From rntr Own OtrrtmondenL 

Bauigh, Friday, Sept. ^, 1876. 
Tbe contest in tais State xa hotter and 
iQ'^re tborooj^b tbau an/ sii^ce 1840. Erery- 
b(i4y i« r»lkiDs polities. The air is full of 
•bouts lor Hayes and Settle, Tilden and Vance. 
Betore earering apoa a description of the oan- 
vasft. a fltatemeut of the rotine population and 
the votes polled, oomnif ncins with April, 136<, 
will Kiye some idea ot the political status ot the 
Staea : 
^ in AprlU 1863, the registered votawas 117,428 
wMtea. and 79,443 blacks : total. 196.876. The 
â–¼ftte tiorinit that iDontii for Governor was Rt^ 
pabiicau,92,i^ Deniocrahc,73,594; Republican, 
migority. 19.641. In November following Grant 
receivtnl 96,769, and Seymour S4.601 ; Kepublican 
o^iijohty. 12,16Sw It will be onsarved that the 
tofal vote in Apnl, 18C8, was 165.S29, beins 
31,047 leas than the rejristered vote. In Novem- 
ber oUowtnK the total vote •was 181,370, beinjj 
an increase of 15.541, ot which increase the Re- 
publicans obtiin»<l 4.534. and the Democrats 
11.007. making a Republican majority of 12.168. 
In 1S70 there wa? an election for Attorney 
General, Ck>ngresB. and members ot the Lesis- 
la;ure. During the latter pu:t ot 1863 the Ku- 
klox oommeneed their outrages and kept tbem 
up unrit. July, 1871. The election took place m 
Anspst, and the terror brouirht about by the 
Railnx was so great that 12,735 Republicans, 
as oomptired with the Presidential vote ot 
Novemlier, 1868, abstained from votin«;. which 
frave the State to the Democrats by the 
loUowine vote: Phillips, Reirablican, for 
Att< mej General, 84.034 ; Sbipp, Demoorat, 
89,0i9; Democratic majority. 4,995; total vote, 
173,06J, beins 8,307 less than the Presidential 
vote ot 1S68. It will be seen that Shinp'a vote 
ia 4,438 greater than Seymour's, and that Pliil- 
lipe' vote is 12,735 leas than Grant's, sbowint; 
:bat if the Kepubiicaos had polied Grant's vote 
Po^ilips woal.1 have been elected by 7,740 ma- 
jority. 

Tbft npjit year, 1871, the Democratic Legis- 
lature for ed the question of convention or no 
convendon upon the people. It was during 
this caoBoaijTu tbat the United States Ckinrt 

MBt twenty Kuklax to the Penitenliarj, which 
remoTed the terrorism which existed in 1870. 
Ibe Bepnblioans opposed the convention, and 

carried the State by the foUuwins: vote : No 
eoQv.nt on, 95.252 ; convention.86,007 ; m^ority 
inr no convention, 9,245; total vote. 181,259. 
ThisTuteia only 111 less Ihan the vote for 
President in ISS&. and shows tbat the Republi- 
raD« only lacked 1,044 of obtaining as many 
^ votes as Grant, and tbat tbe Democrats in- 
creased their vote 1,406 above that of Seymour, 
lu August, 1872, Caldwell, Eepublican, re- 
Oeived 98.630 votes, and Merrimon, Democrat, 
received 96.731 : Caldwell's maiontv 1,839. 1 o- 

, tai Tiite 195,361, a Sepub'icaQ increase oyer 
Grant's vote ot 1868 of 1,861, and a Democratic 
i£creas«i of the vote of Au,:ust, 1871, of 10.724. 

In 1874 the Civil Bights bill was the sale is- 
sue is this State. Demagogism and hutn- 
buggery were never more potent. The cam- 
Ttaign on the part of tbe Republicans was to- 
tally inefBcient, and. together with solits and 
drrisiins in several parts of the State, the 
Democrats swept tbe State by the following 
vote : Pool, Democrat, for Superintendent of 
Fnblio Instruction, 98.217, and Pumell, Kepub- 
i^ui. received 8-1,595; Pool's majority, 13,622; 
total vote, 183,812l Being a Democratic in- 
crease over Merrimon's vote in 1872, of 1.588, 
and a Republican loss on Caldwell's vote of 
1872, ol 14.035. Showing that if Pumell had re- 
ceived Caldwell's vote he would have been 
elected by 413 majority. 

In August, 1875, the Democrats forced the 
qnestion of convention or no convention upen 
the ;;tate again — that 's, they called a conven- 
tion, and to ma^e the issue square and plumb 
before the people the Repuulican candidates 
•nnuunoed tbat it they weree ected tbey would 
▼«>te lo adjourn sine <^e. without doing any- 
thing. The highest vote on either s de ssood 
Republiran, 100.817; Democratic, 94353; ma- 
joniy for firac^blican <-andiaaie8. 6,464; total 
vote, 195,170-JvDteinz 191 less than the Caldwell 
and ilerrimOnjjvote of 1872. So tbat upon ttie

mon'a vote and -we have a total Democratic 

vote Of 103,021. It may be relied on with abso- 
lute certainly that the total vote m November 
next -will not exceed 205.000. Every negro will 
vote, and it the canvass m the white couniica 
is not wholly abortive, the Ei-publicans 
will increase their vote in every 
countv where the white yotors are in a 
majonty. There is great enthu'^iasm 
lor Vance as there was for Merrimon, but it 
comes Irom the same men who .shouted and 
voted for Merrimon. On the other hand, tho 
Republicans have never made such a canva>8 
as they are now makmr. The joint canvass of 
Siittle and Vance is doing eroat gooa for the 
Kepublicans. In every county where tbcy 
speak the Kepuolicans are eucouraaed. l\lany 
men nre astonished to find that the Repuu- 
lieun? have a loader who la able to cope wiLii 
Vaueo.- Tbo canvass is conhned to tliroo 
points: 

i'trsf.— Vance's war record. 

Second — Consti^mioir-il amendments. 

Third — liocord ol tbe last Lii;islaluie. 

Upon eiich of these quesiions the Republi- 
cans are way;ins an agureasive wartaro. l-'roiu 
aimost every couniy there is authentic news 
that Vance will uoc receive the party voce. 
Whether this lOHlina will aff.'et Vance or 
wbotbor it wiil affect tbe whole Demo- 
craiic State ticket is an open question. If 
luiliana anil Ohio give uiviued Repub- 
hoan tuiyontics next month, Vance will prove 
a uead weight to the wbi«ie ticket. The pro- 
posed amendments to the Constitucion ana the 
record of the last Ltfgislature put the Demo- 
crats at a very deciued disauvantajjc. Theso 
two subjects will be mure fully fliscussed when 
the canvass m each county comiueneeci, waiun 
will bo abuut the tirdt of next mouth. 

COMMITTEE WOKK. 

The Republican State Executive Committee, 
headed bv Col. Thomas B. Keogh, is doing 
splendid work. The daily and week.'y Consti- 
tution and tbe weekly Era, issued under aus- 
pices of t!"e committee, number 23,000 every 
week. These papers reach every township in 
The State, and means have been periected by 
which a pnp.r is placed in the bands of every 
doubtful voier. In a^idition ^o' this work of 
ihe committee, thousands ol documents, gotten 
up by the Republican Cmgressionai Committee, 
have been scattered broadcast all over the 
State, ll the people go asiray it will not bo 
because they have not had the means of in- 
forming themselves. 

THK CONGRI€SfIONAL DISTRICTS. 

The nominees in this district are D. M. Lind- 
se.y, Kcpublioan, and J. J. Yates, Democrat. 
Cobb, Republican, carried this district m 1872 
by Over fourteen hundred maionty. It was 
lost in 1874 by 1,571. This year the Repuo- 
lioans expect to elect Liudsey, but by a smaller 
maionty than tiiey got in 1872. Settle will 
gam on^Caldwell's vote. 

In the Second District it is only a question 
of majority. Caldwell caiTied the disirict m 
1872 by 8,31)0. It is expected that tbis majoriiy 
will be increased to 9.000. Gov. C. U. Ui0*deu 
18 the Republican candidate. 

In the I'bird Distinct the nominees are W. P. 
Cannaoy, Kepuo.ican, and A. M. WaJdeil, 
Democrat. Ibe Demucrats bave a majority in 
this district oi 500. Canuaiy mainiaius that 
there are more tuan five hundred ne^iriiea in 
tbis district who nave never voted. A tbor- 

oui^h canvass by lownshiiis is beiug made, aud 
every Rcpuolioan will be brought to the polls.

tnct, aud will not poll his party vote. Tbere 
are two Demooiatio papers wjioh have takoa

b.e tuat Cauuady will be elected. 

In the iounn District the nominees are 
Isaac J. Young. Repuolican, and J. J. Davus, 
Democrat. Caiuweil earned this oistriot in

Terre Hautk, Sept. 30.— The last week

luent to the Republicans. To-day Gov. Noyea 
had a great meotinor in Posoy, and anything

AN IMPOSING TORCtl-I.lGHT PARADE — GREAT 
MEETING IN CUSTOM-HOUSE SQUARE — 
SPKICHES BY 8EXA10R BLAIJS'E AND 

HON. WILLIAM P. FKTE. 

bpecial Dispatch to the New- Yorh Timet. 

Cincinnati, Sept. 30.— Hon. James G. 

Blame and William P. Prye addressed an im- 
mense audience here tbis evening on the issues 
of the campaign. Senator Morton, of Indiana, 
was -announced to apenk, but was recalled 
to Indiana this afternoon by a dispatch 
stating that his preset ce was necessary 
at once. The torch-light procession which 
paradad the streets betorc the meeting was ad- 
mitted by everybodg to have been the largest 
and finest that has been seen iu the city since 
the time ' of the W^ide-awakes iu 1860. It 
consisted of nearly five thousand voters, splen- 
didly uniformed, and was fully one hour pass- 
irg a given point, marching four abreast Tl:e 
procession w^as headed by Hon. Alexander C. 

SandSjOf the Times, mounted on an immense ele- 
phant, bearing a torch. The e'epbanf yas ga.yl.y 
caparisoned, the covering bearin gapprooriate 

mottoes. Nearly one-fourth of the procession was 
composed of colored voters, who carried torches, 
and with their expensive uniforms presented a 

fine appearance. The streets along the Una ol 

march w^ere lined w^ith spectators, aud the en- 
thusiasm rah higher than at any time for years. 

The procession was admitted by both parties 

to surpass, both in numbers and appearance, 
that of the opposing party ou Thursday 
night, when every effort was made for the 

gri^atest rally of the campaitni. A special 
feature of the parade was the entire absence of 
peisons not voters, the procession of tbe op- 
posing party beiug made up to a considerable 
extent of boys and persons utder age. Every 
man who carried a torch tq-nigbt wiil deposit 
a ballot ior the Republican nominees at the 
October and November elections. 

The speaking occurred on Custom-house 
square in front of the new Government build- 
ings, now in process of erection on Fiith street, 
adjoining Fountain square and the Esplanade. 
Tue large space was packed with an intelligent 
assembly of the voters of Cincinnatti and the 
adjoining towns, man.y having come in on the 
late trains to listen to James G. Blaine. Fully 
ten thousand persons were on the 
ground and tbe adioining streets, all leaning 
anxiously forward to catch the words of the 
great orator. The assemblage, oonsidering its 
size, was an extraordinary one. It was com- 
posed of the most intelligent and representa- 
tive portion of the citv's population, a vast 
amount of wealth and intellect of the city and 
adjoining country being represented. 

The speech of Mr. Blame, lully one and a half 
hours' long, was pronounced the most effective 
of the campaign thus far. Terse, dispassioned, 
and pointed, it dealt fairly and honestly with 
the issues of the campaign and the inevitable 
results of the return to jiower of the Democ- 
racy. A considerable portion of the ad- 
dress was devoted to a dissection of 
Tilden's record, and especially h's con- 
nection with Tweed and the New-York 
Democracy. The enure falsity of his claims to 
position or credit as a reformer, were clearly 
shown, and his record in relation to the New- 
Ycrk frauds especially held up before tbe au- 
dience. Special attention was given to his 
tax record, and the entirely unsatisfactory an- 
swer to the charges regarding his perjui'y and 
false income returns were delineated with 
great force. His letter of 18G8 was also read 
and commented upon with telling eftect The 
speech was remarkably free Irora that which 
the opposing party are pleased to teiTu 
" Bloody shirt oratory," and in its calm, clear, 
and impartial discussion of tbe question in 
hand was b.v far the most convincing to the 
more intelligent class present of any delivered 
here this season. 

Mr. Blaine was followed by Mr. Frye, mem- 
ber of Congress irom Maine, who spoke lor 
fully an hour to the vast audience. His ad- 
dress was marked, and great enthusiasm re- 
sulted among his hearers. Much disappoint- 
ment was felt among those present at the" 

lailure of Senator Morton to be pres- 
ent. An especial interest was lelt in 
Blaine's speech, it being the first delivered 
by that gentleman here, upon the battle ground 
of the late convention in which he so nearly 
obtained tbe position upon the ticket which 
Mr. Hayes now occupies. This point, although 
not directly referred to by Mr. Blaine, was 
made the more conspicuous in the minds 

of his audience by his brilliant eulogy 
of his sueeesslul opponent, whom be 
cbaractcrizi:d as a man ot pure character 
aud Of the highest honor aud eminently tit to 
lead the Bepiuficau Party to victory in this 
tbo Centennial year. Altogether tbe meeting 
was a great success, and even at tins late hour 
the streets are tiirouiied with people discussing 
tbe speech and tbo procession.

PROBABILITY THAT PRINCK MILAN WILL BE 

CROWNED KING — THE REPORTED FIGIIT- 
t.NG ON THE MORAVA KIVEK INCORRECT. 

London, Sept. 30.— A Belgnide dispatch to 

the Daily News say* : "It is said that Prince Milan 
will leave Btlprada for Para'chiu early next week. 
This is regarded as proof of tho improbability of 
any peace arraniremonts beinu concluded. It is 
said to be highly pr:>bab.o that Prince Milan will 
he crowned Kinij as fcoon as he is removed from the 
restraints of Bclaraio. Thrco hundred and sixty 
Cossacks arrived in BelKraUe on Friday. Two hun- 
dred more are expected on Saturday and six hun- 
dred on Sunday." 

A disparcb to the Times from B3lKrado savs the 
movemont'? on tbe Morava River are compaiatively 
iusigiiibcant The Servians do not boast very 
loudly of Thursday's battle. Official Turk sh tele- 
grams claim a victory. The newspaper cirrespond- 
ents nearest the scene of onerations seem to agrae 
that the Tnrks bad the advaiitase. 

The correspondent ot tho Daily Telegraph at 
Alexmaiz iu a dispatch to that pi.oer, â–  cays tho 
Turks gained a great victory on Thursday, wh'ch 
thoy could have followed up with disastrous re- 
sults to tbe Servians were it not for tbo armistice, 
which tha Turkish commander still treats as 
valid. 

A dispatch from Raeusa says the Prince of Mon- 
tenegro has left Cetiiene to join his Army. 

A dispatch from Belgrade says ^he reported re-

DIPLOMATIC PHASES OF THE WAR. 

HON. ROBERT LOWE INSISTS ON THE CALL- 
ING OF THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT THE 

CZAR'S AUTOGRAPH LETTER IN TQK IN- 
TSRESTS OF PEACK — TUE PORT E'S RE- 
PLY TO THE POWRRg — DISPUTE BE- 
TWEEN PKINCE MILAN AND THE SERVIAN 
FOREIGN MINISTER. 

London, Sept. 30.— Right Hon. Robert Lowe 

publishes a letier iu tbo 'limes this morning on the 
Eastern question. He vebementlv insists upon tbe 
necessity of calling Parliament together to deter- 
mine whether the present policy of tne Ministry is 
to be pursued. 

The Times, in a leading article, says : *' The Czar 
is doubtless anxious to keep the contest witbln its 
present limits, and he is believed to bave given pa; 
cific assaracces to Emperor Francis Joseph in the 
antograph letter which iscxoiiing tbe cnnosity of 
tne Continent. But there is grave reason to tear 
that if h oslihlies are not iitopped immediately, the 
healing iuflaences of diplomacy will be baffled. A 
prominent S>. Petersburg newspaper is allowed to 

sav that Russia iji resolutely and irrevocably deter- 
mined to finish tne Eastern question. The Czar 
thanks tbe Town Council of Bicclaufi for tbeir 

warlike address, and no attempt h iua<:e to prevent 
the rush of soldiers to Servia. In fact tbe Bussian 
people are introducing the startling novelty of ap- 
plying tbe principle of limited liability to war. Rus- 
sia will mcnr a heavy responsibility it ahe does not 
endeavor to stop the present eiicitemeut. 

A Paris dispatch tu the limes says: "Information 

trom Vienna authorizes tho statement that the ob- 
ject of the Czar's autograph letter to Enaperor 

Francis Joseph is to induce Austria to enter into 

eommon action in tbe interests of peace." 

A ufspatch to liuuter's Telegram Company from 
Pans says the substance of tbo Porte's reply to tbe 
Powers has alroad.y reached the French Govern 
ment. It is saiJ to be of a natare to accelerate a 
pacific Bolntiou of thu Eistnrn question. The Porte 
only makes some reservations relative to the re- 
forms to be accomplished, and expre.saos tha wish 
tbat the provinces to be afiected by them shoald not 
be desi^ated by name. The Powers, on the other 
.band, desire to de!<ignate Bosnia, Bulgaria, and 
Herzegovina b.y name. 

A dispatch from Belgrade to Renter's Telegram 
Company, dated to-day, says: "There was 
a serious di.spute yesterday between Prince 
Milan and M. Ristics, tho Servian Min- 
ister for Foreign Aflairs. M. Ristics 
insisted upon the cuncluslon of an armistice, bnt 
Prince Milan would not listen to tbo orcposition. 
Ultimately tbe war party prevailed, and M. 
Ristics tendered bis resignation, which Princa 
Milan declined to receive. M. Riatics was 
witn difUcnlty persuaded to remain in 
office. England and Italy are greatly irritated at 
Servia for rejecting an armistice. Tbe British rep- 
resentative, speaking on behalf of the Earl of 
Derby, said ServH must no longer rely on England 
or.sympatbies which she no longer deserves.

LOyDON BUSINESS MATTERS. 

CONSIDERABLE ACTIVITY IN THE STOCK EX- 
CHANGE DTRING THE WliEK — IMPROVE- 
MENT IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT BONDS 
— THE MINCING LANE MARKETS. 

London, Sept. 30.— Notwithstanding atten- 
tion has been occupied b.y the settlement which was 
satisfactorily concluded yesterday, there has been 
at certain periods during tbo wesk^considerable 
activity at the Siook Ezcbaneo. On Wodnssday, 
Earl Derby's sneech on Eastern aff.iirs, together 

With a scarcity ot stock and satiifictorv traffic re- 
turna, caused a buoyancy in home railways, and 
numerous purchases were made. During tbe past 
two days all tbe markets have been de- 
pressed and there has been a general relapse 
in prices. This reaction docs not equal the previous 
advance except in foreiifn securities and Consols. 
Most of the Ea„:lish railways show an improve- 
ment on last week. Canadian issues are lower in 
consequence of a considerable dex;rease in the 
Grand Trunk traffic receipts. Alter being tolera- 
bly firm, foreign securities during the latter part 
of the week bave been declining; Egyptian, Hun- 
garian, and Rassian are 1 to 2, Argentine cf 1363 
3. Buenos Ayies II2 to S^s, and Paraguay and 
UrugUiiy 2 lower. English funds are flit, and Con- 
sols 716 lower. American Governments have 
maintained tbeir improvement in aomo cases, 
but Illinois shares are 3 lower. All 

the markets to-day are agaia flat and show a 

further decline. Iu discount, as usual on the last 
day of tbe quarter, there is rather more doing, and 
the rates are firm at the momi'nt at '^e to 1 for 
best three months' bills. The new United States 
Funded Loan closes at i>j to ^4 premium, being a 
decline of is- Fitty thousand pounds' v.orth of 
American eagles were withLirawn from the Bank ot 
England yesterday for sbipraeut to New-York. 

Business in the Mincing lane markets has been 
little affected during the past week by politicsl 
t. «aainbL as tha demand is oonfUted to cnrrent ra> i 



quirements; speculative operations are of a very 
partial character. A quiet feeling, however, has 
prevailed daring the last two days. Rice has been 
firm at the recent improvement. Many floating 

cargoes have Deen sold. Middling to fine coffee is 

again higher,- the supplies aresmalland decreasing. 
Foreign, excepting low qoaUties, is In better de. 
mand. There have been some further arrivals of 
tea, which have increased the heavy quantity now 
offering. The week's business was again moaeiate. 
The market generally remains quiet, bat importers 
are firm, as supplies may be expected to fall off. 
The sugar rawrket was dull at the close. Daring 
the week low brown sorts attracted more attention. 
Spices, though inactive, have not dectmed. 

A TEBRIBijE R URBICA NE. 
THE ISLAND OP PORTO RiCO DEVASTATED- 
MEAGRE ACCOUNTS OF A GREAT DES- 
TRUCTION OF PROPERTY — SEVERAL 
AMP^RICAN VESSELS WRECKED. 

