times it was the custom Of Secretaries
to be prepared TO invite the most rigid
inquiry into the manner In which
the contingent fund was disposed Of,
and no man dared to make an ACCUSE
ton against q Treasury Secretary UNI
less he was prepared to substantiate
his charge with proof because proof
would at once be challenged by de-
mand for an investigation. This does
not seem to be the case with Mr..
Sherman. His policy is to get his
record in his own hand and to with
hold it from the public.

THE ELEVENTH STREET BRIDGE -

LIZ I44l@ hNA IA ~ AAs@GA fSAA~%~Nesf
The attack which the Republican
makes upon the Levy Court, on ac-
count of the tardy manner in which
the work progresses on the new Bran.
dywine bridge at Eleventh street, is
neither fair nor just. The GAZETTE
has referred 20 the slow progress with
which the stone work of this bridge
proceeds several times, and on each
occasion has expressed fears that it
would not be completed as early as it
should be. But we never supposed
that the Levy Court would permit the
delay of the work if it could help it,
and thus put the large number of peo>
pie who find it necessary to cross the
Brandywine to travel round by the
Market street bridge, and others to
run the risk of crossing the railroad
bridge, near the jackson Il Sharp
works, which has been stripped of its
flooring, thus adding to the danger oil
being run over by some of the sixty oil
seventy trains which cross it daily
In fact we took the pains to inquire Of
Colonel Christian Febiger, the char
man of the Levy Court committee,
having charge of the building of this
bridge when it was commenced as tx
the probable length of time the stream
would be without bridge. Col
Febiger then informed us that he haC
been assured by the Edgemoor Com
pany that they had everything ready
and were prepared to push the ston'
work right ahead. We understoo,
from this that Mr.. Febiger looked TO
no delays and that it was his expecta
tion that the work would be done wit
all possible dispatch. Col. Febige
was very particular to give the Who'll
contract to the Edgemoor Company
for the very reason that it then coult
not fall back upon the Levy Court AM
charge that it had not got the ston
abutments and piers doLe in time an
thus claim All excuse for delay. Thu
it seems the Levy Court is in nowis
at fault, and we have reason TO beliey
that the chairman of the committe,
Col. Febiger, has himself been great
disappointed in not getting the wo
done faster. In fact the bridge Dug
to have been completed and ready t
travel now. But that it is an outra
upon the people is no fault OF t
Levy Court. We admit that it was
depression from the customary poll
of the Court to build the bridge wit
out advertising for proposals, If IL
was the case, and shows the necessi
of making contracts as binding as pt
sible. The GAZETTE has always he
that in doing the public work the &C
tract system was the cheapest a
best.

NEW YORK, it is claimed, BY the
Democrats and Independents, will
cast majority of votes to-day for
the Democratic ticket. The "Stal-
warts" and "Half-breeds" both say
they expect this. The former are
charged by the latter with inviting
defeat. We hope the result will meet
the wishes of the Democrats. Ger
tainly no people ought to support or
elevate to power party that is SO
corrupt as the Stalwart Republicans
charge the Half-breed Republicans
with being.
VIRGINIA is claimed by both parties.
The Democrats and Conservatives say
they will carry the State, while the
Malone Readjuster p arty assert that
they will receive such additions from
| the Republican party and the negro
vote as to give them from 10000 to
30, 600 majority. 1t seems hardly
creditable that q man who had SO re-
Gently sold himself to the Republicans
should command majority of TIT
votes of the people of Virginia, an'
VIC shall not believe it until convinced
by the returns. There is very heav.
negro vote in Virginia, however, ant
it may be that it will all, or nearly al
be thrown with the Malone Readjusts

The case of a girl who at the close of her

that the laws Of the King or Queen be

against Albert Bishop for the murder Of

marshal of Hsarne and was at It'd :fmo Of
the killing. John Brown and his father
Green Brown, had been very diserderly for
some hours, and Bishop summoned a po,so
to aid in arresting them and went to the
Grand Central saloon, where the killing took
place, and demanded tho surrender of both
the Browns. Both deceased and his father
showed resistance, and John Brown was
killed with pistol. The testimony has
previously been before two grand

the fact that there has been one now in
dueos the belief in the minds of Biuhops
friends that but one side Of the matter has
been heard, and that highly celVred. When
the indictment was presented in open court
the district attorney remarked to the Judge
that the evidence was mesgre, and suggested
a bond Of 900, which sum was fixed upor
and given without leaving the court room.
