A Philosophers Faith.

In letter addressed to Mr.. Joseph
Patterson of Philadelphia, the last
that the late Professor Henry wrote,
with the exception Of few briefbus-
mess notes, the followering passage
occurs:
In accordance with this scientific
istence of Greater rest? First, it is
one of the truths best established by
experience in my own mind that |
have thinking willing principle
within me, capable Of intellectual ac-
tivity and of moral feeling. Second
it is equally clear to me that you have
Il similar spiritual principle within
yourself, since when | ask you an in
telligent question yon give me an in
tellectual answer. Third, when |
examine operations of nature | find
everywhere through them evidences
Of intellectual arrangements, of con-
trivances to reach definite ends pre-
cisely as | find in the operations of
man; and hence | infer that these
two classes of operations are results of
similar intelligence. Again, in my
own mind find ideas Of right and
wrong, of good and evil. These ideas
then exist in the universe. Further
more, the conceptions of good which
are found among our ideas associated
with evil, can be attributed only to a
being OF infinite perfections like that
which we denominate God" On
the other hand, we are conscious Of
having such evil thoughts and ten
oencies that we cannot associate our
selves with a divine being, who is the
director and the Cover or Of all

out the intercession Of one who may
affiliate himself with us.

The striking operatives in England
are holding meetings at intervals at
which thousands assemble and are
going through the form of voting
down by large majOrties motions in
favor of submission. The struggle
between master and workman has
now became a question ofendurance,
and in such cases submission must
finally be made by the work man.
The Sutferings of the operatives are
already pltiable. But when the re-
duction in wages is conceded, the
difficulty will not be ended. The
English cotton trade has been so re-
duced by the decline in the demand
for her cotton goods, due to the gen.
eral depression in the worlds trade,
the manufacture of such goods in
India, and American competition,
that one third of the capital and
workmen employed in it could be
profitably dispensed with. The Eng
lish cotton goods are already made at
loss, which the proposed reduction
will by no means remedy. The
decay of the trade is certain. Even
with wages reduced to minimum,
with $4,000 weavers in Lancashire
receiving on an average only about
1915 per week, the products Of the
English mills cannot compete in
point of cheapneSS and quality with
American cotton. Depression of
trade, misery among the working
men, and heavy losses to the masters,
appear, unfortunately, to be ineVit-
able. The English workmen must
find labor in some other field, and
capital must flow in some other di-
rection. The importance of this
matter to England may be estimated
by consideration of the fact that in
1876 the cotton exports of England
were in value S33S, 200, 900 or more
than one-thirl Of the value of the
total exports for that year, which
amounted to 81, 200, 100000

NUMBER II.
The New Polar Explora tions.

The subject of Polar explorations
is kept prominently before the pub
lie mind by the discussion of act
ual or proposed expeditions, aiming
at geographical or scientific dlscov-
cry in these unknown regions. The
sailing Of the Eothen is what now
attracts attention in this connection.
The main object of the voyage in the
Arctic sea of this small schooner.
with its crew of twenty-five men, is
the discovery of relics and records Of
the Franklin expedition. If any kind
of profit is to be reasonably expected
from this expedition, it must come
incidentally. Now that it is certain
that Sir John Franklin and his COM
panions are dead, and as. the .proba-
|bilitles are. from the place where the
Franklin records are supposed to be
buried, that the Inflated party was
unable, from its geographical situa-
ton, to leave any written informa-
ton Of special scientific or geo.
graphical value, curiosity and spir-
it of daring may naturally be assum.
ed as the motives of the venture.
Oyer six million dollars have already
been spent in searching for traces Of
Sir John Franklin. But the aYowed
purpose with which vessel enters
the Arctic seas is not the only ele-
ment by which its actual course may
be determined, and the Eothen may
traverse waters and make discover
les which were not originally con-
templated. The chances are that Mr..
Bennett's advance on the North Pole
will not be made this season. The
H0Wgate expedition is the third,
which it is now proposed that Amer
lea shall send northward. The plan
of this expedition seems to be the
WiSest and the most likely to insure
success. The explorers are to diSem-
bark as near the S1st degree as posi-
bic, and then gradually work their
way northWard by land or ice. On
the Newtonian theory they will
reach the Pole over plains of ice on
what is called the "Symmes' Hole"
theory, open water will soon be
found, and lying beyond, over a mil
lion square miles of territory, of
warm and genial climate, clothed
with luXuriant vegetation and the
home of wild animals and water
fowls. Americus Symmes, the son
of the "Symmes' Hole" theorist, has
applied for leave to accompany the
expedition and establish his fathers
theory. 1t may also be mentioned
in this connection, that Sir George
Mares, whose name is connected with
previous Arctic explorations, is COM
missioned by the English govern
meDt to sail southwark into the Ant
arctic ocean, for the purpose of geo.
graphical and scientific discovery

Ohio Republicans.

