OF the News.
The London Ne,cs Of the 9th OF January, on the
subject of the news Of Livngstone's death, says
At the meeting Of the Royal Geographical Society
last night entire disbelief was expressed in the
present news by Sir Barte Frere. The cause Of
death as given Is exceedingly likely; but the pro-
ceedings which are said to have followed that
event are almost wildly improbable. The embalm-
ment OF dead body Is about the last thing that
the Nassick boys or any African tribes would
think OF. They would simply dig O hole in the
ground and bury IL at once. They are however
still Iurther said to have preserved the body In
salt Now, apart from the vast weight OF body
thus preserved, itself an obstacle to Its being car
Is more than dOubttulaw neither salt would preserve
1t at all IN such climate. salt Is, moreover, ex-
ceedfngy scarce in that part Of the world, and It
would be impossible Tor SUFFICIENT quantity OF
that valuable continent to be gathered for the
purpose, even were the natives willing to make
what, were 1t suggested would probably appear
to them to he u most useless waste. These details
therefore, give the rumOr very doubtful LOOK.

A representatlye OF the HERALD found yesterday
the establishments Of Messfs. Kerles & speiss
guarded by two policemen stationed at the foot Of
the stairway leading to their factory in No. 81
|. BOwery The foreman OF the firm, hurley bull
key, brawny, bOny Bohemian Of Six feet four
inches, at least in his stockings informed
the reporter that some twenty Of the
hands who had struck were up stairs
at work, and that the policemen had
been sent for to prevent possible breach OF
the peace. as it was feared that the people who
are still locked out might attempt the use OF force
shop. No such attempt however, appears to have
been made. The policemen said they had no
orders to escort to their homes the workmen who
there would be any need or doing so.
The workmen who continue on strike have de-
themselves and not go back to their former en-
plOyers. They claim that only six women and one
man are at work in the factory which they left.
The Bohemian branch OF the Cigarmakers' Union
met last night in Kopta's saloon, No. 525 Fifth

mass meeting OF the Fur Cutters Socie ty was
held last evening at the Tenth Ward Hotel. Mr..
+. Glasser President, called the meeting to order
ana explained tne OpJects IN view IN holding II.
He stated thatit for the interest OF every man
in the business to at once enroll himself in the
society, to guard against any probable combina.
ton OF the employers to take advantage OF the
present dull season and reduce their wages.
Mr.. H. FROM next addressed the meeting. He
drew the attention of those present to tue condi-
ton in which they are placed owing to the fact Of
their being without combination. He asserted
that the majority OF the wOrkmcn are compelled
to work. on an average, eighteen hours per day,
for q sum that does not average SIS per week, and
that II the workmen TAIL to support the society
pi0yers.
Mr.. LEHMAN made stirring appeal for comblna-
ton, at the close Of which several new members
were enrolled.
1t is the intention Of the olcers Of the society to
use every possible means to enrol every workman
in the trade in the society. After congratuiatory
expressions suggested by the large assemblage
the meeting adjourned.

Vice President wilson.
CHICAGO. Nov. l0.-A New York spe-
cial gives q report Of an interview with
Vice President Wilson. He did not con-
slider that the result OF the recent cleo
tons indicated q thorough or permanent
revolution in public opinion rthat this
result f~orsshadowsd the conclusion OF
the next Presidential campaign, bat the
Republican party to regain what 1t has
lost, he said, must adopt n wise. liberal
and high toned policy; 1t must crowd
its ranks with all the worthy elements
II can secure and must be careful not to
ALLEVIATE any good men from the party.
The result OF the elections shows the
necessity Of a liberal and mag
unanimous policy; il shows that
the Republican leaders must be states
men; the need OF the time is statesman
ship. With a proper policy and with
the best men Of the party at the front. 1
think, said Mr.. Wilson, that Republic
cans can. in two years, carry every one
Of the old free States and some OF the
old slave States. It is probable that Re-
publicans will he strengthened and
helped by the policy which the Demo-
Gratis will pursue after their accession to
power. The history Of the Democratic
party for the last 90 years has been a
series Of blunders; it has hardly drawn
a breath in that time which was not a
blunder. Republicans have controlled
Congress for 10 successive years, q lon
ger time than any party has had the
control since 1899. The Democrats will
find II no easy task to conduct affairs to
the satisfaction Of the country. and that
il is q much harder labor than to find
fault with the Republican method OF adj
m~inistration. / find no reason to think
their course will contrast f%ayorably
with that OF Republicans. i don't
know what financial policy they will
pursue; but the hercsy Of hard money
does not appear to have gained anything
in these elections. He was very en-
phatic in his opposition to the third
term, even for the bost man that ever
lived. and with much feeling rspudiated
the idea that Massachusetts, had gone
over to the Democracy.
