scowl is so expressive and the quicker Of the
mouth so perfect that you can almost hear
the echo Of the bump as he sat down, and

nouncement Of Mr.. Tilden's election was a
mistake when the organized mouth Of
Democracy seemed puckercd into the same

of having sat down precipitately. If we might

The reason why swindlers like Edinboro Boy sue
coed in bking hotel keepers and in borrowing
money never to be repaid is that there is nothing
essentially impossible in their prctensions. The
brilliant person who has just cheated Mr.. Hiram
Cranston of the New-York Hotel, and sundry other
gentlemen, said that he an officer in the Turk.
ish navy and that he here to charter ships and
to buy arms for the Turkish Government. Then he
had those indispensable inpedimend OF the success
full confidence man-he had many trunks. Now, it
is fact, unfortunate or otherwise, that many
trunks do make always a favorable impression on
the mind of the average publican, while a very hon
est man, with money TO pay his bill in his pocket is
apt to be distrusted il he comes in light marching
order with nothing but carpet bag. Moreover,
EdinbOro Bey had caused to be painted upon his
trunks the Ottoman star and crescent. He also
fez and that was in his favor. He talked
largely, and that was Turkish He gave good din
ners and Eastern hospitality is proverbial. Wea
not at all astOnished at his successful knayery nor
do we really see any infabe way of always guard
ing against such accomplished operators as he. One
gentleman who writes to the newspapers that he
did not lend Edinboro Bey any money, but that he
certainly would have done so if he had been asked
expresses exactly the danger of being duped from
which nobody is free. We are afraid that the con-
cluson must be that very few people are as sharpas
they think they are in detecting plotters against
their purses. If nobody could be cheated there
would be 40 cheating. The proverb which says that
fine feathers make fine birds as true as ever. The
world could not go on without trusting somebody
and consequently the world must sometimes be de-
plorably humJugged.

The Castellani Collection of Majoica Antique
Jewelry Marbles Bronzes, and Rings Is now open
to the public at the Metropolitan Museum of
Fine Art In West Fourteenth-st. The terms on
which this collection has been loaned to the trustees
by Signor Cas.ellani have already been made known
to the public. These conditions make separate
admission fee necessary, and it has been fixed at
twenty-five cents in order to tax the public as
lightly as possible At the same time, every one
who visits the collection will have the satisfaction
of knowing that besides the pleasure of studyinga
rare treasure he is helping to secure its possession
TO the city, since if we are able TO raise the money
for its purchase all receipts from the sale of admls'
sion tickets will be credited TO the buying fund.
The charm of the collection is that 1t Is shed

Ex-G0v. Wells made the same mistake yes
terday in his testimony that more worthy Re
publicans have made in his bchalf-hc paid too
much attention to Littlefield and therefore too
little to himself. TO be sure, he succeeded III
raising a strong presumption that Littlefcd
had been doing some superb lying, but Little
field himself had already saved him that
trouble. II was about Mr.. Weiss letter that
we were more anxious to hear. That document,
with its mysterious illusions to the "millions
"scnt here" and the need Of millions on the
other side, to "mOyeS," and the disastrous
results that would follow if the millions were
not forthcoming, certainly needed explanation,
if ever letter did. It cannot be said that Mr..
Wells has given any. The first part OF the
letter is said TO refer to Senator Vests plans
for reelection. about which it was "imprudent
"to write" But about the rest Mr.. Wells Is
focey indeed. The substance of his cXplana-
ton seems to he that Maddox was to go Oh to
Washington and merely make "a state
"ment" of the condition of things,
which Mr.. Wells did not altogether like.
This was an innocent mission surely, which the
newspapers would seem to have made unneces-
sary, but its credentials were couched i'll terms too
mysterious to be altogether guilecss. If Mr..
Maddox was merely to make statement"
there was a good deal of unnecessary rhetoric
Used upon the letter which he bore; rather
more about "moves," the necessity of prompt
action to prevent disastrous results" and of

usually found in letters Of this kind. Mr. Wells

confiding minds in the community.

