an outrage to their reason. the spectacle Of a
man who recently struck out as champion OF

to know where lie the sources of power for

Conkling ; and the States which the Conk-
ling men concede to Blaine will follow o
similar rule; and practiced politician
may learn something by comparing other
parts of the lists We judge that both Conk-
ling and Blaine are holding their own very
well, b tn making some gains, but neither
at present having anything approaching
majority except in their too fertile i'm
asinations. Then there are Morton and
Bristow and Hayes and Hartranft
and Jewell, who will have some
votes until their friends withdraw
them. In a Convention SO scattered it is
doubtful if any of these candidates carry off
the prize against the field, and the mystical
and as yet mythical Great Unknown stands
as a formless spectre in tho dim dis
tance, but looming up in constantly
grander and more colossal proportions.
1t affrights even the strongest of
tho candidates. MS tho image in
that highly poetical vision caused the bones
of poor Job to shake:-"Then spirit passed
before my face ; the hair Of my flesh stood
up; it stood still, but I could not discern
the form thereof; an image was before mine
eyes" Equally underlined and terror-inspir-
ing is the image of the Great Unknown in
the vision of the trembling republican can
didates. When it assumes shape and outline
will it shave head on its shoulders? ?"
Let us hope so. Will the features be those
of Mr.. Adams? We dare not expect it.
Will it be Mr.. Washburne? That is more
than we can answer, but Mr.. Washburne
would be strong candidate, and we could
bid him cordial welcome. Let tho
country pray that the spectre may not
settle into the form Of Little Unknown !;
that its shoulders may be broad with
good head on them.

Topics Of tho Religious Press.

AS the day approaches for the opening Of
the Centennial Exposition the religious press
to some extent discuss measures and things
connected with the great show. They all,
without exception, express the great pleas
ure their editors feel at the decision Of the
Centennial Commission to close the grounds
and building Of the Exhibition on tho Sab
bath. But the Christian Intclii9enccr wants the
commission to 60 step further and undo
the action of the committee who have
licensed the sale Of beer and wine on the
grounds, and thereby redeem the Exposition
from the only remaining blot on its manage
ment. The Hebre'o Leader makes a sugges-
ton to Israelitcs which is worthy Of atten-
ton. 1t is TINT centennial record Of their
numbers, wealth, liberality, and so forth,
be prepared for preservation. The Leader in
sists that those who look upon the Hebrew
merely as wealth gatherer and money
hoarder havo false conception Of him.
That If he gathers wealth it is that no may
dispense it again. His home is filled with
all the comforts he can afford. His temple
Of worship is literally supported and his
charities amply endowed. He does his duty
rs a citizen. gives generously to other chari-
ties, never allows his poor to become tax
upon public and UNCONVENTIONAL charities,
is patriotic, moral and upright in his deal
inrs with his fellow men and to him as
we'll as to other citizens belongs the CEN
tcnnial glory of the nation. Besides the rest
Of one day in seven which the closing OF the
Centennial grounds and building will give
to those engaged thereabout the Baptist
WecIcfy thinks the honorable recoC-
milton which has thus been given
to tho law of God relating to the
Sabbath is far more important 1t will
prove that we have not in these hundred
years driitcd away from tho principles Of
our fathers. 1t will also show to the thou
sands who will visit Us from every nation
the features and benefits of the American
Sabbath as m institution formed in tho
moral sentiment OF the people and sustained
by their enlightened conscience, unaided
by any alliance OF Church and State The

pcated efforts to make and declare it SO have

didates recommended BY the Aldermen, and
the nominations were referred to COM
mittee, which was directed to wait on the
Mayor and inquire when he would send in
tho remaining names. The Mayors reply
was somewhat curt He had not prepared
any other communication to the Aldermanic
Board, and had followed the example Of his
predecessors in making the nominations
piecemcal. The Aldermen subsequently
confirmed the twelve fortunate appointecs,
but not without hcartburnings and muttered
threats. 44

Tho Tunnel Explosion.

The whole city was startled last night at
q quarter to eleven by a sudden, sharp
and loud explosion which seemed every
where to be near. It was preceded by an
illumination Of the sky, and it
was soon understood to have oc-
Cured in New Jersey. The excitement
was extreme, and thousands Of persons
rushed from their houses into the streets.
Rumors of the most extravagant kind added
to the alarm and curiosity. The latest
and fullest particulars are given else
where, and, terrible as is the reality,
it is fortunately far less shocking
than the stories circulated at first
In the giant powder building of the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad
Companys new tunnel in Jersey City an
immense quantity of dynamite was stored.
The cause Of the explosion is not certainly
known at present, but it would be cruel to
credit the rumor that it was the work of in
cendiarism caused by the quarrel between
some of the men who have struck on the
tunnel and the company. The loss of life
was not great, but the devastation to prop
erty is tremendous.
