If the dispatch as given and translated gives
Mr.. Smith NJ. Weed any concern, perhaps ne

somebody go to work in Florida without de-

General Garfield gave the secret Of the great vic
tory in Ohio in brief speech at Cleveland. while
the news was coming in. "All of our men every
where" he said, "haYe made superb filht fight
with barrd swOrd-wth no cotton around tie
blade" That is the way the fight must be made
everywhere. The Indianapolis Journal says the Ro-
publicans lost some Congressman in Indiana simply
because they were weak backed on the money qucs-
tion. and it is undoubtedly right. The way to de-
feat the Greenbac coalition is to strike

The demand for The TRIBUNEs of Monday
and of Tuesday exhausted the editions, but
fresh supplies have been printed, and we are
now able to fill all orders. Readers will re-
member that Mondays issue contained the
full account Of our discovery of the keys of
the Tilden ciphers, with the arrangement of
the cipher vOcabularies, and all the machinery
necessary for translation ; and that Tuesdays
contained our first complete and consecutive
instalment of the cipher dispatches them
selves.
Mr.. Tilden's agent agrees to give up the
mining books, and as good as says that he'll
never do it again. Thus doth Mr.. Tilden
practise his own precept-RefOrm and Restl-
tuition.
"The American people win never cOndone
"Fraud-never, never, never! True for
you, Mr.. Tilden. And it was peculiarly fit
ting that ii was from the steps of No. 10
Gramercy Park this noble sentiment was
uttered.
Gambettas declaration at Grenoble, that the
Republicans are not hostile TO religion, will 90
far to counteract the effect Of his Romans
speech, which tended greatly to embitter the
pending campaign As the Church has not
suffered under Republican rule, Gambetta can
appeal to acts as well as words in proof of his
sincerity.
p. H. Smith, Of Chicago, il appears, was the
Peri who wanted to get into en- official Para

The effect of THE TRIBUNE's publication OF
the Florida cipher dispatches upon Mr.. III
dcn's political followers may be Feen IN some
of the talks, gwen elsewhere, with leading
Democrats. When ex Congressman Scott LOfu'
who was one of Mr.. Tilden'S candidates for
the Democratic nomination for Governor
in 1876, says that his former leaders
political career is at an end" the case
looks very bad for Mr.. Tllden, even from a
Democratic point of view. Controller Kelly
has been the ex-Governor's bitter opponent,
and would not be slow to believe anything to his
discredit, but Mr. Kelly has been very cautious
heretofore in speaking of this matter. His pres
ent declaration, therefore, that the dispatches
are "terribIy disgraccful," shows that ne
feels all doubt and all necessity for silence
upon the subject to be at an end. There is
also asOoteworthy statement by well-known
Democratic politician that, as he was assured
by the late William Orton, the cipher dis
patches were delivered to Mr.. Tilden in per-
son.

The repetition of blunder which did no
harm is folly; the repetition of a fatal bunder
Is insanity Some of the Republicans OF the
Monroe and Orleans Districts have tiied to
prove themselves politically mad by repeating
the split which last year threw
soundly Republican District into the hands
of the Democracy. Each OF the two
counties has its candidate, and neither
is willing to give him up. Monroe, by force
of numbers, dictates, on the informal ballot,
the choice of its representative, wbereupOn
the Orleans delegates retire from the hall. 1t
is not for us to say whether Monroe should
have yielded or Orleans should have stald,
though the presumption is usually against
those who enter convention and do
not abide with it to the end. But
this much is cleaT-that unless this
breach is closed, there is little prob
ability of the election of Republican Con-
cressman from that District. The interests
of the country, as well as of the party, de-
mand that the quarrel cease at once. This is
a RepubHcan District, and to carry it will be
IN easy Republican gam. And no such acces-
sions are to be despised. The elections already
held this year show a Republican loss thus
far of ten Congressman upon the composition
of tbe present House and tins widening
in the gap to be closed makes harmony,
vigilance and hard work all the more noces-
sary. The next House cannot be carried for
the Republicans by fOOling away Republican
Districts in useless discussions, and we trust
| this discovery may be made in the Monroe
District without further delay.

ic Instruments and the necessary apparatus to
produce cloud He directed Thomas Casey to
remain in the Battery Park with instructions
to throw up cloud Of smoke at regular inter-
walls. Thomas placed himself near the soda
water fountain house. He was at first ordered
by the police to move on. but after explaining to
them the nature OF the experiments. he was
allowed to throw up his clouds q black smoke
uninterruptedly. According to Mr.. Gresham's
theory. in order that. one distant object may be
seen from another, II is necessary that cloud
OF this peculiar black smoke shall overshadow
each.
:, When within mile Of Sandy Hook pier, Mr.
Gresham mounted to the hurricane deck Of tho
steamer Crystal Wave, and. after arranging his
Instruments, threw up dense mass OF black
carboniferous smoke. Although nearly twenty
miles distant. he saw distinctly portion OF tho

The instrument used in photograph ing the
objects seen in the mirage is yet in a very crude

sentation OF phantasm. that word describing
celestial phenomena.
