The Figure 8 and General Garfield.

The figure seems to have been closely
interviewer in General Garfeld's life. He
was born and died on the 10Th day of the
month"; in the 49th year of his age Fought
the battle of Chicamauga on the 10Th. Was
20 when he entered the army. Died on the
10Th day of his sickness. Elected State Sen
ator in 1859, and United States Senator in
1879. Received on the thirth-sixth ballot
800 votes, which secured his nomination to
the Presidency. The figures 800 were a
prominent feature during the campaign.
Died in the year 1881, which is a multiple of
the figure 8, and which makes if its figures
are added together in pairs.

Native- Born New Workers.

According to writer in the Commercial
Adretiser, native-bOrn New Workers make !
poor showing in the present affairs OF the me"
tropOlis. He mentions, and what is worse
appears to prove it. that the men who make
New York great and noted to-day, came
either from the country, from New England.
! or foreign lands. The city, he says, pro
duces nothing noteworthy in the way OF
science, art. intellect or craftsmanship" No
native New Yorker was ever elected Presi-
dent or Vice-President; no one except Ham
ilton Fish, ever sat in the Cabinet, or on the
Bench of the Supreme Court. In the Senate,
the State has been, for fifty years, represent
ed by men born and generally living outside
the city. The city nov never produces
statesmen, legislators or jurists." Even the
leading commercial men and the financial
kings are carpet baggers." All the promi-
nent editors and newspaper prOprietors are
either of New England or foreign parentage, y
with one or two exceptions. The POstmas-
ters and Collectors, and, latterly, the May
Ors are imported. Nearly ALL the great law
yers are of outside birth and culture. No
native-born New Yorker is member of the
present National or State Government. The
city officials are, with one exception, foreign
born, or natives of other places. All the po-
litical leaders and bosses, on both sides, are
importations No writers of wide fame have
been born in the city for half a century.
NO sweet singers since Halleck, who was,
by no means, magnate. Bryant was an
outsider, and even the small buzzers residing
in the city, who figure as poets in the maga-
zines and an occasional volume, will be
found to be nearly all New Englanders' y
This is pretty hard showing, it must be
confessed but, if the metropolis cannot pro-
duce great men, it has, at least, shown that
it can manufacture them out of the raw ma
terial, or give them a chance to develop

shows plainly to what perversion of judgment

moderation, virtue about as remote from the

efforts to the moral improvement OF the young
and teachil them moderation in all blessings OF

Boom IN BURGLARIEs.-Uns U unsuccessful attempts
were made to burglarze the residences Of MIR.
Phillip Everhard on North Poplar street, George E,
Baldwin, Esq'r, and Mr. Daniel Cobaugh on South
POPLAR streets, Saturday night and early Sunday
morning. In each case the occupants the house
awoke in time to scare the burglars Off Sunday
night when the family Of Rev Kuhns Of the Eng
lish Lutheran church returned home, they found a
window in the back part OF the house open. The
window was never opened by the family, and 1t Is
supposed that a tramp who had begged his supper
at the house that evening returned after dark with
the intention ofTansaCkng the house butwas scared
away by the return Of the family. About two or
thue clock Wednesday morning the residence OF
Mr. Isaac HarteT on South Market street was enter
ed by night ows,whO left when they found Mr.. Har-
Ter had discovered their presence, Entrance was
probably effected through par!or window which
was open; a rear door also open tO be used prob
ably as a means of egress The floors were strewn
with burnt matches, which had been used in ran
sackng the house. The silver service was seen by
the burglars but was not taken. The same morning

north of the residence Of Mr. Harter on the same
