A New York man has invented a loco
motive which, he alleges, cau run 120
miles an hour as easily as the present
locomotive can run 00 miles an hour. He
says that it will move a train of seven or
ten oars 100 miles an hour ami keep a
continuous speed at that rate, and that its
merits are safety, speed and economy,
requiring only about one-half of the fuel
needed by the ordinary locomotive to pro
duce similar results. This inveution has
no connection with the famous Keeley
motor.
It is stated that during Gen. Grant’s
recent visit to Washington President Ar
thur, contrary to all precedent, paid him
the honor of a (tersonal visit. It appears,
however, that the visit was love’s labor
lost, for instead of making an early re
turn call at the White House to show his
appreciation of the compliment. Gen.
Grant merely sent over his card. This
was certainly very rude conduct, if not a
personal insult, on the part of Gen. Grant.
But he probably has reason to connect
the President’s visit with the const ruc
tion department of his Presidential boom
and wished to administer a little check to
the manoeuvre.
Bill To-day.
that Mr. Morrison will
|cair*\jj3ros tariff liß t to-day. There is a
uArt deal of sy ■eeul atlon whether the pro
tection Deinoc‘ra\s will favor or oppose
the consideration of the bill. Last week
a leading Uej nttdican Representative said
that at least forty Democrats would join
the Republicans against considering the
bill. That number will be sufficient to
defeat it. It is not improbable, liowever,
that the Republican Representative was
not well informed. It is certain that a
strong influence lias been brought to bear
on the protection Democrats to induce
i them to vote against taking up the bill.
All the available arguments have been
; used. It is said that the backward condi-
I tion of the appropriation bills and the
| lateness of the session make a tariff de
j bate impracticable. The uselessness of
j passing or even of debating a bill that is
certain to meet no encouragement in the
Senate, is urged with all tin-force of which
it is susceptible. It may !*• that the pro-
tection Democrats will yield to the press
ure brought to bear on them, and will help
the Republicans defeat the bill. If they
do. it is about as certain as anything can
be that they will have occasion to regret
their action. Now is the time for the
Democrats to show the country that their
professions in favor of tariff reform are
genuine. They can do this only bv pro
ceeding with the work of reducing the
tariff. Because the appropriation bills are
demanding attention is no reason why the
tariff bill should Ik- set aside. It certain
ly is as imjiortaiit as the appropriation
bills. It is, in fact, far more important to
the JVenuicratie party. Let the people
get the idea that the Democratic par
ty has been shamming with re
gard to tariff reform, and its
chance of success in the Presidential con
test will l>e gone. The Republicans are
exerting themselves to prevent the con
sideration of tin- hill. If it is so certain
that it- passage will damage the Demo
crats. and that the Dili cannot get through
the Senate, why are the Republicans ob
jecting so strongly to it. It would seem
as if policy would dictate to them t<• let
the Democrats damage their party by
passing the bill in the House as quickly
as jKissilile. Whv do they oppose it? Do
they tear that after all tariff reform may
prove very popular with the jK-ople, or
are they in doubt as to what the Senate
would do with the bill? Perhaps they
understand that in the very near future
public sentiment will demand a groat re
duction in the tariff, and they arc prepar
ing to reap the benefit of making it. The
last annual message of the President, and
the Inst rejuirt of the Secretary of the
Treasury certainly lock towards tariff re
duetiqji. The protection Democrats who
accept the voice of a few manufacturers
as the voice of the people, make a great
mistake. They may defeat the only policy
that promises to give their party control
