The New York Herald thinks that the
Western Union telegraph company could
save good deal of money, kill the postal
telegraph scheme, and prevent the orgf n
ization of rival lines, if instead of giving
expensive dinners 10 influential Legislators
and buying. Of rival1ihss, it would devote
it, attention to devising means Whereby
kilograms might be sent with "cheapness,
" certainty and convenience" 1t says that
no one believes. that it costs two dollars
and fifty cents to send ten w.ords.tQ SEP
same humber of,words from New York 10
st. Louis; and it is no use to try to make
the people believe it., And the New
York Herald is about right Let the Wes-
tern Union put their prices down to the
lowest living fgures-fgures that will pay
all reasonable expenses and a fair profit on
bona fde capital-and it will hear no
more of government control. of telegraphs
or the organization of rival companies, or
the construction of rival lines-rivals, in
most instances, simply started for the pur-
pose Of being bought Off, Letthem try it
once, and see how much it will benefit it
self and ihe, public, at the same time.

~ A,few; days ago, in commenting on GER
tain charges made against Columbus De-
lano, we. referred to one alleging an at
tempt to blackmail the Union Pacific rail-
road company by John Qelano, son Of the
secretary, and said, Ia substance, that the
charge was made with such particularly
of names and circumstances, that, if true,
it was impossible to resist the conviction of
the secretary's completely with the son,
and that we hoped the secretary could be
induced 10 spare enough Of his valuable
time to meet the charge. The charge has
been met, not by the secretary however,
but by o. F. Davis, the land agent of the
Union Pacific railroad company referred
to, who telegraphs that the charge Gin 80
" far as it relates to the transactions of the
land department of the Union Pacific
company with the interior department, or
with Secretary Delano, or with his son,
sis incorrect. Having given currency to
the charge, we give equal currency to the
refutation, aud would suggest to the secre-
tary that SO long as a good beginning has
been made, and as he is not now under fire.
from this charge, it is good time to graft
fy the country retiring from the cabinets
but il he rs still disposed to- "stick," the
president might meet the wishes of the re-

TAMMANY TACTICS.

Tammanv, which stands for the demo,
cracy of New York city, has taken advan-
tage of the sultry days of summer to make
the pretenss of purifying the party. We
use the word 'pretense" advisedly, for if
their action is.anything more than pretense
a mere outside show, the leaders are want
ing in that political sagacity with. which
they have been generally credited and
which everyone knows they possess. We
doubt not that there is more or less of real
strife in the ranks and among the leaders
ofTammany, for that has always existed
and always will exist SO long as there are
offices to be distributed and disappointed
office seekers to be conclliated, but that
there is any determined effort to drive
John Morrissey out of Tammany hall is
too preposterous for belief. It MAY be
that Wickham and Kelley and others think
that Morfissey is not quite good enough for
them to associate with that his moral
character, his antecedents and his present
occupations reflect no particular credit up
on Tsmmany hall or the democratic party;
and that he will not be satisfied without a
lions share of the spoils all may be true,
but when it comes to placing him without
the pale Of the party, and with him neces-
EARLY his adherents, 1t is altogether another
thing.

Murder Trial.

At the ensuing term of the Grand Isle
county court, commencing on the 3lst inst,
it is understood Isaiah Lawya will be tried
for killing Willie Young. States Attorney
Adams and II. G. Edson are entered for
the prosecutions and Willard Harrington
for the defence. :. Lawya, it will be re-
membered, killed Young one year ago, who
was aiding the proper officers in effecting
his arrest after dark; and it is claimed in
his behalf that he did so strictly within the
line of proper self-defence; that his as
sailants in great numbers and with great
noise lie an ''army with business" spr-
rounded his domicil in the night season,
without in any manner indicating tho OBJ
ject of their visitation; and that after sew
eral Intellectual warnings to them to depart;
he fred and killed one of them as he had
a perfect legal right to do not being obliged
to wait till he and his were wholly 1t the
mercy of midnight assassins or robbers.

A Post Office Robbed.

On Monday evening the postoffice at St.
Adams Bay George Younger p. m.) was
entered by breakirg out pane of glass
from front window, removing the fast
ening and then raising the window, ana
$40 in cash was taken from the. drawer,
85 from registered letter, $35 in stamped
envelopes, S25 in stamps and 80 in multi
ated scrip. A bag Of specie was not dis
covered and the official stamps, which lay
with the others, were not taken. Nothing
was taken from the store. No clue was
left behind and there are no suspicious. II
is evident that the robbery was not COM
mitted by burglar.