Washington, Sept. 30.— The United States 
Consul at St. Jnan, Porto Rioo, reporto to tbe State 
Department that the Island was visited on the 
morning of the 13th inst. by a very violent hurri- 
cane, commencing at 4 A. M. and Uitiag until 
meridian of tbe same day. The Consnl writes that 
communication with the interior and sonth part of 
the Island is interrupted, the telegraph poles hav- 
ing been blown down, rivers swollen, and 
bridges carried away,- so that ijo In- 
formation has been received nor can 
any calculation .be (formed with regard 
lo the distress and amounf of damages f that mnst 
have been caused in other jparts of tho province by 
I ho harricane. At this p^t tbe Americiin schooner 
William ,7. Byrne,- of Philadelphia, ;w»s driven 
ashore. No lives were lost. A survey'was held on 
her, and sbe was reported a total wreck. Some 
eight coasting schooaers beloifginK here were also 
stranded, and a number of lives lost. Xbls capital 
has also suffered, and in the aarroanding district 
so tar as has been heard from there is hardly a 
house standing. With the rise of the rivers aid 
the hnrricaoe the catve-rice;; and coffee estates are 
all ruined (or the oomieg crop. 

From the consular agencies he sav» : "I have only 
heard from Arecibo and'Nagaabo. At Arecibo 
there was lortanatelymo American vessel, but from 
that port to Agnaoilla tjbe coast is strewn with 
wrecks. No Americati veisel is known to be among 
them. At Naguabu the Ajaaerican brig Valeocbt, of 
Boston, was driven ashore About 9 A. M. and became 
8 total wreck. The ci-ew were all s^ved. At or near 
the port of Tubacoa, District of X.ignabo, the Am- 
erican brig George Latimer was stranded and be- 
came a total wreck. iAll hands were saved. 

Mr. Haddock's Consalar'agent atl^angabo, writes 
that tbe hurricane lias done great damage in bis 
district, and from Vabacoato Fajardo there is not 
one estate or bnildij^g that h»ve not suffered. I 
have hopes, he says, that the sonthem parts of the 
islnnd may not bavoj, experienced tbe harricane 
with the force that the north parts has suffered, 
and trust I may not have to report the loss ot any 
more American vessels. I am obhged to make 
this dispaich hurriedjy, oar only eommnnioation 
witn tbe United Suitias »t tbis time being via H*.- 
vaua, aud ihe steamer leaves tbis morning. There 
will be no other oppidrtnnity, not even by sailing 
vessel, for two weeks.- The crews of tbe wrecked 
American vessels will ; be cared for and sent home 

as soon as possible. 



THE PHILADELPHIA STOCK MARKET. 



ANOTHER SCARE-gHEAVY FALL Df THE 

PRICE OF READING STOCK PRESIDENT 

GOWEN'S F0SITI0N«-AN INTERESTING 
FIGHT, 

From Our- Own Correspondent. 

PmLATELPHiA, Saturday, Sept. 30, 1876. 
Tha culminating point in the fall m the price 
of Reading railroad stock is believed to have been 

reached tO'day, when the lowest quotation known 

for years, 2438, was givsn as the price at which a 
large number of sbares were sold. The tumble 

commenced on Wedneaday last, when, the 

stock was selling^' at;^ 44, uid it w«it to 
33. aud to-day stlU lower. Tbe strttet is 
full of theories as to tbe catua, and the Wildest 
Sorts of rumors are afldai concernins the Beadias 
liailroad Company. It has passed three dividends 
on the atOQk tbis y«(|c, t4i:&»^ this reason the hold- 
era of ihe inter est-bearitig bonds begin to feel a 
little shaky, but it. H aald that ample pro- 
vision has been made to'iitaeet these demands, and' 
when tho company da^anltB ou one set of 
bonds, it will default on ^it. That means nothing 
more nor less than that tMy are ready for emergen- 
cies in that particular, ibibas already been noticed 
in Tub Times tbat Mr. B{|]|ie, the prominent stock- 
broker here, has been DnyS^g all the Reading stock 
tbat was offered, at good Azores, and now it is 
said tbat the CAUsij; of tbe break in 
the prices arises fjjdm the fact that the 
MoCalmonts, the LoDddn bankers, who were bol- 
stering the atoek to give; steadiness to the market 
withdrew their support, iand beuoe the taQ of (19 
per share. To-day it leikks out that it is a stock- 
jobbing dodge of tbe Mc04lmonts, who allowed tbe 
stock to depreciate,! I and are now buy- 
ing it up ac low; ii figures, knowing that 
as soon as tbe public dujcover this fact they will 
go in and bay, and in a dhort time good prices. wUl 
rule again. Ofconrse, :j^ the stock stands now, 
mmns throe dividends, i^ \n almost worthless as ^n 
investment, and will renlain so for at least a year. 
There were rumors of ;Mr. Gowen resigning the 
Presidency, bnt as that gentleman refused to see 
any newspaper representative, an authoritative 
denial Of the statement. (;.innot be giyen. It it is 
true, tbe company is tortsnate in the possession of 
able men, who can bonduct its aflairs witb, 
perbana, more success than Mr. Gowen. 
Witb the bursting of the coal combination, 
a fall of fid in the market value of the stock 
of his road, and no dividends or pronpect of any, 
Mr. Gowen la mote to be pitied than condemned, 
lie aspired to control the great coal trade of the 
United States, and has otterlr failed, being beaten 
on ever.v point. 

It is a ourioas history, that of the inside wot K- 
ings of tbe Reading Railroad Cosipany. An tbe 
story goes, and it comes from credible authority, a 
pool was formed of persons holding flfty'-one 
per cent, of tbe stock, and this stock was pooled and 
sealed in a iar as it wei^e. A solemn compact was 
entered into that the stock of any dn» 
ot tbe parties in the pool was not to bo sold for fii- 
teon years, and for that period those in tbe ring 
could bave exclusive control of tbe road, and elect 
the Board of Directors and officers, by the -stock 
vote of tbe pool. Franklin K Gowen was chosen 
as President of the road, and tae agreed 
for the period of fifteen years to -forsake 
his law and all other bnsinees, and devote his time 
and attention exclusively t« the Reading Railroad 
Compan y. He baa served aliont four years In his 
present position, and now that he lias got the 
company into a muddle it is hardly probable 
that he will resign, hut endeavor to get it out, 
which will be no easy matter, for the obstacles 
which surround btm^are numerous. Mr. Gowen is 
able and quick- vritted, bat the sympatbiss of the 
public are not with him in his pres- 
ent dilemma, and if something serious should 
happen to impair the credit of the road, be will re- 
ceive a fall share of condemnation from persons 
who bave pat too much faith in him. Indeed, 
there seems to be very little peace for 
the men who composed the late - com- 
bination, for now it leaks oat tbat there 
IS a light between Brio Pardes and Henry Swayze, 
President of the Wilkesbarre Coal and Iron Cfom- 
pauy and Judge Pacha, President of tbe Lebign 

Valley Railroad Compaiiy. Mestri. Pardee aud 
Swayze represented the Iiohigh operators in 
the great Coal Exchaa'go and also the 
Lnnigb Valley Railroad. Company. The trouble 
between them is a qaestiou of veracity, regard- 
ing some instructions which Judge Packer gave 
to his representatives relative to movements in the 
Excoange. and now the Judge denies ever giving 
sucbiustrnotious. In conversation witb a prominent 
operator, Mr. Pardee, said : " "We are the biggest 
liars in the country if we did not do as directed by 
Judgd Packer." As there are two to one against 
bim the Judge will be obiicfedto acknowledge 
his error. Mr. Pardee, J. Gillingham Fell, 
and Judge Packer are the three liurgest stockhold- 
ers m tho Lehigh Road, and if the tight sbonld 
cause a gap lu open Judge Packer might find tbe 
odds against him, as it is still an open question aa 
to wbtcn party Mr. Fell would ehng.

•pecftorship. Mr. Cooper addressed the Chair, and 
•aid 1 that the -persons whose names had 
been V presented by bim bad been chosen 
by a^ majority ' of the General Committee 
ot bis district to serve as Inspectors. 
This brou^t Gen. Spinola again to the floor. In 
the remarks he made he did nnt deny that Mr. 
Cooper's stittemont was true, " but," said he, " the 
names were distasteful to a majority ot^tlre Demo- 
cratic voters in the distriot." 

The fight over the Inspectors for this district 
was most bittor, and showed that the i^emocrats in 
Mr. Tilden's vwn Assembly District are not as har- 
monious as he eeuld desire. Duriiag the very 
acrimonious debate over the reports from this dis- 
trict, the Chairman announced a ; communica- 
tion which he banded to the Secretary 
and requested him to read. This proved to be a 
piteous appeal trom ex-Civil Jaatiioe Alfred T. 
Ackert and ex- Assemblyman Nioholbs Haughtou, 
tirging the committee, tor the sako of karmuny, 
peace, and the success of the Democtatio Party in

date lor the party resided. tK> poiir oil

the matters in dispute without aliowSng any per-

This communication was placed on filib, A vote was 
then taken uoon a motion to reler the reports of 
Messrs. Cooper and Spinola tn the Chair- 
man, fJohn Kelly, I with power to ap- 
point tne three Inspectors for the district, 
and the motion was carried by a vote of 45 to 43. 
This was a downright victory for, Spinola, in the 
face of the fact, admitted on all icidi>«, that the 
names presented by Mr. Cooper wens regularly 
cboaen and regularly reported to tbe !Ex:ccacive 
Committee. Spmola's victory was also a triumph 
for "Boas" Kelly, who baanotfargo«t»-n the position 
taken by Mr. Cooper at St. Louis m. regard to the 
nomination of Uncle "Shammy." A similar bitter 
fight was had over the contCHt In tbe Twenty-first 
Assembly District, resulting in ibe same manner 
as that in the Sixteenth, ,namel y, giving ''Boss" 
Kelly power to appoint Imspectors there- 
in. In this contest the victory was 
\ron by Corporation .d.ttomey "William A. Boyd 
over ex-Senator Hugh fl. Moorr*, Boyd proseuting 
the names of Inspectors w ho were seleoted by a 
minoritv of the General CommlJttee offals district. 
Buyd is one of "Boss" KoHt'b favorites and waa 
placed m his present position by him. Mooro and

H. OKEEN. 
ADOst ioflaential meeting of City contractors 
*«fl held last evening at the Grand Union Hotel, 
to ttie purpose of conslderiag the teaaibilify of 
WBCvrrlar in the nomination of Controller Andrew 
B. Qre«n for the Mayoralty. There was no doubt 
la the intention of tbe meetins. It took the stand 

< Ji tile first instance that it was divorced frora all 
Btate and national issnes, and on the Municipal 
^naatkm wis tinanimoas in its procedure. 
<Mr. Join W. Ambrose was appointed Chairman 

-|Uit Mr. Dovling Secretary. Mr. Ambrose stated 
the purpo^ for which the meeting had been con- 
vened. Having tbe welfare of the City sincerely 
at heart, and aesiring to see St ably and honestly 
Covarsetf, they cared not, he assumed, whether a 
ciadidate tat the responsible position of ita chief 
•xeentlTe Was a Damocrat or a RepuDlican. Their 

/^einre Was to rise . abovo political parti- 

^aansbip and advocate the election to the 
IMayoralty of a man whose claims upon tbe suf- 
nces of his fellow-citizens were founded, not upon 
his pslltieal faith in the cnamon acceptation of that 
tana, bat apon his qualifications to fearlessly and 
faithfully diaaharge tbe dutiea of tbe office to 
which be aspired. What, he asked, were 
CratroiLer Green's qualifications 1 On account 
mi tiMir almost daily business intercourse 
With bim lor years, tbe contractors of 
Ifew-Tork should, of all men, be able to answer this 
question. Was he not an official of proved integri- 
ty and executive nbiity? Had he not, as it were, 
been tried by fire^ And from each trial Iiad 
lie BOt come oac stronger, brighter than be- 
fore. 'When he took cbarge of the Con- 
troller's office oonfuflion relgiied supreme. Qnietlr, 
â– yatematicaily, and with a courage challenging the 
admiration of every honest man Mr. Green went 
to w<sk. Everything that ingenuity could devise 
or raacUity execute was used ajcainat him to pre- 
Tent him from showing up tbe Department of 
IlBADce as it was then coDtrolled by tbe Bing 

'^ieve^ bat he- oroKa throngb every obstacle 
thrown ia his way. Honesty was his infloxible 
Tula of action ; and thi?, supported by 
an indomitable will and a thorongh 
knowledge of business matters, enabled him 
to triumph at last, and to bntld upon the rntns of 
corruption and fraud a Department of Finance 
Which la to-day the pride and the glory of the City. 

, Coutd thev, be a^ked. find a man more fit to be in- 
trusted vritb the daty of solectiOK the beads of tbe 

4epartmenia uf tbe City GoTeroment, and of seeing

AMERICAN WORK Si Ey IN SCOTLAND.

TO GO TO GREKXOCK— IHE TRADKS-

WORK— AND THEY ARF, LIKF.LY TO SPEND 
TUE WINTER IN IDLKNEiSS. 

About a moath aga 1 JO masons emigrated 
from New-York to Greenock, in Seotland, where 
they wore to be eniployed in the erection of "new 
work-houses for a period of at least two years. 
Good wages were promised, their passage farea 
were deirayed by their employers, the contractors 
for Che construction ot tbe new buildings, and great 
things were expected trom this novel trade move- 
ment. The Bauguine hopes at the men have 
not been realized. Ic appears tliat tbe AHerioau 
masons were engaged to take tbe place of trades- 
union men who bad gone out un strike. When 
they arrived in Greenock the "union" men at once 
Interviewed the Americans, who lent a willing ear, 
and a great number of them rolused tu go to work. 
lu a week every mau who had croysed the Atlantic 
threw up bis job oa the prstensa tbat 
he did not bargain lu have his passage faco ueduct- 
ed from hia weekly wages by inatalloionts. There 
is a possibility, however, that tbe men have been 
Induced to take this step at the instigation of the 
Masons' Unina, and as trade ia by no means so good 
as was represented a month ago, it is possible that 
they will experience in Scotland tbe miseries of en- 
forced Idleness. They cannot expect mach help 
from the tuuds of the "union," not beiug oc embers

THE S OLID S OUTH, 

SPEECH OF ATIORNEY GENERAL 

TA FT. 
DISCUSSION OF THE SOUTHERN QUESTION — 
THE DANGERS THAT WOULD ATTEND 
THE ACCESSION OF THE DEMOCRATS TO 
POWER. 
Attorney General Taft delivered bis first 
speech In the Ohio campaign at Pike's Opera-house, 
Cincinnati, Thursday night. It was mainly de- 
voted to a discussion of the Southern situation, 
concerning wbich he, of course, has unequaled 
facilities for obtaining accnrato Information. We 
make the following extracts : 

t/I^M THE REFUBLICAN PARTT. 

The Republican Party sprang from the Declara- 
tion ot Independence. Slavery was not consistent 
with the announcement that " all men were born 
equal," and with " the In.ilionable rights of life, lib- 
erty, and the pursuit of happiness." When the 
slaveboldlng aristocracy had succeeded in obtaining 
from the Supremo Court a judgmeut establishing 
their right to carry slavery into all the Ter- 
ritories, and annulling all compromises which 
limited tbe territorial extension of the Insti- 
tution, the men who formed the Republican 
Party were inspired by the principles of 
the Declaration to resist the extension 
and to elect Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency. 
"Whom the gods would destroy they first make 
mad." The slave power would have been secure 
if it had remained loyal, but it defied the Govern- 
ment and forced a war. Heroin do we find the 
broad difference between the civilization of nn- 
tiqaity and that of the present d,iy. Then wars 
ended by making free men slaves ; now wars end 
by making slaves free men. The Kcpublican Party 
having thus been brought into eiistonce, led 
boldly on to victory — the victory of universal 
liberty. Hence the Thirteenth Amendment abolish- 
ing slavery. Bat " equality " was still wanting ; 
hence the fonrtoenth amendment, which gave civil 
egnality. Still political tichts were wanting, with- 
out which tbe full idea of thu Doclaralion of Inde- 
pendence could not be realized ; hence the fifteenth 
amendment, Kiving political equality witli the riu:ht 
to vote. The ideal of the " I)d<'laralion " thus be- 
came the fundamental law of the republic. This 
was the work of the Republicans, achieved against 
the persistent onposition of tbe Democracy. Tbe 
present leaders ot that party were the leaders in 
opposition to these great measures, when 
, their adoption was urged, and finally carried. In 
overthrowiug tbe reoellion vast indebtedness was 
incurred. The Confeaerate Demerracy now com- 
plain of our extravagant expenditure in persuading 
them to remain in the Union. We did not count 
the co-iit-. But Confederate Generals on Congression- 
al Gommiitees, peering into our archive,-* to find ma- 
terials for a report against the condactof the war 
in which they were conquered, is a grotesque affair. 
The clear and well-deflued policy of the Rtjpublican 
Part.y and its candidates is to preserve and not de- 
strey tbe fruits of the war against rebellion. It is 
to sustain and cause to bo recognized and acknowl- 
edged in every State tlie costly precedent that the 
Uoilert States is a Government Irora which no State 
can secede I It assumes that the blood and treaauro 
spent in maintaining the Union were not wastou, 
ana that the Government should be administered 
on that hypothesis. It seeks justice and pro- 
motes equality among all the citizens. All its 
objpcts are constitational and lawful, as well as just 
and humane.. Improvement and reform are essen- 
tial parts of its theory and praoiico ; not a pretext 
on which to get into power, but a living principle 
of action, to be re&arded whenever and wneiever 
the occasion may arise. Its history will show more 
and greater reforms in the civil service, and in the 
methods of conducting the affairs of the Govern- 
ment, than have been or can be shown to have hap- 
pened under Damocratioruie iu any equal time. Its 
grand purpose has been to make tne Kepublio per- 
petual, by elevating all its people to tbe highest 
and beat condition of human society. 

TUE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES. 
In the war, multitudes of the old Democratic or- 
ganiaation realized the absurdity and the wicked- 
ness of secession, and patriotieally went into the 
army, or sustained the Goveiament in other ways. 
The.y thus ceased to belong to tbe Democratic 
Party. £nt there never was wanting a nucleus of 
partisan Democratic politicians who sympathized 
with the rebellion, and who ' never ocnitted 
an opportunity to make a point against the 
Government in its contest with the ene- 
my. While many of the rank and file were 
bravely flighting for the Union, the Bourbons of the 
party were depreciating our victories, and striving 
to ntilize our defeats for tlieir political cue's, ifow, 
to this Bourbon class of political leaders belonged 
the candidates for President and Vice President, 
nominated at tjt. Douis. ITor this we owe that party 
thanks that they have given us typical men— men 
in no way ideutifled with the great struggle for the 
Union, except to oppose ii, â–  but men all the 
while Ideniifled with hostility to tbe Ad- 
ministration of Lincoln, and sympathizing 
with tbe slaveholders in their rebellion. 
It ia not difiQcult to understand the desire of the 
Democratic leaders to forget, and to have tiie conn- 
try forget, tile past, and their intolerance ot any 
reminibcences of ^ho war. There are some things 
which a brave and patriotic people can never forget. 
They can iorglve,"but cannot forget them. This 
fatal mistake, to CiUl it by no harsher name, of op- 
posing the patriotic sentiment of the country in a 
time of perilous war, and sympathizing with its en- 
emies, is one of those things which cannot be 
forgotten, it may, perhaps, be forgiven. 
But no maa wu^ made tbat great mistake 
and published it to the world, to the 
dismay of our friends and to the encuaragement of 
our enemies, can or ought to expect to be chosen 
President of the United States, ibuch a man should 
be content to enjoy the wealth he may have ac- 
quired by the fiuuBcial embarrassments of others 
caused by the war. The people are not likely to 
crown bira with Presidential honors. That Is a 
lesson which I believe will be so eflectually taught 
at the approaehittg election tbat the Democratic 
Party will never again disregard the patriotic senti- 
ment of the country by putting in nomioaiion for 
the highest honors of the nation a mau who, even 
b.y mistake, has taken tbe unpatriotic side iu such 
a war. 

THE BOAST OF A SOLID SOUTH. 
A solid South is what tbe Democratic leaders 
claim and boast of. Bnt a solid South for the De- 
inocrac.y implies fraud and intimidation in tliewoisT 
form. It is'well known that the States ot Alabama, 
Mississippi. LiHuisiaba, Souih Carolina, and ii'iorida 
have large KepuDlicau majorities if tuev vote. 
At lea»t there is a moral certainty that such is 
the case. The Republicau majority in Alisaisaippi 

uutil tbe late Bliot-can campaign was not Xcim than 

thirty thousand. In Suutu Carolina it has always 
been large ; so In Louisiaoa, and so in Florida. 
Tnero was a sadden change in Mississippi from a 
heavy Repuulican to a heavy Democratic majority, 
and the evidense of uui>arahelod frauds and intimi- 
dations is abundant. The frauds and intimidations 
were a snfiicient caasa for the change, and there is 
not shown to be any other. There is the same 
convincing proof of the fraud and Intlmidat'.on 
by which Alabama was carried. They 
have Deen too numerous for any de- 
tail. I will refer to but one instance, which 
has been broueht forcibly to my attention, it ia 
that of the murder of a yoang man whose father 
was a Kepublicau lawyer, and the father and s»n 
were both attending a Republican meeting. The 
fatber came to me, in company with a Sena; or from 

bis Slate, and exhibited inalctments which had 
been found against tbe murderers of his sou, and 
begged tbe privilege of aiisisting in their prosecu- 
tion. 

