in Philadelphia, Thursday eight, tie
following, offered by Councilman Joseph
D. Murphy, was nuanlmonsly agreed to:
Whtrtat, The unsullied private snd pub
lic character of the Hon. 8amuel J. Bandall,
his devoted service to the country and the
Democratic party for more than a nuaiter of
a century, his recognition ol the intimate
and reciprocal relation! of laborand capital,
his ideas of economy and iU close connec
tion with bonett government, and hia un
wearing contest with tectionaliim combine
to make hint the fittest man to lead the
Democratic party to victory in thecomine
Presidential election, and to restore the
Government to the hoDeitv, efiiciencv. and
simplicity which marked its earlier his
lory:
Jlaohcd, By the Democratic Exe.-utive
Committee of the Third ward, that Un

Legislative district in tbe coming Stale Con

and endeavor to secure the electiou of such
delegates to the National Convention ns
will vote for the nomination of the Hon.
B-iimiel J Randall as President of the Unit-

Mr. Bandall is beinc endorsed bv all
tbe.Democratio organizations, and at tbe
Convention will have a united heme fol

talked on the subject with lion. Benton
McMtllia, of Tennessee, a prominent
leader on the Democratic side.and a true
representative of bis party. Mr. McMil
lin said to me:
"That the present tariff needs modifi
cation aud reduotion every man who Is
not a protectionist for protection's sake
must admit. I know it Is said 'the in
dustries of tbe country will be frighten,
ed.' Will tbey be less subject to fright
one or two years beuce? We should at
tempt uothlug but what is just; and no
Individual or corporation has a right to
take fright at justice. We should deal
with the question from a patriotic, rather
than a political standpoint, if tbe time
comes when tbe two do cot coincide.
But even from a political point of view
the Democracy has more to tear from in
action and cowering, than from taking
and maintaining a judicious but firm
stand in favor of reforming tbe outrage
ons enormities and defoimlties of tbe
present tariff. If we do tbis we clearly
define our policy ourselves and go to tbe
contest on our own gronnds. If we do
nothing our opponents define it for us
aud charge more than we desire to ac
complish in the way of ultra legislation.
It is vain to try to smother out the tarifl
issue. Tbe Democratic majorby of the
-15th and 46tb Congresses declined to act
and tho peopln eeut them to the minori
ty. Tbe Itepubllcans of the 47lb Con-
Kress improved some things a little,
bnt tbe people became disgusted witb
their dallying and buve eeut to tbis Con

failure to accomplish a rovisiou of the
tariff upon the Republican Senate our
present majority will drop to a minority

"What are some of the unjust dis
criminations of the present tariff, Mr.
McMilliu?"
"Why sir, the more luxuriant ond

Ou cut diamonds the duty is ouly 10 per

It is pleahant to fiud politicians who
are opposed to eacb other, who do not
allow their political rivalries to affect
tbeir social intercourse. As is.of course,
well known. Mr. Blaine is strongly op
posed to Mr. Arthur's candidacy for a
second term, and it is probable tbat Mr.
Arthur in turn doet not look on Mr.
Blaine's candidacy with any more pleas
ure. But ou New Year's day tbe Presi
dent bad the good taste to ignore the
political differences and compliment Mr.
Blaine by iuvlting Mrs. Blaine to join
tbe ladits who assisted at the White
House reception. Early this month Mr.
Blaine will acknowledge tbe courtesy bv
giving a handsome dinner to tbe Presi
dent at bis residence on Lafayette
Square.
Congress, though tbo fonnt of all real
power in tbe government, has very little
social iufiueuce at tbe capital. There
are not two t'.ozeu members known in the
higher circles of Washington society.and
most of Ibem know nothing of social life
here beyoud what is to be found in
boarding bouses and hotels. Any one
attending a reception in the West End
and then going to a hotel bop, frequent
ed almost solely by minor officials and
members' wives and daughters would
hardly believe be was in the same city.
Ultra fashionables avoid botel bops and

