THE CAMPAIGN. BP81WEBS WOTICBS. LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS. loss of Pennsylvania in October will be a blow at the Administration from which it cannot even hope to recover. Where bo much is at stake, the Administration will make desperate efforts for suscess.

We believe the State to be closer tuan many Liberal leaders are disposed to concede, but we have no doubt that it will be carried against Grant, and the way opened for a complete victory in November. In order to attain this each i iece is thoroughly polished and then thoroughly boiled in a strong solution of potarh and rinsed in clean cold watt be ore going into the bath of silver, in which it ren aini a sufficient length of time to obtain the coating required, and is again thoroughly cleansed. Another polisher" gets It next, and by of a revolving brush of copper wire takes ofT the heavy white appearance which the silver bath leaves, except In the interstices of the engraved or ehased parts. THE "bUBNISBEB" handles It next, and with a steel instrument about an eighth of an inch In thickness, shaped somewhat like ten will In itself be an indiscretion that had better be nipped In the bud. Appropos of that and of other rather perf orced things, the Herald, a well wisher to the Liberal cause to day, Bays with a good deal sense: The contest ia likely to be very close.

It will certainly be vigorously fought to the last hour by the Administration, and the fact must not be overlooked that the BepubHffans will have in their hands the control of the election machinery in this oity, and nearly aU over the Union. Then, again, the Bepublican majorities In a large number of Presidential election, were tremendouslv heavy, and will be hard to overcome. The list of "some of the strongest Grant States la a formidable one In Iowa, forty six thousand; in Kansas, seventeen thousand; In Maine, twenty eight thonsand; In Massachusetts, seventy eeyen thousand; to Miohigan, thirty one thousand; in Minnesota, ftftaen thousand In Missouri, twenty.nve thousand in New Hampshire, seven thonsand in Ohio, forty one thousand in Pennsylvania, twenty nlne thousand In South Carolina, Seventeen thousand; lit Tennessee, thirty thousand; in Vermont, thlrtyplwo thousand; la Wisconsin, twenty four thonsand. These are the solid bulwarks yet to be demolished by the Liberal Reform batteries, and we can conceive of nothing powerful enough to break them down short of a tidal wave such as that whioh swept the old Tammany organization oat of existence last November. Hence, we oountel Mr.

Greeley to leave off chopping unnecessary wood, eating indigestible olams and taking fatiguing Journeys, and to give the benefit of his brains to those who are conducting his campaign. We counsel his friends, advisers and committeemen to discontinue cannon firing, bombastk) bulletins and Gambetta addresses congratulatory of imaginary vie. tories, and to set earnestly and vigorously about the substantial work of the eleotion. They may inline that the popular tide runs with the white hatted, heavy booted farmer of Chappaqua, bat If they would not have It ebb before the port is reached they must bend to their oars with a will. Now the sooner this advice is taken the bettor.

roll called. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved, after which quits a number of names were added to the roll. Mr. James Sloan said that as there were so many meetings being held in the vicinity, he was both sw priced and pleased to see so many present. Mr.

Geoge Birdie said he felt proud of being a Democrat he had been one for over twelve years, and ha fo'ttbit the work they had undertaken to do could would, and Bhould be done. If tbe men only stuck to! gother, no matter whether North Carolina was hushed up or not. He thought the junction of the Conservatives with the Democrat) was a magnificent thing for the country, and the two parties, when once united woHld be the ruest democracy that had ever been in existence He wanted to know If it was any fault for Horaee Gree' ley to have signed his llama for $100,000 to bail out Jeff. Davis. It certainly wa not; he did it as a matter of sympathy, and that sympathy came from his heart.

They talk, of Horace Greeley's age We want a man of age and stamina, and one who has some discretion. 0 HOBAOB GBZELBY ia HONEST his record shows it, and no one can prove it to the contrary. Under Grant there was lyin5, thievlne and we, the Greeley men, are So put It down by sending him into the PresfdenHal chair. I thought we had North Carolina, but the reraiara ni that we haven't. Granted jus! for the safertlrlo.1 ment; but if North Carolina i9 any criterion of what the Presidential eleotion Is to be, the Grant nartv irtU goaohhjhthattheyTl never coie down again.

A The 'chairman stated that the Club had received ninety eight members. The Secretary then read a call from the Greeley and Brown Cenlral Club, ask nVaU the clubs to send three delegates to repreieit the wbo oiatlonin that tody, and the Chairman toe pleasure of the meeting about it, and after some Utile the matter over until the next meeting, until come idea of what that body wan formed for, could be obtained. It was suggesteS SEJOT hrli hla nriShU at "if next JZ d0 something toward raising a Greeley and Erown banner. Mr. Redden suggested constitution and by laws.

It was moved that the Ohalr man appoint the committee. The Chairman appoint ed Mr Redden, Mr. Slocum and Mr. Dl'lon, as that SJS55.fl? motion Messrs. George Birdie and Vice President William McCaffrey were added to that committee.

It waB moved and seconded, that the meeting adjourn until next Thursday evening. 1 with who, knowing exactly what he has to do to make his bid the loweBt, offers to take the work at say $9,999.99. Now, it requires a geod deal more faith in human nature than a Presidential canvass develops to resist the suspicion that in such an operation ae this "a job" is distinctly outlined. Just such an operation has been perfeoted in regard to the Twenty third Regiment Armory by a committee of the Supervisors and the Board has approved it. A contract for the whole work has been made with a bidder for a part of it under the original specifications, and he agrees to do it under the revision for $99,997 just three dollars less than the appropriation, $100,000.

No now bids were called for. It does not appear but that somebody would have done the work according to the amended plans for one third less than the contract price agreed upon. At all events somebody should have had a ohance to offer so to doit. This evasion of the contract law is its substantial nullification. The facts Bhow that under the contraot system indirection is quite possible, and can only be prevented by a faithful enforcement of the law.

The Supervisor at Large was elected to assure that enforcement. His office was created that such cases might be looked after. He doubtless will look after this one. Let him put a stop to the nullification of the contract law by putting a stop to the armory contract. Mr.

