THE example of the Towanda editors
has been imitated by a lawyer of An
napolis, : Md., who approached the editor
of the Daily Record, in referetic:e'to an
allusion in that paper, only in this case,
several blows weie struck, and the lawyer
received a cut . over the eye. Lawyers and
editors are becoming altogether too bellig
erent and blood-thirsty.
A HORRIBLE and revolting story which
came from Burmah, to the effect that
several hundred victims had been buried
alive under the walls of the capital, to
cure the reigning sovereign of dise%so, is
now .denied. Whether the story or the
denial is the truth uncertain. The
ruler, TREF:IIAV, is said to be a cruel and
mercilesstyrant, capable of any act of
barbarism.
SENATOR WALLACE'S friends say that
that the bar'l is on tap,in Pennsylvania,
arid that TILDEN has been trying to. buy
up the State in his interest. It certainly
looks like it, but theri it's not our rouf,
and we won't interfere. There will be
lively thnekat the Coniention the 27th,
and it isn't certain which will be the up

A TERRIBLE tale comes from Malden,
Miss., of the finding of a four-year-oltl
datghter JoHN Alum', dead, on the

T,ni Superior court San Francisco,
on Saturday, decided against DENNIS
KEARNEY on his apPe_aL •confirming the
decision of the lower court. The jut - 4e
ordered a remittitur, which would send
kEARNEY to the House of Correction, but
the agitator was not present in Court, 'and
it was rumored he had absented himself
from the city. His ceetrisel announced
that they would apply for a writ of habeas
corpus to the Supreme Court, now sitting
at Los Angelos.
THE report just sent to Congress by .
Secretary SHERMAN of the operation's of
the revenue service in suppressing illegal
distilleries is rather startling. Over 3,000
stills have been seized and destroyed, and
6,153 persons have been arrested. Twen
ty-five revenue officers were killed in
making these arrests, and 49 were wound
ed. These seizures and arrests were made
in the South exclusively—all of which
may go to prove that Southern moon;
shiners love the United Stites lea and

THE Republican State Convention of
lowa met at Des Moines on Wednesday
of last week. Eight hundred and sixty
five delegates were present, every county
being represented. The name of Mr.
BLAINE as a Presidential candidate was
greeted with cheers, three times repeated.
In selecting delegates to the Chicago Con
vention, the BLAINE men carried every
district. The resolutions adopted Ondorse
Senator BLAINE as the choice of lowa,:
and the best man for the party to nomi
nate. They also instruct the delegates
to vote and use , a 4 honorable means for
his nomination.
IT is difficult to account for the
course of the' New York Tribune
upon any other ground than that it
is preparing to re-enact the role of
1872. Certainly its conductors can
not be animated by a desire for the
success of the Republican; party in
the coming Presidential t election.
The Tribune l of course, has a, right
to express a preference for any can
didate, but it has no right to assail a
prominent candidate in a manner cal
culated to work mischief should its
advice not be followed. That paper
has been singularly unfortunate in
politics. It manages generally to
`get on the losing side. It has a
chronic propensity for being wrong.
It gets outside of the Republican ,
fold with singular facility. Witness
its bolt in 1872 ; its acrid spirit
during much of GRANT'S second ad-
Ministration, and its perversity in
fighting the Republican leaders in
New York, which injured it so great
ly that it lost caste, and was obliged
to makestrenuous and humiliating
efforts to get back into the party. It
has never quite succeeded in regain
ing public confidence, and is now
losing what ground it had regained.
In the present i canvass for the Presi
dential nomination for a time it act
'ed impartjally, L but its instincts and
prejudicesiwere too strong ? and it is
now rancorously opposingithe nomi,
nation of GRANT. Were 'its spirit
candid and its arguments fair, there
would be no objection to any opposi
tion to GRANT it might display—but
it uses the argument of prejudice and
seeks by exciting fears to weaken his
cause before the public. The course
of the Tribune, if it had• any effect
upon the popular mind, would be to
weaken him, after a nomination, and
contribute towards his defeat, and
there is nothing which can justify
such conduct on the part of a pro
fessedly Republican journal.-
We doubt the propriety of any
newspaper becoming the organ or
partizan of any candidate fora nomi
nation. And there cannot be Any
doubt of the impropriety of an in
temperate and u ncand id advocacy of
any man's claims. It weakens the in
fluence of the journal, and detracts
from its usefulness to the party, after
the choice of the nominating body
has been made. Not that we would
deprive a newspaper of the right of
fully expressing its preferences and
stating its opinions, but all this can
be done in such a manner-as not to
produce bad feeling and disastrous
results: Those who favor the nomi
nation of Gen. GRANT , have a right to
their preference, and are entitled to
be considered unselfish and earnest
as well as those ivho favor other
candidates. There may be grave and
weighty reasons why he should not
be nominated, but those who are
assailing him and denouncing his
friends for supporting him would do
well, to remember what rnuaaow
WEEI admits, that " the public mind,
when an extra session of Congress
revealed revolutionary designs, turn
ed instinctively to the ex-President,"
There are those who honestly bel i leve
that the peace which has settled upon
the country is delusive; that the revo
lutionary designs have not been abgn
doned ; that the Confederate batteries
are only masked ; that the voices of
the conspirators have been stilled,
awaiting the result• of the Presiden
tial, election, and that when the De
mociacy shall once come into power,
the designs will be renewed with in
creased vigor. The apprehension
which was aroused by revealement
op revolutionary designs during the
extra session hag not been allayed In
every mind, and. those who are so
forgetful and. forgiving should:have
some respect for &publics* ,whO.
