The New York Kepnbllcnns Prepared to Oct Down to Dirty Work New York, July 20.—Tlie Democratic camp is sorely troubled. Well-informed Democratic politicians are now commenc- Jim Currie is reported as on his way ing to give credence to the rumor that the to St. Louis, to have an interview with State legislature will be convened after , : r* . the October election, for the purpose of the Globc-Democral editor, whom ahead- gaging tbe method of select ingpresiden- line called 1dm “The hell-roaring Texas ~ “ desperado.” —Judge Long, whom the Ohio Demo- tial electors. It is admitted by several leading Republicans in the State that they are In favor of having such legislative ac tion taken as will efTect a permanent change in the manner of choosing presi dential electors, and it is said that the great Oneida chieftain is one of the strongest advocates of the proposed change. The Republicans argue that New York City controls the State, and in view of this it is only proper that some other system than the existing one should be introduced. The plan which meets with most favor is to choose electors by congressional dis tricts. If such a plan should be adopted it would be tlie means of giving half (or thereabouts) of the presidential electors in New York State to Garfield and Ar thur. Some are radical enough in their opinions to propose that the legislature, when convened, should appoint the elect ors, and abolish tbe system of choosing electors by the people. Democrats are greatly exercised over the situation, and vague but ominous threats are held out should the Republi cans endeavor to •‘subvert the will of the people.” It is urged by those who dis countenance the present method of voting for presidential electors that the legisla ture can constitutionally make any change it deems fit, and as tbe mode now in prac tice is not satisfactory, the statute should be repealed and a new law made. The constitution of tlie United States says “each State shall appoint, in such matter as the Legislature thereof may di rect, a number of electors,” etc. This is what the Republicans take their stand on, arguing that inasmuch as they have the power of directing the appointment of electors, they also have the appointment. The fact that electors were originally ap pointed by the legislatures in different States is strongly set forward as au argu ment in favor of abolishing tbe present system. Should the legislature in the States where both branches are Republi can decide to revert to the old system dj some other approaching it, the result wonldbe a decisive victor)' for Garfield and Arthur. Tune and circumstances will, however, tel! what is brewing in the rival camps.—Cincinnati Commercial. Picking Pockets on the Dome of St Peter’s. Professors of larceny are just now some what at a disadvantage in Rome, where the vigilance of tlie royal police appears to leave them but slender chance of practic ing that liberal art with comfort and im punity, even in the most out-of-the-way nooks and comers of the Eternal City. Deep underground, or high among the clouds, in the Calixtine Catacomb, or on St. Peter’s dome, the eye of the detective is ever on the watch for them, and sternly declines to wink at their nefarious deeds. Only the other day a Danish lady, having cl i mbed to tlie “bad eminence” of the galle ry that encircles the very crown of the huge Basilica’s ctipalo, was wrapt in contem plation of the wondrous panorama spread out beneath her feet, when an elegantly- dressed youth approached her with sym pathetic and well-chosen words of admi ration for the stupendous spectacle. A short conversation ensued, after which her interlocutor, deeply bowing, with drew. Some inexplicable inward impulse prompted the Scandinavian dame to feel in her pocket for her purse. It was gone, and there seemed no reasonable hope for its recovery. Instinctively, however, she set up a mournful cry of “A1 ladro!” when, loand behold! two elegant civil ians emerged from a secret ambush, and, hurrying down the gallery stair, caught the thief before he had reached terra Jir- ma, searched him on the spot, and, finding the pilfered purse in his possession, forth with conducted him to tlie lock-up. His discomfiture may be more easily con ceived than described. crats have nominated for secretary of State, is a very popular German lawyer. The ticket is said to be tlie strongest that could have been made. An Illinois girl with a breach of promise case testified that it was the usual thing for girls to show their love letters to fifteen or twenty other girls, in order to make them jealous. —The Governor-General of Canada will, it is thought, resign his post, in order to he separated less from his wife, the Frinccss Louise, who after visiting a Ger man watering-place will return to Eng land. 1 —The so-called bad lands of Minnesota turn out to be very good laud,-and settlers arc raising first-rate crops this season. A branch of the Northern Pacific railroad is penetrating the region, which is being rapidly settled. —The total number of paupers in Lon don exclusive of lunatics in asylums and 880 vagrants, of the last day of the sec ond week of June was 85,049, of whom 40,793 were in workhouses and 38,250 re ceiving outdoor relief. —The effect of tho expulsion of the Jesuits from France'is likely to promote their influence, inasmuch as it will so widely distribute them. Scarcely a day passes but we read that'a detachment of them has settled in some new field. —Louis J. Jennings, the London cor respondent of the New York World, pre dicts that Gladstone will use his majority in the House of Commons to reapportion parliamentary representation so as to make Conservative success impossible in the next election. —No harvest will ever again ho reaped in Eugiand, says tlie London Spectator, which will exempt farmers from the terri ble competition that American free-bold- ers can