PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

Four pounds of gold have been collect
ed from the SCOT of the chimney of the
Royal Mint in Berlin.
The heir to the italian crown, Prince
Victor, Emanuel, is described as one of
the handsomest and most accomplished
men of his station in life. Although
near thirty years of age and widely
travelled, he is yet unmarried. He is
liberal in his political views, versed in
several languages, amiable and intellec-
tual and generally and justly beloved.
Great preparations are being made in
Weimar, once the home of Goethe and
Schiller, for the celebration of the golden
wedding of the grand duke and grand
duchess of Sake Weimar, which occurs
this year. The grand duke who is one of
the handsomest princes in Germany, IS a
brother of the late Empress Augusta,
wife of old Emperor William. He is ex-
tremely popular with his subjects, and
has endeavored throughout his life to
maintain the reputation Of Weimar as D
literary and artistic center.

On the contrary we think we can safely

Hills "snap" convention comes off at
Albany today. There is no manner of
doubt as to what its action will be. 1t
will choose unanimous Hill delegation
to the National Democratic convention,
and, if Hill deems it wise, the delegation
last. There may be enough Cleveland
men present to utter feeble protest, but
there will not be enough to interfere in
the slightest degree with the programme
which has been laid down. 1t is said
that Hill has prepared harmony
speech to be delivered to the convention
after all its work is done. In this oliver
ance Hill will point out how to promote
harmony by straddling the silver ques-
ton and the tariff question, and all other
questions concerning which there is an
existing difference of opinion; except the
question of the Presidential candidate.
On that there will be no straddling. Hill
has very definite and pronounced ideas
on that point. The effect of the conven-
ton upon the Democratic national con-
vention remains to be seen. If Hills
delegation represented anything APP
preaching unanimous feeling on the
part of the New York Democracy in
favor of his nomination, the chances are
that the national convention would defer
to it even to the extent of nominating
him. But the method by which it has
been obtained has been so thoroughly adj
vertised and has been shown to be so
tainted by trickery that Hill will not be
able to convince the national convention
that he is the choice of New York, or
that he can get the substantially solid
support of the Democracy of that state
on election day. The most he will be
able to do will be to show that no other
candidate from New York can do any
better than he. That is to say he will be
able to show that it will be quite as risky
to nominate Cleveland as to nominate him,
with the possible effect of leading the
convention to seek candidate outside of
New York.

REPUBLICAN CAUCUSES.
Anybody May Be Voted for Whether His
Name is ON the Ballot or Not.

To the Editor of the Press:
Having been requested to explain more
particularly the manner of voting at the
caucuses to be held on Wednesday eve
ming, and to indicate more clearly than is
explained in the CALL whether any but
those whose names may be printed on
the ballot can be voted for on the same
ballot, will you kindly insert the follow
ing explanation?
The form of the ballot, the arrange
ment of the names thereon and the man.
ner of voting by placing cross (x) OPP
posite the name of the person you vote
for, will be precisely the same as that
used at our last caucus one year ago.
The names of candidates for the various
Offices, which are printed on the ballots,
are those who by party usage are entitled
to denomination, and also those who
present petitions signed by twenty-five
Republican voters who reside in the ward
where the candidate resides. Any candi-
date presenting such potion before 8
o'clock o. m, Monday, February ed, can
have his name printed on the ballot. This
rule of the committee does not prevent
any person from being a candidate at the
caucus, but if his petition is not received
by the time above stated his name will
not be printed on the ballot. Any voter
desiring to cast his ballot for other candi-
dates than those whose names are printed,
will write the name of his candidate on
the ballot below the names which are
printed and make a cross opposite the
name so written.
The committee simply furnish the bal
lots, designate thereon the different
classes of officers to be nominated, and
print on the ballots the names of those
who come within the rule adopted by the
committee, and require all candidates to
be voted for on one ballot. This rule
does not deprive any one of the privilege
of voting for whom he pleases. If the
names printed do not suit him, all he has
to do is to write the name or names of
his candidate or candidates on the ballot.
This method of nominating our candi-
dates was tried for the first time at our
last municipal caucuses and apparently
gave general satisfaction.

The opinion of Judge Cullen in the
Emans contempt case sets forth in clear
and impressive manner the facts in the
conspiracy to steal the Duchess county
senator and with it the New York Sem
ate. 1t shows that the conspirators were
Gov. Hill, Frank Rice, secretary of state,
and Judge Maynard, the man recently
appointed to the New York Court of APP
peals, and that the act which ensured the
success of the conspirators' plot was the
abstraction from the secretary of state
Office of the corrected returns from
Duchess county. This act was per-
formed by Maynard. Judge Cullen's
opinion describes case of larceny which
the grand jury can hardly fail to take no.

The present Tory government of Eng
land is evidently nearing its end. 1t was
already under a weight of obloquy which
it could scarcely bear, when the Irish
land bill was loaded on to it, with its ris
diculous provisions. This bill is appar.
entity the last straw which is destined to
break its back, compelling it either TIC
resign and turn over the government to
the Liberals, or to dissolve Parliament
and appeal to the people.

state of mind The attitude of the Re-

Of strict neutrality. They should give
the warning factions all the opportunity
they want to fight their differences to a
