pay business is the apparent inability OF acute
and-as people have hitherto supposed-high-
minded men to comprehend the essential
character of the transaction. Mr.. Hoar ad-
mits that the money is too dirty for an hon
orable man to handle Mr.. Roosevelt of New
York, Mr.. Bright and Mr.. Whitthorne OF
Tennessee, Mr.. Mccormick and Mr.. Wells OF
Missouri, Mr.. Price of Georgia, and one or
two others. virtually acknowledge the same
thing; and yet they assume that 1t
il not too dirty for an honorable
man to give it away. SO Senator Morton, and
few like him, are understood to admit that
il was wrong to vote the money, and would
be disgraceful to accept 1t, and they VOW that
they do not intend to touch it; yet they leave
it on deposit to their credit in the hands OF
the disbnrsing officers of Congress, where they
can get it at any time or their heirs can get
it in case of their death No, gentlemen; that
will not do There is only one honorable. way
to dispose of that back pay; put 1t back
where it belongs.

fashion plates of the magazines, the neat
handed Phyllis Of the country is charming at
least for change. There is chance that
she may have something left of girlish inno-
cence and simplicity-that she viii not
talk of books which she does not
understand and possibly has not seen
that she cares nothing for the modes, is
without the slightest notion of the opera, and
finds enjoyment in the simple incidents of the
house and the village. Then there is also the
manly simplicity of the country, by which we
do not mean ignorance and stupidity, but a
natural good sense and innate verify which
Justly estimate the conditions and phenomena
of human life. If we do not find upon the
farm the most fastidious taste, or the most
artistic cultivation, or the most elaborate man
ners, we are pretty sure, where there is no
pinchiDg poverty, to encounter cheerfulness
and hospitality and the best refinement OF
perfect sincerity.
: It is a proof of the goodness of Providence
that every condition of life has its advantages
and its peculiar sources Of happiness and II
is true wisdom to be contented with that con-
dition to which we are called. After all,
most of us thrive best in the soil in which we
are well planted. 1t is not the houses ana
the streets which make the city, but those
who frequent them; it is not the acres whlcn
make the country, but those who cultivate
them. He is wisest who best Utilities his cir
cumstances, or to translate it, his surround
ings,-and happiness, If we deserve 1t, VIII

ing 10 something, held sort of free and easy
outside Mass Meeting in the evening. Judgs
Cowlev WAS again in the chair, but as this
meeting belonged to everybody, and did not
pretend to net for anybody in particular. His
Honor appears to have relaxed little his
judicial rieiflity. The Convention in the morn
ing had refased to indorse any candidates, Dut
the Mass Meeting was not so reticent' ana
pledged the General its earnest support at tho
polls next November. This, of itself, would
have been nothing. Mass-Meetings are always
pledging themselves to do something next
November and are always, before that
bright aud lively month has arrived, forget
ting all about it,
1t was then that Mrs. DR.. Mulligan-whose
pardon we politely beg for having kept her 50
long waiting-walked to the chairman's desk,
not for the purpose of feeling the pulse OF
that officer and of prescribing for him soms
mild sedative-not in professional, but a
political capacity. We have heard Of Pytho-
ness upon tripod, but Mrs. Dr.AAligan
stood upon her "limbs,n and in a low and
sweet, or, perhaps, in loud and hoarse voice.
exclaimed: al second that motion"-the mo-
ton, that is, to stand by the General next
November AZ second that notion" ex-
claimed she, "for KNOW that Gen. Butler is
"our proper candidate" And here the re-
porter tells us that the medical lady drought
cher hand down on the desk with decisive
"whack,n which reminds us of that fine Irish
song:
80 whack. Judy oFiannigan.
Dearly she loves her Looncy Mcrwolter"
Another report says that Mrs. DR.. Multi
gan also doubled up her fist" and that there
was ga general connection" We should
think so. Especially when irreverent boys in
the gallery began to make illusions to the
color Of this heroine's hair. The anti-Butler
men appear to have been fairly frightened
out of their boots. The Generals certificate was
rapidly "put through" and the Mass Meeting,
with many howls, resolved itself finally into
its original elements. The only question left
to be considered is the accuracy of Mrs. DIR.
Mulligans diagnosis She knows that the
General is the proper candidate "-and now
the reader also knows why the Salary Grab
Resolution was laid on the table in the Con-
yentiOn.