Dwigbt ToBpsend. This gentleman, at present a member of Congress from the First District Suffolk, Richmond and Queens Counties will not, we are authorized to say, be a candidate re election. Mr. Townsend has been in Congress twice. He first served out a short term cre FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 9.

Xbia Paper hsa tlie Lars eat Circulation of any Evening Paper Published In tne VTnlted States. Its Valne as an Advertising; Medium Is therefore apparent Tne Prospect in tne States Next in Order The alleged discovery of frauds, perpetrated by Grant's supporters, in North Carolina, will attract public attention to that State for some time to come. Ab it ib, the Liberal Republicans are justified in rejoicing oyer a substantial victory, which they hardly hoped to win, while the leaders of the Administration party are doing their best to assure their followers that escape from a complete overthrow was all they expected in the opening contest of the Presidential year. Whether or not the returns which elected the Badical candidate for Governor in North Carolina were withheld a week, or until it was seen "what majority "was wanted," North Carolina has fortunately the power, through her Conservative Legislature, of ascertaining to the satisfaction of her own people, and of punishing fraud, if fraud can be proven. If the Administration has suffered its henchmen in North Carolina to tamper with the ballot boxes, they admit in doing so that their game is a despsrate one.

Once convince the American people that there is a possibility of electing a President of the Republic through fraud, and they will meet the issue with such unanimity that no fraud can win. Turning from North Carolina, attention will be next directed to three States which hold their elections in August and September. First in order is "West Virginia, which holds its election on the 22nd inst. West Virginia, as a State, is the offspring of the policy of tha Reconstruction. Under the peculiar polioy on which reconstruction was based, West Virginia was counted on as a Radical State for a generation.

But though the efforts of liberal minded men, prosecuted long before a political union wa3 effected between them, the people of the South have got back, in a large measure, the right to manage their own affairs. In 1868 but twsnly flve thousand votes were cast in the new State of West Virginia, and as all who were not willing to Tote with the party which had organized the State were disfranchised, all the votes cast were for the Republican candidates. Since that time the whites, who were prohibited from taking any part in their govern ment, have been gradually enfranchised, and in 1870 the Democrats carried the State by a majority of over two thousand. Since that time enfranchisement has been made full and complete, and the State is now largely Conservative. The contest in the State is now of a very singular character.

For, we assume, the first time in our political history, an Admin ministration soliciting an endorsement from the people of the whole country, haB not ventured upon nominating any ticket whatever in a considerable State holding its election in advance of the Presidential contest. The Administration has given up the election in advance in West Virginia, and while its friends are denouncing coalitions elsewhere, they propose to make a coinbinatiou in West Virginia, underlying which it is not pretended there is any principle whatever. The following facts will explain the character of the contest in that State. In 1870 the Democrats elected John J. Jacobs Governor, over his Republican competitor, after a sharp contest.

This year Mr. Jacobs was a candidate for renomination. On a close vote, Jacobs was defeated in the Democratic Convention, its choice falling upon Johnson N. Camden. Jacobs and his friends claimed, as iB not unusual after a close struggle, that they were defeated through illegitimate influences, and Jacobs has since announced himself as tin Independent candidate.

It so happons that Mr. Camden is a man of wealth, while Jacobs is not, and as the influences which were alleged to control the nominating Convention were pecuniary, more or less sympathy was manifested for Jacobs in his defeat. The Grant party fearing to make a party issue, even with this evidence of disaffection in their favor, have chosen to let the election go by default, but the supporters of th Administration have received orders from Washington to vote for Jacobs. Hence there are two Democrats running for Governor and no Republican candidate. If the election wai of mere local significance.

Jacobs might be elected under the circumstances, but as it is reasonable certain that Jacobs, if elected, would be claimed as an administration candidate, we assume that the solid Conservative vote will be cast for Camden, while if there be any sincere Republicans in the State, they are likely to be so disgusted with the poltroonery of an Administration which fears to fight ts battle with its own candidates, that they will not vote at all. The desperate game resorted to by the Grantites in this State is further illustrated in the case of their candidate for Congress in the First District John J. Davis. Davis was elected as a Democrat in 1870, over a Republican candidate. He ib one of the most pronounced Democrats in the State, and claimed to be so much opposed to Republicanism that he was one of the few Democratic members of Congress who refused to give his support to the Liberal movem ent.

He went home and announced himself as a straight out Democratic candidate, stating that he was only less opposed to Greeley than to Grant. Nevertheless the Grant party have accepted him as their candidate, and we suppose are ready to claim his election as an endorsement of the Administration. It is hardly possible that the Grant tactics in this State can defeat the success of the Liberal candidates, and to do so in favor of straight out Demo ASK YOUR DRUGGIST COMPOUND EXTRACT.

Booker Among the Officers. THE ELEVENTH WARD LIBERAL CLCB Speeches of Mr. Geo. Birdie and Others. In North Carolina the Republican guns seem flring5one way, and the official returns with palpabl, frauds wiped out, another.

It is quite probable that the Liberals wHl yet make their exultation good. some of the counties the most peculiar frauds are dis covered. For instance, the Tribune, ax. old hand, In frauds, says "The vote of Halifax County (In another district) is officially returned as 5,307, of which 8,640 were given to the Administration oandi date." Now the population of Halifax County has un dergone no sudden increase. By tne census of 1870 it was 20,403.

The closest and most exciting elections, even at the North, in the most thickly settled districts, never draw out more than one vote to every five inhabitants. The vote of Connecticut, always holly contested, has never exceeded 109.009, though its population is aoout 540,000. The vote of New fork in 1668 was 849,000, while its population was 4,382,003, Allowing even this proportion to Halifax County, N. it could not possibly have oast over 4,100 legal votes. The extra 1,200 are palpably a clear, transparent, audacious cheat.

Yet this single case 1b almost sufficient to reverse the apparent majority in the whole State. In 1868 the aggregate vote of Halifax County was 4,304 In 18.0, 3,517 in 1871 it suddenly swell ed to within 200 of its present plethoric proportions, In connection with these dicclosures, what the Secre tary of State says with reference to the result is of in terest. He says that he is of the opinion that Caldwell' majority will not exceed 303, if he Is elected at all. In one precinct in Brunswick eighty more votes were cast than were registered. In Hauelt Township, New Hanover, one or two companicc, with arms, marched to the polls.