The following, from a letter of an intelligent gen- 
tleman to tbe President, may bo talieu as a sample 
of uaily communications to the Government Iroui 
tbo South : 

[A6«tract/roT» a letter to the President, dated Aug. 

19, ib;().] 

"In Soath Carolina, ^Â¥belâ– o there is undoubtedly 
a Republican tuajom.y, rifle and sabre clubs are or- 
gacized to do ihe woi'k ot the Kuklux Klan, and by 
iutimidution iuteirupt and deioat all pohticiil

any resistance to their demands, ijiood would ^e

licaus, tueir Uuiids are virtUiill.v i,ied »<; dnst B^uoh

and colored inen woulu testily at the risk of their 
lives, i^fouo but colored uieu would come lo the as- 
sistance of the uflici.ils. The Govcriior has no 
Militia except uegroL-s, and they are undisciuliued, 
untrainea. iguoraut of military duties, aud wuoll.y 
unequal to cope with the White Liners on iho 
oilier side. i\iHny of these leauing spirits were 
charged with Kuklusing iu 1870 aad 1671, and are 
more bitter to-day than they v.eio then, sinuil.y bo- 
cuBse they thiuii. the Gov^rumout wi;i not punish 
tliem now any uioro than it did them. The leniency 
and clemency of the .Naiioual Govurutueut had 
been mistaken for cowuiUice, aud the longer 
tiioy live the bolder aud more oacspokoa they 
grow. At the DeiuociMtic rauhoatiou meeting 
held iu Columbia, S. C, on llio 16th inst., some of 
the lipeakers openly advisjJ their htarers tu put 
out ol ttie way the white Kopublicans tirtir, tlieu 
the nioiatloes, and thou the utciues. i'iiey said 
tliey 'id not lea:- the United Slalaaaruiv ! they h^u

port lo the Repiibl.caus. it wilt not only bu useless to 
expect us to :;uiTy the election, bnt wbiie Repuoll- 
cans wjU not be permitted to live in peace and 
quiet aud express their political sentiments." 

Another gentleman ot undoubted reliability and 
oj cuuservative character was present at a lecent 
meeting at Hernando, J^liss. As th» speakiug was 
about beginning, a white maa commebced a dis- 
turbance by attacking a negro with a cudgel. Im- 
mediately tho whites opened fiie. Five negroes 
aud two whites were shot. Ho writes : 

SEl'T. 19, 1S"G. 

I myself witnessed the first blow and iho first 

shot at Hernando, yesterilay. They boih camo 
from the' whites, and I saw nothing to pmvoko tho 
blow, and the shet was certainly an unpardonable 

.brutality. 

; GEN. Gary's advice. 

I In a letter to the President, of the 14th insr., a 
gentleman of reliable character writes trom Edge- 

,5eld, S. C : 

It. ."Gen. Gacr is adviaine the rifle olnb« wbich hav% 



b^en formed by the old rebel Democracy to attack 
the United States soldiers pow stationed here, and 
run them away from [here. He says in alt 
Ills public speeches tjiat ho would not 
bositate to load a eoniparty of mon to attack 
them and kill tho last «>ue' of them. I tell >'OU, 
Mr. President, that the! same old rebel spirit 
is in these men \ 1 1, and iiotliing but the strong arm 
of your Government will brins them to feel that 
they must obey the law. Gen. Gary said, the other 
day, that ho Intended to catry the eleciiou, or he 
-wculd fill every street iu ilJgelield with deal 
netrrnos." 

Under the circumstances, this does not present 
a pleasant prospect to tbe negro voters of Edge- 
field County. This may bb bravailp in the General, 
liut the object is inahitost. Besides the almost 
inuuinerable indivniual * cases reported to 
tho Department of Justice, the District At- 
torneys of the United Sciies have lu sundry in- 
stances applied lor instruction in view of th« evi- 
dence which thoy give [of conspiracies already 
lornied and Inrming in the diflorent States to in- 
timldaiethe colored voters and suppre.is tbeir snf- 
fraiie. 0:ip, .a gentleman and a lawyer of high 
standing, states this case ^ " An intelligent colored 
Republican has been recently organizing, in one of 
the counties of Mississi||)pl, liepiiblican clubs — 
clubs for political discussnpu, open for everybody to 
attend. A leading ohjoct pf the cinbs hitherto has 
been to ascertain the bounjlaries of the precincts in 
which the negroes are reauired to cast their votes, 
a problem which, under the new State law, is not 
solved by the negroes Without considerable dif- 
ficulty." , ' 

This colored Republican was instructing his fel- 
low-liepubllcaus how to find their several proper 
votiiiti-ulaces, when his lite was llireaten^d if he 
rtil not desist. Js^'ot heeding the throat, beVas at- 
tacked and fired at on tlie stand when speaking. 
Beiuir more daring than the colored people have 
generally proved to be, be returned the fire, but 
without eflbct. Ue was seized, flnall.y, on a charffe 
of as-sault with intent to; kill, and it was appre- 
hended that the White Libers would get hira out of 
tbe jail and kill him. He 'was removed to another 
county, where his fa^e ia unknown. This 
statement was by a District Attorney, a gea- 
tlenien of great Intelligence as well as a 
lawyer of eminence, anijl conservative. He de- 
clares that there is undoubtedly toimed a conspir- 
acy to control the elections by intimidation and 
Iraud, and that an essential feature of the 
plot is to prevent by menaces and vio- 
leiico the assembling of Republicans for po- 
litical discussion, aud [ preparation for exor- 
cising the francbiso of suttiago. lie states 
that if suca violence and menacing can be punished 
or prevented by Federal power, a fair election can 
stiirbo seeureu, but if not) the intimidations will 
very soon have gone so tail that the colored Repnb- 
licans will not dare to rote. If the perpetrators of 
these wrongs arc respoDa|ibIe to Slate authorities 
only there can be no romeiy, and tho election must 
be abandoned. The Govetument has some able and 
patriotic legal officers in tbe Seuiberu States, but 
they are environed with difficulties. 

A GRAVE Question. 

In view of tho extraordiuary condition of political 
afl'airs ia the South, the quiustion isuew gravoly pre- 
sented whether the negriie' will be allowed to share 
in the eleciiou of the oittceirs who are to administer 
the Government or not;' or rather, whether the 
dumiuaut class, with property and very superior 
intellect, in the South shall be allowed to deprive 
them and us of their risrUt to v»te. Shall we give 
it up; or shall we iubist upon their right? 
There are other poor jieople, both lierth and 
South, who are also igborant. Shall they, too, 
be deprived of their suflrtige ? If we give it up in 
tbe South we create at ot^ce an aristocracy worse 
thau that which we had hoped was destroyed, for 
the slaveholders will have more political power 
than they had wnen they dwaed tiie negroes. ITivs 
slaves were counted iu tile sc.de of political power 
aii tbiea Ireeuien ; now they count as five, so 
that those masters will wield two-si lihs more power 
iu the Federal Government on account of tue ne- 
groes now than ihoy ditt before the war. The 
question for the people of tbe United Stales to de- 
lermine at the coming elsctioa la, shall the.Fitteeatn 
Ameudment be given up, yield_ed to intimidation 
and fraud ? If yes, then tne instructions to tho Mar- 
shals of the United Statea. to preserve the peace et 
the United Slates at the pijlls were wrong. If you 
think that poor men, if citi2ens, shall bu allowed to 
vote irrespective of race, cblor, or previous condition 
of servitude, and that it is the duty of the otbuera 
ot the United States te e4forcs the law in tbat be- 
lialt when possiljle, then the circulai of tbe Marshals 
was right and was nut uuiimelv. 

Geuileuien, we may fail ^ secure a free vtte to 
the colored citizens. Intiibidations may have gone 
too far. The colored men may have become de- 
moralized. Their experiences may have been too 
alarming. They may bi^ve Be»n or heard of too 
mau.y murders which hav^ gone uunoticed and un- 
punished to be willing tu risk their lives by going 
tu the polls aud attemptinj; to vole the Republican 
ticket. We may not succeed in preventing fraud 
and iritimidation. : f 

i'ellow-ciiizens, the safety and prosperity of the 
country require that th^; citizens of the United 
States should be free to vote according to the pro- 
visions of the ConstitutSbn, Whether they be of 
high or low estate. Peliow-citizens, the motives 
ot the Southern Douiocrats to make the 
South solid for the ' Democracy are great. 
They desire, not witliojat hope, to have the 
claims for rebel losses of property by tho late war, 
some time in the future, allowed aud paid. They de- 
sire to have provision made tor the rebel debt and 
also tor their loss of 8lave^.>, If any of these thiugs 
are to be accomplished at all tney well know that it 
must be throujili the agency of the Democratic 
Party. They know toat if the election is carried 
b.v a solid South they will oe a majorit.y of the 
Deuiocratio niujoricy, ant^ can ooniiol it. That 
sama alesperate purpose to< prevent tbe colored men 
fiomVoting at the pre8ent| election extends to the 
permanent control or eiclijifcon of votarsju tho lu- 
ture. With theDamocraiic i^^rty in power tuey might 
• hope for some or all of tUebis tuings. With the Re- 
pu oilcan Party ill power t|i,iey have no such hope. 
Tlie stake they have in Vdh result is great. They 
will not hesitate to resortito desperate measures 
to wiu it. 

Fellow-citizpns, are you r^ady to intrust 'the gov- 
ernment of this great coiiatry to such a combina- 
tion 1 Are you willing th^t a minority, by intimi- 
dation and Iraud, shall make tbe South solid for 
the Democracy against ajiiivlded Kortb, thereby 
enabling that minority of! raie South to rule botii 
tbe North and tbe South, aidji shape the deaiinies of 
thecountiy? This is the; great question we are to 
decide at tae coming electiM.i^.

EXTRAORDINARY CAREER OF A TOUNQ 
■WOMAN— MARRIED TO THREE HUS- 
BANDS. 
The fact was published ill yesterday's Times 
that Mr. David Kaefer, the proprietor of a lager- 
bier saloon at the comer of Twenty-sixth street 
and Third avenue had some six weeks ago married 
a young German girl who onEriday deserted him, 
taking with her ?960. The detectives yesterday, with 
the aid of a man named Buesslng, who knew the girl, 
succeeded in arresting her, jflist as she was stepping 
aboard tbe steam-ship Rheliif of the North German 
Lloyd line, at Hoboken. In tracine the woman's 
movements after she left Kaefer's house with tbe 
money, the aeteclives unearthed some extraordi- 
nary facts in oonnectioja with her esreer. 
There Is good reason .' to believe that 
within a few yeais s^e married at least 
three men, all of whom are living, and from each of 
whom she succeeded in taking oonsider^i/lo snms. 
of money. It is considered certain that she was 
married sme time ago to a man named Fisher, and 
it is believed tbat she also wedded a basket-maker 
in Brooklyn named Luntz. The Police believe 
from facts in their pessegSion that she has also 
married within a few years two other men. 
This much-married woman is but twenty-thtfee 
years of.aeeand rather good-looking. Her mar- 
riage wieh Kaefer was celebrated in the Prospect 
Avenue Methodist Episcdpal Church, and until 
she ran away with the money she lived banpily 
with her husband. Of tbe stolen money t600 was 
found in her possession. rThe remaining $350 
she spent on clothes, jevrelry, SuA a steerage 
ptssenuer's outfit, including bed, blankets, cooking 
utensils, <fco. When arrested yesterday, in Hobo- 
ken, she was taken before the Recorder ot ihat 
city, and agreed to come to Jlew-York State with- 
out a requisition. She bought her ticket yesterday 
morning in the name of Pauline Fisher, but when 
questioned by the detectives gave the name of 
Martha. Konig, Detectives Corwin and Butts- 
brought her and her effi.-cts to Brooklyn last night. 
This morning she will be 'taken before Justice 
Walsh. So far no positive proof has come into the 
hands of the Police that , tlie woman was legally 
married to any of her alleged husbands, with the 
exception of Kaefer ; and should they fail to olitain 
sucAi proof, it is improbable that she can beheld, 
as in the eye of the law she could not steal tiom 
her husband.

TME G. B. C. 

A TALE OF A TELEGRAIL 
BY JAMKS PAYN. 

I ao not as" a rale engage in comme-ci al 
epecolatioD ; but m; dear triend Jones insisted 
with sacb eloqueDoe apon the success that 
mast indubitably follow upon the establisii- 
ment of the Great Butter Company— an asso- 
eiation formed for the manufacture of that 
commodity oat of a material wbicb shall bo 
nameless, but which was by oo means so pre- 
carious and open to adulteration as oream. and 
the supply ot which was practically inexhaust- 
ible — tbat I 8}ififdred the name of Uartin ^ale to 
appear, for a consideration, on the list of di- 
rectors. 

It is a name well known in society, and was 
ap to tbat time untainted by oonnectioa with 

trade; unless, indeed, the swopping aud sale of 

nbargers — for which I will back myself against 
any cavalry offioer in her Majesty's sernoe — 

maj be considered by the pedantic as coming 

under tbat head. As for the city, I know noth- 
ing more about it than that it was a locality 
lying east of Cox's, the army agent's, which 
was the Lmit of my personal experience in that 
direction. I have always breathed quite an- 
other atmosphere — that of Pall .Mall; I wish I 
could say a purer one; but the fact is, that the 
atmosphere of the smokiQo;-rooms boih at " the 
Ba;;" and the " Junior" are, toward the small 
boors of the mornins;, when my own day is by 
no me ins finished, somethini; appalling. I had 
ttiree hundred a year for direotius the Butter 
Company ; and it was far easier work, I am 
bound to say, than were the old duties in 
my refdment, for whioh I was paid a precisely 
•imilar sum. Once a month the Chairmaa 
called for me in his brougham, and deposited 
me«t the offices in Comtiill, where, after an 
Bzoellent lonobeon, (of which our butter formed 
no ingredient,) I attached my auto^aph to 

oertain documents, a proceedine which, I be- 
lieve, is technically termed "pasaine the ao- 
Boonts." There were some persons of my 
acqnaintano* and profe^on — persons I 
have reason to believe who bad them 
Mlrea applied tor directorships, and failed 
»wbo did not Boruple to eall the Great Butter 
Company a slippery eonoem, and who affected 
to give ma friendly counsel t« get out of it ; 
^at I waa to* well accustomed to the system ot 
militarr exchanges not to perceive their drift — 
kbeir object was, of course, to be gazetted in 
mj itead. I Ustenad to their jokes about 
''Martiagalo the man of business" every time 
I ratnmed from an expedition to Gornbiii with 
^en more than my usual good noiture, for I 
liail twenty-five golden rsasons in my pocket — 
the directors were paid monthly — for stisking 
to the Batter. And I believe the Butter would 
have stnck to me had it not been or my own 
faatt — ^il 1 can call that a fault which was the 
most extraordinary piece of ill<fortane that 
ever befell a fellow, and solely through another 
fellow's being too clever by hal£ 

Well, I say the Gh B. C. — as we who belong 
to It were aooastomed to call it, as the Chair- 
man said, " oat of affection and enphony," bat 
«o far as I was concerned, for mere shortness — 
-waa a iittlo " talked about ;" it had its detract- 
ors, and even its enemies. People shook their 
keads at it, (especially when- they tasted the 
butter,) and prophesied we should nut last ; 
and it was necessary to advertise considerably 



â– â– â– fe^ 



I am not a famil;f man, but I respect ravs.ll. I 
hope, as much as it I was ; and I wasn't cm i 
to oe blown to piecoa by an old rhin iceroa ii!:e 
that, iu a held ot swedes. My ditiicullv vras to 
tiuu au excuse ; for tlio other mous le'ueals— 
anil his own knowledge perliaos ot wbv 
they wouldn't come— had nixtle &low- 
coii^he ''touchy," and when I had hinted that I 
couldn't be quite sure ot being v.-ttU liim on tho 
first, he hau made au allusion to tbe little niat- 
toi- 01 busmess betweeu Ud, wiiick I felt to be 
equivalent to "piav or pay"— Come to Piou^jli- 
shire (for ho lived amoiij;"' the clodhoppers) or 
settle HIV aocount. 

At last 1 hit upon a plan. lie knew that 
I was conuecteu with the Giedt Cutter 
Company, and dad oiteii Bounded me as to 
its p^opects: hut 1 could never oersuade him 
to invest in it. "If U's tuch a real u^i'd thiug, 
yau had better stick to it vourself, iMartia^a.e, 
and let nobody else in." "t didu't like the re- 
mark about letting people in ; but 1 wua not lu 
a position to quarrel with Slowcomoe. He 
parted from mo on tUo last day out one of 8ju- 
temuer, telling me he wanted twenty-iour 
Hours lo get his guns ready, and impiesaiug 
uj;nn me che best tram by which to start lor 
ftoUiihshire on the morrow. The next moru- 
ina (the 30th) L wrote him tuis letcer liom the 
Ciut) : 

My Deae Slowcojibe: I am exceedingly sorrv 
to ui.-.4ii<poim you — aua still mure su to umapo inc

to cuuuoct the leieKram :

iSo long as we were harmonious among our-

it it be his own. There were some exuuses lor

THE HA WIS I ED MAN. 

In a whisper, mind — in the gentlest, the 
most sighing of whispers— I tell you this. In 
fear and trembling, too, all the time, for it 
might hear me. 

You observe, I say it ; for I cannot apply ac- 
tual distinction to the weird little «ntit\- that 
torments me. At the same timo, though, I 
find that I have often called it him, aud, in a 
misty, wandering way, associated tho thing 
with the trickay-looking sprite who stands 
witli his bauds upon his hips in the Landseer 
picture of " Midsummar Night's Dream." 

The fact is, I have been haunted for the past 
five years — I, the simple-minded, calmly^lving, 
seventh-rate'' literary man who pens these 
lines; and my innocent bachelor life has been 
made a torment to me by something, of which, 
as you see, I only dare speak in a whisper. 

You are shaking your head! Dou't say you 
are not, tor I can feel it mentally ; and my per- 
ceptions are now thoae of the nio-st acute. Lot , 

me hasten, tUen, to reassure you— to enlighten 

you upon the point you are. quietly discussing. 

No : there has not been the slightest mani- 
festation of insanity in my family. 

Again : my pulse gives with calm regularity' 
the proper number of beats to the minute. 

My blood is of the normal temperature. 

It is not inciuient drlirium tremens, for I was 
never inebriated but oneo jn my life, and then 
I was 80 drcadfnlly ill the next day that I 
made a vow, which I have religiously kept, 
and am always considered an abstemiou? man. 

So, once more, in a calm whisper, I declare 
to you that I am haunted — bewitched — ill- 
wished — evil-eyed — overlooked — or in some way 
Buffering from a spell. In fact, there must be 
something in the matter not hitherto dreamed 
of in my phiiosophy, and I tremble lost ill 
should come of it. 

But lot mo explain— let me give you a sample 
of the kind of annoyance to whieh I am sub- 
jected, and during which it always seems to 
me that I can hear the silvery tinkle of a very 
small kind of laughter flnatins about the room. 

It was only yesterday that' I required my 
daily remembrancer — tho diary in which I re- 
cord the trifles of my lirfe and note my engage- 
ments. It was gone. 

That book lies on my study table, and I waa 
put out 'by its loss. 1 searched book-oase, 
drawers, in tolios, among papers, turned out 
my desk, got into a violent perspiration, went 
and bullied the eervant, rose into a towering 
rage ; and at last, quite exhausted, and fuming 
with annoyance, I threw myself into my chair — 
and found that diary I 1 

Where did 1 find it i 

I'll teil you : that little book lay in its usual 
place upon the study table. 

Now. you may argue for a week, and you will 
uot convince me that some sjirite had uot hid- 
den that book away until it was tired of laugh- 
iug at mo, wuen the book was r^'pacert. 
Another specimen. 

1 have a custom, drilled inbo me in childhood, 
of carettdly folding my clothes before retiring 
to rest. I never kick one thing here and 
another thure, alter the habitude of tlia 
reckless, but place each trarnient rea ly 
to to donned in the morning. Now, I am ready 
to make afiidavit that those things are ail 
right at night ; but when I have left rising till 
the last moment, just leaving myself suflicient 
time to dress and catch tue train by wnich I 
am going with a friend, there fs invariably 
something wrong. Now it is a button otf my 
trousers. If Igettheu; ou, and find them all 
right, the tongue is gouefrom my brace buckle. 
Or it may be a stud dropped from my shirt; ; 
the button-hole split of my collar ; or, more 
likely, a button grown ovet-ripe aud ready to 
drop, swinging only by one thread from the 
most preminent portion of my coat. 