of the government and they may see that
policy adopted by the Republican party.
The Salvation Army.
The salvation Army may have done
some good, but it is not composed of tlie
kind of people that one cares to have a
great deal to do with. The army has not
invaded the South, and it is doubtful if
there are any regrets on that account.
The methods of the army are not in all re
spects commendable. In New York and
Brooklyn it hasn't awakened unalloyed
enthusiasm. It has created some excite
ment, but the Is-ttcr class of people lias
kept away from the meetings. The Sal
vation Army scheme originated in Eng
land. and met with great success. The
<iencral-iii-< 'hief, it is alleged, made a
fortune in a short time selling religious
publications of one kind and another.
The commander of the Salvation Army
forces in tills country is Maj. Thomas E.
Mooiv. His headquarters are in Brook
lyn. While conducting services there on
Saturday a couple of New Brunswick. N.
.1., detectives arrested him. The charge
against him in New Jersey was grand
larceny. It seems that lie drew from the
bank S9OO which is claimed by a branch
of the army which no longer recognizes
the Major’s authority, and to which, it is
alleged, be had no right whatever. He is
in a very unpleasant position and will
have some trouble to rid himself of the
entanglements of the law. He may lie
unjustly accused, but, admitting that he
is, there is something wrong either with
the brunch or main stem of the army.
Silk Culture.
The production of raw silk is one of the
“infant” industries in this country. I 1
has been an “infant" industry for a good
many years, and it promises to continue
in its infancy. To show liow insignificant
it is. it is only necessary to say that it is
not protected. Cocoons and raw silk are
admitted free of duty. The agent who
searched for statistics of the silk culture
industry in I*Bo for the census report
couldn’t find any. He reported that less
than 1.000 pounds were produced in Utah,
about ."Shi pounds iu Kansas, and that no
other state produced as much as
230 pounds in IsSO. la-ss than
half a century ago nearly all the States
were badly afflicted w ith the silk culture
craze. They were finally cured, but the
cure was rather expensive. Senator Call,
of Florida, wants Congress to give silk
culture a boost. He flunks $130,000
would be enough to start with. He wants
the money put into “plants" at five sta
tions in different parts of the country and
the ex|K*riment of producing raw silk
given a fair chance. The Senator’s
scheme ought not to be condemned un
heard. There arc a good many people
who believe that the time will come when
■•ilk will be profitably produced in this
country, but the number is very small.
It is doubtful if it is large enough to give
Mr. Call's scheme any support in Con
gress.
tjuitc a number of Republican State
conventions arc to beheld this week. The
Alabama and South Carolina conventions
meet to-day. those of Pennsylvania and
Illinois to-morrow, while the Indiana,
Tennessee and Delaware conventions
meet Thursday. These States are entitled
to 2tr2 delegates, nearly one-fourth of the
whole numlter in the National Conven
tion. A large majority of the delegates
from these States have already been
selected by the district conventions, and
the State conventions will only
have the selection of delegates
from the states-atlarge. Illinois
will probably select delegates in favor of
I.ogan as first choice, with chances in
favor of Arthur as second. Pennsyl
vania's delegates will Ik- straight out for
Blaine, while Indiana will probably give
a complimentary support to either Gov.
Harrison or Judge Gresham. Alabama,
Delaware, South Carolina and Tennessee
are pretty certain to go for Arthur. None
of the Southern delegations, however, are
likely to lie pledged so firmly but that
they will In- able to stand from under in
ease of an Arthur collapse, and gracefully
take jMisitions on the winning side.
The Detroit Fm Fress says: “It is as