In the First Ward at Wilmington, and other precincts of that county, men registered after Sunday and on the day of election, Having Eadlcal County Commissioners, the votes of these precincts were, of course, not thrown out. There is no doubt of frauds in Columbus and Bladen. They are believed to be general throughout the Third Congressional Dis tnc, and, in fact, throughout the State. Ex.Jndg Jere. 8.

Lames and Oentlemes There are two New Hamp uuv wueiBHug ui uer juns ana rocss ana wooas, bright green ineadpws and sparkling streams; and the other, by far the more important and unique New Hampshire of the two, the men and women who claim her soil as their birthplace. More, New Hampshire people are again divided Into thoce who live on the soil and those who have congregated, who have sought otherpiaoea than their native land. I belong to the New Hampshire that traverses many lands and distant spots; out when the Fourth of July or Thanksgiving or Christmas Day comes, or any recurring anniversary that brings to mind recollections of old familiar hearths, I then recur with all the rest of that outer Mew Hampshire to the land of my ancestry, and I ask HOW ABE THE OLD POLKS AT HOME (Laughtir.) From distant landa everywhere, from California, Texas, Iowa; from the equator and frcm the other eldes of the globe, the other New Hampshire looks baok in mind to the rugged hills of our native State, smoother now than when we wrestled with their" rooks, and tried to wrest an aTl.tanna the granite beds. (Applause.) It has been said of me that I advise all young people to go West. True, to some extent I have, and do advise those who and existence so hard in the Eastern States, to turn to that Bettlntt sun where thev find so rannh fertile land, which, tickled with a plough, laughs such beauteous harvests but as to the people that now compose New Hampshire, there are none better fed, better clothed, or better taught, and on behalf of that outer (cheers) exnanslva.

But bis speaking too of Stores on "Washington Street. NEW "PHOTO ART" GA.LLERY a i 1 1 a cl I epot on Ninth Avenue. RECONSTRUCTED FRONTS. A Silver Plating Factory How the Work is Done. Among the local improvements reoentljr completed, or nearly bo, in tbla city, is the row of stores on Washington Btreet, extending from the Brooklyn Theatre to Johnson Btreet.

These stores are six in number, but are so oonstruoted that they can be converted into a Bingle store by removing the partitions, with a continuous front of doors and windows tbe entire length. The building is three stories in height, of brick, with light etone trimmings, and the upper stories are supported in front by iron pillars and gri ders. A single doorway on Washington street leads to the upper floors, which are intended for law and other offices. The stores are not largo, but present an attractive front. They will be ready for ocoupanoy in September, and will be used for light retail busiuess purposes.

The erection of these stores is an indication of the tendency of business to find another channel leading toward Fulton Ferry, and when the East River Bridge is finished, to the business centre of New York. Within the past five years property oa this street has increased sonsiderably in value. The proposition to widen it, In anticipation of the oomploiion of the bridge will probably be brought before the Legislature at its next session. A FINE BALL BOOM. Another improvement has been made in property on Washington Btreet.

Mr. A. B. Samuells has removed the billiard tables from his upper floor, and converted it into a ball room and concert hall. It is to be known as Assembly Hall, and will be one of the finest and meet capacious halls in the oity.

A NEW ABI GALLEBY. The building No. 298 Fulton street has reoentiy been reconstructed, and now presents a very attractive appearance. The first floor is occupied by D. Mundell as a boot and shoe store.

Tbe second and third floors have been fitted up aa a photographio art gallery, by Mr. Frank E. Peaiuull, who has removed his business from Hilary Btreet. This new establishment was opened for Inspection Wednesday was visited by a large number of perBona. The reception and picture room is 22x60 feet, and is very handsomely fitted up, and the oamera gallery is provided with the moBt approved Instrument! and appurtenances.

There are also ladies' and toilet rooms, a private office for the proprietor, artists' rooms, framing, silvering, washing and other rooms. The principal rooms are handsomely frescoed and carpeted, and furnished with black walnut furniture. Everything about the establishment presents a neat, attractive appearance. Among the pictures which attracted attention may be mentioned those of Mr. Greeley, Hon.

Thomas Kinsella, Bev. Messrs. Pentecost, Cuyler and Hoyt, Mr. Wm. O.

Mrs. Duryea and Counsellor DoWUt, aU In black crayon Miss Minnie Conway, onlldren 0 Mr. W. E. Bobinson and of Mr.

Wilcox, Messrs. A. A. Pearsall, Murdock, Parker, Wells, Eendan and Cars ton. Throughout the entire eveniej there was a go jd number of visitors, coming and going.

The now establishment elicited many remarks of commends tion. NEW STORE TBONTS. The store building on the southwest corner of Fulton and Mlddagh stieets has recently been greatly improved by the owner causing the old fashioned doom's and wiadowB to be removed and modern plate glass and black walnut substituted therefor. The buildicj comprises two stores, No. 152 being occupied by Hall Blair as a cigar store, and No.

The Park avenue Bailroad is that line of oars whioh starting at Falton Ferry, passes thence along Park and Vanderbilt avenues, across the Plaia and alongside tho Park, to the boundary line of (treenwood Cemetery, on Ninth avenue.

The Company, of which Mr. Andrew B. Culver ia President, is a new one, and tho majority of their cars are one horse. They are painted green, and are furnished with boxes, into which pascengeis are respectfully requested to deposit a five cent piece on entering the car, thus relieving the Btookholders from any anxie they might otherwise feel on the subject of "knocVag down." As travel increases it is the intention of the company to operate their road with the regular regulation style of two horse cars, and those they have already purohascd, are turned out on Sundays aud holidays; or whenever oiraumBtonoes, meaning passengers, justify them in incurring the additional expenditure of conductors' wages, and the extra wear and tear of horseflesh. In connection with the Crosstown Road it affords to the people of tho Eastern District a very convenient mode of access to the Park, and on that account w.U no doubt always do a paying business and something more.