are not so quick to believe in a peace
ful future: "The judgment of a year
agp was- unanimously' in favor of
Gen. Guam,' and if all the causes
*Web prodneed that instinctive turn
ing to the ex-President have passed
away, the public mind will be ready
to acknPwledge it, and to say that
there is no necessity for the great
General to hazard his well-earned
fame by the dangers and disparage
meats Of a Presidential canvass.
But it is not necessary to urge
reasons against his nomination, which
will be weapons is the bands of our
enemies should he be the choice' of
the Chicago Convention.
THE case of the colored cadet Wurrra-
Kg.a, at West Poiut, is attracting the
attention of the country,' and has assumed
snai l an aspect, both fr o m the facts - and
theories, as to puzzle the average reader.
WHITTAKER was found one morning in
his room insensible, bound and bru4ed,
.with one ear slit and other Marks of via
lone, showing the rough treatment to
which he bad apparently been subjected.
The investigation which has been for
some time in progress seems to be con
ducted upon the theory that the ill-treat
ment was self-inflicted; and the testimony
also discloses the f4ct that the colored
cadet was - socially ostracised in that aris
tocratic institution, although he was but
slightly . "off color," and morally, men
tally and physically, the, peer of any cadet.
But it seems to.be a settled law at West
Point that no colored cadet shall have
recognition, and their lives shall be made
so .uncomfortable as to be unendurable:
By this means colored men are to be kept
out of the army. So manifest was the .
disposition to unfairly judge WHITTAKER,
and so evident the conspiracy against
him on account of his color, that it has
excited, the indignation of .the Cabinet
and members of Congress, and a shrewd
and able lawyer has been detailed to take
charge of his interests and see that justice
is done. The wisest plan would be to
abolish the West Point institution, and
thus get rid of the lazzaroni which are its
natural product.
TIIE following are the latest develop
ments in Democratic politics in. this
State :—Nearly all. of the counties hate
held their;conventions, and 225 of the 254
delegates have already been chosen. Of
these 65 are instructed for Trtnzs and
93 others are opposed to WALLACE, leav
ing the latter 67 adherents, agaireit .158
opposed to his l ersonal dictation. Of the
ninety-three tininstructcd anti-WALUtCE
men elected at least two-thirds are foi l
TILDEN, which gives TILDEN the majori
ty of the whole number of delegates to
the convention. The statement in detail
of the several counties has been carefully
made up, and sustains these figures. In
Philadelphia, as is. well known, there are
contesting delegations. The one knovin
as the VAux delegation will be solid
against WALLACE, while the McGowAN
delegation stands twenty anti-WALL:tot to
twenty-six WALLACE. This calculation
is based on the assumption that the Mc-
GOWAN people will be 'seated, but this is
still an open question, the probability be
ing that bsth will be seated with half a
rote'each, and this statement simply puts
the matter in the worst light for the anti-
WALLACE men in which it can be viewed.
WE place no dependence in the rumors
of TILDEN'S intended withdrawal. The
reports which come from Democrats of
prominence to that effect, are started
without any foundation iu truth. The
latest sensation is that TILDUI has made
RANDALL his residuary legatee, and will
at the proper time retire, and indicate his
preference for the _ immaculate Sam of
Pennsylvania. A recent gathering of
prominent Democrats in Philadelphia,
was supposed to have especial referetce
to the arrangement of such a programme.
Don't believe it, however. The Sage of
Gramercy is pot in the declining mood.
