TLDEN,s LETTER.

It is made matter Of serious political
significance that Gov. Tilden has not We.
submitted his letter of acceptance. The
constructions placsd upon this are numer-
ous. One most dwelt upon is, that Tilden
and Hendricks differ very materially on
questions that will be of vital importance
in the discussions of the campaign. and
upon which public opinion bases its pre-
ferences for the men who are to be the high.
est in the government. This would be
fair conclusion for Republican journals to
arrive at, since Mr.. Tilden has up to this
time not submitted his letter, but it is not
necessary that candidate for this cfice
shonld hasten to publish his letter OF &C
cepsance. There is plenty of time. He
is giving the matter that mature thought
which i: requires. He wishes to give the
country opinions that will be Of value, and
reforms that will presen, their importance
at once to the country. He is placed in
position that he will be locked 10 with
more serious attention than was Hayes.
He is to show the country how the Demo
cratic party will improve the National ad-
ninistra lion and his letter must ce in
great measure his Recommendation. Party
platforms are only party principles; q man
may be elected an / carry them out strictly
without meeting the terrible emergencies

gent circumstances Q: his POSITION, if be
has had the courage to do 50, he has no

We expect in letters OF acceptance views
and EXPIRE essions that will give thoughts of
the man tha. is offered. Tilden comes be-
fore the county with brilliant record, bu,
still without he talks to us By his letter, We
have left great deal unheafd that would

The construction placed upon his silence
by the Republican journals as we have
before stated, is a very fair one for them to
assume; but it has been. personally pub
lished by Gov. Hendricks tha, the differ
ence between himself and Gov. Tilden are |
upon very immaterial points. Aud while

Too Much for Him.

At 5 o'clock yesterday morning the
proprietor of small saloon on Beau
bien street put down the curtains, lock
ed the door, and was walking off when
he was hailed by a policeman. The
saloonist crossed the street to the officer
and said:
"Dot blaze is closed up for Won
week."
"What's the matter? asked the Of
fcer.
"Well, 1 CANT stand such foolings
aroundt. In de first blaze q man
comes in und says, well, Dilden is
elected und he kicks ofer the chairs.
Poorly soon comes anudder man in und
he says: 'Hooray Hayes has got
'em now = und he kicks ofer dable.
Anudder man in a leedle While comes
in and gals out Nopody is elected any
more !! und he preaks some glasses.
Shust like dot it has been for week,
and I am CLEAN discouraged. If some
pody says Dilden is elected, pellet
that; if somebody says Hayes is elected,
I pellet dot; if somepody says nopody
is elected, l feel like dis country vhas
going TO some dogs right away"
ayes, it does bother one !" consoled
the officer.
"Tell all de poys dot I have closed
up for returns, and that somepody CANT

his face homeward.-Detroit Free Press.

CENTENNIAL NOTES.

The Centennial Exhibition has formally
closed, but considerable portions Of the en-

manently located in the Main Building,
which will be retained for exhibition pur-

branches OF their business in Philadelphia,
and will become part Of its future growth

Chaos Come in California.
New York Times Editorial.

A political earthquake has happened
in California. A Chinaman has voted!
What is worse, he voted for President.
Worse than all, nobody knows what
ticket he voted. 1t happened If
one of the election precincts on
the Fourth Ward San Francisco.
Business was slack, and man
had not been killed within half an hour.
To the assembled custodians of the
sacred machine which executes the
freeman's will entered John Chinaman,
smiling and bland. He had a vote,
which he offered mildly but firmly.
Charles Cough, Inspector, was like
Bundle when Oliver asked for more
speeches with establishment and rage.
Recovering his scattered faculties, he
looked around for somebody to throw
a stone. There was no hoodlum in
sight. Perhaps free fight il Cat alley
engrossed the attention of the tribe.
Charles gasped, II challenge your
vote" John respectfully uncovered
his head, like one who knew what be.
lonsed to good manners, and answered
all inquiries. He held up his hand,
moreover, and swore like-a Caucasian,
let us say. The civilization OF the
proud Anglo Saxon went down before
the simple tale of that mild-eyed Mon
golian, and his folded ballot went into
the urn. The deed was done. A
Chinaman had voted. At last, one of
the countless hordes" had arrived.
Credible witnesses said that it was the
smallest horde seen in this or any other
country.

Feed and Catch tho Rabbits.
From the Germantown Telegraph.

ASAS6A"eAAs
The agricultural journals are again
full of modes for preventing rabbits
gnawing young fruit trees, suggesting
various remedies, among the best Of
which is to tandage up the tree some
two or three feet, or beyond the reach
of the hungry animal. For it must
be remembered that It is hunger, not
a choice of food, that enduces cotton
tail to feed upon the banks. But this
bandaging requires great deal of time
in large orchard, and can be avoided
by mere act of kindness to the starv-
ing rabbits, which is the providing for
them small quantity of food, and as
it may consist of the offal of any vege-
table substance, or poor hay scattered
in or about the orchard, there need be
no fear OF tree barking. This gnawing
takes place only when the ground is
covered with snow, and all other other
means Of saving them from starvation
are denied. Save for the rabbits, then,
the offal of cabbage, beets, celery, pars'
nips, carrots, partly rotten apples, or
potatoes, or any thing of the kind; deal
it out to them every few days when
snow is on the ground, and you will
save your trees; then set your traps
and secure fine fat rabbits for the stew.

Staxxers and Indigestion.

This disease is thus treated by the
agricultural editor Of the New York
Times:
It is known as "staggers or con-
gestion of the brain, resulting from in
digestion, and distention of the
stomach and bowels. It is often called
stomach staggers, and frequently oc-
ours when horses not subject to indi-
gestion are over fed with grain or green
food. The only proper treatment is to
relieve the bowels by purge of half an
ounce of powdered aloes in warm wa
ter, or pint of linseed oil, or an in
lection of warm soap and water with q
handful of salt. Afterward to feed the
horses very cautiously, giving only the
lghtest and best feed, namely, sound
timothy hay, cut, moistened, and mix
ed with oats and rye ground together;
half tablespoonful Of salt and a tea
spoonful of ginger should be given in
each feed. A drachm Of sulphate of
iron in each feed for week would be

Tar on Fruit Trees.

A correspondent Of the Agricultural
Department., writing from Montgomery
county, North Carolina, says: -" &C
cording to the experience of MIR. Henry
Reynolds of this county, tar is a perfect
remedy for scared and sun. cracked

with new tar the trunk of favorite
fruit-bearer that was cracked and so

would peel off, he has restored it fully.
He applies it to all the branches that
