IT is the private talk in political circles
that quarrel, which may take the form Of
an open rupture, is brewing between Mr..
Tilden and Mr.. Hewitt. The misfortunes of
the Democratic campaign, which each charges
upon the other, doubtless lie at the bottom of
this misunderstanding. For example, Mr..
Tilden's friends attribute the loss of Louisi-
ana to Mr.. Hewitt,-upon the ground, we
suppose, that he didn't close in with the
alluring and brilliant offers of Maddox and
Pickett! This is fair specimen of their
sense. Another source of trouble is the
measure of responsibility for the Electoral
Commission. Poor Mr.. Hewitt is undoubt-
edly held accountable in the public mind for
various sins and blunders of the campaign in
which he was only the unwilling agent of his
principal. But,the most serious cause of the
disagreement is understood to be the fact
that Mr.. Hewitt made large advances during
the canvass which Mr.. Tilden now declines
to pay up. This is, indeed, the "most un-
kindest cut of ALL"

The other day was in the Vice Chancellor's
court when an incident of dreadful import
occurred: An outraged suitor flung an egg at

is certainly a much more pretentious person.
1 have marked him we'll Behold him as he
rides in his coach to attend the sittings-hov
loftly he bears himself. On the morning Of
this bad egg business saw the very Judge who
was the victim of it driven up to the court By
liveried coachman by whose side sat the newt.
able footman, also in gorgeous apparel. The
footman descended and obseouiously opsned
the coach door, but his 'ludship" CHANGED to
be engaged at that moment in the perusal of
the morning paper aud was not minded to
alght. So the footman stood motionless as
statue for full fifteen minutes holding the door
open till such time as the great man should be
pleased to step out. At such magistrate was
the egg thrown-and bad one, too, which
dltased unholy odors through the place. The
CONSERVATION of all present was intense.
Ushers, officers, counsel and all seemed for q
moment paralyzed. The very constitution Of
the realm seemed to have received a shock.
Britannia turned pale. Finally the wild-eyed
cnlprit was captured in his flight by the attend
ants and hailed into court, whence, after
| much talking by ''his Ludshp" and counsel
and some disjointed remarks by the prisoner,
he was committed to Jail. 1t was the wonder
OF the day. There were no precedents for is.
Such thing had never been known In Britain.
But next morning all was explained and tho
public mind quisted. On the assembling Of
the court the judge remarked that he had
learned that bis sssailant was Of Americaa birth
and undoubtedly (''therefore'' implied In the
sccent) of unsound mind. And yet this same
wild Cosgrave, who hurled his unfragrant mo.
ton for new hearing at My Lords head wore
mutton-chop whiskers, dropped his chs" like
"demd native" and said 81 beg pardon" In.
terrogatively when he didn't understand what
was said to him. So he is Cockney. But
please don't let the Vice Chancellor know 1t.
The GREAT BOAT RACE.
In an hour after the first news from the
Oxford and Cambridge boat race reached town
to-day there was not man, woman or child,
horse. dog, cat or jackass, but wore some dark
blue decoration, it being supposed that Oxford
had won. When it was finally learned, how
ever, that it was dead heat" some of the
enthusiasts hauled in their colors and others
compromised the matter by uniting the light
blue of the Cantabs with the dark blue of the
Oxfords, and the excitement continues. One
would suppose the British troops had con-
| quered new Napoleon. TRAMP.

The Currency.

The first statement of the national debt
made by the new Administration is very
gratifying one, and the reduction larger, with
out counting the payment of the Alabama
bonds, with the exception Of two months,
than for any month since September 1873.
The total reduction is over fourteen millions of
dollars, over nine millions of which is "due to
the cancellation and destruction of bonds
held in trust for payment of Alabama
awards" The reduction otherwise is 81
553,616. The reduction of currency has
been very large, no less than $1,5S3, 2SO in
legal tenders, and $9O3,9OS of fractional
currency having been retired. The amount
of legal tenders is thus reduced to $346, ,511,-
$50. The whole paper currency in use is
now $5sS, ,192.74O.
The net decrease in bank circulation since
the first day of the year has been million
and quarter, while during the same time
nearly three millions and half of green
backs have been retired. OF the new bank
circulation, some four millions during the
quarter, more than half was taken up by
banks in New York and Massachusetts,,
these States dividing the amount very
equally. The rest of New England took
about 100000, the West 100000, (half of
which was taken by Indiana and the South
$3OO,O0O. The remainder was absorbed by
the Middle States. The West and South
failed to take enough to replace the amount
retired, while New England and the Middle
States show an increase.
The law of 1876 has worked far differently
from the expectations entertained at the
time OF its passage. It was then believed
that the West would make the heaviest call
for new bank currency and that the increase
in the volume Of paper currency would be
large. But the decrease has been large,
amounting to $79,969,96s. Of this there
has been a decrease in legal tenders of
$19,S43, ,796, in bank circulation of $50, ,62O,
1872 and in fractional currency of $22, $50,

AN Article in recent number of the New
York Observer refers to some interesting
cases in the history of that state where the
law of eight to seven prevailed with conspic.
uous rigor. The most striking Of the in.
stances cited will bear repeating. Before De
Witt Clinton was made Governor he pur-
chased tract of land from the executors Of
one Franklin. and some of the legatees resist
ed the transfer. The sale was confirmed by
Chancellor Kent, San adherent of Gov. Clin-
tom" and an appeal was taken before the
Court Of Errors in 1917, after Mr.. Clinton
had been elected Governor. This court-the
ultimate court of appeal-at that time con-
sisted of the Senate, the Chancellor, the
Chief Justice and the Associate Justices of
the Supreme Court; and in this particular
case all the judges who were political friends
Of the Governor and every Senator who had
favored his nomination as Governor voted to
sustain his title, while the judge and all the
Senators who were his political opponents
voted against his claim. Thus thirty five
men divided exactly on the party line in the
decision of a question which had no political
bearing whatever except in so far as it affect
ed the pecuniary interest of distinguished
politician with warm political friends and Wig
orous political oppodents. Partisan bias
seems to have been an influence quite as con-
trolling sixty years ago as it is to-day.

ENGLAND has new character who

the parliamentary franchise. Twelve silver

SECRETARY FISH recently recovered at the
cost of $500 the original journal of Mason and
Dixon, the English surveyors who in the
