Hif takes a sensible view of Tthe pilitioal field, and shows up' the folly of the foolish assertion of such ignorant agitators as Kearney. The Republican party, says Mr. Mason, pas a policy and an honorable history; the Democratic party has neither. He would do what he could for the success of the former, and deemed it the-duty of all persons who agree with him to) follow his example. His speech was gratifying and encouraging to the Republicans of Western Pennsylvania, who nowj feet confident that the old strength of the party will be developed.

Old Alleghany county has always been a Republican stronghold, and the indications are that she will double her Republican majority, and greatly swell the majority which the Keystone State will give to Garfield and' Arthur.

T.VOU Oaedct TV nU CornevilU. THURSDAY AUGUST 19 REPUBLICAN TICKET. rOR PRESIDENT JAMES A. GARFIELD of Ohio FOR VICE-PRESIDENT CHESTER A. ARTH JR of N.

A.1 Vivisection. A few years ago violent campaign wan commenced against the practice of conducting experiments on living animals, which involves the infliction of pain. This campaign was conducted most energetically in 'England, where it even went so far as the passage of laws forbidding such action. Fainter echoes were heard on the cootiuent, resulting, however, in no action. Still later there has been more or less talk about the subject in this country, where, however, the practice of vivisection is far less prevalent on account of the occasion for it being less in this portion of the world than in Europe.

The experiments made upon living animals, dos, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and the like small animals, are the means by which scientific investigators hare arrived at some of their most valuable and instructive results in the domain of 'physiology. The conditions of the living organism are so complex, and the opportunities so few where the sequence of cause and. effect can be certainly traced in a natural state of the organism, that the scientific progress of physiology would be extremely slow, and the important applications of its principles to the life aud health of man would be arrived at with vast delays, were it not for the method which the scientific investigators have adopted of making their observations and experiments upon these lower forms of life. By this means the study of the functions of the interior organs, the nature of various derangements, has been pursued with an energy and success that is hardly surpassed in auy other branch of science. In this way has a very large fraction of the Vork been done which has been most valuable in laying that scientific foundation which is some time, sooner or later, to give rise to a rational and scientific system of medicine and hygiene.

The studies of the greatest questions in human physiology have been mainly carried out by systematic experiments on smaller animals, with here and there an accidental opportunity to confirm and compare in the human subject The greatest and best of physiologists of this country and of Europe have employed vivisection as an aid, chloroform-ing when that could be done, which is not always the case. It is not meant -by this to justify unnecessary cruelty to animals, nor the experimenting on animals by students not mature enough to discriminate properly. Nor could such experiments be defended as the throwing of cats and dogs into the rapids of Niagara, to seevwbether animal life can live through the fall, as has been done, is or can we defend the experiment of Dr. Tanner, to see how long some men can live without eating, for no snch experiments give us data which can be used to build up a better knowledge of vital pi oc esses or more rational methods of preserving life and health. But when the experiments.

are made with their legitimate object of lay ing the foundation of a better knowledge of the conditions of life and health, -v It would be only a weak sentimentality that would prevent the advance of the science at the expense of the life and health of the human race, even if it cost the lives ef some thousand innocent fart, if we had not the ani- malsyit might be good humanity in the long run to hand over now and then a few desperate criminals to the surgeon's The next National House of Repre- sentativei will contain its present num ber of members. The new ap portion -u ment will not go into'effect until 1883, but toe members elected in November aext will make the apportionment. As a matter of party policy for this, if for no higher motive, the Republicans should strain every nerve to elect a majority of 4 the members of the next Congress. The Democrats fully understand and appreciate the importance of 'the struggle, and they are prepared to make sacrifices to elect their Congressional nominees. -If the ratio of apportionment were not changed the number would be increased to 330 and the South would materially increase her importance and influence.