offer—competition which has scarcely begun and which will become sharper with every mile of railway laid down and every new ship built. —Dr. Tanner has a divorce 1 wife in Minnesota. This lady, or somebody in her confidence, says the theory that peo ple ate too much grew upon Dr. Tanner until it became a mania, and made him exceedingly disagreeable to his family. He tried to impress his theories upon his wife and she resented the experiment and left him. She was fend of good livin, and wanted three square meals a day. -Unless an astonishing amount of ly ing in print is going on, heptunite, the new discovery which makes fabrics im pervious to water, will work a revolution in domestic affairs. At the last exhibi tion it is said that elaborate hats treated with the preparation were dipped in wa ter without injury and a bottle of ink was emptied over thin silk without stain ing it, the ink and water rolling off in great drops like quicksilver. —This is the pen portrait that the Lon- don World draws of Mr. Charles Brad- laugh: He is a tall, stoutly-built man of forty-seven years. He has a square head and a broad, massive face. He is clean shaven. His upper lip is thick and deep. His utterance clear, measured and dis tinct, and when engaged in conversation he uses liis eyes with great effect, as if to impress one with every word he utters. The general expression of his counten ance is not pleasing. The Richest City op its Size.— Frankfort-on-the-Main, with a population of about 100,000, is reported to be the richest city of its size in the whole world. It is asserted that there are one hundred Frankforters worth from four to five mil lion dollars each, r.nd two hundred and fifty who arc worth one million dollars and upward. The city is one of the great banking centres of the globe. Its aggre gate hanking capital is estimated at two hundred million dollars—more than one- fourth of which the Rothschilds, whose original and parent house is there, own and control. —We noted the fact a day or two ago, says the Commercial Bulletin, that some three thousand Chinamen had been en gaged in'Nevada to do farm work, white bands being scarce. We observe now. that there is a an urgent demand for farm hands in California, which can only be met in the same way. The Sacramento Bee says the fanners would prefer white labor, but it is not to be had; whereupon the editor remarks with point: “If those who, proclaim ‘the Chinese must go’ so vociferously would only be willing to la bor and not leave so many avenues of em ployment open to the Mongols, their de parture might be expedited.” —A recent census of New Zealand has revealed the fact that the Maories are rapidly decreasing, and it is quite possible that a generation or so may fiud them ex terminated altogether. The causes given for this national decay are love of drink, had food and clothing, unwholesome dwellings, neglect of cleanliness, and generally low social habits. In 1SG1 the Maories were estimated to number 55,330, hut since then they have decreased to 43,- 595, .or about 20 per cent, in seventeen yeajp. The natives of Hawaii, however, arc showing a still more rapid destruc tion, for they have decreased from 67,125 in 1860 to 44,083 in 1878, or a^ the' rate of 23 per cent, in twelve years, or S2.4 .per cent, for seventeen years. 'In their case the mischief is hastened by the prevalence of leprosy. -r-The scheme to have tho New York legislature called together for the purpose of providing that electors shall be chosen by congressional districts, which was much discussed at one time, seems to be in process of revival. A New York dis patch to a Cincinnati paper states some what positively that the legislature will be called together immediately after the October election for this purpose, and that by the change the Republicans expect to secure at least one-half the electors in New York. There is no law to "prevent this, but it is very difficult to believe .that any such action is seriously contemplated by the Republicans. It would be a peril ous confession of weakness. ' It is assum ed thus early, with this movement iu con templation, that the October elections will on one supper; that Nero, master of “the turn out badly for the Republicans; that • House of Gold,” ate a dish which cost New York cannot be trusted, in spite of . over .£30,000, and drank a bumper still all tha boasts, and that somethin of tha more P recious - 11 u as^rted, farther, that an tut noasts, ana inat something of the Xg Emperor Veras treated twelve friends desperate character of this scheme will be to a feast which cost £46,000; and Seneca necessary to save Garfield. is responsible for tbe statement that Car Successful Tea Raising in Georgia. A Washington special to the World says: Tlie officials of the Agricultural Bureau are very much gratified at the progress in tea-raising in the South. A Mr. Jackson, who has -over thirty-five thousand tea- plants on his farm near Savannah, Ga., re cently sent to the commissioner of agri culture a tin box containing several sam ples of the tea raised on his farm. The Commissioner subsequently took the sam ples to New York and went incoguito to one of the largest tea establishments there, representing that he bad some tea to sell. An espertwas called in toexamine the tea and he pronounced it India tea worth 50 cents a pound. Commissioner Le Due Ihen had difficulty in convincing the expert that the tea was grown iuthis country and could be produced for one-third the price named. The tea is represented as being very palatable aud difficult to dis tinguish from the imported article. Pro vision having been made by Congress for the establishment of a tea farm, arrange ments are now making at the Agricultu ral Bureau looking to the selection of a place in South Carolina for the experi ment. There are constant applications to the bureau for tea plants, and it is