EDITORIAL NOTES.
J. Cooke, the famous banker, has
been discharged from bankruptcy.
Tilden will make public his loiter of
acceptance an soon ns he can nee Mill
Tweed.
The Republicans are talking now of
carrying New York state for Hayes
und 'Wheeler.
West Tennessee proposes to present
the name of ex-Governor Ishnm G
Harris for the sent of ex-President
Johnson in the Senate, now tilled by
Judge Key.
The headqunrtes of the Republican
State Committee are at 8303 Chestnut
street, Philadelphia. Hon. Henry H.
Hoyt, the efficient Chairman of last
year, is the Chairman this year with
Major Jforris as Secretary.
The proposition to rim William M.
Evarts, the eminent lawyer, as the
Republican candidate for governor of
Kew York is favorably received not
onlv at home but abroad. Were he to
accept a nomination there is very
little doubt but he would carry the
utate by a sweeping majority.
Governor Hayes was not enticed
into the war bv a commission. He
enlisted as a private; had "not time"
to go home to attend an election;
rose to the rank of general; lias killed
off three Democratic governors, and is
cirtaln to make sure the obsequies of
Uncle Sammy next fall.
It is unfortunate that General Grant
should feel that he has placed his ad
ministration in opposition to the sen
timcnts of Governor Hayes' letter,
That letter is satisfactory to the Re
publican party and to the country
and if necessary it should be the Frosi
dent's first pleasure and duty to make
his administration conform to the
principles therein laid down.
The Ohio campaign was opened by
the Republicans of I ronton on Tues
day by the erection of a, large Hayes
and Wheeler pole, 220 fret high
erected by the workingmen of the
mills and furnaces of that region.
salute of thirty-eight guns was fired
by two Hayes batteries, and addresses
made by the leading Republicans to a
crowd of about 3,000.
Tilden says the office holding class
have become so numerous, powerful
and unscrupulous that they assume to
control the elections. This probably
refers to the time when himself, Ross
Tweed and Tammany ring returned a
Democratic majority of more than 17,
000 in four wards of New York city
where the whole legal vote was less
than 12,000.
Every time the editor of the Madison
Patriot, of Wisconsin, sits down to
write a soulstirring article in favor o
Tilden, this sentence, which ho pub'
lished two days before the Governor
was nominated, rises up and dis
couraged him: "Besides beinga hard'
soft - bhinplaster - anything-to- make
dollars man, Gov. Tilden is a big rail
way shark, with a double row of teeth
all 'round."
From statements just made public
it appears that the actual number of
men on duty in the army is 20,979;
7,030 are in the territories; 3,718 are in
Texas, and 3.334 in the southern states.
General Terry has in the field 1.123
men and Crook 1,7'JO, of which proba
bly fully 2,000 are to-day fit for active
service. The remainder of the army
is doing garrison duty at forts in
northern states.
The creditors of the First National
Bank of Washington City will receive
every cent of their claims, the Comp
tro!ley of the Currencp having just
declared the final dividend of twenty
live per cent., making in all dividends
amounting to one hundred per cent.
How different this showing is from
that which usually followed the sus
pension of the old State banks, and
yet the Democracy decry the National
bank system.
The Albany Journal says New
York is a Republican State on a full
vote, and produces the figures to prove
it. Tilden 'a vote when he was elected
Governor was 410,391, the largest ever
polled for any Democratit ticket in
that State. At the same time it was
over 30,000 less than the Repub
lican vote for Governor in 1872, when
General Dix was elected, and when
the full strength of the Republican
party was brought out by the excite
ment and importance of the national
campaign.
"Good government, good will, good
money and universal prosperity" are
the four good things which, Mr.
Wheeler says the Republicans desire
to secure for the country. They are
just what the country needs, and it is
to be hoped It will reeeive them. Bad
government, hatred, unredeemable
paper money and adversity are a
curse to any nation. But if we have
bad government we are 6ure to have
all the other evils. Let ua hope and
pray then for wise and prudent coun
sels in the administration of the
ountry's affairs.