Although the present Hall of the House of Representatives ia crowded now, and 380, members could not be comfortably seated, still the South would rather suffer inconvenience and discomfort than not gain in membership to strengthen her power. The ratio, it is presumed, will be increased from 131,425 the present figure to 170,000. The basis has been changed after every census since 1790. The changes were as fallows TeesvV?

OAHXAIID Steam Carpet Heating Twsnty-fira street, between Broadway aad Tel egrapn avenue, CCXSLXT rnC3 tares in tne rind so small as to. escape Observation. A surgeon in the German army calls the attention of all who have to do with horses to the danger of using the pocket handkerchief to wipe away any foam from the month or nose of a horse which may have been thrown upon their clothes. Some months ago, the writer states, an officer came to hfm suffering from an obstinate cold and The usual remedies were but in vsin; a visit to the baths at Reichenhall also did the patient no good. Returning to duty, the officer became worse; fever, attended with great psin in and swelling of the head, set in, and ultimately, after much suffering, he died with: every symptom of glanders.

Inquiries were set on foot, and it was found that some time before he was taken ill he had ordered a horse which he believed was suffering from glanders to be shot. Neither the groom nor any of the other soldiers who had been near the horse have been attacked by glanders, and consequently it is supposed that the officer who died may have conveyed the disease into his system by perhaps using his handkerchief to wipe some, of the toam from the mouth or nose! of tbe horse from his uniform. Brisson, who may be Premier of France before many months, took Gambetta's place as orator at the one hundred and twelfth anniversary celebration; of the birth of Hoche. The troops turned out and filed past the gallant young General's statue, on which the following inscription, erased under the Monarchy, has been restored: "Had he lived, his glory, ever on the increase, would never have infringed the liberty of his country." Bnsson, in proposing a toast to the array, wnicb ne aescnoea ss tne nooie daughter of tne devolution, reterrea to its unity with the nation, and said the present anniversary, commemorating as it did the memory of one whose glory had never imposed a single sacrifice on his country, was a fitting prelude to the national fetet of the 14th of July. He entered into a panygeric of the National Convention which introduced a new era into tbe political administrative financial and social phases of the country.

"Let us," he continued, "remember the duties that have been bequeathed to us; and we must work hard, indeed, before we can adequately repay the debt wc owe our forefathers;" Curious notions of morality appear to prevail among certain inhabitants of the Orkney Isles, who, when a wreck has taken place ontheir coast, are, it seems, in the habit of carrying off for their own use everything they can lay their predatory hands on. This occurred recently when the bark Poolscar of Liverpool was wrecked out twelve miles from Kirkwall, the capital of Orkney. The enterprising natives annexed coils of rope, cases of wine, spars, ship fittings and stores, so that at the sale of what was left of the unfortunate vessel "there was not exposed so much as a tin of meat, pot of paint, ship's compass, clock or any other of the small odds and ends generally sold upon such occasions So clean a sweep had been made that even the legs of the cabin table had been sawn away close to the floor, and the table bodily carried These people, who consider plundering a wreck perfectly legitimate, are reported to be a "highly moral" race. An ordinary case of theft is hardly known, and the only reason why they make an exception in favor of the flotsam and jetsam of a stranded vessel is that "they still hold by the old principle that a wreck is a gift from Providence." Mr. Cordea' Complaint.

Editor Tribune: I hope you; will permit me to say a few words in your valuable paper, which I honestly believe is worked for the best interest of our adopted home, as a natural mother of all new communities. In a free country like ours, some unavoidable errors are committed in forming laws to govern said community, but we take it for granted that all lews ire formed with the intention of protecting their citizens in their legal rights. I further believe that if such laws are formed that it is the duty of the framers of the law, or their successors, to investigate and see if the spirit of such law is carried out, or if it is misused by those whom the law-makers have empowered to enforce it. I have always looked upon it in a light of pro tec tion, and have always believed that all laws were framed for that purpose. What I complain of is, namely: There was.

