The Trip or the Tally Ho.

The journey Of the members Of the Coach
ing Club to and from the good city of Phila-
delphia was in every sense very great sue
cess. On the return trip yesterday the
thousands of persons who turned out at
every point last Saturday to cheer the merry
travellers on their way reappeared to give
them another welcome and goodby. Going
and coming it was one magnificent ovation.
It is probably more than forty years since
the old stage coach rumbled along these
Jersey and Pennsylvania roads, and it is
very certain that, except in the way
Of amusement, the conveyance of the
olden time will never be restored there
or anywhere else. That the old dis
carded system Of travel is capable
Of being converted into a health
full, rational amusement is the chief value
of the trip that has been 80 successfully ac-
complished by the gentlemen Of the Coach
ing Club. Riding and driving are among
the manifest Of amusements, and as such
ought to be encouraged in every way posi-
BILE. The amusements of o nation WELD o
most important influence on the formation
of the character Of its people. No country
whose sports we're Of o low order has ever
made an important figure in history, and it is
safe to shy that none ever will. The amuse-
ments Of people are, In fact, gauge Of its
civilization. Where they are, as in old Rome,
fierce, barbarous, vicious, the people are
cruel. bloodthirsty, revengeful. The Span
ish bull fight colors the whole national life
of Spain. One Of Englands greatest states
men saw in the English shooting moors and
hunting fields the training schools that
enabled her officers to win victories under
Marlborough and Wellington. During the
past ten or fifteen years our outdoor amusc-
ments have been very much elevated in
tone and character. Coaching, the latest
addition to their number, is one OF the most
fascinating and picturesque Of them all.

Recorder Hackett has OPPORTUNITY d.
rected the attention Of the Grand Jury OF
the Court Of General Sessions to the exist
ence of nuisances arising from bone boiling,
fat rendering and other offensive smells In
various parts OF the city, and to the illegal
encroachments upon and distractions to
the streets. roads and public places in the
form of booths, stands and other encum-
ORANGES. The law requires the Board OF
Health to put stop to the former evil, and
the law makes it the duty Of the Common
Council to prevent the latter. The Board
Health, however shuts its eyes and closes
its nose to the vile odors that make
some localities uncomfortable and imperil
the public health, while the Board Of
Aldermen, in the teeth Of the law, license
or authorize the misuse OF the public thor
oughlares, which it is their duty to prevent.
The Recorder instructs the Grand Jury to
inquire thoroughly into these matters and
to indict any public officers who may be
found to neglect the duties imposed upon
them by law. The action Of the Aldermen
in illegally permitting the use Of the streets
for booths and stands by those who can
bring sufficient influence to bear to CON-
mand their favor has already been brought
to the Mayors notice; but it is to be hoped
that the Grand Jury will take the matter in
hand and adopt measures that will effec-
tually put stop to the abuse.

Mr.. Abram S. Hewitt's Army Appropria-
ton bill is now ready for submission to the
Committee Of Ways and Means. 1t has evil
IDENTIFY been carefully framed and is based
on principle which may we'll appear just
and expedient to a civilian. Mr.. Hewitt
finds that there are in the army organization
as many regiments as would, if filled up.
raise the standard to forty thousand men.
This he considers too high, his theory being
that the standing army now, in time of
peace ought to be modelled on that of 1860,
making allowance only for the increase
Of population. 10 maintain sufficient
number Of regiments for q force
Of forty thousand men, when the stand
ard is to be only twenty or twenty
five thousand, seems to Mr.. Hewitt need
less waste Of money on epaulettes and side
arms, SO he proposes to sweep away four
teen regiments out Of the forty now exist
ing, to fill up the remaining twenty-six by
consolidation and recruiting, and to muster
out Of the service all superfuous officers.
He sugar-coats the pill thus administered
to the retired officers by proposing to be-
stow on them gift of from one to four
years pay and allowances, according to
their length Of service, and seeks further to
reconcile them to what would be a decided
breach of faith on the part of the govern
ment by making reduction of twenty per
cent on the pay Of their comrades who re.
main in the service.
Mr.. Hewitts bill has neither fairness nor
expediency to recommend it to favor. It is
not Just TO those who have fitted themselves
for the military service Of the country TO
turn them adrift by Wholesale, and it is not
wise to drive from the army officers whose
education has been q considerable cost to
the nation. If we are to have an army of
only twenty-five thousand men-a mere
military bagatelle--it will be better to main
tain forty or fifty skeleton regiments than
half that number Of full regiments. We
shall then have o valuable nucleus
for q large force in case of an
emergency, since raw recruits, merged in q
regiment half filed with trained men and
we'll Differed, will speedily become efficient
soldiers. The present number of regiments
ought not to be reduced, and certainly the
pay of army officers is by no means too lib
eral. Besides, Mr.. Hewitt's bill does not
hold out very promising prospect of real
economy. Tho payments to be made to re-
tired officers would sweep away more than
the savings for the next two or three years,
and by that time moro liberal policy in
regard to the military service of the country
will probably prevail.

