•am, THIEVES IN POLITICS. Th. DleposlUonor Jay HrtMU’a Iimh No Accounting Ever Aak.d For. Washington, Nov. 2.-There are strong and well-founded suspicions that the large earns of money extort ed by Jay Hubbell’s committee are not by any means devoted to political objects exclusively. It is bad enough to blackmail poor women who e v .e out a living in the departments in infe rior place*, though many of them are far more competent and faithful than tho favored partisans with big sala ries for the “cause.” But when the arbitrary assessments are appropriated to personal uses, the baseness of this extortion tiecomes all the more glaring. These party levies hsve helped to make politics a trade, by which many active managers have grown wealthy. The controlling committees are usu ally directed by two or three men, and net unfrequently by one, who bosses the machine as Jay Huhhell does the congressional committee. Tire contributions and tire levies go into these few hands. There is no ac countability and no supervising pow er which can bring the recipients to book. The eleotion over, the busi ness of the committee for the year is ended, and is resumed with the next coutest only, without any questions being asked or any returns being made. The republicans have a standing army of one hundred and ten thou sand office-holder* to assess for every campaign. Tills year they have been called upon three successive times for two per cent, on their salaries at each levy. The heads of bureaus and the chiefs of divisions generally set the example by subscriptions beyond the limit. Outside of this regular force, the great corporations, the monopolists, the manufacturers, and the rings are always'counted sure for liberal dona tions, according to the share of their respective interests or of their person al concern in the elections. This fund has attained vast propor tions in some years, and ordinarily it aggregates hundreds of thousands of dollars. The belief obtains that a con siderable per centage of the money finds its way into the pockets of those who handle it. Even if detected in stealing, there is no danger of punish ment, because these persons possess secrets that protect them If there was a risk of prosecution, as there is not. The opinion that Jay Hubbell ha* utilised bis position and the resources of the committee to promote an ambi tion to be senator from Michigan has impaired confidence iu him, and has contradicted the regular revenues this year when the demands for corrupt coalitions and congressional candi dates are exceptionally great. Local calls in all the states have also neces sarily diminished collections for gen eral use at the centres. The legitimate expenses of a stab? election ore of oourse proportioned to its sire. In New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and tiie like they are large. The democrats have no resource to draw upon except the free gifts o! those who are able and wil ling to font the bills. They cannotbe- gin to compete with the republicans in money, and in the existing state of demoralized politics that fact explains many detents oi the former. Professional politicians ure much alike on both sides, and they often combine for special objects to divide responsibility when engaged in the most bitter campaigns. ■ The bluster ing before the public disappears when it <s time to throw the mask off, and when the traders come together for business, or for legislation “with moa-‘ ey In It.” It Is difficult to get rid of these mer cenary managers, who, iu victory or in detent, make a good living out of polities, and usually get rich. They rot m connections aud ties not easy to break, and they have made elections a sort of exuut science, where the piizeaare very valuable aud the losses are very small. They cover defeat by combinations. THE STATE ROAD LEASE. Conclusion of Argument In 8uprsme Court and tbs Present Aspect of the Case. Constitution, US. Yesterday the supreme court resum ed consideration of the case of the state of Georgia against the lessees of tiie Western and Atlantic railroad, coining before that court on the writ of prohibition to prevent the continu ance of a trial of the case in the court below, while there waspending an appeal to the supreme court on a bill of exceptions to rulings of Judga Wil lis on motions o.' counsel for the les sees to dismiss suits to forfeit the lease. Julias L. Brown, ns counsel for the lessees, concluded the reading of tiie lengthy record of the case which he had begun the day before. Argu ments were made by Major J. B. Cum- mtug