Y. World. * In the gray dawn of election day about three hundred express wagons rattled over the pavements of New York, carrying lit tle Punch and-Jady boxes to the election precincts. As the Ucket-peddlers are not allowed close to the polling places, these stalls had to be furnished by the candi dates for office, that their workers might be on the spot. To accommodate the sev eral parties and factions required about five booths in each election district, which made a total of 3 50) for the city, and at $5apiece, the cost was $17,800. Around these were gathered the party workers who numbered twenty-five for each box, making a total of 17,800 men. They got $5 apiece, which called for $89,000 for the*r services alone. Wien they found an un decided man they did not lead him nnder a tr ie and talk him to death, but took him directly to the nearest saloon and gave him all he wanted to drink, The good man was grateful and did as he was di- vtsttdj bat the heeler tow on candi dates for the money expended. Fifty dol lars was not a very big roll yesterday, and supposing that each of the 17.800 workers had that much, the total food was $890,. 000. Each worker had a handful of ballots, and it was estimated that the coet expended about $1,000 for personal tick ets to be distributed at the polls. The combined candidates had to meet the fol lowing personal expenses: Boxes for ticket peddlers .*. $17,801 Services of workers -... 89,001 Fund for the heelers 800,001 Cost of printing tickets 230,oot This wss the cost of the go-as-you-please ace of Republicans, Democrats. Bntler- troller, alderman, . trict-attorney, civil justice or Assembly man. Each candidate was in the hands of his friends, who spent his money for him, and his only trouble was drawing checks when the several committees made their demands. The expense varied great ly for the several candidates, being great est for mayor. Congressman, comptroller and jndge. It is said that Grace and Grant were called upon for about $100,000 each and OthhJ for $15,000. The Judges of the Court of Common Pleas were as sessed $50 for each election district, and there are seventy-seven in some Congres sional districts, making an item of $3,850. which some had to pay to one faction of their party. If the County Democracy bad the most power in a particular dis trict they assessed the candidate for Con gress very heavily, Tammany being con tented with less and Irving Hall with still less. The same was true of the Republi can factions, and this money was placed by committees of these several org mira tions in the hands of trusted workers who used it to the best advantage. Tbo print ing bills were paid by the candidates in person, or by their right hand men, who hsd charge of the canvass for them. The boxes were paid for by the party or faction interested, bat with money collected from the candidates. Assembly aspirants paid about $400 into the general expense fund, and aldermen paid the same, except the would be presidents of the aldermanlc board, who were assessed $1,000. The pri vate expenses incurred by these minor candidates in dinners and other favors were also great, so that few escaped with leas than 92000 expenditure.

LAWYERS' MORALS. Legal Gentlemen Should nor L?e nor 8ell their Brnlna to Defend injjatice. NoTembcr Century. 1. A lawyer ought to a gentleman. His function as an attorney gives him no dispensation to disregard the ordinary rales of good manners/and the ordinary principles of decency and honor. • He has no right to slander bis neighbor, even If his neighbor b£ the defendant in a cause in which he appears for plaintiff. He has no right to pally or brow-beat a witness in a cross-exsminatlon, or artfully to en trap thgf witness into giving false t< mony. Whatever the privilege of the court may be, the lawyer who is gallty of such practices in court Is no gentleman out of coart. 2. A lawyer onght not to lie. He may defend a criminal whom ne knows to be guilty, bat he may not say to the jury that ue believes this criminal to be inno cent. lie may not in any way intention ally convey to the jury the impression that he believes the man to be innocent. He may not, in his plea, pervert or distort Uia evidence ao as to weaken the force or conceal the meaning of lL He is a sworn officer of the court, and his oath shonld bind him to the strictest veracity. It would be qnixotlc to expect him to assist his adversary, bat his obligation to speak the truth outranks every obligation that be owes to his client. It is notorious that some lawyers who think it scandalous to tell a falsehood oat of court in any busi ness transaction lie shamelessly in court in behalf of their clients, ana seem to think it a part of their professional daty. That bar of jnstice before which by their professional obligations they are bound to the most stringent truthfulness is the very place where they seem to consider them- i(4res absolved from the common, law of veracity. So long »s the legal mind is in fected with this deadly heresy we need uot wonder that our courts of jnstice of ten become the instruments of unright- eooanesa. 3. A lawyer ought not to sell his ser vice for the promotion of injustice and knavery. Swindlers of all types are aid ed by lawyers in their depredations upon society. The mock broker who operates in Wall street, and strips green country speculators of their hard-earned gains by the most nefarious roguery, always has an able lawyer a* an accomplice. The S ntieman by whose agency a nest of eso rascals was broken up says: “The great difficulty in stopping swindles of this class is that the rascals make enough money to be able to employ the best of legal advice, and are. moreover, carefnl to do nothing which will render them liable to arrest.” This is the testimony of a lawyer, Mr. Ralph Oakley, of New York. ■ I'll- !»■--: «.f legal a-lviiv" <\m lit* ha-1 in Nfw York i';ty for Mich pu poM**.

