From the New York Tribune we
take the following view of the situa
tion in Boston itself:
Our estimate sets the entire loss at
eighty millions of dollars—a prodi
gious destruction in itself, but by no
means sufficient to inflict a Crushing
o
blow upon the prosperity of Boston.
All the old boot and shoe manufactu
ring and commission firms are solvent
and even strong, as before the lire,
and, by their solvency, will preserve
to Boston unimpaired that very valm
able line of business. Very many of
the jobbing firms, in thp same line
came out with large losses, it is true
.but able to meet all their engage
ments and continue their business.—
The same may be said in general
terras of large manufacturers and
dealers in clothing. Their stocks in
hand is consumed, .but their surplus
of assets in bills and accounts receiva
ble together with what insurance they
will be able to recover, will save them.
That there will be fairies in several
of the leading lines of business is
probable ; but in the case of firms we
believe it will be found that after a
suspension of payment until they can
ascertain how much of their insu
2'auee cau be realized, they will re
sumc payments and go on as before.
In the magnitude of its destructive
ness the Boston conflagration of 1872
is second in rank among all the fires
which have occurred in the United
States, that of Chicago, of course,
standing at the head of the list. By
the last-named most terrible event
some 17000 buildings, covering an
area of 2,124 acres were sonsumed ;
but the difference in the comparative
valuo of the buildings and goods des
troyed there and here may be infer
red from the fact that the total actual
loss by the Chicago fire was $196,099-
000, the amount assigned to buildings
being $53,000,000, and to merchan
dise and personal effects $143,000 000
The destruction by our fire, covering
less than a thirtieth of the space, was
therefore by value very nearly one
half that of the great Chicago calami

Attention is called to the report of the
board of directors of the above road pub
lished in another place. As will be no
ticed the exhibit made of the earnings
and expenses of the road, for tho past
year, is very satisfactory, and shows
conclusively that it fills a needed
liuk, and that it will pay good divi
dends in the future, when the construc
tion la further advanced. It is grati
tying to know that while the earnings
for the past year have increased,
the expenses have decreased be
ing sufficient to pay interest on bond
ed debt, leaving a balance to go to
wards the new construction.
As will be seen, the Directors
speak very encouragiugly of the fu
ture prospects of the road, and think
that the prospects for aid, to continue
the construction of tho roa l very fa
vorable indeed.

