General Brady ENJOYING Life,

General Thomas J. Brady is once more
at home in his handsome residence on Farragut
Square. He will vibrate between it and Gilsey
House, New York, all summer, with the exception
of a few weeks, when he will take a pleasure
jaunt with his family. Rich, fat, calm, and col
lected General Brady's lot appears to be happy
one. He says he never felt so well in his life. He
is glad to be released from the of Office, and
to be at liberty to make money and enjoy life. He
is puzzle to his friends and enemies alike. He
processes to be conscious of innocence and certain
of vindication, and, with irst-Assistant- Post
master General Tyner, looks for the day when a
monument will be erected to MIN or to his memory
by the grateful denizens of the Western regions,
which he thinks he has benefited along the ex-
pedited star routes. so that they now blossom like
the rose in a condition of advanced civilization.
He attributes wonderful ciyilizing properties to
star routes.-Corre&Donden Boston Herald.

Pinehback, the colored man and
brother from Louisiana, is always conspicuous in
the vicinity of the pool-box. when he can get near
one. He is usually as successful in his gambling
operations as he in politics. But he discovered
in st. Louis at a cOlored clergyman's house the
other day that four of kind would beat full
hand. This is how it was:
The other evening, after the races in ST. Louis a
number of distinguished colored gentlemen, among
them Pinchback of Louisiana, and Bob Harlan, of
Cincinnati assembled the residence of the Rev. Mr..
Tanner. an orthodox colored clergyman, on Morgan
street Poker does not seem to be unorthodox from
this good minister's standpoint, and so game was
commenced. Whether the clergyman participated
does not appear, but Pinchback did to his sorrow.
The game unlimited; he held three queens and a
pair of aces, which is considered good hand in
Louisiana-worth 81 100 the lowest estimate He is
at present 200 out of pocket victim offour deuces,
and coored society is all agog over the event, think
ing that if the Louisiana Senator backs his judgment
such reckless fashion the Rev. Tanner may have to
raise enough by subscription among his congregation
to defray his expenses home.

A Biz Railroad War.

Jay Gould has locked horns with STAN
ford, Huntington & Co., of the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company. The latter
have built their road west from the Col
orado river to El Paso: Jay Gould, who
controls the Texas Pacific claims that
the Southern Pacific has built upon an
unforfeited andgrant of the Texas Pacific,
and has brought suit to recover all that
portion of the Southern Pacific Railroad
built on this grant in New Mexico. A
temporary injunction has been granted
restraining it from using, occupying, or
running a road within the limits of the
land grant in New Mexico. A receiver
has been appointed. The order to show
cause why an injunction and receiver
should not be continued was made re-
turnable on the oath instant. a similar
suit for the recovery of the road will no
doubt be brought in Arizona. If the
time prescribed in the grant has lapsed
the Supreme Court has decided that
the grant vests as soon as made, and
that nothing but an act of Congress
can ever place in market the lands
covered by grant or deprive the
company of its right to them. The
right of this company to its lands is
fully recognized by the Interior Depart
ment, and it has virtually decided that
the Southern Pacific Railroad is a tres
passer. The meaning of this action on
the part of Gould is that he is determined
to own thrOuoh line to San Francisco
and San Diego. Our sympathies are with
Jay Gould, on the same principle that
The little girl, on being shown picture
of Daniel in the lions den, said ruefully:
"There's one poor little lion over in the
corner that won't get any" The people
of California have less than Daniels
chance, and, as they must yield all to the
railroad lions, we are favorable to the
poor little one who has only fifty-eight
thousand miles of railroad under his con-
troll.

Gibson and Cook.

If William A. Cook had been employed
to do some of the kitchen work of the
Attorney-General, with which that officer
appears to be much driven of late, no one
would have wondered But to see him
In the chief management, parleying to
the court of his intimacy with the Presi-
dent, and swelling with consequence as
he informs the amazed bystanders that
he speaks for the President-this would
be beyond belief if it had not actually
transpired in the public view. He is a
very adroit and skillful manipulation OF
certain matters which sometimes pertain
to judicial proceedings, but he must have
been himself somewhat taken aback at
being put forward in the star-route bust
ness as second only to the detective Glib
son in its management. The Cincinnati
Gazette, in mentioning his appointment,
said:
Th"re is certain character ofwork in connec-
ton with a criminal prosecution that he is fitted
for, but it is not that which ranks highest among
the respectable members of the bar. He is not cx-
pected to manage the cases or to be prominent in
their trial. The chief advantage to the Govern
ment will probably be in the fact that his peculiar
abilities will not be at the service of the other side
The New York Sun thus gave vent to
its disgust at the low tone of the whole
affair:
An exceptional and most extraordinary course
has been pursued, which impairs trust and ex-
cites suspicion from the very start. The whole
preparation and the responsible direction of the
case are intrusted 10 persons having no official
Standing and who in no sense possess the public
confidence. 1t is no credit to the Attorney Gen
eral if he sits in secret sitting the testimony, and
yet declines 10 appear in a way to be held to &C
count Who is TO answer for the security of the
documentary testimony said TO exist for the con-
viction of alleged conspiratOrs that both able
and willing to pay for protection? Who is TO
guard against treachery from inside or to give as
surance Of stern purpose to pursue the principals
and their confederates to the bitter end?
1t did not seem to occur to the Sun
that documentary testimony for the de-
fenSe of accused persons might be taken
and held for ransom by men whose
methods have not hitherto been any
guarantee against such conduct. Gibson,
who was once an employee of the Sun,
seems to have less standing in that es-
tablishment than formerly, if we may
judge by the foregoing extract. 1t may
yet appear, however, that Mr.. MacVeagh
has raised the tone of the prosecution by
keeping out of sight himself and putting
forward even Gibson and Cook

The Sfnr.Route Gases.

