To the unskilled eye OF ordinary humanity
the professional tramp is but vulgar fellow.
unlOvey of look and unclean of person. lie is
stupid in appearance, st0d in behavior, and
besolted in face, and the people who have
learned of late years to look for him as n
daily caller at basement doors and to regard
him as perennial poachcr upon the spare
loaf and the cold joint hold him in 10 very
high esteem
Without doubt there is reason enough for
all this. The business of the tramp is of
kind which makes him unwelcOme, and in
common with lightning-rod men and other
peripatetic seekers after livelihood, he must
endure his share of odium, and can succeed in
his business only by dint of diligence and-nOt
To put too fine point upon it-"cheek.' Am artist
might discover something picturesque in the
tramp IA he lies under waysde trees in the
country, OF suns himself in our city parks;
poet, with cold in the head, might make
something out of him, perhaps, while every
political economist of the rag-money school
must needs admire the skill with which the
tramp applies inilationist philanthropy to the
life problem, and secures all the results of
labor without suffering Its pains and its wcar-
ness In brief. thero are admirable points
about the tramp and his business, but to or
dinary folk he Ia a nuisance, nevertheless,
which sadly needs abating. wherefore the ex-
pertinent recently begun in jersey City, with
view to his suppression, is likely to be
watched with uncommon interest by dwellers
in other places as well as by those Immediately
concerned.
The plan adopted there is very SIMPLE one,
involving no new legislation and giving hardly
any trouble u any b1dv.. II consists simply in

Mr. NTiNLEY'S JOiRNEE.

There is news at last. after long but not un-
expected delay. from the expedition which our
gallant Young cOuntiyman Stanley led INTO
Central Africa at the joint cost of The Aeor-
York Herald and TIE London Daily Telegraph.
With smart eye to business which our
British cousins would call dishonorable if
they were criticisng the behavior of a Yankee,
The telegraph publishes a brief summary OF
this interesting intelligence before sending
copies of the letters to The HGdh The
world will not forget that it ia to the enter
prise and liberaity of the proprietor OF me
Herald and the pluck and ability or his cor
respondent that the chief credit of the eXpe-
dition belongs, and deep as the interest OF
Europe and America must he in the fate OF
the explorers and the nature of their discov-
cries, We cannot but regret that this prema-
turc publication should have robbed the principal
partner in the joint undertaking of his right
to give the news to the world In his own way
MIR. Stanley, at the date of these letters
Qast March,. had made voyage OF over thou
sand miles on the great Victoria Nyanza,
coasting its whole shore, and examining the
large and beautiful islands which diversity its
surface. He thus settled the yexed problem
whether this almost unknown body of water
was a single expansc or collection OF small
lakes as Livingstone supposed. He met at
the northern end an officer of Col. Gord0n's
Eyyptian command, who reached the lake by
way of the Nile, and it was by way OF the
Nile that Mr.. Stanleys letters, trusted
To an African trader. came to their des-
tination after lapse of SIX months.
We catch from the mysterious utterances OF
The Teleqrnph vague hints of remarkable geo
eraphical discoveries, stories of dwarfs, and
giants, and dogs as big as donkeys. and we
are warned to prepare for narratives OF bloody
conflict and hair-breadth escape. OF the $50
men whom the brave explorer took with him
on his march, only 166 remained when he
camped by the borders of the lake. Some
fell in battle, others deserted, many and
among them two Engishmen. Pocock and
Barker - perishcd by disease in the seven
hundred and fifty miles journey.
The DaHy Telegraph gives little more than
this meager outline-just enough TO whet our
appetite for the full story which. even as we
write, may be already before the public. All
Americans will read of the exploits of
Mr.. Stanley with pride in their ad-
venturous countryman, and Journalists
will feel particular complacency IN lc-
flecting that after the secrets of Central Africa
have ballled the organized efforts of learned
societies and Jcfed the richest and most en-
lightened Governments of Europe for so many
generations. they must yield at last TO an
American newspaper.
New-York tribune., 1875-10-11

