died. having amassed fortune. When his
will was read it was found he had set apart
q large share of this money to charitable
purposes-not, however, in the usual ways, by
which the dead are glorifed quite a. much az
posterity is benefited. He did not endow q
chair in college OF build church or library
to be called by his name; he left neither en-
enlargement to art, literature, nor science.
What did he know of art, literature, or
sciepcei He gave no aid to doctrinai re-
ligion being, we suspect, nothing OF q theO-
Logan. What he did know was the poor and
sick about him, and their needs, and he
left his money here and there, i'll the
places where his sound common sense told
him it would be of direct and certain service
to them. The pleasure Of the old mans lie
had been. it seems, not, as his educated GUS
toner would have Judged in guzzing beer
or dOg-fghting, or any Of those pursuits whlch
we usually hand over as their appropriate
property to less cultured men than ourselves,
but in the happiness Of little children. He
humored this gentle within of his even in
death. He set apart sum for the use OF
public institution where poor children are re-
ceived and cared for; the interest OF the
money, he ordered. should be devoted to CIV
ing them good dinner and unlimited delights
on the Fourth of July, " fireworks included" and
to q second grand holiday on Christmas,
dinner. tree, and presents for every child.
There is something human and hearty enough
in these last words of the poor butcher to cover
tine selfish greed and vanity of a hundred other
wills. Notice the defiance of all tyrannical
MAYORS and Councils who have prohibited
crackers and rapturOus Catharine wheels: we
fancy the jolly old fellow went out of life with
a knowing nod and wink to the boys he had
made happy forever, and will chuckle in his
grave when the day comes, that these beggared
little chaps can defy all authorities, ana nilAthe
asylum with glory of gunpOwder anu oiue
lights beyond all Others in the city. When
Christmas day dawns, too, and gives to the
Door babies whom the world has used so hardly,
not only the shelter and food which are their
necessity, but the unnecessary miraculous Dlt
of fun, the treat of candy, the wonderful
tree. the little gift, all that tender father
would have planned to remind them OF
Him who loved them best OF ALL
we like to believe that the Old
mans fatherly heart will feel their happiness
and share it wherever he is, and that what
ever may be his part in those lives beyond
the grave, each Christmas will bring HIM
nearer to that Elder Brother who took the
children in his arms and blessed them. The
legacy to us too would be worth more than
to the children if it should help us to look
through the coarse faces aud gross bodies
about lis to find in each the wholesome clean
thought, the honor, the friendly humOr-the
one feature which at least is always left to
tell who was the divine father of us all.

COY. DIY,S VOTE IN 1879.


We do not know that the result If the cleo
ton of two years ago has any particular bear
ing on that of tho one to be held month
hence, but inasmuch as some most astonishing
misrepresentation have been printed, it is
we'll enough to review the result of the former
contest Mr.. Tilden probably appreciates the
fact-if he does not, the Republicans will be
much obliged-that he is running against man
who as Governor of New-YOrk has achieved
more renown than any of his predecessors
within the memory of this generation. He
also doubtless understandable his support
ers seem to ignore-that Gen. Dix was pop
ular man before he had been tried as Gov
ernor. With the result of the present
contest the statistical information which fol-
lows has nothing to do. A great many things
have changed in the two years, but that Gov
Dix made the best run in 1872 of any man on
the Republican ticket is a fact which, we
should have supposed, no man in his senses
could well dispute. There were then six Off
GERS to be voted for by the whole State
President (through an electoral ticket, Gov
ernor, Lieutenant Governor, Canal Commits
sioner, Prison Inspector and Congressman at
Large. The Republican candidates received
the following aggregate votes and majOrities !:
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1874-10-03

THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC, from which the
above figures are taken, gives Dix's vote and
majority at 1900 less than the other almanacs
and the official canvass The difference arises
either from typographical blunder in the Of
fetal canvass or from an error in the footing
up of the vote. Our figures are the only cor
rect ones. Dix's majority is almost identical
with Grants, yet he receives 5,Oea more votes
than Grant. It appears that about 10000 who
voted for other candidates on the Demo
cratic ticket did not vote for Mr.. Greeley.
If we suppose that 1000 Republicans
voted for Mr.. Greeley-that being the
number which Grants vote falls behind
that of the Republican candidates for Canal
Commissioner and Prison Inspector-we may
add 1000 more to the number Of Democratic
recusants Compared with any one Of tho
