Since I last wrote, we spent soveral days mo! o at Shuboygan, and among the many pleasant things that wont to maku our visit n dolljihtfiil one, was tho excursion up Lako Micliinan to Manitowoo on tho stoaincr Muskegon. Tlio weathor was lovely and tho water smooth, so that no ono suffered from sea sickness. Tho rldo was about 25 miles each way, nnd wo inado 10 miles an hour. Tho town of Manitowoo is quite an old settlement as thoy go hero. A viliago thirty or roily yoars old is considered quite ancient for this part of tho country. There aro somu very nico buildings in Manitowoo, but certain parts cf tho place look as though tho inhabitants had moved away and forgot to como back. Thero is an evi dent lack of enterprise, and Sheboygan, which used to consider Manitowoo ns something of a rival, has walked away lrom it, the loriner place rapidly in creasing in population and manufac turing interests, while tho latter has stood still. In making tho trip tho steamer runs the ontiro distance in sight of tho western shore of tho lako. vno couiu stanti on mo opposite sm of tho boat and easily imagine himself on tho ocean. Tlio green waters stretch out until thoy seem to meet tho sky in tho horizon. Hero and thero nro ves sels of every description, and away off yonder aro visible tho upper sails ot a schooner, whoso hull is out of sight, giving it tho nppoaranco ot a sunken wreck. At one time the water was dotted with hundreds of sea-gulls, and many of them hovered around tho steamer as wo passed throucli them. Tho lako is not always as peaceful as it was tins day, and woe botido tlio un lucky craft that is caught out on its bosom when tlio wind lashes tho wa ters into a fury. Tho hull of a hcow now lies lngli and dry on a reet ot rocks at Shelioycan,' having been driv en up by a gale several months ago. llic dedication ot tlio now ortjan at Plymouth, of which I spoke in my for mer letter, took place on tlio alst tilt. 1 no cuurcn was crowded uotu morn ing and evening, and the services wero greatly enjoyed by all who participa ted. MII.WAUKKK. Tho city of Milwaukee is built on tho shore of tho lake, and is ono of the most beautiful cities in tho country. It would bo impossiblo to describe it in so brief a letter aa this, nnd I c.tn only alludo to some of its leading features. Tho Soldiers' Homo is a government in stitution, embracing largo nnd elegant buildings and extensivo grounds which aro kept in the best of order. Hero soldiers who have grown gray in tho service ate cared for in their old ago. Tho Plankinton Hotel is said to bo ono of the best in tho west. Tho rooms aro elegantly furnished, and tho dining oom, wlncn has itist been completed, is called the most magnificent ono in this country. People out here never do anything by halves and in tho mat- tor ot hotels they aro not behind. Mil waukee has an efficient paid firo de partment. One day I went to ono of tho ciitrino houses to witness tho drill. The stables aro at ono end of the room where tho apparatus is kept, aud tho stalls aro arranged with doors at tho horses' heads. At 12 o'clock, noon, a tronc sounded, nnd at tho same mo ment tho stall doors wero opened by electricity, and nine horses came out on a jump, each one taking his proper po sition, and in about 10 seconds every thing was ready to start for a fire. Tiiis drill occurs three times every day. Tho firemen have very comfortable quarters up stairs with a bath room, li brary, Ac. In each room thero is a square hole in tho tloor, and a brass polo about four inches in diarnetor ex tends down to tlio ongmo room. Uiasp intr this polo with ono arm tho men slide down with lightning rapidity, and aro all in their places when the horses aro hitched. Tho precision and rapidity with which man and boast perform their parts are truly astonish ing. Milwaukee is celebrated for its beer. I cannot tell how many breweries are here, nor how many barrels are niado a year, but both figures aro large. Al most everybody drinks it, and as licen ses ate granted by tho city authorities, anybody can open a saloon, and yet there is no more, if as much drunken ness as in towns of fowor drinking pla ces and less beer. AN KXCF.1T10N TO TIIK RUI.K. Our Prohibition friends tell us that drinking makes drunkards, and drunk ards mako pauper', and as a general thing, I presume this is true, but a sin gular instance has como tinder my no tice which is an exception to the rule. In tho town of Plymouth, with 1200 inhabitants, thero are 30 or 10 naloons, nnd yet tho corporation has a poor fund of over a thousand dollars on hand, and no way to spend it, because thero is not a pauper in the town lim its. IIUAVKR DAM. Wo spent two pleasant days at this placo, a town about tho sizo of Blooms uurg. It is located 00 miles vest from Milwaukee. Thero Is n cotton mill horu that employs 200 hands, and a number ot other manulacturmp; estab lishmenls. In two things tho pcoplo hero aro ahead of our placo. Thoy have a three story brick town hall, con taining rooms for firo apparatus and companies, council room, aud a hall. This is ono thing. Tho other is that nearly all tho icnces have been taken down, and tho lawns aro kept in fino condition, without fear of intrusion of cattle. They shut them up out here. This is tho other thine;. Eastern civ ilization can learn something from tho west after all, in somo respects. A Fi:V CKI.KIIUITIKS. Opportunites have boon afforded for seeing several men who aro prominent ly before tho peop'o just now. Ono day last week when wo reached tho depot at Milwaukee, wo discovered a mini mlilri'Rsine n crowd of about 100 porsons, from tho rear of a car. The bald, tho bultoii-holo bouquet, and tho squint oyo could not bo mistaken ; it wns that norny-uaiuicu sou oi ion, iien ltntW.