difficult for a rabid Republican ot the
stalwart variety to forget Ids rabidness as
for the leopard to change his spots. Even
when he tries deliberately to say a grace
ful non-partisan word ids true inwardness
crops out in spite ol him. Thus the Cleve
land leader, in rhapsodizing over Grant’s
reception in the House of Representatives,
which it regarded as highly commendable
lieeause ‘accorded by a Democratic House
to one whose sentiments are of an opi*>-
site character,’ could not refrain from ex
hibiting the cloven hoof by falsely adding
that -it was accorded to a Union General
by a ltody over which ex-Con federates
exercise controlling influence.’ The
leader knew better, unquestionably; but
habit is a sad tyrant.” The Republican
papers w ill stop at nothing in order to
weaken the influence of the Democratic
House.
The resignation of Gen. Badeau, United
States Consul General at Havana, is said
to have been caused by a little difference
between himself and the government. The
amount of the difference is said to be
about $ 10,000, with the balance in Gen.
Badeau’s favor. He has held the position
for two years, and it has been several
times hinted to him that it is customary
for Consuls-General to divide consular
fees occasionally with the governments
they represent. Gen. Badeau will be re
membered as the biographer of Gen.
Grant, and he is one of the most patriotic
members of the grand old party.
Amusing Stories.
What an amusing lot of stories there
are afloat aliout the Morrison tariff bill!
Anew one makes its appearance nearly
every other day. Late last week Morri
son was seen walking in the House lobby
arm-in-arm with Judge Kelley, the leader
of the Republican protectionists. It was
immediately whispered around, and soon
telegraphed abroad, shat Morrison was
trying to effect a combination with the
Republicans to secure support for his
bill. Of course there was not the least
foundation for such a story. Last Satur
day it was reported that Representative
Eaton, of Connecticut, on behalf of a
number of the .Democratic protection
members, called on Morrison and begged
him to give up his bill and to consent to
substitute for it another bill which
he (Eaton) would assist in framing.
Morrison liecame very angry and em
phatically refused to consider any such
pro]iositiou. This second story is as ab
surd as the lirst. The Democratic pro
tectionists arc as much against consider
ing any tariff bill as they are against the
Morrison bill. Any bill reducing the
tariff that Eaton might draw lip would
meet with the same opposition that Mor
rison's bill encounters. The Morrison
bill is the bill of the Ways and Means
Committee and received the approval of
all the Democratic members of that com
mittee before it was re portent to the House.
That committee represents the tariff
policy of the Democratic party. What
nonsense it is. therefore, to suppose that
Morrison would consent to let Eaton
draw a Dill to b<- substituted for his Dill.
But these amusing stories are not based
oa reason.
A New York Krmhuj Post dispatch
says that Air. Tilden is ambitious to die
in the White House and ttint he lias a
literary bureau at work preparing the
way for his nomination at Chicago. The
Washington Star lias a dispatch that Mr.
Tilden lias absolutely declined to
p-rmit his name to go before the
National Convention. The Star's dispatch
further says that lie lias quite completed
a letter which will be addressed to the
Chairman of the New York Democratic
State Convention, or possibly to the (.'hair
man of tin- New York delegation to
Chieago, in which he announces that he is
not a candidate. It sets forth his reason
more emphatically than his letter to the
New York delegation to Cincinnati in
June, ISNO, and includes some references
personal to himself. Now let the Pacific
coast delegation of Congressmen, who
went to New York to see Mr. Tilden yes
terday, rejiort as soon as possible. A
waiting world is anxious to know what
they discovered respecting Tilden’s health
and intentions.

