Joe Bradley Again.
Tho New York Sun of last Saturday
revived the story of tho electoral con
spiracy with tho following remarkable
statement of facts:
“After the argument upon the Flor
ida case before the late electoral com
mission inAVashington Judge Bradley
wrote out his opinion and decision in
full. He completed it about six o’clock
i iu the evening of the day before the
judgment of the commission was to
bo announced, and read it to Judge
| Clifford and Judgo Field, who were
likewise members of the commission.
Lt contained, first, an argument; and,
I secondly, a conclusion. The argu
; ment was precisely tho same as that
| which appears in the published docti
j meat, but Judge Bradley’s conclusion
i was that the vote3 of the Tilden
electors iu Florida were tho only votes
which ought to bo counted as coming
from that State. This was the char
acter of the paper when Judgo Brad
ley finished it, and when he commu
nicated it to his colleagues. During
the whole of that night Judge Brad
ley’s house in Washington was sur
rounded by the carriages of visitors,
who came to see him apparently about
the decision of the electoral commis
sion, which, as we have said, was to
be announced tho next day. These
visitors included leading Republicans
as well as persons interested in the
Texas Pacific Railroad scheme. AVhen
the commission assembled next morn
ing, and when the judgment was de
clared, Judge Bradley gave his voice
in favor of counting the votes for the
Hayes electors in Florida. The argu
ment he did not deliver at the time;
but when it came to be printed sub
sequently it was found to bo precisely
the same as the argument which he!
had originally drawn up, and on i
which he had based bis conclusion in j
favor of the Tilden electors.”
The Cincinnati Enquirer's AVash
ington correspondent adds an ad- i
dition; 1 fact in relation to the alluga- i
ticu of the law:
“The night upon which the com
mission rendered its decision in the
Florida case, the Washington corre
spondent of the Enquirer had inter
views with Judge Abbott and Senator
Bayard, members of the commission.
Both expressed surprise at Bradley’s
| vote, inasmuch as his argument, upon
i which it was presumed he based it,
was wholly in favor of counting the
votes of the Tilden electors; and yet
despite such reasoning, he voted, td
tho great surprise of the Democratic
members, for the • Hayes electors,
j Senator Bayard said at the time that
t he did not believe there was a single
member on the commission, unless,
indeed, he had been apprisad in ad
vance,, that when Bradley concluded
the. reading of his argument but what
expected ho would record his vote
for the Tilden electors.”
The history of the night before the !
battle iu Bradley’s house is yet to be j
ascertained, and if tho San's story bo;
true, it is a long step towards the as
certainment of the truth. If Joe was !
not so devilish tough, there would
be some hope that he would yet un
fold the truth. Let him make a hook,
and put in it the story of his sudden
conversion. It would ease his con
science and put money in his purse.
Captain Tyson has sailed in the
schooner Florence in search of the
north pole. He is now going, how
ever, to the pole direct, but is going
to attack it by siege approaches. A
colony is to be established as far
north as possible, where they will
build winter quarters and make them
selves comfortable during the long,
dark six months night, and be ready
in the spring to make a gallant attack
on tho pole. A point has been select
ed on tho north side of the Cumber
land where there is an outcrop of a
fine vein of coal, which cap. be mined
sufficiently for their needs. Every
precaution has been taken against
scurvy. Scientific men accompany
the expedition to observe tho expedi
tion to observe the meteorology, ge
ology, botany and biology of tho ex
treme north. It is to be hoped that
this expedition will reach the pole,
and that it will bring back results of
great scientific value.
The Element ix New Yoke.— A Now
York letter says it is evident already
that the labor element will have an
important influence iu shaping the
course of approaching State conven
tions. The Tammany people thus
early are favored with a variety of
suggestions from the trades’ unions
as to what should and what should
not bo incorporated in the platform
as a condition of their support of the
canidates that are to stand upon it.
Included in these aro a re-affirmation
of the eight hour principal, the limit
iug of tho powers of railway corpo
rations and the creation of boards of
arbitration to settle ail disputes iu
future between capital and labor.
The Republicans will have tho same
opportunity to put their ingenuity to
tho test in order to be “all things to
all men.”
An unfounded reporter has spread
that Nice has been selected as the seat
for holding the future conclave to
elect a pope. The majority of tho
cardinals have declared in behalf of
Rome.
In a word, the Southern climate is
the black mans’paradise, and, if I soo
aright tne South will never be able to
dispense with this kind of labor.
