heard of the case before November,
while, if it had come to trial, the
papers might have been filed for
weeks and months. at critical time,
with damaging disclosures, and per.
haps might have recorded the dis
grace of an adverse result.
The temporary advantage is all
with the defendant, but what will be
the permanent effect upon the honest
opinion of the country? Mr.. Tilden
has been making al! his preparations
to demand another nomination for
the Presidency from his party. One
OF the serious obstacles in his way is
the general estimate CT his moral
character, and one of the%influences
producing that estimate has been this
very charge. Here was an opportu-
nifty to meet the accusation at time
when a verdict in his favor would
have vastly strengthened him in his
party and before the people, and-the
trial has been postponed at his re-
quest until November. The charge
has been pending for years, but he il
willing to wait eight monts longe
for his vindication. Evidently Mr.
Tilden pays his party-the poor com
pliment of supposing that he can ge
its nomination, no matter what hi
reputation is.-N. Y. Tribune.

The election in San Francisco on
Tuesday of last week resulted in
defeat of the so-called workingmen's
and kearney party quite as signal as
their victory last year. The majority
for the citizens union ticket, which
was supported by the better and con-
servatiye elements of the community
of all classes, is large enough to lie
conclusive of the determination of the
people in San Francisco to put per-
iod to the disorder and confusion
which have been the only tangible
results of Kearney's temporary as
tendency in that city. The victory
for law and order creates the greatest
satisfaction in California, as it must
do in every other place where the
forces which bind society together are
respected and valued. The Kearney.
ties may not 60 to work themselves
that is scarcely to be expected of
them-but at least they will not find
it expedient to permit Others to do so,
and the return of peace and revival
of business in San Francisco will be
advantageous to business interests in
all parts of the Country. The lesson
which Kearney has learned will be
useful to those who may hereafter
aspire to follow in his footsteps
American good sense, the natural So
briefly and conservatism Of the people
are imperyious to all serious assaults
of communism, and even those who
play at socialism and leveling, as
some members of Congress have tried
to do, cannot stand up against the
influences of two successive seasons

Mr.. Tilden's Income Tax.

Reluctance to meet charge of dis.
honest dealing is usually regarded as
a confession of guilt. The trial in the
suit Of the Government against Mr..
Tilden to recover arrears of income
tax alleged tn have been wrongfully
withheld, has been postponed by Mr..
Tilden's request until November
next. The Government has willing
ly granted the request, because it
expects to gain certain legal adj
vantages by the delay. But there
is another gain in the fact that
the postponement until after the
Presidential election has been held
proves that the prosecution is not
conducted for partisan purposes. The
action ofthe Government is digniied,
and in the interest of public decency.
Its course is that of strong party
dealing with man whom it knows
to be in its power. Still Mr.. Tilden
will Enthusiastically gain by the post

The Southern Democratic papers
are taking a rather timid view of
their party's duty in regard to the
Cincinnati convention. The Charles
ton Courier urges Southern delegates
not to take any prominent part in the
deliberations of that important as
semblage. 1t thinks no Southern
State should instruct its delegates in
favor of any of the candidates, but
must let the initiative come from the
North for otherwise 1.-THE cry will
be raised by the Republicans that the
Democratic candidate is Southern
nominee, and is therefore not to be
trusted-a political alarm that would
have more or less weight in prevent
ing Northern men from voting the
Democratic ticket"
The Courier insists that delegates
from that section should use no in
fluence whatever, except to defeat
the nomination of an unyailable can
dldate. In other words, they should
use veto power rather than a dicta-
torial one. This timorous policy does
not seem to deserve commendation.
Its only outcome will be an evinced
belief that the party is weak, and can
only be kept alive by subterfuge, and
by pandering to the anti.SOuthern
sentiments of Northern voters. So
long as such an abomination is petted
and cringed to, so long will substan-
tial reconstruction be impossible. 1t,
will be more in accord with Southern
manliness for the delegates to speak
their sentiments fearlessly-othe'-
wise the alleged peace between the
sections will continue to be nothing
more than a hollow truce Bdlto.

