrats represent only demagogism.
Of what value are Voorhees' professions —
the Nationals will ask — when on the occa-
sion of a conflict between the Pacific Bail-
road monopoly and the Government he
iMokatad'kis Communism aad rvttHmttbm J
mono^lyT • The quety is one of many,
^te aa pertinent, that expose the hypoc-
risy of the noisy Deinoeratie 'leaden who^
for the Mjce of votes, are ready to outbid
^the Nationals in tiie next oampaiQi. Now,
as the Nationals represent a large portioii
of the Western people, they have only to
stand Arm to win over the average Demo-
cratic politician. . The hi^er his party bids
for National votes the more it strengthens
the National cause. We may therefore ex-
pect next Fall to find either a general im-
derstanding between the Democrats in the
Western States and the Nationals, or so
close a resemblance between their plat-
forms in all that relates to currency and the
public credit, that they will together consti-
tute the common enemy of the Republican
policy as it will be if Republican leaders
do their duty.
It is necessary to look at these (Contin-
gencies a little in advance because Eastern
people underrate the breadth, depth, and
force of Western opinion in favor of repudi-
ation and inflation, and because there is a
too general disposition to assume that with
the accomplishment of resumption next
January the financial peril will end. The
fulfillment at that time of the nation's
pledge will amount to little unless we
have some assurance that resump-
tion can be nmintained on a gold
basis. Under the most favorable
conditions, the question must remain
open until the operation of the present re-
monetization law has been fairly tested.
The diffioxtlty is in obtaining any such as-
surance. Mr. Sherman's mind is haz}^.
Striving zealously, as he undoubtedly is to
accumulate gold, his opinion in regard to
the reissue of legal-tender notes up to a cer-
tain limit, after they have been technically
redeemed, shows how signally he fails to
comprehend the true function of the Treas-
ury, and the true mode of rendering specie
payment permanent.- Uncertainty upon
this and other equally essential points will
continue as long as Congress is in session ;
and its duration afterward will depend upon
the morale and success of the Republican
Party in the Fall. At present we know that
the Senate may accompany the retention of
the Resumption act with changes that would
be fatal to its efficacy. The Committee on
Finance has been credited with a determi-
nation to report against or otherwise to
stifle the House bill repealing the act. We
now learn that while the committee is toler-
ably unanimous against repeal, it is nearly
evenly divided in regard to a proposition
abrogating " so much of the Resumption
act as requires the retirement and cancella-
tion of 80 per cent, of legal tenders for ad-
ditional circulation issued to national
banks." Another proposition having a simi-
lar chance of adoption aims at fixing the
permanent circulation of legal tenders at a
figure above the $300,000,000 which Mr.
Sherman would keep outstanding. The
second proposal, in fact, differs only in de-
gree from the Secretary's suggestion. Its
&llacy is not greater than his own. The
effect of the two changes would be an un-
mistakable inflation of legal-tender notes,
and a serious increase of the difficulties at-
tendant upon resumption. From risks of
this sort there will be no escape as long as
Congress i^mains in session. Whether the
next Congress shall arrest the tendencies
now so potent, or shall develop them still
further in their application to legislation, is
a question which the Republican Party
should be prepared to consider. It is not a
question that will solve itself satisfactorily.
THE CBINESB PUZZLE.
■ Senator Booth's assertion that if in New-
York, Iowa, or Georgia there were 100 Chi-
nese male adults to every 150 voters, the
Mongolian problem would be regarded as
supremely important, cannot be gainsaid.
That problem is everywhere regarded as
highly important now ; but some of the
chief obstacles to its solution have been
supplied by Californians themselves. At
the threshold of any solution must be trust-
worthy facts and figures ; and we have yet
to find any two Pacific Coast Congressmen,
or any two champions of the Caucasian race,
whether Congressmen or not, agreeing even
as to the numbers of the Mongolian invad-
ers. Though these numbers ought to be
ascertainable with approximate accuracy,
we find exaggeration in place of computa-
tion, while the figures mostly in vogue are
figures of rhetoric.
Not long ago. Representative Page sent
the President, for his instruction, a letter
which said that "there are now in California
more than lq0,000 of these [Chinese] peo-
ple." Congressman Meade had shortly be-
fore, in a public address at Saratoga, de-
clared that "the Chinese population of
California is fairly estimated at from 150,-
000 to 200,000." Senator Saroest re-
cently estimated the number at 108,000.
But Mr. Booth, whose late speech is mod-
erate and excellent throughout, though
strongly anti-Chinese, says that there are
"ninety-odd thousand Chinese in California."
With such margins in figures, and equal
varieties in assertions of fact, Con-
gress moves with natural caution towasd
breaking the treaty with Chins. The census
of 1870 gave the number of Chinese as
63,254 forthe entire United States, 49,310
Chinese and Japanese being accredited to
California. The arrivals have since been
large, but there have also been departures.
Some Congressmen treat the arrivals with
liberal, but the departures with niggardly,
mention. Yet last year, in San Francisco,
with a total of 9,906 arrivals from China
and Japan, (about 6,000 fewer, by the
way, than the year before, and over 8,000
fewer than the year before that,} there
were 7,852 departures to China and Japan,
making a net surplus of only 2,054. Mr.
Booth has just said in the Senate, using
the same emphatic phrase at two different
stages of his speech, that the Chinese do
not increase in numbers here through mar-
riage, as other immi^ants increase ; "they
have no families ; they are recruited from
abroad." In that ease, last year the Chinese
increase must have been nothing at all, for
at the average mortality rate their deaths
would more than off-set the set increase
from immigration.
We find no such arrest or retrogade last
year in the vast growth of the white race in
California. Examining the tables of Chinese
Custom-house arrivals, we see a decrease of
several thousand in the srrivals of 1876
from the arrivals of 1875, and a still greater
decrease in those of 1877 from those of
1876. But the San Francisco CkronieU,
■t«h»tBai«nwg*t iIbs ywirk 4«d«r«d ttat
;tiie recent growth of that city had lieen
prodigious — ^that leom estimates made by
the eolleotors of information for the City
Directory, it had increased to 301,020 in
the Spring of 1877'; and accordingly the
CKroniele estimated the popnlation last Jan-
nary at 330,00a Bat thehi^est estimate
of the Chinese popnlation a year ago last
Jannary was only about 32,000. If the
test of the State has increased porportion-
ally with the growth attributed to San
Francisco. California, which had 660,427
inhabitants in 1870, excluding tribal In-
dians, must now have nearly a million.
Vx. Paoe informs the President that the
male Chinese " equal in number the entire
voting population of the State." Mr. Booth
gives a ratio of 1 po to 150. Such compar-
isons of the great majority of the Chinese
popnlation with the small minority of the
white population are striking; but the
figures look a little less ominous when we
compare a Chinese total of 32,000 with a
total population of nearly or quite 300,b00
in San Francisco, and a Chinese total of
90,000, with a total population of, say,
900,000 in California.
We do fj^t aim to break the force of the
true figures, but only to show that in ease
the question of how far immigration shall
be impeded comes up in making a new
treaty, it will not do to accept the loose
declaration that the chief growth of popu-
lation in California is Chinese growth, and
that the Pacific shore is already becoming
"rapidly MongoUanized." Mr. Page told
the President that " about one-fifth " of his
150,000 Chinese in California, or 30,000,
" are females brought here for immoral
purposes ;" Mr. Booth says that one-ninth
of his ninety-odd thousand, or about 10,000
are females, and the report of the Cali-
fornia Senate Committee puts the number of
females much below Mr. Booth's estimate.
Nobody can insist that California should be
forced to bear a burden that can be honora-
bly and justly lightened ; but the first step
toward lightening it should include a trust-
■yyorthy account of what it is. The very fact,
brought out so strongly by Senator Booth,
that "the Chinese in California have no
families — among them the marriage relation
is practically unknown," must have a de-
cided effect onthe question of Mongolian in-
crease, as compared with the increase of the
white race in California.
We have already said that the joint reso-
lution for treaty revision Just referred to
the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
is the most creditable — indeed, the only cred-
itable— method proposed this Winter for
restricting Chinese immigration in the fu-
ture. Honorable in its mode, of operation,
it does rot begin, as some members desired
to begin, by violating the existing compact
with China. Alleged violations of a treaty
by one nation are often followed by an open
disregarding of it by the other ; but no
snch vioLttions of the Burlingame treaty
on the part of China are pretended. Our
national honor is, therefore, coneemel to
alter it only by mutual consent, even if the
process does '' take two years." as the advo-
cates of "more vigorous" measures com-
plain ; and meanwhile Congress will do well
to discountenance the proposed breaches
of faith contained in anti-Chinese bills like
those of Mr. Lcttrell. China has paid
since the date of the treaty nearly
$900,000 indemnity for acts of outrage
committed on Americans in that country.
Perhaps, as a preliminary to treaty re-
vision, we may be invited to make pe-
cuniary rensration for some of the cases
of robbery, murder, and incendiarism lately
committed on Chinamen in our land.
t'jCWt^&itiffiJci
SBSATOR MARVIS'S BILL.
Senator Marvts's bill in behalf of pauper
children is a portion of that humane legis-
lation in this State which is an honor
to its civilization. The modem and en-
lightened view in regard to those most un-
fortunate little ones, the offspring of
paupers, is that they should under no cir-
cumstances be allowed to grow up in an
alms-house, under the inevitable influences
of snch an institution. Of all hopeless
victims of human neglect, those are the
most so who have a parentage of pauperism
and crime. Moral evils intensify them-
selves by inheritance. When a reformer
(as is not uncommon in all our States) meets
in a country poor-house with the third gen-
eration of paupers and prostitutes, hie knows
at once that, humanly speaking, the case
is almost beyond any hopeful treatment.
The child is condemned before he begins
his career. The object of all the best mod-
erOf legislation on this subject is to break up
heredity and to utterly change surrounding
circumstances.
By the New-York law of 1873, one of the
most salutary reforms ever attempted in any
commundty was inaugurated here. No alms-
house was permitted to retain a pauper child
between- the ages of 3 and 16, unless he
was hopelessly defective, but was compelled
to place ,him in asylums or private fami-
lies. The child of a pauper was not to be
held in law a pauper, and the inheritance
of pauperism, and all its attendant evils,
was to be broken. This act of wise human-
ity, under the intelligent supervision of the
State Board of Charities, rescued thousands
' of innocent children from lives of shame
and idleness ; and will continue in coming
years to work in this happy direction. It is
a law which should be imitated in every
State, until it can be said that nowhere in
the Union is a child brought up in an alms-
house.
Senator Marvin's bill, which has already
passed the Senate and is before the House,
makes some improvements on the original
law in that it removes children as y^ung as
2 years from the poor-houses, and removes
all children — the sick, idiotic, blind, deaf
and dumb, and paralytic — from the charge
of such institutions. But in the debate in
the Senate the Roman Catholic
members appended an amendment,
wUoh, while fair in appearance,
may give occasion for much trouble and
confusion afterward. This provides that
children may only be . transferred to such
asylums, or insUtntions "as are governed
or controlled by-officers or persons of the
same religions faith as the parents of snch
children, as far as is practicable." When
it is remembered that probably seven out of
ten of the JMupers of the State are nomin-
ally Roman Catholics, it will be seen how
largely such an amendment would throw
the administration of pauper children in
New- York into the hands of one sect. One
institution for such Chilean near this City,
tiM "I^tettenr." alwady draws from aia
Jvt-rir ^'. ^■'fc^^'f I ■^•>^
•^
tax-payers <wha are mainly Protestant)
some $225,000 per annum, on a pro rata
allowance of over $100 per capita, while
the Legislature has jnst allotted it $50,-
000 more in the Supply bill.
This amendment woold add great num-
bers to those for whom it draws publie
allowance, and wonld tend to concentrate
too many children in one institution. But
in remote oounfry districts such an amend-
ment wonld occasion most annoyance.
Often the only asylum within hundreds of
miles is under Protestant charge, ^d the
children must be sent far away at great ex-
pense or the law be violated. The " de-
fective " children wonld otherwise be trans-
ferred to the State asylums for the idiots,
blind, deaf and dumb, and the like, where
thej' would have the best of treatment.
Now, such children must be transfenbed
to the 'hospital wards of Catholic
institutions, often not under the wisest
management. In this City, for instance, a
crippled or ruptured pauper child could not
be sent to those excellent asylums, the
" Orthopoedic" and that for "the ruptured
and crippled," but must be placed in the
sick ward of the " Protectory." There are
no abuses for which such tea. amendment
might be designed as a remedy. No Cath-
olic has complained of poor children of his
faith being converted in Protestant asy-
lums. The courts and the Poor-house Su-
perintendents are always sufficiently ready
to gratify the religions prejudices of
the poor. It is simply an effort of the
priests to grasp more of our Poor law ad-
ministration. They would keep their hold
upon, and draw public money for, the care of
even the poorest and most ignorant. Both
the State Board and the volunteer Board
for the State Charities oppose this amend-
ment. We trust that the House will strike
it from the bill.
CASHIERED OFFICERS.
There is nothing that an Army of-
ficer dislikes more than he dislikes to
be cashiered. Wbether he is guilty or
innocent makes no difference. In either
case he loses his commission, and is
disgraced in the eyes of the public. Na-
turally, the cashiered officer is indignant,
and cherishes a bitter hostility to the court-
martial which convicted him and the com-
mander who approved his sentence. He is
thus an admirable subject for conciliation.
The President who overrules the finding of
the court-martial, and reinstates him with
back pay, rarely fails to thoroughly concil-
iate him. and in case his sentence was ap-
proved by a former President, it is still always
possible to conciliate him by ordering his case
to be reopened and reviewed. As to the
propriety of thus conciliating cashiered offi-
cers there can be, at the present time, no
difference of opinion. If it is a wise and
Christian act to coneiliato ex-rebal soldiers,
it is equally wise and Christian to conciliate
ex-Federal officers who have been guilty of
nothing worse than stealing, drunkenness,
or mere disobedience of orler.^. This prin-
ciple is fully recognized by our conciliatory
President. It is only a little while ago that
he commuted the sentence of dismissal from
the service which was imposed upon Lieut.
Wetherill, for various acts of dishonesty,
to a brief suspension from com-nand ; and
at nearly the same time he entirely set aside
the sentence of Capt. Campbell, and rein-
stated that larcenous officer without even a
reprimand. Thus, two officers who were
undoubtedly cherishing un-Christian feel-
ings-toward those who had found them guil-
ty, were oonoiliated to sush an extent that
they would probably have joined in singing
hymns at the White House every Sunday
night had Mr. Hates invited them to do s o.
Mr. Frrz John Porter, who was cash-
iered many years ago after having been
fotmd guilty of disobelienoeof orders on the
battle-field, and of refusal to march his
corps to the support of his commanding
officer and the rest of the Army of the Po-
tomac, would not be the intelligent man
that he unquestionably is if he did not
avail himself of the services of a good and
kind President to procure a reversal of his
sentence and his restoration to his former
rank. Mr. Hates having clearly shown
that the restoration of cashiered officers is
an important part of his policy, Mr. Porter
hastens to give him a new opportunity
tor carrying this beneficent policy into
effect, and the President has already issued
an order directing a board to examine the
new evidence which Mr. Porter asserts
that he is ready to offer in his defense. It
is difficult to imagine how any new evidence
is to affect the justice of Mr. Porter's sen-
tence. That he disobeyed his commanding
officer's orders has been thoroughly estab-
lished, and even if he is able to show that a
larger force of the enemy was. in his front
than Gen. Pope imagined, he cannot there-
by alter the fftct that he disobeyed Pope's
orders to go into action. It is the first duty
of a soldier to obey orders. Mr. Porter
was ordered to engage the enemy. He
claims that had he obeyed the order his
corps would have been destroyed. That is
to say, he disobeyed Gen. Pope's order be-
cause he thought that it was an unwise one.
It is understood that his " new evidence "
is introduced to prove that the order was
unwise, but if he is successful in so prov-
ing he will not justify his disobedience ht
his superior officer's orders. Very possibly
he believes that Gen. Pope, Secretary Stan-
ton, President Lincoln, and all the mem-
bers of the court-martial which convicted
him, were actuated by i>er8onal hostility
to him. Nevertheless, the fact of his diso-
bedience of orders on the battle-field re-
mains, and he is -well aware that in any
European Army an officer fonnd guilty of
the offense with which he was charged
would have been shot.
All this, however, will not injure Mr.
Porter's case, now that he has succeeded
in having it reopened. Mr. Hates' policy
of conciliation is intended not for the
innocent but for the goUty. He did not
commute the sentence of Lieut. Wetherill,
nor set aside the findings of the courts-
martial in the ease of Capt. Campbell, be-
cause these officers were innocent. The
kind, good President donbtless said to him-
self that the very fact that these men were
guilty must increase their mental suffering
and their need of conciliation. What Mr.
Porter should do in order to prove how
much he needs the soothing effects of con-
ciliation, and to awaken the Presidential
sympathies in his behalf, isto admit that he
was guilty of all the charges that were made
against him and to make his. guilt appear in
the moat Claris* Udrti TSm obieet is to be
£^i
reinstated, 'irith or without back pay. The
I simplest aiid surest way to gain this end is
to convince the President that he was justly
cashiered and that he cannot feel Mndly
toward all men unless the findings of the
original ^eonrt-aaartial are set aside.
If Congress was really anidous to give a
hearty support to the Presidential policy, it
-Would promptly p&ss a law reinstating all
casliiered oiflcers. After which the Presi-
dent wonld have time to s^ve his attention
to counterfeiters and other violators of
Federal statutes, and to conciliate with a
full pardon every man who has suffered
inconvenience in consequence of the action

Some of the comments of the British provin-

not object to it so much as they object to her. One
of the Journals gravely 4pubt« the propriety of
England receiving a pagan monnment associated

regards it as unbecoming a Christian land to set up
in Its metropolis a relic of ancient barbariam and
heathenism. A third believes that a national monu-
ment commemorating the triumphs of civilization in
Great Britain wonld be infinitely better than the
Needle. These critics, however are nnanimons in
their eondemnatlou of Cleopatra, whom they de-
nounce in unmeasured terms. She certainly was not
I a pattern of morals, although she was not quite so
bad as they represent her. She was not utterly
abandoned, altogether shameless, a common wanton,
as they portray her. History has its rights as well
as their virtuous indignation. Her fliat hnaband,
Ptolemy XH, who was also her brother, (it was the
custom of the country and the time for brothers and
sisters to intermarry,) was bestowed upon her by her
father for reasons of State, and her second hus-
band, Necteros, likewise a brother, was only nomi-
nally a husband, being bnt 7 yean old. She seems
to have been entirely loyal to Cscsar during his life.
When 8h9 met Antony her first lover had been dead
some years, and she and her second lover destroyed
themselves almost simultaneously. Manr historic
women have been far worse than Cleopatrss and
yet sustained a much better reputation. It was
her misfortune to he so Uinstrions, through her
gifts and fascinations, that crimes and vices have
been put upon her by ehronS'lers and poets, espe-
cially the latter, that she is in so wise responsible
for. The stories about Pompey and Octavius. after-
ward Augustus CsBsar, and herself have uo more
foundation than have many other scandals attached
to her name. Whatever her shortcomings, the British
papers need not fear that the Needle will do England
any ethical harm in its transplanting in the metropo-
lis. Their own moral atmosphere, it must be con-
fessed, is not of the purest, and if the Needle can
stand London, London ought to be able to stand the
Needle. Cleopatra was not at all what she should
have been, but the associations connected with her
name, while they may endanger the pure prindples
of Black Wall, will not be liliely to injure the com-
munity at large.
The advantages and disadvantages of the
French Academy have been variously discussed for
more than 200 years. It has Deen censured as much
as praised hy Frenchmen themselves, partially, no
doubt, from the narrowness and prejudice wh&h
have been shown in regulating its membership.
Whatever Its merits, its usef ulne.% in some respectF,
may be questioned. The Academy has bien for
many years preparing two dictionaries — one a sec-
ond edition of its ori-rinal diftinnary, pabllshed In
1G94. after half a century of debate up; n the words
to be inserted : the other a historical dictionary.
Th* first had recently advanced no further than let-
ter D, and the second, containing A-B. issued the
initial number 17 years since, and has issued no
other number. During those years, Littrfi. the phi-
lologist, completed, with verv little assistance, his
excellent dictionary^, which includes all that, and
something more than, the two Academy dictionaries
propose to Accomplish. Notwithstanding this — per-
haps on account of this — he was refused admission
to the Academy in 1363, and was elected eight years
later only after violent opposition. The Academy
seems determined to reoeat Itsell^ and to be con-
sistent in its prejudice and cOntractednesL
It is not generally known that John G. Whit-
tier, in his early life, when he was 6nt 23. sbc-
ceeded George D. Prentice us editor of the New-
England Weekly Besiew, published at Hartford,
Conn. Prentice had been called to Kentucky to
write a campaign life of Henry Cflay, with a view to
putting Clay again before the country as a Preri-
dential candidate, and having written the life he was
chosen toedltthe Louisville Journal, founded thefol-
lowing year. Whittier never met Prentice, bnt hav-
ing seen the Review, was so pleased with it that he
sent some communications to it, and they were pub-
lished with laudatory comments. He became a fre-
quent contributor, and on the retirement of Pren-
tice was invited, at bis request, by the pub ishers to
succeed bim. Whittier, when he received the letter,
was at work on his fathers farm, near Haverhill,
Mass.' He has said. In alluding to the circumstance,
" I could not have been more surprised if I had been
asked to assume the place and power of the Great
Khan of Tartary."
The difference between the verdict of the pub-
lic and the judgmentof publishers was well-iUnstrated
in Mark Twain'a Innoeenta Abroad, which was
offered in manuscript to nearly every publisher of
prominenee in Philadelphia, Boston, and Nejr-Tork,
andnot oneof them would undertake to issue the
book. Some of them thought it was funny: but
none ofjthem thoi^ght it would sell. The author had
got tired of offetiog his matter, and had half a mind
to commit it to the flames, when an acquuntance
volunteered to send it to a subscription-house in
Hartford. After long deliberation and much heelta-
tion, the house decided to print the volume,
which, including pirated and all other editions, has
probably acid, up to the present, fully 250,000
copies. It iCppears very strange that any publisher
should doubt whether The Innoeejitt would sell, for,
whatever opinion may be held of the, work, there
wonld seem to be no question as to its popularity.
Bryant has a rival as to age and journalistic
service in the pexaon of Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale,
who was bom at Newport, N. H., In the early part of
1795, and began to edit in Btuton, in her thirty-third
year, The Ladiee^ Magazine, a monthly, afterward
united with The Lady's Book, of Philadelphia. She
continued to be its literary editor until very recently,
having served an apprenticeship on what was sub-
stantially the same publication for nearly half a cen-
.tnry, which is almost as long as Bryant has been con-
nected with the Evening Poet It is said that during
her 50 years of editorial work she hod scarcely any
considerable interruption by reason of absence from
her post, which is mora than can be olBrmei of the
venerable joimaUst of this City. She ia hia junior

The late Jacob Little, regarded in his day as
one of the shrewdest and most perspi»eious oper-
ators in Wall-street, had no faith in the ttrlegraph
when it was first tntrodaeed. Somebody asked him
in 1846 to subscribe for some stock for putting a
line between here and Boston. He replied that it
was all nonsense ; thax it would he money thrown
away; thathewouldnot subscribe a dollar. Tears
after the person who had asked Little to subscribe
met the banker. He had then lost most of his for-
tune, and, referring to the past interview, admitted
his error of judgment, saying It was the great mis-
take of his life. Be added: "I have mode many
mistakes, but it is too late to rectify them now." A
few months later he retired from the Street, and died
from softening of the brmin.

CA2f STATE DEBTS BE ESrOBCMDf
A recent letter to the Nation upon this mb^
ject is interesting. Ineidentally, because wrtttea
from KaithviHe, Tenn.. with especial refetnei
to the default of that State, but mainly beeaosi
suggesting a bold and direct plan for eaitlag
the knot of legal disability. Beginning with
tile remark that the State of TennasMe owes to,
citizen* of this State aevaral millions on State'
bonds already or aoon to be repudiated, the
writer urges that New-Tork can wield her osns
Statehood on behalf of her citizens by taking;
the Tennessee bonds in exchange for her own, I
or else bv undertaking to collect them for ■
commission ; that ' ' on agent to whom commer-
cial paper i* transferred for purposes of eoIle»
tion may sue in his own name ;" that it would
be entirely practicable to moke some arrange-
ment whereby the State should sue, in her own
name, the State of Tennessee In the Snvreme
Court, and that there would be no dif&culty in
getting judgment.
Originally, the suability of a State fay any
plaintiS, except its own citizens or its subordi.
nate divisions, was plainly enough recognized
by the Constitution, and original jurisdiction
was given the Supreme Court in all eaaes wher*
a State was a party. Yet the question of Stat*
sovereignty was raised in the Chisholm eaae^
[2 Dallas, 419,] and was decided Feb. IS.
1793, Chief^Iustice Jat pronouncing abeurd
the doctrine that while a part of the population
of-a State can be sued the whole population col-
lectively cannot be ; aeeordingly the defendant
State of Georgia was cited to apoeor and answer
the complaint. Snch was the popular hostility,
however, provoked by this enunciation oit a
plain, constitutional provision, that in the very
next month the well-known eleventh amend<
ment was rushed through Congress, and, after
five years' time, obtained the full needed ratiS.
cation. It pnfvides that " the judicial poirei
of the United States shall not b3 construed to
extend to any suit in l&w or equity commenced
or prosecuted against one of the United States
by citizens of another State, or by eitiseiii
or subjects of any foreign State." In what
condition did this leave the subject of juris-
diction? Section 2. article 3, of theConstlta-
tion, enumerating to what "the judicial powei
of the United States ~ shall extend, specifies,
among other tb ings, ' ' amtroversite beiteten two .
'or more States ; between a State and citizen* of
snotherState;between citizens of diilereatStatai
* * * andbetweenaState, orthecitizensthere-
of, and foreign States, citizens, or subjects."
The eleventh amendment abrogated the aeoood
and the lost of these specifications, bnt left tb<
others untouched. Suits by individual bond*
holders against States were not foreseen, prob
ably, for State debts had then hardly begtm tc
have an esistenee ; the offense given, by the
Chisholm case, to the idea of State sovereignty,
we must presume, was irrespective of the char,
act^of the suit; hence, although the wording
of the amendment is strangely narrow, it Is
not a far-fetched inference from the circum-
stances that the inte tion tros to put an end t4
calling States to accodnt before courts — to put
into a coustitutloxial provision tl^s conslusion:
'■ A State shall not be sued." Bnt If that was
the intent, it failed of distinct expresdon, and
the amendment, beins^ specific cannot be eon-
straed to cover more than it says. It ^d pro-
hibit two kinds of suit, but limited the suab^tj
of States without destroying it.
Under the Constitution, a State may sue aa
other State, and the Aotion's correspondent is,
therefore, correct In saying that New-York can
sue Tennessee; in such a case the Suprem*
Court would have original jurisdiction, but
whether there would be no difficulty in obtain-
ing a judgment is less certain. Supposing
the judgment obtained, the praecieil question
is that of collection, and the writer dispose* of
this bv arguing that the court may direct the
Xiegis!ature, by writ of Mandamns, to lovy and
collect the necessary tax: that Congress mi^rhl
enact that, if the Legislature disobey the wri^
the Supreme Court might appoint as many
special Commissioners as should be needed to
assess and collect the tax ; that these Commit
sioners might be empowered to resort for in-
formation to the books of the revenue otScen
of the State ; and that, after the tax had bees
thus ascertained, and bad been assessed, "each
tax-payer's part of It would be a debt due from
him to the creditor State, payment of which
might be m^e enforceable by the process of
the court or by suit in the local Federal court,
the details of this being easily arraarxd."
As bos been shown in the digests of law on
this subject heretofore given in these columns,
and proven experimentally, to their painful sat-
isfaction, by many bondholders, there is no diffi-
culty whatever in obtaining recognition of debti
in the courts, but the almost invariable result
of suits has been a recognition which effected
nothing. Hence, assuming that the plaintiff
State, in the course proposed, would get iti
judgment, as the individual plaintiff ha* got
it against municipalities, the practical questaoB
is. What will the State do with it! How will
she get her money out of the debtor State t
In easei of a municipoUty, if the debtor eon b>
law have property subject to execution, the
regular course is to issue process therefor. As-
suming that the procedure against a Stati would
follow the same line, does a State possess proper-
ty liable to seizure 7 The taxes and revenues of
municipal corporations are not subject ta
seizure in the Treasurv or in transit to it.
Although some States have general statute*
under which such corporations are liable to
garnishment, the general drift is that, on
principle, they are not ao liable. In some States
it is held that the private property of mimieiDal
corporations — such as they hold for profit and
charged with no public trusts or uses — may b *
sold on execution. Hence, making the bold as.
sumption that the Supreme Court wonld issue
execution against a State, everything except it*
revenues — ^which of course must be held exempl
bytherule juststated — wouldbefound tocon*ist
of property used or owned for public ptirpoaes,
such as public buildings, and it might be di&
cult to exelude from this category railroads,
public lands, or even lionds held in sinking
ftmds, the theory of exemption being that the
instmmentalitie* for perfonnini( the pubU<
*ervlce, for which the commonwealth exists,
cannot be touched on oceotmt of any Hoima
But perhaps the court would issue, as original
instead of secondary process, the maiidaMiu
commanding the Legislature to levy a tax, and
in that way the test would come. Whether the
Legislature refused to obey, or whether, aftai
making the levy, the tax ofBeers refused to col-
lect or the people refused to pay, the result
would, just the same, be 'the getting ready for
the next step. This, as suggested, i* to b* th«
pas*age of a law by Cougre*s authorizing the
court to appoint special Commissioner* to
take up the work of the tax officers of the State,
using, if necessary, the latter'* bookc
Assuming that such a law could be obtained,
the court wonld not exercise the granted an-
thority. If following tho course of its already
recorded decisions in the well-known cases ol

In the latter cose the deciaion was that tiia
court cannot undertake the delicate fuaotion
of taxation, but can only direct the proper
officers to make a levr. The exception to this
ruling, by which, in the ea*e of Supervisors nt.

