1t is AVERY common practice for
passengers, when train is APP
preaching its destination, to leave
their seats and crowd into the
aisle as if it was important that
each one should get out first. This
practice leads to great confusion,
and if the car happens to stop sud-
denly 10y coming in contact with a
post placed to receive it,. they are
often thrown pell neil upon each
other, and if nothing worse a most
ludicrous sceneispresented, but of
ten bruises are received and some
times broken limbs result. Per
sons who retain their seats until
the car stops escape all risks and
are at most only a few seconds be-
hind their more impetuous neigh
bors. These suggestions are
worth the consideration of the
travelling public, and their observ-
ance, we are sure, would save many
accidents.

lowance of ,disIoyal and otherwise

lowance of Sdisloyal and otherwise
fraudulent claims, ranging from
amounts not greater than 81, 500
or $4,000 to 100000, and even
more, and the various detective
agencies in use by the Govern
ment bring fresh revelations every
day. Those engaged in the ex-
animation of these claims speak
almost despairingly of their abil-
ity, even under present favorable
circumstances, of discriminating
between the false and the true. 1t
is no exaggeration to say that with
a change of administration such
as the Southern adherents of Mr..
Greeley hope for, the desire as well
as the means of discrimination
would be lost. No false claim on
which a dollar in money or labor
has been spent is content to die
by rejection. 1t sis not dead, but
sleepeth," and will awaken again
and again at every opportunity
uTstil the lapse of time shall wear
it out. All the rejected claims
under. the successive Republican
administrations since 1861 will
lye-dormantly perhaps, but they
viii live nevertheless for from ten
t. twenty years to come, waiting
and hoping for the promised
''snrning" in every "long lane"
The Southern railroad compan-
les expect to he paid for the use
and damage OF their roads by the
United States if Mr. Greeley is
elected. Their claims, so far as
known, amount to about hundred
millions of dollars.
The late owners of the cotton
sold to the Confederate Govern
ment, to be used in sustaining it's
credit abroad, except to be com
pensated in full, and at "cotton
famine" prices, for all that was de-
stroyed or sold by the United |
States if Mr.. Greeley is elected,
on the ground that the sale to the |
Confederacy was by compulsion
and without any valuable consid-
Grafton. This would take anoth-
er hundred millions before getting
through with the settlement.
The residents of the South,
who are not included in the care
fully limited bounty [extended by
Congress to the Unionists of that |
section, hope to be paid in full for
the damage and ravage of the war
brought on by themselves, if Mr..
Greeley is elected. This class of
claims would largely exceed the
others in amount.
Thus it is plainly to be seen the
enormous reductions effected in
the public debt during the first
term of President Grants admin
istration are in imminent danger
of being swallowed up at once,
without beginning to exhaust the
catalogue of multifarious claims
in the event of the success of his
for the. control of ma
tional affairs, and while the solid
men of commerce and industry
are filled with gloomy apprehen-
sions of disaster to the business
Of the country they and all other
classes may well cast an anxions
thought upon the threatened de-
pletion of the public treasury for
the payment of unrighteous claims
against the Government.

VOLUME 10
EMPoRIA NEW s.
ONLY ONE YEAR AGO /!


Tie following article, from the
Tribune, only a year ago, shows
Mr.. Greeley's opinion of General
Grant before he got the Presiden.
tial fever:
Maybe, one of these days, the
journalists who make it their par
ticular business to traduce the
President will become discouraged
at their repeated failures, and turn
to some honest pursuit. General
Grant, from the beginning of his
career, has been persistently as
sailed in the most shameful man
ner, and after every assault, his
character has shone forth not on
ly Hntarnished but brighter than
before. For his first military sue
cess he was rewarded with calum-
MES, which threatened for a time
to destroy him; he held his peace,
and false testimony broke down of
itself, leaving his reputation high
er than ever. At every critical
period OF the war he was attacked
again; before Vicksburg; in the
Wilderness; at Petersburg, and
perhaps we shall never know how
near we came to losing his servi-
ces at a moment when he alone
could save our armies. Under
these trials he was still silent, and
the people penitent for their tenn
porary injustice, honored him at
terward with all the more enthus-
iasm.
When peace had been declared
he was traduced with redoubled
malice by all classes of his politi-
cal opponents from Andrew Jack
son down to The World, and the
result was his election to the Pres
idency by most magnificent ma
jority. In his present elevated
position the attacks have been in
cessant, but though he has kept
to his sensible resolution of hold
ing his tongue, his enemies have
been uniformly and Immediately
confused.
We never knew the propagators
of such stories to acknowledge
their falsity after they had been
proved, but this makes but little
practical difference, for the peo-
pie know the truth, and win hon
or their President all the more for
the obloquy OF which he has been
the victim. Judging from the
past, we should say that General
Grants enemies were taking the
best course to insure his election
for another term.
