A New York letter says: There has
been q new movement with reference
to "Boss" Tweed, as / learn on author
ity which cannot be disputed. After
much reflection, Mr.. Tweed has con-
sented to amend his so-called confes-
sion by supplementing it with such
specifications and details as will en-
able the Attorney General to proceed
with certainty against the various par
ties who shared with the ''Boss" his
public plumber. This supplement Is
now in course of preparation, under
the supervision of his counsel, and the
result now will be Tweed's release in
the course of few days. Your cor
respondent is not quite certain that in
disclosing this fact it is not giving the
hint to the persons implicated to take
trip to Europe for the benefit OF
their health before the counsel for the
people is in a position to pay his re-
spects to them; but my apology must
be that am a news-gstherer, and not
public prosecutor.

stitute very small part of the English
rural population. The movement to
extend the suffrage or enlarge the
country franchise, az the English ex-
press it, is constantly gaming 'foi ce,
and probably will come to its result
within this generation. A large meet
ing was recently held at London of
delegates sent up from these country
| districts by the DISTINGUISHED classes
an unprecedented assembly of labor
ers' delegates, $500 in number, con-
vened at the expense and on the mo-
tion of their own constituencies. John
Bright addressed them, and a score OF
eminent members of Parliament sat on
the platform. Mr.. Bright's speech was
of course unanswerable in favor of the
extension of the suffrage to the fifteen
or twenty millions of people now dis
franchised, which includes not merely
rural districts, but many towns of from
10000 to 10000 inhabitants. This
question is Intimately related to that Of
local government reform, which must
be guided by popular suffrage when
tho suffrage once becomes popular.

Packard has been swinging around
among the Unaffected Republicans In
the great Northwest, and he dropped
in at New York last week to report
the progress of the revolt. He says
the Republicans of the West are almost
unanimous IN opposing the Southern
policy of the administration, and en-
phatically asserts his belief that the
Republican party will be defeated this
fall. According to his calculations
they will lose Wisconsin, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, and be slaughtered
worse in New York than they ever
have been before. He has seemingly
great penetration, for after very brief
stay in the latter State he marks down
the Democratic majority at $4,000,
with a sublime confidence in the accu-
racy of his estimate that can come from
nothing else than the belief that be
has been given prophetic vision.

The aggregate length Of railroads
in the United States ID 76, 304 miles,
not including IS, $50 miles of double
track and siding. This gives one mile
for 577 inhabitants Of the country.
Railroad authorities assert that to make
the business profitable there must be
q population Of $50 to a mile of road.
II this estimate be correct, we have too
many miles of railroad or too little
population in the country to make
rsilroading in general profitable. The
number OF miles of road has near
ly doubled In the last tea years. In
1867 there Was one mile of road to
every 925 souls of the population; In
1876 there was one mile to every 577.
The result of this disproportion is the
depressed condition in which so many
roads are placed. Last year there
were seventy-six companies, represent
ing II, 422 miles of road and an sggre'
gate capital of 1855, S4s, $50, being
wound up by legal process, showing
how disastrous the building of these
roads must have been to those who
furnished the money for the work.

The efficacy OF blood drinking for
consumptive, nervous and dyspeptic IN
yalids is being freshly heralded to the
public by BIT. Louis paper. A visit
to the suburb of 'Butchertown" re-
vealed to the reporter that during the
year a considerable number of persons,
m ,inly consumptiYes, frequent the
shambles to partake of this remedy, and
several prominent physicians OF the city
certify their belief in its beneficial
effects. At one time five or six patients
were taking this strange medicine at
one OF the large slaughter houses, and
it is said that after the first pausea ans
aversion were overcome their les 70 for
the nouTishment was intense. But the
initiation is very hard, the scent to a
nervous person being a shocking one,
which has to be repeated quite often
ere it becomes familiar. The oxen are
dragged in by a windlass, knocked in
the head and then "stuck." As the
current of life floods from the cash, the
cups or vessels are held to receive 1t
and it is drank instantly with all the
warmth of healthy vital action upon it.
In this way alone it renders good, and
as may be readily imagined it requires
some exercise of nerves to indulge in
the operation. The taste for blood
when once a"qnired, however, does en-
tirely away ca the nausea which at =
tends its first use. 1t is sweet in taste,
resembling frest milk, and the patient
desires it quite as much as a strong,
healthy person would a good meal when
hungry. 1t is far from being unpal =
table, and moderate fondness for tits
acquired in comparatively short time.
One physician finds that it is not neces-
sary to subject his patients to the re-
house, but places the freshly drawn
blood in steamed warmed bottle and
then in a can filed with hot water,
conveying it quickly as possible to the
drinker. He has effected q number of
cures by this means, and is of the opin-
| ion that when consumption is treated
in this manner its progress can be ar
rested unless the disease has made most
serious inroads upon the lungs. 1t has
also been found most efficacious in
cases of wasting of nervous fibre,
atroPhy And msrasmus. Another class
of patients gain strength from inhala-
ton and absorption of the peculiar par
ticles which abound in the atmosphere
of the slaughter house. This peculiar
and impalpable process is undoubtedly
the means by which butchers acquire
such exceptional health and wonderful
strength. These patients merely SIT in
the apartment for an hour or two at 9
time in the n ming and afternoon.

Imporfa Mt Decisions.

At the present special session Of the
United States District Court at Austin,
Judge Thomas II. Duval presiding,
the following cases, of importance TO
the public, were ruled upon:
1. That the statute of the State of
Texas, making it a felony for white
person TO Intermarry with a negro, is
in violation of the Constitution and
laws OF the United States and void.
2. Where q firm OF two partners
pay their occupation tax, and the one
retires from the firm before the license
expires, the surviving partner can
carry on the business without procur-
ing new stamp in his own name.
3. The following opinion was given
to the grand jury now in session, to-
wit:
'Tf understand your note correctly,
you desire TO know my opinion
as to whether an o&cer of the
United States army, who has been
retired from active service, Is en-
braced in Section 1882, and liable to
the penalties imposed by it . In an
swer to this, l have to say that In my
judgment it is very doubtful whether
the word ''offcer," as used in the sec
ton, was intended to embrace any
other than civil officer. But, however
this may be, it is clear that no officer,
either civil or military, is amenable IN.
