a Shippers Invention.

The American ship st. Paul. Cap
tain Herbert H Williams, Is now
loading s cargo Of general merchan-
disc at Steuart-strest Wharf for New
York. When the ship was on the
passage ont here one Of the crew
jumped overheard. The ship was
going ten knots an hour 81 the time.
Just Is the man jumped the cook
threw overheard g bucket OF greasy
Stops i life presarver was cut adrifr
and aS soon as possible the ship hove
TO and q boat was put out to pick up,
If possible, the would-be suicide.
The man nor the buoy could not be
seen from the deck, but the grease
thrown by the cook could plainly be
diseerned. Captain Williams told
his boats crew to steer for that and
they did 50. Just as they came TO
the spot the man, who made no effort
to save himself, sank. Appreeiating
the fact that grease or oil on the
water can be seen at a long distance,
Captain Williams set his brain To
work and devised an oil reservoir to
be attached to life floats, buoys,
ifepreseryers, Eferafts and other con
structions for supporting bodies in the
water and preserving life The res
eryoir Is attached to the raft, buoy or
hfepreserYer, and has q novel outlet
where oil may escape automatically.
no matter IN which way the float IS
turned by the action Of the waves
The object Is. by means of the escap-
ing oil. to calm the surrounding water
sufficiently to enable the float TO be
seen at q longer distance than it would
otherwise be, and also TO provide q
calm space for the better preservation
OF life. Life rats and stationary
buoys have heretofore been provided
with oil reservoirs having a eompli-
Gated system Of cocks, valves and out
lets worked by hand, but this is the
first invention of the kind applicable
to the rng-b1oys used on ships and
working automatically Capt Will
Jams yesterday received letters patent
on his invention from Washington
and 1t has proved subject Of great
interest to merchants and ship-mast-
ers now IN port Call.

THE REMOVAL or LIBBY PRISON.

A good deal has been said ana written
about the proposed purchase and re-
movsl. from this city TO Chicago, OF Libby
prison. and a number Of opinions have
been expressed as to the position which
this city should take regarding this
scheme OF certain Northern specula-
tors TO make money out OF relics
OF the late unfortunate war between
the States. On one side II Is
contended that our people should
protest agans, the removal OF the prison.
because II will be standing recollection
OF the war, which will be used by the
enemies OF the South 10 fasten stigma
upon her fair name On The other, 1t Is
claimed that If the Northern people pre-
fer to purchase Southern prisons, and 50
perpetuaie the places made memorable
on accoun, of the large number oil
enemies which the South, single handed
and alone. was fble TO capture from the
world which had combined against her,
they should be allowed perfect liberty TO
do so.
So far MS the stigma which the propos.
ed removal of Libby Prison would cast
upon the South, we fail TO recognize It..
II would be rather monument TO
Southern valor and manhood, when it Is
remembered that the South, with all the
tremendous odds against her, was able
10 cope so successfully with her enemies,
that she could I'll her prisons without
any trouble And as to the alleged cruel
treatment prisoners received, II Is a mat
ter Of established history that the South
ern captives al Fort Delaware, Point
Lookout. Johnsons Island, and else
where in the North, Jared much
more hardly, and experienced much
greater mortality than did the Northern
prisoners at Belle Isle, Libby, or Ander
sonvile. This was conclusiyely shown
In the United States Senate by official
statistics some years ago when Hon
Ben Hill OF Georgia made his famous
reply to James g. Blaine, who was rash
enough to touch on so delicate subject.
Still, while the proposed removal OF
Libby Prison would eventually result IN
a tribute to Southern manhood, and In
shame to the North itself, II is not desir-
able that il should be consummated. We
are now a reunited country. The South
made a gallant fight for her principles.

prefer TO rae all buildings calculated TO
keep alive sectional prejudice. II she
does not desire this, but had rather per-
petuate memories that had better be for
gotten, the South has nothing TO fear,
and can well utilize the capital which she

memory OF the Usage Of Grsmercy
Park" that moved the Democratic heart
20 its inward depths In this lightning
age whole country flashes its sparks OF
thought on group at banquet, and the
orator present Is not more potent TO
move the minds o. men than the politician
who throws into the group a brilliant
idea BY letter or By wire.
From the President and several mem
bers of the Cabinet the messages indt'
Gated that there was not quite as much
"Mugwump" in the Administration as
some people think, and that the party
spirit of the Democrats has its strong
hold in the power constituted by ma.
Ioriiy OF the people in 1884. Mr.. Tilden
showed himself wise man, a patriot, and
q statesman, aud his figure In history will
represent the regeneration and rescue Of
the country from Republican misrule.
Mr.. Cleveland was the accomplishment
of the Democratic victory OF 1876, In
which the sound principles OF the
party triumphed over those theories Of
the Republican party recognized as In
imical to our system OF government. AS
for the personal characteristics that have
been factors IN those great national con-
tests, no man since the war Is thus far so
stamped with the impress of political
sagacity as Mr.. Tilden His cool and
almost infallible judgment was the bal
ance. heel OF his party, and at the
supreme moment 1t prompted him TO
that act which made self-sacrifice more
available for the future success OF his
party than violent appeal to the

has a certain memorial character which
should be remembered as The celebration
of one of the incidents of our history
that Is a warning. II Is true That the
presidency was stolen by one set OF con-
spirators, but We are quite certain that
another set conceived the plan for a sim
liar Joke In 1884. and the scare that came
over their council when they heard the
mutterings of the people will doubtless
convince the Republicans that the Hayes