On Sunday morning while wo wero nt tiwnkfnat nt tho I.eland House in (Jhicago, our waiter informed uh that (Jen. Logon was orpeoted in a fow minutes, and we succeeded in catching a glimpse of "Black Jaok.'1 I failed to notlco anything peculiar about him, ex cept that ho did not look as though ho would over bo vice-president of this na tion. Poor man 1 How disappointed ho will bo J Carl Schurz U in this .niniti-v Rneaklni to tho Germans with great effect. He has a strong iutluonco over his countrymen, and tho result of his visit hero will bo felt on election day. CIIICAUO. This is our last stopping placo. Chi cago has more push, nioro bustle, more pork and more wickedness than any other city I know of. It is hard to distinguish Sunday from any other day. Many business places, tho thentres and all tho saloons nro kept open, men wolk on tho streets, and tho crowd that gathers in tho park listou to polit ical speeches in tho afternoon. Talk about reform in politics 1 What Chi cago wants is reform in morals, and if all the foreign missionaries sent to hcaOicu nations from the United States should bo called home aud put to work right hero thoy would have a field of labor opened beforo thorn, not quite so wide, but far more hopeless than India and Atricn combined. Tho exposition now open here, is a succcts. u lemlnds one forcibly ot the Centennial. It is held In tho build ing whero both parties held their na tional conventions. Tho political situ ation still grows encouraging. Carter Harrison is making it lively in this state (Illinois) and expects to be elect ed governor by tho Democrats. A number ol prominent Kepublicans havo recently como over to Cleveland, and tho Democrats will stick to the ticket. Blaine's libel suits against an Indian apolis paper has not given him any ad vantage thus far, and as it is ex pected tlio caso will bo tried m Uclo- ber, he may net a pair of black eyes beforo election day. If not it looks ns though his optics will bo badly discol ored on the '1th of November, suro. K. THE OHIO EEVUELIOAN UOMMITTEE APPEALING TO THE DEAD. The situation in Ohio is bo alarming to tho republicans that they are appeal ing to every ono to come and assist or tho state will bo lost to them. Invita tions aro sent out to all prominent re publicans to lend them aid to stem the tide during this month. In their anx iety to iiielude such persons as tho pco plo might put confidence in they sent tho following letter to Senator Morrill who has been dead for tho past eigh teen months : Sknvtor Lor M. Morrill: Dkar Sir : Tho situation in Ohio is i critical one. The party is in trouble on account of tho attacks on Mr. Blaino as the candidato of tlio party. Your well known character as a pure and upright statesman, and coming from Blaine's own state, you could rofuto tho charges as no ono elso can. We hope you will como to us in this emer gency, and mako ns many speeches as possible. The letter fell into tlio hands of his wife who was so indignant and amaz ed that any republicans should bo ig norant of tho death of lier husband. She at onco sat down and wrote on the back of tho sheet this reply : To Brown, Chairman, Columbus, Ohio : I am surprised and shocked to receive such a communication, i thought ovcry citizen of this country knew my husband was at rest. I am in mourning for him, but, as much as I mourn his death, I thank my 1 athor in heaven that he called him homo be foro the party ho loved so well and did so much for had so disgraced itself as to nommato so wickod nnd corrupt a man for tho highest ofiico within tho gift of tho American people, as I know and my husband know James G. Blaino to be. If ho wero alive ho would not support Mr. Blaine or any such man, even at tho bidding ot his party. (.HART.OTTK lUOKRII.I.. In an inteiviotv in referenco to tho above Mrs. Morrill, said, -'When Gar field was nominated, my husband said to me, sadly and seriously, "My dear, tho Republican candidate will bo elect ed this time ; but unless new methods ire used in the party and now and bet ter men become its leader.', ho will bo tho lait ono. You will live to sec a Democrat elected four years hence. I will not. My husband died ot his de votion to tho party of which ho thus so sadly spoke It is unqucstioiiod that tuc ureaKing uown oi ins neami oaten from his, perhaps, too faithful perfor mance of his duties at tho Treasury Department. Ho was visited by Mr. Blaine at tho beginning of tlio Con gressional investigation into tho Little llock Knilroad bonds. Mr. lilamo as ho did to Mulligan, importuned my husband with tears aud entreaties to save him. When my husband resign ed to go into tho Cabinet it was gener ally understood, and my husband so understood, that uovernor uiinmbor- berlaln would be appointed to fill the vacancy. Instead, and to tho surprise of every one, Governor Connor ap pointed Mr. Blaine, then a representa tive in Congress and under charges in that body, to fill tho vacancy." As Mrs. Blaino intimated, the ap pointment of Mr. Blaino ro tho vacan cy was evidently to savo him from the further investigation and tho inevitabio