GETTING CHILLY.

"Chilly, a.; cool; moderately cold, such as
{" to cause shivering; as, a chilly day, night, or
" air." Thus is it that the Great Unabridged
defines a word which is now much in the
mouths of everybody, and especially in COM
pany with the morning mullins. Now it is
that we begin to wonder whether just pint
or so of warm water would not make CRATE
full addition to the pre-breakfast bath !;
whether we shall not tell Mary Chambermaid
to put cover OF two more on the bed !;
whether it is advisable to leave the tOp-sash
of the window little down during the night
as usual; whether we shall start the
furnaces and acknowledge that the Winter
is here. Now is the lover of Shakes
peare frequently reminded of the beginning
of that wonderful scene: Hdmlet-The air
" bites shrewdly it is very cold. HOrdtio-
at is a nipping and an eager air." We are
driven by it into a fuss of preparation. In a
small way we are like poor Dr. Kane, slowing
and fitting his little bark for hyperbOrean
adventure. Yes; frost and snow and congela-
ton are at hand the nights of % above 0 or
of 10 below are steadily sweeping toward q
present of low temperature and daylight of
only nine or ten hours duration. We can
play the summer syDarltt Ho lOHReT we are
reminded that the old Mortimer were our
cousins the Winter comes All through
honest October we 20 through our preparation
like so many Robinson Crusoes. We get in
coal. We attend to the furnaces We put up
the storm door and the double windows. We
furnish and fortify as for siege. For the
Winter is at hand.
1t is curious to think as we grow more and
more homeish in our feeling, with the
abbreviating days, how with the perfection of
modern improvement we have abolished the
freside, which glows and radiates now only
in poetry. We are Fire -Worshipers pure and
simple no lODger-we are only sect of that
persuasion, the devOtees of Hot Air! Seated
around register or stove, maybe we love
each other quite as well, but the fireplace
brought play of fancy, and old romantic
dreams it was plain and honest, and not in
the least scientific until DR.. Franklin, who
meddled with everything. put in an iron back
with pair of iron wings, and from that time
to this we have sought inventions OF calOrif-
cation, until their name is considerably more
than legion. Now is it that the newspapers

CAUSES AND RESULTS,

1t would be a mistake to regard the October
elections as indicating revival of the Bour-
bon Democracy. The people have not made
up their minds to restore power to an organi-
cation whose last President was Buchanan
and whose last statesman was Tweed. Many
hope that new and better Democracy is
arising; but it was not even this which
achieved the triumphs of Tuesday.
Every Administration loses before the peo-
ple in the middle of its term. There were
special reasons why this one should. The dis
satisfaction even among the more jealous Re-
publicans has been continuously increasing
for now nearly eighteen months. Credit Mo-
bilier was hardly out of the way till the
Salary Grab came. Then Jayne and Sanborn
made their appearance. Simmons followed
New-York tribune., 1874-10-15

promptly, and after him came Kellogg anu
Carpenter. A multitude of other and almost
equally exasperating occurrences have IN
creased the discomfort.
Then party ties have been growing looser
for year or two. Men have learned to bolt
easily, and to accept unsatisfactory caucus
nominations with very i'll grace.
The panic has been followed by hard times.
Furnaces have blown out. Manufactures have
STONED. Wages have fallen. Thousands of
laborers can find no work at any wages 1t
always happens that such condition makes
heavily against the party in power. Some
think the Government directly responsible for
their misfortunes; all think that something is
wrong and they want a change.
Local causes have swelled the Administra-
ton disasters. The temperance crusade aroused
an unusual feeling, and the adoption of pro-
hibitory plank in the Republican platform in
Ohio cost them far more in the cities than
they gained in the country.
But however clearly the result in each case
may be traced to some local cause, the i'm
portant fact remains, that the effect is ma

to-day in New-York by reason of Tuesdays
work at the West; and the politicians may as
well take that fact into all subsequent calcu-

enough to remember stoves invented by that

remember q stove invented by the venerable
and reverend Dr. Mott; another devised by
the good and unfortunate John Pierpont,
though considering his temperament one
wonders what he wanted of stove IN any
season. The learned and scientific Olmsted,
it will be remembered, brought forth twins.
These old cOmbusters seem mostly to have
passed into cold desuetude. The public taste
in this matter runs to novelty and expert
ment. But what poetry is there in the names
bestowed upon the new inventiOnsf Here Is

man There is trouble before him, whichever
may be his selection. When the mysterious

You learn how to manage it in time-say about

cheering only you know that the wife OF

Happy are you if the sweet Spring-time does
not find you confirmed and reckless misan-
thrope, made so by the combined influence OF
cold and carbOnic gas.
Well, if we are not comfortable for some
months to come, it will not be because there
are not ninety and nine different styles or
stoves, one hundred and one varieties OF fur
naces, innumerable sorts of coal, incredibly
thick k-sOled boots, and frOst-defying garments,
advertised and for sae To these we add
without charge our little contribution, which
is only the philosophical advice-Take it as it
comes. There will be at least thirty coolest
days of the season; six greatest snOwstOrms
of the season nine experiences of the worst
walking of the season; and three different
warmest weeks of the season. Memory is the

