Newark.

In a recent visit TO Newark, n. j., we were
through the politcncss OF Mr.. HARRISON
and Mr.. JEssUP, business firms in that city
taken for drive through the pleasant avenues
that lead to and from the city. We could but
note the advantages which nature as well as
energy and business sagacity, had made New
ark to become, and is already known, as one
of the most prominent manufacturing cities of
the east The Malleable and Grey Iron Foun-
dry, under the management of VIM. S. Jessup,
has grown into large proportions, and he is
making arrangements to erect larger and
more commodious building, and has more ex-
tcnsive grounds on which to carry forward
with greater success. the business which flows
tn his house. Here, too, are the large trunk
manuiac tories, one of which we saw, That of
Heady turns out its hundreds of trunks daily.
that for strength and durability have no equal,
all of the trunks being supplied with Jessups
Patent Trunk Clamp, which are sure protec-
tor against the railway handling OF baggage,
The famous Clark's Cotton is here made,
and the wood consumed for the manufacture
ing of spools, looked to us sufficient in quan-
iity ior building man-of-w ship. As we
pass along the avenue which skirts the placid
waters of the Passaic, and from which stream
Newark and Jersey City are supplied with
water, we observe blocks of the brown sand
stone, which are taken from quarry near at
hand, and are here wrought into beauty, aud
ultimately Adorn the elegant fronts of Fifth
Avenue and other handsome residences Of
New York. Soon we come to Bellville where
is situated the Passaic Steam Laundry estab-
| lishment, under the management of ]. b Her
yey Il Co. We are introduced by one Of our
party, Mr.. Harrison, to Mr.. J. Van Worst, Su-
perintendent, who politely showed us about
the building, and gave Us the inside view OF
how linen could become so matchlessly pure
and brilliant, and thus made ready for market.
The most novel feature of this establishment
Ia the useful application of Chinese labor
one hundred OF these "Heathen Chinee" are
here employed, who do their work faithfully
and WELL and the question-"What shall we
do with this peoplet" Is, we believe. fairly set

orderly; he minds his own business, more
than all he Is ingenius, and 6lls his part with
satisfaction to his employers About sixty
Irish girls are also employed in this establish
ment, but work In separate apartments ths
wages are the same-thirty dollars per month

The New York EUening Post, from which
the Comprehend organs have been very fond
of quoting recently, says of the Ohio 'new
departure Democratic platform :"
The Democrats Of Ohio, acting in the name
of the Democrats c4 The United Stats. seem
to imagine that their mere acquiesence in the
amended constitution gives them such an
enormous advantage over the Republicans
that they may safely adopt any absurdiiies on
other subject. Perhaps they may as well be
reminded in their young zeal that the Repub-
ficans not merely acquiesce in these amend
ments, but are the authors of them, and that
it is too late for any new party to make much
capital out OF them. Indeed, the Democrats,
by strong minority vote of l47 to 393, in favor
of still making hopeless and bitter war on the
amendments, and by their nomination OF Gen.
George W. NcCook, II copperhead of the
Blair faction, tor Governor, showed that their
acceptance of the national will in this matter
is enforced and reluctant, and covers pur-
pose, which Mr.. McCook more than hall al
lowed in his speech TO the Convention, 10 un-
settle the fundamental law again, il they ever
obtain the pOwer to do it.

DIOCESAN CONVENTION Status of Parties.-
OF the strength OF parties in the Episcopal
Church. as shown in the action of the COnyen-
ton recently held ut Toledo the editor of the
Cleveland Mrdld-himsclf u low churchman--
who WAS in attendance, writes to the HeralA
ns follows
The high Chuich party, Of late years, has
been so feeble In number In Ohio Ms not Ia
creutc much Commoiion in the Low Church
party But not only has the High church
steadily incr, ased In numbers, but there has
sprung up middle party that stands between
these Two extrImLs. II Ia useless 10 show how
and why the High Church party has been In.
creased In numbers. and why third party
has sprung up, but sutllce IL to say that cause
has not been entirely theological. Men have
boon induced to Join the High Churrh party
not because they are extreme men, nor hu
Voeate innovation, or favor "mncuul pubhc
worship, while the third party, not being uls
posed Ia identity itself with the extremists
either side--nOt liking the terms High anu
| I.ow-has come into existence IN order to pre-,
vent the Church In Ohio from running up
or running down" The consequences ls the
Low Church party, to-day, Is In minority In
Ohio, though through lack of sympathy be-
tween the High Church party-whleh isutter

Low Church faction, apparently has thu

The TREATY.-The London Times in
an editorial Of June l4th, says that it
considers it unprecedented that such
grave differences between nations as that
OF the Alabama claims should have been
settled without resort to arms. The de-
mand for consequential damage for in.
jury deBe to American commerce by the
Alabama and kindred vessels was unac-
countable to the English Commissioners
and was abandoned by the United States
The Times in conclusion expresses the
hope that, taking pattern from the ad
justment Of the American question, the
nations in ESrope will rise to higher
conception of the aims and daties oI
inter narion4l fellowship.