Atauotuer tune I hear the scrvitut come up 
with my boots, as I lii iu bdd. Slie bumps thciu 
down, a.'j servauis will bump boot.^ down, aud, 
ill that pleasant, seiul-unconscious way in which 
one lies of a moruiug before rising, 1 seoni to 
see those boots, and 1 wonder wUe:lier they 
have beeu eareluUy dried, fur the ur,;vious day 
was wet, aud 1 nave had a horror of -damp 
boots ever pince 1 road somewhere that they, 
were a proline eause of catarrh. I'heh 1 w.m- 
der.'too, wliyit is that servants have such pe- 
culiar notions respscting the aaatoiii3' of the 
human foot m?;8euune, and credit it with ab- 
uormiilly turned-out loea. Iroiii the way in 
Which they always reverse male boots — the 
right ou the left side, the left upi'ii the right. 
They never do so with boots femiuiue. 1 lie, 
then, seciug those misplaced boots there; aud 
wuen 1 have made my piiiugb out, done my 
tubbing, aud hav.e arrived at ti^e stage wheu I 
want those boots, I open tho dobr to get Iheiu,. 
aud they are not there! 1 

Now, 1 am cercaiu that they- were there ; I 
heard the girl bring them; but ail the •ja me, 
alter a Jew minutes' i;!tefval, I ring sharply, 
and the maid comes aad knocks.! 

".'dy bojtb! — I'm waitiusi tor tliem." I say. 
"Piee, Sir, they're out here," siiys tne girl, in 
an ill-used tone. 1' ' 

Whereupon 1 go indignatly to the door, With 
a bruah lu oue hand, into wuidi 1 have savage- 
ly driven the leilow brush, 'so ihlit they aatheio 
togctucr, aud my hair all down lover my lore- 
head. ' 

Yes, there are the boots ; and! put wrong a& 
to rignts aud lelts, as a niactdr ol course. 

iS'ow, how did these ooota get away, and 
how did they come baek { For I'm sure tue 
girl did not oriug them back this time. 

I told you how particular I am about folding 
my elolues ut nijiht. 1 uis exteudato garmeuta 
that I do uot Wear every day — dreas eoat, lor 
iusiaucc, lelt m the drawer dufing a tour or 
Hiiuotiug expedition. 1 \ 

iSow, it won't leave those gaijmcnts alone ; 
and whenever i take them out atter absence,

I = J. WiiLLSBT PURNOW. 

To T. WooLLT, E^q. 

I was auiazbd, and sat -vritb the note in my 

hand, unable to coiupreiieud it. I had asked 
Pumow to couio aukl dine wilb me ul the Cu- 

raeoa Club, aud woifldu'l have adki<d him lor 
money lor the worijj. Besides, I didn't waut 
any- just then. j 

At last, by way jof solving the mystery, I 
took up th^ inclosure, to read, in my own 
hand: \ â–  ; 

No. 14a Bye Street, Monday. 

De.ve Old Boy:! Let mo have that ten 
pounds, there's a good fellow. You promised 
it beiore Christmas, land it's now May. Thine, 
I ; T. Woolly. 

Yoa, I wrote that, ibut it was to Jack Saorter, 
who owes me noendlof borrowed mouey, wuich 
I get back a little; at a time. But iiow did 
Purnow get it 1 ,Sfop — no — yes — no — 10 be 
sure I did: I wrote to both at the same time, 
and the notes must' have been put — yes, 1 de- 
liberately say, in a whisper, vaiaii—put into the 
wrong envelopes I j j 

1 was aghast tor a! tilne— it seemed so horri- 
ble ; but at last 1 redovfersd my.selfisutficiently 
to take my hat and go lo the tclegrapu othce, 
to send a message toj; Purnow, tolling him it 
Vi'as a mistake, and that he must come directly, 
for I had ordered a Capital dinner^it the club. 

1 got that message: very cleverly within twen- 
ty words, got out a . slanting, and was just go- 
ing to baud both- 1 to the pleasing-iooking 
voung telegraph clei-ikcss. When Ja horrible 
thought ran througjl toe like a bhiil, and I 
stood as if transfixca. j: Jack Shorter had got 
Purnow's note, aud Ae Would com^ to the club 
to dinner I AVorae stili*, to me, as wo sat to- 
gether with coffee aud cigars, he would borrow 
another ten-pound ioie of me, or perhaps be 
kind enough to takoliD,±u two fives. , 

What was 1 to do 11 |; dare not bring those 
two men together. I did not want Jack. Oii! 
it waa dreadful. Bub Hie dinner was ordered, 
aud niight just as jwoH bo eaten; si^ I went 
away — making the pleasing-looKiug young tele- 
graph clerkesa lookjupou me as very strange 
m my ways — and wrote au expiana.tory letter 
to Purnow, appointiag another day tor tue din- 
ner ; but he decliueilj , to come, aud i led "sure 
he believed my note was a try-on for money. 

But Jack Shorter qome, and ate my dinner ; 
and as 1 said, so ho dld-Hhe borrowed two fives 
over our coffee, whicijiiSum ho will never pay. 

It's an awful po.^iiiOjajior a man topjlje lu. and 
I aulier ftom it at ever.yturn. I have round my 
gun unaccountably rusty ; my li.shing liUfS hor- 
ribly tangled, aud i|iy;tio:) joints brokeu. i

INDIAN 



TEA. 



Only half a ceutury ago it was commonly 
believed that the " Camel li.a tbeifera." or te^- 
plant, was confined to a belt of land -within the 
Chinese Empire, lying oetweea twenty-five and 
thirf3--three degriies of north latitude. It 
chanced, however, that in the year 1823 an 
enterprising Scottish trader, named Robert 
Bruce, conve3-od a cargo of miscellaneous arti- 
cles up the rivers of Assam to the town of 
Rungpore. nt that time the most important col- 
lection of huts in those parts. This 3Ir. Bruce 
being something of a botanist, discovered, 
to his great surprise, that the lofty trees 
beneath whose grateful shade he waa odo 
day reposing were of the same genus, and 
even species, as the lowly tea-producing shrubs 
of China. Many of these trees exceeded forty 
feet iu height, while not a few attained to six- 
ty feet, though they seldom measured mere 
than a yard in circumference. In answer to 
his inquirlep, he learned that a decoction of 
tea-leaves had long been a favorite beverage 
of the Singohos, the tnha inhabiting that dis- 
trict, and that the plant was indigenous to all 
that portion of Assam which is included be- 
tween twouty-seven and twenty-eight degrees 
north. Convinced of the u>ift!ulue83 of his dis- 
covery, -Mr. Bruce orevuiled upou the 
Singpuo chief to enter into an ea- 
gagoinent to supply a csrtiin num- 
ber of plants at a proper period of the 
ensuinsryear. Inthe meantime, however, the 
first Burmese war broke out, in the course of 
which Mr. C. A. Bruce, in command of some 
gun-boats, penetrated as hich as Sadiya. where 
he was shown the agreement made with his 
brother. On the conclusion of hostilities. Mr. 
C. A. Bruce conveyed to Calcutta some plants 
and seed from Uoper Assam; and in acknowl- 
od.rmont of his services he received a medal 
from the London Society of Arts. The incident 
was fruitless of further consequcncts, but iu 
1832 Lord William Bentinck's attention was 
drawn to tho sirailiaritv of Assam, in soil aud 
ci'.inate, to the tea-growing districts of China. 
Two3'ear3 later, a committee was appointed to 
take into consideration the beat mcii.ia of iiiiro- 
ducing tea cultivation luto the territories of the 
East India Comoaiiy. Tho existence of the 
indi'^onoiis plant was (hn.s once more brought 
to ligiit. iind Mr. C. A. Bruce was selected to 
Kurjcrintccil the first Governmeut nurseries, 
v.hile Boods. seedliuaa, and experienced tea- 
growers and manufacturers were imuorted 
from China. Alter oue or two failures some 
saninh fl were produced of such excellent quali- 
ty fiiat in l^i39 a company was formed in Lon- 
don under thoatyleof the Aa^amTea Company, 
with a capiralof half a hiillion, in iO.OaO 
shares ol £J0 each. To this iirivate asso- 
ciation tho Go^oiumeiic tran.sferred two- 
thirds of their plantations— the rcm.aiiiing 
portion being sold to a Chinaman in 1S49, lor 
oometiiing le'sa ihau oue hunarei pounds. Tho 
first operations or the Ass im lea Compauy 
were eminently uu.'^uocesslul,- b-'ing conducted 
in the most extravag.int 'manner, and without 
the aligatest practical knowledge, iris there- 
fore not vcrv surprising that by 18;(5-7, the 
snares on -.shi^h tweniy pounds had been paid; 
were practically UiisaUibie, while a lew arc 
said U) have cbauged owners at the 
nominal price of liaif a crown. This 
period of depress. ou las.'ed for sev- 
eral years ; but in 1S5\J a cb.mge 
for the bntter set in, and since then the com- 
pany has cnjoyeu a career of triuaiphaut suc- 
ce.se"; At that date, five or six private gardens 
und beeu estaldishcd at difi'crcut poiuis, and 
by 1859 no fewer than filvy-ono i)Lania;ioua 
were being worked by private iudividuals. 
Most of the;-ia were fairly saccissiul ; aud up 
to the year ISC') tho prospects of the tea indus- 
try Were, a. least, higaiy sati6lac;or3-. Uii-

MI STARLiya. 



I fb»l rery lonely now since my starling 
iefone. I coold not bear to look upon bis 
•mptr cage, hia bath and playthimgs, so I have 
bad them all stowed away ; but the bird will 
dwell in my memory for many a day. The 
-way in whioh that starling managed to insinu- 
ate Itself into my heart ' and entwine its affec- 
tions with mine, I can never rightly tell ; and 
it ia only now when it is gone that I really 
Icnow how much i it is possible for a human 
feeing to lore a little bird. The creature was 
nearly always with me, talking to me, whist- 
ling to me, or even doing mischief in a small 
way, to amuse me ; and. it w'as often the very 
liest relaxation I could have had to throw 
down my pen, straighten my hack, and hare a 
romp with Diok. 

the rearing of a nest iff starlings is always a 
Tcry difScnlt task, aad^ found it peculiarly so. 
1m. (aat, one young starling would require half 
» dosen serrants at least to atteud it. I was 
not master of those starlmgs, not a bit of it ^ . 
Omj were masters of me. I had to get out of 
bod and stuff them with grub at 3 o'clock 
•▼err momnrg. They lived In a band-box in a 
oloM^jtf^my bedroom. \. I had to get up again 
mt 4 Vdook to feed them, again at 5, and again 
at 6;* in face I saw more sunrise during the 
inianey of that neat of starlingi than ever I did 
iMforo or sense. . By da:(, and all day long, I 
staffed thorn, and at intervals the servant re- 
lioTod me of that duty. « In fact it was pretty 
nearly all stuffing; (but ^ even then they 
were not satisfied, and made several ineffeetual 
attempts to swallow my finger as well. At 
length — and how happy I feltl — they oould both 
iiwd themselves and fly. ~ This last accom- 
plishment was anvthing but agreeable to me, 
for no sooner did I open their door than out 
tliey would all fly, one after the other, and 
â– eat themselves on my head and shoulders, 
each one trying to make more noise than all 
the rest and outdo his brothers, 
t I got BO tired ot this sort of thing at last that 
one day I determined to set them all at liberty. 
I accordingly hung their oage outsid e the window 
and opened tiieir door, and they all flew, bat 
haok they came into the room again, and set- 
'tlod on me as usuaL " Then," said I, " I'm 
going gardening." â–  By the way they olcmg to 
me it waa evident their answer was: " And so 
are we." And so they did. . And as soon as I 
eommeneed operations ' with the spade, they 
commenced operations, too, by searching for 
and eating every worm I turned up, evidently 
thinking I was merely working for their bene- 
iit and pleasure..!. I got. tired of this, i- "O 
hother yen all T' I cried; " I'm sick of you !" 
J threw down my spa^e in - disgust, and before 
ithey eonld divine my intention, I had leaped 
tthe fence, a^d disappeared , in . the plantation 
iMyond. 

'Kow," said I to myself as I entered the gar- 

len that evening alter my return, and oould 

no sisiis of starlings. "I'm rid of you 

Siiagnes at lost." and I smiled with satisfaotion. 
t was short-lived, for just at that moment 
"Skraigh, skraigh, skraigh," sounded from the 
(trees adjoining, and before I could turn loot 
niy tormentors, setxningly mad with joy, were 
«11 sitting on me as usual. Two of them died 
iabout a week after this, and the , others, being 
cock and hen, I resolved to keep. 
' Both Dick and his wife book grew to be very 
ifine birds.' I procured them a large, roomy 

cage, with plenty of sand and a layer of straw 

in the bottom of it, a dish or two, a bath, a 
«lrinking fountain, and always a suppiv of 
Ifreoh green weeds ^ on the roof of their 
domicile. Besides their utnal \ food of 
'soaked bread, 6cc., tbav had sluifs ocoasion- 
ally, and flies and earthworms. Once a day 
the cage door was thrown open, and out they 
"both wonld fly with joyful skraigb, to enjoy the 
Inzory of a bath on the kitchen floor. One 
would, have imagined that bemg only two, they 
would not ' have stood on the order of their 
gomg ; but they did, at least Dick did, fur be 
insisted upon using the bath first, and bis wife 
liad to wait patiently until his lordship bad 
finished. This was part of Dick's domestic dis- 
cipline. When they were both choroughlr wet 
and draggled, and everything within a radius 
of two yards waa ia the same condition, their 
next move was to hop on to the fender, 
and flutter and gaze pensively into the 
Hre ; and two more melancholy ic o xiag, rag- 
ged wretches you never saw. When they be- 
gan to dry, then they began to dress ; and in a 
tew minutes Richard W<*s himself agaia, and 
•o was his wife. 

Starlings have their own natural song, and a 
•trange noise they make too. Their great 
faoulty. however. Is the gift of imitation, 
which they have in a woodeiiul degree of per- 
leotion. ihe hrst thing that Dick learned te 
imitate was the rumbling of earts and carriagea 
on the street, and very proud he waa ot the 
accomplishment. Then he learned to pro- 
nounce his own name, with the prefix "Pretty," 
whioh he never omittea, and to which he waa 
Justly entitled. Except when sitting on their 
peroh singing or piping, these two little pets 
Were never tired engineering about their cage, 
and everythmg was minutely examined. They 
were peneot adepts at boring boles ; by iaseri- 
ing the bill closed, and opening it like a pair of 
Boisjors, lo ! the thing was done. Dick's rule 
of conduct was that he hiiCseif shuuid have 
the first Of everything, and be allowed to ex- 
amine first into everything, to have the highest 
Veron and all the tit-bits ; in a word, te rule, 
Jung and priest, in his own cage. 1 don't sup- 
jiose ho hated his wife,- but he kept her ia a 
•tare of in/lorieus subjection to his re^-al will 
amd pleasure. " Hezekiah" was the name he 
j;ave his wife; I don't know why, but i am 
•are no one taught him this, lor he first used 
the name himself, and then, it was only to cor- 
reet his pronuuclation. 

i Someiimes Disk would ' sit himself down to 
•ing a song, and presently his wite would join 
lln %ith a few simple notes of melody, upou 
iwhleh Dick would step singing instantly and 
look round at her with indignation. *â–  Hcze- 
Iciahl HezekiahlF' he would say, which being 
jinterpreted clearly meant. " Hezekiah, my 
dear, how can you so far forget yourselt as to 
presume to interrupt your lord and matiter 
with that eraoked and quavering voice ol' 
yours 1" Then he would commence anew, and 
jtiesekiab, being so good-natured, would soon 
forget her seolding and again join m. This was 
too much focDiok's teraoer. and Hezekiah waaJLas ^^t Beaekiah oould not .live 






ae^rdinijly chased round aad round tlio 
Ciigo and soundly thrusiied. llis conduct 
altogether as a husband, I um sorry 
to may, was very far Iroui satisUictory. 1 
have Baul he always retuuieil tue hiuliest 
perch tor himselt; but souictiiiiea lie would 
turn ono e> o downward, and Reciug lli'zekiah 
sittiug so cosily and couteutedlv on her humhio 
perch, would at once conclude tliac her seat 
was mure comtortablo thiiu bis; so down lio 
would hop aud send her off at euc«. 

It was Dick's orders th«»t ilezckiah should 
only eat at m»al-tiuies; that meaut at all tiuioa 
when he choso to teeil, alter he WiW done. But 
1 supposa his poor wite was often a lituc him- 
nry ju the interim, for she wauid watcu ti i she 
got Dick lairly iutf) the middle of a 
song, and quite oblivious ot Burrouudin.Ef 
eircumstauces, then she would hop dowii 
and snatch a meal on the sU. But dire was 
the punisaiaent for the dcceit'if Dick found lier 
out. Sometimes I think sbe used to louj: tor a 
little lovo aud aHecliom, aud at such tmies she 
would jump up en the perch beside her hus- 
band, and with a loud cry sidle closo to him. 

"Hezekiah! Uozeiaah!" he wguid exciaim ; 
and if sue didut take that hint, she w:ia soou 
knocked to the bottom ol the cajiO. In laci, 
Diok was a domestio tyrant, but in all other lo- 
spe«8 a dear afi'ectiouaie lutle pet. 

Ono morumg Diok got out ot his cage by un- 
doing the fastening, and flow through tne opun 
wiuduw, determined to see what the world was 
like, leaving Hezekiah to aioui u. It was before 
5 on a iSummer'a morning that Ue escaped ; 
and I saw no more of him until, com- 
ing out of chui'oh that day, the people 
Wiite greatly astouishcd to see a bud fly 
UbwUj froia the sceepJe and alight ujion my 
shoulder. Ue retained hia perch all the way 
houi& He get so well up to opeuiag the tastening 
ot his cage-door that 1 had to cet a small s.>rin^ 
padlock, which defied him, althouiih he stumied 
it for mouths, and liaally gave ic up, as bumg 
one' of those tkings wnicu no fellow oeuld 
unde: stand. 

Diok soon began to talk, aud bo ere long 
had quite a large vocabulary ot words, which 
he WHS never tired using. As ho ^few very 
tame, he was allowed to live either out ol his 
cage or ia it ull day long aa he pieascd. Oiten 
he would be out in the garden ull alono tor 
hours toeethor. running about cy.lckin^ liies, or 
Bitting up in a tree repeating his le.>sons to 
himself, both v^bal aud miuicul. Tho cat 
and her kitteus were hia espeefal farerites. 
although be used to piay with the dogs as well, 
and often go to aiaep oa their backs. He 
took his lessons with great regularity, was an 
arduous student, and soon learue<i to i>ip& 
'• Duncan Gray" and •'The Spiig of Shillelah" 
without a single wroag note. I u^ed to whistle 
these tunes ever to htm, and it was quite 
amusing to mark his air of rant attention as 
he crouched dowu to listen. Wneu 1 had 
finished, he did not at ouoo begin to try the 
tune himself, but sat quiet and still for some 
time, evidently thinking it over in his own 
mind. In piping it, it he iorgot a part of 
the air, he would cry : " Doctor, doctor I " and 
repeat the last note once or twice, as much as 
to say: "What comes attar that?'' uud 1 
would finish the tune ler him. 

" Tse ! tse 1 tse !" was a tavorite exclamation of 
his, indicative of surprise. When 1 played a tune 
on the fiddle to him, he would crouch dowu 
with breathless attention, bomeiimes when he 
saw me take up the fiddle, he would go at once 
and peck at Hezekiah. 1 don't know wny he 
did so, unless 10 secure her keepin:; quiet. As 
soon us i had tiuished he would say " liravol" 
with three distinct intonatiuuB of the word, 
thus : " Bravo 1 doctor ; br-r-ravo ! bravo !" 

Diok wad extreineiy inquisitive and must see 
into everything. He used to anuoy the cat 
very muon by opening out her toes, or oven her 
nostrils, to examine ; and at times uu^sy used 
to lose patience, and pat hiui on lue back. 

'•EuC he would say. " What ia it? You 
r;»3i)al!" If two people were talking tojiether 
iiuderueath his cage, he would cock his head, 
'lengthen his neck, aud looking down quizzing- 
ly, say: "Kkl What is it< What do ^-ou 
say 1" 

He frequently began a sentence with the verb 
''la," putiiug great emphaaitt on iL "Isi" he 
would say musingly. 

" Is what, Dick V/ I would aak. 

"Is" he would repeat — "Is the darling star- 
ling a pretty pot i" 

" No question about it," I would answer. 

He certainly made the best ot his vocabu- 
lary, for he trotted out all his nouns and all his 
aUiectives time about iu pairs, and lormed a 
hundred curious eombinatieus. 

"ia," be asked one day, " tho darling doctor 
a rascal V' 

" Juat as you think," I replied. 

" Tse 1 tso 1 tse 1 Wljcwl whew I whew 1" 
said Dick ; and finishou off with " Duncan 
tiray" and tho fliac half of tne "Sprig of 
Shilielab." 

" Love is the aoul of a uate Irishman," ha 
had been taught to say ; but it was as fre- 
quently, " Love is the aoul ot a nate Iri^h star- 
iiug ; or, "Is love the soul of a darling pretty 
Dick i" and so on. 

