NEW YORK, Aug 23-The World prints
an interview with Tilden. in which he
denies most of the statements made by
Cyrus W Field. He says there was no
agreement as to the time when he
should sell his elevated railroad stock.
He denounces the management Of the
company, and says that Field drove
him away by indulging in financial
fireworks.
The HeraiTs special from Washington
says the State Department today re-
ceived advices from our Ministers at
Bolivis. Chile aud Peru, acknowledging
the receipt of the Instructions OF the
Department to tender the friendly offices
of the Government of tue United States
to those nations now engaged in war. .
with view of bringing about settle
msnt Of the causes which had led to the
unhappy struggle. From our represen.
tstives the gratifying information comes
that. while no official action has been
taken, it is understood that an informal
conference had already been held. and
that the proposition was received kindly
and entertained not unfavorably. There
is therefore a reasonable assurance that
the pending difficulties may be termin-
ated by the mediation of the United
States; but what form the arbitration
will take is not yet known.
Aug 22d-Much interest is attached
to case which comes before our courts
today. involving the question of the
right Of trustees OF cemeteries controlled
by the Catholic Church to prevent the
interment therein of those who in their
lifetime belonged TO secret societies.
This authorities Of Calvary Cemetery
have refused burial in consecrated
ground to the body of Dennis Coppers,
who. when living. owned a lot there,
and, though . commitment Of the
Episcopal Church. wished to be buried
beside his wife and other kindred in.
TERED in Calvary. The authorities e.
fused burial and ordered the corpse to
Be removed from the receiving vault.
Deceased's brothers now move for a
temporary Injunction restraining the
authorities from removing the body.
Their refusal to bury Is based on the
ground that he vas Mason.

We see that the Portland Staadard,
Nc'o Norihreat and other Oregon papers
continue to advertise the recipe of Rev
Jo' I lnman. of New York city. This
is strange on their pant, after the wide
spread publication Of the fact that the
Rev Joseph is nonentity. a myth, a
blk OF the imagination, possessing nei-
ther shadow, substance nor abode. He
is published as fraud by the Poatoflice
Department. which does not allow the
sending Of money through the mails to
his address. Two men represent the
aforesaid Reverend" at his advertised
place OF business. and they have swim
died the people Of tho country out Of
hundreds Of thousands of dollars by
such advertisements as those now to be
seen in the papers of Oregon. His
recipe is sent free of charge" but it is
accompanied by recommendations Of
remedies to be obtained ut the same
place from which the recipe comes. the
cost of which is usually from two to
five dollars. The medicines are sent,
but they are said to be of Q noxious
character. more hurtful than good. The
New York Sun exposed the Iumau fraud
ut length few months ago. and CD the
strength of that expose tho action of the
postal authorities above referred to was
taken.

INDUSTRY 4 BLESSING TO YOUNG MEN

The most common cause Of the ruin
Of young men nowadays is the delusion
iustilled into them, and fondly Rugged,
that they are clevcrer than others.
They are not Of the common herd. but
Of something better, and the common
herd" must directly or otherwise fur
nish them their future living. That is
about the idea. whether they put it so
or not, and they endeavor by every
means in their power to live up to it.
As for working. or doing anything
really useful. nothing is further from
their thoughts. They are adapted by
nature to pursue the higher walks Of
life, and they do not intend to interfere
with her designs They walk the
streets. lean against the corners. smoke
cigars. talk nonsense and live on their
parents or friends. Occasionally one
strikes an easy job, suited to his light
capacity and indolent habits, with big
pay attached, aud he is then o very lord
in his own conceit With the great
majority, however, their time never
comes. They arc gradually driven to
the conclusion that some mistake has
been made; that they have not had
equal opportunity with former less fs-
vored companions who, by hard Knocks
and slow stages, have risen high in the
worlds esteem aud that their whole
life has been. from some cause which
they do not understand, failure. They
are burden TO their frier is and Of no
good to themselves, and. discovering it.
when too late for remedy. they are
driven into the private ranks Of the
army, into mental positions, into gam
bling dens or upon the high road. This
is hard picture. but it is one with .
good deal of truth. Parents have upon
them great responsibility, and if they
are derclict in their duty rs parents
they may expect bitterly to rue it in
after life. Happily for many they are
not permitted to know OF their chill
dren's shortcomings, the multitude and
enormity Of which would cause their
days to end in sorrow. Habits of in
dustry are better inheritance for ones
children than talent and gold.

Predictions About 1880 and 1887.

