CATCuING THE EARLY TRAIN.-Onc of
the greatest delights of boarding in the
country for the summer is the pleasure
man derives from his efforts 10 catch the
early morning train by which he must
reach the city for business. When he gets
out of bed he looks at his watch, and finds
he has plenty of time so he dresses lcis-
urcly, and sits down to breakfast in calm
and serene state of mind. Just as he
cracks his first egg he hears the up-train
lie starts, jerks out his watch, compares
il with the clock, and finds it is eleven
minutes 81 ow, and that he has only four
minutes left 10 which to get to the DEPOT.
In fearful hurry he tries to scoop the
egg cut of the shell, but it burns his fin
gers, the skin is tough, and after fooling
with ii moment it mashes in hopeless
mess, and he gets his fingers smeercd. lie
drops the whole concern in disgust, grabs
hot roll, and scalds his tongue with a
quick mouthful of coffee then he stuffs
the roll in his mouth, while his wife hands
him his satchel, and tells him she thinks
she hears the whistle. He plunges madly
around the room looking for his umbrella;
then kisses his wife as well as he can with
all that unswallowed bread dis!ending his
cheeks, says goodbye to the children in a
lump, and makes dash for the door.
Just as he goes to the gate he finds that
he has forgotten kis dustcr and charges
back after it, snatches it up, and tears
down the gravel walk in frenzy.
He does not like 10 run through the
village, because that would be undignifcd ;
but he walks furiously. lie goes faster
and faster. Half way down he does hear
the whistle for certain. He wants to run,
but he knows that he will start up the yell
| low dog there by the sidewalk if he does.
Then he actually sees the train coming in
at the depot, and ho feels that he mist
make rush. He does. TIE yellow dog
becomes excited and tears after him.
Six other dogs join the chase, one after
the other, and bark furiously, and frclic
about his legs. Small boys contributed to
the excitement as he goes past, by whist
ling on their fingers, and the men at work
on the new meeting heuse knock off to
lock at him and laugh. He feels ridlcul.
Gus, but he must catch the train. He gets
desperate when he has to sclacken up un.
til two or three women, who are on the
sidewalk discussing the servant-girl ques
tion and the price of butter, scatter to let
him pass. Hc arrives within one hundred
yards of the depot with duster flying in
the wind, coat-tail horizontal. and the yell
low dog nipping his heels just as the train
begins to move. He puts on extra pres
sure, and.resolves to make that train OF
perish. lie reaches it as the last car is
: going past. He seizes the hand-rail, il
violently jerked round once or twice, but
finally lands on the step on his knees, anc
is hauled in by his coat-col.ar by The
brakeman, hot, mad, dusty, with hl'
trousers torn across the knees, his shin'
bruised, and three ribs in his umbrella
broken. Just as he gets comfortably int
the car the train stops, backs up on thu
siding. and lies there for half an hour
T while the engineer fixes broken valve.

What Has Been Gainedt

II is no doubt good thing that PoME-
ROY of Kansas has been beaten, and another
man has been elected to the Senate in his
place. PoMERoy is one of the chefest rep
resentativos of that immense system Of
fraud and corruption which assumes the
name of the Republican party, and seeks
to make its rottenness and its robberies
permanent in this country under the cover
OF moral ideas and high-sounding human-
tary and religious pretousions. 1t is salts
factory that he and his hypocrisy and his
bribery and plunder stand ms rejected and
condemned by the Legislature OF his State.
But when we come 10 inquire whether the
man they have chosen TO succeed him is
worthy to sit in the Senate and make laws
for the people, we are confronted by tesu-
mony of most discouraging nature.
The NclO York Times reports that the
evidence i'm the case of DELAHAy, United
states Judge for the District of Kansas,
against whom articles OF impeachment
have been filed with the House judiciary
Committee, shows that INGALLS, has been
guilty of bribing that Judge. Last winter,
according TO this authority, INGALLS, him
self testified under oath that he had given
| THOMAS Osborn, now Governor OF Kansas,
| and son-in-law of DELAuAY, draft for $500
to secure a special hearing for some clients
| of his in New York; that the fee was accept
| ed by Osborn, and that the Judge did what
| his son-in-law was paid for. The $500 draft
was upon New York, but ISGALLss clients
| refused to pay IL, and it was returned to
| its maker; whereupon INGALLS,, having
received the judicial merchandise he had
| bargained for, refused TO make good the
| draft, pleading that he had given il for
corrupt purposes; In short, that it was in-
tended to be bribc. These facts, il is
said, are proved by his own testimony
| given in the ease of DELAHAY.
Such being the antecedents OF the new
Senator from Kansas, IL will be interesting
to see how the senate deals with him when
| he presents himself To tn G his seat A
man who, according 10 his own affidavit,
has been guilty of an act so Infamous rs
bribing n Judge, would not be tolerated IL
| the Senate were governed by n delicate
sense of what il due to public morality
and decorum. But considering the sort Of
men who without "a question have been
| admitted to become Senators IL Is not
probable that anv one will move to reject
INGALLS,. Blibe-giying and bribe-taking
are the opposite of sins in the estimation
| OF the senate

