PTTTsBURG Post: Among the
congratulatory kilograms and let
tiers received by Governor Tilden
upon his nomination for the Presi-
dency, was one from a clergyman
in Warrington who says that he
has Travelled 10000 miles in two
years and has felt the public pulse,
which beats strongly for reform;
and another from a superintendent
of a Sunday-school in Cincinnati
asking for a sentiment from the
Governor which may be
read to his Sunday-school, while a
third from a Jewish Rabbi re-
calls with thanks a contribu-
which the Governor had
made to Mount Sinai Hospital
some years ago. FOrty-tour pupils
of a business college in Poughkeep-
sic sent their congratulations in a
telegram, aud say they will work
for his election. Similar expressions
Of confidence and cOngratulation
have poured in on him from every
State in the Union, some of them
from prominent Republicans, who,
that reform inside of their
own party lines being impossible,
they will avail themselves of the
only chance that is offered, by sup
porting the good work of the st.
convention. The universal
satisfaction with which his nomi-
nation is received bespeaks the
lawn of a better day for the coup.-
Try.

THE white Radicals of Memphis.
at least some of them, seem to
think that their affiliations with
the Republican party entitle them
to social recognition. Some of
them are worthy gentlemen; these
are treated according to theirmerits.
Others to get into decent society
would require a supplemental civil
rights bill and the aid of the whole
army and navy. But it is a note
worthy fact that the troops sent
South rarely affiliate with the
Southern Republicans, white or
black. They are commanded by
g~entlemanly officers who quickly
recognize the true state Of affairs.

SAN DOMINGO.
An Insult offered the American
Flag

An Insult offered n American
Flag
New YORK, July 8.-The purser of the
steamship Tybee from San Domingo has
forwarded to the Secretary of State from
the American consul at that port details
of an insult to the American flag, 1t
seems that the Tybee, on its way from
this port to San Domingo, took on board
as a passenger at Cape Haytien General
Pablo Villaneura, ex-Minister Of War
and a marine under President Gonzales,
Of San Domingo. Arriving at San Do
mingo, Villaneura sent TO the authorities
asking permission to land, but was re-
fused and warned if he did so he might
expect to be arrested. Immediately af.
terward Captain Kuhl, of the Tybee, was
ordered to put the General on shore, the
government averring that he had been
endeavoring on the Haytien frontier to
ferment q revolution against tie exist
ing republic. The captain refused and
submitted the Ease to Paul Jones, the
American consul, who decided that the
General was an ordinary paying passen-
ger, and that as he had not been on shore
he was entitled to remain on board and
was under the protection Of the Ameri.
can flag.
On the 25th Of June, as the Tybee was
ready to sail, an order was received from
the Minister Of the Interior commanding
her to remain. The American Consul
made reply that he had on board q
special bearer Of dispatches to his gov.
eminent; that the ship was properly
cleared, and that she would sail unless
detained by force. This message was
UNDECIDED. Seeing an attempt was to be
made to take his passenger, Captain
Kubl tied American flags to the stanch.
ions on both sides Of the gangways and
all intruders were warned away. In
little time a field piece was brought OF
the wharf. and fifty soldiers, armed witt
rifles, tore away the flags, went on board
and, despite the emphatic protest of tb'
American Consul, General Yillaneura
lame and disabled, was taken from hi
state aud carried on shore, anC
then the vessel was permitted to sail.

WASHINGTON special /: The nom
ination Of Mr.. Packard as Republi.
can candidate for Governor in Lou
isiana was at first thought to be in
accordance with a private arrange
ment talked of some time ago. bv
which, if he was nominated, he
was to resign in favor of another
candidate, General Williamson or
General Bussey, either Of whom
would be acceptable to the best citi-
zens Of New 0rle9. ms and of the
State, regardless Of party. This
plan, if carried out, would have
compelled the Democrats to nomi-
nate also one of the best men, and
the result would have been to lift
the cany ass and the State politics
out OF the mlre. Unfortunately
TINS Pan is not to be carried into
erect, as the Convention adopted a
resolution declaring that if any
candidate abandonB the contest the
nomination Of another shall b.
made only by a new State conven-
ton, and not by the committee,
The effect and de,ign of this is to
retain Mr.. Packard, but as he rep.
resents the most extreme element
Of the Republican party in thu
State his nomination will, it is her
feared, lead to a simH ar nomination
by the Democrats of some ex
tremest like Wilt or lucEnery, an.
thus the old turmoil will begi
over again. Packard is Unite
States Marshal. As such he ha
the command Of tro Opt, and as h
has hitherto used tn ese during tn
canvass, it may be e expected that h
will try to use them this fall q zah

1t is that SO few whites in the

SOME of the orators at the Radi-
cal meeting last night seemed to APP
prehend social ostracism. There is
no danger that many Of them will
damage their standing in society.
Barbour Lewis has tried it for
years and never suffered in the
least. He has never been ostracized
out of good society, and never will
be. It cannot be done, even if the
Democrats had possession of the
army and navy.

BROTHER VIM. NJ. SMITH did not
attempt to deceive the brethren
with an assertion that he wanted
no Office, knowing that they would
recall his late effort to get into the
Legislature. He says that if ostra-
cism goes on they THE Republicans
have the army and navy to meet
that force. Just SO. We heard Of
Republicans getting into frst-class
society temporarily by the aid Of a
file Of soldiers. Such occurrences
during the war were more frequent
than of late years.

Eurone,s Eirhnrg Wen.

From st. Petersburg to Lisbon,
Europe is quaking with the tread of
armed men, gladiators hired by the
million to Stay and waste at the
beck of their royal masters. Ac-
cording to the latest statistics, the
leading powers of the continent can
take the field with the forces cred
tied to them in the subjoined table:
France ....... Isl 95S9P '7SY Russia "-~ ,2 5tS' 81
Germany. .......1 1878, 346 Turkey.........~ 10000

In an emergency almost every ma
ton here mentioned could more
than double its strength by calling
out militia reserves of various
kinds. In such a condition Of af-
fairs it is no wonder that we have
constant rumors of war, for, with
such immense standing armies,
there can be no permanent peace.
When so many men are drawn
away from productive employments,
and kept to fatten on the labor of
their oppressed brethren, only a
small spark is needed to start the
confagration. Such material was
never yet allowed to rust long in in
action; hence, somebody is sure of
getting soundly thrashed before the
Turkish difficulty is settled.

A Snake Destroys Four Horses

A farmer living near Edora, in Iowa,
had three valuable farm horses recently
destroyed by monster snake. When
discovered they were literally crushed
into a jelly. The farmers name is
given as Gabriel Stout, and neighpor
Of his, S, Carlin, lost fine two-y ear.old
colt that was killed by the same snake.
The whole nelgnborhood have turned
out in search OF the monster, but all
that they have been able to discover so
far is a portion OF his snakeship's last
years skin, eleven feet in length, which
is supposed to be only about third OF
it's entire length.
Another farmer writes from the neigh
borhood of the monsters whereabouts
that two calves and several head OF
young stock are mysteriously missing,
and the opinion is general that they
have been killed and eaten by the big
snake. There appears to be some truth
in the story. The eleven feet portion
OF the skin of last year that was found
during hunt for the reptile is now on
exhibition at the Courthouse at Eldora,
and Il. Ii. Mcbride has organized a body
of men to prosecute the hunt until the
monster is taken.