incriminating verdict of tho committee. Governor Connor had his roward. Ho is now Pension Agent for this stale, tho best otlico next to thu Collector- ship. Blaine and Garfield. A Washington telegiam to Tin Missouri Jleimblicii i says : Tho fol lowing story of President Garfield's sickness, which can bo readily estab lished by several who woro paities to it, shows what somo ot Mr. uartield a most intimato acquaintances havo long known, that Mr. Blaine's claims to having been one of tho murdered pres ident's Biucerost friends aro a falso pre tciiBc, and that in a most trying mo ment ho proved altogether untaithttil. Mr. Blaine, ns is known to all who wero about President Garfield aftor ho was shot was ono of tho first to mako up his mind that lie would not livo. While yet most of tho cabinet and tho attending friends believed he might re cover, Mr. Blaino began to look out for hie own future. Accordingly in August, while Garfield was Btill lying nt the White House, Blaino ono day asked tho different members of the cabinet to meet him for consultation nt his house on au important matter. When thoy wero asomblod ho stated to them his opinion that a caso of pres idential inability had arisen undor tho constitution j that tho president was seriously disabled, aud was not likely to recover for a long time, if ovor. Ho proposed nnd urged, that tho cabinot should agree with him tosmnniou Vice President Arthur to Washington, to Administer tho oath of office to lain, and install him as president do facto, or acting president. This astounding proposition two members of tho cabi net viL'orouslv otmosed. 1 hev declar ed that nothing in tho ciicuinstnucns of tho country or in tlio condition of Presideut Garfield called for such ao tion. Thov urged that tlio mcro know! edgo that tho question of deposing him had beon evon considered would, If it should como to Garfield's cars, do more to dishearten and kill hiui than tho shot of Giilleau. In spile of theso and othor considerations, Mr. Blnitio persisted in advocating his scheme. Somo strong language was used by thoso who took tho Toad in tho oppo sition to Blaine's proposition, It was oven suggested tliat it would bo no better than nu act of treachery to tho wounded president. Secretary Blaino soon found that ho stood alone, and wns reluctantly obliged to drop his scheme. Thero is excellent nuthority for tho stntomrnt that ho took moasiiics to in form Vice Presidont Arthur that ho had wished and proposed to have him installed as president but had been pre vented by tho opposition of tlio rest of tho cabinet. It is also known that at no moment did Mr. Arthur give thu slightest favorablo response to any fea ture of hucIi a proposition. This was tlio first movo in Blaino's game to make a friend of Arthur, and secure himself a placo in Arthur's cabinet by offering his support and service while Garfield was still living and had hopes of ie covery. It was also true that for weeks after Mr. Arthur had succeeded to tho presidency Blaino exhausted all means in his power to retain the posi tion of fecrctnry of state. Moro than a plain hint was required to make him understand that ho could not remain. Ho w;is ready to make any promises of fidelity to tho new chief, but Mr. Arthur would not trust him : but while very civil to him, even so far as to of fer him a foreign mission, ho insisted on his resignation from the cabinet. Eleotiou in Maine. Tho Stalo election in Maine was hold on Monday, and resulted in n lie publican majoiity of 17,000. In 1870 when thero was a straight Democratic and Republican ticket in tho field, tho Rcjiul'lican majority was 15,4-14, which was the smallest majority that had been cast at any Governor's elec tion sinco the organization of tho Re publican party. In 1880 there was a fusion of the Democrats and Green back parties, which resulted in a vic tory for tho fusionists of 190 majority. At tho present election there was but tho two parties in tho field, and tho vote should properly be compared witli tho vote ot 1870. In view of tho fact that Mr. Blaino had pledged himself to vote for tho Prohibition amendment in consideration that the Prohibitionsts should in return cast their vote for tho Republican candidate for Governor, wo would not havo been surprised had the majority reached 20,000. Tho following special correspondence to tho Philadelphia Prei of Sunday, August 21th, will show how important tho Re publicans regarded u victory in Blaino's own State, and with what vigor they pushed tho campaign : "Some idea of tho efforts being put foith hero by tho Republican State Committee, and of tho zeal with which tho whole cam paign is being conducted, can bo gain ed from tho following list of gentle men outside ot Maine, who havo been secured to make addresses in this state. No dates havo been arranged, but thoso prominent speakers havo been positively engaged ; ueneral lioorgo W. Carter of New York, General Jo seph R. Hawley of Connecticut, Con gressman Hiscock of New York, Hon. It. G. Ilorr of Michigan, Hon. Wnr ner Miller, United States senator from New York, Hon. Nelson W.

