Tho conjectures of tho Tribune aro
certainly severe, and If the Rods of
thia Stute can staud such shots from a

would infer that there is no usoot giv
ing anybody a "black eyo," so as to
prevent captious people from seeing

few Radicals who havo faith enough
to behove that tbo rascals who now
oontrol that party can be turned out

CLEAR TJJE TRACK.
Roador, how would you like to
rido a short distance at a spoed of
sixty-five miles an hour? Such Is the
last departure in rail road riding.
Our Centennial yoar is crowded
with wonders,1 not the least of
which was tho feat in transportation
accomplished on tho 1st of Juno by
tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
A locomotive and throe cars left Jersey
City at 1 A. M. and arrived at Pittsburg
at 10:50 a. M., having run a distancoof
141 miles without a stop, and averag
ing 45 miles to tho hour. This bos
never boon equaled sinco tho world
was mado. Tho one engino which
took tho train from Jorsy City climbed
tho Allcghcnics, with a grado of 96
feet to tbo mile, at an avorago spoed of
35 miles an hour. Tbe Pennsylvania
Company has abundant reason to be
proud of this achievement. It is tho
best evidence tiioy could desire of tbo
safety of thoir road and tho almost
boundless extent of thoir resources.
Tho train roachod Chicago 29 minutes
ahead of time on the schedule an
nounced for tbe Pittsburg, Fort Wayne
and Chicago Railroad. It was plainly
demonstrated by tho progrosa made
that tho running timo of those 4C9
miles might havo boon reduced one
hour at least, tho track being in ex
cellent condition, and tbo managomont
so careful that not tho slightest obsta
cle of any kind was encountered. The
running time on tho Cbicagoend of
tho road averaged sixty miles an hour.
Tbe train arrived at San Francisco on
Sunday, June 4th, twenty -six minutes
ahead of timo having made tho run
from New York in oighty -throe hours
and thirty-seven minutes.
Well, if that is not fast riding we
know but little about timo. Col.
Scott will obviate the nocossity of in
venting flying machine if be continues
in bis progress in tbe railroad schedulo
timo on his road. '
All Wrong. We notice that somo
journalists aro making considerable ef
fort at "working up General Han
cock's caso" for tbe Presidency. There
is no man living for whom we havo
greater rospoct than Gen. Hancock.
Ho has defied power and ignored plooo,
and is the embodiment of grand Dem
ocratic views, but is more fitted for
the army than for any other position.
Tbero bo would bo "tho right man in
the right place" In tho Presidential
cbair be would be vory much out of
place). Genernl Grant realizes the
blunder ho committed when he loaned
himself to tbo President makers, and
if General Uuncock tloes not "sea tho
point" now, ho will soon after he allows
himself to be made a candidate.
Another Fool Gone. Tho Turkish
Empire, which has just nndergono a
revolution, has just one fool less than
it contained on tbo 1st of June, as ap
pears from tha following:
Washington, D. C, Juno 4. The
minister of foreign affairs has address
ed tho following telegram to tbo Turk
ish minister at Washington :
Constantinople, Juno 4, 1876. A
sad ovont baa just painfully affected
our august sovereign of this Govern
ment. Abdul Axis Khan, the late Sul
tan, who for somo time past, unfortu
nately, gives evident signs of mental
dorangoment. Jlaving locked himself

pulses of Tcheragan, ho committed su

with a pair of scissors which ho had

A Great Speecb. Wo this week

of Hon. Goo. A. Jonks, of Brookvillo.
His exposition of tho frauds committed
in the Pension Bureau are pointed and
conclusivo. Tbat tho widows and sol
diers' orphans have boon robbed of
millions of dollars of their just dues
tbero is no doubt. Besides the Na
tional Treasury has been plundered of
a similar amount at the same time by
tho samo men. If this speech does
not open tho eyes of the people, wo
shall be greatly mistaken. Tho lacU
aro so ptila that all can understand
just how the frauds have been commit
ted, and Mr. Jcnks potntf out tho way
to provont thoir ropotilion.

