more mischievous than the other, because it
adds religious fanaticism to political fanati-
cism, and now and then may produce an as

A Serious Accident to William Cullen
Bryant.
NEW YoRk, May 3O.-Ihe Erening Fost
furnishes the following account Of an acci-
dent to VIM. Cullen Bryant: The exercises
in Central Park yesterday afternoon on the
occasion of unveiling the bust of Mazzini,
occupied between one and two hours at a
part of the day when the least air was stir
ring and the sun gave the most intense heat.
During good deal of that time Mr.. Bryant
was in his place on tho speakers stand,
with head uncovered, suffering like many
younger man in the assembly from the e1-
posure, though making no complaint. At
the close of the open air exercises he was
taken by Gen. James G. Wilson to his
house on East Seventy-fourth street,
to rest after the exertions of the afternoon,
and to partake of some refreshments. Ar
rived at their destination, Gen. Wilson ran
ahead up the steps to open the front door
for his guest, who followed at a slower pace,
induced by fatigue. On the platform step
Mr.. Bryant suddenly seemed to have lost
consciousness, and in the act of raising one
foot to enter the vestibule, fell backward on
the broad stone, striking his head with some
violence. He was lifted and carried into the
house. where he was laid on sofa. dis
patch being sent to his family physician,
and as soon as thought prudent
he was moved in carriage to
his own house, "a West Sixteenth
street. DR.. Gray, his physician, came as
quickly AS possible, made an examination,
and after hearing an account of the accident,
expressed great surprise at the absence of
| any bruise or cut on his patients head. He
was of opinion that Mr.. Bryant's swoon was
of the kind known to the medical profession
| as syncope-caused by diminution or in
| terruption of the motion of the heart and OF
| respiration, connected with suspension of ac-
ton of the brain and temporary loss OF
sensation, volition and other faculties. It is
| thought that more severe hurt than that
which actually befen him was ayerted posi-
| bly, by the thickness and softness of his felt
| hat. which saved his head from
much of the force of the blow
DR.. Carnochan was called in to consulta
ton by DR.. Gray, on the surgical aspects o1
the case, and their joint conclusion was thai
no serious harm to the brain is to be feared
though what other internal disorder may
have been caused by the fall it was impossi
bic at the time to judge, since Mr.. Bryan
| resisted every effort to examine him by physi
cal contact. During the night he was rest
less and in only a partly conscious state, no
appearing to recognize the persons abou
him, but evidently having plenty of vii
power and some physical strength at hi
command. His friend, MIR. j. Graham, whs
was at his side as watcher, attempted onc'
or twice to feel his pulse, but he would draw
his wrist away, and finally with an impetu
Gus gesture throw Mr.. Grahams hand en-
| tirely from him.

The Potter committee have made grave
mistake at the start, which we hope to see
rectifed at tho earliest possible moment.
The members of the committee have been
pledged to secrecy as to the deliberations,
and but little is known of their proceedings.
The public will not be satisfied with a
star-chamber investigation. They will de-
mand that the proceedings be conducted
openly and above board; and that all testi-
mony be laid before the people without the
least delay. If the cause cannot stand with
in the light of q full and open day, then it
had better be abandoned. Secrecy will only
create suspicion, and lead to the fear that
fairness is not one of the elements that con-

The reported reorganization of the cabi-
net which contemplates leaving Key and
Schurz out in the cold, has reached Keys
ears, and he denies emphatically that any
such thing is contemplated. The Chicago
Times Washington correspondent says:
Friends Of Mr.. Key say that such report is
highly improbable; that in accepting the office
Mr.. Key compromised himself as much if not
more than the President did in rendering him
the appointment, and that now, after Key has
so earnestly sympathized with the President
and co-operated with him in his various poll
tics it would be unlike Mr.. Hayes. and GER
tainly unjust to Mr.. Key, to push him out of
the cabinet, at a time, too, when Mr.. Key is in
disfavor with his own party.
All of which, reduced to plain English,
means that Key has SO obsequiously eaten
dirt for the sake of Office that he has dis
gusted both parties, and doesn't want to be
turned out until he has had time to flop
back into the favor of the Democracy. The
party, however, will never become so con-
temptible as to condonesthe ofense of so
foul bird.

