Reu Butler was defeated for Gov
ernor in the Massachusetts radical
state convention, last week.
In the radical state convention of
New York, last week there was a big
fight between the Graut and Greeley
men. The Graut meu had things their
owu way, and the Greeley ilea bolted.
The New York Democracy.
The Netg York democracy, in their
state Convention, at Rochester, last
week,did a noble thing, one which will
strengthen the party, and secure for it
—as it already receives—the praise
of upright meu of all parties and
creeds, for denouncing corruption in
its own ranks, and excluding the "lam
manv delegation of New Aork city,
until it shall have purged itself of the
charges of assisting in the plundering*
which have come to light in the city
government. This was right, aud it is
an example which other parties should
follow, when corrupt men and rings
are found to be stealing the public
monies, and such an example should
be made of these characters, in state
and county conventions everywhere.
For some weeks it has been kowu
that there was dishonesty in the city
government of New A ork, which is in
the hands of the democrats, although
radicalism has a share iu the blame,
hut the democrats instead of trying to
smother the thing, and letting the
plunderers go unpunished, at once set
about to have an investigation, and
to bring the guilty to puuishmeut >
though they be democrats. This is
the right step, and the entire demo
cratic press of the state is out in denun
ciatson of these men, and demands
that they be tried, and dealt with in
accordance with law. The democracy
in state convention spoke in denuncia
tion of the frauds that have been com
mitted and even excluded the Tam
many delegation from the city from
seats in the convention until they
should purge themselves. Here is an
example of what we call pure demo
cracy, and if such a course is persist
ed in, we shall soon bring back the
country to the old, honest days of
yore, and speculating and plundering*
will have to cease.
The democracy of New York, by
this action, has become stronger than
ever before, and honest people will
know that our party means to be true
to it 3 professions, an example and a
lesson which we hope the democracy
of old Centre will follow and profitby
whenever occasion demands.
Bravo! the gallant democrcy of
New York ! next November will perch
victory upon your banners.
- The World says :
The Democratic State Convention has
met, deliberated, exciuded the Tam
many frauds, pledged the partv to a
new charter, adopted a liberal plat
form on national questions, nominated
an honest ticket adjourned, and com
mitted the success of the canvass to
the patriotic Democratic electors of
, the noble Empire State. We believe
it will be the general verdict of the
Denocraoy that the work done at Ro
chester has been well done. Certain
it is, that it was not done in the inter
est of any corrupt political clique, or
to feed any morbid personal ambition,
or in submission to the dictates of any
single domineering will, but in that
truly Democratic spirit which swears
in the words of no master, but con
sults and counsels for the common
good.

huudred soldiers are now on duty;
this piecaution was necessary, for re
markable as it may seem, there were
fiends who still sought to extend the
disaster. Two men were caught in
the act of firing houses on the West
Side. They were seized and immedi