One ctti'ioua thing is worth noting ; he never 
pronounced my dog's name — i'heodore Nero— 
once while ftwake ; Dut he often startled us at 
night by oaaling the dug iu clear riu;;iug tonus 
talking in ilis sleep. He used to be chattcriuj; 
and eingiu^ without inteimissioa all day loiig ; 
and if evoT he was silent then I knev.' he was 
doing qnschief; auct ii I went quiet. y 
into tjfe kitohen, I was sure to^ find 
him euher tracing patterns on a bar of 
soap, or examining and tearmg to pieces a par- 
cel of newiy-arrived groceries. He was very 
toud of wine and spirits, but knew when he 
had enough. He was not permitted to coiae 
mto tiie parlor without his ca^e ; but some- 
times at dinner, it the door were left ajar, he 
would silently enter like A little tiiief; when 
OBce fairly in, he would fiy on to the table, 
acreaai, aad defy me. He was very fond of a 
pretty ehiid that used to come to see me. If 
Matty was lying »on the sofa reading, Dijk 
would cewe and sing ou her head : tufu ho 
woiUd: go through all the motions of washing; 
and baihiag «u Matty's bonaie hair; whiou 
was, 1 thought, paying her a very pretty eom- 
pliment. 

When the sun shone in at my study window, 
I uaed to hang Dick's ea^o there, a-i a treat to 
bias. Dick would remain quiet lor perhaps 
twenty minutes, then the stiiiuess would loial 
irksome to hian, and presently ho would stretch 
hia head down toward me m a confiduntiai sort 
of way, and begin to pester we wuh his silly 
questions. 

" Dootor," he would commence, " is it, is it a 

Bate Iriah pet i" 

" SUence, and go asleep," I would make 
answer. •' I "want to write." 

" Ear be would say. " What is it I What 
d'ye say ?" 

ihen, if Z didn't answer : 

"Js it sugar — snails — sugar, snails, and 
brandy I" Then : " Doctor, Decter !" 

" Well, Dickie, what is it now <" i would an- 
swer. 

" Doctor— whew." ■ That meant I was to 
whistle to him. 

" isban'i," 1 would say sulkily. 

" Tse 1 tse 1 tso!" Uieiiio would say, and 
oooticue : "Doctor, wnl you go a-eliuiiiBu i" 
1 never oould resist that. Going a-ouuKiag 
meant going fiy-hawjiinj;. DicK always oalioa 
a fiy a ciiuk ; aud tms luvitaiiuu I wouii re- 
ceive a dozen times a day, ana bclaom reiused. 
I Would open lue cage aoor, auu Dici wouid 
perau himsuit ou my nut;er, aud 1 wouid curry 
him round the room, homing mm up to ine 
fiiea on the piciure irames. Aud ue never 
missed one. 

Oeee Dick iell into a bucket of watar, and 
called lustdy tor tho " doctor ;" and 1 was ouiy 
just in time to jSave him irum a watery grate, 
VVUeu 1 got him out, ho din not speaii a wora 
until he had gone to the lire aad opened .his 
wmtjs and leathen out to dry, lueu he said : 
" Brave I B-r-ravo I" several iimcs, aud went 
iorthwith auU attacked Hezakiau. 

Diok had a little traveling caj;e, for he often 
had to go with me by tram ; and no sooner 
did the train start ihau Diek used to coufiueuoe 
to talk oua whistle, very muun to tue aaiou-

to protrude just a very UttiO way, and retaruod

he wanted to know, "did she mean by going on

Hezekiah followed up her advantage. It was

Cadiz Harbok axu its Ijjat.mxn. — There 
is no place in the world more clioerful than 
Cadiz, Irom the brightness of its b!ue sea, its 
sky never flecked by a clouillot passing;, the 
snowy white'iess of its bouses, the beauty of its 
sqiiaree, with all their wealth of tropical trees 
aud flowers. Trup, Madi-id or Sevilla lia.s more 
dicerlissonciits of theatre and the like, but the 
climate of tho fii-st is simply abominable, and 
tho heat of tho second in Summer aud its cold 
in Winter simply unbearable. Neither ^Madrid 
nor Sevilla can be called truly healthy. But at 
Cadiz one breathea health at every step ; even 
to an invalid spirits and appetite never flag at 
Cadiz ; colds and coughs tiro uaheard of; one 

lives iu a perpetual primavero, or Spring. When 
the stranger in C.iiliz tires of its tropical 
squares, of its beautilul paseos, or soa walks, of 
which Las Delicias boars oflf tho palm, eom- 
manding as it does a wide view of t'no blue 
ocean, ho need only saunter down tho Calle San 
Francisco, pass through the Puerta del Alar, or 
Sea-gate, on to the wharves and fish and fruit 
markets, and he will find himself in a new 
world. It is mii-day. we will say, and a slight 
levante, or east wind, blowing ; the sea is bluer 
than the sky; in front of him, stretching from 
the edge of tho wharf to about half a mile out 
into the harbor, lie at anchor about four hun- 
dred boats, all heaving up and) down in 
the briirht sunlight, and all painted ot 
the gayest colors, rel, white, yellow, blue, 
striped ; those are the pa3sen:jer or smallest 
boars, each of which carries two men as crew, 
aud has a small lateen sail ; they are dsed to 
take passengers olf to the larger Viisssls lying 
further out to sea. Whan a stiff leoante is 

blowing, the noise and motion of this little 
painted flotilla tortn a most varied and plcasintr 
spectacle. ThesA little cratt are ca'.led "â– botes," 
and it is marvelous what an am.mnt ot eea 
they will stand. The other classes of boats 
and ships are mostly lor trading purposes. The 
trade of Cadiz is of throe kinds. First, the 
lar^e Frencli. English, >and Portuguese pack- 
ets which bring passengers and cargo, and de- 
part with lull cargoes of lead Irom the Surra, 
oranges trom tho Camyo, and wine from uhe 
vineyarda of Jerez and Port St. Mary. Then 
Ihero are the sailing vessels from America aud 
RusSa, which come m ballast to load with salt 
iroai the salt-fields of Sau Fernando ; this salt 
is the liueat in the known wer:d for salting 
fish in Norway, Kussia, Xewioundiand ; the 
salt is nearly always stowed in bulk, and I'ocms 
a heavy and very dangerous shitting load. 
Then, as regards larger vessoU oi the ateauur 
class, there aro ever coming and goius tho Ha- 
vana pacKcts, carrying mails, pass lingers, an J 
eargo to the Havana. It is a picturesque sight 
sometimes, in crossing the harbor m the gray 
of early dawn, to see two or three faiucas, 
crowded with Cuban volunteers, in their 
Ught-hluo cheeked shirts, shouting and hur- 
rahing most vociferoualy, standing out in 
harbor for the Havana packet. These yolun- 
tears are great rascals. Tuo.y receive as bounty 
tiity dollar.^, spend it lu debauctiery in Cadiz, 
get invalitied or Oesert, and come ba^k, aud lu 
a low months ckauge their aauau, get auwther 
bounty, and go oli to the Havana again. Ndxt 
in order to these larger vessels cenie the laoul, 
Iko mistico, and miatico de gallela. Tnoae are 
large, heavy cralt, buiit to stand any amount 
of sea, and two-masted. They are employed in 
the coasimg trade, brin-;ing leotatoea irom Va- 
lencia, wine from JVialag.i, oranges fi-oin Se- 
ville, timber trom the iiorih of Spaiu. Thoy 
vary iu touaagc from forty te eighty tons, 
ihe laoul nas one mast amidsl.ips and one 
iu the stern, aud carries enormous lateeu 
sails.. The mistico has tvt'O masts amidsuip.-i, 
carrying two lateen sails and a jib. These 
boats carry as crow fr«Ba fivo to nine nicu 
aud the patron, or Captain; tLo owner has 
aiwa^s eue-nalt of the pronts ot the voyage; 
aad, of tue other half, tlio patron has two- 
thirda, tho r«st being divided amou^ t;ie sailors, 
'ihe trade ot Cadiz is laat gomgaowu; the poor 
boatmen can scarcely p>ci up a liveiiUottd ; 
nearly ali tue large tradiug craii; 
now go up the river tj Sevilla. 
But still, there they are, these bronzed, ciaver, 
reckless sons ot tue haruox, always sutfering 
trom hunger aud want of clochiu;:, yet ever 
C'^utemed and warm-hoaried. There is plenty 
Ol Wit ou a Cadiz wharf, plenty ot ueep patuos, 
plentv Ot fatalism, plenty ot a strange Kiuil of 
aemi-Chriatiau morality, cxcaapliued lu the aay- 
iniis and doings ot tiieso miU, Hare is the 
boatman's favorite proverb, one forever ou his 
lips : " Weil, but do you not consider ma your 

tiiend {" '•Varajo" (i. c, it,) ^-no: no 

hay mas aniii/o que JJios, y un dui'o en la 
buisiUa." (fuere la no friend hut (jod, aud a 
dollar in pockoL !) He has a supr.^me, aay, tho 
Buprsmcal, contempt for tue rich a»id lUe out- 
wardly religiuiis. For himself he woara a 
charm, blessed bv some priest, round his neck; 
but there ail outward religion cuds for him. 
"Talk about rioa men; caramba, man; why, 
they go to church, yea, to please their wives 
whoa they are young; but one-halt of tham 
have very poor relations wanting for a little 
help, una they won't give it them, and then 
dare to say their prayers! Carajo, loa rieoi, 
t/csu, que Sun animates.'" (Curse the rich, 
what brutes they are!) These two last sayiugs 
aro, Siirely, replete with truth; indeed, is not 
tho last tho very echo of the Scriptural 
definition of "pure religion ond umle- 
filedJ" No one must blame the boat- 
man for his constajitly having on hia 
lipa tho word "tTesu," (Jesus;) it is na more 

than lor an Easlislimau to say '"GooA Lord," 

or "Lord bless me." Straniiely enough, no 
Andaiusian man or woman oi the lov7er elasa 
will sneeze or hear another eneczo without say- 
ing "Jeiu," and why, they know not; but to 
OBiit It, they say, is UHiu«ky. 1 havo tairly 
laughed outright, having sneezed in oomfiauy 
with eight or nine peasants to hear as many 
"Jesus" uttered, in a tone of absolute alarm. 
It you aro out in a rough sea with tho Cadiz 
boatman, he has only two phraaO:* to reassure 
you : iVo hace da>lo and Ao tenya listed cuiaado 
— that is, there is no danger, aal Do not 
trouble yourseii. It ho sayH ihia, you may teel 
ea.e; but if ho saya " Una, cosa muu feu," (:in 
ugly look,) then be sure there is nnscuief brew- 
ing; when the ponientc, or west wind, suddenly 
rises. It tuiabies a learlul sea into the 'oay, 
while the east wind, meotmg the tide, uiao 
raises a ua~ty, tlioUiih less daugeri.us, sea. 
Tao boatman's greeting to a stranger, or on en- 
tering a suop cr siail to buy or sell, is always, 
" Aiavado ae' iJios," (Praised be tiod!) to wmch 
tlie correct answer is "For sicinprc," (For.

that phrnoe will not convey to tho general

Tlin blocks are nearly all of one size, aud are 
laid in regular lines, which curve upward to- 
ward the end ifllo a beautiful iandike shape, 
while a few bushes and dwarf^ilnesgrow out of 
tne crevices. Our path was over the detritus, 
which stood up on end and at every possible 
angle, making the use of both hands necessary 
to secure a foothold ; but the ascent was com 
paralively easy, and what little trouble we had 
was tully repaid by the view from the top. 
The entire lake, except tlie southern part, 
opened out before us, a broad reach of blue re- 
flecting ou Its rippling surface the mountains 
surrounding it and tho gray clouds that came 
hurryiBg out of tho west with threats of 
Storm. Immediately below us was a awayiug, 
moaning net of pines, a«d a lew miles lo tho 
southward a massive, dome-shaped rosk stood 
out irem the 8h<>re. On one peak a bolt of 
enow extended downward almost to the water's 
eilge, and occasional streaks and wreaths of 
w^hite lay on mast of the other 8umaaitf>. The

leet. Our aneroid showed an approximate 
altitude ot 7,000 leet, and hero we paused tor 
an hour to refresh our exhausted lungs. W here,

grouud i lu titte crevices of the rock wo dis- 
covered several slips ot wood on which were 
written the names of laen who had been on the 
peak before us. One had hailed from Calcutta, 
another from Houg Kong, -another trom Chey- 
enne, another from ^lewpastle-en-Tyne, and 
another from Laramie City. What a strange 
rendezvous ler travelers was this, and from 
what distant pans of the world tho pilci'ims

week a rapid detour BoriU of the Pacide

miles, their objective point being Spanish Peak, 
which was occupied as a main inangulatiou 
station. Much new country was observed and 
sketched, and roada and traiia hitherto uu- 
• known were followed aud traced preliminary 
to the delineation upon the man. Long Valley

other day, sauntering throittfa Epping Forest, 
I discovered the humble stiMio ot the late Ben 
.Herring, whose pictures':©! t arses are known on 
both sides of t he Atlantic^ ffltil was a " wooden 
shanty" built iu the gardeh jof bis cottage, 
and for the amusemeUfi of m* Ireiaure hours he 
had constructed a mittiatiire jrailway with a 
painted panoramic ba«jskgr|i)!inij.-' There were 
stoitions, points, switch|s, It^t^ |tll the mechani- 
cal contrivances nenessary toi'make traveling 
dangerous, and ocoaaioiaUJii.thje animal painter 
contrived a collision 'wfhiciiii gave him intense 
satisfaction. His greate^jt ^orks were the 
"Horse Fair" and the two! Jw6ll-known prints 
of racers and hunters, j , JR :> 

His father x)ainted the tlJrfeeifamous heada at

ing story ia told. Ha w;ejh.t to cash a largo 
check at the Bank of Englk^di' " Are you Mr. 
Herring?" a«ked tho Cashaier,; who happened 
to be a great admirer of] Jlie lartiat. "lam." 
The Cashier looked dojibtiT^ly at him. " That 
is my signature," said Biifrmg. "I possess 
one of your pictures, |Sir|," ! saiid the Caahier, 
" and love it — if you are !ftr.i Herring." The 
artist took the check and junderneata his in- 
dorfement sketched vi[ith| i\taw rapid touches 
the well-known ''Thlrea; Q-rases." '"Perhaps 
that signature will conviiiisti you." The Cashier 
beamed his recognitioh of' Mie:work, paid ttie 
check, and became one of ^Jerrmg's most inti- 
mate friends. I. |f ,

Su.MMKR Days i.\ Gkkexla^d.— We, ', 

mean the ladies of the Colony ot Gk>dtha&b 
were very lond of our little private gatherings, 
or afternoon parties. In Suuidjer they gener; 
ally came ofi' in the op an air, on tha hills, or in [ 
our garden, which was the largest in ths place. 
In Winter we, of coarse, held our parties in- 
doors. Tho house which we inha'^ited was 
spacious aud comfortable, facing a largo ii^ 
closure called the garden. This was by nc 
means analogous to European gardens, bnt, 
nevertheless, it was a moat delightful plaae ao- 
eording to our Greenland idea.?. The fenoe coa- 
siatcd of rather a high wall of stones aad turf, 
on tho top of which wa-i a red wooden railing. 
A broad gravel pat'a divided the inclosed spase 
into two parts, ose containing rows of radishes, 
cabbagee, carrots, and other vegetables ; while 
the other couiisted o.' a nici gresn expanse radi- 
ant with dandelions and little white flowers. In 
a corner of the Litter half we ha 1 a grassy seat, . 
and at the south end there stood a small greea- , 
bouse for the cultivation of Earopean flo wen 
and strawberries, lu a sort of porch a table " 
an«l several rustic chairs wora arraaief, and- 

tbitber we often broii.rh!; our needle-work, dis- 
cussing, over a cup of early tea, tha aST^ir^ of 
the town witti mu-^h spirit; at the same time 
catching ghmpsaa of thi hoin'.;ly roses aud e«- 
joying their delicious scent. We seldom pro- 
ferred the closed room tn the fre^h air oat3i.do, 
where we encamped amang snailinj daisies or 
on the grassy Seat. There many a stitja ha» 
been made, either in sawing, crochc^ ar 
knitting, while we merrily chatted Bat per^ 
hafts we oi'teuer went to lower bill-tops th^n tt 
tho gar.'len. 'There we also brought our needl» 
work and a book, our tresn-made eake*,

tea-things. Wo did not like to bring a gooj .

Sametimes our goats would par us ao uuex-

Supreme Court, and members of the rggilv pro- 
Teaalon who hare not of late visited the bmldinK 
will b« pleased to learn that in Chambers and the 
Special Term rooms TentUation has been very much 
^proTod. It will be remembered that In these 
rooBM the benches were between the windows and 
thooo oonld not be opened in cool weather withoat 
anob annoyance to both indge and coonsel. The 
iHoncbes have now been translerred to the side of 
the apartment and the cooscqaeoce is there is both 
improved ventilation and. ligut. Nearly ail of the 
rooma_have been newly ctrpeted and better tar- 
nished with cbaira and writinK materials than ever 
before, and altogether the place woara a cheerlal 
and iuvitinc asiiect. Must of the court rooms look 
BMit In their new attire, bot the gandy carpets in 
Chambers and the General Term detract somewhat 
from rheir appearance. 

I)arlnK the month of October Chambers of the Sn- 
preme Court will be held by Judge Barrett, while 
the General Term will be prestded over bv Chief 
jQstlce Davis and Jadeea Brady and DauieU.

this court will be presided over by J udgo Kobinson;

Daly; Part U, by Judge Van Brunt, and Part IIL 
t>T Jndxe J. F. Ualy. In the Marine Court, Trial 
Terms, Parts I., IL. and IIL. will bo 
held by Judges Alter, Goepp, and Sianott^ 
and Chambers by Judse Sheridan. ^Efforts bave 
ot late b«en made to secure another room m order 
that ftoottaer pare of Ibe court could also be held, 
and someoF.the nnmeruus cases no\r on the oalenditr 
•Uapoaea of, but thus far tbey have proved uosuc- 
oeaaiiil, ana there !ia little probability that a roum 
will be secnred belc-e November. Judge MoAdam 
has been assisned to preside at this part. 

A.xuon£ the casea on the c£ileudars of'the different

MISSED — THE LIABILITY OF COBPORA- 
TION ST0CICn0UDEl?S — RIGHTS OF A 
MORTGAGOR IN POSSESSION. 
Washington, Sept. 30.— Tho following deci- 
sions have been rendered : 

No. 553.— ff. Coykendall, garnishee, plaintif in 
error, vs. The JUinois and Mississippi Telegraph 
Company. —la error to the Circuit Court for the 
District of Iowa.— On tho 24th ol May, 1872, the 
telegraph company recovered iu the Circuit Court 
of the United States for the District of Iowa a 
lodgment lor the sum of J23,734 04 and costs. On 
the 13th of June following execution was issued. 
Tho Marshal to whom the process was directed, on 
the ICth ot that month served it by attachins as 
garnisbecs several persons, one of whom was Coy- 
kendall, the plaintiff in error. On the 27th of Oc- 
tober, 1373, he filed his answer, and ou the 27th of 
October, 1874, he tiled a further answer. By tho 
lirst answer he admitted that since he was gar- 
liisheed he had received for and paid over to 
the railroad company more than $37,000. Iu his 
second answer he set forth that he was the agent of 
the railroad company at Des Moineo, and that his 
duties were to sell tickets and receive and ship 
freiaht, and to recfuvo the chargfs upon such 
freight. For the moneys received both for tickets 
and treifht » laree prouortion belonsed other com- 
panies, liut how much ho did not know. All the 
moneys he receiveu were roguUrly transmitted to 
the Assistant Treasurer of the Des iloines company. 
The proper apportionment of the moneys was made 
by the officers of the company at Keokuk, 

and the Ues Moines compuDy was accountable 
to the other companies for what belonged to them. 

He was not la the employ of any other compiiny nr 
person during the time mentioned, and was not re- 
spousible to au.v other company or person lor the 
moneys which he received as above Btatoil. The 
gtoss araouBt received by him between tbe time he 
was garuisheed and the appointnientof tho Kei'eiver 
who took possesaion of tho road was ^^7,000. 
The case was submitted . and argued by the 
counsel upon both sides. The next day it was 
I stated to the court by tho counsel for tha defeiid- 
i ant that proof could be adduced ot the proportion 
J of the moneys in question which belonged to otber 
i companies, and time was asked to procure it. The 
j application was overruled, and the court gave judg- 
ment for $27,000 and coats. Tho carniabee there- 
upon excepted to the ruling of tbe court refusing 
i further time. The case having been submitted to 
', the eourt and argued by tue conusol of both par- 
â–  lies, tbe garnishee not asking for a jtiiy, 
i the record iu this respect shows no error. 
; It is to be taken that both parties WLUved a trial by 
' juiy, and they are bound accordingly. (Phill:p8 va. 
' J-'restou, 5 How., 278; Campbell vs. ISoyreau, 21 

How., 2:J4; Kelsey VS. Forsythe, Id., 66.) The pro- 
ceeding not having J)een according to the act ot ' 
March 3, 1865, this conrt has uo power to examine 
any ruling of the court below excepted to durin.; 
the progress of the trial. (Campbell vs. Boyreau, 
supra ; Guild and others vs. Pouton, 18 How., 135 ; 
Kearney vs. Case, 12 Wall., 275; Deckeuson 
vs. the Planters'l Bank. 16 Id., 251.) The 
only point attempted to be presented by 
the. bill of exueolions was the refusal 
of the conrt to give time for the production 
of further evidence. i.t this subject was beiore us 
in such a shape that we could consider it, it would 
be a conclusive answer that the matter was cue 
resting m tbe discretion 01 tbe court. Its determi- 
natieu, tberetore, eould not be reviewed by this 
tribunal. AUirmed, Mr. Jusuce Swayae Ueliv- 
erud the opiLion.

