The alleged indictments in St
Louis are denied by authority. “Pity

There is a constant stream of mov

Most of them are from Illinois and
Indiana, but some are from Kentucky

The number of postal cards issued
by the Post-Ofllce Department last
month was 30,138,000. This is the
largest issue by at least 6,000,000 cvei
made in one month. Tho demand
was doubtless greater than usual on
account of the new card.
The October report of crops shows
a largo increase in tho rice crop of
Georgia, South Carolina, North Caro
lina and Louisiana this year. Tho
sugar cane crop in Georgia has been
cut short by the drouth. Mississippi
now leads in the manufacture of su
gar and molassoH. The farmers are
making all they consume themselves,
and are prospering. Tho hop crop in
New York, Oregon and Kentucky is
fine, and was cut in good season.
The Turkish financial agent at
Paris made fifty millions of francs by
the failure of the Turkish Govern
ment to meet its obligations. He was
cognisant of the repudiation project
of his government, but published
contradictory reports guaranteeing
the Turkish loan, and then began to
sell short. Another banker, in collu
sion with the agent, made eighteen
millions of francs. Stocks fell from
55 to 28. The Turks arc reported to
be very merry over their latest'finan
cial gouge of the “infldel dogs.”
Tkirp-term sentiment at Washing
ton is thus represented by a corres
pondent of the Springfield Republi
can : “I find people here, nnd they
are not fools either, who believe that
Gen. Grant will win u renomination
on th successes of this week, but
they must be totally mistaken. I
doubt if Gen. Grant himself has any
such hope. There is not a man in his
Cabinet, unless it be Mr. Robeson,
who believes in and advocates tho re
nomination of Gen. Grant. Even Mr.
Chandler does not, and, if for no oth
er reason, because ho knows the Re
publicans of Michigan are against it,
and he cares more for a year in the
Senate Jhan two in tho Cabinet.”

The Richmond Whig, lecturing
Southern Congressmen, says: “The
Southern members must not leave it
to Northern Democrats to si>eak for
them. They must speak for them
selves. One word of generous nation
al sentiment from a true representa

more to the Democratic cause t han a
hundred si*eeches for pacitlcation and
fraternization from any Democrat of
the North.”
The Richmond Whig is right. We
need bold, outspoken, truthful rep
resentatives.

There are 12,000,000 Christians in
Turkey, There seems to be plotting
on the part of the Mohammedans to
destroy the Christians. When we
take into consideration that tho pop
ulation of Christians in Turkey equals
the total population of tho Southern
States, and that tho sympathies of
Europe are with Christians, tho task
thus self-imposed by tho Mohamme
dans seems to be a difficult one. Tho
sympathies of Europe are further en
listed against Turkey by the partial
repudiation of the foreign debt of
that oountry.
It is said that the lire at Virginia
City, Nevada, by which $7,500,000 of

It Is not a vory good time to ask
for subsidies, for the people are poor,
the times uro hurd and the taxes are
high. Nevertheless the following

Total 1400,000,(Ko
Seven of the ten projects hero named
are Southern, and for that reason
will probably receive special atten
tion from the politicians in Congress.
But on tho whole it is a poor time to
ask for subsidies.
Tho abovo from tho Now York Her
ald probably reflects tho views of the
mass of tho Northern poople. The
North, having obtained nearly all
tho appropriations during the pa t
twenty years and most of those prior
to that time, now appeals to the
people to reform! retrench!! econ
omise!!! This plea will bo urged
with all the monied influences that
were brought to bear in aid of Credit
Mobilier enterprises, by which the
North might bo benefited. The plea
will not prevail. Tho arguments used
by Stephen A. Douglas in aid of the
Illinois Central Railroad may bo used
with ten-fold the force by our Repre
sentatives in Congress in aid of the
development of Southern rivers and
canals. Importantas is theSoHthern
Paciflc Railroad, it can not bo con
sidered so Important as tho Atlantic
and Great Western Canal, or the
■Tames River and Kanawha Canal.
Nor can either of these demand such
immediate attention as tho improve
ments on the Mississippi river. The
pluntors cau no longer build and re
pair the levees, and tho richest lands
in the New World will have to be
abandoned if the Government does
not devise some system by which
these lands can bo protected. Let the
Herald give us the tables showing
what has been dono by tho Govern
ment to build up the North, East and
West, before attempting to ridicule
the just claims of the South.