Mayor Hall in Court.
Mayor Hall appeared this morning
at Yorkville police court to answer
charges of malfeasance in office. The
accusation was brought by ex-Judge
Barrett, of counsel for the citizens con
stituted of seventy, on the affidavit ol
W. F. Copeland 'formerly book-keeper
in Comptroller Connolly suffice, charg
ing Hall with converting the funds,
or permitting them to ne converted
from their lawful use by the agency
of warrants for the payment of millions
of dollars for work not performed, said
warrants having l>een presented to An
drew J. Garvey, James H. Ingersoll,
George 8. Miller, 8. J. Smith and
others. There was an unusally large
police force in court. Mayor Hall
waived an examination and offered
bail in any amount. Judge Barrett,
the counsel for the prosecution, said
there was no necessity for the mayor's
giving bail, as it was not contemplated
to hold him in durance.
THE MAYOR'S ADDRESS.
Mayor Hall, addressing the court,
said : 1 am here to disappoint the mal
ice of my partisan enemies by refusing,
as I shall by action to day, to aid in
initiating any political campaign by
contributing personally anything to
the sensations of the campaign ; and I
am here to relieve ) our honor and the
distrct attorney of any responsibility
in the matter. I am here, in accor
dance with the statutes, to waive an
examination and offer bail, knowing
that if this charge ever acquires gravi
ty enough to come before a jury—that
tribunal where it can be investigated to
the satisfaction of the people and ray
gelf, and before I enter into the form
alities necessary I desire in this most
public manner to thank the hundreds of
frieuds who yesterday, from the million
aire to the laborer, tendered me their
services as bail, the hundreds of pro
fessional gentlemen, some of them in
this room now who freely volunteered
and enthusiastically tendered rue their
I support. I shall do as every gentle
man should do, for the purpose of bail,
select |HK moat intimate personal friends
out of the profession. Mr. l*Auca will
become my bail. In compliance with
the statute, 1 tender liiiu its bail ami
waive an examination, and inv bail is
ready. (Great applause in the court)
District Attorney Garvin said: The
gentlonian who addressed you lias un
doubtedly the right to do as he ha*
done, and that leaves nothing further
to do on the part of the prosecution
1 therefore submit the matter to your
honor to take such action as, under the
circumstances, you may deem proper.
Mr. Barrett, ofcuunscl for the commit
tee of seventy' said that they wete
theienndcra sense of duty, without
malice ; therefore he would di*ap|totut
the mayor by suggesting to the publia
prosecutor that he should not a*lt any
bail except the mayor's own |>ersonal
recognizance.
Attorney tiarvin said he would he
satisticd with anv decision of the court.
Judge Bixhv said he would not take
(tail. The mayor explaiud that his
remarks were of a general natute ; did
not relate to counsel, parliularly dis
claimed auv reference to Mr. Barrett.
At the conclusion of the mayor's re
marks the audience rose siinullanrouly,
cheered and yelled frantically for sev
eral minutes while the mayor was
passing from the court.
John tjuimy Adams Accepts the
Democratic Nomination tor Gov
ernor.
Uuiucy, Septomber 27, lt71.
lion Edward Avery, Chairman Democratic
State Convention.
Dear Sir: 1 have receives! your otfi-j
eia!announcement that the convention;
over which you recently presided at
Springfield, selected me as their candi
date for Gnvcnor. I feel very sensibly
such a tokeu of confidence of a large
number of tellow-citizens, and I grate
fully accept the honor. It is unneces
sary for me at this dav to rehearse to
my frienda.in Massaehusels my opin
ton upon public atfairs, eepectaly as
they were substantially epitomized in
the resolves adopted by the convention.
They have uudergoueno recent change.
Now, as formerly, 1 think it wise to
use calm and moderate methods in
tiealng with quesiions of state, to ad
here scrupulously to constitutional
forms iu enforcing the will of the peo
ple, and to make baste siowlv with
revolutionary reforms. But 1 may
be pardoned if, in view of a hesitation
which lit gers here and there, I declare
mv especial satisfactsiou at the position
adopted by the convention iu respect
to the latter amendments to the Con
stitution of the United States. I Kin
heartily glad to see good citizens who
have disputed the p an of adjiistmetit
required bv the party iu power so long,
us it was debatable, acquiesce cheer- j
fully wheu once it has become irrevo
cable. It seenisto me to be the ;art of
patriotism uow to accept honestly and ',
without mental reservation those
amendments as the final settlement
and pacification of the civil war, and:
theu to turn resolutely away fromi!
the irriialiug and painfull memories
of the past to the pressing duties of ,
the future. The future, if we wisely
improve it, may be made to redeem,
aud more than redeem, all the suffer
ings and all the errors of the past. It
may warn us to guard jealously the
invaluable habit of local self-govern
ment, while we yield to the irresistible
instinct* of natioual uuitv. It uia
teach us to alleviate oppressive taxa
tion by economy and skill in fiscal man- •
agemeut, so tbut a tariff may no longer
strangle trade. Universal arnness and
equal rights may once again demon
strate to the world that the people at
their homes may be trusted to preserve
the peace and maintain ihc'principles
of liberty without ftddiers to make
them afraid. And above all, a kiod.y
and considerate policy towards van
quished citizens may make us again a
prosperous aud happy people, cordially
united in a friendship based upon mu
tual esteem and cemented by identi
cal interests.
Respectfully, your obedient servant,