ex pected that in a short time hundreds of thousands of plants will be growing in this country. The commissioner thinks that it is only a question of a short time when capitalists will begin to see the im mense profits to be realized from tea rais ing, and in a few years he expects that the United States will be producing as much tea and sugar as may be needed for home consumption. Roman Gluttony. With the Empire began that epoch of splendid gluttony, which has no parallel. The history of the Cajsars, with some ex ceptions, is tlie narrative of a continual orgie. Take the notorious group at ran dom—Commodus, Caligula, Tiberius, Ve ras, Viteilius, Nero, Heliogabalus, Domi- tian. These men spent their lives in a round of monstrous debaucheries. The day and the night, we are assured, were not long enough for their revels. Veras, the first to increase the number "of guests from nine to twelve, prolonged liis sup pers throughout the night. Nero sat at table from midday to midnight. Tibe rius spent two days and a night at the festive board. They had huge appetites —not only tlie gigantic Maximin, who de voured forty pounds ot flesh-meat and drank five gallons of wine at a meal, hut finical dandies, like Commodus, who ate even in Jlie hath; Viteilius, who ceased eating only while he slept; Domitian, who ate “out of his hand” to stay his stomach in tlie intervals of regular repast; Heliogabalus was pernaps tlie most elaborate, Vitei lius the most extravagant jn his daily fare. The latter squandered in seven months £7,000,000, chiefly on his table. The total staggers belief; but let us exam ine the figures on the other side. Tlie Roman epicure is reported to have paid £05 or so for a mullet; a brace of pigeons cost £1 12s. At an entertainment given to Viteilius by his brother, 2,000 of the rarest fish, and 7,000 of the most curious birds were served up. One individual spent £5,000 on a single disli, made of the tongues of the costliest, singing-birds. The Roman Ion vivant, supping on tlie brains of peacocks and pheasants, the tongues of nightingales, and the roes of the most delicate fishes, swallowed thousands of pounds at a meal; and we need only mul tiply the individual expense by the num ber of the guests to form a notion of the cost of a high-class dinner in the (lays of the Ca-sars. A suppef in the Apollo meant one or tWb thousand i thrown to tbe purveyors. Rut the Emperors were certainly the most reckless in the profligacies of the table. Seneca and Tacitus are among the authorities who tell'us that Heliogabalus spent £20,000 ligulaspent £80,000 on a supper. The mag nificence of the emperors was imitated, if not equalled by citizens, like the Api- cil, like iEsop, the actor and his son Clo- dius, like Vedius Follio, wlio fattened his : lampreys on the flesh of murdered slaves. These, we know, were brave days for tho players; but JEsop the comedian must have had a solid private fortune, for the Garrick of his age, the great Roscius, made but 50,000 pounds a year of his pro fession, an income which would hardly clear half a dozen barely decent suppere to illustrious patrons.—Tinsley's Maga zine. Mo re Filibustering. Halifax, N. S., July 2S.—Captain Williams, of the brigantine “Sarah Cai- ney,” at this port from Turks Island, re ports that shortly before lie sailed a Cub in insurgent general, with forty fol lowers, was landed at Turks Island by a mail steamer from Hayti, bound to New York. They had escaped from Cuba to Hayti in a small vessel, and were closely pursued by a Spanish man-of-war. While at that place their . money aud property were confiscated, and they were ordered by tbe Ilaytian authorities to leave. Tlie Cubans then got on board a mail steam' er, and were landed at Turks Island. Shortly after their landing there, a Span ish war vessel arrived and demanded the surrender of tlio Cubans, which the gov ernor of Turks Island refused. The af fair caused some excitement, and Captain Williams brought dispatches to tho naval authorities here, giving details concerning it. Foreign. London, July 2S.—A telegram from the governor of Bombay says Major Gen eral Primrose telegraphs to-day from Can- dabar as follows: General Burrows’ force is annihilated. We are going into the citadel. The Marquis of Harrington, in an nouncing tlie news in the House of Com mons, added: “General Phayre has been instructed to collect what forces he cau and march to Candaliar. I have tele graphed to Simla to send another brigade, if necessary. London, July 28.—The second day of the Goodwood meeting—tho race for the Lennox stakes was won by Count F. De Lagrange’s live-year-old chestnut horse, Phenix; P. Loriilard’s Parole was second, and Lord Stafford’s three-year-old brown coit Gil Bias last. Parole held about a neck ahead for about half the journey, when Phrenix romped homo easy. London, July 28.—In the Honso of Commons to-day the Marquis of Harring ton, secretary for India, announced tho receipt of a telegram from Bombay, which reports a terrible disaster in the annihilation of General Burrows’ brigade at Caudahar. No details are given. A St. Petersburg dispatch says, in relu- l ation of the report of the death of General Skobeioff at Noove-Krcmya, that it has received a dispatch from him reporting all well. Tlie B;lton cotton operatives, at their secret meeting on Monday night, resolved to continue work under protest, aud to renew the contracts terminated by notice already given, so as lo be prepared to take the first favorable opportunity to insist upon au advance in wages. A Constantinople dispatch says au ex traordinary cabinet council to-day, (Tues day,) completed the reply to the collective mote of tlie powers. In the evening the Sultan’s irade was issued, approving tlie text -of tlie reply. The minister of foreign afiairs then signed it and it was handed to the ambassadors the same evening. The reply, which is vigorously worded, is substantially the same as the previous version which was given as follows :* The treaty of Berlin merely expressed a wish for and authorized the powers to of fer mediation, not arbitration, and de clares that the decision of tlie recent con ference gives Greece more territory than protocol 13 of tlie treaty of Berlin indi cated, and that the proposed concession includes positions which it is impossible for Turkey to surrender. The reply was drawn up by Mussuras Pasha,who returned to Constantinople recently at the request of the Sultan. London, July 28.