may congratulate ourselves that reform
has begun indeed.
An epstle devoted to Standardization Is
seldom wholly free from vanity, and Mr..
Tu.DEN's letter Is such an epistle. Its
author has undoubtedly devoted many
months, as he asserts, constantly, labori-
ously, and disinterestedly, to the service
Of the public of this city. He claims
no reward for his toll except the esteem
of his fellow men, and it is only be-
cause an attempt has been made to
deprive him Of this, that he now speaks.
Yet his labor of love fails to make him
always logical for he tells us that, de-
spairing of the New York judiciary and
bar, he advised % son OF FRANCIS HERMAN,
who came here to begin a career, 4" to re-
turn to Utica rather than confront the
degrading competition to which young
man would be exposed True reform was
never born Of such n spirit rs this.

The Story Of Long Letter.

Yesterday morning remarkable letter
by Mr. SAMUEL j. TILDEN was published
in several newspapers of this city, though
not in that to which it was addressed-the
NelO York Times. 1t purports to have
been called forth by the attacks OF that
journal upon Mr., TILDEN in connection
with the overthrow of the gigantic muni-
cipal combination now universally known
as the Ring, and is at the same time a de-
fence of his conduct and history of the
reform movement in this city from its
commencement in 1871 up TO the present
time. With the personal controversy we
have nothing to do. The history, although
well told, is for the most part entirely
familiar TO our readers; but we shall call
attention to few portions of il which seem
TO merit comment.
We are at a loss TO understand why no
mention is made of the well-known FOLEY
Injunction suit. II will be remembered
that this was the first decisive blow struck
at the Ring. without it, all the heavy
thought described by Mr.. TuDEN would
have accomplished nothing until
months later; without it, Mr.. Justice
BARRETT who acted as one OF the counsel,
would probably still be at the barr with
out II, even the subsequent removal of the
Judge who signed the order might have
proved an iinpossibility. But we believe
this is not the first time that Mr.. TMDEN
has forgotten the FOLEY injunction.
Among the interesting facts which he
commentaries, however, IL a statement,
attributed to the Hon. MOAN DAVIS, now o
Justice OF the Supreme Court in this city,

of the State Senate were bribed 10 vote

by the payment OF ten thousand dollars

Mr.. Ottendorfer Using Plain LanEuage-Iu

Of the Board Of Supervisors yesterday gave free
vent tn his Indignation over the conduct OF this
paper In criticisinR his actions Alderman

10 his wisdom and purity OF purpose Is
dispelled, because he has chosen TO raise an OBJ

him Tweed an honorable man, and Affirming

tieman produces a circular OF the Tweed Testi-
moniai Association, which has for It's object the
erection OF statue for Tweed, and among the
signatures Ii that of Mr. Ottendorfer. IL has
often been the case that Mr.. Ottendorfer's name
sent. When the letter OF the Tweed Testimonial
Association was shown to Mr.. Ottendorfer he
declined TO sign IL. But his name was used In

avowed on It's publication This protest was at

able lie. IL will be remembered that list Of
New York newspapers was published some time
ago With the sums paid to each for county
printing. The New York Stddts-Zcitttng received
less than any other nrst-class newspaper. IL Mr..
Van Schaick was informed that this paper has
received large patronage from the city, Mr..
Ottendorfer would most respectfully tell him
that he has been falsely Informed. II he de-

OF the facts, let him consult the books In the

City Judge Sutherland, presiding in Part IT. Of

GARFIELD's LATEST Jon.

Engineering the Montana War Claims
Through the House OF Rcprcsentntiyps-
A ScnndalOus and Transparent Fraud.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The House to-day
by large vote put through a scandalous and
transparent fraud, the Montana war claims. In
the spring of 1867 Gen. Meagher Acting Gov
ernor Of Montana, on the prctence OF defending
Gallatin Valley from Indian incursons, called
out several hundred men as a militia force, and
kept them In the field several months, during
which time great expense was incurred for
clothing, subsistence, transportation OF sup
plies, &c. Gen Sherman, in his annual report
for 1857, denied that the Government was liable
for this and all the evidence that has been pro-
duced sustains this decision. 1t was in reality a
pretended Indian raid-a fight gotten up by GER
tain rascals TO get "A chance to furnish supplies
at outrageous prices.
After the supplies had been furnished and the
bills lled against the Government for the same,
the claims wore sold out TO certain parties here
and In New York for few cents on the dollar.
The whole thing II a job from beginning to end,
and powerful lobby has been pushing the
claim all winter. To-day, with Gen, GARFIELD as
It's chief advocate, II was put through. Garfield
resisted all attempts to call the yeas and nays,
and when he could not succeed he invariably
lodged or else sneaked up TO the clerk and had
his vote recorded. He is IA pretty fellow to claim
that Oakes Ames deceived him.