Mormons Malcontent.
.Salt Lake. Oct. 5.—A special Con
ference of the Church of Jesus Christ
(Latter Day Saint*), was he.d to-day,
in the new Tabernacle. About eight
thousand were present. The three
first Presidents Brighara Young, Geo.
Smith, and Daniel Hells, the twelve
apostles. And the high priests and
other church dignitaaies, were on the
plaform-
Among the speakers was George t£.
Cannon, who aspires to Bucceed lirig
ham Young. His remarks were gen
erally bitterly denunciatory of the
Federal officials, lie termed the ring
coerciou, and said he did not anticipate
that the Mormons would leave the
Territory. They have broken no law,
and had not violated the Constitution.
The persecution inaugurated against
them would only enhance the interest
and accelerate the progress of work of
God. He rejoiced that the devil was
not yet dead, for they were not yet per
fect, and his services could not yet be
dispensed with, Brighnm Young, Jr.,
spoke most excitedly. He said the
Mormons had settled the mountain
region and they were entitled to its use,
exclusive occupatiou and enjoyment.
They asked no favors or assistance
from any source. They defied all
their enemies, the Government of the
United States included. The Govern
ment officials, now persecuting them,
were the tools o! the devil, lie pray
ed God to curse them all for ever.
Said he with violent jesture, "trust to
God, keep your powder dry, and don't
fail to have on hand a good supply of
fixed ammunition."
The latter remarks were received
with a universal "amen," and loud
cheering and clapping of hands.
The Kejeeted Mormon Jurors.
f/pinion of Chief Jurticc McKtan.
Salt Lake City, September '27.- In
relation to the challenging and rejec
tion of Elders George Q. Gannon, H.
B. Clafson, and James Townsend as
grand jurors, they having testified that
polygamy is ouc of the fundamental
doctrines of the church of which they
are members, that they believe that
polygamy is u revelation from God to
that church, and that they do not be
lieve that a man living in polygamy is,
guilty of adultery, Chief-Justice Mc-
Keari has just pronounced the follow-!
ing opinion : "The sophism by which
polygamy is sought to be justified as
being in harmony with American civ
ilization is that polygamy is a relig
ious practice ; that religious toleration
is one of the fundamental principles of
American institutions and of the Fed
eral constitution ; and therefore polyg
amy is protected by the constitution,
and all laws enacted against it arc un
constitutional. If the mass of the
American people were bnrbarians, or
the tribal system of government pre
vailed among them, tt is needless to
say that our constitution and institu
tion could not exist. It is not a little
humiliating that it should seem to be
necessary to add that our constitution
and institutions do not require—nay,
do not permit—the toleration of any
practice which wages againßt the exis-
teuco of civilisation. Ther* have
been religious which have require*! the
offering tin of liuiiittii sacrifice* to the
sun and the casting of infant children
to the crocodiles of the Ganges. Hut.
if such deeds were done in this ooun
try, is there in all the land one tunn so
dishonest that he would attempt to
justify thetu by the pica of religious
toleration? Hut why waste lime in
discussing such a proposition a* that
involved in this case? When the
burglar is a tit juror to inquire into
the crimes of burglary ; w hen the rob
ber is a tit juror to inquire into the
crime of larceny ; when the assassin is
a lit juror to iuquiro into the crime of
murder, thcu the bigamist, who swears
in substance that crimes are bis reli
gion, may be a til juror to inquire into
itlie crimes of bigamy and adultery.
Hut, thanks to centuries of Christian
civilization, that lime is not now, and
judging from the steady progress of tht
human race that time will never come
The challenger is sustained, and lb<
three jurors named are rejected.
Measuring the Velocity of Light
I Wo |>ro|Ke giving a popular account
'of tho ingoniout. yet very simple melhodr
by which moil of science have ui'cced*>.
in measuring extremely minute port mm
of time with >uch certainty in their result*
a that expressed by Professor Rood, whose
confidence iu his billionths ul a second lis>
probably surprised your readers as much
as his results have interested them.
A wheel painted black and carrying a
distinct white point on it* circumference is
| provided with some means of giving its
uniform motion oI rotation. If the wheel
i make one revolution in one-sixth of n see
ond, the white point will appear as a con
tinuous circle, for any impression pro
jduced on the eye remains during one-sixth
of a second, therefore during one revolu
tion of the wheel all the successive posi
tions on the circumference occupied by the
! bright point reiuaiu impressed on the eye,
and hence the circle appears unbroken
Now, if a flash of light in the light in the
place of the white point should last one
sixth of a second, the circle would appear
complete; hut if it lasted one-twelfth or
one-twenty-fourth of a second, then would
the poiut describe one-half or one-quarter
of the circle. Thus, by this simple means
—remembering llial the smaller the arc at
the circle, the less the duration of the flash
—we can readily measure, from the length
of this arc, quite minute jiurtion* of time.
If, iiutmul of having one white point on
the wheel, we have oue hundred or more
radial white band* drawn with the apace
between them tqual to their breadth, thun
