The Real Cause of the Laic Panic.
Our learned neighbor, the Tribune ,
fives four dire t and one indirect cause
for the recent Wall street panic. We do
not think they are sound.
“Finally, there has been some dis
honesty and recklessness,” says our
learned contentnotary,..with- more re
spect for truth than for grammar.
Dishonesty anil recklessness have
Steen IhA true causes of our troubles;
[dishonesty in public and private life;
recklessness in the mad pursuit of
wealth and in the methods resorted to
for its accumulation.
The shoddy fortunes made during
the war inaugurated an aristocracy of
money bags. Everybody wanted to be
long to it and to outshine his neighbor.
Grant as President, eager for money,
took presents. The members of his
Cabinet, eager for money, took bribes.
His private secretary entered into a
gantr of Government thieves.
Congress bestowed 29b,000,000 acres
of the public lauds on railroad corpor
ations and the Congressional saints
grew rich.
Jay Gould, Huntington and other
great operators took their lobby to
Washington and scattered wealth among
the National legislators.
Gould, Fisk and Corbin gave the
President’s household a practical illus
tration of the value of a rise in gold in
the form of a twenty-five thousand dol
lar check, and out of this grew lijack
Friday.
Credit Mobilier came along and
Oakes Ames gathered in his Vice-Presi
dents and Congressmen at comparative
ly low prices.
With Grant’s second term came the
increase of his pay to fifty thousand
dollars, the salary-grab game and back
pay to Congress.
The disgusted people elected Mr.
Tilden President, but the Republicans
refused to go. By the aid of fraud and
forgery they stole the Presidency for
Hayes, and Hayes rewarded the thieves
with public ottices in which they could
plunder the people.
Then came another election. The
chances of the Republicans were des
perate. The corporations, monopolies
and banks, favored by the party, raised
a corruption fund to buy Indiana. The
speculators raised four hundred thou
sand dollars to the fund on the pledge
of Supreme Court Judgeships for their
tools. The army of office-holders was
assessed. The election was bought.
Arthur, then Vice-President, after the
purchase banqueted Dorsey, its princi
pal man pulator, and publicly extolled
the power and efficiency of “soap ”
Garfield became President* He
cheated those to whom he had pledged
patronage. Some of them branded
him as a cheat. One of them assassi
nated him.
The Star-route robberies, among
other public crimes, came to the sur
face. The robbers were indicted.
Through a bogus prosecution they es
caped. To reward the unsuccessful
prosecuting counsel the Treasury was
further plundered.
Is it surprising that with these ex
ample, at the head of the Government,
corruption, greed, dishonor ami a de
'rmination to make wealth bv dishon
,t means should spread among the
lople?
When Grant stepped from the Presi
.ency into a swindling broker’s office,
which obtained money from victims on
false pretenses, which sought to im
press the belief in its solvency upon its
customers by pretending to be inter
ested in heavy Government contracts,
and which used securities intrusted to
its keep ng—is it any wonder that the
Fishes, Enos, Dodds, Hatches and
Seneys came into existence?
The true cause of tno panic is easily
traced. There were venality, prodigality
an I dishonesty at the head of the Na
tion. Gift-taking, bribe-taking and dis
honesty prevailed at the White House.
The Presidency was stolen. High odi
ce rs of the Government boasted of their
election through the power of “soap.”
The President was murdered by a disap- ,
po'ntrd spoils hunter. Public robbers
were protected by the Administration.
Grant descended from the seat of Wash
ington into the seat of a Wall street
shyster’s “full” partner, from leading
armies to stock-gambling. Monopolists
enriehe i by Congress, in their turn en
riched Presidents, ( ongressmeu and
Judges. The demoralized people rushed
into wild speculations, Values were
in ate l by fraud and trickery. Then
[came the inevitable smash, and when it
; was approaching men stole and swindled
in the desperate attempt to save their
money.
The cause of the panic is plain. What
Bless folly to attribute it to the tar
ie Silver bill, the election and the
teued lambs!—A r . F. World.
“Wait Till We Get In.”
lere js really no difference of opin-
H >on among Democrats as to the propri
.■ rty and importance of a reduction of
t e tariff. All who are true to the fa
mili tr Dcrnoc atic doctrine, “the great
y est good to tlio greate -t number,’’.agree

