OUK STATE PULITICS.

We once more, and for the last time, call
the attention of our Republican State Commit
tee. and of the Special Committee appointed
at our last State Convention, to tho anarchy
prevailing in our City organization. We have
three distinct General Committees and each OF
them may very probably undertake to call
urinary meetings to choose delegates to
our State Convention which meets ut SYRIA
cuse on the 28th inst thus thrusting tresh
and enlarged edition of our senseless teudS
and broils upon the attention of our fellow
Republicans of the interior, and needlessy
aggravating their annoyance and disgust.
We presume, of course, that something is be-
ing done in the premises; but the whole mat
ter should have been settled and out OF the
way ere this. The Committees above-named
have ample power nine-tenths of the Repub-
lrcan voters of our City will eagerly support
without question whatever decision they may
announce; and settlement would be hailed
with enthusiasm throughout the State. IL
would increase the attendance at the COnyen-
ton, and the zeal with which its ticket would
be supported.
The Republicans are a clear majority of the
legal voters of our State. They cannot be
last Fall and there is good reason to hope
that dissensions in the ranks of our antago-
nsts will prevent their cheating us at all
Thousands who looked on with gee while we
were swindled at the rate of five thousand
votes per hour last November will promptly
interpose veto to the swindling of their
favorites on the "Tammany" or "anti-
"Tammany Democratic local ticket
We have $1,000 Republicans who are
legal voters in our City and these are enough
to elect two Senators and half q dozen Assem-
blymen in tho chance-medley of our coming
election, beside securing the triumph of our
State Ticket. Let our feuds be throttled at
once and we may do as we will at the polls
in November.
We hope to hear directly, not that some adj
iustment is in prospect, but that it has been
concluded. Our bases of such adjustment
would be the same for the City rs for the

extracts which we give from it this morning
viii abundantly repay reading, although the
subject is somewhat worn and the General mas
discovered no new testimony. sharp advo-
cate, however, can often de more by cross
examination than by producing witnesses OF
his own. and Gen. Butler having placed Mrs.
Stowe upon the stand, subjects her to such
merciless oyerhauling that we almost fancy
ourselves, as we read it, listening to trial III
the Massachusetts, courts. If the verdict OF
publc opinion were given with Difference to the
strict rules of legal evidence we do not
suppose Mrs. Stoves extraordinary nara
tive would have the ghost of chance
of acceptance for whatever may be the truth
of the matter, our well-meaning and ill-judg-
ing cOuntrywoman stands convicted OF most
feminine propensity toward inaccuracy in details
1t is not to be supposed for moment, however
that she has made the charge which forms tho
basis of her article in The Atlantic without
some sort of proof to back it. and the public
mind will not be put entirely at rest until 1t
appears what that proof is Gen. Butler, In

given that would stand in court OF justice,
or that ought to weigh with our minds; but
before we either accept or deny this position,

THE PENNSYLVANIA DISASTER.

4 If great disasters in the mines, such as are
SO frequent in Great Britain, and such as
caused an awful slaughter yesterday in Penn
sylvania, are comparatively rare III this country,
it is certainly not because we are more careful
of human life than the miners Of the Old World
or more advanced in our methods of working
Nature has so favored us in the situation Of
our coal beds that we need seldom dig to such
tremendous depths as the English miners,
and with the diminished depth of the
shafts and galleries the facility for
overcoming the great difficulties of drainage
and ventilation is of course greatly increased.
Given good ventilation, and the wO,st danger
of mining disappears. 1t is well for us that
Providence has been so bouptiful for American
recklessness in the face Of such perils is awful
to contemplate. Think of miles of galleries,
1900 feet, as some of them are, below the
surface Of the earth, through which creep con-
tinually poisonous and explosive gases; think
of two or three hundred men at work
there with lamps and gunpowder; think
that pumps and fans must be kept in constant
motion, for If the fan stops fire and suffoca.
ton follow, and if the pumps stop
the workmen are drowned in their cav.
ems. Then remember that in many
II not in most of the mines there is only n
single narrow shaft communicating with the
upper air, and this is the sole channel for

The supposed deliberatOn which the Seaatus

clusion has been reached has only been quail
fed by the new Outburst of Prince Napoleon

Cotton Fabrics are nearly twice as dear as
they were in 1859, because Cotton is thrice as
high as then but substantial Wooden Fabrics
of American make are very nearly if not quite
as cheap to-day, under high Protective duties,
as they were ten years ago under low Revenue
duties. Wool, also, though protected, Is
cheaper in coin than in 80. SO are Agricul-
tural Implements generally.
On the whole. we submit that the case is
by no means so bad for the farmers as The
Post would make it.

Comments by The Tribune.

Fire years ago, we were involved In deS'
perate, exhausting Civil War, and all prices
were unnaturally high, as reckoned in our
Paper Currency, though we doubt that the
exaggeration was greater in the products OF
Agriculture than in those of Manufactures.
But ten years ago we were at peace, with COM
parative Free Trade, no Public Debt TO speak
of, no War burdens, and very light taxes. OF
course, we know that our various and heavy
Debts, National, State, County, City. Town
ship, &c, incurred since 1859 for the preserva-
ton of the Union, our new Pension list, &c,
&C., are calling on our People for some Three
or Four Hundred Millions per annum, which
ia probably a tenth of their annual product
OF course, the farmers have to shoulder part
of this load as well as the rest Of rs. Let
us see how heavy their burden is