On the contrary he is tightening his
anaconda folds about the Democracy, and
will draw them closer and closer, until
his nomination is secured. The ways
of the bail. are mysterious and past find
ing out, . but they are effective, and the
anti-TILDENITES may prepare to come
down with alacrity and cheerfulness for,
their defeat is inevitable. •
IN response to the address of welcome
with- which .General GRANT was greeted
upon his arrival at Cairo, 111., on Friday
afternoon, he said.: " It has been my good
fortune to have just passed through a
little bit of every one of the Southern
States lately in the rebellion, and it is
gratifying to me, •and I know it will be
1 .1
to you, that in every o e of them scenes,
decorations, nd Ppeech 8 were much the
samb as we see and hea• *ere to-day. The
Stars and Stripes were floating everywhere.
A great portion of the speakers in every
instance were men who; in the conflict,
wore the gray, and the speeches wliih
they made show their present devotion to
the flag for which we fought, and which
is all we asked of theni—that they should
aspect and honor the flag; and become
good citizens, and hereafter, if it should
be assailed by a foreign foe, that they
should unite with us as one pe-kple. From
the assurances they give, I believe they
are sincere ; 'and I hope they expressed
the sentiments of the great majority."
TIIE Republican State Convention of
Massachusetts met at Worcester, on the
14th instant. HENRY L. DAWES was se
lected as permanent president, and made
an extended address. The name of GEO.
F. Ennumos, of Vermont, met with
much favor, but.ex-Governor BotrrwELL
made a speech in favor of General GRAN;
and somewnat turned the scale, till Hon.
JOHN E. SANFORD, from the Committee
on Resolutions, reported a list of Resolu
tions endorsing the* present administra.
Lion, and concluding in the following
words: " While we do not instruct our
delegates, we commend to their consider
ation a Republican statesman who, pos
sesses in an endnent degree such qualities
and requisites for the nominatiothe•
lion. G wean F. EDMONDS, of Vennont."
The resolutions were unanimously adept;
ed. The Convention adjourned sine die.
Born the TILDEN and anti-TILDEN
Democratic State Conventions of New
York, met at Syracuse on Toesday last.
The, anti-TILDEN assemblage was presid
ed over by Mr. DonswEiwEß, and selected
a full delegation to the Cincinnati Conven
tion, and Presidentisl 'electors. The TtL-
Emat Convention was presided over by Josx'
C. JACOBS, of Kings County. 'A
full set
of delegates was seleCted to the Cincinna

The estimates for this year point to about
12,000 miles as the probable number. The
South and Southwest are the localities
where the greater proportion .of the new
works are being constructed ; new roads
of more or less importance are being con
structed in all parts of the country. Many
extensions are being made by old roads,
and large numbers of "feeders" are being
built to meet local wants.
PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
PHILADZLPIIIA, Apsil 19.
Political and soci4l circles in this cityl,
_ L.A.-cies in this city
have been greatly agitated over occurren
ces which attracted much attention and
excited an immense - amount of comment.
The political affairloccurred in the Union
League House, a resort for staitl and re
spectable.people, 'here an excitement of
any kind is an unusual occurrence. • The
row was brought about in this way. Some
kif the ultra-respectable, overgood mem
bers, who would object to Saint Paul, if
he was ot4 earth, and suggested as a can
didate for the t'residency, have published
a pamphlet against a third term in which
tLey lodulge in severe strictures about:,
"Bosses" coupling with Boss Tweed the
name of l3oss MeManea of this city. Mr.
McManes very naturally didn't like the
connexion; and being at the League one
evening, was informed that a person
named Lockwood was actlie in circulating
the obnoxious pamphlet. Straighway
McManes interviewed the pamphleteer,
and in language more forcible than ele
gant, expressed his indignation, and; his
opinion of the pestilent colpoiteur. Not
receiving a satisfactiny answer; Mr. Mc-
Manes'emphasized his remarks by slap
!
pin - g the offender in the mouth.. This, be
sides being a personal indignity is'a gross
intraction of club rules.. The Directors
had the parties before them and heard
their statements, when • Mr. McXlnes
having expressed regret for. violation of
the rules, the matter was allowed to drop.
The'social disturbance_ took place be.
tween two members of the City Troop.
That is a military company whose chief
distinction is the antiquity of its orgaui
nth:in. Its membership • is composed of
the scions of the "first families," and
their turn-out is the especial delight of
the boot-blacks and the street gamins, as
their appearance on horseback is "im
mense." Two of the members disagreed
upon some important point of etiquette
concerning uniform, the cut of the jacket,
or something else, and from words pro.
ceeded to blows. Nothing but "the
code" could settle such a momentous af
fair, and satisfy wounded honor, so hav
ing borrowed a pair !of duelling pistols,
the parties and friends proceeded to the
State of Delaware. ; Shots were exchang
ed, nobody hurt, (the City Troupers nev
er never did hurt anybody) the belliger
ents lunched together and came back in
harmony. The affair created en immense
amount of sarcasm and ridicule, but is
likely to become serious, as the civil au
thorities are disposed to put down that
sort of amusement, even if it is harmless.