The New York World says: “The
Russian harvests have failed, not here
and there in scattered distriots of the
empire, but from end to end of the
vast dominions of Alexander 11. in
Europe. The condition of the pea
santry forbids the hope of any effec
tive help from associations formed
among themselves. They are all in
volved in one disaster, and that a
complete -and sweeping disaster.
Shall they be assisted by private cap
ital organized in some such form us
tho Agricultural Institutions of Cred
it which have dono so much for East
ern Prussia, or by the State directly?
The traditions of the Russian govern
ment point to the latter alternative,
and this the Allgemeine Zeitung
thinks will be chosen. In other
words, tho fumine of 1875 will lead to
a great Russian loan in 1878. The
credit of the empire, as was shown
but the other day iu London, is excel
lent, and a great loan could probably
be raised in Western Europe by Rus
sia to-day on more favorable terms
than by any other power.”
If specie resumption takes place in
January, 1870, we should not be sur
prised if tho Governmeut hod to pro
vide for the farm laborers of the South
by forming “Agricultural Institutions
of Credit which have done so much
for Eastern Prussia.”
An liniH-nUlnx Itevulutnii.
Tho contrast between the condition
of tho South and the North is, says
the New Orleans Times, attracting
the marked attention of thinking
men. Scores of intelligent gentle
men, who have recently return
ed, appear for the first time to fully
realize llie extent of our vust resour
ces, and particularly the improved
condition of those in the humbler
walks of life. While the poor con
tinue in the majority, their status is
the true criterion of prosperity. Al
ready have capitalists begun to scru
tinize the crowds of employed opera
tives who throng Northern streets.
Many of them are still in their shirt
sleeves and without the means to pro
cure winter clothing. It is feared the
soup houses will during the severe
weather be attended by hundreds who
never before sought such assistance.
The rigid economy of the Southern
people is beginning to produce a mark
ed effect. Luxuries of all kinds
have been almost wholly eschewed,
and what were heretofore considered
necessities, are selectedof the cheap
est and moat durable fabrics. Our
demand for dry goods particularly
has been restricted to staple dry ar
ticles, and in consequence the divi
dends or Northern mill owners are
materially reduced. What has bene
titled this section ef the country im
poverished the North. While the
climate may bo more oppressive in
summer it is far more genial in win
ter. We have the full use of our land
twelve months in tho year, while
snow and ice restriot the farmer of
the North to seven. Improved ma
chinery and great enterprise lias ef
fected much; so far as human inge
nuity can they have overcome the
obstructions of nature, but man is
not omnipotent and there is a point
where human effort must cease.
Pile cotton mills of New England
might be stowed with millions
of yards of fabrics, but while the
consumer is unable to purchase, or
forced by his necessities to do with
out, they are simply dead capital.
To tho operative they are even worse,
representing, as they do, so many
hours of labor which must be ex
hausted before the employment is af
forded. The winter season there
possesses positive characteristics,
while here they are negative. Fire
and heavy raiment there are absolute
necessities u|>on which life depends;
here their absence may be attended
by discomfort, but no greater saeri
lioe. Tho instinct of America is pro
gression, and it will surprise many
if the experience of the approaching
winter does not revolutionize the
traffic of the entire country. Of the
whole land, the South to-dav pre
sents the most profitable field for in
vestment.
Hon. Wm. Gray, of Massachusetts,
is on the right track. He says that
he remembers all the jwtnics back to
the year 182:), and that there has nev
er been in any one ol them such uni
versal depression of all brunches of
business as that under which the
people are now suffering. “What is,”
ho adds, “theoauso of this depression
so long continued and so deeply felt?
There ore undoubtedly many causes
contributing to it- but' I affirm that
the chief cause of the present pros
tration is the ignorance and incom
petence of those who have managed
the national affairs."
tMiit.ic opinion.
Senator Gordon thinks the curren
cy quest ion defeated the Democracy,
and is satisfied the party will make a
serious mistake it it takes that issue
into the National canvass. Mr. Gor
don has evidently seen a light since
he called Carl Hchurz’s hard-money
arguments “oracular bombast,” and
declared that the only hope for the
couutry was to bo found iu the adop
tion of the 3,65 bond scheme, N. Y.
Tribune.

