Gov. TILDEN, of New York, is making
an effort to reform the management OF
the canals in that State. 1t is claimed
that the corruption that will be brought
to light by an investigation of the canal
ring will be as great as was shown in the
prosecution of the Tweed ring. The &C
ton of Gov. Tilden is heartily endorsed
by the members of the Produce Exchange
and of the Butter ard Cheese Exchange,
and should be heartily approved by all
good citizens, irrespective of party.

IT is reported that an alliance has been
formed between the Union Pacific and
Panama Railroads and the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and the rates OF fare
by the latter are raised to those charged
by the former. The fare being the same,
of course most of the travel will be by
the railroads; but the Pacific Mail is not
to lose by this arrangement, as the Union
Pacific is to pay five dollars for each pas
senger it carries. Under this combination
there is no prospect for cheap fares for
passengers. or low tariff for freights across
the continent

THE CarIists are gradually losing
ground in Spain, and Gen. Cabrerd and
other officers have deserted the cause as
hopeless, and Don Carlos will soon be
unable to cope with the government
troops. 1t is hoped that this distracted
country may enjoy temporary peace at
least. The petty tyrannies of the Mad
rid government are cropping ont. and
there is not much to be hoped for from
it, but peace would be a great blessing
to Spain under most any rule.

ELECTION RETURNS,


late State election in Connecticut, and
the municipal elections in some OF the
cities i'm other States. While the Re-
pablicans have made some gains in Con-
necticut on Representatives the Legis-
lature on joint ballot will be largely
Democratic. The defeat of Gen. Haw-
ley for Congress will be regretted by
Republicans throughout the country, As
he was an able man and his course in the
late Congress had made him quite popu-
lar with all conservative Republicans.
Upon the whole the results of the cleo
ton are very encouraging to Democrats
and will encourage them in their prepa.
ration for the Presidential campaign.
The great unwashed are marshaling for
the contest and their standard bearers
will doubtless be genuine Bourbon Dem
ocrats, and while we don't believe that
there is any probability of their being
successful, yet it will be necessary for
the Republicans to adopt such a wise
policy as will unite all who are opposed
to Democratic rule as shown by their
recent acts in states where they are in
the majority. The prospects are that
the campaign in 1876 will be a bitter
one.

HEATHER BLOOM.

WHEN autumn breezes crisply blow,
And autumn suns are mellow,
When maple-leaves begin to glow,
And all the woodland spaces show
Their pOmp of red and yellow,
I drop my knitting on my knees,
l fold my hands together,
And far beyond the maple-trees,
And far across the rolling seas.
smell the moorland heather.
The purple heather, blown about
By warm winds off the border
All me! what memories blossom out,
What ordered thoughts are put to rout
In tremulous disorder
BY just color in the air,
An atmospheric glamor-
That, spite of wrinkles and gray hair,
Has thrilled old heart-beats unaware
With new and noisy clamor.
First-love is sweet! 1t came to me
In breezy autumn weather;
Across the moor the wind swept free,
Warm shone the sun where and he
Sat knee-deep in the heather.
A waving, fragrant sea, it spread
All round in purple splendor:
White clouds went sailing overhead,
A lark was soaring, when he said
Il love you," low and tender.
1 wondered, dumb with glad surprise
Could 1 have heard him clearly?
He saw the blssful color rise,
He drew me, kissing lips and eyes
You EnoD I lone you deGy5yn
And earth and sky seemed echoing
Those words of sweetest meaning;
The blackjack trilled them on the wing,
The very blossoms seemed to ring,
While, on his bosom leaning,
/ built the airy towers that youth
Can fashion so sublimely-
Nor dreamed how love would end in ruth,
For joy that had no root in truth,
And hope that died untimely.
His grave was made long years ago
Beneath his English willows;
For me the scarlet naples glow,
And evermOre between us flow
The wide Atlantic pillows.
My life has had it's share of gain,
No less perhaps than losses;
Its pleasure has alloy of pain,
But haply / have learned to train
Some flowers around my crosses.
And still, when maple boughs are red
In breezy autumn weather,
Once more the moorland ways tread;
Once more hear the words he said
That day amongst the heather.

The Mechanism of Acting.

George Henry Lewes writes: We sometimes
hear amateur critics object to fine actors that
they are every night the same, never varying
their gesture or their tones. This is stigmatzed
mechanical" and the critics innocently oppose
to it some ideal of their own which they call
"inspiration.' Actors would smile at such
nonsense What is called inspiration is the mere
haphazard of carelessness or incompetence; the
actor is seeking an expression which he ough to
have found when studying his part.
What would be thought of singer who sang
his aria differently every night? In the manage
ment of his breath, in the distribution of light
and shade, in his phrasing, the singer who knows
how to sing never varies. The tinabre of his
voice, the energy Of his spirit may vary, but his
methods are invariable. Actors learn their
parts as singers learn their songs. Every detail
is deliberative, or has been deliberated. The
very separation Of art from nature involves this
calculation. The sudden flash of suggestion
which is called inspiration may be valuable, it
may be worthless; the artistic intellect estimates
The value, and adopts or rejects it accordingly.

OF the colored longshoremen belonging to the

occasion of the meeting was in pursuance to a
call made by Taylor Smith, President, and the
question under consideration was the present
rate of wages. 1t WAS shown that the laborers
on the lovee by their past competition had re-
duced their wages to ruinonsly low rate, and
something to ameliorate their condition was
necessary.
A resolution introduced by Joseph Harris to
the effect that after fifteen days the colored
laborers would reduce their wages to So per day,
If the white men did not divide half and half
their jobs with them. They desired the assist.

spent $3.50 in year in law expenses and they
propose in the future to discard the law and seek
their individual benefit.