Steam-boat 1>. Jf. Martin, her tuckCe, t&c. — Appeal 
from the Circuit Court for ino Eastern District of 
2s'ew-York. — Tnis suit was brought by Barney, the 
libelant, to recover damages for his wrongiul 
eviction from the steamboat D. K. Martin. He 
' d.-manded in his libel 125,000 UamMges, but in tbe 
I District Court recovered only ioOO. From this 
j decree tbe clai>maut appealed. Barney did not ap- 
1 peaU Tho Circuit Court reversed the decree 
i of tbe District Court * and dismissed the 
libel. From this decree of the C;tcuic Court 
Barney has appealed to this court. The claiuiaut 
now movL-3 to dismiss the appeal because " tho mat- 
ter In dispute" dots not exceed $2,000, This motion 
mu£t be granted. Baxney havin:^ failed to appeal 
frutu the decree of the District Court, is concluded 
by ihe amuunt there found iu his tavor. He ap- 
pears upoc the record as satistied with what was 
done by that Court. In tbe l/ircuit Court the mat- 
ter in controversy was his right to recover the sum 
which had been awarded biiu as damages. If this 
court had decided against the claimant, he could not 
have asked an increase of his camagej, (Stratton 
vs. Jarv;B, 8 Pet., 9, 10 ; Houseman vs. Scuoouer, 
Korth Carolina, 15 Pet,, 50.) The matter iu dispu.e 
here is tbat which was in dispute in tbe Ciicuit 
Court, and aa thj matter iu uisoute here cannot 
exceed what was in dispute there, it toilows that 
the amount iu controversy between the parties in 
the present state of tbe proceediuga is not eulli- 
ciaut to give os jurisdiction, (Gordon vs. Oiiden, 3 
Pet., 34; Smith vs. Honey, 3 Pet., 469; Waiker vs,

The defendant, tbe Cummurcial Biuk oi Aiaaama,

of that State, and had become insjlvent. i.ne appel- 
lant, a citizen of tue 6tate oi South Carolina,

Plaiutid' alleged and proved tiiat ue was tho owner

he had dcojauded payment and h..d b en reiusud. 
The bank admitted its lusolveuey i.ud a E.ceiver 
was appointed by consent, to wind up its alfairs, 
audpuolicaiion made tor all creuicors to come lu 
and prove their claims. 'Ihe Keceiver maue ins

were reterred to a Master, who reported, and lo 
wnosu report uo exceptions werw talteu. Alter all 
this was uone, the appellant here aud the piaintiii 
below appeared in person aud hied numerous peti- 
t.ona auu atlidavits signed bv himself asking t«> set 
aside the aeoree, excepiing to the reporiit, and sug- 
gesting many otber matters and things in if hich be

liiiu ot all this ^eema to be the charge that his coun- 
sel ueaurteu bis interest, tailed to excepc lo tne re- 
ports, aud consented to the decree because they re- 
ceived what he ualied an exorbitant allowancu tor 
their services out oi the fund whioh should have 
gone to the creditors of the bank, thereby diminish- 
ing tbe amount of his dividend. To all this it is 
sutdeient to say tbat these motious cannot be coii- 
siuered here. They are mainly adurea.ted to tne 
discretion of the court, coming as they do after a 
dual decree ou tbe merits. Ii appellant desired to 
place the case iu a position where this court 
could review the acuou of tho court on that 
class of ^ntstions, he should have filed 
bis bill ot review aud made the proper 
issaes, and supported it by depositions. As it now 
stands his motions are nnauppor.ed by anything 
but his own atUaavit. So as to tho errars alleged lu

that the creditors Of the bank have not Ucou paid 
in lull the amount ot their claims, as alloned by the 
Master and conilrmed by tne couit. By tne law cl 
iho charter the atoekholuera are liable to be called 
ou lor cBUtributiou to miilie up this deheit. Tiiey 
have not been made parties to this proceeding. JSo 
rule or process has been sci-ved on them, nor 
any motion or petition or i)iaver filed 
to 8U»ject them to liabiJiiy. The decree, 
however, orders 'Ih.'vt the said ComniBrcial Bank

they are hereby forever discharged from any liabil- 
ity lor an account, of auyucut, a-c, now or hereafter

the atockuolders has not been put iu issue iu thu 
case, and that white for this leusan, that part of 
the decree may be voni, it is still thoucbt tbe ap- 
pellant has the iit:ht to have it removed out ot the 
way of hia proceeding against the shareholders if ho 
should desire to do so. Decree lo be modified in this 
respect, and when so modified, afliuied. Mr. Justice 
Miller delivered the oxiioion.

ibo biU was filed to prevent by iujunctiuu the col- 
lection of the moneys upju which the jadgiueut iu 
favor of the tclegrapu companies was founded. 
There Is no controversy between tho parlies as to 
the lacis. Oh the 16th ot February, ldo7, tne rail- 
road company, by its then corporate name, 
executed a mori;iai20, and on the lat of 
October, 136tj, by its corporate name, as 
altered, executed anotlier. Both wero given to 
secure the payment of ita bjnda aa set forth. A

niort^auel property, The riiaii wiis .'itill iu 
poaaei-..«iou of tho company. The decree made 
-no provision for disturijiuif their possession, 
and nouo whatever as to the income of the 

road between Itio time of the decree and 
tbe time ot the sale. Tlie telesranh company pro- 
ceeded, as we have stated, iu diapoainii of tho c^iho 
at law. Oil the iOtb of June, laTi. the appoUauts, 
who are the Tiustees in tho two mortsaKes, filed 
this bill. On tho 9th of September, 1873, alter the 
Sheriff had advertised the mortgaged premises for 
sale, the decree in the State court was amended by 
ptoviding tor tho appointment of "a special Re- 
ceiver ot all the income and earnings of the road," 
between the, date of tbo decree and the 
time fixed by the Sheriff for the sale to 
be maoo by him. This was done with a 
saving of tlie rights of the telegraph company. 
Tho special E;>ceiver took possession ou the 15th of 
September, 1S73 ; the sale by the Sheriff' was made 
ou ibe 17. h of October, 1873 ; the road waa operated 
by ihe company up lo tbe time when the liecoiver 
took posaessiou. During this period tho fund was 
receiveil for which iudgmeut was aiven againat 
Covkeudall. The proceedings in the case at law 
baving been held valid, iho teloaraph company is 
eutillod to the fund iu controversy, unleas the ap- 
pellants have shown a better riyht to it. Tbe ques- 
tion arises upoiT tho mortgages. The civil 
la« is the apiing-iiead of th" English 
jurisprudence upon the aubject of these securi- 
ties. Originally, according to thai jurisprudence, 
morteages of the clasi to which tho.ne here in 
question belong, vested the fee, subject to be di- 
vested by the discharge of the debt at tho day lim- 
ited for ita payment. If default was then made, 
tho premises were finally lost to tbe debtor. In 
the progress of time tnore liberal views prevailed, 
and the debt came to b& considered as tho princi- 
pal thiuE, and the mtn-tgaeo only an Incident and 
security. In tho present adato of the law, where 
there is no prohibiiion by statute, it is competent 
for the morgagee to pursue three remedies at the 
same time. He may sue ou the note or obliea- 
tion, he may bring an actum of ejectment, 
^ud he may file a bill for loroclosure and sale. 
(I Hilliard on Mort.. 9, 62 ; ib., 104. Ill ; Andrews 
vs. Sutton, 2 Bland, 6C5.) The remedy last men- 
tioned Wis resorted to in the State court by the 
mortKiagees in tho second mortga»;e, those in the 
tirat having been made parties, and that mortgaee 
thus brought before the court. That court, tbere- 
foie, had full jurisdiction as to the richta of all tbe 
par.ies touching botli instruments. It would 
iiavo been competent for the court in 

limine, upon a proper showinjr, to ap- 
point a Keceiver and clothe him with the 

duty of taklug charge of tho road and receiving its 
earnings, with such limit o( time aa it mitrbt see fit 
to Diescribe. It initcht have doue the Suine thiug 
subsequently during the progress of the suit. 
When the final decree was made, a Receiver might 
have been appointed aud required to receive all tho 
income aud earuin^s until the sale was made and 
confirmed, and possession delivered over to tbe 
veudee. JS'othing of this kind was done, aLd noth- 
ing is left for esammation but the effect of 
the murtjiases. On this point It is said 
that a mortgagor m posse.'ision is liable 
for interest and not for rent. The railroad com- 
pany waa in possession, and posiseaaion draws after 
it the right to receive and apply tbe income, and 
the amount to be applied in th o operation of the road 
was in the discretion of the company; so was the 
surplus in the discretion of the company aa to what 
should be done with it. The road was. theretora, 
lltblo to the creditors of the company, as if tho 
mortgages did not exist. Tho mortgajrees did uoth- 
ini to protect the.nselves, and the Trustees, the 
appellants, have no risht to the fund in contro- 
versy. Affirmed. Mr. Justice Swayne delivered 
the opinion.

Last Winter lioaloy U. Weston, while walk- 
ing on the platform of tbe Kew-York Elevated 
Kailroad at tbe lower end of Greenwich street, fell 
on the ice and broke his leg. He brought suit 
against tbe company, damages being laid at S9,C00 
aud a verdict waa roodered iu bis tavor. Then the 

detendanta, claiming to have discovered new and 
important evidence, moved in the Superior Court, 
before Jadge Sedgwick, for a new trial. A de- 
cision was yesterday rendered denyinz the motion 
on tbe ground that the defendants bad voluntarily

FOREIGiN notes: 

M. Barbr^, the publielier in Paris of the 
cheap editions of dramatio works whioh were to 
popular, died recently. • 

M. Merniot, the composor of "Iloland h Ron- 

ccvaux " and "Joanuo d'xVrc," baa been very ill. 
lie is now, however, cilnaidered out ot danger. 

M. Gatnbetta has entirely recovered Iroin his 

lata illness, and will now visit England. The work- 
iuK iMcu of lijudou a^-o to receive him iu grand 
Style. • 

A nmnber of arrests of persons charged with 

croeltv to animals wero lately made in Paris. The 
Prefect of Police has j|iat iaausd strict orders upon 
this subject. \ 

Ono of the Prussian) Provincial Governments 
has prohibited pigeou-sbooting matches on tbe 

ground that tbey come nnder tho dednicion of cru- 
elty to animals. |j' 

M. Alpha;nd, Direqtor of Public Works in 
Paris, has assumed the charge of the promenades, 
gardens, and plantation^ .of trees to be made in and 
about the exhibition grojdnda for 1878. 

The Parisian Jardml ^'Acolimatation has just 

received from Busala ajpair of changeable bares. 

In tho Winter they ari; White as snow, but from 
February until November ithey become brown. 

A vistfbr is to arrivej iii Paris shortly who will 
attract considerable atteAtlon — King Ko. The par- 
ty in queation reigns oybr a portion of the LiKind 
of Borneo. Ho is accompanied by a numerous suite. 

The Bubacriptions being taken up in Paris for 

the purpose of erectiuK* tomb to F61ic!en David 

have reached a large fliure, and it is evident that 
ami^le means will be received to erect a splendid 
monument to his memory, 

The dog census in Paris makes known that 

taxes are paid on 11-2,000 of those animals. It is 

computed that there are at least 40.000 dogs unpaid 
for, making a total of over 150,000 does in the city — 
one to every dozen inhabitants. 

A telegram from Sicily states that a strong 

shock of earth quake wks felt in the island on the 

morning of the 13tb, lasting about thirty seconds. 
Great alarm prevailed at Messina, but no persons 
were hurt. Some damage waa done to houses at 
Bet;gio. 

Iu tho plain s ol St. Denis working men are 

now commencin g the first section of the Railway 

de Grande Cemture, which is to encircle Paris so as 

to connect the outer forts and fortifications now be- 
ing; and to be constructed. The work wiil be pushed 
forward rapidly. 

As tlie troops stationed in Paris ean no longer 

drill upon the Champs do Mars, where the works 
for the Exhibition of 1678 are proceeding, the plain 

of Bagatelle, at the Bois do Boulogne, has been 
placed at the disposal of the Minister of War bv 
the city authorities. 

It is announced that M. Boucicaut, the 
owner of the Ban March 6 Stores, In Paiis, haa pur- 
chased the C bateau de Chamarande, formerly the 
property of the Duke de Persigny. At bis death 
M. Arnous-Eivi^re bought the place. He has just 
sold it to M. Boucicaut. 

M. Leverrier, the famojiis French astronomer, 
has resnmed his soirees at the Observatoire. On 
these occcsions all tbe savants meet, and inatters of 
Sreat importance are diacusssd. M. Leverrier has 
also resuMod the coarse of hi* scieutilic lectures ; 
they are always crowded. 

A journal of Nimos i(^ard) states that the 
residence of M. !N^uma iunsset, wine merchant 

there was burglariooaly edtered dnrine the absence 
of tho family in the counti'yi and property consist- 
in e of monev, jewels, or k,e«uritles for a sum of 
200,000 francs, was stolen. ' I ; 

Each year the University of France sends to 
the committees who have for object the assistance 

ol! Alsatians and Lorralnii jwho voted to remain 
French sums of money culleoted in its principal 
establishments. This year jthe subscriptions of tbe 
university are 14.000 francs.' i 

The works lor the Exposition in the Champ 
de Mars are being pushed fbirward with great activ- 
ity. Tbe ground iaalmest iqolosed, and the railings 
along the Avenues de Sudi^ii, de la B3urdonnaye, 
and de la ftlotto-Piquet, as ifM as in the Bues l)e- 
ftaixand £i6ber, have been ^xed. 

M. Victor Hugo has wrftten a letter to the 

committee who raise suDscrjptions for the purpose 

ot assisting the families of ^hp men transported for 
havini! taken a part iu the Commune, announcing 
th.st he makes over to tbemjtbo annual paniiou ot 
450 fVancs allowed him by th^. Society of Aathors. 

The proprietors and t<|iiant.3 of the houses 
which ate to be torn down tij'make way for the new 
Avenue de I'Ocera, in Paris,] have received notice to 
vacate the premises before' the 15th of October, at 
which date the work of destruction will commence. 
It, is understood that the entire avenue, from the 
Place de TOtora to tlJe Piade du Th^dore-Frau9*i.s, 
will be built up before 1678. 

About BIX years ago a! Frenchman, of the 
name of Vrain-Lucas, was sefltenoed to two yeara' 
imprisonment for having palmed off noon tbe late 
M. Chaglea a nambei of forged autographs ; among 
them, aa it may be remembered, being several sup- 
poaod letter* of Pascal, which M. Chasles submitted 
with great pride to the Academie des Sciences. 
The two years' imprisonment does not appear to 
have had a sobering effect upon Vrain-Lncas, for he 
has again been tried, and this time condemned to 
four years' imprisonment, fur trading upon the con- 
fidence of "collectors " and sellers of old books. 

As is known, the celebrated painter L6opold 
Robert, the author of the Moissonneurt, was born 
at Neuchdtel, in Switzerland, and died at Venice. 
Hia fellow-oountrymea opened a aubsciiption to 
erect a monnment to his memory, and it produced 

2,500 francs. That memorial, which will be erected 
ill the Cemetery of the Lido, at "Venice, is thus 
composed: A pyramid, fixed azaiust the wall of 
the burial-ground, is in the granite of Berne, tray, 
red, green, and black. The faces of the upper part 
are sliebtly curved, and on the front one is on- 
crusted a fine bronze medallion fr«ra tbe graver of 
M. Fritz Landry, of Neuchdre!. The base will beti 
the simple inscription, '' A Lfiopold Kouert aes 
amis ;" and belew. the two dates of hia birth aud 
oeceaae, 1794—1835. - *- 

Count Anton Auersperg, (Anastasiua Griin,) 
who died on ',hel-2th ult., was piobaoly the most gifted 
of con temporal y German poet 1. His mo.st popalar 
worlts are Der Ictzte Ritter, Schutt, and Die Spazier- 
gange eines Wiener Poeten. At the time of his 
death he wa? eng.iged in correcting tiio proof sbcets 
of a new w»rk, which it is expected will shortly 
leave the press. Tho deceased w.is an Anstriau 
Privy Councilor, ampmborot the Austrian Upper 
House, and of the Austrian Imperial AcTdemv, &g. 
He was born, at Laibach in 1806, and married in 
lb39 the CoMuteBa Marv of Attema, by whom he 
leaves a aon. The recent seventieth anniveraary of 
his birth was celebrated all through Austria aa a na- 
tional I6te, and from all parts of Germany tokens of 
eympaihy were sent to hita. 

MR. GLADSTONES "ANCESTORS." 
To the Editor of the New- York I'imes : 

Sm : Tour contemporary the World haa 
been lately so engrossed in the preparation of gas- 
tronomic " literatoor" of tne Jtitchen that it has in- 
cautiously referred to Mr. Gladstone's "ancestors" 
wiihout consultins; its dog-eared copy of The Eng- 
lish Landed Gentry. In a neat editorial crumb in 
yesterday's issue it makes the followicg state- 
ment: — The Buddeu reappearance pf Mr. tilad- 
Btone in the political arena as the leader of a great 
popular movement Against tbe Eastern iiolicy of 
Lord Beaci>nsflold, give'< timeliness and point to the 
oharmiug account which wo elsewhere give of hia 
beautiful home at Hawarden, the seat of his an- 
cestors, the Glyns." 

I have hitherto been under the impression that 
Eiirht lion. William Ewart Gladstone wai the son 
ol John Glad.stoue. Esq., a Liverpool merchant, an* 
a Scotchman by birth ; that his mother was a daPEh- 
terot Andrew Iliberlson, at ono tune Sheriff of 
Dingwall, aud that tho estate of Jfawardeu came to 
hira"tliroui:h hia marriasre into the GIvn farailv. 1

<3en. Dix will address the people of New-

/We xteed not urge oiir readers to attend th e

jiipeet which is felt for Gen. Dix in New- 
iYfnk, and which is the natural result of his 
jgreat and long-continued services t<r the 
vonntry, will secure him an ample audience. 
>He is one of the many men whom our State 
lias contributed to public life who have 
Ixune au honorable part in the history of the 
Boontiy, and whose worth New-Yoi^ has 
Mlways been eager to acknowledge. In his 
mind dignity and impartiality are not in- 
jBompatible with strength of conviction and 
eamestiMss of purpose. He never learned 
to love his country as a "confederated 
Union," tempered by the reserved right in 
eaoh State to ''snap t^e tie of confederation 
)B8 a nation might break a treaty." He did 
detennine his patriotism by the loca- 
m of a eomma, and when the rebellion 
t>roke out, the question of its snppression 

{Was not to Mm one of "propriety." la a 
word, there are many points of difference 
between him and the wily demagogue at 
the head of the Democratic ticket, all of 
.whieh ate beet indicated by the test he 
lumself jmipoted when he asked where the 
teountry would have been now if all our cit- 
^Mns had felt and acted as Mr. TiiJ>KN did

In a very different position to that in which 
the derotioa of such men as Gov. Dix has 
placed it ' 

^ How doeely Mr. Tildkn is affiliated in 
principle with the Southern Democrats of 
j^te Cidhooii school, his letter to Mr. 
tX^ST, written on the eve of the rebellion, 
leiearly shows. This document, which we 
pue g^ad to see has been republished for use 
I the present campaign, a£SLrms the abso- 
ite sovereignty of the State, and the fra- 
gile ant^^rity of the Union, m terms which 
taioat have delighted the hearts of Jrff. 
JDaTU and his fellow-traitors. The States, 
pe asserts, have "complete Governments, 
holding the purse and wielding the sword. 
lEhey are held together," he adds, " only by 
m compact of confederation." What this 
^Bompaot amounts to, in Mr. Tilden's 
ppinion, he is candid enough to ex- 
plain. It is "the single, slender, conven- 
tional tie which holds States in confedera - 
fcion," having no strength compared with 
^hat posaessed by States, which are at lib- 
erty *♦ to snap the tie of confederation" 
wheaever public opinion within their boun- 
|EUuiea demands the proceeding. True, he 
Aesigaates this right on the part of States 
as "ioTolutioB organized," as distinguished 
jfrom "constitutional secession," but the 
distinotion implies no essontial difference, 
since, according to Mr. Tildex, the Uaion 
piad neither the right nor the power to re- 
taia the States as parties to the V compact" 
â– gannst their wilL Why T Bacaose, he ex- 
pl«doa, in " a compact of confederatloa be- 
tY/^een the States" "there can be 
3KO eonunon arbiter, invested with aa- 
. ffchorities and powers equally capable 
with those which courts possess 
between individuals, for determining and 
enforcing a just construction and execution 
of the instrument." la other words, each 
iBtate, being the sole judge in its own be- 
lialf in. a dispute turning upon the constrac- 
,tioa to be put upon the Constitution, might 
" anap the tie" at any moment, and the Fed- 
eral power could not rightfally object. Such 

iMing Mr. Tilden's reudering of the Consti- 
tution and the Union, his Kent letter was a 
Texy important contribution to the litera- 
tore of the rebellion. It was one of those 
formal expressions of Northern Democratic 
opinion which encouraged the secessionists 
to take the decisive step, and which deluded 
them into the belief that the North would 
Quietly submit to the dismsmberment ol the 
Crnion. . 



in the present contest. They show not only 
that he sustained the pretensions of the se- 
cessionists and aided them as far as he 
could without joopardizing himself, bat that 
the reverence he now affects for tho Consti- 
tution must be interpreted in the light of 
the meaning which he attaches to that in- 
strument. Much that is suggestive in this 
respect is apparent in the speeches deliv- 
ered during tho last tew weeks by promi- 
nent ox-rebels in Ihs Southern States. 

