That Slow Election.

Tie Reading election dragS its slow
length along, and another day has passed
without the deposit of Mr.. Vanderbilt'S
vote which leads many people TO think
that he is contemplating trick of the
heather Chinee and may be willing to
sell his vote TO the Bond party. There
is no manner of doubt that they want it
and are willing to pay we'll for it, but as
yet they do not seem to have been able
to reach the altitude of Mr.. Vanderbilt's
figure if he has one. AS that gentleman
bought his stock to make money, it is
quite likely that he will not let his
friendship for Mr.. Gowen or his regard
for the true interests of the Reading
railroad stand in the way of the ap-
parent present interest of Mr.. Wander
bilt. His best friend would not accuse
him of conceiving any stronger spur to
his action. AS lie don't vote he adver-
tises himself as open for a dicker but
the question is whether the Bond party
have the wherewithal to purchase him.
Probably it is not so much the price Of
his shares he is looking at as certain
trunk line freight arrangements. The
Record reports that he offered the Bond
party and the Pennsylvania railroad his
shares at cost and they would not ac-
eept. If so it was because of other con
ditions attached. They would have
jumped ut the offer if they could nave
raised the money as probably they could
have arranged to do.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. JAN. IL, 1852
MIR. NOlfe'S Party.

The auestion before Mr.. Wolfe and
his party at their meeting in Philadel
phia on Thursday is as to whether they
snail at once nominate their state ticket
or first await the action of the Republi-
can state convention. The argument
for immediate action is that as the party
will not support the ticket settled by Mr..
Cameron's convention there is no need
to wait to see what that will be and
that the movement in opposition to the
Republican machine will gain in force
by a prompt exhibition of its determina-
ton to vigorously and uncompromis-
ingly continue its fight against the ring
domination Of the Republican party. On
the other hand, however, it is suggested
that as the Wolfe people announce them
selves to be Republicans seeking to
purify their pariy,it would better accord
with the fitness of things that they
should await the action of the Republi-
can organization that they may he pro-
vided with something to rebel against
before they rebel.
We suppose that in truth it does not
matter great deal whether the Wolfe
candidates are presented now or later. AS
we know that they are to be trotted out
and that the Republican convention will
give them plenty of justification for
their appearance, one time is as good as
another for their exhibition. There is
no desire for compromise between the
factions, and the only way to settle the
little unpleasantness is through the sur
yival of the fittest. Mr.. Cameron. sup
plemented by Mr.. Arthur, thinks that
he has the Republican organization in as
snug condition as he desires it to he, and
is encouraged by his experience in the
last state convention to think that he is
a match for the Wolfe and Democratic
organizations. separated or combined.
Some people who have perhaps not
been sufficiently taught by experience
think that a Wolfe and Demo-
cratic combination is the proper
political movement :; but Mr.. Wolfe's
people on Thursday will be wise
enough probably to pole their canoe as
an individual craft destined to survive
or perish according to the muscle and
skill it displays. 1t has had a promising
career SO far, and the same boldness and
singleness of purpose which thus far has
safely taken it through the troubled polit'
ical waters will best preserve to it its
life and give it IA prosperous voyage and
kind harbor.

Robson In Clover.

The Chicago Times is struck by the
completeness of the arrangement to put
Mr.. Robson in his old clover field in
the navy, where lie found such rich liv-
ing in the company of his friend johnny
Roach and the other patriots who fur
nishcd naval supplies. Mr.. Robson, we
believe, does not claim to have any very
economical ideas about naval eXpendi-
lures nor does he demand consideration
for the extraordinary cleanness oe his
hands after the naval appropriations have
passed through them. Mr.. Robeson had
hardly two dollars to rub against each
other when he became secretary of the
navy and did not spend less than thirty
thousand dollars year while getting
eight thousand as salary. Consequently he
made much money while secretary.
Probably he proposes to make some as
member of the House. He is well fixed
for browsing in the navy field, as the
Times says:
He is member of three committees,
appropriations, naval affairs and expendi
lures in the navy department. AS mem.
ber OF the appropriations committee he is
assigned to the Subcommittee in charge
of tho naval appropriation bill. Thus he
is nautical Cerebus, with three heads
upon a single trunk. As a member of the
naval affairs committee, he suggests what
legislation is desirable as member OF
the appropriation committee. he grants
the desired amounts; and, finally, as
member of the committee to investigate
expenditures in the naval department., he
examines and approves the expenditures
recommended and made.

INCREASING excitement in the Father
land over the emperor's rescript bids
fair to find its parallel in this country
where from all accounts the German
population are becoming daily more ex-
ercised over the portentous event that
already is casting its shadow before. BY
the signs of the times it appears very
strongly that our Irish fellow-citizens
are no longer to have a monopoly of the
agitation with regard to affairs beyond
sea that to a greater or less extent has
been prevailing throughout this country.
The view taken Of the pronunciamento
in Germany seems to be that it is so " un.
constitutional as to amount to reyolu.

ANOTHER FIRE.
COhO Il Wileys Lumber House Burned
Water Fight Between riremen.

COllO Il Wileys Lumber House Burned
Water Fight Between riremen.
This morning between 12 and 1 O'Clock
Il one-story brick building situated in
Coho & Wiley's lumber yard, was dis
covered to be Oh fire. 1t was filled with
pine flooring boards, walnut and poplar
sawed lumber, and over a car load OF
boards, sawed into the proper length for
making tobacco cases, technically known
as Shocks" In the loft was nearly
new sleigh worth $3.50, belonging to Mr..
Coho. The interior of tho building was
entirely burned out, the roof fell in and
all the contents were destroyed. The loss
on the building is probably $500. nothing
but the bare walls remaining. The con-
tents of the building were worth about
$500. There is an insurance in the British
America, of which Bausman & Burns arc
the local agents, of 5000 on the building
and $3.50 on the contents.
1t is not positively known how the fire
originated, but it is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary. Two Of
Coho s. Wiley's employees were at work
in the building until half-past 8 o'clock,
making tobacco-cases. They had rail
road lantern and a lamp hung against the
wall to give them light while working, but
these were carefully extinguished before
they left the building. They had no fire
in the building.
The tiremen were. promptly on the
ground, and the Union and Washington
steamers went into service-the former on
the north and tire latter on the south of
the burning building. They prevented
the flames from extending to the frame
wagon shed built against it, and to several
adjacent piles of lumber. After the roof
of the building had been burned through
the Union tiremcn mounted a high pile of
lumber and attempted to direct stream
into the building. Occasionally they over
shot the mark and drenched the" Washy"
boys. who were on the opposite side. After
warning the Union several times to cease
throwing water upon them, the Washy
boys moved around to the west end of the
building and directed their stream upon
the lumber pile upon which the Union
men were standing, sweeping them off as
though they had been chaff. There is no
telling how the water war might have
ended had not Assistant Engineer Harry
Howell run to the rescue, and by virtue of
his authority put stop to it. Both COM
panies will probably be fined, and the
friends of a paid fire department will find
in the incident another argument in favor
of the abolition of the volunteer system.