There was an exciting scene at the cir
cus Wednesday afternoon, which was not
down in the bills, and which shows the
danger and folly of trapezeperformances.
The French family , Davene, are celebrated
for their daring feats. Among other dif
ficult feats one of Davene's daughters, a
petite wiry little damsel, who does not
appear to he over fifteen years old, takes
a flying leap from a trapeze bar, dashes
through a paper hoop and lands 'high u?
near the roof *of the canvass in the antis
of her sisters. In essaying this she either
jumped too quickly or did not give the
proper spring, At all events, upon re
leasing her hOld of the bar, her head
came in contact with a swinging foot rest,
striking her near the temple and render
ing her insensible: -She fell to the ground
below, and was carried out. The audience
believing that for the time being that the
girl was killed, no little excitement was
created, and they looked toward her sis
ter, hanging by her feet to the bar above,
expecting every moment to see her fall.
Miss Davene was immediately removed
to her hotel, where she soon regained con
sciousness, and a physician was summon
ed. Ile reported her not seriously injur
ed, no bones having been broken, she
having been simply stunned by the force
of the blow from the bar.
The grand jury on Wednesday last
found true bills against Assistant High
way Commissioner . Haines and contrac
tors Miskey and Young, charging them
with complicity to cheat and 'defraud the
city by means of securing a contract at
excessive rates of remuneration, by brib
ing competitors to either refrain from
bidding, onto put in bids high enough to
cover those to be put in, in the interest
of the defendants.
The shad " boom " is now at its height.
The fisheries on the Delaware are in full
operation, and repayirig the exertions of
the fishermen. A. big shad net was used
.at Gloucester, 'On Wednesday last for the
first tiwe. It is 4,500 feet in length, and
after being robed into the river to its full
extent, sweeps a circuit of nearly two and
a half miles, reaching from the end of the
beach to the ferry, and stretching far out
into the bend at Howell's Cove. Tienty
men are needed to fish it, and every two
hours, between the ebb and flow of the
tide, the operation of drawing it on shore
by a windlass on the beach, is repeated.
The tradition is; that if the first haul Is a
bad one, a successful season . gilt be real
ized. The shad caught are numbered by
the thousands, on successful days. They
are sold akeboufs2s per hundred.. The

Thesctive seaman in foreign freits has
just commenced, and oranges, bSnanai,
pineapples, and cocoanuts are arriving in ,
large jquantities. Formerly the greater
part of the fruit sold in this market came
via New York, but now an enterprising
firm here is bringing all the fruit needed.
A steamer.brings usually 6,500 bunches
of bananas and 25,000 cocoanuts. The
yellow bananas come from, Jamaica and
the red ones from Cuba: The yellow ba
nanas sell the best, because they grow
more to the bunch. The bunches are sold
at about the same price, so the retailers
can afford to sell the yellow ones for. less
and still make a better profit than they
can en the red ones. The flavor t;fa ba
nana depends a great deal on the soil in
which it is . raised. They are cut!: while
twits green and ripened after being land
ed, in rooms which are kept at a:certain
temperature. Pineapples come from the
Bahamas, and the trade continues until
about the middle of May. Oranges have
tmen' plentifully supplied from Florida,
but they are now about out of the mar
ket,. and those from the island of Sicily
and Valencia, Spain, are taking their
place. The West India oranges come in

next: two months. Limes ,later in the
season. A leading dealer says about
prices that oranges bring from $8.75 to
$4 per box ; lemons from $4 to $5, babas-,
as from $2 to $4 per bunch, according'
to size ; limes from $6 to $lO a barrel fof
from 1,200 to 1,500 ; pineapples, this witi4
son, will wholesale at from $lO to $l2 pixt.
hundied. These prices are about twenty
five per cent. 'higher than those of last
season, and the trade is active and steady.
The manner of doing business in the
Courts here, is discouraging to the enter
prising burglar. A scamp undertakes to
despoil somebody's premises, is detected
,in the attempt, arrested, a bill of indict
mut indrawn, presented to the Grand
Jury, approved,' sent to the Court ;' the
case is called, and in less than twenty
four hours from the time when he assay
ed to do his criminal work, be finds him
self on his way to the penitentiary, with
a sentence of three, four, five or six years
hanging over him.
Little more than a week ago one Albert
Goerson, a bogus doctor, living at Ken
sington, was declared by the verdict of a
Coroner's jury to have been instrumental
in causing the death of his wife by &wing
her with arsenic. Last Saturday his life
was still. placed in a greater peril by ano
ther jury arriving at the decision that his
mother-in-law, who died a few days be
