ANOTHER CENTENNIAL.-It is sug-
gested by the Graphic that there be
another centennial celebration in due
time of a great American evsnt-that
of the evacuation of New York by the
British troops, seven years hence. 1t
was in 1888 that the last foreign SOL
der quit our shores, and the great
Washington, who had been urged to
become dictator and declare himself
king, surrendered his sword and re-
turned to private life. This event de-
serves natl nal commemoration, and
Philadelphia has shown the nation
how to celebrate it. Now then the
popular heart is to be fred for the
centennial of 1888 to the advantage of
New York.

THE GEAR AND THE QUEEN.-The
assurances given by the Gar through
Lord LOTUS to the British government
would seem to dispel at last the ling
ering fears of war between those two
great powers on account of the Turk
ish complications. The Gar, with as
much emphasis as frankness character
ICES as unfounded the report of any in
tended conquest of Turkish territory,
and absurd the suspicion of any des-
igns on his part against India. His
ami mus in all his movements has been
the amelioration of the condition of the
Christians under Turkish rule which
he says has been intolerable and if he
is not supported in his demands for
reforms by the other powers he will
endeavor to enforce them alone. His
views, it appears from the dispatches,
are entirely satisfactory to England.

Among the numerous falseboods

effect that " When he was IL member Of

bill in that body TO deprive the
Hebrew citizens of that State of certain
rights and privileges. The LIE was
published by the organs in this State,
and appeared in the Reno Journal OF
July IL. A citizen of Reno forwarded
copy of the Journal containing the
report to Governor Ti3en, aud asked
for reply. He received the following
letter by return:

To --, Esq, Reno, Washoe
County, AeUada DEAR SIR: Governor
Tilden has received your favor of the

There are some inaccuracies in the
newspaper article you inclose
First--Mr. Tilden never was mem
Der OF the New York Senate.
Secoud--He never introduced bill
in to that or any other body which de-
prived Hebrew citizens of any rights or
privileges.
Third--He never claimed that the
Hebrews We're not fit to become Ameri-
can citizens.
Fourth The Hebrews in New York
city are not forming powerful organi-
cation to oppose him.
Fifth--He numbers among his closest
friends aud warmest supporters many
gentlemen who adhere to that ancient
faith.
Trusting that have fully answered
your note. am. respectfully yours,

poses etfectually of the bare faced at