That the directors have great confidence in the future in shown by the enterprise they have evinced during the last few months, in making preparations to accommodate tho thousands of patrons from whom they anticipate collecting fares in the "good Mae coming." At the Ninth avenue terminus of the road a large depot is now almost completed. Before the first of October the finishing touches will have been put on. It occupies the entire blook on the south Bide of Ninth ave nue, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, and is two stories in height, exclusive of the basement. At each end of the build' og, faoing en the avenue, is a tower thtiy aaven fee; square, and fllty feet in height to the top of tbe cornice. It is built of brick, with brown stone trimmings and facings, and the front is faced Col'ahagh brick.

The lensth of the building on Ninth avenue is two hundred feet, and the depth on Nineteenth and Twentieth streets one hundred feet. It has been built under the superintendence of Mr. G. L. Moreo, tbe architect, and will comprise a car housA, stables, repair shop, and etore roojis for feed, together with the ucccsBory offices and waitin rooms.

In the basement damaged cars and broken harness will be repaired, and alongside of the workers in wood and leather black emiths will be employed shoeing horses, and whatever space may be loft unappropriated by them Is to be used for general storage purposes. On the flKt floor, fconting on Ninth avenue, will be the offices of the Company, waliingrooms for passen gers, and also sitting or wailingi ooms for the drivers and conductors. ThiB portion of the bulding has been so arranged that passengers will not be compeUed to wade through the mud and Blush during wet and winter weather in order to get aboard a oar, as on arriving at ihe depot every oar will be driven under cover, close to the waltfngroom, and remain there until the starter's bell rings. The portion of the first floor in the rear of the offlceB and waltingrooms is to be used ao a oarhouse. From one corner, broad inclined plane fifty feet in length, gives sccess to the second floor where the horses will bo stabled, and their supplies of hay and feed stored.

Every precaution has been taken to make the building as substantial as possible, and a consider able amount of taste and skill has been exerolsed to make its appearance attractive, The slcbles will be provided with a turreted ventilator 110 feet in length by twenty in width, all the windows of which oan, by means of cogwheel attachments, be olosed or opened simultaneously, and there will also be an elevator for hoisting feed and other bulky articles to she second slory. SILTEB PLATING. It Is an old and a trite saying that one half of the people have no idea how the other half lire, and it is equally trite, though not so old perhaps, that the greatest part of the world haven't the least idea how the articles they use in every day life are made. We get so used to going to bed and getting up, and seoiai the living tools in use about us that they bcoome ooin mon things to our sight, and we seldom stop to think whence they come or how they are manufactured. TAEE A TEAPOT, FOB INSTANCE, a common silver plated or Britannia teapot.

It is ono of the commonest of artiolos In dally use, and yet how many of the readers of the Eagle havo the least idea how one of them is manufactured 1 It ti the purpose of this article, iu a brief manner, and as intelligibly 1 pcssible. to tell this. Standing upon the Front street, aud running clear through from Pearl to Adams street, in thts city, is a large brick building, whioh has the appearance of an armory, upon the outside, at first glance. The building is ocouiied by the Broonlyn Brass and Copper Company, and the Webster Manufacturing Company, engaged in tho making of all manner of Bllvor plated ware in common use, from a "silver oup," fo tho baby, to a MASSrVE WAITEB FOB THE WARD POLITICIAN. This last named company generally have al work about one hundred hands, both malo and female, with a predominance of formerj and do an average business of $175,000.

The process by whioh silver plated goods are made is rather curious one, and quite different from any the uninitiated would be led to suppose. Let us follow the process of making a tea pot, for Instance: A FLAT PIECE OF BB1TANNIA which is the basis for most plated goods circular In form, and about the Btze of a common dinner plato is fastcnod'upon a lathe next a wooden form or mold, and the lathe' is set in motion. The workman with the requisite tools presses upon this revolving disc and Bhapes it over the wooden block, giving it the requisite form. The body of the tea pot is thUB "turned off" in a moment or two. Tho top Is turned In the same way, also the lid, and at the proper time they are put together.

THE "HANDLES," and whatever other ornaments of a solid nature which are to be added, are generally oast in moulds and are fastened upon tbe pots by workmen skilled in that Une. If tbe pot is to be engraved or chased is will be necessary to hammer upon itB surface, and, as the metal Ib soft and yielding, the pot must be made in some way solid. ThiB is done by FILLING THE VESSEL WITH HOT PITCH and allowing it to cool, when the whole mass is aa flint almost, and will bear any amount of banging. The engraving and chasing finished, the pot is hung upside down on the top of the tank of pitch, and the heat soon empties It of its contents. It is then placed In solutions of turpentine and soda respectively and aU traces of tbe pitob are removed.

From here it goes to the polishing, and then to THE BATH BOOM," where the Bllver Ib added to the eurf ace. The great roquisito in silver plating is a clear and smooth surface. Without this the work would be very unsatisfactory. Surgical Grafting The other day in the quietest comers of the quietest papers appeared a very quiet statement. It was in effect that a surgeon in Bellevue Hospital had quietly taken off a patient's leg and attached to the stump the leg of another patient who had almost simultaneously undergone amputation.

It was also stated the grafting was an entire success, and that the first patient has been discharged cured. Now, it has been known for a long time that damaged lips, noses, and cheeks have been successfully repaired by this species of surgical cobblery. But it haa generally been supposed that one's own body was put under contribution to supplement the deficiencies, or at least to supply the raw material. A man who will give up all that he hath for his life, will cheerfully spare a piece of his calf or forearm to perfect an injured nostril, or to reconstruct a mutilated mouth. Indeed, on the Shakspearean principle, of which the Republican Grant men are rabid refutations, that when the brain is out the man will die, strips of cuticle have been frequently taken from the shoulder and attached to a fractured poll, to form a new scalp.

