N E w YORK.

NEW YORK.
 The political situation in New York is very interesting and is not likely to grow less in- teresting as the campaign advances. On the Republican side there is not that harmony and good feeling which is desirable at Inc beginning of such contest is ahead. Sec retary Folger, whom the Republicans nomi- mated for Governor, is man of much talent and power, and has been very popular. In the election of 1880, when he was the Re- publican candidate for chief judge of the court of appeals, his vote was several thou sands larger than that of General Garfield. But he is now prominent ''stalwart," and has also been accused of being Jay Gould's candidate. There is open revolt against him and his packers in some parts of the State, and it is difficult to see how the objecters are to be conciliated, for they are largely men of principle, and are doing what they believe to be right.
 While the Republican convention did not do any surprising things the Democratic con- vention did. The Democrats, for once acted with wisdom and discretion. They did not quarrel, they made peace with John Kelly and nominated strong ticket Mir. Cleve- land, the nominee for Governor, is now the Mayor of Buffalo. He was chosen on citi. zens' reform ticket, and had large jority. In his office he has conducted himself well, and given great satisfac- tion by his determined opposition to jobs and his generally clean and efficient administration. He is not much known to the party at large nor even to the leaders, and this WAS the chief ele- ment of his strength in convention where the effort was to find man who had never taken sides for or against John Kelly. Gen. eral Slocum, the candidate for Congressman at large, is we'll known Democrat with good war record and good Congressional record. It is expected that he will command the anti monopoly vote and receive the SUD- port of large number of members of the Grand Army of the Republic.
 Thus the fight opens. What will be tho outcome cannot yet be told, but it is quite possible that Gould, Conkling & Go. will be beaten. They ought to be-

Bogus Nmutch Girls.

The Cincinnati Gazette exposes the fact that the "Nautch girls" who travelled with Snelbaker's show were no other than the Vivian sisters, company or weli-known variety actresses, ''made up' and colored to suit the parts. The truth was brought out who had just returned from India, accom- panied by young Hindoo girl, was to give a lecture in the same night on which the ''Nautch girls'' performed. The reporter borrowed the Hindoo maiden and attempted to interview the ''Nautch girls" when the managers owned up to the fraud. The ''Nautch girls" themselves thus relate their experience: "Oh what a dreadful time we had. You see we have been but a short time in the country, having come from England with Jarrett to do the skipping rope dance in Cinderella This engagement came prema- turely to a close, and we were left in New York almost without means. Colonel Snel baker suggested to us-that is we three and Lizzie Latelle, then of our party the Nautch girl scheme. We had never seen a Nautch girl but no matter, a ballet master, one Novissimo, was brought in and we were taught the proper steps, and as the salary offered was large, the farce began. A cos tune was selected modelled after an Egyptian mantel ornament, our faces, arms and busts painted with copper colored mixture, and we were taken heavily yelled to Philadelphia where our debut was to be made. It wal really dreadful We were prisoners for si1 mortal weeks, not even being allowed ts speak to any of the company, who for long
 time actually believed us to be the genuine article. At the Smedley House we were reg
 istered as Hindoos and being left in th
 room by our agent and supposed interpreter
 went an entire day without food or fire, no daring to speak to anyone. Emily tried t. make signs to the waiter. but we all laughe' so heartily at the queer plight we were il that the fellow thought were makin sport of him and hurried out of the room | Our food was served without knives or fork when we did get anything, as Hindoos wer supposed to either eat with their fingers o | chop sticks. So we went from place to place
 wrapped up in huge cloaks, with vsils close | ly drawn, until, as you know. the exposur came, and Nautch girls ceased to be attrat l tiye''

An important accession to the active work CTS for the cause of the Penn ylvania Inde- pendents is MT. Thomas Marshall, whom the Cameron men nominated for Congressman at-large, but who refused to remain on the ticket, and has taken the stump for the Inde- pendent candidates. Mir. Marshall predicates his action on tho assertion that the regulars have broken every plank of the platform upon which they nominated General Beaver.
 London's present topic for discussion in the newspapers is the propriety of shooting burglars. The discussion was started by bold and brutal robbery, in which the in- mates of tho house were beaten nearly to death. Numerous writers say that they sleep now with pistols under their pillows, and will fire without compunction on any intruder; but others raise the legal question whether prosecution for manslaughter may not ensue, and the moral one whether the life of thief may be justifably taken except in actual self defense.