VhUaddphUi, July '29th 1870.
Among tho foreign exhibitors, who come
in for so large a share of the honors of the
fair, the greatest of miracle-worker, are the
Swiss, whose experincss in labor of minute
detail is shown in the many curious things
of their department. As you enter the
court, a crowd of amused people is press,
ing upon one of the attendants, mid the
notes of a- very tiny bird greet the ear.
The attendant has ,in his hand a gilt and
ennmel jewel box, about three inches long
and a hulf wide. The moment he opens the
lid a gaudy little bird of half a dozen
colors springs from the inside on to n perch,
and pipes a joyous, clear-throated song,
flapping its wings, opening and shutting
its beak, audswiugiug from side to side in
the mist natural uianncrconceivab'c. The
bit-d itself is about an inch in length from
beak to tail, and its song lasts two or three
minutes, when it springs into the box again,
aud the lid closes upon it with a sharp rap:
In the same cabinet are Liliputian watches,
which look small by the side of a gold dollar
watches supplied with the very latest im
provements nnd guaranteed as good time
keepers, every part of which has been
wrought and put together unler powerful
ninguifying-glnsses. Here is a Bteni-winder
set in a hLger-ring, about a third of an
inch in diameter; another scarcely larger,
set in a ball-charm; and another whose case
is crusted with diamonds and pearls. The
price ot the firBt one is $1,100 gold, ex
clusive of duty.
From the SwieB department it is but one
step into that of lielgium. Here the prin
cipal feature, is the large array of laces from
Brussels ami Mechlin. From the most
gauzy pattern to the elaborately designed
window cuitiins, thecntiie collection rep
resents the patient and dilligeut to iliug of
ninny skillful hands. lacing the centre
aisle is a large pulpit and canopy, carved
in the most profuse and elaborate manuer,
with representations of scriptural scenes
in high relief. This nnd several eideboards
and bookcases and a large mantel-piece
show to what perfection wood-carviug is
carried on in that county. There is also
a tine display of marble mantels nnd mar
ble slabs, upon some of which landscapes
and retires are wrought with aqnatortis;ana
there are iron and steel slabs and warlike
arms, linen fabrics, and in fact nearly every
furm of industry is represented.
Egypt, a country that occupies many
pages of ancient history, salutes America
with: "The oldest people in the world
sends its morning greeting to the youngest
nation:'' and with the greeting sends quaint
statuary, precious works in wood nnd stone
and cloth evidences ot her antiquity in
history and her proeress in civilization.
Among these exhibits are two chastely-
carved blnck-wn.nut cabinets, inlaid with
mother-of-pearl, ebony, and ivory suits of
ormor, and barbaric horse-equipments
The central cases are rilled with velvets
and cloth, closely embroidered with gold
and silver thread, which glistened us
though every spangle was a jewel. Aud
these elaborate illuminations ate the work
of men of clumsy-fingered men in the city
of Cairo. Ami this calls to mind a little
incideut which goes to show that acquaint
unce ith the details of Bibical history is
not nearly so well diffused as it should be,
At least there are parties who are not suffi
ciently ncquamtcd with the narratives
there contained to recognize them in the
groups contained iu the collection in the
Main liuilding cast of the transept and
south ot the navo. Amongst the groups is
one very elaborate one, with life-size
figures, representing the Wise Men of the
East bowing to the Saviour. A parly of
visitors from the far-off rural districts were
viewing this- Discussion aro3e concern
ing the subject represented, which was
finally settled by an old woman who insis
ted that it was a representation of Moses
in toe bulrushes. The "Id lady was sin
cere and the saeredness of the subject for
bade a smile at ber expense..
I am requstedto state that the necessary
preparations ore being actively pushed
forward for a Centennial Dog Show, which
it is confidently anticipated, will excel any
similar exhibition yet held in the United
States- Very . gratifying responses have
been received from the owners of fancy
dogs in Great .Britain and Ireland, and
should there be anything like a fair repre
eentation of the maguiucient displays of
dogs annually hold at the Crystal 1'ulace
in Loudon, it will make the Centenuial
Canine Exhibition worthy of the occasion
Tho greatest inducements are held out by
the committee to secure animals tor ex
hibition. The prizes offered are of a very
handsome character and silver cups from
various sporting organizations in the
Western Stutes. Five judges (four Ameri
can and one foreign) will be appointed,
and nothing left undone to make the ex
hibition a great success. The entr.es will
close on August 15, and parties desirous o
obtaining forms cau obtain them from the
office of the Agricultural Department
Among the special prizes already offered.
the Philadelphia Sportsman Club offers a
silver eup, value $100, for the best setter
dog over one year old; also, a silver cup
value $100, for the best pinler dog over one
year old. The Detroit Uun club oners
$ 100 silver cup for the best one-year-old
setter from Michigan. Several other
prizes are announced by private parties
and by the publishers f vurious sporting
papers.
The grand trophy of mineral and agricul
tural produots of the United States in tti
Government Building is now rapidly as
sutning an appearance of completeness, as
new samples are daily arriving and being
placed in position. Three bales of the
finest cotton from Maryland, Georgia and
Texas were recently received and added to
the previous collection. The columns of
ooal from the MonmouUi vein, iu Ujis State
has bees' gradually extended until it
readies a height of forty-three' feet.
Around the base are immense blocks of
marble from Tennessee and Vermont.
Samples of niokel, iron, South Carolina
phosphates, magnetio iron ore from Lake
Chnmplain, and some fine speoimens of
wheat, rye, and other eereals are among
the more recent arrivals. The remainder
of the exhibit is expected within the next
week or ten days. The task of creating
such a trophy was undertaken by Prof.
Dlake, in charge of the mineral department,
more than a month agj, but as there has
necessarily been delay in seleotlng, pre
paring and transporting the samples it was
found impossible to finish it as early as at
first anticipated. When oompletcd, the
display will he one of groat Interest, not
only to Americans, but to visitors from all
countries.
Another of the new things is the parti,
colored struoture with four towers that
stands near Agricultural Hall. It is de
voted soley to displaying the merits of
what is callod a tea and coffee press an
apparatus for making these beverages by
confining the material in a strong cylinder
with a sieve at the bottom and pouring the
water upon it. The swelling of Hie tea.

decoclion. A ourlous feature of the inven
is tTtht strong celfee can bo made with cold
water, the process requiring one hour's
time, however, while with boiling water
about ten minutes are consumed.
Now that the wenthor has coolod off, the
hottest thing hereabouts ig the wnr ot the
l'inno manufacturers The award of the
udecs has not yet been announced, but
seme of tho firms interested nre loud
heir charges of a "put-up job,'' and the

employees more ornamental than useful.