From Bkx. Hill upward — or down- 
ward — they insist that the South has 
always been faithful to the' Constitution, 
and that the North alone is chargeable with 
its infraction. Following out this idea, 
they contend that, in common with the 
Northern Democrats, they are now fighting 

for a restoration of constitutional authority 
at Washington, for a return to what they 
declare to be the original meaning of the 
Constitution as the South understood it, 
and as the renowned Tildeji expounded it. 
Not that there is the slightest disposition 
in any quarter to renew the experiment of 
secession. We give the South credit for 
sense sufficient to make sure of the ac- 
ceptance of the situatioQ so far as the 
futility of attempting the disruption of the 
Union is concerned. Nevertheless, there is 

room for dangerous controversy in the oppo- 
site views of the two parties with reference 
to the binding force of legislation enacted 
under a rendering of tho Constitution 
which Mr. Tildkn and the South repudiate, 
as well as of the constitutional amend- 
ments, whose validity depeYids upon the 
efficacy of ratifying acta which the State- 
rights Democrats at the time declared not 
to be binding. Let Mr. Tildkx be elected, 
and let there be a Democratic Congress to 
uphold him, and the old State-rights issues 
must be revived in full force. 



It must be pleasing to the Centennial 
Commissioners that they have succeeded in 
giving the greatest possible amount of 
pleasure to so many worthy people by their 
system of awards. Instead of the beggarly 
few who could, in former years, have the 
luxury of quarreling over the question 
of superiority of merit, as attested in 
a competition with the world, this for- 
tunate class is now counted by thou- 
sands. The advertising columns already 
have evidence of the extent to which the 
Centennial awards have carried a sense of 
triumph to the h^sJ^ts of exhibitors. We 
read, for instance, in one paragraph, that 



' Messrs. 



& 



of 



received the 



highest honors at the Exposition for " (let 
us say) hand-organs. In tho next we learn 
that " It is the indisputable fact that the 
highest award for the best " hand-organs 
" at the Centennial Exhibition has been 

accorded to Messrs. & ." A third 

gentleman somewhat dubiously remarks 
that " no impetus of 'awards' was needed 
to enhance his reputation," while a fourth 
firm states bluntly that " the awards are 
all of the same grade, and no exhibit is 
pronounced the best of its class," and con- 
tents itself with the reflection that it has 
itself " taken all the honors obtainable." 
This delightful variety will be enhanced 
when extracts from the judges' reports can 
be made. 



There is talk of a bolt m Butlkr's dis- 
trict, and of running Judge Hoar against 
the "regular" candidate. We hope that 
the bolt will be made, though a man of 
sterner stuff than Judge Hoar would be 
more likely to lead it successhiUy. There 
is no virtue in regularity in Butler's case. 
A process, however unimpeachable in its 
management, which turns out a candidate 
who is not a Republican can have no claim 
on the support of Republicans. It is incon- 
ceivable that any rules of party obliga- 
tion can require a Republican to vote for 
an inflationist and an enemy of reform . 
The substance is more than the form, and 
nothing could be more genuinely Republi- 
can than opposition to Butler. 



Theae eyidenees of Mr. Tildbn's opinion

Cooilfttation, and the rights of the States in

GOV. SEYMOUR'S SPEECH. 

Apart from the considerations arising out 
of the condition of his health, it is now 
evident that ex-Go V. Seymour had excel- 
lent reasons for refusing the nomination 
which the Saratoga Convention lately at- 
tempted to thrust upon him. He had al- 
ready made plain his lack of admiration for 
Mr. TiLDEX. His sense ot the decencies of 
public position had been shocked by the 
low arts employed by Mr. Tilden to influ- 
ence the choice at St. Louis, and he natu- 
rally resented in his quiet way the war 
which Mr. Tilden waged against promi- 
nent Democrats who seemed to stand in his 
way in the matter of the Governorship. 
We now learn that Mr. Seymour sympa- 
thizes as little with the spirit, purposes, 
and tactics of the Democratic Party as with 
the character and methods of its candidate 
for the Presidency. Upon this point his 
speech at Utica, on Friday eveuing is con- 
clusive. He delivered it in the capacity of 
Chairman of a Democratic meeting, and wo 
are told that it " aroused frequent hearty 
applause." The only conceivable explana- 
tion of the latter circumstance is that there 
was a plentiful sprinkling of strong-lunged 
Republicans in the audience, and that they 
appreciated, as well they might, the reiter- 
ated expressions of want of confidence in 
the Democratic Party which fell from tho 
lips of the distinguished speaker. 

From the beginning of the present cam- 
paign, Mr. Tilden's supporters have inter- 
preted everything in the light of partisan- 
ship. Every ill that afflicts the American 
people they have ascribed to Republican 
rule. Mr. Tilden conjured up his doleful 
vision ef the wolf, " gaunt and hungry," to 
exemplify the miseries brought upon the 
country by the Republicans. Messrs. 
Hewitt and Kklly vie with each other on 
all occasions in ascribing the hard times to 
a Republican Administration, and in pre- 
dicting immediate prosperity as one of tho 
consequences of a Democratic victory in No- 
vember. No less a personage than Mr. Bay- 
arc presumes upon the ignorance of bis audi- 

ecces by the free use of similar decla- 
rations. Debt and taxation, national, State, 
and municipal, business and industrial de- 
pression, waste in all its forms and waut 
with all its pangs, mast be attributed, 
according to the theory of the Senator from 
Delaware, to the blighting iullueuco of Re- 
publicans in power. As for tho remedy, the 
same partisan physician is content to copy 
the prescription of JoHX Kelly : " Itedtoro 
the Democrats to power, and all will at 
once be well." For this stuff Mr. SkYmour 
cherishes nothing but disgust. Ho does not 
exactly tell Messrs. Tiij>en and Hcwirr 






opie 
itius 

egi\ 



and Kelly and Bayard that they are 
mere demagos^ues, but that part of his 
address which deah with the condition of 
tho country suggests tlie inference that, in 
his opinion, they are blind loaders of the 
blind, who attribute to errors in Govern- 
ment what is traceable, in part, " to a low 
standard of morals iu all that relates to 
public affairs," and tor which Democrats 
are quite as responsible as Republicans. 
Partisanship, ho in.sists, truly enough, can- 
not explain or cure " moral disorders and 
material distress." On the question of in- 
debtedness he joins issue with Mr. Bay- 
ard. "I admit," he say.s, "that the 
same spirit of extravagance which marks" 
expenditures for which Democratic orators 
assail the Republican Party " has been 
shown by every State and municipal Gov- 
ernment, without regard to the party which 

'controlled them, since the close of the war." 
As a matter of fact he might have gone 
further. Ho might have reminded his hear- 
ers that the Governments, State and muni- 
cipal, which have most recklessly incurred 
debt, have been controlled by Democrats, 
and that the States which have applied 
themselves zealously to tho reduction of 
their indebtedness are States in which Re- 
publican control has been sustained and 
complete. He does not, indeed, conceal 
his contempt for the toadies who 
talk of reform as a process in- 
vented and patented by Mr. Tilden. 
Mr. Seymour pooh-poohs the idea that any 
man can by the exorcise of governmental 
authority correct the abuses and evils which 
wide-spread demoralization has fostered. 
"We cannot correct the evils," are his 
words ; "we cannot get back our people 
upon a higher plane of morals and haft 
by partisan abuse. Reform must begif 
with each man in his habits and those of 
his family." Imagine a Tammany Sachem 
preaching this doctrine to the roughs and 
ruffians of every degree who constitute the 
backbone of the Tilden party of reform iu 
the City of New-York! 

Warming with Lis theme, Mr. Srymour 
proceeded to pronounce the Democratic 
Party unfit to be tinsted with the absolute 
control of the Government. Of course he 
did not declare in so many words that Mr. 
TiLDBN ought not to be installed in the 
Presidency. But he did insist very emphat- 
ically that the interests of the country re- 
quire a Democratic President to be held in 
check by a Republican Senate. We quote 
Uterally from the report which wo find in 
the only live Democratic newspaper, the 
Sun:\ 

"Ou onr part we ask for the election of a Demo- 
cratic President and Eonae of Bepreaeatatives. 
This will give each party a voico in the cooduot of 
affair*. It will make no violent changes in our 
laws, for none can be pissed or repealed withoat 
tLeasseutof a Republican Sunate. It will lead to 
what the public interest in morals demands — a 
sharp diacaasion of all the details of public aff.kirs. 
It will lead to thusa investlgationa which will not 
only panisb, but that will prevent frauds. * * * 
"We must to arrange tho machinery ot the Govern- 
ment, under the workings of the two parties, that 
its action will tend to retrench and reform. That 
was the very design of the toundcFS of our Govern- 
ment when they made its difierenfbranchei repre- 
sentinz different coastitaenciea, and elected upon 
different principles. They sought to give the minor- 
ity a control in certain branches. One qaarter of 
the people elect a majority of the United States 
Senate. If yoa elect a Democratic President and 
House of Bepresentativoa, and leave a Bepublioan 
Senate, you make the very state of things tbat our 
fathers aimed at In onr Cdnstitulion." 

We will.not pause to argue with Mr. Sey- 
Mouit the soundness of the interpretation 
thus put upon certain clauses of the Con- 
stitution. It is a novel interpretation, and 
may be designed to meet an exigency which 
Mr. Seymour contemplates as a result of 
the election of Mr. Tilden. As a devoted 
Democrat, Mr. Seymour cannot " bolt " 
the St. Louis nomination. Nor can he with- 
hold his support from Congressional nomin- 
ations made in the name of his party in 
obedience to orders from the Gubernatorial 
Mansion. Therefore he proposes that Mr. 
Tilden, if he happen to become President, 
shall be made harmless as a sucking dove. 
Being entitled to veiy limited couli- 
dence, he must be hold in 
check by a Senate in which his 
political opponents preponderate. In this 
manner, the bargains entered into in his be- 
halt will come to naught. He will not be 
able to gather around him rebel advisers, 
or to intrust the country's interests abroad 
to the keeping of men who would have de- 
stroyed tho country if they could. Iu a 
word, Mr. Seymoi.r's advocacy of Mr. Til- 
den as a candidate for the Presidency is 
conditional upon his capacity for mischief 
being minimized by the continuance of a 
Republican majority in the Senate. Mr. 
Seymour's distrust extends to the Demo- 
cratic House of Representatives. He has 
no faith in its sagacity, integrity, or 
in its professions in regard to re- 
form. He contends that it cannot 
safely be trusted with more than 
a very limited measure of power. The 
country's safety, m his opinion, requires 
that a Democratic House, as well as a Demo- 
cratic President, shall be kept in order by a 
Itepublican Senate. For once, we cordially 
agree with Mr. Seymour. If there were no 
escape from a Democratic President and a 
Democratic House, their inherent badness 
would be a calamity which only wise, honest, 
and courageous Republican Senators could 
render endurable. 

One thought may possibly occur to unde- 
cided persons when they read Mr. Sky- 
mour's declaration of want of confidence 
in Mr. Tjldkn and Democratic Representa- 
tives. If they are unworthy of implicit 
trust, how can Mr. Seymour reconcile to 

his conscience even his qualified support of 
them? And if the superiority of tho Re- 
publicans is so marked that they only are 
fitted to act as tho balance-wheel of tlie 
Government, would it not be better to make 
the Government Republican altogether. 



INFLAT102i AD AESURDVM. 
The Wisconsin gentlemen who addressed 
a petition to Congress last Winter, praying 
tbat ten dollars a >veek in greenbacks might 

be paid out of tho public Treasury to every 

man and vroiuau iu the United States, 
showed tbat they had mastered the true- 
principles of tho inflatiou school of finance. 
If tho currency is to be inflated for tho pur- 
pose of relieving the necessities of the iui- 
pecuuious, they doubtless argued there 
should be a fair deal all aroiiud ; and wh:it 
could be fairer than that each person should 
receive tho safue weekly allovvauce ? The 
doctrine so often expressed in soft-money 
platforms that the currency should be dis- 
tributed ratably among tho several States, 
in urooortiou to population, hua been car- 



mmtm^ 



ried out by these petitioners to its logical 
result, and has been set forth in precise and 
tangible form. Their plan of paving the 
st-ipoiid through tho Post Oriice lia.9 tho 
merit of simplicity and economy, and was 
evidently designed to circumvent those 
grasping and unjust monopolies — the banks. 
A few years ago the inflationists were 
clamorous for free banking, in order that 
the West and South might have a fair 
share of the banking capital, which they 

complained had been monopolized by the 
money kings of the East. But when the 
limitations on tho bank circulation were re- 
moved, they tound to their astonishment 
that the East again seized tho lion's 
share of the increase, and that banks, in- 
stead of creating capital, required a pretty 
substantial foundation of capital before 
they could be started. The impecunious in- 
flationist, who had been shouting himself 
hoarse for more banks, found that the bank, 
when started, had an inconvenient habit of 
lequu-ing security for its loans, and that 
unless he could ofter some assurance of re- 
payment, a hank next door was of no more 
benefit to him than if it were on Wall 
street. The currency issued by the bank 

did not go into his pocket at all, but ob- 
stinately flowed aTvay to the money centres, 
leaving him no better off than before. The 
next device was a circulation issued exclu- 
sively by the Government. . This, although 
it seemed satistactory so far as circumvent- 
ing the banks went, still failed to provide a 
means of getting the currency into the wal- 
lets of those most in need of it. It re- 
mained for the petitioners of Wisconsin to 
solve tho problem, and the solution does 
credit alike to their intelligence and, their 
ingenuity. They have not only mastered 
the teachings of Landers and Kkllky, but 
they have made a logical application of 
those teachings from which their distin- 
guished instructors shrank. '' . 

In one particular, however, the petition 
lacks that comprehensiveness which dis- 
tinguishes it iu other respects. For some 
unaccountable reason the petitioners wish 
to limit the issue of greenbacks under their 
scheme to five thousand million dollars. 
Just here they show a distrust of their plan 
which mars its completeness. Why stop at 
five thousand millions t If an increase of 
greenbacks increases wealth, why not con- 
tinue the issue until every man becomes a 
Rothschild or au Astor ? JWhy limit the 
issue to each person to a piltry ten dollars 
a week, when, for an expense of a few cents 
more, a hundred or a thousand dollars might 
be printed? Why not ke^ the printing 
presses running day and ni]^t until, by the 
cheap device of unlimited greenbacks, every 
man's wildest desire is satisfied, and the 
primal curse of labor nullified ? 

A majority of the inflationists would 
probably shrink from carrying their 
doctrines to the length^ to which 
their Wisconsin brethren j have gone, 
but in truth tho demands of the 
petitioners are but a logical extension of 
the inflation scheme. ' The arguments of tho 
inflationists, when analyzed, [are found to 
rest ultimately on the notion that the 
wealth and capital of the icoantry may be 
increased by issues of inconvertible paper. 
Of course, the doctrine is rarely stated in 
this blunt form, but it may.be found lurk- 
ing at the bottom of most of;their reasoning. 
Inflation of the currency is demanded in the 
expectation that by some unexiilained sort 
of jugglery money will get Idto the pockets 
of the needy without the trqU|ble fef working 
for it. Reduced to this 8|ihple form, the 
fallacy of the inflation argumjent becomes so 
evident as scarcely to require serious refu- 
tation. It is only necessarys^o pcint to the 
fact that the wealth of ajj^untryat any 
time is a definite quantity, 'flamitpd strictly 
by the objects of value whieh it possesses. 
These remain the same whether much or lit- 
tle paper be in circulation. The larger the 
amount of paper, the greater the nominal 
prices of commodities will be, but the com- 
modities themselves,, which are the essen- 
tial things, and which alone constitute the 
wealth of the country, remain the same. 
If the currency were doubled in vol- 
ume, the apparent price of every- 
thing would be • : doubled, and the 
wealth of the coubtry, when computed 
in this depreciated currency, would be in- 
creased in like proportion. Bat no man 
would have any mor^ of the objects of de- 
sire, of the things whish minister to his 
wants, and if these be not increased, it is 
plain that there cj|(U be no increase of 
wealth. The effect |f such an iucr-mse of 
currency would be rib more substantial than 
if Congress should ienact that heuceforth 
fifty cents should cojEistitute a dollar. The 
■•wealth of the country and the price of every 
article would be tbckoned in twice the 
number of dollars, but each dollar would be 
worth only half as lOluch as before. After 
all, there is no escajuie from tho specie stand- 
ard. We may delujge the land with floods 
of irredeemable papier, and drive the last 
dollar of coined mofiiey beyond our borders, 
but when we wish to compute the real 
value of any articlp, or even ot our debased 
currency itself, wo yrill inevitablv measure 
it by what all human experience has proved 
to be the only safel and staple standard of 
value. I 



PROF. HUXLEY Ayn THE BIBLE. 

To many mindq. Prof. Huxlky's tone in 
regard to the Biblical account of the crea- 
tion, and his arguments against it, in his 
recent lectures, have seemed subversive of 
religious faith. We believe, on the other 
hand, to sound J3iblical scholars, even when 
thoroughly imbued with modern science, 
this narrative offers no difliculties, and, on 
the contrary, strengthens faith. A cosmog- 
ony canuot in the, nature of things be what 
Mr. Huxley called "testimonial evidence.?' 
Moses or whoever was the author of the 
first two chapters of Genesis, was not 
present at tho occiirronco of the events he 
describes. He merely gives broad pictures 
or visions of certain great changes in the 

present order of things. 

If our readers will compare any other cos- 
niocony of the Semitic tribes, or will take 
up those of the Aryan, tho Hindoo, or the 
Persian race, or those believed in by the 
hali'-civilized nations of this continent, he 
will see the immeasurable superiority of the 
Jewish account. Opposed to the notion of 
accident or chance among tho Greeks, or 

• that of the eternity of matter so common in 
tho Orient, or the superstitions of mauy gods 
and struggling spirits, tho Hebrew narra- 
tive gives us the sublime truth of the whole 
present order of ..things having sprnng 

1 frona ajx lutelliseuti and auoremd will. TUe 




date of the first creation it leaves behind in 
an immeasurable past. It only finds in the 
beginning chaos, and the first germ of the 
organic or inorganic world called forth by a 
Supremo Force. This certainly is in 
harmony with the very latest re- 
searches of science, and is at 
the basis of whatever may be called re- 
ligion in the world. So long as man be- 
lieves in an order of things which did not 
come by chance or accident, tiut whicli de- 
rived its forces from the original and intel- 
ligent Force, he is no longer a materialist, 
hut is bonnd by unseen ties to tho world in- 
visible. This grand truth the Hebrew rec- 
ord teaches above all others, and with a sim- 
plicity and dignity unsurpassed in the re- 
ligious traditions of any other race. The 
philosopher believing this has an anchor 
against all tides of skepticism. If the 

Bible had transmitted no other truth but 
this to mankind, it would deserve eternal 
reverence. 

The remaining visions or pictures in the 
narrative of Moses are obviously not in- 
tended to be translated literally. They are 
extremely dramatic and poetic in form, 
though of severe simplicity. Mr." Huxley 
sneers at the varions interpretations, 

and especially of the word " day." But it 
is in tho, nature of such poetic narratives 
or visions tbat they should be susceptible 
of broad differences of rendering. No 

scholar need he told that the word "day" 

changes in all languages according to the 
context. Certainly the interpretations of 
even such vague terms as poetic expressions 
are not half so varied as of what are sup- 
posed to be the definite facts in geology. 
Exegesis has quite as firm a foundation as 
reasoning from fossililerous strata. The 
" testimony of the rocks" changes under 
each interpreter even more than the testi- 
mony of Scripture. 

There is nothing in any reasonable inter- 
pretation of the first chapters of Genesis 
to prevent accepting the doctrine of evolu- 
tion, for the Divine Creator can as easily 
work through links of inheritance and va- 
riation as by direct and special acts of crea- 
tion. Creation, if it originated "three or 
four kingdoms of life," as Darwin expresses 
it, would be as truly creation as if every 
germ in each individual were specially 
made. The language of a poetic cosmogony 
must of hecessity be the language of ap- 
pearance. Human vocabulary has no 
terms or even powers of comprehension for 
the evolving of things from nothing for 
Creation. 

As to the sequence of creation or appear- 
ance of different orders of living things, it 
is doubtfnl if Mr. Huxley himself is thus 
far in a condition to affirm or deny, and 
certainly the interpretation of the' Hebrew 
record is equally doubtful with the con- 
clusions of geology. What Mr. Huxley 
called "great whales" may mean many 
other monsters of sea or land, and as he 
himself has fallen back ou '"the imperfec- 
tion of the geological record" to explain 
obvious gaps in the evidence, the Biblical 
scholar may do the same. When 
Mr. Huxley has explained tho exist- 
ence of the Eozoon iu the Laurentian, or 
of trilobites in ancient formations, or of 
other forms of life quite out of the range 
where, under evolution, they should have 
appeared, the Biblical scholar may explain 
tho Mosaic order of creation. Tho sequence, 
in broad, seems harmonious with moderu 
theories : First, matter without order ; then 
light, then aggregation into systems, then 
the lowest vegetable and animal life, then 
higher orders of life, and finally man. Still, 
the devout and consistent believer in the 
Scrii)tures will not look for or expect exact 

scientific accuracy in a narrative whose ob- 
vious purpose is to establish divine crea- 
tion as opposed to chance, or to the idea of 
opposing spirits, or to the belief in the eter- 
nity of matter. 

