leader who has upset many ministries will

The selection OF q Cabinet will be one of the

that II Statham were confirmed 10000 voters
would desert the Bourbon party in Virginia and
go over to Malone. The secret soon travelled
over TO the Republican SIDE 1t was plain that
the Democrats regarded the fight for the
Lynchburg Post Office as a fight for Bourbon
supremacy in Virginia and the whole South.
10 put the affair upon this ground, however,
demanded q confession of want of principle
and greed for Office i'm the Bourbon masses
which Mr.. Johnston would, no doubt. have felt
Illuminated to make if his thoughts had not
been wholly bent upon saving his seat in the
Senate from the ruthless followers of Malone
More than one-tenth of the Bourbon voters in
Virginia, according TO Mr.. Johnston, would de-
sert their party at once If they learned that a
single supporter of the anti-Bourbon ticket
had succeeded in getting Federal Office By
the showing OF Its representative in the Senate
what party it is! Ten thousand of ats men,
bers ready to abandon it for the chance of
getting a post office! The mad rush
was about to begin Ii it was not
stopped. Bourbonisln IN Virginia was doomed:
and if Virginia went the Solid South was broken
up and the hopes of the Democrats for 1884
were blasted. This was the theory upon which
the Democratic resistance to the removal of
the defaulting postmaster proceeded. Mr.
Johnston, no doubt, srecollected the old adaoe
-" For want of a nail the shoe was lost for
want OF shoe the horse was lost; for want
OF horse the rider was lost" The LYNCH
burg Post Office he regarded as the nail in the
horseshoe.
Inc dsgraceful contest made by the Demo-
cratic Senators has come to an end The
Senate has adjourned, and the President
has since made the change in the lynch
burg Post Office which the interests of the
postal service demand. We shall now see
what Mr.. Johnston's 10000 oflce-huncry
BourboDs will do
The Republicans Of Virginia can learn q les
son from this performance of the Democratic
Senators. They see That the Virginia contest
is not a State affair merely. The probable
victory of tho Liberal alliance throws the
Democratic party of the whole country into
cold sweat of alarm. The fright of the
Democratic leaders in Washington is an
admission that the success of the Liberal move
ment led by Malone, Cameron and Lewis
VIII break the power of the Bourbon oligarehy
all through the South. The Republicans can
not now fail to realize the great Importance of
the struggle in which they are engaged. Let
them devote their best efforts to making il
result III an overwhelming victory

Boss" Mclaughlin and his Mayor Howell. of
brooklyn, continually remind us of Boss Tweed
ana his Mayor Hall, and their methods are the
same. ana IN nothing more than in the last at
tempt OF the Brooklyn " Boss" and Mayor to show
that they have reduced the rate of taxation there
Right IN the midst of his pillage of this CITY ten
years ago, Tweed endeavored TO make capital bv
passing bill limiting the of taxation TO two
per cent on the assessment real property and his
boardot Apportionment, including his Mayor posed
as reformers because they fixed the rate at 93 per
cent But at the same time mp went the assessments
to an inoerabe rate; but Tweed did not call public
attention to that method of actually increasing the
income from taxation. Mayor Howell is employing
the same wornout but not forgotten tactics. He
calls attention to the fact that the rate of taxation
IN brooklyn has been reduced hat SAYS nothing
about the heavy increase in assessments. and not
word escapes him in relation 20 his levy of special
taxes upon special industries. History repeats itself
IN the matter of "Bossispnr as in every other mar

Little is known to-day of the details of the
Newark defalcation which was not known yes
terday. The thief now admits that he re-
to have been overdrawn by the Nugents but
the story he tells, as the community dwells
upon it, becomes so difficult of belief that the
feeling grows that man who would steal two
millions would tell a lie, or two perhaps,
about his manner of stealing it. The Nugents
assert that the sum they have received is
comparatively small. The whole story,
especially that of Baldwin's constant store of
checks and drafts signed by Nugent in blank,
is as remarkable as any in the annals of crime.
Nothing seems to be known yet of the actual
condition of the bank. No further light on
the subject can, however, help the position of
the directors and officers OF this bank. They
were men of large wealth and great respecta-
bility, whose names strengthened the instltu-
ton for which they became responsible. They
abdicated their functions in favor Of an en-
ploye, swore to the truth of statements which
they did not know to be true, made examina-
tons which as business men they knew were
not examinations, and, in short were guilty of
that contding carelessness which does as much
damage as dishonesty, and to that extent
deserves to be classed with 1t. They
" trusted Mr.. Baldwin. Why should any man
be " trusted y in that sense in an institution in
which there ought to be such a system of
checks and balances that discrepancies could not
remain undiscovered single day 7 The day will
surely come when such systems will be re-
quired not only by officers who understand
their duties, but be demanded by cashiers and

menters was the most purely speculative nOmi-
nation that has been made in many years Tor
a State Office, and this is only one Of the
speculations involved. If all the rest of the
Democratic ticket was to be elected, Mr.. Par

1.-THE way" These were the sentiments ut
tered on the 18th of June, 1868. by the pa
per OF which William Purcell, the present
Democratic candidate for Secretary of State,
was the assistant editor, and was well I'M
derstood to be the actual editor. Mr.. Purcell
is candidate against gallant Union soldier,
who, at the time The Rochester Union was
declaring that ain the raising of armies
the President overstepped his constitutional
authority" was fighting for his country,
and who. kept on to the end while
Mr.. Purcell's paper fought for the rebels
in the rear. Mr.. Purcell pleads that he did not
become responsible editor until December,
1864. He is welcome to his plea Before the
date he names the paper uttered the opinions
just quoted. After that date it charged the
Lincoln Administration, when the country was
in the throes of the Civil War, with /" treason
able usurpation y and persistent misrule,"
and later hailed the vote of the Democratic
members of the Legislature against the anti
slavery amendment as "arecOrd that viii
stand the test of time and weather the storm
of fanaticism." From one know all. Mr.. Prlr-
cells war record, as it is set forth on another
page, is not a matter of much intrinsic i'm
portance, perhaps; but when the voters of the
State are asked to prefer him for an honor
able Office to man who bravely risked his
life in four years fighting for the Union, Mr..
PurcelPs record as an assistant rebel does de-

Accident.

A young man, 10 years of age,
named Stephen Love, who lives IN
the Sixth Ward, on Fourth South
street, met with a severe-though
not so serious as first reported-ac-
cident on Friday evening. He has
been working on the canal south OF
this city, and was in the habit OF
getting on the train at the crossing
of the railroad track on Fourth
South street, and alighting at the
same place on his return at night.
Last evening he jumped from the
train, as usual, but stumbled and
fell, and the car wheels passed over
one foot, which, but for the heel of
his boot, would have been crushed in
a frightful manner. As it was, he
had two of his toes broken and re-
ceived severe Commissions of the head
and shoulder. He was taken to the
residence of his father and Drs.
Richards sent for, who dressed the
wounds and rendered all necessary
and possible assistance. The doctor
says he will be around all right in a
few weeks.