—A correspondent writes to the Ball Mall Gazette that, in view of the prospective antagonism be tween the House of Lords and the House of Commons concerning the compensation for disturbance iu Ireland bill, a commit tee has been formed to invite the co-opera tion of all Liberal associations of tlie United Kingdom for a demonstration of confidence in the government, for excit ing an expression of opinion in favor of abolishing the hereditary peerage and the creation of an elective Senate; for organizing a committee of electors in permanent session to guard against the possible calamity ot a return of the To ries to power; for agitatiug for the sup pression of parliamentary obstruction, by adopting the “cloture” or oilier summary process. The committee will meet early next week to arrange for public meetings tliroughout the kingdom .to support the above proposition. Several well known metropolitan Liberals will head the movement. London, July 27.—A return, published 1 in conn-ction with the hill introduced by Mr. Plimsoll before quitting Parliament for tlie better security of vessels with grain cat goes, shows that between the years 1873 and 1880, twenty-six steam ships, laden wholly or partially with grain, foundered at sea, and twenty-four were reported missing, aud during the same period, one hundred grain sailing vessels foundered, and 111 were reported miss ing. London, July 28.—The Minchester Guardian's London correspondent says the question is yet undetermined whether the House of Lords will reject the com pensation hill or amend it out of exist ence. Various suggestions for its amend ment are discussed, but it is probable that the determined course of Lord Grey aud liis friends will lead to an absolute rejec tion of the measure. Mr. Parnell reappeared in the House on Tuesday, after an absence believed to have been mainly to avoid final stages of the bill. After expressing the opinion that tlie hill ought to be rejected, he held himself alooi so that it might he under stood that lie regarded Abe bill as insuffi cient; but he took no steps to restrain his folioweis from voting, all of whom sup ported tlie government. The division on the bill was slightly disappointing to the official side of the Housej as seventy was the lowest majority that had been counted on for the measures. London, July 28.—The race for the Levant stakes for two year old colts and fillies was won by Loriilard’s Iroquois; Mr. Gretton's Isola Madre second, Mr. Curtis’ Camace third. Six ran. The race for the Findon stakes, for two year old colts and fillies, was won by Mr. Chaffin's “Wandering Nun”; Loriilard’s Iroquois second, and Count De'LaGrange’s Albion third. Five ran. The raco for the Draw ing-room stakes, for three year old colts and fillies, was won by Prince Saltakoil’s Mask; Loriilard’s Nereid second. London, Jnly 28.—A correspondent of tlie Manchester Guardian says there is no 1 truth in the report, published in the Paris Bappel, that Queen Victoria has written a letter to the Sultan of Turkey. After consideration of the evidence taken by the court of inquiry into the charge that a marker at Wimbledon was bribed to mark the target fqlsely in the contest for the “Olympic” prize on tlie 23d inst., application has been made to the author ities to try by court-martial Sergeant Marshman, of the marines. London, July 28.—It Is believed at the war office that Gen. Burrows’ force con sisted of E Battery of B Brigade of the Royal Horse Artillery, the third regiment of Sinde horse, the Poona horse, a detach ment of tbe Sixty-sixth foot (14 officers and 470 men), the First Bombay native infantry and the Nineteenth Bombay in fantry, making a total of about 2,700 men. The following is a Reuter’s dispatch announcing tlie defeat of tlie British: “Simla, July 28.—Gen. Burrows has been severely defeated by Avoob Khan, sus taining a great loss of life. His farces were dispersed and compelled to fly, being pursued three miles. They are now strag gling back to Caiffiahar in driblets. Two guns were lost. London, July 28.—In the House of! Commons, the Marquis of ' Harrington stated later that the government had re ceived farther advices from Afghanistan. | Gen.'Burrows’ brigaifc numbered between [•two and'three thousand men. The army under Ayoob Khan wasstronger than was expected", consisting of 12,000 men and thirty-six guns, well served. Strong re inforcements have been ordered to tho front, and it would perhaps be necessary to send troops from England. Lord Harrington confirmed the report that part of General Burrows’ force consisted of a battery of En glish artillery and a battalion of the Sixty- sixth British infantry. He said he did not know what force General Primrose had at Caudahar, independent of General Bur rows’ brigade. He thought it prohably was not over 1,200, hut when General , Burrows’ brigade was detached, some of ■ General Phayre’s troops were ordered to reinforce Caudahar. If this reinforce ment was effected, the force of General Primrose would perhaps exceed 2,000. Lord Harrington stated further that he bad received a dispatch from the Viceroy of India stating that Gen. Burrows has been severely defeated. Primrose lias va cated, his cantonments at Candaliar and retired to the citadel. Reinforcements are already on the way aud