The steamer Magenta, from Peekskill for
New York, blew out her steam chimney on
Saturday morning while endeaYoring to
reach the landing at Yonkers before rival
boat. The whole front Of the upper works
was torn away, the cabins filed with steam,
aud the floor strewn with dead, dying, and
scalded passengers. Albert Bunnels and
Mr. Wright were killed; Mr. Wright,
Thomas NJ. Brnndage, and Ar. Fleming
were severely scalded, and about dozen
others slightly. A newsboy was blown
overheard and drowned.
John Wallace, the fiend who was arrested
for the murder Of bis brothers wife, child,
and niece, near Littleton, West Va, on
Wednesday last, and who subsequently con-
fessed to having committed the deed, was
early Sunday morning taken in charge by Il
party Of fifteen men, who, after placing a
rope around his neck, dragged him dis
lance OF 4 mile and half and hung him on
an applc-tree. Violence OF this character is
always to be depiored, but the peculiar afro
city OF bis crime was such as to leave no
sympathy for his sudden ending. BaLti-

HOW THE ROBBERY WAS COMMITTED.


How the robbery was committed is pro-
badly known to most Of the readers OF the
Dispatch. Mr.. James II. Young, who was
robbed, is the trustee OF the estate Of his
late father, Henry Young, who was man
of wealth, and invested his money largely
in southern securities. On the morning OF
the Cd Of January he went to the New York
Safe-Deposit Company's Office and drew out
some $4,000 in Alabama State bonds from
which to cut the coupons, the interest be-
ing payable on the 1st OF January. On re-
turning to his Office lie placed these
bonds on q desk in the front OF his
Office, which is upstairs. A stranger
came in and asked some questions, and
was referred 10 another Office for the in
formation: be wanted. Mr.. Young soon
after left 10 get lunch, leaving the bonds on
the table in the care OF his clerk, and bis
two safes unlocked. Very soon the clerk
was called down to the street TO see sick
person in q carriage on some business Of.
Importance to MIR. Young. He locked the
door when he went out, and was Kept some
time in conversation with, the invalid in the
carriage. When be returned to bis office
he found the door broken open, the Ala.

rifed, and the tenants OF the adj

excitement. Some Of them had been fas>
tened in their-own rooms white the robbery
was bein. committed. The robbers were
sufficiently seen to be described, aud the
description led to their being traced and
shadowed until finally they were arrested in

New-York tribune., 1878-05-28
D0 TUEy MEAN RETOLrII0NP

There is no need to get excited over the
present political outlook and the possibility
Of an attempt at revolution. The Tribune
Is very far from desiring TO excite groundlcss
apuchcnsions or unnecessary alarm. But 1t
is quite as possible to err in the opposite
as in this direction, by closing our
ewes TO the iucxOrablc logic of events.
1t NAV be that the calm and serene people
who laugh at the absurdity Of the idea that
revolutionary purposes are seriously enter
tanned by anybody Ofany consequence, are rs lar
wrong, in their confident sense OF security, as
the nervous persons who excite their mirth by
what seem to be causclcss and visionary fears.
II is good thing to have faith in the people and
in tbc Government; in the loyalty OF one and the
strength and stability OF the other; and 10 cstl-
mate at thcirpropcr weight and value the vapor-
ings and threats of unscrupuiou5 politicians
and disrcputable newspapers But It Is well
to remember, also, that we have had one at
TEMPT at revolution, and that it burst upon us
at time when many public men, equally sa-
gacious and far-sightcd with those who are
contemplating the present aspect 0i Affairs
with such serenity, were equally confident
that the danger then talked Of was imagl-
nary. and that no real peril existed.
We sbould be weak indeed if the experience
of those costly years from 1861 to 1860 had
left us exposed to the constant terror OF its
repetition We have shown already, 10y our
restoration to full citizenship Of those who
undertook that enterprise, the courage Of con-
Gdcncc coupled with the magnanlmlty OF Tree,
fuI pardon. But we should show greater
weakness did we forget the experience or
fail to profit III a sensible, reasonable
way by its lessons. Let us remember, III the
midst of our confidence in the people and the
Government, that revolution is not 50 lmposs-
bile as il seemed twenty years ago. Nor Is 1t
en- easy to LAUGH down those who consider the
revolutionary tendencies Of the Congressional
r,aiority matter for serious consideration. In
1860 we ONLY knew from the history OF other
nations the antcccdent conditions OF rcvolu-
tiops: we know them now from our own 1t
i, not the impulse Of timIdity, but the die
tate of prudence, to compare those conditions

Treasury is required to reissue notes. although
they are deprecated, the depreciation must
continue. the presentation OF notes Tor redeilp-
ton must become more rapid, and the Secre-
fary will be compelled either to evade the

well that a law should be evaded. lhe better
way would be to give the Secretary discretion
