"Patronage" in Old New York.

In the early part of the last century
New York was not only the most
thoroughly English city of the colo
MES, but the most loyal to the crown.
Her merchants were intimately con-
nected with those of the trading cities
OF the mother country. Many of them
were English born, or the sons of
Englishmen. The political diyis-
ions of Great Britain had their coun-
terparts in America. There was a keen
rivalry for posts of honor in the state.
Feeling was high and warm, and was
sometimes carried into social gather
ings. The most noted of these dis
cussions was the well-knOwn struggle
between the old colonial party, head
ed by Rip Van Dam, leader of the
Dutch element, and Colonel Lewis
Morris, on the one side, and Cosby,
the governor OF the province. The
occasions for the public display were
the city festivities on the coronation
anniversary in 1875, and the birthday
of the Prince of Wales the same
month. The governor entertained
his following at the Fort, which was
the residence; but the opposition, not
to be OutdOne in loyalty, had cele-
bration of their own. The scene of
this festivity, which was an event of
moment in the history of the colony,
and may indeed be considered at the
point of departure between the parti-
sans Of prerogative and the upholders
of popular rights; was the Black
Horse Tavern, which stood at the
south corner of Garden and Smith
streets now Exchange Place and
William street., near the Old Dutch
church.
In the court party, which gathered
at the governors residence, were no
doubt his adherents in the council,
Golden, Van Horne, Provost, Ken
nedy, and De Lancey, with their
friends and relatives, many of whom
held high offices under government.
The crown understood the power of
patronage, and used it with a
single eye to the maintenance
and increase of the preroga-
tive. The opposition, which met
at the sign of the Black Horse, was
headed by Rip Van Dam, the great
Holland chief, who may we'll be
styled the last of the Dutchman, and
around him clustered the powerful
Pres byterian or Dissenter families of
Morris, Livingston and Alexander

How Beck Got Fair Play for a Darkey
Boy.
Cincinnati Conn ercial Gazette
An interesting story is current here
about Mr.. Beck in the early days of
his life in Lexington. He was always
keen to take the side of the weak
sgainst the strong. On one occasion
he offered to thrash whole circus
company, in the slavery days, when,
In circus, call was made for VOlun-
Ieers to ride a trick mule. Fifty
dollars was offered to anybody
who would stick on. A little darby
came forward and mounted the mules
back. After going around the ring a
few times the mule began a series of
tactics to disIodge his rider. But the
little darby stuck like wax, and it
soon became pretty plain that the
mule unaided could not get him off.
The ringmaster, thinking himself safe
in maltreating a friendless negro boy,
came up and gave his colleague, the
mule, several sharp cuts with his
whip that sent darkey and mule over
in the sawdust.
Mr.. Beck saw the fraud. He
jumped down from his seat, dashed
into the ring, and catching the ring
master with very persuasive grip,
administered some Jacksonian Ian
guage to him, and demanded the
money for the boy. The ringmaster
showed fight. This was an easy mat
ter, but it did not look so easy when
the whole circus company took sides
with the ringmaster. The spectator
Immediately sided with the man who
had championed the friendless little
darkey. The money was paid over
to the boy.

ORR BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE.

In its issue to-day The DISPATCH gives
illustrations of two new business blocks,
which show the rapid improvement in the
commercial architecture of the city. These
additions to our business are the Arbuthnot
building, on Penn avenue, and the Fergu-
son building, on Third avenue. Both, as
can be seen from the illustrations. will be
of the finest and most ornamental character,
and will greatly improve the localities
where they are constructed.
The erection Of this class of blocks marks
the revolution in our business architecture
which has taken place in the past few years.
Pittsburg was rather slow to begin the con-
struction of large and modern business
blocks; but the movement which commenced
with the Lewis, Bissell, McClintock and
Arbuckle buildings has gone on until it has
established q new era in business
construction. 1t is hardly necessary
to 60 over the full list of structures which
have been put up in the past
few years, or to do more than name
such fine examples of architecture as the
German National Bank, the Fidelity build
ing, the Hussey building, the Westinghouse
building, the Masonic building, or any one
of a dozen others that could be specified, to
show the change from the days when the
iron fronts were considered the triumphs Of
mercantile architecture.
OF the two new buildings noticed to-day
the Artbuthnot building is significant as in
dicating the extension Of the wholesale dry
goods trade to degree that calls for the
erection of one Of the largest and loftlest
buildings of the city to accommodate it. The
Ferguson building will be decided addi.
ton to the Office buildings of the city. Both
also illustrate the extension Of the business
area of the city to quarters which few
wears ago were considered wholly outside
the boun ds of the eligible business section

THAT PROPRIETARY CLAIM.

