Tho Action Of the City Radical Com
mltto0.


A question has arisen in Radical circles which
may give that party some trouble to settle sats-
fActorily. A portion Of the party express the
opinion that the Executive Committee went be-
yond their power In setting the election aside.
The decision was one OF the party rank and file
and the committee in their investigation had only
the power to throw out illegal votes and purify
the ballot boxes of frauds They might have
gone 90 far as to throw out the whole vote OF the
wards where frauds were proven, as is sometimes
DONE But they had no right to set the election
aside; nor had the candidates any more authority
over the matter. So that petition from them to
do this did not solve the difficulty the whole
labor Of the friends Of the candidates is thus
thrown away by the committee. Why should
ballot box suffers be given the power to cause
this difRcultyS Suppose some such people stuff
the boxes again and again, how often 10 the elec-
ton to be set asidep The whole thing is disgust.
ing and proves that the party managers are not
to bs trusted. Those who voted at the former
nomination are no longer bound to vote for
either Of the candidates or take any part in the
next nomination. There seems to be some objec.
ton also to restricting the choice to two Of the
former candidates.

colored man from North Carolina since the

New York World, and We make the following ex.
tract from the report as pubnsbed:

"Wkat reason do you assign for the sowness OF

"For the purpose Of stufing the bailot-boxes -
You Zee, on going into North Carolina we placed
Ourselves in communication with the leading Rad
lcal colorcd men, who in private conversation ad-
mitted that they expected from 5000 to 5000
majority In the eastern countless In addition TO
uninterrupted colonization, which would swell
the vote 70 any number they required. But when
they found that tho Liberal vote had unexpect-
edy increased IN the east they saw the necessity
OF withholding the Official returns from q sutfi-
balance the expected majorlties OF the west. This
Iattsr plan was first made known through the
declarataon OF prominent official at Washington,
who shall name at no distant day. who solemnly
averTed that there was no danger OF Caldwell
defeat in North Carolina while the Grant people
had the final supervision of the ballot. He also
made the Same declaration concerning the ballot
boxes in the hands of the officials in the city OF
Philadelphia in the forthcoming Pennsylvania
"WhAt effect will it have if Caldwell is declared
electsdY'
"why. it will be contested, and Merrimon will
be certain to win"
"What proof have you that Merrimon will sue
ceed in ousting Caldwell, il declared eectedI"
.'Why. plenty Of proofs. In the hrst place, it
can be proven that 10000 fraudulent votes have
bean cast in favor OF Caldwell"
"Ale you certain of this fsctf"
"Yes, cir, positively sure Of it. And, again, the
white people Of the State will not stand this glar-
ing fraud. They are satisfied Merrimon received
the largest number of votes. As l look at 1t,
fear that In the event OF the GRANTEES winning,
trouble viii ensue."
A correspondent Of the Tribune says:
Congressman WAddell reports to Gen. Barringer

alone will give the State to Merrimon If estsb-

The New York commissioners o.
pharmacy, appointed to examine and
license druggists, have made a report o.
their proceedings for the last six months
by which itappears that, although nearly
one thousand applicants have beenexami
ned, only six hunred and sixty.six have re,
ceived licenses as druggists, and OF these
not one in twenty succeeded on tho first
trial in passing the examination in all the
branches. Tho most decided failures
were in chemistry, toxicology, practical
pharmacy, and in reading The prcscrip.
lions and directions Of physicians which
had been written in Laten, to test the pro.
ficiency Of the candidates. Out of seven
hundred and twenty.eight applicants for
licenses, only three could read at sight
the easier Latin classics. Under the cir.
cumstances, 1t is remarkable that poison.
ing by laundering and ignorant druggists
is not more frequent.

The Story OF A Hotel Bin.

We find this amusing story in the New
York correspondence OF the Boston
Herald: ...
We are quite familiar with the extor-
lions practiced by hotel.keepers in this
country upon those Of their patrons who,
II Ia supposed, will endure any thing.
Not long ago young lady, who had
come hero from New England with her
mother, with u view 10 taking lessons in
music, went to one Of the uptown houses
to stay for week or two, until she could
board in q private family. The morning
that she was to leave she sent for the
bill for herself and mother--a lady of
nearly sixty, wloOccupied q room, No. as,
adjoining that OF her daughter. Miss -
was amazed TO find that her bill amount
ed IN $40, because she knew Il ought
not TO be more than 800 or $40 at the
outside. As no items were given, she re.
turned the account 10 the office, with the
request that the items should be inserted.
The bill went back with two or three
specifications, and the "sundries" set
down at $40. Once more she returned
the bill, demanding TO know what the
"sundries" might be- The clerk explain.
cd, through the servant, that "sundries"
was the polite term for drinks" which
so cnragCd the young lady that she de-
mandcd TO sec the extraordinary account

in due season, and the delicate, spiritual
looking gill confronted him by asking
him II he supposed she llad drank, In
eight or nine days, so worth Of liquor.
AS E.anyb be imagined, he was somewhat
abashed, and said, with confusion; ~
beg pardon, miss; it's q mere
clerical error. This is A; tho drinks
should have been charged to 45-the
next door, you sea room occupied by
an old fellow who drinks like o fish. u
R"Permit me TO introduce to you the old
fellow" replied Miss -, pushing open
the door, standing aiar, and revealing 10
his COMPOUNDED gaze one Of the gentlest
and saintliest looking old ladies he had
ever beheld. The clerk said nothing,
but dashed down the stairs, and in amin.
ute receipted bill was once more return.

ENORMOUS IIPoRTATIoNs.-Last weeks
imports Of dry goods ut New York, at
their gold cost, amounted TO $5,735,4
being the largest weekly total ever given
in the history of this trade. Tho long

ofthe enormous bulk. The largest pre-.

OF an excess Of five millions, was the third
week in August of last year when the