The Republican thinks it quite
likely it will have the opportunity of
supporting Gov. Tilden for President
next yeur, and quite likely it will be
glad to embrace it. It hopes for a
still bettor man ; it would be willing
to-day to compromise on having
so good a one.—Springfield Republi
can (Ind.)
But for the Ohio campaign Now
York would have been won by 60,000
instead of 10,000 majority. Pennsyl
vania would also have been ours.
Hie result shows that the defeat may
be retrieved, and that the chances for
a Democratic President arc strongly
in ottr favor. The lesson is, stick to
the winning issues; suppress the mar
plots; bring brains to the front, unit
lirown the blatherskites.—Courier-
Journal (Dem.)
The whole philosophy of polities
at the present time is comprised in
this paragraph from the Springfield
Republican : If the Democrats hadn’t
misconstrued and abused their good
fortune of lust year, this wouldn't
have happened to them. If the Re
publicans, not taking warning by the
example, proceed to similarly mis
construe ami abuse the fresh chance
which the disgust of the i>eople witli
the other fellows has given them, it
may be their turn, a year hence, to
wish they hadn’t. The couutry tips
“awful easy,” these days.
It is just as true now as it was after
the Ohio election that Senator Bay
ard and Governor Tilden are the sole
surviving Democratic candidates for
the Presidency. An inflationist or a
dodger on the currency question, has
no more chance of a nomination than
Andrew Jackson has. -N. Y. Tribune.
What Has Hw* Warned.
Wo do cot care to ask the politic
ians who managed the Republican
side of the late canvass, and were so
successful In it, what they have gain
ed by tho result. The answer to that
wotird be plain enough. They have
achieved a success in business. They
went for offices and have got them.
With them there was no question of
principle nor care for consequences.
It, made no difference witli them what
policy was upproved or what con
demned; no difference what means
were tised to effect their object or
what may bo the consequences to the
city, State, or nation. They only
know that they won a victory, that
victory meuns offices, and that offices
mean money and an easy time. They
went for these things; they got them ;
what need of bothering further about
it?—New York Tribune.
A Ueiuarkaitlc Man.
The Emperor of Germany is one of
the most remarkable men in Europe.
He is now in his 79th year, and seems
no more inclined to rest than ordina
ry men at half that age. Tills past
season he has been particularly ac
tive. He has traveled through his
own country, holding military re
views and receptions in all the prin
cipal cities, and no sooner was this
task completed than ho set off on a
visit to the King of Italy. The Em
peror has helped to make a good
deal of history in his day. lie be
came Regent of Prussia iu 1838, and
three years later succeeded to the
crown. Tho war with Austria in 1866
resulted in making Prussia the head
of the North Oerman Confederation,
and the war with France in 1870—71
united Germany and made the King
of Prussia its Eini>eror. Since then
he has been active in European poli
ties as becomes the Emperor of a
great military nation.

Though Moody .and Sankoy are
believers in hell, they make hardly
any use of its terrors, and rarely ever
refer to it. Many of the other famous
revivalists have made it a prominent
feature of their preaching, if not the
chief means of influencing sinners.
Elder Knapp thundered around it till
the echoes of liia voice struck terror
into the hearts of the wicked. The
Rev. Charles G. Finney stood by its
brink, rigorous an<l unsparing, point
ing his linger down the bottomless
abyss, and sternly warning bis hear
ers against the Divine wrath which
held its jienalties in reserve for the
unrepentant. Wesley and Whitfield
understood its power on the harden
ed conscience. Everybody knows
the extent to which that power is
oftentimes displayed at modern
Methodist camp-meetings. Perhaps
Moody and Sankey, in their revlvul
experiences. have found themselves
able to work effectively upon the
human mind by other means. Per
haps they may resort to it yet before
they get through with Brooklyn.
How to Teach History.
At a recent Massachusetts teachers’
meeting it was argued that too much
must not be attempted in teaching
history; that details of history should
not be taught, but left for the pupil
to learn iu after years by reading.
History in the school-room should
embrace a few loading facts, which
will act as magnets around which
minor facts will cluster. A half doz
en political facts, out of which our
system of government has grown ; a
score of inventions, from which our
mercantile prosperity has arisen; a
few leading literary facts to which
our literature is indebtedthese
were the teachings advocated.

