trial of Rev. w. ii. Uiley, the latter

the meeting adopted the following pre-

much delicate pleasure to the dilatory

R-It may seem strange to many that
the Democratic congress would not
permit the report of the investigations
Of Fisherman Glover to be printed, es-
pecially as he set out with the intention
of finding only Republican frauds. 1t
has long been known, of course, that he
was sadly disappointed as to the amount
of Republican rascality in existence,
and also that he had most wonderful
luck at finding Democrat under every
fraud he followed up, but it was rcas-
onably supposed that the usual Demo-
cratic method Of expurgating their
own party iniquities and manufacturing
Republican frauds would be resorted
to. 1t seems that Glover did prepare a
report after this fashion, and has been
very urgent to have it printed, but his
party friends are afraid to handle the
matter, deeming 1t too risky. One of
the numerous Democratic performances
which he actually did bring to the sur
face, unintentionally of course, was that
of the bright and shining light of Ohio
Democracy, and the pure Senator
Thurman's man Friday, John G..
Thompson, sergeant-at-arms of the
House Of Representatives. Mr. Thomp-
son made all the arrangements for Mr..
Morrison's committee to go to New
Orleans to see if they could find any
Republican frauds there, and made up
the bills for the committees expenses.
These bills show double charges
amounting to s4S37 for money paid to
clerks and stcnographcrs, and Mr.
Thompson charged the government for
double services of the various employees
of the committee and duplicated many
of the expense items. No wonder that
the report of an Investigator who would
find out such things as these was looked
upon with suspicion. Glovcr's only
excuse was that Democratic frauds so
abounded that he could not possibly
help hauling them up by the net full.
No fair minded man could expect the
Democratic party to give publicity to
the work of such blundercr as Glover,
even upon his assurance that he has
properly doctorcd it.

e The indications of great Demo-
cratic frauds in the presidential election
of 1876, given by the New York Times,
noticed in another column, are a suffi-
cient explanation of the old fraud howl.
Tilden could not conceive how his deep
laid plans to secure the presidency
could be overcome save by equal frauds
on the other side, and SO, though no
proof nor trace of fraud on the Repub-
lican side could be discovered, he nat
urally could not condone fraud. Til
denis unsuccessful. plots cost him too
big price for him TO grin cheerfully
over the results.

wA correspondent of the New York
Tribune, who is we'll informed on po-
litical matters, shows that Senator PEN
dleton, of Ohio, is intriguing to secure
the presidency for himself in 1884, and
that the nomination of Ewing for gov
ernor of Ohio is one of the steps on the
way. Pendleton may get the Demo-
cratic nomination, but he must have
forgotten the next census, which will
largely increase the Republican electo-
raj vote and diminish that of the Dem
ocratic states. All indications point to
q Republican administration for an in
definite period.

Another insect pest has appeared, ac-
cording TO the statement of Washing
ton county, N. Y, farmers. They call
II the corn bug, and describe it as q
brown beetle, half an inch or less in
length, with a long, wire-likc proboscis
and wings. A great many fields of corn
came up nicely after being planted, but
soon afterwards the blades withcred and
died and the farmers were at a loss to
know the cause. A second planting re-
suited in the same way, when search
was made about the hills and tho pest
found. 1t seems to bury itself under
the ground and with its proboscis probes
the tender shoots of corn shortly after
they make their appearance above the
ground, and, as result, destroys them.
The "varmint" is entirely now, and tho
farmers are in quandary how to get
rid of it, as paris green and the various
potato bug remedies fail to reach ii.

Lorenzo Baldwin of Whitehall has in
vented an engine which, it is said, will
inaugurate a revolution in the system
of propelling canal boats. He proposes
to have blade In the stern of the boat
which shall be worked so as to give il
q motion like that of sculling with a
single oar in the stern of the boat. IL
differs from q screw propeller in that IL
has only one blade and does not revolyc
entirely, but moves about like the soul
ler's single oar. IL has been found TO
work admirably on models and even in
small boats. The engine, which Is of
20 horse power, will be so arranged
that the man at the wheel can start Il,
reverse 1t, or stop 1t altogether as In
his judgment occasion requires. The
new apparatus will be completed be-
fore September J..

Intelligent men never form q conclu-

EXTRAORDINARY SCENES.

crowd of anxious people at the plague

the first chance to get away. The Mem
phians say the people clamor with one
with most strength and determination
are those who run over multitudes of
more timid people and escape. People
have crowded about the depot twenty
four hours before being able TO get on
a train. Overcome with heat and IA
tigue, men, women and children sleep
closely huddled together, until aroused
and told that the hour of liberation is
at hand. Instead of waiting tor trains
to carry them to the transfer station
many 60 out in all sorts of conveyances
and by that means often take the places
of those who have been deprived of the
possibility of an early escape to q more
healthy climate. FESTIVE and combat
i've under these circumstances, men grow
desperate and fight like tigers. Revol.
vcrs are drawn In the most savage de-
termination, and bloodshcd is only pre-
vented by the Interference of strong
guard. People are so closely sandwich
ed in the trains that the heat becomes
intolerable. Passengers get FESTIVE and
almost any one who makes it known
can be easily accommodated to knock
down. The general scramble for seats
continues all along the various lines
until the conductor gets rid of the jam
by dropping them here, there and every
where.
