..The Men in the Cap.

1t is interesting to observe the anxiety
with which the leaders Of the different
parties are looking around for ''good men"
to place on their State tickets. When a po-
litical party is in bad way the leaders,
the real, active politicians who have made
all the money and shared all the spoils,
retire into the background and urge ''good
men" 'to the front" When an election
is doubtful the politician is anxious to
have the best men 'stand in the gap"
The Saratoga Convention imagined that it
could put into ''the gap" men like William
M. Evarts, E. ID. Morgan and John Bigelow.
1t never occurred to the Custom House in
absolute power in the State such men were
not wanted. When it was proposed to NOM
mate George William Curtis for Governor at
a time when nomination looked promising,
his throat was publicly cut by Charles S.
Spencer and his body was tumbled out of
the Convention without ceremony. Those
were the days when the party was powerful
and strong, when good men" were
not wanted. Now in the dark days the
Custom House inspectors pteously calfupon
them to ''come to the front"
We see the same spirit in the dem
ocratic party. When the democrats were
absolute in New York they were satisfied TO
elect Tammany Hall thieves and Canal Ring
thieves and all kinds Of adventurers to
power. 1t was democratic administration
which robbed New York. But now the party
is on its good behavior. 1t is fighting for a
Presidential prize, and we have all manner
of good men, "solid men" who are asked
TO 'come to the front, and 'stand in the
gap" It is amusing to see these tricks on the
part Of politicians II it showed eny real
awakening any sense of inc fitness Of good
men for office, we would accept it as the be-
ginning of a new era in our politics; but we
are afraid that no such advantage is to come.
Politicians seek GOOD men in their day OF

piled upon our Indebtedness with nothing
to show for it except a bundle of law
suits in the hands of Mr.. O'Conor, and a
crowd of richly endowed lawyers fighting in
the courts. But we trust we have not for
gotten this lesson of the Tammany regime.
We hope that there is public spirit and
honesty and courage enough in the people to
manage their own affairs and to see that the
execution of this great work is intrusted to
competent and honest men. We have
long been accustomed to despise our
neighboring city of Philadelphia as a slow,
pastoral, sluggish town, but every day
shows indications of a new life in that city.
Buildings are springing up in all directions.
Streets are opened, colleges and public build
ings, institutions of charity and science are
in process of erection. Fairmount Park is
much larger and more attractive than our
Central Park, and, to crown all, the citizens Of
Philadelphia, almost single handed, with the
exception of the aid they have received from
their own State, are preparing for an exhibi-
ton which is to celebrate before the world
the glory and prosperity and advancement
of the American nation. Yet at this
time New York, with infinitely more
wealth than Philadelphia and with as
much capacity, let us trust, for self
government and great deeds, lies in the rut
stagnant and dormant, growing worse and
worse from day to day, disgrace to its own
citizens and stigma to the nation. The
suggestions of our correspondent are worthy
of the gravest reflection. We feryently hope
they will not be as seed sown upon barren
ground, but that out of this unfortunate and
disastrous condition New York. in emulation
of her genius and historic fame, may rise up
in her strength and make herself the worthy
metropolis Of great nation.

The Path OF the Hurricane.

The disastrous hurricane which has visited
Galveston, Texas, and threatened to
overwhelm the city, has commenced its
northerly journey and will soon be upon u.s.
After sweeping over the West Indian islands
it followed direct westerly course until it
reached the land on the Texan coast, when,
guided by the Gulf Stream, it began to curve
northward and eastward until it has already
arrived at the mouth of the Mississippi.
Thence it will cross Florida and, following
the Atlantic coast line, will sweep along over
the seaboard cities, visiting Savannah,
Charleston, Baltimore, New York, New
London and the Maine coast in succession,
and will finally become lost to observation
after it passes northeasterly over Nova Scotia
Present indications, verified by the orders
for cautionary storm signals from the Signal
Service Office, 60 to show that the storm will
take this coast line in its progress north. The
extraordinary rise of the tide at Galveston
presents a phenomenon both interesting
and instructive. The velocity Of the strong
current of the Gulf Stream flowing in the
direction of the storm track, and doubtless
influencing the course of the meteor, has been
so accelerated 10y the pressure of the wind as
to carry an enormously increased volume of
water into the basin of the Gulf of Mexico,
which has caused piling up Of the waters
at the point where the current changes direc-
ton TO the eastward Galveston is located
at this point, and consequently re-
ceived the full weight and volume Of
the storm wave. The direction of the gales
experienced by the ship Marcia Greenleaf in
latitude 20 deg. % min, longitude 81 deg
40 min, shows that the vessel was caught in
the northern semicircle of the storm during
its westerly progress, the centre being near
Havana, Cuba. The observations of the Sig
nal Service Department have become so gen
eral and systematized that the results are
proving Of incalculable benefit to commerce.
Vessels ready forsea are no longer despatched
from port without a careful consultation oftlre
weather reports and probabilities, and so ac-
curate are the deductions Of the Signal Office
from the mass of meteorological data daily
supplied from all parts of the United States by
! skilled observers that the weather prognosti-
cations are absolutely correct in ninety-fve
cases out Of hundred We are now enabled
to determine the path Of q storm by simply
noting the point where il first makes its ap-
pearance It will be observed, for instance,
from the teegraphic weather reports from the
] central Office in Washington. that while the
The New York herald., 1875-09-19