The plan determined upon by the de,
fense in the star-roue cases was stated to-day by
one of those interested. 1t is not believed now
that the cases will come to trial before December
and then great number of witnesses, including
Congressman, Cabinet officers, and others in high
official position will be called to testify as to what
induced the general expedition of the SER
vice. Another feature will be the sum-
moning of all the journalists, either CORE
spondents editors in whose papers assertions OF
fraud have been made. These men are to be put
upon the stand and asked for the facts of their
own knowledge on which the assertions printed
based. 1t is not believed by the defense that
one in fifty of the persons who have written these
statements can substantiate their assertions upon
the stand This will be relied upon to weaken the
prosecution and lay the foundation for the claim
that the charges have been nstigated by interested
parties, and that the men who wrote them knew
nothing of the facts.-NelD York Graphic

Mr. Coreoran.s Proposed Amendment.

The last number Of the Nation contains
communication from Mr.. W. W. Corcoran the en-
inent Washington philanthropist. proposing an
amendment to the Constitution of the United
States by which it is to be provided that on the
meeting of Congress in December, 1884, and every
four years thereafter the House of Representatives
shall elect three members of the Senate, whose
names shall be placed by the telers in q box and
drawn therefrom by the Speaker-the first drawn
to be President of the United States, the second
Vice President and the third President pro TEN. of
the Senate to succeed each other in thesame order
in the event of a vacancy by death or otherwise.
Mr.. Corcoran thinks that such an arrangement
would raise the character of the Senate, would
prevent intrigue in the management of political
conventions and would put an end to the turmoil
Of presidential elections. He adds that he has
seen all the Presidents except the first, has held
confidential relations with many of them, and
writes from the impartial standpoint of a private
citizen anxious only % promote the public good.
He says nothing, however, about an amendment
to the Constitution requesting eminent citizens
who take such lively interest in public questions
- remain and defend the country when in peril
and not run away 70 a foreign land and give aid
and comfort 10 the country's enemies during four
years of bloody strife, as he did.-Erctdnge.

Citizen Grant and Pres ident Garfield


Jenkins, the ablest of all the young
men specially trained to write for the
New York Tribune, has been lying around
loose at Long Branch, under orders to
give direction to any movement that
might be made to establish terms of
familiar intimacy between the President
and General Grant There was a good
deal of anxiety in the Tribune office lest
the bluff and nail-driving sentences of
Citizen Grant anent the Robertson ap-
pointment might do great harm.
The mock Duke of the establishment,
who, during Mr.. Reid's absence in "Yur-
rup," is under instructions to do the
lofty work of not appearing to care con-
tinental about anything the opposition
may do, did his best to appear uncon-
cerned, and "the boys" said not even Reid
himself could have carried it off better
The man who writes the articles that
read as Mr.. Stockholder William Walter
Phelps looks voted the whole business
an awful bore, and the poor fool who
writes funnygraphs principally about
Conkling and the Primacy made the bad
whisky palmer than ever in every line of
his dirty corner as he roared and slob-
bered about Grants insignificance. But
despite the courage of these several Tri-
bune organists there was one who played
in a minor key. He said: ave all love
Grant-madly, devotedly love him. Hate
to see him make mistakes-will love him
anyhow, mistakes and all. But please
won't he say that Conkling was bold,
badman Buff he won't-if he will have
it that fair play is a jewel, and that truth
is essential to manly character, why then,
God bless him. The Tribune won't crush
him, as it could if it wanted to. This
forbearance shows how Grant is loved
by the Tribune and the people," and
much more to the same effect
And then Jenkins was sent to
Long Branch. viii Grant speak to the
President?" was the dreadful question
in the Tribune Office. He walks across
the lawn. He will look up to the Presi-
dents window. He passes; he does not
look up. He looks in at the hotel. Now,
perhaps, he will advance and send his
card. No. No cards. Work, heart; beat,
brain, jenkins. Victory! Victory The
President driving; Grant walking He
looks; he-yes, thank God!-he raises
his hat and bows. The Tribune Office,
refreshed by a telegram conveying the
gladintelligence, breathes. The Conkling-
Primacy lunatic takes long pull from
the black bottle he carries on his person
and spatters a penful more of ink at
Conkling The advantage is pushed.
There is to be a sound of revelry by
night at Elberon. The gay cavaliers and
the ladies are to be there. The President
will be there. General Grant will be
invited. By forcing him into the same
room with the President he can be COM
PEELED to speak or to be rude. Admirable

IT is given out officially by the Post
that the public do not hear through the
newspapers of one-eighth of the robberies
committed in the District. What right
have the police authorities to suppress
these facts? 1t is well known that not
one hundred policemen are on active
duty in the District, force entirely too
small; but yet, with this force, it must
be admitted that the percentage of unde-
tected crimes is entirely too large if the
public never hears of ofseven-eighths of the
infractions of law. Will the chief of

John 1. Davenport admits the whole
charge-namely, that he went from the President
to State Senator Strahan, of New York, and offered
him the United States marshalshIp, saying, "Ot
course you will be expected to vote against Conk-
ling and Platt.' In other words he was bribing
the New York legislator with the prospect of a
