Brokers Bilked by Bogus Warrants TO

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. IO.-Several
thousand dollars worth of bogus city war
rants were purchased to-day by brokers on
Third street. The sufferers are C.. S. Bar
ney Il Co, Ackley 81 Smith, Morris &
Smith, and j. Z. Ridgeway. The war
rants cOunterfeited were those of school
teachers. The fnrgeries are so we'll ex-
ecuted that even the City Comptroller be-
lieved his signature correct. A man giving
the name of VIM. Randall, and a confeder-
ate, name unknown, who narrowly escaped
arrest, are the guilty parties. Mr.. Ridge
way discovered the swindle in time to pre-
vent his check for $1,000 being cashed.
The total loss is about $4,000.
LATER.-Fell, Kay & Co., and W. W.
Kuntz IL Co., are also victims to the bogus
city warrants. The extent of the swindle
reaches $4,000.

RIPPLEs AFrER THE TIDAL WAVE.

Cincinnati Commercial, Nov. 10.
Go back on the wings Of imagina-
ton to such a year as 1850, and think
of the danger of being then denounced
as a maniac for saying that, IN 1874,
South Carolina would vote the Repub-
hcan ticket and Massachusetts, the
Democratic.
THERE is one way to good times,
and only one way-a steady movement
for specie payments. 1t is the pangs
of paper money-of uncertain dollars
OF adjouIped enterprises--of heed
less extravagance-of improvidenee

country sufferers. The case is plain
the symptoms are notorious, and the
cure is to make the greenbaek equal to
gold, and give the gold and silver to
the currency.
Our Southern brethren, we fear, will
overdo the rejoicing over the defeat of
Ben. Butler. We shouldn't like to
have Ben. make an appearance as a
martyr. He would be an unpleasant
person as a martyr. Give Ben. a rest.
THERE are not now quite 50 many
hopeful and sanguine Republican can
didates for the Presidency as there
were some time ago. There are great
er number of ardent and expectant
Democratic candidates than there were.
We have sometimes wondered what
has become of Andrew johnson, of
East Tennessee, a very remarkable
fnancier. We think he was once an
alderman, or something, Of Greenevine,
In his State. We noticed the other
day that he was talking a good deal
about paying, or rather not paying,
the national debt, and that he was
speaking of himself in connection with
the United States Senate. We hope to
hear what has become of Andy.
THE able editors, being about
through with ''the lesson of the hOur,"
the versatile fellOw-citizens who are
thoughtful, and observe the movements

tions to our waste basket are numer

ONE-HALF of the six New England

of the votes Of these States are perfect

are involved in the Constitutional
amendments and tie maintenance of
the public credit.
After perusing some speeches re-
Gently delivered in Tennessee end Mas

there would be lively times in thiscoun

could be got to run against each other
as candidates for something, and to
stump around in an oratorical way.
The force, pungency and personality of
the language employed by these two

his district, with one exception, and
has wrought change of 10000 votes
when compared with the contest of two
years ago. The administration tactics
essentially aided him in the canvass.
The work Of putting him down was SO
largely oVerdone that it wrought
an immense reaction in his
favor. The Office holders swarm

was drawn down from the hills of
Berkshire, and Mr.. Blaine, with all the
prestige of his national power and Do
sltion, was imported from the East.
Never were greater odds piled up
against a candidate. Added to this,
money became almost an embarrass-
ment, so plentiful was the supply In

tacle was ever seenin Massachusetts, be-
fore; and, Judging from the result of
the experiment, none is likely to be
again for an indefinite period in the
future. Gen. Banks stood up brayely
in the face of all this, and with a ma
jority of 4,500 votes against him to
overcome, he came out of the contest
with $500 majority. 1t will be hard to
find a parallel to This achievement
But large part of his strength came
from sympathy with one apparently so
overmatched, yet fighting so pluckily.