The Democrats had but fow speak ers in the State, and very littlo money with which to conduct tlio campaign. In fact, all tho money that was used was contributed by tho DemocintH in their own State, whilo Blaino was con tinually urging tho National Commit tee to send up funds for use in his state. In speaking of the majority that tho Republican candidate received the Philadelphia Times thus says ; "This is a littlo more than the regular party majority in Maine. In 1808 the Re publicans carried tho State in Septem ber by 20,00; in 1872 bv 17,000, and in 1876 by 15,000. In 1878 there was again a Republican plurality of 15,000, but at this time'the Greenback split mixed the politics ot tho blato all up nnd it had only began to in ttlo down again two years ago. this year tho uepublioans and rrolnbitionists have got back tho old majority, swelled, per haps, by a few additional votes oast out of compliment to Blaine. It is a good enough victory to hurrah over, tint when wo como to measure it it is found to bo a kind of victory that docs not go very far. If he had done much less than this in his own State, Mr. Blaine might as well have retired from tho canvass.'' Head and Ponder. Theie aro nearly 8500,000,000 lying idlu in tho United States treasury til Washington, and yet thero aro thou sands of idlu workingmen in tho coun try idle because thoy can get nothing to do. In addition to this, business every whero is feat fully dull, and their is no telling when it will be any bolter, or when these thousands of idle men aro going to get work to enablo them to livo through thu coming winter. Tho prospect is indeed a cheerless cue, and only God knows what tho end will bo. But now Hiipiioso these five hundred million dollars lying in the treasury at Washington, unemployed and doing nobody any good, wero hack in tho pockets of tho people, tho tax-payers iioiii whom it was gathered in the shape of taxes, under the silly preienso that tlio Government nocdod a re dundant revenue, wo say, suppose this vast amount of money in the treasury that tho government don't need, was re turned to tho pockets of tho people or to thu communities from which big amount wero exacted, wouldn't busi. ties brisk up t wouldn't tho idlu men find plenty to do ? wouldn't tho stag untion disappear, and wouldn't thu manufacturing and industrial interests of tho oountry boom t But tho Republican party want this redundant rovenuo, They want nil this enormous amount of money to lie idlo in tho treasury, oven though tho work Ingmon nnd their families may ho fain ished for food aud nil tho business and manufacturing interests cense. Aud tho Republican party not only want this, but thoy want more. They want thu Government to pile on thu taxen, to wring tho last cent from tho pockets of tho laboring mnii. They want this inonoy to enrich themselves with to speculate upon to appropriate on big contracts in short thoy wantiUo they can steal it. That's tho long and short of the wholo matter the entire bus! ness in n nut-shell. Now, tho Democrats aro opposed to this redundant revenue Tluty don't want any money in tho treasury, ox cept what is needed to decently run thu government and pay thu pensions. That la all tho people ought to bo taxed for, all that is necessary to have. But thu Republicans fight against any reduc tion of the revenue with ilium it is nothing but inoiiiy, money, inonoy. And as they havo been in power for twenty years, they havo controlled tho financial business of tho government until thoy now havu neatly .500,000, 000 piled up in tho treasury, while bus iness is dead nnd hundreds of thousands nro out of work, with winter staring them In the face. Thus it is that tho iieoplo are robbed and cheated by this Republican parly, who are asking to bo continued in pow er for another presidential term, and who have put up their worst ami most unscrupulous leader as their candidate. Will tho people who havo thus been robbed and cheated, again allow them reives to bo hoodwinked nild fooled. We shall see. Iktkfoiite Watch man. Ohio as a Presidential Paotor. The supporters of Mi: Blaine must carry Ohio in October if they would avert certain and overwhelming disas ter in Novombcr. It that state should dcclaro against them in October it will bo noticed that their candidato will not receivo the electoral votes of one third of the states. They aro of course shrewd enough to understand tho ef lect the loss of Ohio in October would havo upon the election in November and they will therefore direct all their energies from this time forth to thu capture of that statu at tho approach iug state election. On tlie contrary, while the democrats would have a walk-over if Ohio should elect tho democratic stato ticket in October, tho loss of that state will not by any means insure the defeat of Cleveland. In 1S70 the republicans carried Ohio at the October election and also in November, bill Tildcu and Hendricks nevertheless had majorities in a sufficient number of states to give thorn a majority in tho electoral col lege. Tho states which must bo carried for Cleveland nro as follows : Alabama 10 Electors Arkansas o " Delaware 3 " Floilda 1 " tleort'la !;! " Indiana lr, " Kentucky 13 " Louisiana 8 " Marjlunil s " Mississippi 5 " Missouri 10 " New York. ... as " North Carolina. 