Once more we hear from J. Thomas Spriggs.
He has lowered out in a letter TO Mr.. Gray,
Chairman of the State Democratic Committee,
in which he explains in way ut once muddled
and manly how he came to telegraph 60 on
" and finish your ticket" He confirms all pre-
vious statements and misstatements; and leaves
us (nO longer harassed by doubt to admire
the fiuidity of his English and the force of his
imagination. off Gov. Seymour had accepted"
SAYS Spriggs, al should have telegraphed words
"of no uncertain sound-words which the
chairman of the Committee of Ten would
"haye been proud to have read TO the con-
" vention.n Here is another dead loss occa-
stoned by Gov. SeyInOur's declinauOn-words,
winged words, the best words which Mr..
Spiges could have found in Webster I'm
abridged, words which Chairman OF Com
mittee of Ten or even of Twenty, OF possibly
of Thirty-sevcn and Half, would have been
proud, delighted, cnraptured, and measure
Iessly contented 10 read to the convention.
This is world of losses, and Its last great
loss is that of Mr. Spriggs's dispatch.
There il nothing as to facts new in Mr..
Spriggs's explanation, but the language is
choice, and the sentiment honorable and tender.
me reason why blI SpIIREs HopCu thdI N'Vf'
Seymour would accept was little mysterious
il was because he chad known Gov Seymour
Z" for more than quarter of century" 1t is
true that the fact that Spriggs had known the
Governor for twenty-five years wouldn't seem
to have any direct bearing on the question of
his running for Governor of Ncw-York;
although 1t might account for his running to
some land where there are no Spriggses. But
now VIC rather think that ii will be Spriggs who
will run away, FOR he is in a dreadfully low
state of mind. 81 believed" says Sprggs,
"that Gov. Seymour loved the Democratic
"party, as he was beloved by it," 1t was
Spriggs's confidence in human nature, his con-
tidng trust in the depth of Gov. SeymOur's
faculties of gratitude and affection, it was the
soft spot which is somewhere in Spriggs which
deluded him. And this is about all Sprggs
says in pretty long letter, which there was
no need of his writing, because it tells us
nothing new, except indeed that Spriggs is
tender creature and sometimes makes invest
ments of love in very improbable quarters.

whom 40 much has been said, and who has
the reputation of being the best scientific orator
in England, while multtudes throughout the
country will look with eagenless to the pub
Iished reports of his discussion. The subject OF
evolution, which he is to take up, is now che
most prominent question in the sclentlhc
world, and il has an equal interest for all
classes of thinkers outside of scientific circles
Prof. Huxley Is one of the most eminent living
opponents of the doctrine, man who Knows
tbe snbiect AZ il now stands through aud
through and at first hand, and who Is besides
unite unrivaIed ia his capacity OF luminous
logical exposition. What he says, therefore,
will be marked not less by the weight oil
authority than by the attractiveness Ut It's
presentation. He will discuss 1.-The d.
erect Evidence of Evolution" deal"
ing with it, as we understand, IN
threefold aspect in the three lectures. 1t is
intimated that in the first lecture he will con-
slider the value and bearing OF the evidence
ftom Che persistence Of types which has been
urged by many as decisive against the truth
of the evolution theory. He viii therefore
grapple at the outset with the most formid-
able difficulties of the doctrine, and estimate
the Logical character of the standard objection.
In the second lecture he will consider the
weight of evidence derived from the discovery
of intermediate forms and connecting links IN
the organic series, and show how far these
discoveries are entitled TO be regarded as
proofs of the principle Of evolution. In the
third lecture he will take up the question OF
genealogical succession and the derivation OF
organic forms by descent ard modification
through the eras of geological time, and con-
slider the force Of this line of proof
in relation to the general problem. lt
is expected that there will be special
interest in this treatment of the subject
derived from the recent remarkable advances
of paleontology, not only abroad but cOnspicu-
ously in this country through the labors OF
Marsh, Cope, and others in exploring the fos-
sis of the West. There is profound regret in
many quarters that Prof. Huxley cannot be
detained here to speak in different places to
the crowds which would be glad to hear him,
but il is fortunate that he has been prevailed
upon to do the next best thing, and present
his views, if only for once, in shape that
will be interesting to the public and that can
be widely disseminated by the popular press

NEW..LERSEY CENTRAL.

