New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1874-04-06

Gen. Butler, in a colloquy in the House, on
Saturday, once more sounded the slogan of
the paper-mOney men. He is a disbeliever in
a coin currency, and, in harmony with the
fantastic theory of his school, believes that
paper currency is based on the national
prosperity" OF course, this sounds well; it
has the. favor of Fourth of July Grafton
about it. But when the orator was asked
where the paper note became connected with
the national prosperity and resources, he had
nothing to say except that the bal
lots of the people had something to do
with 1t. If the ballots of the people
are like those Of the Essex statesman,
the connecting link between the note and the
cash Is more than ever an uncertain thing.
Mr.. Maynard, however, thinks the note all
right, provided the "prOmise to pay" could be
taken off its face. These are the financiers of
the House. In the Senate, where the financial
bill is to be taken up to-day, certain Senators
are reported to have seen new light. They
have been to the White House; and it is
whispered that the rank and file of the infia-
tionists are expecting flank movement from
that direction.

1t was natural to expect that so large SUN
80 that awarded the United States by the
Geneva Arbitrators would cause a great deal
of quarrelng. The struggle has fairly begun,
and some of the applicants for share in the
division threaten to defeat the work of Con-
yress altogether unless their claims are met
Considering how little has been done with
the award and how dilatory Congress is, there
is at least reasonable prospect that legisla-
ton for a distribution will be postponed for
this session.

curious note which comes from Russia, is of s
visit which Humboldt once paid to Iszym in Siberia
Carrying letter of introduction from the Governor
General he went to the house of the chief govern
ment functlonary of the place, H. Skotin, who was
apparently sort Of Goodman Dull of immense

the Governor-General heard of the sduant was in q
long letter from the wise Skotin:

and other political criminals under my charge. Your

Easter Sunday, though it came with the
keen airs of midwinter, was very generally
observed in this city as high holiday of the
Christian church. 1t will be seen by the re-
ports elsewhere presented how universal was
the observance of the day. The representa-
tive sermons which we reproduce ON the
fourth page of THE TRIBUNE have nearly all
of them the fervor and JOY of the season of
Easter.

The Board of Charities and CORRECTION
cannot afford to refuse inquiry INTO the
charges brought by one OF tnelr nuihpc'
against the management of the Blackweiis
Island Penitentiary. 1t is alleged by Com
missioner I.ambeer that noted con-
Wet WIN. NJ. Tweed - has comforts
and conveniences denied to less lucky
rogues; and, furthermore, that he is aiio"eu
liberty which amounts to an invitation 10 es-
cane. But the Commissioners refuse to lnves-
ticote these charges. If they persist In this
refusal. it will be considered that the state

II will always be question of great interest
as TO whether any of the far off orbs we see
in the evening skies are the abodes OF SEN
tent creatures. In the lecture of Mr.. Proctor,
which we report on the second page, he has
thoroughly discussed this question. His own
views have largely changed since he wrote
the fascinating book "0ther Worlds than
"Ours," and he now thinks it highly improbable
thai any of the larger members of the solar sys-
TEN can be the abode of life, though it is
not impossible on some of the satellites of the
outer planets. The whole theory of the posi-
bility of life in other parts of the universe is,
however, placed by modern researches upon
new footing, and an inquiry that once was
bounded by the members of our own solar
system is now extended into the hmltless
fields Of stellar space if each star is enclrcled
by its own planets there is every probability
that frequent instances occur among them
where the necessary conditions for the sup
port of life are present

SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1874.

From the general tone Of the
taxpayers in Linn county, We are
inclined to the belief that the Inde-
pendent ticket, State and county,
will get a good healthy majority
next Monday. We had feared, all
along, that there was large body
of Republicans who intended to
support the State Republican ticket;
but the late news has been so uni
formly one way, viz, that the
election lay between Grover and
Campbell, that the strongest, bed
rock Republicans, have given up
their prejudices and will vote the
entire Independent ticket, from
Governor to Coroner. This is as
it should b. Certainly the People
have suffered enough through the
tonr past years Of Grover Wadkinds
misrule, to enable them to vote tor
even q less competent man than Mr..
Campbell. Linn county can be set
down almost certainly for the H.
dependents.