Thisprocess is Identical with the first steps
cacgested In respect to State debts, and the ad-
T«rse decision upon it seems eonelnslTe against
the idea of makingeach tax-payer, individually,
ZBsponsIble to the creditor Sute for his propoj^
tlonate share. Having thns traversed the plan
proposed, step by step, we reach the conclusion
that It would be ineffectual, and that there is no
legal procedure whichwill wring the money from"
recusant public bodies — at least, from States.
I^wsibly thers might be some practical gain in
the moral statiu of the debt, from such a square
publication of It as a demand by a State upon a
Btate would make. On the other hand, itshould
not be fttrgotten— although this plan seems to
target it — that a State suit would bring up the
laeae of State sovereignty and rights in the most
- pronounced and irritating manner, and that it
would put Into question the very essence of the
rdationahip between and limitation? of Federal
B&d State authority. Wise statesmanship would
be alow to provoke such a question, especially
under the present circumstances.
Is there, then, no available remedy t There
Is one, which is effective, though indirect, and
lias been left untried. It is public opinion con-
centrated. TTnquestlonUbly, as regards the
cause of the Southern Confederacy in Europe,
the telection of its President from the only State
then having a smirched reputation was a capi-
tal blunder. Now the citizen of Mississippi. Ten-
oeaaee, Minnesota, or of any other repudiating
State, should be put in question everywhere on
account of his residence. If he Is made to feel
that his own credit is included with that of his
State, and that his residence is a prima faeU
reason why he should be dealt with, pending
better acquaintance, as a less safe debtor than
one from a neighboring State, he will begin to
deiSie escape from under the cloud. Minnesota
ha* repudiated her ]ust debts, most needlessly
and shamelessly. If the Minnesotian is made to
feel himself discredited thereby, he will begin to
Inquire whether it pays to evade taxation for
debts because they are not enforceable at law.
The way to coerce defaulting States is to openly
refuse to treat them and their citizens as on the
same plane which their honester neighbor* oc-
enpy. _

The changing fortunes of TJingHuh dram-
atists offer to the industaions in all' profes-
sions a sound moral lesson of perseverance.
Some two years ago, after going iq> like a
rocket, Mr. Gilbert came down like the stick.
He was outside every London theatre. - By and
by he eame to the fore again, and a few months
ago he monopolized a eouple.of theatres with
farcical comedy and comic opera, and XAA fair
to be equally successful with drama. He is an
author of resource, and he is aggressive in his
boldness. All he lacks in regard to the higher
walks of the drama is heart, and attempting to
reach Parnassus without It he has once again
fallen to the ground. Nothing could be more
self-sufScieut, not to say bigoted, than his
treatment of the failure of "Ne'er-do-
weeL'' He declined to acknowledge the
public verdict, except to make the excuse of
failure a reason fo£ renaming his piece, and
presenting it in a new fotm. " The Vaga-
bond" is the result, and the result is a play far
weaker and more unnatural than ''Ne'er-do-
weeL" But Mr. Qilbert has an original way of
his own in dealing with managers. He Insists
upon his pieces being played a certain number
of nights under any circumstances ; snd •' The
Vagabond," therefore, maintains its place in the
Olympic bills. Mr. Gilbert is going to play the
part of Barlequin once more at the Gaiety, for
the benefit of the survivors of the unfortunate
Eurydice. This same calamity gives several
parties of amateurs an excuse for com-
ing before the public, and St. George's Hall
has, therefore, a long pi^gramme of novel-
ties in preparation. Mr. P. C. Bnmand for
several years appeared to have dropped out of
the theatrical world. He was unsuccessful as a
playright, and he did not get on as a manager.
He brought out George Clarke, the American
actor, at the Opera Comique in a new comedy.
The piece did not suit Clarke. It was equally
objectionable to the public. Mr. Bumandmoved
to the Holborn Theatre, and, hitting the roller-
skate mania, produced a comedy, " On the
Rink," but a genuine rink opened next doorand
killed his imitation of reality. Rest followed
defeat. Burnand is once more in the front rank
of dramatic authors. His comedies and farces
are successful, and he has important commis-
sions in hand. He is a bright, capable, clever
v^n and de.serves his present popularity. But
rae most lemarkable instances of personal re-
vival is that of Mr. Wills. When he " came a
cuffer" at Drury-Iane with "England In the
Days of Charles II.," be was given over by friend
and foe. His work was utterly bad, his con-
struction being too sillv for criticism. Hardly
had we laid his dead reputation in a speedily-
dug grave, and covered it over with green sods
wet with crocodile tears, when the fertile Irish-
man rose again. "Jane Shore," rejected of
every London manatrer, came to London from
the Provinces, and drew the populace. It is a
poor play, but there is a splendid snow scene,
which is a rare example of stage effect and
managerial skill. While it is running,
out comes " Olivia," by the same author,
at the Court Theatre, and Mr. Wills
is rebaoilitated. Buucicault called Wills'
"Charles 1." a play in four attitudes. "Olivia"
is similar in idea and treatment It is not a
drama in the general acceptation ; it is a poem
put upon thestage in so manv tableaux beauti-
fully mounted and admirably acted. The sub-
ject is the episode of Olivia's love and betrayal
in The Vicar of WakeAetd. Miss Terry, in the
title rflie, has captured every critic. She is
wonderful. French art and English directness
are combined in her admirable style. Mr.
Vezin. as the Vicar, is artistic, but he lacks
sympathy. Mr. Hare does not play. He has
preferrfjdto attend to his business in dirrcting
the stage arrangements and conducting the re-
hearsals. " Olivia' is received on ' all
hands with the warmest appro\aL Mr.
Wills, tberefore. fills the Princess' and the
the Court Theatres with enthusia.stic audiences ;
and a third house is to oj en with another of his
wotks. Two or three years ago, when Miss
Fowler presided over the fortunes of the Olym-
pic, Wills wrote "Nell Gynnt" for ner. Soon
afterward she separated herself from the thea-
tre and married Mr. Pemberton. dnce or twice
she has made efforts to return to the stage, but
as she is a clever, useful, independeni woman,
and married, her chances are limited. She has,
therefore, taken ihe Koyaity Theatre, where she
will produce Wills' story of " Pretty Nellv."
The author, 1 hear, hns treated history in this
instance just as be always does, without the
smallest regard lor facts or tradition. Mr.
Leathes, the defendant in the Viner-Stirling
action, is to play King Charles. The theatre
ba-4 been redecorated during Eate Sautley's oc-
cupation. It may take some time, however, to
purify it from the nasty reminiscences of " La
Marjolsne." Miss Fowler should make a good
manageress. She will certainly play Nelt
Gurjfnne with a rare appreciation of the comedy
features of the character. The gift of tender-
ness and pathetic power has been denied to her.
should she be successful, Mr. Wills' resurrection
will be eminently complete. He is an odd, eccen-
tric person. Only a genius dare go about un-
washed and in old clothes, as Wills often does.
He sat in the Lyceum stalls on the first night of
"Louis XI. " in an ulster, and he will discard
dress clothes on the most formal occasions. He
is a novelist of some reputation ; and as a por-
trait printer he has few equals in portraying
the artless grace of childhood.
New dramas are In course of rehearsal by
Tom Taylor aud Paul Merrit. The first piece
is to be produced on Saturday night at the St.
James'. " Such is the Law" is its title. The
work finds its muon d'etre in the illegality of
marriage with a deceased wife's sister. The
hero marries a woman without knowing she is
the sister of his dead wife, and out of this is
built what is said to be a strong dramatic in-
terest. Mr. Merrit commenced life humbly in
connection with theatres, and uatiljfecently was
only known as a hack dramatist o<^ " the blood
and thunder sehooL" His " Stolen KIsse* "
has, however, brought him into notice, and
his business-like efforts to reform the Druoatle
Authors' Society have commended hitn to the
biotherly eonsidention of Tom Taylor, who
has readily accepted collaboration with him.
Their second play has been accepted at the
Olymi^le. Mr. Henry Neville, the manager of
that house, makes his arrangements a long way
ahead.
Mr. Gladstone has written a letter to a sub-
urban paper in which he calls his opponents
lunaties; and he has just given curious evidence
of his own sanity in a gashing letter to Mr. J.
L. 'Toole. It was after be had seen the new
farcical comedy, "A Fool and His Money." In
his letter of eoDgiatnlation to the popolar come-
dian, he asks: "When shall I have toe pleasure
of seeing yon under my roof 1" By thi way,
among the capital stories told of Toole, there is
one wnich (unless in some forgotten moment 1
have told it) has not yet appeared in print.
"Toole is Coming" and "Dear«r than Life"
irere gummed labels which Toole's agents were
in the habit of sticking about wherever tl^
could during his provincial tours. These adver-
tisements used to nun up on the baeksof letters,
in railway ears, in bars; at the itastry eook's,
everywhere. Johnny Cladie, a clever low come-
dian, was at Bristol, tuUllinga starenracitment,
when the walla blossomed with " Toolels Com-
ing " and " Dearer than Life." Similarly, poets,
doorways, cabs,^ hotel bedrooms were alive with
the tamiliar legend. Mr.. Clarke is not over-
burdened with the capacity to see a joke. It
iras bad enough to have a nvalin the Oeld< but
to meet evidence of the fact everywhere Irri-
tated him beyond endurance. Did he go to be

In the morning when he rose to take hi* bsui

fact that Toole was coming. " Dearer Than

and yellow characters all over him. The " tat-
tooed man," whose aequaintaneel made last year
at Gilmoie's Gaiden, was nowhere, eomtfared
with Johnny Clarke illustrated with Tale's
well-known texts. I have not heard that Johnny
ever " got even" with Toole. I fancy he is too
mild and gentle a man to retaliate. Without
doubt he is one of the cleverest comedians on
the London stage. Perhaps he thinks that
Is a sufficient revenge upon his rival I
notice that Hr. Sothem wHl soon .be
back In England. He and Toole are great
friends and well-known partners in the an and
practice of practical joking. They are talking
of a book by Sothem under the title of Birdt of
a Feather. If this is not one of the clever actor's
newest bits of fun, he will have to arrange with
somebody for pirating, unconsciously, no doubt,
an existing eopyright I don't think the present
owner will be very severe in his terms ; but
Mr. Sothem cannot, without his consent, pub-
lish Birdt of a Feather in England.
The death of the widow of Bosslni brings
out the curious fact that Baron Albert Grant
bought the great composer's posthumous fugi-
tive pieces for $40,000. The Paris .R^aro
thinks he made a bad bargain. It would seem
as if Mr. Grant had touched everything in and
outside of finance. He had the finest gallery
of pictures in London ; he has still one of the
Srettiest houses in the country ; his palace at
iensington. (not yet purchased by Mr. Mackey,
of San Francisco,) is a model of decorative art.
He owns music by Rossini and pictures by
Millais ; he has been praised by Punch ; Tom
Taylor wrote a book for him ; he made the
biggest speech and the longest for a laymalt in
the history of forensic oratory; he was proprie-
tor of the JEeho ; Vanity Fair published his
portrait ; he sat in parliament and gave art
presents to the nation ; but he fought the Time»,
and then let in upon himself a flood of litiga-
tion from which he may never get free. The
other day 40 writs were issued against him in
re the Emma Mine, and yet on the same day he
was calmly taking part In the annual proceed-
ings of the Queen Square School of Art. What-
ever may be his finsncial sins or his city blun-
ders, he is one of the most remarkable men
in London. In public estimation he has
been rained for several years. To-day
his bank still exists, he has several beautiful
residences. If our novelists and dramatists
would only take up the stories of real life that
surround them and crop up day by day in the
papers, fiction would receive a stimulus that
would give it all the reillty'ot fact idealized by
the charms of imagination. . There was a report
the other day that Grant had actually bought
the Italian Oper»-boa8e and meant to become a
theatrical impresario I Such a transformation
is not more curious than his purchase of Ros-
sini's posthumous music.
Poor Moritz has utterly gone to the wall. Two
stories are told of him. I inquired after him at
the Queen's. The answer was : " Oh, wis trusted^
him with a cimetar last night, and he acci-
dentally stabbed himself."- In the papers it
was stated that the tragedian h'al steppea upon
a sword. He is laid up now and cannot walk
for the present. " Won't you stay and see the
farce 1" asked one of the attendants to a wag
who was leaving the theatre in the middle of
Shytodc. " No, Tve seen it," was the reply.
Poor Moritz ! All Kate Field's excellent sup-
port in truth and Labouchere's clever attacks
in his behoof wouldn't make the public accept
the new actor as "the great Shakespearean
actor," backed as he was not only by Truth, but
by foreign princes and princesses, patronized
by Irving, and petted by London society.
He promised much, but his performances
fell too far short of what he and his friends had
led us to expect. I thought his Othello an inter-
esting and roost creditable performance. His
Shylock was not irood. but he suffered somewhat
in having for Portia an elderly stoat lady. Mrs.
Arthur Stirling, who, in her early days, played
and looked the part, but is now well described
by a ratirist when he described her as Sergeant

Hxw-HAVwr, Thartdsy, April 11, 1878.
In my last letter to Thb Times I ga-ve ai)
aeeoont of the oondltion of the Harvard Uni-
versity erew, and' of tbeir prospeets, and a
sort of pvophetiead glanoe at their ebancas.
In this letter I can, therefore, dnw a nm-
Ding comparison of the Harvard erew with
the Tale emw, which I have been looking over
to-day. There ue about 1,000 men in Yale
College, and from this number only 11 ean-
dldites mppemnA to contest the vacant places
In the Yale boat which is to row Harvard at
New-London in Jtme. It wHl be remembered
that at Cambridge only 13 men, from over
1,300, tried for the Harvard crew, and the
sbfaition of the problem there is equally appli-
cable to the state of affairs here. Capt, Thomp-
son, of the 'Yale crew, told me to-day that one
of the reasons why so few suitable men came
forward to row was because the enthusiasm at
Yale had waned ^ce Capt. Cook left, and
Harvard had so easily won last year. Want
of enthusiasm in both universities is the appa-
rent reason why so few men are candidates for
the crews, and in a former letter to Tee Times
I explained this want of enthusiasm at Har-
vard, and, the influences at New-Haven being
about the same as at Cambridge, that explana-
tion will suffice. It is surely a great pity that
men when in college will not recognize the great
benefits coming from exercise on the water and
from such Spartan training as boating men un-
dergo. But exertion of an unusual character is
as much avoided here as at Cambr idge.
The erew which is to meet the eight Harvard
oarsmen at New-London has already been se-
lected, and has been in the water since March
1, three days before the Cambridge students
put their barge on the Charles. Through the
Winter the following men worked for the crew :
Oliver D. Thompson, '79. Butler, Penn., Cap-
tain ; Herman Livings^n, '79, New-York City ;
Frank E. Hvde, '79, Hartford, Conn.; John P.
Clarxe, '78, New- York City ; Charies A.
Wight, '80, North Hatfield. Mass.; Henry W.
Taft, '80, Cincinnati, Ohio ; George B. Rogers,
S. S. S.. '80. Lexington, Mass.; Julian W,
Curtlss. '79. Fairfield. Conn.; Adrian S. Pol-
bemus, '79, Astoria, N. Y. Keller and Eonis
were also at work at the gymnasium, but have
dropped off, leaving the firat nine men in pos-
sesuon of the places of crew and substitute.
Of these nine men Poroemus is substitute,
and the others now form the Yale University
crew. Hyde, Livingston, and Thompson were
in the last year's crew, though they are not the
only men who rowed in the race in 1877 who
are in college. The experience of the others
has been very limited. Rogers and Taft have
never been in a boat before, while Wight.
Clarke, and Ourtiss hava rowed io club crews
only, and Polhemus has seen butlittle of boat-
ing. This crew, for inexperience, stands in
marked contrast with the £farvard crew, which
now has seven of its '77 crew in Its boar.
The heights, weights, and ages of the Yale
men are as follows :
Ft Inch.
ThohiFSon 5.10is
Livinastoo 5.11
Rogers 6.3>a
Taft e.lSj
Hyde ..• 5.IOJ3
Wight 5.11
Clarke MUs
Curtlss 5.101s
Polhemtis 5.11%
This crew is of about the same weight as the
average Yale crew, but younger than most Yale
crews, and two years younger than the famous
'76 crew, which beat Harvard so badly at
Springfield.
The order of the men, as they go out dav after
day. is ; Ourtiss, bow ; Clarke, No. *2 ; 'vV'igbt,
No. 3 ; Hyde, No. 4 ; Taft. No. 5 ; Rogers. No.
6 ; Livingston, No. 7, and Thompson, stroke.
Last }'ear, Thompson pulled No. (>. Livingston
No. 2, and Hvde No. 3. The new material ren-
dered this change of the positions of the old
men necessary, perhaps, and seems to work sat-
isfactorily in' the boat, though other changes.
may be made.
"The men during the Winter worked very
steadily in the gymnasium, and developed to the
utmost the muscles of the legs, back, aud arms.
Then, too, there w 'S the daily puU of from 5U0
to 600 strokes at the ordinary rowing weights,
and a dally run of from on* and one-half
to three miles, Capt. Thompson could not
persuade the faculty of the cotiHge to allow
him enough room at the gymua.tium to put up
hydraulic rbwiDg-machines like those which
have been of such inestimable benefit to the
Harvard crew during the Winter months. This
was one of 'Yale's first disadvantaizes, and not
a slight one. In iiddition to the duties of work-
ing,-there came atter the Christmas holidays
the duty of abstaining from pastry and other
iodigMtible delicaiies, and of laying down the
favorite and pleasant pipe. Liquor? however,
and ales the erew Lave indulged in as each man
has seen fit, and Capt. Thompson tieems to see
no reason^ why each man should not drink
just what is agreeable, provided modera-
tion is practiced." Cspt Bancroft, on the.
eoi&rary, is thoroughly against the use of
Uqtior, and think." it prevents his men from
reafibing a state of phyKical perfection. 1
1 tBink the weight of authority is unques-
tionably with CuDt. Bancroft. Tbe crew ore
now living togetlier, and great care is exer-
cised In gembg the best of meat, £c.. for them.
In a very short lime tbe crew will be put into
close training by Capt. Thompson, and this
will, of course, last throuirh the race.
At present tbe exercise of the men is merely
their daily row of from five to six miles, but
the feelings of tbe oarsmen are always consulted,
and no man is forceil to strain bit^elf in mak-
ipg up any fixed distance. Another of the dis-
. advantages of the Yale crew is in the course
over which they ptill. After leaving the boat-
house the crcwcan go either up the river or
down into the harbor. In ease they go out on
the harbor tlieir course is unexceptionable, but
as a matter of fact, the harbor, five days out
of dx,'ls too rough to allow the barge to be
rowed advantageously upon it. If the crew
are forced, on account of the roughness of
the water below, to so up the river,
they are met at every few stretches with
a barricade of stakes marking the position of
oyster beds, and rowing must be greatly inter-
rupted until the obstacles have been iwssed.
^11, Yale crews havealwayshad this to contend
with, bos have yet won races and will in the
future. The crew go out in a barge, which was
built' for them this last Winter by K«ast, tbe
New-^ven boat-builder, who has built most of .
the Yale abells. The barge is much like the
Harvard barge, and. like it, is tlie best possible
boat in wfaleb to take out and discipline fresh
bands. Last year Yale bought a paper boat,
made by Waters, of Troy, and this boat is
to be replaced by one built after tbe same model
by the same man.' I believe tbe Harvard crew
will row in the same paper shell they rowed in
last year, but the old boat may show some of
tile defects of age, and then Waters will be
called upon to furnish them with another. The
'Yale men need English oars, made, by Ayllng in
1877. Capt Thompson has just had on trial
two American oara nude by Donohue, and he Is
.by no means satisfied with them. He says he
finds them too clumsy, aad altogether too large
at the buttons. There is no doubt the English
oars ore more graceful, bat the American oars
have been severely tested by Harvard crews
and have been used again and again by them.
I waa surprised to learn in my conversation
with Capt 'Tbompson that he had not got any
one to coach his erew. This has also been one
of the most urgent demands of tbe Harvard
erew, aad this wont of the two crews is such
that, if it much longer remains unattended to,
there will be a marked ntunber of bad points In
each crew, aqd the race will not be such a scl-
entiflie specimen of oarsmanship as, from tbe
good material in both crews, every one had the
ririit to expect The method pursued by Capt
Tfibmiwon in the abeence of a coach ia to take
oat fa pair oar and follow the crew. But this
is but a poor snbstltttte for a regnlartraining by
an ' experienced coach, and It is to be hoped
that Mfbre long some experienced Yale man
will ebnsent to be with the crew and coach
them daily. It was snpposed that Kennedy, tbe
weU-knowB Yale oarsman,* would be here to
take the eiawin hand; bat Capt Thompaon
received a letter from him a day or more ago.
In wUeh he said he shoold be nnsble to be In
Hew-B^tea. Capt Cook is studying law in
Plttsbarg, Penn., and be, too, ia unable to come
to the craw's assistance, but he may come on
for a wntk or two in June aitd give the crew
the beneilt of watehinjc the originator of the now
famoos'Y^B stroke.
As the stfoks now is, it is the reflection, as
■Croagaapossible. of the stroke Capt Cook in-
trodiaeed uitci eellege boating. It ia hard to see
any parUeoUtr dtffeieaee between the Yale and
HarT*ra^R>ketw Ithiak the Yale stroke la a
tiifla^war thaa tha Mttkut wU<A Cant Baa-
^
eroft,-af tbe Harvagcd erew, sets for his men, but
with thi* diSetence th« Harvard stroke, a* now
rowed, is like tbe stroke of .Capt Thompson.
There lain both orews the dow movement fot-
ward and the instant pause before the oar-blade
Is forced almost verneally into the water, and
both Captains lead their mez^ in rushing the
blade powerfblly and radier rapidly to the
finish. Legs, backs, and arias are called upon
10 exert an almost equal proportionment of
strength, with the legs and .Dooks, perhaps, sus-
taining most '<d the exertion.
On Oie water the followiat points are notice-
able in tho Yale erew: That the bow, Curiiss,
aadBoKers,l!fa 6, are pnlllng with strength
sad endurance, but with so^ important &atts.
Rogers is particolariy awkward on account of
the tact that he has never before had any boat-
ing experience, and becatise of his great size.
He weighs 184, as he stood yestertlay in his
clothes, and he is aboat 6 feet 3^ inches In
height Capt Thompson bod great difficulty in
getting him into even ordinary form, and hla
bad condition now is one of the things
which prevents the erew from -row-
ing In their shelL Then Wight and
Cnrtiss, who row, respectively. No. 3 and
bow, though they have rowed before, they
have rowed only to acquire bad habits, and
these habits, when of long growth, are among
the very worst points a Captain has to eradi-
cate. Still, these two men are mode of excel-
lent stuff to form oarsmen from, and the energy
and perseveredee of Capt Thompson have
placed them in the position of the best oarsmen
for a college crew. Livingston, who rowed sec-
ond in last year's boat, and has now a seat be-
hind Capt Thompson, is one of the best
specimens of a college oar we have seen, and
resembles tbe figure of Mr. Wendell Goodwin,
who was Captain of the Harvard crew of 1874.
It would have been better, I think, tu have
pfaced Livingston in the waist of the boat and
have given Wight No. 7, inasmuch as the
weight would have justified it, aud the fresh
hands wotild have been more judiciously placed.
Hyde, who now will puU No. 4, is in as
good a position as is warranted, and rows
especially well, though be can by no means
be called a strong oar. He rows very
cleanly, and in style somewhat resembles
Crocker, who pulls Iww in the Cambridge eight
Clarke is a good man, but his college training
was not under the observing eye of any of the
experienced ones at New-Haven, and
hence his style now has somewhat
suffered from want of care. Mr. Clarke
is otily another example of the marked contrast
between the system of college boatliig here and
in England, where, at Oxford and Cambridge,
the strong aspirants for boating honois are ta-
ken care of with all the interest that can be
shown, and their whole aquatic coux^ if they
are valuable acquisitioiis, is watched over with
all possible jealousy. Capt. Thompson, to fin-
ish my description of the Yale crew, is one of
Capt. Cook's first pupils, and came from An-
dover, where his first athletic impulses led him
to base-balL He is a man of great strength of
form, but is not gracefully shaped. He has a
broad back, heavy thighs, and a strong pair of
legs, and in general build is verv much like
Smith, of the Harvard crew. His stroke is the
CTook stroke, and it is little to say that he did
not neglect bis first lessons under Capt. Cook.
The Harvard crew got into their shell last
Sattirday for the first time, and their first pull
was very satisfactory. This fact shows that the
Harvard crew is more advanced than the Yale
men, and is, of course, accounted for by the
fact that only one man in tho Cambridge eight
is new to the boat:, while five ot the Yale crew
are entirely fresh bands in a university crew.
The question whether this will make any differ-
ence in the race next June is often asked, and
is a hard one to answer. We know that men
who have been in a victorious boat will be apt
to be over-confident; will naturally put less
work on "their style and condition than will
fresh men anxiotis to pull on a university crew,
and fearful lest their chances may be taken from
under them. But in all such cases one must
take into consideration the characters of the
men forming each crew and tbe pressure upon
tbem from outside. I believe that as the Harvard
crew is composed most of the men will wgrk as
earnestly as if they were for the first time try-
ing for the crew, and that their attention and
energies will l>e just as active as they were last
year. One dr twootherson the crew sometimes
^how indifference to little eixors, and are apt
to take a full share in the belief that they are
going to help Harvard win this vear. The Yale
crew, on the other hand, has liad no outside
pressure from men who were anxiously trying
for seats in the boat, and this fact naturally
leads the fresh men in the present crew to con-
sider their positions assured thera, and to be not
over-zealous in training themselves. Still they
have what the ITnrvard men have not 'got,
namely, the stlngiug impulse to wipe out the
defeat of 1877, and to place Yale once more at
the head of the stream. To these men there is
present an all-powerftil earnestness which de-
feat alone freouentlv cives,. and which will do
much to beat Harvard. Capt Thompson
tells me he will not look on the dark side of the
future, but is determined to malEc everything
'possible out of his material, and to row a plucky
if not a successful race. This is the true spirit,
and one which Yale men may well be proud of.
Everything ebw being equal. I should say that
Harvard is the better crew, because she has age,
weight, and experience in her favor ; but a
month or two more somethinj; may happen to
change the prospects of one or the other of tbe
crews, and so far I would venture no attempt at
foresight- The Yalfe crew goes to New-London
on or about the 20th of June, and will probably
meet tho Harvard men, who will probably have
gone down before them. The coming race will
probably be the most interesting that has ever
taken place between Harvard and "^'ale.

EOWIXO Oy TBE BABLEM SIVER.
The sunshine and warmth yesterday brought
out the oarsmen on the Harlem River in full force,
snd all tbe aftornoon the river was dotted with abells
and club boats somewhat " cranky " for their long
rest, but gliding up and down the river, nevertheless,
propelled with the grace and speed that characterize
the well-practiced oarsmen of New-Yorx. Yesterdsj^
was the first Sunday npon which the oarsmen were
out in any number, and the houses of the leading
boat clubs were filled with members and their friends.
There was even some bathing in the river, but the'
water was too chillv for comfort. Yesterday's prac-
tice opened the boating season on tbe Harlem, and it
will be months again before the little boats disap-
pear from its silvery surface.

DUMMIES COXDEMSED.
AFTER A year's TRIAL ON A PHILADEL-
PHIA STREET RAILROAD THEY ABE
WITHDRAWN.
From the Philadelphia Record, AprU 13.
After nearly a year's trial, the dammies on
the Market-Street Road hnve proven a failure, and
they will be withdrawn after to-day. The most pa-
tient experiments have been niadej>y the managers of
the West Philadelphia Passenger Riulway Company.
with the verdict lu favor of horse cars. Steam-cars,
they say.are too heavy for the tracks, weighing seven
and a half or eight tons, and when laden reaching
nearly ten tons, while the ordinary passenger cars
weigh when packed about five and a half tons. This
additional weight has had the effcet of destroying
tracks and lncrea«in^ the expenses of mainte-
nance of way to a laree sum. Kot only have they
found that the dummies wear out tbe track much
faster than the horse-cars, but they disjoint the
sleepers and bolts, and in a short time necessitate an
entire rebnllding of the road. Tbe ordinary tracks
and roadbeds ofthe streetcar lines are said to be
entirely too ll^bt for the dummies. This has been
the experience of the Market-street management.
Ji. heavier rail than is now usea they think would be
required. In fact, whst is known as a *'T" tbXX
would seem to be the only one fitted for the dum-
mies. On one poiut there seems to be no dispute,
and that is tbifi — that when tbe dummies start aud In
tbeIr movements tbe oscillations are such as to
cause the tracks to spread, and the jolts make
the wooden pins and iron bolts in the sleepers and
wooden supports start, thus causing a continual
drain for repairs. Another objection to tbe pres-
ent steam motor is the disagreeable odor which
pervades it from tbe oil andtheescanine steam. This
is annoying to passengers. Street' railroad agenta
differ as to the cost of runninK the dummies. Some
find that, at the lowest calculation and under the
must economical managemenC, the steam car costs at
least $1 50 i>er day more than the horse car. One
of tbe officials of the Market-Street Road holds that
the experiment they have made with tbe dummies
has not been an exhaustive and fair one as regards
whether steam motors are cheaper than horse cars,
becati&e the company has not been nayinir tbe costs
of repairs, but have merely been standingthe expense
of maintenance, for fuel, oil, engineers, and conduc-
tors, while the entire receipts went to the compapy.
TEE FATEXT OXTTSIDE SUMBUG.
From the Champlain BeraXd.
The New-York Times is taking up the cudgel
against the " patent outside" business, and from the
'* uproar " so far raised think they have hit the nail
on the bead. We ourselves osed them for a short
lime, in establiahing the Herald and before the office
had eot into running order, as it were, but we
dropped it as soon as possible, and printed the paper
wholly at this office. The New- York Times exposes
tbc-lr claim to circulation, showing to advertisers
that it is cheap indeed. There is a roughness, an
unfijitBhed look about the outside sheet which every-
one notices at ouce, and comments npon unfavorably.
It is a sign of lack of enterprise or capital, and is a
reproach to the ordinary printer, who prides him-
self on nice work.
Messrs. BeaU and Foster, so-called, agents of the
American Newspaper Union, but in reality the pro-
prietors, are up m arms acainst Tu£ Times, and en-
deavor to weaken i^s blows by crj*ing "persecu-
tion!" In reality, this patent business is a serious
evil for ail countr>- newspapers, and ail should unite
in stoppins; It if possible. Their pretensions to cir-
cnlation are shown to be unfoanded. ibeir beanty or
nice workmanship is not verv conspicuous, and we
ask: Where is their claim to home patronage! One
side is printed away from home, the other .is per-
haps filled nearly full with advertisements, while
only on« or two — pcrhans more— columns are
left fpr local and liome news. Surely their
claim is small indecKL Again the class of
advertisers wno patronize these advertisine sheets
are not to be relied on. and in nearly six cases out of
ten. are frauds. With the home paper it is essential-
ly different. Having control of both sides, the editor
can select matter to suit his patrons, and pains are
taken to have plenty of £^od local and town news.
With such ft riiper, well printed, there is some pleas-
ure in reading; it. One feels that labor was pnt on it,
and newspaper.*, like everything else, must have
work, hard, untiring, patient indtistry. to make them
successful. Of a home sheet, too. the publisher* feel
some pride in maintainiiur the high standard which
they have aimed at. aud suffers nothing to retro-
grade. .
We say with The Times, that patent outsides do
not pay advertisers, and careful advertisers do not
patronize them.
From the Newhurg Journal,
The New-Yokk Times has been doing the
public some good service lu exposing the absurdity
of people advertising in the "patent inside or out-
side " papers. Thoy nominally get, by contract with
these papers, a large deal of advertising In a great
many papers, but they really get it in only a few, for
half the ''Union" sheets are merely nominal pa-
pers. And while they cover the same saperfldes,
they cover much space that might as well be white
paper for all the good it does aa a medium for adver-
tisiue. A newspaper is not to be estimated by the
number of square inches it covers, bat what
it contains that is read with interest
by its subscribers. There is a great deal
of money thrown away, mostly becaiise of
the isnomuce of advertisers. All these patent de-
vices of advertising are humbugs, and one Inch ina
eood newspaper ia worth all tbe cards that can be
placed in all the public places in town, from the fsct
that very few pay much attention to the latter any-
way, and those who do, do not think of purchasing at
that time. The man who makes money out of bis
advertising ia the one who does it f reelv and gener-
ously: who trejits the newspaner publisher fidrly,
and thus always gets a generous lift if it is in his
power to give it. And he advertises most unwisely
who spends 50 cents where he should spend $50,
nor must any business man think of spending less
money for advertising than he does for rent.

GEN. NOTES' CUJilOSITT,
The Princess Hohenlohe's last reception was
preceded by a dinner, to which several Ministers and
other political personages were invited. Toward
10 o'clock every regime which has governed France
for nearly half- a century was represented in the
drawing-rooms of the German Embassy. Magnifi>
cence was the rule ; but there were personages of
high rank distinguished by simplicity. A foreign
Princess, for instance, was in very elegant mourning,
but she bad not a fiower In her hair or an ornament
of any kind upon her. Young girls lu muslin dresses
over saUn skirts, and with satin sashes tied in
a bow behind, evoked pleasant remldis-
cences of a pre-IlenOiton epoch. Prince
Hohenlohe stood in the throne-room to
receive his guests and the Princess In an inner
drawing-room. Of course, the heads of foreign
missions were at the reception. Gen. Noyes, with
that ea^er and intelligent cuxioslty for which Amer-
icans are remarkable, spent a good part of the even-
ing in examining, with a lady who seemed an author-
ity on art subjecta, the mural decorations of the
music-room, which wer« painted by Baron GttM.
They are admirable specimens of the pseudo-Greek
school of the First Empire. Moses anaQrsees, with
Cupids hovering over tbem. are represented on the
panels. On the mahogany doors harps and other
musical instmmenti and medallion likenesses of the
composers and Ijrrio artists of tbe beginning of the
eentury are pidnted In grisaille.

WEESTLIXG Vrwn THE BEAR " LENA,"
Francis' Borne. otliorviM known as John
Boalanjcer. a FrotichtDan, lirlng at Xo. 1X0 6re«n«-
stx«et, -K&a taken to the New-York Hospltel last
evenins anfferiai troin terrible Injuries reeelved
dorlnc a wrestUzic hoat vUh a large gray bear in
Troy. Bome was a Trell-knoim wrestler, and was
formerly emploTed as a bartender at the drink-
log thop of Begoier & Bauer, No. 104
Prince-street, wnere wrestling matches between
caen and b«azs were flrat introdnced. Borne often
wrestled with hears at this place, and osaally came
off Tlctorions. Abont two months ago he wrestled
with DetactiTe Thomas Adams, of the Central Offi<*e,
St that time a member of the now defunct Police
Athletic Club, and won tne match easily. When
Resrnier & Baner closed their establishment,
Borne joined tlie Saglehardt Wrestling Tronpe and
traveled with them throngh the country, glTing
exhibitions at Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, and
other dties. An exhibition was given in Troy about
six weeks ago. when Bome wrestled with a powerful
gra^ bear, and was very roughly handled. He did
not suppose that he had been seriously injured. He
came to this City Immediatelr, and loon after began
to complain of terrible pains in the back and
loins. He also sx»at blood occasionally, but
as there were no external marks of injuries, his
friends did not believe be was serioosly hurt. He
continued to grow worse, however, and several days
ago marks of the hnse paws of the bear made their
appearance on each side of his body. His condition
became so alarming that last evening his
friends sought medical advice. J>r. Gaylord, of
N'a 108 Springstr^t who was summoned,
found the patient In so preeanons a state that he
informed tne Police. An ambulance was telegraphed
for, and Bome was Immediately taken to the New-
York Hospital. When an examination of the natieut
was made it was discovered that in his con-
teat with the bear he had been terribly rup-
tnred, and had received other internal in-
iuriea. It was stated by one of Berne's friends
that in his contest with the bear the animal closed
with him, and. seizing Mm abonb the loins, hugged
him witb all her might, acting more savagely tnan
she ever had before, and as thoagh she had become
angered. Bome died at 11:45 o'clock last night.
The bear is known as Lena, and is the lareest and
most powerful of the three trained hears imported
by Mr. Peter Can for exhibition as wrestlers. Her
companions are Martin and Marian, but both
are mnch smaller animals. Lena's owner said
last night that she was a very highly-trained
anlmaL and was as expert a wrestler as any of the
men who had been pitted against her. Begnier had
wrestled with her a number of times, but she had
never injured him. He had leased Lena to the
Bnglehardt Wrestling Tronpe, and received $50 per
week for her services. She was not an ill-tempered
brute, but was very powerful, weighing over 300
ponnds. Regnier said last night that he
had freonently wrestled with Lena, and
although she had often hugged more closely than was
pleasant, and he still bore upon his body the marks
of the frays, she had never indicted any severe injury
npon him. He luwl warned Bome of the terrible
strength of the bear, but Bome always appeared
confident that he was a match for her.

