The following is the way in which the
editor of the New York Nation is ''gener-
Gus and magnanimous" in his talk about
Mr.. Conkling's attitude toward the presi-
dent after the shooting:
t'Mr Conkling wrote letter to Attorney
General MacVeagh on the 9Th, conveying
his coincidence to the President and Mrs.
Garfield, and suggesting a change in the
law to increase the certainty and severity
of punishment for attacks on thigh exec
utive officers" His expressions of sympa-
thy sound little stiff and constrained, par
ticularly as they are preceded by discus
sion of poor law point but it is not easy
to seem simple and natural in condoling
with man whom you have few DAYS
previously been savagely denouncing as
liar and cheat, and whose household ar
engagements you have been ridiculing to
the newspaper reporters. Generous or
magnanimous talk to or about an enemy,
too, is not the least in Mr. ConElings line
His idea of happy retreat in his old age
is probably very like Heine's-a pretty
cottage embowered in flowers, with a
smooth lawn sloping to the waters edge,
and wide spreading chestnut tree in front
OF the door, with about half a dozen of his
enemies hanging TO the boughs Mr. Conk
ing has, on the whole, borne himself well
IN trying situation, and so has Mr. Ar
thur The attack on the President did the
latter the inestimable service Of taking hin

Why that choice collection of office hun
tiers at Albany, known as the Half BreeC
caucus, should choose Miller and Laphan
for their candidates, is past finding out
unless-as has been suggested-they want
ed somebody no better than they are.
Lapham left the Democratic party in
Pieree's time, because he could not get an
office, and has been nothing but an office
seeker ever since Miller is still worse, fol
he used his position on the floor of the
House simply to advance his own business
interests and will probably continue doing
so in the Senate. They are worthy pair,
and are of the ideal Senator kind, accord
ing to the New York ideal, which asks its
Senator'S simply to look out for the patron
age and offices, and other considerations
can go.

to Washington. where few days of Sc
clusion and quiet have made people begin
to think kindly Of him again"

About a fortnight ago the night watch
man of Brieg, Prussia, while performing
his usual rounds, observed light to be
burning inside the village church at the
conspicuously uncanonical hour of a. m.
He straightway awoke the beadle and call
ed that officials attention to the suspicious
appearance. Having hastily collected to-
gether sufficient force of stout hearted
parishioners armed with hatchets, hay
forks, and cndgels. the Waterman and bea-
die proceeded to search the interior of the
church. The chancef OF Brief Church is
adorned by life size effigies of the twelve
apostles. For some time the investigation
proved altogether fruitless, when, all of a
sudden, the watchman nudged his compan
ION, and whispered: Look how one of
the apostles Is waggling about !" Have
you taken leave of your senses2' rejoined
the beadle Not at all See; there are
10 apostles, instead of 10, and the extra
one has moleskin cap on The beadla's
ecclesiastical instincts at first prompted
him to regard this addition to the apostolic
company as miracle, symbolical CT spe-
cial glory and honor destined to accrue to
Brieg church, but this pleasant illusion was
soon rudely dispelled by the discovery that
the thirteenth apostle was a sacreligious
rascal, who had secreted himself in the
church at the time of its closing, with a
view to making clean sweep of the COM
munion plate When he heard approach |
ing footsteps he climbed from the ahl1r in |
to the gallery containing the holy efigies, |
and there he was seized, trembling with |
fright his detection being mainly due to |
his inability, through sheer panic to main |
tain statuesque attitude.

An English journal has given vent to its

An English journal has given vent to it
opinion that if the English system of com
pertinent cars were used in this country
that great degree of danger from railroad
robberies would be avoided. If this state
ment was made through mere desire to
defend home institution that is generally
attacked. it can go by as simple instance
of British peryersity; but if it is ma de in
good faith, it sounds certainly like poor
logic. From one to six persons are lock
ed up in a compartment, and the chances of
their organizing effective resistance" I'M
der such circumstances are certainly small.
The reason that no such attacks have ever
been made in England more likely lies in
the fact that the same reasons exist there
that exist in New York for instance; in the
first place the country is so thickly settled
that an escape would be impossible, and
secondly there are no men there with the
reckless courage and dash to make the at
tempt. There is one thing about these
robberics in this country as instanced by
the late one on the Rock Island road, there
seems to be plenty of courage among the
robbers, but it is the passengers who seem
to lack it. The statement was made after
the late robbery that there was not a pas
senger who had pistol, but if the ques-
ton had been put before several could
probably have been found. 1t was shame
that made them deny it afterwards.

The Williams Brothers are entrapped

The Williams Brothers are entrapped in
cave up in Minnesota, and three hundred
men are surrounding them. These three
hundred brave fellows, however, have ask
ed the Governor to call out the militia to
aid them in the capture. One hundred to
one are not odds enough for these valiant
farmers of Minnesota They want the en-
tire military force of the state back OF
them. While they are waiting for the SOL
diers, it is to be hoped that none of the
outlaws will show themselves, for the en-
tire three hundred might appoint them
selves committee of the whole, and go of
to hurry up that militia. These three hun
dred should be immortalized in verse, as
though they had been at Balaklava.

The Pal Nall Gazette has been predict
ing coming financial crisis in this coun
try, basing its reasons tor such prediction
on the prospect of good crop in England
and Europe. Why it should arrive at such
conclusion from such premises, is perhaps
hard to tell. A bountiful European har
vest is not in our judgment, an event cal
culated to produce a financial crisis in this
country We cannot conceive how it should
cause our people to owe more than they
can pay. If we have already contracted
debts abroad, or to each other, based upon
the expectation that all future European
harvests were to be bad, and all of our own
good, the occurrence of bountiful crop
abroad might put US in the predicament of
being unable to pay such obligations; and
that would be financial crisis, great
er or less. according to the amount
of Indebtedness in default. But
mere inability to sell our surplus
abroad would have no other tendency than
to Lessen our ability to buy-that is, to
make US economical A year or two of
economy and ''close rubbing" would per
haps be good for us, although uncomfert-
able. 1t would certainly postpone rather
than hasten the oncoming of financial
crisis, If the Pail Mall Gazette means, by
its aliusion to the stability of the New
York money market, that circumstances
may arise which will cause tumble in
American railway stocks for want ofmoney
to carry them at present prices, we can
readily see the drift of its argument; but
this is very different thing from a tinan-
cial crisis as that phenomenon is known in
the financial world. The one certain con-
sequence of the loss of our gold by Euro
pean drafts on it would be that we should
have to drop down on our silver. but there
is no other. This would be very unfor-
tunate, but 1t would not necessarily bring
about a financial collapse.
