A Growing Dislike to Tilden

There is also an increasing manifestation
of dislike to Tilden among the southern
democrats, aud the Washington Sunday
Herald, a democratic newspaper, has q
leading article protesting against a new
election with Tilden as candidate. 1t says
$50 far from asserting to the claim that
Mr.. Tilden is entitled to another nomina-
ton at the hands Of his party, We charge
that to his nomination and to the party
management which it involved, or which
was submitted to at his dictation, is chiefly
due our present defeat. 1t is as gross an
absurdity to compare his case with that of
jackson, when Adams was elected by the
house of representatives, as it would be to
compare the rich, supple and adroit New
York lawyer and veteran politician with
the rugged and poor soldier and patriot
who rose to deserved fame after his splen-
did exploit at New Orleans. The circum-
stances of the two cases are as diametIic-
ally unlike as the characters of the men
We charge that the nomination of Mr..
Tilden was obtained by disreputable means.
In this case the Office did not seek the man
but the man sought the office by the agen-
cies with which wealthy and interruptions
politicians are familiar"

The president INDUCED in his usual
" Sunday talk" and stated that he had no
intention of reslgning on the third day Of
March so that, in case Of failure to COM
plete the count, the president pro tempore
of the senate could legally become acting
president of the United States. He seems
to regard failure to elect as an impossible
contingency, and that, therefore, there will
be no necessity for his resigning. In this
connection. we may remark that there
seems now to be general agreement that
existing laws do not provide for the sue
cession in case of failure to elect and
declaration of the result prior to the fourth
of Marcia position that we assumed as
early as the middle of November-and that
in such contingency there would be an
actual ''interregnum" for which neither
the constitution or laws have provided.

Speech by Roscoe Conkling.

During the debate on counting the cleo
toral vote of Oregon, in the senate, Satur-
day, Mr.. Conkling spoke as follows
Mr.. Preddent:-Oregon meant to ap-
point the republican presidential electors.
The people Of Ore gon, by a plain and I'M
denied majority, honestly and Intentional
ly voted for the republican electors. Two
certificates having been received from Ore
gon, the question Of the count of her votes
has been examined by the electoral COM
mission. A majority of the commission
ers have sent Us two things First, decis-
ion that the vote ought TO be counted as
the people of the state really and honestly
meant it to be counted, and as they de-
clared at the ballot box that II should be
counted; second, statement Of the reas-
ons by which the decision was reached by
the commissioners. On the first matter
thus reported, the power to utter the
should speak. My vote here will ex.
press this judgment All beyond
this disclaim. In the brief moments al
lotted to this discussion, an argument
would not be possible. l shall therefore
attempt no argument of my reasons. IN
deed, could an argument be made in the
ten minutes given to each senator, would
| not attempt TO make one. will do moth
| ing to defer for moment the conclusion
of the presidential count. On the con-
trnry, will in every lawful way hasten
the proceedings, to the end that at the ear
Hest hour, the vote of the last state may be
counted. The decision 10 that Oregon's vote
should be counted as designed and directed
by the people of Oregon. The senate is
called upon to express its judgment.
The form of this expression is proposed in
the pending resolution. That resolution
does not, as ! understand it, summon any
senator to express his opinion of the rea-
sons assigned for the decision submitted tC
us. therefore say nothing about the ar.
gument or reasons which appear in The
paper read in the joint meeting to-day
Every senator is entitled to his own argu
ment, and his own mode of arriving at biz
| opinion. believe Oregon's votes SHOULD
epeak as those who had the right, and TIT
result declared under the law quietly, Ger
tainly and conclusivcly, l therefore sur
render, in the interest Of expedition, thu
remainder of my time.