in former days, a law framed in this city, the intention and purpose oi which was to protect our citizens from being imposed upon by their neighbors or others, where they would wilfully run cattle or horses on streets or public squares; but the spirit of the law is not, believe, to force the citizens and taxpayers to employ three lazy vagabond to steal and annoy our citizens. I have been hunted by these hounds engsged in our pound-yard for the last six months. Our worthy city fathers, to whom 1 applied last night, in place of referring my petition to the proper committee to investigate, whether my complaint was right or wrong; whether that pound-yard was used for the protection el the citizens of Oakland, or merely for the taxpayers to feed three lazy bummers (one seems to be especially employed by the city fathers to lay arocni in groceries and bar-rooms, and he is given full fpower and permission to engage a couple of tramps to steal and annoy our citizens) but in place of our honorable city fathers giving it a proper investigatim, they hung it up on the lamp post. I think it is a very convenient place to dispose of matters not open 1 a u- quite as convenient for much larger bodies to bang on my protest against tbe abused law of pound-keeping. HERMAN jWORDKZ.

Oakland, August 17, 1880. The petition of Mr. Cordes has been referred to, and is in the hands of the Com mittee on Street Lights and Lamp-posts. They will investigate the matter and report upon it. The Poundmaster says that the cows followed an express wagoa through the gate and into the street where his assistants found them and took them to the Pound, thereby doing their simple duty.

The alarm turned in last evening from box 15, corner of San Pablo venne and Thirty -sixth' street, was caused by a fire in a two-story frame building about 28 feet north of Thirty-sixth street bo 'San Pablo avenue. Before the engine ar rived the fire had been extinguished by Fred Cam pbell Hose Company No. 2.

An examination of the premises showed that a bold plan had been made to burn the house, which is owned by a widow named Mono. One fire had been set in thekitchen. In ay bed-room adjoining a heap of clothing fonod saturated with coal and burning briskly.

account of the diaasterous fire at that place: Eureka August 18th. At about ten o'clock a. m. yesterday an alarm of fire was sounded, and a dense cloud of smoke was seen to issue from tbe rear of Mrs. Poulin'a fruit and vera table store, on Main street, just south of the Odd Fellows' Halt in two minutes several woooen duiiuuki in the immediate vicinity were enveloped in flames.

The fire seemed to make unprecedented headway from tbe very start. Tbe wind was blowing a gale from the southward, and continued to blow fiercely until tbe flames bad run their course, ne tire hacked un aninst the wind on the southward to Gold street, crossing Buell, and in turn reaching to Spring and Paul streets. Its course and scope wers almost identical with the great conflagration of Anril. 1879. Three hundred bouses, many of them business establishments, were destroyed; also some of the finest nd most costly residences in town were consumed.

A space equal to nity acres oi tne very heart of the town was swept over. In THE VAST AREA Only a half dozen buildings remain to relieve the widespread ruin and desolation. Jack Perry's corner, Tommy Douglass' building, the Foley-Rickard block, Paxton bank, Jake Conn's store, Dr. Schneider drug store, Kayser's clothing store, and C. Lantenschlager's corner saloon, are the only buildings left.

All else was literally licked up. The Leader office, the Odd Fellows Hill, the Theater, the International Ho tel, A. M. Hillhouse's elegant residence, and the Methodist Church were among the prominent buildings destroyed. The Jackson House was gutted, but still stands.

The International burned almost level with the ground. It was due to the most heroic efforts that the (ire was confined to the east side of Main street. Tbe exact origin of the fire is not known. The first anyone knew the flames was far advanced in the rear of the premises already noted. When the fire bad got beyond control, a scene ensued which beggars all description.

Hundreds of men, women and children, totally panic stricken frenzied, in fact, with fear were fleeing in all directions for safety. THE LOSSES Are estimanted at three-quarters of a million, covered by $150,000 insurance. It is ascertained that fewer poor families were burned out than on the occasion of the other great fire. The Dailg Leader is being insued regularly from the Sentinel office. There is iu the hands of the old Relief Committee of a year ago about $2,000.