very uncommon for detectives hereabouts =
spirit of intelligent devotion to their
Peace or War.

Things. said by exalted personages to be
given out to the world are apt to be moro
distinguished for some other peculiarly
than that OF strict accuracy; consequently
the fact that the Empress of Russia said on
Sunday that ''peace was assured" does not
put aside altogether the probability OF
war. Even Baron Jomini's repetition OF
the statement may leave it doubtful.
Baron Jomini should know undoubtedly
the precise course and tenor of the negotia-
tions of his government with England. for,
since the recent illness of Prince Gortscha-
koff, the conduct of these negotiations has
been in his hands. 1t is not consistent
with the spirit OF Russian diplomacy for
officials to declare the result of great nego-
tiations while these are actually on foot, and
that the negotiation with England has yet
reached no point that can be called final is
evident from the rcticencein London. 1t is,
however, not easy to see what purpose there
could be in giving out to the Russian
capital information likely to encourage
hopes, unless there was good basis OF fact
beneath it. We may regard these state
ments, therefore, as very encouraging,
made as they must have been, in the full
knowledge that some concessions or admis-
sions had been reached on ono side or the
other, in view Of which hostile attitude
could not be maintained. If an under
standing with England has been reached
the case for Russia will become very simple
at the Turkish capital. and the Russian
army will leave the pachas of that now
agitated city to fight out between them
selves that battle for supremacy which has
always been characteristic of Moslem
States. Osman Pacha, through the prestige
that his name has with the army, will be-
come in that case practically the dictator
of the Padishah's policy, and will maintain
the existing Sultan against all plots to de-
throne him

1t is scarcely possible to withhold sympa-
thy altogether from the miners on strike in
Illinois when we hear only their side Of tho
story Of their grievances. Labor such as is
done in coal mines could not DO made ac-
coptablo to the mass of men by any rate Of
wages; and those whose hard fortune it is
to be unable to live otherwise than by such
labor should OF least be fairly paid the
prices they contract for. But in the issue
made by these strikers it is alleged on their
part that while the rate of pay-a cent and
cent and a half bushels ruinously
low, they have to pay for oil their own
supplies, as oil, tools and powder, and
are cheated in tho measurement Of the coal.
II u strike were likely to afford them q rem
edy they certainly would be justified in
striking, but it does not promise well, and
their condition at tho end Of their endeavor
will only be the worse for their loss Of time.
There is, no doubt, another side to the story,
but it will scarcely be inquired into, for the
public will not wait to hear it, but will con-
denim, without even such reasons as ii might
give, the attitude Of workmen who affiliate
with the comm unistic schemors who seem
to have somewhat alarmed the Western com.
munitics by their warliko preparations.

Good Detectives.

The skill and success with which the
secret Of the Erie basin murder was I'M
ravelled and the murderer hunted down is
a feather in the cap of the Brooklyn police.
AT the outset this appeared to be IN utterly
track.ess casea case with which it did not
seem possible to connect any individual or
set OF individuals But the keen pursuit
Of clew derived from tho mate
rial with which the dead body
had been sent to the bottom soon
made il possible to sketch the nature
OF the event in imagination and the fact
was ascertained that the very iron fastened
to the body had been the cause of quarrel
between the captain of schooner and q
sailor IN his employ. 1t was a case, there
fore, in which murder spoke by the "most
miraculous organ" of an old mass of junk.
In every stage of this case the Brooklyn de-
tectives appear to have worked in spirit
