THE END NOT YET.

The end is not yet Who can forctell
the disasters and suffering the country is to
undergo before values become settled? 1t
may be that want of confidence is at the
bottom of the difficulty, but dishonesty
opens the breach, wider and wider. every
day. The defalcation, the fraud, the mis-
appropriation of securities, the mismanage-
ment, whatever each person may be pleased
to call it, in the Lake Shore railroad COM
pany, has been a terrible blow to conf.

times, men of standing.and reputation can

such cases, is ordinarily the better course
to trust to the reputation of lifetime for
integrity and services to the public to vim
dictate their cha racter against idle r,lmors
and baseless charges, but now all is changed.
The public mind is fearfully agitated by
the actual financial situation, by the sus-
pension of banks and trust companies, the
defalcations of persons IN places of especial
trust and responsibility, and the discovery
of crime in high places. Charges of the
gravest nature are made against individuals,
heretofore of unblemished reputation, con-
nected with the management of the Lake
Shore railroad; charges, seemingly, at
least, sustained by facts, and yet not a
word is vouchsafed in reply The uneasi
ness is further increased by reports of
troubles in the New Jersey Southern rail-
road company, hitherto considered sound :;
by deficiencies" as it is considerably
termed, in the treasury of the Toledo, Wa
bash and Western railroad company; and
this is not all. We hear daily of the clos
ing up of manufacturing establishments,
the abrogation of conditional contracts,
counternandng of orders, the discharge of
workmen, etc, all of which fortend a
period OF almost unexampled financial dis
aster. To add to the gloom, if it were pos

pecuniary embarrassment of one of the

of resolves which are expected from all
political conventions in reference to their
adversaries in power. The republicans,
moreover, went up to Utica, and actually
resolved that the democratic party was COM
posed of men whose accession to office
would be calamity to the state and
menance to the union"-which resolu-
tons, or some of like import, is considered
an important part of the duties of political
conventions. In view Of these facts the
suddenly virtuous Republican Indignantly
exclaims " A more vulgar, demoralizing
and shameless trade than this il would be
difficult TO imagine we are curious to
g see what the decent republican voters of
" New York will say to il at the polls. 4"
Without inquiring into the political moral
ity or immortality of coalitions, we would
respectfully ask the RepuJlican if this is
not question of whose OK is gored ? If we
have, heretofore, read the RepuJlican un-
derstandingly, it has not been always, and
is not today, opposed to coalitions. Day
after day, it advises coalitions for the pur-
pose of clccting this or that candidate, or
furthcring or injuring some particular
scheme. The honest republicans who as
sembled in Cincinnati in May, 1872, were
as far separated from the democrats as the
antipodcs, in every political principle, yet
the RepujHcon brought all of its conceded
ability to bear in bringing about the coali-
ton, which formed the opposition during
the campaign. Charles Sumner was elect
ed to the United States Senate by one of
the most remarkable coalitions known in
history-a coalition between ultra abolition
lists and free sellers, on the one side, and
the most abject and subservient tools of the
slave power in the north, on the other The
republican party was nothing but a coal-
ton, and the resolutions adopted by the re-
spectlve national conventions of its two
principal elements, two years previous,
were boiling over with dcnuncations the
one of the other. If, as we firmly believe,
politics should not be carried into local
elections, how is the result to he attained
with out coalitions, so long as one party, or
the larger part thereof, refuse to make any
thing but distinctive nominations? We
know nothing, in particular, in reference to
the character and standing of the candid
ates named by this " coalition" save those
for judicial stations, but we understand that
they will more than compare with Tam
many nominees. This, however, is ne-
thcr here nor there if a coalition is right
in one place, it is in another, the only diff
ference being whose OK is gorcd

WHOSE OK!

Years ago, Noah Websters spelling book
was standard text book in schools, and no
ones education was ''perfect'-as it was
called-without familiarity with it from
It's alpha to its omega. 1t was better au-
thority upon all points, so far as it went,
than even the most remarkable work of
modern times by the same authorize re-
fer, of course, to Webster's Dictionary
has ever been or can ever hope to be. We
doubt, very much, whether the cause of
education has been subserved by its Danish
ment from the school, room and later
and so called Improved" spelling books
introduced in its stead. 1t was not all a
mere spelling book. With what delight
did the school boy of thirty, forty and fifty
years ago, dwell upon those wonders, to
him. in the art of engraving which embel-

farmer, but the lawyer quickly changed
his mind when he learned that his OK had

difference in the world whose OK or bull
was gored. 1t is years since we have seen
the old spelling book and we may have
somewhat mixed the ownership of the bull
and OK, but the principle is the same, and
the Republican will readily recall the de-
tails.
We call the Republicans attention to this
old story, because it seems to be afflicted
with such holy honor at the coalition be-
tween the republicans of New York City
and the Apollo Hall democrats, which it
designates as "a pretty shameless transac-
tion." Its denunciation is based upon the
proposition that the delegates from Apollo

1t is somewhat amusing to witness the
difference of opinion among those called
leading tinancicrs,' in reference to the use
OF silver in place of fractional currency.
One thinks it good idea, another don't
this one says it is practicable, the next one
that it is impracticable next comes one who
says that it is the first ste? toward resump-
ton and he is followed by the opinion that
its effect will be to postpone the day when
specie payment shall be once more in order.
In all these differences of opinion. we
think Brown Brothers, of New York, have
about the correct idea in reference to the
relative convenience of silver change and
fractional currency, as we call it. One of
the firm, i'll response to an inquiry, said, in
substance, that silver would be q novelty
for some time, and people would carry q
few pieces to jingle, or pay few pieces
over the counter, but as it is inconyenient
to carry in great quantities, and even less
convenient than fractional currency in
small quantities, ii would soon 20 out Of
use again. We doubt very much whether
the people of the United States will ever
be willing, again, to have silver as the only
medium with which to make change.

