New YORK, August IA fire
broke out this. morning in the storage
and weighing house of w. G. Tilgor,
Nos. 10 and IA West street. The
building extends through the block,
divided by narrow yards, 10 No. 2
Washington street. Upon the upper
floors were stored rice, gunny bag
ging, hops, whisky and paper stock,
belonging TO different merchants.
Upon these the flames fed and
spread with great rapidity,
and when the flames were got
under control and nearly extin-
guished most of this was destroyed,
and the building badly wrecked. The
cellar, in which was stored seven
hundred barrels of molasses, was
filled with water. The total dam
ago is estimated at $4,000, up
on which there are various
amounts of insurance held by own
ers of the stored material. Among
the principal losers, are b. ii. How
ell, Son & Co., owners of the molas-
SEES, A. X. and B. T. Thurber & Co.,
who had 100 barrels of rice stored
in the burned building, Cobal
Dowles lost 1000 bales of gunny-
bags, Penticost & Tarr, a quanty OF
gas pipes, and Geo. Watson, Jr,, a
stock of paper. The building be-
longed to the Stephen Whitney es-

The Democrats attempted at Albany to run
with the hare aud hold with the hounds with
what effect remains to he seen. They shut the
door in the face of Tammany Hall, and then
tried to placate Mr.. Kelly by nominating his
friend. Mr.. Purcell.
The other nominations do not call for much
comment. save, perhaps, that of Augustus
Schoonmaker for jude of the Court OF
Appeals. which is creditable one. Mr.. Lap
ham. of Penn Yam, The nominee for Con-
troller. is an obscure country banker Mr..
Maxwell. who goes upon the ticket for Treas
urer, is a rich maltstcr of Batavia, unknown
outside the politics of his county. Mr.. Par
menter, the candidate for Atorney-General,
is a Troy lawyer of no particular reputation IN
his profession, whose nomination was brought
about solely by the efforts of Mayor Murphy IN
his behalf. II maynot I've ont OF place here to re-
mind the reader that Murphy has just been cited
To appear before the Governor To answer
charges of malfcasance in Office. If the chief
law officer of the State could he man OF his
own selection it might he u decided advantage
TO the Mayor of Troy in his difficulties with
the State Government. The remaining name
upon the ticket is that of Mr.. Evcrshed, ot
Orleans County, who gets chance to run for
State Engineer by reason of some experience rs
a deputy engineer.
Taken as a whole the ticket is not strong
orc. 1t is clumsily arranged geographically,
three Of the candidates living in the same Sec
ton in the western part of the state. There
is not single name upon it that viii arouse

and not one that viii attract any yo-

Gratis who 90 with their party at all
times. The independent element will not
feel the slightest leaning toward it. As for
the platform, it is an energetic fishing eXcur-
sion in quest of all the issues, real and imagin-
airy, that lie below the surface of politics.
There il scarcely a vcsiige of 0ld-fashloncd
Democratic doctrine in it, save, perhaps, IN
its prating about reform It's adyo-
cacy of a Civil Service system is .rrant
hypocrisy, and its dcuunciations Of mono0rl.rs
is very cheap campaign cap-uap. The ~
ocratc party invented the spoils system, and
its representatives in Congress and State Legls-
laturcs have always sustained every monopoly
that wanted votes badly enough to look for
them in the lobby. In short, the platform is

and vilifed by Democratic journals, Leaders
and workers. 1t must have occurred TO thou
sands of honest voters that the party which was
CAPABLE of hunting and bounding so noble
man as General Garfield, and of boundless ly-
ing and forgery in order to defeat his election
or to cripple his influence aftcrward, was not
worthy of public confidence.
Then, too the grand ideas and lofty aims OF
the dead President have been recognized as IN
the main the aims and ideas which rule his
marty. Men see that his spirit still lives; that
his soul is marching on" They see that his
memory is more powerful than combination
of trained politicians in New-York; that it IS
cherished by Republicans throughout the land
and that bis ideas will have far greater weight
than ever before in Republican councils, since
tbe recent terrible tragedy hasmade them dear
to millions. Thus is it not true that the dead
President still gives weight and wise leadership
to the great party that he loved, and even in his
sileu, grave adds aud will hencefOrth con-
stoutlv add to the hold of that party upon the
confidence and affection of the peopleY 1t was

able that the late President will have similar

THE OHJO FLECTJON

The result of the election in Ohio is a serious
disappointment to the Democratic party.
Little stress should be pla ced upon the ordinary
boasts of organs of that party, as indications
of its real feeling, for they usually think it
necessary to make loud professions OF the ut
most confidence even when they have not the
slightest doubt that their party is about to meet
another overwhelming defeat In this in
stance however, the Democrats evidently be-
lieyed that the money of their candidate. the
sham fight made by the Prohbitionists, and the
indifference of the Republicans would enable
them to shout over "great reaction III the
central State of the North.
Said one of the shrewdest tnd most distin-
guished Democrats in the country, while Presi-
dent Garfield lay battling with death: 90 The
"politcal future rests with the doctors. If
q they save Garfield, the Democratic party is
{" dead. If he dies, we have a good chance"
This was the speech of a warm-h hearted and
kindly man, who admired the late President
greatly, but whose interests, ambitions and
conceptions of public duty made him an un-
flinching Democrat. He knew, and in private
confessed, that James A. Garfield, recovered,
could not be beaten. But he believed that
Republican GuaITels, distrust Of President
Arthur, and the apathy common in " of years,
would give victory to the Democrats if Presi-
dent Garfield should die There were many
Democratic leaders who privately held the same
belief, though they did not confess it even in
personal conversation. This theory has been
put to the test. 1t turns out that there is some
mistake about it, The Democratic party shows
more apathy than the Republican. Its mem
bers even when stimulated by liberal expendi-
tues and jealous work, fail TO cast their usual
vote Defeat III Ohio, as clear-headed Demo
Gratis begin TO suspect, means defeat in New
York and elsewhere.
Why is it that the Republican party, after so
great q bereavement, manifests so much of
steadiness and fidelityY Why is it that tho
Democratic party, instead of gaining doubt
full and close State, finds itself unable to COM
mand its usual vote in "oh years Is it not
because eighty days of great anxiety and deep
thought in regard TO public affairs have
brought about a change in public opnionf e. In
every part of the land men spent those anxious
months in serious reflection. They realized
what sort of man the Republican party had
voluntarily chosen as its leader, and realized
| also how shamefullY he had been slandered

How has it happened that the Magyars have

Irish pcople, which led them TO desire Par

ortline may indeed point TO this conclusion.
But certain lines 0f divergence in the two
cases are not to he overlooked. The Croats

cent home rne under restrictions and to sub
ordinate their interests to those Of the Magyars
lacking in respect for life or property nor in
LOYALTY to the Crown. Ireland has never re-
crivcd concessions from England in the same
spirit of Cancellation. There has been long

has widcncd and disl0yaltY become more IN

renewal of agitation It is an ircpressibe
conflict in which great body Of the Irish

hatred for everything that is English. The
root Of the evil lies deeper in Ireland than it
lav in Croatia. There may be the same lack
Of interest in imperial politics and the same in
stinct for home rule but the resentment for
traditional wrongs is more passionate and the
hatred OF the dominant race more unreasonng.
