The fact that Mr.. Wendell Phillips. who wrote
these things and published them, though he
has now, less than eighteen months later,
joined the same ring does not detract at all
from their truth, although it casts lurid
light upon Mr.. Phillips's present rhetoric.

IN the United States Circuit Court, Judge
Woodruff presiding, there was curious and
interesting political discussion yesterday. The
application Of the Democratic (Tammany
HalD Committee for the appointment OF
United States Inspectors of Election brought
up representatives of the Apollo Hall faction,
who claim to be the only true Democracy.
Judge Woodruff did not give his decision, but
indicated no disposition to recognize the
Apollo Hall concern. No fair man could
call this knot of politicians party, or
even the representatives of party. " The
Apollo Hall Democracy" as they call them
selves, are nothing more nor less than
jimmy O'Brien's strikers for Grant. 1t
would he simply infamous to award all the
Inspectors to Grant, by recognizing his hand
full of Apollo Hall allies as the real Demo
cratic party of this city.

The effect of recent exposures in TIE
TRIBUNE of the disreputable character of
Senator James O'Brien has been to deprive
him of any chance of the Endorsement for the
Mayoralty of the Reformers on which he had
counted, of the support of honest and decent
citizens generally, or even the open nomina-
ton of the Grant Republicans. But the rumor
now abroad is that the latter viii nominate
candidate in the expectation that as between
three OF four candidates O'Brien may sneak
in. The desperate tactics which in Pennsyl-
vania obtain ind easements of gubernatOrial
candidates from the penitentiary goes further
here, and aim to create Mayors out of peni-
tentiary convicts This is an unanswerable
reason why the Reformers should join with
the Liberals in nominating for the Chief Mag
istracy of the city citizen of acknowledged
ability and irreproachable character.

This extortion having been exposed, this

Gentlemen who wish to unite the pursuit OF
politics with felony, riot, and crimes and mis-
demeanOrs generally, are advised to remove
at once to Pennsylvania, where Gov. Geary
has use for all who apply. We have story
this morning of the ringleaders of an aggra-
waited riot who were sentenced to the penl-
tentiary, but pardoned before they saw the
inside of It, on condition that they would
carry a certain Labor Union for Grant and
Hartranft. They Immediately proceeded to
carry out their share of the bargain by re-
solving themselves into meeting of the Union,
passing resolutions complimentary to Gov.
Geary, and setting up Labor Reform "
candidate for Congress, to draw off votes
from the Liberal and Democratic nominee,
At this rate the penitentiary will be empty
before the end OF the week.

The indications of squeeze in the money
market are increasing. While good mercan-
tile paper is selling at ~ to 1s per cent per
annum, call loans were yesterday pushed up
to per cent per day, and as high as 1 per
cent per day was demanded and paid for the
use of gold. During the month of May, when
money was easy, most of the time from to
2 per cent, and cash gold was
easy at to per cent for carrying,
the Secretary sold ten millions of geld
and bought an equal amount of bonds
and during the month of June, when money
was at but to per cent, and gold at per
cent and less, he sold eight millions of gold,
and bought the same amount of bonds. Now,
when the conspirators are compelling the pay
ment of such ruinous rates, the Secretary an
nounces that he will dole out one million OF
gold per week, and will purchased one million
of bonds. AS he has authority TO increase in
definitely his sales and purchases. will he
come to the rescue of the market, or will he
leave the public to infer that he is in league
with the panic makers

The problem of the Mayoralty begins to
simplify itself. Andrew II. Green has been
favorably regarded, and the invaluable ser
vices he rendered in the warfare against the
Ring, and in rescuing the finances of the
city from chaos. are his sure title to
the most respectful consideration of any
claims he may prefer. Henry G. Stebbins has
had hosts of admiring friends. Both, it is re-
ported to us, have agreed to waive their claims
in favor of gentleman whose eminent financial
standing and, not less, whose unsullied patriot
ism and unhinching hostility to corrupdonists
and Rings would make all feel that the City
helped herself in honoring him. 1t understood
that this gentleman. Mr.. VIM. Butler Duncan,
of the great house of Duncan, Sherman g.
Co.. has consented to be candidate, pro-
vided he can be assured of the support of the
respectable men of the city. There are many
other good names mentioned but there seems
now a decided tendency towards Mr.. Duncan.

The Associated Press thinks proper to telegraph
rumor from South Carolina that Gov. Scott OF that
Carpet bag ruined Commonwealth Threatens to sue
THE TRIBUNE for libel Gov Scott viii think better
of it. What The TRIBUNE did was TO report the
statements Of Grant man about Scott. They were
not complimentary but they az least as mild as
the statements current in NEWSPAPERS much nearer
Gov. scott's home. The Governor is shrewd man
in his generation, and may want the htte eclat
which guilty man gets when, with virtu-
GUS pretense Of innocence be threatens to sue his
defamers y but he is too shrewd to pursue the case
