t Xhomortuary report for the weekend

The results of the investigation into the
crookedness in the Comptroller’s otlice, in

Comptroller Campbell contemplates a trip

The Boston Herald charges that Butler
spied upon a State official by means of
two auger holes bored in the wall of his

The New' York Times has made the dis
covery that it is a mistake ol partisans to
suppose that their own party contains all

Times man must have been perusing the
returns of the last election when he thus
delivered himself.
The Albany Journal remarks that Ar
thur is the first Republican President of
whom it could be said that he governed a
united republic. This is owing to the
fact that his immediate predecessors
never manifested any disposition to gov
ern a united republic. They had an eye
single tor the grand old party.

marksman the merchant would have gone
scot free.
But seven Northern States hold elections
next fall. These are Massachusetts, New
York. New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Ohio,
lowa and Minnesota. All of these sup
ported Garfield save New Jersey. The
Republicans must carry all or most of
them to be in safe trim for ’B4, while the
Democrats would be content with New
York and New Jersey.
Will not the President soon have to be
thinking about selecting a new Secretary
of the Navy? It looks very much that
way. What will become of John Roache’s
contracts if his friend Chandler quits the
Navy Department? Perhaps Roache
could influence the President to make
Robeson Secretary. Robeson has some
acquaintance with naval matters—partic
ularly with monitors.
Louisville is grasping. She declares
her purpose, through the Courier-Journal,
to have one or both of the National Con
ventions, simply because she has a build
ing big enough to hold both conventions.
Chicago is bidding for the Democratic
Convention and Indianapolis for the Re
publican Convention. Other cities will put
in bids when the time for bidding arrives.
Louisville will not have everything her
own way in the matter of the conventions,
notwithstanding her big building.
A young colored man named Banks, a
porter in the St. Andre’s Hotel, New
York, thinks his blood is worth ten cents
a drop. About eight ounces of his blood
was transferred into the veins of a Swede
named Okerberg, who was suffering from
gas poisoning. The Swede’s life was
saved, and now Banks sues him for “goods
sold and delivered." Banks values his
blood high. Plenty of the best “blue"
blood could be obtained for the price Banks
ilemands.
Senators Butler and Don Cameron are
great friends. Cameron is in Europe for
his health, where he expects to remain for
two years. -While he is away Butler has
agreed not to vote on any question that
Cameron would vote differently on. In
other words, Butler and Cameron are
paired. This pairing business is carried
to an unreasonable extent. Senators are
absent from their places in the Senate,
weeks and months at a time, attending to
private matters. The evils growing out
of the pairing system will become so
flagrant eventually that the Senate, in
self-defense, will be forced to inaugurate
a reform.
Our foreign born citizens furnish a
pretty fair share of public men who reach
high positions. At least two distinguished
United States Senators are of foreign
birth, and regret they are not natives be
cause thqy can never hope to reach the
Presidency. The Republican candidate for
Treasurer in Pennsylvania, nominated a
day or two ago, was born in Eng- i
gland in 1832. He learned the
trade of finisher of small
arms in Woolwich arsenal, served as an
armorer in the Crimean war, and came to
this country in 1858. Pluck, energy and
brains are all that are necessary to give a
man position and wealth in this country.
A citizen of foreign birth stands just as
"'ood a chance of getting ahead in the
world as a citizen to the manor bom.
Phases of the Speakership Discus
sion.
A doubt whether Mr. Randall can get
the entire vote ot his party for Speaker,
even if he is the caucus nominee, is ex
pressed. Ninety-seven votes will give
him the caucus nomination, but it will
require in a full House one hundred and
sixty-three votes to elect him. It is as
serted that a very respectable number of
Democrats, perhaps enough to leave him
without the necessary majority, will re- |
fuse to vote for him under any circumstan
ces. Those hostile to him, while they may
have great respect for him personally, say
that his election would place the party in
a false light before the country with re
spect to the tariff. The tariff" is certain
to be a leading issue in the next national
contest, and the Democrats cannot afford
to elect a man Speaker who will make up
the great committees of the House and
generally shape legislation as it the tariff
question w'ere settled for years to come.
Admitting that Mr. Randall will receive
