A Medical view or Our Statesmen.

New York physician writes to the Utica
Herald Offering to bet thousand dollars that
Governor Tilden has suffered stroke Of
paralysis which partly disables his. left side.
IL is an odd proposition but it would have
strange consequences if hereafter our public
men should be regularly submitted to medi-
cal examination like recruits for the army or
navy. What singular discoveries might be
made! Itwould have to be said of Governor
Illden that his detective organ is by no
means paralyzed. But we might discover
leading men in both parties who had suffered
paralysis of very serious organs and faculties
In some OF them paralysis has extinguished
the capacity of distinguishing between right
and wrong in some the power of telling the
difference between rogue and .an honest
man others, yet, paralysis has incapacitated
from knowing good money from bad, and
many are reduced to the sad state of being
unable to say what they think. And if bets
are to be made on such delicate subjects we
should presently read the oldest quotations
in the betting reports Ten to one that
General Butler has discovered new version
OF the len commandments. Twenty TO
one that Mr.. Delano does not know the diff
ference between honest and dishonest Indian
agents. ''Forty to one that the Cabinet do
not know the proper time to resign" ga
hundred to one that Governor Allen does not
know the difference between q rag baby and
O dollar"-a most astonishing case of paraly-
sis of the perceptive organs. Give to one
that General Grant does not know whether
he wants third term or not;" and 'fifty to
one that Spencer, of Alabama, does" The
medical betting ring offers an entirely new
field for Mr.. Morrissey, who might, with the
help of a few doctors, get up regular politico-
medical pools, in which, no doubt, he would
sell Kelly against the field, as SO far par
alyzed as not to know anything whatever.
The New York herald., 1875-08-26

as money, and, on account Of their ornamen'
tai capacities, would find great circulation,
especially among the Indian tribes AS We
are about to have party of universal credit
and unlimited circulation let US begin in q
practical manner. An act of Congress max
/ ing the clamshells legal tender, followed by
another act directing the issue of thousand
millions of CLANS at so many head to every
citizen of the United States, would be great
achievement 1t might be objected that per-
haps the CLANS would not be accepted in
other countries at our own valuation. But
this is free country, and we should do as we
please, and if satisfied with our own circula-
tion we do not see why we should be con-
cerned with the bloated aristocracies and
decaying monarchies of the Old World.
OF course party like this, based on these
courageous ideas, will not be content with
principles alone There are offices to be
filed. 1t is well enough to have meetings at
the Cooper Institute, letters from General
Butler and speeches from Pig Iron Kelley;
but great party cannot triumph without
meeting the country with its own candidates.
Perhaps its leaders think it is too soon to
bring out candidates for the Presidency, and
that their first duty is to ''arouse the coun-
try" This is mistake. Why should not
the members of the club go before the coun-
try with full ticket, containing President
Vice President and members of the Cabinet !?
This would be new feature, and would
charm thousands of voters with its frankness.
Which leader is more fitted for the Presi-
dency than Uncle Dick himself? For Vice
President we suggest Uncle Sam Carey, of
Ohio, the great statesman who has discovered
coupon clipping" to be crime. Uncle
Dick and Uncle Sam, on a clamshell plat
form, would sweep the country. What an
administration we should have For Secre-
tary of State we suggest General Butler, of
Massachusetts, for Secretary of the Treasury,
Jay Gould for Secretary of War, General
John Cochrane for Secretary of the Navy,
Pig Iron Kelley, of Pennsylvania for Attor-
ney General that luminous and benefcent
intellect, Theodore Tomlinson; for Secretary
of the Interior, Columbus Delano, who now
manages the Indian Ring with so much en-
ergy and acceptability that he could not be
spared, while for the Post Office Department
who more competent than General Robert
Toombs, of Georgia? With such ticket and
such a Cabinet the new party would enter
the campaign with flying colors. 1t must
not be timid. 1t must avow its principles
and select its leaders, remembering that
often in politics desperate courage makes
one a majority"

The Halt in Rapid Transit.

