The shock Of an earthquake was DISTINCTLY
felt Dy several of our citizens on Wednesday
night about II O'Clock. The shock only
lasted probably few seconds, but is repre-
sented as being quite severe. A slight scare
is all the damage we have heard Bedford

A Cold wave from the Northwest.

The Signal Service meteorological observa-
tions of yesterday indicate the approach OF
wave Of cold from the Northwest, which
threatens to be of extremely low tempera-
ture. The thermometer at Fort Garry and
Pembina fell to two degrees above zero, with
barometer of 80 Is inches, making fall of
twenty-eight degrees in thirty-six hours
There IS a low barometer over the Middle
Mississippi Valley, and drifting toward u.s.
which will bring clouds and rain in New
York, with rising temperature and north
easterly winds until the passage northeast
ward of the depression. Then the northwest
wind will set in, bringing intense cold, and
converting into snow all the vapor in the at
mosphere There is prospect of the early,
perhaps temporary, closing Of canal naviga-
ton during the passage of the cold wave pre-
dicted. The indications over the meteoro-
logical field of the United States and Canada
show an abnormal condition of the at
mosphere Yesterday there were two dis
tinct barometric depressions-one over Texas
and the other over the vicinity of Cape Hat
teras. A great wedge, as it were, of dense
cold air has been forcing Itself between them,
driving the eastern depression into the At
lantic and the western one to the southwest
The points along the lines Of contact between
these high and low areas have had heavy
rains, especially at Memphis where the rain
fall was 1G9 inches in eight hours. The
bitter cold that carries terror and suffering
to the homes Of the poor is fast approaching
US. All eyes will turn on the wealthy for aid
during the coming winter. There is no
nobler use to which wealth can be put than
the relief Of suffering humanity. Let us
hope that the cold of winter will not freeze
the hearts of the charitable citizens of New
York, but that they will become the gener-
Gus stewards of Gods bounty to their suffer-
ing fellow IN zen.

BRITISH DIPLoMATIsTs often make theme
selves ridiculous in zeal for their sovereign |,
but Sir Harry Parkes, who represents Her
Majesty in Japan, is about the most absurd
Minister IN the whole list. 1t seems from
our letter from Toxic this morning that the
Emperor Of Japan is called Ko Tel, the name
for King being 0. There being no gender in
the Japanese language, the good Queen Vic
toria was called M O., or ''female king"
whereupon Sir Harry demanded that Ko Tel
should be the appellation of Her Gracious
Majesty as we'll as of the divine ruler Of
Japan

The PROGRESS OF THE PANDORA is graphi-
cally described in the interesting letter from
the HERALD special correspondent which we
give in another part of the paper. The charms
Of the Greenland ladies are done ample
justice to, and it is pleasant to find that even
among the dreary Arctic regions woman's
heart glows with refreshing warmth. The
description given of the hop on board the
Pandora, where the ladies danced in
breeches, and the pleasant coaling scene in
company with pretty Esquimau lasses, will
fire many gallant youth with desire for
well as its hardships.

1t Cannot BE Dropped.

We note in contemporary that the bank
ruptcy proceedings in the case of Mr.. Clews,
50 far as the claim Of B. III. Cheever is con-
cerned, will be dropped 'by the consent of
both parties" AS our readers will remem-
ber Mr.. Cheever brings suit against Mr.
Clews for share of the profits accruing
from the appointment Of Mr.. Clews to be the
financial agent of the American government
in London. Mr.. Cheever proved that he had
made an agreement with Mr. Clews before
the appointment to the effect that if he sue
ceeded in obtaining it he should receive a
certain share of the profits. Mr.. Clews adj
mitted that he had made such an agreement
and that he had also agreed to pay another
part of the profits to person named Van
Buren, This Van Buren, cannot be found,
and it is believed that he is myth, that he
was chosen to cover some other party who
did not care to become prominent in SO sus-
picious transaction.
Mr. Cheever has the right to drop his case
against Mr.. Clews if he chooses, but the mat
ter itself cannot be dropped. The fact that
the financial agent of the government in Lon
don was appointed by bargain, on It's lace
corrupt is matter that should come to the
attention Of the democratic House of Repre-
sentatives This whole business of the APP
pointment of Mr.. Clews as financial agent is
one Of the most suspicious that has come to
light during the present administration. We
can understand very readily why prominent
parties, if they had any hand in the proceed
ings, would be glad to induce Mr.. Cheever
to withdraw his suit and 'have the matter
dropped" but the public sentiment Of the
country will not be so satisfied. If Mr..
Cheeyer should drop his suit and close the
inquiry, which we are informed is his inten-
tion the first duty of Congress on assembling
IN December will be to appoint committee
to examine the whole matter.

