The Old Man Of the Sea.

There is an evident disposition on the part of
western and southern democratic papers to
kick against the denomination of Tilden, but the
difficulties in the way OF dSlOdging him are i'm
mense. Aside from his sentimental claim to re-
nomination as the victim Of So fraud, he makes
the practical point that the democrats must
carry New York to succeed In 1850, and that he
Is the only man who can ensure victory In that
state. The western idea is that the democracy
can do without New York on pinch, by carry
Ing the southern states solid, securing lbs cleo
toral votes of the 1S5 necessary to choice, ana
leaving but Al votes to be obtained In the north
which it is held can be supplied by Indiana Qo),
Ohio (22), and Michigan (1D, footlng up Is.
The Tflden men scout the idea that the demo-
Gratis can carry Ohio this year or the next
or that Michigan can be carried On soft money
platform by a fusion Of democrats and green
hackers. The Tflden logic then comes back
1rresistably to the conclusion that the forty
eastern states; and those embraced In the TIL
den plan are New York (a5), New Jersey (9),
and Connecticut (6); leaving three votes to
spare Or with New York and Indiana, the
same result would be reached without the votes
of New jersey and Connecticut The Ttlden
figuring to the effect that the democrats will
need New York In 1S5O seems to be sound. but
there will probably be difference OF opinion as
to whether he Is the only man who can carry it
for them. Tammany Hall and John Kelly may
be counted upon to dissent forcibly, but 1t re-
mains to be seen whether they can make any
more head against him now than they did at
st. Louis in the last nominating convention. So
far he seems to hold his grip on the shoulders
OF the party with all the tenacity Of Sindbad'S
Old Man OF the Sea.

In the boat race on the Tyne to-day Hanlan,
the Canadian rover, seems to have had an easy
triumph over his English competitor, Hawdon.
This makes the twenty third victory achieved
by Hanlan. The Britons will doubtless solace
themselves In their defeat over the fact that the
victor Is, after all, fellow subject Of the same
sovereign, just as the defeat Of their race horses
by Parole was tempered by the knowledge that
the American racer was sired by an English
horse; but In both cases the result shows the
fallacy of the theory that there is any thing in
the climate of America to deteriorate the phys
lone of men or animals

The superintendent of the New York public
schools turns out to be spiritualist This, OF
course, is matter of no especial concern to
New Workers and the rest of mankind, but he
has published book OF spiritual communica-
lions, In which violence Is done to the hard
earned regulations OF Moses, Shakespeare, Mil
ton and other distinguished persons of the
past. 1t Is too late In the day to break down
the character of the patriarchs or destroy the
literary fame Of great writer's by producing let
tiers of recent date bearing their signatures,
but the post mortem SANDER should be resented.
SO New Workers are inquIring whether a man
who is responsible for the publication Of these
absurd communications, and who Is so consti-
tuted as to believe that they emanate from the
tnustrious dead, Is the most suitable man to
superintend the instruction of children.

The suggestion that the long distance walkers
compete in treadmills, OF special device, which
shall register the number and the length of the
strides taken In given time, is good one from
unitarian standpoint. 1t will be a happy day
for the manufacturer when he can thus utilize,
tnexpensively, the muscular force Of the thou
sands OF would-be-l long distance pedestrians
while gratifying their spirit OF rivalry, and at
the same time amuse the public who would, of
course, insist on paying an admission fee for
the privilege OF seeing so novel performance.
Is 1t possible that the new force which will
supersede steam is to be found In mans muscles
OF locomotion inspired with superhuman effec-
tiveness as motive power by the allurements
OF the Ashley belt?

Frederick Douglass, whose broad, thoughtful
consideration of questions affecting his race
has given him national reputation for sa-
gacity and practical good sense, In a lecture
delivered in Baltimore last night expressed a
decided opinion against the negro exodus to the
north. He would be glad, he said, to relieve
their distress, but did not believe In their leav-
ing their homes. He thought great harm had
been done to them by schemes Of emigration.
He said In this connection:
Fifty years ago it was to Hayti, new land
OF Canaan, where grapes were large, and ba-
nanas larger, and those who went were glad to
get back. Then came along another paradise
Tor the negro-Jamaica-hew was asked to eman-
cipate and go, and many OF them actually sold
missed land. What became of them7 Most OF
them died from starvation. That was IS years
ago. During the war there was the cry In
washington for the colored population to go
ague. Laughter.l Possession Is nine points
OF the law. We have possession of land down
south. And then there Is power In being
TO the manor born. 1t was colored muscle
that titled the SOIL felled the timber and drained
the marshes, and they have just men all over
the country sympath1Zing with them There is
no use In coming north when they will be con-
Monted Dy Germans, lrshmen and Cinnamon.
Stay at home, demand fair wages from the .sOld
master class" Capital, both at the north or
south, tries to get labor at the lowest possible
price. Emptying 40 900 people, without money,
In rags, up north will enable our enemies to
say: ''Tbese are the people they wish to raise
over the heads OF the southern people. We are
handing around the hat TO help them on, and
IN less than year we win be handing around
the hat TO help them back
The citizens of California will vote on the

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Considerable excitement was created
in this place Monday afternoon, upon
the announcement that Frederick
Mum had met with fatal accident.
The facts, as near as we could learn
from rumOr, and from actual occur
rences, are about as follows:
Mr.. Mum went to Mantua Station,
in the morning to mill and to contract
some produce, intending to return to
his home about noon. On his return
he stopped at Fears watering tank, on
the brow of short but steephil about
one-half mile south of Mud-mill. He
was seen to get out, by Mr.. Fears little
girl. A short time after that he was
discovered about sixty PAGES north of
the watering place, dead. It is sup
posed that in attempting to get into the
wagon he fell and his feet caught
somewhere about the wagon, as he was
dragged from the starting point to
where he was found. His head and
face were terribly mangled, one ear
was cut or torn of, and the back of the
skull was broken, there were several
slight bruises about the body, legs and
arms. The team ran but q short dis.
tance before they cleared from the
wagon.
The deceased was fifty-fve years of
age, was native of this place, and
as boy and man. was noted for his in
dustry and thrift. and although con-
tending for several years against ill
health and adverse circumstances, had
gathered handsome competence, and
was looking forward to rejuvenated
health and quiet and peaceful old
age. The last winter had been pecu-
liarly severe with him, as with others
who are affected with lung difficulties.
but he seemed to be rapidly recovering
and, on the morning mentioned, was
feeling more his former ambition, and
declined the offer of his son to accom-
pany him, who thought his father too
feeble to perform the trip without some
assistance. He leaves q wife and three
children, who. have the respect and
sympathy of the whole circle of their
acquaintances.

last Monday with not enough opposi-
ton to make the contest interesting.