In pamphlet recently published, the
author, Prof. Grimmer, asserts:
From 1880 to 1887 will he one univer-
sal carnival of death. Asia will be de
populated, Europe nearly so. and Amer
lea will lose fifteen millions Of her people.
Besides plaques we are to have storms
and tidal waves, mountains are to toss
their heads through choicest valleys.
navisators will be lost by the thousands
owing to the capricious detlextures ofthe
magnetic needle, and islands will appear
and disappear in mid-ocean. All the
beasts, birds and fishes will be diseased:
famine and civil strife will destroy most
# the human beings left alive by the
plague: and, finally two years of fire
1885 to iSS1-wil rage in fury in every
part of the globe. In 1887 the Star of
Bethlehem" will appear i'll ''Casstopia' S
Chair, the immediate results being uni
versal war and portentiouS floods and
shipwreclls. North America is to be again
involved in civil war unlessa Napoleon
arises to quell it; but during these terri
BILE days the Pacific States will be veri.
table paradise Of peace compared with
the helIish strife that will be waged
throughout the world The few people
that may survive till 1887 will have reason
to be thankful.

AN INTELLIGENT HoRsE.-It is said
that Sleepy Tom, the celebrated PAGER,
is talked" into his wonderful speed by
his driver. The horse is perfectly blind
and his driver seems to regard him as
having as much sense as the average man
and able to understand all that is said to
him. At the start OF the heat the driver
tells him about how they go of. when he
is behind, ahead or in the bunch; tells
him when he is on the back turn, and
now entering the home stretch and there
the talking begins in earnest. He urges
him on with Go in, Tom. go. they're
crowding you, and you've got to hurry"
and in this manner he sends him around
the track at locomotive speed.

THE EQUALITY OF WOMEN.

The stir in the middle of the eighteenth
century gave great impetus to the eman-
cipation Of woman: though, curious
enough Rousseau, in unfolding his plan
of education for Sophie in Emile, incul-
Gates an almost Oriental subsection of
woman,-her education simply that she
may please man. The true enfranchise-
ment of woman, that is the recognition
(by herself as well as by MANI of her real
place in the economy of the world, in the
full development of her capa cities, is the
greatest gain to civilization since the
Christian era. The movement has its
excuses, and the gain has not been with
out loss. "When we turned to modern
literature" writes Mr.. Morley, "from
the pages in which Feneloa speaks of the
education Of girls, who does not feel that
the world has lost sacred accent, that
some ineffable essence has passed out
from our hearts,
How far the expectation has been real
lied that women. i'll fiction for instance,
would be more accurately described, bet
ter understood and appear as nobler and
iovelier beings when women wrote the
novels. this is not the place to inquire.
The movement has results which are I'M
avoidable in 4 period of transition and
probably Only temporary. The education
Of woman and the development of her
powers hold the greatest promise for the
regeneration of society. But this devel-
op!nent. yet in its infancy, and pursued
with much crudeness and misconception
of the end, is not enough. Woman would
not only be equal with man, but would
be like him: that is, perform in society
the functions he now performs. Here.
again. the notion of equality is pushed
towards uniformity. The re.ormers adj
init structural differences in the sexes
though these, they say. are greatly e1ag-
gerated by subsection: but the functional
differences are manly to be eliminated
Women ought to mingle in all the occu-
patons of men. as if the physical differ
ences did not exist. The movement goes
to obliterate, as far as possible, the dis
tinction between sexes. Nature is, no
doubt. amused at this attempt. \ recent
writer says. The femme hJre free
woman Of the new social order may. in
deed. escape the charge Of neglecting her
family and her household by contcnding
that it is not her vocation to become a
wife and a mother. Why. then, we ask,
is she constituted woman at alp Merely
that she may become second-rate MANI

A Neat Piece-of Workmanship.

a Neat Piece-of Workmanship
A LEADER reporter was invited into
the Cheyenne carriage works, yester-
day, to see a neat piece of workman
ship, Just about completed in that es-
tablishment. It is an extension top
phaeton, belonging to Major Nash, at
Camp Carlin, which was taken there
some few weeks ago, in a ricketty and
dilapidated condition, but now, all who
see it do not hesitate to pronounce it
of the most stylish-looking vehicles
in the city. 1t is two-seated, covered
overhead, and on the sides when neces-
sary, but generally used with the sides
open. 1t has elliptic springs, is quite
light, runs easily, has two neat lamps,
and a delicate design on the panels,
whilst the upholstery work cannot be
surpassed; taken altogether it is a neat,
complete, job and reflects great credit
upon the Cheyenne carriage works.