New York and the Presidency.
Beyond nil dispute or cavil, the most
vital question now before the people of
the United States is, Who shall be our
next President? It is a problem that
profoundly concerns every citizen, no
matter what his station in iife. It is a
question which the people have it in
their power to answer for themselves,
no matter what the professional politi
cians may think or do. It is a ques
tion so pregnant with good or ill, ac
cording to the way in which it will be
solved, that it inav wcgl claim prayerful
consideration on the Sabbath as well as
earnest thought on the other six days
of the week.
Our Federal Government sadly needs,
purification. It can be purified only by
a sweeping change of men and methods.
Honesty, economy and patriotic intelli
gence are the foundation stones on
which alone good government can rest,
and flourish. After four-anil-twenty
years of prodigal waste and corrupt fa
voritism, we are now beginning to com
prehend the.depression and disturbance
of normal functions, which inevitably
follow a debauch in the community as,
in the individual. We are paying the
penalty of feverish extravagance and
class legislation, and a thorough cure
can be effected only by electing a Dem
ocratic President.
Several months ago the Star, after an
exhaustive survey of the field, con
tended that the Presidential campaign,
of 1884 would be decided by the vote
of New York State. Although the pre
diction was ridiculed by some persons at
the outset, its accuracy is now appre
ciated and admitted by leading poli
ticians and newspapers of all parties.,
“ As goes the Empire State, so goes the
Union,” is no mere empty boast, but a
confessed truism in politics. What
candidate can carry New York? is a
query discussed by Republicans as anx
iously as by Democrats.
The eyes of the country are fixed ex
pectantly upon New Y r ork. With a good
platform and a popular ticket, our State
may always be relied upon to go Demo
cratic. During many years past our
party’s strength has becu frittered away
in factious broils and selfish schemes.
If the various fa lions will now sink
their differences in a common aspira
tion for the country’s good, and will
cordially unite on any deserving candi
date, their choice will be morally cer
tain not only of being indorsed at Chi
cago. but of securing a decisive election.
Should Mr. Tilden consent to run,
there is scar cly any room to doubt
that the old ticket of 187f>—for his nom
ination must logically involve that of
Mr. Hendricks—would sweep the coun
try as irresistibly as a praire tire, lint
should Mr. Tilden persist in his present
attitude of unwillingness to risk the ex
citement, then the New York Democ
racy must fix upon another standard
bearer who will be acceptable to all
wings of the party. Their choice need
not be as widely known as Tilden, yet,
he must be a man of statesmanlike
views and high character. The t-tar
lias no candidate of its own to groom or
boom; but there arc many steadfast,
able and honorable Democrats in this
State who possess the qualifications
described, and upon one of whom the
party might readily unite.—AT. Y. Star.
Some Oracular Utterances.
We hardly lie il to remind our read
ers of the fact that the Admnistration
which came to a welcome close upon
March 4, 1881, was a bastard Adminis
tration, having no legitimate right to
perform executive functions and exist
ing during ine allotted period through
fraud and theft by the leaders of the
Republican party, and through ti e suf
ferance of the Democratic party. Still,
the form and state of the office and its
attachments were appropriated as fully
as though tho people had given tnc ar
rangement the seal of their approval.
The fraudulent Administration had a
Ministry, a Cabinet, the head of which
was an eminent lawyer, who likes some
times to jose as a refoimer, notwith
standing the incongruity of such pos -
tion when his antecedents a’e taken in
to account. Be lias just delivered him
self of some periods whoso length is in
inverse ratio to his own. as is common
when he opens his mouth or grasps hia
pen. He says:
“There has been no period in our history
when it was more important to defeat the
Democratic party than now. That, we must
all concede, <an only he done by carrying 1
New York. It is a very narrow margin to
bring the security and further expansion
of the mercantile, commercial and indus
trial interests of this great country of ours l
down to; but such is the nation, and we
must meet it as it confronts us.”
That is very oracular, but it is not
very encoui aging to the apppehensive
Republican I relhreu. His judgment of
fitness in connection with the pious
sentiment toward the Democratic par
ty is expressed as follows:
“ Now. in my opinion, what ive need in New
York is the man who can get the mis' voles;
and if we do not get these the Democratic
party will.”
The wkdont of that observation is
on’y surpassed by its nove'ty. Dorsey
was the man who got more votes ill
Indiana than anybody else could. Per
haps he would be the one to set upon
New Yo"k. But we quote further:
“ This enemy must he met and must he
beaten: and if lie is not routed and driven
hick, the people—and I mean Hie working
people, the laborers of the country, for they
are the masses of the people, and it is they
who depend upon the mai ue mure of irdus
tr-al activity for a subsistence—would suffer.”
This we reproduce because it sounds
so much like his sapient master, who,
when informed at his home that the
people didn’t desire his services, said
he didn’t care on his own account, but
his heart bled for the poor black man.
Poor, indeed, is the b aek man who
isn’t held in higher esteem to div than
the obscure hen farmer of Fremont. He
has one virtue, however; lie keeps quiet.
Those who shared his four years of
usurpation, would do well to fol’ow his
example in this respect. —Boston tost.

