A WONDERFUL CLoCK.-Another
marvellous piece of mechanism has recent
ly been exhibited in Paris. 1t is an
eight day clock, which chimes the quar-
tiers, plays sixteen tunes, playing three
tunes every twelve hours, or at any inter-
walls required The hands go round as
follows one once minute; one once an
hour; one once week one once'a month
aud one once a year. 1t shows the
moons age, the rising and setting of the
sun, the time of high and low water, half
ebb and half food, and there is curious
oontrivance to represent the water, which
rises and falls, lifting some ships at high
water tide as if they were in motion, and,
as it recedes leaving them dry on the
sands. The clock shows the hour of the
day, the day of the week, the day of the
month, the month of the year; and in
the day of the month provision is made
for the long and short months. 1t shows
the signs of the zodiac; it strikes or not,
and chimes or not as may be desired: 1t
has an equation table, showing the differ
ence between the clock and the sun for
every day in the year.

BACK PAY.-Some years ago certain
Detroiter settled debt by giving bis note
of hand. The holder tried for two years
10 collect it, and then filed it away. The
other day he had an opportunity to work
it off on an innocent party, and shortly
after so doing he encountered the maker
of the note and said:
"Now you'll have to come to time! I've
sold that note of yours"
"You don't say so?"
eyes, have; 70. it off on man for
seven dollars"
"See here, Torl," said the debtor in q
pleading voice, "if you got seven dollars
for that forty dollar note against me, and
you won't give me at least two dollars,
I'll never do another favor for you in my
life !"

A FARMERS SONG.

We envy not the princely man
In city or in town,
Who wonders whether pumpkin vine:
Run up the hill or down;
We care not for his marble halls,
Nor yet his heaps of gold
We would not own his sordid heart
For all his wealth thrice told.
We are the favored ones of earth,
We breathe pure air each morn;
We SOW, we reap the golden grain,
We gather in the corn:
We toll, we live on what we earn,
And more than this we do
We hear of starving millions around,
And gladly feed them too.
The lawyer lives on princely fees,
Yet drags weary life;
He never knows a peaceful hour
His atmosphere is strife.
Themerchant thumbs his yard-stick o 'er
Grows ragged at his toll;
He's not the man God meant him for
Why don't you till the soil :?
The doctor plods through storm and cold
Plods at his patients will;
When dead and gone he plodS again
To get his lengthy bill.
The printer (bless his noble soulD
He grasps the mighty earth
And stamps it on our daily sheet,
To cheer the farmers hearth.
We sing the honor of the plow,
And honor to the press
Two noble instruments Of toll,
With each power to bless;
The bone, the nerve of this fast age,
True wealth of human kind
One tills the ever generous earth,
The other tills the mind.

What nonsense Tom Jefferson pro-
mulgated when he wrote, Cali men are
created equal" He could not have be-
lieved it himself, and no two men ever
were half an hour together without each
one becoming fully convinced that the
other fellow was miserably below par
Fastidious young lady (who has just
had the entire dress goods department
displayed)-"1'll call again next week
and look through all your new spring
goods"

"A man in Frederick County, Vir.
ginia, dreamed that certain railroad
bridge would go down when he started to
visit his daughter attending school at
Woodstock. He remained at home, and
the fated train crossed the bridge in safe
ty. And it was also discovered that the
bridge was two and half miles the other
side of Woodstock.

"ORG1yIZED REVOLUTIONS"

Democracy u Interchangeable. That We know
from the gifted orators who cry, Democracy
is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever"
Incapable of progress, it is d milc-post, and
its function is to stick and rot in lis familiar
hole. With much propricty, therefore, when 1t
had hope Of success, it nominated Mr. llldcn,
as if to show what vast distance separates
the Union sentiment of this country from the
Democratic party. For it claimed to be the
Constitutional party, and organized rebellion
AGAINST the Constitution. Naturally 1t nomi-
mates the lawyer who, III his Kent letter, IN
sisted that the Constitution organized rebellion
against itself This preserves the eternal EtntSs
of things, and reminds OF the real nature Oh the
Interchangeable Democracy. In that letter Mr..
Tiden maintained that the trainers of the Con-
siitution cleft revolution organized when II
",hould be demanded by the public opinion
"of a State; left it with power to snap the
:" tie of confederation as nation might break
"a treaty, and to repel coercion as IA nation
"migbt repcl INVASION This was the very
essence of all theories of secession. Demo
Gratis who then risked their lives in rebellion
TO maintain it, reitcrate it by their nomination
now. According to this theory, several States
having tried to snap the tie, the centennial
anniversary of the Union is unconstitutional.
Surely, the author of the Kent letter ought to
be the Centennial President
Mr.. Tilden held that there was nothing in
the Constitution to prevent secession III 1861.
Certainly there has been nothing added since.
In all the amendments adopted since 1861
there is not a word to prohibit the secession

THK BTLGART1N APPEAL.

