CASEY YOUNG IS NO C0NsPIR-
ATOR.

THE following manly letter from our
distinguished Congressman will be read
with interest 10y his constituents. Casey
Young cannot be induced to comprOm-
Ise his section or himself at this unc-
ture 10 our national affairs. lie Is emf
nently a Conservative stateman, occu-
Fying that ennobling and worthy mid
dle-guard between the two extremes. He
Is no follower of thai democratic ultraist
Fernando Wood, nor is he on the other
hand an ally of those who would barter
and bribe the interests of the South at
this hour of peril. We need just such
representative as he in the councils OF
the nation let UNIV ise rulings obtain
among the leaders of either party and a
terrible revolution is likely to be proVok-
ed, utterly destructive Of the best and
dearest interests Of the people.
Civil war will be no remedy for any
political evil We have tried the sword
ard the blight of death eusued. Peace
and tho agencies and appliances of
peace can and will in course of time
uircumvent the wrong and restore the
country to a condition Of re-assuriRg g
prosperity. We applaud the conservatism
ot Col Young, and are glad to see that
he has not allowed his mind to be strick-
en- with the yellow fever of deep gan
grened prejudice towards the entire Re
publican party. There are wicked and
dangerous men in that party, such as
Morton and Chandler, but the great
bulk Of Republicans condemn election
fraud and are as eager and anxious as
the Democrats to preserve our institu-
tions unimpaired in their purity and
power.
We believe it to be to the interest OF
our people. materially and morally, both
in respect to the present and succeed
ing generation that We should endure Mr.
Hayes rs President for four years rather
than to be plunged into the III m@lstrom of
civil war, to emerge therefrom utterly
wasted and ruined The people mean
peace, and will have and maintain it.
They know that through peace the couu-
try can gain much more than by war
Let tir work its legitimate fruits and
all will be well. Northern Repub llcans
cannot aford and do not intend that
Morton shall wreck the country. Let Us
not take up the howl and cry of alarm
lists and follow the lead Of extreme men
In the midst of revelation conserva-
tism is jewel in the character of any
public man. The North and the Soutr
would love each other, but those arch
tiends the political agitators and scuttle-
fish politicians, who thrive in muddy wa
ters and cloudy weather are the con
spirators destroying the public peace.
Read the following simple bat earnest
statements from our true and tried Rep
resentative:

NEW YORK CORRESPONDENCE.


EDITOR CHIEF:
You who know where the milk you
use comes from, can't imagine the
doubt that besets the New Yorker, as
he pours what he is obliged to accept
as milk into coffee, or if a mother
gives it to her baby. Years ago, the
city was excited by the statements
made of milk produced from distillery-
fed cows, and all will remember the
horrible pictures of cows in every
stage of disease, which were being
MIXED regularly, as long as they
could stand. 1t was fact that milk
was sold in the city, from cows fed
on distilled slops, that never left their
stalls, and were MIXED till they ab-
solutely rOtted. There is another
raid on milkmen now, the charge be-
ing less serious, but just about as an
noying. You all know of the little
girl from New York who spent some
days at cousins in the country. On
her return she was asked how she
liked it. every WE'LL" was the an
swer, ",only l don't think that Susy's
ma is clean woman. The milk we
had had a yellow scum on the top OF
it, and wasn't as pretty as the nice
blue milk / get at home.h The trouble
now is the milk is too blue, and as
there is very stringent law against
adulterating milk, the citizens have
taken it up, and are prosecuting the
milkmen, right and left. A dozen oi
them were arrested, and test ease
made of one. In this case samples O1
milk regularly sold to consumers wer'
tested with the lactometer and it wal
discovered that the compound coule
be hardly called milk at all. There
was basis of pure milk, the rest wa
water, reinforced with sugar, chalk
aud all sorts of nastiness, to give j

business. From the corner of Broad
way and Fourteenth street, at eight
o'clock, P. NJ, I counted eight par
ties, not man of whom could stand
truly erect, and they were still max
ing calls. One young sprig at ten
boasted that he made three hundred
calls, and | should have made two
hundred more. only I was too full.n
Not one in ten of them could afford
the carriage that they rode in, and to
say nothing of the gorgeous clothes
they wore. A carriage for four is $50
day, and the other appurtenances
makes it cost the young man fully
800. This is all we'll enough for
the heir to an estate, but the counter
jumpers, who make up the mass of
callers, find it digs viciously into
their $1,000 year.
The Reform Democracy have
nominated David Dudley Field for
Congress, in the place of Smith Ely,
elected Mayor. Field is fair rep
resentative of the Democratic Reform.
He was Tweed's right bower, and if
there is an unscrupulous trader in
politics and spoils in ew York, who
is entitled, after Tilden, to be closely
watched, he is the man. There hasn't
been nasty thing in the city for
years, that he hasn't had his hand in,
and there hasn't been a job since
Tweed's day that he hasn't proited
by. But, as the district is overwhelm-
nglyiDemocratic, he will be elected,
and as he is very rich, he will be an
ornament to Washington society. We
have no right to sneer at the igno-
rance of the negro, when constituent
cies can be found in the Northern
States to elect such men as Field.
There is much more crime than is
usual, and it is not committed by pro-
fessionals either. The fifty thousand
men out of work and out of bread,
are driven to desperation, and as they
have, in many instances, taken the
bread that they would gladly have
worked for, if they could have had
the work to do. This has been the
worst winter ever known in this city,
and it is growing harder and harder
every day. There is no work for the
half of the mechanics and laboring
men, and the destitution is appalling.
1t is no wonder that thefts and gar
roting are rapidly increasing-the
wonder rather, is that there is not
more of it. Thank heaven it is only
few months till the Spring opens.
PIETRO.