the caucus nomination, and supposing
that enough of his party triends will de
sert him to defeat his election, will
the Republicans come to Mr. Randall’s
rescue? This question is being quite ex
tensively discussed, particularly by Re
publican papers. It is certain that the
Republicans feel very kindly towards Mr.
Randall. They would rather see him
elected than any other Democrat. He
stands pretty close to them on the tariff,
and could be depended upon not to permit
the tariff question to be reopened as long
as he occupied the Speaker's chair. They
cannot elect one of their own number,
and it is only natural that they should
prefer a man in harmony with them on
the great question of the day. Having
received the caucus nomination, Mr.
Randall could very well receive
help from Republican allies. He
would run no risk of being charged
with having deserted his party. But how
would it be if he could not get the caucus
nomination,but could get the Speakership
through Republican votes? This phase
of the situation is now attracting atten
tion. The Republicans and Independents
have one hundred and thirty-three votes.
Thirty more is a majority. If Mr. Ran
dall could get the Republican and Inde
pendent vote, and could secure the sup
port of thirty Democrats would he accept
the position? We think not, because by
such acceptance he would sepa
rate himself from his party. With
all his high tariff notions, Mr. Randall is
not ready to desert the party in whose
ranks he has served so long and won such
distinction. If he is elected Speaker, it
will be as the candidate of his party. He
is strong, comparatively young, and very
ambitious. The Presidency is a prize he
hopes to win, and he is not so foolish as
to destroy his chance of winning it by
abandoning his life-long political friends
for a position he has already occupied.
Republicans may tempt him, but they
will tempt him in vain. Besides, it is far
from probable that Mr. Randall could get
thirty Democratic votes if he were solidly
supported by the Republicans. Only
about half that number followed him in
voting for tile tariff bill last winter.
It is hardly probable that protection has
made any converts among the Democratic
Representatives since that time. We
think the talk of making Mr. Randall
Speaker with Republican votes is sensa
tional rather than serious.
Indiana and Illinois appear to have
absorbed about all the Presidential tim
ber. Indiana has three Democratic can
didates—McDonald, Hendricks and Voor
hees and two Republican candidates—
Harrison and Gresham. It is difficult
to say exactly how many candi
dates Illinois has. On the Republi
can side Senator Logan, Secretary Lin
coln and ex-Senator David Davis may be
mentioned, while on the Democratic side
the names of ex-Governor Palmer, Con
gressman Morrison, Carter Harrison who
kicked up such a row 7 at the Iroquois club
dinner, and Congressman Springer may
be mentioned. Harrison and Springerare
not heavy weights, but they are in the
ring and regard themselves as possibili
ties. It is time other States were
bringing their favorite sons to the front.
Last spring the press gave the army a
pretty thorough turning over because of
the scandals growing out of the poker
playing practice among the officers. Now
the navy 7 is getting it from all sides.
Drunkenness appears to be the besetting
sin of the naval officers. They are ex
tremely7 bitter in their feelings towards
the Secretary of the Navy for giving Ad
miral Crosby’s report to the press. This
report tells some sad stories. The Secre
tarie’s purpose was, probably, to shame
the officers into reforming their habits.
They don't thank him, however, for call
ing in the public to assist in washing the
dirty linen of the navy.
The first applicants for office under the
civil service law express themselves
highly 7 gratified with the questions sub
mitted them by the civil service examin
ers. They 7 were such questions as almost
any school child could answer. The diffi
cult job that these applicants have to per
form is to get an office after passing an exj
am-nation. The chances are that a dozen
of them won’t get places in a year, unless
the cholera strikes Washington and car
ries off" a lot of the present incumbents.
Every place was filled before the civil
service law went into effect.
John Bright is as cool as he is clever.
A few nights ago, while addressing an
English audience, he had occasion to re
mark: “Job has said, ‘Man is born unto
trouble as the sparks fly upward,’ ” but
that upon the whole he “did not agree
with Job.” Whereupon one of the audi
ence of 4,000 arose, and objecting to hear
Job spoken of so, shouted: “Three cheers
for Job.” The three cheers were given
with an enthusiasm which might have
discomfited a less ready 7 man than John
Bright.
The French Republicans Yesterday com

