Mr.. TiId en-His Condition
and His Position.
Correspondence OF tn. Baltimore san. }
New YORK, june Z, 1880.

NEW YORK, June Z, 1850,
Among the guests registered al
the St. Dennis Hotel is Mr.. j. T.
Ringgold, editor of the Baltimore
Telegram. Mr.. Ringgold has, as
you know, been consistent as well
as persistent advocate of Mr.. TIL
denis cause ever since the Inaugural
ton of Hayes, He was met last
night as he came in after spend
ing the evening at No. 10 Gramer-
cy Park. With regard to Mr..
Tilden's allegedphysical weakness,
Mr.. Ringgold said: 81 made Mr..
Tilden's acquaintance in 1877, and
l am in position to assure you that
if any trust is to be put in appear
ances, he is in great deal better
Ihealth now than he was at that
thine. Some say he had a stroke
lof paralysis; 'but' they feel obliged
Ito add, 'the intellect remains per-
fectly clear This is rank non
sense to any intelligent person, for
lit is well known that the brain is
the seat of paralysis, and the very
first organ to be affected by that
disease. Dir. Tilden has never had
"a stroke Of paralysis, or anything
lin the slightest degree resembling
lit. The fact is that he suffers now,
as he has, more or less, all his life,
Ifrom rhematism, and his left hand
lis particularly affected. You will
sometimes see it stated that he rides
with that hand, but cannot use a
knife and fork well. The explana-
ton is simple enough the arm is
comparatively free from trouble,
while the fingers are considerably
involved. l noticed marked i'm
provement, however, in his power
over this hand during the last
twelve months. The de .jurc Pres
ident's general health is perfect; he
has a fine appetite, and takes album
dance of outdoor exercise every
day. He is bright and suggestive
! in conversation, and prefers to talk
about almost anything rather than
politics. But when this subject is
preached he is as frank and candid
as a man well could be. There is
no mystery about his position.
Take. for instance, his course during
the progress Of his counting out.
Calm judgment shows that at no
time had Mr.. Tilden legal case
which would justify him in attemp-
ting to seize the presidency. In
two contingencies only could he
have been called upon to act: first,
if Congress had counted the
electoral vote, as it was by the con-
stitution obliged to do, and declar-
ed him elected; and, second, il, in
case of a failure to elect by the peo-
pie, the House, voting by States,
lhad chosen him. Neither of these
contingencies arose. Congress alb
Dictated its authority in favor Of an
unconstitutional tribunal. Mr.. Til
den was told that he might suggest
notifications IN the manner of the
proceeding but nothing affecting its
substance would be admitted. BE
lieving the whole business unlawful
he declined to sanction it by any
suggestion. The work was then
done as Predetermined.

was shot and seriously wounded in
the abdomen to. day at Highland
Falls by Beaumont Buck, of Texas,
Both of the young men were can

The bullet passed through the lat

THE Chicago Convention has been
in session since last Wednesday, To

model happy family. The friends OF
Grant and Blaine stick close to the
favorites and after the 2Sth ballot which
gave Grant sos aud Blaine PIG they
adjourned on Monday night to Tuesday

of writing, seems to be that neither
Grant nor Blaine sill he nominated.
We hope however before going to press
to give our readers the nominations.

reading, if the parties 10 it would con-
sent to its publication. The national,
as we'll az The Sac committee, there is
reason 10 believe, have received these

A BUTCHER BOYS DEATH
FROM TRlCHINOSIS.

Franz Adolph Axler, a Young
German of nineteen, worked as a
butchers boy at l60 Green wich
street, New York. Young Axler
was in the habit of snatchlng up a
piece of raw ham occasionally and
eating it. About two weeks ago he
became sick. He had muscular pains
in all parts Of the body. He thought
he had rheumatism, and on Nov. %
he was admitted to Bellevue Hos
pistal to be treated for that diaseasc.
Upon examination it was found that
he did not have rheumatism, and
trlchin@ were suspected.
A small piece of muscle was cut
out of the shoulder, and an examina.
ton with the microscope showed that
the young mans flesh was infested
with the deadly parasite. He lived
three days after it was ascertained d
that he had trichine, and suffered
great agony. 1t is said that no medi
cine, conld put him to sleep, and
that most of the time he was deliri-
Gus. A post-mortem examination
was made by Prof. Jeneway, assist
ed by DR.. Moller of the hospital staff
In a single grain of muscle they
found fifteen trichine, and they es.
tlmated that the whole number in
the young man body was about 50,-
900, 900.

The Reduction in
Clothing at Oak
Hall,

The clothing marked
down Saturday comprised
about 5000 suits and over
coats. Both the suits and
the overcoats are various
enough to constitute a
complete stock of them
selves, so that you may
be reasonably sure of find
ing among them what will
both suit and fit you.
Some of the very lowest
priced mems suits we make
aro among them; $40 reduced
to So SO, and some of all
grades up to excellent suits
at $50, reduced to $40 and
$27 80 reduced to $25.
A $40 overcoat at SIC so
is not to be missed on a cold
morning. Even the boys,
whose clothing has been wait
ing for this cold snap will not
object to the taking off of
three or four dollars from
the cost of suit and overcoat.
Remember this ! All these
garments were made by our
people, under our own eye,
and before this reduction
were marked as low as they
ought to be sold, We couldn't
afford to reduce them, but
we must sell faster to keep up
with our work people.
We know how TO sell fas-
ter. viz, by selling lower.
We have been selling faster
for nineteen years, faster than
our competitors. That we
have done of course by sell.
ing lower. Now we have to
sell faster than ourselves,
and down goes a part of our
stock, whether we can afford
it or not.
Whatever you don't like
bring back. If there be
grumbler, we don't want our
clothes On him

The Captain General suggestion of
President Hayes seems to meet with
general approval and no doubt GEN
eral Grants friends will "catch the
idea" and make the most Of it. Such
. scheme might be carried out and
thus a somewhat wearying subject be
disposed of, to the satisfaction of all
concerned. But one point should be
insisted upon, to prevent lis present
ing ludicrous national figure to the
outside world. Our little army is now
composed OF about %, 900 men, with
an extrem ely large proportion of Off
GERS. Already we have a General,
Lieutenant General, and five Major
Generals, with Brigadiers and Colo
nels ''too numerous to mention" To
cap this formidable titular array with
the high sounding and altogether su-
perhuous Captain Generalship would
be to make the military establishment
top heavy, sure enough. Let Grant
be made Captain General, but only in
retirement. He can enjoy the honor
and "emoluments" all the same-es
pecially the latter.-Telegrdph.

DEATH OF A HUMAN WONDER

For long time rast until to-d,v

growth Of q child Of j. A. Kniselv. NJ

little Que like ordinary children proved
unavailing although large sums of
money were spent In the attempt. Prom

amount for the privilege Of exhibiting
the child, but this the parents would moi
allow, although II was treated in the

the desire on the part OF doctors and
Others TO get possession Of the body is "a