The Tide of Immigration.
To the Editor of the Globe.

To the Editor of the Globe.
NORTHERN PACIFIC, May 81, 187s.-The
papers of Minnesota have good deal to say
about the great tide of humanity flowing
into and through the State, but an editor
sitting in his office and drawing his know
ledge out of other papers or hearing others
talk or read what they write about it, can
neither form correct idea of the lmmensity
of that tide or convey it to his readers. To
properly realize it, you want to station your
self for but week on one of our great high
ways of travel, and probably nowhere would
its force strike you as it does on the North
ern Pacific or St. Paul & Pacific. Westward
was formerly the rallying cry, but now it is
toward the north star, and the great rush is
northern Dakota, northern Minnesota and
Manitoba. Every boat leaving Fishers
Landing this Spring has been crowded with
emigrants and their effects, including house
hold goods and entire outfits of farming
utensils and teams; many of them bringing
their cows, pigs, dogs and chickens from
Lower Canada, as far east as Montreal. As
q general thing they have their teams bond
ed with the privilege of driving them
from Fisher to Winnipeg. Quite number,
seeing the beautiful prairies of Minnesota
and Dakota, have forfeited their lands
and settled in this State,
whilst others go to Emerson
in compliance with their bonds and then re-
turn to the States. Thus is this country
being settled up with astonishing rapidity.
European emigrants are extremely scarce,
as nearly all are from Canada and the
States.
There are now awaiting shipment at
Fishers, number of car loads of Hudson
Bay goods, per the Mckenzie river and Lake
Athabaska, and are marked 1879, which
means that they viii just be one year reach
ing their destination. Most of these goods
are put up in packs with straps, ready to be
slung on the back of the packer who is to
carry his load for 1000 miles, after leaving
the navigable streams. St. Paul is no more
the jumping off place of this continent as it
was 25 years ago, as that point has been
transferred several thousand miles away.

The result of the investigation of the con
vict Reeds death in the Joliet prison is the
same old story that is generally told when
such an inquiry is entrusted to persons con
nected with prison management. That
Reed was fogged and strangled to death by
the prison guards is unquestionable, but the
penitentiary commissioners who conducted
the investigation merely discharged the two
guards and reprimanded the two doctors and
the deputy warden who had assented to, if
not ordered, the brutal treatment of Reed.

G OLD 4 Nd IRON.

Ii gold existed in the earth as
easily obtained, it would he of no
more value. Nay. it would not be as
useful. The scarcity of the one,
and the universal predominance of
the other, show the relative impor-
lance which the God of nature attach
ed to the two metals Iron exists in
the sun, but not gold. Iron exists in
man. bat not gold. Iron was dis
covered and used in the first ages of
the world. Tubul Cain, the grand
son of Adam was a worker in iron.
The ancient Greeks used it as their
gold: it was so cumbersome that none
could he very rich. and as a conse-
quence none mere extremely poor. 1t

love OF avarice. With less avarice
there would be less SwIndleS and

be more friendship and apathy.
Why not make us iron money! This

ruis of doing to others as others do to

gard as practicable. Iron money
would have a pretty solid basis. as

THE MOST USIBLE OBJEC

One OF the most plausible objections
of the hard-money Hpapers to an issue
of national Greenback currency sutfi-
cient TO pay off the whole of oar

flooding the country with them. would
depreciate their value, till they be-
came comparatively worthless. Now

interests are identical in this matter.

work out. We want but one money
for all people and that absolutely the
best. That can't be gold, for there is
not enough of it. 1t cannot be silver
for the same reason. But it can and
should be the Greenback. But we
cannot make this absolute and divide
its reign with the metals. Hence We
propose 10 demoneiize both gold and

TOO MUCH PLATFORM.

find no plank in the platform abolish
the electoral college. The following
is the editors reply:
The electoral college is not respon-
sible for the hard times.
1t did not drive labor to tramp and
beg.
1t did not produce the financial
wrecks that are streWn along the
channels of trade.
1t did not beggar and impoverish
the people.
It's adjustment would not restore
prosperity, feed the hungry, clothe
the naked. or turn humanity from the