TIUl EXPOSURE OF VILLAINS.
Tho exposures mado at Washington
b',- the various investigating ooininit-
t oos, causes a glow of shams to pass
over tbo face of many an honest Radi
cal, who did not believe half that was
told bint. The crimes committed by
the loaders of tho party in powor has
driven thousands of thoir friends out
of tho ranks. Somo of their loading
newspaper organs aro "in a swoat,"
while others are scolding like a fish
woman.
Read what tho Pittsburg Chronicle
has to say about the greatest and mean
osl swindle over perpetrated in this
country by its party friends. ' Hear

Tho entire operations as revealed in
this report shows tbat tho concern was
manipuluteu by joromian isiuuiors,
an incnmnrnlB bodv of fitlso nretona-
os,' oracled upon the credulity of tbe
black man. Whether the men who
swindled tbe depositors may bo liken
od to goals or wolves, tbo rosull is all
tho game to tho depositors, who havo
been shorn like sheep. All doubt as to
improper conduct of the officers and
agonu of tbe bank is removed, it
shown that a tow mon divided up
amonir themselvoa and thoir friends all
tha money at thoir disposal. Under
the iruiso of friendship, and sympathy
for the black man, a tew men managed
to fix themselves on tbe finance Com
mil too, and onco in that position, they
put the earnings entrusted to their
keeping where they thought they
would do tbom tho most good. In one
inBtulico they loaned money on seouri
tiej which were known to bo worth
less. Here is a specimen of their trans
actions. Tho Actuary of the bank ac
cepted a half interest in a 1100,000
contract. Ho put no money in tho on
priso, ran absolutely no risks, assumed
no responsibilities, but he shared hull
tbe profits. Of course tho contractor's
paper was not sorutiiiiEod wbon sub
mitted to tho Board. Tho contractor
still owos tho bank 1144,000. The
worst feature in the wholesale swindle
perpetrated, perhaps is called the Son
eca Sandstono swindle, by which tbo
bank was robbed of U.',0U0. '
In a word, tho management of tho
bank was simply a stupendous confi
dence operation, but as tho operators
occupied a 'position in society,' and
had influential . frionds at thoir
sido, instead of being compelled to re
place the inonoy tnoy parceled out
among themselves and their friends, or
failing iu tbat to be prosecuted and
sent to prison, Ibey aro permitted to
go scott free.
A Hiculiurfeattiroin this r roedmnu s
Isanti swindle is tbe odor ol sanctity
and sniffling piety that pervaded the
management, i bo piety was not very
deep: it was surface piety: the kind
tbat burulus religious convictions loud
ly, as thin as veneer, say about twen
ty sheets to the inch. Like Mr. Ham
ilton Veneering, they absorbed all tbe
money that camo near them. Their
piety scorns to have bcon of tho sly,
mysterious, llliny pattern. Uur read-
ora may remember tbat ovcrything
that belonged to tho Vencerings was
bran new, oveu to the tuniiture, so
new that 'the surfuco smelt a little too
much of tho workshop and was a trifle
sticky.' The principal difference
between tho Venooriugs and the
managers of tho Frcodinau's Bunk ap
pears to lie in the fact that the belong
ings of the latter wero more than a
trifle slicky, since the money entrust
ed to them watt borno off impercepti
bly, as industrious bees carry off tbo
sweets of flowers.
The record ia a most shameful ono,
and the strenuous efforts that have
boon and are still made to saddle this
iniquity upoa tho Republican party,
should not and will not prevent re-
siiwctablo mon from denouncing it in
tbo terms it deserves. , '

