following the line OF the railroad tracks. On
Southern track, and sat down TO rest on trestle
bridge where the road makes sudden curve,

her sightless husband from the track. She saved
his life, but lost her own, for she had scarcely
pushed hun from the rails before the pilot OF

tion of policy of justice can we disarm the
hostility of the Indian. The present is a
propitious moment for the change.
Unfortunately the politicians wish to un-
dertake the settlement of our difficulties
with the red man. We have two candi-
dates for the Presidency, both Of whom
declare themselves in favor of reform and
anxious to settle this Indian question. Both
have their panaceas, and We fear that the
ingredients in both are alike. So far as
Tilden or Hayes is concerned the Indian
question will 60 on as usual, and continue
to be settled until it has been finally put an
end to by the disappearance of the Indians.
But the politicians may console themselves
with the reflection that the Indian question
will not have much weight in the coming
election, the only danger to republican sue
cess arising from the German vote

The Weather.

Local weather observations for the month
of September give the following results,
which will prove interesting to the readers of
the HERALD:-The highest barometric press
ure was recorded on September 16 at 30. 322
inches, and the lowest on the Goth at 90. 655
inches, the mean for the month being 80. 992
inches. The highest temperature-S6 de-
grees-was experienced on September and
the lowest-45 degrees-on the 2Sth, the
mean temperature for September being
63.5 degrees. The velocity of the
wind attained its highest on the 18th,
when it was fifty miles per hour dur
ing the great Sunday storm, which was
caused by the northward movement of the
cyclone. On the same day the rainfall was
2.63 inches, and the atmospheric humidity
highest, being equal to 9O.7 per cent. Dur
ing the month the weather was fair
ten days, clear three days, cloudy seven
teen days, and rain fell on the I'd,
4th, 7th, Sth, 10th, 11th, 18th. 18th, Odd,
gath, 25th, Goth, 9th and 30th COM
parison Of mean temperatures for September
for the past six years shows as follows:-
1871, 6lS degrees; 1872, 65.S degrees; 1879
65.4 degrees; 1874 67.2 degrees; 1875, 63.S
degrees, and 1876, 63.5 degrees. A
similar comparison of rainfall shows
that for 1871, 213 inches; 1872
3.44 inches; 1878. 2.51 inches; 1874.
7.l6 inches; 1876, 2.51 inches, and 1876
5.24 inches. The prevailing wind during
the month was northeast. The foregoing
figures are taken from the official records of
the Signal Service, and demonstrate in the
comparisons given the variations of rainfall
which were so frequently discussed during
the recent scarcity of Croton water. The
early morning cold area in the Northwest is
steadily developing southwark and east
ward but the area of high pressure
has moved southwark into Texas, caus-
ing general fall of temperature
over tho Southern and Mississippi Valley
States, which will, it is to be hoped
efectually stop the ravages Of pho yellow
fever on the South Atlantic coast. Yester-
day morning the temperature at the follow
ing points was:-Norfolk. w., so degrees;
Montgomery, Ala, As degrees; Savannah,
Ga, so degrees; Shreveport, La, 43 degrees,
while during the day the temperature nt
these points rosc only to So, 55, GA and 65
degrees respectively, which must prove ex-
tremely beneficial from sanitary point Of
view. Rains prevailed during the day along
the lower lake region, Northern New York
and on the New England coast. Asn area Of
low barometer is now central north Of the
headwaters of the Mississippi River, and will
probably move eastward, without affecting
our vicinity, except SO far as to produce
cloudinoss. A high temperature and brisk
winds accompany the depression. The

SENATOR GORDON on THE South. South
Carolina is supposed to be the most doubt
full State in the South, and is claimed by both
parties. Senator Gordon, of Georgia, who
has been speaking through the State with
General Hampton. has favored the HERALD
with his views of the political situation, and
they will be found very shrewd and inter-
esting. The Senator says that thousands
Of the intelligent and educated negroes will
vote for Wade Hampton and for Tilden;
that the mismanagement of the government
will cause many who have been republicans
to oppose Chamberlain, and believes that
nothing can prevent democratic victory
but military interference. The army he
thinks has no wish to meddle with politics;
but the danger is that the troops under the
order Of United States marshals, who do
pend for their Offices upon the election of
HAYES. NAV be used for partisan purposes.