THF nUIIIKM IRON WOilK*.
A VIVID PICTURE O?AN AMERICAN ENTER
PRIME —THE LARGEST KSTABLIHHMENT
OF THE KIND IN THE WORLD.
Frt m tne South.]
At, a point in the southern part of
the city ol Troy, the barrier of hills
is broken to allow the passage of a
small stream called the Wynantskill.
Should the reader cross this stream
ami follow tlie winding road which
leads up the ravine, he would en
counterso many teams as to suggest
the idea of a caravan. Some of these
are laden with kegs resembling kegs
of nuils. As he advances ho con
fronts a wonderful scene. Hero con
cealed by the great hills is un indus
trial city, where, aided by the most
complete nnd formidable machinery,
seven hundred men work day arid
night in making horse-shoes. It is a
great enterprise founded by Henry
Burden nearly fifty years ago, and
which has advanced from that begin
ning to be the largest establishment
of the kind in world.
These works cover several acres.
A constant cloud of smoke rests above
them while from their chimney tops
fearful sheets of flame dart forth. At
night they present a scene at once
grand and terrible. The whole pro
cessor making tho horse-shoe is com
pleted here. The iron is brought in
pig, and in a very brief time it is
transmuted into perfect horse-shoes.
The great furnaces glowing with heat,
soon reduces the hard cold iron, after
which it is passed through a series
of machines, each in turn making it
smallerand smaller, nntill it becomes
the exact size required for the shoe.
From this last machine it is passed
to another, while it is yet hot, which
forms it into a shoe. Having per
formed this, it drops it upon a car
riage resembling nn endless belt,
which carries it a hundred feet away
to another room, where it is picked
up and holes made in it for the nails.
Then it is thrown into a hollow
cylinder with thousands of others,
and after a quantity of saw-dust is
introduced, the cylinder is set in
motion and all impurities acquired
in the process of manufacture are
removed. It is next inspected, and
as a motive to do this duty thorough
ly, men are paid for all the imper
fect slices they can find.
The perfect shoes are then put into
a ear and run to an elevator, by
which they are raised to a railroad
with two tracks and above immense
bins into which they are dumped.
The building appropriated to this
purpose is a model structure, and is
most admirably fitted to t be purpose.
It resembles the round house for lo
comotives. Each bin is set apart for
a particular kind of shoe. There are
sixteen of them, and each one, when
full, contains some 900,00 u shoes,
making on aggregate of 14,400.000.
To walk above these vast bins and
look upon this great convocation ol
shoes is indeed bewildering. It
would seem as if all the horses in the
world might be supplied by resources
so ample.
The machines by which they are
made are ingenious pieces of mechan
ism. They are at once massive,
strong and active. A single machine
will form a shoe a second, which is
3,600 an hour, and BG,ooo in twenty
four hours: for it must be remember
ed that these operations are
going on botli day and
night. It will be seen that
one of these machines is capable of
making 37,043,200 In the working days
of a year. So wonderful and effective
a device for the manufacture of an
article of indispensable daily use is
the highest benefaction, uinl must
entitle its inventor to the lasting grat
itude of mankind.
But it is not the facility and dis
patch alone of its operations that are
to lie considered. It is the absolute
uniforimty in size and weight, and
the general perfection of the work
manship, which give these shoes an
advantage, and which makes them
desirable above any other mode of
manufacture. Material of great ex
cellence is used, and the utmost care
exercised in every detail of the busi
ness. It is to this fact that the con
cern is indebted for the high estimate
in which their goods are held, and for
the liberal patronage which they
have received both iu this oountry
and throughout the world.
The power for running these vast
works is furnished by a water-wheel,
which is a marvel of mechanical
effort. It is the Titan of wheels, the
whole world being unable to show
another of equal size, when its diam
eter and width are considered.
The great wheel at Saxey, Isle of
Man, is seventy-two feet und six
incites in diameter, but is only six
feetin width, and weighs but ten tons
while this Burden wheel is sixty feet
in diameter, twenty-two feet in width,
and weighs but 3tx> tons, It concen
trates the vast power of twelve hun
dred horses. To move these great
works is but a pastime. A little man,
in a cot at its centre, controls its ac
tion with as much ease as if it were
a toy. It shows none of the small
anil petty freaks of steam. It moves
like the sun, ponderous und majestic.
A sense of awe is inspired bv its pres
ence. Its supremacy and its power
are made tangible bv its immensity.
Here for a quarter of a century it has
held its ceaseless course, performing
without turmoil or murmur its giant
task, and yet it tires not, and to-day
fulfills its mighty labors as well ns
when it first begun. Here in this vale,
where men are rarely led to see the
great and the noble, it enacts a per
petual miracle by its immensity and
its power, and is a grand and fitting
tribute to the mind which designated
it and first gave it motion.
There is another branch of busi
ness carried on at these works too
important to be omitted. It is the
manufacture of boiler rivets. They
are made with tlie greatest rapidity
bv machinery which was invented by
Mr. Burden for the purpose. They
are highly finished, and are made
from tne most superior iron. The
production of these rivets is large,
owing to a demand created by their
very excellent quality. A depart
ment of the works is specially as
signed to this branch and is supplied
with ingenious machinery.
Immediately on the Hudson are
the blast furnaces, puddling, forge
and rolling mills of the Burden
Works. Here 700 men are employed,
and operations of the greatest mag
nitude are carried on. Tho most
complete and powerful machinery
is used, and the entire appointments
of the works are on the grand scale.
While more recently founded, these
works are auxiliary to the others,
and are the completion of a plan
worthy of the enlarged mind of their
founder.
