The political graveyard will be advertised to let
as vacant if President Arthur continues to eXhume
its occupants at his present rapid rate during the
next few years.
The World says: "If it would have been immoral
and base and all that for the Democrats to secure
the support of Tammany by paying certain price,
we are at loss TO see how 1t can have been vrtuCus
and magnanimous for the Republicans to pay Tam
many a still higher price" The World holds the
dog by the tail. You see there wasn't any question
of price about the matter on the Republican side.
The Ccnturions bought Tammany's vote and
couldnt pay for it after the demand OF the Rcgu-
lars " had been sat iSfed; Tammany forced the
delinquent debtor into political bankruptcy by
voting with the Republicans.
Mr.. George William Curtis remarked in Washing
ton Oh Friday. when asked about the appointment of
Nh Conkling that 1t seemed scarcely probable that
Mr. Conklng would regard with patience the 1ailure
of the Senate TO stamp it with instant approval. Mr..
Conkling has moro patience than he had previous
to his experience with the New-York Legislature.
1t is argued that iIr COnAling will be likely TO
decline the nomination to the Supreme Court be-
cause lie declined the ChicfJustccShip which Presi
dent Grant offered him. But he WAS alive when
President Grant made his offer.

A great deal of acute misery has been IN
ficted on poor people in this city through the
seductive method of bargaining in which pay
ments are made on the instalment plan.
MANY is the sewing machine, half paid for,
that has been snatched away from some poor
seamstress if she failed only once to meet her
weekly dues When the tortured woman rose
to the spirit of the occasion and threw the
agent down stairs, the matter was gen.
orally taken to the police courts, and then the
Justices nearly always found that the agent
was in fault. Still, the bill touching this
matter just introduced in the Assembly is
needed for the protection of women who do
not dare assert themselves, and should be-
come a law.
New-York tribune., 1882-02-27

What sort of renown is it that is won solely
by the so-callcd pluck in which gamecock or
a bulldog surpasses any of the walkers Inc
beast and the fowl fight literally to the
death. If success does not bring the pedes-
trian any reputation worth having, TO most OF
them it brings little money. With few ex-
ccptions they are handled by hackers VINO
have them wholly in their power, who put up
the stakes, pay the expenses, pocket tho
profits and too often sell out their men.
Honest prize-fghts are things of the past ana
walking matches about which there is no taint
of suspicion are becoming extremely rare. LIE
sooner we see the end of them the better.

Mr. Minis recent discouraging uttcrances
about religion will seem to be of more weight,
even to himself, when he notices that at least
three preachers in this neighbOrhOod yesterday

ST. JoHN's. N. F., Oct. 9.-The steamer Herder,
Tischbein master of the Hamburg-American Packet
Company's line with mails passengers and general
cargo. from New-York bound to Hamburg, ran
ashore at the eastward head of Long Beach, few
miles west of Cape Race early this morning. while
dense fog prevailed. The passengers and crew
were landed without accident
The Herder left New-York on the afternoon OF
Thursday last aud had fine weather up to last even
ing when dense fog set in, and necessary precau-
tions were taken TO avoid accidents II possible
EVERYTHING went on as usual and no danger was
anprebendel until o'clock this morning, when the
shin Suddenly and before her officers were aware OF
her nroximity to land, ran on the rocks lmmedl-
ately eastward of the head OF Long beach,
about three miles west OF cape Race
The passengers and crew were all landed safely al
daylight in the eight boats belonging to the ship
and are now being well cared for by the few fam
lies living near the scene of the wreck.
The passengers aud crew speak in the highest
terms of Captain Tischbein and the officers VINO
were remarkably cool and self-possessed through
out. Inc baggage Oi lub pdS>cuBclo jill VIZ
mails. consisting OF seventy-six bags, were saved.
The ship is certain to be total wreck, but 1t Is
believed that some of the cargo will be saved IN
good condition. Men just from the wreck report
that the Herder lies across small cove, with her
starboard side completely under water There
is little probability OF the hull breaking up so long
as the wind continues from the present point
west; but should il veer any further
to the westward heavy sea would be sure to heaVe
in and make it impossible to do anything worth
while III the way OF taking out cargo
As soon as intelligence of the disaster reached
here the German Consul X. Ii. Prowse, hired the
steamer Neptune and dispatched her to the assist
ancc Of the shipwrecked people. She started for
Cape Race at o'clock this evening taking large
supply of provisions the Consul having ascertalned
by Telegraph that only a small portion OF the snip
stores had been saved.

perfectly cool and manifested no disposition 70 as

saved from the wreck, there being only Two houses
at Long Beach. The ship continues III inc same
position some fishing boats are gathering around
but more of curiosity than for any otner cause
and no danger of an attempt 10 NEEDLE with the
cargo IS apprehended. The valuable articles, silver
ware, three cases of specie. etc. were saved lnl5
evening. Nothing remains on board now but the