LETTER FROM tSEXA TOR
JiOlER.
It seems that certain persons, whose
motives are not hard to understand,
aro ycry busy misrepresenting my po
sition on tbo so called Doom bill during
tho session of tho Legislature. Tbo
report of the House Committee in the
investigation was so manilustly unl'uir
and untruo, as has been shown by a
score or more ot members wbo, in open
session of the "House, corrected the re
port of tbo committee, lbeur bung
ling report rendered it necessary tor
tbo senate to take some action to as
certain if any illegal means had been
used in tbat body to pass tho bill or
defeat it, or if any of iu members bad
boon engaged in tbo samo. According
ly a resolution to investigate was offer
ed by Senator Dunkol, of Philadelphia,
and Messrs. Dunkel. strung and Law
renco, Republicans, and Monsra. Hill
and Allen, Democrats, tbo lattor the
principal champion of the bill in the
aenaui, wore appointed, iiiis com
mittee, alter nearly two weeks ot ef
fort, fuilod to find any testimony to
oorroborato the testimony of Andre
against mo, but tboy aucceodud in elic
iting tho lact that neither Dry, Wan
uer nor Miller had any conversation
with me whatever on tho boom bill,
notwithstanding tbe report of tbo
llouso Committee indicated that from
tho testimony of these men 1 had cor
ruptly solicited them. Conrad swears
that 1 did not oiler turn anytbinir or
intimate that ho could get anything
tor bis voto, and that 1 simply told btra
what the common talk was, aud Geis-
elman, whose statement is hereto ap
pended, utterly repudiates tbo report
f tha House Committee. After the
preliminary rexirt ot the Bcnule Com
mittco was read, and tho Senate refus
ing to take any further action in the
matter, I moved for tho appointment
of a secial committee to thoroughly
investigate my particular case. This
waa grunted, and tho President tiro
ton of tbo Sonato, named Messrs. An
derson, ot Allegheny, Crouso, of Phila
delphia, and Lemon, of Blair, Republi
cans, and Kaglo, of Philadelphia, and

searched for a witness to corroborate
tbo testimony of Andre, and they wero
compelled to report that the testimony
was not sufficient to justify a charge of
bribery, but tbat it was undignified to
spoak in any other but a grave and
serious manner about legislation, as it
lowered the dignity of the position to do
so. Ol Temporal Ol Mores I 1 am
not of tbo class wbo doom it necessary
to bido what little light 1 havo under

conceit of my personal dignity, or,
wbal would be still worse asinine, the

THE CINCINNATI NOMINEE.
Now that Blaine's candidacy is out
ot the question, the Kcptiklicans are in
a quandary. Only m very small pro
portion ot tbe "regulars" want Brislow
at any price, as he ia not considered
sufficiently loyal. Morton has render
ed tho party oxoellont service by wav-
pg tho blood-stained undergarment:
and bia radicalism is unquestioned,
But ho is not personally popular, and
bo is considered, evon by many of bis
friends, to bo unavailable as a candi
date. ThoSouthorn Republicans would,
of course, voto solidly tor him ; but ho
would be a miserable failure before tho
people of the North and West. Conk
ling is by no means a favorite ; but the
strong probability is that ho will get
tho nomination. Tho Republican lead
ors know that the candidato of cither
Sarly that gets the 35 elcctrol votes of
lew York, next November, will be
the 13th President of tbe United States.
They know that the candidate of neith
er party can reasonably hoo to bo
olected icifAouf1 tbe voto ot Now York.
Thoy know that lending Democrats
from ono end of tho countiy to tho
other, bave got lo understand that fact,
and are, ono after another, abandon
ing their respectivo favorites, and
frankly avowiug their preference, un
der tbo circumstances, for Samuel J.
Tildon, tho present Democratic (lover
ernor of New York, and tho strongest
man in the State of oither party. Til
den's strength is so great that bo was
elected by a majority of moro than 50,
000 votes over the, Republican candi
date, Governor Dix, who had been
elected, two years before, by a majority
of more than 53,000 votes, and waa, by
all odds, tho best and the most popular
Kcpublican Governor tho State ever
had. A gainst a man who thus changed
more than 103,000 votes in his favor,
while running against an opponent of
raro ability and unexceptionable char
acter, it will bo indispensable to any
show of success for the Republicans,
tbat thoy nomlnato that man of their
party who has tbe most strength in
Now York. Conkllng has been, for
years, dispensing Federal favors all
over the Stato; and, if ho has not
mado many friends, ho has, at least,
many political adherents. The inflii
onco of tho Administration would also
be freely used In bis favor ; and, alto-
f oilier, he ia perhaps, tho best man the
lepiiblloans oould nominate with refer
ence lo carrying tha Kmpiro citato,
It bas been ascertained hero that
noithor Gov. Tildon nor any of his
friends had any knowledge whatever
of tho circular recently sent out by
an advertising agency, offering to pay
for the publication ot newspaper ex
tracts favoring 'filden's nomination.
Tbs circulars were sent to many punors
known to bo opposod to Gov. Tildon j