REPORTED REMOVAL OF
sEcToR RICH

ARDS, OF PETERsBuRG-CoL L BRADY, THE
LUCKY MANA, private telegram received
from washington yesterday by d prominent
Republican OF this city stated that George
8. Richards, ESQ.,, collector OF internal
revenue for the Petersburg district, was to
be removed; !; and CoIoneB5. D. Brady put
in his place. Colonel Brady Is aresident OF
Portsmouth, and has, heretofore held office,
and ran for the Senate last year, but
failed to receive The certificate, and
in the contest before the Senate COM
mittee, though he got q favorable re-
port, was not seated by the Senate. During
the presidential campaign he was here dill
gently at work as secretary OF the National
Republican State Committee, and rs such
long indulged the hope that Hayes would
be President. It is said By one OF his most
intimate friends that he is o native Of Vir-
ginia, but being in the North when the war
broke out volunteered in the ranks. and
rose to the position OF colonel in the United
States army. "c' i:.t.
Any way, he went to Washington en-
dorsed by Republicans in great numbers,
and by Conservatives to some extent, for
the place Of collector Of customs for the
port OF Norfolk, made vacant by the recent
death of Luther Lee. Armed rs he was by
personal influence and by epistolatoryj re-
concentrations, his suit failed. Mosby was
for Braxton, and Braxton got the collector
ship. ''s' ~
The President, however, determined to
provide for Colonel Brady. The list OF
Federal offices in Virginia was searched
over, and the telegram before alluded to
states that the collectorship OF internal reve-
nue. for Petersburg was hit upon, and Rich.
ards removed to make way for him. p

Tho Properties OF Cosnac Brandy.


Cognac brandy is at first o colorless
LIQUID, but it gradually acquires pale-yel-
low or amber color from the cask in which
il is kept for aging. With its natural ap-
pearance, however, it never appears to the
consumer, public taste having become viii
ated to the extent of requiring rich brown
or brandy color, which is impaired by a
mixture OF caramel or burnt sugar. Oc-
casionally, too, "a! little red sanders
wood is used for coloring. The con-
stituents are alcohol and water and
small quantities of volatile oil, acetic
acid, acetic ether, Gnanthic ether, tannin,
&C., and, us it reaches the consumer, color
lug matter. The quantity OF alcohol varies
| from 4S to IS per cent, the latter being the
standard strength, or "rroof." It is gen.
orally imported into Eng land at to 3 over
proof, but the strength is lessened by age,
so that when taken from bond for sale it sell
dom exceeds 8 or under proof. The quality
OF the brandy depends not, as may be gen.
erally supposed, on the quantity OF alcohol
it contains so much rs on the minor con-
stituepts, notably the 9nanthic ether, from
which it derives its distinguishing smell and
flavor. This fact becomes apparent when it
is reflected that while brandy, rs Is well
known, improves with age, it loses thereby
finest brandies, in fact, average from five to
ten under proof, and never rise above two
under proof. In this connection one or two
interesting facts may be noted. 1t has al
ready been stated that the grape from which
the best Cognac brandyis obtained yields at
best an inferior wine. Now, the best Wine
making grapes contain acomparatiyelyl large
proportion OF sugar, which varies from
IL to 26 and SO per cent, and it is the sugar
that in fermentation is converted into alco-
hol. The tolle blanche, however, contains
relatively small quantity Of sugar, or only
about to per cent. Again, the ripper
the grape the more sugar it will contain; !;
but experience has taught the vine-dresser
of the Deux Charentes that, II their grapes
are allowed to thoroughly rtpen, the oranay
produced is stronger, but proportionately
inferior in quality. So that oil the facts
lend confirmation to the statement Just
made. f8.sz5, :r# 8 sitls II, 5sf

THE LE1GH-STREET. BAPTIST CHURCH En-
TERTAINMENT LAST NIGHT.-Althougl the
Leigh-Street Baptist church was not crowd
ed last. night upon the occasion OF Dr.. w.
IT. Taylor's first entertainment on Church
Hill, vet there was a fair audience present,
and the exhibition was one of the most sue
cessful OF the kind ever given in the city.
DR.. Taylor was very humorous and witty
in his descriptive lecture, and the scenes
were brought out with much brilliancy and
tine effect by the lanterns and calcium
light. r -....,1,
These entertainments are becoming so
popular that the Doctor has determined to
arrange one or two entirely new series OF
views, embracing both European and Ame-
rican scenes, and will in few days give
very choice exhibition for the benefit Of one
OF the churches on Shockoe Hill. s
Tomorrow Thursday night there will
be another entertainment ut Leigh-Street
church, with change Of programme.