MIR. JencIses and civil Service Reform.


The death of Thomas A.. Jenckes, Of Rhode
Island, recalls the fact that he was the
author of civil service reform IN
this country, and that whatever vitality
the movement possessed was due to the zeal
and ability with which he pressed his famous
measure in Congress. Mr.. Jenckes was moi
great man or a great statesman, but he sue
ceeded in doing what few public men in this
country have done-linking his name with
great popular measure in the inception OF
which he showed both statecraft and politi-
cal wisdom. If we look back over the list
of American statesmen who have died
within comparatively recent period
Mr. Sumner, Mr. Fillmore, Mr.. john
son, Mr. Breckenridge and General
Blair-we cannot fail to recognize the fact
that none Of them originated any great meas
ure of State policy They followed rather
than directed public opinion, and when they
differed with the ruling sentiment of the
country they failed in their endeavors Mr..
Jenckes was not their equal, either as a
leader or follower but choosing single
theme for himself he made it an issue in
American politics, almost by his own un-
aided efforts, and struck blow at political
patronage which has already done much to
undermine and destroy the old Jacksonian
theory that ito the victors belong the spoils."
While Congress could not be induced to pass
Mr. Jenckes bill, or, indeed, any bill OF
similar purpose or import, both parties have
already recognized and adopted the prin-
ciples Of that measure, and civil service re-
form will continue to be an issue in our poll
tics SO long as appointments to Office ara
made to subserve party ends. In the death
of man capable of originating measure
which has already had so great an effect upon
public sentiment and which must continue
to exercise a strong influence for good we
recognize a national loss, and it is due to Mr..
Jenckes' fame to say that few men Of his
time rendered more effective or intelligent
service to their country

THE COMPLAINT Of the Herzegovinian
insurgents submitted to the six consuls,

idea Of the blessings of Turkish rule. Even
if there is exaggeration, the picture given Of
the condition of the unfortunate rayahs is
gloomy in the extreme, and it is but natural
they should revolt against the government
that keeps them in such misery.

ST. TAMMANY. -The insight into the
workings Of the Tammany Society which we
publish to-day will afford some idea Of the
arbitrary powers within the reach Of the
leaders Of that organization. Tho question
that now agitates the minds of the politicians
is, Who will be the next ambitious aspirant
for John Kelly's forfeited place? 1t is thought
that some outside or anti Tammany democrat
may obtain the leadership, but they will all
do well to take lesson from Mr.. Benjamin
Wood, who, although one Of tho most
effective workers for the result that
has been achieved in the recent election.
declares that he has no relish for place
where there is nothing but hard criticism
and open rebellion to be encountered. The
thought will no doubt occur to many minds,

The Negotiations In Europe.