Beaconsfield's Bosh.

Members of agricultural associations in
England occasionally enjoy the rare privi-
lege of hearing from the lips of Prime Min
listers the secrets which are carefully pro-
tected from the curiosity of the common
people. Hence in order to know what is
going on among the rulers of Eu-
rope it is necessary in England to
become an enthusiastic admirer of short
horns and big turnips. The Royal Bucks
Agricultural Association has dined, the ora
Gle of the British government has spoken, and
the world now knows at last what has been
the tenor of English policy on the Eastern
question. A full account of the proceedings
will be found on another page Of to-day's
HERALD. After hitting Mr. Gladstone sharp
blow for his Bulgarian sympathies the Eng
lish Premier proceeds to tell what great things
his government has done for the cause of hui
manity in Turkey-how, while the bashi-
bazouks were numbering and outnging their
helpless victims. Lord Derby was negotiating
all the time, and, although the ipct of the
ruthless slaughter Of the peasants in
Bulgaria remains uncontrovertod, continues
negotiating yet The secret societies Of

what Does Mr.. Adams Mean.

In his letter to the democratic meeting at
Cooper Institute on Friday evening Mr..
Charles Francis Adams wrote:-''The great
effort of the republicans seems to be to
operate on the popular passions excited dur
ing the late civil war. Instead of repeating
the honorable call Of President Grant Let
us have peace = the cry is for raising what
may prove another war" 1t is decidedly
unpleasant to hear of .another war; from so
moderate and cautious statesman as Mr..
Adams. Yet it must be confessed that the
apprehension which he only hints has taken
hold of many other minds besides his. 1t is
disagreeable fact that the anti-reform re-
publican leaders have acted in this canvass
with an unscrupulous and reckless vehe-
mence which gives to many sober-mnded
republicans the fear that they mean to
retain power at all hazards. People do
not forget that the "Union-shrickers'
of 1860 and the years preceding very
largely turned out mutineers against
the Union when they were defeated at
the polls; and the democratic canvass of
1860 resembles in many of its worst features
the republican canvass of 1876. If the re-
publicans want to succeed in November they
will do we'll to drop the "bloody shirt, to
give up military interference in the South
ern States and to begin, without the least
delay, in talking of reform and trying to in
spiro the people with faith that the reform
wing of the party is going to control the
raxt odminist ration IL that should ha ra
publican. If the Northern people once get
it into their heads that the Mortons. Logans,
Sargents. Spencers, Kelloggs, Packards and
Chamberlains are to control the republican
party they will give SO sweeping majority
for the democrats as will leave the republi-
cans in hopeless minority for quarter of
a century.

Hunting = Star by Daylight.