We trust that the sudden fear of new atroc-
tiles in Bulgaria is timely enough to prevent
its own realization. 1t was not to be expected
that the officials commissioned by the Turkish
Government to punish and redress would per-
form their duty. Any such attempt, in the
present temper of the Moslem population,
must be a mockery. 1t is perhaps natural
that new panic should have seized the
Christians of the province and that, after all
they have endured, they should anticipate the
worst They are not only still tortured by the
remcmbrances of the past, but also still keenly
suffering from privations of all kinds.
We have received from COnstantinople the
circular of Central Relief Committee which has
been formed there for the purpose of relieving,
to some extent, the immediate and increasing
distress of the haplcss BulgarianS. The Presi-
dent is Sir Henry Elliot, the British Embassa-
dor; First Vice-Presidcnt, the Hon. Horace
MAYNARD, American Minister; Treasurer. NJ.
Lebet,sthe Swiss banker and among the mem
beIs of the committee are Mr.. Eugene Schuy-
Ter, American COnsul-General MeSSrs. Bying-
ton and Greene American Missionaries, and
the Rev. DR.. Thomson, Agent of the British
Bible Society They state that thousands of
families have lost their bread winners, leaving
the aged and the Sick the women and chill
drcn, in state of utter restitution. While
the Summer weather lasts they wander about,
picking up miserable and insufficient sub
sstence and the coming Winter will simply
bring them death, unless some relief is speed
lily furnished. The composition and Organiza-
ton of the committee are such as to guarantee
the impartial and judicious application of the
funds received No misgivings on this point
should retard for day the response to such
an urgent appeal.
The Rev. Dr. Dwight also writes to us from
Constantinople that the Relief Committee have
already in the field three agents, two of whom
are American missionaries in Bulgaria, among

their policies. In the struggle to resist the
pressure, the companies would call In loans
with great urgency, and thousands OF mer-
chants would be forced into bankruptcy, and
thousands of manufacturers compelled to close
doors and discharge workmen. In this and
other ways collapse of the public credit would
bring ruin to all classes. Rich and poor would
go down together.
A Democratic vote is vote for general
bankruptcy. True, it is not certain that the
public credit would fa,l so much as % per
cent in event of Democratic success, but any
considerable fall would produce the same forced
and sudden calling in of loans, the same general
alarm, approximately the same ruin NO man
could tell, as no man can tell now, how low the
bonds might fall and therefore, as soon
as the fall became noticeable, men would
hurry to get at their deposits, and
the banks and companies would hasten
to call in loans, and the crash would come.
That considerable fall would speedily result
we may with reason infer, for the public credit
was far below par when the Democrats were
last in power; it has fallen every time their
success was expected, and has risen promptly
whenever that party was beaten in national
contest. Considering what any serious break
in the public credit would involve, Is 1t worth
while for us to take the risk of another panic

of the Union to prevent it, or diminishing the
power of State to "repel INVASION" If the
Constitution in 1861 cleft revolution organ
lied" as Mr.. Tilden declared, it still leaves
revolution organized. Whenever President
of that way of thinking can be elected, any
State can "snap the tie Of confederation" at
pleasure. All that is necessary to organize
revolution is to elect a President who Will
perceive that il is unconstitutional to dlsor-
ganize revolution. That Mr.. Tilden would
never be guilty of invading State, or dis-
turbing a cOnstitutionally organized revolt
ton, his declared opinions assure the solld
South. If States which tried to snap the Tie
when the debt was insignificant should please
to remain and to bear their share OF heavy
burdens for a season, how could we more fifty
express our gratitude than by granting large
appropriations for Southern wants Money Tor
Southern railways. canals, or levees, or pay
ment of Southern claims, may for time ap-
pcase "the public opinion of a State" But IL
would be dangerous matter to elect IreSi-
dent adverse to such expenditures. Then we
might see part of the States snap the ne
and leave a disrupted and bankrupt Union 10
take care of its own debt. How marvelously
the public credit might improve under PreSi-
dent of Mr.. Tildens convictions!
Has the time come to intrust Executive

tuition organizes revDluti0nl Is tins country
ready to be Mcxicanized 1! All its prosperity
dcpends upon the national credit Break that
and every financial institution i'll the co'ntry
must break. But the national credit depends
upon confidence in the stability and pcrna-
ncncc of the Union. Only an idiot would lena
n dollar to Il temporary confederation, whose
ties could bc snapped by any State at will.
We have a profound pity for the dizziness OF
those independents who cannot see why good
Governor NAV make bad President. TO some
mole-cycd persons THE TRIBUNE seems neon
sistcnt. because it holds that Mr.. Illden mas
been a coed State Governor but would not be
a safe President. We suppose that Mr.. Bu-
chanan might have governed PENNSYLVANIA
well. Bat this country cannot afford to nave
in the White House another believer IN organ
lied rcyoution.' At Albany a solid south
did not swarm about Mr.. Tildcn To c.Jolc
or threaten. 1t is not his theory that any
county may snap the tie which BINDS IL I"

consequences would soon be plain to the dull

States bond, he would soon find that It's value
depended on "publc opinion in each state

While the willingness of the lower order OF
New ork politician to stuff tho ballot-boX Is
doubtless as great IA ever, his opportunities
for this sort of political usefulness have Shnnk
sadly since the day when Mr.. Tweed put the
electoral vote of New-Yorl into Mr.. Seymour
pocket The system of precautions now in use
against fraudulent voting has assumed such
proportions and has in the last week been 50
cffcacious in disclosing the existence OF con-
spiracy to dcfraud the people that the account
given elsewhere Of its general plan will be
read with great interest. Mr.. Davenport has
devised an admirable system of checks upon
the unlawful desires of repeaters, and election
day is likely to enhance the general SENSE OF
its needed efficiency.
