Rsns,ne Again at Work.

1t would seem that there is to be no
end to the accidents and fatalities attend
ing this most dangerous article, and that
our prediction in our Aug. number is to
be bitterly fulfilled. s,
merchant in a small village some Is
miles from Newark, in drawing bensine
in a cellar placed his light on the floor at
a considerable distance from the can con-
tanning it; in a moment loud explosion
was heard and the store was in flames
The merchant vainly attempted to reach
the staircase and was burned to death.
The fire ON the 18th inst. in McClure's
wholesale dry goods store at Albany, was
caused by gas from leaking varnish cask
coming in contact with a gas light. The
fire was most intensely fierce, and was
subdued with difficulty by the persistent
efforts of the fire department. This is
the second time this store has been on fire
within a year and half, and from the
same cause as IS believed.
A couple Of weeks since retail drug
store at Fort Plain was severely damaged
by a fire from gas from bensine yarnish
coming in contact with a light while
draining it. We have a dozen more cases
of like cause and result.
When will the public learn the true
character of this insidious stuff, with
which they have to do?- Wall Street Re

General Garfield.

The New York Army and Navy Journal
pays the following handsome compliment
to the above named gentleman. We say
good for the poor canal boy: I'VE trust
It will not be considered going out of our
way if we say that General Gar6eld's ca
reer affords fine illustration of the op-
portunities which our free Institutions af-
ford even the humblest to rise to eminent
station. By the death Of his parents while
yet very young, he was cast wholly upon
mis- own resources for livelihood. At the
age of sixteen he drove horses on the Ohio
and Pennsylvania Canal, and rose through
the like narrow fortunes until he was able
to enter Williams College, Massachusetts,.
at which he was graduated in 1856. Al
ter graduating he returned to the West,
and, during period of three years, was
at the head Of collegiate seminary at
Hiram, Ohio, and it was from among his
pupils and friends that he formed the reg
iment (42d Ohio with which, at the out
break of the war, he took the field. The
poor canal boy, the struggling teacher, Is
to-day, at the age OF thirty-two, Major
General.

The President,s Position.

The letter of the President to the Mis-
souri, delegation, is a new evidence of his
skill in dealing with the different ques-
tions presented by the times 1t carries
conviction with its honest and straight
forward statement; and in this letter, we
believe, there is nothing to which except
ion can be taken on the score of style
His preliminary statement of the compli-
cations which beset the solution of the
problems arising every day is a remarka-
bic compact; ..----
"We are in civil war. In such cases
there always is main question; but in
this case that question is perplexiDg
compound-Uni and Slavery. 1t thus
becomes a question not of two sides mere
ly, but at least four sides, even among
those who are for the Union, saying moth
ing of those who are against it. Thus,
those who are for the Union tCitA but not
I1itkOut slavery-thOse for it lSibholt but not
ieith--those for it lcith or lcithout, but prefer
it tcith, and those for it toitA or scithoat, but
prefer it t0ithout." | a-
The Presidents own position is among
those who are for the Union, with or with
out slavery, but who prefer it without:
and this no doubt is the position of an
overwhelming majority of the American
people. He will not violate the COnsti-
tuition to crafty his preference. 1t i not
necessary; the people neither demand
this nor would justify it, yet the prefer
ence is natural and proper. '1l

Wholesale Fruits of the Late Elec-
tions. .r.