danger signals were ordered at New Orleans
and Mobile, in the South they were also dis
played at Eastport, Me-, in the North, while
the intermediate points were not signalled
until the course of the storm northward from
the Gulf was determined. The two tracks
open-namely the Mississippi and Ohio val
leys and the Atlantic coast-both have com
mon termini and until the storm entered on
either it would be impossible to predict
which track would be followed This has
now been determined and the danger signals
are flying at all points along the line.

THE WINTER CoA1-A society that buys
coal at wholesale prices and sells it to its
members AZ cost, or at an advance sufficient
to cover expenses, is very useful. It should
be organized in the summer and the money
should be then paid in by instalments This
plan we have repeatedly suggested, but as
to whether il has been acted upon by any
large number Of our citizens we are not in
formed. Such a society is not a charity it
is simply proyident organization by which
poor people may secure winter coal at mod-
crate rates. IL may be too late to act upon
that suggestion now, but our charitable in
stitutions should do something to break up
the bucket system by which coal is re-
tailed in small quantities, and which is
nothing more than a robbery Of tie very
poorest classes in tue city.

THE WAR IN CUBA-About six hundred

claim to her monarch, as did Caesar to his

WHAT ATTORNEY GENERAL PRATT TH1NKs.-
Attorney General Pratt tells HERALD cor
respondent that he does not think Cover
nor Tilden the only man in the State who
will not steal. He does not think Mr.. Fair
child, nominated at Syracuse to be his sue
cessor, the ablest lawyer in the State; and
he does think that a man who is open,
square and aboyeboard, and scorns decep-
ton, treachery, ingratitude and under
hand dealing is quite as honest as one
who simply refuses to pick pocket.
The opinions of an Attorney General are
always valuable and in this case they are
especially interesting to number of people,
politicians and others, to whom we recon-
mend their perusal in our correspondents

Pulpit Topics To-Day.

Since Messrs. Moody and Sankey have
begun their evangelistic labors in Massa-
chusetts, and are expected among us ere
long, Mr.. Mccarthy will to-day discuss one
of their doctrines embodied in the phrase,
sheltered behind the blood" the truth
of which he doubts. And in view of their
coming, and of the approaching revival
season, Mr.. Lloyd already sees a vision
of slain souls, as the result of the work to
be done through God, the strength and por-
ton of believers. But such result must be
the reward of faith, as it will be presented
by Mr.. Hawthorne. We may have various
ideas Of the uses of church going, but Mr.
Alger will give his to-day, and define the
place of the pulpit in modern society; and
Mr.. Hepworth, who has returned, ready
for work, will give us his reasons
why a revival is needed in this
city and how Christ draws all men to him
self, and as Mr.. Ganse will show, makes
friends for himself here among men. Mr.
Leavell in view of the brevity of time, will
inquire what constitutes unbelief, and find
ing the cause and the elements of the disease,
will be able to suggest the remedy. Mr..
Kennard believes the Christian to be tenn
pie in whsm conscience, the voice of God, is
heard, and to which attention should be
given now, because, according to Mr.. Light
bourns thought, when Christ returns to
earth He will look for pure religion, and where
shall He find it if not in believers? The
resurrection will receive consideration from
Mr.. Loutrel, while Mr.. Taylor will bring
Lazarus out Of the grave and young men out
of the fire if SO he may by death or life by
destruction and salvation induce some to
turn to God And if all these things fail,
the man who calls himself the Messenger of
God and who claims the right to pronounce
woe to the world, will open the sealed book
and declare the events that are to result
therefrom so that, whether men will hear or
forbear, yet shall they know that prophet
hath been among them.