great revolution that shook Europe to its
foundations. The France of to-day com

Robespierre, or even of the grand Napo
i leon, exhibits a wonderful progress, but
i the French have need to bear in mind, de
spite the advances they have made, that
eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.
miseries are increased by 7 the
poor returns of her fisheries. There are
19,800 men and boys employed in gather
ing the piscatory riches of the deep, and
their annual catch is only 25,348 tons. In
Scotland there are 48,100 fishermen, who
catch 216,818 tons of fish every year.
Each Scotch fisherman, therefore, catches
on an average 4’4 tons per annum, while
the Irishman only catches D-g tons.
If M. Fontaine knows whereof he
speaks De Lesseps is indifferent as to
whether England backs him or not in his
scheme which proposes a second Suez
canal. He is resolved to push it, and
inasmuch as England is so largely inter

the people of Birmingham against the
government's support of De Lesseps ia
certainly injudicious.

What is the Truth About Tilden?
It would lie interesting to know the
truth about Mr. Tilden. Does he want
the “old ticket” nominated or not? Is he a
hale and hearty old man, or is he a physical
wreck, with one foot in the grave? These
are questions which the country would
like to have answered. A few weeks ago
Mr. Watterson visited Mr. Tilden at his
country seat on the Hudson, Grey
stone,and immediately afterwards stattled
the country with the statement that Mr.
Tilden was in the enjoyment of such vig
orous health that he tired his visitor out
traveling about his farm and racing up
and down the stairs and through the rooms
of his great mansion. Mr. Watterson was
emphatic in his assertion, however, that
Mr. Tilden was out of politics forever,
and under no circumstances would accept
a nomination for the Presidency. A week
or so later a w 7 ell known Southern Senator
told a different tale. In coming from West
Point to New York he met Mr. Tilden
on the cars. He reported that Mr. Tilden
was a decrepit old man, and so utterly
helpless that he had to be carried to his
seat in the cars by a couple of attendants.
Friday’s New 7 York Times contains an in
terview of two columns with an alleged
close friend of Mr. Tilden, who claims to
be authorized to speak for him. In this
interview it is stated that Mr. Tilden is
restored to almost vigorous health, and
that, while he is not a candidate for the
Presidency, he thinks the “old ticket”
ought to be nominated. It is
further stated that Mr. Tilden
will accept the nomination if
offered to him, and that his friends are
working with bis consent to secure it for
him. Where is the truth to be found? in
Mr. Watterson’s statement, in the report
of the Southern Senator, or in the New 7
York Times interview? The reports are
so conflicting that the new spapers ought
to appoint a commission to get at the facts.
If there is a movement on foot to nomi
nate the “old ticket” with Mr. Tilden’s
consent, the calculations of the politicians
will bp very materially 7 interfered with.
If there is no such movement, some one
near enough to Mr. Tilden to command
the confidence of the public, ought to say
so in terms so plain that there can be no
mistake about his meaning. Mr. Tilden
is becoming a disturbing element of such
proportions as to create uneasiness among
the party leaders in various sections of
the country. There has been enough
mystery. It is time the truth were known.