When attention was directed to General
Newtons great work people were talking
rock; when Old Probabilities or one of his
boys foretells storm people talk clouds; but
when the sages that pass their lives between
the little ends Of telescopes and the table of
logarithms are nervous and agitated people
talk stars. Such are the shiftings Of wonder
land. The .fete days of science have taken
the place Of the feasts Of the saints Dy-
Mantle, not faith, moves mountains in this
modern world of ours Things are tested
weighed, measured and explored minutely
nowadays that were dreaded or wondered at or
passed by unnoted in the ages gone BY
story that they never told before. We
search beyond appearances into the deeper
nature of things until every day has its dis
covery. The Chaldean shepherds who
counted the stars would surely think the
world was mad if they saw the astronomers
of to-day looking for a planet by daylight
q mere planetule that ''never but in unap-
preached light, dwelt from eternity" 1t
may not be of SO much importance to New
York as the Assembly nominations in the
Fourth ward, but the name of Vulcan, the
old god of hammer and anvil, will be
heard on many IN unscentific lip for days
to come in Gotham. Meanwhile keen eyes
will watch from morning until night for o
small black spot expected to cross the
face of the sun. An old astronomer who
weighs worlds in his scientific scales
found one morning that some strange body
was pulling Uranus out of his course.
.sThere must be some sly old star at work, !"
said he, sbut if we watch for him close
we'll find him." So all the astronomers
lay like scientific policemen watching
for this loose character of the skies, and
one bright night they found him and
photographed him for the rogues album
of the heavens. 1t was Neptune. Then
Leverrier turned his telescope on Mercury.
He found that he, too, was q little unsteady
and straying from the right path, and imme-
diately suspected that there was a little rogue
leading him astray who lodged around the
chariot of the sun whenever this old heavenly
patrolman pointed his glass that way. One
day French physician who thought moro
of the Mercury of the sky than the mercury
in his physic jars, saw q small round spot
moving across the suns face. "Leverrier's
gan,in of the sky is caught at last" said
the scientists "It was only pill on
the old doctors glass-a myth and not the
smith, said the cynics. To-day or to-mor-
row or the day after the truth will be
tested. If found the calendar of science
will mark Vulcan day, for, star though he
be, he can never have Vulcan night.
There's the rub, or rather the rubber.

Tn. weed-stephen. Controversy.

We presume that Mr. Weeds letter which
we print to-day closes the controversy be-
tween him and Mr. Stephens, which has
been kept up in our columns for several
months These veterans were in the last
generation distinguished leaders of the same
political party, Mr.. Weed being the most
accomplished tactician of the old whig party
in the North and Mr.. Stephens ranking as
one of the ablest reasoners and orators of the
same party in the South. Their paths di-
verged when the slavery question became
the predominant ISSUE and the present con-
troversy between them relates to period
when both were still whigs. In 1850 q
difference arose between President Taylor,
the official head of the whig party, and
Henry Clay who had long been its most ad-
mired popular leader. BY what seemed an
odd alliance General Taylors policy was
supported by Mr.. Seward, Mr.. Weed natur-
ally siding with the New York statesman,
while Mr.. Stephens, with nearly oil the
Southern wings then in Congress, followed
the banner of Mr.. Clay. The death of
President Taylor prevented that conflict
from being pushed TO extremities and post
poned the civil war for ten years. The con-
troversy between Messrs. Weed and
Stephens relates to stormy scene at the
White House previous to General Taylors
death, in which he gave way to a torrent of
wrath, after an interview with two Southern
leaders, of whom Mr.. Stephens was one.
Mr. Weed having given in the HERALD a
detailed account of what took place on that
occasion Mr.. Stephens followed with an
emphatic denial that anything of the kind
had ever occurred. Mr.. Weeds recollections
have been corroborated by circumstantial
letter from ex-Vice President Hamlin, who
visited the White House on the same day and
hour when Mr.. Stephens and his companions
were with the President. Mr.. Stephens
replied, not with rebutting testimony,
but by an argument intended to show the
improbability of the President having used
such language as Mr.. Weed and Mr. Hamlin
attributed to him. Mr.. Weed now rejoins
by bringing new witness in support of his
first statement. This witness is General
Alfred Pleasonton, who served under Gen.
eral Taylor in the Mexican war, enjoyed
his confidence and friendship, and had o
conversation with him few days after the
alleged interview, in which the President
threatened to hang the Southern traitors.
General Pleasonton's testimony strengthens
that of Mr.. Weed and Mr.. Hamlin, and it
seems extremely unlikely that three gentle
men should be mistaken in their positive
recollections of the same event. 1t is a
curious chapter of unwritten history which
Mr.. Weed has supplied.