The time fixed for Tweed*8 funeral is Wednes-
day next, at 10 o'clock in the morning. In the ar-
rangements esxe is being taken to make it as private
ss possible. All persons whom the family desire to
be present will receive special invitation. The
Mends of the deceased have been requested to send
oo flowers. The residence of Mrs. Douglass. No.
67 Seventy.seventh-street, where the body lies, was
less an "object of public interest yesterday
than on the day previous. Many of Tweed's
old friends called during the day to sym-
pathize witb Mrs. Douglass. S> Foster Dewey
and Tweed's old political friend. Charles G. Cornell,
visited the hocse together. Among other visitors
were Messrs. John J. Blair. Charles E. Develin, John
Scott, and Civil Justice llmotliy J. Campbell. A
legion of other well-loiown local politicians, who bad
been at one time associated with Tweed, also called.
The judgments asrainst Tweed, as shown by the
dockets in the Connty Clerk's office for 1876. 1877.
and 1878, are as follows :

By adding to these figures thtf amonnt of Interest
which has accrued since the entries were made, a
^rand total of over $22,000,000 is had. This Is be-
(ieved to be the greatest amount of judgments ever
on record against any one man. In only" one of the
paolic suits — namely, that In which judgment was
entered on April 6. 1876 — was any trial had. The
other judgments were entered oa confession. Most,
If not all, of the imnorrant suits against Tweed have
been disposed of. There is. however, one — that in-
volving the title to lands purchased by Tweed in
Putnam County for a reservoir— which u pending,
and which, unless some settlement is had, will un-
doubtedly be revived against Tweed's heirs.
TALMAGE ON TWEED.
Rev. Dr. Talmage preached yesterday In the
Brooklyn Tabernacle to a larze congregation on the
"Safeguards of Young Men." To show that life is
full of peril, he pointed to "that wreck of Friday at
Xtudlow-Stroet Jail " as Ulnstrating '* on what a deso-
late coast a sprung craft may crash and part." He
thought there shonld be no exhilaration over that man's
fate, no chuckle of satisfaction, but every Christian
soul should be in deep sadness. There were thou-
sands of men In this country, he said, who. under
the same circumstances, would have fallen as low.
All his sympathies were for the afflicted family of
the dead pr^oner. Some of them he knew had for
t}ie Is^t 10 years sufferea the inquisition of torture.
*' Let us," said be. "remember that that man made
full expiation to society for his crimes against it. He
shared with James Fisk the notoriety of being one
cf the two greatest miscreants of the century." Mr.
Talmage said the safezuards of young men are love
of home, industrious habits, a tugh ideal of life, and
respect for the Sabbath. .
A. TICT2M OF lyTBHTSRANCB.
At 5:30 o'clock yesterday morning Patrolman
ODay, of the Tenth Precinct, found a man Isdn^ un-
conscious and bleeding from a cut on his forehead,
on toe sidewalk at the comer of Orchard and Dlvis-
Ion streets. A stretcher was procured, and the un-
conscious man was taken to the Bldridge-Street Po-
lice Station. When the officer with his burden
reached the station-house it was found that the man
was dead. Inquiries were made In the neighborhood,
and the deceased was soon identified as Frsnk
Heister, aged 44. who had for several weeks occupied
a small irarret room at No. 109 Division-street.
From the persons in charge of the house it was
learned that Heister had been drinking to excess, and
bad for the past two weeks been almost continuously
drunk. His feiiow-tenantsknew very little about him,
or how hemanacedto maintain him»elt. He went
out every morning, remained away all day. and
when he returned at night was always grossly intoxi-
cated. When he reached home on Saturday night
he was Btunldly drunk, ana left the honse at 5
o'clock yesterdAy, apparently in search of some
place where he could get Ugnor. It is supposed that
he UXi on the sidewalk. The wound on his forehead
was only superficial, and was doubtless caused by the
fall. Death is believed to have been caused by ex-
ressive intemperance. Coroner Flana^nin will hold
in inquest, and an antepsy will be made by Dr. D. B.
Miller to ascertain definitely the cause of death.
FIGHT nf A JtOOSBYELT-STREET DEN.

Butter cut her in the hand with a knife. There was
n "Teat uproar, which terminated with the entrance

"dence, No. 121 Thlrd-avenne, and was attended hy a
large ntmiber of brother "professionals.* The body
of the dead down, which was inclosed in a neat rose-
wood casket, with silver mountings, rested in the
little, darkened, front room of the desolated home.
Upon and near the cofiBn were some pretty floral
tributes, and seated in the apartment were a dozen
or two ladies, all of whom belong to, or are connected
witli, the "show" business. The dead down, with
his hands folded on his breast. looked as he did in
life, save that, instead of the chalk worn in the ring,
there was a faint bloom tinsing the ollve-eom-
plexioned cheeks, and the spanxled suit was replaced
by the black satin garb of the grave. A long line of
acrobats, downs, gymnasts, equestrians, managers,
tent-men-^orugged, brown-faced men, used only to
scenes of excitement and activity— passed tiirough
the room, and for the time foi^t the usually
boisterous manners of their class. The eyes
of some, imaccnstomed to tears, were moist
as they left the room, and they epitomized their
dead friend as " Poor Ted ; he was a good fellow !
Never did a wrong to anybody in his life." At 2
o'clock, Rev. Dr. John Kramer, of the Wainwright
Memorial Church, entered the house, and shortly
afterward Frank Whittaker,- the veteran ringmaster,
whispered that the services were about to commence.
The hnm of conversation and the shuffling of feet in
the crowded rooms was hushed as the words, "I am
the resurrection and the life." fell from the clergy-
man's lips. The eloqnent words of the Episcopal rit-
ual sounded strangely to most of those present,
and at its close a fnmons hack somersault thrower
turned and remarjted to the reporter, "That was a
very nice speech he made for ooor Ted." Again the
long line of tumblers, riden, jugglers, and clowns
filed around the coffin, looking for the last time on
still face of the dead jester, and ttien naased' out
through the narrow hall and down the crooked
stairs. The widow and herorphsned little ones took
their farewell of the hnsbandand father, and kind
ladies, who to-night may fijrure in the whirl and
and glitter of the arena, led tbem from the room and
performed the kindly work of comforters. Then the
coffin-lid was closed forever over the features of the
whilom merrymalcer, and the casket was placed
in the waiting hearse, the assembled crowd at the
door of the house uncovering their heads as it was
home past them. The arrangements for the burial
were carried out by the EsqueHtrlan Benevolent As-
Bociaticn, most of the officers and members of which
were present. Among the well-known performers
and "show " people in sttendance were Johnny Pat-
terson, James Cooke, Wiiliara Kennedy, Sam Stick-
ney. and the Kennebell Brothers, all clowns; Charles
W. Fish. Robert Stickney. James RoninsoK and

Dunham, John Gannoo. and Frederick O'Brien.
^Vhen the funeral procession wss formed there were
nearly 150 drcns men in line on foot, besides
carriages, and as they passed down Broadway to
the South Ferry the marked character of the pro-
cession attracted much attention, though few who
saw them realized or thought that these men were
the glittering Apollos of the circuses, and that the
hearse contained the form of one of the modem
Yorickf. whose "gibes, ouiddlta, and quips" were
stilled forever. The Interment took place at Green-
wood Cemetery, and the remsins of "poor Ted" now
rest in the same grave with those of Herbert Wil-
liams, a well-known clown formerly with Howe A
Cushlng's Circus. The burial lot is owned by the
Equestrian Benevolent Association. The inscription
on the coffin-plate waa as follow* : " Edward Middle-
ton Almonte. I>ied April 10. 187S. Aged 35
years."
THE SUPERVISION OF CHARITY, I
A SUMMARY OP THE REPORT OP WORK AC-
COMPLISHED BY THE WARD VISITATION
COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF UNITED
CHARITIES.
The work done during the past Winter by the
Volunteer Ward Committees of the Board of United
Charities is set forth in the third annual report of
the organization made by Mr. Henry E. Pellew,
Chairman. Visitations were made in 20
wards, having a population of 826,453
persons. Of 14 242 names fumiAed to
the committee, 14,010 were investigated, 11,704
approved, 1,235 not approved, the remainder not
being found or declining charity. The number not
approved was 9 per cent, of the whole. They con-
sisted of persons whose earnings were adequate, who
had money In bank, or were drunkards, thieves, lewd
women, "bummers," and others who were abusive
to visitors. The approved were SO per cent, of the
whole. The total number visited and found repre-
sent 12,9til families, or 58.325 individuals. In the
two wards only partly visited 329 cases were
investigated. Much benefit has resulted from
the d^overy of worthy cases of great desti-
tution, which have been relieved either from
private sources or by reference tottie proper agencies
of relief. The 8,000 tons of coal distributed under
the direction of the committee have gone as far
as twice that qnantity frithont the system, and the
existence of the committees deterred many unworthy
persons from applying. Large numbers of citi^6n^
both men and women, ean be fonnd willing and eager
to devote time and labor, and to ruu the risic of dis-
ease, in distributing the amounts appropriated. The
Commissioners of Charities and Correction are
thanked for their efficient co-operation in the worlc,
and the visitors have pledged themselves to continue
the visitations next Winter if called upon, and In the
meantime to form committees of suitable persons
during the Summer months. It is thought probable
that the Board of United Charities, owing to the
apathy of the members and the pnblic, together with
the death of Mr. Theodore Roosevelt, who was inter-
ested in it, will be dissolved or matezially changed at
the close of this year.
b:bsop schereschewskts work.
A farewell meeting for Bishop Schereschew*
sky was held at Cavalry Episcopal Chnrch last even-
ing, under the auspices of the Foreign Missionary
Society of the parish. Rev. Dr. Washburn, the Rec-
tor, presided, and in introdu<!ing the objects of the
meeting, said that in expressing its farewells to the
Bishop it was the wish of the society to further the
work of the Bishop in a substantliCl manner. He
was obliged to depart with his work only half accom-
plished, owing to the unsettled flzfandal condition of
the country. Bev. John Cotton Smith was next in-
troduced. He said it was a privil^^ to" address the
congregation upon to important a subject. People
at the present time had a more intelligent coneeptlon
of the value of misitionary work in foreign landb, but
there was a great want of enthusiasm among the
people in carrying on the grent work. People were
apt to say tliat the heathen were doing well enotigh ;
God would not hsid them responsible, judging them
by the high standard applied to the more
favored peopled 'i his was only selfishness.
It there was any light in which the Christian Chnrcti
shone brightest it was in the degree of missionary
work accomplished. Rev. Dr. Potter said that it
was time thnt the Christian laity should say of for-
eign missionaries. "Why should they not go {"and
not "why should they go.*' The Duke of Wellington
had once said to a lukewarm derffyman. "Follow
your marching orders ; " go ye into all the world and
preach the Gospellto everv creature. ' " Bishop Schere-
schewskr wa* next introduced, and spoke at length
on the du'r of Christians to send missionaries to
heathen lands and to support them in their wor^
not alone by prayers but financially. The exercises
were closed by the singiufc by the congregation of the
missionary hymn, "From Greenland's icy moun-
tains."

REV, DR. NEWMANS NEIF JOHARGE.
\ns nr8t sermon in the central metho-
dist church — an interesting dis-
course on concektrated power ik
' evangelistic work — ^an allusion to
tweed's death.
The pulpit of the Central Methodist Episcopal
Church. Fourteenth-street and Seventh-avenue, was
yesterday, oeenpied, at both motning and evening
services, by Eev. Dr. J. P. Newman, the newly-
appointed Pastor. The chnrch was crowded, many
persons being unable to obtain seats. After the
usual morning services. Dr. Newman announced the
meetinjES for the week, and particularly urged his con-
gregation to attend a service to be held on Friday,
(Good Friday,) " the most sacred day in the Chris-
tian year." He said there was no doubt about the
propriety of observing it, and he bad set the hour at
3 o'clock for the service, as corresponding almost pre-
cisely with the time the crucifixion took place. He
nlso invited his parishioners to meet him at a social
reunion in the chapel on Tuesday evening.
His sermon was an interesting one npon the sub-
Jeet — "Consecrated Power In Evangelistic Work,"
from the text, *' The Master Is come and ealleth for
thee."— St. John li., 28. The boldest thought ever
suggested to the human mind is that of the conver-
sion of the whole world to the Lord. It has no par-
allel in the annals of time. It is bolder than the
purpose of the Macedonian prince to subjugate all
nations by the power of the sword, or the purpose of
Cssar to imlfy all governments under one head, or
the proposition of Multer to construct one language
for all the babblings under the sun. It anticipated a
time when such would be the prevalence of the re-
lision of Christ that all other beliefs would be aban-
doned. It was so bold that only the Divine Being
could have purposed it. What part of this work
have we to do! The whole subject hiuKcs
npon the power of individuality. We recog-
nize this power, and_ that it divides men
Into benefactors and malefactors. According
to the individual qualities of the men in these classes
we are eovemed in our feelings toward them. But
we do not admire men in groups. Segregating from
the naass some one who has been conspicuous for his
virtues we bestow upon him a crown of glory. It is
a fact that should fill our hearts with gladness and
touch our lips with doxologies, that our redemption
'n-as accomplished by one whom we single out to
bless and to adore. We do not hate men In groups, bnt
eelect one who has made himself odious by vice,
nnd transfix his soul with the last arrow
of the quiver of wrath. -An instance of this
kind had been given in this CHty durine the
wepk. A man who had been conspicuous- for his dis-
regard of honesty, but who wSs perhaps no worse
than 12 others who had been associated with him,
had* passed away. The 11 were detested, bnt we
concentrate the feeling of avenion that might be
divided when we remember the face that is to-day
pale within the coffin. Whatever evil there is in this
City or the nation can be traced to individnaJity, and
all wretchedness can be traced to it. The solidarity
of vice and virtue is as truly a fact as Is the fact of
gravitation. You can't quarantine vice, nor can you
put liml s to virtue ; according to its very nature it
can't be isolated, and the fight between virtue and
vice is one unto death. Each one of ns has the
power to save or to destroy, whether he exalt the
power of Jesus or not. Some men appear to have
been raised up and preserved by miraculous menns
for great work. The ark that fioated Moses at the
Island of Rhnda. fioated Mount Sinai and Mount
Tabor. When the Almighty would educate a man
for a great purpose He took him through obscurity
snd at length brought him forth in the fallness of
time, as he brought forth Andrew and Peter and
James and John. When the Christian Church was in
its infancy, and the deatb and resurrection of the
Lord were to be prearhed in the temples and
palaces of the Csesats. when Inspired letters were to
be written, Saul of Tarsus was raised up. When
Ignorance prevailed in the Church, when Pones were
oppressive and priests were letterless, a poor monk
appeared, who was the man for the time and the in-
dividual for the emergency. It is always the case in
God's providence. When scientists assailed the |
Hible and threw down the gauntlet in a spirit of in-
fidelity, then came Mlvart. and taking up the gaunt-
let and wavlDg the banner of Cliristianity, it came
to pass that the book of Oarwin entitlchd Tne I*t*cent
of Man was shown to be a misnomer, and tnat it
should be called 'The Ascent of Man." There is
besides the call to a life of special usefulness a gen-
eral call, which comes to every man and child, an in-
dlvldnal call to be an evangelist and missionary, and
to bring soniB to Christ
Dr. Newman then contrasted the relative powers
of Bacon and St. Paul, who were both endowed for
extraordinary pnrposes, bnt each supplemented the
other. The same was true of Whitefield snd Wesley,
and of M'hitefield nndJonaihiin Edwards. In one
case the individual was the systemizer. in the other
theinspirer. Jonathan Edwards roared his pnlplt
on Mount Sinai, Whitefield reared his pulpit on
Calvary. Whitefield melted to tenderness: Edwards
appalled. In Philsdelphia. «hen AVhttefield spoke
to 20,000 people, many swooned and wept ;
the whole great audience was moved. When Ed-
wards presehed at Entield on the text, "Their feet
shall slip in due time," men grasped the ends of the
pews and the pillars of the church, as If in their ter-
ror they already felt their feet rdipping Into perdi-
tion. An obstacle in tho way of the work
• 't evangelization Is too frequent self-consciousness.
Leadership is the bane of the Church. Every
branch of the Christian Church feels that. And
in the effort to become leaders we have pseudo-
leaders, withont talent or education, and without
power. To the live leaders he would say, " Go
on.'* He would say to Moody and Cook and Mur-
phy: *' Lead on," ont away with these pseudo-Iesd-
era, who are consumed by consummate self-conceit.
Underestimation was to he guarded acainst, snd it
could be overcome by consecration. What was re-
quired was a living realization of the saving power
of Christ, profound sympathy for those outside of
Ciirist— they must remember that law was eternal
and character changeless — and consecration to their
work. Whatever in the worlds history there is of
good report; whatever Kreat thing or lovely thing
;. as been accomplished, has been accomplished by
personal consecration and effort.
THE DOG SHOW.
PROMISE or A FINE EXHIBIT OP KOK-SPORT-
ING DOGS— OVER TWO HUNDRED ENTRIES
ALREADT RECEIVED — THE PREPARATIONS
RAPIDLY APPROACHING COMPLETION. I
The preparations for the coming bench show
of dogs In Gilmore'a Garden continue with every
prospect of an overwhelming success. Notwithstand-
ing that the special prize lists were only issued on
Friday last, over 200 entries have already been re-
ceived, of which about 80 are of sporting dogs. The
exhibition of non-sporting animals promises to be an
exceptionally fine one. Over 50 St. Bernards are
experted, and pet dogs, especially pngs, will have a
large representation. The intending exhibitors are
mostly people of the better classes — ladies and gen- '
tlemen of wealth and social position. A clergyman-
In the upper portion of the State has secured stalls^
for five sporting dogs. In several instances gentle-
men have paid the entry fees and afterward tele-
graphed abroad ordering the purchase of animals for
exhibition. One gentleman doing business on Broad-
way has taken places for no less than three such
prospective exhibits, and another has paid for two
places for dogs that he does not yet own. All
the prominent kennels in the country have
promised to send representatives. The St. Louis.
Ctilcago, and other Western kennels generally will
attend the Baltimore dog show on the 23d inst., and
will then come to New- York to finish the circuit.
Rev. J. r. Macdona has written to say that he will
probably come himself, and that in snv event he will
send some of his best dogs. The managers have en-
gaged Prof. St. Elmo and his troupe of 12 educated
anTmala, and at intervals during the continuance of
the show they will give performances on a central
platform. This feature Is designed not only to amuse
the visitors, but also to exhibit the degree of latent
intelligence that exists in the 'dog as developed by
patient training. Complaints have been received
from some breeders that no distinction has been
made in the classification between imported
and native pointers and setters. ' The man-
agers say that there are comparatively few of the
former in the country, and nearly all of thAe have
already taken prizes. They claim that Americans
have now had time to breed as fine animals as they
do abroad, snd believe that the natives sre fully ahle
to compete with the foreigners. As to the fear that
Mr. Lort will have a prejudice in favor of EnglLsti
setters against natives, the managers say there is no
ground for it. No man can tell the two apart by
looking at them, ana care will he taken that no data
are given any of thejudgea beforehand. The compe-
tition in the setter classes promises to be very keen.
In nddition to the railroads previously mentioned,
letters have been received^from the Great Western
and Grand Tmnfc Companies, agreeing to carry ex-
hibitors for one and one-third fares the round trip.
AN EXPERT PICKPOCKET CAPTURED,
Detectives Aclams and Hart, of Inspector
Murray's squad, took to the Tonjbs Police Courts
yesterdsy, Daniel Day, alias " Policy Mike," who is
known as one of the most expert pickpockets in the
City. It appears that while a man named Samuel
Avery, who had a bank-book in his possession, was
passing throngh Mercer-street on Saturday night.
Day and a companion came out of Gill's saloon and
followed him. The detectives, knowing Day's char^
acter, and suspecting that he and Ms comrade medi-
tated an attack npon Avery, watched them. Day
walked on for some distance until the comer of Mer-
cer and Houston streets was reached, when he set
upon Avery, forced him on his knees, ana tore open
his waistcoat. As he had his liand in the tnside
pocket of that garment the two detectives seised
nlm. Day explained to Justice Murray that he bad
motely tteen ronning to eatch a ear to go home, iHien
hetrini'edandtook hold of Avery to keephimsdf
from falling. He was in the act of beninc that indi-
vidaal*s paraon, he said, when arrested. This some*

NEW-JERSEY. *
The newly-elected Board of Finance of Jersey
City organized on Saturday evening by electing John
Mullins. one of the new members. President It
was expected that Martin M. Drohan, who has been
for two years President of the board would be re-
elected, and his defeat has created seme excitement
among the Jersey City politicians.
Some time ago John E. Donnelly, a Jersey
City politician, entered into an agreement with Wil-
liam Broeser. the proprietor of the Sinclair House
in Hoboken, for the sale of another hotel owned by
Broeser, on Palisade-avenue. Donnelly was to make
the sale, and in consideration of his services Broeser
was to give him a suit of clothes, "a nice girl '[and
$100 in money. The sale was effected, and Brieser
refused to perform his part of the contract Don-
nelly bronght suit In the Hoboken City Court. Judge
Ogden presidinc, for the contract price ; and the case
having been called to a hearing Saturday, Counselor
■William D. Daley, who appeared for Broeser, moved
for a non suit, on the ground that the suit of clcthes
and the " nice girl " were indefinite quantities, and
with the $100 cash promised placed the case beyond
the jurisdiction of the court. The non suit was
granted.
STRANGE CONDUCT OF AN OLD MAN.
A PENNSYLVANIA MERCHANT FOUND WAD-
ING IN COKET ISLAND CREEK — HIS
DAZED CONDITION — FOUL PLAT SUS-
PECTED.
Between 6 and 7 o'clock on Saturday evening
an old man was fotnd wading in Coney Island
Creek between Coney Island and Gravesend. He
was acting in a suspicious manner, and it was thought
that he was trying to drown himself. He was taken
in charge by Constable Hampton, of Gravesend, and
arraigned before Justice Yoorhees. He was evi.
dentiy out of his mind, and as there was no
proper place at which to detain him at Graves-
end. he was broueht to Brooklyn and taken to the
Eighth Precinct Station-house, comer of Fifth-ave-
nue and Sixteenth-street. At fi.rst the Set^eant at
the desk was disinclined to have anything to do with
the case, as it was one cle.irly outside the jurisdic-
tion of the Brooklyn Police. He finally consented,
however, to take care of the wanderer. The old
man said his name was John Levi; that he was a
native of Wales, 57 years of age, and kept a store
at Hyde Parle, near Scranton, Penn. He said,
also, that bis family lived at Hyde Park;
that he was in the habit of coming
to Xew-York freonently on business, and
that he always stopped at the Cosmopolitan Hotel,
comer of Chambers-street and West Broadway.
Constable Hampton came to New- York and called at
the Cosmopolitan Hotel, where he learned that sucli
a man had been stopping there, and that he was
missing. Mr. Levi was properly taken care of during
the nieht. and yesterday morniuK the clerk of the
hotel visited the station-house in Brooklyn and iden-
tified him as a freonent guest of the house.
The clerk said that he arrived at the
hotel on Wednesday of last week, and regis-
tered his name, bnt that he disappeared toward
night, and nothing was seen of him again until Friday.
He stayed at the hotel Friday ni^ht but left aenin
in the mominfc, and nothing was beard of him aeain
until word was bronizfat on Satnrday night that he
was in the Brooklyn Police station. He told the
Sergeant thst he did not have any money when he
came to New-York, and that he did not come to buy
goods this time, hut for another purpose, whii'h he
did not fully explain. He does not seem
to be' very crazy, but acts more like a
man who has been dased by some uncommon occur-
rence. It is the opinion of the Police that he had
more the appearance of one who had be«n drugged
when he was broueht to the station-house than one
who had become suddenly insane. Yesterday he was
very docile, and seemed anxious to he set at liberty.
asking the Sergeant repeatedly to release him. He
had apparently been wull-dressed. but his clothes
were muddy, his boots soiled, and his silk hat in a
shocking condition. His friends have been tele-
graphed for, and his son has sent word that he will
come Immeaiately.

On Saturday another attempt will be made to
shoot the fourth competition for the Remington
prize of $300 in gold, at 11:30 A. M. This has not
been a popular match, owine to a clause in the con*
ditious requirine competitors to use ammunition sup-
pUed by the Remington Rifle Company. Tbe other
conditions are as follows : Open to all comers ; rifles,
any Remington breech-loader ; distances, 900 and
1.000 yards ; 20 shots at each distance ; highest ag-
gregate to win ; no sighting shots ; entrance fee. $'^.
There were four competitions last year, when the
winners and scores were as follows : Isaac L. Allen,
159 ; J. P. Waters. 143 ; H- S. Jewell, 151. Tho
third competition for the *' Skirmisher's '* badge will
take place at 3 P. M. The conditions are : Open to
all members of the National Guard in uniform,
and the National Rifle Association ; weapon, any
rifle issued to the regular Army or the National Gnard

ner. The man malting the highest score will receive
the badge; to the next highest will be awarded 15
per cent, of the entrance money, and to the third 10
per cent. There were two competitions for this
prize last season, and the match bids fair to become
very popular among military riflemen. The winners
last year were Private C. H. Engle, Seventh Regi-
ment, score 39. and Private James Koss, Twelfth
Regiment, score 37.

eoonael :
Mr. Ira B. WMteUr :
Hy Deab Sib: A few weeks sinea, after long
months af mental anguish, I told, as ;oa know,
a few friends, whom I had bitterly deceived,
that the charge bronght by mv husband, of adol-
terr between myself and the Rev. Henry Ward
Beeeher, was true, and that the lie I had lived
ao well the last four years had become iutolera-
hle to me.
That statement 1 now solemnly reaffirm, and
' iteve the trath with God, to whom also I com-
mit myself, my ciiildren, and all who mast
suffer.
I know full well the explanations that
will be sought by many for this acknowledg-
ment ; a desire to return to my husband, in-
sanity, malice, everythins save the true and
only one— my quickened conscience, and the
sense of what is due to the caoss of tiatfa and
justice. Dorins: all the complicatlous of thdse
years you have been my confidential friend, and
therefore I address this letter to yoo, authoriz-
ing and requesting you to seisure its publication.

Bbookitn, April 13, 1878.
Mr. Wheeler has long been not only Mrs. Til-
xm's legal counsel, but her friend and adviser.
'm presenting the letter in Tbe TniES office he
said that Mrs. Tilton carried the manuscript of
the letter to hisoffioe personally yesterday morn-
ing, and put it in bis hands, greatly to his sur-
prise. She requested that Mr. Wheeler would
furnish the newspapers with copies of the letter,
that it might be made public at as early a date
ss possible. Mr. Wheeler accordingly had the
letter put in type, and slips of it were
given to the newspapers late yester-
day afternoon. Mr. Wbeeler is an attor-
ney and counselor at law at No. 239
Broadway. Boom No. 19. Besides this gentle-
man's statement of the origin of the letter, in-
quiries made byToixs reporters of nearly all
the persons interested and informed in the
Beecher-Tilton scandal, place the authenticity
ot the document beyond a doubt.
Mr. Theodore Tilton, according to the land-
lady of tho ouse in which he lodged, in Second-
avenue, kept possession of his room until yes-
terday, and said that lie would not again occupy
it, as he intended to go into the conntry. There
is at least a striking coincidence in the fact that
Mr. Tiiton's proprietorship in the lodgings
eetksedon the same day on which his wife's con-
feasion anpeared, porticalarly in view of the re-
cent rumors of a reoonciliatioa between tnem ;
and Mr. Tiiton's statement that he intended to
go to the country, as it was in the couutry, as
rumor had it, that he was to rejoin his wife.
Ttiere seems to he little doubt that the letter
Is the production of Mrs. Tilton, unaided. It
)3 a woman's eompositian, and written In the
^le that Mrs. Tilton would be most likely to
adopt. The abeenoe o( Mr. Tilton from the
City does away at once with any suspicion that
Mra. Tilton was acting under the immediate
influence of her husband in preparing the letter.
The letter comes noerpectedly npon almost
»very one whose name has beoome familiar in
wnnection with the great sofcndaL few, if
any, of Mrs. Tiiton's friends, except perhaps
one or two of her immediate advisers, knew
Chat it was coming, and none of Mr. Beecher's
adherents bad reason ta expect it.

Watebly, N. Y., April 13. — ^Mr. Beeeher
lectured in this place this evening. On coming
down from the platform bS had placed in his
bands a telegraphic copy of Mrs. Tiiton's con-
fession. He read it quietly, and seemed in no
wise excited-
In reply to my question what he intended to
do, be said, " Nothing at present, except to give
it an explicit denia}." He seemed to be more
sorry for Mr^i. Tilton than troubled about him-
self.
I asked him: "Do yon believe Mrs. Tilton
wrote this of her own mind, or was she in-
floenoed." He answered: ■' I have not spoken
with Mrs. Tilton for over two years. I was in-
Cormed several months ago that influences were
being exerted through her children and otiters,
to effect a reconciliation witb her husband, and
that she ensr.:eticaliv refused to consider it
until he had publioly exonerated her from the
ehargea bronzht against her- It was only a few
weeks ^go that the rumor came to me that she
was in a morbid and self-condemnatoiy state of
mind."
QiMstMM— Has S£r*- Tilton ever intimated
• eosaeionsnesa of guilt before ?
Jtutetr—So far from it that it is impossible
to oonceive, if her present confession is true,
olsoeb an elaborate, prolonged, and extraor-
liaary career of falsehood as she smst
imn pfoetieed. Upon her husband's statement
rf hia accusations baf oretbe committee of the
Anreb, she broka away finJm her husband's
booae and ««fused to live witb him. She took
relnge in the hooae of a dear friend, to whom
ibe eave an unvarying testimony of ber> own
Innocence— the baseness of her husband. - She
went befon the Investigating Committee of
Ptynumth Oburch, and witb wonderful pathos
eleared beneU o{ every charge of do-
meatio infidelity, and underwent tte
doaest questioning. She broke friendship
irltb former friends for doubting her statement
Is this matter. When the ease was in the court,
aftsr ber busbaod's tastiaoBy, to the siir>
ptiae of my counsel and of all her friends,
she rose in the court and demanded
of the Judge that she be permitted to testify to
her innocence. She was examined npeatedly
by my counsel and plied with the most search-
ing questions, and by her consistent and explicit
testimony satisfied themallofherinnoeenceand
won their esteem. When the council of 1876
was eaJled, several interviews were arranged
between her and eminent gentlemen, both ot
the clergy and of the law. In every case she
satisfied them of her absolute innocence. Sub-
sequently to that, at an interview arranged
for the purpose of eiving nrominence to her
declarations and form to her testimony, which
was taken down by a short-hand writer, and
wliich I oelieve to bo sfiu in ex-
istence, although I have never seen it,
she elaborately and, in detail reaffirmed her
innocence and mine. These are the most prom-
inent instances of her uniform testimony. It
should be borne in mind that she first charged
me with this offense to her husband.
Upon my visiting her she withdrew It
in writing. She subsequently renewed the
charge. She then again and indignantly
denied it, and left her husband's house, and for
four years has continued, in every conceivable
form and under the most solemn circumstances,
to deny it, until now, when once again, for the
third time, she renews it. Against this long
and tortuous career, I oppose my uniform and
unimpeachable truthfulness.
In addition to the above the following dis-
patch has been received from Mr. Beeeher :
To lie Milor aj tta 3>^B-Tort Tiaa:
I confront Mrs. Tiiton's confession with
explicit and absolute denial. The testimony
to her own Innocenes and to mine which,
for four years, she has made to hundreds,
in private and in public, before the court,
in writing and orally, I declare to be true. And
ihealle:::ations now made in contradiction of
her uniform, solemn, and unvarying state-
ments hitherto made I utterly deny.
I declare her to be innocent of th3 great trans-
gression. HcxBT Wabd Beeches.
Waveklt, N. Y., Monday evening, April 15.
THE CONFESSION CONFIBMED.
In conversation witb a lady friend of
the family, Mrs. Tilton said she bad
written the confession which was sent
to the papers for publication, adding,
with firmness, that every word of it
was true. The friend reproached her bit-
terly, and asked how she could have
remained unler the crime of perjury so long,
bat was answered that Mrs. Tilton did not
know, but that she had so remained
nevertheless. She said her daughters
were aware ot the truth before they went to
Europe. Mrs. Tilton was very firm in
defending the justice of her pres-
ent course toward Mr. Beeeher, although
evidently in a high state of nervous excitement
Mrs. Morse was present at the in-
terview, and added to the information
given by Mrs. Tilton that Sir. Tilton
wasabsent on a lecturing tour, at a great dis-
tance ; that be provided for bis children every-
thing that could contribute to their comfort, and
that he had seen Mrs. Tilton recently. Mrs.
Morse farther informed her visitor that she
bad sent for Mr. Tilton herself ; that the house
at present occupied by them was to bo va-
cated May 1, but they did not
know where to go. The lady's theory
is that Mr. Beecher's friends had discovered
Mrs. Tiiton's vascillation between ber husband
and Plymouth Church, and that the in-
terest on $10,000 which bad been
regularly paid by gentlemen outside of
Beecher's Church to Mrs. Tilton had
been stopped : that Mrs. Morse bad la this state
of affairs prevailed on Mrs. Tilton to make the
statement published by her, and that all were
to be reunited in Eurooe. for which continent
Mr. Tilton had already secured passage for an
early day. _
THE TBOUBLE BEGUN BT MBS. MOBSE.
Mrs. Morse, Mrs. Tiiton's mother, so a Times
reporter was feifonnedlate last ni^bt, went ito
Mr. Beeeher last December, and threatened
that there would be trouble if Elizabeth was
not better supported. The friends of Beeeher,
with whom he consulted after the visit of the
old lady, insisted that he should not put himself
in a questionable position by providing support
for Mrs- Tilton.
Mrs. Morse thereafter repeated her demand,
in sharp notes, which Beeeher never answered.
The gentleman who -told TaE Tmis
reporter all this added that Mrs. Til-
ton opened a . school in Henry-street,
upon promiMS of support from the Plymouth
congregation; that she received no support
from those people, who said she was not a
proper person to teach children, and that, there-
fore, bhe gave up her school.
The sentleman also said that Mrs. Tilton
wrote a letter, complaininer of the barsh tn-at-
ment she had received, to the wife of Bossiter
Baymond, and that the letter was circu-
lated among the Plymouth people. She
wrote another letter of toe same
sort to Mrs. Anna Figld, in wUch she said she
was no longer KoinVto live a lie.
To soine of the fbmale members of Beecher's
congregation she blamed herself for desertisg
her husband, and said that the Plymouth
trouble had brought forth nearly every form of
crime.
^
MB. P. B. CABPENTEB'S VIEWS.
Mr. Francis B. Carpenter, the artist, read
the letter with careful attention, and said that
the style in which it was written was evidently
Mrs. Tiiton's, and that he knew Mr. Ira B.
Wheeler to be her legal adviser and intimate
friend. He had not, he said, received any
intimation from any source that such
a letter had been or was. to be written.
He expressed astonishment that Mrs. Tilton
should have taken such a step without advising
with ottier persons. Thero had been a rumor
in the Plymouth congregation that Mrs. Tilton
was trying to bring about a reconciliation be-
tween henelf and Mr. Tilton, but it bad not
been traced to any authentio source, and wqs
generally discredited.
Beporter — I am instructed to ask yon, Mf.
Carpenter, not only whether yon knew or had
any reason for believing that such a letter had
been or was to be written by Mrs. Tilton, but
whether you know of any steps to be taken on
the part of Mr. Tilton to bring about a read-
justment of hia family relations ; whether yon
have any reason to believe that Mr. TUton baa
in any manner inSnenoed his wife to write such
a letter, and whether yon know or have any
reason to believe that Mr. Tilton regards such a
;reooneiUatian ai desirable or practicable I
Mr. Carpenter replied : When Mr. Tilton re-
turned from Europe he received a communica-
tion from Mrs. Tiiton's lawyer, understood to
be written by ber authority, asking for pecuni-
ary assistance, and be took steps to have an in-
terview with ber. purely in regard to business
matters. As neither party has taken any
neanres to PToesre a divoRSb Mr. Tilton oeo-
aiders himself under obligation to make ade-
quate provision for bis wife. His peetmiary
contributions have all been dictated by this view
of the case, and not, I .believe, by any
wish to pave the way for a readjnat-
mentof hia family relations. He is very reti-
cent about the matter, and seldom mentions his
wife, but the drift of his conversation is to the
effect that the rupture is final, and that a re-
newal ot his relations with ber isimproetleable.
Mr. Tilton is now in the West ; at latest ad-
vices, last week, he was at Fort. Wayne, and in-
tended to go to Kansas before he returned.
Others may be deeper in his confidence than I
am, but I have no reason to believe that he was
privy to any such communication, or that he in
any way ihfiuenced it. On the contrary, it has
the manner of a tardy act of justiee, and is
like Mrs. Tilton in its impulsiveness."
Mr. Clarke, Mr. Tiiton's editorial associate on
the Oolden Age, was here ushered into the re-
ception-room. Hr. Carpenter asked leave to
show the document to Mr. Clarke, as Mr. Til-
ton's confidential friend, ''and one intimately ,
acquainted with his affairs. After Mr. Carpen-
ter had read the printed sliiffraloud, Mr. Clarke
said be had had no previous intimation that
such a letter was to be written, and acaroely
knew what to say about it. Mrs. Carpenter,
who had entered the room while ber husband
was resding the communication, said : " It
sounds to me exactly like Mrs. Tilton, and I am
glad for one that she has told the truth at left"
The conversation then drifted into a general
discussion of the qaestion whether the letter
was probably infiaenced by any negotiations on
the part of Mr. Tilton, looking to a reconstruc-
tion of his home. Mr. Clarice expressed him-
self decidedly in the negative as to Mr. Tilton
entertaining the idea that such a thing was
practicable. There was, he observed, no pos-
sible basis upon which a reconstruction could
take place. Mr. Tiiton's contributions to the
support of his wife were dictated by what he he-
lieved to be an imperative obligation not to
leave her at the mercy of the world, or of those
professing to be her friends.
WHAT MB. SHEARMAN KNOWS ABOUT
THE CONFESSION.
Mr. Thomas G. Shearman said that he was
one of Mr. Beecher's counsel, and that it
would, therefore, be manifestly improper
for him to say anything in reeard to
the confession, or to foreshadow what
action would be taken by Mr. Beeeher.
He bad known for some time that a confession
was going to be made, and he had so informed
Mr. Beeeher. The particular document shown
him, however, he had never seen until yes-
terday afternoon. He did not think the effect
of the confession would amount to anything,
It bad been well known for months that Mr.
and Mrs. Tilton had been in communication
with each other, all denials to the contrary not-
withstanding. As soon as he learned the fact
that Mrs. Tilton bad granted her husband a
personal interview, he had refused to have any
communication with her, for the reason that he
knew her well enough to know that the mo-
ment she consented to remain three minutes
under his influence there was no telling what
she would or would not do.
THE PEELING IN PLYMOUTH CHUECH.
A prominent member of Plymouth Church,
and one of the members of the Church In-
vestigating Committee, when shown a copy of
the confession last evening, readitthrough very
carefully two or three times, before utter-
ing a word, and then, with a sigh, said: " Poor
Beeeher! So he has got to bear this!" In
reply to questions, he said that he
had had no personal knowledge that any
confession was contemplated, although he had
been informed ttarongh trustworthy sources that
Tilton and his wife were going to liye together
again, and, from what he knew of ber and the
infiuenee which Tilton had over her, he had no
reason to be surprised at anything she might do,
when once under his influence. Her statement
before the Investigating Committee in regard
to the letter she wrote to Dr. Storrs, and the re-
traction of it, was enough to satisfy him that
she told the simple truth when she said that she
had no power, and never had, to refuse to do
anything he asked her to do. It was his
opinion that Theodore Tilton had told the truth
when he said that the rumors in circulation in
regard to himsek and bis wife were false, and
that he had no intention of ever living with her
again, althongh he had undoubtedly cajoled her
into the belief that he would do so. and that
the price she bad been compelled to pay was the
signing of a document to prove herself an
adulteress. He did not think that the old battle
would have to be fought over again, but that it
would fall flat after a few days. Neither
did he believe that the confession would change
the opinion of any one. So far as Plymouth
Church is concerned, they were unanimously
of the opinion that Mr. Beeeher had
been the subject of the vilest,
most, malignant and cunning scandal
that was ever concocted, and. that they believe
him to be entirely innocent of the charges
brought against him. He denied that It was a
matter of life and death on the part of the
ebureb to sustain Beeeher, and that they were
doing it in order to save the cburch.
Had there been even the smallest minority in
the church who believed Mr. Beeeher Kuilty he
could not have remained In Plymouth Chureb
a moment. Be mentioned, as further
evidence of the temper of Plymouth Chorch,
its unanimous action in raising his salary to
$100,000 two years ago, and in subsequent-
ly raising $m,000 to help him out
with the Chrittian Unioti. He also spoke
ot the last ecclesiastical council, and ^d that
he had positive knowledge that at least 40 of
the members of that t>ody came here with
the belief that Mr. Beeeher was guilty,
and that they all went away unanimously
convinced that he was innocent. He
then read the confession over again very
carefully, commenting upon it as he proceeded,
and ttii it was so clearly "Tiltonian" that he
thought no one could doubt for a moment that
Theodore Tilton was the author of it.
PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T KNOW AND DIDN'T
CABE.
Gen. Soger A. Pryor was found last even-
ing at bis residence in Willow-street, Brooklyn.
When the reporter handed him a printed copy
of Mrs. Tiiton's letter he read it half through,
began it over again, and read in sUence
to the end. Then, standing up by
the window, be slowly read it aloud, and having
eondnded dropped bis band, atill holding the
letter, to bis side, and said: "Poor woman I
what has ahe not suffered 1 If tliis
letter is true I pity ber. If it Is
not true, and she makes soeb a state-
ment as this, I can only pity her then." He
had not aeen or heard of tiie letter until then,
he said, and really did not bu>w, what to isay.
There was a possibility that it was not
antbsstlo, trot, in ' a ny case, he did
not Itnow what to say at present, and would
therefore aay nothing. If the letter proved to
be authoritative be misht be able to give some