The days when the whole stock market was
absorbed by the struggles of Fisk, Gould,
Drew, and Vanderbilt. were recalled yester-
day in the General Term of the Supreme
Court. The suit of the Erie Railway Com
pany against Mr.. Vanderbilt, for the recovery
of S5,OOOOOO, was brought up on an appeal
from a decision in favor OF the defend
ant, made by Judge Barnard in 1869. The
Company claimed that its property was fraud
ulenty delivered to Mr.. Vanderbilt by Its
officers as means of getting the latter out
of their exile at Jersey City. The defendant
denied any transactions with the Company,
and insisted that his settlement with Mr'
Drew bore no relation to its aitairs OF 'ne
frauds of its officers.
Few themes and eminently safe ones are
touched upon in the Chattanooga PLATFORM
outrages of course forming its bulk. Ihat
the Government ought not to employ dishonest
officials at the South is one OF those Things
that nobody can deny. Improving Southern
water-courses and seac0ast, and dev0tIng the
proceeds of public lands to education In pro.
portion to illiteracy, comprise the rest Oh
what the Convention thinks needful. A
Georgian delegate remarked on a disposition
Z" to dodge the most vital questions ever sub
emitted to people," Upon the outrage
business there was no lack of display, except
on the part of the North Carolina delegation,
who had neglected to provide any. But the
Committee on Outrages was so abundantly
supplied that they could not digest their mate
rial, and proposed to report only at three
months intervals, which would not give the
"bloody record" half fast enough for CAM
paign purposes A denunciation of the agents
of the Associated Press formed part Of-the
amusing proceedings, which include the ad-
iOnrnment of the Convention.

Efforts at retrenchment In the treasury De-
partment have revealed some queer facts.
The rule is that as soon as the female
clerks employed there are married, they must
resign their places so as to leave room for less
fortunate sisters. But some of tbem-a score
or more-have been getting over this difficulty
after marriage by not reporting the happy
event. The result is that several matrOns,
some with goodly number of children, are
known only in the Department by their maiden
names, which they still continue to sign.
The annual report of the Western Union
Telegraph Company indicates, along with the
growth of its business, an increase OF its use
fulness to the public. There are 448 more
telegraph offices in operation than there were
a year ago, and $500 miles of poles and 21,264
miles of wire have been added. Purchase and
lease from other telegraph companies are,
however, included in these figures. The in
crease in the business of money orders by tel
egraph is 40 per cent. Some improvements in
instruments have been successfully introduced

cret of wealth. This is the often asked
question which Mr.. Parton undertakes to an
swer, and he certainly succeeds in pointing
out many Of the elements of prosperity.

rich byt following out his suggestions may be
doubted but at least they will be abundantly
entertained by the perusal. Mr.. Parton is in

More complete returns reduce the estimated

Cachise Apaches.


 MT. s. R. DeI.ong came in from Apache Pass on Wednesday. He reports having seen Cachise lately and heard him talk that the "old man " is peaceful in expres- sions and actions; that he says the San Carlos and any other raiding Apaches shall not find refuge on his reserve; that since he made peace, it has been safe for people to travel over his reserve and he intends it shall continue to be safe; that he has an easier and better time at peace than he would or could have if at war. MT. DeLong thinks he is sincere and we are not going to deny it, and shall rejoice at every new evidence Of good faith on his part and that of his Indians.
 We have several times been asked who would be successor to Capt. Jeffords as agent. We have not the faintest idea who he will be. We never had nor have we now any candidate for the place, and are not vain enough to believe that we could get the position for any one. We don't des-- ignate men for offices, and never have nor never will oppose man in office in the hope of getting a billet for friend. We know that it is impossible for the mass of mankind to believe this, but an inquiry at the departments at Washington and of all who truly know us, will elicit but one re- Sponse and that just as here indicated.

Important to Stock.Rafsers.

Last Winter the stock-raisers of Cobra do lost hundreds of thousands of dollars by the weather killing their animals, and this Winter the loss has been very large in other northern Territories owing to the same cause. The Nevada papers report Gov. Bradley and his son having recently lost cattle worth S75,O0O to s9O,OOO by the cold weather. Their cattle ranged through the eastern part Of Nevada and south of Elko. It is a fact that the loss of stock from cold weather in the Territories north of here, amounts to much over the loss in Arizona by Apaches and all other causes; and in making this statement, we mean comparative and not aggregate loss. The present hostility Of the Apaches will undoubtedly retard the introduction and growth of stock In Arizona, but only re- tard, for safety will come and so will mill ions of cattle and sheep and they will multiply and prosper amazingly.
