Friendly Advice to Mr.. Morton.

The other day we advised Mr.. BLAINE TO
show n high specimen of magnanimity by
leading his followers into the camp OF
Senator CoNKLINo, and making him the
candidate of the party. This was before
BLAINEs private and confidential transac-
ton in selling an interest in the Northern
Pacific Railroad for $1,000 had been ex-
posed. 1t was good advice then, and it Is
still better advice now. We renew to the
gentleman from Augusta the suggestion
that when you can't be the king, 1t is not
a bad idea to be the king maker.
The same wise counsel we now tender to
Senator MORTON, the distinguished states
man from Indiana. His chance of being
nominated and elected President in the
year OF grace 1876 Is not very fiattering;
but he can do n great thing for himself
and delight his party by making an alliance
with Senator CoNKLING, ard putting the
nomination OF that gentleman by the Con-
vention at Cincinnati beyond any shadow
of doubt or uncertainty.
Mr. MORTON should take warning by the
dissensions In tho Democratic party.
Those dissensions threaten TO perform for
that party in the approaching election the
same service which the folly of its mana
gers has for a long time past periodically
performed every four years. Would it not
be well for Mr.. MORTON to take care that
such dissensions shall no longer add to the
danger of the Republican partyf Let him
also make friends with Senator CoNKLINo,
and render his nomination certain. There
is nothing else III this world so beautiful MS
cordial affection and brotherly harmony
among politicians of the same stripe.

The Firm Of Robson & Wizard.

SEcoR RoBEsoN makes long reply to
Mr.. WHIrTHoRsEs request for informa-
ton concerning NORMAN WARDS Tidicu-
lous experiments with heavy ordnance.
II naturally takes great deal OF room for
him 10 plead his bad cause.
robson speaks of WARDS plan for
rifilng our heavy smooth bores as impor-
tant aud valuable, whereas, every one
familiar with ordnance knows that there
was nothing essentially novel in its idea or
principle. AS distinguished authority on
the subject said, there was nothing good
about 1t that was new, and what was new
was bad. European experiments in the
same direction made utterly unnecessary
any trials Of the contrivance of the char
latan WIZARD, who was notorious at the
time SEcoa robson gave him large sums
of money to carry them on, as mechani-
cal shyster. His experiments at Nut Island
with this money were ludicrous failures,
as his previous performances had been
from the day his car-wheel gun burst into
n thousand fragments in New Jersey. to
that OF his appearance at the Navy De-
partment demanding a chance to spoil
more guns. Yet, at the time this man was
besieging him for the peoples money, Sc
COR robson cruised around with him in
his yacht and assisted him in drinking his
wine and smoking his cigars.
WIZARD, so far from Offering to rife the
guns Al cheap rate, as Robson alleges,
charged much more for his wretched con-
trivance than a good system OF altering the
guns would have cost. If the project Of
the pair had succeeded WIZARD would have
got vast sums out of the Treasury But
his failure was too marked, and public at
tcntion was too soon called TO it, to enable
the partners to carry through their job.
Everybody who knew anything Of ord
nance and saw the Nut Island experiments
laughed at them; and robson could not
breast the rdicule. We venture to say
that there is not an ordnance officer of the
army or navy, from the chief down, COM
potent To speak on the subject, who did
not privately JOIN in regarding the preten-
sions OF WIZARD rs absurd, though fear Of
RoBEsoN may have made them cautious in
then Official statements. IT i well known
that Commodore JEFFERs, CHIEF of the
Navy Bureau of Ordnance, and one of the
very ablcst ordnance experts in the SER
vice, looked on WARDS plan for rlfiing

RoBEsON concludes his long special plea
by saying in effect that even if officers

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SUN-Str: /
notice In your issue of the 2dth communica-
ton entitled. young Ladies in He'll" in which
1t is stated that clergyman named George Hall,
State Secretary OF the New York State Organza-
ton Of the Y. NJ. c. A, had made the assertion
in the course Of his remarks at a Union meet
ing, THAT the purest young lady In Mount
Kisco who had hitherto led consistent. moral,
and upright life, would, unless she accepted aud
believed upon Jesus, be damned equally with
the vest murderer In his cell, awaiting execu-
tion," and inquiring whether that Is the doctrine
and ex-cathedra teaching Of the ". NJ. c. A.
In your comments gu the communication, you
aege that the assertion OF the clergyman In
question Is in perfect accord with the establish
ed doctrine of the denomination Of evangelical
Professionalism to which he belongs, and that the
orthodox Protestant sects all hold that damna-
ton Is the penalty OF uubelef ana that unbe-
Levers are damned without respect ~ their
relative grades Of morality.
In tins res ,ect beg leave to differ with you.
W hat the reverend gentleman alleges relative To
the point at issue, Is in my estimation, mere
moonshne.' lie has no grounds wherein 20
Oase his ridiculous assertion no scrptural
proof; and, to my mind, he would utterly fal u
convince most Intelligent Christian members OF
assertion. According to his view, a Jew Cannot
60 to heaven, the Jews do not accept Jesus;
also the heather must stay out ~ heaven.
What the Rev; Mr.. Hall really means is, that
all VINO do not become professors OF religion,
or do not come within the pale Of the Church,