Mr. Franeis D, Moulton, the "mutual friend,"

trial, said that she had not seen the Tilton or
Morse family for two years, and never wanted
to see either of them again.
. »
THE PIBST BEPOBT OP THE EECONCIlr
lATION.
The first report that a confession was to
he made by Mra. Tilton, and that a reconciliation
between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton was likely
to be effected, was published exclusive-
ly in Tbx Totes on Thursday, March
28. It waa then learned that over-
tures had been made by Mr. Tilton to induce
bis wife to live witb him sgidn, and that they
were likely to prove successful. The report waa
then corroborated by a gentleman well-
informed about the tgroubles of the
persons concerned in the Beeeher
scandal, but most of Mr. Beecher's friends ridi-
culed the idea as preposterous. Later the rumor
gained circulation that a reconciliation could
only be brought shout by a confession on Mrs.
Tiiton's part, and it was suggested that it
could only be effected unon the understanding
that the two should henceforth live in Europe.
It is claimed that Mr. Tilton frequently com-
municated with Mrs. Tilton through
her son Carroll, and that he fre-
quently sent her money to pay her ex-
penses. About March 14 Theodore Tilton
inquired in Warwick, N. Y., of T. H. Demarest,
keeper of the Nations! Hotel, about boarding
accommodations for Mrs. Tilton and her chil-
dren, who wished to spend the Summer at
Warwick. Mrs. Tilton and her son a
day or two after visited the place,
bringing a letter of introduction to
Mr. Demarest from Theodore Tilton, and ar-
ranged to take up the quarters selected for them
late in this month, about the third week. On
April 9 an elaborate denial was made
of the whole story of the reconciliation.
An effort was then made to induce Mrs. Tilion
to talk on the subject, but she absolutely re-
fused. She wrote an answer, however,
to the inquiries made about the re-
ported confession, which was as fol
Iowa : " Mrs. Tilton desires me [the bearer
of tho answer] to say that she authorizes the
statement that there is no such . document in
existence as described, written or authorized by
her, and any confession purporting to come
from her is a rank forgery." This answer waa
ingenious, but in the light of later events it
shows that Mrs. Tilton was cautious in her ex-
pressions, and took care not to deny the circum-
stances of the visits and communications that
had been made with a view to the reconcilia-
tion.
m
POEMER CHAEGES AND DENIALS.
The leading fp.cts of the great Plymouth
Church scandal, whieh'so recently and so fully
occupied the public attention, are in no danger
of being forgotten. But some ot its incidents
may appropriately be recalled at this time in
cotmeetion with the above letter. Setting
aside all antecedent and vague rumors, we
come upon a substantial accusation against Mr.
Beeeher on the 22dof July, 1874, oa which day
was published Mr. Theodore Tiiton's statement
before the Committee of Investigation ap-
pointed by Mr. Beeeher to investigate and re-
port upon the charges against him. In this
sworn statement Mr. Tilton formulates his
grave accusation as follows :
"That, on the 2d of October, 1855, at Ply-
month Chureb, Brooklyn, a marriage between
Theodore Tilton and Elizabeth B. Bieharda was
performed by Bev. Henry Ward Beeeher, which
marriage 13 years afterward was dishonored
and violated by the clergyman through the
criminal seduction of this wife and mother, as
hereinafter set forth."
Mr. Tilton further states that durine a long
period of social intimacy Mr. Beeeher " won the
affectionate love of Mrs. Tilton, whereby after
long moral resistance by her, and after repeated
assaults by him upon her mind with overmas-
tering arguments, he accomplished the posses-
sion ot her person, maintaining with her thence-
forward during the period hereinafter stated
the relation called criminal intercourse."
Mr. Tilton further specifies the evening of
Oct. 10, 1868, and the following Saturday
evening, as dates of some of the criminal acts
between Mr. Beeeher and Mrs. Tilton, and al-
leges "other similar acts on various occasions
fron: the Autnmnof 1868 to the Spring ot
1870."
Mr Beecher's statement in reply, answering
the charges with a seneral denial, was pub-
lished on July 23. The denial was unreserved
and complete. We quote its concluding sen-
tence:
" To every statement which connects me dis-
honorably with Mre. Elizabeth B. Tilton, or
which in anywise would impugn the honor and
purity of this beloved Christian woman, I give
the most explicit, comprehensive, and solemn
denial"
On Thuraday, July 23, 1874, Mrs. Tilton,
in her statement to the Investigating Commit-
tee ot Plymouth Chureb, said:
To pick up anew the sorrows of the last 10
ytars, the stiiucs and pains I bad daily schooled
myself to bury and f or^ve, makes this impera-
tive duty, as called forth by the malicious state-
ment of my husband, the saddest act of my life.
* * * "nie reiteration in his statement that
he bad " perdstentiy striven to hide" these so-
called faeta is utterly false, as his hatrea to Mr.
Beeeher has existed these many years, and the
determination to ruin Mr. Beeeher has been the
oneaim of his life. * * * . Nothwithstanding
all misrepresentations and anguish of soul, I
owe to my acquaintance and friendship with
Mr. Beeeher, as to no other human instru-
mentality, that encouragement in my mentid
life, and that growth toward the divine na-
ture, which enable me to walk daily in a
lively hope of the life beyond. • • • The
shameless charges in Articles 7, 8, and 9 are
fearfully false in each and every particular.
The letter referred to in Mr. lliton's tenth
paragraph was obtained from me by importuni-
ty, and by representations that it was necessary
for him to use in his then pending difficulties
with Mr. Bowen. 1 was then sick, nigh unto
death, having suffered a misearrige only four
daysbeforeTTdgned whatever he required, with-
out knowing or nnderstanding its import. The
paperlbave never seen,' and So not know what
statements it contained. • • • TheimpUca-
lion that the harmony of our home was unbro-
ken till Mr. Beeeher entered it as a frequent
guest and friend is a lamentable satire npon the
househould When he himself, yean before, laid
the comer-stone of free love, and desecrated its
altars up to the time of my departure ; so that
the atmosphere was notonly godless but impure
for my children.
In summing up the! whole mister, I affirm
myself befon God to be innocent t>f the crimes
laid upon me; ,titat never have I bean gnilty of
adultery with Henry Ward Beeeher in thought
ordepd; nor bashe ever offefed to mean indeo-
orous or improper proposal. To the further
charge that I was lea away from home by Mr.
Beeober'a frienda, and by the advice of a law-
yer whom Vx. Baacber bad sent tr> me, and
who, in advance of my appearing before the
committee, artanged with me the questions and
answen which were to eonsHtate my testimony
in Mr. Beeehei's behalf, I answer, that this is
again tmtrue.

lows : " There is said to have been an amicable
semi-official interehange of views between the
London and St. Petereburg Cabinets. The
former declares a sincere desire for a peaceful
solution, and disclaims the wish to put unne-
cessary obstacles in the way of negotiations,
but adheres to the desire to have the whole
treaty placed before the congress. The latter
also adheres to its previous attitude, and cites
Prince Gortsehakoff's .reply to Lord Salisbury
as proof ot a readiness to discuss even the
most important clauses. In unofficial conversa-
tion the Russians still cling to the idea that
England seeks to humiliate them and tear
up the treaty. They wiU not allow the
treaty to be canceled, although they are ready
to make modifications. A preliminary con-
ference seems to be the most promising issue
out of the difficulty."
AUSTRIA, RUSSI4, AND TURKEY.
REPORTED UNDERSTANDING WITH BEOABD
TO AUSTBIAN OCODPATION OP BOSNIA
AND HEBZEGOVINA.
London, April 15. — Renter's Telegram
Company has received the following dispatch:
Constantinople, April 15.— It is stated that
Count Zichy, the Austrian Ambassador,
has renewed proposals for the eventual, oc-
cupation of Bosnia and Herzegovian by Austria,
pointing out that unless the Porte agrees to
this measure it will be impossible to bring
about the return of Bosnian refugees to their
homes; or re-establish the security of the fron-
tier. Bnssia is in accord with Austria in
this matter, and would consent to modify the
requisite portiou of the San Stefano treaty if
the Pcnrte should consent to Count Zichy's pro-
posal. It is untre that Count Zichy has also
asked to occupy the Salonica Bailway.
London', April 16. — A sensational correspond-
ent of the SUindard at Pesth believes that the
understanding between Bussia and Austria has
been re-established, Bussia having consented to
limit the occupation ot Bulgaria to one year,
modify the western frontier of Bulgaria, cur-
tidlthe extension of Servia and Montenegro,
and permit the establishment of an Austrian
protectorate over Western Turkey.
The Vienna correspondent of the Timet says :
" According to Berlin advices Germany will
only really attempt pacific intervention when
all is prepared on both sides so as to
insure almost certain success. The first step
in the direction of mediation seems to have
been obtaining some authority to undertake the
task, and all dese preliminary difficulties seem
to be overcome. Those in position to know
seem to have much more confidence in the
meeting of the congress. The report that
Count Zichy is negotiating relative to (he
occupation of Bosida and Herzegovina has
probably arisen from the fact that hn is ne-
gotiating for the repatriation of refugees."
T^E PROSPECTS FOR A CONFERENCE.
SENTIMENT ON THIS SnBJECT IN ENGLAND
AND BUSSIA — DELICATE TASK OP 6EB-
MANT AS A MEDIATOR OB ADVISER —
THE PBELDUNABT KEOOTIATIONS AT
BERLIN.
London, April 13. — There is a strong
feeling in both England and Bussia that war is
inevitable. At St. Petersburg the belief is
stated to prevail that England's willingness to
continue negotiations is rather for the purpose
of isolating Bussia than arriving at an under-
standing. Some influential persons believe
that England will not go to war
alone. Hence earnest efforts eontinne to
satisfy Austria. Some moderate men in official
circles have begun censuring the Bus-
slan Generals, diplomats, and newspapere for
pushing the Government into a position where
the issue between Bussian independent action
and European control is unavoidable, but the
majority of the public continue to declare that
the Government has been too conciliatory, and
the press opposes any concessions.
Germany's efforts to bring about an under-
standing continue, but the task is rendered deli-
cate and difficult hv the~ existing intimate
relations between ' Germany and Bussia.
Prince Bismarck is reported to have said re-
centiy, in reply to a suggestion that he should
mediate, " We cannot offer counsel to Russia,
for advice on our part would almost look
like a menace." According to trustworthy
Informaiion from Berlin the chances of the suc-
cess of Uie present vourparlert are still thought
to be pretty evenly oalanced. A prelimin-
ary meeting of resident Ambassadors at Berlin,
it is bought, might find a basis for
the meeting of a congress, which Prince
Bismarck is unwilling to suggest, because
advice to Bussia from a power so
intimate and friendly as Germany might be'
interpreted as the first step toward
abandoning a friendly attitude, and event-
ually taking part with her antagonist.
But, notwithstanding the difficulty and
delicacy of his position. Prince Bismarck,
recognizing that tbe chief danger lies in the
menacing attitude occupied by the two
powers before Constantinople, and in the
struggle for influence at the Porte, has
undertaken the difflcolt task of finding a for-
mula by which England and Bussia may es-
tablish a modiw vtr«>idi in this quarter
by means of pledges such as were previously
exchanged between Eneland and Russia, direct,
touching the Dardanelles and Gallipolt It is
thought that an arrangement on this point
is even more difficult than the meeting of a
congress, but that unless arranged its influence
mi^t neutralize the efforts of a congress when
assembled.

Constantinople, April 15. — ^In eonse-
auenoe of the spread of typhus to this^city f rom the
Bussian camp all departing vessels receive foul
bills of health. The projected visit of the Khedive
to the Snltaa has been postponed. The trial of
Suleiman Pasha has commenced. His condem-
nation is regarded as extremely probable.
LOHDOir, April 15.— In eonaeqnenee of Bns-
siaa lemonstraaees the Porte has promised tbe
immediate evacuation of Varna and Shnmla.
It is stated diat Dervish Pasha declares that he
cannot evacuate Batoum.
Pro-Bossian advices from Constantinople
state that the struggle in the Cabinet for the
oaeendency continuea. Tbe British mrty is
stUI In power.
London, April 16.— The Xitkuf Pen special
says there was a manifest uneasineas
on Sunday and Moadav lest the Bussiaas should
attempt a eoi9de main against Constantinople
ThaSDSpIoioa is only traceable to tits geaenal
diseaatsnt ot the Buiriaas at tbe prolonged na-
oertataly-
A special to the Slatidttrd from Constantino-
ple announces that the Bustians have occupied
Shnada.
Bnssia will succeed la her designs in eonseqnenee
of intefnal dissensions. Prime Minister Bratiano's
return without assurances from Vienna, and
with advice from Beriin to yield, will not
strengthen the disposition to oppose Bussia, al-
though the feeling against her in tbe Army, as
wellas among the citizens, is very bitter. ' Hun-
dreds of emptv carts are passing through
Bucharest from Bussia, going to the Danube to
transport supplies from depots along tbe river
to the troops in the field. The Bnsraan offices
in Bucharest have been leased for another six
months.
In Servia an anti-Bussian feeling is said to
be showing great strength in the.Cablnet and
among tbe people, though Prince Milan is un-
conditionally Bussian. War prepartions con-
tinue.
Tbe insurrection in Tbessaly is almost over-
whelmed by the large forces of Turks
sent from Thrace and Bulgaria. In Epirus
it completely hangs fire, and can
only be revived by considenble efforts
of Greek sympathizers. The Cretans are still
able to hold their own, hut it is feared that
Turkish reinforcements will be sent to the
island. The Greeks are much discouraged.
They believe that Russia is intriguing against
them.
London, April 16. — Additional correspond-
ence on the Eastern question is published. It
shows that Coiint Schonvaloff informed Lord
Salisbury on April 11, that Prince Gortschakoff
never told the Bonmanian agent that Russia
would oppose broaching the Bessarabian ques-
tion at the Congress,
A Berlin dispatch says: " The Bonmanian
agent here ofllcially denies the reoort that
Prince Gortschakoff requested the recall of the
BoomanialAgent at Vienna."
A Belgrade dispatch says : "Prince Milan is
expected to st^rt for Nisch on Thursday. He
will probably issue a proclamation."
The Sfandard'e special from Volo says the
Circassians and other irregulars under Assaf
Pasba have massacred between 800 and 900
persons of all ages and sexes at Palatiza.
The Times has the following from Berlin :
" Preparations are making in Russia for the
organization of a general levy. Passports wilt
only be issued to persons over 46 years of age."
THE BRITISr' PARLIAMENT.
THE queen's reply TO THE ADDRESS— PROS-
PECTS OF AN ADJOURNMENT.
London, April 15. — The Queen has re-
plied to the address of Parliament thanking her
Majesty for calling ontthe reserves. She thanks
both houses for their loyalty, and says that she
feels sure that she can always rely upon their
adopting measures for the honor of the crown
and the stability 6f toe Empire.
Rumors of the dissolution ot Parliament ore
still circulated, but the Liberals declare that Par-
liament cannot be dissolved without cause, and
that the recent abstention of official Liberals
from opposition to the Government's measures
removes the semblance of eaiise. The Min-
isters have begun to leave London for the
Easter holidays.

egpeciol XMoMittk to Oe JTac. riirt nno.
Baleiqh, April 15. — The Wilmington, Colum-
bia and Augosta Railroad has been placed in the
bands of Mr. R. H. Bridgeis as Receiver. Tbis Ye-
Bolt was not anexpected. The company held a lease
of the WilminKton and Weldon Railroad, running
from these two points, at on annoal rental of 7 per
cent, on tbe par value of tbe stock. In Jantiary last
a default waa made of the payment of Interest on tbe
morteage bonds of the Wilmington, Colambia and Au-
gusta Railroad Company, and also of tbe lease mouey
due the WHmlnetan and Weldon Railroad Company.
Under this state of affairs the bondbolden ot the
Wilmington, Colambia and AT.gastn. Railroad Com-
pany, Feoreventing 43,900,000, csHed a conference,
which met in Baltimore early lost week. Several
daya were snent in discussing the affairs of the com-
pany, and then fellowed the appointment of a Re-
ceiver by Judge Bond, of the United States Circuit
Court. By the terms of the lease the Wilmington
and Weldon Railroad reverted to its stocknolders to*
t\ay. It is freely charged that sharp management bos
been employed to freeze ont the local and small
stockholders of the Wilmington and Weldon Rail-
road Company. Large Interests of the citizens
of Wilmington are in volvei, and serlonsly endangered
by patting tbe road In cnaige of a ReceiTer. It Is
also ebatged that combinations have been entered
into byinen oatside of the State for the purpose of
owning and controlling all the railroad property in
this State. This road forms a part of the Atlantic
Coast Line, and great complaints have been made by
the citizens alone the road that aninst and ont*
rageoa^discriniinations have been made, to the very
serioas loss of the people of this State. Instead of
building an the City of vVilminglon, the management
of the Coast Lice has dwarfed the inanstty,
apd made that city a simole way-station. The same
management has controlled the Atlantic and Xortb
Carolina Railroad from Goldsboro to Morehead for
the past year, and there is one continual cry against
the discriminations of this line. The State controls
this road, and Gov. Vance is respon^ble for tbe pres-
ent officers and directory of the company. Much
complaint and great feeling against Gov. Vance has
been the result. It is well known that the Gover-
nor feels outraged at the management of this road,
and it is probable that a change will be made in
June next, which will be in sympathy with tbe peo-
ple. Much of the oppoaition to Gov. Vance for
Senator in the counties through which this road ran a
has been fomented and eneoaraged on this account.

Albany, N. Y., April 15. — The largen
part of the evening session of the House was de-
voted to a debate, which became rather warai'
at times, upon the adoption of the residntioB
offered by Mr. Strack on tbe Ist of April, and*
this evening called np, relating to the Surrogate
of New- York. The resolution is as follows:
Resolved. That the Surrogate of tbe Coun ty
of New-York be and he is hereby required_ to
report to this House within 10 days the names
of all auditors, Beferees, special guardians. Col-
lectors, and Beceivere appointed by him from
May 1, 1876, to the date of his report, and it
he has appointed any person more tnan once he
shall so state, giving number of times be has so
appointed such person, and he is hereby re-
quired to report within the same period the
amount of all allowances made by him to coun-
sel. Referees, Receivers, auditors, special guar-
dians, and to tbe counsel of any collector or Re-
ceiver, said' report to state the names of the
persons to whom such allowances have been
made.
When tbe resolution was first called np by
Mr. Strack it was adopted with scarcely a dis-
sentins voice ; but a few minutes after Mr.
Grady came into tbe chamber and asked that
the vote be reconsidered, as he desired to de-
bate the resolution and give reasons to the
House why it should not pass. There was a
little skirmishing upon this, but finally, as a
matter ot courtesy, the vote was reconsidered,
and the resolution was thereby put b»
fore the House for general debate.
Mr. Grady led off with a speech against its
adoption, but what he said in defense of Mr.
Calvin was so odd, looked at in that li^t, that
it might almost have been thought ironical.
He objected to tbe adoption of the resolution;
because it made no specific cbax^ges againsit
the Surrogate ; because it was a sort of i
drag-net; because no good could comei
of it ; because it might bring U>
light abuses, and because the House last sessiooi
had refused to adopt a resolution making in-
quiries about the District Attorney's orffice. H»
said the abuses in the Surrogate's «ffice w^f»
of 15 yeare' standing, and tiiat 'Aie present-
Surrogate does appoint his friends as Beceivera
and others, and does it as often as he can. Ho
also allowed large fees, and this was tk
cause of complaint, but such things were
natural. Mr. Grady's "defcn.'se" of tho
Surrogate left that gentleman in very bad
plight before the House, though it was proba-
bly not so intended. Later on in the debate,
first Mr. Kelson, of Rockland, and then Mr.
Thompson, of Jefferson. l>oth old personal
friends ot the Surrogate, declared their
firm belief in the upri^tness and in-
teerity of Mr. Calvin, Mr. Thomp-
son enthusiastically declaring tiiat Mr. Calvin
was the most honest man that erver came from
Jefferson County. Mr. Strack, Mr. Worth. Mr.
Fitzgerald, and others, spoke for tbe resolution,
while the burden of tbe opposition fell almost
wholly upon Mr. Grady and .Mr. Thain. Mr.
Bfooks was absent.
Tbe report in The Times of the meeting ot
tbe Municipal Society, where the Surrosate's
office was discussed, was acknowledged by Mr.
Strack to be the chief reason for his drawing
up the resolution. This report was constantly
referred to as a newspaper '* article." until Mr.
Strack called tbe atten^on of tbe House to tbe
fact that it was a report of the things said and
done at a public meeting, composed of
merchants, bankers, lawyers, and other profea-
sional men and property-owners. The Tay-
lor estate scandal was also very freely
spoken of, and it was stated thu
when the court lawyers had eaten up tbe $25<1.-
000 left by the decedent, their inautiable ra-
pacity was such that they ittingly capped the
climax ot infamy by actually selling tbe
widow's clothes to pay some advertising fees.
This, however, was explained as having taken
place under tbe predecessor of Mr. Calvin.
Debate upon the resolutioii, after several
amendments had been rejected, closed with itc
adoption by the House by a vote of 57 yeas tc
19 nava. The New-York memben voted as
folloi^s :
Yeas— Messrs. Daly, Fitzgereld. Dr. Hayes,
and Strack. Nays — Browning. Galvin, Grady,
Seebacher, and 'Thain. The other City memben
were absent.
The country Democrats, with only one or two
exceptions, voted for the resolution. Immedi-
ately after the resolution had been adopted, Mr^
Grady offered a resolution calling on the District
Attorney of New- York to report a list of the in-
dictments untried, and to give the reasons why
such indictments ' have not been tried, and as
the majority of tbe members bad tacitly pledged
themselves "to vote for it. the resolution was cap*
ried without debate.
Mr. Williams, ot Chsntanqua. offered a con-
current resolution that the Legislatore adjours
on Friday, tbe 26tb inst. It went over undei
the rule. Tbe general impression seems to be
that the final adjournment will take place be-
tween the 5th and 10th of May.

Jnly, 1876, Mr. Henry L. Heiter, a son of tbeaanor
member, has had an iatenst in tha profits, bat was
not a nartner, and conseqoently does not enter into
the assignment. Tbe firm employed 150 ban«ls, the
majority of whom were fiirls, who were Co hare been
paid their waees yesterday. liSte in the aftazttoon
Mr. Heiter, who ejEpressed mnch sympathy forhia
female employes, was endeavoring to obt^a a per-
sonal loan of $1,000, for the porpoaa oCpaylng tham
off.
Llvermore & Co., bankers andl^okBTS, ot
No. 7-1 Broadway, notified the Stock Bx^anga yes-
terday morning of their inability to meet their ea-
ga^ements. ^iubseQaently the foUowiog stocks, aa-
greKatinc 2,70O shares, were booght in for their
arcoant nnder the rule ; 700 Laae Shore, 600 Xorth-
weacem common, 600 Delaware, Tisakawanna and
AVestem, 'JOO Delaware and Endson, 200 Bocfc
Island. 0.00 New-York Central, 100 St. Paul com-
mon, and 200 St. Paul preferred. Ur. Livennore
ascribed his failure to that of hi' customers to re-
spond to his calls for marsrlns. Half an hour after
the announcement he receired by mall and other-
wise enOQgli money to make ererytihing good. Tha
firm bad no interest iu the market themseWea, and
if left alone would be able to lesanse in a few days.
Mr. Lirermora could not estimate his liabilities.
The market was, he said, Terr fioctuattng, and the
amount would deoend altogether on what aettlemant
bis creditors would be willing to make. Robert
Lirermore, the uncle of the senior member, was a
partner of tha old firm of Henry Clews A
b«. Edward Lirermore, another BBcle, now
lead, was also an old Wallstreet man, baring
been a member of the firm of Llrermore A Adams.
IXr. W. £*. Lirermora has himself bewi Qa tha street
for 13 years, and was one of the fonndezs of tlie old
open board. Abont three ymn tgo be established
blmseif in bnsiness at Ko. 17 Broad-atreet, being, it
was nnderstoo'l, backed by his two uncles. Snbae-
qnentiy tlie hrm of Clews & Liwrmore was formed,
with Uenry Clewa as a partner. Here also, it is said.
Mr. Robert Livermore furnisbad tli« capital. Aboat
a year and a half ago this Srm was dlssolrad, Hr.
Clews Eotng ont and Hr. Samuel .C. Selden beecqaing
a member. They are reputed to* hare don* a fair
business, and the failure is looked iipon in the street
aa merely a temporary suspension.
Gould H. Thorp & Co., of No. Ill Broad-
street, one of the largest proriaion brokeiago aonaes
In the City, notified the Produce Exebang* yesterday
morning of their inability to meet their engagemeats.
Mr. Thorp haa been in business daring the past 25
years, with the exception of three years, daring
which he was at the war aa Lleotenant-Colonel of
Dnryea's Zooavea. He aaid yesterday that liis liabil*
ities'will amount to about $40,000. Jamea Kingsa,
the speculator, who got so heavily cornered in lard
about a year and a half sko, and running off to New-
Bruiiswick cut hla tliroat on top of a snow-bank
and rolled under a rasslag locomotire, owed the
firm $27,00O. Tnis, Mr. Thorp aaya was
his first sertooa loss. Ha haa continoed to
hare bad luck ever since. To accommodate
his customers and attract businasa lie has be^n in
the habit ot signing and eanring contracts in Ills own
name, and waa always willing to girabis cheek for
any profits that might accrue by the rise or fail of
provisions, in this way, wiuta the /market after-
ward went acainst the cuatomer, he'was often left
in the lurch. The greatest aympathy was expressed
for t'se firm on 'Change, and many of the creditors
hastened to sign releases, while others made offers of
monetary assistance. It ia expected in conaeqaeneo
that the firm will l>e able to resume boaineaa in a
few days. Mr. Thorp expreesea himself eonfident of
doing io. He ia a member of the Board of Hanagars
of the Exchange, and ia on several important commit-
tees. His partner, Mr. F. O. Lampaon, was bis
clerk for nine years, and was admitted into the eon-
eem two years ago.
There was great ezeitemeBt among the'patrona
ot the " black-board exebaog**," or "boaket shops,"
yeaterdav. Tha air was foil of Tonwnof faiinres,
and nearly every down-town concern was iMDtioaed.
All the proprietors, however, eu*pt tbre* a*Bl*d th*
reports. The senior partner of th^ most Important
of the three, W. A. Evan* is Co., No. 3<f Broad-
street, acknowledged his suspension, bat ssseitad
that he would be able to go on to-day. H* ssdd that
tince Tuesday of last week a determined raid bad
been made upon him by "8calperB'*fTom tba Stock
Exchange, who bought North-Wast common nntii he
thought they would never be satlsflad. Then erery-
body else seemed to get the point, aad cam* ui
anil purchased North-west common. Etob bis
regular customers, who never booght mora tbaa iiv*
thares of a stock in their Itvea before, took 100 shate*
at a time with a recklessness that was astoaiahing.
Mr. Evans did not know who posted than, bnt ha
waa strongly inclined to saspeet that tha members
of the Exchange had jot up a job en Um.
. Nortb-west went up from 41 at the rat* of two
points a day until it reaebad 54 yesterday memlng,
and then everybody came down on him at once for
their money. He paid ont $8,000, aad waa com-
pelled to stop. He says be has about 600 more ae-
coonta, agsregating about $3,000, OTistittleft, W. h.
Comings, of Ko. 62 Broadway, and Mottelay A Brit-
ton, of Ho. 19 Broad-stteat, told similar storiea.
The latter concern, howavsr, stootlf assarted tha*
thev had not suspended, and woold not, but they
acknowledged that they had been coiaaiad, and bad
been compelled to ask an extaasloa tcom soa* of
their larger creditors. Comings had a aot^ea posted
on bis front door annoaneisg his suspension, but b*
*oo was hopeful ot rssnnlSf btatiaaas today.