Tbe House was in session but two
bonrs to-ikiy when an adjournment w
taken till Monday, It was evident when
the Home met to-day that no business
would be transacted. Thopgb a number
of the committers of the House have beld
meetings they bave riot as yet prepared
any bills on which tbey are ready .to ask
consideration. On Monday next, after
tbe call for bills and resolutions for ref
erence, Mr. Ibtndall will ask considera
tion of ono of the sma'lir appropriation
bills. He will have another ready for
i tbe following day and expects them to
have material enough for tho House to
work on for the balance of tbe week. By
that time it is thought tbat n number of
bills will be reported baok and on tbe
calendar for action.
President Arthur has received the
formal thanks of the shipowners and
merchants of the New Xork Maritime
Exchange for the interests shown by him
in the matter of a commercial treaty with
Spain, though tbey do cot expect the total
abolition of the discriminations against
American vessels sailing to Spanish
ports, tbey say tbe shipping interests
bere are not without hope that the pro
posed treaty will tend at least, to miti
gate the severity of tbe Spanish custom
Jans.
Judge Tboman of the National Civil
Service Commission, speaks encouraging
ly of tbe success of the reform system.
Iu tbe six months since tbe examination
began, he snyn the' work has been carried
on in good faith, and there Is a steady
improvement in tbe character of the ap
plicants. Judge Tboman thinks tbe de
feat of Senator Pendleton iu 'Ohio is sin
cerely to be regretted, nnd that "tbe
menus by which it was brought about
merit condemuatiou."
At tbe meeting of the Senate on post
offices nnd post roads it was determined
to begiu at tbe next meeting, one week
bence, the consideration of the several
measures providing for the establishment
of a postal telegraphlo system. Senator
Edmunds will be present to give bis
views in support of tbe bill Introduced
by bim.
Siuce the reassembling of Congress
tbere Is more uneasiness on tbe part of
tbe tariff reformers and less apparent
certaiuty on tbeir part as to what tbey
are likely to do. It is said that tbey are
at least sixty Democrats ahead in
tbe House who oppose any action on the
tariff this winter, and if tbe Ilepublicars
were united in opposition to it there
could be oo bill passed in either branch.
But there are tariff reformers among the
Itepubllcans, and tbere are also others
among them who think it would be pol
icy to let the Democrats agitate tLe mat.
ter. Both sides are just a little -'torn
up," so to speak. Mr. Morrison is un
easy about Randall's activity, - bnt be
tells bis friends tbat there, must be tarifl
revisioD, aud tbat he w lU fiud means to
maKe me opportunity lor it. Mr. uon
verse comes back from Ohio with tbe
declaration tbut tbo old duty on wool
-aiUHt be restored. That, be says, is tbe
great question in bis State, und the party
cannot overlook it. Other leading Dem
ucrats think tbe duty on wool should re
main as at present There aro indica
tions of trouble among tbe Southern
members, with regard; to sugar, Mr.
MorriBon favored the rednction mode
last season. He is said to be dlspoted
to cut the duties still futtber. There Is
division in tbe ranks ou other questions,
nnd tbe outlook is unfavorable for the
harmonious notion wbicb was predicted
by the leaders three weeks ago.
The Huntingdon letters recently pub
lished have caused much talk and not a
little uceasinchs in Washington, nnd
have given new interest to tbe presence
of their author here. He usually stops
at Williard. 's, tvhere be has often enter
tained Congressional friends, but this
winter he has taken quarters at Worm
ley's where he can be more retired aud
attract lrfs attention. It is pretty well
understood what he warns here, but bis
long, lank, white whiskered lieutenant,
Sberrill, compreheuds the situation
pretty well and has told Mr. Hunting-
ton tbat be can hope for little comfort
from Congress at the present time. To
delay action, tbrongb Mr. Cobb's com
miltee, upon Und grant matters until
tbe excitement bus blown over is all they
are going to fight for tbis winter. Tbe
iuside history of this fight between tbe
Texas Pacifio nd tbe Central Pacific
compauies is not generally uuderstood.
"Tom'' Scott, with bis usual geuius.had
seen bow to strike across tbe Southern
States to Texas, nnd thence by a sbon
line below tbe range of suow blockades
to the Pacifio ocean to San Diego. The
Central Pacifio monopolists felt tbeir
danger, and, acquiring a franchise
through Arizona, ran out ith all pos
sihle speed what they called a Southern
Pacifio road irom Sin Frausisco to meet
nnd head off tbo Texas Pacific Tbey
were using tbe resources gaiued by tbeir
previous monopoly, and to compete witb
them on anything like equal terms it was
necessary to invoke the aid of Congress
by a guarantee of interest on bonds
Here was where Huntington bad tbe in
side track, for it put bis lobbies and
newspapers in tbe attitude of virtuously
fighting against subsidies and in favor of
an "unsubsldized" road, viz.. tbe South
ern Pacifio, which really enjoyed tbe
benefit of previous subsidies to the Cen
tral. So great is my confidence iu Scott's
ability, that I think be would have suc
ceeded if his health bad not broken
down, ami death already laid its Sugar
upon bis energies. Tbe Texas Pacific
never got beyond tbe State line, nud
Huntington bas carried out bis plans nu.

Tbe nuxlety of stockholders and' spec
ulators in North River Construction
Company Stock is ended, by tbe knowl
edge 'ofho worst. The concern is in
tbe bauds of a receiver, and tbe manag
ers hope thus to be able to keep tbeir
beads above water. So many inquiries
as to tbe vulne of tbis stock lor iuvett
meet or speculative purposes have reach
ed us that Inst Saturday morning, tLe
day ou which application for a receiver
was made, I called un one of the best
writers ou financial affairs in the city,
Said he: "tbe whole thing in a nutshell
is tbis. Tbe North River Constrict on
Oompnuy ntt.-mi-ted to build lor tbe
West Snore Company a railroad lor filly

million, you will i-e tbe tolly or the

houest and experienced railroad men;
tins is suowu very clearly by tbe Tact
that tbey themselves took tbe stock at

that figure, as the stock was bound to
rise tolSO.