The experiment has nearly always been successful, and a man has thus been made to help himself in a way that is wonderful. This grafting, to the extent just indicated, has even been made from the bodies of others, and there is nothing to show that by a judicious policy of this kind one man might not be substantially transferred to another, without violating the letter or spirit of the 13th amendment. The consent of the cut ap party has not always been easy to procure, but your ether or chloroform is a great victor over the theological absurdity of contrary choice," and the Ku Klux law, undoubtedly, if made applicable to hospitals, will enable surgeons to supplement one man with part of aaother, whether he will or not There is no record to show that the man who lost a leg which the other gained, objected to the sacrifice. There is small reason to presume that his consent was asked at all. It would have been unreasonable to object.

The improved patient was suffering from a disease that required the loss of the leg to save life. One sound leg still remained. The man off of whom the transferred leg was taken had still a sound one left. So they were both even, and made a pair. Of course, the patientthat lost the diseased leg needed a sound one.

Equally, of course, the man who lost the sound leg didn't have any more use for it. What more natural than to dovetail it on to the repaired patient. If the abbreviated being objects, all has to do is cut off another person's leg and confiscate" it. We can see nothing unjust in thie. One leg beyond recovery was exchanged for a second one which could be of "no use to the owner" as advertisements some times say that is after excision.

Nor is the story of "rapid" articulation and an exquisite junction of the arteries beyond belief. The lay reader knows nothing about surgery. He hopes that practically he never will. Surgeons are eminent men worthy of belief. We pay them to take care of us, and it is our duly to believe them.

Any man undertaking to denounce this Bellevue feat as impossible, would be quickly invited to lose a leg of his own and submit the stump to the sympathetic grafting of another thereon. We venture to say that he would give in his adhesion to the statement before endeavoring in his person, or leg, to show that it couldn't be made good. Not only does the story come well authenticated, not only was the exchange perfectly just, as we have seen, but ther ako appears nothing antecedently improbable or improper about it. What more natural than the longing for another leg by a man who has lost his own What more disinterested and generous than for one man to endure amputation in order to reinforce a friend This is an age which has witnessed degrees of self sacrifice no other period can boast, at least no other period less given to boasting. It is all very well to talk about serving the public, of giving your life for the country, of devoting your best years to the cause, and all that sort of thing.

But to our mind tke man who had his leg cut off bo as to give it to a friend, has transcended all efforts ever made to ameliorate human distress. If he is a Republican, he is certainly the most Liberal Republican we know of, and as soon as he gets over his loss, he should take the stump for Mr. Greeley. Mr. Henry Wilson is very fond of declaiming his friendship for the soldiers.

Let him and his friends show their love by their legs. Let them each have one at least of their limbs cut off and give them for grafting to the one leg ged soldiers, who play hand organs under quiet peoples windows when they are trying to write editorials. That would be a sacrifice which the soldiers would appreciate, and on which the politicians so valorouB in peace could ask for the army vote. It is now seen what an insult it was for Congressmen to vote to the soldiers arti ficial limbs, which at best are cumbersome and chafing. They could have more generously voted to submit to personal and collec tive amputation for the benefit of these heroes, or they could at least have ordered the excision of an adequate number of disloyal Ku Klux legs to be grafted on to the soldiers who have suffered so much and who with their hand organs make people suffer so much more.

If it be advanced that the process of grafting would result in legs of different Bizes, the ready reply is that the ballet of the period pre sents to eyes aesthetic the same objections, and that they have been foind to be trifling and immaterial. They do nol diminish the popularity of the balht as a dramatic and lyri cal accessory. Beside, care could be taken in surgical selection and adjustment of bone tt) his bone. All exceptions on this score could be obviated, too, by simply amputating both legs and grafting on two of the same size to the improved patient. Apart from the symmetrical possibilities of this new departure in.

hu man carpentering, the sanitary claim atten tion. Mr. Weller accounted for Mr. Pick wick's speed by the fact that his heart had been born six aad thirty years after his body. It is just possible that Mr.

Pickwick, trunk aged fifty five, was, by surgioal science, the possessor of a pair of lively legs aged nineteen. There is nothing to show that that excel lent man in his numerous adventures hadn't ruined and then renewed his less. His run ning down the lane and his other pedestrian activities warrant the assumption. As a means ol lengthening life and making the old vounn. if not immortal, this idea of grafting on new legs is wormy or Benous attention.

Of course, too, the process is applicable to arms, and a surcease of sorawniness therein may be looked for, if the grafting process find general adoption. Nullifying the Contract Law. The other day we exposed a small imposi tion in the matter of awarding premiums for pians for public buildings. According to the frequent practice architects submit designs involving an expenditure beyond the appropriation. Of course their plans cannot be adopted, but instead of being thrown oat, as they should be, a premium is paid for them.

This is an insignificant matter compared with another practice, by which the law under which contracts are made is practically nulli fied. For example The Supervisors desire to put up new building, say an armory. They advertise for proposals for doing the work. In response to the advertisement A offers to do the carpenter work for a certain sum the mason work for a certain sum the iron work for a certain sum, and so on. When the several sums are added, it appears that they amount to say $15,000, while the appropriation for the whole building is only $10,000.

Of course, no contract can be made on such terms. The business is therefore sent back by the Supervisors to the committee to do what is called "revising the pians and specifications." Precisely what is contemplated by and included in this pro ceeding the public, not being in the confidence of the committee, cannot clearly ascertain, but the result of the operation is this The committee "reviseH" as aforesaid and without opening the revision to new bids, as is plainly the proper and only lawful method, rertorts that it has made a contract for the whole work a trowel but much smaller, by constant wuiga into ongntness the now dull looking body, burnishing suoh portions as are intended so to be acted npon.

Gabothee, August 7. The citizens of this beauliful little city, Greeley Republicans and Democrats, are holding their first campaign meeting here to night. The meciing was called to order by B. A. Neal, a life long Republican, of this city, and one of the recent accessions to the Liberal ranks, who presated the name of A.

C. Biilphen, of Farmingdale, a 1 imminent lawver and active Liberal Republican of tlat town, and in connection a long list of Vice Presidents and Secretaries, about half of whom were Liberal Republicans. Mr. Stilphen, on the position of presiding officer of the evening, very briefly bnt comprehensively slated his reasons for joining the cause of Greeley and Liberal Republicanism. I have always been a Republican; my first vote waB a Republican vote.