My subject ia a verv vast one, for the atmggle of

land archives, and I have bad two copyiats
constantly engaged In London snd two others

of last Winter st Brussels, where, by spadal favor
of the Belgian Government, I was allowed to read—
what no ona else has been aver permitted to see-
the great mass ot copies taken by that Government
from the Simaacas arshivea, a tranalated epitome of
wliiefa has been pobliahad by Gaahard. Tliis corre-
spondence reaches to the death ot Philip XL. and is of
immense extent and importance. Had I not obtained
leave to read the Invtlaable. and, tor ny parpofe,
indispensable doeomenta at Brussels, I should have
gone to Spain, for they will not be imbllshed thee*
SO years, and than oady la a tiaasliBted and excea.

read the whole of this eorrsq^ondeBae, and made
very copioas sotas ot It. Ia trath. I devoted thr«*
Qtontbs ot last Wiatsr to that pnipase elan*.
The materials 1 liave collected from the English
archive* are also eatieeMly baportaat and enrioos.
■I have haadnds ot Intaiesting letters, B*v*r pub-
lished or to be imblislied, by ()aeen SUaalietb,
BaigUey, WaUngham, Sidney, Drak*, WUloaghby,
Iisicester, aad others. For the whole of the portion
of mr subject, in which Holland asd Unglanil were
comblnad into one Miole, to resist Spain in Its
attempt to obtain the tmlveraal empire, I have
very abuadaat eolUftiena, For tha hiatocy of
th* 17nit*d Provlnoas is not at all a provincial his-
tory. It Is the history ot Earopean liberty. With-
out the struggle ot Holland and Eni^aad egaiaat
Spain, all Enrope mlsfat have been Oatholla and

that mr work, whatever its other value may be, is

LAW REPORTS.
TBB JSEW FEDERAL JUDGES,
ftUCOH^
THE PENNSYLVAiOA OIL MEN. .
The people of the oil rei^on. appeal to your
tense of fairness and^ostice, as against the persistent
misrepresentation by your special oorrespondent at
Harritbsrg, at to the parport aad Intent of the act
nov pending before the Penntrlvania Legitlature
*knovn as the Anti-Discrimination act.
The Constitatlon of PeaosylTania provides, article
17, section 3 : " Persons and property transported
orer any railroad shall be dellTered at any station,
atchargea not exceedin; the charges for transporta-
tion of persons and property of the same class in the
same direction to any more distant station." and
tection 7 : " Ko discrimination in ch&rges orfadllties
tor transportation shall be made between transporta-
tion companies and indlTidoidt, or in favor of either,
hj abatemeat, drawback or otherwise, aad no railroad
or sanal company, or any lessee, manager, or em-
ploy« ttwreot, shall make any preference in famishing
<3>r8 or motive power."
This act provides that any shipper "^f property by
tha car-load between auy polnta in the State Bfatdl
have the same rates and fAcUities as are civen to any
other ahlpper of ear-loads of similar T>ropert7 b<*-
tween the same points; that the usual frei::ht schedule
of rates, now given only to railroad agents, shall also
be posted for public Inspection; and that wlien
malnng those stoiedales a greater sum shall not be
chaigM for the transpvrtatlon of a ear-load for a
shorter than for a loDger distance. VcrlKwe as the
bill may be considered, every other provision in it
is to prevent the evasion of those above described,
and tha friends of the bill in ths Legislature have
repeatedly announced that if it contained anything
else, or if its passage wcnld. at any town or village
In the State, hamper, embarrass, or restrict auv
railroad company In the control or management of
tU Ifgitigiate hosinest, they would ask no member
to support It. It passed a critical examination by
th*iiidiciary Committee of the Senate, received lu
unanimous approval, and passed the Senate by
a nnaxdmoas vote. Ic received a rimilar vote from
the same committee of the House of Represenatives,
where it is now pending. Ko railroad stockholder,
official, legislative agent, or other person, has yet,
at any stage of its progress, given any reason, or at-
tempted to do so, why the bOl should ni^t become a
law, and it seems reserved to the agents of the Asso-
ciated E*ree5to, under cover of thair portion, attack
it by misrepresenting it. It is no secret that mos^t
railroads in this State have a riug of ofQcials engaged
in some industry on its line who have rates and fa-
cilities ov^ their own roads which no other shipper,
dealer, or prodacer can obtain.
These its passage would destroy, and it Is no se-
cret, also, that every prominent political manager in
the State is consequently an enemy of tlie bill.
Every lawyer in the Legislature knows that the bill
does not seek to regulate freight transported into or
out of the State, tluit being entirely within the juris-
diction of Congress, under the constitutional provision
giving It the power to regulate Inter-State commerce,
and that tt such • law was enacted by a State it
would be invalid. An act to enforce that provi'»ion
is now before, the Katlonal House of Representa-
tives.
The nroposed State law referred to, like the na-
tional law proposed, ts as mnch in the interest of tb^
railroad owners as of the x>eople. and if the press
does not fairly present it, don't let it additionally
burden u« by mlsrepresentinc; it. P.

REPAVING FIFTH-AVENL"E.
To Oe Xdttor of the I^eto- York Ttma i
A few days since a bill was introduced In the
Senate at Albany, by Senator Hogan, of this City,
asking that Fifth-avenue be repaved, and that Mr.
George M. Van Nort and three other gentlemen be
appointed Commissioners to have charge of the work
of repavlng . said avenue. I own valuable pToi»erty
fronting on this avenue ; I am also a lance tax-payer,
and 1 feel quite safe in stating that tbe property-
owners ot this City do not want Mr. Van Nort and
bis friends appointed to the care and responsibUity
of repaving this great thoroughfare. Tbe expression
isaB«uiimona by tax-payers that no commission shonld
be creatod for this work. We tax-payers have had
enough of S[>ecial eommissionsof this proposed kind.
We know that it means plnnder and jobbery. Why
appoint a commiasion for the proposed paving f Does
Mr. Allan Campbell, our Commissioner of Public
Works, refuse to take churge of this work f Is he
incompetent f Or has he in any of his official acts
shown himself unworthy the confidence of the public
and tax-payer t I think not. I esteem him one of
tbe most faithful, honest, competent, and painstaking
offifdals we have. Let him supervise the repaving
of Fifth-avenne, and we shall have it well and eco-
nomically done, at a cost to the Citv of eoma
$200,000 leea than It will be if manipulated by a
special commission manufactured at Altiany for the
job. JOHN H. SHERWOOD,

THAT FISHY TASTE AGAIN.
To th$ Editor of t\eKew-Tork Timet:
la this part of the City the Croton water has
become so oCTensively fishy that it is not mneh more
palatable than eod-Uver oil. Vegetables cooked in it
are offensive both to smell and taste, and a fresh
piece of salmon boiled in it on Saturday was re-
xnarluibly distastefoL
The probability is that there are dead ted rotten
fish in tbe Croton pipes. This condition of our drink-
ing water cannot long exist without causing sickness.
Believing tills appeal through my daily newspaper
will be more effectoai than a private complaint, and
knowing tiiat Thx Tmss is a terror to the negligent
official as well also as to tbe evil doer, I have taken
this eoorse to get a nnisance abated, M. D.
NSW-YOKK. Moaday, April L^ 1878.
0LOTER*8 DJSMOORATIO CATCH.
The Waahingtoa eorrespondent of the Balti-
more Q<ueUe^ a Democratio paper, has the following
in relation to the fund so liberally drawn upon by a
Denoeratie <^cial of tiie House, which waa referred
to in onr dispatohea on M<mday : " Mr. Glorer, of
Missouri, (ftairmaa of the committee to uvestigate
the expenditures In the Treasury Department, has
been progressing %rcll enoush for some weeks past,
bnt very recently he has struck something that tends
to disnmrage his efforts in some measure. The dis-
covery reflects on Ma}or S. K. Donavin. of Ohio, who
acted as Col. Polk*s first assistant while the latter was
Doc»c-keeper of the House. It will be remembsred
that Donavin was Deputy Sergeaut^t-Arma, in
charge of the Morrison Investieatins Committee,
which went Soath tb Leulslaaa doruig the Presi-
dential contest. He had oomplete charge of the dis-
tribution of ^SjOOO. the amotmt exriended on
«bia trip. Cola Polk waa Ua assistant at that
time. When the Door-keeperah^ was before
the caucus in October last it was easy to be seen
t^t Polk and Donavin were still worklnjr to-
Esthei; and when the result was annonneed Polk was
eard to say, 'I know that New-Orleans did it.* On
sevetaloecMon* the intimate friends of Col. Polk
nrged him to dispense with the services of Donavin,
and one of them on one of these occasions was in-
fonned that it waa impossible, and that tbe friend
would naderstead it 'if he knew all.' It has often
becu whispered that some revf laclons could be made
as to the distribnUon of that ^'2,000 at Donavin's
bands, mt no proof was addaced of any irregularity.
On tbe aathontr of Mr. Glover it now appears that
hla eomadttee la in posaession of proof that at least
$10,000 of tiiat aaooBst waa crookedly durrged to
the Government, and went into pocketa not entitlod
to iL The committee will soon proceed to call the
defense oa this ease, Blthoafh the proofs are said to
be overwhelming.'*

. On the evidence sabmitted at the trial of
X[enbtWa&d Beeches, The Times reached
the conclusion that he was giultyof the
charge brought against him. Since that
time we have seen no reason to change the
opinion thenrecorded, though we shouldhave
shared the satisfaction of all right-minded
people in finding soficient grounds to be-
lievein Mr. Beeches's innocence. The Times
proclaimedtheguiltof Mr. Beecheb on other
grounds than the confession and retraction
of Mrs. TlLTON. The card^from" her which
we publish to-day does not, therefore,
strengthen the case against him as it has
Ibeen regarded in these columns. It is
>rorthl98s as legal evidence, however strong-
ly it may confirm the moral presumption
of Mr. Beeches's guilt. This weak and
erring woman has so hopelessly forsworn
lierself as to forfeit aU claim to attention
!or credence. Her letter will, however, be
effectual in reviving the whole disgusting
Controversy, in liberating once more the
Snoral contagion of which it has been the
Kruitful source, and in lending to the odaons
|f;ang who traded on their knowledge of. Mr.
[Beeches's guilt a species of vindication
^hich may lead people to forget their mean-
aaess and duplicity. As for Mr. Beecheb,
be remains the impure and perjured mfin
Iwhioh anj- rational construction of his own
'letters proved him to be.
That fact deprives Mr. Beechbb's re-
minder to Mrs. TiLTOS's latest confession of
any title to consideration. It lends, how-
iever, to every fresh protest of his against
jthe justice of the retribution which he has
teamed, the terrible emphasis of per-
knstent hypocrisy and falsehood. The
long and bitter struggle to set at
aiaught the consequences of guilt,
and the keen torture which every new phase
lof this wretched business must bring to an
jorganization like that of Mr. Beecheb,
If orm one of the most pitiful episodes of human
«xp«rienoe. If Mr. Beecheb's sins have been
nmi^ne, his yet unfinished tale of suffering
Bs fairly proportioned to them. Mrs. TiL-
Q^sk's latest confession will probably not
!>.bate one jot of the attachment with which
Qfr. Beecheb's friends have clung to him,
and their implicit faith in his innocence is
likely to stand a much ruder test than this.
Bat it can hardly fail to deepen the indigna-
tion with which those convinced of Mr.
Bebchxi^s gnilt, regard the spectacle of
the gospel of '' troth and purity being
expounded b>y one who has so flaerantlr de-
fed its.preeepts. Were it for no other
I Reason than the influence which this ever-
j recurring scandal has uj^n the moral tone
I of society, or than tbis insidious poison
I whieh it carries into this minds of youth,
j the individual who is its konrce and centre
moat sustain in the sight| of GrOD and man
%D. awful re«ponslbiUty. \
Another bill to remove the trial of the al-
leged timber-thieves to thto district in which
the dep'redatlona were coibmitted has been
Introduced in the House, xhe assurance of
the advocates of timber-st^Ung is wonder-
ful. It has bees hardehetTby the mischiev-
ous demagogisBt of Senators who have
.been glad to defend a erime if they could
only make a , point against Secretary
ScHTJEZ. Now 'that the Senators who op-
posed the policy of the Interior Department
in regard to timber depredations are cooler,
they may see to what their hot-headed
arguments legitimately lead. Mr. Hookeb's
fcUl is clearly and unmistakably designed to
Bhield offenders against the laws. Even
Ur. Hookeb will hardly pretend that the
argument that the bill will save the costs of
^tnesses is anything more than a joke.
Qliis second attempt to cheat justice of her
dues will hardly (succeed. The first bill
pa^ed the Senate in the face of an adverse
report from the Judiciary Ck>minittee ; but
that was because <'the Senate was specially
excited against the •Secretary on that day.
A calmer feeling prevailed a few days after-
ward, juid the yPreeident's veto killed the

Om election of their new sovnreign, Prince
Battkkbxbo and his brother having, it will
be remembered, publicly denied the report
of their nomination as candidates for the
vacant throne. Prince Bismabce makes a
very safe assertion in declaring peace po*-
sible if Europe is willing to accept the re-
trocession of Bessarabia, the surrender, of
KoKhem Armenia, and the war indemnity ;
but that " if " is a very comprehensive one
indeed. Even now, some wonld-be wise
people in En^and persist in asserting that
war will be declared within a fortni^t ; bnt
the general opinion seems to be that the
chances of peace and war are pretty evenly
balanced. The rumored war excitement in
Moscow, and the anti-Russian feeling of
Servia and Boumania, are awkward symp-
toms; but the real difficulty in
the path of Germany's conteinplated
mediation is the position of the
rival forees before* Constantinople*. The
withdrawal of either the Russian Army or
the English fleet would at once be construed
into an admission of weakness, while, on the
other hand, the position of the latter blocks
Russia's exit into the Mediterranean, and
that of the former, as Sir Samxtei, Bakgb
has just pointed out, prevents the export of
grain from the Danube to England. The
new remedy is the proposal of a convention
by which both forces shall be confined to
certain limits, but the assent of the two
powers to such an arrangement is extremely
doubtful. Meanwhile, the Turkish Govern-
ment is said to be preparing to quit Stam-
boul for Scutari, and the long-delayed
evacuation of Shumla and Varna seems
about to take place at last. Prince
Charles' rumored intention to abdicate
should Boumania be coerced, bears the
stamp of a Daily Telegraph canard too plain-
ly to require comment.

" Drag-net " investigations are not popu-
lar with Tammany Democrats in the Assem-
bly, which shows how circumstances may
alter cases. It happens, however, that the
information called for by Mr. Strack's reso-
lution in regard to the office of the New-
York Surrogate is of a very specific kind,
and not at all susceptible of being
abused for partisan or other ends. If
the Surrogate, Caivin, be the immacu-
late person that his friends claim, the in-
formation requested will have the desirable
effect of dissipating the somewhat prev-
alent impression that the Surrogate's office
is a centre of political and personal jobbery,
and that its administration is decidedly
more admired by the little knot of
favored lawyers whom it allows to secure
snug positions as Referees, Guardians, &c. ,
than by the legal profession generally. The
resolution was adopted by a large majority,
and the Surrogate's reply to it ought to be
interesting and suggestive reading.
CONGBESS AS A DISTURBING FORCE.
The fashion of the hour is, an inter-
change of congratulations based upon our
apparent nearness to specie payment. So
small a fraction divides gold and green-
backs that there is a disi>osition to disre-
gard the difference and anticipate the pe-
riod of resumption. The exceptiontd cases
in which this was yesterday done at Chicago
and Cincinnati are noticeable mainly as
proofs that in those centres of the remon-
etization craze some faith in honest money
yet remains. The discussion of the subject
in other places, and the vague inclination
to end doubt by taking at once the decisive
step, have a wider significance. They would
be satisfactory if they indicated nothing
more than the cordial co-operation of the
banks with the Treasury in perfectingthe pre-
liminaries which equally concern both. But,
in truth, the cireumjtanees suggest much
more. Their occurrence would be impos-
sible, despite Mr. Sherman's bargain with
the Syndicate, if the feeling were not abroad
that the various adverse influences which in
the aggregate have made hard times are to
a Isirge extent exhausted. The comer is be-
lieved to have been turned, and, though
financiers still lack confidence, and business
men, warned by experience, are not entirely
without misgivings, faith and hope among
both classes are visibly on the increase.
Things are sounder than before. The con-
dition of trade is better. The odds in the
markets of the world are on our side. The
crop prospects are good. The process of
material development goes on. And though
none of these indications is of itself suffi-
cient to lighten the future, they are, taken
altogether, reasonable ground for the im-
proved spirit that is manifest. The country
feels that it is getting better, and its con-
sciousness of the fact marks a real advance
toward a cure.
A relapse is the danger to be apprehended.
Providence has done, and is doing, a great
deal for the ooi\ntoy. The politicians are
doing what they can against it. Disorgan-
izing forces are warring against the conserv-
ative agencies which alone contribute to
national restoration. The essentials of the
case are peace and non-interference. Only
let the politicians keep their hands off, and
natural recuperation will do the rest. This
abstinence from evil, though at the best a
negative virtue, seems to-be that of which
Congress is incapable. It is trying hard to
upset things in every direction. Not con-
tent with the waste of one year out of every
four under the guise of electing a Presi-
dent, Speaker Basdall's ruling gives
comfort to the agitators who demand a
reopening of the election of 1876. We do
not believe that the House, bad as it is, vrill
perpetrate the folly of countenancing in
any waj>the mischievous nonsense of Mr.
MoNTOOMEBY BiJilB, but the bare possibil-
ity, as revealed in yesterday's proceedings,
is enough to show how little partisan mad-
ness cares for the interests of the country.
To keep the pitiful Tildbn bef ore"his party.
Democrats are ready to create strife that
would paralyze all business, destroy the
little confidence that exists, and kindle the
passions that lie at the root of revolutions.
While this assault upon Mr.' Hates^ title
is at present only a contingency, there are
several matters before Congress which seri-
ously interfere with thS improvement of
trade and the re-establishment of confidence.
However excellent Mr. Wood's intentions,
his Tariff bill is an almost unmixed evil,
simply because it upsets business, calcula-
tions, introduces uncertainty into important
industries, and furnishes a pretext for the
revival'of -an odious tax. In other cireum-
ftaaee* the bill would be entitled to friendly
consideration. With some imperfections, it
baa many merits. Bat good things almost
, aMM-ts be Mod whan oat ot Blaee : -and a
Mheme for reoit^uiiii^'tke tariff' eotainl^
is out of plaee at a time i^en tiaide and in-
dustry are bent !iritk inanmmbla difflenl-
ties, and when the great majority of traders
and manxifactiirdrs are too ezhaustrd to en-
dure fiscal experiments of any kind. Their
prayer just now is, to be allowed to go on
with the maehinery they have, in the ways
they are accustomed to, with no f^eah un-
certainty in any direction. .Mr. Wood in-
sists that he desires to be.their friend. They
ask, in return, that he viU postjKine the ex-
ercise of his friendship to a more convenient
season. Tariff reform will then be a popular
cry. At present, it suggests a great dis-
turbance.
As a consequence of changes in the tariff,
involving loss, to the revenue, bnnnesa peo-
ple, and people with fixed incomes genbr-
ally, are threatened with an income tax.
Every straggling merchant and mannfao-
tureristo be ciompelledto exhibit his books,
to justify exemption by proof of Insolvency
or to establish the limits beyond which the
inquisitorial assessor may not go. So far
as the imposition of the tax refleota a popu-
lar demand, it is an expression of that an-
archical hostility to realized capital which
is the most, ominous feature of current poli-
tiosd discussion throughout the West. The
pretense is, that only by this direct and un-
constitutional tax can corporations and
capitalists be made to | bear their
share of the nation's burdens. The
corporations, however, can take care of
them^^lves ; and Mr. Tildek has shown
that dapitalists can do the same. To the
race of Tildens an income tax brings no
terrors. Business men, and salaried men,
see in it a vexations and oppressive load.
The latter class — those who of all people
are most helpless— have no chance of
relief. Ultimately, business men protect
themselves by re-coUecting the tax from
their customers, but meanwhile the ex-
posure of their affairs endangers their
ciiedit and otherwise adds to their embar-
rassments. Now, this tax upon incomes is
an impending cause of disturbance, the
only excuse for which must be, either the
probability of loss to the Customs revenue
fojllowing the enactment of the new tariff,
oij the failure of Congress so to economize
the expenditures of the Government as to
prevent the occurrence of a deficit.
rThe passage by the Senate of the bill re-
pealing the Bankrupt law is another illus-
tration of the same reckless disregard of the
wants of trade, or the same inability to apply
wise remedial nieasures. That the law now
in force is bad, no one denies. But that
sdme general law is required to protect
creditors, to administer the affairs of in-
solvents, and to punish swindling traders, is
equally manifest. The necessity for such a
law, obvious in all circumstances, is pecu-
liarly urgent in the present condition of
business. The Senate, however, ignores
the requirement, and as the House Judi-
ciary Committee has reported in favor of
repeal, the enactment of the pending
measure is probable. Congress will thus
confess its incapacity,- as weU as its indiffer-
ence to the injury and wrong which the
abrogation of the national law will inflict
upon honest traders everywhere.

pling that of an enemy, and upholding the

form an ample sphere for our ambition at
present.
As to harbor defense, besides the thirteen
iron-elads now said to be Suitable for sea
service. We find the Secretary mentioning
the Saujnu as nearljr ready, while the Dic-
tator, at the rather heavy cost of half a million,
could also be made effeetive. tThere are, in
addition, five donble-tnrretod monitors, the
Pwitan, Hiantonomolt, Amphitrite, Monad-
noek, and Terror, being in process of con-
struction, which can presumably be com-

are zaeaived witb'timidi;^ and alaim in
Constantinople. England desires to defend
Toricey; Turkey does not want to be de-
fended. With a pistol at her ear, she ex-
claims that she is perfectiy satisfied. In-
deed,, (under what domestic pressure we
cannot tell,) Turkey has pat forth a card,
so to speak, informing the world that she
aconite the results of the war — but hopes to
be let off easy. Russia, disguising her de-
signs mider various phflanthropio* Igp^ri-.
sies, has conquered Turkey. QrOit Brit-
ain, concealing her selfish ,: chagrin
under an appearance of in<lignaM6n
at the ill-treatment of Turkey,
offers to avenge the MussuUfian ind
set all thingi right in the, interest
of justice and humanity. Between the bois-
terous frien4ship of the Russian' and tiie
tardy and dangerous championship of the
Briton, Turkey is at her wit's end. Idlte
the jrebels in our own war, all she a6'& is to
be let alone. But neither one nor the other
will let her alone. Aside from all ^liplo-
matie finesse and high-sounding phrase,
Russia and England are on the point of
quarreling over the partition of " Turkey.
And the ruined, battered, wounded, and be-
draggled mistress of theBosphorus, alarmed
for the safety of the house over her head,
proposes to move across into Asia and let
these bravo lovers fight it out by themselves,
while she regards the contest from afar with
impartial eye.
THE NEEDS OF THE NAVT.
In urging a reconstruction of the Navy,
Secretary Thompson follows the tradition
of his department. No new broom in ad-
ministration makes a cleaner sweep than
the naval broom. Each Secretary finds that
much that has been bequeathed to him by
his esteemed predecessors is quite worthless,
and fit only for the scrap-heap. The Secre-
tary is usually very far from being an old
salt, or an expert in marine construction ;
but he has half a dozen bureaus of experts
under him, and from them and the line he
draws his ideas. We do not now recall any
instance of a head 6t a Bureau of Construc-
tion and Repairs condemning his own
models, or a head of the Bureau of Ordnance
his own gun-carriages, or a head of the
Bureau of Steam Engineering his own nov-
elties in steam machinery. But each is as
merciless on the errors of his predecessors
as his successor will be on his own, and this
process of weeding out what is worthless
at last leaves very little behind.
ExaoUy how much is left at the present
time has been set forth by Mr. Thompson
in the important series of dooumento just
sent to the House Naval Committee. In
brief, the total effective consists of thirteen
monitors, (Commodore Schdfeldt, we be-
Ave, says eleven,} mainly for coast de-
fense, and twenty-nine cruisers, carrying
262 guns, of which the largest is the eleyen-
inch, whUe some are only the five-inch.
Even of these twenty-nine, four are dispateh-
boats, three others are now under repair,
one has been lately condemned, and eight
others, besides the Wyoming, badly need re-
pairs. None of these cruisers are iron-clad.
These forty-two vessels are a small minority
of those figuring on the naval list ; but the
Bureau of Construction and Repairs reports
a list of no fewer than twenty-two ves-
sels which are rotten, or in .other
respects so unseaworthy as to be only fit to
be broken up or sold, being of. absolutely
no use to the Government. Five of the
largest of these never have been finished at
all. Seveir on the list have each upwavd of
3,900 tons displacement. Three were
destined for iron armor, but are set down by
Mr. Thompson as ' ' worthless," and a fourth, -
the Boanoke, also a wooden vessel with iron
armor, "is rotten, and should be broken
up.** In addition to these, five old-style
floating gun-boxes, now used as receiving
and store ships, varying from 4,150 to
5,170 tons displacement, are pronounced
unfit for sea. One or two other vessels are
hardly thought worth repair. The large
number of tugs, dispatoh-boats, and trans-
ports, add numbers without fighting
strength.
The review is a sonry one, and is well cal-
culated, at first, to excite alarm. Compared
with the il^tish, the French, or the Italian-
Navies, our own shrinks to pigmy propor-
tions, whether as regards armament or
armor. The 80-ton and 100-ton guns pro-
vided for foreign ships make oar own 20-ton
gun, once the nuracle of artillery, seem very'
inferior, while the thickness of iron carried
by some foreign vessels app^rs equally
unpleasant for comparison with most of our
own. But while the need of rebuilding our
Navy is quite obvious, there are some con-
siderations which will simplify the problem
at the start, and make its practical solution
by no means burdensome. We do not need
to rival foreign powers in Aar naval estab-
lishment, any more than In our Army. It is
oexd^aUT true- that a Navr -euinat h*
total of twenty iron-clads for coastwise de-
fense. But this is not all. Torpedo war
fare is evidently the naval -warfare of the
immediate future, and in this . we not only
have a good start, but can, at comparatively
slight expense, bring ourselves to a level
with the most advanced naval powers.
There is now an opportunity to profit by the
experiments of foreign nations in this di-
rection, as well as by those of our own in-
ventors. Congress should be liberal in its
appropriation for the torpedo service, both
in the way of experiment and in construc-
tion, for this is at present a vital question
in the matter of coastwise defense, while
the torpedo-boat and the system of movable
torpedoes can also, of course, be equally
effectiTO in foreign seas.
As to cruising vessels, without aiming at
the extreme types of vast and costly ships
now constructed by foreign powers, it would
be easily possible to add one vessel peii
year, of a thoroughly approved type, to our
cruising fleets — (avoiding the wretched policy
of the past in ordering dozens of vessels of
a! new and untried character, which may
turn out failures. We do not see, however,
the justice or the wisdom of the Naval Com-
mittee's proposition to build new ships by
cutting down the pay of the Navy.
THE QUARREL OVER TURKEY.
There is a grotesque side to the European
strugsrle. And there is, beneath the solem-
nity of all the pending negotiations, a certain
comic element. Nobody who wishes well
for his kind desires that there shall be war.
Even the Western editor who exclaimed,
'i'Why don't England fight t Has she no back-
bone t -We want -to sell our wheat!" really
Kishesthat peace might prevail War is de-
structive of thelif e and property of the human
race, and to make good the waste of a Con-
flict, however distant it may be from any of us ,
requires a taxation, in one form or another,
which we must ultimately feel the weight
of. It is impossible that destruction and
loss shall fall on one member of the human
family without "remotely affecting all the
others. Therefore, we deplore war, wher-
ever and for whatever it is waged. Never-
theless, it is impossible to regard even the
grave complications which now threaten
Europe without some perception of the ludi-
crous side of the case.
i At the beginning of the trouble, Russia
avowed herself the protector and avenger
of the Christian subjects of Turkey. It
could not for an instant be supposed that
the Muscovite was moved by any but purely
sentimental considerations. Russia went
to war for an idea. The English view of
case was that the Bulgarian outrages
been very miich exaggerated and that
the Turk was a slandered person who would
be much better if he were left alone. The
evangelical, anti-slavery, peao6-at-anyr
price English people were horri-
fied at the idea of a Poland-crush-
ing Government pretending to have
any human sympat:iies whatever. Those
who discussed the question. Whatever might
have been their nominal sentiments, knew
that Russia's sympathy for the oppressed
Christian in Turkey was a pretext under
which was concealed a long-cherished plan
for driving the Turk out of Europe. The
English protest agunst an assault on feeble
"Turkey was a protest against a Russian con-
quest of Turkey. It was not made because
England loved Turkey, but because she
fearedRnssia. In allthediploSiatie verbiage
which clouded the question for weeks, there
was only one tangible point — the dread that
Russian arms would ultimately exclude
British influence from Turkey.
Now that the war. is oVer, tioA pour-
parlers have displaced shot and shell, the
old game of diplomacy is renewed. The
treaty of San Stofano was extorted from
Turkey by promises and threats. The
Sublime Porto was in the attitude of a man
whose foe is on his prostrate form, and who
is not in a condition to make terms, but to
t^mthem. But it should not be forgotten
that Turkey was, at the beginning, haughty
and defiant while Russia threatened. What-
ever nftty be true of the alleged interview
between Safvet. Pasha and the English
newspaper correspondent, it is undoubt-
edly true that the Turks felt that they had
been egged on to the fight, but had not
been sustained by the English influence
which had urged them forward. Mr. Ii atabd
challenged Safvbt to say in public what he
was alleged to have said in private — that
the English had betrayed Turke^, and that
henceforth tlionatiirsl alliance of the Turk
was with his ancient enemy, the Russian,
not with his vacillating sympathizer, the'
•p.nglialiititt-p. Eveiyb<)dy felt that this was
true, whether the Pasha said it or not. It
' is Indierous, however, to ;iote the present
attitode of Torkey. She is like a
courtesan who gives hes ' favors to the
stronger bully of the tM6. Her ancient
"protector " stood by and saw another win
h«r regard 1>y beating herl England's rage
over the result is the i^^ of an cAA bean
who sees his -paramour going off with an-
other man.
Bnt the t^atoe aeailssiaa^ of the Saaitisa
been profoundly stirred by an extraordinary
and romantic latrsuit. The case was an en-
tirely novel one, and no precedent bearing
upon it is to be found in the common or
statute law. While it is necessarily a mat-
ter of great interest to the legal profession,
its romantic side cannot fail to attract the
attention of persons of all ages and every
kind of sex. In fact, it Is destined to be
one of the niost celebrated cases in the an-
nals of American jurisprudence.
Some time last Winter a lady whom we
will call Mrs. Smith, who kept a boarding-
house in Sussex, took her littie girl, aged
4, with her to make a call on Mrs. Brown,
her near neighbor. Mrs. Brown was busy
in her kitchen, where she received her vis-
itor with her usual cordiality. There was
a lai^e ^e blazing in the stove, and while
the ladies were excitedly discussing the
new bonnet of the local Methodist minis-
ter's wife, the little girl incautiously sat
down on the stove-hearth. She was in-
stantiy convinced that the hearth was ex-
ceedingly hot, and on loudly bewailing the
fact, was rescued by her mother and carried
home for medical treatment. A few days
later Mrs. Smith burst in great excitement
into the room of a young law student, who
was one of her boarders, and with tears and
lamentations disclosed to him the fact that
her child was indelibly branded with the
legend, "Patented. 1872." These words
in raised letters had happened to occupy
just that part of the stove-hearth on which
the child had seated herself, and being
heated nearly to red-heat they had repro-
duced themselves on the surface of the un-
fortunate child.
The law student entered into the mother's
sorrow with much sympathy, but after he,
had in some degree calmed her mind he in-
formed her that a breach of law had been
committed. "Your child," he remarked,
" has never been patented, but she is marked
'Patented. 1872.' This is an infringement
of the statote. You falsely represent by
that brand that a child for whom no patent
has been issued is patented. This false
representation is forgery, and subjects you
to the penalty made and provided for that
crime."
Mrs. Smith was, as maor be supposed,
%reatiy alarmed at hearing this statement,
and her first impulse was to beg the young
man to save her &om a convict's celL With
a gravity suitedto the occasion, he explained
the whole law of patents. He told her
that had she desired to patent the child, she
should have either constructed a model of
it or prepared accurate drawings, with
specifications showing distinctiy what parts
of the child she claimed to have invented.
This model or these drawings she should
have forwarded to the Patent Office, and
she would then have received in due time a
patent — provided, of course, the child was
really patentable — and would have b^en
authorized to label it " Patented." " iJn-
fortunately," he pursued, " it is now too
late to take this course, and we must boldly
claim that a patent was issued, but that the
record was destroyed during the recent fire
in the Patent Office."
This suggestion cheered the spirits of Mrs.
Smith, but they were again dashed by the
further remarks of the yoipg man. He re-
minded her that the child might find it
very inoobvenient to be patented. " If we
claim" — he went on to say — " that she has
been regularly patented, it follows that the
ownership of the patent, including the child
herself, belongs to you, and will pass at
your death into -the possession of your
heirs. Holding the patent, they can pre-
vent any husband taking possession of the
girl by marriage, and they can sell, assign,
transfer, and set over the patent-right and
the accompanying girl to any purchaser.
If she is sold to a speculator or to a joint
stock company, she will find her position a
most unpleasant one. To sum up the case,
Madam, either your child is patented or she
is not. If she Is not patented, you are
guilty of forgery. It she is patented, she
is an object of barter and sale, or, in other
-words, a chattel."
This was certainly a wretohed state of
things, and Mrs. Smith, to ease her mind,
began to abuse Mrs. Brown, whose stove
had branded the unfortunate littie girL She
loudly insisted that the whole fault rested
with Mrs. Brown, and demanded to knf>w
if the latter could not be punished. The
young man, who was immensely leiarned in,
the law, thereupon began a new argument.
He told her that where there is S- wrong
there must, in the nature of things, be a
remedy. " Mrs. Brown, by means of her
stove, has done you a great wrqng. In ac-
cordance with the maxim, 'gvi faeit per
aUmnfaeitfer se,' Mrs. Brown, and not the
stove, is tiie party from whpm you must
demand redress. She has wickedly and ma-
liciously, and at the instigation of the
devil, branded your child, and thus ren-
dered you liable for an infringement of the
Patent law. It ia my opinion. Madam, that
an action for assanlt and an iwstion for
libel will both lie against Mr*; Brown,
and, ' eemble,' that thane is alio gr<)imd. for
bavins her indiatad for oraenceoMOt oC fan,
gery." FiaHlj^, ai.cer much further argu-
ment, the young man advised her to apply
to a magistrate and procure the arrest and
punishment of Mrs. Brown.
Accordingly, Mrs. Smith applied to the
Mayor, who, after mainly trying to com-
prehend the case %nd to find out what was
the precise crime alleged against Mrs.
Br^wn, compromised the matter by unoffi-
cially asking that lady to appear before him.
When both the ladies were in court, Mrs.
Smi^ prompted by the clerk, put her oom-
^laikt in the shape of a charge that Mrs.
&^wn had branded the yoathfnl Smith girl.
^i»\B latter was then marked "Exhibit A,"
and formally put in evidence, and both
coiiiplainant and defendant told their re-
spective stories.
'The result was that the conrt, in a rery
abU; and voluminous opinion, decided that
nobody was guilty of anything, but that,
with a view of avoiding the penalty of in-
frioging the Patent law, the mother must
apply to Congress for a special act declaring
the child regularly and legally patented.
If ^Congress finds time to attend to this
impbrtant matter, little Miss Smith will be
the first girl ever patented in this country,
and the legal profession will watoh with
unflagging interest the lawsuits to which
in future any infringement of the patent
may lead. ^^^^^^^^^^^^