The Ohio Republican State conven-
ton met at Cincinnati Wednesday of
last week. Hon. VIM. Lawrence be.
ing chosen permanent President.
Judge VIM. White was nominated
for supreme court judge, and Milton
Barnes for secretary of state, both
by acclimation. Geo. Paul was nom
mated for commissioner of public
works. The platform adopted reaf-
firms the principles of the RepubIi-
can party as laid down in the nation
al platform "a debt of gratitude to
the soldiers of the late war is ac
knowledged. The financial question
having been disposed of, further agi-
tation of the matter is deprecated as
being devoid of other than evil re-
,sats he disposition hy conserve
tive men in the south to oppose the
revolutionary methods of northern
democrats is received as a promising
omen, and the republicans of Ohio
cordially greet such citizens of the
south as adhere in good faith to the
terms upon which the issues of the
war were settled. Free speech and
a free ballot are demanded. A tariff
for revenue is advocated, and liberal
appropriations to carry on work on
the government public buildings is
urged as release for depressed Ia
Dor. The revolutionary move
ment" inaugurated under cover of
an investigation, but REALLY an at
tack upon the Presidents tide" is
considered as calculated to excite
distrust and PROSTATE our industries.
President Hayes having been duly
elected, and his title subsequently
settled under the constitution, it cam
not now be questioned, and the Ohio
Republicans recognize in his admin
istration the highest integrity and
patriotism, the most sincere efforts
to promote political purity and har-
mOny, and secure general business
prosperity throughout the whole
county.

The authorities of New York
Chicago, st. Louis, and some other
cities. show by their precautionary
measures that they look to the posSi-
bility of the eoccurrency of strikes this
summer that may develop into
bloody riots if not vigilantly watch
ed. The trouble is not with the
strikers proper, but with the vagrant
tramps, who as was the cause last
summer, seize the opportunity affor-
dcd by an extensive strike to indulge
in incendlarism, pillage and murder.
It is not believed that the working
men Of tie country will allow this
tramp element TO dlscredit them
again in this way, and, in fact, many
of their organizations have already
denounced and repudiated this red
handed gang Of thieves and cut
throats.

An investigation has been made
by the Cincinnati COnn1ercidL into
the probability of the occurrence of
great strikes in Ohio during this
summer. There has been an abun-
dance of rumOrs that formidable
demonstrations have been prepared
for, and that they will be made in
concert as soon as the word is given,
but our c0tempOrary can find no
ground for confidence in these re-
ports. If they are true the evidence
is carefully hidden out of sight, and
the Worllmen and railroad employees
profess to be as well satisfied as the
circumstances Justify. The matter is
Of some importance because rumOrs
Of great labor uprisings in the North
and West have been freely cIrculat-
ed, and have excited some apprehen-
sion. 1t is not the strikes that are
so much dreaded as the participation
of class of idle vagabonds with in
cendiary notions in their heads, and
loose ideas of the rights of property
in their minds. 1t will be remcm-
bered that last summer it was not
the strikers on the railroads who
wrought the destruction of such vast
amounts OF property; that was most
ly done by the vagrants and tramps
who carried the strikes to laWless-
ness, and compelled the strikers at
last TO side with those who, whether
sympathizing with them or not,
stood up for law and order, and assls-
ted in enforcing the laws. We think,
however, that there as is little reason
for fear of lab II riots this year any,
where throughout the country as
there is in Ohio. The experience of
1877 as'snot been thrown away,
either upon the disorderly elements
or the conservators of the peace.
The former had their nerves some
what shaken, and the latter have
found out that there are precautions
worth while taking, and have been
taught By experience how to take
them. Aa outbreak started now in
one Of the principal cities would in
all likelihood never be allowed to
gain the headWay of those of last
July.

Hill, at point about 100 feet NORTH
of the St. Louis line, q vein of orc
about five feet in width, and assay

WHAT A "TIMES" REPORTER
SAW THERE YESTERDAY.

The Sierra Nevada Ore.B0dy As
saying As High As $3.50 PEI
Ton, and Proving Wider and
Richer In Depth-No Important
Change at the Ophir.
Yesterday being the monthly Wis
iting day at the leading north end
mines, q TIMES special reporter
visited the Sierra Nevada and the
Ophir, to note the progress made
during the past month. The double
incline winze of the Sierra Nevada
mine has now attained depth Of
about 80 feet below the 2,l00 level
measuring along the incline-the last
so feet resting on the top or selvage
Of an ore-body, the course or trend
of which is from northwest to south
east. During the past few days the
bottom Of the incline has cut into ORE
bearing material which Is much more
compact and stronger.looking than
that met with higher up, and this,
tsksn IN connection with the fact that
the dip of the qualification seems to
be gradually assuming q horizontal
position, indicates that the ore.body
IL richer and either wider Sr fiatter
In depth. In no place has the ore
been penetrated over two feet, but
wherever cut into it proves to be Of
quite high grade, the assays going
up to $50 per ton. The incline will
be sunk about 70 feet to reach the
22OO. level, where a station will be
opened and drift started through the
ore.
NOTHING NEW AT THE oPHIR.
From the Sierra Nevada the TINES
reporter went to the Ophir. There
has been no development Of conse-
quence at this mine since the 30th
of last month. East crosscut No. 2
is being driven as rapidly As pos
sible, and the winze from the 1000
level is making good progress in the
west wall. As soon as the joint Cali
fornia-Ophir winze from the 1900
level is connected with the 2000.level
three or four crosscuts will be run to
prospect the 800 or 400 feet of virgin
ground between tho two WINES.
About this time the east drift from
the incline on the 2l00.level will get
into ore.

Another Lucky One.

An old man who has been en-
ployed at the Boston mill for nine
or ten years past managed to save
enough from his 50 day wages
to buy 100 shares Of Sierra Nevada
at e4.25. few months ago. Last
Thursday he sold and got $4,000 fol-
his stock-thus clearing over $4,000
by the transaction. If he does mo-
invest again and lose his money
the old gentleman has not only q
home stake, but quite a nice little
sum to secure him against rainy
day besides.