4 SUGGESTION 10 CONTROLLER GREEN

4 SUGG ESTTON 10 CONTROLLER GREEN
BY special and most reasonable provision
in the Supply bill of 1873, the State tax of this
and every other county in the State Is due to
the State Treasurer on OF before the 1st OF
May. The quota of the County of New-fork
for this year is between nine and ten million
dollars, and up to the present time only a
million and half dollars have been paid.
We are at loss to comprehend why the pay
ment is not completed.
BY Controller Green's financial statement
for the month ended July 81, we see that he
had issued up to that date only SS,40OOOO OF
Revenue bonds in anticipation of the taxes OF
the current year. He has authority to issue
to the full amount of the taxes to be collected,
or $4,000 900. Why, then, does he not issue
SS,0OO,OOO more of Revenue bonds and finish
up the payment of the State tax at once
The condition Of the State Treasury, with the
sinking funds provided by the Constitution
for the redemption of the funded debt
used up to pay current expenses, mas
been a disgrace to the State these many years.
Not less disgraceful is the cool impudence
with which many of the County Treasurers
disregard the laws requiring prompt pay
ment of the balances in their hands belonging
to the State. We need reform in many OF the
details of financial administration, in the ma
ton, in the State and in the city. The same
promptness and punctuality should be observed
by the city in the discharge of its obligations
TO the State as the rules of business require
of merchants and bankers of good standing.

would be a good place for mining, but not

The appeal which is made to the President
to put stop to the operations of the gold
clique is, of course, a stock-jobbing business,
and pitiful cry of the gamblers who have
been oornered. Very little sympathy will be
had for either clique in this fight. 1t is the
merchants and farmers who are to be pited
and who ought to be protected If the Govern
ment is to interfere at all. But the Treasury
clocks up" gold, and is party to the process
which, it is claimed, threatens another minia-
ture Black Friday.

BY disaster on the Chicago, Alton and ST.
Louis Railroad, eleven people have been killed
and thirty-fve wounded. Of this latter num-
Der, it is thought that several will not long
survive their injuries. The report which we
have received puts the entire responsibility
for this accident" on the conductor of a
freight train who disobeyed orders, went on
when he should have waited, and SO ran into a
passenger train coming down the road VI
course, this man is the guilty party, If the re-
port be true; but he is said to have de-
camped; therefore there can be no PREPARATION
for this shocking loss of life and cruel mann
ing. There will be heavy bills OF damages
brought against the managers of the line, I'M
doubtedly; and the fugitive conductor may
be caught but, after all, the total loss of hui
man life is one which we must contemplate,
it would seem, without any prospect OF at
TEMPT at compensation.

CARD OF THANKs.-We the members
of the Sodalty OF the Holy Angels
tender our sincere gratitude 10 the
members of the st. Patrick Mutual
Relief Society, Tor the kindly feelings
they have manifested towards our 'ourg
but fl ourishing Society. Last year they
generously paid our way to Steubenvllle
and procured Tor us band at consid-
cradle expense, and this year, the So
ciety has graciously invited us to take
part in the imposing procession that
this day has graced the streets OF our
CITY, and reflected immortal honor on
the ilustrious Irish race which cOnsti-
tutes tina, decorous and justly esteemed
body. But whilst we congratulate the
we'll diapnsed Of our race ard citizens,
on the success o. Their efforts to perpet
uste and propagate the Faith Of our
fathers, may we not justly reproach
others Tor their in1ifferentism with re-
gard to Faith and Fatherland. We
now number 100 members, having thus
steadily increased within the last two
years, vet we see no reason why the
number should not be at least 800, ex-
cept, indeed, the sordid ind ference OF
some parents who know not the advan-
tases of such Societies. We cannot
close these remarks without rendering
to our good President our grateful ap'
probation of his paternal solicitude
and burning zeal for our welfare both
spiritual and temporal.
Signed in behalf o. the Sodality,
