SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1882.
IB THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DOOMEDt !
It is unlcn it cnta loose from those who
now seek to lead it by openly defying .
publio opinion and catting looso from all
lavs of common decency. Republicans
In Congress have loaded honors and re
sponsibilities upon the nntorloun Kobe
son, or New JtMey, As the representa
tive of thnt class of Jobbers who view
National 1 gUlntlon simply as a thiog by
which they'can nain a point and enrich
themselves, he has succeeded in being
made second on the Committee of Ap
propriations and second on Naval Ex
penditure. It is beyond question that he
chose these positions for bimsilf. Hut a
short time ago the Republican caucux
created s Committee to determine the
measures the majority shonld consider nt
this session, giving priority, of eonrse.lo
the election cases. ItoLewin though not
ostensibly the Chairman of this Commit
tee is actually its manager. The meet
ings are held at his Louse and be virtu
ally directs ILo subjects of liquidation.
Upright Republicans, and there are
many of thtm.bave begun to chafe nnder
his dictation. They are familiar with
his disreputable,careerand feel themsehej
compromised by following his leadership.
Thty lack the courage to break Iooho and
openly avow independence, but the time
ripldly approaches when they will be
oompclled to do so or go down to obscur.
ity under a load of oblivion from which
there can bo no rescue.
Here in this State independence is at
work and its success means the disrup
tion of the Republican party. Hereto
fore blunders have prevented the con
sumation of the cherished plans of those
who have thrown oil the shackles. Rut
this year it begins to look as if the pro
moters of the movement will be able to
realize that their time and labor have not
gone for naught. Cameron aud his aids
feel that the bnll dog prowess which has
carried them through many a hard fought
contest in the past will hardly avail them
now and they are full of concessions and '
conciliation. Heretofore they bave de
manded absolute submission and now
they are ripe for a bargain. And the
same spirit is rife elsewhere. Rossisru is
bound to receive a terrible shock this
year, aud if we are not mistaken Repub
licanism, which since the death of Mr.
Lincoln, has been without n professed
principle to claim favor, and is now rent
by a war of factions, loaded down with
dUoredlt and led by a gang of corrup
tionists led byRobeson,must sink through
the sheer weight of its own iniquity.
The actions of Senator Cameron and
his Stalwart ideas bave bad the eftect to
strengthen considerably the hands of
somo ot the weak men of the Republican
party who bad bocome sacred, and de
clared that defeat only stared them in the
face. At Philadelphia, on Saturday
morning several well-known Rcpublicau
business men were sent for, and in re
sponse tbey appeared nt the Continental
Hotel. Tho Senator explained to the
gentlemen the serions aspect of the situ
ation of affairs so far as the Republican
party is concerned in the State, aud very
plainly desired to know whether he could
rely npon the aid of the gentlemen in the
fight next November. Taking one of the
visitors into a side room, the Senator in
formed him tbatit would be necessary to
have all bis men vote the Regular ticket
thiB fall, and informed the gentleman in
the most cmphatio manner THAT THE
EMPLOYES MUST VOTE FOR THE
INTERESTS OF THE EMPLOYER.
The question of the tariff was discussed
by the party, and the Senator said that
tbo interests of the manufacturers were
such that they could not afford to allow
the Democratic party to be successful.
He also said that if those men who had
b.-eu benefitted for years by the tariff and
It's efforts intended to desert him now,
he would in tnrn make them suffer. It
was agreed by those present to do all in
their power to secure the election of the
tlrket and to call a meeting of business
men, so as to learn to what extent they
will come forth with the siuew of war.
The Senator will return to Philadelphia
:n n month or so and learn what the re
sult of his visit bos been. He expects
that by thoroughly orousing the manu
facturers nnd continually dinging into
their ears the dangers of a Democrntlo
Administration be can break the force of
the Independent movement and leave it
to disappointed politicians alone.
Decoration Day was all that could
be desired. It was bright and beautiful
and fifty millions paid tribnte to their
nation's dead. Uoautiful flowers in pro
fusion were strewn upon graves made
sacred by the cause their occupants
served so nobly. At Gettysburg, in this
State, where that great soldier, Hancock,
repnlscd the Nation's foe, the ceremonies
were unusually impressive. Three thous
and graves in the National C. metery were
decorated in a beautiful way and great
crowds of people were in attendance.
Gen. Joe. Hawley delivered the oration
and Mr. Dlaice, who was rinseut, was
called for. He spoke eloquently for a
few minutes, and said be congratulated
himself that he was a native of this
State on whose soil the Federal Constitu
tion was adoptod and the Rebellion re
ceived its death blow.