WASffi2;QT0X, April 15.— In the Hoase to-
day, Mr. Eimmell, of Maryland, introdoeed
Montgomery Blair's long threatened bill to eco-
Eticnte a tribunal before which Mr. TiUeo
wonld have an opportunity to eonte^ the ri^ht
of Mr. Hayes to the Presidency. The bill was
ref ened to the Committee on the Judiciary, sod
what the' action of that committee vatY be OS
.the subject is entirely a matter of ee»
jeeture. Mr. Eiwtt, the Chairnun of the
committee, is known to be very pronounced in
favor of a measure of this kind, but the other
Democratic members of the committee are not
known to have expressed any decided views
upon the subject. Of the Republican members
It is safe to say tlist all, except perhaps Qes.
Butler, will oppose the bilL. The general opin-
ion among Democratic members ot the Houses
so tar as they are known to have expressed any
opinion npon the subject, is adverse to reopen-
ing the controversy, and the general sentiownt
among them is that nothing can result from
this effort. Following is the text ot the bill :
Be it enacted, tx., Th t an action in the nature ot
a quo varranto may be brought and prosecuted in
the Supreme Court of the United :jt&tea. to try and
determine the title of any oerawn holding and exer-
cising the office of President or Vice-President of tba
United States, when his elertion to such office Is d».
nied by one or more States ot tbe Union, and also
to try and determine the title ot any claimant to
such office whose election thereto Is claimed by sueh
State or States, and such action shall be coodueted
as hereafter in this act U provided.
Sec. 2. Sjich action shall be brought in the name
ot the State denying the election of the person hold-
ing the office of President or Vice-President, a* the
case mav be, and shall be commenced by complaint
signed by the Governor or Attorney -General of llie
State, and shall set forth tbe name of the person
whose title is denied, and the Sute of tphich he I: a
citizen, the time he ent^^red upon hia office, the num-
ber of Electoral voles cast at tbe election at which
he claims to have been elected, the number
ot such voles counted and declared for him,
and the number counted and dec'iared tor
the claimant or any other person or perS'DS. and if
the due appointnseat of any Elector or Glecton
whose votes were thus counted and deebired is de-
nied, the grotinds o; such denial shall be stated ; and
if the due appointment of any otheV peraons tban
those whose votes werw received and coojiled is al-
leged, the names of such persons snail bestated. with
the grounds upon which their doe appoiniment ia
claimed; and if such person or persons have
cast their votes as Electors and transmitted a cep-
tificate of them to the proper oflicers of the Senate,
that fact shall also be stated, and said ctnnplalnt
may set forth briefly any other matteia impeaching
the validitv of any of the Electoral votes counted ftrr
the defendant, or showing that voles not counted
should have been receiveti and counted for the
claimant, and the complaint shall allege that the
claimaht was only elected and is entitled to tbe
ot&ce. 'The complainant shall cooclnde with a prayer
that the title of the claimant be investigated and
declared valid, and that he be placed in pOsaeaaion of
the office. .^ t .^ ,.
SEC. 3. Upon filing the complaint with Xxm Clerfc,
the court. It in session, or, it not in session, any ona
of the Justices thereof, shall direct a summons to
issue to the defendant, and be served npon him
bv the Marshal, together with a certified
copy of tbe complaint- The summons sbwll
require the defendant to anpekr and answer
the complaint within a time fixed by the court or
Justice not exceeding 40 days after the aervlce of
the Bummous. 'The claim:mt ahjiU also be served
with a certified copy of the complaint, and he shall
thereupon be entitleu to appear in person or iiy coi^
sel in the prosecution of the action in eonnermj
with the Statet
SEC. 4. The defendant may answer the eomplaial
by asserting his own title or denying the title of Ihs
claimant, or both. If he fail to appear and an.«iwe]
within tne time prescribed, the case ahall proceed a!
upon a general denial of the complaint- Tbe issuf
thns made shall be tried by tne court, tmless the
court shall determine that the parties are en-
titled to have a jury in the case, anc
the same is not waived. It a jury, in
the opinion of the couit, be required, and be not
waived'bv tbe parties, it shall consist wf 12 persons.
selected as follows : The names of tbe ChieW tistices
or Presiding Justices of the highest courts ot the
several States shall bo placed in a box
trom which 24 names shall be drawn by
the Clerk, in the presence of the court or Chief-Jus.
tice, and the 24 whose names shall be thus drawn
shall be summoned to Washington, and from those
attending 12 shall be Uken by lot to serve on the
Jury. They shall be required to state under oath
that they can pass npon the qtiestions of fact aub-
mitled to them withont undue bia^ and no other
qualification shall be required of them.
SKC. 5. If the Supreme Court be in session at^tha
time the issue is formed as Jnentioned in the previous
section, it shall designate a day on which the trial

time, except by consent of the parties, or further
time be required to summon jurors, and from the
commencement ot the trial until iu close all
other business ot the cotirt ahall be laid
aside. If the court ' be not in session
when the issue is joined, it shall be the duty of the
Chief-Jtistlceto call a session of the court for the
tria of the case, to commence within 30 days tber»-
atter, and at ^ uch called session the court shall pos-
sess all tbe autbority and jurisdiction necessary to the
trial of tbe title of the deCendant and of the cliiimsnt
and the enforcement of its judgment thereon.
Sic. S. 'The Clerk shall issue subpeenaa upon tiM
request of either of the parties for witnesses to at-
tend before the conn and testify with or without
papers, and they may oe served in any part of the
United States by the Marshal ot the district within
>which the witness may be, or by any Deputy
of Ilia, or by any person appoipted
by the Marshal of the Snpreme Court.
On the trial copies of the certifiraies iaaned to pe^
sons as Electors, those- received and those reJecMdL
andot the votes cast by t.:em. shall be admined in

tified copies of onpers before the Canvassing or Re-
turning Board ot any State, the action of which
board is brought in question under the issoee in the
case, shall be received in evidence with the like effect
as the c4iginaL
SBC. 7. The investigation of the conrt ahall be
limited to the validity of tbe action ot the Can-
vassing or Retnming board-of any State <by whose
determination toe appointment ot tbe Electors was
declared to have been made) in receiving, rejecting,
and counting votes returned to them, and to the
competencT or eligibility if any person declared
to hav been appointed an Elector or appointed to fl II a
su|j Msed vacancy in the Electoral College, to act aa
such Elector, and in such investigation tbe court
shall receive evidence fending to show the forgery,
falsity, invaliditv, or error ot any certificate of any
Governor. Canvasser, or other officer whomsoever.
Sec S. The Indtmcnl of the court shnll be ren-

In addition tothe bill given above, Mr. Swann,
another Haryla d member, when the States
were ca' ed for pe i'. oil< and memorials, intro-
dneed tbe B air reao nti ns bi re ersn -• to this
matter adop ei by the MaryUnd I«-gislatare.
Mr. Swann movea to ref r the resolutions to
the Commit**" onthr Judiciarv. anl this was
supplemented by a mot on to re'er to • special
Committee of Fl ^en, and o the Committee of
tbe 'Whole on the state of the Union. These
several motions gave rise to considerable di>-
ensslon upon points of order, the debate.con-
tanulng until the morning hour expired,
when the entire matter went over
under the rules until Monday next. The point
of the dijietission was as to whether the resota-
tioDS came to the House in the nature of a me-
morial or petition, the Speaker holding the af-
firmative and deciding that the paper was a re-
spectful petition from a sovereign State, and aa
such, he wa« required to receive it not only
tmder the rolea of the House, bdt under the
Constitntionof the United States. Among the
Hepublicans there sras a disposition not to re-
ceive the resolutloas and aeoord them reftoreoee
to a committee, but to sommarily dispose oC
them. Gen. Banks contended that tbe reeoln^
tionsdid noteomeln the form of a petition,
and even if they did, it was competent for Mb»
House to determine whether they should be
received. They did not, in his opiidOB, belong
to that elas* possessing - special privi-
leges. Mr. Cox, of New-York, argned
that tbe resolntloBS were in the nature of • me-
morial to Congress, and the only question to
determine was the qnestion oC reference. Mr.
Stephens agreed with Gen. Benks that tt was
the right of the House te determiiae whethct
tbe paper shonld be reo^red. The Legtabtor*
of a State has a li^^ to address a psper to Cob-
greaa, butConsrees has the inherent right to
ellbiart ftiieiel refeiei— to a
WMmHtoe. Dnring the disentaioa no ■lla-
■iM was mad* to the merits at tb*

. the Senate the seme resolutions vere referred
: to the Committee on the Judiciary without a do-
• hate, except the dlaelaimer of Senator Dennla
taif resenting them. It wonld hare been hetter
had the Bepublicans permitted the reaolntion*
to take the same course in the House. Aj the
matter row stands, whan the consideration is
rtnimed on Monday next the rote must be flrat
taken on reference to the Committee of the
Whole, and it that motion be rejected, then on
the motions to refer to a special committee and
to the Committee on th-j Judiciary, respectively.
As Sir. Kimmell's bill wil! give the Committee
on the Judidsry full jurisdiction of the sabject,
nothing can be gaine;)! by refusing to refer the
resofattions to that committee, and all time
(pent in the attempt to defeat that reference
win be so much time lost If referred to the
.Committee of the Whole on tlie State of the
Cnion, a majority of the House can reach the
re*>Intions at any time, and thus precipitate a
profitless partisan discussion, which would he
distasteful to the country, and which the best
men on both sides of the House desire to avoid.
By their action toKlay the Eepublicans per-
mitted the matter to assume an importance
that does not properly belong to it, at least for
the present. The resolutions should have been
i,ennitted to quietly follow Kimmell's bill to the
Committee on the Judiciary, where, according to
present indications, the entire matter will be
foreTer buried out of sight.

Washington, April 15.— Letters have
been received in this city from Senator Sharon,
of !^vada. in which he promises to assume his
Senatorial duties about April 20. Mr. Sharon's
term o: service as a United States Senator be-
tih ^BTch 4, 1876, but thus far be is almost a
stranger to the Senate, and is personally
Onkcotrn to a majority of its members. Tt is
Mid that when Mr. Sharon arrives the Com-
mittee on Privileges and Elections will report
on the case of D. T. Corbin, who contests the
seat of Senator Butler, of South Carolina. The
committee have already oon adered all the facts
of the case, and a majority report will be made
in favor of the contestant. Mr. Corbin can
only be seated by the solid Republican vote,
and as Messrs. Patterson and Conover have
once recorded themselves in favor of Butler's
slalm to the seat, it Is not likely those gentle-
men win now reverse their former action on
that ease.
The Senate to-day passed a bill anthorizinK
the Issue of passports free to colored citizens
going to Brazil Under existing laws a charge
of $5 is made by the State Department for the
issne of each pas^rart, and this charge practi-
cally prevented many colored men from going
to Brazil fOr the purpose of being employed
in the construction of the railroad now
being built by American labor. It seems
there Is some discrimination, under the
laws of Brazil, against colored men, which
makes it necessary for colored citizens of the
United States who may visit that country to be
provided with passports. The bill simply pro-
vides tbat any colored citizens of the United
State* who may wish to go to Brazil to engage
in work upon the Maceon and Mamore Bail-
load may obtain passports free of charge, and
to that extent the laW governing the issue of
passports is suspended.
Bepresentative Hooker, of Mississippi, has
Inaugtirated another movement to remove the
trial of the timber cases in Mississippi from
Jackson, where the regular term of the United
Sutea Courts is held, to Mississippi City, which
Is in the centre of the district from which the
timber has been stolen from the public lands.
It wHI be rememliered that a bill with tl)is ob-
ject in view was recently passed by both houses
and vetoed by the President The bill now
Introduced by Mr. Hooker provides for
the holding of an additional term of the
United Stetes District and dreuit Courts
for the Southern District of Mississippi, at Mis-
sistippl City, Harrison County, commencing on
the lint Monday in August, and gives this court
jttzisdictlon in all civil and criminal eases aris-
ing la the Counties of Hancock, Harrison, Jack-
son. Green, Perry, and fenA, these being the
counties in which the timber depredations were
committed. Tho present bHI differs only. in
phraseology from the bill that was vetoed, and
it is not likely that it will escape the Exacutiva
veto even should it get throngo both houses.
The bill repealing the Bankrupt act and all
acta amendatory thereof, which was reported
from the Judiciary Committee, was passed in
th« Senate t»day by a vote of 37 to 6. Senator
HcCreery made a strong speech in favor of the
bin, and was ably supported by Senator
Whyte, who reviewed the various Bankrunt acts
at length, and pointed ont with much
effect where they had failed to give
reUef to honest debtors. Senator Matthews, .in
withdrawing his substitute, which he did after
he saw that it ' had no chance of success, ex-
plained that he was not altogether in favor of
the repeal, but that lie wonld vote for it never-
theless. Public sentiment here is decidedly
favorable to the bill as passed by the Senate,
and it is not likely Qiat it win meet with any
serious opposition in the House.
An ^ort will be made in the House to-mor-
row to go to business on the Speaker's table, fbr
the purpose of reaching the Pacific Ballroad
Sinking Fund bllL Business on the table can-
not be reached until after the expiration of the
morning hour, and the tactics of the opponents
of the Mil will be directed to prevent the House
from having a morning hour. Such a move-
ment, however, cannot succeed, particularly as
a majority of the House seem to favor the pas-
sage of the bill as it came from the Senate, and
at the expiration of one hour from the reading
of the Journal, a majority cui proceed to the
consideration of business on Vhe table, and set
aside tXL intervening matters until the particu-
lar bOl desired for eonsideratlon is reached. .
Door-keeper Field promised to appoint as As-

JJJO OP THE PATENT,
Washinoton, April 1!K — The S4nste PuCUe

tlgation this eveaingc. Mr. 8im«B Btevess, at Kews
York, was eiofs-esamined.by Geii. Bordette, of coai^
stl for the Kew:I<lria Company, MeGatrtshsa's 0|>-
ponents in the controversy. In response to qne^ -
tions as to his means of reeollectlDff after ^e
lapse of so masv yesn the precise day on ;vbkb
Pxetldent Lincoln showed him the psrchmeat
document insctibed on the back-; ** fanoche
Grande," and which the President referrsd tu ss a
signed patent. Mr. Stevens said he fixed the day l^
the date of his marriage, which took -place on the
19th of March. He law the patent en the tneced-
In; Saturday. Secretary Bewaid's reniark, when
they met six weeks subsequently, was, '' 1 think
Mr. Bates has got ahead of us," not "of ne," as in*
advertently stated on ilia direct efamina^on. Mr.
Seward was spealdnK of. some letter ssat from the
Attorney-General's ofBceto the Interior Department,
and witness understood the remark to, mean the
Attomev-OeneraL Mr. Bates hadiDtervenodinsome
way suecessfolly ajzafnst McQarrahan ; between this
time and Jalv 5 of the same year, (1870.) when he
first met and made the acqaaintance of MeGarrahas,
he had no connection with the claim ; he did not at
that time tell McGarrmhan that be himseH had seen
tho patent signed, bat imparted to McGorrahan tl^e
informatioQ in a general way that he knew the patent
waa signed.; this information was the basUof his
snbseqnent employment by McGarrahan to • ondnct
negotiations for a compromise with the -Kew-ldrla
Company, which he advertised as a matter of ex-,
pedieney, not knowine be knew the patent had been
sipied. 'After first meeting McGarrahao, he told
Mr. W. D. Stoddard, formerly Private Secretary of
President Lincoln, about his conversatiod with Mc^
Garrahan, and asked him [Stoddard] whether
he had any recoUectioa of the slimature
of the Fanocne Grande pHtent; Stoddard replied In
the aflSmattve. whereupon the witness requested him
without talking further to go hoaie and write out a
memorandum of his recollection, lock it np in a safe,
ai:d give the key to another person ; Mr. Stoddard
did 80; witnei4S never saw the memorandum ; he then
advannd Stoddard $40, with which to go
to Washlneton and exnmme the recu--d&
and Stoddard npon returning told witnn
that they had fully verified his recollection;
witness denied that he ever attempted to restrain
Stoddard from making affidavit until he [witness]
rould make his own terms with McGarrahan ; Stod-
dard's affidavit was not maJe, however, imtil after
witness was retained.
Gen. 15ardette at this point read from a letter in
which McGarTRhan wrote to Fr»nk in July, 1870,
that It was uDfortuuBte he had anything to do with
Stevens, that Stoddard, if let alone, wotlld have
given all the information, but the cormorant Stevens
wanted to gobble the whole of the benefit. 'Witness
said he knew of no reason for the
use of this language. In response to other
qoestions, he denied that it waa |tme in any sense
that' McGarrahan had negotiated for Stoddard's af-
fidavit through blm ; McGarrahan and his friends
were excited in August, 1870. by a rumor that a
patent was about to be issued to the New idrla Com-
pany. and It waa considered necessary to hate
Stoddard'a affidavit at once : *bat although witness
was one of McGarralian's counsel, it was iiot a part
of his duty to procure an affidavit from Stoddard ;
he Itnew that Judge Paschal was ia Kew-Tork oir
this business, but he [witness] had no knowledge of
the preparation of an affidavit, and did not posi-
tively know that Stoddard had made one ;
he knew that Stoddard had either made
an affidavit or testified before the Hotise
committee, but did not remember which.'
Mr. Stevens replied that he refrained from testifying
because. In the first plnce, he believed the testimony,
of Mr. Stoddard was sufficient to estahllch the signa-
ture, of the patent, and also because he had a pe.'
cuniary interest In the claim, and was not willing to
appear to be testifyluir in his own interests. He had
become divested of his pecuniary intest when' the
negotiations for a compromUe failed. In November
or Decemt>er, and was, therefore, now willing to
teati^ fully. In reply to a question of Senator
fnomb, witness explained thst McGarrahan did not
know that he had personal knowledge of the pateat
being signed, but that be knew Stoddard knew it.
Gen. Burdette then read from the witness* testi-
mony on Saturday his statement that he said to Mc-
Garrahan and Mr. 'Woodbridge on the 5th of July,
1870, "the patent was signeo: I saw it. " Witness
again stated that he had not told the details to any
one untU long afterward. He had no recollection of
informing Fredeinck Frank in .Tuly, 1870, of the con*
versation between President Lincoln and Thaddeos
Stevens.
Connsel for the New-ldria Company suggested
that tlio diary of Thaddeu!- Stevens, which the wit.
ness said be had refreshed his memory with, should
be produced.
Witness stated that It was now in London, but da-
dined to say in whose possession.
The committee were also asked to instruct wit^
ness to produce bis own letter^book, from' which he
had extracted several pages a:i contaming all that
was pertinent to this controversy.
"Without action on the request, the committee ad*
jODZsed until next Wednesday evening.

THE COLLECTOR AND IMPORTERS,
IMPORTANT DECISIONS MADE BY THE
. UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT — THE
TAX ON IMPORTATIONS.
Washington, April 15.— The foUowing de-
cisions, of Interest to merchants in New-York and
importers elsewhere, were rendered in the United
States Supreme Court to-day :
No. CIS — Arthur^ Col tetor. <£■&. u. Lahey et oZ. —
Error to the Circuit Court for the Southern District
of NeW-York.— This was the siQmuuice of a judg-
ment for the importers on the importation of thread
lace, the Collector having imposed 60 per cent, duty,
asfor a maaafaeture of oilk, which wus doable the
amonnt imposed by a previous law oa the specific
article. The ■ followina are the grounds of the
decision: When Congress has designated an article
by its specifie name, and imposed a duty upon it by
such oame, general terms in a subsequent act. or In
a later part of tbe same act. although snfGciently
broad to comprehend such article, are not applica-
ble to it. The expression " not otherwise provided
for," in the eighth section of the act of 1864, does
not deprive these rales of their ordinary application.
Mr. Justice Hunt delivered the opiuion.
No. 609 — ArVniT, Collector, va. jfnkaup et oL — ^Er-
ror to the Circuit Court for the Southern District of
New-Yoik. — In this case the court below ruled that
where the Collector imposes a duty, and apoeal is
taken from his decision, it is for him to show that
the article assessed is in fact such a manufucture as
claimed by the asse^vment. But it is here hela that
where a party questions the decision of the Collector
in the court, nlleeiug .i violation of law by his official
acta, it is for him to show his alIef;ations to be true ;
that the case is like that of a defendant who alleges
that certain of his property levied upon by the Sher-
iff ia exempt from execution, he must prove it. Re-
versed. Mr. Justice Hunt delivered the opinion.
No. 516 — At fiur r». Hugt/ield et al. — Error to the
Circuit Court for tl- e Southern District of New-York.
— Id tbis case spectacles mMdo of kIsrs and steel are
held to be dutiable under section 9 of the act of
1864, providing a tariff on "pebblea for spectacles
and manufactures of glass, orot which glass is a com*
pnneot m.it( ria', not otherwise provided for. " and' not
under the third section of the act, as for "manufac-
tures of steel, or of which steel is a component part,
not otherwise provided for," which is an alflmiance
of the views of the importers and of the docislon be-
low. Mr. Justice Hunt delivered the opinion.
No. 304 — Murphy, Collector, vs. Areimon et oL—
Error to the Circuit Court for the Southern District
of New- York, — In this case the court held that nitro-
benzole is not to be rated by the Collector as an es-
sential ell and subjected to 50 per cent, ad valorem,
but as a n on -enumerated article, at 40 per cent.,
that being the highest payable on either of its eon-
stitueuta AiSrmed. Mr. Justice Hunt delivered
the opinion.
No. 607— ArtAtir. CoUector. vt. Sleptioni «f aL^
Error to the Circuit Court for the Southern Dis-
trict of New-York.— In this case the court hold that
chocolate, althoush put op in boxes containing a
gfven quantity of bricks, each Is dutiable as chocolate
under the Revised Statutes, and not as " confec-
tions," under the act of 1864. Affirmed. Mr. Jus-
tice Uunrdelivered the opinion.
No. 517— Arthur, CoUeetor, r». Jforruon et aL —
Error to the Cirt- nit Court for the Southern District
of New. York. — This was the case of an importation
of veils, which the Collector rated as "silk veils,"
while the importer denominated them as " crape
veils," although they were made of silk. The de-
cision affirms the theory of the Importers, the court
holding that the commercial designation of the article
having been fixed by a specific duty at a lower rate
it is not affected bv the later legislation. Affirmed.
Mr. Justice Hunt delivered the opinion.
No. 515^J.rtAur. Collector, vs. Zimmerman. — Er-
ror to the Circtiit Court for the Southern District of
New- York. — In this case it is decided that " hat
braids," so commerciallvknowr and exclusively used,
are dutiable nnder the acts of 1861 and 1862. and
not as "cotton br«lds" or "lace trimmings" under
the act of 1864. holding that by these nets and the
Kevi ed Stntoies Congrexs has established and recog-
nized a distinction between the two classes. Af-
firmed. Mr. Jtjstlce Hunt delivered the opinion.

West Virginia, the Supreme Cotirt of that Sute hav-
ing affirmed the last sentence. Application waa made
to the Chief J^ustlce for a writ of error to the State
court, on the ground that the law of tha State of
West Vln^ia prohibiting colored citizens from serv-
ing on juries ia that State is in violation of the Con-
stitution and sutates of the United Sutes. The
Chief-Justice took the papers and record of
the case in the State court, and, after
the adjournment of the Supreme Court
to-day and consultation with the Associate Justices,
be awarded the writ of error. The Arst trial of this
case was in 1872, and Strander has been under sen-
tence of death ever since. The same qnestions pre-
sented in this case were also presented in the cele*
brHted case of the negro John ToUver, tried at
Martinsburg, West Va.. but before the at-
torneys in this case perfected the case for
the Supreme Court of the United States, ToUver
was taken from the jail by the mob and hanged. It
appeared afterward that Toliver was innocent of the
murder of whirh he was accused. As West Vindnla
I. the only State which prohibits colored men from
sitting on jnriea the case presented to the Ciiief-
Jttstice this morning is an intacestiug one.
AMUSEMENTS.
BBIEP MENTION.
The change of programme incidental to Mon-
day performances at the Theatre Comiqoe brought
Messrs. Harrigan and Hart before the public yes-
terday evening, in a new and characteristic sketdt,
written by ifr. Harrigan and called " Dgyle Broth-
era."
Mr. F. Bergner's annual concert takes place
at Cfaickering Hall on Tuesday evening. April 3a
Among the incidents of the performance Is to be the
reappearance of the old string quartet, consisting of
Mr* Theodore Thomas, Mr. Joseph Mosentbal, Mr.
Geotge Matzka, and Mr. Bergner.
The present weeh is to be the last of Miss
Maggie MiteiMirs engagement as • the Standard
Ttae^r^.: She aeU there in "The Pearl of Savor,"
adiaiia adapted from the French play called **La
Grftce^t Dieti," and illustrative of the perils of a
cottntry girl in Paris. "The Pearl of Savoy "Is an
old piece, and Miss Magsie Mitchell's representation
of the heroine is too familiar to the local public, "both
in respect of the cliaraeteristics of the personage
and the ms&ilexisms of the performer, to make fur-
ther zaferenee to the sabject at all interesting.

snperi> view of ^he broad TappSn Zee, ftiraSshed
rid^ and comfortably, -and sheltsThig'one M the
moat vshuble collection's of pictures in the eoontry—
was yesterday morning, in ttireef short holira, ntteriy
mined by Are. The ruined bolldlztg was the
property of 31r. Heber R. Bishop, a retired sngar
factor, who was until two or three years ago active-
ly in business in Caba. Fortwd Tsaztpaathe has
devoted himself exehirively to the care of hlfc prop-
. erty at Irvlngton, where this house was situated.
The btUIding was one of unusuaUy U^ga proportions,
having a front of about 175 feet in length. It
waa greeted abont 15 years aao by Mr.
James Cunningham, but an exteialon had
just - been added by Mr. Blahon, tha
work having been begun abont a year ago. As this
extension was constructed in a very car^fnl and sub-
stantial manner the work was slow, hnt the task was
so far completed that the decorators were putting on
the finishing touches, and Mr. Bishop and his family,
who have been spending the Winter at the Bucking-
ham Hotel, while the alterationa were being made in
their home, were expecting to move into the house
on Thursday. The completed boildlng made
a strong impression upon all visitors to Irvlngton.
As seen from the river, it presented a pleasing and
dignified picture, standing well up on the steep hill-
side, surrounded by broad lawns and long terraces,
and flanked by spacious greenhouses, and substan-
tial bams. The house waa on Broadway, nearly a
mile from the Irvlngton depot. Its heavy walls were
of l&iestone rock, hewn out of the hillside upon
which the edifice was built. Constructed in an ir-
regular manner. It was really in three sections,
ranged in a line bearing north and south, the long
front commanding an extensive view up and down
the Hudson and across the Tappan Zee to Nyack,
Piedmont, and the hilla of Rockland County. The
Bonthermost section— that just completed— -was
abont 50 feet square and three stories in height. In
the basement was a bllllard-room and a bowling alley
that extended under the old building. The first
floor contained one large room that was to be the
"living room." 40 by 26 feet, and the floor above
was divided into spadous bed chambers. The mid-
dle section was two stories in height above the base-
ment the first story being divided into a parlor,
library, dining-room, hall, and study, or office, and
the second containing sleeping-rooma. The third
section was a low one of two storiea the first floor
containingthe kitchen and pantriea, while the aer-
vants* rooms were overhead.
During Mr. Bishop's absence In this Cfty the valu-
able pictures which had adorned the walls of the
house were wrapped in cloths and piled up in, the
study, which was on the first floor of the middle sec-
tion of the building. This precaution had been taken
so that in case of fire at any time they could readily be
removed, and 3Ir. Bishop had instructed the two
servants who lived in the hotise to think first of the
paintingsif fireahouldoccur. Yesterday morning about
3:30 o'clock, as Thomas DulT, of Irvlngton, was
coming along the road from Tarrytown toward Ir-
vlngton, he saw a bright blaze In all the windows of
the new part of the building. He shouted fire, and
then hurried to the lodge, which is on the road about
100 yards from the house, and woke McKenzlc, the
lodge-keeper. Before thetwomen reached the house
the coachman, who slept in the kitchen, was awakened
by the smoke, which made him cough. Opening his
door, he saw the light of the fire, and be immediate-
Jy aroused his companion in the next loom. The
two hurried down stairs into the main hall, and tried
to open the front door. The flames andsmoke drove
them back. They then made their way into the
kitchen, and theoee to the study, and began
to remove the pictures that stood against
the walls. McKenzie and Duff now arrived,
and the former, remembering that Mr. Bishop bad
told him that the largest pointing waa a Murillo, and
a very valuable piece of propeiigr, that should be
first removed In an emergency, did his utmost to get
it out. His efforts were unsuccessful. He had been
told to cut it out of the frame if he could not get it
out otherwise, and he had slashed it across one end
and along one side, whtn the flames burst
through from the floor below, scorching his
beard and driving out all the occupants of the room.
In spite of the heat and smoke about 27 pictures
were removed to the lawn outside, and a few trunks
and bundles of clothing that were stored in the loft
above the kitchen were thrown out.
By this time Mr. John A Bryan and Mr. George
D. Morgan, near neighbors of Mr. Bishops, and
about 50 other persons had gathered about the
burning building, but Mr. Morgan's efforts w«re di-
rected to saving his own house, which was
in imminent danger. The flames had
broken .through the windows in the new section,
and were rapidly rising from the ground floor in the
two other sections. I^e house was furnished com-
pletely with apparatus for extinguishing fires, a sup-
ply of water coming from a reservoir on the hill
above the building, and five fire-plugs and hone being
provided to guard against accident. So rapidly had
the flames made headway that none of the
applivices could be used. Irvlngton has no fire de-
partment, and the alarm did not reach Tarrytown.
three miles away. In six hours the whole strnCture
was a mass of smoldering rains. A mansion that
was worth, with its furniture and the pictures that
were lost, about $150,000, was reduced to ashes.
The house and its fumtture may be replaced, but the
loss of the pictures can never be made good.
Mr. Bishop was telegraphed for at 5 o'clock and
reached the scene of the fire at 7 o'clock. He found
that out of about 80 patntinzs he had lost all but 23.
He had also lost a large namtwr of valuable bronzes
and other articles of twrtu with which the hotise Was
abundantly furnished. The most valuable paint*
ing burned waa an "Annunciation." by MuriUs.
The authorship of the plcttire was con-
sidered well establiahed. It wis bought
by Mr. Bishop, at the time of Queen Isabella's abdi-
cation, from the Marqtils De Moral, of Madrid. It
was about 10 by 7 feet In size, and contained large
flgures of the Virgin and tho Angel Gabriel, who
were observed by God the Father from a halo of
clouds in which floated a host of cherubs. Escosnra,
when he was In thia country recently, estlniuted
the picture to be worth from 930,000 to $40,-
000. Dnring the French invasion of Spain the
picture had l^n folded away in a store-room, and
the creases made by this severe usage were risible
through the varnish on its face- "An Officer Lead-
ing a Charge " and a "Scene in Paris Daring the
Commnne," both by Detaille, the first worth $2,500
and the last $500, were lost. A clever sketch of a
bed of flowers and a grassy bank, made
on the premiies of Mr. Bishop by Esco-
sura, duiing a visit to the house, and
finished in three hours and at one sitting, was also
lost. Two pictures by Bierstodt — a "Scene in the
Wind River Mountains." 24 by 18 inches, worth
$1,200, and a " View on the Rhine," a small pic-
ture, both in the artist's best style, were burned.
Among the other oaintings daaCroyed were a
"Marine View," byHerzog; Jules Breton's "Fish.
erman'aDaughter,"worth$l,500or$1.800:a "View
neor^wla." by Lambinet ; "After the Bath," by
Meyer von Bremen ; " Interior of an Old Hall." by
Hateger, of whom there are only two or three ex-
amples In this country ; a Delaroche from the John-
ston coUecthm ; an Interior, "Sheep and Fowls."

aamed Tecterdey hefere Judge Leirrenee end e jaxy^
in Sapiexne Goi^t, PertlH. The pleiatiff ires ee-

boazdlnc-henee keepers. . The defendant mw
also pEesent, bat Miss Olney did not make ber
appeazanca nntU late in the aftereoon.
The dtnct ttzasiiaatios of Mr. Pickering the Boston
lawyer, was resumed at the opening of the eonrt, by
Mr. Ten E^ek. of oonnsel for the plaintiff. Continn*
hag his Interview between Mr. and Mrs. Newell, on
Anc. 15, 1874 he testified as follows : Mrs. Newell
said that on her hoaband's retom from Europe with
Miss Olney he Tisited her and demanded that she
aboold write a letter declaring that he had always
tieated her well, and that his eondoet was nnim- ,
peaehable ; she replied that it was impossible for her
to write sneh a letter, inasmneh as -from
evidence in her possession she was conrlneed that he
had been gnilty of adnltery witb Miss Olney ; he in*
sisted that she shonld write the letter, threatening
' that if she did not he would m%ke it to hot for her
that she would be unable to remain in Boston, that
he' would go te witness and induce him to withdraw
• from the Bordman wiU ease, that he would adver-
tise her in a momins or evening newspaper, and that
he would withdraw his sapport trom her, never
again giving her a dollar ; he urged that under the
eireumstances it would be better for her to write the
letter for his benefit. Mrs. Newell said that she per-
sisted in her refneal to write the letter, and he left
the house repeating his threats, and reiterating
his charges that her immoral conduct had
been the cause of physical troubles to him.
The witness eontinaed that, during the conversation
he was detailing, Mrs. Newell said that she had al-
ways been willing to live with him in this City ; that
ahe had endeavored to take up her residence in New-
York witn him, but he had put her off ; when her
husband demanded from her the letters of Miss
Olney to him. which she had found, she refused to
give theor up, telling him that she was afraid he
would bum them, so that they could not be used
against him.
On cross examination by Mr. Shafer witness was
handed an envelope and asked if the writing upon it
was that of Mrs. Newell. He reolied that he be-
lieved it was, althon^ it differed somewhat from her
{ffesent style. Mr. Shafer told him to read the ad-
dress, which was *' ^'lUuun H. Bordman, Ko. 37
India Wharf, Boston. '* The inclosed letter was read
to the jury by Mr. X H. Y. Arnold, of counsel for
the defendant. This course was pursued
with a number of other letters, all of
. which were said by the witbess to be in the band-
^■rriting of Mrs. Newell and addressed to Mr. Bord-
uan, now deceased, of whose estate Mrs. Newell is
a claimant in a suit pending in the United States
Circuit Court in Massachusetts on the ground that
ahe was his adopted daughter. Some of the letters
were inclosed in two envelopes. These were dated
at Paris. France. The outer envelope was directed
^to " William EL Bordman, ?p8ton, Mass.," while the
' inner bore the business address of Mr. Bordman and
vras marked " private." Most of the letters were
without anv signature other than three little pen
dots, the others were signed " Anna." The pamose
of their introduction was to show that Mrs. Newell
sustained Ulieit relations with Mr. Bordman before
and after her marriage.
The first letter read was one In which Mrs. New-
ell, then Miss Anna Maria TUton, informed Mr.
Bordmut of the offer of marriage made to her by the
defendant in the present suit. Two days later the
following letter was sent by the plMntlfl to Mr.
Bordman. I>uring its reading Mrs. Newell bowed
her head and wept :
BosTow. May 3, 1865.
Mt DxarXST FBIXin> : I have been to ascertain
the prices of black silk. I find that very Kood
ones oan be had for ^ per yard, ranging from
that price to $8 50 and $4, and even higher,
and I ^an buy them for S2 50 — not very good.
It will take 13^ yards for a dress, and then
' there wiV be trimmings, lining, A^e.. to be had. This
will malv it too expenslTe, and I had rather save
some of tbfi expense for something besides. Thus I
shall ab«i€on the thdnght. ^ You are very kind, and
■I thank yoa a thousand times.
In regard to other matters I will try and do as you

greaier would 43e mv happiness could I know thst
VuU JataX day wonld find me in that lUile hou*e
-when the "wa»Lryare at rest and the wicked cease
from troubling." I have always said thst I would
never scceot any position where I could not see the
<f«are«f and bett fxienA' 1 ever had. I shall not ac-
cept such position willinjzl^, bnt with the deepest re-
gret. There is butfone thing that renders it a duty
for me. That is, to relieve you of that which I have
long felt to be a btirden and trouble. I ought to
haveimore fully reallaad it belore, bnt I have seen with
diffenpnt eyes than can be possible for yon to see
with. I have and do feel that there can be no hard'
ship, no tuffering, but what I conld with pUa^ure

p. S. — Please excuse wifiting, for I can scarcely see.
Tears will flow.
In a letter dated ^Boston. Mar 15, 1865. the
writer says :
Mt Dbabsst Fbievi> : Ibegthatyou wfU excuse the

friend. I earnestly be^ that you will advise me at

came on Friday momisic last, and has just left for
New-York. He desired to sail for Em ope the 24th
of the present mouthy and desired me to go with
him. As I told yoa wlien I last saw yon that a de-
cision must be made at this time, I told Mr. I4 . it
woxUd be impossible for me to be ready if I shonld
decide to 1^ at another time, or decide to accept of
his offer. Hisr^lyiathat he shall defer goiog untu the
7th of June, at which time I must be ready and go
with him, (being married- on the 5th,) or our ac-
quaintance at that time shall end forever. He will
not leave the offer to be accepted on his return. He
says I must say "?es." and mcsteo with him at
this time, or it will be "No" with him.
I beg of 700 at this time to tell me what to say,
snd what 1 had better do. Please do. If I shall not
see you, please do let me hear from you soon. He
wishes to hear my decision by Friday morning of
this week that he may engage sUte-room for the 7tii

At the side oC onaofrthe pagesot the letterwaa
the following :
** Believe my devotednees of thoni^t, of heatt,

written to you before."
It was apparently immediately after 3flBs mton
had promised to marry Newell that she wrote the
following piteous letter to Mr. Bordman :
B08TOW, May 23, 1865.
Mt Pxabxst FKXXlfD : I have waited, hoping that
I'might have one word from you regarding the sath

I have accepted mr fate. Would, my dearest friend,
that It conld havebeen la your power to save me
from such a enMC cnitfi fate, but such is not reason-
able for me to expect ; but it seems omel for me to
Bsy adieu to the only one I feroe, the *m« / worthip,

jho feeling of love for. nor one word of affection,
bnt to the contrary.

