The browning feat in modern stage COACH
ing in America was accomplished yesterday,
when the ''Tally Ho" successfully jour-
neyed from New York to Philadelphia be-
tween sunrise and sunset, and fresh I'M
petus has thus been given to this charming
amusement on this continent. That the
trip proved success was to- be expected
from the ample and careful preparation
and the skill Of the several coach
men who handled the ribbons IN turn
during the hundred mile ride, but we
doubt if even these enthusiastic gentle
men anticipated the ovation that was ac-
corded them all along the route. Starting
in the early sunlight, ut IN hour when the
city has scarcely awakened to the realities
OF another day, the Italy Ho" and It's
merry load Of passengers found many pleas
ant faces in the streets and cordial greet
ings at every turn, thus commence
ing the journey under the hap
piest auspices. Crossing the Hudson.
the coach ratified through Jersey
City in fine style, the streets alive with
people and flags flying from housetop and
window in honor Of the event. On, on
went the ''Tally Ho" over pleasant roads
lined with orchards redolent with blossom
ing promises of fruity harvests, across
picturesque bridges spanning historic
streams, and through cities, towns
and villages busy and industrious
with tho serious cares Of life. But
busy as they were the inhabitants
found time to give q hearty welcome
to the coach, rs they listened to the piercing
notes of the guards horn or watched the
dexterous driving Of the coachman. Farm
crs halted in the fulrow to wave their
weather-beaten hats to the voyageurs, while
from the distant homestead tho good wife
Joined in the universal welcome. From
first to last the trip was one continual
triumph and the journey must have been
most exciting one to the participants.
At every cross roads, in every town
or village, at every bridge or tollgate, on
distant hilltops, the ''Tally Ho' found q
hearty greeting as it passed along the road
to Philadelphia. But when the coach
reached Nicetown lane and entered Broad
street all previous welcomes were outdone,
for the party found several thousand car
riages standing four deep, the line extend
ing distance of nearly two miles. Through
this mighty concourse of vehicles the
"Tally Ho' plunged on, and finally
drew up at the st. George Hotel
in gallant style. The description OF the
journey, published elsewhere, calls to mind
Tom Pinch's coaching experience, and
like that effort of Dickens it has breezy
air that is refreshing in these prosaic days.
Of express trains and iron bound roads.
The ride to Philadelphia was gallant effort
and it is gratifying to record the success at
tanned, for though made for pleasure it can
not fail to have wholesome effect in slim
ulating coaching from tho Atlantic to the
Pacific.

Color blindness is an extraordinary thing.
Dalton. who discovered it by finding
crowd of his friends in ecstasies over an
Alpine sunset which to him seemed nothing
worth making a fuss about was philoso-
pher. There are probably many other kinds
Of partial inefficiency of the optic nerves
which have not been discovered. We
think we have hit upon one OF them,
and are as proud of our discovery as
Professor Peters over that of little
pup planet, with or without moons. Our
discovery is official dirt-blindness. The
late Lord Pallnerston was probably dirt
blind, for he defined dirt as 'matter
out of place." and as there is much
matter SO situated in this world he
probably was not respectful toward
other peoples over-nicety on the subject.
Our whole Police Board and Inspector
Gunner are doubtless dlrt-Llind also. Our
streets areyery dirty; filthy, in some crowded
localities, would be the better word,
but tho whole Board and Captain Gunner
came out on the steps of the Marble Halls
Of Mulberry street and averred that the
streets were very clean. In vain HERALD
reporter pointed to particularly dead
dog and brace OF dead cats
within the throw of club Of
Police Headquarters. The whole Board
and Captain Gunner looked in the direc-
ton indicated Said one, "There is
dead cat on the top Of soma decaying gar
barge;" said another, "There is an
other dead cat reposing amid some house
refuse = said Captain Gunner, "There is
a dead dog in q pool Of slops, but"
and hore they all spoke in impressive uni
son.-''there is no dirt" We have, we
think, proved our case. All these things
are dirt and dirty, but our officials, who
have occasionally Argus eyes for thieves,
liquor sellers and drunken men, have no
eyes for dirt. Yet they are our street
cleaners. Is there no way to open their
eyes? If not, we would advise cutting off
their heads as u partial cure.

as an evidence Of complete ignorance OF the

to fight in any cause or under any colors

On the part of all worthy Irishmen in tho

We present our warmest congratulations
to the French Republic on the success
which attended the opening of the great
Exposition in Paris. We were not before
fully aware of the deliberate attempt by the
defeated and snarling royalist and Bona
partist factions to make the ceremonies on
the opening day failure. Fortunately
the people do not take counsel Of these
wretchcd partisans, who, having been sent
into retirement at the toe OF tho popular
boot, sought to revenge their fall upon the
Marshal President Had they enthusiastic
cally supported the Exhibition they could
scarcely have injured it; but that was tho
only way they could have hoped to repel
favor from it. The people, however, took
the affair in hand, and by their order,
peaceable disposition and self-respect
gained genuine victory for the Republic.
Among the little fctions of the Bonapartists
was one that the social disposition which
leads to that lavish display which makes
shopkeeping lucrative and the haberdash-
cry industry brisk could only blossom un-
der an imperial regime. Paris has proved
that she can furnish her own sbread and
circus" without the shadow of an Emperor
at the Tuleries. 1t pleases us also to learn
that our brethren Of the American colony
have been enjoying themselves glorously
in keeping this festival of the sister Kepub-
lie. Our American Cardinal, who happens
to be in the French capital and will soon be
hicing homeward has received marked

An effort has been made this year to re-
vive the old time enthusiasm for the May
anniy ersaries, but without the old time hos
plasis to them. The Broadway Tabernacle,
whose ancient halls when it stood down
town reverberatcd with the eloluencc Of
many an anniversary speaker, has for the
associations connected with it been chosen
for many Of the general gatherings, and will
be fully occupied for some days. The glory
of anniversary week departed several years
ago, and the annual meetings OF the
benevolent societies, whose centre Is in
New York, dcgencratcd into cold and formal
affairs. This was regretted and complained
Of in many quarters, as manifesting a
popular lack OF interest in the benevolences
represented, which. however, the receipts
of those societies ought to show is not the
case. DIR. William Adams has taken the
leading part in the revival Of those annual
gatherings, and the several churches in the
vicinity of the Tabernacle and many others
have been asked to omit their meetings dur
ing this week. There is an advantage in
having the anniversaries concentrated, both
in time and place they can be readily
found and their business be promptly at
tended to. If the new Elevated Railroad
in Sixth avenue was in operation 1t could
drop visitors ut the doors of the Tabernacle.
While the old time enthusiasm Is hardly to
be expected, yet these meetings ought to
receive far more hearty support than has
been accorded to them for several years
past.