The proposition to shut off the introduction
of bills in the Legislature after March 10 is a
sensible one. There is notion abroad that
the usefulness of a Legislature is strictly pro-
portioucd to the number of brakes that are
put upon it. This is one that will tend to
well-considered legislation, and perhaps to an
carly adjournment.

It may not be the fault Of the Democratic
party, but it is certainly its misfortune that
It's good faith should be under constant sus-
picion. Does any one doubt that the RcpuDll-
can party, parti>ans, independents, and ALL
will accept the decision OF the Commission
promptly and without reserve, whether 1t
makes Gov. Hayes President or not! But
what of the Democratic party! At almost every
step in the long discussion that has finally
wrought out n mode. such as it is, OF settling
the difficulty, the universal uncertainty has been
dccpened by the general lack of confidence in
the faithful adherence of the Democrats to
any plan of arbitration which did not mean
Gov. Tildcn's inauguration. These doubts and
suspicious are still abroad iii Washington,
though the Commission, which owes its exist
ence mainly to Democratic votes, Is IL the
midst of its Woik. 1t may be that Observers
at the capital are Ovcr-suspiciouS OF party
which will bear a great deal of watching. The
incidents that have given rise TO these ques-
tiOnngs. such az Mr.. OConOr's declaration yes
terday that the House is the sole judge as to
when a President has been elected, may not
have any special significance. But there Is
evidently a widespread distrust of that organi-
cation which ought to surprise nobody, least
of all its own .members, especially when a
leading Democrat of the House openly declares
that Mr.. Iiden will not abide by an adverse
decision.

Gen. Diaz appears to be in fair way to
exchange the Office of Dictator for that of
President Of Mexico. The electors recently
chosen are to meet next Sunday and record
their votes for President. If q majority OF the
districts send in returns, tho election will be
valid according to the Mexican Constitution,
and the Deputies will doubtless confirm it
when they count the votes on the 18th OF
March. Should Gen. Diaz be truly the popu-
lar choice, he will be fairly entitled to recOg-
milton at our hands.

Mr.. Charles O'CouOr can DO nothing now
to shake the alfcctionato reverence in which
this generation must always hold the present
brilliant and incorruptible leader of the Anne
rican bar. But no younger man, with lame
less secure and license OF speech less absolute,
could have ventured upon so gross an aiiront
to one-half the court he was addressing as
that with which the venerable advocate dis
figured Che plea he yesterday made in aid OF
Mr.. David Dudley Field in the case OF Illden
against the Constitution, fhe precedents, and
the people. Mr. OConOr is singularly uniortu-
nate in these recent outbursts of violent tenn
per. He had only just returned from apologize
inc to the President of the United States for
wanton personal insult, when he assured one
half the high court that they could not look
honest men in the face and assert without
blushing their belief in the election of Hayes.
1t has certainly been fifty years since Mr..
O'Conor appeared in a Tombs police court case,
and yet he seems to retain a vivid recollection
of It's methods. Mr.. TIldcn may well pray to
be delivered from such defense.

There ought to be prompt and generous
response from every part of the country to the
appeal made for funds for the reception and
proper placing of the Bartholdi statue of Lib
erty. The offer of this testimonial of nations
friendship was so generous and cordial that 1t
would be to the last degree ungracious to
keep the outstretched hand of France waiting
for a moment. Every citizen ought to make
it a matter of pride to give something toward
this object. MIR. Evarts and his colleagues
will take as little as ten cents; no one seems
70 be expected to subscribe much more than n
hundred dollars. These are figures for a popu-
lar subscription, and it ought to deserve the
name.

The dismissal of Midhat Pasha from the
Office of Grand Vizier and the appointment of
Edhem Pasha to succeed him, are in harmony
with the defiant policy which is in favor at
Constantinople. Midhat Pasha was reformer
from expedency rather than conviction. lie
was instrumental in promulgatng the new
Constitution, and strongly recommended the
Grand Council to accept the terms of peace
proposed by the Conference. His successor,
Edhcm Pasha, was one of the Turkish repre-
sentatves at the Conference, and was noted
for his violent opposition to every scheme
savOring of foreign intervention. The appoint
mcnt Of this reactionary official and the re-
organization of the Ministry render the war
party dominant. ard corrcspondingly reduce
the prospects of peace.