Above all, they must not follow in the

A PARAtlUAPU MOUTH READ1NU
In his remarks in the Senute, sitting
as a Court ol impeachment, yesterday,
Malt Carpenter, tho senior counsel for
Itolknap, was, as usuul, impertinent
und lisrosioetfiil to the members of
tho Court, indirectly charging thorn
with tho inteiiliou of not according to
his client a fuir trial. Many Senators
sut uneasily under bis insinuations
and Judgo Thurman, of Ohio, was
noticeably annoyed. Just at the close
of the proceedings, Judgo Ihiinnan,
in the course of a few remarks, suid,
pointing towurd Carpenter. "The
Somite lias been treated with scant re
spect, and the law with leas." Seeing
that the Judgo wus unnoyed, tarpon
ter wulked over, and putting ono bund
good-nuturcdly oti Thurnutn s shoulder,
extended tbo other for a shake, at tho
same time saying something inaudible
lo persons in tbe galleries. 1 burman
ret used to extend bis bund ; but Car.
pouter kept on talking, and, filially,
wilh gentle lorco secured possussion of
it, and shook it heurtily. thurman
wus evidently still angry, and. with
drawing bis hand, begun talking and
gosliciilattng earnestly, Iienuently
bringing bis fist down on his dusk, in a
very empbatiu manner. Carpenter
finally turned and spoke to Senator
. or wood, ol ticorgia, und subsequently
returned to Thurman, nnd placing his
hand on his (IhuroiansJ shoulder,
again begun talking pleasantly. 1 bur-
man rather gruffly shook it olf, and
Curpcnter, evidently despairing of mol
lifying him, turned awuy. . This little
scene was wiln.cd with a good deal
of interest from the reporter's gallery.

POLITICAL.
Tho nearnvHs of -the meeting of tho
Republican Convention, at Cincinnati,
is my excuse for writing of the condi
tion of political affairs in this city, right
upon the ev ol that important trainer.
ing. The most sincere friend and ad
vocate of Senator Conkllng, in the
Centennial oily, is William II. Kemhle,
ox-treasurer of Pennsylvania. For
fully ono year Mr. Kemblo bus thought
the wisest thing tlio Kupuhlicnns could
do would bo to nominate Mr. Conkling,
yet notwilhstrnding this, and his pro
test against passing tbe administration
of the Stato into Democratic hands by
tlio nomination of Gov. Hartranft at
Cincinnati, Mr. Komble was elected a
national delegate without opposition.
ben. liingbam, lately post master ot
our city, is another delegate; bis first,
last and only choice is Blaine ; and in
tbe event of tbo Mains candidato win
ning tbe sceptre, Queen Victoria will
moke tbo acquaintance of the hand
somest diplomat this country over sent
lo the Court ot St- James.
Outside of those two gentlemon, the
other ten delegatus to Cincinnati are
practical men truo to Jlartranft who,
it tbey fail to mako him tbe nominee,
will go down with him with colors fly
ing. When thoy come up it will bo to
mako things lively, and to aupiwrt only
that ticket which in their jadgment is
is most likely to bring victory in No
vember. If tbe twelve delegates, from Phila
delphia bad the framing of a Republi
can ticket it would be thus: For
President. Gen. Rutherford B. Haves.
of Ohio, for Vico President, Hon.
Itoscoe Conkling, ol Aew lork.
CENTENNIAL JOTTINGS.
Louis Victor Annstoad Henry, born
March 10th, 1707, at Cherbourg,
France, and a veteran of tbe first ot
Napoleon's army, is tho liveliest old
gentleman of 109 years now visiting
tbo Exhibition.
The jewelry in tho French depart
ment is vuluod at $250,000.
There is a chandelier made of meer
schaum and amber, in tho Gorman de
partment, which cost $0,000.
Cotton bolls in full bloom attract at

A mosaic portrait ol iron. Washing
ton wortli 115,000 is now in tho Art
Gallery. It is the gilt of L. A. Gul-
lanilt, ol Homo, to tho city ol 1 liilu-

What is to become of the Centennial
ice cream saucers utter tho Exhibition
is over T they aro too small for cult
ivates, and not deep enough lor salt-cellars.
Tho extraordinary demand for wood
cock at tho French restaurant, by en
lightened r.nglislimcn, and epicurean
Frenchmen, has creuted a corner in
squabs. Tho American dincron wood
cock is aware that a nno ot 1 10 is im
posed for each bird killed prior to July
1st, and he enjoys a lauirr. at tho ex
pense of his French nnd Knglish cous