An ingenious Yankee hasinvented
what he callss "Patent Ballot Box"
Tne amount of rascality practiced in
these degenerate times demands
some device to head off the vile tools
OF the parties of the present day. If
this late invention will accomplish
all that is claimed for it, this ingeni-
Gus Yankee ought to receive PEN
sion from the Government and the
thanks of honest men. The box is
said to be very simple in its contriv-
ance, and is described as follows /:
"The ballot is put in at the top thro'
a small slit, and then passes between
two rollers, on the largest of which
is canceling stamp. After the bal
lot is Cancelled it falls into the bottom
of the box, the receptacle for the bal
lots. The ballot is drawn between
the rollers by the turning of a crank,
and when it is turned a bell rings to
call attention to the fact that the box
is in operation, A register is attach
ed, which shows correctly the num-
her of ballots that have passed into
the box. The ballots can be removed
from the box at any time while vot-
ing is in progress and be counted but
when any are taken cut the cancel
ing stamp is changed, SO that every
lot removed from the box will bear a
different stamp. If two or more
ballots are put in at once only one is
CANCELLED, and the register will indi.
cate that only one ballot has been
cast. The number of votes cast must
agree with the number indicated by
the register, and if they do not agree
it shows that fraudulent votes have
been cast"

The immediate neighborhood OF st. Pc

the Philadelphia Item, has been in q state
Of intense excitement lately, owing to the
alleged appearance OF ghost. Late one
night, while some persons were passing the
graveyard, they were startled by seeing
a white apparition standing at the head
OF a newly-made grave. They commu-
nicated the fact TO others, and The
news soon spread In oil directions.
About 10 o'clock the next evening a
woman renewed the excitement. She held

the crowd TO fall back, and in the confusion
that eDsued the ghost disappeared. A
young woman, Ellen Moore, was positive
she saw the ghost. 1t was dressed IN
white. The earth opened on both sides, as
II pushed away by an invisible power, and
the ghost gradually came up. She was posi-
tive that il raised its left arm, and pointed IN
the direction OF the church building. 1t was
surrounded by radiance that dazzled her
so much that she had to shut her eyes, and
when she opened them the ghost had disap-
pearcd. Policeman Rice states that he be-
Iieved the ghost business to have been
caused as follows: A child, having sudden

ried, and, in order to copfne the disease IN
the spot, the grave was partially filled with
phosphorus. A large glass cover containing

RECENT CHANGES IN HER INDUsIRIES-A
HOPEFUL FUTURE.
The empire OF Brazil as producing
country is undergoing vital changes. its
production Of sugar, cotton, IDdia.rubber,
paraguay tea, and hides has Of late years
declined greatly. The diamond mines are
only half worked, and the stones have great
~ deprecated In value during the past ten
wears. A few mines are conducted under
English and American control, and by bet
ter machinery and more careful manage
ment pay reasonable dividends. The gold
mines may be included in the same category.
Only about e1,500,000 yearly are extracted
from the few mines now operated by for
eigu companies. Coffee remains king OF the
agricultural products, and its cultivation
has been greatly extended and promoted
by the introduction OF labor-saying ma.
chinery and the building Of new railways.
or this plant the correspondent OF the Lon
don Times writes:
s.There are, it is said, $50, 200, 900 coffee
plants in the empire, covering 100000
acres, to which large additions are made
year BY year; the annual crop Is 100000
tons. OF which $4,000 are for home con-
sumption. And yet, though BRAZILIAN
coffee makes up about one-hah OF the guam
tity Of coffee produced in the whole world
though its excellence bias been recognized
at the Vienna and Philadelphia exhibitions,
and rewarded with gold medals and hon.
orable mention, 1t seems to be held Of so
little account 10 the markets that to insure
a sale Il has to be labelled as Java, Porto
Rico, Ceylou, or Mocha produce. There
Is room for improvement in this branch
OF production In Brazil, and it also ad-
mIts OF further extension; but, although
coffee can be planted almost through
ont the territory Of the empire, 1 was
assured at the well-known fazenda, or estate
Of Baron Faro, OF Rio Bonito, near Barra
do pIrahy, model establishment, yielding,
with two adjoining estates, 100000 pounds
OF coffee, an annual income OF eco, 900, that
the coffee crops above the latitude OF Rio
Janeiro are liable 10 be wthered by droughts,
while below the latitude Of San Paulo they
are often nipped by frost, the most fayora-
BILE soil aud climate being found in the
northern districts OF San Paulo, where the
income to be made by coffee Is higher by
one third than what the Baron himself can
raise out OF his own model farm"
There are twtnty-eight steam navigation
companies operating Ia the inland waters
Of The empire and 1881 miles OF railway,
with nearly 1000 miles more surveyed and
partly constructed. TIE revenues Of the

ditures several millions more, chiefly on ac-