Judge Niblack, of Indiana, who is candi- date for re election to the Supreme court of that State, very confidently expresses the opinion that the Democrats will regain con- trol of the State at the November election, and that there will be gain of three if not four, Congressman. He says he does not believe that Governor Hendricks has any further Presidential ambition. Sergeant-at- Arms Bright agrees with Judge Niblack in his confidence as to the Democratic success in the State this fall, and says that tho sump- tuary legislation of ths Republicans will greatly aid the Democracy. Secretary New, on the contrary, says the Republicans are certain to carry the State.

We commend the following, from the Hart ford Cor taan,t, to the consideration of those interested in the liquor trade: Nothing could make more certain the success of the Republican party in this State than combi nation of the liquor dealers against the license law. They would find that the intelli- gent sentimen nt of the State in both parties is overwhelmingly in favor of properly restrict ing the traffic, which is responsible for most of the crime ana suffering in the State And they would also fl ud that their opposition to the law would result in 8 determination to deal with them more stringently in the future and to convince them beyond the possibility of doubt that Connecticut is not ruled by the l rum sellers. If they want to provoke the contest they gre welcome to begin, and the sooner the better.

A new and interesting method of breaking down coal in miHe without running any of the risks inseparabbe from blasting has lately been discovered in England. It is called ''the lime process" Holes are drilled in the solid coal at in; ervals near She roof and into these are inserted 'tcartridges" of highly con- pressed, very caustic lime. The cartridges are three inches in diameter, and of any de- sired length, but they are made with groove into which 8 small iron pipe can be inserted. The hole being filled and the pipe inserted, it is plugged or tamped to prevent the escape of steam, and number being ready, small force pump is attached by a flexible tube to the pipe and the water forced in which, es caping vets the lime. The pipe is then closed by stopcoc2k and the same operation repeated at the next hole. The first result is the conversion of the water into steam, which itself tends to force the coal down but af- ter time the lime sswells with irresistible power, and, the sprags being removed, the coal comes down in large blocks The oper- ation in Wassring the linre is performed very rapidly, 8 few minutes su.ficing to fire" any required number of cart ridges.

London Growing Better.


 Has London deteriorated or improved dur ing the last thirty years? Babylon has grown bigger has it also grown better? An American who visited our metropolis thirty years since, and has now taken up his resi- dence in our midst, answers these questions in New York paper with decided affirm ative. London, he maintains, is much more habitable and convenient than it was. The underground railway, new bridges across the river, tram cars, and omnibuses practically reduce the ever extending area of the city within manageable limits. The moral i'm provement of London seems to him to have been even more remarkable. Professional beggars, with whom the streets swarHned in 1850, have almost disappeared, and what he calls ''the revolting disabilities of the silent vice of capitals'' are no longer so openly shameless as of old Prize-fghting has gone out of fashion, and, most wonderful of all, Call the politeness of Paris" '" in so far as re- lates to the giving of information to the stranger in the street, 'has been reproduced in London" In short, our American finds that "the lowest strata of our society are being gradually elevated in the direction of healty self-respect, good manners, and better morals"

An Oyster Question.
Hearing Before the Shell Fish Commi.

Hearing Before the Shell Fish Commits
 sioners.
 The Shell Fish Commissioners were Tn session yesterday morning, and heard the case of Luddington vs. Rowe. Henry c. Case appeared for the plaintiff, and John W. filling for the defendant. For some time after the opening the commission was engag- ed in hearing statement from Mir. Rowe. The latter claims certain piece of oyster ground, about 150 acres off the East Haven shore. Several years ago he applied to the town authorities of East Haven for this piece of land, and the application and designation papers ln some manner unknown to him are missing. He again, on provision made by the statute in such cases, had the land desig- mated to him, and since that occurrence up to the present time he has planted about 66, GOO bushels of shells upon that and an adjoining piece of oyster ground
 Mir. Luddlngton's claims are that there is mistake in the map and that the piece of property which Rowe has held possession of is not the one he applied for. Luddington consequently sent in an application for the property that Rowe has been putting SC much money in.
 1 After further discussion Mir. Case asked for continuance for another week to look | up the matter of deeds and titles surround l ing the piece of property under dispute. A l decision will be render ed Monday next.
