LONDON, Feb. 26. - Intelligence has
been received here that the steamer
Hong Kong from this place for Japan,
foundered off the Island of Abdelcieria,
Indian Ocean. Nineteen persons are
reported saved. six are known to have
been drowned, and Is are missing.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 26.-On the arrival
of the train from Richmond at Alexan-
dria, it was discovered that ex-senator
James W. Nye. who when last seen oc-
.cupied seat in the sleeping car, was
missing. His boots were still in the
birth. He was on his way Dorth from
Florida with his daughter. Mrs. Vyse.
and a servant. He retired the previous
evening in his usual health. 1t is sup
posed he got up in the night in dazed
condition and walked or fell off the train
while in motion, as he has not been seen
or heard from at ars, of the stations
where the train stopped. Some fears
have lately been felt b. his friends that
his mental faculties were waning. and
on this account he was induced to jour-
.ney with his daughter in Florida whith-
or she had gone for the benefit of her
health. Several friends Of Senator Nye
at the Capital think there must be q
mistake in the report of his death. and
that the person to whom the accident
happened is another person of the same
name, because his daughters name is
not Vyse but Walter. and when these
friends last heard from him he was in
New YORK. not able to travel. Moreo-
r>xer they have no information Of his hav-
ing passed through Washington on his
way south.
A dispatch from Richmond says: Ex-
Senator Nye was found here all safe but
nearly nude. 1t seems he slipped out
OF the car as the train started and con.
cealed himself in the depot.
1t is stated that Bartlett, Attorney of
the Pacific Mail Co., left this morning
for Minnesota to attach the property Of
VIM. S. King. with a view to recover
the amount received by him in connec-
fion with the subsidy.
WARRINGTON. Feb. 26.-The President
nominated Jas. NJ. Tyner of Indiana n
second Assistant Postmaster General.
The Committee on Ways & Means
this evening are contemplating a report
on the Pacific Mail Subsidy. 1t is IN
fimated that it will recommend that
measures will be taken to prosecute tor
perjury two persons who received large
sums. The Committee will also report
bill providing against the recognition
of any but properly authenticated astor-
neys in business before Congress.

THE Racine Advocate saws reports co,

HARFER's WEEKLY speaks thus can
didly of the President and his relation
to the welfare of the Republican party.
It is not a pleasant thing to say, and we
do not believe Mr. Curtis is actuated by
captiousness or personal predjudices,
for it is certain that similar views are
held by some of the best members of
the party:
"The President, who, as we say, could
do much to restore to the Republican party
its old prestige and its hold upon large
numbers of old Republicans who are now
ahenated will eyindently do nothing. His
apparent disregard of the expression 81
public opinion as Fclamor, his readiness
to- believe a charge against any public Off
Ger to be mere hostile spite, his failure
to feel the real movement of the public

expectation that he will take the lead in
doing what must be done. Waiting for
him is mere drifting and drifting on a

INFORMATION has been received in
Madison that through the persistent eff
forts of Gen. j. II. Rusk, member of
Congress from the Seventh District,
about 100000 acres of swamp lands, an
old Indian reservation in the State, has
been secured for Wisconsin from the
General Government. The lands have
been awarded to the state by decision
of the Secretary OF the Interior revers-
ing an adverse one of the Commissioner
OF the General Land Office, refusing to
recogSize the claim of Wisconsin under
the grant OF 1850 to the swamp lands.
subsequently included in 1854 in the
Indian reservations. The proceeds of
these lands are by law divided between
the swamp and Normal School funds of

THE FALL CAMPAIGN.

The State Journal in referring to the
coming campaign thinks that the reform
ers are likely to nominate the present
State officers for second term. There
is decided opposition to this on the part
of many strong men IN that party.
They insist that it IS demoralizing and
will be hailed as a sign of weakness and
quoted as proof that the party does not
dare trust to its principles and put for
ward its strongest representative men.
The presen sation for q second term OF
Heterogeneous array of incumbents, who
were picked up in an ssemergency, with
no hope of success, is hkened to the
course of merchant who offers some
striped, spotted and curiously figured
goods for the second season, not because
he admires the pattern, but simply for the
reason that it seemed to please the pop
ular whim one season and might again.
This may succeed in business, where a
merchant has large stock on hand, but
it will fail in politics. There are old
Democrats who think that the lightning
won't strike twice. in the same place.
They fear defeat. From the mutterings
of thunder around the Reform sky, not
loud but deep, we are confident that
this trusting TO luck, and taking the
chances on a denomination, will not be
approved by the people. They are going
to the polls this fall, as they went last
fall when they elected a Legislature over
whelmingly opposed to the ambitious
designs of prominent reformers. If this
popular verdict on the claims Of those
opposing the republicans, who had fixed
longing eyes on the Senatorship, is not
deemed strong enough, it will probably
be made more emphatic. Wisconsin is
Republican State when the people
vote, and they are going TO the polls
this year.
No jugglery can conceal the fact that
but two great political organizations
exist now. 1t is plain to every intelli-
gent man that the democratic party has
not changed its name, or its nature.
Some credulous people thought it had
been transformed into something new
and strange, because the Democratic
National Convention nominated Greeley,
an ancient and active enemy Of demo
cratic principles. But they are no lon
ger deceived. The action of partizans in
nominating and eIecting ont-and-out
Democrats in other states the large
majority of pronounced Democrats in
the House of Representatives the tone
of the influential papers opposing the
Republican party, and the differences OF
representative men, all show that the
contest is to be fought between Republi-
canisln and Democracy. Electioneering
for the candidates OF 2 Reform party
this fall, and pretending that it is a dis
tnct, responsible, healthy political Or
ganization, will be an attempt to get
votes under false pretenses. The Re
form party is a political nongrel it is a
reproach to its father, it is ashamed OF
its parentage it has no aim, but Office
no power of perpetuating itself nc
destiny but death.