Erasttii Brooks
Mr. R. M. Bishop, tho Democratic
candidate for Governor of Ohio, is
- thus described by a Cincinnati En
quirer reporter:
A tall, broad-shouldered, finely
formed man of perhaps sixty, a model
Kentuckian iu build, with full, long
gray whiskers, not only gray, but in
deed white; a keen, but withal pleas
ant eye, a shapely band, which in
earlier days—his days as a retailor—
lias often adjusted tiio weight on the
counter scales while its owner go: -
siped pleasantly with tho country
woman over her quarter of a pound
of tea; a number seven foot, good
shaped legs, full chest, and a business
head, the white hair on top of which, i
when he stood up, was fully six feet j
from the lloor. He smiled as ho saw !
tho reporter enter, for Air. Bishop, as
a Christian gentleman, is always kind !
to the humblest.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat, in
j trying to discover the reasons why
| there were no strikes or riots in
southern cities, attributes the differ
erence between tho two great sections
in this rospect, first, to the fact that
there are proportionately few non
producers iu the South, and to the
further fact that the railroad men of
the gulf states form “a very contemp
tiple fraction” of the entire popula
tion; to the lack of cities teeming
with mill hands; to the absence of
tramps, and to the fact that there is
| no dread of actual starvation to any
| body in the South. It quite forgets j
to mention in its catalogue the lead
\ ing and controlling fact, namely, the j
respect of the south for law, and its
j love for order, even under trying l
' circumstances. Tho Globe-Demo- j
! crat and all kindred papers will get j
i to the truth if they persevere.
j Gen. Stewart Woodford is still!
! talking about how pleasant he found
j everything in Mississippi. He now
says: “The three things that gave me
most encouragement are these: First.
Everybody, white and black, seemed
to be at work. Second. There were
as many acres under cultiva
tion as there were of cotton. Third.
The planters, leading business men
and leading lawyers were evidently
sincere in their desire to give the
union their hearty and effective sup
port.” After speaking about the
South ou tho stump for ton years he
|is surprised to find that he know so j
•little about it.

The case of Lee against Kaufman
et ah, tho Arlington ejectment suit, is
now pending in tho United States
circuit court for tlio eastern district
of Virginia, and a suggestion has
been filed by the attorney general
that the government is in possession
of the property under title and record,
and Judge Willoughby, special coun
sel for the United States, has tiled
a motion to dismiss the case, which
motion has been set hearsay on Sep
tember 4th. It is expected that Chief
Justice Waite will hear this cause.
Judge Robertson, of Charlottesville,
and F. L. Smith, of Alexandrie, ap
pear for the plaintiff
Hon. J. M. Stone, acting governor
of Mississipi, who has been nomi
nated by the democrats of that State
for the full term, served during the
war as colonel of a Mississippi con
federate regiment, and in the battle
j around Petersburg commanded the
| brigade to which his regiment was
! attached from 1870 to 1870 he was
'a member of tho State Senate, and
last year held the position of presi
dent of that body. When Governor
Ames resigned in March, IS7O, to es
cape removal by impeachment, Mr.
Stone became acting governor for the
remainder of tho term.
Gov. Robinson, of New York, in
pardoning young Frank Walworth,
for killing his father at a hotel in New
York in June, 1873, publishes an ex
planation, in which ho states that the
testimony of a medical expert had
decided him to be insane. Tho ap
pearance of young Walworth is ma
terially altered; his hair bus grown
white and his face and form show tho
marks of mental disease and the ef
fects of imprisonment. It is stated
that an early departure to Europe
will be taken, iu which he will be ac
companied by his mother.
Tho New York Times and the Chi
cago Liter-Ocean —tho two leading
court journals—simultaneously say
that the president has concluded to
make a trip through the Southern
States during the Christmas recess
of congress, lie will go as far as Now
Orleans, and will travel by way of
Richmond, Charleston, Atlanta and
Mobile. Ho will return by way of
Jackson, Nashville and 1 Memphis.
Postmaster General Key and 1 two or
three other members of tho cabinet
will accompany him.
A cockney conducted two ladies to
tho observatory to see an eclipse of
the moon. They wore too late; tho
eclipso was over, and tho ladies were
disappointed. “Oh,” exclaimed our
hero, “don’t fret. I know the as

lite man, and I am sure he will bogih
again.”