Republican Convention of Wednesday

a great opportunity. What will they do
with it? They cannot take refuge in the
usual party clap-trap, as is already pre
dicted of them, in the presence of such a

and the true interests of the country as is
made in this Republican platform.
A Hint to the Sluggards.
Wew York Sun.
Here, then, in the South and in the
Territories, is a fine field for Republican
aspirants to cultivate. Has brother
Blaine lost his interest in the material
prosperity of the Southern States? Has
Honest John Sherman forgotten his hand
ful of friends across Mason’s and Dixon’s
line? The administration seems to be
awake; and it is highly probable that Mr.
Chandler’s anxious efforts for the reor
ganization of the Republican party in the
South are directed quite as much with a
view 7 to the vote in the convention a year
hence as to the vote on election day six
teen months hence.
Protection’s Last Ditch.
-Vew York Times (Rep.).
It is true that the National Government
once had a surplus of revenue which was
distributed among the States, but nobody
has ever before advocated the raising of
revenue for this purpose. If it is to be
done at all there is no definite limit to be
put to the process. It might logically be
carried to the extent of supporting "the
State government at the expense of the
I nation, the revenue for the purpose being
; raised by protective duties, which, ac
| cording to the Pennsylvania theory,
' would only have the effect of fostering in
: dustry and making the country richer.
If this would be unconstitutional, then
■ the raising of any revenue by national
[ taxation tor the benefit of State govern
i ments would be unconstitutional. To
; this extreme of absurdity are the Penn
; sylvania protectionists carried by their
| desperate shift for maintaining high
, duties. The rest of the platform is not
1 sufficiently strong to carry the rank
absurdity ot its first two resolutions.
Death of Hon. Mark Alexander.
Raleigh News and Observer.
Died, on the 6th of July, 1883, at the
residence of his son-in-law, Norfleet Smith,
Esq., of Scotland Neck, N. C., Hon. Mark
Alexander, in the ninety-second year of
I his age. He was born in Mecklenburg
! county, Virginia, on the 7th of February,
1792, where he lived until a few years
! past, honored and respected by a large
circle of friends. He married a daughter
of Governor Turner, of North Carolina,
who, with five children, survives him.
i Mr. Alexander was elected to the Legis
lature of Virginia in the year 1815,
and to the Congress of the
United States from 1819 to 1833. He was
j also a member of the Virginia Convention
in 1829 and 1830. He is believed to have
been the oldest ex-member ot Congress
at his death. He was a colaborer With
and friend of Randolph, Macon, Madison,
Clay and others, whose memories he cher
ished ever and held in reverence from the
associations • f the past. As a man he
i was pre-eminently just and of exemplary
conduct: as a Christian he was an hum

which the men w 7 ere partners upward of
two score years ago. Mr. Vreeland
reached over the gunwale of the boat and
caught him by the collar, intending to lift
him upon the deck, but, so goes the story,
he underestimated his strength, and
whisked the Commodore from the water
with such a force, that, although only one
arm was used the latter went clear over
the craft and into the water on the
other side. Many other stories are told of
Mr. Vreeland’s great physical prowess.

