ATTENTION is called to the advertise

for sealed proposals for the redemption
of seven thousand five hundred dollars
worth of the ten per cent. ten year
funding bonds of 1878, and the ten per
cent. twenty year street Improvement
bonds issued in 1878. The fact that the
city Is enatled to call in some of her
bonds long before they are due, speaks
well for the financial management of
the present Council, and gives US
pleasure to record the fact. We shall
revert to the subject again tomorrow,
and give some facts and figures that

Summary Of the Criminal Docket In
Precinct No. One, Dallas County.
The following Is the list of criminal
cases brought before Presiding Justice
Burford since the oath day of April
last: murder, 2; theft, rs; assault and
battery, so; perjury, 5; carrying pistol
IS; assault with intent to murder, 10 ;
winding, 8; malicious mischief, |

waited assault, s; arson, 2; disturbing
religious worship, 2; carrying brass
knucks, making total of 240 cases.
OF these 1877 were felony cases, til par
ties being either hound over to appear
before the Criminal District Court or
discharged.
Speaking Of the large number of fell.
ony cases brought before his Honor,
Judge Burford, 1t might be added rs an
item of news as well rs of information
to THE HERALD's readers, that all the
evidence in these cases IL reduced to
writing, for which the State allows no
compensation. How this is accounted
for, few can tell, ut all are aware that
It was the work of the Fourteenth
Legislature. That the State should ex-
pect its officers to perform their
respective duties IN this connection,
without any compensation, is absurd,
aud in view of the fact that the laborer
is worthy of his hire, it is to he hoped
chat the members Of the present. Con-
yention will give this their attention,
and rectify this serious mistake.

Mns. LiNcoLN.-A letter from Batavia,
Illinois, to the Chicago Sal, gives some ac-
count Of the mental condition and surround
ings Of the widow of the ex president, at her
retreat in Batavia. The writer says;
/ inquired after the health Of Mrs President
Lincoln, who Is an inmate OF Bellevue Place since
her insanity was decided by the courts Of Chicago.
The doctor was exceedingly rotcent about that
unfortunate lady, and while professionally de-
prccated his caution, could not butapproye ofhis
delicacy. by degrees learned that Mrs Lincoln
gave but little trouble, that She rested well, and
was quite satisfied with her surroundings
carriage is always at her disposal, and She fre-
quently drives out, always with the doctor and
Mrs. Patterson, or her own attendant, a rather
attractive young woman belonging 10 the retreat
In regard 10 her riding, Mrs Lincoln is very ca
PRECIOUS She will announce her intention Of rid
Ing before dinner, then postpone the ride until
afternoon, and again until evening or the next
day. She brought with her ten large trunks,
which have not been examined, but are supposed
TO contain part Of the miscellaneous collection Of
purchases made during her stay at the Grand
Pacific Hotel, in Chicago Shortly after her ar
rival here, Mrs Lincoln ordered a morning dress
Of black French cambria quite deliberately made
white basque and pockets and black and white
striped lawn remarldng that every lady needed
cool toilets. She has never worn them, or
eyinced any disposition to even try them ON, but
as soon as they were completed ordered samples
Of black alpaca, from which to select n suit her
mind was diverted from this, as 1t was only her
malady to accumulate material. Her dress is ut
all times plain, oven to shabbness, and no one
could be more Indifferent to effects Of the toilet
In one Of Mrs. Lincons trunks mt the retreat are
two very expensive doll-babies She accounts for
their presence by saying she intends to present
them to Robert Iincoln's little daughter, OF whom
she syery fond

