m'i i r .u :,.m-n.:l which I Court in that Countv. As Mr. Iluirhes is
started out neutral, hut has lately fallen
into the Democratic cesspool, is setting up
a tremendous howl about the possession of
the foniitv Commissioners' olhee. If the
neonle did not know any bettor, thev would

lir w-Kiimft fbnt a buekMiot war or
a rebellion was pending at the county seat
The editor has got to be a monomaniac on
the subject, and boasts of "war,'- "clash
of resounding arms,"' c, just as the
Southern Senatois aud Congressmen did
in 1SG0 and Hut then lie is making
all the noise alone, as no one else is expect
ing any serious results, nor that the office
will not lie surrendeied when the proper
time arrives. If the editor would publish
the sections of the Xcw Constitution,which
refer to the subject, his readers would all
readily understand the situation correctly,
and there would be no necessity of deceiv
ing the public. Whenever the time arrives
that -Mr. Henry cau legally occupy his
office, to which he has been elected, it will
l: ready for him, aud all theftus the editor j
cau make, will Ik- of no avail, and wiil only j
prove that he is doing it through schlsh
motives. It Ins influence nail win simi
cieutly ft if, he ini;;ht have pushed llenry
through, who might enjoy the office before
he is entitled. Hut as the editor and Mr.
Henry's advisers, probably, have not read
the New Constitution, they must abide by
the law the same as other iieojile. We do j
not apprehend any "clashing of arms" or
"buckshot war," however, unless the
"lling'- contemplate to imitate their south-
in friends during the late "onpleasant-
lies.

duce, the duties on iron aud steel, which,
if successful, would almost utterly destroy
- -
these important interests. Any further
tariff legislation of au a.lveise character
inevitably, iu the present depressed condi
tion of the industries and business of the
country, prove a national calamity, and no
labor on the part of our manufacturers
vent it. Home
i in order toen-ia11
should be spared to prcve
products must be protected
able producers and manufacturers to con
tinue business, aud furnish their laborers
and cmp'oyces witl; work". Indeed, the !
present depressed condition of business is
a strong argument for the passage of a con- j
siderable higher protective tariff law (ban j
that which now exists. It is iu this direr- i
tion that :hairw- must Ik- made, if at all.

JloN. Wm. F. Havkmaykk, Mayor of
the City of New York, died suddenly in
his office, on Monday lust. He had been
out of the city, on a visit to a friend, and
cn his ret nrn, walked several miles against
the cold wind. He complained of not feel-
ing wen on reacmng ins onice, anu aner
warming himself, commenced reading the
letters on his table, when he suddenly rose
from his seat and fell unconscious on the
floor.
Mr. Havermayi r was born of Cerman
parents in New York, nearly 71 years ago.
He was universally etoeined for his honesty
of purpose, energy and ability, and was
three times elected Mayor of that great
City. He was one of the leading Demo
crats, who with such men as (.'harks Con
ner, Samuel I. Tilden and others, united
with the Kepubueans, and overthrew
the Tweed government, in 1S71.

which sounds Ronicthiug like the numerous
statements we have had relative to the dis
coveries of perpetual motion :
A Philadelphia!! is said to have invented
a machiue with which by the use of only
two gallons of water, he can generate suffi
cient motive power to riiu a train from
Philadelphia, to San Faucisco and back.
The water is used over and over again, aud
no fuel, cht electricity or magnetic
currents are used. A trial of the machine
was made recently in the presence of thru
1 witnesses sworn to secrecy, who were as
I tonished at the simplicity and power of the
I invention. It is kept closely concealed,
. under lock and key, and is shown only to
experts sworn not do divulge the secret.
; Although it is proposed by this invention
to sujwnvde steam, the new machine will