Tho I'.venino star has these praiso
worthy words, concerning the Enhibi
lion. They aro so just, that I tttko it
they will meet tho approval of every
fair-minded editor in tho land.
"Day aftor day tho immensity,
grandourand elegance of tbo wondrous
aggregation of works of art and science
aro moro and moro strikingly assorted.
no man possessed ol a modicum of tho
spirit of fairness can speak in any
oinor man praiseworthy terms or the
Coiifcnnial. f p lew errors have been
made and it is not denied that such
has been tho ease they havo bcon
promptly repaired by tho management.
As lar as it is complete, it is, if not
absolutely perfect, at least so far stipo
rior to ovcrythintr of tho kind vet at
tempted In the world, that Instead of
finding foil t, it shnnld bo tho endeavor
of every man who claims to bs an
American ci 1 1 ion and who Is possessed
of a single spark of palriotio prido, to
aid in proclaiming tho fact.
All wbo can should see It. it is the
greatest school sver opened up to tho
American people. Tbero is not a
singlo exhibit that has not an instruct
ive lesson for marly every visitor : not
d'niooo of machinery that does not
teacn somctning usNig; pot a wnrk of
art thut Is not culculiited to elevate
and rullno, It should bo the aim and
object uf overy writer for the public
press to bave these happy liiniiencus
exerted upon the greatest possible
number of our people,
ll there be errors Iu management,
do not exaggerate them. Mole hills
should not be magnified into moun
tains. II mistakes have crept lu lot
them be pointed out with a kindly
spirit, and not with one that glories in
pulling down rut her than building up
this superb und confessedly successful
enterprise."
THE FINE AKTS.
'i'huro Is only a fig leaf's difference
between French and Ainericun flno
art, as represented at our great Exhi
bition. Hundreds ol nude figures ol
men und boys ure displayed lo tbe
cure of the multitude of men, women
und children, who visit tho French scu
tum. The French urlish does hour, u-
tilulu his murblo slutuo, but gives the
ngiiru in us entirely; the more mod
est American sculptor vivisects his vic
tim und theu bides his deloriinty bo
nciith a fig-leaf.
There died in this city, almost hull'
a century ago, a plum uud unpretend
ing limn, Whose litslu lor the beautiful
wus lu hutipy con trust with the artis
of to-day, whoso skill is "to benulll
iiiunkiml by nil exhibition ot it utou
Centennial. This plain man whose
inline will be honored until the cud ol
timo, is none olber than .Stephen Gi
rard, and if the iniirble statute thai
sluiids ubove tbo sucrcd Burcopliugiis,
which contains his remains, could be
set up in the Mum Exhibition building
in coiilrusl wilb the chiseled marble ol
187U, a lesson would be tutighl man
kind that would prove of benefit.
This slutue of Girurd wus made in
accordance with bis instructions, iriven
before bis death, and is habited in coul,
vest, punts and boots, rcpresuiiiativu
of those worn by him while living.
There is a natural simplicity and beau
ty about it which causes the father
and mother to long linger at, with
thoir sons and daughters ; they regard
it as a thinir of bcautv : but the art
connoisseur wbo regards a nuked figure
as tho perlectionol art, doubtless turns
scorntully away from it, and wonders
why all mens' taste can't riso to the
classic beauty ot a lig loaf.
Closino in on Sitting Bci.t..
Three columns of troops are advanc.
ing Irom as many different directions
upon the hostile Sioux under Sitting
Bull, who is reported to be in camp
with three thousand braves, near the
Little Missouri river, in Dakota. This
movement indicates a plan to surround
those troublesome Indians aiid admin
ister to them a salutary lesson. Gen.
oral Terry commands the main expe
dition, which Is moving west Irom
Fort Lincoln, General Custer accom
panying him at the head of bis own
regiment of cavalry. General Gibbon
leads a considerable lorco ot infantry
and cavalry east Irom Port Kins, Mon
tana, and General Crook, the most sue
cpsslul Indian fighter of all, heads an.
other column, which is to march from
Fort Jjintinio northward. If these
different forces mako dose connections
Sitting Bull will have to face tho mil
sio, and fight with the certainty of be
ing badly whipped, for his warriors
are encumbered by their Inmilics, nnd
running away will not bo au easy
mutter.