HIE HAMPTON INSTITUTE,
TTlial llii* Renfflcienl I ntfrpi iiw* in irolnc
lor fli© l duration of lihUuiib and Col
ored People.
The Hampton Normal and Agricul
tural Institute at Hampton, Va., held
its anniversary exercises on Thursday,
May 22, and the reports made or. this,
its sixteenth year, show a good degree
of prosperity. There have been on its
rolls the past year live hundred negro
and one hundred and twenty Indian
students—the former preparing to go
South to teach their people,
where nearly a thousand already
trained in this Institute have
established themselves anil are doing a
great work in the colored common
schools, especially of Virginia and North
Carolina. Of Indians seventy have al
ready graduated and gone back to their
homes in Dakota, and in the Southwest,
and are mechanics, farmers and hired
hands. Not over seven have gone back
to Indian ways, and eight have died.
On the whole the record of educated
Indians who have in the past three
years returned from Hampton to their
liomes has been satisfactory.
The school has been built up since
1868 at a cost of about $400,000, and is
free from debt. It is now seeking an
endowment for its annual expenses,
which are $50,000 in excess of aid re
ceived from the Government. It is a
private, not a public institution, duly in
corporated, and is aided only in a mod
erate degree by the Government, which
helps the Indians only.
The Trustees are making a special
effort to secure sixteen thousand dollars
to build a new dormitory for colored
girls, two hundred in number, who are
now greatly crowded and suffering for
want of room. General S. C. Arm
strong, the principal of the school (ad
dress, Hampton, Va.), will gladly re
ceive and acknowledge contributions
for any of the purposes of the school,
which is an attempt to solve two of the
race problems of our country. It is
conducted on the manual labor plan.
Student work out on the farm, or in the
shops, the most of their expenses. They
have earned this year over $35,000. The
whole six hundred —a little less than
one-half are girls—are literally working
out their own salvation. This feature
of self-help commends the school to
the confidence and interest of all good
citizens.
A Queer Fish-Pond.
On top of the ’Record building, ninety
feet from the ground, is a water-tank
with a capacity of 18,000 gallons.®olt
was never thought of as a source of fish
supply, but a recent discovery has sug
gested almost unlimited possibilities in
that direction. On last Friday the en
gineer had occasion to clean out the
tank, when he was amazed to find in
one <>f bis buckets n squirming oil, uino
inches long and of fair proportions. In
a few minutes he found other fish in his
buckets, a catfish four inches long, and
more eels, until fie had a fair collection,
which he carefully preserved. A fishing
pond nearly a hundred feet above the
ground is a novel affair, and this singu
lar “catch” from the Itecora' i roof has
provoked a great deal of curiosity and
[Speculation. The water is pumped into
the tank from the water main on Chest
nut street, coming into the three-ineh
pipe of the Record through an inch con
necting pipe. It then passes to the
d'orce pumu and is forced 100 feet into
the tank above through a three-inch pipe.
The fish probably came from the
Schuylkill while very young and small,
and found their devious wavs to the
tank, where they grew up. Wnat they
fed upon is a mystery, and the proof
reader, who usually spends live hours
evere week in bait mg his hook for Wis
sahickon catfish, «ill now look for
mountain the Record's roof.—

