TURNING A LOCOMOTIVE LOOSE In A
CRDWDED CITY. De-.
About @ O'Clock yesterday morning,
Engineer Brown aud Fireman Held,
OF the New York Central Road, left
their locomotive for few moments At
Joiuer street cIossiug, Rochester, while
they went fot breakfast. No sooner
had they entered the lunch house than
they learned that their locomotive had
been started west. Fireman Held
rushed out, and saw James MyIaernay
jump from the engine. Held and others
pursued Mci1ernay, and were fought
fnrioasly by him before they conquered,
But they lodged him in the North
street reundhbuse. In the meantime
the locomotive flew on west through the
heart Of the city at the rate OF about
forty miles an hour. Had it been an
hour or two later many persons would
inevitably been killed, as thousands of
workmen and shop girls cross tine tracks
at that hour gbing 10 work. No bell or
other warning sounded. Fortunately
the engine pump was open, and the
locomotive worked her boiler full of
cold water, and so stopped three miles
west of the city and four miles from the
starting point. McInernay is twenty
two ears old, and is liable to ten years
IN State Prison Tor his terribly reckless
mischief.

From the N. VI. Herald.
Make Us a Kisz0!"

The Indiana lawyer who told Con-
| gressional committee day or two ago
that rather than be ruled by the dem
ocrats he was for the ex-president for
king Is q type of that class of tine fel-
lows, know n every age and country,
who would rather fly TO any evil that
they know not of than TO endure an i'm
aginary one that may seem imminent.
There were q lot of high spirited pat
riots of the same order Rmoung the an-
cient Israelies; they looked distrust-
ingly upon the impending brood, of
judges, or rulers, who, indeed, we're in
TENT upon looking out for themselves
aud their party. The dissatisfied faction,
however, instead Of canyassing their
own friends for better breed Of Judges,
shouted "Make us king!" and they
were equally emphatic In their demand
for strong government. They got what
they asked fot; with an Implication OF
satire that is quiet unusual in Holy
Writ, but entifiy excusabie in the case
in question or any other like IL, we read
that the person selectio das king was
man who had gone out In search Of
dsses. They got the strong government,
Too anu as Naturoi consequence they
had wars aud glory and taxes, just like
their greatest neighbors, as long as their
man and money lasted: then, as NAT ION,
they disappeared. There is faction in
American politics tina. Is just as virtu-
ously Indignant ut what seems to them
a probable evil as the Hebrew patriots
were /; but when instead Of helping
themselves they demand that somebody
else shall do their work they are sure
to receive more jeep than followers.

PAVING THE DEBTS OF RADICAL
RAscALs.-Sehator Bruce, the colored
member from Mississippi, has offered
a resolut on in the Senate which
authorizes the sale of the real estate
belonging to the Freedmen's Bank,
and proposes to appropriate money to
indemnify the depositors who lost
their money in that bank while it was
under the direction of a pack of
villainous directors. They were on a
par as to character, with the men Grant
and his fellow-robbers sent down South
to steal from the people by means of
legislation they used the negro mem
bers of the State legislatures to have
passed. Precisely who these Radical
Directors and Presidents of the Freed
mans Bank were we do not now re-
member. But the bill amounts to
making the people, through taxation,
pay to the negro depositors and stock
holders the money that they lost by
trusting people they supposed to be
their friends. AS well might the
white people who were defrauded by
the McLear swindle here, or by the ].
Cooke & Co. robbery in Philadelphia,
ask to be repaid by the govern
ment.
The robbery of this Freedman's s
Bank has always been a mystery.
Perhaps there never was quarter of
the money in the bank that has been
reported to be there. Why has there
not been an intelligent expose of this
rascally affair? John Andrew Jack
son Creswell was put in charge of it a
number Of years ago. Was that done
to cover up the rascality or to bring
the villains to justice? 1t seems to
have resulted in that individual secur-
ing fine salary for five or six years,
and revealing nothing so far as we are
able to learn. Even Bruce seems to
be very careful to conceal the means
and agents through which the ras-
cality was perpetrated, and now has
the effrontery to ask the Democrats to
bear the expense of the loss and ay
back to his negro colleagues all the
money with interest, they entrusted to
their so-called friends. We have nc
doubt many thousands of this money
were expended in the most devilish
acts of yillainy and hatred toward the
South and the Democratic people in
the border States. So far as we can
see now, it appears to us that there is
no justice at all in asking the people
TO submit to a tax to indemnify
those who lost by the rascals who
managed this ins' itutlor.
A MARKED increase in the exports of
cattle and flesh beef to Great Britain is
noticeable, Notwithstanding the restric
tions sought to be imposed on the other
side. The total shipments OF fresh beef
last year amounted to 54,000,0O0 pounds
against 100000 pounds in 1874. The
number of live cattle ahipped last year
was 136,72O as against s0,O40 for 1879
and 1858 for 1875. The shipments
thus far in 1880 have been very heavy
and an increased business during the
summer Is anticipated, 1t is claimed that
under ordinary conditions the best
American beef can be put upon the En-
giish market at two cents pound below
prices for English beef

,ESroRcs THE LAws.-rhe Ph,la

ENFORCE TIE LAws.-The Phila-
delphia newspapers yesterday contained
long articles detailing the circumstances
that led TO and the facts concerning a
so-called duel, which they alleged took
place on the borders of Delaware or in
Maryland, between couple of high
toned members of the Old City Troop,
of that "city Of churches" aud "high
moral IDEAS These circumstances are
narrated with q degree of apparent
gusto, savoring much of elation. 1t is a
long time since two men Of that city
have shown the courage to fight duel,
and there is little wonder that there
should, be q subdued satisfaction exhib-
tied over the fact Of the "meeting," on
Saturday. 1t s not actually certain
that duel was fought at all. But
shonld 1t prove to be true, and the laws
of the States are found to. have been vio-
lated these gentlemen should be made
to pay the penalty.
Had this staffair of honor" been en-
acted By citizens Of Delaware or Mary.
land, the Philadelphia papers would
have teemed with articles denunclating
and ridiculing it, as a reject of a bar
barous age. The authorities would
have been urged to have the parties
arrested at once; and we would not
have heard the last of 1t until every
weak scribbler for the radical press had
ventilated his spleen and emptied tor
rent Of abuse upon the whole people
Of the States for the acts of the half
dozen men concerned, although these
cantine, hipocrrtical writers know that
our people are as much opposed to duel
ling as the good people of their own
