WILLIAM NJ. TWEED
appeared in court here Friday as q witness
in case regarding a gift Of a lew thou
sand dollars by him to club some time
ago. Many had kind word for him. and
everybody thought that he looked remark
ably well. There was merry twinkle of
his eye when he recognized old acquant
anccs, and he vigorously shook their hands
He Wore his beard rs usual, and was at
tired in plain suit of dark summer goods
with II white nccktic and gold eyeglasses.
All questions put to him were answered
without hesitation, and in that rapid and
peculiar way which characterized him when
presiding at meetings IN Tammany Hall.
His words were run together, and he spoke
with vehemencc. When he went from the
witness stand he was sclf-possessod and
smiling. After the conclusion of the case,
Tweed renamed few minutes TO speak to
friends, after which he was taken to Il
coach, and driven to the boat in readiness

THEODORE Triton

which he offers TO appear as a witness be
fore its examining committee and answer
any questions which may be put to him re-
garding the matter of the Beechcr scandal.

JUDGE ALLISON, REGISTER or THE TREASURY,
is out with u mass of hasty statistics to
show the debiitated condition of the country
and the perls of returning to specie as the
measure of value. Judge Allison confoands
capital with currency and the transfer Of
capital with itsdcstruciion. The whole ar.
gument is weak one, and the TriJuHc
asks " What does Mr. Allison think Of
France? Is that country ruined because
five francs mean five francs in specie. in
stead of piece Of ornamented paper {?

honesty? Does little matter Of ten per

RESULT or TIE STRIKE.
The last strike has demonstrated the fact
that among the brcklayers, rs in other
trades, there is always an idle man stand
ing ready to take the place of every man
who chooses to quit work. The men out
sf work are not in all cases the best work
men, but enough 10 do all the work in
progress. The city parks are thronged
daily with idle workingmen, steadily occu-
pying the public seats in the shade or lying
on the grass, and it seems pity to see
laboring men throwing away their money
and damaging themselves in these hard
times in trying to battle against capital.
and TO throttle the growth of the city.
A FEW CRATES or PEACHES

, least 600, 600 baskets, though some regard
the estimate as far too low, rs 5000, 600
baskets have been brought to market in
single year from that state
THE COTTON CROP.
The Alabama and Georgia journals speak
cheerfully of the cotton crop, and that if it
will only fulfill its present promise there
will be flush times in the fall, the farmers
not having been able to run into debt.

degrees Fahrenheit, drinks two or three
glasses of water, and when in profuse
perspiration is carfuly rubbed. The virus,