OUR HEW YORK LETTER.
Special to Trnt Carbox Advocitk.
Nkw Yo, May 20, 1832.
"What it thetTioofltl
There is very little stirring in Iheciiy ex
cept the rain that is tailing, the bright green
leaves on tho trees and the nnny sparrows.
Only four murders since the last execution,
six days ago, and three attempts, one of
which may prove a success. So, you see the
papers are dull, for what it a daily paper
now without its regular plethora of horrors?
It has long been a subject ot remark, that
immediately after the hanging of an assas
sin the very air seems to fill with the mys
terious force thaliinpels tho criminal classes
to deeds of atrocity ; and that before the
week is closed the columns of the papers
teem with new stories of bloodshed. The
question in the minds of a great many good
men, who use their brains to think with, is
whether the brutal strangling of a murderer
1or do nf de,er ,he th,"S' lbe
bloody work that so many of them have
learned to look upon as the crowning glory
of tbeir lives. Horace Greeley was wont to
say, that the worst possible use to which
you could put a man was to hang him. His
death is the result of a judicial murder, and,
aided by the quick and graphic pen of the
ever-ready reporter, it serves not to intimi
date the vicious, but to encourage them.
Nine out of ten murderers "die game," and
I say it with no irreverent feeling, nearly
all, according to the solemn assertions of
their spiritual advisers, go-right straight to
Heaven. But what of their victims'?.
Cigarettes and "Fool for Drinks."
There are two evils now operating in this
and other cities, which are hardly less
powerful in their damning influence over
the young than rum in its most devilish
form. I don't rifer to tho so-called Boys'
and Girls'Weeklics that scatter poison broad
cast over the land, but they era had enough,
and their publishers should all be doing the
State some service in the stone-breaking
depsrtmeuts of the prisons. I don't count
even the variety shows, which are pest
holes, eien the best of them. Matters I
wish to point out particularly are cheap
cigarettes and " pool for drinks." Nearly
every boy beyond the watchful eye of his
mother smokes cigarettes the nastiest apol
ogics for cigars that were ever devised.
Made of reluse tobacco gathered by Italian
beggars in the gutters.they poison the breatli
and ruin the health, and excite the morbid
appetite of many a bright lad intended as
an ornament and an honor to his commun
ity. To purchase them "two for a cent"
many a little fellow has become a thief.
And yet no elfbtt is made to put a stop to
the traffic.
" Pool (or drinks," is a sign to be seen on
nearly every busy thoroughfare in the city.
In most places where the gaino Is played
the chief customers are boys, the majority
of whom it were folly to mince matters
must steal the money which tho game costs
them. The largest of these places are on the
Bowery -open day and night all the year
round, it is crowded constantly. Police
men pass by the doors and hear the clink of
the balls on the twelve or 11 iteen tables in
the two large rooms, see boys going in and
aomlng out, often tipsy, yet never attempt
to close the placo.
Two Notable Real Estate Sales.
At the parlitlou sale of tho Bennett estate
on Monday, 22ud, James Gordon Bennett,
plaintiff, disbursed no less than $1,362,000,
the largest amount ever expended by one
buyer at any sale in this country. He psid
for the iron building, Fulton and Nassau
streets, known as the Bennett building,
$650,000. It was In this building, before
its renovation, that the Herald was publish
ed for many years. For his Fifth avenue
mansion, northwest corner of 39th street, be
paid $220,000 ; for two bouses with 13 acres
of land on Fort Washington Ridge Road,
$130,00, and far 37 acres on the same road,
$247,000. Not far from his Fort Washing
ton property is the Id Jumel mansion in
which Aaron Burr was married to Madame
Jumel, the mother of one of George Wash-
Ington s children. The mansion, a most
interesting relic of the past, together with
several hundred city lots belonging to the
Jumel estate, now owned bv Nelson Chase
nnd two others, will be sold on May 31st.
The property is variously estimated at from
$3,000,000 to $7,000,000 In value.
Store Bibles among the Negroes,
Among the speakers at the regular week
ly meeting of the Baptist minister on Tues-
day, was the Rev. Dr. Leesdsle,of Knox
ville, Tenn., who was a delegate to the
Southern! Baptist Convention recently held
at Ureenville,S. C. In his address be strong.
ly condemned the action of the American
Bible Society, in reference to the translation
of the Bibles, and urged that the Scriptures
should be translated into all languages. He
thought that the 1,000,000 Baptists of thi
country were opposed to any further aflilla
tion with the American Bible Society, and
spoke very earnestly of the necessity ol pro.
vidiug for the circulation ofthe Bibles among
lue negn es or the South.
Blind Tom's New Song.
Wind Tom is back agsin. He bss been
playing all lbe week to crowded house.
ills weight is now about 275 pounds. Tom
bss "dropped int.. pootry." and last nleht 1
bad the plessure ol beariBg him sing the
following, his own composition to musie
of his own mske. He calls It the "The man
who mashed bis thumb."
"I know a very honest man,
Who lives quite far away,
lit Is beloved by every one
The igan who mashed Ms thumb."
I stood one day near by the ball,
To watch the folks go by,
And In the distance far away.
Wastkemanwbomaihed his thumb."
This is all of Tom's song, you notice that
tt It eatinly dtvsld of rhyme; bat that doet
not detract from its merit. One of Robbie
Burns prettiest songs, "For the sake o' some
body," contains not a sign of a rhyme) yet
wbo would think of criticising it on that ac
count.
Jumbo & Talmage.
The great Ecclesiastic of Brooklyn, lectur
ed the other day on "Amusements," and
took the high ground that although the
preachers had always discouraged attend
acce at theatres and other plsces under
Satan's rule, the circus was not a harmful

