THE WILSON EULoGIEs.
The most noteworthy of the eulogies was
that in which Mr.. Knott alluded to the cele-
brated visit of Mr.. Wilson at the death pea

one of the grandest spirits that ever illus

Crooked Whisky Investigation

New ORLEANS, Jan. 2l.-The special
agent OF the Treasury Department, who is
here working uD evidence against. and try-
ing to unearth those who disposed of crook
ed Western whisky, does not furnish the
result of his investigation to anyone; con-
sequently the reports as to what has been
done and who is implicated, are without
ioundation. Nothing definite or reliable
VIII be known of these matters until the
government officials complete their cases
and move against those whom they NAV
find implicated. The impression now pre-
walls that there was no whisky ring here
and If there were any "crookedites' they
operated each for himselt-no one else
knowing anything of their transactions

PARIS, Jan. 2l.-Gambetta, in complain
ing of being prevented from addressing tn
electors on the eve of the election, says tina
doubtless the public contemns the Govern
ment's policy, but certainly the Govern
ment's overthrow does not console me TO
the humiliation of thinking that such Off
cial Outrages are possible only in France.
The Morning herald., 1876-09-16

The organization Of any legislative
body, depends as much upon the efficiency
of its clerical force, as upon the general
intelligence Of those composing its mem
bership, in making up completeness.
Present Council should better its organiza-
ton BY substituting competency in the
clerkship for that which is now ccnfessedly,
even by Republican members, wholly in
competent. If the Republicans would
secure man for clerical duties such as the
last who officiated for them when they were
previously in power, it would more gen.
orally recommend them to honorable COM
ment. After having an officer Of such
capacity as Mr.. Lee, the election Of an
incompetent man by the Republicans and
his retention will reflect no credit upon
their general intelligence and standing al
men oflegislative ability.
The Morning herald., 1876-09-16

The INSTRUMENTS are tuned, the musl-
clans have been chosen, then let the fun
commence at once. The time between now
and that of the November election is very
short-the Republicans have set up their
pins, and now let the Democracy begin the
work of knocking them down. The efforts
Of the Republican party in this State in the
coming election are to be Herculean, COM
pared with its effort heretofore. You
would not see them printing their guns
with such material as they brought into
the Dover Convention without such was
the case. 1t is the base Of Republican ac-
tivity and the increased incentive of the
Democracy to look to its laurels. Let the
campaign be rafting one on both sides
there is nothing like life and activity te
test the strength and prowess Of party.

ZACH CHANDLER is after Carl Schurz
with sharp stick. Mr.. Schurz is hired
and paid for lying for the Republicans, and
not for telling truths. Mr.. Schurz he's in
formed some ofhis friends, "that the chan
ces Of the Republican success in Indiana
and Ohio are very doubtful" and old Jaco-
bin Chandler and all the other admin
istration plunderers are not going to sub
nit to any such talk as that.

HON. LUClUs ROBINSON.

The re-assembled Democratic State Con-
yention of New York did its work prompt
ly, smoothly and well in placing Mr..
Robinson on their ticket, and in restoring
Mr.. Seymour's name to its original place
at the head of the electoral ticket. From
the start Mr.. Robinson led all his COM
petitors, and few changes before the vote
was declared gave him clear majority,
and his nomination was then made unanl-
nous by acclamation. The nomination Of
Mr.. Robinson was victory for Governor
Tilden. He vas the choice of the Cover
nor, and is Democrat of the pronounced
Tilden type. To have nominated an anti
Tilden man would have seemed like re-
pudiating the reform issue and a flouting
of the pretentions of Mr.. Tilden as re-
form candidate. In the nomination of Mr..
Robinson, the convention did the best
thing it possibly could do under such cir

strongest that could have been made. He
is an able, upright, experienced man who
understands the workings and history Of
State Government as we'll as any man in
the State.
Mr.. Robinson has the confidence OF both
parties to a very great extent. He has
clear war record, lawyer of great exper-
ience and business man of good repute
1t is certainly clear that the Democrat, OF
New York have done all that could be ex.
pected of them to secure the liberal vote
and to revive the coalition that elected
Governor Tilden. The earnest manner ID
which all the Tilden managers and fol-
lowers rallied to Robinson at the outset
conclusively shows that he had been Sc
lected beforehand by the Governors friends
as their candidate. The result therefore is
to be reckoned Tilden victory.