! The CONSERVATION of the enemies of the
Government and the war since the result
of the 0tober and November elections, in
the loyal States, has never been equalled
in political history As we contrast their
loud and confident tones before these
elections, and their lame and impotent
attempts to explain and excuse their
overwhelming defeats, we cannot avoid
recalling the period when the same men
! insisted that the administration of Mr..
Lincoln could not prosecute the war to q
successful close, and ridiculed and Gepre-
ciated all the great measures deemed
necessary by Congress and the Executive
to crush the rebellion. Their prophesies
| in the one case are nearly similar to their
propheSies in the other. that he must be
blind or stupid who will not draw strong
adnoniiion from the spectacle. In both
instances the successful and wholesome
results have Vindicated the friends and
rebuked the enemies of the Government
Incalculable are the good consequences
that must flow from the October and No
vember elections. 1t is not only that
these verdicts strengthen the arm of the
constituted authorities and encourage the
soldiers who are fighting for the flag and
the preservation Of the Government, but
there is another aspect in which they will
be found most potent and effective auxil-
liaries to the good cause. We mean their
influence upon the people at large-upon
those who were constrained by sense of
party duty or induced by plausible ap-
peals to vote against the Union tickets,
and in favor of the anti-war or so-called
Democratic candidates.
These citizens were neither disloyal nor
dishonest, but were people who, when
they came to realize how much good has
been done by the majorities thrown
against their own political organization,
and how much terror these maiorities
have carried into the rebel ranks, will re-
wise their recent action and abandon all
combinations and leaders that do not
come up squarely and frankly to the du-
ties of the patriot and to all the require
ments of this momentous question:

The Fruits of Loyalty.

The recent report of the State Treasur-
er of Kentucky gives some valuable infor-
nation relative to the financial condition
of that Commonwealth, and when the
people more particularly interested, read
this glowing evidence of the prosperity
which prevails amid their numerous troub-
les and depriyations as residents of Bor-
der State in time of civil war, they can
not but congratulate themselves upon the
foresight which induced them to remain
loyal to their country. The record of
Kentucky is truly a gratifying one. AL
though one-third of her area has been in
the possession of the rebels, and a still
larger portion infested by rowing bands of
marauders, she has remained true to the
Union, and as a reward for her loyalty
now finds her treasury in q most satisfac-
tory condition, her banks in many in
stances commanding premium for their
issues, her common schools in successful
operation, and her Executive and Legis-
lative Department filed by patriots, whose
integrity and patriotism bear favorable
comparison with those honorable attrib-
utes of any officials in the Northern States.
The Treasurer states that in all cases
the interest on the public debt has been
promptly palu IN tne Guy Oh New Ork,
EbSss the same is made payable, and the
numerous and heavy claims growing out
of the recruiting service, and their mill
tary system generally, have all been paid
with equal promptness. All this has been
done without encroaching on the Com
mon School Fund" which has been held
inviolate, as required by the Constitution.
The balance in the treasury, October 10,
1868, was SS0S, ,387, or S34S, ,675 20 more
than at the some date in 1862, S52S, ,275 IS
more than in 1861, and 1851, ,S3S SO more
than in 1860.
What more foreible proof of the advan-
tages of loyalty over treason could be adj
duced than this official statements, Let
the States in rebellion, which had no
greater temptations to encounter than
Kentucky, respond to the query.

On the flag Of rebellion we gaze wi distrust,
As il flaps Ger the crocodileis pool
The banner Of butchery, arson and lust
Enfolding the knave and the fool.
The demons have brought to Columbis's shores
The crimes Of the centuries fed.
And hell from It's csyerns the multitude pours
Which guilt has sent down TO the dead;
They swarm in the tents which rebellion has raised
Where the poison tobacco plant grows,
And Satan discOv ers his legions amazed,
As they mingle with Liberty's foes.

Suspicious Insurance Cos. in Eng
land.

There is no country in the world so pro
life as England in Insurance swindles.-
The English are commonly regarded here
as sluggish; but judging from personal OBJ
seryation, we think they can beat the
Jews in living upon their wits. A great
point with them seems to be to make
something out of nothing. and that with
out manual labor. For this purpose the
Insurance business seems to afford them
peculiar facilities. They have no law re-
quiring Insurance Companies to show
their hands, as we have, and so scamps
are permitted TO resort to all manner OF
devices, under the cloak of Insurance, to
cheat the public - Wall Street ReUiso.