The Rapid Transit Commissioners appear
to have encountered an obstruction to their
work precisely where none could have been
anticipated They have not yet agreed upon a
route, and already it is intimated that the
expiration of the time to which they are linn
tied by the law will find this important point
undecided The Commissioners have plain
duty to perform. They are not appointed
to protect the interests of the Third Avenue
Railroad Company the Harlem Railroad
Company or any other privileged corpora
ton. 1t is not their province to study the
benefit or the injury that steam railroad
may do to the real estate of this or that prop
erty owner. They have accepted the respon-
sibility of carrying out law designed to
give relief to the people of New York by the
accommodation of steam communication be-
tween the Battery and the Westchester border
If they fail to accomplish the work theYhave
undertaken they will be classified hereafter
with the venal Legislatures through whose
corrupt intrigues rapid transit in New York
has been heretofore defeated.
The first object of an honest and capa-
BILE Commission must be to enlist the conf
dence of capital in the undertaking, so that
the money for the construction of rapid
transit road may be forthcoming. To accom-
plish this the route covered by the charter
must be one that promises a remunerative
amount of business. Some of the avenues
are closed to the Commission. Broadway
Fifth avenue, and Fourth avenue above
Forty street cannot be used. The
west side has the Greenwich street line in
operation. The Third avenue route, or the
Lexington avenue route, lying between
Third and Fourth avenues, seems to present
advantages that cannot be overlooked The
travel over the Third avenue horse car line
is larger than over any other line in the city,
and, except a small percentage, is travel that
would use steam railroad. The route is
built over almost unbrokenly from Harlem
bridge to the Battery. rapid transit road
running along the Bowery and Third avenue
would accommodate more people on its direct
line than could any other route in the city,
and would be more central than any other
route, excluding Broadway and Fifth avenue,
which are prohibited by the law, and Sixth
avenue, which ends at the Central Park.
These facts are known to every citizen of
New York, and if the Rapid Transit Commits
sioners close their eyes to them the people
will believe they are blinded by something
else than stupidity
The New York herald., 1875-08-26
Bad News for Third rermers.

Some of the republican statesmen still
think it may be necessary to renominate
General Grant; but, if we may credit General
Burnside's Judgment, the third term is
not, after all, what racing men would call
q ''walk over" and the third termers need
not expect to have things all their own
way. Rhode Island, the General told a
HERALD correspondent the other day, is
pretty unanimously opposed to third term.
The people of Rhode Island want change
General Dix's Long Island fisherman, who
complained of the hard times last fall on the
score that he got now ''only about half an
eel to the pot" also thought it we'll to have a
change, and accordingly went to the polls
and elected Mr. Tilden Governor Possibly
the CLANS are not abundant in Rhode Island
this year. However that may be, Rhode
Island does not approve of a third term
During the late unpleasantness" Southern
soldier in Lees army hailed q Northern
vidette opposite, and being asked to what
regiment he belonged replied, "The Sixtieth
South Carolina what regiment do you be-
long to?" To which the Northern man
promptly replied, 'The four hundred and
ninety second Rhode Island" 'That does
not sound well for the Southern Confed-
eracy," remarked laughing Southerner,
and so Rhode Islands opposition to third
term seems to block the wheels little.

CAPTAIN WEBB has succeeded in swimming
from Dover to Calais; and this is certainly a
great feat and exhibits the wonders of which
human endurance and strength are capable.
1t is, perhaps. not so useful an achievement
as Boyton's, for Webb cannot communicate
his faculty to others for the price of an india
rubber suit but it is far superior as an evi-
deIce of human capability to wrestle with
adverse circumstances Every one must re-
joice in one aspect Of the case. 1t seems to
hold out the promise that we have at last got
rid of Leander and Lord Byron as the typi-
cal great swimmers. Who will dare to men,

THE CATTLE DISEASE IN NGLASD.-Thouph
we import only few cattle from England,
and those costly animals of fine breeds, it
will be well to adopt precautions at all our
ports against the introduction Of diseased
csttle if the report proves true that a disease
of the mouth and foot has broken out in Dor
setshiro with great virulencc. Twelve thou
sand animals arc said 10 be down with it,
and the distemper is spreading rapidly. Our
farmers and stock raisers have had several
severe experiences of cattle disease and will
desire all possible guards to bs Ssed against
the introduction Of contagion.
The New York herald., 1875-08-26

THE WATER SUPPLY.-The evidence seems
to be satisfactory that the Croton mains in
the lower part of the city are insufficient for
ordinary wants, and are so inadequate to
possible demands of great fire that this cir
cumstance affects the rates of insurance.
There seems to be evidence on this point so
clear as to entirely relieve the proposition
for new mains from the suspicion of originat-
ing in the wish to give a fat contract to a
sympathetic pipemaker. Nevertheless the
republicans in the city government oppose
the step, not out of regard to the public in
terest. but because it gives patronage to the
Superintendent of Public Works, a demo-
cratic functionary. They take their cue from
Comptroller Green, whose theory is to op-
pose the democrats, though you ruin tho
city.
