every case Of unfair and illegal con-
duct on the part Of supervisors and COM
missioners Of election. They may tally

take every precaution allowed by law and
consistent with the proper conduct Of the
election. and lie: everything be made pub.
lie. The returns Of the returning board
will be only prima .facie evidence Of what
they assert. Either House may set aside
any decision made in the returns OF its
own members. and the legal tribunals may
be appealed to for correction of other
errors. Congress will have an opportu.
nifty to revise the whole proceedings. as a
Representative is to be chosen from
every congressional district. 1t occurs
to US that our enemies fear rather their
own weakness thar want of fair dealing.
With the example Of 1872 before them
an example We never wish to see followed
it is not surprising that party which is
entirely responsible for such universal
cheating should be little suspicious.
Yet these very fears ought to be abated by
the reflection that the Republicans have
no occasion TO peril their position by
resort to trickery-:hey are strong enough
without it.

Horse ears IN pans.

Lucy II, Hooper, in one Of her readable
letters to the PHILADELPHIA Press, says: The
first American & tram ~ay," they call the
horse railroads over here, has just gone into
operation. 1t runs from the Place de
PEtoile to Suresnes, and the cars have been
crowded ever since it wa, opened. There
are great mplaints, however, about the
high prices; for French people are used to
going around on the tops Of omnibuscs for
the small sum of three sous, and they do
not relish having to pay six, whether they
will or no, the cars having no seats on top
This, think, is mistake in their construc-
ticn, for, owing to the comparatively mild
climate never in the extre me Of heat or cold
these outside seats are never untenantable,
as they would be with us for fully one-half
Of the year. 1t is great pity that Paris
has not at least one city railroad. The
broad Boulevard Haussman, for Instance,
would furnish an excellent thoroughfare for
one, and the omnibus service is so made
quate to tat .iteds of populace: that such a
road would be immensely useful and popu-
lar. But not only are TIE proprieters of the
omnibus lines opposed to such an innovation,
out al passenger Railways in Paris have to
enco unter more serious opposition, namely
that OF real estate in the city, for it is of
course to their interest to keep up the
present high rate of rents and they fear that
if the sui uros are broGght within easy reach
OF the business quarters in Paris. rents
there VIII rise, and those of dwellings in the
Heart of the city will proportionately fall.

A Brave Deed, by which Two Lives
Werc Saved.

To the already long roll of American rail-
road heroes must be added the name of
Thomas Furlong baggage master on the Old
Colony Railroads New Bedford express
train. Mr., urlong, happened to be riding
on one the switching engines in the Boston
yard which was backing ever the draw.
Just as the engine was entering the bridge
structure, Mr. Furlong noticed two men
starting to walk over the narrow timbsrs on
which the rails are laid, and seeing their
peril, he told the engineer to shut off; and
then prepared for the rescue of the men
One of them was struck by the engine and
thrown to one side, where he lodged, CON-
paratively uninjured. The other man had
proceeded further on the timber, and if
struck by the engine would have been
thrown lehsthwise on the rail, and co7se-
forward and taking the man by the chin rails
ed him from the track, with the intention of
carrying him across TO the other s.Ie; but
his strength being unequal to ttis task, be

Objection TO TWf0s.

Some amusing incidents occur among trav-
elers by rail, and the following We can
vouch for: One day last week a venerable
gentleman of this city was riding over 40
Eastern raircsd to Boston when lady en-
tered at one of the stations with child un-
der one arm and dog under the other arm
The car being we'll filled, she made for the
seat where the gentleman vas, proceeding to
stow herself child, and deg into the vacan,
seat, when the gentleman, who has great
aversion to dogs, blandly remarked to the
lady: Madame! l have NO objes,er to one
baby in this seat, but have the most deci.
ded objection to twins" 1t is perhaps need
less to say that the lady petulently moved OIL
to find another seat for herself and dog