will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. Additional forces will be sent from India. It may be necessary to anticipate the usual relief from England. Another dispatch has also arrived from the governor of Bombay, who says: “We cau iurnisb for au emergency three bat teries, one regiment of British cavalry, one-half regiment of native cavalry, two regiments of British aud six regiments of native infantry, besides a battery and two battalions in Scinde.” General Phayre telegraplis: “Fragments of Burrows’ force are arriving at Candaliar.” Phayre had been conversiug.by telegraph with Prim rose, but the^wires are now cut. Phayre aud Sandemau propose to abandon the Nari line aud concentrate on )the Rolan pass route, unless strong reinforcements are immediately available. The Viceroy, replying to an inquiry as to what troops Burrows had, said; “Horse Artillery companies I and B, a company of sappers, six companies of the 00th, two squadrons of Sinde horse, one regiment of Bombay cavalry, and first and thirteenth native infantiy. Nothing more is.known. Telegraph is interrupted.’! Simla, July 2S.—Gen. Phayre has been ordered to concentrate his forces and advance to Caudahar immediately to sup port Gen. Primrose, and his line of com munication with the rear will he strength ened by the Bombay and Bengal troops, who have been ordered to march imme diately. Constantinople, July 28.—The Porte has declared its readiness to execute the Montenegrin convention in three weeks. The report of the presentation of the Turkish reply to the collective note to the ambassadors is confirmed. The Forte says it is impossible to surrender Jauina, Larissa and Mitzovo, and urges further negotiations. London, July 27.—The Manchester Guardian, in its commercial article this morning, says the leading feature of Tuesday’s market was the continued steady demand for India staples in mod erate quantities', and great inactivity in other departments. Tlie home demand was unimproved, and the market was very quiet. Trices were firm hut with no hardening tendency in any department. In the House of Commons this evening, Lord George Hamilton moved the re jection of the government’s proposal for an increase of the income tax. The motion was defeated by a vote of 230 to 94, many Conservatives voting with the govern ment. London, July 23.—The race for tlie Steward's cup was won by Mr. Crawford’s Elfkiug, L-ird Haskin’s hack Tliorpc sec ond, Tenhroecke’s Veto second. Twen ty-eight ran. The race for the Sussex stakes was won by Prince SoltykofTs colt, Mask; Loid Falmouth’s Apollo second, Lord Brad ford’s Zealot third. Six ran. The Paper Monopolists. Saratoga, July 28.—Tho American Paper Makers’ Association began its third annual session at tlie Grand Union Hotel, at 11 o’clock this morning. About one hundred members were present. Tho president, Win. Whiting, of Holyoke, be ing absent, Wellington Smith, of Lee, Massachusetts, first vice president, took the chair and, before reading the call, made a few remarks on the present con dition of the paper trade. He said the advance in the price of paper since their last meeting had come from the extraor dinary demand for paper caused by the general prosperous condition of tliw coun try, which had stimulated production and this in turn had caused a great rise in pa per stock and chemicals used in its man ufacture, which had increased the cost of making paper more than the rise in prices. He stigmatized tlie attacks on the paper manufacturers for this rise, as malicious and uncalled-for. They had said that tlie rise was caused by combinations, and de manded a reduction of tbe tariff on wood pulp. The paper manufacturers had been glad of an opportunity to present the facts to Congress, and thus justified themselves. The advance in paper had not been nearly as much as it had been on iron; if Congress goes into a general revision of tbe tarifi, paper makers will readily share with other manufacturers in such reductions of duties as may he deemed necessary. The introduction of wood pulp has caused an unprecedented reduction in tho price of news paper. Home competition will soon reduce prices. Reports from divisions were then called for, but none were forthcoming. Saratoga, July 28.—In the paper makers’ convention, Mr. Woolwortb, of New York, read an article upon the ex port trade in paper, in tlie course of which he said the value of paper exported from America had increased lrom §4,000 in 1809 to $810,000 in 1879, and he believed it would reach $1,250,000 thi3 year. A long discussion followed as to the expe diency ol a mutual agreement on tlie part of paper manufacturers to suspend the manufacture of paper at certain stated times, in order to avoid tho overstocking of the market and the consequent lower ing of prices. A committee was appointed to consider tins question, and at the after noon session they reported in iaror of the shutting down of all paper mills from Saturday night until Monday morning in cadi week. The report was adopted and a copy ordered sent to every manufacturer in the United States. The New York Ratification Meeting. New York, July 28.