1ILDEN's BLACKSTONE DEAD,
Famous Horse Whose Name Was Ono,
Before "a Committee OF Congress-.

- hOTho whose pmo was Once

Blackstone. tho favorite saddle horse Of tho
late Samuel ]. Tilden. died Of old ugo last
Thursday morning. This famous horse came
OF thoroughbred Kentucky stock and was pur-
chased. together with his driving mate Miller.
by Mr. Tiden from Mr.. Riley about twenty
i've years ago. Blackstone, who was brought
from Kentucky when about seven years old.
was q beautiful animal. sixteen hands high,
black as Jet. clean lmbod. and possessing all
the advantages OF an illustrious pedigree
Mr.. Tilden became extremely fond OF his new
purchase and it was an everyday occurrence
to see the noted statesma n trotting Blackstone
around the Park.
Blackstone had national fame at one time,
when the vote Of Florida was for sale. in De-
cember. 1876. ana Manton Marble was in that
State reporting on the state Of affairs.
Toll Russia to saddle Black stone" was the
concluding sentence of one of tho cipher de-
spatches. The Tribune. which was engaged
afterward in interpreting them. construed this
to mean Tell Tilden to resort to legal pro-
ceedings "-certainly an ingenious CONJECTURE
Mr.. Marble explained before the Potter COM
mittee that he meant things wore going we'll
and that Mr.. Tilden might enjoy his daily ride
At Greystone. tho beautiful place Mr.. Tilden
owned on the Hudson. the old horse passed
his declining years. A short time before Mr.
Tilden's death Blackstone was put upon the
retired list. and since that tme he had been
we'll cared for. Although he outlived all the
other horses that were at Grcystone during
the lifetime Of its owner. tho famous animal
maintained his liveliness nearly to the last.
Said Mr.. Delehanty. who has been employed
at Groystone since the place came into Mr.
Tildens possession:
The old horse acted more like a. colt than
an animal ~ years old. Now and then We
took him out for exercise. and you should
have seen him cover the ground between here
and Yonkers"
When asked IL the horse was gentle he re-
| piled: Well. as to that. all can say Is that
he was Kentucky thoroughbred. and, YOU
know what that N cans. He ran away with Mr..
Ttlden one time in New York. but there was
| nothing vicious about him."
or late Blackstone had been allowed to roam
unmolested IN the pasture. and 1t was there
that Mr.. Dclehanty found him dead last
,:Ws expected t." he said, for he was SO
that the old horse has gone We have buried
him down thers by the river. and. though it's
only horse after all. Il seems as though an

Hill Tonight.

The irresistible power with which the pros
ecs Democratic campaign draws all Demo-
crats into tho contest is shown In tho fact
that tho Hon. DAVID BENNETT HILL will
speak tonight In behalf OF the election OF
GROVER CLEVELAND. There have been
times when the triumph Of party fac
ton has been In too intolcrable conflict
with the principles Of party stability. when
che means contributing to the victory have
COO directly violated tho fundamental rules
Of politics, to leave reason for consistently
denying tho Justice or even the duty OF
'Tuvolt. 1t might be hard to find an occa-
sion moro aggravating in the direction OF
rebellion than the present. when the
Idol OF certain hybrid politicians. who
for seven years have carried on guerrilla
+, warfare in his behalf against the New
York Democrats. adding insults OF the
most extreme grossness through the
person OF Senator HILL himself. has
been made tho candidate. But nll that Is
now suppressed in the past. The Force
bill issue has let loose party sentiment
which has 30 deeply uverilowcd tho entire
field OF politics rs to drown out tho person
ality and the antecedents Of the candidate.
and to submerge every other consideration
foreign to tho main issue. HILL appears
like the Democrat he Is in tho emergency
now threatening his party. to sound the
party war cry and to raise tho party
standard anew.
All honor to DAVID BENNETT HILL and to
the Democracy Of New York!

We areindebted to several correspondents.
and to the editorial stafr OF one New England
newspaper. for interesting Information as to
the authorship OF the poem beginning:
"Irs,de at Table Mountain and m y name is Truthful
JAMES,
lam not up to small deceit nor any sinful gatnea"
Our correspondents agree In asserting with
earnestness. and an appearance OF PLAUSIBLE
ty. that these lines. together with the whole
narrative Of the point of order raised by ABNER
DEAN OF Angels. and the conjunction Of the
lump OF old red sandstone with that gentleman's 8
abdomen. were not originally written by Mr..
CHAnIEs KELLY SHETrERLr Of Utica. Michigan.
who furnished them to tho Denver Netcs. but
by Mr.. BRET HARTE. One Of our correspond
ents goes so far as to assert that he has had In
his possession for at least ten years volume
entitled Comic Poets Of the Nineteenth Cen
tury." which contains tho poem about the So.
cety on the Stanislnus. with Mr. BRET HARTE's 8
name attached to 1t. We see no reason for
doubling the statement OF our friends OF the
volunteer vigilance committee which Is now
after the rascaly SHETTERLY Of Utica, Mich
ignn. Indeed. We may even say that when We
first read In the Denrer Ne,cs tho story OF
Truthful JAMES. the verses seemed to us to
have familiar look. as II we had seen them
somewhere before.

Mr.. Reid and tho Force Bill.

1t Is Interesting to learn Mr.. WH1TELAw
Reds present opinion Of the Force bill
as national Issue.
As reported by the Ne,o York Tribune. tho
Republican candidate for Vice. President
now regards the Force bill as a ridiculous
scarecrow. and tho spectre of Negro DOM
ination as bogy conjured up for campaign
purposes only. There Is not any such
thing" said Mr.. REID In Brooklyn on Sat.
urday night.
When Mr.. WHrTKLAw REDS party was
doing It's utmost to enact the Force bill two
years ago. Mr.. REDS newspaper. the Ne,p
York Tribune, was urging the party to push
tho Internal thing through. regardless of
consequences. The Republican name for
the Force bill was the Elections bill In an
editorial article entitled mo Cause for
Surrender" the Tribune put the Force bill
Issue above all other Issues. and frankly
admitted the main purpose Of that odious
measure OF Federal interference and Fed.

Tho Elections bill." said the Tribune,
" carries Wihin Itself tho assurance of future
TdriD bills by the hundred"
That was on August 15. 1890. Mr.. WHITE
LAW REDS newspaper spoke the truth.
Tho Force bill carried within itself not only
the assurance OF future Tariff bills by the
hundred. but also the assurance OF any
other legislation that tho Republican party
might be disposed to fasten upon the coun-
try. 1t meant perpetual Republican ma
jority In Congress.
1t means the same thing now.
