SAN FRAxc1soo consumed last year
10, 600, 900 pounds Of Ice, at l cent. per
pound, aggregating 100000. Before
the railroad rendered IL possible to get
Ice from the Sierra, the Sitka Ice Com
pany supplied the coast at 8 cents per
pound. Thus, says the Times, the rail-
road, since 1t was opened, has saved to
San Francisco $1,000, 900 In ice alone.

TIE POPE COUNTY TROUBLES.

The wrongs inflicted upon tho people of
Pope County, Arkansas, are too much for
withdrawing. Gov. Hadley recently ap-
pointed q committee of gentlemen, most of
them opposed to the Liberal party, to go
down to the scene of tumult and make re-
port upon the state of things which they found
there. Their report is q remarkable docu-
ment. They cannot find the county officers,
the friends Of Powell Clayton, the murderer
Dodson and his party, innocent OF the trou-
bles which have brought chaos into that
region. They cannot find the citizens whom
Gov Hadley would like to keep DISTINGUISHED,
guilty of lawless conduct So they prefer to
seem ignorant of all the causes OF the pres
ent state of things, and contine themselves to
making suggestions as to the method OF
curing it. Even the measures they propose
clearly enough indicate that, if they had
honestly followed tho dictates of their con-
sciences, they would have told some valu-
able truths about carpet-bag government AS
It was, they declined to say anything
about the origin of the difficulties, but sug-
gested as measures for the relief of them the
resignation of sheriff DodsOn, the pardon of
those who had resisted his authority, and the
disarmament of the militia which has been
hitherto acting under his orders. This is a
virtual, though not candid, confession of the
infamy of this tool of the Clayton Ring. If
he was not the cause of all the bad blood,
why dismiss him7 If resistance to him was
factious and riotous, why pardon it'll If the
county militia was properly raised and en-
ployed, why should it be disbanded7 Finally,
the most startling proof of the burning sense
of wrong felt against this red-handed outlaw
Is seen in the fact that these quiet citizens,
20 whose earnest desire for peace the Com
mittee do full justice. refused TO pledge them
selves to keep the peace, SO far as Dodson
was concerned. lie has made every resident
of Pope County regard him as q wolf whose
head belongs to the rifle of the first finder.
Our readers have not forgotten the origin
of these troubles. 1t was thought advisable,
to carry out the purposes of the Grant poll
tcians of the State, that Pope County and
others should be placed under martial law.
To accomplish this Dodson, the Sheriff, and
Hickox, the County Clerk, arrested two in
offensive citizens at Dover, and pretending to
fear an attack of bushwhackers, shot these
two innocent men, and then hurried to Little
Rock to complain of the turbulent condition
of the county. These things of course pro-
duced great excitement in the neighborhood,
which was not allayed by the advent of several
companies of ragamulllns under Dodson's or
deTs, calling themselves tho militia of the

uR. DAHEYPORT IN TROUBLE.

On the affidavit of Supervisor OF Elections,
Francis p. Healey was arrested for false regis
tration and sent to Jail by Mr.. Commissioner
Davenport. The trial showed that the at1daVlt
was based on the merest bar-roOm gossip the
case broke down utterly, and defendant was
discharged This case does not prove anything
against the law, except that it should be ad-
ministered with great discretion nor against
Commissioner Davenport, except that ne has not
discretion. The bail required of Healey was
excessive, and his imprisonment, under the
circumstances was the extreme OF harshness.
Certainly, the case Of the accused Is one OF
great hardship it is said that he intends to
institute legal proceedings against those VINO
have been engaged in this official persecution.
He seems to have good case OF false I'M
prisonment; and we sincerely hope that the
ignorant zeal of the Commissioner and his
deputy marshals will receive effectual rebuke~-
Yet Commissioner Davenport, who pleads
that he has no time to attend to the examlna-
ton of the arrested persons brought before
him, has leisure and inclination to write
personal defense for the newspapers. lie
quotes from the Act of Feb. %, 1872, in order
to show his authority for making domicniary
visits. That Act, according to his own show
ing, makes it his duty ito cause the names
"of registered persons, whose right to reg
lister or vote shall be honestly doubted, to
"be verified by proper inquiry and examlna-
4" ton at the respective places by them as
signed as their residences" Acting under
this color of authority, Mr.. Commissioner
Davenport boasts that his officers g visited
"every house in the City of New York, and
"obtained the names of more than 100000
"persOns." In Heavens name, Mr. Commits
sloner, are there more than 100000 persons in
the City of New-YOrk "whose right to register
cor vote is honestly doubtedp If not then
you are convicted out of your own mouth.
Why was every house in the city visited I
This man is not himself, worth mo-
ments consideration but, clothed as he has
been in the authority of law, he represents
higher idea than an aide-de-camps shout
der-straps, which he seems to fancy he still
wears. Davenport is nobody; the United
States Commissioner is an officer of the Law.

purer or moro forciblo English. No President
in our history has been able to express him
self in public with such aptness, originality,
md perfect self command as the Liberal can
ddate. who recently made hundred speeches
in n fortnight, and never once failed in taste
or discretion. But this Is little matter,
say our opponents. II it were, it would
still DO an indication Of something

writing wisely cannot exist but in one whose
habits of thought are exact and systematic
Tried by every criterion, Horace Greeley Is

WANTs HIS CASE BROUGHT UP AFRESH.