I hava said that I will go to Europe on the 7th of
June, being married on the 5th ^r 6th of the same. I
suppose on the evening of the 6th, but my winttrt
desire and mv-fervent prayer are that that eventng
may find my' eyes closed in death and the bridu
robe may be my shroud.
My dear friend, forgiveme. but lam moat-vnhappy
and death would be a relief, but I will forbear. Can
I see yon once more t Is it asking too mnch f My
dearest friend, I told Mr. N. that I would be married
to no one who would not permit my best friend to

be as welcome to my friend as to myself. Darling,
it is with tears of agony that I write thus. iwiU

Mr. Pickering s^d In response to Ur. Shafer that
he had seen a ladynamed^nokley in Boston, and had
understood that she kept a boarding-house at which
Mrs. Newell had lived after her zetum from Europe
in 1865. A letter dated Aug. 30. 1865, and contain-
ing the foUowing, was then read : ^
Mt Owh Dsaksst Fbiind: Ispolrato Mrs. H.
this moraine aboat yoar calling npon me, £e. She
told me to have yon come as often as yoa liked, and
also for you to remain as long as was agreeable to
yon. That any one who came to see me was ojirayt
welcome at her house. And she hoped when you
should coHe again you wonld not feel that you must
hasten away. Darling, if you do not go away to-
day, please come and spend the evening with me.
Please, dear,- come early.
. Sitting at the bedside of her sick brother at Reed's
Ferry, N. H., on Sept 7, 1865. Mrs. Newell wrote
the following:
" I lookat those around me. and wish that I could
sleep forever ; sleep the sleep that knows no waking
— hanny state of forgefulness. I fancy, darling, I
hear you say, ' yoa must not feel so.' Would that It
could be possible for me to feel differently. I am
sure, darliDg, if you should feel as unhappy for one
day as I do yon would think with me. Sweet one.'!
do DOt wish to cause you one moment of pain, and I
wiU try to keep my nnfaappiaess to myself, even
though I am reminded that I have no right to love
all that makes life dear to me.
" Dearest. I have a heart, but now no one can ever
know the depth of feeling in that heart — ^it must al-
ways be silent. If. darling. I could have known you
as woU on the evening I Inst walked with you. not
four months ago. oh ! then I could have been happy
now. Bnt no one is in fault, and I will not reSect.
" Darliog. you are very kind to come and visit me.
and I thank you many, many times, and I regret that
I cannot rai^e it more pleasant for you, bnt my
heart is sad, and I cannot oe gay. Bnt I will try and
be content with the hope of some day being liappy
in my lost little home. "
In a letter dated Reed's Ferry, Sept. 11. 1S65. the
writer declares that Mr. Bordman is " the only lit-
tle sunshine " she has ; and In one written two daj-s
later, she says :
"I wish. darling.that I knew that It gives you as
mnch pleasure as It does me for you to pass your
time with me. I fear that U does not, and that yon
are so very kind that yoa will deprive yourself of
pleasares for the sake of indulging me."
In November, 1S65, Mr. and Mrs*. Newell started
for Europe. Before goiue Mrs. Newell wrote to Mr.
Bordman, inviting htm to foliow her to Paris, and
thanking him for his previous kind visits to her. In
the nostscriot were the words, " Darling, allttle kiss
for you." The envelope in which this was inclosed
was indorsed "A. M. T.. Nov. 9. 1865. In case of
accident to me this note is to be burned, as it is, an-
opened. William H. Boniman." In other letters
from Paris "Anna*' told the old gentleman of her
tmceasing love for him. asked him to visit her abroad
so that he might escort her to Carlsbad, whither
doctors had ordered ber. and also called upon him
for some money. The last letter read was dated
April 16, 1872. When all the letters had been read,
Mr. Shafor continued his cross-examination of Mr.
Pickering. The witness admitted that he had es-
corted the plaintiff in Boston. Providence, Martha's
Vineyard, Greenwood,Msss., Saratoga. Irinceton, and
New- York ; she had lived in his honne while his wife
and daughter were absent at the White Monntains,
but while his sons aad sister-in-law were at home.
Mr. Pickering said he had been informed thnt Mrs.
Newell was bom in Deerfield, Mass.: he believed
that she was a milliner to Boston in 1853. and a
clairvoyant In Providence in 1850: she advertised
herself by means of an enzraving representing, ao-
cordtng to Mr. Shafer. '*au angel coming ont of a
eload, and carrying a bunch of hyson."
The hearing was adjourned until this morning.
OTHER SUITS POK DIVOBCE.
Emma L. Carrier, who U a minor, brought
suit in the Court of Common Pless recently for a
hmited divorce from her husband, Oeorge L. Carrier,
on the ground of his alleged cruelty. They were
married in this City on June 27, 1876. and lived
t<^ther tinti] February, 1877. A child was bom to
them on Oct. 4^ 1876. Mr. Carrier defended the
suit, which was sent to a Referee. The latter re-
ported in favor of the wife, and the case was then
submitted to Chief Jtistloe Daly on a motion to con-
firm the report In the opinion, which was handed
down yesterday, the Chief -Justice says, among other
things, that the Referee was not warranted in be-
lieving the testimony of a plaintiff In a divorce ease
as to the alleged cruel treatment when her character
for truth and veracity — as in this case — was im-
peached, snd where there was no witness to sustain
her character in that respect. The evidence of the
impeachiog witnesses was that Mrs. Carrier is not
truthful and that her hosband is. The application
for the divorce is denied.
Another limited divorce scdt. that brought by
Vasntt F. Mildeberger against Oliver H. Mlldeberger,
was before Chief-Justice Dal^ yesterday. In this
case the pHrtles were mamed on June 20, 1852,
and lived together for 20 yesrs. They have two
children who have attained their majority. Mrs.
MildeDerger says her hnsband abandoned ber, bnt
this he denies. A Referee, to whom the case was
sent, took testimony, and reported in favor of Mrs.
Mlldebergei. Uer Income is $2,700 per year, while
her htubuid's is $4,700. Tnese facts were taken
notice of by the Referee, who reported chat Mrs.
Mlldeberger shonld be awsrdrd $1,000 per year as
alimony, thus making her income equal to that of
her husband. Some argument was bad yesterday on a
motion to confirm the report, bnt it was adjourned
until to-morrow for a furtner hearing.
Mary A. Macdonalo's suit for divorce from her
husband. James Macdonald. was before Jndge Dono-
hne. in the ^supreme Court, yesterday, and the plain-
ttff was awarded $200 as a counsel fee and $25 per
week as alimony. A motion to change the place of
trial to Essex County was denied.
HHlKabeth Thofel, who is 14 years old. and who
was married to a barber named William Thofel on
Dec. 20, 1877, has broucht an action in the Sunreme
Conrt for a divorce from him on the ground of bis
alleged intimacy with another woman. Ko answer
or demurrer has been interposed by Mr. Thofel, and
Judge Donohue yesterday retened the case to
Frederick W. Loew.
A CURIOUS BREACH OF PROMISE SUIT,
The breach of promise suit of Mrs. Louisa
Ouliek i^^inst her uncle, Peter Qulick, was' to have
been called to trial in the Middlesex County Circuit
Court, at New-Brunswick, N. J., yesterday momiuff.
Judge Scudder was prevented by illness from being
in attendance, and the trial was postponed till to-day.
HoiL. Charles H. Winfleld, of Jersey City, represents
Miss Gulick, while the defense will be conducted by
Attorney-General Stockton. The defendant, who is
50 years of age, is the father of a daughter as old as
the pl^ntiff. Mies. Ouliek will show, or try to show,
that she had lived for 30 years or more with her
father ; that after her father's death the Hged defend-
ant, for the furtherance of his mntrimonisl designs,
invited her to bis house ; that she went, and while
living there was the' recipient at his hands of many
delicate little attentions which only the warmest af-
fection could suggest ; that he finally made his prop-
osition of marriage, and she accepted ; tbit he even
went so far as to consult a minister as to the cost,
Erobably, of the marriage ceremony ; and that after
aving gone as far as that, he suddenly changed his
mind, and refused to perform his oontnct. Mr. Gu-
lick will, on the other hand, endeavor to show that
the delicate attentions came from her side, and not
from his ; that, copying after Mrs. Bardell, she
sometimes threw a pillow on hia knees, and insisted
upon resting her head npon it In the presence of
strangers, who might be made witnesses, and finally,
that she actually goaded him to make the visit "tothe
minister. ^^^^^

OFFICSB.
The fonenl of the late CoL James R. Hitch-
eoek, commander of the Ninth Bagtmeot, National
Guard, took place yesterday. The several regiments
comprising tbe Second Brigade assembled at their
Xfepeetlve armories at 10 A. M., and marched
to the residenes of the late Colonel, No. 7 East For-
ty-sizth-street After all the' military orgaaizariona
had assembled, Bev. Comelitu Brett, o( Bergen
Ohnreh, Jersey City, delivered a short prayex; and
the eort^ started for the Dnteh Beformed Church.
Porty-elghth-atreet and FIfth-avenne. The edifice
waa crowded to its utmost capacity. A considerable
portion of the main floor was allotted to the ofBcera
of the several raiments of the First Division,
National Guard, in uniform, all of which were
r^resented, excepting the Twenty-second B^ment.
The floral decorations, which were very tasteful,
were arranged along the lower sten of
the flight of stairs leading to the chaneeL
The central figure represented a broken eolnmn,
oyer five feet high. Its base was composed of blush
roses, and the shaft was wrought in uridte flowen
and tube roses. On the face of the shaft was a
representation of the regimental Insignia— a figure
" 9 "—upon a blue circlet, surrounded by a Maltese
cross composed of r^d eomations. Ttiis column
was flanked by four pillows composed of white flow-
ers, with borders of calls lilies. Upon one was the
word " Rest " wrought in violets, and surmounted
by a white dove w;th outstretched wings, while the
others bore the legends, " Our First Captain " — a
tribute from Company D— '.' Company B, Ninth
Regiment,'* and " Company C, Ninth Regiment."
A guard, composed of six members of the Ninth
Regiment, In fnll uniform, patrolled the two side
aisles of the church, and a similar number preserved
order in the vestibule. The funeral party was met
at tbe entrance by Rev. Dr. William Ormiston. who
preceded the procession through the central aisle to
the chancel reading the. opening sentences of the
burial service as he walked. Ue was assisted
in conducting the snbse<quent services by Rev.
E. C. Houghton, Chaplain of tbe Ninth Regi-
ment, and Rev. Mr. Brett. The body of tbe
dead officer was a* tired in his full-dress uniform as
Colonel, and encased in a caslcet covered with black
cloth and having oxydized silver ornaments and bar
handles. Upon the lid was a plate Inscribed with the
name, dates of birth and death of Col. Hitchcock.
The cap, sword, epaulets, and belt of the deceased,
and a lame wreath of white tiowers rested on the
casket. The music of the service was performed by
a quartet choir under the direction ot Prof. M. A.
Ward. The programme was very simple, in defer-
ence to the wishes of Mrs. Hitchcock. At tbe open-
ing of the service tbe psalm "Lord let me ^ow

death to die," and " Abide with me," ^re sung.
After Chaplain Houghton had read the psalm be-
ginning "Man bom of woman is of few days." an
address was delivered by Rev. Mr. Brett. In the
course of his remarks he said that "twenty-seven
years afo two boys clasped bands in the porch of a
house of God at Staten Island. One was a stranger
In that village: the other was a native of the place.'*
But there was such a hearty welcome on one
side that the speaker bad never foigbtten it. One
of those boys was lying dead beK>re him, and
the other was "delivering the sad enlopv at his fu*
neral." It was because the speaker had seen more
of the deceased in early life that he tboufrbt of James
Hitchcock OS ahoy. They had lived side by side,
and roamed together in their " Island home." When
a boy James Hitchcock was noble, brave, and pure
He was endowed with a rugged constitution, and
took the lead in all ooji^h sports. '' As we talked
over spiritual matters in 185 (-8." said the soeak-
er, "we were sincere and earnest, and we knelt side
by side for confirmation." The speaker then no-
ticed briefly the various important events in the life
of Col. Hitchcock, and said, in conclusion, that the
Colonel " was sacrificed on the altar of Bis country
as surely as though lie had fallen • n the battlefield.**
During his campaign in West A'' an' last Summer,
he had suffered from the neat of ^ he iun, and to this
be owed his death. Ho had been a urave soldier, and
as a member of that chnrch he was beloved as he
was by the regiment. Rev. Dr. Ormiston pro-
nounced the benediction, after which the lid of
the casket was removed, and those pressnt
were permitted to view tbe features nf the
deceased. The casket was borne from the church
upon the shotilders of six members of tbe regiment,
in uniform, the oreani^t meanwhile playing Beetho-

60 per cent. He was in arrears for interest in 1872,

costs, &c., and the suits were practically abandoned,
thoiu;h no formal orders of diseonttnuance were en-

AND WABBLE won BT THE, FORMER —
WAHLSTROM PLATS HIS MOST BRILLIANT
OAHE IN THE TOURNAMENT WITH SEXTON,
WINNING BY A SCORE OP 11 TO 5.
The second week of the grand national 15-
baU pool tournament was opened yesterday after-
noon at the Union-Square Billiard Rooms, with a
three hours* match between George Frey and Clark
Wilson, in which the latter gained a victory by a
score of 11 to 10. the entire series of 21 games being
played to decide the stru^e. Slosson and Rudolphe
then crossed cues in a much shorter match, which
tenmnated in Slosson's favor by a score of
11 to 7. The evening display began with a friendly
match between Warble and "Joe" Dion.- Warble
won the lead in the first game, but Dion placed the
game on his string after several innings. Warble
scored the second game rapidly, and then,yielded the
third game to Dion, who at this point was not play-
ing with any particular vim. He scored two games
in succession, however, and then gave way to Warble
in the fifth. In the eighth game, in which Dion
was havmg it all his own. way, Warble es-
sayed to drive a ball in an end pocket, but
striking the angle, ifbounded back and ran over to a
side pocket, in the cnsbions of which it became
"jawed." "Oh; Lordl" exclaimed Warble, as it
appeared about to glide into the pocket by a
"scratch." He gave a sigh of relief as it stood still
on the edge, uid took his seat, allowing Dion to
skunk him with the best possible ^ace. Warble
"talked" to the balls repeatedly thereafter, some-
times causing merriment among the spectators.
Dion won the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth games In
succession, in the latter makings a position shot
that elidted great applause. Warble wam now getting
mariu with singular regularity, and sometimes
knocked his own ball ofC the table, and aa a natural
result the tnirteenth game followed the wake of the
preceding three and was added to Dion's stiing.
Warble won the fourteenth amid applause, Diop
making some remarkably poor shots. By some very
fine play he also won the fifteenth game, when it
was apoarently lost to him, its addition to his score
being enthusiastically greeted by the spectators.
Warole bad put on his coat and hat and taken a seat
in the seventeenth inning, conceding the match to
Dion, but the latter missing, he tuok off his hst and
coat and won the ganie. amid much laughter. Dion's
victory had been a rorogone conclusion, however, and
on the next game he ao ed the match with the ' fol-
lowing score :
Dion— 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1. 0, 1, 1. 1. 1, 0. 0. 1.0.

Warble-0. 1, 0; 0, 1, 0, 1. 0. 1, 0, 0, 0^ 0, 1, 1, O,
1.0-7.
The concluding game of the evening was then
Jilayed between Sexton and Wahlstrom, in which the
atter, during its rapid progress, created a periect
furore of enthusiasm, playing with unexampled bold-
ness and brilliancy. ' Spectators had been fioeking in
toward tha close of the previous mateh. and when,
after a shori intermission.. the players banked for the
lead, there was a fnB assemblsge watching them with
much interest. Sexton won uie lead,
and, aa usual, played safely, which he kept
up throu^out the game. Wahlstrom made a
splendid "banks " into the side pocket which would
have given him " pool" had ni>t hie own ball unfortu-
nately glided into au end pocket, which gave him a
mark. * Sexton soon missed, -however, and the
" Swede " pocketed a '* ringer" and aoored the first
game. Several boldly executed bnt unerringly ac-
curate shots gave hipi the next game also ; tbe third,
amid great a&planss. following itwith great rapidity.
Sexton came within an ace of winning tbe fourth game
when he failed to Docket, and the "Swede" rapidly
rolied up 58. failed to count, andgot "pool" ona mark
of Sexton. He got a mark himself on the next game
by a " mldcue," but he won the game, notwithstah^
ing, even more ruidly than his predecessor. - It was
now evident that Sexton stood not even the " ghost
of a show" agalan his young competitor's superb
poslUon play, but, with his usual good natare, he
pUyed away, greeting the "Swede's" "circus" with
as much merriment as any of the -spectators. The
applause that balled the 'scoring of the next game
was deafening; and Slosson. who was a laughing
witness of the games, cried out to hix friend :
" I wouldn't hate it. Sexton, old boy. . I'd
call murder." Tha amnsenient was increased tf any-
thing by the ^t that Wahlslrom had played a prae-
ileal joke on his adversary by telling him in appar-
ent tuoeri^ : "* I don't feel well to-night ; I Was sick
all day." Sexton managed to *in the ^ghth game
by a hidr^s breads escape, and waa veiybevtSy
applaodad. Be also won the tenth game, bnt it wss
perfectly apparent that the " Swede " could have
added it to hLs string had fae felt dixposed to do
sa He played all sorts of difficult shots
with an ease and aecaracy that frequently
tiidted ftcpres^nr of amazement from the
spectators. In the thirteenth Inning he
needed one ball for pool, and to get it had to essav
a difficult "combination** shot. He took a survey of
the position, cried *' combinatiou on that outsido
ball, '*^ made a vigorous dive at itwith his cue. and
pocketed the "outsit baB" amid tremendous ap-
plause. Sexton won tbe next game, playing some
pretty shou daring ita progrsss. Of coarss his vie.

■ WASHiHOTOit, April 16.— Ex-Gor. Pinch-
%«ek ii bare, and fraely ozpreaMs bia views in
eonnectlon with ths appointment of a Collector
of Ciutoma for New-OrIean<i. He says the ap-
pointment of Got. Packard would be a fatal
Mow to tbe Bepnbliean organization in Lonisi-
Biw, and wonld certainly result in creating a
tUrd nartj which would be stronger at the polls
than the party, of whloh Packard would acquire
the leadership by appointment to the Cnstom-
fcoose. Pinchback says Packard has no
(9Dowing among the Bepnblieans of
Ii<B»inlaiia, and that he is sopported
raly by that class who will follow the fortunes
d{ any man who has official favors to bestow.
^» says that In a recent interview with tbe
Ihwideat, he Informed him that those who are
;ajpw supporting Packard win be fonnd recorded
'Xor every plaea-bnnter of Louisiana, and should
ha be apointed the Bepublieans will not be able
to aarry a single district in the State. He has
ao objection to the appointment of Packard to
any oiBoe other than that of Collector at New-
Orieans, and opposes him for that because' the
CSoDeetor, through the patronage of the office, is
thle to maintain himself as the leader
lit the Bepabliean Party of the. State, and this
Is true to an extent four times greaterin Louiai-
kisa than in New-York, because of the great
Ufferenee in the character and intelligence of
Ihe two peoples. Pinehbaek further says that
K the President will appoint Judge Hunt, or
lay other man who will be acceptable to the
Bepabliean leaders of Louisiana, the party will
Im reorganized and work harmoniously to re-
oover what has been lost. He says, further,
tbmt some people believe the Bepublieans can
sany four Congressional districts. He, how-
Bver, does not say that four districts can
be eazried, but he feels confident that
two— the Third and Fifth— canMie seenrod if
nothing be done to create discord. The ap-
poinonent of Packard, however, will destroy
■Q hope of carrying a single Congressional Dis-
trict, and in the event of Packard's appoint-
ment he is determined to work to defeat a Be-
pnbUcan to succeed the late Judge Leonard,
even if he has to become a candidate himself.
He believes he can be elected in that district
AVer any man who would be placed in nomina-
^tion SB the Custom-boose candidate, and is eon-
itdent that his candidature wonld at least defeat
Icoeh a candidate. He says he does not
nraat to see the Democrats saceeed, but should
Taekard be given the Custom.houae he will go
Into opposition to him in order to show tbe
eomttry and convince the President that Pack-
aid has not the confidence of the Bepublicaos
of tiie State. Senator Eostis, Pinchback says,
■aj^poTts Packard for the very reason that he
o^wses him, namely, because Eustla knows that
a» appointment will divide the Republicans
and make a complete Democratie victory In the
State certain. He says the President has been
fully informed of the feeling toward Packard,
and is satisfied, from recent conversations held
by hlmiwlf and others with the President, that
Packard wlQ not be appointed.

■'. IOWA.
WAsaiNaTON, April 16. — Mr. Cox, of
KffW-York, made an unsneeeasfol efFort to-day
to TeAeh the Pacific Bailioad Sinking Pond bill.
vWeh still remains on tb» Speaker's table.
Unanimous consent was given to refer all pen-
rioa bills on the table, and as the effect of thia
movement was to remove formal obstacles to
i^eedJly readdag the Sinking Fund bill, it
was accepted as an indication that that
UQ would be reached without difSenlty.
After the pension bills were referred the
Souse resnmed the regolar order, which was
the consideration of the bill to provide a cov-
anunent for the District of of Columbia. After
completing the bill the House refused to pass
tty and sent it back to the committee. JSx. Cox
tlian renewed tile «ff<»t to reach the Sinking
Fnadbill, bat was soooeasfally resisted by tbe
Committee os Appropriations with a motion
to TCSome the consideration of the Post Office
Appropriation bilL Mr. Cox than asked nnanl-
Boos consent to go to the table and take up the
biU, explaining that it had been in imet
formaBy and favorably considered by
two eommitteee of .the House, and was
fully understood in all its provisions by every
member of the Bouse. Mr. Price, of Iowa, ob-
)«et»d, for the reason tiiat the bill made several
Important changes in existing laws, and he
wantedit referred to the Committee on the Jn-
dleiary. He proposed to take it tmu the table
aidreferlttotheoommittee, with the nnder-
standing that it might be reported back at any
time, but this proposition was very propoly
refused. The first opportunity given the House
to leaehtha table the billwUl be undoubtedly
taken itp for eoaaidaiation.

some informal discussion a sixth paragraph was
added declaring against the payment of claims

CONGRESSIONAL TOPICS.
THE INCOME TAX BILL IN THE WATS AND
MEANS COMMITTEE — THOMAS C. H.
SMITH'S NOMINATION FOR PATMASTXB
IN THE ABMT— BIS CONNECTION WITH
THE KITZ JOHN POSTER CODBT-MABTIAL.
Washinoton, April 16. — Tha Cogn&ittee
on Ways and Means did nothing to-day with
the Internal Bevenue Tax bill, by reaaon'bt the
absence of Mr, Wood, who failed to reach
the committee-room until within a few minutes
of tbe hour for adjournment. The pending
question is on the paragimphs providing for the
restoration of tbe income tax. Mr. Wood, being
opposed to the proposition, does not manifest
the same interest in the completion of the bill
as he did in the preparation of the Tariff, and
some members of the committee are becoming
impatient with his methods fbr securing de-
lay. The committee win meet again to-morrqw.
The Senate Committee on Military Affairs
was to-day evenly divided upon the question of
confirming Thomas C. H. Smith,. at present Ap-
pointment Clerk of the Treaanry Department,
who baa been nominated to be Paymaster in
tbe Army. Senator Bandolph, who is the odd
member of the committee, refused to vote for
Smith, because he did not believe thathewasln
every way an acceptable eandidate for the place.
On the other hand, be did not desire to vote
against him, because he thought his action
might be attributed to improper motives. The
Senator, in this connection, doubiless referred
to the fast that he is most aoxioas for the vin-
dication of Fitz John Porter, against whom
Smith was, on the court-martial, the principal
witness.
A compromise has been agreed upon between
the advocates of what are known, respectively.
as the Mitchell and the Wlndom Northern Pa-
cific Bailroad bills, by which tbe MitcheU biU
is withdrawn and tbe Windom bill, with some
modifications, will be reported favorably. The
Windom hill, because of the opposition of the
Committee on Bailroads, waa referred some days
ago to tbe Committee on Public Tiands. To-day,
tbe bill was reported to tbe Senate from that
committee, and after an explanation it was re-
ferred to the Committea on Bailroads. The
compromise bUl drops several provisions that
were embraced in the SBteheU bin. the most
important being the clause providing fbr a
branch to Salt Lake. Tha biU, as agreed upon,
leaves tha lauds in the hands of the company,
and aUows settlers to purchase according to
choice, without reservation, at the rate of
$2 50 per acre.
The Senate Committee on Militaiy Affairs to-
day agreed to report favorably a biU appropri-
ating (150,000 for the erection of a military
post in the Black Hills, ^t a point to be deter-
mined by the Secretary of War. Senator
Spencer stated that the f^rt wonld probably be
located at the jnnetion of^the Cheyenne Biv-
ers, as Gen. Sherman favored that location.
Bobert U. Beynolds, of Alabama, was eon*
firmed as First Auditor of ths Treasury. Ha
waa rejected when the Senate first voted upon
his nomination a few days aco ; but a motion
to reconsider ' prevailed, and hia eonflnnatioa
to-day was secured without OTea tbe fonaality
of a direct vote.

Washington, April 16. — ^Mnoh of to-
day's session of Congress was wasted* by per-
sonal explanations. latiie'Senate fotir gentie;-
men thooght it wen to vindicate themselves,
and in the House two members were impressed
with tbe same notion. Senator Howe led off by
giving what was generally regarded as agreat deal
of undeserved attention to tbe criticism that
has been caUed out by his recent speech on the
President's poUcy. He denied in the most enl-
phatic terms that the speech in' question was
theresnlt of concerted effort in the. Senate,
or that it was made as a test of pub-
lic sentiment, to be ^oUowed, in ease
the effect waa favorable, by other
speeches of a like character. He said, further,
that be had spoken entirely upon bis own ro-
sponsiblUty and wiljiout suggestion or advice
from any one, and that his only object in the
course indicated was to explain to Us constitu-
ents and the public why he w%s opposed
to the President's poUcy. I'ouchlDg the
report that he was disappointed at not receiring
an appointment to a seat on the supreme bench,
he made a most eicpUcit denial. He might with
tmth have added that he twice rettued a similar
appointmentfrom President Grant Repud^ng
the statements that he was dissatisfied
with the manner in which the Federal
patronage had been distributed in Wisconsin,
oe said that the President had made only
two appointments in or from that State that he
cotild^ not recommend, and only one that be
would oppose. Shortly after this address Sen-
ator Blaine also rose to a personal explanation,
and read from a Western paper a paragraph
which charged him with having expunged from
the Congrtsnonal Reeard a portion of the
speech that be recently made on the Union
Pacific Sinking Fund biU. This charge he
declared to be a fabrication, and called on the
official reporters to bear him out in what be
said. FoDowiag came the always amuaiDg
Senator Eaton, who kaid that recentiy, while
addressingtbeSenatche had made some remaric^
regarding his distinguished and highly-esteemed
friend. Senator Bandolph, which he did not
mean to be offensive. At this, the distin-
guished and highly-esteemed friend bowed and
said that he bad tha greatest respect for the dis-
tinguished Mr. Eaton, and that be never for a
moment believed that any disrespect had .been
intended to him. Allot which was evidentiy
satisfactory to the principal aetors and^ery en-
tertaining to the spectators.