“Lo, the jioor Indian! how rapidly he is be

dinner table. “I.et us see,” said his vijt-a-vit,
“that is true, and it is not true. When Jeffer
son was President there were more than a
million Indians in this country; how, accord
ing to the best statistics we can gather, there
arc only 242.000. Yet it is true that, despite
all their disadvantages and the ravages of the
small-pox and the white man, there was an
increase in our aboriginal population between
IX7O and 1830.”
From 1676 to 1882 the population of Norway
increased 104,000. There were 190,000 more
births than deaths, but 94,000 individuals emi
grated daring that period. Up to 1880 the av
erage increase was 23,000; but in that year it
only reached 9,000, while it is calculated that
it, i'n Ixßl, will amount to nothing, amt that
the year of 1882 will show a decrease of 4,000.
It is'the first time since 1814 that the popula
tion of Norway has been decreasing. This is
caused by the increasing emigration, almost
entirely to the United States, amountiug, in
18X0, to 22,000; in 1881, to 26,000, and in Ixß2 to
28,000.

LOUISIANA’S ELECTION LAW.
The Trouble which the Ballot Paper
Has Given.
The new patent election law prescribed
by the Louisiana Legislature fer the use
of the people, says a New Orleans special
to the New York Times, promises to come
back to plague the inventors. The law
says:
“That all the names of persons voted for
shall be printed on one ticket or ballot of
white paper of uniform size and quality, to
be furnished by the Secretary of State.” ’
As soon as the Republicans nominated
their ticket, Judge Merchant, the Chair
man of the Republican Campaign Com
mittee, and a very shrewd politician, lost
uo time in calling on the Secretary of
State and purchasing a very large supply
of the ticket paper. The balance of the
supply was purchased by a few New Or
leans job printers. Then it was discovered
that the stock was exhausted, and not
half the country parish Democrats were
supplied. This places the Democratic
otlieial in an unpleasant predicament, and
sent him in haste to this city. How the
matter was finally arranged is explained
in a card which lie publishes in the morn
ing papers here, in which he lets the cat
out of the bag in saying:
“Owing to the uneasiness felt in regard to
election paper I will state that in ordering
this paper I had it water-lined ‘Secretary of
State.’ This was done for identification oiily.
I ordered 2,000,000 of tickets of that kind, bas
ing my estimates on the Congressional and
city election of 18S2, leaving a margin of 900,-
000. At this late day I find that the orders
from country parishes have more than con
sumed the original amount of paper ordered,
so I instructed my agents, llrandeto A Cos., of
New Orleans, to secure all the paper of that
quality without the water-line and use it.
They have done so, and have a sufficient quan
tity of paper for all emergencies. The law
does not contemplate that the paper should
he water-lined."

There is in the vicinity of New York a

the hunting ground of a large number of

one day a traveler entered the village and
called at the tavern. The place was re
markably quiet, and knowing by reputa
tion the evil name the place bore, lie
said to the landlord:
“I think your village is most unjustly
maligned. A more orderly and peaceful
spot 1 never saw, and as for the bad boys
why, 1 have seen no boy of any descrip
tion in the place. 1 suppose they are all
at school?"
“No,” quoth the landlord, “they are all
the other side of the village.”
“Ah! at a meeting?”
“Stoning a funeral!”

Correspondence of the Morning Setts.
Millf.n, Ga., April 12.—Although this
has been a rainy day many farmers have
come here purchasing spring supplies,
some of them from quite a distance. They
report that fruit and young corn is slight
ly injured, occasioned by light frosts that
have attended the cool nights during
the week past. In this section
the acreage in cotton will
Ik* very large. Planting is lteitig vigor
ously pushed forward. The amount of
commercial fertilizers used is small in
comparison with the amount used last
season. Many farmers have been unable
to obtain any,"owing, principally, to the
small amount offered for sale —the result
of poor collections. This matter has be
come more serious every season, and in
this section the crisis will soon be readi
ed unless a change is effected. The pres
ent destitute condition of our farmers
cannot escape the notice of tlie most
casual observer. The large quantity of
Western provisions that are almost daily
received ut this point is ample evidence
of this fact, and many farmers are unable
to obtain supplies," owing to incum
brances on their farms. Agents represent
ing Northern companies are locat
ed at nearly all the impor
tant business centres negotiating
loans on real estate and improved farms,
which are mortgaged and in sonic in
stances deeds are given. The amount of
money applied for by the planter is heav
ily discounted when he obtains it. He
nevertheless pays the legal interest of S
per cent, per milium on the total amount
applied for until due. when, if he is un
able to cancel his obligation, his farm is
no longer liis. Many of our wisest citizens
predict that in the next few years
large portions of Georgia’s fertile cotton
belt will have passed into the hands of
speculators. I" have, however, had one
good feature suggested to me in connec
tion with this loan business. In conver
sation with a Northern gentleman a few
days ago, he remarked to me, “Your
lands, after having passed into other
hands, will be divided into small farms.
This will induce immigration, and a
higher state of cultivation will prevail.”
This remark favorably impressed me, and
may attract the attention of many others.

l>r. W. I\ Burt, a prominent citizen of
Americas, was hero this week and con
tracted with the Manhattan Artesian
Well Company to bore an artesian well in
that town. President Brush and his as
sistants are making preparations to de
part. The derrick is being torn down to
day and loaded, with other material, for
shipment to A meric us, where operations
will bi*<rin as soon as practicable. It is
now generally conceded that our stream
is the largest flow of artesian water in the
State, showing an increase of twen
ty-live gallons per minute in
tin* last two weeks. A measurement was
taken on yesterday showing a flow of pre
cisely 225 gallons per minute. This is tin*
first "artesian well that has been bored in
the Southern States by the above compa
ny, and President Brush is justly proud of
bis success. He has made many friends
during liis stay with us, whose best wishes
go with him to his new field oj labor.