|if the wheel make* ten turn* in a tecond,
iany radial white band will advance into
the petition previously occupied by an ad
joining black band in one thousandth of a
'tecond, and if the flash of light latted one
'thousandth of a tecond all the white band*
would, during that interval, havo advanc
ed into the position of the black band*, and
i rice wni, and the disk would appear with
out band* and covered with a uniform
gray tjnt. We cm lliu* readily and accu
rately meature one-thousand of a econd.
! With the above apparatu* Arago, about
the year KS6, first showed that a flash of
I lightning !a*ted lea* than one-thouta idth
of a tecond; but did not succeed in Using
the minimum limit to it* duration, Pro
fessor Rood, however, wat more fortunate ;
during the well remembered remarkable
; display of lightning in August, ICJ9. with
an apparwtu* similar to the above {extern
porued from a piece of pa*teboard and a
-bawl-pin), he succeeded in measuring one
live-hundredth of a second a* the duration
of those vivid and extensive flashes.
It w as soon found that the velocity of the
revolving disk fill far behind that of the
• park of the Ley den jar, for it* flash show
ed the revolving radial bars as absolutely
at rest a* when the disk was stationary.
Hut Prof. Wbealstune, of London, in 1814,
substituted for the revolving disk a mirror
turning <>n a horizontal axis, and instead of
; the white point or bars be used the image
of the spark reflected from the turning mir
ror. If the spark be insUnUueous, then
, will it appear in the rotating mirror just as
it it seen when reflected from the mirror at ]
rest; but if the spark last during even an
extremely minute fraction of • second, it
will appear drawn into a line in the direc
tion in which the mirror turn*. Wheat
' stone thus measured the enc-million-one
hundred-and-fifty-thousandth of a second,
and ascertained that the electricity from a
| Leyden jar foes over a copper wire at the
. rate of '288,000 miles in a second, exceeding
; light itself in velocity.
Prof. Rood combined the two methods
above given by viewing the appearance of
stationary parallel and equidistant white
and black bands reflected from the rovolv-|
, ing mirror while the flash of the Leyden
jar illuminated them. The direction of ro
tation of the mirror being across the length
of the bands (which were only sixteen
thousandths of an inch apart), if the flash
lasting during the time for the turning
mirror to reflect a black band into the ad
jacent white spare, then the bands would
entirely disappear, and the plate on which
they were drawn would appear of a uni
form gray tint. By knowing the number
of turns the mirnx makes in a second, nnd
the number of bands in the space of one
inch, it is easy to calculate tho time neces
sary for the obliteration of the bands. Thus
.has he produced, by this simple oombina'
lion, an instrument surpassing in minute
ness and accuracy of determination all that
, has gone before—an accomplishment
which cannot but reflect much renown up
on American science. He hat succeeded
(with a mirror making three hundred and
fifty turns in a second) in measuring accu
rately forty billionths of a second, and
j ha* shown that this is the duration of the
flash of a Leyden jar having only eleven
square inches of surface aud one-twenty
fifth of an inch striking distance—an inter
. val of time just sufficient for a ray of light
(g°ing at the rate of one hundred and
ninety thousand miles in a second) to trav
el over forty feet. The flash from a jar
, having one hundred and fourteen square
inches of surface lasted four times as long
as the smaller jar. Thus, for the range of
eiectric flashes wc have measures from the
one-flve-hundr.-dth to tho forty-billionth
1 of a second
Astonishing an it tho fact of tbe concen
tration of the power of a lightning-flash
into such a minute interval, yet, as won
derful is the extent of the earth * surface
affected by it, as will be seen from the fol
lowing experiments of tho writer, never
before published A galvanometer con
sist* of u delicately suspended magnetic
needle surrounded by a coll of copper
wire, through which a current of electrici
ty can pass, whenever this passage takes
place, the needle rapidly turn* around iu
point of suspension. This being under
stood, I connected tho wircofa galvanom
eter with the water-pipes of Baltimore, and
the other end of the coil was joined to a
gas-pipe of a house in tho southwest pnrt
of the city. Thus a vast metnlic system of
electric nerves stictchcd away three miles
to tho northwest, to the reservoir, and
about as many to tbe eart and southeast
over the city. A thunderstorm was raging
at the time at so great a distance in the
north that only the illumination of the
clouds told when n flash occurred. Yet,
whenever that flash took place, the needle
was instantly deflected through ten or
twenty degrees. The two occurrences
were simultaneous, apparently, for I could
detect no difference in the instant of their
manifestation. Indeed, so sure an indica
tor of the flash was the galvanometer, that
when I shut myself up in a dark room,
signaling to an observer of the storm when
ever the needle moved, and receiving a
signal from him when a flash occurred, our
signals were always simultaneous. The
next day it was ascertained that the storm
was over twelve miles distant; therefore
at least five hundred xquarg miles of the
earth's surface were affected (inductively)
at each flash of the lightning.— Kvtnini/