will Mr.. Bristow Please Explain ,

Mr. BRIsTow owes IL to himself and to
his friends to make some answer TO the
recent letter of Messrs. c. w. DURANr &
Son, charging him with injustice and
favoritism in relation to certain draw
backs on refined sugar. That letter has
been before the public for more than q
week. The facts alleged contained in it
were among the grounds of the blackball-
ing of MIR. BRIsTow at the Union League
Club some days earlier; but as yet he has
suffered the matter to pass without notice
The charge is made explicitly that
during the month of November last Mr.
BRIsTow allowed one firm Of sugar re-
nners in New York and several other such
firms in Boston drawback of three aud
three-quarter cents per pound on exporta-
tons Of refined sugar, whereas he refused
TO allow 10 the Messrs. DURANT more than
three cents per pound on expectations Of
precisely the same article. The result has
been loss to them of the difference Of
three-qunrters Of n cent per pound, which
they must either suffer or only recover by
tedious ana expensive litigation.
Mr.. BRsTow enjoys the reputation of
being an honest man in money matters
aud this has been great recon-
mendation OF him TO the public as a
candidate for President; but the Chief
Magistrate OF the nation must be some
thing more than simply not a thief. lie
must be sufficiently able and impartial
to do justice 10 all classes of citizens with
out fear or favor. If the story Of the
DURANTs is true, Mr. BRIsTow is lacking
in this respect. He is either incapable of
seeing what his duty is, or else he is too
wilful and arbitrary 10 fulfil it. Let us
by all means hear what he has to say on
the subject.

Better Times.

The stagnation i'll every branch OF indus
try and in every department of trade
which closely followed the panic of 1873
resulted in n gradual and general decline
OF values, and the consequent bankruptcy
OF three-quarters Of those who were doing
business on borrowed capital, and carrying
large lines of goods only partially paid for.
1t must not be thought, as has some
times been assumed, that during this
period the business of the country really
stood still. While system of rigid and
enforced economy has prevailed in almost
every household throughout the land, the
necessary wants OF forty-fve millions Of
people had to be provided for. These peo-
pie have been fed. clothed, housed, and
warmed, perhaps not so lavishly as in
.olnor days, but still sufficiently so TO
Acep the wheels OF trade in movement
dullng all this period Of depression.
Immediately after the panic trade came
20 n dead halt. Presently il began TO re-
vivc, although with falling values. Those
who had stocks OF goods on hand transact
cd business at n constantly incr easing loss.
There was general di-tru-t Of the future.
and the spirit of speculation was entirely
crushed out There was no liked standald
of prices by which the merchant, the
trader, the manufacturer, or the real estate
owner could form Il correct estimate Of his
exact financial condition. Capitalists with
monty 90 invest hcsitated about making
any purchase however low the price. Ia
IRENE caution las been the order Of the
dav.
Meantime, with declining values, the
volume OF business has actually increased,
a. Is abundantly shown by the general
records OF the transportation lines; and
though this statement may seem paradox

winch roughly estimated, show colnpara.

IDLE In his explanation OF that little transaction

II is to be hoped that the death Of the
juror In the case Of the murderers OF Policeman
YosT, who was brutaly killed In Tamaqua, Pa,
In July last, simply because he was an officer of
the law, will not prevent vigorous prosecution
OF the Molly Maguires who are now In custody,
or tead to any cessation OF the warfare now
wagipg against the members OF that murderous
organization who are still at large. The account
Of the operations Of this organized body of as
sassins, given in our Pottsville correspondence
printed yesterday, is II remarkable story of ter
rbe crimes, extending through period Of
twenty years. and surpasses the most frghtful
narratives Of brigandage In Italy. Indeed, the
horrible atrocities OF the THUGS OF India seem to
have been exceeded by the acts Of these organ
lied bands In PENNSYLVANIA, who are still defiant
and still engaged In their murderous conspira-
cies, notwithstand ny that the necks OF thirty
nine Of their number are ia imminent danger Of
the halter. That such II condition u affairs has
been permitted to exist so long Is a deep dis
grace to the State OF Pennsylvania and especial
ly 10 the present Executive Of that State, Gov
HARTRASFT, who has signally failed In his duty
toward the peaceable and law-abiding citizens
OF the extensive regions which are Infested by
the assassins. The fact that the energetic pro-
ceedings recently taken against the Molly Ma
CURES were Instituted and mainly prosecuted by
railroad and coal corporations, instead Of the
regular authorities, IS a significant one, and
gives an appearance OF probability to the accusa-
ton which has been made against Gov. HART
RANT, that he has overlooked these outrages in
consideration Of the political influence Of the
murderers being exerted for his benefit and for
that Of the party which he represents. II is said
that prominent Molly Maguires have boosted
that Gov HARTRASFT Is their best friend, and
It certainly seems as though the Governor had
carefully avoided placing himself in an attitude
Of active antagopsm 70 them.

nance had suggested 10 him the wisdom of.
leaving WIZARD alone. he should still
have acted on his own Judgment.
But what is this New Jersey job
ber's judgment Of the best plans of rifiing
heavy ordnance worth? A man competent
to be Secretary Of the Navy and honest
ly desiring only to do what was for the
best interests Of the country, himself UNI
instructed in the special science, would
have referred such an application as
WARDS, especially In view of the fellows
evil reputation, to the bureau of his de-
partmept competent to determine its
value. He had at hand Commo-
dore JEFFERs an officer Of age and
experience, candid and expert, who
could have detected the fraud and
exposed It, II he had given him fair
chance to freely render an opinion. But
robson wished no such opinion. He
wished to give WIZARD the money for his
fruitless experiments, and hoped to open
another sluice way of addition, divi-
sion, and silence. There is no defence for
the relations between SEcoR RoBEsoN the
corrupt Secretary, and NORMAN WIZARD,
the champion gun burster.
