1t is notorious at Albany that the C0nk.
ling forces are plentifully supplied with
| money, which they are eager to put where

get 1t? Can 1t be that Tilden has tapped
| his barrel in his zeal for harmony In the Re-
publican party? He Is just that generous
kEd OF a man.

Democrats" squeaks Mr.. Platt. "We" is a
more dignifed form than "Conklipg and
me too" but il is hardly less udicrous.
Mr.. ConkiiDg's personal organs are busy
In recommending him as the foe OF all mo-
nopoies, and the probable father and head
of a new party, in which Judge Davis and
Judge Black, his personal friends, are TO be
his especial c0adiutors.
Every move ConkIing has made Ia this
long fight against the Republican party has
ended in disaster TO himself. There will be
a similar end to his present effort to betray
bis party to the Democrats.
All hope that Mr.. Conkliug or Mr.. Platt
would see the folly OF the enterprise In
which they have engaged, aud withdraw
from the field, Is at an end. Their object,
which was plain from the beginning, Is now
openly avowed by them-to wear out the
Legislature by a long deadlock, and then
by bargain with the Democrats to accom-.
plish an adjournment proceeding which
would result Ia grave disasters to the Re-
publican party in the State and leave the
United States Senate In the control OF the
Democrats.
The New York Republicans are requested
TO keep quiet and allow Conkling'to sell
them out to the Democrats. Will they con.

The western peoples We uaean those OF
Ohio. Kentucky. and West Virginia--are
deeply interested Ia the talked-cf extension
Of the Richmond aud Alleghany raiIroad
| 10 Toledo and Chicago. Point P'eassn''
West Va, Is nearly opposite Galiipolis,
Ohio. being only some four miles Distant
The people Of Point Pleasant are expecting
| 10 derive much benefit from the new road.
A citizen OF that town writes to the Gin
c,unati Commercial on what he calls the
Ohio Centrsps project for connecting that
road with the Richmond and Allegheny
and thus making a great trunk line from
Toledo 10 Richmond. He says the distance
from Richmond to Clifton Forge by The
Chesapeake and Ohio Is Just thirty.cight
| miles less than by the Richmond and Ale
phany, while the advantage In grade Is
vastly In favor OF the latter road.
We quote further:
The connection OF the Ohio Central with
the Richmond and Allegheny will not be
made az Clifton Forge or WILKINSON, but at
or near Buchanan, thirty.five miles south OF
| those places. From Buchanan, which Is on
the James river, or some point In that VIZ
cinity, there are two or three eligible routes
| 10 the New river. The probable cost oil me
entire road from Buchanan TO Pomcroy, cX-
clusiye Of the bridge over the Ohio at the
latter place, Is not more than ST,00O.OO0.
Rut whatever sum may be needed to con-
meet The two roads, and the distance Is un-
der rather than ouer 800 miles, II will be
furnished bv Governor Foster, General
| Thomas, and their associates, when re-
quired.
The distance from Richmond TO Toledo by
the proposed new route will not vary much
from 667 miles, while the distance between
the two cities by the Chesapeake and Ohio
ria Huntington, Portsmouth, and Column
bus, is 6a5 miles, or via Scary, Gallipolis, ana
Columbus, 674 miles. With the exception
of few mites between the headwaters OF
the streams which flow east into the James
river and those flowing west into the
New river, the road follows the water
courses Of the couutry-thus insuriDg easy
grades and moderate cost of construction.
III should like to speak OF the mag
lnifcent resources OF the country Though
which 1t will pass, the inexbaustibe de-
posts OF rich iron ores in the Valley OF the
James, the splendid coking Goals o. New
river, with which to smclt them, and the
Varied mineral and agricultural products OF
the great Kanawha Valley, which it will
traverse for its entire length, but 1 fear to
lt'espass on your space.
Enough has been said to show the bust.
ness.men of Columbus, Toledo, Detroit, and
Chicago The extent and approximate COM
peleness OF an enterprise which will give
them a new trunk line TO the Atlantic sea-
board. That it is one OF the most substail-
ltial character can assure them. w.

TEE CRY RAILWAY Company are
endeavoring to extend the usefulness
Of their road. So far The road has
bean great loss 10 the oekholders,
every cent put into it by the original
holders having been eaten up in inte.-
eat. A large amount OF labor has
been bestowed upon it gratuitously
Ihs prospect now, however, of it's
becoming paying road is looming up.
The proposed branch OIL Spruce street,
when completed may add 10 the re-
ceipts on the Fourth street line aud
the proposed extension to the Ninth
ward would no doubt yield good re-
turn from The start. Whether the
lines pay or not they are a great con-
venience and confer substantial bene-
fits. The extension to the h inth ward
ought to have been built two or three
years ago, and no doubt would have
been now doing service had The pro-
perty holders been as liberal as their
own interests called for. The traye,
beyond Tenth street has greatly in.
creased during the past two years and
~ buildings are being rapidly erected
In that direction it is likely to in.
crease still faster.

ME-. WINDoM has laid down his pen
and abandoned his desk In the rrea-
sury building. But Mr.. Morgan has
not swan been heard from, and NO one
seems to know exactly where he is or
what he intends to do. When Mr..
Window was told that his authority
continued until his successor had
arrived and was qualified, he remarked
that there was two opinions on that
subject. He did not resign to take
sfkect on any prescribed future day,
and - the senate had confirmed ex-
Governor Morgan, of New York, his
authority had terminated and with
that he deemed his official services
also at an end, and with that rode off .

Secretary is found and safely conduct

years Of age, and Of course moves
slowly. But being man with many
millions he can afford to take his time
and let the affairs Of the country wait
until he Is ready to put on his glasses
and observe the direction OF affairs,
that are, SO the Stalwart newspapers
say, TO be pretty much under the
orders of Conkling and Grant.
Later kilograms to-day say that Mr..
Window has reconsidered his former
declarations and now proposes to con-
Time 10 perform he duties of Secre-
tary until his successor is duly in
stalled, while other kilograms and
rumors report ex Governor Morgan as
having finally been found and an
nouuced that he could not be prevailed
on to accept the Office. SO it appears
that all the trouble of General Grants
ride 70 Washington and the contirma-
tion by the Senate goes for nothing
1t In well that Governor Morgan does
decline to be Conkling's tool.