The only votes I have ever thrown bave been Republican votes. I was one of Grant's strongest adherents. He said he had no policy to force upon the country. I likod that. But, alas! Boon came Santo Domingo: soon was seen his hand stretched out over the United States Senate trying to control it, and Boon Charles Sumner was deposed from his nigh position.

He proved that he had a policy, and not only that, but a will of his own a selfish, obstinate will. I did not like to help undo all that the Republican party had contended for. and I said I would take no part in the coming campaign. But when Horace Greeley was nominated at Cincinnati upon a platform whose every principle I could heartily endorse, I said I would vole for him "it not another man did'! loud cheering and I now say God speed and weicome to any man who will come and aid in this true and just cause. Thank God for Democratic help.

Chears.j Tu nk God for peace; thank God for unity for thcze we are willing to work. Immense applause. Mr. Stilphen next paid a very happy tribute to ex Ssnator Doolittle and introduced him as the speaker of the evening. A most generous and enthusiastic welcome, which demonstrated itself in loud and continued applause, was accorded Mr, Doolittle upon his appearance on the platform.

He spoke for about two hours amid the most earnest attention and frequent applause. Incidents. Civil Service Beform has broken out in the Navy Yard in the Bhape of subscription papers being thrust at workingmen to defray the expenses of the campaign. A meeting of the Liberal Hepublicana of QuoenB County will be held at Jamaioa, L. on Wed nesday, August 21.

The coll Is signed by Sheriff Arm stead C. Henry, Justice Bernard Hendriokson, and other leading Republicans. Ex Governor Chamberlain, of Maine, now President of Bowdoin College, writes to say that his signature to the Grant and Wilson's Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention call was a forgery. He also says of the part of that call which praises Grant for not turning Dictator while in cemmand I think particularly unforlnnate, for instance, the suggestion that any man who ever lived could have led the armies of tho Union to lift hands againBt the liberties of the country they had so dearly defended." "President" Andrew D. White, of tho thing called Cornell University, thinks it defensible in a College President to be a rabid partisan.

President Chamberlain, of Bowdoin, thinks he, at leaBt, cannot come out in politics becomingly. There are other differences between White and Chamberlain desirable to tho latter. J. W. Forney is announced to go to tho Pacific coast next Monday, to be absent two months.

He don't mean to be on hand at the smash of Grant and Hartrcnft. Complaints are received, from many of the old03t subscribers of tho Tribune, says that paper, that Joseph E. Brush, Postmaster at Greenwich, is endeavoring to induce tiiem, as well as other Espubli cans, to cease taking the Triiiuns and to subscribe for some newspaper which supports the Administration. In a few cases he has succeeded, but the great majori ty insist on having the newspaper wh'ch they have been reading for years. Now, tho best way to deal with these superserviceable country Postmasters ia simply to slap them smartiy on tho side of the faco, or eiBe just kick tnem gently.

Twentieth Ward Democratic Liberal Club. An adjourned meeting of the Democrats and Liberal Republicans of the Twentieth Ward was held last evening at the Cumberland street chapel, for the purpose 01 penecting the organization of a Greeley and Brown Campaign Olub in the Twentieth Ward. There was a very large attendance of tbe representa tives or Doth parties, tne Liberal Republicans being represented by such men as Dr. Gay, Supervisor Har man, Hon. Wm, W.

Why do we do this Because wo all believe that our national institutions are IN DANGER andthatitisneceBBary that we should all join hands together to rave them from the impending ruin, Cheers.

addrAAA. TTa aI. luded to the curious mingling together of men who had been political enemies ail their lives, and the enthusiastic support which the Democratic party gave to Horaoe Greeley, who had been their consistent opponent for thirty years, and then went on to show that the reason pf all this forgetfulneas of former political feuds lay in the fact that all felt alike that the country was in danger pf a mmtarydeepetlsm should Grant be longor retained in newer. He snokn nf nf ornnl'a adminis tration, showing tht while he might have been an excellent soldier, be was a failure as a statesman, and In conclusion urged on all present to work from now till November to advance the eleotion of Greeley and Brown, After some further rnmva Air.

NORTH SECOND STREET. Report of Commissioners in tbe mat ter 01 Widening it 9414,720 Allowed on 560 Lots An Opportunity to Amend tbe Report. In the matter of improving and widening nortu acconn street and straightening the same, the Commissioners under whose direction the measure will be executed, Messrs.

Jame W. Rtos. Ja uob A. Brock and John A. Ferrall, have completed an! filed their report in the office of the County Clerk for pub lic examination.

Before making a final report they will meet to hear objections, if there be any, at the ouice of Corporation Counsel DeWitt, on the 16th Inst, at 2 o'clock P. prepared to make such amendments as may to deemed proper. This improvement covers a mile or more in extent, from the river to Bushwick avenue, and embraces a total of 560 lots, the absorption of which ranges from 0 few feet off each to one half, according to location. Iu some instances, at the intersection of North Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth streets with North 8econd street, gore lots will be taken almost as a whole, leav ing, in the majority of casos, little or nothing on which to build. Tho Same applies at the corner of Third street, on the southerly side of North Second street.

where an entire lot, with a throe Btory brlok dwelling falls within the now line of the street. Compared with property in adjacent wards, that lying wUhin the limits of the Fourteenth haB been adjudged at A DEPRECIATED VALUATION, consequently capitalists have avoided this Ward deeming cny investment made there as the reverse of lucrative. By reason of this impression the Fourteenth baB lasged bohind its sister Wards in the matter oi first clasB reoidencec, with a few exceptions, ond men, even to day, shun it as a plase of residence, though glad to avail themselves of its territory for factory purposes. A DLFFEEENT IMPEESSION, however, now prevails among certcln far seeing men, who rcAlize that the improvement of North S3C0nd street will inaugurate a new history in the Ward This is evident, if for no other reason, from the total amount of awards and tbe dissatisfaction expressed by many owners who complain, not of tbe tax oatailed, bnt of the low valuation put upon their land. There are still other INDICATIONS OF ADVANCEMENT lobe seen in oxtensive and ornamental brick tenements, put up within the year past, more especial'y at the lower end of the street, and within about five years lots are to day worth near double the amount they could be pnrohascd tor then.