TnE KENTUCKY ELEcrIoN-ke Kentucky,
Mt its last gubernatorial election, in 1871,
gave a democratic majority of more than
thirty-seyen thousand votes, the Republicans
then, as now, having the popular Gen IIar-
lon as their standard-bearer, Last fall, at
an election for clerk of the court of appeals,
the democratic majority was more than sixty
thousand. The choice of the democratic
candidate for governor at the election TO be
held on Monday next is, therefore, assured,
and the chief interest politicians will have
in the returns will be in relation TO his ma
jority. The legislature to be chosen will
elect a national Senator, and the several as
pirants for the place have sought TO secure
the election Of their friends with so much
Of the spirit of rivalry, that the Republicans
may be enabled TO elect more than their
usual number Of the members. The can.
yass between General lIarlon aud Colonel
McCrcery has been an unusually animated
one, as they have spoken together some fifty
times in the leading towns of the state, be-
fore large audiences. The Republicans Of
the country have been assured that their
party has been gaining strength in Ken
lucky, because of the adoption Of the policy
of putting the strongest aud best men at the
'front.' and a reduction Of the democratic ma
jority Of four years ago is anticipated

Narrow Gauge Railroad.

Tnr Boston Traveller well says The ex-
pertinent Of narrow gauge railroad be.
tween Boston and Lynn will be watched
with interest by many who care nothing for
real estate operations, INF (which some of its
managers are engaged, aud little for the sue
cess Of the efforts Of the people of Lynn to
secure an opposition railroad line TO Boston
II is true that cheaper railroad fares between
the two cities may be of mutual advantage
but II is hardly probable there will be
enough Of variation from existing rates to
make it a matter OF much interest with the
general public, save as it may throw light
on the question Of running narrow gauge
railroads where it win not pay TO run those
Of ordinary gauge. 1t is also true that Bos.
ton will be greatly benefited by the occu-
pancy with dwelling houses Of the large
tracts Of charmingly situated but unoccu-
pied land within the city limits but the
improvements anticipated, important as
they are likely to bc, will have greater
value if It is shown that narrow gauge rail.
roads can be relied upon to do a similar
work in other places. All over New Eng
land there are districts where railroads will
never be built otherwise than Of a narrow
gauge, and those who live there, or seek to
make Improvements there, will be largely
influenced 10y the results of this enterprise.
1t has been demonstrated that railroad
can be cheaply built aud equipped and the
public will soon know whether trains can be
run upon them swiftly, safely and economi-
cally. The energy, the perseverance, the in
tegrity, the prudence of the managers has
already been clearly shown, and if success is
possible-and Of this there is little doubt
they are sure to secure it Lag the new road.
There are many things IN their favor. The
Boston terminus, near the business center of
the city, is desirable one. The route has
many attractions, especially in the summer
season. The cost is so small it will not re-
quire large earnings over the expenses to sat
isfy the stockholders-and with some of
them dividends are but secondary consid-
Grafton. They are interested in real estate,
which, properly improved, will give the city
of Boston the most attractive summer re-
sorts in the country, so near TO State street
that they can be reached in twenty-five min
utes 10y n ride over a road that promises to
be remarkably pleasant, comfortably cool,
and free from dust, and they hope by means
of the railroad to sell their land, and by the
sales Of lands to increase the business of
their road and they certainly have rea-
sonable prospect Of being able to accomplish
these results.

thousands who have been the victims of a
misplaced confidence in their integrity. But
it is the system which they represent that
deserves the utmost apprehension. The
farmer who gets large wages by securing
large and superior crops, is making money
BEAUTIFULLY. The merchant who facilitates
the exchanges Of life and receives fair
profit, makes money righteously. The banker
who invests his capital in rcdeemabe cur
rency and takes fair interest ON his loans
is true to integrity. Any man who gives
fair service of any sort for fair wages is
honest and true but he who eats what he
docs not earn, who wears what his labor does
not pay for, who robs or ill or forgcs note
who initiates a scheme to make profit out oi
his neighbours simplicity or ignorance, who
takes anything from any man, directly or in-
directly, without fair equivalent, is not
worthy Of honorin his prosperity nor Of SYM
pathy in his failure. To get little honestly
is better than TO get millions fraudulently
The riches on which no curse rests are worth
having We trust that these failures may
nave a healthful moral effect We are sure