Evidently there is a negotiation Of grand
proportions on foot just now between several
of the Cabinets in Europe; and by the scraps
Of fact that drop out from time to time the
curious may speculate on the magnitude Of
what is kept secret. 1t is probable that the
fate Of Turkey is tolerably well determined
already between the parties to this nego-
tiation; because Turkey has no friends no
body has in her welfare an interest that they
can afford to fight over she is in the way of
several Of her neighbors; and the Power
whose commercial obstinacy formerly as
sumed the mantle Of public honesty and vir-
tue is no longer an obstacle to those equally
selfish but more sincere nations who con-
ceive and declare that the division of the
Ottoman Empire is one Of the plainest OBJ
legations of craftsmanship. Turkey had
friends till very lately-fnancial friends
Britain was interested in her so long as
Lombard street had Turkish loans with
which to victimize a gullible public, and
so longas Turkey could borrow, even on LON
bard street conditions, she had possible vi
tality But Russian intrigue has secured
that measure Of Reputation which has cut
Turkey off from support in that quarter She
is left therefore to her neighbors- for division.
The first incision is to be made by Austria,
who is appointed to draw up an outline of
the political department to be required of
Turkey. If she fails to live up to the terms
presented the alternative will be occupation.
Naturally the terms will be such as she can
not possibly live up to. Englands declara-
ton touching Egypt is her cry Of alarm at
the rapid movement Of this complication the
late assertion of claim for part of the spoil.
Italy, France, Austria Russia and Prussia have
all to consent before England will be per-
mitted to occupy Egypt, and every one OF
them has some interest against it; while If
Egypt passes into the hands Of a Power op-
posed to England in the East her CONNER
cial supremacy will be il danger. Perhaps
the occasion with regard to which the Khe-
dive filed his army with American officers is
not distant.

MILK is NECESSITY to large majority Of
mankind. The audience at the break
fast table will doubtless be interested, this
morning in an account Of proceedings in tho
Marine Court yesterday, in q suit between q
farmer and o Teutonic dealer in the Tactic
fluid, which is published in another column.
The investigation before the scat Of Justice
developed facts which will not enhance the
opinion Of the milk consumer Of the honesty
Of either the farmer or his customer. The
most startling Of these is that which points
to q possibility that some day whole families
may be poisoned through the ignorant expert
ments Of such men in the prevention Of sour
ing in milk by the use Of chemicals or drugs.
The adulteration which results from pilfer-
ing at railway stations Is less dangerous and
may exist only in the imagination
Of the farmer rs an original falsohood
invented for the protection Of his own repu-
taton.

THE THIRD AVENUE BANK.-Now that the
election is over and we can bring our mind
to graver topics, we think there should be an
inquiry into the Third Avenue Savings Bank
of the most thorough character. The failure
of this bank is disgraceful proceeding. If
our savings banks were properly managed
such a failure would be impossible. 1t is
due to the other organizations which control
SO many millions of the peoples money,
especially Of our poorer classes, that the
Third Avenue business should be carefully
investigated and that the men, if there
are any, who have misused its funds and
brought distress upon 50 many worthy
laborers, should be punished by the law or
by the public execration which would follow
their exposure through the press

Political Consequences OF the Late
Elections.

The first thing prudent military command
ers do after battle is to muster their men
and ascertain their effective strength for
future contests. A disinterested spectator
or military critic who attempts to form a
judgment would wish to examine the foster
Of both sides As the State elections of Tues
day were the last considerable trial OF
strength between our two great political
parties previous to the national can
vass of next year, we will in
sert lists Of the democratic and re
publican States, making the result of
the latest election in each State the touch
stone of its political character. There are
two States which we find it difficult to class
North Carolina and Wisconsin. According
to the last returns, Wisconsin, which held
an election on Tuesday, chose republican
Governor and democratic Legislature; and
North Carolina was pretty evenly balanced
in August, if we reckon by the strength Of
the two parties in the Constitutional Con-
vention. We put North Carolina on the re-
publican side because the republicans had
popular majority Of fifteen thousand, al
though they did not elect quite majority of
the delegates, owing to the manner in which
the State is districted. The Presiden-
tial electors are voted for on general ticket,
and it is proper to assign the State to the re-
publicans since they had popular majority.
We Also but with more hesitation, put Wis
consin in the list of republican States, be-
cause it seems to have elected republican
Governor, by the same rule which makes
New York a democratic State for the reason
that it has elected the democratic State ticket
with republican Legislature. We will first
insert the list of democratic States, with the
number of Presidential electors to which
each is entitled -