The " Miltonic interpretation "of the record 
was that of an age which knew little or 
nothing of modern science. Just as the 
views of scholars in regard to the chronol- 
ogy of the world have changed, or in re- 
gard to the antiquitY of the rocks, or the 
astronomy of tho universe, and iu like 
manner, the interpretation of the Bible, 
yet without affecting its spiritual author- 
ity, so the belief in the mode and sequence 
of creation may chauire, and yec the Bible 
narrative be tound consistent and its groat 
religious value undiminished. 



BISHOP POTIEIVS ADDRESS. 

The annual address of Bishop Potter at 
the Episcopal Diocesan Convention showed 
the same practical good sense as the re- 
cent remarks of his sou ou free pews. Ho 
deprecates expensive churches, except here 
and there a grand and imposing, church for 
the people like Westminster Abbey, and 
would have tho means of the parishes ap- 
plied to practical schemes of benevolence. 
He comments ou the fact that there are a 
gi-eat multitude of young men in this City 
who have no comfortable and agreeable 
place to visit in tho evening, living in 
tenement-houses or poor boarding places, 
and in consequence are led away to drink- 
ing and gambling resorts. Ho justly be- 
lieves this condition of things the cause of 
much crime, dissipation, and practical irre- 
ligion. The remedy suggested by the 
Bishop is practical and ^simple : that the 
churches should open free reading-rooms 
and places of innocent social resort in the 
various districts of the City, as a kind of 
competing influence with the drinking- 
collars. He notes that there are fifty giu- 

shops to every half a mile square, and sug- 
gests that there might be at least one free 
reading-room for the same space. 

Very few ot our readers in comfortable 
circumstances can have an idea of the difii- 
culty with a young mau of character, living 

in a tenoment-houso or cheap lodgings, iu 
spending a Sanday, especially iu Winter, 
properly. Mis small room is cold and disa- 
greeable; ho has attended some free mission 

service as often as is suitable ; he has no 

,acquaintauces who expect visits on that 
day, and ho is absolutely driven to tho 
street. In wandering about the poorer 
quarters, what wonder that the warm, 
cheerful drinking saloons tempt him in and 
soon furnish his society ? Still worse is it 
with the yoir.i:; mau who has not been 
trained iu good habits, and is only too roady 
for bad resorts. For him, tho temptations 
are nearly irresistible toward the places ot 
vice and indulgence. The Sunday iu New- 
York is juolific with sources of ruiu aud do- 
basement lor young men. 

One of the blessings of the revival exer- 
cises uuder Medsra. Moodv and Sakkey. 



last Winter, was that they attracted in on 
Sundays, that large floating class of young 
men who know not whore to spend the 
day. But the temptation is not confined to 
the Sundays. Every evening, after a hard 
day's work, the young man seeks naturally 
some place of social resort or some haunt - 
where he can read the papers or hear oi 
public affairs. In most wards, of the City^ 

the only possible resort ot this kind is the 
dnnking-saloon. Various private associa- 
tions have attempted to remedy this evil in 
the mode suggested by Bishop Pottkr. In 

the First Ward, among the sailors and 
yonng men, the Lord Free Reading-room 
has been opened by the benevolent mer- 
chants iu that quarter. - In the eastern 
German quarter, the Missionary Society 
have furnished a few such rooms, and the 
Children's Aid Society have opened others. 

All these have been successful. Still they 
are only few in number and limited in iu- 
fluence. What is needed is some such move- 
ment as the Bishop has practically sketched. 
Every church, in whatever denomination, 
should cousidcwr it as much a part of 
its duty to have a free reading-room for the 
poor as handsome pews for the rich. The 
expense need bs but. trifling — the good 
worked out will be incalculable. Each 
church will then become a centre of reform- 
ing influences among the lowest classes. 
Protestantism ; will fall behind* its great 
rival in influence over the masses unless 

some efforts of this kind be inaugurated. 
Rich religious " club-hou3«8 " are not what 
is most needed now, but labor and ingeni- 
ous effort among the poorest classes. We 
hope for the time whea each wealthy 
and powerful Protestant church will 
be known, not for its costly archi- 
tecture and expensive decoration and 
luxuiious accommodations, but for all 
kinds of judicious enterprises for the 
good of the masses. Then a church like 
Dr. Hall's or Trinity will be best known 
by its industrial schools, its missions, its 
free reading-rooms, and its model lodging- 
houses. We doubt If a parish could accom- 
plish more for the welfare of the City than 
by demonstrating to landlords that a cheer- 
ful, healthful tenement-house, under good 
moral supervision, attached • to a' place of 
worship, was as retnunerative as. the pres- 
ent poisonous and immoral structures. 
Some of the old parish churches m the "City " 
of London are proving this â– i|jfry truth, and 
acquiring a great influence over me masses. 
Our Protestant sects must awake to the 
new duties laid noon them by the condi- 
tions of large cities, or their hold over the 
poor and ignorant aud tempted will begone. 

SCENERY AisD HABIT. 

We heard it recently baid that lakes were 
inane, and the likibg for them pueriU. The 
remark was frank, but not iu the least pro- 
fane. Au expression of an opiniju with re- 
gard to a particular sort of scenery, is merely 
the confession of one's own experience. 
The man who offers his judgment upon the 
lakes, or tha valleys and mountains, does 
not settle the business so far' as they are 
concerned. The mountains were there be- 
fore he came, and will remain after he is 
gone. He merely defines the impression 
they make upon hlin. Ther^ can be no 
sacrilege in telling the truth: with regard 
to such impressions, and there can t>e no 
advantage in withholding the trulh or in 
deceiving ourselves with !ra?ard to it. 
WhenMme. DkStael says th^ljshe likes no 
kind of scenery, we may dai^bt if she ever 
gave herself an opportunity|t6 admire na- 
ture, but we must respect her tiruthfulness. ' 
Had she spoken otherwise, sttaj would have 
l>Ben just as wanting in 8aj|<^ptibility to- 

this source of pleasure as befdrt, and would 
have lost her iudapendeac^; and told a fib 
into the bargain. - "^ 

It is certainly true that, while scarcely 
any mind is absolutely blank to imprassioas 
from the external world, lovers of nature 
prefer different and various scenes, i Oue 
likes mountains — auothpr the ssa; one likes 
a harvest country — a country of corn, rye, 
and clover ; another likes a region of grass 
and woodland. Perha,ps it ought not to be 
so. Tue mind should! be open to any kind 
of natural beauty. Ai^d no doubt most 
minds are open, to {^degree, to any kind 
of natural beauty. Bat some kinds of 
scenery will delight us more than others. 
The delight which is: {wanting by the sea- 
shore will be present atU'>ng the mountains. 
Sunset over a harvestj country will charm 
and soften; while suiisat in some stonv, 
unfruitful region willi j only surprise. Wo 
are sure that use has| a great deal to do 
with this. To the quei^iion, " What scenery 
do men most admiral' it mi^hfc be an 
swered, "That which |they admired in their 
youth." A boy reared j by tho side of Gras- 
mf re or Loch Lomond would wonder that a 
lake should be called jjiaae, and the liking 
for it puerile. Wibli regard to lakes, 
indeed, the taste \ lip not solely one 
of education. There isfi charm in the lake * 
of Wales and Scotland' tyhich ours have not. 
A coutrast is offered ||» the mind between 
those hoary monntaib^'and the handful of 
sweet waters which; It^iey hold apart froai 
the surrounding ssaJiJ In pronouncing one 
of his own lakes au iiif nity and a puerility, 
the American 8impl^|(faisant, however, that 
he had never received from it aa impression 
such as he had received from other natural 
objects. " It is a preitity accident," ha said, 
" by which people ij*ay enjoy hill and in- 
land air, and at the jSama time have some- 
thing to paddle on; By all means let us 
have the lake. How greatly Would our 
opportunities for amusing ourselves be cur- 
tailed if we did not have oue. We bathe in 
it; we fish iu it, and; in the marsh below 
there is a snipe or two which we may no w 
and then have a shot it. W« may row and 
sail upon it. In shortj the lake, though an 
accident, and I insist^ au anomaly, is a for- 
tunate oue. Moreover, it is pretty. These 
clear cool moorings, hdw the myriad ripples 
of its pure basin glitter at the foot of tho 
green wooded hills.! But, nevertheless, it 
gives ine no profound impressions, such as 
I gftt from ariver,which is a natural feature 
of the scenery of this mountain couutry." 
This critic meant that while ha had been 
strongly affected and delighted by certain 
landscapes, the sight of a lake had been 
never more than plejising to him. The 
reader wliosc boyhood V*^ ^®°^ passed upon 
the banks of the smaller lak^s of Western 
Ncv.-York will, no doiibt, think differently. 

We say that it is use! and habit which .ire 
to explain the preferehccs of men for espe- 
cial kinds of scenery, fit is not the excep- 
tional aud extraordiaary in nature which 
afficts us : it is rathjW that which wa Hava 



seen oftend||t and know bast Wlij U It 
that oar f«^ at sonset turn this evening t* 
the saW road we traversed yesterd.iyf * ! 
W^y isyft that the same line of hUls. wh«tt 
once found the point of view which 
Iffires them harmony, continues day after 
day Jo attract and hold us t Certain it is 
that custom is a far greater element bf do- 
light in scenery than novelty. We love tha 
•ernes among which we were born, aud 
again we love the seenes which first opened 
to us most strongly the power of nature. 
It is possibly true that such liking* may b« 
transmitted in thehlood, aud be receivel by 
the di^^^^^sdants of sires whose homas wert 
by tfaf «ea or on the mountains. There are 
in this country, within a comparatively 
small space, very dissimilar kinds of scmsry. 
There are changes from North to South, and 
from East to West. These variations are 
made more distinct by the sublime ricijM- 
tudes of our climate. la New-EagUnd, 
from the very broken character of ths 
country, we have a region full of nooks, 
each with a brook, and each about big 
enough to contain and shut Id from 
the world a college tutor and his 
sweetheart. The mountains of Vermont 
and New-Hampshire have the hoary, 

aged aspect of the North. The slop-is 
of the Alleghany as they appear iu Virginia 
and Pennsylvania have the softer, deeper 
verdure which belongs to a clinaite mors 
mild and a soil more liberal. Tb) oecnpv 
tions to which the nature of the various 
regions compel the indastry of men of 
themselves modify the landscao^ Parts of 
New-England and many regions of the 
other States are grazing rather ^lao farming 
regions. The green and rocky earth, with 
orchards upou the hillside<<, and the highest 
eminences corered with the brush and tha 
forest, can hardly show a single field of 
grain. From such a country hbw graat 
the change to ' a landscao© like the 
Cove Valley of Penusylvani* There, 
in a great plain twelve mile? across 
and surrounded by a circle of blue moin- 
tains, one -vast harvest-fiald waves in tlM 
midday sun. The man whose youth has 
been passed in the Valley of the Mi«si%sippi 
will rememijer with the most wonder tho 
woodlands of bis native country. Th«y 
are unlike any which are seen in the E ist, 
because of the absence of utderbnn^ 
Those glades, sown not too thickly with the 
trunks of mighty trees, the bine (^ass. nn- 
choked except by the May-apple anl the 
mushroom, recall that £abled time when 
the world was happy and still knew of god3 
and goddesses. The depths of the blue 
srass would have presented indeed a ten* 
der carpet to the foot of Diana. 

We are glad to see that poets who were 
Hoosier and Buckeye boys twenty years 
ago have not forgotten the pawpaw and the 
May-apple. In our widely-various climates 
and descriptions ot scenery we have, at 
least, one inevitable source of direrntr. 
We, who are moving so plainly toT^rd the 
vast homogeneous democracy of the fntoxe, 
should value this.

TMi; WAY AWARDS iVERE MADE. 



THE ORIGINAL /.WARD OF MEDALS IN THE 
ART DHPARTMEXI — A.ND UOW AN IN- 
CKE.\SE WAS MAXCEUVKKD— THE SUP- 

PLKSIKKIAL LIST. 
To the Editcn- of the Sew- York Timesr 

Cue of your correspondents at Philadelphia 
has iodicated i-ometbini: of thedissatislaction which 
is felt over tbo svsitm ot awards for snperiority iu 
different department a. Will you permit one who is 
iu some measure behind the soenes, and wh^) can 
vouch for the greater part of his sfatements from 
persooat knowleafre, to toll through tbo medium of 
your great paoer the true inwardness of some of the 
awards iu the Art Department. The awards were 
niadu by- th:> juages of all the nations early in the 
Ceutenni.il season. S >nje of the foreijjn ju Iges 
complainea at that time that they were rather hur- 
ried by the Euy:lish and American judges, who 
preyed lhiu2s forward somewhat more rapidly 
tnau, BS ihey thonabt, clue rojard to jastico de- 
manded. But, upon tbe whole, the result, tlioogh 
more fhvorable to oije or two countries than it 
wou.d have been had more time been given, was in 
the main Ju!>t. That award was as follows :

This was the re^u^t of the labors of the eutfrebody 
ot Jud es. That, in consequence ot the want oi 
graduation in tne Cjnteuniai system of awards, the 
thin^ was aa absolute tares was manifest enough. 
This was specially deroonstrated In the bieh art 
grouD. Here on. y eicht medals wpre given, of which 
Francs toi.k one with thii picture by George Becuer, 
Eusland took twn w.tn pictures oy Frederick Leieh- 
lon and Altua Tadema; Austria took one with Hans 
Makai't's magniacent picture of " Catherine Cor- 
nalt's Triumph," and Spain took tour. Naturally, 
from the true point of view, the great success of tbe 
art dioplay fell to the Spanish lot, but in conse- 
qaence »f tho bnngl'Ug system it is impossibli- 

to discriminate, and number* count instead 

of values. In fact puppies became as v.iln- 
able as young lions ia snite of M op. 
Belgium and the XetberUnds were greatly 
irritated at' the result,, and ibt) B.dgian jndse de- 
parted occlaring that ho would not accdpt the 
noedaU. Oilier jud-jes also returned home, tho E-iij- 
lish. French, Swedish, and m..ny others. So soouer 
ba 1 a majoiitv ot tbe judgiag body left iu the full 
belief ihatali bal beeu defi.jitelv settled, when two 
of tbe United S.ates jud;;es and the Nether ands 
juflge laid piaus for a new series of uw.irds to suu- 
pleuient the fi st. Tao Geriuan judge, who re- 
mained, Was asked to take a baud, and auo the 
Spanish judge. Count Donadio. Both refused with 
much luuizuatiou. The three inentioued then weuf 
througb'tbe farce of another examination and sent 
iu to the Chief ot the Bar- au of Awari a new list oi 
names for m*^aIl.zatiou wuica was approved. Tbe 
new deal was as follows :

not comment apiu them, for they speak for tbem-

sliun, and the preseut one, wbi^h bas been pub-

Fust Mail train was in operation, and also as to 
tbe present arrungemeuts. The railway managers 
were of the oiiaion that tbo compensation for the 
cari'iage of mails now transported in pooches, 
without any clerk or asem, was at a v«ry ranch 
higher ratio ihau any other a^rricc, and was pro- 
porriiinately too bi;.'h ; that what was needed was a 
more thorough service by postiil cars tbr ughout 
the States ot Ohio and EentucUy, ai that would ac- 
commodate the local mail, which was of much 
gi-eater imp »rtanco than the throneh mail. There

" Life" 13 now represented with all desirable

sav, for some weeks to come. 

Mr. Whitney and Mme. Schiller are the 
soloists in Mr. Tnoman' first concert of the two

A " sacred concert " will be given by Mr.

The career of "The Mighty Dollar" at 
Wallace's Theatre cime to an end last evening. 
Monilav the boose will be closed, and Tuesd.iy tha 
regular season will be entered opon. During the 
Winter the mana?em mt will, as usual, occupy it- 
self with tbe production of dramatic w.irks appeal- 
ing to the taste of the most refijed class ot plav- 
eoers. Sensational and speoracular pieces will 
therefore be shunned, and pieces of positive artistic 
worth made known. The tamiliar programme, 
then, will be adherad to. On Tuesday Mr. Bouci- 
cauU's "Forbidden Emit," a comedy which is un- 
derstood to be near of km to tho now inevitable 
"ProtSs Veauradieus'," will bo acted. Messrs. Moa- 
taciue and Beckett, and Misses Dyas aad Germon, 
with Mme. Pontsi, bjing included in the distrihn- 
lion ot r61es. A revival of the "The Shaughrauu" 
will be effected later on. 

The last performance of "The Two Men of 

Sandy Bar" occurred at tho XJuioa Square Tueatre 
yesterday evening. luspiteof the novel aad iuge- 
uijtis advertising methods intended to commend 
the drama to public notice, its impressiou has 
Oeen that of a mediocre and ill-sh.toen work. The 
even's of the regular season, which is to set in to- 
morrow, will eilace, we trust, tht recollection ol this 
unfortunate venture, and of its still more unfortu- 
nate accessory incldens. The season will bd in- 
auuuraten by the renroductiou of " The Two 
Orphans." Messrs. Thome and Par.-;elle, Mrs. 
Wilkins, ami Mi se.^ CUixlon, Moraut, aa i Vciiiun 
are to sustain their original id.es in the revival, but

M. le Commandeur Cazeneuve, a French 
prestidigitateur of ereat reput^e, nnvo an entertain 
meat at Cf ijkciiug Eall, last evening. Tne fact 
that M. Cazsneuve is not familiar witn the Eaghah 
language, detracts somewhat Irom the interest of 
his performance, but as most; of his feats address 
themselves parnculurly to the eye. their effect is 
not lost. His mastery of sleight; of hand is quite 
marvelous, and the closest scnitiny of hisiuanipula- 
tionof the cards isfruitlossso far as a detection of his 
movemoutfl is concerne.l. A uumbor of card tricks, 
last night, ofi'ered the stroncest proof of his clever- 
ness in this departmeut of his art, atid. later on, 
some wonder-working with mechanical contrivances 
all'orded even livelier graiifiuation. Among the most 
astonishing incidents of the eveuin,; were M. C.ize- 
neuve's feats of memory. He glances at a printed 
page and forthwith lecites its contents verbatim. 
He distributes a pack of cards, a dozf n dice, and a 
score of numbers among th) audience, and at once 
assigns to each spectator his card, his die, or his 
number. A large audience was gathered at-Chick- 
ering Hall, last eveninc. and the aclilevonients of 
tbe 2'reatidigitateur were applauded to the echo. M. 
Cazeueave, we are glad to see, gives four entertain. 
men s this week ; they will bo the more attractive 
inasmuch aa he bas now had an opportaulty of 
t«8 i g the likes and dislikes of an American

F,8T AWARD AT THE CENTEJSNIAl KXHI 
BlUOX. ' 

Philadelphia, Sept; 27, 1876.— In no depart- 
ment oitha Eihibitiou has thj competition oeen 
greater than among thi j)iatio makers, and while 
the contest soon narrowed down to but few housos, 
it seems undisputed that Weber has distanced all 
comnetition and must bei tii-day recoirmzoJ as the 
piano-maker par excel e|ttC3 of the world, and the 
iuu)iical jury ha^ but s'arhped the seal of tho Amer- 
ican Centennial Exhibijtliin upon the generally 
awardoa veraiot ot every ;VjC:iIist and nuisician by 
the award which gives tjie medal to A. Wobor, of 
New-York, for " symp.UiietK, pure, aud rica tone, 
couihined with greatest power, a< sh.iwu in tho 
three stylos, >Jr.ia I. Sqaiiro, a:id IJ.iri^br, Pianos 
whii^h show int-lligenco and solidity in thmr coii- 
ttrucfton, a pliant ana' eas.v touch which at the 
same timo answers pronjiptly to its req liremants, 
together with excedeucs 'Of w.irktn vn jh.;i." 

While the Judges aco^tjdit to Weber's comoeii- 
tors "larger volume, iiUrity, and duration of 
tones" — mere meciiatiici:il, qualities — to Weber 
alone are accrelitod the highest possible musical 
qualities : i ! 

Sympathetic, pore, and rich tone, wish greatest 
power. 

It Is the. svmpathstic hnl rich qnatity of tone 
which (has mAde tne WeH^er piano the favorite of 
every isinger ai well as; the pablic. It is these 
special qualities which, oooibined with purity and 
greatest now r, iu a voice make thi greatest singer, 
and which in an ins rumi^ut make it the peer of its 
compolitors. Puiitv, po^jver, and diiratiou aro but 
cold exponents of mechfuiicil feicollence. Add to 
these qualities, as the judges S'ly are contained in 
the Weber; sympathy and richness of tone, and yoil 
bnatlie in:o it warmth and lil'e, and you hava the 
ne plus ultra ot a piano. ' 

This Weber has done at the Centennial, and 
when the judjros commend his instruments also for 
their solidity ot constrpctiou and exoalleuco of 
workmanship, they tell !tho public that the Weoer 
piano is the best in the world. — Vlvcning Post.
