CHEAP TELEGRAFHY.- American Rapid
Telegraph Company has been incorporated i'll
New York, for the purpose of cheapening the
cost of telegraphy. They propose to imme-
diately construct line of double wires West
and South They claim the ownership OF
American and European patents, machines
and wires capable of transmitting thousand
words a minute, and that the system has been
thoroughly tested during the past four months
over circuits of a thousand miles. They say
that with three wires they can perform the
entire telegraph business of the country east
of the Rocky Mountains, at a maximum rate
of % cents for thirty words night messages,
10 cents for fifty words, and press reports, 10
cents per hundred words. The system is
claimed as an entirely new invention, and not
revival of the automatic scheme discarded
in 1876. x-Mayor Edwin Reed, of Bath,

PORTLAND, Nov. 20.-Detective
Ross having received the necessary
papers from the Governor of Colo
RADIO for the arrest of Ben Wing,
charged with murder in that State,
willstart with his prisoner to-mor-
row. Wing was arrested here by
Ross about two weeks ago. uite
a strong impression prevails that
Wing is not the right man.
Yesterday about dark the British
ships Millwall and City of CASH
mere came into collision at Astoria.
The former drifted into the CASH
mere during strong northeast
wind. The Cashmere shipped her
cables when the Millwall struck
her, which tended to lessen the
shock. In the collision the Mill
wall lost her anchor and the CASH
mere her jib.boom and figurehead.
The anchor will probably be recov.
cred. The sides of both vessels
were badly scraped.

for Kelly taken into the count,
shows how Grants candidacy
would be received in the Empire
State. New York would repudiate
Cpsarism-even the mere skeleton
of C@sarism-with an impressive
ness which would make the exam
pie memorable.
Should Mr.. Seymour adhere to
his often expressed determination
never to re-enter politics, the avail
able Democratic candidate has yet
failed to make his appearance un-
less it should prove to be Mr.. Bay
ard. The Delaware Senator could
probably carry New York; and, If
he should prove equally popular in
Indiana, be could readily be elect
ed to the Presidency. Had it not
been for their unfortunate identifi-
cation with the the greenback
theory, Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio,
and Mr.. Hendricks, of Indiana,
would have been the natural and
proper favorites of the party. But
the next Democratic nominee
must be man who has a reasona-
BILE prospect of carrying New York;
and grave question is. whether
any man who has antagonized
hard money" can do it ?
Gen. Hancock would be highly
available candidate were it not for
one circumstance. Without the
slightest culpability on his part, in
the mere performance of his iron
duty as military commander, he
was unfortunate enough to have
something to do with the details of
the execution of Mrs. Surratt. No
unbiased and fair man can possibly
be made to regard Gen. Hancock as
tiuctured with the slightest blame
in that atrociouD incident of a peo-
Pile excited to the point of madness.
Yet tens of thous. nds of Democrat
ic voters would undoubtedly be in
huenced, in their Presidential
preferences, by the mere fact that
Hancock held a military command
in Washington at that inopportune
time, and was obliged to be cogni-
zant of the details of military ex-
ecution.
On the whole, we are inclined to
think that if Horatio Seymour cam
not be made to reconsider an ap-
parently infiexible resolve the next
Democratic candidate for President
is one of those dark horses " who
puzzle the dreams of the aspiring
politician. The Presidency is often
not so much the reward of. merit as
of availability, and availability is
often not so much the testimony to
q conspicuous and beneficial pub
lie record as of no record at all.

A Monster Elk.

A letter from John C. Upton,
who is now at White Sulphur
Springs, Montana, has this about
the shooting of a monster elk. 1t
says that Upton, during one of Ills
recent excursions after game, shot
and killed an elk measuring ten
feet in height, and, when dressed,
weighed 800 pounds. He says that
the animal was divided out among
the neighbors, each one getting q
piece, after which 'he had enough
left to fill barrel, washtub and a
few molasses kegs, pickled down
