not. If it does not intend TO support him,
then it will naturally desire the honor for
some one of its own citizens. We have in
this State at least three conspicuous repub-
lcans who are candidates for the Presi-
dency General Dix, Mr.. Conkling and ex-
Governor Morgan. II would be proper
enough for the republicans to express their
preference for either of these gentlemen, and
there is probably not a member of the party
Of any consequence who does not feel in his
own mind that il would be pleasure for
him TO express by his vote in the Convention
his desire that the party should name either
Governor Dix, Mr.. Conkling or Mr. Morgan
as the preference of New York in the Ma
tional Convention. Now, if tho Convention
at Saratoga dissolvos without giving express
sion to this preference it viii be considered,
and justly So that the republicans of New
York are too much afraid of President Grant
and the ambition of his friends TO venture
wish in behalf of one Of their own ilustrious
and honored citizens

The TANMANY TROUBLES eliminated YES
terlay in the ratification by the General Com
mittee of the recent action of the Committee
on Discipline and the Committee on Organ
ization. This was TO be expected; and as q
consequence Boss John O'Kelly is in high
feather. His victory was the signal for o
speech full of the prospective glories of Tam
many. or rather the speech was the signal for
victory. Any attempt at criticising the
O'Kclly's speech would be work Of superer-
ogation. 1t was at once warning to the weak
and a lesson to tho recalcitrant. The only
cndeavor to break its force and lessen
it's value was the address Of Mr..
Thomas Costigan, Of the Fifteenth
district, statesman in every way,
worthy Of the name he bears. Like his fore
runner, the celebrated Captain Costigan, T. G.
has opinions of his own, and he has brogue
sweet enough to make his speeches effective
in Tammany Hall or ont of it. Mr.. Costigan
gavo the O'Kelly piece of his mind, and he
was not afraid to attack the Swallow Tails in
the Wigwam from which the Short Hairs arc
now excluded. All this WINS very interesting
and very amusing, and we arc grateful to tho
General Committee of Tammany Hall for the
best bits of burlesque acted during the sum-
mer season.

GENERAL CoRr1NA, the noted bandit of
city Of Mexico and has been incarccratcd In
n prison, there TO await his trial on the charge
of disobedience Of orders. This offence is
not Of so rare occurrence in Mexico or usu-
ally regarded as Of so serious n character as
to warrant very extreme measures in his
case. While the object Of President Lerdo's
government doubtless is to remove him from
the scene of his robberies and so avoid pos
sible complications with the United States
it is not probable any serious punishment
will be moted out TO him in face Of public
sentiment which always sympathizcs
strongly with any ono accused of an offence
against the "hatcd Gringo."

ANOTHER MARKER WAS SHOT at Creedmoor

ANOTHER MARKER WAS SHOT at Creedmoor
yesterday, through carelessness in firing be-
fore the targets were ready. Casualties of this
kind are becoming altogether too common,
and something must be done to prevent
their recurrence in the future. The rules
must be more strictly enforced hereafter,
and when nm accident like that of yesterday
occurs it must be made the subject of jul
dicial investigation. Carelessness is crime
that should be punished as well as other
offences

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD, which
came into notoriety through the failure Of
Jay Cooke and the ruin of thousands, was
sold yesterday at auction. A committee OF

discussion on the street as to the possible
good or evil to be effected by this most un-
enyiable stock

A SERIOUS COLLISION has occurred on one or
the Kansas railways. AS usual, it appears to
have been caused by criminal carelessness in
the management of the road. The collision
in question presents on unusual phase in
this that tho chief sufferers were railway
officials. The damage was caused by cattle
train running into special which was occu-
pied by these officials. Fortunately no lives
were lost though several superintendent
and managers received severe injuries.
Sydney Smith used to say ''wait till
they kill a bishop" and SO one good
may result to the public from this 40
cident. These railway officials will have the
necessity for greater care in the administers
ton of their lines deeply impressed upon
their minds. There used to be a kind OF
superstition that train carrying the direc-
tors of road was secure from danger but
this accident will DO likoly to convince man
ayers and directors alike that they are but
mortal, and that unless they exercise con-
slant vigilance they may come to grief as
well as the mere public.

Mr.. Morrissey-A Man with a Mission.