It has not been determined to call for extraneous aid, though tbe Oommitte to-morrow may ask for assistance. OAKLAND BREVITIES. Friday evening, the Agassiz Club will hold a regular meeting and elect officers. The dime social of the First M. E.

Church will be held in the church parlors to-morrow evening. John Merchant, the man who was found in convulsions Tuesday night, has been to the County Hospital. The pupils of Miss S. L. Hinmau, will give au invitation $oirtt muticaU this evening at Camron Hall.

It will be assisted by Mesdames Palmer and Trow, and Messrs. Edwards and Duffy. Mr. J. J.

Gardiner's horse and buggy which was stolen on Monday last, was seen passing through San Pablo village towards evening of the same day. Detectives are on the track, and it will be singular indeed if a recovery is not made. An organization known as the Myrtle Literary Society has just been formed, and is composed of young ladies and gentlemen who meet once in two weeks at houses of the different members. The next meeting will be at 541 Hobart street, Sept. 6th.

The assertion that the sidewalk and road-bed on Twelfth street causeway were injured by the recent removal of frame buildings across, is without foundation, as the buildings did not in any instance come in contact with the walks. The boles between the planking and the macadam were there before, and are the result of an inadequate foundation. POLITICAL POINTS The First Ward Republican Club hold a meeting this evening. The Alameda Republicans will hold a mass meeting Saturday night, when Henry Vrooman proposes to deliver an extended address upon the issues of the campaign. An address will be delivered by D.

L. Emerson, before the Central Republican Club, next Saturday evenirg. Mr. Emerson will treat the political issues of the day in a vigorous manner. To morrow night the Soldiers' and Sailors' League of this city will hold a mass meeting at Headquarters on Broadway, previous to which there will be a torchlight procession from Market and Seventh streets to the Headquarters, the hue of march being up Market to Twelfth to Broadway, down Broadway to the hall.

The Soldiers' and Sailors' League of San Francisco, the young Men's Garfield and Arthur Club of the Tenth Senatorial District, and the Garfield Fire Brigade of Oakland will participate in the procession. In addition to speeches, there will be campaign songs by glee clubs and quartettes. PERSONAL MENTION. W. H.

Dynes, of this city, was in Sacramento yesterday. Henry Rogers, of this city, has been elected a member of the Board of Trustees of the California Lumbermen's Association, which organized yesterday. Samuel James Bridge, formerly United States Appraiser-General in San Francisco, has had conferred, upon bim by Harvard College the honorary degree of Master of Arts. For thirty years he was in the Custom-House service, and for the past ten years has been enjoying foreign travel. He is the founder of the Bridge Medal Fund of the San Francisco School Department.

Oaf the 30th of July he was in Paris, bnt expected to arrive at Boston on the 20th of this month. A Ldvely Bicycle Raa evad Drill. An imposing display of handsome bicycles and expert riders took place last evening which attracted the attention of all who witnessed the movements of the grand cavalcade. The excursion and parade have been in contemplation and preparation for some time, and was thoroughly carried out. There were twenty, machines and riders from San Francisco, two from Berkeley and twelve from Oakland under the command of Captain George H.

Strong. The orders were given by bugle signals and the movements of the riders into different ranks were creditably executed. The party went from Oakland to San Leandro, where almost the entire population turned oat to receive them. They returned late in the evening in the moon light, highly satisfied with the results of the trip. I is proposed to make other little excursions daring i the summer and 0T Pw esasusv if This morning, at; 9 o'clock, Mr.

An gust Hines, a yonng German, who is well known in this city, started for a two years tour in Germany, where he will study also. He has been for eight years in a large furniture manufactory in Baa Francisco, where his close attention to business gained him the respect of his employers. Last evening the Oakland Turners gave Mr. Hints a serenade and were cordially received. He will carry with him the best wishes of a host of friends.

