They call him Samuel J. Tilden,
the reformer." His chief hacker at St.
Louis, with mouth and money, was
John Morrisscy, the bru;ser and gam
bier, and one of the chief elements of
his strength in the convention that
nominated him was, finally, "Boss''
John Kelly, Tweed's successor as the
head of the New York Tammany ring,
who went to ST. T.onss as his opponent,
and was bought up BY the Tildenites
by the promise that he and Tammany
shall have the Government offices of
New York in the event of Tilden's
election. These are pretty lot of ere
formers and they know their man.
The questions is, Would these fellows
be Tilden's supporters if they did not
know that his pretensions as "refoim-
er" are merely the trick of a detna-
gocue?

The ordinary steel rail is thirty feet
in length, but the Bessemer Works, at
Braddock's Fields, Penn, are running
them ont sixty feet long. They are the
FIRST steel rails of this length ever cast
in any pale of the world. They are
said to cost no more by weight than
those OF the ordinary length, and there
viii be a saving in the cost of laying
them as well as in the reduced wear and
tear Of rolling stock, since large part
of this is caused by the shock which
each wheel receives in passing from one
rail to another, and on track laid with
sixty foot rails there will be only halt
as many jolts as on one with rails OF
thirty feet in length.

Now let old Satan throw up the
sponge and sell out In the matter of
shrewd hypocrisy under the cloak of
pious pretense, the Democratic party
throws him utterly in the shade. Tide
the ''reform'' resolutions OF the St.
Louis convention. They are a very
amusing subject of political and ethical
study to those who are familiar with
Democratic history and mortality and
with the character of the Democratic
leaders and followers. "Retormers,"

famous party ever made a record enti-
Ting it to such claim The platform
it adopted last week is an impudent and

pirates to fly the flag of honest mariners

One of the prominent Democratic
journals of Brooklyn, the Argus, New
York; Brick Pomeroy's Weekly, Chica-
go; and the EcansCilge Courier, Indi-
ana, have already declared war against
Tllden, and pronounced him not a fit
man to be President of the United
States. In the reasons given by these
journals for refusing to support Mr..
Tilden, it is claimed the commissioners
for building the capitol at Albany, who
had stolen millions from the State, and
of whom Governor Tilden had said the
evidence was strong enough to convict
and send them to state prison, were
among the delegates urging Tilden's
nomination at st. Louis. The Gov
ernor had promised to commence legal
proceedings against them but he had
not done it, and, 1t is predicted that he
will not Othe millions have been
solen by members of the Brooklyn
ring, whom the Argus says the gov
ernor we'll knew were partners of Tweed
in the legislature, in the Brooklyn pave
ment contract, in the East river bridge
and elsewhere. The governor promised
to prosecute them but neglected to do
SO. In defiance Of his neglect portion
of these men were indicted and these
indicted men were among Tilden's sup
porters at St. Louis. The 1rguS avows
that Governor Tilden has made league
offensive and defensive with the thieves
and the ring elements of New York
and that he has adopted the motto that
no guilty man must be punished who
will vote right. For this reason that
Journal is of the opinion that next
November New York will leave Tilden
in minority of at least $4,000. Adver-
tising puffs of Tilden were by his order
inserted in $50 southern and western
democratic newspapers. Ii is also
claimed that liz I966-61 Tilden was
interested in distillery, at Lebanon
Springs, New York, which was run for
months without paying any tax to the
government when the amount really
due was from s700 to $500 per day.
The distil!er was finally seized by the
officers of the government. 1t is urged
further that sufficient number of votes
were purchased at ST. Louis to deter
mine the nomination and they declare
such a nominee unworthy of support.
These are son,e of the reasons which
Democratic organs are giving for refus-
ing to support Tilden, and they insis:
that he cannot be elected.

Servia and Montenegro, both of
which are unwilling dependencies OF
Turkey, have formally declared war
against Turkey, and the servian troops
have crossed the border into Turkey.
The other prineipalities will no doubt
make common cause with them, and
Russia will, in honor, be compelled to
support them-in which event it is only
a question OF time when Austria will
join Russia, and Germany, England and
France will throw themselves in the
breach in Turkeys behalf. Then the
long-pedicted general European war on
the eastern question" will begin in
earnest.

In 1866 the product was ,342 tons; in