A special article elsewhere gives consid-
erable space to proving that the United
States has never laid claim to the sovereignty
over the waters of Behring's Sea, and sue
ceeds rather thoroughly in demonstrating
the conviction of the writer that the only
absolute rights which the Government has

within three miles thereof. The logic of the
article as to the rights of the United States
appears quite strong; but the statement as
to the past attitude of the United States
Government is not quite frank.
The United States may not have formally
declared the claim to sovereignty Of the
open waters of Behring's Sea; but it has
practically done SO by every seizure Of
Canadian vessels. The right of the United
States to the islands is undisputed; but
every seizure OF vessels and every order
looking toward seizure has rested on the
claim that the killing Of seals in that open
ocean is poaching on the domain of the
United States Mr.. Blaine even made a
tentative effect to represent that as some
thing 90 much against morality as to be akin

whelming evidence before they can alter
the opinion based on the accepted expert
ence of 4 century. It is hardly disputed
that carelessness OF Q criminal degree may
transmit blood diseases by vaccination; but
it is no less the experience of civilization
that reputable and scientific physicians
take such precautions as to make the danger
almost an unknown ane in actual prac-
tice. As to the dispute about the pro-
tectiFe nature of vaccination, perhaps the
most convincing test is the scourge which
smallpox has been to savage or half-civil-
lied people where vaccination is unknown;
and the rapid removal of that scourge when
ever vaccination has been introduced.
1t is not likely that vaccination will be
abandoned on account of the agitation
against it, but the discussion will probably
be beneficial in strengthening the knowl-
edge of the public on the reasons for relying
upon that precaution against disease
which was once the scourge of the world.

to piracy; but that theory was not long-lived
enough to be worth more than mere mem
tion.
These past claims are, however. of less
importance, from the fact that the United
States has practically abandoned them BY
requesting Great Britain to enter into an
agreement for the preservation Of the seals.
By so doing it at least valves any claims OF
proprietorship in the waters of Behring Sea,
and rests its policy on the broad ground
that the United States and Great Britain
are equally interested in protecting the seals
from extinction. On that branch of the sub
ject Mr., Blaine was as strong and oonvinc-
ing as he was tentative and weak in his at
tempt to establish the right of the United
States to suppress Canadian sealing as
contra bonos naores.
But the doctrine of exclusive proprietor
ship, which was so prominent in the news
paper discussion Of the past few months, is
entirely thrown aside by this review OF the
subjec., and the conclusion that II the
United States Government cannot persuade
Great Britain to come to an agreement the
only course left to it will be to build fence
about the Pribylov Islands.

cQUAYs RESOLUTION.

NEW YORK Press (Rep): The timidity dis
played regarding the Federal elections bill, as
shown by the number Of votes claimed for
Senator Quay's resolution emitting it from the
definite order of business for the immediate
future, is not likely to please the great mass Of
earnest and intelligent Republicans.
NEW YORK World (Dem.): Senator Quay's
hostility to the force bill Is that of practical
politician. If Mr.. Quay had not a clearly de-
fined method of carrying elections. it is proba-
BILE that he would have favored the design in
vented by Lodge, Reed, Hoar and others who,
compared with Quay as politicians, are mere
babes.
NEW YORK Sun (Dem-I: Nothing stranger
than the present situation can easily be imag-
ined. Within few weeks the tariff enthusiasts
of the Republican party have denounced as
traitors to the tariff cause both Secretary
Blaine, who sounded the keynote of the last
Presidential campaign and formulated the
party's tariff policy, and Senator Quay, who
saw to it that the Republican candidate
for President was elected.
NEW YORK Tribune (Rep.): Senator Quay's
resolution surrenders the election bill in con-
sideratjon Of withdrawal of Democratic op-
position to the passage Of the tariff bill. Pro-
fessedly, it is prompted by anxiety that the
tariff bill should not be beaten by delay. II
Senator Quay had not been absent from his
seat much of the time, part of the delay would
have been prevented. The bill can not be
beaten or long delayed without the assent Of
some Republican Senators.
BosToN Herald (Dem.); Mr.. Matthew ..
Quay, too, IS among the prophets, He
tells the Republican Senators Just what the
Herald told them day earlier; namely. that it
is bad policy to attempt to pass the federal
elections bill at this session. and he offers the
same advice which did the Herald. TO the effect
that they postpone the measure. Mr.. Quay
does not say that this is equivalent to It's aban-
donnent, but he doubtless knows as much. 1t
seems to us that our Republican friends should
heed Mr.. Quay's warning. He is nothing II he
10 not sagacious, in . political sense.
DETROIT Free Press (Dem.): And now to
have him Quay declare the abandonment OF
the force bill ''for the present session" Is lit
tie too bad. The extreme party organs have
again and again insisted that the adoption of
this measure, or one of similar effect is vitality
necessary; that the party Is pledged to IL and
that those who are responsible for failure to
carry out this pledge will be remembered 70
their disadvantage. But all of Belden's prods
and the appeals OF the press have not been
enough to carry the iniquitous measure
through, and 1t is dead in the house Of Its
friends