—The Democratic campaign in this S ate was formally opened to-night by a very largely attend ed ratification meeting at the Academy of Music, over which Hon. Samuel J. Til- den presided. Mr. Tildeu was enthusias tically applauded, and on taking the chair said: “I thank you, my fellow citizens, for the cordiality of this greeting. I have come down this evening from my country home to join with you in expressing and declaring the purpose of the Democracy, of New York to sustain the nomination of Hancock. I have come under tlie stipulation of your committee that in con sequence of my liorsencss of voice I shall not be expected to speak. What I have to say, therefore, will be but briefly to touch upon two points. The welfare of the people oi tlie United States demands a change in the administration oi the Fed eral government. Reform is necessary to remove the abuses which have grown up during twenty years of continuous power, prolific of false principles and bad coun sels. The Republican party, stifling its conscience, has made itself responsible for the intrusion, under color of law, into the chief magistracy of our great republic of fifty millions of people of a man who was not elected by tbe people. They hare set an example, which unless condemucd by the people and signally condemned too, will subvert the elective system of government of which we are so proud, and substitute in Us place the rule and dynasty of officers holding over against the will ot the people. The complete overthrow of the Republican party in the election of 1880 grill be a retributive judgment, and will prevent the repetition hereafter of the crime of 1870 against the sovereignty of the people. I congratulate you upon the nomination and tlie aus picious prospects of success I see in every quarter. And now we will proceed to the order of business of the meeting.” Here Mr. Tildeu sat down and the ap plause vss loud ahdj long continued. During his brief address he was frequently cheered. Letters expressing regret at inability to attend were received from Gen eral McClellan, Horatio Seymour, Gov ernor Robinson, Senator Kernan, Amasa J. Parker, J. Proctor Knott, Senator Ea ton, Henry Watterson, Fernando Wood, Smith M. Weed, William Dorsheimer, Congressmen Springer, Sparks and War ner, and other prominent Democrats. S. J. Randall was the first speaker. In the coarse of his remarks he commended the Eaton tariff commission bill, which had passed the Senate, aud' would surely be acted on by the House next December. He added: “I want in this connection to say a few words to the manufacturers of the coun try, and to assure them that they need have no apprehension of injury to their interests in this connection. The highest annual yield from customs duties during and since the war was over$210,000,000— in 1872. The amount necessary now is generally returned at $135,000,000, and I assert that this amount cannot ho raised in an intelligent and business-like man ner upon articles imported which come in competition with light articles manufac tured in this country, without giviug ado quate protection to our industries. There may be exceptional industries which may require greater care, but they are few. The iron interests of Pennsylvania were not injured by the bill known as the “Wood tariff bill,” as I kuov’, either in tbe rate3 of duty, or manner of its assess ment, or in the classification of duty. The truth is that the public debt, and the payment of its principal and interest, is a safeguard to our industries. Free trade is impracticable in our present financial condition.” Convention of Agricultural Chemists. Washington, July 28.—The conven tion of agricultural chemists ipet here to day to deteiiuinc upon a uniform plan for analyzing superphosphates. Gen. J. T. Henderson, commissioner of agriculture of Georgia, presided. C. A. Ledoux, State chemist of North Carolina was secretary. Delegates from Delaware, Connecticut, Maryland, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and the District of Columbia were present. fijThc convention adopted, provisionally, Fresenius, Newhaur and Luck's method for the determination of phosphoric acids in commercial manures, coupled with the decision that tlie determination of the “re duced” should be indirect and gravemet- ric instead of volumetric. It also decided to appoint a committee to prepare on the above basis a detailed plan for the treat ment of commercial manures, and to dis tribute this plan among those interested After these questions had been dis posed of t\je convention organized perma nently as a branch of tho American asso ciation for the advancement of social sci ence. C. A. Gossinean, of Amherst, was chosen president, and A. R. Ledoux, of North Caroliua, corresponding secretary, when the convention adjourned, subject to the call of the parent association. The Prince Imperial’s Death Strug gle. London, July 2S.—Brigadier-General Sir Evelyn Wood, who accompanied ex- Etnpress Eugenie to Zuluiand, has sent to the papers a description of the death of the Prince Imperial, collected from inde pendent narratives of eighteen of the Zulus who participated in the attack upon the prince’s party. These narratives show that the attacking party numbered 40, twelve of whom followed the prince, eight of them being immediately con cerned in his death. Tlie Zulus, having nearly surrounded the prince’s party, fired and rushed on them as they were mounting. The prince, not liaviug succeeded in mounting, ran alongside his horse until it broke away. The prince followed his horse into the donga until, being closely pressed by liis nursuers, lie turned upon them, in tlie words of tlie Zulus, “like a lion at hay.” Being struck by an assegai inside the left shoulder, he rushed at his nearest oppo nent, who fled. Another Zulu then fired at the prince when only fifteen yards from him. Tiie prince fired Ins pistol, and faced his rapidly increasing foes un til, menaced from his right and rear, and struck by another assegai, he regained the level on which he had first stood in the donga, where he was speedily surrounded. He seized an assegai, which had been thrown at him (iu struggling with his terrified horse his sword had fallen from its scabbard) and with this assegai de fended liiuiself against seven or eight Zu lus, who state that they did not dare to close on him until he sank exhausted on his hip. The above facts were elicited from Zu lus who were examined separately on the scene of the attack. It may be remem bered that this is the first correct descrip tion of the affair that has been published. London, July 2S.