From different causes more outlying wards like the Fifteenth have filled up rapidly, while the Fourteenth haB been at a atand still, comparatively yet it is never too late to correct a mistake, and ia hoped taat, now It has started in tho right direction, Fourteenth Ward property will be quite as tenable and bo aB eagerly songht for aB that of any other in the district. The fact is well known that, In the early history of the village of Williamsburgh, North Second street was its LEADING THOBO0QHFAEE, and for a time the principal means of connection be tween the outlying country and its numerous farms and the city. At that time Grand and other streets now foremost were little better than lanes, but have since outgrown thoir old rival and cast it entirely in the shade. This state of affairs has changed slightly for the better latterly, with an extension of the habita ble limits of tho contiguous district, and by the time this improvement shall have been completed it is pos sible, and highly probablo, that North Second street will regain its oldtime prestige, a measure at least, THE AWABDS, amounting in the aggregate to $414,270, are divided between 120 property owners, and range from (200 a lot upward according to tbe improvements thereon. There is no denying the fact that the duties of the Commissioners, in arriving at a correct valuation of property taken, have been onerous; and in some in stances the amounts awafded may not be as near equitable a3 might have been the caBe with a ull knowledge of every circumstance.

NOSTEAND AVENUE RAILROAD. Ail Argument in Favor of tbe Change of Bonte. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Yam article on the Lee avenue Railroad in Tuesday's Eagle, may be fully Justified so far aB it refers to the manner tx whioh the resolution in question waB carried thsoU5h the Common Cm noil. The action of the Mayor, however, having been determined upon after a carefui examination of the subjeot in all its bearings, shows that the resolution itceif is not so clearly objectionable as Its opponents elai n. I have no interest whatever in this railroad, and none in the Question of changing Its route, bevond that commou to all property owners in the contr portion of the Nineteenth Ward off the line of Lee avenue.

The truth i that the objection raised by tbe owners of property on Lee avenue has been urged against the contrucllon cf nearly every railroad la the city, and in no case with lesi reason than in this. For a distance of nit over six blocks, or from Taylor to Hewes etcset, the large number of houses are ocoupied by thilr owners, and are of a good class, but not more valuable than tuoo on the cioe.8 streets intersecting the sime line. The of these houses 1b a half mile distant from the ferry, and I am quite satisfied that all their owner. will be glad to avail themselves of the opportunity to use tho road when it ia onco constructed, and that the actual value and convenience of their property be enhanced by it. At present, however, they would greetly prefer to have It run through the net street, of I am at a loss, however, to see upon wuat ground they can insist Piat it should be priced in Marcy avenuo in preference to Lee avenue.

Grant, if you please, that property In Marcy avenue Ib less valuable, or that a larger part of the property is yet vacant. The property there is, or will be used, for the same purpose, and the injury, if there is any, resulting from a railroad in the street will be prcciccl the same, while tho owners, ai a clans, may be less able to sustain It. The road as at present run is not of the slightest use or convenience to the Nineteenth Ward. It runs around the southwestern corner of the ward upon tracks of olhar roads, which accommodate all the travel on their line, and makes a detour from its proper and direct course of about half a mile. Lee avenue is a direct continuation of avenue, ruuB through the centra of the ward, whioh has no road between Wythe avenue and Broadway.

andinterseoti a large district of unimproved lots, which only ncsd direct communication by this railroad to brla them Into use. I think it very cei tain that property in thVi ward will be improved at once by thli change far more than the cost of the entire road, and that much dreaded depreciation of Lee avenue property, even It the fears of its owners should be realized, will be trifling in comparison to the benefit to the whole ward. To make the proposed change through Hoopor street aad Marcy avenue would simply require that the rood be run a thousand or twelve hundred feet furthar and out of the reach of the thiokly settled neighborhood bo tween Lee and Bedford avenues, whoe inhabitants would be greatly accommodated by the direct line. Nineteenth Wabd. COMMISSIONERS OF CHARITIES.

This Board held a meeting Wednesday. There were present Commissioners Foren, Wills and Scott, Commissioner Soott was called to the Chair. Commissioner Wills offered the following Retailed, That the clerk be directed to notify the Bcvcral heads of Departments that no repairs or alterations are hereafter to be made or allowed in their respective departments without approval of the Committee on thebnlldlng where such repairs or alterations may be required, or upon application to be approved by the Board of Commissioners of Charities, unless such repairs and alterations can be made by employes in the department where they are needed, and without any additional expense to tbe oounty. It was adopted. Permission was given the following persons to take children out from the nursery: To Johanna Plambech of Bast New York, the children Paul and Bruno Blchiel, aged respectively 6 and 9 years; to Joseph Halser, of Brownsville, tiie child Ellen Johnson, aged 0 years.

The reports from tie variouB departments showed the number of inmates to be ae follows Almshouse. 58i; Hospital, 987; Asylum, 760; Nurjory, 418. Total, 2,150. The Board then adjourned for tiro weeks. ated by the resignation of Hen.

H. G. Sebbins, and was subsequently elected for the full term of the present House. He has been an active, courteous, faithful, intelligent Representative, peculiarly useful to the interests of his constituents, by his membership of the Committee of Commerce. Mr.

Town send's declination to "stand again" will deprive the new House of a very worthy and useful legislator, and it is a pity that imperative business interests compel him to take this resolution at a period, when the material needs of the nation are likely to receive an attention he is so competent to give to them. Still (bey Come. Mr. E. L.

Sanderson, formerly Chairman of the Republican General Committee of Kings County, and successively the candidate of that party for District Attorney, and member of the Legislature, to which he was chosen an original Radical, who cme into the party at its inception from the old Whig organization, and who haa always been among its most prominent counsellors and speakers, has declared himself opposed to the eleotion of General Grant and in favor of his defeat by Horaca Greeley. Mr. Sanderson, of course, as an old fashioned Republican, will discover more of the principles of that once superb organization in the record and position of Horace Greeley than in those of a dozen Grants. Thus one by one the really representative Republicans of Brooklyn, (as of the rest of the country), are coming out from the shadow of the officeholders and are ranging themselves with the people, by whose rights it was the boast of their organization once to stand in unbroken columns. When men as prominent in and honored by their party as Mr.

