From MANSFIELD, oHlo:-
A New Political Movement Misses Fire
the. First Time. ~.

| >''~a - -
A Workingmen's or Farmers Con
vention was held in the Court House
in this city yesterday The call. had
been numerously signed By men OF
both parties, and considerable inter.
est was manifested by our local pol
iticans as 20 what was it's. intention
and what it would result in. At the
hour fixed for the meeting, liza. Ma
large, representation was present,
including many of the most substan
tisl farmers of the county, The, con
vention was called to order by the
appointment of Henry An as Presi-
dent and General r. Brinkerhoff as
Secretary. Committees on permaa-
snt organization, resolutions, and an
order of business were appointed,
and the meeting adjourned until one
O'Clock. After the opening of the
afternoon session. permanent organ
ization was effected by calling John
G. Walker to the chair and General
BEinkerhofr was continued as Secre-
tary. The different committees re-
ported. The report of the Commit
tee on Resolutions, consisting of
twenty-five whereases, ETC., denoun-
ced the present political organiza-
tions as corrupt and unworthy of
confidence, repudiating the salary
grab and increase of salary, the Cred
it Mobiier, railroad, Congressional
and all other rings, the donations of
public lands, and extoling free trade
as a reform on which hangs our Ma
tional prosperity.
The reading of the resolutions
produced great excitement.
Speeches were made by General
Brinkerhoff in their support and by
Messts Graham, Roe and Wallace
in the most violent
terms the attempt to turn the Con-
yention over to the Liberal Republi
cans, in which General Brinkerhoff
the assumed leader and champion of
the movement, was haadled without
gloves. The opposition seemed to
come principally from the Republi-
can element in the body,the Demo
Gratis apparently enjoying the fact
that the Convention was likely to
break up in q row, and relieve them
of any danger in their local nomina-
tions shortly to be made. After a
full discussion the resolutions were
laid on the table by DECISIVE vote,
and the Convention adjourned,with
out platform, to meet again on
June 23d, at which time they will
nominate Legislative and county
ticket. The general impression
seems toprevail that too much Brin
kerhofr has nullified what might
have beer 4 formidable movement in
our local and State politics. '

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE.

It is said that the Chief Justice
Chase was the finest scholar who
has ever presided over the Supreme
Court. As Latin and Greek
scholar he was not surpassed by any
man in his profession. He read
French as readily as English; was a
finished italian, Spanish and Ger
man scholar. and thoroughly vers-
ed in English literature. His ap-
probation of and perfect mastery of
the works of Shakespeare, Milton, the
earlier British poets, and the later
exponents of the poetic art, Words
worth and others of the Lake
school, was something marvellous.

ried on the driving wheels.
A narrow gauge Baldwin locomo.
tive, with six three foot driving
wheels in, working order. weighs 3S,
600 pounds, the whole of which is
on the drivers, so that the nineteen
ton narrow-gapge engine has q great
er adhesive weight by 1000 pounds
than the twenty-nine- ton engine ON
the ordinary gauge.
Equal speed is attainablc, with the
same safety. upon, the one as the
other. The proportion of base to
height of a narrow gauge locomotive
with three-feet driving wheels, is
somewhat greater than that OF the
ordinary gauge with five foot wheel
and the speed of piston of a. narrow
gauge engine running at the rate of
3G milesper hour is the same as that
of the ordinary gange at 40 miles
per hour,or & difference of only one

than the ordinary speed.,..
As regards the adaptation of such
O guage to your business, it will I'm
doubtedly be urged that it increases
the cost of frelghts exchanged with
other roads; but to this it can prop.
erly be answered that the reduction
in cost per mile of transportation on
the narrow gauge will much more
than compensate for the cost of re-
loading.
