TRYING The EXPERIMENT ON STEAMERS
a SUCCESSFUL RESULT.
The recent invention of J. Z. Wooten,
Superintendent of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad, for using coal dirt as
fuel on locomotives, has been success
fully applied to a steamboat The Read
ing company's steamship 'PerkIomen,'
collier Of 1900 tons, was brought into
service and the appliance attached to
day morning of this week, the vessel
starting from the Port Richmond wharves
at 5.45. The vessel steamed down the
bay and rounded West Falls buoy south
Of Cape May, and then proceeded to-
wards shore and anchored off New Cas-
tie, Delaware, and remained there until
Wednesday morning. They got up
steam at 5.45 and got back to Port Rich
mond by half past nine o clock. The en-
tire distance ran, down and back, was
2l2 miles, and it required 10 hours and
81 minutes, running time, to do it, or at
the rate of about eleven miles per hour.
the time made by the coal dirt burning
was fully equal to the best average time
the vessel had ever made with the best
of anthracite coal. From Port Richmond
at 5.45 the ship arrived off Cape May at
4.15 in the Afternoon a distances OF LOG
miles; thence to New Castle GO miles, and
thence back to Richmond the next day,
distance 40 miles. At all events the trial
was in every way satisfactory, demon
strating clearly that coal dirt. which has
been heretofore considered useless and
valueless, and which is lying exposed ON
the surface in the coal regions by the
hundreds of thousands Of tons, can be
utilized in steamship furnaces the same
as in the fire-boxes Of he locomotives OF
stationary engine without any cost more
than the transportation, and trihing
change in the machinery and firebox or
furnace appliances. A number of scien-
pronounced this invention one Of the
best of the age. -tttha I.f

Much in LII tile.

The trustees Of the generous fund
which George Peabody bequeathed to aid
edu cation in the Southern States met at
the White Sulphur Springs last week to
hear the annual report OF DR.. Sears, the
General Agent, and to provide for the
operations of the present year. The re-
port shows hourishing condition of
public schools in nearly all the South,
with the exception of South Carolina,
Louisiana, and Florida. More than
million of children are attending those
which receive contributions from the
Peabody fund.
George Peabody Russell, who passed the
winter in the South. expressed the "opin-
ion that nothing could be expected from
the States Of South Carolina, Louisiana,
and Florida, in the way of advancing
their educational interests, until there
,cas O change in their State Governments"
In other words, the money voted for the
purpose of education, and for which
onerous taxes are laid in these States, is
stolen by the carpet-baggers who now
control them.
Virginia, West Virginia, Norlh Caroli-
ma. Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas,
Arkansas, and Tennessee, where the peo-
pie manage their own affairs, and have
been able, after long suffering, to get rid
of the scouIdrels who ate up their sub
stance and fomented strife between the
races. are all doing well in their way Of
education. OF course they are poor, and
struggling under the load of debt i'm
posed by the carpet-baggers; but the dis
position manifested in these States to
promote their educational system is
quite as good as in others where the
whites exclusively govern.
In short time the South willbe en-.
tirely rid of the vicious element which
| for the last eight or ten years has kept
up irritation and prevented recovery
! Once eliminated, the Southern States
| under good and economical Governments
will Immediately improve, the relations
between labor and capital will be put or
a satisfactory footing. and the merchants
and manufacturers OF the East and the
producers Of the West will regain twelve
millions of the best customers in the
world. They have been kept impover.
ished and driven away by the madness
of partizan legislation and the violence
of Republican leaders, in sustaining this
atrocious system and the agents Of it
who ought to be cracking stone in the
penitentiary.
In the few words uttered by Mr.. Pea
body's nephew, the solution OF the poll
tical problem in the three States b,
names, is clearly given. To change the
State Governments there is the only re
medy for existing evils. And this polio.
is equally sound and necessary when ap
piled to the Republican party and TO tn
Irrational Administration. Change is in
dispensatle, and any real reform is sim
ply impossible without it.

Special Dispatch to the New York Tribune.

Republican has obtained information,
from what is deemed an entirely trust
worthy source, that General Sherman,
through second parties, is negotirtinu
for an elegant property in Cote, a
brilliant and fashionable suburb of
this city, for a future residence; that
he will certainly retire from the army
after the 4th March, in the event of
the election of Hayes and Wheeler
and that General Grant will be appoint

This story is put to rest by denial

NEwBURG, Aug: 9.-Major Morton's
great stallion Wilkins Micawber, of the
Woodland ck::farm, New Windsor, in

of the lungs. Micawber was valued at
$50, 900. He took the first premium at
the State Fair last Fall for himself and
colts. Mr.. Morton was then offered
$35,OO0 for him. Micawber was sired by
old Hembletonian, dam Lady Brown, a
Star mare. He was bred by Chas. Back
man, of Stony Ford, in this county, and
when two years old was bought by Major
Morton for $1,000. He was fast but un-
trained. He has several fine colts

THE ALABAMA ELEcTION.

One of the ablest and most widely cir
culated papers in the United States Is
the Brooklyn Eagle. 1t is independent in
politics, and bold in condemnins wrong
and upholding the right. Upon the re-
cent election in Alabama, it says: ..-
Regarded, therefore, in its true light,
the Alabama election is of great signif..
misrule is apparently as strong in the
South as it is in the North, by all Signs
to be read. The Generalization which
has come over the Grant party in In
diana, the coming en- n,asse of the Ger
mans and Independents inithe Northwest
out of the Grant-Hayes party, the grave
concern that party expresses about
Maine, all united to this significant ex-
preston Of Alabama yesterday indicate
that the political tide everywhere seems
to be setting one way, while the events
in Washington daily indicate such mis-
doings as te show that the tide ought
everywhere to set in the one way referred
to. The significance of the civic reyolu-
tion of which Alabama is an expression
can be seen.
The first guns of the campaign give no
uncertain sound in favor OF change OF
parties. We advise our Grant and
Hayes friends 10 move their lists OF
doubtful States further North and fur
ther East and further West, and to have
the eyes they have had to remove in sor
row from Alabama, set fixedly on Maine,
New Hamsphire, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Michigan, Colorado and Minnesota. 1t
is most satisfactory to realize that the
Democrats have committed their appa-
rently absolute certainty of overwhel-
ming victory this year, throughout all