Sanderson was in the past, conclnde that it has lost its power to do good in the country, the spectacle is significant, and comducive to reflection in every reasonable mind. NEWS SUMMARY. The "Eastern Shore," where the bulk of the peach crop com? from is a long and irregular lined peniiiBiilar bounded by the Chesapeake and Delaware Baj and the Atlantic, Including the State of Delaware, the detached nose of Virginia, and the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The track is two hundred miles in length and from five to eighty miles in width, and is cloven by deep bays, fringed with islands, ond penetrated by broad, deep estuaries.

It has a canning establish ment which put up last year 40,000 cans per day 500 gins and 300 man were employed. This year Mr.

The New York Board of Aldermen yester dny adopted a resolution to ask the Central Park Com missioners to substitute a sacred concert from four to seven P. M. on Sundays in the place of one weekday concert given under their auspices.

The strife between the two sets of Polioe Commissioners in Jersey City has begun, the old Com missioners refusing to recognize the new, and refusing access to nooks, papers, o. Their manner is reported to be exceedingly courteous, but that appears to be the extent of their concession to the Governor's appointees. Prominent citizens sympathize with the newly appointed Commissioners, but the old ones are in possession and still seem to receive implicit obe dience from all subordinates in the Department, The headquarters and various Btation houses are reported to be closely guarded to prevent any surprises or captures. Cosuscormjouk, on the Bosphorus in Asia, haB been destroyed by fire, rendering 1,003 families of Greeks Bnd Jews homeless.

Commissioner Wayne has rendered a decision as to the rights of negroes to seats in the streot cars at Savannah, Oa. He decides that there is no law permitting any man to claim the right to ride In a particular oar in violation of the company's rules. He says railroad corporations have a right to put a passenger in any car they please so long as the con tract for transportation and accommodations purchas ed is luinues. at therefore discharged the white man who had been arrested for forcibly ejeoting the negro cumpiamant zrom tne car. It is now seriously stated that several young ladles will oppear In Central Park to morrow dressed in Bloomer costume and riding on horses as the other sex ao.

it is understood that if their conduct and appearance are entirely becoming and excite no disturbance, the Park Commissioners will make no obleotion. The frequent occurrence of robberies at NewBochelle, Greenwich, Stamford, NorwalS, and other points skirting Long Island Sound, within the past few months, haa excited an unusual degree of vigilance in the authorities. From a variety of trifliua but concurrent testimony, there is now Btrong circumstantial proof that portion of the crew of a United States vessel has been engaged in those depredations, for some months a steamer attached to the Boast Survey has been in service on the Sonnd, altering the location of buoys, taking soundings, etc, and by strange coincidence, several of these robberies have occurred when this steamer was Iyiig in the offing, a short distance away. Angel Ylurbide, son of the ex Emperor, died at Mexico on the same day as Juarez. A railroad accident occurred yesterday near Finksburg, which wreoked two cars and injured fourteen persons.

George H. Evans, a recent West Point graduate, about four o'clock yesterday morning indulged in a little private and sucoesifol target practice at his father's house, in South Pittsburg. William Hoegerbnrg, a burglar and desperado who had served one term in the penitentiary, was disturbed in his professional business and sought to escape. Evans shot him dead, and now awaltB release from temporary imprisonment by the action of the Coroner's jury. The World is responsible for the publication of the statement that, on Monday last, Mr.

William Eilian, owner of a saloon at North William and Frank fort streets, saw a large meteoric stone fall in William street and break Into fragments. It weighed about ten pounds, was soft, and is composed of oxide of iron and sulphurets. The pieces were quite hot When first picked up, and smelted strongly of sulphur. This Indicates plainly where they oame from, and Mr. Kilian bad better look out for hlmaelf, and be careful that he gives the World the exact truth about it.

crats, is all that the Admistration ventures to put beforo itself in West Virginia. The election is further complicated by the fact that the people1 are, called upon to vote on the adoption of a new Constitution. Party lines do not divide the people on several of the provisions of this instrument, and the vote on it in detail will afford no indication of party strength. We desire only to emphasize the fact that Grrantism is so unpopular in West Virginia, that no candidate now soliciting the saffrajo of its people ventures to defend it. In West Virginia the Administration has given up the contest.

ine next state election following that in West Virginia takes place in Vermont. This State is conceded to Grant. His majority in 18G8 was over thirty two thousand on a vote of fifty six thousand. In 1870 the Radicals carried the State by over twenty thousand. The strength of the Liberal Republican movement in this State will be indicated by the reduction of these majorities and a reduction is the best that is hoped for.

Maine holds her election on the 9th of September, and more interest is felt in the result in this State than in any election which precedes the November straggle, hardly excepting Pennsylvania. In 18G8, in the content for Governor in September, the Republicans carried Maine by a majority of 28,038, and last year the same party succeeded, on a light vote, by over 10,000. Despite of this vote, the Liberals this year are confident that they will either carry the Stats, or so far reduce the majority for the Grant party as to make a certainty of Greeley's success in November. In no State has the union between the Democrats and the Liberal Republicans been more cordial than in Maine, and from no State has more cheering news been recai ed for the party of reconciliation aad nationality. If Mf ne does as well as North Carolina, whetl sr their hopes he well founded or not, the L.berals will go into the Novembar straggle confident of victory, and this is in itself half a victory.

Tennessee and Kentucky are as certain to be for Greeley as Vermont for Grant. Pennsylvania will be hotly contested by both parties to the close of the polls. Attempts have been made to withdraw from the field the odious candidates presented for State officers, through the influence of the "Cameron ring," but all efforts in this direction having failed, all that can be done through the power and patronage of the Administration is being done to induce the votere to swallow Hartranft for Grant's sake, for the.