some curious anomalies in Great Britain.
While favored vicars hold pluralities of
parishes and draw thousands of pounds
per annum from districts they have never
seen, we find the Bishop of Carlisle an
nouncing that he has a vacant living at
his disposal, viz., the incumbency at
Wastdale Head, in Cumberland. Thein
come is but £BO, but the population is
only fifty. The Bishop says that he will
be truly grateful to any oiie who w’ill re
commend him to a clergyman suitable for
the post, and he holds out the prospect of
the speedy erection of a suitable parson
age. There is another living going a beg
ging in Oxfordshire, stipend £IOO and a
vicarage. But there are two serious
drawbacks. The sum of £l3O has to be
paid for dilapidations, and of the popula
tion of 300 hardly one-eighth attend
church, the remainder “falling a prey to
many kinds of dissent.”
One of the Stock Stories About Webster.
Ben Perley Poore's Recollections
Daniel Webster’s financiering is the
subject of many anecdotes at Washington,
and one of them thus describes how he
one day assisted his friend Rufus Choate.
Choate needed SSOO, and he applied to
Mr. Webster. “Five hundred dollars!”
says Mr. Webster. “No, I haven't the
amount, but I will get it for you, Choate.”
The latter was glad to hear ft, and would
wait. “Draw your note,” said Webster;
“I'll sign it and bring you the money.
While you are about it make the note for
a thousand: a thousand is as easy to get
as five hundred.” Mr. Choate said that
five hundred, was all he needed. “I'll
take the other five hundred,'’ said Webster.
The note was drawn and Mr. Webster,
taking his cane, went into the ave
nue. “Good morning, Mr. Corco
ran : good morning,” said he,
as he entered the great banking
house, which was the fiscal agent of the
government, “Good morning, Mr. Sec
retary,” said the great banker in the
blandest manner. -‘What is it I can do
for you this morning, Mr. Secretary?”
Mr. Webster was Secretary of State" at
the time. “A little favor for my friend
Choate. He wants a little money", and I
told him I thought I could get it for him.
A thousand. 1 believe, he made his note
for,” passing the paper to the banker.
There was no such thing as hesitating,
much less declining, and so the banker
was only too happy to accommodate the
head of Mr. Fillmore's administration.
The gold was laid out in two equal piles
at Mr. Webster’s request. Putting one
in each pocket, and with one of the bows
which Mr. Webster only could give, he
departed. “Here, Choate, here is the five
hundred,” said the great expounder, en.
tering where Choate was waiting. Hand
ing him the gold, Mr. Webster resumed
his reading, where he had been interrupted
by Choate's entrance. It is further stated
that Mr, Corcoran has in his collection of
autographs a note for SI,OOO signed by
Rufus Choate and indorsed by Daniel
Webster.