London, April 16.— In the House of jCSom-
mons this afternoon. Sir Stafford Northeote,
ChanceUor of the Exchequer, replying to an in-
quiry of Mr. Foster, said : ■' The situation is an
anxloas one, but nothing has occurred to ag-.
gra.vate.it or to diminish the hope of a
eat^sfsetory arrangement. Nothing justifies the
assertion that England wiU belsolated, A air.
enlar is expected from Tiidcey to tbe powers.
There is a good prospect of an arrangement in
Thessaly and Epirus through the good ofkes of
England."
The Journal dt St. PSttnbmrg states that
negotiations with England and Austria are pro-
gressing.
A special dispatch to the Tuna from 'Vienna
says : " News has reached here that the Grand
Duke Nicholas returns to St Petersburg, and
thatGea.Todleben goes to San Stefanoto assume
tbe chief command. This is considered a con-
ciliatory step."
London. April 17.— The Ztmu has the follow-
ing from St Petersburg: "There is a..vagne
feeling, of uneasiness among well-informed peo-
ple to-day, but no reason can be discovered
therefor, except the prolonged suspense."
The 'Vienna correspondent of the SYnxs says
tbe prevailing idea ia that Bnssla aee^ to
favor the renewal of the efforta for an nnder-
atanding with Austria. Austria, however,
Bteadfastiy adheres to a solution by the con-
gress.
The Tinted Berlin dispatch says it is under-
stood that in coDsequenee of this slow progress
of tbe attempted mediation. Prince Bismasck
has recommended fresh negotiations between,
the powers them^ves.
In reply to both Austria and England he inti-
mated his willingness to treat, but refused to
make a definite settiement without a odnfer-
enee. <^ ' .
The eorrrspoudent of t)KhJ?<iny TeUfrapi at
Berlin learns, on tbe raost trust worthy authority,
that Prince Bismarck offered bis good offices
with a view of bringing.al>outaa uuderstanding
between England, Austria, and Bussla. It is
untrue that he suegested a preliminary con-
ference at Berlin. It is hoped that tbe result
of bis efforts for mediation will be known on
Tliursday. .If they are successful he will proba-
bly KUggest boVllng a eonfireas here abortly.
Tbe Dailp TeUoraph*t "Vienna correspondent
says: ■ "According, to a welt-founded report,
Prince Bismarck is endeavoring to obtain the
aimultaneons withdrawal of the British fleet
from tbe SeaofMarmarsandthe Russians from
the neighborhood of Constantinople."
A 'Vienna despatch says: '"The Patitieiil Cor-
reipoDiUiia says Itia rumored that England is

MOVED FROM THEIR FIRST ATTITUDES
ON THE SAN STEFANO TREATY— GER-
MAN MEDIATION AND AUSTRIAN INTER-
BSTS— THE STRAIN AT CONSTANTINOPLE
UNRI^LIEVED.
London, April 16. — ^The absence of news
regarding the crisis depressed the stock mar-
kets yesterday, anl prices osciUated vio-
lentiy on comi^arttively slight transac-
tions. In official quarters and at the
clubs tha feeling is equally despondent
This morning's news from St Petersburg is not
calculated to inereate confidence. The fact that
the Cabinets of London and St Peters-
burg resorted to semiofficial interoourae
seems to indicate that official expressions
would only have intensified their differeneea
The result of tbe interchange of views is not
hopeful, Bussia substantiaUy repeating her for-
mer answer, and Enidand reafliimiug
the priaoiple originaUy laid down.
The reports of an Anstro-Busaian agree-
ment,- under pressure from Prince Bis-
marck on the former, is denied by Count
AndraasJ'a friends, who declare that Prince
Bismarck's attitude, as between Austria and
Bussia, has been one of entire nentralitr. he
wen xinderstandlng that Austria urged the min-
imum, not tha maxlmnm, qf her objections
against the treaty of San Stefano, and that the
tnargin for mediation ia exceedingly n'at^w.
AU reports about Bussla.haring sent a reply to
Austria's objections are tontradictad from the
samesource. In other cirelesin'Viennaitiastat-
ed thA.the Emperor and the mHitarr party are
stroager than Count Andrassy, and wiU not
support his ahti-Bussisa policy. Among
lai^ classes of Austrians the belief is
said to pravail that ■ Aoatria hat .nothing '
sulwtantlal to gfia by either peade or -war,
because Hungary would resist annexation of the
Sclav ooimtries, but that action win be.foreed on
the monarchy if the Bnssians attempt to disarm
or occupy Boumania.
' prince Bismarck's . reported answer to K.
Bistlaao, . the Boamanian Prime Minister, Is
confirmed by a .statement, in yesterday's Neri-
daa»ek»Zeilung,<tt Berlin, which was asfollowa :
"M. Bratiano niust have' known before his
arrival bora that Germany is not : disposed to
subordinate her own relations to Bussia to a re-
gard for the wishes of Boumania in the Bessa-
raUan question, which does not touch. German
interests."
In default of authentic news rumors were
cnnent yesterday that the Busstans bad made
aU preparations to ocenay CoDStantiaople and
the Boaphoms'on the first dspal of hostilities ;
tSat the Bonmaniaa Army,, eze^t gnard^ for
Bucharest and Plejea^ were teamed npen tha
Austrian frontier, ud that tiie Csar~lia4 sent
aa autograph letter to Prinoe Milan instme^tg
him as to what Servia ahonll do on the .out-
break of a war. These aie probably all false.
Pro-Bnssiaa advices from Coastaatiaople
say that the situation is strained to tiia
utmoet, that the Gnuid Duka NicbQlaa Is
much deprsased, and that the Imprea-
sion prevails that . Etiglud and Bussia
are suiely'drifting to was. In that aveatBus-
siaaaetioawiUbe governed by Austria's atti-

will nndoobtadly seize the Bosphoms. It
.Anstria should .peove to be hostile, it is
doubtful .whether tiie Bnssians wijl try to

London, April 16. — ^This sfternopn's PaU
itaU GazetU. in its leading editorial - article,
says: " Whether Prince Bisinarck's proposals
succeed or fail, we have no reason
to diitarb ourselves about the situation.
We are strong in 'the justice of our
diplomatic position, and can afford to w^t until
our material strength begins to tell in sup-
port of it by way of a merely passive pres-
sure. If Bussia accedes to our stipu-
lation - for tbe congress, wen and . good ;
it win be held, and 'we shaU begin
to put our hands to the most arduous, danger-
fraoght piece of international work that
has been attonipted in . Europe since
-the beginning of the century. If
Bussia refuses to accede ' to tb.ose ' terms
there is no necessity for' as to
declare war against her, and it is to the
last degree improbable that tbe Govern-
ment will resort to a declaration of
war. It win be sufficient for them
to continue, their armaments, to
occupy certain points of territiny, not' neoes-
.aarUy provocative of a collision with the Bus-
sian nirces, and keep Bus^ in her present
position, that is to ny, . with an
unreoognized treaty in her ppaaeasioa,

PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
DEFEAT OF THE BEOOBDEBS BILL IN THE
LO'WER HOUSE — DISCRIMINATION IN
FREIGHT RATES— A HEARING BT THE
SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE.
<>i«<al Moatok to On KrK-Tork Xtmat,
HAXEiSBUBa, April 16.— To-day, in the House
ot Bepreaentativea, the act to define tba term of
ofllee and enlarge the datiaa of Recorder* o( dtlaa of
the first class, eommonly called the BeeoTdaxa bUl.
fell fbr want of the constitutional majority of 101
rotes in favor of Ita passage. It win be remembered
that some tiB>e ago thia same bill failed in the House
for want of the eonstitntional majoiity. but it Waa
raeonaidend tha next day, pasietl, and sent to the
Senate. This meaaare waa intended .to apply alone
to Philadelphia, and its opponents say it was framed
to proVldean office for Mr.M. S. Quav. at pivsent Sec-
retary of the Commonwealth. 'I'fae friends of the
measure claim, however, that its nassape woaid con-
fer a great benefit on the City of Philadelphia
in the way of increasing her revenues from the col-
lection of licenses, the psyme.-t of which would be
mnch morepromptly enxorred under it than It is pos-
.ible to do under exiatinfE laws. To-day the biU, as
amended hythe Senate, came np in the Uoosefor
concurrence in the amendments -with the result
above mentioned, only 86 votes being recorded in
favor of the measure. 101 beinfE required- As a
majority of the members favor the hill, it is proba-
ble the vote by which it fell to-day will be r«^on-
sidered in a full bouse, and the necessary 101 votes
recorded on its passage.
The Judiciary Committee of the House this even-
ing cave a hearing to a delegation of gentlemen wno
came here to oppose the hill prohibiting carrrinc
oompaniea irom making discriminations in tJieir
freight ratea. The delegation was omposed of rep-
resentatives of the individual coal producers of the
State. The effect of the Anti-disrrimination hill, if
passed, will be to drive throush freight from the West
away from the Pennsylvaniji Central Railroad, and
will benefit Its rival 'lines as well as the cities of
>;ew-York and Baltimore. According to its nro-
visions not only will the carrying companies of the
State he unable to take through freight at less rates
than those exacted for way freight, hut the coal pro-
ducers of tbe State will be nnable. if discriminations
and drawbarks are not allowed, to compete -with the
prodncera of other ti^es where these privilege are
not forbidden.
CHICAGO OIIY INDEBTEDNESS.
THE ATTEMPT TO RESTRAIN THE CITT FROM
PAYING TIME REVENGE WARRANTS — ^TEST
CASE ON BEHALF OF A .LADY OF THIS
CITY.
Eptdal Dl^tateAto tXe yai>-ToTk TEvus.
Cbicaqo, April 16.— The case of Fuller
against the City of Chicago, on a motion for an ii.'
jnnetion to restrain the latter from paying
time revenne wan^nta, came no to-day bel
tore Judge Blodgett in the United Statea District
Court. But it did not stay there long, the eonrt
holding that It had no jurisdiction over tlie ease, and
remanding it to the S'.ate courts. The court held
that there is clearly no' jurisdiction in the t^ederai
oourta in the original controTersy between the tax-
payer and the municipality whom be ar-
raigned and attempted to enjoin from the
payment of the city certificates. The right of
a person holding this indebtedness to Intervene in
that tuit and defend it did not seem to clothe the
party intervening with tbe right to remove that case
to the Federal Court*, even with the con*
sent of the corporation. What will now he
done haa not been determined upon. The
name of Mrs. Bayard, of New- York, was used in
taking the case to the Federal court for teat. She,
aa Executrix of Robert Bayard, holds $180,000
ot the certificates of 1&75, and $300,000
of the time warrants of 1877. Gen. Smith,
of tliia dtr. aUo represents one or
more of the large banks of New- York holding an
amount of certificates which is not stated, but under-
stood to he over $100,000. The other counsel are
acting for t-wo or more of the large banks of Chicago,
which, with their customers, are repreaented to'be
holdera of some $750,000 of certifieatea.
EXCITED RAILROAD CONDUCTORS.
DETECTIVES ON PASSENGER TRAINS ON THE
BOSTON AND ALBANY ROAD,
j^eeiai l>iapa<dt to a« Aao; Fork Ztnus,
Spximgfield, April 16. — A recent act of
Boston and Albany Bailroad managers baa led
to considerable talk among railroad men. Some
time since. 'William Blisa. Preudent Chapin's son-in-
law, and Oeneral Manager of the ro/id, believing that
all tbe eonduetora were not aa honest aa they should
be, employed detectives to travel on the road and
"spot" them. The only resolt, however, waa
the discharge of a conductor on the Hudson
branch, althongh it la rumored that several others
were ^led to the mansger's office and admonished
quite severely. The conductors on this road, who
are exceptionally pleassnt and gentlemanly, are
popular with the traveling public, and it would be
dilScnlt to fill their places. The detectives em.
{>loyed were regarded as dangerous characters by tbe
ocal Police be^re they had been here three daya.
The animus of this attempt, as represented bv those
informed, is rather singular. Tbe coming resignation
of President Chapln, who has held that position for
years, has l)een widely rumored of late, but it ia said
he will hold on until he thinks he can get Mr. Bliss
in his shoes, or until all hope of such a result is gone.
It is said, therefore, that this affair was undertaken
to impress the stockholders with the energy of Mr.
Bliss. Mr. Bliss is known as one of the ablest of
New-England's railroad managers, and there Is per-
haps no man on the road more competent to succeed
Mr. Ciiapin. ^^^^^

TILTOH SEV3SBAL WEEKS AGO ADMITTISTO
HEB OtnLT.
There were few new facts to be elicited
In the Beecher-TUtoD ac&ndal yesterday. Mrs.
Tilton had nothi&s to say beyond "nhat waa con-
tained in her letter ot confusion. Mr. Beecher
moved on in his leetore tour from Waverly to
Bath, and was reticent The Plymooth Chcrch
people wer^ dirided aa to the advia-
ability of holding another charch ioTestl-
eatton or of dificiplinins: Mrs. Tilton-
The most important additions to the story were
that four. or five, weeks a^ Mrs. Tilton wrote
letters to four lady mMnbers of tho Plymoath
Congregation anticipating her eonfesaon
of Monday, and that yesterday ^e sent
a messaee to Mr. Beecher's boose tell-
ing him that the pnbliQation of the
confession waa prematore. and that she had in-
tended to consult with him aboat it firsts Mr.
Tilton delivered a lectare in Deeorah, Iowa, last
evening, but positively refnsed, when called
npon by members of the press, to B&y anything
regarding bis wife's confession.
A PREVIOUS LETTER OF CONT'ESSIO:^.
Mrs. Anna Field, who is said to have main-
tained intimate relationi with Mrs. Tilton, and to
have b«ea aware of the fact that neKOtiationa for a
reconciliation between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton were
pending, and to have been the rseipicnt, several weeks
ago, of a letter from Mrs. Tilton, in connection with
other ladies of Plymontn Cbnrefa, confessing hex
^Ut, has been confined to her bed for some tisae, and
conld not be seen yesterday. Her bn&band, however,
said that such a letter had been written to
some of tbe ladies of Plymonth. Chnrch, hot
that his wife was not of the chnrch,
and had not received any letter: neither did sh«
know the names of any of tbe ladies to ^om it had
been written. In regard to her intzxnate rel.ttioni
with Mrsi^ niton, Mr. Field said that bis wife hmi
called on Mr*. Tilton twice during the last sii
months. That was the extent of that i>art of ttM
story, and so far as her knowledge of the reported
negotiations was concerae^Mrs. Field had learned
aJl.she knew about them Irom Mrs. Horse, who ha^
lt>M her that Mr. Tilton had called there recent! v
Vith a earriaee and taken the two boys, Carroll avd
Ralph, out lidinc and that a friendly feolinj; vqaa
growinir tip between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton.
The fact that Mra. Tilton did write scLeh a letter>as
that mentioned above, was verified last evening by
an interview with Rev. Mr. Halliday. who at firKt^de-
nled having seen any snch letter, bnt afterward, nd-
mitted that a report bad been cnrrent in Brookl^ii
for three or lonr weeks to the effect that Mrs. TBtoa
had made a mantiscript confession . He ga^ the
name of Mrs. Raymond, of Ko. 123 Henry^atr^t, aa
one of the ladies to whom tbe docnment wan ad-
dressed. " Bat" be added, "■ Mr. Raymond
is- ill, and Mrs. Raymond will not proba^
blv see anybody at this hour of the %lgbt."
Having palled the bell at No. 123 Henrystneet. tha
reporter was informed by the servant that Mrs. Ray-
mond had idreadv retired, and conld not, ot' coarse,
be seen. In response, however, to a written mesMize
asking whether Mrs. Tilton bad addressed % letter of
confession to Mrs. Raymond within the la^ foar or
five weeks, and if so whether it wonld b* Imperti-
nent to inquire its purport or request a eoipy of any
relevant passages for publication, that lady returned
the following answer in writine: " Its purport was a
confession similar in effect to what bus been pub-
lished in tbe newspapers this morning. The letter in
everv other respect was private, and not proper foi
publication. It is no longer in Mrs. Raymond's jKir
session." ^
WHAT WILL PLYMOUTH CHURCH DOl
The members of Plymonth Chxirch are not all
of a mind on the qoestion of tbe advisability of mak
ing the " eonfesalon" the basis of another chnreb
investigation. A few think the case should be xe
opened ; a few others are in favor of treating thi
matter with contempt ; while the great
majority are vacillating, and reftise to «x>
press an opinion either way. There is a simt
lar difference of judgment as to wbe^»er it wiU
be best to summon Mrs. Tilton before the ^^""Tn'Tflng
Comxittee. with a view of dropping her name from
the roll of members. Many are in favor of doing it,
but there are many others— <a majority, fai fact — who
seem anxioaa to find excuses for their erxing sister.
The men q>eak of her aa one to be jutied, as insf^ne.
or as under an isTesistible "influence," while the
women, with singnlaz nnanimlty. assert that
she is suffering, poor thins, from the ma-
nia inseparable from a change of Ufa. . Mr. S.
V. White, the TreasoTfir of the ebnrcb, is, perhaps,
the most outspoken in favor of another investiga-
tion. He caimot see bow it can be very well avoided.
Mrs. Tilton at least, he thinks, should be summarily
proceeded agaixtst; and, belng-a member in good
standing, if she should put in as an answer to
charges a formal aoensation of guilt against tbe
Pastor, the ehnrebjwoold be bound to take it up. Mc-
White is in favor of *' taking tbebttU by the horns" and
effectually dispoaizigof tbe matter, if possible. Mr.
Thomas O. Shearman said that be had resigned from
the Examining Committee, and also from tbe clerk-
ship of the church, aad teing Mr. Baecher'a counsel
he would be careful not to advise the congregation
as to the aetion It should tak«< So far aa be had
heard, the general sentiment of the members was
that the '• confession" waa not of any moment, and
that no notice whatever should be t&ken of it. Prof.
Raymond waa doubtful what had better be done,
and refused to commit h*?"**^* without coKsuitatton
with others. Gen. Tracy thongbt that tne mauer
should be treat d with KOQteiBpt.
Mr. Ifaae tSigaor, of the firm of Griggs & Signor,
and a membOT of the Bxamining Committee, said
that, as be had not seen his colleagues, he rouid
pve no opinion aa to what course tbey ^nyuld
take. He looked npon the confession as that o^ a
weak-minded woman, acting under the intjoenre of
others, and which would amount to ziothiDg at nil
in the minds of tha great m&joriiy of
th» pubiif^. As tbe entire ease had been
inveatigated in court and by tfa« cnureh.
he did not think tbe new oonfesaion would do roach
harm. As he ban only been a member of tbe "Eim ta-
ining Committee since January last he
could not state anything further. Another mem-
ber of the Examining Committee. Dr. G. W. Brush,
said that he had n<ft given much Mtten ion to tne
matter, in bis opinion, this new oonfension was
that of a person unbalanced in mind, and so fjir as
he could see there was no necessity Tor ibe chuKb
to take any action. Mrs. Tilton had made so m^ny
statements that whatever afae now sajrs can-
not have much influence. In answer to a qoea-
cion as to whether the Examining Committee wodd
summon Mrs. Tilton before them and drop Iter name
foomtherolU Dr. Brush said : " I don't think such
action wcud be improbable. Still, it isaqceeoon tor
considerbvion, as it may be best to leave the matter
as it ia, the lady being evidently in great troaltSe.
and, perhaps. irrespoDsible." He h.-id had
no conversation with bis colleagues ado
could not state what wonld be uoue. Iu
answer to another question aa to whether the oom-
mittee would, upon the nresant confession. relnve>ti-
cate tbe chargea.of adultery against Mr. Beecber,
Dr. Brush emphatiottUy said : ** That quesiiou has
been settled to the entire eatisfact-ion of the mem-
bers of the church, aad I thiikk to all woo know Mx.
Beecber.'*
Deacon D. H. Hawkins said: " In reference to the
church, there is only one course of action to tie imr
sued. This will be taken by the Examining Board,
and maans Mis- TUton's appvaraoce^fore illat body,
and then theirreport will be laid before thechurch. 1
do not know that sneb action wiU be taken." Innnswet
to a question aa to whether tbe church would nuw
take action in.xelerenee tn Mrs. Tilton. Deacon Haw-
kins replied : " If the faeta are proved aa tb^ ap>
pear it is poasibJe tbey will take action ; bnt this wili
first be dime by tbe Examining Committea." Deacon
A. D. Wbeelock said : " I bave known Mrs. Til-
ton since sbe was a littie cirL I bow look
npon her as a Inoatic. ^^tat aetion tha
ehnrefa will take I cannot say. In the rnlea
ot tbe Congretcstional Gbaroh a^eiy member has a

Ex-AsslsUnt District Attorney Wlnslow wW in-
clined to thlnlcthat Mrs. Tilton's charges^ as well as
hentetf. would be entirely ignored by Plymditth
Chnreh.
Mr. George A. BelL a former member of PJymonth
Chnreh, who la said to have withdrawn from it on
seeonDt of the scandal, said that, happily, he was en-
tirely ontslde of the Plymonth circle, and that ho
knew nothing aboat the present aspects of the
soasdal. He had been told a short time
af{0 by a friend that somethiBi: important
was going to happen soon in connection with the
matter, bnt hie informant did not know what it was,
and he had not been able to learn nntil he saw the
eonfexsion in the. papers. He was, of eonrse, sur-
prised, and yet he had been prepared for »lmoftt any-
fchinj^ He very mneh regretted that Mrs.
I^Uon hnd felt called upon to make a eoofes-
rion. He did not thiu it could help her or
U^at it would have any Infinence upon
the popular mind, either inside or ontslde of
Plymouth Church. He thouttht thAt Plymouth
Church would discipline Mrs. Tilton, and do it In a
very short time. It was a part of the fidth of that
church that oil who were not for them were
aminst them, and they could not even tol-
erate any one ot their number who occupied
an independent position, and not say "shibboleth**
to STerything the church thought right and proper,
and it was, therefore, not likely that they would
tolerate open rebellion in their ranks. It was veiy
amnsinsr. Mr. Bell said to think of the complete
manner in which the confession had unset tne cal-
culations of many of the promineDt leeders
of Plymouth Gtiurah in regard to their es-
timation of Mrs. Tilton's extreme virtue
and beautv of character. Eos«lter W. Raymondhad
declared that she was as pure-souled as an ansel, and
Thomas 6. Shearman had also held her in very high
esteem. The probabUities were that not only they,
bnt several others would find it necessary to revise
their opinions in that regard.
A TALK WITH THE MUTUAL FRIEND.
Mr. Francis D. Monlton lolled comfortably on
a sofa in the parlor of his house on Lexington-ave-
nue last evening smoking a cigar, while
he talked in his self -possessed, straizhtforward,
earaeat way about Mrs. Tilton's latest confession.
He said that he was surprised -on Tuesday morning,
at 1 o'clock, when Mrs. Tilton's confession was
shown to him, bnt he had no doubt whatever of its
truth. He knew that It would come sooner or later.
Mrs. Tilton was a woman who could not, when left
to her own thoughts, be anything else but conscien-
tious. Under the influence of 3Ir. Beecher or his
friends, she had passed four years In agony in
:he effort to screen Mr. Beecher and save his
reputation. 81ie had felt that she owed It to h^r
^Idren to assert her innocence, but conscience had
si lastroobedherof this eloak. For some time she
was helpless under Mr. Beecher's Influence, but the
truth was in her, and she would have told It before
i she had been free to do it fihe is a religions
fanatic, and so long aa she twlieved that she was pro-
:ecting a saint she could say things that were not
true. She ia unlike Mr. Beecher In this respect.
She believes in (iod and the auzels, and when she
speaks she feels that God is looking right at
ber. Mr. Beecher will swear by God and
the angels ; but he knows that God and the angels
won't touch him, and that it makes no dlfTerence
who he calls to witness. Mr. Monlton then recalled
the time when he saw Theodore Tilton on
his knees for the first time praying
aloud for strength to enable him to bear the
revelation of Mr. Beeeher's perfidy and his wife's In-
fidelity, and his midnight walk with Mr. Beecher, .
when the latter made the well-remembered remark
about his rase, and resolved to ask Mrs.
Tilton to make the retraction which sha
afterward made. Mr. Monlton said that,
knowing the facts as he did. he was sttre that Mrs.
Tilton would at some time leasaert her original con-
fession. He thought tne confession would be a
death blow to Mr. Beecher, In spite of the disposi-
tion of his friends to make light of IL ^Vlieu the
letter comes to be judged calmly and withont preju-
dice, it will convince ever^body-of the truth of the
orijdnal charge. And that charge he did not think
was so extraordinary as to be beyond t)elief.
This would not be the first ease of a woman
who had fallen by a priest. Mr. Moulton spoke
rather impatiently of the cant that is indulged in by
many people with regard to this subject. He said
he bad dismissed the subject from his i mind as one
Tibont which he no longer expected to have any seri-
ous concern, and he had not sought any information
aboat the matter since the trial. He was no longer
in communication with Mr. Beeeher's friends; he
was not of Plymouth Caureh ; ho had not met Mrs.
Tilton, and he had met Mr. Tilton casually
from time to time. He had been verr
busy for a year, and his business had
taken him all over the cq.untry. Wherever he
went he was interrogated about the scandal, and In-
:]uiries were as frequently mode by religious people
hM by others. The fact was that everybody was in-
terested ; yet now, when the matter comes np in a
fbape that was inevitable, hands are held up in holy
horror, and everybody pretenda to b© areadfully
ahockhd about it. He did not antleipato nny dreaa-
fnl results from the newspaper publieatious about
the scaudaL The public bad no murals that
were likely to be affected by reading the news.
The reading public want to know all about it;
' if thev did not the publishers of newspapers would
soon find the fact out. Mr. Moulton does not be-
lieve that Theodore Tilton compelled his wife
to make the confession that sbe has writ-
ten, nor is he convinced that the confession
proves that a reconciliation has been effected t>e-
tween husband and wife. He had met Mr. Tilton,
and knew from him that he had seen his wife, but he
had only learned from him that he believed that
some such statement as that made yester-
day would be published some day, irithout
laving received anr assurance to that effect.
Mr. Monlton said he had been assured that the mat-
ter would not be taken up by Plymouth Church. It
was not probable that Mrs. 'Tilton's pame would Oe
dropped from the roll of members, as that would
precipitate another investigation, which the church
bad no desire to make. It was not likely that the
•afl* wonid bo reopened by Mr. Tilton^, and Mr.
beecher would certainly not bring a libel suit merely
for the sake of giving Mrs. 'iMlton sn opportunitr of
testifying more fully in court to the facts referred to
in the confession.
^-
WHAT 3IR. TILTOJTS LAWYERS SAT.
Mr. William A. Beach, senior cotmael for Mr.
^toa during the great trial, said yesterday that he
had net, previoaa to the publication of Mrs. TUtou'a
tetter, the slightest knowledge or intimation that
isy such document was forthcoming. The letter, in
his judgment, would have no bearing wlutevex upon
the legal ' aspecta of the ease. Kot only
was Mr. Tilton not pxtvy to the publi-
ratiofi. bnt he had good reason to believe that ha
would have disspproved of Mrs. Tilton's course had
he been aware that such a step was contemplated.
In his oplniou Mr. Tilton would have preferred that
the eonfessiott should have been made privately to
htmseir He supposed the letter would have consider-
able influence over public opinion in favor of Mr.
Tilton. In answer to the question whether Mr.
niton had taken any steps to effect a reconciliation
with his wife, Mr. Beach ssld that he had uniformly
manifested a moat considerate and tender teellDg for
her. and hod. in his opinion, proved his inherent
manliness in so doing. He did not think Mrs. Til-
ton's confession would lead to any reopening of Mr.
Tilton's action for damages ; it was not, indeed, in
the natnre of legal evidence.
Gen- H<^r A. Pryor. who waa also of Mr. Tilton's
•ounsel during the trial, declined to express an .opin-
ion. He no longer held the position of legal adviser,
and, therefore, anything he might say would be only
as an individual, and he had uniformly refrained
from being drawn into the promulgation of any per-
ionnl opinions. It was a terrible tiling, and it was
>asy to see that the confesion had mode a profound
imprcMJon on the public mind- The public were
deeply interei«ted in the case, and would continue to
be until ihoy were s satisfied that they had
got at the bottom of it. It waa the
bhercnt public interest in the case which kept It
ilive Satisfy the public one way or the other, he
said and the scandal will be dead immediately. Of
ane' thing the speaker waa satisfied, and that was
'hat God reigns, and that virtue will have its reward
^ ind vice itt retribution, even in this world. The day
would certainly come when the truth would be made
dear He knew nothing about the negotiations for
a reconciUation between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton, and
had not seen Mr. Tilton for months. As regards the
legal ajipecU of the caae, Mr. Pryor said that there
was no certainty as to what might happen. The
case was still on the calendar, and eitner par^ could
sail it up at any time. He was not however, the
attorney of record In the case, and therefore was not
In a position to know anything about it. A suit
for divorce was out of the question, for
two reasons, first, because Uie sUtute required
that such a suit must be commenced within fly*
vMia after the alleged fact beeame known to the
itrtf aggrieved, and secondly, beeawe Mr. Tilton
bad eondoned hia wife's fanlL The wboU thing was
mueh to be regretted, more especially on aeeount of
lAre. Ttlloa's interesting family, and en aeeonnt of

he would reach bottom.
WHAT MR BEECHER THIN3KS.
Klmiba, April 16.— Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher arrived here to-day from Waverly, with hi*
agent, Mr. J. B, Pond, of Boston, and left this af-
ternoon for Bath, to lecture to-nl|^t. A reporter ot
the Elmira QazetU sought an interriew, but Mr.
Beecher aald: "It will do yon no good."
Upon being shown this morning's Asso-
ciated ^ess report, Mr. Beecher said: " I
don't think you have any more news than I
have already received." Mr. Pond, Mr. Beeeher's
agent, said : "The press report giving the substance
of The Kkw-TobkTiuss' editorial, that the absence
of Mr. Tilton showed that he had nothing to do with
preparing Mrs. Tilton's confession, is absurd. The
rumor of this arrangement, to my twrsonal knowl-
edge, has been known widely in the West for a long
time, snd Mr. Beecher has been often reminded of It.
The chains made In an editorial of the Chicago
Tribune on April 2 foreshadowed the coming con-
fession, and warned Mr. Tilton that anv such attempt
would not be welcomed by the public. The New-
York Sun published a stetement on March 14, that
as recently aa the beginning of March Mr. Tilton was
making arrangements for himself and wilh to opend
the Bummer at Warwick, near Qosben, N. T. It mar
be true ttiat Mr. T|lton has not acted dfarecUr in all
these movements, but that he acto through
his son Carroll no one ' acquainted with the
aifair will deny. At Bt. Louis and in
Fort Wayne I was told that Mr. Tilton had
threatened that he would crush 5[r. Beecher yet, and
I believe the editorial in the Chieago 3W^ufi#, al-
luded to, makes nse of the same expression. I be-
lieve Mr. Beecher is convinced that Mrs. Tilton is
now under the absolute control of her husband, that
she loves him. and that this letter of confession Is
the price she pays for a reconciliation, and you will
see that they will be livioiE together before three
moutiis roll round."
Mr. Beecher then renuirkM that for more than
four years Mrs. Tilton had been denying the truth
of what^was called ber original confession in couft.
before the church, and before committees, and had
asserted her innocence. This would more than offset
anything she might say now. Her latest statement
waa insturated by a desire for a reunion with her
husband, and was the price she paid for asserting
the same. He said he would continue his course just
the same, notwithstanding the renewal of thescandal.
Bath. N. Y.. April 16.— Mr. Beecher lectured
here this evening to a Urge audience and was
warmlv received. He appears cheerful, refuses to
read tlie papers, will nuute no further statement,
and will go right on about his business
and fill . his lecture engagemente aa though
nothing had happensd. He said to-day that
if Mrs. Tilton bad felt so conscience-stricken
she would have made her. statement to the church,
and not to newspapers. Mr. Beecher has received
a large number of telegrams to-day assuring him
that the confession has fallen flat upon the country,
and has produced no impression on bis friends.
TBE DEUVERANCE OF ISRAEL,

PARTUEE OP THE ISRAELITES PROV
EGYPT.
At sundown this eveninfr the laraelites
thronghont the world will commence the celebration
of ths festival of "Pesaeh" or the Passover, also
known as the "Feast of UnlesTened Bread." The
festival continues for eight days, and among the or-
thodox Jews the first two and the last two daj^ are
observedasstrictholydays. The reform element of the
Jewish community observe merely the first and sev-
enth day of the festival. The chief feature of the
festival is the banishment of all bread and leavened
articles of food from the household and the substitu-
tion in place thereof of the jnatzot, or unUavened,
bread, which has been previously prepared
by Jewish bakers. In former years this ob-
servance was general among the Jeirish
community, but recently it has grown into
disuse to a great extent, particularly among the re-
form sect, who worship in the temples presided over
bv Drs. Gottheil and Einhom. The festival Is of
Biblical origin, and was instituted to commemorate
the departure of the children of Israel from Egypt.
w&ere they had been living in slavery, and
the first night of the festival is marked
by a peculiar observance known as the Stdar. llie
head of the family assembles his entire household,
includine servants, (if they are of the Jewish faith,)
around the table, and there recites to them an edify-
ing histor>- of the miraculous deltverance of the
children of Israel from the slavery and oppression
. which they had endured in £gypt. Hymns of praise
and thanksgiving are sung, and a bountiful repast
brings the evening's ceremonies to a pleasant conclu-
sion.

Mr. Gboteb, of Oregon, from tbe Committee on
Public Lands, reported back the bill to extend tbe
time for tbe eompietton of the Korthem Padiio Ball-
rosd. aad moved that it be referaed to the Ceatmittee
on Bailroad*. He aald the Committee on Publla
Lands had decided to enterfain this bill, and had fixed
a time for hearing diacasaieB on it, but on intinution
from the Preaident aiid Attorney of the Northern
Paelilc Company that an understanding had been
arrived at between tbe pactiee chiefly interested in
the two bills now before the Senata, that they should
both KO to the Committee on Ballrosds for the pur-
poa of eonsolidnting tham into a aingle bill satisfae-
torytoboth. It was screed to report the bill bsck to

referred to tlie Committee on Ri^Iroads.
On motion of Mr. MiTCmu, th* Senate bill to ex-
tend the time for the construction and comnletlon ot

THI rUVOX WHTTTAKKE DEFALCATION.
Mr. Howx, of Wisconsin, rose to a question ot
privilege relating to his remsrks on a resolution a,k-
ins for Information caspectii^ th* aecounta of Jodse
Wbittaker, of Louisiana. Si moved ttiat the Sen-
ate take up and agree to that resolatlon, and spoke
of tbe commenta upon hia Bpeeeb, which be
aald amounted to this— that what be aaid
was true; that other Senatorr had agreed to
fellow him in a similar vein of criticism,
that he waa vituperative and abusive of the
President, that it waa useless to speak at all, and
that h. would not have spoken if he had aot been
prompted by personal dlaappointments. He admit,
ted the truth ot what he said. No one else bad
agreed with him to say anything. He hoped the speech
did not almse tbe Preaident. It waa little more
than a recitation ot history. On the third count
he would go to tbe country. Perhaps It was
nselea, - to say anything, " Only on. com-
ment," he contlnaeu. "has hurt inc. It has
been widely proclaimed that for many years I have
been strugziuia for a seat upon the bench of tbe 8n-
preme Court: that I have fallowed President Hayes
with personal aolieitations, and am merely resentful
beeanae he wonM set yield to such aolieiutions
Sir, nothing in my lit* can justify a suspicion so
vulgar, or axcua* an aaaertion so gronndleu. and in
aplte of th* passion which mlee the hour I hope it
will lift some opprobrium ftoin me, and seme from
the body in which J have long occnnied a seat,
if the Aaaociated Press mil to-morrow in-
form the I>eople of what I now say to the
Senste, that I never asked the Preaident to
appoint me to any ofBee whatever, nor did I ever
alinde to the Jodgeahip in hia preaence- There are

Th* Boos* th*n, at 3 e'eloek, want into Camadt.
tee of the Whole, Mr. Cox, of New-Tork, in th*
chair, on tbe Post Office Appreprlation bill.
Tbe first point on which a diseosaion arose waa ta
to the extra pay allowed to Special Agenta of the
Post Office DeDSTtment. The present allowanee is
^ per day, whieh the bin propose* to redoce to $3
per day.
Mr. BLOtniT, of Georgia, atated tiut this extra
par waa allowed, in addftiou to $1,600 a year, for
every dayin the year, whether the agent ia on dat^
or not. He considered that a great outrage, as thia
per diem was in the nature of an allowance for trav-
eling and hotel expenses.
After a long debate, on motion of Mr. Waddili.,
of North Carolina, the amount anpropriated for
Speoial Agents was increased from $100,000 to
$150,000:
Mr. DxmxKO, of. lo.wa, offered an amendment
striking out tlie proviso reducing tiie per diem pay of
SpcdalAgenu nom $5 to $3, Adopted.
Mr. Cltxxb, of Pennsylvania, offered an amend-
ment providing that the per diem pav of Special
Agenta shall only be allowed when each agenu are
actually engaged in traveling on business of the de-
partments. Adoptad.
Mr. TBBOCKkosTOM. of Texaa. offered an amend-
ment appropriating $20,000 for paying rewarda for
the apprehension of mail robiiers. Adopted.
Without farther action on the IHll th* committee
rose.
The Houae then, at 5:10 P. M., took a recess until
7:30, the evening SMsion to be for tbe conaideTation
of Pension bills onlv. Tbe Speaker, atating tlist he
would be absent oaring the evening scasion, ap-

marka concerning the nomination ot Ideot. Base to

in which the," qualifications " ot the o^ierappUcanta

have good records in their respective corpa, but be.
cause a man does well in one profession it is no sign

Tbe position under discussion is a hisb one, and
ahould not lie regarded as a reward for *' eervlee."
