Damned by Faint Praise.-Jas. Beekman,
clergyman OF New York, was recently badly kicked
by a horse, and was speedily cured by using the
celebrated Mexican Mustang Liniment. when the
proprie tor asked him for certificate, he replied
that he "considered IL q remarkable article, but
it wouldn't answer for him to indorse a remedy in
print" Here's consistency. But we didn't kick
him, as the horse did. The world knows that for

The DEFEAT OF rnE CHEYENNEs.--
Another brilliant victory over the Cheyen-
mes has been won in Texas, two hundred
warriors having been completely routed by
half the number of United States cavalry,
under the command of Lieutenant Frank d.
Baldwin. The rescue Of two little white
girls. whose father and mother the sayages
had mastered, is one Of the most pleasing
incidents of the battle. But, while we must
rejoice in the splendid victories our soldiers
achieve, the question of why this annual In
dian war is necessary cannot be silenoed'
There is cruel, costly fatal fighting every
year because of an incompetent Indian
policy. The army is not permitted 10y the
government to prevent Indian outrages' but
it is always expected to punish them Gen
eral Sheridan's plan for controlling the
tribes must be adopted, if this disgraceful
war is ever to be permanently ended

THE CENTENNIAL.-ln the work which
has been done to further the Centennial
cause the Philadelphia ladies have been es-
pecially conspicuous and we are not sur
prised to learn that their next grand move
meut is to be both novel and imposing 1t
is to he a combined tea party and fair, at
which all countries are to be represented at
the tables, the articles for sale being char
acteristic of each country, and the attend
ants wearing their national costume The
Academy of Music and Horticultural Hall of
that city are TO be devoted to this purpose
the parquet of the former will be boarded
over, and with the stage, used as ballroom.
The affair is to take place on the evenings of
February % and %, 1875, and representa-
tiyes of the committees of the various states
have already been invited to it. The money
to supply the tables is to be raised by CON
certs, to be given at private houses, and,
with the contributions, which are expected
to be heavy, there will doubtless be large
addition to the Centennial fund as the result
Of this patriotic tea party.

TuE ScANDAL-A beginning has been
made in the libel suits growing out of the
Tilton-Beecher matter On Friday, decis-
ion was reachedinthe trialof Dcmas Barnes,
editor of the Brooklyn Argus, for slandering
Henry G.. Bowen in the publication Of an an
ticle rejecting ou the character Of his de
ceased wife. Bowen and his sons denied that
the wife and mother made any such death
he'd confession of intimacy with Mr. Beecher
as was alleged Mr.. Bowen taking occasion
also, to deny that there has ever been any
GOODNESS between him and his pastor,-and
as no proof Of malice in the publication was
produced the jury brought in a verdict of
acquittal, experimenting it, however with
a statement that, while Mr. Barnes was le-
gally innocent they believed the article in
his paper was atrooious and cruel. Mean
while Tilton's suit against Beecher is at a
stand-still, the latter's lawyers having de
cided to carry the disputed question Of a
"bill Of particulars up to the court of APP
peas, where decision will hardly be reached
for weeks, and perhaps not for months.

The returns Of the vote cast in the State
of New York in the last election, indicate
large falling off from the vote of 1872 The
vote for Gen Dix is nearly seventy thousand
less than it was two years ago, but the in
crease in the vote for Tildeu over that cast
for Herman in 1872, is comparatively small
There is nothing to indicate that a very
large per centage of the vote that was cast
for the Republican ticket, two years ago, was
transferred to the democratic ticket this fall ;
and there is every reason to suppose that if
a full vote had been cast ON the 3D. inst, or
as large a vote as was cast in 1872, the state
would have gone Republican now as it did
then, though by a slightly reduced majority

ON Monday week freight trains on the New
York Central railroad, between Albany and
Rochester, began to run on the new double
track freight road which has just been com
pleted between the two points in question.
The freight business on the Central road
win, before many more months, be com
pletely separated from the passenger traffic,
the freight and passenger trains each having
their separate tracks. The eifectof this new
arrangement viii be that the passenger
trains can run faster and the freight trains
slower than under the old system. The
necessity of keeping out of the way of pas
,enger trains has compelled freight trains to
lose great deal of time while waiting on
,idings. This lost time they have been com
PEELED to make up 10y fast running, Now
that the passenger trains will be out of the
way, the freight trains can run at a rate OF
ten mile, am hour, and still make the run be-
tween Albany and Rochester in less time
than is now required. The saving in weai
and tear by running heavy freight trains at a
low rate OF speed viii alone pay for the cost
OF the track at no very distant day,

BIC PnoFIr-Pelsons familiar with the
cost of iron castings in general business
have often doubtless wondered what there
was in stoves over similar fabrics of iron TO
make them so expensive to users of them.
Compared to beds, tables, chairs, carpets,
and other articles Of prime necessity in
household use they are exorbitantly high.
They last no longer than domestic wares
generally and it would seem ought to APP
proximate in price to other utensils The
life of a good stove is from five TO ten years,
according "a, It Is used, which is no longer
than bed,t-ais, chairs, tables, and other
furniture Of similar quality endure The
Iron H9Hlers Journal gives some facts as to
the cost of making stoves which are Of gem
eral interest Mr.. John S Perry, of Albany,
calculates that gros, ton of iron will make
two thousand one hundred and twenty
pounds of clean castings which would fum-

moulding per one hundred pounds is Sl375,
which would make the work on a stove cost

was quoted In New York, sept 10th, at $50
per tom, which at Mr.. Pery's figures would

The Sentinelis entirely mistaken in our
having ignored the "truth as clear as
heaven" which appeared in its columns in
relation to the fraud attempted to be perpe-
trated upon the grangers. We noticed that
the Sentinel attempted to wriggle out of the
position that it referred to the grangers,
when it spoke of the convention of farmers
which it had procured to be called: but that
was entirely too fiimsy. We knev, entirely
outside of the information conveyed by the
Journal, that the attempt to
commit the granger organization to the SEN
tinel's no party was miserable failure; and
we knew, too, that the Sentinel designed to
leave the impression on the public mind
that the two calls, published by 1t,
came from the body of grangers that
were then in session in that city for an en-
tirely different purpose, The purchasing
agents of the grangers were transacting a
legitimate business connected with their
order, and an attempt was made to capture
them in their official capacity, and this fail
ing, it was determined that the calls for a
should have the quasi endorse