ne can0l0ates Oh the Demo.
cratic ticket in this county, aided
by their friends, have been bnsily
at work ever since the adjournment
of the Democratic County Con-
vention, using every means in their
power to buy, coax or drive voters
into the support of the ticket put
up for them}by the Convention.
Money has been spent freely, all
sorts and styles OF rnmors have been
put III circulation by them to III
jure the Independents and secure
votes for the Democratic ticket
Every man who had formerly voted
with the Democracy was haunted
night and day, and every induce
ment offered him to "decline" to
rVn on the Independent ticket.
When it was found that the Tnde-
pendent candidates were not to be
scared, coaxed, driven or bought
off, but we're determ ned to stand
by the People, whose candidates
they were, these tricksters then re-
sorted to the last, mesneSt and very
lowest dodge Of political loodlums
who see defeat staring them in the
tace, to.wit: circulating the report
that tile Democrats had all re-
signed, leaving none but those who
formerly affiliated with the Repub-
lican party on the ticket. The only
truth in the whole report was the
withdrawal of Mr.. Cook, as a can.
didate for the State Senate, and his
plaCe'was immed lately FLIED bya well
qualified and intelligent gentleman
"a gentleman who has heretofore
voted and acted with the Demo-
cratic party. With the exception
ofML Cook, who had good and
sufficient reasons, as he thought,
for taking the course he did, there
has not been nor will there be any
withdrawal--aDd every man on the
Independent ticket will work faith
fully to the lsSt hour for the sdc-
Cessofthe whole Independent ticket.
Whenever . man tells you that any
candidate on the ticket has declined
to run, set him down at once as
one not well informed or as q
chronic liar.

running Luo DetnocEatlC party VI
this county. and the treasury otthis
county, tor their own selfish pur-
pose, it is lett for us only to ex-
anime the cause, and find the
remedy.
The cause lies in the great pm.
ponderance Of the Democratic party
in this county, and the slaoishness
with which its members have SUBJ
mitted to the party lash.
No matter with what base treach-
cry they had been treated in its
conventions, they must forgive the
irjary, pocket the Insult, snd vote.
the ticket, for the sake ofthe party,
and their own record. And they
have done SO. The ring has carried
the party in its pockets, like a
faithful "Elgin," confident that it
would undevistingly beat the time
to their winding.
A nomination being equivalent
to an election, the strife was
changed from one for principle,
between De.uocrats snd Republi-
cans, to one for@epoils, among
Democrats alone.
There has been very little labor
with fact and argument TO persuade
Republicans to turn from the error
of their ways, but Democrat has
worried with Democrat, and all
manner OF talsehoods have been
told, and all manner OF bargains
and combinations have been entered
into to defeat Democrats, until for
years, nothing but the party lash
and our old-time prgudices, and
reluctance to change our party rs
sociations, has kept us together,
when we should have been work
ing harmoniously together for the
common good.
The remedy is plain. To COM
bine against the ring in convention
would be making ourselves as
guilty as those whom we condemn;
besides, a defeat would not be per-
manent; they would try harder next
time, and the battle would never
be decisively won. They must be
taught that a nomination procured
BY fraud Is not north hauing.
That anh a UictoTy leads to
certaindetsdt. Then the ring will
dissolve tor want Of any induce
ment to remain united.
And all other rings, inCipient or
developed, will see the result and
profit by the lesson. Then, per-
haps, "offiCes will be left to seek
the men," and the people will have
some voice as to who shall rule
over them; and the county fund,
contributed by all, for the good Of
eli, will be expended for the bene-
fit ofthe whole people.
To be sure the whip will crack,
but the old cry Of "sOrehesd," 50
often applied where it was often
deserved, does not apply to us.
We simply refuse to be longer
asIaves OF the ring" or "Cfthe lamp"
A good ticket, fairly nominated,
would have been elected, and
probably can be in The future; but
Ase ring must be beaten, aud we

Yesterday, on the train on the Erie
railway which runs from Rochester 10
Dansvilie, and reaches here at 10 A. NJ,
q most singular circumstance occurred
When tho train was about three miles
from this village, the passengers in ono Of
the coaches were alarmed by the singular
actions Of a lady who gave her name Ms
Mary p. Rhoades, Of Adrins. Mich, aud a
relative of Rev q. L. Seibt, Of Olonn
N Y. She was leaning over seat, Ut
toring the most piercing cries. A gentle
man rushed to her and asked tho trouble
She made no answer but continued 10
scream the louder. When the train
reached this village she was helped into
the waiting-room, and n gentleman present
procured n glass Of brandy, which being
given to tho lady, she appeared 10 recover
some. A lady standing near at this june
ture gave scream, and pointing TO the
head Of Miss Rnoedes, tainted. On eK-
animation a striped snake was observed
coiled around tho cbignon Of the lady.
How IL came there was a mystery, and
only explained by the theory that 1t had
got into the car and took refuge under the
cushions of the car scat Miss Rhoades
stated she felt something crawling up her
head, but could only give vent 10 her feo'-
ings in screams aud until !, was taken
of did not herself know what the matter
was. Tho snake was killed, and the affair
produced no little Excitement for the time.