stated by Mr.. Phillips and Mr. Carey. lhe
fact of tho contraction of tho paper circulation
of France to the extent Of $144, 100000
within two years may be verified by the weekly
statements of the Bank of France, which are
published regularly In the London ana faiis
papers, yet strange to say, neither Nr. fhii-
lips nor Mr.. Carey has yet shown that he IS
aware of it.
". Our space permits us to expose bur q
few of the glaring misstatements OF Mr. fhh-
lips and Mr. Carey with regard to the existing
currencies of Europe and America, but far
ey,mple of them is contained i'll the following
sentence from Mr.. Phillipss last letter to MIR.
Scbu,z: France with all her $GOOOOO,OO OF
"papcr does not trcmble to her center as does
"Germany, because she keeps free on silver as
ga basis while Germany, with gold as her
" sole legal tender, binds herself slave to the
Z" London market, and our bankers are crazy
" 70 have us put on similar British chains, and
"have an agle fit every time London feels
"cold." Those of our readers who watch the
movements of the Bank of England must he
well aware that the slight disturbances of the
English money market since 1870 have been
produced by tho withdrawal of gold from
London for Berlin. r Furthermore, IoT ilic i'tN'
twenty years, up to and including the present
time, Germany has employed much greater
proportion of silver in her coinage than
France has Between 1855 and 1870 the
gold coined at the French mints reached
a total of 5,299, ,85O,740 francs, while
the silver coined was only 556.02O,242
francs, or only about one-tenth the value OF
the gold Since 1850 France has furnished
hundreds Of millions of dollars in silver for
expectation to India and China, supplying its
place with gold. Finally, the new coinage
arrangements, under which gold is to be the
sole legal tender in Germany, do not take effect
until Jan. /, 1876. The facts we have men
toned being ncOntestable what solitary atom
of truth can be found in the passage we have
quoted from Mr.. Phillips? In single SEN
tcnce he contrives to introduce five statements
which are utterly without foundation. We
fully agree with Mr.. Schurz that writer who
shows such contempt for facts, or rather who
displays such ingenuity in invcnting false
hoods, places himself beyond the pale OF dis

the enforcement of existing laws against
varancy and the laws thus enforced do not
differ essentially from those on our own
statute books. The results, thus far, according
to the police authorities. are reduction OF
about % per cent in the number OF appllca-
tons for lodging, and the well-nigh complete
disappearance of tramps and beggars from the
streets. Some have been committed Tor
vagrancy, but the majority have folded their
tents and silently stolen away, which Is to say
that, having no stomach for work upon
the roadways or elsewhere, they have
left Jersey City to ply their trade
in other places-chief of which, IN
all probability, is New-YOrk-so that TO the
unofficial mind the present would seem to be
a particularly good time to try the effect OF
the jersey City plan here at home. The reSuit
thus indicates a disposition on the part OF
tramps as a class to endure very little of what
they doubtless call persecution, and encour-
ages the hope that their abhOrrence OF every
thing like labor will prompt them to shake
from their feet the dust of New-Iork, as they
have that of our neghboring city, the moment
they learn that here, as there, they are in daily
and hourly danger of getting something 10 40

In 1873, Collins, candidate of the Liberals,
or "new party" received 1O,027 votes, and
Stewart, candidate of the Temperance party,
lO277. OF this aggregate of 2O,3O4 votes
probably not fewer than 10000 were drawn
from the ranks of the Republicans. In 1874
there was a Temperance vote OF 1913, ana
not fewer than 10000 Liberal Republicans
voted the Democratic ticket. From the fore
going table we compute the full Republican
strength, including the Liberals, at 100000
votes, and the Democratic strength, with
out the Liberals, at 100000. 1t Is
expected that full vote VIII be thrown at the
approaching clection-probably not less than
$4,000 if the day is fair. If now we reckon
at fire per cent the entire number OF hcileyltes
and other inilationists who will bolt the Repub-
lican ticket and cast their votes for Cary and
Allen, we have 100000 votes for Hayes not
conccding him single vote from the Demo-
cratic ranks. On the other hand, subtractlng
from the assumed Democratic strength one
per cent for dissatisfied Germans, and the
operation of the anti-Cath0lic feeling, and sup
posing that the dissatisfied manifest their re-
sentiment by merely remaining at home, we
have left 247, 800 TO this add 14,OOO for
the $50 and other inhationists and we have
a total of 261, 800 votes for Gov. Allen, which
does not elect him by 4,5O0.
No calculation, however, can be anything
more than guesswork, for the problem con
tains an unknown quantity which the voting
alone can fix. 1t is impossible to estimate the
extent TO which the paper money madness may
have affected Republicans, nor can any one tell
whether the secret desire tor initiation which
many of them entertain will prove strong
enough to carry them out of their own party
and into the bosom OF the Allen and Cary
Democracy. On the other hand there are GER
tainy great many Democrats too heartily
disgusted with Aliens travelling show of quachs
to vote for it under any provocation. Perhaps
tbe recacitrants on either side will balance
each other.

to the question which everybody knew to be
the vital one of the time. As our correspond
cnt well SAYS in the letter from Cincinnati,
which we print to-day, since the struggle
"against the extension of slavery there has
"not been in any State in the Union such a
"square, uncompromsing fight for principle
"as that the supporters of Gov. Hayes have
"caried on" Every day the hopes OF the
Republicans have risen higher and higher, and
the majoritics claimed by tho most sangulne
adherents of Allen have fallen off.
For those who care to speculate at this LATE
hour upon the result, the following table OF
votes cast for the regular tickets of the two
principal parties for the past ten years may
be of use. The period covers twelve elections,
of which all but the last two were Republican