Luccttc Myers and Kate StOddard.
THE GOODRICH MURDER.

The Brooklyn police say that they are in
possession of clues which will lead to the
apprehension of every one connected with
the Goodrich murder. Lucette Myers has,
as before, been leading the police on false
scents, and they are almost ready to be-
lieve what others have long thought, that
she is systematically fooling them. Two
men have been arrested and taken before
Luccttc for recognition on suspicion of be-
ing the Bleach" who wrote TO Chief Camp
bell giving some facts about Lucettc Ny
ers-her haunts and habits. One of these
was Mr.. LEIGH, formerly resident of
Plymouth, and who knew Kate Stoddard
there. His story alone substantiates none
of Lucette's assertions, and that only in
unimportant particulars. Neither he nor
the other was recognized by Lucette as the
authors of the letter, and both were dis
charged. The police now believe that Lu-
cette herself wrote the letter in the hope of
securing the reward. They acknowledge
that they cannot use her as witness, as
she would contradict the confession of
Kate Stoddard Monday
The trial was postponed to admit of
further search for the correspondents whose
letters were found on Kate Stoddard when
arrested. The object is to clear up in every
particular the mystery of the death of Char
les Goodrich, even to the complications
thrown about the case by the discredited
stories told by Lucette Myers.
The Jail is still kept in ferment by the
annoying behavior of the two women.
Kate Stoddard continues on her dignity,
and makes ii disagreeabe for the prisoners
and officers. She rescnts any but the po-
lltest mode of approaching her, and insists
upon being addressed as I" Miss King or
Mrs. Goodrich" Lucette Myers also de-
velops very fastdious tastes, and complain
ed to member of the Grand Jury of the
quality of her food and the manner in which
she is treated. On Sunday she refused to
yacate her room, in which Divine service
is held, and preparations were completed
without any further attention being paid to
her She wrapped herself in sheet and
blanket and sat on the bed throughout the
service.

HORRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT. As the
second Atlantic express, due at Albany at
$40 Sunday morning, approached Herki-
mcr, the conductor observed blood flowing
down the side of n sleeping car Investi-
CATION was made and the body of man
was found on top of the car, with the face
and upper portion of the body mashed to a
jelly. The body was lowered from the
car by means of rope and, while in the
act of lowering, whisky flask dropped
from his pocket. The conductor thinks
that the man got on the car for the purpose
of stealing a ride and that he must have
been struck by bridge.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH. Sunday morn.
ing officer Phelan of Brooklyn found James
Quinn's body near beer saloon in Sixth
street, L. ID. 1t was supposed he died of
apoplexy or heart disease, but II has been
found that his neck was broken. Quinn
had been carousing in Meyers saloon, and
was put out by the bartender or Meyer
himself nobody seems to know which.
1t is thought death resulted from blow
given by one of these two men, or else
from the fall of Quinn to the floor while
intoxicated. Meyer was arrested, but the
bartender fled. The place has bad repu-
tation, as it is charged that man was
killed there a few months ago by blow
upon the back of the neck.

died, leaving 100000, but none to Thomas,
as he had been dissipated and chose COM
panions against his parents wishes. One
OF his sisters, however, placed $1,000 to
his account in bank. Two weeks ago
this sister died. Thomas was intoxicated
at the funeral and went from the cemetery
with several of his old companions. This
was the last seen of him, until on Sat
urday morning his body, mutilated and
covered with tar, was washed ashore at the

Secretary RichardsOn,s Plans,

Secretary Richardson will pay out two

coin this week as an experiment, there be-
ing that amount of bullion ready for coin
age, If gold should go up silver would
not be paid out, nor would it be if it was
to be sold again to bankers for speculative
purposes. New York parties have already
applied for silver, but the Assistant Treas
urcr there refused to make any conversion

1t is argued on Wall street that the pro-
per way to resume specie payments is to
begin by paying out silver. The small sill

The STOVE TRADR.-The stove trade in
this city, says the Troy Press, at present is
beginning to decline little, and the opin-
ION OF the various manufacturers concern
ing its cause and the future prospects very.
some OF the shops are running on half or
thrce-quarters time. Again some of the
largest concerns say that they are running
on iull time. One prominent manufac-
turer stated to Press reporter that the
sales of his house for the last fifteen days
were more than double the sale for the cor
responding period of last year. Money
Will undoubtedly be easier before the first
OF January, but it will not benefit the trade
much at that late day. There is a good
supply of money in the Western market.
The dullness in this trade comes back to
the same old story-no confidence.
Dealers are buying very cautiously, only
just enough to supply the immediate de.
mand, and it is not probable that the trade
will revive much this season. Eddy, Corse
" Co. are only running three days in the
week. This firm has heretofore run about
eleven months in the year, while the others
have not worked over seven or eight
months. They have added to the capacity
of their shop, and have manufactured a
great amount of work this season.

Physician Shepard made post-mortem ex-

caused by fishes. He found the clothes,

violence upon the body, every organ being
in normal condition with the exception
of the stomach, which bore traces of irreg-