The London Times recently contained
an article onAmerican railroad securities,
with special reference 10 helegislation in
Wisconsin. In commenting omit the Sen
tinel thinks it must beadmitted that there
is force in some of the stricturers which
it contains. as when it refers to the I'M
compromising disposition that was ex-
exhibited by the majority of the last Leg
islature. But there is one side of the
question that The Times and all other
organs of capital leave out in the discus
sion OF this subject. They speak as if
the Changers had proceeded without
any provocation to adopt a policy to-
ward the railroads that amounts to little
less than confscation. Now, the fact is
that they have had very great provoca-
ton, and endured monstrous discrimin-
atfons and exactions for years. The
papers that discuss this subject owe it
to fairness to state this fact, TO state that
| the charges of the railroads have been
stable, and that the managers have been
guilty of other practices that needlessly
oppressed the patrons of the roads.
Moreover, these journals ought to have
the intelligence to see and the justice to
say that nothing in the nature of con-
| fiscation is intended. On this point the
Changers owe duty to themselves, the
performance of which Will silence the
clamors of the Eastern and European
press. They should keep their minds
open to conviction on the question how
the principle Of State control can be ex-
ercised so as to embarrasS the railroads
III the least degree and allow them re-
munerative rates, while affording the
people protection against the grievances
that have been suffered in the past. If
/ the question shall come before the next
Legislature free from all complications,
it is safe to predict that such action will
be had as viii justify before the world

ulation of railroads

THE GALL FOR A CONVENTION.

The Republican State Central Com
mittee has called the state convention
for the nomination of candidates for
state offices to meet on the 7th OF July.
This is nearly two months earlier than
usual, and about four months before the
election. There are some advantages In
an early meeting of the convention, and
some disadvantages. It gives more
time for organizing the state for the
campaign, but less for canvassing the
subject of suitable candidates. 1t gives
more time for the people to become ac-
quainted with the candidates, and thus
TO strengthen their chances of election,
if they are such persons as viii improve
on acquaintance; but it also gives lar
ger opportunity for the people to be-
come disguised with them, if they should
happen to be persons whose character
and abilities viii not bear close scru tiny.
While, therefore, an early convention
gives less time for hunting up and bring
ing out OF suitable candidates it makes
such candidates a greater necessity.
This last consideration we by no means
object to, but we refer to it as emphasiz-
ing the importance of making the most
OF the time between this and the meet
ing of the convention, not in ''setting
up the pins" for the nomination of this
or that man, but in canvassing the ques-
ton Of who are the best men for the
Offices.
If the ticket shall be made up Of men
OF recognized ability and integrity-of
men who have the ability to discover,
and the courage to do, what is right and
wise in the treatment Of the important
questions Of state policy, there is an ex-
eellent prospect OF success. But II it
shall be made up-9f men who are sup
| posed to be popular with this or that
| class, men who have been prominent or
ultra on one side or the other of the
railroad, liquor and other vexed cues
tons. and therefore committed to GER
tain lines of policy, success is by no
| means certain. The Republican party
| contains many men of high character
and qualifications, and there is no need
for putting up as its representatives or
candidates mere politicians or partisans
men whose principal claim to promi-
nence is some supposed element of pop
ularity. The best ticket in point of
qualifications is the strongest, generally
speaking. Other considerations may
| properly come in as collateral, but they
should never be allowed to overtop those
of fitness for the office. Let us have a
ticket, not Of worn out political hacks,
but one that shall challenge support by
| It's personal strengith. Wisconsin.

REPORTS from the grasshopper region

REPORTS from the grasshopper region
do not vary materially from those prev
iously received. The insects are slowly
advancing in their work Of destruction,
leaving nothing behind that they can
consume. Farmers in the vicinity of
their depredations are alarmed, and with
reason, for they are greatly to be dread
ell. Ordinary appliances seem power
less to arrest the progress of these pests.
They increase with such rapidity that
the destruction of a million makes no
perceptible diminution in their ranks.
The only hope of the farmers is that the
elements will conspire to destroy the
insects, but even then it is feared that
remedy would at the same time destroy
the crors

CHANGE IN UNITED STATES OF
FIcEs.-Some time last week Senators
Howe and Cameron received telegram
from Secretary of the Treasury Bristow
asking them to name suitable persons for
the offices of Collector of Internal Rev
enue and United States District Attor-
ney in place of Mr.. Erskine and Hon.
Levi Hubbell. The discrimination to
supersede these gentlemen, we under
stand, arose not from any charges hay
ing been made against them, but from
the conviction that it would be better
under all the circumstances to have new
set OF of1icials--men who could consider
the operations against the distillers from
the standpoint, so to speak, of strangers
and wholly disinterested persons.
La accordance with this request the
Senators met several prominent Repub-
leans in this city on Friday night, and,
after friendly conference in regard to
the matter, it was decided to recommend
Capt. irving NJ. Bean for the position of
Internal Revenue, and Gen. f. G.. Win
kler, for that of the United States Dis
trict Attorney. These men were select
ed, after several prominent and excellent
Republicans had been mentioned, and
entirely without their own knowledge or
procuring They We're very properly
considered thoroughly qualified for the
positions, and worthy to represent the
Republican party. They were selected
without regard to their leanings in the
struggles of last winter within the party
and with the purpose generally express
ed TO ignore past differences, and, as far
as possible, promote harmony in the
party.-NOnday's Wisconsin.