no active part in the political world

The Leading Liberal Republican
Journal of Kcic England on "the
Result.''
The close of the chapter in anew
aud important movement in American
politics justifies some formal observa
tions on its character and incidents.
It is well to look back before we look
forward. Hence we remark :
1. The nomination of Horace
Greeley at Cincinnati was a political
blunder. Public opinion had settled
down upon another man—the senior
Adams. The country was all pro
pared and waiting tor him. Mr. Gree
ley’s candidacy came upon it \vi Ji the
shock of complete surprise. Thou
sands of voters found themselves sud
denly at sea again, and the greater
number drifted back, more or less
precipitately, to their old party moor
ings. We do not wish to bo misun
derstood on this point Mr. Greeley
undoubtedly bad a much stronger
claim upon the nomination than Mr.
Adams. He had shown a more
statesmanlike conception of the actual
status, a finer instinct, a more coura
geous and self sacrificing fidelity to
his convictions of public intelligence
of reform than his conipettior, he had
more of spirit. We are not by any
means sure that he would not have
made a better President. All we
mean to say is, that Mr. Adams
was the most available candidate.—
lie would have received the support
not only of the doctrinaires and dil
etfanti, the kid-glove reformers, tho
superfine journalists, college professors
and reverend clergy—but also of the
solid business men, the capitalists,
manufacturers, importers, etc. The
mammon of unrighteousness was well
affected toward him. Mr. Gunny
ba"?, who has since subscribed so lib
o J
orally to General Grant’s campaign
fund, was originally an Adams man.
In fact, there was at least an even
chance, last spring, that Mr. Adams,
if nominated, would be elected.
2. Mr. Greeley h;*s been not a liuio
in hired by some of his supporters.—
Os course, a candidate for tho Presi
dency cannot pick and choose. Ho
may innocently take such support as
offers itself—always provided that he
does not connive or wink at. oomip
tion in the interest of his candidacy.
-But Mr. Greeley's defeat and Poor
* 4
Traw’s beating have one moral be
tweyim tnern ; it is unsafe to be found
iiybad company. If Mr. Greeley had
never entangled himself with the Fen
tons, and A1 void*, and Hank Smiths
and John Cochranes of New York pol
itics, it might have fared very differ
ently with him in this canvass.
3. General Grant owes his good
luck to a number of causes, lie had
the inside tract from ihe start. lie
had the handling of a splendid party
organization, and a disciplined arm)
of the office-holders. The attachment
of Republicans to their party and a
fear of a Democratic restoration oper
ated powerfully in his favor. k\ hen
| such men as Dawes, Garfield and
Hawley shrank back in alright from
the logical consequences of their own
teachings and actions, we had no
right to expect that the humbler
members of the party, however dis
contented and 111 at case, would show
a higher moral courage than their
natural leaders. Thoiiaand of tueiv
did. Jno Republican kitlmts cat tor
Mr. Greeley on Tuesday were enough,
twice over, to have elected him, if the
Democrats had polled anything like
their fill party vote. But. the nonii
nation ot Mr. Greeley bad precipi
tated the dissolution of the Democratic
party. Its statesmanship, intelligence,
and moral worth rallied with a most
surprising and gratifying zeal to his
support. But the hot-heads, the im
practieables, the reactionists, the cor
ruptionists, the mercenaries—all these
classes of Democrats either voted
outright tor Geu. Grant, threw away
their votes, or stayed at home. It is
to these Democrats that Gen. Grant
owes his re election. Without the
support, direct and indirect, that they
have given him, he would ha ve waked
up this morning to find himself a beat
en Two powerful forces have
steadily befriended him—the common
Northern distrust of the South, left
over from the war ; and the nervous
ness, amounting to timidity, with
which capital and business contem
plate the idea of change. Partly
from a not ignoble sentiment of
gratitude to the party, but chiefly
from ignorance and unfounded ap
prehension, the negroes have giv
en this Buchanan Democrat their
solid vote, turning their back
upon ona of their most deserving ben
efactors. All the l ings in the country
—the railroad ring, banking ring,
iron ling, coal ring, Indian ring, the
land grabbers, the carpet-baggers, the
jobbers and plunderers of every name
and degree, have contributed of their
time and substance to this re election.
But the chief factor in General Grant’s
success in money. He owes his se
cond term to the most profuse and
corrupt use ot money ever witnessed
in an American election. The men
to whom he intrusted his fortunes
have bought right and left, by whole
sale and retail. Every step of the
roadbv which he returns to the White
House is paved with greenbacks. |
True statesmanship is compound of;
tisight, courage, and tact; in this
canvass, Mr. Greeley has shown that
he possesses the American brains.
4. If the canvass has ftot made Mr.
Greeley President, it has insured him
an enviable place in history, and a
not less enviable place in the respect,
admiration, and affection ot his conn
trvtnen. When the passions of the
hour pass away, when we come to
reap the fruits of Tuesday’s planting,
Horace Greeley will begin to loom
up head and shoulders above content
prr.iry statesmen. Grata Brown was
ri<dit. If the old overcoat covers a
heart child like in its kindness, the
old hat covers the largest and most
active of all th'ee qualities in a very
high degree. Ilis bearing has been
very nearly perfect, and his speeches
will one of these days be read with
the general admiration they d< serve,
but which personal prejudice und par
tisan feeling now deny. He has been
beaten by ignorant and purchased
voters ; but his cause is in sure hands
and his complete vindication is only a
question of time. He can well af
| ford to wait. —Springfield Republic

tesT Alabama has too Legislatures.
At the appointed time for the.* meeting
' last week, the Conservatives organized

i tieipafe with them, and met and or
! ganized a Legislature of their own,
! swearing in enough members without
i certificates of election, to constitute a
quorum. The Conservatives have
! enough members to constitute a quo
rum, though the Rads had twoof their
; members arrested, for some violation
!of the election laws in counties, from

I The cause of tha whole row, is the
i election of a United States Senator.
Glowing Spirit of Easy Specie
lation.
The inclination to speculate —which
in many instances is nothing short of
gambling, is one of the direct evils
that menace the young men of the
day. Men no longer work to cstabs
Hah a solid business that they may
rest when the rainy days of age come
on, but plan to make a fortune in a few
months, that they may sit in embroid
ered slippers and chuckle over a 2? 10
horse. This, sentiment creeps insidi
ously into public opin ion, and the son
of men whose money was coined from
the sweat of their brows, twirl their
ivory headed canes in scorn at labor,and
the middle classes compelled to work,
spend their income in keeping up
false appearances. They, too, must
vvear dove colored pantaloons and pol
ished boots. They must wear ilia
moral studs and seal rings, and carry
young ladies to the opera in hired car
riages, at the rate of three hours’ use
for three days’ salary or wages. They
must take a turn now and then at
billiards, stand treat to the
tails,” bet upon their veracity when
called in question, and Inst of all must,
demonstrate their nerve by fighting
the tiger until it claws the last dime
out of their pockets, and claws last
ing scratches upon their souls. —
* Fighting the tiger !” Feeding the
tiger would be a better term.—
The evil consequences of a blind in
fat nation with this curse cannot be
overestimated. The only safe guard
a .aiast this terrible vice is a proper ap
predation of the meaning of work—
not work as the slave works to eat
and cats to work, but work to reach a
b'Jier plane of effort, both body and
mind If the secret history of the
heart were revealed in the light of
the confessional, it would disclose in
connection with this growing evil a
list of heart pangs that would read
like a book of martyrs. Work then
and a thorough appreciation of the
dignity of labor, and the value of its
recompense are the surest safeguards
against the siren’s voice. —Savannah
