We think General Sherman rushes
to the defense of West Point with
undue taste. The General says that
there IS no place where there is less
prejudice than in the army. This is
probably true, but it should be borne
in mind that West Point is not the
army, and also that the army is not
made up of West Pointers. The
army is recruited from the honest
laboring classes who sympathize with
humanity. The West Point recruits
are often paupers and dead beats.

HOPE FOR VOORHEES, YET.
Senator Voorhees, on West Point.
Judge Bundy has received the following
letter from Senator Voorhees,
u. S. SENATE CHAMBER,


letter from Senator Voorhees,
u. S. SENATE CHAMBER,
WASHINGTON, April Is, 1880. I
think the time has come for revolu-
ton at West Point, and if the poor boy
Whitaker never does anything else he
will at least cause such on overhauling as
to put an end to the hazing and similar
scenes of barbarism. He did not cut his
own ears, and l wonld not believe it even
if he is coerced and brow beaten until he
confesses it.-Newcastle Courier.
The above expression of sentiment
from Senator Voorhees,, on the West
Point outrage, does him great credit.
He has struck the right keynote for
once in his life. If he will only per-
suade his party in Congress to abol-
ish and wipe out the infamous West
Point Academy for the propagation
of pimp aristocracy, he will earn the
admiration and respect of the whole
Negro race. We despair, however,
of his accomplishing that. when we
remember that he belongs to the same
party as Senator Salisbury of Della
ware, who declared on the floor of
the Senate that the co-education of
the races is an impossibility. Sena-
tor Voorhees, should tell Salisbury
privately that he is an ignorant fool,
and that, for the good name of the
American people, he should cut out
his garrulous, lying tongue. and use it
for fish bait.

The sentiment of this community
is that the death penalty passed upon
Joe Wade last night for the murder
of Brown, is just and right. We
trust that the lawyers will make no
attempt to defraud Justice.

LIVELY CHAT WITH HATCH-wHAT
HE KNOWS ABOUT STOCK BooMs-
THE COMING CROPS.
In talk with World reporter on
Saturday, Mr.. Rufus Hatch, the we'll
known Wall street operator, said:-
"The whole stock booms of 1879 was
based upon our enormous export of
wheat and the unprecedented crops in
this country. Then there was an extra
ordinary state of affairs in England.
Next the entire Continent saw uni
veisal failure of crops. We were thus
able to export about 1920, 100000 worth
of wheat and -four alone in ten months.
1t was not Sherman boom or Grant
boom, but what might be termed
wheat telephone-electrIc light Menlo
Park-Ediscn boom that was short-lived.
Pric' tor many of the stocks were, |
grant you, too low in 1876 and 1876, but
they certainly went much too high in
he early part of 1870 and the beginning
of 1880.
"YOu see our stock market is like
beautiful china bowl full of lovely
fresh laid eggs, golden and rosy. Every
body Is fond of whipped syllabub.
America is nation of speculators.
Jay Gould, for instance, holds patent
whipper, such as cooks use. He takes
this bowl full of fiolden eggs and whips
them into froth and adds little cream.
Beautiful spectacle! just as childish
diners rush at parties for the whipped
cream, so the outside public rushed for
the stock-froth. The public got it, but
Gould kept hold of the bowl, aud what
of value there really is IN the golden
eggs which he whipped he and others
knew how 10 retain or reacquire for a
fresh stir up. The subsidence of stock
froth partially came IN November last; /;
they stirred up the eggs again, and the
froth commenced again ON Vanderbilt's
selling some $75,000,000 of photolitho-
graphic pictures, chromos, and photo
graphs sometimes called Central and
Lake Shore and Canada Southern

state of the European crops. Let the
Wall street mariner keep that idea
always in view like a lighthouse.
Vanderbilt showed his ability and
shrewd1ess in unloading to the confid-
ing public at the very top of the initiation
froth. Keene, Gould, Sage, and Hunt
ington tried to follow in his tracket, but
they have only partially succeeded.
'If by the 1st of August England and
the Continent pass the wink over the
Atlantic to us that their crops are again
insufficient, then our exports of grain
and provisions will mount up heavily
their will be railway earnings and great
fresh appearance of prosperity, and the
boom of 1879 may return for while.
But if the wink doesn't come, then
wheat will go lower at the West than
for twenty years past.

NEW IRON BRIDGE.

The West Chester Record says that
the managers of the West Chester &
Philadelphia Railroad company will
tear down the frame bridge over Bar
nard street, West Chester, and erect
an iron bridge in its place, as the old
one is not considered strong enough
for the rolling stock the new company
are about to put on. The managers
will also begin this week altering the
platforms at the different stations
along the road between West Chester
and Philadelphia. B sides the road
is to be reballasted and put in fist
class condition, like that of their main
line-the Philadelphia, Wilmington u

The Baltimore Sun OF yesterday says the
local stock market is quiet, with but little
effort towards business in any department.
The feature Of the situation on Saturday
was better demand at firmer prices for
Virginia bonds, which have been depressed
for some days past. Consols sold at 555 to
564. and closed With good inquiry at the
latter figure and only very small offering
at 56s, The 10.40's sold at 40j and 40l,

HOW CERTAIN BURGLARS OCCUPIED THEM
SELVES on SUNDAY AND MADE SIXTY DOL.
LARS CASH.
New York World, yesterday
At 6:15 o'clock last evening Officer GLASS,
OF the Church Street police station, who
was irving The doors OF the warehouses on
bis beat in West street, found the doors OF
Nos. 70 and II. in the building occupied
by Messrs. Borden 4 Lowell, merchants and
agents for the FaIl-Riyer irOn-Works and
the Borden Mining Company, uDfastened.
According TO a regulation in the depart
ment he summoned aid, and in a few
moments officer Michael Flanagan, who
is stationed on the iniersecting streets,
Joined him. At first they thought
that some one belonging TO the bouse
might be within, but upon examining
the door more closely found that the
lock had been pried of. The two officers
cautiously made their way 10 the offices on
the second floor, where they found that
burglars had been at work on the premises.
The large, safe Of the firm had been drilled,
charged with powder. and literally blow n to
pieces. fragments Of the heavy iron
door were scattered about the offices.
Desks, drawers, and cuDboards had been
broken open. and the papers and books OF
the firm strewed the floor. A large iron
door communicating with an adjoining
building had been pried open, but the
thieves seeing only iron-works inside,
had evidently not ven,ured therein.
The burglary was at once reported
to the captain OF the precinct, and
the firm was notified. A son Of one OF
the members OF the firm responded TO
the call last evening, and said that there had
fortunately been only about $50 left in the
safe on Saturday night, though frequently
much larger amounts were kept there over
banking hours. 1t was found that the
bur glars in their search for plumber bad de-
streyed many valuable books and papers.
A critical examination OF the place by the
police led 10 the conclusion that one OF the
thieves bad secreted himself in the building
before the close OF business on Saturday,
and prying off the front-door fastenings bad
admitted bis fellows. A hole was found cut
in one OF the panes OF glass. No one has
yet been found who heard the explosion
caused by the blowing open Of the safe,
and the police are quite in the dark as TO
what time the robbery was committed. Two
old coats which the burglars left behind
were found.
