ipnatiOn Of DE-. Kesnbie.
To-day being the occasion Of the Pc
risdical visit and inspection by the
Levy Court, Of the county almshouss,
there was a general movement ON the
part OF these officers towards the above
buildings. The trustees were also in
attendance together with Senators
Cooch and Rust Of the Gsnsral Assem-.
bly,. After short conjoint meeting,
At which very little business was trans
acted, the members were taken through
the buildings. Cleanliness 10 . high
degree prevailed In the various depart
ments and the inmates appeared happy
and contented.
Everything In and around the
grounds gave evidence Of the existence
of q most commendable humanitarian
management, wise management that
seem to take pleasure in securing from
existing circumstances the utmost ben
eHcial effect. The Levy Court express
ed itself as being more than pleased
with the condition Of the institution.
At q meeting Of the Trustees Of the
Poor, the following report was submit
ted by Superintendent Barlow.
At this date there are in the poor
department, l42 whites, II males SO
females and 13 children Also ~ colOr-
ed, is Of whom are males, 10 females
and 3 children. In the insane depart
ment there are 4G whites--22 males
and "a females; and 8 colored, three OF
whom are male and five female. Total
number OF inmates 249.
Aside from the submission OF this re-
port the most important transaction
was the resignation Of DR.. II. c. Kem-
bic, the resident physician. 1t was
accepted, but his successor was not
then settled upon.

they would have enough more OF IL to COM

or the mischief which would result from
the adoption Of silver us the currency OF the
country, whenever commercial crisis
should arise requiring us to borrow money
abroad, 1t Ia perhaps premature TO speak, IN
view of the large balance OF trade now In
our favor, and the likelihood OF its continu-
Ing to be In our favor for some time TO come
Yet. II ever a pinch should occur, such as we
have had In times gone by, our silver cur
rency would be as efIeotual an obstacle to
getting relief as our greenback currency

In 1873, but only gold, which would be, as 1t
was in 1873, too costly for us 20 make use Of
and we should have TO extricate ourselves
the best way we could.
These are the principal objections to the
WARNER Silver bill, and to all measures
like 1t aiming at the unlimited issue Of sill
yer legal-tender dollars. They are the Same
as those which we made to the Silver bill
which became law year ago, but which
has so far been rendered imperative. The
demonetization Of gold and the substitution
OF silver for II would not paralyze industry,
nor rob the workngman, nor produce uni
versal financial ruin; but, on the other
hand, 1t would work injustice to vested
interests, considerably increase the friction
nndexpense Of business, and do good to no
one but gambling spectators in land and i'm
merchandise, who desire to get out OF debt
at a cheaper rate than they can at present.

The Republican Persecution of Mr.. Tiid.n.


One OF the most contemplate features OF the
Repuhlicnn persecution OF Samuel J. Tildcn is
that suit by the Government 20 collect N alleged
income tax iue, In 1875. during the heat Oi the
campaign Mr.. Itlden WAS singled out OF over
ten thousand New Workers who years before.
let the Revenue Assessor compute their income
tax from their books AMI then paid the amount
designated. The tax was paid In this way by
hundreds OF thousands OF taxpayers through
the country. and the method Was adludged
Legitimate.
The suit was brought TO recover mn nmount
Of income alleged to he withheld hy Tllen.
For three years the caSe has boon IN the hands
OF the District Attorney. who refuses to allow IL
T. 90 To- trul because he H. perfectly aware that
TIlden will be cleared OF the charge, which was
only publicly made 70 prejudice voters against
hr Tilden. Under Hayes the suit has been
kept dangling, anl that incarnHte fraud has
taken special pleasure in Keeping II rs cam
paign material against the man whom he
cheated The GoVernment dare not push tho
suit, and have thereby heaprd damnution on
themselves.
Tho other piece OF political persecution Of
Mr. Tiden was the suit against him in which
Nc was charged by some political scOundrels
with suppressing evidence " tho amount OF
his income, through his attorney by secreting
certain books ot a Michigan MINING, company
IN which he was interested, That trial has come
OF. and Mr.. Heaiy. Tildcn's attorney, who WAS
the defendant IN the cuse. was acquitted OF nll
wrong intent. the Judge ruling that there was
no moral turptude In the cnsc. Both suits
were based on the partisan malignnncy md de-
testtble dishonesty OF the Republican leaders,
who do not dare night their opponents In any
open and honest manner
When tho income-tax suit was Arst brought
against Mr.. Tilden the Nrtr York Tribune nd
inittei TINT Wendell Phillips Gov Rice Of Mas
sachusrtts. aud "a large number oi Republican
Statesmen left the Assessors to fix the tax NJ
Mr.. Tldcn did, hut the Tribune suited that these
gentlemcn were not candidates for the Presi-
dency. Rice. Phillips, and the others have
never been disturbed by the hrelings Of the
Department Of Justice and will not be.
Hayes himself deliberately evaded the income
