The Jefferson Club.

PUBLIC NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. BY JOHN
o'BYRNE, ESQ, AND JOHN j. KIRK, OF
BALTIMORE.
The Jefferson Democratic club held
large public meeting, last night, their
hall on East Third street being filed to
its utmost capacity. DIR. H. o. Ogle,
President of the club, presided, and j. G.
Farra, acted as Secretary.
John O'Byrne, Esq, Brandywine HID,
was the first speaker, and held forth for
nearly an hour in his usual forcible and
eloquent manner. He was loudly ap-
plauded all through his remarks. The
next speaker was John X. Kirk, of Balti-
more, Md, discussed the issues of the
campaign, and dwelt upon the excellent
chances for grand democratic victory.
Mr.. Kirk came from Baltimore with the
laurels of victory fresh upon his brow, as
yesterday he was elected to the City
Council by a majority of 800 in. a Ward
which last year gave an opposition ma
jority of 1900
At the conclusion of Mr.. Kinks speech
the meeting adjourned.
On account of this meeting, which had
been announced two weeks previously,
the Democratic meeting called for Fourth
and King streets was not held. 1t will
be held on Friday evening, and will be
addressed by Hon. b. 7. Biggs, 1. CO
Grub, ESQ, and others.

Civil Service Reform.

City Council Water Committee, last
night, on motion of John G. Baker, pro-
ceeded to elect James Crosby engineer at
the City Mill water works, vice Author
G. Maxwell, removed. Mr.. Maxwell has
occupied this position for several years,
under Republican, Independent and
Democratic administrations and no fault
has ever been found with his performance
of the duties of the position. The remov
al was forced, however, by the pressure OF
a number of local politicians, notably
the "Christy Senate" of the second ward.
This action illustrates the attitude Of the
Republican party in regard to the "Civil
Service Reform" for which they pretend
to have so much admiration.

AN OUTRAGE STORY SPoILED.-The
Commercial and Republican, yesterday
published accounts of an "outrage," in
which Constable knocked down a man
named John Scott, breaking his wrist in
two places, without any provocation what
ever. The truth of the matter was that
Scott insulted Constable Woodward's
wife, and Mr.. Woodward demonstrated
by giving Scott push which caused him
to fall into the gutter. Scott insisted
that his wrist was broken in two places,
but DIR. West who attended him, said
that it wat not even sprained. So the
above two Immaculate journals became
the defender of a ruffian who found favor
in their eyes because he had the temerity
to insult the wife of Democratic official.

POLITICAL MENTION.
SOUTH BERGEN, JERSEY CITY N. j.
Oct 9th 1876.
Correspondence OF Gazette.
l have made some inquiry concerning
the Central II. r. or N. j. strike, and the
main reasons for it. About three mouths
ago the engineers were put under q re-
duction of ten per cent in wages. They
did not submit, and it was passed over by
the company for the time. Now the en-
gineers are protected by the Union and
will not consent to reductions of any con-
sequence. At their last pay the amount
paid them was considerably short, (some
$20)and they quit, and were ordered by the
Union to stay away from the tracks, that
in case of new men, and accidents, they
would not be blamed, nor in any way con-
nected with it. There Is report that
they have settled all differences, and will
go to work, but it is not yet verified. 1
am told that the charter breaks at mid
night if they do not 60 before that time.
The master mechanics rama train or two
to Newark, and one received a severe
beating ON his return, 1 was told. The
horse-cars between this city and the places
in the vicinity, were loaded with possibly
fifty or sixty in a single Car at times. The
r. r. Co., usually carry them through to
New York. The fare is now only thirteen
dollars for through tickets to Centennial
from extreme points of Canada, of which
the Central r. r. only gets Is cents, and
Bound Brook the same or less, and the
j. r.. r. gets the same for five miles in
Philadelphia. The through excursion
tickets instead of being harvest, do not
even pay the G. r. r. expenses it is said,
although it does to the p. r. r. who takes
the lions share in every instance. There
is to be a large paIade of the Democrats
here tonight, and they will be here soon
The large one in New York is tomorrow
night. 1t is to be one with fifty thousand
men in line. Forty five Thousand men as
represented by clubs, are already entered,
and still they come. There is a Hayes &
Wheeler club of the "men and brothers
here numbering twenty or twenty-five,
turned out to give color to the speech OF
Gov. VIM. Bross, last Friday night. A

lican would carry the State by ten thous-
