The trade OF America Is extending
to all parts Of the world. As evidence
OF this fact figures show that the ex-
portations OF cotton goods from New
York since the beginning of this year
have reached 53.4s6 packages. which
is an increase of 3S per cent. over the
amount shipped In the same time last
year, and more than ten times az
much as the corresponding figures
for 1879. The shipments from Bos-
ton during the meperiod have been
6,46S packages against 1887 last year
The largest shipments from New
York to any single port are to Lon
don, and the Eext largest to Africa
which has heretofore been regarded
as q British market.

We send out this wee K. a supple
ment containing the leading or most
important cipher dispatches sent out
and received by the Democratic lead
ers, while attempting to procure the
Presidency for Mr.. Tilden. These
dispatch es were translated and pub
lished In the New York Tribune and
are acknowledged by the men who
sent and received them to be sub
stantially correct. No man can read
them without being convinced that
an attempt was made to secure the
Presidency for Tilden by means OF
money. Mr.. Tilden denies any knowl-
edge OF them, although they were
sent and received by his nephew. who
was his private Secretary, and resided
10 the same house with him. But
whether Mr.. Tilden or the Democratic
party was to furnish the money TO
pay for electoral votes makes little
difference. That the party or Mr..
Tilden or both were guilty Of the
crime will be apparent to all who
read these dispatches, the genuine
ness OF which Democrats acknowl-
edge.

The Washington correspondent OF
the Inter Ocean thus describes the
passage between Senators Conkling
and Voorhees,. on Friday: VOORHEES,
walked up Conkling who laid the tall
vegetable CT the Wabash out cold.
Voorhees, attempted to TO arraign
Conkling for calling his own constitu-
ents thugs and thieves epithets
Conkling applied to Tammany Hall
in late speech. Conkling let him
go on, and appeared as though he
was entirely discomfitted by Voor-
hees' vigorous attack. This encour-
aged him, and he went further, charg-
ing that, with its boasted eminence,
the Empire State, under Republican
rule, could nor protect itself. but had
to call upon the Feeeral power. Conk-
ling let Voorhees, go just as far as he
could, and did not interrupt or other
wise interfere with him, but when the
Tall Sycamore had finished and taken
his seat, Conkling arose and, In a ten
minute speech. gave Voorhees, a
drubbing that he will never forget.
Conkling showed considerable feel
ing, and spoke with unusual free.
and, after he had destroyed Voorhees,,
went over the history Of election
frauds in New York In such q way
that the Democrats are regretting
that Voorhees, brought the subjec:
up. After he concluded there was a
silence OF some moments, in expect
sncy that Voorhees, would reply, but
he merely yielded to Herman, saying
that he would reply at some other
time. But 1t is safe to say that he
will not fool around Conkling any
more"

Those celebrated astrolOgers, who

on this mundane sphere to the influ-

The Indianapolis Journal charges
that the trustees OF the State benev-
olent institu ions have violated their
oath Of Office in the appointment Of
VIM. Glenn, a dentist Of Muncie, Ind,
as Superintendent Of the institution
for the education Of the deaf and
dumb. The law says, that persons
appointed to superintend shall be
skilled and qualified by education
and practice to take charge Of the
Institution for which he is appointed,
and the Journal says the trustees
knew that Glenn was not qualified
either by education" or practice"
to perform the duties OF the position,
and that Governor Hendricks and
other leading Democrats OF the State
have instigated and aided this in
famous appointment, simply to re-
ward Glenn for his services In the

An int .lligent correspondent OF the
Chicago Tribune, who went South
for the purpose OF investigating the
extent and effect OF the Southern en-
igration movement, says: "The first
effect OF the exodus, 80 far as it has
been carried on, has been to reduce
rents and the price OF provisions ma
terially. The next effect has been to
produce a combination OF planters
pledged to suppress bulldozing. The
third effect has been to raise gen.
eral demand for the repeal OF the
vendors lein law" 1t Is at once ap-
parent that the exodus is bringing
Southern men to their senses faster
than Congressional legislation ever
has, and IL the exodus should stop
now the colored people who remain
will be permanently situated.

The Detroit Ne,cs. an independent

as the sides Of the shield as seen by
politicians, IN regard to the army ap-
preparation bill: The Democratic
position from the Republican stand
ing point: @As the President has
seen 1T to veto the bill to permit
fraud and violence at the polls, there.
fore the army should be deprived OF
Its pay, the army must be disbanded.
The other side of the shield, as seen
by Democratic eyes: @Since the
President has refused to accept an
army unless he shall be permitted to
use It to destroy a free ballot and
control elections, let him 60 without
It." The shield On the edge. as seen
from the White House: Il never
used the army at the polls. and don't
ever intend to, as tho law forbids II
already. Therefore there is no need
OF this bill to prevent It. Besides II
may be necessary for me to look az
ter Congressional elections, and ]

the Deputy at Fort McDermit, was
soldier, having just enlisted under the
name of John De We're. Fred re-
ports that he was treated most cour-

that upon learning his mission the CON-

sation, saying he wanted no such char
acters in his command.

The Sheriff struck his tral early Satur-

hours in the saddle, but the Mexican,
who was wel mounted, had too great a

satisfied that they are on the wrong
scent. There is little probability, how
ever, bat that the fugitive is Lopez,

captuse. He is desperate man, and
mounted on one of the best horses in