Mr. Greeley has disappointed you. lit:
what respect, pray ?
Mr. NN eiitworth then made thefol-j
owing statement, which we give ver-j
baton, retrenching any vigorous re
duudancie* belter suited fur the col*,
until* of the .S umluy Timet than for
our purer pajter:
**A few days ago Mr. Greeley came
lo this city, and was met at breakfast
by myself aud Gnunell. We paid
for that hoary luuatie'soil-cake—milk
toast, 1 mean. His back-hire didn't
cost liiui a cent, and we thought our
selves reimbursed by bis words of wis
dom on the crisis ami the crop*. I
shall allude by-and-by to bis political'
ravings; just now 1 only refer to the
farmiug phase of hi insanity. I sat
at that man's fret like Paul at the feet
of Gamaliel. I acted ou hi* theories,
aud in one short week I was a ruined
man. You ask me, how so ?Go aud:
look at Summit Farm, it looks like
the alkaline desert —a bowling wilder
ness dotted with skeletons! "Greeley," j
said 1, "what do you think of mv me
rino sheep?" (I have—that is, I had
about two buudred of them, worth
$1 75 apiece.) "Merino," said Greclev
uiildiy, why the devil don't you cuf- j
livate silk bearing sheep Merino is
played out. I have tried thousands
of limes to get my sheep to produce 1
merino under-clothing; I have tried I
irrigating, mulching, top-dressiug.
subsoil ploughing, wood ashes, muck,
loam, guano—all was of no avail. 1
They will lay nothing but raw wool.
Now, raw wool costs 30 cents a pound, j
aud then lo this you add interest,
waste, insurance, manufacturing, bad
debts, etc., vou sec that vou cannot
wear with the pauper nation of Eu
rope. On the other hand, silk is heavi
ly protected, and the production lhi;
year is limited. In Assam the
CROP HAS PROVED A FAiLCRE OWING
TO THE FROST, AND
the harvest will not yield more than
thirty bushels to the acre. Silk, will
therefore, advance in price. Iu 1832,
you could buy a woolen dres* for,
$3 50. In 18*1, a silk dross costs
S3OO. It stands to reason, therefore,,
that by making your sheep spawn silk
vou will make 83 5-7 times more profit.
1 was thunderstruck with this, aud could
only summer 'How ?' The hoary head- j
ed monster answered: 4 By grafting.,
of course. Those sheep can spin co
coons like silkworms if they only give
their minds to it, aud the mm who de
nies it is a liar and a horse thief. Lit
tle sheep that can spin and won't
spin must be made to spin. The fact
is. Il'entwortb, you overfeed your
sheep, and they never feel the spur of
necessity. Vary their diet, give them
no vegetable food, give them say a
peck of silk worms a day, mixed with
coloring matter, as cochineal, madder
indigo, or lampblack, according to the
hue of silk which vmi want to w ear.
Food makes blood, blood makes life,
and how can a merino sheep produce
wool without life? how have lifr with
out food ? What are worms but food ?
Sir, I was convinced of the correctness
of the views held by the slovenly acoun-i
drel. I went to Summit, and to sum
it up I locked those devoted sheep up,
in a barn, gave them two hundred
pecks, of silkworms which cost me 160
a neck, and went away for a drive with
Charley Farewell, my old friend, tell
ing my farmer not to let the sheep
out on any accouut. Political matters
kept mv mind so occupied for
'several days that I forgot all about thej
sheep, until yesterday, wben what I {
bad done flashed across my mind. I
mounted my horse and spurred him
like the wind to my farm, but I was!
too late. When I got there, the cup-,
board was hare. I'll be d —d, if the
sheep hadn't all died, and the worms
had kept them company, and I was
147,000 out on the transaction. H—l
ofa lot the venerable murderer knows
about farming! Farm, the devil's
grandmother!'

