LOCAL POLITICS.

REPUBLICANs PREPARING FOR THEIH
COUNTY AND STATE CAMPAIGNS.
The Republicans County Executive
Committee met.in the LincolnC Club rooms
yestri day afternoon the chairman Solmon
Hersey, editor Of the Republican, ,presid-
q ng. The attendance wss good, and the
faithful seemed to feel good at their
political prospects during the coming
campaign. A. the meeting Saturday
May 1st, was fixed upon as the Tina for
holding the election TOR delegates to the
Republican State Convention, and for
members Of the Comfy Executive Com
mittee, the polls will be open from A TO I
O'clock p. IN, In Wilmington and New
Castle and from to 9 o'clock In the
outside hundreds. Messrs. Fl r Pickels,
l. Horace Rudolph and Sam'l FL. Price,
were appointed q committee to apportioh
IS delegates which New Castle County
will have In the STATE Convention, among
the respective wards and hundreds Of the
county. IL.
Mr. H., n. Pickels who 10 nov fairly In
the political harness again has issued Q
call as chairman Of the Republican State
Central Committee Tor Convention of
the Republican party OF Delaware to be
held al Dover on Thursday May 9th, two
weeks from to-day At 2 o'clock p. m the
Convention will be composed of 100
delegates apportioned as follows: New
Castle 6s; Kent 40, Sussex, AZ. 1t will
thus be seen that New Castle with the
as istance of very few from the other
counties can practically control the. Con-
ventIon fact that the lower coun les
have frequently learned to their sorrow
aud discontinue. On the other hand the
lower counties can join hands aud sit
down on New Castle II they desire
but 1t takes solid front and q united
vote to do it. t ..3.-L
1t is curious ard rather suggestive
fact that the Convention has beer called
for the sixth of May which is the day
the Greenbackers some two weeks ago
selected as the time for holding their
Stale Convention. Both Conventions
are to be held In Dover aud it looks very
much as though the Republicans who
polled but few hundred votes at the
J asst State election were about to be
merged into the Greenbsck patty which
made the only organized opposition to
the Democracy In the campaign Of
1878. f4-i

Died From HIS Injuries.

Henry Long, conductor of a freight
trair on the W. & N. r. R., met with a
serious railroad accident while coupling
cars on the 18th of April. At the time
Of the accident Mr.. Long had one of his
legs badly crushed. II was supposed at
first by his physicians that the hmb
could be saved, but the symptoms after
wards showed that the leg would have
TO be taken off, aud on Sunday last ii
was amputated above the knee by Drs.
II. K. Williams aud Pratt. The opera
ton proved to be too much for his sys
TEN to undergo, and on Monday nighl
he died. Immediately after receiving
his injuries Mr.. Long was taken TO the

Req. Majors Case,

The case of Rev. VIM. Major was
yesterday arpued before the Judicial
Conference, in Union M. E. church, as
stated in the GAZETTE. During the
afternoon session the case was argued
on behalf of the Philadelphia Confer
ence by Revs. Hargis and Cox. Rev.
W. L. Gray followed with the closing
argument on behalf of Mr.. Major.
Then all except the members of the
Conference retired, and the case was
taken up for action. 1t was decided
by vote OF II to s to reverse the ver-
dict of the Philadelphia Conference,
after which the Judicial Conference
adjourned sine die. Er e q
This action on the part of the Judi
cial Conference fully restores Mr.. Ma
.jor to his former pastoral relations. II
was not generally believed that he was
as much connected with the issuing OF
bogus diplomas as was the Rev. Mr..
Miller, and hence his case was more
fayorably considered, a : T

THE M'aIBRNY FAMILY.

On Friday and Saturday evenings
next, the wonderful McGibeny Family
will appear at the Opera House, in
their unsurpassed concerts.
Early in September last they began
their concert season, and, although
unknown in the sections visited, they
have attracted immense audiences,-
Everywhere the same verdict has been
pronounced by the people and press,
that they are simply marvellous. In
Lancaster, Pennsylvania, they played
one week TO 5000 people, and in Read
ing and other points in that section
hundreds were turned away at every
performance unable to get admittance
10 their unique entertainments.
November 10th they began weeks
engagement at Camden, N. j., oppo.
site Philadelphia, playing to over g.
600 people in six performances. While
playing in Camden they were engaged
by an eminent musical firm for hun
dred concerts in and Sbout Philadel-
phia, and are now filling that engage.
ment creating furor wherever they
appear.