Using Barnum't cirsus there can bono doubt,
fur at his next lecturo there were but lew
people, and those were all bald-headed. It
Is said that Talmage will not allow Jumbo's
name to be used In his presence again.
Two Sights for the Sentoleso.
A week Irom to day, Professor Bibbero
whose name Is Johnson, will swim across
the East River, along the side of the Brook
lyn Bridge, with his feet shsckled and his
arms pinioned behind his back. Ills mode
of locomotion In the water is like that of an
eel. At the same time Professor Donaldson
who coins fame and pastime under his own
nsme, will leap from the East River Bridge
that is, if the bridge authorities permit
the tool to act according to his folly. Two
other fools have wagered $500 on and
against the performance of this feat. It la a
subject of regret, especially among the coro.
ners end undertakers that the trio of fools
could not be sewn up in a bag and thrown
from the bridge lu company.

It was expected that tbe first Cabinet
meeting this week would result in tbe
s -.ttlement of a slate for the Tariff Com
mission. Unexpected difficulties present
themselves, however, so that the nomina
tions are again delayed, There are go
many Barnes under consideration that it
is simply guess-work to attempt to say
wbo will be taken, as the President him
self does not know. The names consid
ered most liable to be among the num
ber are these of Henry W. Oliver, of
Pennsylvania, and Robert P. Porter. It
had been settled for some time that ex
Secretary Kirkwood would head tbe list.
but it is barely possible that some other
name may be chosen after all. As the
slate now stands, Mr. Porter's name is
determined npon as one of the number.
Gen. Franois A. Walker has been urged
for tbe Chairmanship of the Commiskiun
by Secretary Chandler, but the Secretary
of the American Iron and Steel Associa
tion has sent in a vigorous protest on the
ground that be is a free trader, -It is

A full length life-size portrait of Presi
dent Garfield has lately been purchased
for the gallery nt tbe White House, and
was removed there last week, but has not