Appended wa give a partial list of
thieveries of Hudical officials, and com
mend it (lie cartful consideration of
every lnx|nyer in the land, who i
compelled to give a purl of hi* earn

robberies. t)t course, this only iu

that have been committed, and W'e

to our recollection. The Ji*t may be
; indefinitely ended and the sum total
of defalcation* and open robln-rics
would reach a hundred million before
itlie end of Hadical official corruption
would be reached.
I Hie Hudical press makes Nt great

sufficient of themselves to array the
I people against the Hadical leaders,
who have connived and assisted in
! them and now protect the piuuderers:
1. I'll -re was stolen by Revenue Col

d ial statement to Congress, the sum of
$"20,700,78:1.3*1. Not one of these de
faulters has beet prosecuted or called:
to account.
2: The government vessel, "Golden

How TO BEK DOWN A WELL —It
is not generally known, savs the Lan
caster (Pa.) Intelligencer, how easy a
! matter it i* to explore the bottom of a
J well, cistern, or pond of water hv the
use of a common mirror. Whcu the
uu is shining brightly hold a mirror
no that the reflected rays of light will
fall into the water. A bright spot
* will l>e seen at the !>ottom, mi light ns
to show the smallest object plainly.
i By this means wc have examined the
liottoins of well# fifty feet deep, when
half full or more of water. The
smallest straw or other objects can he
perfectly seen from the surface. In
the same way one can examine the
lK>tU m of the ponds aud rivers, if the
water* be somewhat clear and not ngi
tated hv winds or rapid motion. If a
well or cistern can be under cover, or
j shaded by a building so that the sun
light will not fall near the opening, it
:is only neccaoary to employ two niir
jrors, using one to reflect the light to
I the opening, and another to reflect it
down into the water. Light may he
thrown fifty or a hundred yards to the
precise spot desirable, and then dowu-
I ward.

that he would throw over his head a

low, more imprudent, caused himself
to be hoisted up from the ground to a
window by means of a rope, which be
held in bis teeth. When he reached
a certain height he lost his four inci

fall. Some others, says the Doctor,
find pleasure in grinding drinking
glasses 1m tweets their teeth, and wound
ing their mouths grievously by the at

life of these maniacs is a uer;ietual
challenge to the Almighty who gave