Some men are moved by circumstances
they are tumbled out head foremost,
perhaps. Some men move by their own
energy and for their own purposes they
tumble others out. But there is q third class
of men who are moved by some vague in
fluenco which they can neither comprehend
nor resist, for whose movement one can per-
ceive no sufficient reason in their circum-
stances, and who move toward purposes that
are evidently not their own. Men Of this
class are said to have a mission they arc
sent with express reference to the labor they
take up Exactly who sends them and why
he does it are metaphysical mysteries
points upon which men will differ as they
are born in one or another country. 1t is
sufficient for commonplace world to
recognize these men and their missions,
and the most remarkable of them in modern
times have been Mr. Noodle and Mr.. Nor
rissey.
Mr.. Noodles mission was q comparatively
unimportnnt one 1t was to recognize and
point out the missionary character of nearly
everybody else and specifically ''to pipe his
eye" There is always some moral advantage
to community in the existence of person
whose recognized duty it is TO be fearful
just as the funny man, who can always per-
ccive the point of the smallest joke, takes tho
lead in the chorus Of laughter, and thus pre-
vents people from looking rudely solemn ON
occasions meant to be mirthful so the gen.
tlpmnn whose owes hnve easy conduits pre-
vents u world of IMPROPERLY on the part of q
careless community that might, without him,
suddenly burst into that laughter of the legs
called hornpipo just ut tho moment when
it should be bowed down in lachrymoso
misery. At the present time this function is
brilliantly filed in our part of the world by
Brother Shcarman, of Brooklyn, and we
therefore arc not painfully affected by tho
absence of Noodle. Such fuglcmen, whether
in tears or in laughter or in the less positive
points of personal demoanor, arc of the great
est service to deaf people, to whom, as they
do not always get the drift of things, an ex-
ample is of inestimable value ut critical mo-
ments. They save appearances that some
times become scandalous, as when an old
lady opens her purse TO pay for what it is
quite impossible she could seriously wish to
reward
Only think Of tossing copper
TO Tom or Jack, with timber limb,

Instead Of q song that's very improper

of n nobler sort. 1t is first to give the world

glaring charges that should not be ignored by
the powers that be, and which are serious
enough to call for grand Jury action.

GOLD SEEKING IN THE BLACK HnIs-
The prospects of gold finding in the Black
Hills are not so great as TO excite enthusiasm
in persons possessed of ordinary common
sense What there is of the precious metal
lies hidden away, and will require con-
siderable outlay Of labor and capital before
it can be obtained in paying quantities.
From tho uneven distribution Of the lodes
it will, under the best management, be n
very risky business. Should arrangements
be made with the Sioux for the abandonment
of their rights over the Black Hills poor
men will do well TO give the district wide
berth, unless they go to till the soil, which,
from all accounts, promises better for the
agricultural than mining lnborer. Gold,
nftcr oil, is of less Importance than food, and
an industrious population, rearing cattle and
producing grain, will confer moro benefit on
humanity than would tho most successful
gold seekers.

would be troubled to find more conspicu-
Gus evidence of the truth of Pope's line than
is presented in the career of tho Ajax of Sar- q.
atoga. Against all the facts of his past and
present history there is some prejudice in
the world at large; but these, prac-
tically, are no shame TO him, and
all the distinctions of Tammany politics
have been no honor TO him; for he was supe-
rior TO one and indifferent TO tho other, and
he stands to illustrate for tho youth of the
land the local and national opinion that by
comparison with sturdy manhood and sue
cess all the projudices of morality are rub
Dish.
In the other part of his mission, the puri-
fication of Tammany Hall, wc must all hope
for his great success. And his success is, fol
that matter, not obviously difficult, for the
case is such that, do what he may, he cannot
make the old establishment worse than it is
But some of his notions of publication ar
not happy. He wants, evidently, to drive
out the present occupants, and in that case
we would like TO know who is to purify the

Republican Outlook.
From the Racine Advocate.

We notice that the political CORE
sponjents are busy about the State 10
arranging the states tor the NOvem-
bor election, and the indications are,
that the Retormers will head their
ticket again with Governor Taylor,
and possibly all now in office will be
renominated. The Republican State
ticket has been marked out by know
ing ones TO be about as fellows:
Mayor Lldington, or W. E Smith
of Milwaukee, for Governor.
j. G. Holloway, OF Grant county,
for Lieut.. Governor.
Senator Johnson of Dane, or Brack
EFT. Of the Eau Clsir Free P.eSS, for
Seer etarv Of State.
Maj Henry Bez. of Manitowoc,
for State Treasurer.
Any and all of these men are well
qualified for the positions named, and
If nominated, will make up ticket
that our Reform friends will find
hard TO beat. In cor nection with
Senator H,lloway's name for Lieut..
G7vernor, as he is not so we'll known
an this side of the State, we wish to
say Mr. III. is q staupch Republican,
he has served one term in the Assem-
Ilf. and is nov serving out his fourth
year in The Senate. He WAS Presi
dent ot the Senate in 1874, and made
most excellent presiding officer
and is a gentleman every way quail
fed for the position, and we have nc
doubt hi4 name on the State Ticket
would add strength and bring ou'
from Grant county one of those oil
fashioned, rousing majorities for thu

Third Term.

New York, April 25.-The Graph
ic's " Washington correspondent says
"President Grant is not candidate
for reelection for third term, and
never has been. He never suggested
the idea himself, and never gave any
one the slightest warrant for suppos-
ing that he would take the nomins-
ton if offered, and it is understood
here that, if he had ever been asked
By any authoritative body, he would
have declined to be considered can
didate under any circumstances.
To which the Chicago Journal adds
whether the above is published by
authority or not, it doubtless pre-
sents the real facts So they are. We
do not believe, and never have be.
lieved, that President Grant would
be, or ever desired to be, candidate
for reelection.