—Taylor County, Georgia, can pro
duce a negro man who has been stone
blind for thirty-one years, yet has al
ways been able, with the assistance of
his wife, to make a decent living for
themselves and a large family of chil
dren. His name is Ben Caldwell, and
a more industrious negro can not be
found in the county. A number of
farmers will testify to the fact that Ben
can pick 150 pounds of cotton per day,
and with the assistance of his two little
boys he can tie into bundles all the
grain of any kind that three “cradlers”
can cut, as fast as it falls from their cra
dle. He can cut wood, split rails, and
most any kind of farm work. One
of the most remarkable features of his
character is that he never forgets a
voice after once catching its sound, and
is enabled to call most any parson by
name with whom he is acquainted.—

T'ii ics,
Telegraphing with Teeth and Eyelids.
J. T. Norris of Spriffgfield, G.,the de
tective, does a trick that probably no
other man in the country can imitate.
He takes a silver c fin, usually a dollar,
and places it on his tongue between his
teeth. With his tongue lie strikes fit
against the teeth with the sound of a
telegraphing instrument, the opening
and closing of the circuit being exactly
imitated. Norris used to be an operator,
and by means of the coin can telegraph
words so distinctly that any telegrapher
can easily read the message. In this
manner he telegraphed fifty words a
minute. A Republican reporter wrote
out a message on a Western Union blank,
and handed it to the detective. The
two operators in charge at the Southern
took down the words as fast as Norris
produced them with the coin. The
message was rapidly sounded and writ
ten down, apd all three copies coincided
exactly. Mr. Norris can stand up before
a telephone, and in this novel manner
telegraph a message which any tele
grapher can read with great facility. But
the most wonderful thing is to see him
telegraph with his eyelids. The dots
and dashes of the telegraphic alphabet
he indicates by more or less rapid open
ing and shutting of the eyelids. In this
manner he can converse with an expert
without uttering a sound.— St. Louis

ties as Assistant Postmaster, 1 was taken
with a violent pain or kink in my back; it
was so painful I could hardly breathe, and
I ached all over my body. I immediately
sent for an , Allcock’s Porous Plaster
and applied it over the seat of pain; in
twenty minutes I was entirely relieved
and cured. I have used Allcock’s Plasters
in my family for over twenty years, and
have found them wonderfully effective in

you should also recommend that one

They stimulate, strengthen and act as pow

poisonous acids and salts. I have had fever
and ague; all remedies I took produced lit
tle or no effect until I put an Allcock’s
Porous Plaster over each kidney; their
action being more than doubled, the ma

also had several attacks of rheumatism

Plasters over the local pain, and also over
the kidneys, I again found your Plasters
wonderfully efficacious. H. K. Tiiomae.

All weakness and ill health owes its
origin to an impure state of the blood and
a weakness of the urinary and digestive
organs. A medicine that will strengthen
these organs, and at the same time purify
the blood, will assist nature in curing