Mr. Qcat, a leading Pennsylvania Republican, has aj keen perception of the proper way to conduct a campaign. When called upon io make a speech at a Garfield meeting jthe other day, he replied: "Gentlemen, this campaign requires work and not talk, here is my check for $500." A few speeches of that kind are worth scores of elaborate ones, addressed to political clubs. By circulating intelligent journals and documents compiled with care and judgment, more is accoir.plished than public speeches before an assemblage; of politicians whose political convictions are known and unchangeable. Let the wealthy Republicans of California follow the example of Mr.

Quay, and they will be abundantly rewarded by carrying the State for Garfield and Arthur, electing four members of Congress, and securing the suc cessor of Senator Booth. The prize is a grand one, and worthy tb.9 efforts and sacrifices of the influential men of the party. 1 Gk.v. Grant occupies no equivocal position in the Presidential contest. Reports have beea widely circulated by Democrats that he Was dissatisfied at the action of the Chicago Convention, and would give the nominees of the Convention a cold support.

He recently wrote to a friend in New York saying: "You have my fall sympathy in support of the ticket headed by Garfield and Arthur. I have lost no opportunity of saying what I could in private conversation, or rather in conversation, in behalf of the ticket, and shall jriot." Cold comfort that, for the Democrat. Grant, Blainb, Loo an, Comklisu and Sherman have all wheeled into line, and are working faithfully for the nominees of their party, and their support carries with it a vast majoriety of the voters of the United States. Mr. English, the Democratic candidate for Vice-President, has a remarkable knack for looking out for the interests of No.

1. He is generous when he can make something out of his generosity. It is1 reported that when he was President of the Indianapolis Street Railroad Company, a little girl was run over by one of his cars, and so badly in-jured that her leg had to be amputated. English hastened to her mother, an ignorant woman, and made a compromise for owe hum) red doUajrt fie then called up the driver of the street-ear, and by threats of prosecution for manslaughter, forced him to scrape together $100 to pay the Company's loss. He is noted for his parsimony, and tak ing all the advantage the law allows.

Struscocs efforts are being made to get the Workingmen to nominate J. V. Webster, of Fruit Vale, for Congress in this District. It is promised if the Workingmen nominate him the Democrats next Saturday, at their District Convention, will indorse his nomination, and that the united vote of the two parties will be strong enough to elect him. He is the weakest man in the District.

He is a bitter opponent of the State Uni. versity, and allows no opportunity to pass to give it a stab. Page will defeat him worse than he did Tom Clunie. NOTES AND EXCERPTS. The ceremony of receiving into the Jewish fsith a woman who had been converted from Christianity, was a recent religious event in Rochester.

A steamer has left Bayonne with a commission of English and French sa vants, who are tq explore the depths of tbe rJay oi and investigate the great submarine Valley along tbe Spanish coast. Dr. Pusey agrees with Canon Farrar on au important question. He declares that it is not a dogma de fide that those who die in a state of sin cannot be reclaimed hereafter. Canon Farrar replies that this is all he has ever asserted in his sermon on eternal punishment.

The highest (monument in Great Britain, and possibly in Europe, is that erected by his tenantry to the first Duke of Sutherland, bu the summit of Ben Vraggie, Sutherlandshire. 1.400 feet above the sea.

It is at the same time asserted that, however tempting this offer may be to Persia, Russian intrigues will prevent the sale. From a law advertisement in the Lon don newspapers! it appears that the will of the late Missj Helen Jane Gladstone, sister of the Prime Minister, is missing. The administrators of the deceased lady's estate, who are the Premier and Sir Thomas Gladstone, are in postession of a testamentary document executed by her as far back; 185Z, but they nave reason to believe that another will was executed by this deceased in Rome or elsewhere about four years afterward. It is this will that is missing, and information respecting it is now advertised for by the administrators' solicitors.