PlitLADELriiiA, Dec. 1. The first meet
ing or the creditors of Jay Cooke A; i'o. was
l.f'ltl ftv.ilnv U'li.-ti llu. renort of t lit triit...v
was submitted. In regard to a dividend
the report says :
The Committee have deemed it proper to
revoke the order for a dividend and ditri-
,,.ti.,n m..,.l,. on t hf. Hf 1. of Mir. Sine flint
date the (.pinion of the court ha9 been given
upon the proper construction of the 4;id
section of the Bankrupt act, and the Com
mittee have thought it best to hold a meet
ing on the 1st day of December, as set out
in the notice issued on the Oth day of No
vember for the purpose of considering the
subject of dividend and distribution with
other matters, us mentioned in that notice.
This appeared tu the Committee to be the
more appropriate method of discharging
the duties iu this regard. Il should be un
derstood that the cash account filed by the
trustee does not distinguish items derived
from the individual estates of bankrupts
from those derived from partnership pro
perty. The trustee has, however, made a
careful analysis for the balance of S750,
o."i0 .'5s, shown to be in his hands from these
sources respectively, and the results iu the
aggregate show that the sum of .-Wl,013
04 is all that is applicable at the present
stage of the proceedings for a cash dividend
to the creditors. The precise amount of
claims against Die estate has not, yet been
definitely ascertained, and cannot be until
the determination of the exceptions that
have been taken to several of the larger
I
claims
A conversation ensued, during which
Mr. lhillitt said if the claims preferred
against individual members of the linn
are proved there will be hardly anything
left for the creditors of the firm. Iluring
the conference between the Committee and
the creditors the best of order prevailed, '
aud at its close the majority of those pre
sent retired apparently satisfied for the time
being with the explanation made to them.
These meetings will be held daily until the
object thereof is accomplished.

Washington, Dec. 1. The President,
at the meeting of the Cabinet to-day, sub
mitted portions of his message, particularly
that part relating to the finances and the
national material prosperity. Those who
pretend to be in the President's coutidence
and have annouueed that he would, in a
measure, weaken in his hard money ideas,
will find themselves further from the facts
than ever before. He will speak iu the I
strongest language in favor of a sjiecie basis
for all transactions at home aud abroad,
and will urge Congress to take some steps
to that end, before it is too late. lie will
also urge a liberal policy toward home in
dustries, in order to encourage the laborer
and bring business back again to the fur-
' nace, the shin-yard, and the factory. He '
will especially urge the necessity of encour- i
aging and fostering shipbuilding. The Se- i
crelary of the Treasury read to the Cabinet
portions of his renort on the financial situa- hope of the future. "Hope springs eternal mon wealth against any prisoner, are requested

A number of charitable ladies who have
time and money more than they know
what to do with, and some little heart, es
tablished, a year or so ago, a training
school, to fit irls for service, on Tenth
street. They lake raw girls, and teach
them to cook, wash, iron, sew, to wait at
table, and to do everything that comes un
der the general head of housework. The
work of preparation is done iu no slovenly
way. Twice a week a French cook goes
into the kitchen with all the girls, and de
livers to them a lecture on the preparation
of such dishes as she selects.illustrating by
actually doing the work before them, and
making them do it. They run a laundry,
a lestauratit, and a dressmaking establish
ment in the house, to the end that it shall
be, not only of use to the girls by teaching
them their duties by actual practice, but
that it shall be self-sustaining, which it is,

of this sensible charity is Mrs. Julia Cor- 1

The mania, now runniug among those
who ouikl ai ail is ailitii.te. ouie years
ago the Imputable Life Insurance Company
ran up a building that loomed above any
thing else on lower Hroadway, and since
that height has run in the minds of every
body. The new Tilhunt building is nine
immense stories high, with a tower almost
touching the sky ; the ucw building of the
Western Union Telegraph Company is al
most as high ; the Domestic .Sewing Ma
chine Company is eight; the new post
ollice cannot be couuted in stories, but it is
au enormous building, and so on. The
view of the city from the Jersey City Ferry
id becoming peculiarly pleasant. These
buildings, with the scoics of others, tower
up above their surroundings, relieving won
ilerfully the monotonous uniformity which
formerly wearied the eye. Those tall
buildings do nut pay in fact, every oue of
them is a dead loss above the fourth story ;
but, nevertheless, I hope the building of
them will go on. They beautify the city,
and the public get a benefit whether the
proprietors by or uot. It is a tact that
none of these buildings pay three per cent.
on the cost of construction and present price
of ground ; but the proprietors all live in
hilarity, and what better, charity. The
various charitable institutions of the city
were supplied with more than usual liber -
ality. and every deserving poor person in
the city got one good square meal. At the
three mission-houses in the Five Points
over 3JbO people were fed. The prisons
all gave the inmates a special dinner, and
all hospitals, charities aud all other institu-
tions did likewise. The newsboys homes
and lodging-houses had a "rand time.

A Magnificent Conception, wonderfa'ly

The necessity of a popular medium for the

the result waa a great artistic and commercial
triumph THE ALDIXK.
THE ALD IX E, while issued with all the regu

terest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It
is an elegant mUcellany of pure, light, and
graceful literature ; and a collection of picture, .
the rarest specimens of artistic skill, la black

value and beauty of the THE ALDIXE will be