and General Lawton for the les sees. For the state spoke Attorney- General Anderson and Captain Henry Jackson. The case was argued with great ability on both sides, and the court had tiie merits of the appeal on the decision against tiie injunction very fully presented. The bench consisted of Justices Crawford and Speer aud Judge Tomp kins, who was chosen in the place of Chief Justice Jackson. The decision will probably be rendered noxt Tues day. The case la considerably compli cated by the resolution of Mr. Brooks, of Floyd, now pending before the house of representatives, declaring that the sentiment of the people ol the state is decidedly against the proceed ings looking to a forfeiture of the lease, and reciting that, as the etate may be Involved In long litigation without chance of any profit, the gov ernor tye therefore requested by the general assembly to iustruct the At torney-General to discontinue all pro ceedings Instituted to inquire into the sufficiency of the bond or other ques tions involving the validity of tftfc lease. The resolution has been referred to the judldgry committee not yet ap pointed,, and is warm contest ovqr it will surely occur there as a prelimina ry to the still more stubborn fight in the house when the report is made. The oounsel for the lessees claim con fidently that the decision of the au preme court will throw the case virtu ally out of court, but the state’s attor neys are, os they have been all the while, firm in the balief that they will carry their point. The case is one of the most important ever brought before the courts of Georgia. Toe Mirror Telegraph. An Interesting experiment in hell, ograpby, or signaling by Bunshlne, was successfully made In Egypt during the recent campaign. Colonel Keyscr ascended the pyramids near Cairo, nnd by means of a heliograph- lo minor reflected a ray or sunlight to Alexandria, 120 miles away. At that great distance the signals, appearing like pin points ol brightness, were easily ascertained to be a message from Sir Garnet Wolsesey to the Khe- dive, LATE NEWS.

The rest of the track Is over a bound less waste of waters.

[Detroit Free iVni.) Just back of Missionary Ridge, Chat tanooga, while following the highway to rearli Tunnel Hill, I came across a little church, half hidden in the woods. Tiie building was primitive, and the old darkey who ant on the log by the door was more so. Alter I had made inquiries about the route, nnd was ready to go on, lie said: “Better come down, boss, an' come into inretin’.” ■‘Do you hold services this afternoon my friend T" “Yes, sah. We gwine to open in about five minits, an’ I speeds de ser mon will be a powerful one.” It didn’t seem right to be riding around the country on Sunday, and so I got down and took a seat beside the old man. After a few minhtes spent in general talk, he Mid It w-as time to go in. I followed after him and found my self the sole audience. I next found that he was the preacher who was to deliver the powerful sermon. He open ed services in regular form and with all due solemnity, and then announced his text and commenced preaching. I stood it for fifty-five minutes, and then, as he had only reached “Second G," I waited until he had closed his eyes, then made a dive for the door. It was no good. I hadn’t gone six feet before he stopped his sermon and asked: “Stranger, must you bo gwine?” “Yes, I feel that I must.” “An’ you can’t slop and heah de rest of de discord!" •No.” * Den I’ll chop off right whar I Is.” * Oli, don’t do that. You can go on with your sermon just the same.” But you see dnr inns’ be a colleckshun tooken up after de sermon,” lie said, In anxious tunes. “ If you’ll oblige me by inkin' a seat, I'll sing a hymn an’ pass de hat.” I sat down and when he had read and sung a hymn lie passed his hat, trans ferred tho quarter to his vest pocket, and said: “ I di-l’nt get down to the most pow erful part of de sermon; but if you hap pen 'long tills wny uex' Sunday I’ll give you de odder half. Dat quarter comes Jlat in time to encourage me to keep de good work Idlin’.’-’ The Silver Lining to the Cloud. Yonng Glucky, of the Union Club, had been up in Martin county shooting lor a week, when he received a dispatch calling him home. My dear boy,” said his partner, tak ing him aside, “hove you the conrrge to bear up under a terrible blow ?" “W-w-hat is it?” gBsped Glucky. “Your wife has eloped.” “Great Scott,” said the deserted hus band, “with whom?” Yonr tailor.” You don’t say so,” replied the be reaved man, with a beaming smile. “Why, I owed him $600.