—The Marquis of Harrington, in the nouse of Commons to day, said: “Gen. Phayre’s relieving force will concentrate at Chaman. As the on ly news respecting Gen. Burrows’ expedi tion has been telegraphic, I am unable to give details of his force, but believe it consisted of one brigade, tlie composition of which and the number of men are unknown.” London, July 2S.—General Burrows’ brigade was detached from the Caudahar garrison to co-operate with Shore Ali, whom the British appointed WaliOf Cau- dahar, against Ayooo Khan, aspirant to the Ainecrship. When Shere Ali or dered his forces to retire towards Girishk, his infantry deserted in a body, but were pursued by General Burrows, who recov ered the guns and wagons they bad ear ned off'. Weakened by the desertion of Shere All’s infantry, General Burrows ef fected a retrograde movement to Kushk- iuakud, thirteen miles nearer Candaliar. Ayoob Khan’s forces reached Helinond river above Girishk, and spies reported that he ha-l crossed that river at Hydera bad, and that 4,000 Ghazis had joined him, while parties of his cavalry were for aging near the British camp. It would seem as if the Indian govern ment had felt some misgivings with re gard to Gen. Burrows’ position for a fort night. A reserve division in Scinde was placed under orders for active service. The division comprises a battery of artillery, one battalion of British and two regiments of native cavalry. By moving this force quickly to the front, the Quettah and Peshawur contingents can be relieved for ac tive duty under General Phayre. Ayoob Khan’s forces will doubtless make a rush on Candaliar, but as the recent crop re ports are very satisfactory, the garrison will probably be well provisioned. Cha man, where General Phayre’s force will concentrate, is about ninety miles from Candaliar. The governor of Bombay, in a telegram, says: “Wo can send another brigade if necessary.” News Items. Danville, Va., July 2S.—In Patrick county, last Friday, Pmk DeHart met Amos Wolvine on the road on horseback with Mrs. DeHart behind him. An alter cation ensued between the two men, end ing by DeHart’s shooting Wolvine with a revolver through the forehead and neck, killing him instantly. DeHart then pro ceeded to Patrick Court nouse and surren dered himself to tbe officers of the law. Improper relations between Wolvine and DeHart’s wife have been heretofore sus pected by DeHart. St. Louis, July 28.—The Democrats of the sixth district in convention at Joplin to-day nominated J. R. Waddill for re- election to Congress. Death From Hydrophobia. Harrisburg, July 28.—Capt. James H. Stanley, a prominent citizen of Mid dleton, this county, died last night from hydrophobia. When the symptoms first became manifest last Sunday he bade his frieuds good-bye and submitted himself to the care of liis keepers, but on Monday, during violent spasms, escaped and was found subsequently in th« suburbs, biting at everything within his reach. The de ceased was [bitten by his own dog about five weeks ago. A (JAH1).

A doctor of York named Tanner, Upraised the starvation banner, He said he was able, To abstain from tlie table, And eat not even a banana. He took his last dinner and started, Shookliatids with the cook, who departed; He tightened his belt, And said that he felt, Just as though -he could never he thwarted. Many days have now passed. Not a min now Has gone down the throat of this sinner, But liis stomach is slack, And tlie sway in liis back, Shows he gets thinner aud thinner. —The Norristown Herald informs us that “in New York they have another brain-distracting puzzle. They take Rev. Mr. Beecher’s last two sermons explain ing his belief, and after reading each one try to guess what his belief really is. No one has yet succeeded in solving the puzzle and eminent scholars say it can’t be done.” —Trade is looking better on the Pacific coast. The San Francisco Commercial Herald of the 15th says tlie jobbers are busy, and, with the certainty of an abun dant liarvast, a brisk fall business is con fidently anticipated. As a single illustra tion of the prevailing feeling, it may he mentioned that farmers are increasing their orders for grain hags 15 to 20 per cent, while last year quite the reverse was the case. —The most influential German paper in Northern Ohio, tlie Cleveland Wacliter am Erie, has abandoned the Republican party and come out for Hancock and En glish. So has tho Pittsburg Volksblatt. Tho German vote is the only thing which has saved Ohio to the Republicans for the last four or five years, the conservative and property-holding sous of Fatherland having no sympathy with the “Ohio idea” in finance. Wilt. Planters Hold Their Cot ton.—A noticeable feature of our con tract market last year was the large sales of futnres by planters who were covered by their own crops. There have been very few such sales this year, farmers be ing dissatisfied with the ruling rates for new-crop contracts, aud being abundantly able to hold their cotton, in consequence of the high price obtained Jast year. A New York broker who recently returned from Arkansas says that iu that State, at least, new cotton will come in slowly, and that, if present prices continue, an unu sually large proportion of the cotton will he held by the farmers until spring. Th ! s broker thinks that, even in Arkansas, cot ton cannot be raised lor less than 94 cents a pound. Cotton Vicissitudes.