Green Parlor, where the portrait of Mrs.
Hayes is similarly situated . Uls portrait
is by Mr. E. F. Andrews, who paiuted
several of the other portraits ot Presi
dents now there nnd also that of Martha
Washington. This portrait has been
highly commended by General Garfield's
nearest friends and it is tbe same that
hung in tbe House of Representatives
during the memorial services on Febru-
aiy 27th. The collection at the Execu.
live Mansion of portraits of Presidents
now lacks only those of Huycs and Ar

a number were added to the collection,
making it a full representation op to bis

that in the cose of Guiteau tbe postal law

the mails has been suspended by com
mon consent. Dally there are quantities

received for him. There are compara
tively few letters, his correspondence be

"Gathered to bis fathers." Such com

Tbo Senate Financo Committee will
probably report favorably the House bill
to extend the bauk charters. There will
be oome slight amendments made. It Is
claimed by some of the Committee that a
clause of the bill providing that 310,000
worth of bonds may be deposited by a
bank is ambiguous, and under it a bank
might bave $150,000 circulation and only
$10,000 worth of bonds deposited. Some
of tbo Committee also aro in favor of al
lowing the withdrawal of $10,000,000 a

From oca SrtciiL Co.ritsron.KT.
WisiiItiQToK, May 29, 18S2.
The business of Congress, so far as any
completion of legislation at this session
is concerned, has been Borrowed to very
small dimensions. It is not expected
that anything of Importance can now be
done beyond the passage of the bill to
reduce internal revenue taxation, the
passage of the usual appropriation bills,
and the settlement of one or two contest
ed election coses. This is not a very
haudsome showing for a Congress that is
now in the sixth month of Its existence.
Very little legislation bos been accomp
lished, although a great deal has been
begun. Tbo practical work of tbe ses
sion when it shrill bavo ended, will be
fonnd to comprehend very few measures
of importance, exclusive of making those
needful appropriations for the mainten
ance of tbe Government There is before
tlie House a bill to simplify tbe duties of
Congress nnd to send to an existing and
and competent tribunal the vexatious
qnectlons that now occupy a largo pro
portion of tho energies of Congressmen.
But Senators and Representatives are re
luctant to part with any part of their
functions. Congress continues to fritter
away its time in tbe consideration of
petty private claims and in trading and
scheming among its members to re-elect
themselves while publio business of great
importance is neglected.
Putcut Office matters are attracting
some attention just now, in Congress and
the general publio are much interested in
all that pertains to this imporlaut de
partment. The Patent Office has always
been self-sustaining and lately much
more so us its accumulations over and
above all expense s aggregate nearly two
millions of dollars, now in tbe Treasury.
It is cue of the most carelully conducted
and biihinrss-liku bureaus e:f the Govern
ment No work i enter, d upon iir that
department until the cost is counted, and
no needless expense is ever incurred. I
bave taken some pains to acquaint'tny-
self with the work and melhotts ofthe
office at this t'lmo because of tbe 'discds-
elon oyer a tttnall appropriation nf.350,00p
to carry on i the work of abridging pat
ents; and tbero iscn ih'ubt whatever that
tbe Government wilt be thr gainer.finan
chilly and otherwise, by thi unde rtaking
even if It involved double the estimated
cost. It is proposed to abridge and com
press into tbe smallest possible apace the
point nnd novelty of every patent issued
hi nee IT'JO. The wbetle with accompany
ing drawings will mnkefilty-two cemven
ient volumes. Successive Ceimmissioners
for thirty years have rcce mmeuded this
work, but tbe Hon. E. M. Marblo, tbe
present C mmissiontr, was tbe first to
obtain an appropriation for that purpose.
Three volumes are now ready for tbe
press.
Tbo following fijnres give the details
of tho work and show a profit on each
edition over and ab vo all cost of $450,
besides givingaway to tho librai les of tbe

Thus it will be seen that even at lie
low price charged the work of abridg
ment will be Belf-sustaluiuu at the start;
but were it otherwise there would be vital
reasons wby it should go on. The time
saved to the various examiners and em.
ployees of the office would more than re
ply for all the outlay, and it is gratify.
ing to know that the abridgement Is in
the bands of able writers who have de
monstrated tbeir fitness for tbe work.
Among attorneys everywhere there Is but
one sentiment regarding its desirability
aud a wonder that tbe Government
shonld bave waited so long before enter
ing upon it as It will much facilitate thtir
labors. And to the noble and growing
army (.of inventors, who bave done so
much to build up tbe grand industries of
tbe country, tbe abridgment is specially
important not only in labor saving, bnt
in stimulating renewed efforts. Indeed,
it may be deemed one of the first steps
looking toward a reduction of the heavy
expense of obtaining patents.
