Washington that a bill will be introduced in the next Congress, authorizing the govern ment to issue $1 (i^,000,000 of twenfy- j ear throe per cent, bonds to purchase the telegraph plants in the country, 89tiJO00,000 to buy the Western Union, and ff,000,000 for the others. The Louisville 1‘oxt suinmarizes Governor 'Blackburn's administration thus: U.e was borne into oflicc by a wave Vf sentiinentalisu'i, and senti mentalism has been the characteristic featnre of his term of oflicc. Ho is a man of undoubted honesty, but he has continually allowed his sensibilities to run’away with his judgment. mouth not exceeding Ah Inch at many . places. The drought was disastrous to crops in New England and New | York, while intone part of Pennsyf- vania ♦he period was said to have beeh the driest, probably, in eighty years. John Roach, the great shipbuilder, who has been a tramp and started life w* the lowest round of the ladder, puts down gunning as'onc of the diversions in which he has known Iris workmen to Ukc an intemperate pleasure, and this undue zeal in sports ho notes among them as a sign of sure failure in life, very much in the same way that men usually regard drinking or gambltlig. The progress of Ncw*Vork is a mai*- Vel. In 1771 die population of the ’Hity was ahittle'oVdr 21,066; and ‘ih 178G, three years after the close of the , Revolutionary war, had 23,6l4in habf tants. The several ceifsuseh taken during the past 100 years exhibit the marvelously rapid strides which New York bus made toward her present imperial position. In 1790, ^however, the population was Hftie more than it was in 1771; but by 1800 it had risen tof^VilS. The remaining censuses are thus given: 618; 1820, 1830, 202,689 ; ^ 183.% 270,089; 184tV, 312,710; 1846, 371,223; I860, 615,647; 1865, 629,906; I860, 813,609; 1865, 72(5,384; 1870, 942,292; 1875, 1,041,- 880; and 1880, 1,206,299. On only two o'ceftoions has the VtannWation shown a decrease from the figures of the preceding census. The first time was after the war of 1812, and the sec ond after the oVvil WAV'.

He had always been temperate himself, believed in temperance and was trying to run a temperance society of his own. He believed in elevating and purifying society, but Iowa fanatics could not do it by setting jack&rew* under the four corners of the world. He said that Indiana had had all the experience necessary in temperance matters some twenty-five yVnrs ago, and the law, while in force, was evaded in every possible way and did no good; u'ars. In other words, the New York of to-day is sixty-four times as large as the New York of one hundred years i ago. The rate of increase in the coun try at large is insignificant beside that of the metropolis. In one hundred years the population of the United States has multiplied itself by sixteen; but the population ef &ew York has increased at four times that rate. At the rale of increase shown by the last twenty-five years alone—it rate dimin ished by the decline of American com merce Xnd the influence of the civil war—there are children now nursing who will behold a New York city con taining ho lesi than 10,000,000 inhabi tants.

Ciiari.ottk Journal-Observer: Ex- Scnator McDonald, of Indiana, is on the stump in Iowa. Last Wednesday night, in his speech at Dcs Moines, he denounced the tarifl’ Acts of the last Congress as a measure opposed to tariff reform and as still further pro tecting tht* protected industries, and announced himself as in favor of only such a revenue tarifl' as would give protection as a tarifl' for revenue alone would unavoidably jiivv. As Senator McDonald is prominently mentioned ns a candidate for the Presidency his views on this qnestiou are important. He here places himself as near as he possibly could on a free trade platform and takes square issue with the Democ racy of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania', Virginia and North Carolina, which all favor a tarifl' with incidental pro- tfcctkftf. The New York Herald speaks kind ly of Democratic prospects in the Presidential campaign. It says: “Close observers of political currents and movements remark that tlmr* are this year more proofs of design and of a definite purpose and policy in the Democratic party than have been evi dent for many years past. There are. of course, ’hr usual number of faction fights; hut outside of these, which are in this State of small consequence, and elsewhere of no real importance to the party’s success next year, there is no ticeable a general tendency of thought and purpose in a direction not alto gether unwise: and the recent move ments in the' Democratic party are of such a character as to convince shrewd Republican observers that their party can scarcely hope to succeed next year. This is the general conviction of competent Republican observers. Tliese hope still that the Democrats will blunder, and they believe thev O itorNn to Pulp Under a Train.— Mr. Bob Ashford, the trestle master of the Carolina Central Railroad, HHile walking the track a short distance fiom Polkton on Friday monlitnr* came ution the mangled remains of a negro man whose name was afterwards discovered to be George Williams, and who had been run over an.1 killed by the train that left Charlotte the previ ous night for Wilmington. The body was shockingly cut up by the car wheels, being ground to pulp, but not scattered along the track as is id mil in such eases. Mr. Ashford, on finding the body* walked on to Polkton depot and gave information of the discovery, when a crowd at onfce flocked to the spot. The coroner was sent for to hold an inquest, but up to the time of the departure of the Charlotte-bound local freight, ho had not arrived.'

During the same period the precipitation had beer,‘except near flic lakes deficient generally in the Middle States and in New York it had lieon less than one-half of * the normal amount. A very remarkable fact, partly explaining this nnnsnai aridity, is that at some ports of the Middle At lantic seaboard the prevailing wind during Angust was the northeasterly. The preponderating wind in summer for the Middle Slates is tho humid sooth wester; and wlien it is reversed In' the northeast winds coming fhom the dry, cooler latitudes, the supply of moistnre for rain-making purposes is loadeqnate.