11 " South Carolina " Tennessee is " Texas i:i " Virginia IS " West Virginia o " .in " The electoral college consists of -101 members, 201 boing a majority. The states above named therefore cast a majority of the entire electoral vote. If New Jersey be added, and thai state is as surely democratic ax Georgia or Kentuckv. the total electoral vote for Cleveland will be brought up to 212. If West Virginia be omitted, the Cleveland electoral vote would still be 20!). This estimate is based on the certainty of New York and Indiana casting their electoral votes for Cleve land. Besides the.se states tho demo crats will most likely carry .Michigan, Wisconsin, California, Nevada and Connecticut, in which event Cleveland could bo elected without New York aud Indiana. It will bo observed that in all of these combinations Ohio is not counted, and it is therefore appa rent that Cleveland can bu olected without tho electoral vote of that stato just as Tildun was in 1870.

He gathers tho trade. Noth ing but woftil mismanage ment can keep him from heading his industry, what ever it is. There's a maker of cash meres who does that; Lupin. Thereare many other makers of cashmere ; a great many others as good as the makers of other like stuffs. But, when we put their cashmeres side by side with Lupin's, price by price, to be looked at and felt of, taken , or rejected, by ladies who wear them, Lupin's are taken and the others rejected with al most unanimous judgnv nt. There is something in the feel of the goods, something that responds to the touch rather than sight, a certain solidity added to softness, a certain firmness in the very delicacy of the fibre itself, something alluring, some thing assuring, that wins the satisfied choice. If Lupin's weave is not there, the others are soft and smooth and pleasing enough. Compari son alone brings out the supreme refinement of work and material that cannot be accidental. It is work of a master ; material refined by a master's skill. There is no Lupin. The famous maker has done his work and gone. His fame is entrusted to worthy succes sors who honor the name by keeping the factory standard up. The supremacy of the name is made the more sig nificant by the very fact that the winner of the unques tioned laurel is out of the race. There is no longer any personal triumph in the name. Tiiere is a fortune for the inheritors of its use. There is release from watch fulness for the merchant. There is confidence for the buyer. There is a standard of magnificent attainment for the makers of similar stuffs. There is cheer for deserving in every sort of industry. The world is a gainer every way. We are led to these pleas ant reflections by the rather prosaic fact that a new lot of Lupin's 50-cent cashmeres has come ; twenty colors or more. But that's no wonder ful thing. We had already about the same colors in the finer grades of Lupin's cash meres, 60, 75, 85 cents and a dollar. They are constantly coming and going. Thenew are not new, and the old are not old. When you look at them piled on the shelves, it never occurs to you, "Are they new or old?" "Are they Lupin's?" "They are." And then you wonder whether you are not going to pay something for the prestige of an eminent name ; and you want to see other makers' cashmeres. So we also keep them. But we try not to keep anything to look at and never to sell; and, when we buy cashmeres other than Lupin's, we arc apt to be sparing. We can't lay them in with so generous hand. On the whole there is no other collection of cashmeres in town that approaches our own, especially when the range is widened a little and kindred fabrics taken in. In town did we say? Is there any beyond Jersey? Where, anywhere, is there a store that gathers so for rich and poor alike ? Where, any where, a store that makes the trade of the rich so help the trade of the poor, and the trade of the poor so help the trade of the rich? But that is another subject. John Wanamaker. Chmnut.