There’s the conductor on top of the train passing signals with his hinds to the engineer. The engineer don’t want to kill anybody, but he can’t see the whole length of the train, and it’s hard to tell by the motion of a man’s hand jast how much more to back. The brake- man gets in between the cars, hoJdiug a pin in one hand and waiting to lift the link with tbo other. Along comes the train like the hammers of hades; the draw-bar gives way, retreats clear to the head, or the brakeman loses his footing in the shock. They carry him home, tell his folks that Johnny got killed on the road, and get another brakeman. Then in the winter there’s ice and snow- on top of the cars. Everything lssl : pnery, and it's awful easy to miss a step and go down between the cars. Overhead bridges break a good many heads, too. It.s dan gerous work, and wo get prid $1.85 for ten nonra’ work. It co9ts a brakeman $39 a year for $1,009 life Insurance, and about six times wbat it would cost yon. In some parts of the country the brakemen have associations, and when one gets killed the association pays his widow or his mother or his sister $2,000. There is no associa tion like tha* here. I wish there wa\ or that the companies had to pay for ns. The only coupler that will ever catch them will bs one that saves money. That may sound roug bat it’s God's trath. Get np a coupler that doesn’t cost much more than a link and a pin and doesn't lose pins, and yon’li have ’em. L«t me tell you why. The average loss of pln9 Is five a year to each freight car. Boys steal ’em for jnnk. and they get Inst in a hundred ways. Pins cost GO cents each; That’s $3 a car per year. There are nearly 1,000,000 freight cars in this country. That’s $3,- 000,000 worih of pins lost every year. Looks big, don’t it? Well, knock off a third for pins that are recovered and yon •till have a sum worth saving. Show the railroads a* self-coupler that doesn’t cost more than $5 at the most, and saves pin:, and the brakeman will get a better show for his life than seven chances in eight. An Eccentrto Lord. London Letter in San Francisco Chronicle. As might be expected the aristocracy yields a fine harvest of cranks. Just at present Lord Savernaks is exciting a good deal of attention by reason of his extrava - gances and his eccentricities. This youth tia-< only yi't nun* of Hg». an l is the grandson and heir of the wealthy Marquis of Aylesbjry. Lord SavernaKe drives about the west end of London in a coster monger’s barrow drawn by a fa3t trotting donkey. The barrow is highly ornament ed with brasswork, and the donkey carries a very handsome set of harness, liis lord- get-up, as I saw him driving down Church street and Marylebone the other day was .-imply a ariniug. Hi* wore a long, light coat buttoned tight!}' down the front, and adorned fl am moderate in my computation) by at least a hundred pearl buttons. His trousers, which were ue tight as they could bosslblv be made down to the ankles, terminated in miniature balloons, well nigh hiding the patent leath er boots, which were also studded all over with pearl buttons. These wonderful trousers boro triple dark stripes on a fawn- colored ground, and on the bottoms the ‘ pearlies" again figured prominently. A few evenings ago I had occasion to visit the Marylebone theater, one of the minor low-priced houses, and there I again en countered hts lordship.