happy persons who are so unfortunate as 20

lSFLATIoN AT THE WEsT.--The advocates
of paper currency, and more of it, are
forced to admit that there is much idle cap
ital in the country, and much that is earning
only low rate Of interest and now they
say the cause of the " hard times is the I'M
willingness Of Eastern capitalists 10 lend
money at the West on such securities as
the men who wish 10 establish foundres,
and run railroads, and erect factories,
and build up villages in that section, are
able to give. The managers Of savings
banks, and Of institutions having money
to lend, are too timid for them. They
want a new class of institutions to re-
ceiye money for investment, under the man
agement Of men who viii foster Western
enterprises, aud nothing else will content
them. II is not the scarcity of money that
they complain Of; their troubles arise from
the fact that they do not have the handling
of what there is--the owners Of money be-
ing unwilling to part with it. Aud they are
crazy enough to believe that long before the
millennium there will be an era different
from this, where men will labor and scheme,
and save, to pile up fortunes, not for their
own use, but to enable those to have the
handling Of money who have neither saved
nor earned it.

ANOTHER ArPEAL.--The appeal for aid
for the sufferers from the terrible floods in
the south of France, has reached th. coun-
try, in letter from the wife Of President
MacMahon. The losses by food disaster in
the United States, dreadful as some of them
have been-as for instance, the Mill river
disaster-were as much lighter than those
from the flood Garone, as the great city
through which the tide of destruction poured
is more populous than the little towns in
western Massachusetts, and the famed val.
ley Of the Garrone richer than the hilly
region of New England. Sudden destruc-
ton, so widespread and so complete, has
rarely been known in any catastrophe of
modern times. 1t is not only national ca
lamity, but one appealing to the commiser-
GRAFTON of the whole civilized world. 1t is
to be hoped the people Of the United States
will not be backward in testifying the large
ness and catholicity Of her sympathy with
those needing aid in France.

RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE San Miguel,
which is in San Salvador has had sort of
religious massacre. There was a quarrel
between the church and the government, and
priest preached a sermon against the lat
ter, which led the people to uprising and to
the preparation of the worst atrocities-kill-
ing soldiers aud citizens, aud burning many
houses, and so forth. The property des-
troyed is valued at 100000. When the
mob was put down, with the aid Of British
marines, number of them were shot; and
on the persons of some of the dead were
found passports, which read thus "Peter,
open to the bearer the gates of heaven, who
died for religionl" They bore the sigma.

TnE MASSACHUSETTS CONFERENCE.-THE
The canvass for the nomination for cover.
nor at the Massachusetts Republican State
Convention, may be an active one, but it
promises 10 be devoid of that bitterness and
personality that have marked some of the
contests Of late years. The men most prom
inently named would not encourage any
other than friendly contest, even If their
friends desired ii, but there are no circum-
stances that would justify personal attacks
on any one of them. They are each men Of
high character, and without personal enc
mics, and have given evidence in many ways
of the possession of abilities fitting them
for the position TO which they aspire, and in
which their friends desire to see them placed.
The party will be trengthened, and the COM
monwealth honored by the election of either
OF them.

FREEDOM AT THE SOUTH - When the
white people of the South concede to the
colored people of that section equal civil
and political rights, there will be no neces-
sity for party pledged to their maintenance.
But while there is denial of those rights at
the South, there is likely to be an assertion OF
those rights by party at the North. The
responsibility for such party rests, not upon
those who belong to it, but upon those whose
declarations and acts make it necessary
There will be no party organized to help the
colored people when the time comes that they
do not need help. Some OF tho leading men
OF the South have recently DECLARED their
willingness to do justice to the eolored PEG
pie, and we are willing to take them at their
word. But it is not yet apparent that the
majority of their people win agree to this,
and while they maintain an attitude of hos
tility to the freedmen, it is too early for their
friends to disarm.