On Wednesday evening next, this
company of artists will appear at the
Opera House, in their extravaganza of
"rhe Brook" This company is form
ed on the same plan as that of ''Our
Goblins," and all the pieces that they
present are light and airy.
The impression of this extravaganza
is, that the artists are having bit of
fun to themselves, without The knowl-
edge that anybody is looking on. They
are supposed to be servants in the
house of a wealthy gentleman, who in
dulges an eccentricity by giving a
masquerade in the spacious parlor of
his uptown mansion. Appropriating
the dresses used on the occasion while
the guests are at supper, they dress
themselves in accordance with their
several fancies, and proceed to act,
sing and dance as their inclinations
suggest, but with due regard for dra-
matte and operate propriety. The
extravaganza is overflowingwith music
and pure fun, while it is embellished
with magnificent costumes and the
most carefully prepared stage acoes-
sories, making it most attractive pro-

From the N. Y. SUM- od" III o.3
AN UNLAWYERLIKE LAWYER.

Judge Samuel Hand of Albany, long
noted as an ardent friend of Mr.. Til
den, has withdrawn his fealty from his
old chief. That Is his own business.
He has a right to support or oppose
whomsoever he sees fit among the cam
didates for President. With his
course in this respect We have nothing
to do.,i..g ,.l, Ida,h.4. -..t..I..-
But we have something to do with
the causes which he assigns as mill
tating against Mr.. Tilden's candidacy.
One Of these is that Mr.. Tilden ap-
pears regularly as q defendant before
the courts, and another is the income
tax suit again. r,,ssw
1t is not easy to believe that such
unlawyerlike remarks can have fallen
from the lips Of a lawyer Of Mr.. Hands
eminence. Why are constitutional
and legal tribunals Of Justice establish
ed, except that parties may appear be-
fore themf .... ....', ,'....
This is the first time we ever heard
the idea broached by learned lawyer
that there was dishonor or discredit
in defending against an unjust suit
II there is, then Mr.. Hands occupa-
tion is one Of the meanest in Christen-
dom. Such a doctrine would enure
directly to the benefit Of blackmailers,
conspirators, and swindlers. a,i
As to the income tar suit, it In dis
creditable only to the Administration
that brought it. 1t is one of the basest
prosecutions in the history of the
country. The Income Tax law left it
optional for q man to make his own
returns or to be assessed by o Govern
ment officer, to whose assessment fifty
per cenium Of the amount might be
added as q penalty. Some years Mr..
Tilden chose one course and some
years he chose the other. He had an
equal and perfect right to choose
either. He paid IN full, and prompt
ly. fe,-,i ~, IL ...
Years afterward, when and because
Mr.. Tilden had become more prominent
IN politics, it was concluded that the
Governments own officer had not as
sessed him high enough, and that suit
should be brought against him for the
alleged deficiency. 1t was thought to
injure him in the public estimation by
such suit. Scoundrelly device 1t
was second only to Woodford's "work Of
hell" In reference to the slave trade,
exposed In these columns many years
ago. .... .-.... -.......
A conscientious man engaged in ex-
tended and complicated business affairs
often experience great difficulty In max
ing out returns he could swear TO, and
might we'll hesitate as to what was ex-
actly right. If he preferred to pay the
Government assessment aud half as
much more as penalty, 1t was q full
compliance with the requirements of
the law, and nobody had q tight to find
fault with him for so doing.
The political suit against Mr.. Tilden
was as ridiculous as it was Infamous.
There was no principle Of law on which
i could rest. 1t had no substantial
foundation. f. ......
Without saying anything for or against
Mr.. Tilden's nomination, we do think
the fact that he defends himself against
unjust suits and prosecutions before the
courts is greatly to his credit. AL. ,...

. In discussing the two cyclones which
visited the Bay of Bengal in October,
1876, Mr.. Elliott, Meteorological Re-
porter to the Government of Bengal, in
cidentally gives some idea of the cyclic
pean forces which are developed by such
storms. The average "daify evapora-
ton" registered by the Bengal .instru-
ments in October is tive inches" The
amount of heat absorbed by the CONVEX
sion of this amount of water daily over
so large an area as the Bay of Bengal is
enormous. Roughly estimated" says
Mr.. Elliott, "it is equal to the continu-
GUS working power of 100000 steam en-
gines of l ,000-horse power" A simple
calculation will show that it suffices to
raise aloft over $4,000 cubic feet of
water in twenty-four hours from every
square mile of the bosom of the bay,
and transport. it to the clouds which
Overhang it. When we extend the
calculation from a single square mile to
the area of this whole Indian Gulf, the
mind is lost in the effort to conceive the
force which, in a days time, can lift
80, 900, 900 tonsl Yet it would be easy
to show that such figures, fabulous as
they seem, do not adequately represent
the cyclOni0 forces of a single storm.
