when such prices rule? "How can

decent work if engaged Independently

knows how to get work out of hands.

POLITICAL.
The nomination of Hayes and Whee-
Ter at Cincinnati was received by the
Republicans of the city with the wild
est enthusiasm, and and the Demoera-
cy with the most intense disgust. Both
sides concede that the ticket is the
very strongest that could have been
made; and both sides-one openly and
the other privately-concede its elec-
ton. The World and the Express,
the principal Democratic papers of the
city, are frantically endeavoring to find
something against them, but in vain,
the Tribune, which has been Liberal
since the Greeley campaign, gives it
fair support; the Times is enthusiast
cally supporting it, and the Republi-
cans, without a dissenting voice. are
throwing up their hats for the coming
men. There never was a ticket nomi-
mated which so thoroughly united the
party, nor one that commanded a more
earnest support. The decent portion
of the Liberal Republicans have come
out squarely for it, and thousands of
the best Democrats of the city will
wheel into line. "Hayes, Wheeler and
a sound currency" will sweep the State
like a broom. Hayes and Wheeler
clubs are being organized in every
ward of the city, and there is every
prospect of a very lively campaign.
VANDERBILT.
Stewart, the king of merchants,
went few months ago, and now Van
derbilt, the railroad king, is in his last
moments. The old man has been very
i'll for some time, and it is impossible
that he should live much longer. But
his death will make no difference with
his vast interests. He has a son, Will
liam Vanderbilt, who is Just as grasp
ing, and a deal more able than his
father, whom the old gentleman has
been training for years to take his
place when he should vacate it. VIII
liam Vanderbilt knows al! about the
old mans business; in fact, he has
done the most of it for ten years. He
is the Viee-President of all the compa-
nies of which his father is President,
and is really executive head of all his
enterprises. He is a very strong bust
ness man, and has had the best of op-
portuniries. You may expect to hear
of the old mans death any day. And
by the way, Wall Street is speculating
on the event just the same as it speeu-
lates on everything. A regular Wall
Street broker would turn the death of
his mother to account. Every hour of
the day bulletins, real and false, are
received as to his condition, and stocks
go up or down, as the reports are ia
vorable or bad. PROSTATE and help
less, he still wields powerful influ-
ence. PIETRO.