WAN1S HIS CASE BROUGHT UP AFRESH.
Mfr. Blaine repeated, last night, for about
the thirtieth or fortieth time his old jokes from
Dundreary, and his old defense on the subject
of the Kansas Pacific Railroad. Since the
Speaker is not satisfied to let his record rest,
we purpose to restate its admitted, essential
points.
Under circumstances which we will not re-
cite, he left Pennsylvania for Maine. He had
taught school and was poor. lie next edited
local newspaper, and was still poor. He
next went to the Maine Legislature, where he
certainly had small chance to make money.
He next went to COngress,-on a salary at
first, we believe, of three thousand dollars u
year. He has been in Congress ever since,
having no other occupation, and living appa-
rently up to his salary; and he Is now re-
puted, at home, rich man.
In sundry suits now pending, some of them
in this city, it was alleged b. claimants against
the Kansas Pacific Railroad that its stock had
been squandered in corruptly influencing legis-
lation at Washington and list Of the shares
thus gratuitously distributed had been intro
duced A copy of that list, certified by the
lawyers as accurate, came into and remains in
our possession. Therein appeared, among other
names, about the middle OF the second page,

REECHER on PACIFICATIOM.

There is no end of the scom with which the
Grant journalists treat the doctrine of concilia-
ton, with which the Grant orators cover the
idea of pacifcatiOn as adopted and defended
by the Liberal party. Will tho reader DO good
enough to tmn TO the extract which we print
this morning from letter written by the
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher to the managers
and promoters of the Cleveland Convention,
Aug. so, 1864 meeting of soldiers and
sailors designed to promote "a generous
"and magnanimous policy toward the
"people of the lately rebellious States"
We beg special attention to the vigorous
and manly utterances of Mr.. Beecher at
time when the peril of the Union was
still recent, when the reverberatiOns of the
battle were still muttcring in the air, and when
the wounds of those to whom Mr.. Beecher
was writing were yet unhealed. Then it was
that this reverend gentleman "heard with
"wonder and shame and scOrn the fear of q
"few that the South, once more IN adjustment
"with the Federal Government, will rule this
"nation." Then it was that he smartly con-
trasted tho condition of the North, "rich-
"neyer 30 rich" with that of the South,
"poor-never before so poor" Then it was
that drawing by no means exaggerated pic
ture of the enormous resources of the Loyal
States and comparing it with Southern wreck
and ruin, lie manfully exclaimed "In the
"presence of such contrast how mean and
"craven is the fear that the South will rule
" the policy of the land" Then it was that
he summed up the matter and his own letter
by saying: "For the sake of the Freedmen,
"for the sake Of the South and its
"milions of our fellow cOuntrymen, for
"our own sake, and for the great cause
of freedom and civilization, urge the imme-
date reunion of all the parts which Rebellion
"and War have shatteredn These are words
of wisdom these are expressions of an hon
Orable philanthropy; these are the natural SEN
timeDts of o sincere teacher of Christianity.
There was q question then as to their time
illness, since the irreversible guarantees of
freedom and of good faith securing suffrage
TO the freedman and payment TO the National
creditor had not then been imbedded in the
Constitution. On that point THE TRIBUNE
expressed its apprehensiOns and demands at
the time. That secured, Mr.. Beecher's utter
ances became the platform Of the party he is
to-day most incomprehensibly opposing

MIR. LITTLEJOHN VINDICATED.

No meaner or more malignant attacks have
been made upon any public man than those
of The N. y. Times upon the Hon. ID. c. Lit
tlejohn. To injure bis chances of an election
to the Assembly from the OswegO District 1T
resorts to the basest and most unjustifable
falsehoods, and even cOndescends to employ
the corrupt and notorious " Tom Murphy" to
invent them. The motive of these attacks is
too apparent to merit contradiction but when
his enemies charge Mr.. Lttlejohn with in
triguing for the management of the Midland
Railroad. and with having received the Office
in consideration of his political influence, they
make statement so VIGOROUSLY untrue as to
excite surprise and disgust even among their
own ranks.
Mr. Littlejohn only accepted the Presidency
of the road after repeated and urgent solicit
tations from the friends of tho measure, and
has continued to occupy the position at great
personal sacrifice to himself. His labors in this
enterprise, and his devotion to its interests
and to the interests of his district, are known
to every intelligent man in the State. The
unexampled success Of the enterprise is mon
ument to his genius and energy, and fully
justifes the estimate which the public have
formed of his long and useful service to the
State and of his character for business capacity,
integrity, and unselfsh devotion to the inter-
ests confded to his keeping. The people of
Oswego know that they can trust him, and do
not need any outside dictatiOn.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1872-10-31

The Massachusetts, Historical Society, at roceni
meeting, was greatly gratfed by receiving from tho
Rev. A. P. Peabody Of Cambridge "a Minister Of tho
Gospel of Forgiveness what purported to be tho
identical cane" with which Mr. Brooks assaulted
Mr. Sumner We suppose that the Society accepted
this interesting relic with duo gratitude; but
we would suggest, a. Mr. Sumner is .
member of the Society, that it would be
considerate to have the cane put out of sight
whenever the Senator may DO expected to at
tend. Not that no need feel much about the matter
after all, for an inquiry shows that tho Rev. DR..
Peabody's relic Is spurious one, the matter having
been investigated with great gusto by the Boston
newspapers. The cane is described as Of ebony.
with sword attached to the handle. Now every
body knows. without reading tho long extracts
from the testimony at the trial which the newspa-
pers see tit to give that tho cane which Mr Brooks
used was of gutta-percha, and that it was broken
into pieces at the time of the assault; so tha' inc
Rev. Dr. Peabody's accuracy was about upon o par
with his good TASTE
