SIONS WHILE ARRANUINU THEIR BUSINESS. HATCH'S CASTLE. Tho gray granite castle that steeds in uboet the centre of the hillside village of Tarrytown, says a New York letter, was built by Mr. A. \Y. Dimock, of Dimoek \ Co., who recently suspended. Five years ago Mr. Dimock sold it to Mr. A. S. Hatch, ot the drill of Fisk A Hatch, which recently collapsed, bringing down in its ruins the New ark Rank and causing jintold mis. ery among the poor depositors in Hint concern. That Mr. Hatch’s residence is really Ilia castle from turret to foun- d.tion stone no one will doubt. It looks, standing among the dwarfs of country cottages, as though Mr. Dimock had gone to Tarrytown one day with laborers, mechanics and artists and ordered them to build while lie read aloud the directions from one of Sir Walter Scott's novels. seney’s castle. pointments of the room shows that no money was spared in dtting it up The other rooms in the build ing nre on a scale of equal magnifl. cence. n. b. hatch’s mansion, Mr Daniel B. Hatch, of tho sus pended Arm of Ilntcli A Foote, for merly bankers at No. 12 Wall street, continues to reside in his splendid four-story brown stone mansion, No. 58 West Fifty-fourth street, near Fifth avenue. It is one of a row of buildings, all re- markable for their size and fash ionable exteriors, and its interior decorations arc models of lavish display of wealth. About 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon an elegant ba rouche with glass windows in front stood before the bouse. A pair ol dashing brown steeds were harness ed to tho vchicto, and a negro coachman in livery sat on tho box! ■Some of tho family were about to takoa drive in tho Park. Columbia Heights is the most fashionable section of Brooklyn, and many wealthy New Yorkers— bankers, brokers, merchants and manufacturers—have their houses there. Among the many desirable sites for dwellings in this section is Montague Terrace, which com mands an expansive view of the harbor, and in all other lcspccts is regarded ns itnapproached by any other street in Brooklyn. The most magnificent dwelling in this Is at the corner of Montague street and the terrace, on the west side. The buildings and grounds cover an area of about a quarter of an acre, and whilo there is no attempt nt gorgeous display, the establish ment is palatini in its appointments. This is the home of George I. Sene the late president of the Mctropoi tun Bank. To strangers it is often pointed out with pride as one of tho most costly residences in the City of Churches, and thousands who pass and repnrs it daily going to and from Wall street ferry have admired its striking architectural design and beauty of the well-kept grounus with which it is sur rounded. orant’h home. Gen. Grant still occupies the four-story brown stone bouse, with its bay-window front, which is the first cast of Fiftli avenue, on the north side of Sixty-sixth street. A broad staircase leads to the costly stained glass doors. If you ring a colored footman conducts you to the small reception room to tho rightof tho exquisitely fresooedjeor- ridor. This room is a gem in it self. A heavy velvet carpet is on tho floor, the walls arc hung with fine paintings, and nt tho window is a large bronze vase filled with growing flowers. Further along the corridor and turning to tho left you pass through an archway room which rich velvet hangings depend into the spacious drawing room. There the acme of luxury and good taste seems to have been reached in tho bright tinted carpets and satin furniture of odd design. There also are displayed the valua ble presents received by the Gen- cral from the sovereigns of foreign Innds during his tour around the world. The library, dining-room and tho rooms up stairs, though fitted up in less magnificent style, display the same ovidcnce of wealth anil refinement, The General is not a great connoisseur of paint ings, but be bus some which will vie in cost and merit with those of any other private owner in the city. ENO’S HOUSE. Mr. John C. Kno, who specula ted away $4,000,000 of the deposi tors’ money while he was President of the Second National Bank, still resides in his mansion, No. 40 Park avenue. It is in the centra ot the Mock on the west side, between Thirty-sixth and Thirty-scventb streets, and is one of most impos ing structures on the avenue. The edifice is of brown stone; Ionian columns of the same material rear their massive fronts on cither side of the broad entrance. The sills of the parlor windows arc ornamented with banks ot flowers. A tiled vestibule leads into the carpeted corridor, the walls of which arc bung with rare paintings. To the left of the corridor is the drawing room, which Is divided into two sections by a central arch, from which hang heavy velvet curtains. The walls of tb« drawing-room have the appearance of-those of a pict ure gallery, so closely docs one nue and cosily painting bang to it* neighbor. A glance at the < ap> VIEW OP TARIFF REFORMERS. ALL AOREE THAT BLAINE CAN BE UKATEN WITH A UOOO MAN ON A nOOD PLATFORM. Northern Defenders of (he Koulli. Northern men and Northoi n capi tal aro so rapidly and largely lie- coming incorperatcd into the social and industrial system of the South, that very soon we shall find the defenders of this section of the Union from the aspersions of its enemies by no means confined to native Southerners alone. Indeed, it is already beginning to bo so. And the time is near at hand, we hope, when, wherever or however the Southern people may he cari catured ns they have been and ns they arc, there will lie fair minded and well-informed Northern men ready to exposo the misrepresenta tion with proof of its falsity derived from their own personal experience and observation. The South, is misrepresented in tho North, sometimes from a want of information, and sometimes with the deliberate purpose of keeping alive the prejudices of that section against this, for tho attainment of selfish ends at the expense of pa