The ReadiuSters' platform adopted at
the Virginia Convention is not charac-
terized by any originality or evidence OF
change of heart. In Its second clause
the regulators declared: 1--WE reassert
our purpose to settle and adjust our
State Obligations on the principles ofthe
bill to re-establish public credit known
rs the RIDDLEBzRGER bill, passed by the
last General Assembly and vetoed by
the Governor. The platform is quite
an extensive one in other respects,
but the remaining sections are
mass OF high sounding, but
non-committal geseralities, which may
mean anything for votes and nothing
when the organization is asked to re.
deem its pledges. 1t is the same old
tsnacity OF dishonest purpose, the
first gave the Rea'ijusters an ephemeral
influence in Virginia, and it is a warn
ing that the honest men OF the State
have vet dangerous and dishonest
principle to fight and put down. no mat
ter 10y what name it may be called. The
very name OF reimbursement" has now
a significance from which honest men
shrink, for it has shown through its
prophet, not only that it is erroneous,
but also marketable and corrupt.

SOMETHING OF war in Atlantic cable
rates is promised again. Five wires are
now working, one owned by the French
Company, one by the Direct Cable Com
pany and three by the Anglo American
Cable Company. The last named is
repairing a sixth line. Most Of these
wires are worked On the duplex system,
thus, as the name implies. enabling
them to do twice the business OF single
wires. The new concern, known as the
American Cable Company, belongs TO
jaw Gould, and is putting down two
cables. When it begins its competition

The Stewart Body Theft.

New York, 30.-A city paper, which
has been printing q sensational story
about Stewards body, concludes the mar
rative and editorially sums up as follows:
1t seems scarcely credible that the body
should G-st have been taken to jersey
and buried there, then carried back to
New York again for embalming, and
afterward transported hundreds of miles
in its wanderings through Canada with
out detection. when the whole country
was feyerishly on the watch for clues;
yet this is precisely what occurred.
When the oYertures made through this
paper were submitted to Judge Hilton,
that gentleman found himself IN 8 par
picking situatiUn. Anxious 10 recover
the body Of his dead friend, he was also
eager to secure the perpetrators Of the
robbery, and therefore communicated
with the police authorities. The men
who were capable Of abducting and con-
cealiDg the remains were too wary to be
caught mapping now, and at the first in
dication Of the design to break faith with
them, the negotiations were abruptly ter
minated. Hilton is naturally sverse to
any proceeding which at all besrs the
semblance Of compromising felony;
nevertheless we are satisfied, like the pri-
yate detective whose diary has been
printed. that the body can never .be OBJ
tanned except by scceding to the terms
of the robbers. They know that Hilton
cannot afford to leave the body undis-
covered. The thieves uitiDstum wss
"body returned, reward paid, and no
questions asked.

The CaIifornia Tichborne.

New York, 80 The Herald prints
three columns of ean Francisco dis
patches, purportiDg to be the result of q
conversation with Gen. Barnes regarding
the Tichborne claimant, who is said to be
rsnching in San Diego County. II any
one ss smart as this man evidently is
was playing part he would endeavor to
act it carefully. This man don't and th e
idea never seems to enter his mind thst
any one will believe his right. Then it
is great mistake to suppose that he is
so ignorant and illiterate as reported. He
has the easy, dignifed airs of gentle
man, and SO impreases you by his CONVEX
sstion His handwriting is certainly re-
marksble for that of an ignorant sail
maker, as he is represented to have been.
1t is of that purity of French character so
we'll marked that the ordinary observer
who has ever noticed it will remark the
similarity. l have in my possession
brief statement of the wandering life Of
the present claimant, written by himself,
chronologically, from his earliest recol-
lection to date, which at another time it
might be desirable to publish for the pur-
poses Of study, but as the French and
English are 90 mixed, l withhold it now.

A Strange Fear.

New York. 3O.-The Public says:
Though the wheat crop of 81 be smaller
than that of 80, We find no reason at
present to believe that it will fall below
that of 10, and fear that it will prove
about 100000, 600 bushels. The second
crop has even grown in magnitude. This
we fear because news from abroad does
not now give reason 10 hope that sur
plus of 40, 000, 900 bushels in addition to
the large surplus now on hand can
readily be marketed.
