Bill English, in replying to the official
notification of his nomination as vice
president, gives to the Democracy the
assuring intelligence that he is "a prac-

he will make a colossal stride in the di-
rection of solidifying his constituency.
In the ten-line speech with which

COLD COMFORT.

1t must, indeed, have been II supreme
and triumphant moment for Mr. Samuel
Jones Tilden when the members of the
National Democratic committee invad-
ell the classic precincts of his historic
residence ON the 18th inst, inflated
with the PhilanthrOpic and consoling
mission of informing him that the work
of notifying Messrs. Hancock and Eng
lish of their triumph at Cincinnati over
the most illustrious statesmen of their
party had. been but half performed, and
that, with view to completing this mo-
mentous duty, they had come 'lo pay
homage To him who had been elected by
a large majority four years ago" and to
thus formally acknowledge the sanity
selfabnegation of the man who, by
his involuntary y act, had taken from
the shoulders of his party the burden OF
his personal and political record, and had
relinquished his claims upon n constitu-
ency which was confessedly unable to
carry him. AS the modest sage of cipher

ENCOURAGING TO REPUBLI-
CANS

The Kansas City Times actually con
cedcs the fact that 1.-THE Republican party.
Notwithstanding the lukcwarmness of
some of its leaders, will make desperate
struggle for suprcm acy in the COM
ing contest, and will soon abandon
their attacks on the record of General
Hancock and pour their heaviest fire on
the record and animus of the Democratic
party" AS this grateful concession is the
very first intimation on the part of the
Democratic press that the Republicans
had entertained any idea of interposing
even u show of opposition to the victori-
Gus legions who are swelling the volume
of the hurrah campaign, the supporters
of Gen. Garfield will feel To thank God
and take courage, as the intelligence
gradually filters into their detected
minds that nm organized effort is really
contemplated looking to mt least the
formality of u campaign against the
Hancock boomers, in the present canvass.
The rumor prevails and has positively
gained circulation through the press,
that II national committee has been or
ganized with headquarters Mt New
York, and from that politi-
cal center the audacious intel
ligence has emanated that the Repuhli-
cans are going 10 the fabulous length of
claiming Ohio, Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, most
of the New England states and that even
Iowa and Kansas have been placed in
the Republican column by the credu-
lous fanatics that are propelling the Gar
field boom. While there is evidently
sufficient in all this to excite the gravesi
apprehension in the public mind as to
the sanity of tile Republican leaders, the
acme of popular derision has only been
attained since it has been revealed that
the Republican canvass actually EN-
braces in its comprehensive provisions

Connecticut, and the measure oil

CAR WHEELS.

There are more than 10000. 900 car
wheels in use in the United States, the
average life of wheel is eight years.
and il requires little over "A ton of pig
iron to make four wheels Hence,
assuming that the number of wheels in
use is even 10000, 600, it requires 80,
900 new wheels to replace those worn
out each year, and to make these over
$4,000 tons of pig IRON are required.
AS 100000 wheels are worn out each
year, and as the average weight of a
worn out wheel is about SIS pounds.
something like 2S6, 389 tons of this old
material are available for remanufac-
ture. The difference between this sum
and 312.2OO0-the approximate weight
of The new wheels-shows pretty cor
rectly the number of tons of new mate
rial consumed per year in the manufac-
ture of car wheels, assuming that all the
old wheels are manufactured into new
ones. This difference is 25,111. The
life of a car wheel, however, is growing
shorter, for two reasons: l. The increas
ing weight of a car load, the loads on
some roads now being double what it
was few years ago; and second.
better management and improved facilI-
ties by which the wheels are kept moy-
ing more continuously than formerly.
As an instance, a train loaded with petro-
leum can be unloaded at New York in n
very small fraction of the time REQUIRED
before the excellent facilities for dis
charging were provided Manufacture
| ers guarantee wheels TO run from so. 600
to 66,O00 miles, but they not unfrequent-
ly greatly exceed this.-American Manu-