—In his “his tory of cotton,” Mr. E. J. Donnell says: “On the 12th of September, 1840,1 first visited a cotton plantation, and learned something of the vicissitudes to which the cotton plant is subject. I then heard from tlie planter that tho crop was ex ceedingly promising until the last week in August. Ou the 20th of August he considered It past all danger; and, to use his own words, lie would not have given ten dollars to have his crop guaranteed. Within three days one-fourth of it was entirely destroyed. The result proved that this was general throughout the whole cotton-growing country. The crop, showed a falling off from the previous one of about one-fourth.” The crop now maturing in the field seems to us in a fair way to illustrate some of- the vicissi tudes of the cotton crop. —An English writer says that the fash ions of England and Paris have little in common just now. The English tenden cy to abolish distinction of sex in respect to costume has never been received in France with great acclamation. If anything public taste in Paris has veered towards adopting female fashions in men's cos tume, but the reverse has been ignored by the graceful Parisienne who has preferred to keep within tlie boundaries of her owui special domain rather than to poach on the preserves of her neighbor—man. The willingness to unsex themselves in the matter of costume has brought on the English women severe censure in the Spectator, wherein their appearance is said to suggest the “solid, hard tightness of the little wooden figures out of a Noah’s ark.” The ulster, small linen collar and Derby hat’are certainly not garments which offer any positive indica tion as to sex—hence, argues the Specta tor, they are uufit for female wear. —A difference of opinion exists among European engineers in regard to the prac ticability of establishing a sea, as now proposed, in tlie great Sahara, the chief problem being, it would seem, how to keep it up. It is argued that, supposing the sea to be created by means of a canal, it will lose an cuormous quantity of wa ter by evaporation every day, without an introduction of an equal volume of fresh water. The water evaporated being re placed by a supply coming through tliq canal, the whole body will soon reach the maximum of saturation; and thus, the evaporation still continuing, a deposit of salt will be formed which in time, must fill up the whole space of the interior sea —the salinity of the water being such that no animal life would be possible in it, and the ultimate result being simply the accumulation of an immense deposit of salt. On the other hand, the projec tors of the enterprise claim that the pres ence of this water, aud its evaporation, must produce copious rains, which will in large measure return into the sea, and thus not only accomplish the object refer red to, but also convert a sterile waste in to a fertile country. An Accession in Pittsburg.—On Sunday last tho announcement was made public in Pittsburg, that Colonel Henry B. Hayes, who has been a lifelong Repub lican, had espoused tbe cause of General Hancock. Colonel Hayes is one of the wealthiest coal operators in thePennsy.- vania bituminous region, and is known at all points along the Ohio river as a man of great liberality. He has stood in the foremost rank of the Republican lead ers in Allegheny county and has always contributed largely of his means to insure the success of the Republican ticket in times past. He says, however, that he will open an extra barrel for tlie hero of Gettysburg. He was at one time secre tary of the legation to Denmatk, and has a gallant war record. His change of po litical faith will have a great effect upon the thousands of coal miners, who have always looked up to him as a leader and a guide in matters political. The an nouncement of bis allegiance to General Hancock fell' like a chilling frost on the Republican party here, and as lie is a man of irreproachable record and commands the respect of all classes, they have not presumed to express any opinion in the matter, but are waiting apathetically to aee who the next convert will be. “Now is the'Winter of Our Discon-' tent Made Glorious Summer.” Our Keinoval au Accomplished Fact. Farewell! Farewell! to Oun Old Contracted Quarters — Wel come the New and Spacious Double Store. After four long years of cramp and in convenience in a store not one-lialf large enough for our business, it is with ex treme pleasure and satisfaction that we now announce cur change to larger and more desirable quarters. June 15ili we broke camp and for two long and back ache provoking weeks we, with our entire force, together with a squad of conscripted corps iTA/rique have been on the “tote.” We moved in on cur friend the wholesale grocer and he came in on us. Groceries and music, soap aud pianos, Moliawk whisky and Jewsharps, hams aud banjos, butter and fiddle strings, kerosene and “Scena dor Freieliutz” music, lard and flour became so indescribably mixed for a few days that we hardly knew wliat trade we were in. Carpenters,-plasterers and painters joined in the lracas. AU business was suspended and General Chaos took commaud and run the campaign as he pleased. Only those who have been through the delightful and ever-to-be-remembered experiences of changing base, with an im mense stock aud fitting up the new place after getting in, can appreciate the trials we liavejust passed through. Tlie ordinary work of three months doesn’t begin to equal one moving. But mind and muscle have finally triumphed over matter and at this writing (July 1st) comparative order once more prevails. We have our stock iu shape and begin to feel at home, but it will be yet another month ere we shall complete the improvements in view and put on the handsome outward appearance that a first class music temple should have. Meanwhile we are prepared to at tend to our trade and make up for the unavoidable neglect of the past two weeks. We are filling up with a magnifi cent new stock and for fall trade shall he able to offer greater inducements tliau in any previous year. In our next issue we will present a detailed description of our new store and stock, aud until then we will only say that w« find ourselves fairly lost with so much space aud are daily re ceiving congratulations of citizens on our change. “j ust the place for you and that your business demands,” is tlie general expression oi all, and what everybody says must be so.