SENATOR WADE AS A CANDIDATE FOE Gov
ERNoR.-The Cleveland Herald, Of Monday
last. in allusion to this subject says:
There are still some few persons in
Cincinnati-we have Leard of none else
where, and not many there-whC persist
in using the name Of the Hon. r. +.
Wade IN connection with the Governor
ship. Such course is unfair to Mr..
Wade, who in Published letter posi-
lively refused to accept the nomination
under any circumstances, and in later
letter, evidently written under strong
pressure, modified his published deter
mination to the extent of saying he
would accept the domination only should
the Convention consider that it is essen
tial to success" AS the almost unani-
nous expression in favor of General
Noyes puts such contingency out oi
the question, it is unjust to Mr.. Wade
TO drag him into the field as candidate
against his repeatedly expressed wish to
be let alone.
Mr. WADEs position, as revised and cor.
rected, stands thus as defined by his last letter
"When l remember how firmly and
generously the great Republican party
of Ohio stood by me tor eighteen years,
during The most turbulent and perilcus
period of our history, should the Repub
lican Convention consider that it is es
sential to success to order me again into
the field, | could not disobey thei
mandate without base ingratitude, if no
dereliction Of principle"

The GovERNoRsHIP.-A survey of ne field
from the best standpoint we are able to gam,
seems TO urge the conclusion that Gen. Moves
Is the coming man, aud shat he will enter the
convention with stronger show of success
than any one talked of In this connection. He
has the express or tact support of a large
majority of the papers of the State, and with
whomsoevcr we have had any opportunity to
gather the sentiments OF the people, there is
nothing that comes athwart the preference of
the press. Notwithstanding this is the aspect
of the case, there is feeble current moving
in Galloway's favor. But this we think is in
no way formidable, or likely to become So
Franklin county, under the lead of the Co.
lumbus Journal, intends to make a demonstra.
ton for him, and to this end the delegation
from that county hayc been instructed to sup
port him in the ccrgsaion. There are those
who are still strnngly in favor of bringing out
the name OF GARFIELD, for the reason, as
they say, that he Is our best hold. and with
him there is no preadyenture. There is, how
ever, disposition to leave the General to the
enjoyment OF his present post, unless a state
of things should arise, rendering it necessary
to demand his leadership in the campaign
Notwithstanding the expression of our con-
vention, that Noycs is not the first choice of
this county, it is felt, that he is probably, the
available man. whose record is untarnisled in
any view, and whose gallant services in favor
of the republic, commend him to the rcmcn,-
branee a gratitude of the people. In point of
ability, he will not suffer in comparison with
the average of those who have heretofore ell
ed the gubernaiorial chair. We indulge but
little apprehension that we shall be able to an
nounce in our next, the name of GENERAL
MOVES as the cand date of the convention.

McCooK's WAR REcoRD.--The following is
the entire record of Geo. w. McCook in the
late war, taken from "Ohio in the War;"
page 6SS;
"Thirty-ninth Battalion, Ohio National
Guard, of Jefferson county, and the
Fifty-eighth Battalion, Ohio National
Guard, of Carroll county, were consoli-
dated at Camp Chase on the 10th of
May 1864, forming the One Hundred
and Fitty-sevepth Ohio Volunteer In
tantry. The regiment was mustered
into service on the same day, and on the
18th was ordered to report to General
Wallace at Baltimore. 1t was assigned
to Gen. Tyler's command, and, after re-.
naming in camp a few weeks, was
ordered by the War Department to Fort
Delaware. During the remainder of its
term of service the regiment performed
guard duty over from twelve to fourteen
thousand prisoners. At the expiration
of its enlistment the regiment reported
at Camp Chase, and was mustered out
on the I'd of September, 1864"
1t WAS said of the celebrated English
statesman, EdmNnd Burke, that he
monopolized all the talent of his family.
In like manner it may be said of George
McCook, that While he stood guard
other members of the family monopolized
all the fighting. .2Z,mesUiUe Courier.