A THRILLING EPISODE.
A Locomotive Engineer’s Instinct—How
He Saved A Train and How He
Saved Himself.
On one of the darkest and stormiest
nights of the recent unusual winter, the ex
dress on one of the leading New York rail
roads was moving westward from Albany.
The engine’s headlight threw a strong reflec
tion in advance, but the storm was so blind
ing it was almost impossible to distinguish
anything even at a short distance. Under
such circumstances instinct necessarily
takes the place of sight. All seemed to be
going well, when, in an instant, the engi
neer reversed his engine, applied the air
brakes, and came to a full stop. Why he
did so he could not tell any more than any
of us can account for the dread of coming
disaster and doath, and to the wondering
inquiry of his fireman he simply said: “1
feel that something’s wrong.” Seizing a
lantern he swung himself down from the
cab and went forward to investigate. Ev
erything appeared to be right, and he was
about to return to his engine when his eye
caught sight of a peculiar appearance at
the joint of the rail next to him. Brush
ing the accumulated snow away, he looked
a moment, and (hen uttered an exclama
tion of horror. The rails on both sides had
(been un spiked and would have turned over
the instant the engine touched them. What
inspired this attempt at train-wrecking is
unknown, but it was presumed the confed
erates of some prisoners who were on the
train hoped, in the confusion of an acci
dent, to deliver their friends.
Engineer John Donohoe, of Albany, to
whose wonderful instinct was duo the sal
vation of the train, when asked by the
writer why he stopped his engine, said:
“ I can’t tell why. I only know l felt
something was wrong.”
“ Do you have these feelings often when
upon the road?” continued the writer.
“No, very seldom, although for the past
twenty years I have been in a condition to
feel apprehension at almost anything.”
“ How is that?”
“ Why, I have been a victim of one of
the worst cases of dyspepsia ever known.
I have not been confined to my bed, as like
thousands of others, 1 am compelled to
work whether able or not. Indeed, when
it first began I had only a loss of appetite,
a faint feeling that woulcf not go away and
a bad tasto in the mouth, but I finally got
those terrible craving and gnawing feel
ings that make life so unbearable and are
known as general debility.”
“ What did you do?”
“ I tried physicians until E became dis
couraged. 1 gave eight different ones fair
tests, but none of them benefited me. I
then tried proprietary medicines, but they
failed, likewise. It looked pretty dark for
mo so far as any more p'-aco or enjoyment
in tliis world wore concerned and I became
terribly discouraged.”
‘‘You certainly do not look that way
now.”
“ Oh, no, indeed, I am in perfect health
now,” was the reply “and I propose to
continue so. My nervousness is entirely
gone; I can sleep nights; the aching numb
ness has disappeared; the pale, sickly ap
fiearance has given place to the color of
lealth, and 1 have readily put on flesh.
This is what lias been accomplished by
means of Warner’s Tippecanoe. If I can
be cure 1 after a chronic illness of nearly
a quarter of a century I believe all suffer
ing in a similar manner can be restored by
using the same great remedy.”
Such is the testimony of a man who
could detect and remove unseen danger on
th 3 road but could not remove the dangers
from witmn ms own system until c..-..o e hii
face to face with the great preparation
above-named which did so much for him and
can do as much for all those wlo require it.
A knock-down argument—“l shall never
be found out, and 1 need the money more

STONES IN THE KIDNEY
Expelled by the Use of Dr. David Kenne
dy’s Favorite Remedy (of Rondont, N.
Y.) —after Several Able Physicians bad
Failed, and the Patient was Nearly
Ready to Abandon Hope—The Substance
of a Long and Grateful Letter.
One of the most remarkable cases that
has ever been brought to the notice of the
public is that of Mr. J. S. Beach, of Stone
Ridge, Ulster Co., N. Y. Mr. Beach had
suffered since October 18th, 1874, from the
presence of Calculus or Stone in the right
Kidney. No less than seven physicians
were employed at different times, to whom
Mr. Beach paid hundreds of dollars for
medical treatment, with only temporary
relief.
By the urgent solicitations of his friends
he was induced to try DR. DAVID
KENNEDY’S FAVORITE REMEDY.
He experienced a marked improvement
from the first day he began to use the
medicine: on the 15th of September be
voided a stone as large as could be passed
through the natural channel.
Mr. Beach concludes a long letter to Dr.
Kennedy by saying: “It will always af
ford me pleasure to recommend Ihe FA
VORITE REMEDY to those who may bo
suffering from difficulties of the Kidneys
and Bladder, or any disorders arising from
an impure state of the blood.”
Fortify the system.
