The Railroad Commissioners have advised
railroad corporations to do their own express
business. There is an Objection, they say, to
railroads undertaking to assume the risk of
conveying large sums of money, which bust
ness might be left to the express companies,
but they consider the transportation of all
parcels of merchandise and express matter
Is properly and legitimately belon gng to
railroads to do. The roads should receive the
profits of the express business over the charges
for common freight. There is now great
want of security, and not so good come ctions
between different lines to insure promptness
in the delivery of good, AZ there would be il
the business was done by the various railroad,
themselves. So say the Commissioners.

the accident, the Professors young wife and
little daughter were on the ground and wit

The alarm caused in England by tidings of
the Queens serious illness at Balmoral, at the
close of the week, was greatly intensified by
inferences that she was worse Saturday; par
tally drawn from the cessation of all reports
partially from the summons of the Prince of
Wales and Prime Minister Gladstone to her
presence, and partially from the recollection
that her father died of disease of the heart.
Short as her illness has been, it is no secre,
that the extreme agitators have taken advan.
tage of it to rally their followers; and Odgel
and Bradlaugh, with others who commended
the Commune and set Hyde Park in an up
roar, have indicated what they are prepared
to attempt should an opportunity be givel
them.

T4MH4NY DETHRONED.

The action of the New York democratic
State convention in denouncing the Tam
many Ring is the effect of arousing OF
public opinion by the exposure of their
frauds upon the city government OF New
York. No party could possibly survive
under the load of Tammany corruptions,
and so the party condemns and casts them
off. A faint effort is made, it is true, to
throw some of the odum upon the repub-
lican party, but it affords no apology for
the acts of Tweed, Hall & Co. A robber
would plead with poor success in any of
our courts, as justification OF his crime,
that some body had left door open which
invited him to walk in and steal, 1t is no
defence that door was open, if it were
so. 1t is the stealing which is criminal.
That is what Tammany and the democrat
ic party must answer for.
The motive in the passage of the resolu.
ton against Tammany is for the self-pres
ervation of the party. The leaders knew
that democracy was doomed if they failed
to do it. With united republican party
against them they were sure to be defeat
ed, whether they repudiated Tammany or
not, but the prospect OF division upon the
republican ticket leads them to hope that
throwing Tammany overheard may save
the State. 1t was the only expedient OF
desperate men. 1t may accomplish its OBJ
iect, as far as the present State campaign
is concerned, but will not remove the
stigma which rests upon the democratic
party on account of the piracies of the
Ring, or lessen the general loathing with
which that party is viewed.
In the dethroning of King Tammany
the public will rejoice. The brand which
has been placed upon the Ring by the
hands of its own friends cannot be rubbed
out. Brought to the bar of judgement by
the republican papers of New York, Tam
many is compelled to listen to its solemn
condemnation by the very party for which
it performed all its baseness, and which by
its gangs of repeaters. roughs and frauGu-
lent election practices, it has carried to
victory in many contests. The recent
town elections in Connecticut show evil
dence that the hand which sustained de-
mocracy in those localities has withheld
support, squirting strongly towards the
decay of Tammany, and the blasting in
fluence of the exposure of its wickedness.
If we see that New York city can hold fair
elections, and the legislature ofNew York
can legislate honestly and fearlessly, we
shall have strong hope of the State.

there is reason to trust the future has in store
for yon. Situated as you are here on one Of
the main arteries between the west and east,
between the great industries of the plough
and the spindle you must aid in their exchang-
es and thrive with them. Soon these chan
nels will be opened wide and pouring through
your precincts streams of men and merchan-
disc that will need your furtherance and
must contribute to your growth.
Located here in the centre of New England
to what dearer spot can you turn that men in
habit? Beginning life rich with the honors of
your mother town whose influence through
her schools and her scholars is of itself an In
heritanee, with such examples as Lawrence,
Boutwell,, Hoar, what@nay you not hope for Of
usefulness in the councils of the state and
nation? @@+@
Contrast our condition with that European
nation, alternately torn and imoverished with
wars, credit it as you may to the better edu-
cation of the people, and you will realize the
value Of the example old mother Groton has
set you, SO worthy of your ambition to fol-
low. Build schools for your children and
find talent to teach them, then intelligence
and integrity in prosperous and happy homes
will be your sure reward.
Associated as you have made me with your
veal and wo, wish might be allowed to con-
tribute from my means such as they are, some
thing toward this first foundation of the pub
lie good.
Gentlemen, have detained you too long.
Oppressed with the fear, that do not de-
serve the distinction you bestow, pray God
to make me worthier, and to smile upon you
with His perpetual blessings.

A prolonged discussion took place Yesterday
in the House Of Lords, upon a motion of Earl
Russell for an address to the Queen against the
ratifcotion OF the treaty, unless the arbitrator
are bound only by international and British
laws existing al the time Of the American war.
Lord Russell declared that the treaty was one
sided, and though demanded for the sake of peace,
twas dangerous precedent, and unwise neglect
by Great Britain of her American colonies,
whose fishery interests were sacrificed. Replies
in defense of the treaty were elected from Lords
Granville, Derby, DeGrey, the Duke Of Argyle
and others. The only decided support given to
Lord Russell was by the Marquis of Salisbury,
who, in the course Of his remarks, declared that
the treaty sacrificed the rights Of neutrais to
American susceptibilites. The weakness Of the
opposition among the lords being fully demon
strated, the motion was withdrawn and the
debate closed.

Synopsis for he past tceRty-rour hoars-The
weather remains without important changes
west of the Missouri. The highest pressure Is
now found In Tennessee, and the barometer has
very generally risen along the Atlantic coast and
south of the Ohio river. The storm of Monday
morning cleared away in the afternoon and even
ing on the Atlantic coast, and clear weather has
very generally prevailed during the night from
Iowa TO New England, and Southwark, excepting
a light rain on the Gulf. A very sudden fall in
the barometer was reported Monday afternoon
In Wisconsin and Minnesota. No reports have
since been received from the Northwest stations,
but is probable that high winds, with little or no
rain have been experienced on Lakes Superior
and Huron. The barometer Is now very low on
Lake Ontario.
observation-disclosures weather win probably
continue during the day from Virginia to Michi-
gan and Southwark to the Gulf. Fresh North
westerly winds are probable from Lake Erie To
Like Superior. The low barometer on Lake On
tarior will probably move Eastward, with brisk
winds from the Southwest and Northwest from
Lake Erie to Massachusetts and New Jersey
High winds will probably prevail for a short
time on the coast from New Jersey to Massachu-
fet.s.