We alluded last week to the alarming in-
crease of the Indebtedness Of the coal road COM
panies, treating their capital stock us one Of
its important elements. There is another view
which the public are entitled 10 have pre-
sented, the obligations ard Indebtedness Of
these companies independent of the capital
stock, and the peril in which that stock has
been placed by the policy and management Of
the past few years. The subject is OF profound
public interest, not merely OF mainly because
Of the number of investors in The stock, hut
because whatever tends 10 keen the price OF
coal above the legitimate cost Of production
and transportation robs every manufacturing
industry of the country, and is felt in the
pocket of every citizen. Nothing has done so
much to give confidence to the expectations Of
a revival in business as the downfall of the
coal monopoly and the lower price Of coal.
Nothing else could oct quicker in starting man
ulactories or stimulating staglant industries.
If the traffic in coal is still likely to be i'm
peded by any effort TO secure unnaturai profits
in order to pay morstrous Indebtedness, that
effort is against public policy and the public
interest, aud it is of the first Importance to
oil that the exact facts should be known.
We recently gave in some detail Tie situation
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad Let us glance now at the condition

case it is impossible to say what proportion OF
the Independent vote might have been won.
Refusing to adopt his policy, the party tired
to win at the East and at the West with two
irreconcilably hostile policies, and It's probable
failure will be mainly due to its own stupidity.
The Governor himself, however, is not free from
responsibility for The impending disaster lie
trusted to the fact that his party in this State
had 80 other interest than in his success. lie
took 1t for granted that the Democratic Bour-
bons would not wantonly throw away their
chances of success and therefore relaxed
little those efforts by which he has usually
manipulated Democratic conventions. He gave
his party little rope, and it Immediately tried
to hang itself Whether he can do anything
to save it at this late day, whether even now
the Obstinacy of its BOurbOnism will not resist
all his endeavors, the second edition OF Its
convention will show.

Cozzens's hotel and grounds are to be sold again on
Saturday next tho auction to be held on the prem
ises. Everybody remembers the delight with which
il was announced that Mrs. William II. Osborne bad
purchased this property at the former sale,
with the intention of converting it into q
hospital for convalescents. The benefcent pur-
pose was frustrated by defects in the
title, and it is now believed that the property
will sell at figure so much higher than il then
mauded as to leave little ground to hope that the
noble charity which was then intended can he still

PROE. HUXLEY as A LECTURER.
Americans have long been familiar with
Prof. Huxley "a "a writer. His address Mt Bal
timore gives us the first fair opportunity for
judging of him as pubhc speaker, since the
reports of his lectures in England were evil
IDENTIFY not taken. as is the one which We give
this morning, verbatim. lie is famous for
saying Just what he means, and though the
opening of the Johns Hopkins University dill
not call for any sharp criticism on his part, it
il noteworthy that he has rot CON
fined himself to commentator in dis
cussng its aims and methods. lie urges that
students, especially those intended for the
medical profession, should BE- fairly grounded
in the modern scicncoS-biOlogy aud Zoology,
chemistry, physics, and physiology. 1t wOuld
not be an agreeable picture to our national
sclf-estecm il the actual state of knowledge
of these sciences among our medical men--
except O comparatively brief list Of the highest
names in the professionalism be tabulated
Prof Huxley viii do America good service if
he shall awaken scnee of this deficiency. IL is
matter in which everybody has an interest
since sooner or later The physician becomes the
arbiter OF life or death TO all. And unfor
tunatcly the absence of scientific knowledge
gives more of a chance Of killing than its
presence does Of curing.
The Lectures TO he delivered in this city next
week by Prof. Huxley viii take strong hold

enough to hear him can hardly fail to be inter-