THE ISSUE IN OHIO.
How the Republican I’arty Stands Upon
the Prohibition Question.
Columbus Special to New York World.
The Republican leaders of Ohio are very
much embarrassed at this time for ah
“issue” to serve them in the approaching
campaign. Immediately upon the nomi
nation of Judge Hoadly the Cleveland
Leader formulated an “issue,” to wit, that
the Democratic candidate for Governor
was an infidel. But before the Republi
can press had time to ring the changes
upon this “issue,” it was annihilated by
the discovery that, so far from Judge
Hoadly being an infidel, he was an ex
emplary and prominent member of the
Unitarian Church of Cincinnati.
It was next charged that he was not a
Democrat, or one of such recent date
that the “mossbacks” or older Democrats
could not and would not vote for him on
the score of party consistency. But to
this there was no response and the second
“issue” fell stillborn. There is not a
Democratic paper in the State but cor
dially supports Judge Hoadly, not a prom
inent Democrat but supports him, not a
prominent local leader of the party in any
county in the State but supports him, and
not one of them doubts his Democracy or
has cause to doubt it. The only Demo
crats who have expressed dissatisfaction
with his nomination are some of the warm
personal friends of Gen. Ward, and
ground their dissatisfaction not on his not
being a Democrat, but because General
Ward was entitled to the nomination.
This again left them without an “issue”
and as a last resort they have gone back
to Governor Foster's battle cry of last
year that the Democratic party is a whis
ky party, and to give this “issue” any vi
tality will be to the injury of Republican
prospects, for Judge Foraker was nomi
nated on the sole recommendation that
his candidacy would conciliate the liquor
interests in Cincinnati and Cleveland and
the other large cities.
The Democratic party occupies pre
cisely the same position this year that it
did last, with reference to the temperance
question—opposition to all sumptuary
legislation and in favor of a license sys
tem by amendment to the constitution.
The Republicans in the last Legislature
attempted to forestall the Democracy by
the enactment of a law fixing a uniform
license of S2OO on all places where intoxi
cating liquors are sold, without reference
to the location or amount of business
done, and without requiring the keepers
of drinking places to observe any laws of
the State as a condition precedent to re
taining their licenses. Under the law, as
it stands, no disorderly house can be
closed, because the license to sell and
keep open cannot be revoked, and
although the proprietor may be locked up
for disorderly conduct, he can still keep
his place open by his agents under his
license or “tax,” as it is called.
The absurd evasion of the State constitu
tion, which expressly forbids the granting
of license for the sale ot intoxicating
liquors, was heid constitutional by the
Republican members of the Supreme
Court, two of whom were candidates for
election on a platform which asserted the
law to be constitutional. These two
Judges had been appointed by Governor
Foster to fill vacancies on the bench, as
is alleged, with the understanding that
they were to decide favorably to the law
along with the one Judge who last dis
sented from the opinion—four to one—of
the same court, declaring a similar law
unconstitutional on the ground that the
pretended tax was a license and came
within the constitutional inhibition.
To still further complicate their situa
tion, the Republican Legislature sub
mitted three proposed amendments to the
liquor question: 1. A license system. 2.
Absolute prohibition of manufacture and
sale. 3. The regulation of the traffic by
legislative enactments. These are now
before the people, and the Republican At
torney General has caused to be published
an opinion to the effect that a voter may
vote for all of these amendments, or
for two of them or for one or for
neither. Let us suppose that under the
opinion, which amounts to a decision of
the law officer of the State, a majority of
all the voters of the State should’vote for
all three of the amendments, we would
then have liquors sold under license, the
sale and manufacture ot liquors abso
lutely prohibited, and legislative control,
including local option ! I could not give
a clearer idea of tne contradictory posi
tion of the Republican party on the liquor
question than this.
And it has its purpose. The Republi
can leaders intend to declare themselves
in favor of license among those who favor
license; prohibition among those who fa
vor prohibition and local option among
local optionists. But just now the lead
ers are alarmed over their chances for
working this scheme successfully, from
the fact that some forty or flity "leading
Methodist divines have issued a call for a
delegate convention to meet in the city,
consider the proposed amendments and
unite in favor of the adoption of the prohi
bition amendment anti the rejection of the
other two.
If this call is generally responded to the
Republicans will have an “issue” on their
hands that they would gladly get rid of—
an “issue” that will sink them under 30,-
000 majority.
The Latest Hot Weather Directions.
New York Graphic.
Keep cool. Wear a cabbage leaf in your
hat. Carry a sun umbrella. Don’t walk
on the sunny side of the street. Don’t
drink too much ice water. Nor beer. Nor
spirits. Don’t overwork. Don’t worry.
Knock off business in the heat of the day.
Take sponge baths every few minute's.
Get on jour SIOO,OOO yacht and run up
and down the harbor. Let your business
slide and retire to the cool, "shady groves.
Don't read political editorials." Never
mind about the next President. Put it on
ice. Cultivate perspiration. Sleep all
you can. Live in j-our bath room. Think
of the poor. Never mind charity, but
think of them in some cool place.

drink. It is more like the old fashioned
boneset tea, that has done a world of
good. If you don’t feel just right, try

| Has been more destructive to human
| health and life than war, pestilence
and famine combined.” So said a dis-
I inguished writer many years ago, and
it is as true to-day as then. The poor
victim of Blood’ Disease is dragged
with Mercury to cure the malady, and
then dosed with lodides to cure him of
the Mercurial Poisoning; but instead of
any relief, the first breaks down his
general health and makes him a crip
ple, and the other rums his digestive
organs. To those afflicted in this way
Swift’s Specific is the greatest boon on
earth, awl is worth more than its
weight m gold. It antidotes this Mer
curial Poison, tones lip the system, and
brings the sufferer back to health and
happiness. Every person who has ever
been salivated should by all means
take a thorough course of this remedy.

Five years ago I found on my planta- I
lion a colored man who was badly dis
eased. He stated that five years be- i
fore he had contracted a violent case
of Blood Poison, awl had been treated
by many physicians, al) failing to cure
him. I treated him with Swift's Spe
cific, and in a short time he was sound
anil well, and has not had a symptom
of the disease since.