triotism, truth, justice, and welfare of this whole country. The masses ol the Northern pcoplo never read the newspapers of the South; they seldom bcc a Southern man, and they are taught by the Northern press to regard Southern sentiment as tho reverse of what it is. This state of things has gone on for years; but, at last, and fortunately for both sections, there is reason to hope lor a'change. Tho resour ces of tho South aro attracting Northern capital, and Northern capital brings along with it North ern men. These men see for them selves, and, having interests in tho South, they soon find, naturally, that in their Southern associations they have Southern sympathies, too. Thoy learn much of trutli and they unlearn much of falsehood as to tho characteristics of the South ern people. They soon become de fenders of the South. And they are the best defenders the South can have, tor they aro partial wit nesses made impartial by a removal of traditional prejudices and delu sions through the agency of their own intelligence pertinently ap plied in practical inquiry and ob servation. Tbcro have been Northern-born men conspicuous fortheir Southern- ism before the war, during tho war and sinco tho war. And with tho extensien of Northern interests and tiie increase of Northern settlers in tha South, it will be irore and more the fact that among the most ardent defenders of the Southern icoplc will be found tho just, the irave, nud tbc ingenious men who have como from tiie Northern into ing. the Southern States—Industrial prii South. Not a Satisfactory Platform. Tho New York Times, tiie lead ing Republican paper of the coun try, says that the “convention might have made it worse platform, for all things are possible under the sun, but we do not see in what way one could have been made much more ridiculous than this. If Mr. McKinley, of Ohio, and Mr. Charles Emory Smith, of Pennsylvania, be, as tha text of the platform indi cates, the authors of Ibis precious document, they are entitled to tbc credit of producing a more artisti cally absurd and insincere and senseless hodge-podge than has dis graced any party.” mil Re Reaten. Nsvv York Evening Po»l(Ucp.) Blaino is now the last prominent champion of the old system. Af ter he has been disposed of, as we confidently believe he will be this year, it will bare no one left who will bare any chance of party sup port. or for whom any worker will car* MiImm or Ut> Washington, June 0.—The beat en Republican candidates express dignified scquicscenco. Arthur, Edmunds, Gresham and Haw'cy say that they did not seek the honor and aro not at all disappointed. They predict tho success of the ticket. Tho Demooratie revenue reformers say that witli a good reve nue reform plank and a good can didate they will win,-with such a candidate for example as Bayard. The revenue reform leaders have all been interviewed. They ail say that they have no doubt of success it the Democrats will but act wise ly. The nomination of Logao is thought to strengthen the tioket in the West, bnt will not help Blaine in the East. Mr. Mon Ison said that Blaine would make a strong candidate in tho West; but that ho felt more hopeful of a Democratic vlotory •ban he had for a long time. The Republican nomination rendered it necessary for tho Democratic party to put its best foot foremost, and to nominate the best man on a plat form setting forth in unequivooal terms tho principles held by a ma jority of the parly. The Democratic platform must pronounce in favor ol revenuo reform so clearly and holdlv as to win for its candidate '.ho confidence of the people. Mr. Dorsheimer,of New York, thought it folly to underestimate the strength of the Republican ticket. Still it could bo beaten. In order to do this Hie Democratic party must make itself strong on tiie platform as well as in the can didate. An omphatio declaration in favor of revenue reform is abso lutely necessary to offset the Jug gling phrases of the Republican platform. Randall said that in order to suc ceed it would be necessary to meet the strong declaration for protec tion in the Chicago platform with a tariff plank which would give con fidence to tho bnsincss interests of the country. A free trade plsak would mean defeat. Upon a proper platform, a proper candidate could easily defeat Blaine. Speaker Carlisle regards Blaine’s nomination as a triumph of the worst elements of the Republican pirty,buttho strength of tho tioket among tho pcoplo must net lie un derrated. To defeat it a hard fight would be necessary, a fight made on prinaiple by men ol tho highest obaractcr. He said that the Demo cratic Conviction mast boldly anil directly declare in favor of revenuo reform, and nominato a man iu whom the majority of tho poopio would have implicit confidence. Such u candidate, on a fitting plat form, would cosily defeat tho nomi nees of the Republican party. Eaton, of Connection^ said that Blaine was a brilliant man who would mako a brilliant campaign, but that be would not have an un< divided support of his party, and if the Democrats acted wisely at Chi cago he would not bo elected. The Democrats must, however, give such assurances in regard to tailff revision as would givo tho peoples neat reform which would not endan- 5 er tho interests of American in- ustrics and American labor. Tho Republican Morale. Phllld.lpbls Tlmn (IuL) The vagueness and confusion of this mosaic platform would be ludicrous if it were not so distress- It is not a declaration of principles; it is simply a bid for votes, an attempt to promise every- thing to everybody—except those who only want good government and a wise and dignified national policy. For thcso tue platform contains only words. 8sn Francisco la Luck. At the April Drawing of The Louisiana State Lottery Company in New Orleans, Homer L. Bishop, of San Francisco, held one-fifth of ticket No. 58,298, which drew the Second Capital Prize of $25,000. This makes the fourth large prize drawn in that eity in two mouths.
