one Of the safest and most sagacious
leaders Of public sentiment in Ken~
lucky at this time-strikes the nail
ON the head in the following re-
marks
TIE people are not looking TO
New York for leader in the strug-
gle for relief which they are about
to make. They are turning to the
great West, the prolific mother Of
stalwart men and Of a dauntless
spirit of freedom. They are turning
to such men as Ewing and Pendle-
ton, Of Ohio, Hendricks, of Indiana,
and Palmer, of Illinois There must
be no compromise with Wall street
in 1880. Mr.. Tilden has seen his
day. His career is ended. New
and younger men, imbued with the
spirit of the people, must step to
the front and lead the way to Victo-
,ry.
The only amendment we would
make to the above would be the sub
stitutisn of the name of Voorhees,
for that of Hendricks. Voorhees, is
the fresher. brighter, franker and
ADLER man of the two. In the pres
ent issue between labor and capital.

Distressing Calamity.

The steamer Metropolis started
from Philadelphia to Para, Brazil,
having on board about 260 passen
gers. On the afternoon of the 3Oth
January, off the coast of North
Carolina. the steamer was seized by
a terrific gale and was submerged
by the pillows. The loss Of lives is
estimated at $50. The beach for
several miles on each side of the
wreck was strewn with bodies. It
seems the people on board of the
Metropolis, seeing no prospect of
help from the shore, gave up all
hope, and after the word was given
TO ''saVe yourself" CONSERVATION
prevailed, over which no mortal pow
er had control. A survivor of the
wreck makes this statement: The
Metropolis. Capt. J. II. Ankers,
left Philadelphia at 9 A. n. on the
18th Of January, and discharged the
pilot at / P. NJ. at the breakwater.
AT 8 P. NJ, on the 30th. the vessel
started a heavy leak in the rudder
case. Finding we could not gain
on the leak with the pumps we con-
cluded TO Tighten the steamer by
overthrowing the coal, aud hurrying
away for Hampton Roads. AT mid
night, the circulating pump gave

smoke stack, boats and engine room

The ship was completely unmanage

done for the vessel, we attempted
to reach the beach 20 save what

1t was mentione1 recently that jhe
large majority OF Democratic mem
bers of Congress would be strongly
opposed to any re-opening the Fec
toral count. Probably as large. il
not larger aumbeT. are opposed to
any idea Of making Dir. Hilden q
nominee in 1880, AMI Mr.. Mills, of
Texas, in what he said on the floor
of the House on Friday last, repre-
scented that sentiment. A very
prominent public man, said q per-
senal friend of Mr.. TiIden, and in
conversation with your correspond
ent that the trouble with Dir. Tllden
was that he was inlscisive, and that
he was not here. he had been
taken up by the Peop.e because he
represented the great principle OF
reform. He had been elected on
that platform, and it was his mi5fOr-
tune that he lacked those qualities
which would have enabled him to
se'ze the victory he had won. An
ether gentlepan, one OF the Demo
cratic counsel before the Electoral
Commission, says that nothing could
have kept Mr.. Tilden from the Pre- 81
dency had he only publicly, early in
the winter, uttered Tue one sentence
that he meant to have the office TO
which he had been elected and ex-
pected the people 20 stand by hiIA.
Then Mr.. Iilden, il denying now
that he favored tbs project Of au
Electoral Commission, takes issue
with one of his nearest friends, who
understood him to assent to il. 1t is
such facts as these which cause such
widespread opposition TO the lead-
ers Of the Democratic party here 20

daily adding to its already justly won
celebrity. From all sections of the
country, we receive the most favorable
accounts of its great efficacy. 1t has
been used with the most satisfactory
results by great number of our citizens,
for various diseases, such as Soar Throat,
Erysipelas, Dyspepsia and a variety of
chronic affections. Nearly every one
who has tried it, speak of it as wonder
full specific. AS for my own experience,

The Great Family Paper,
THE NEW YORK LEDGER
For 1873.

The Ledger for the year to come will
be conducted on the same principles as
il has been heretofore-only, if possible
it will be made still better,
The Ledger has been too long establish
ed to require of us any specific promises
for the future. We leave nothing in our
power undone for the qualification. and
instruction of our subscribers.
Many of those who were children
when they first begun to read the Ledger
now have children of their own, and
some of them grandchildren, who read
their favorite paper. There could hard
ly be q stronger testimonial to the ex-
eellence of Its character than is thus
given to the Ledger by the regular re-
newal of these subscriptions.
Our great exertion for the coming
year will be to make volume that will
be superior to the best of its predeces-
sors.
The Ledger is always alive and fresh
and full of interest.
The stories for the coming year will
be by the most popular of our old writ
ers and the best of the new writers who
have occasionally contributed to our
columns.
The miscellaneous articles by emf
nent scholars and divines will be con-
tinued; so viii our accurate scientific
department.
We shall reply, as heretofore, to the
innumerable questions sent to us on love
and domestic affairs, and every variety
of subject.
Wherever the Ledger goes-and it goes
nearly everywhere-it is generally con
-ceded there is not reader to whose
happiness it does not minister
