J The Fresdency.
Washington, May 22d.— The action of the
Illinois and Alabama Conventions, in adding
61 vote 4 to the ' Grant column, ha* created
among Washington politicians what i < com
monly described us the "bulge" for the ex-
President, and the fact that 1 1. is feeling has
set in during the week immediately preced
ing the meeting of the National Convention
is conceded to be decidedly advantageous to
taut. It is apparent that a great many
Congressmen who ten days ago did not think
that Grant could have been nominated have
since the action of the Illinois Convention
reconsidered their conclusions, and freely ad
mit that it will require a combination of very
unexpected circumstances to defeat him.
The moat prominent friends of the candida
cies of Blainc and Sherman do not, however,
despair of still achieving success for their re
spective candidates. Sherman's friends stoutly
dony the rumor that he is now desirous of
obtaining the second place on the Grant ticket.
The Democratic members of Congress from
New Jersey unite in denying the claim . that
Tilden has received the whole of the New
Jersey delegates. They claim that the dele
gation stands as follows : For Bayard 8,
Randolph 4, ex-Governor Parker 3, Tilden 1,
Jewett 1, and 1 doubtful. Although the
National Greenback Convention is to be held
in Chicago on the 9th of June, there is but
little interest attached to it. It is said that
if General Grant is nominated General Butler
will support him. In view of this report,
Butler's nomination by the Greenbackers,
which at one time was in serious contempla
tion, no longer appears probable.
TWO " POLITICAL BURGLARS," ■
Chicago, May 22d.— following card,
dated Springfield, May 21st, from . Hon.
Charles B. Far well, will be published to-mor
row:
To thi> Republicans of Illinois : By the personal
and desperate exertions of Senator Logan, of the
ComtnisKioiier of Internal Revenue and his Collec
tor;, and by the disgraceful interference of national
officers, in the primaries of county Conventions,
General Grant has apparently carried Illinois by the
contemptible majority of 38, with Cook county un
represented. It the whole 92 delegates of Cook
county had been admitted, the vote would have been
64 against Grant. If the 50 uncon tested delegates
from Cook county had been allowed to vote, there
would have been 18 majority against Grant. The
Convention was packed from its organization. The
Chairman was ordered to recognize only certain per
sons. Tho debate was cut off and parliamentary
law neglected or overruled as the exigencies required
What is so me iger a majority in his own State worth
to General Grant? Die anti-Grant districts have
appointed delegates, and will present them at Chi
cago. Logan and Garcelon stand as the political
burglars of the time, and Logan's crime against lib
erty will, in the en. l, bring him no more spoil than
was won by Garcelon.
TROUBLE IN PEMNBTI.VANIA.
Philadelphia, May 22d.— A committee of
the Democratic State Convention today
heard representatives of the rival city com
mittees, and invites them to appoint commit
tees to meet on the Bth of July next and
confer as to the best plan of adjusting their
differences.
I Ik- Birhr* of California.
Philadelphia, May 22d.— A sub-commit
tee of the Committee on Coinage, Weights
and Measures, visited the Philadelphia Mint
yesterday, and, at a collation subsequently
given by the Board of Trade, Horace Davis
of California spoke as follows: "When all
the rest of the country was forced to paper
currency California adhered to her currency
of coin. Gold and silver flowed there from
all the States. People there at that time in
terested themselves in examining the coins
that came from other places, and they found
C stamped upon one, aD upon another, and
an O upon still another. These they recog
nized as coming from the mints at Charlotte,
Dahlonega and New Orleans. But there was
always a large number which bore no letters.
These were from the eldest of the sisterhood
of mint', and they needed no distinguishing
mark, just as the eldest daughter of the fam
ily is Miss Smith, and not Miss Charlotte. It
turns out, however, that one of the junior sis
—she at San Francisco— has a much
larger and finer establishment than the eld
est sister has ; and I am in favor of placing
the latter upon at least as high a level as the
more favored daughter on the Pacific."
Returning to the comparison between the
mineral wealth and agricultural wealth of
California, Davis said the wheat crop alone
of that State, leaving out barley, oats and all
other products of the farm, is now greater in
value than the production of the precious
metals. . This is the second stage of Califor
nia's progress, and she has entered upon the
third, that of manufactures, in which, as he
believed, the State had capabilities far sur
passing both the others combined ; and this
has led Californians to reconsider their views
upon the subject of protection, and it may be
set down with reasonable certainty that the
Californian voice will hereafter be in favor of
a policy of protection. As Davis proceeded
with his remarks, and especially at the con
clusion, he was greeted with frequent demon
strations of applause. '
Glut or Sliver in (he Treasury at New
York-Thanks- rersonal.
Washington, May 224— Secretary Sher
man sent to the House to-day a letter from
the Assistant Treasurer at New York, say
ing that the I additional amount of silver he

ing, with what he now has on hand, $28,000,

Treasury there weighs 500 tons.
The British Minister here, under tele
graphic orders, has conveyed to the Govern
ment of the United States ' the sincere and
cordial thanks of Her Majesty's Government
for its generous and friendly conduct in hav
ing dispatched the United States ship Con

were so much needed for the relief of her dis
tressed subjects in Ireland, and which, be
tides being a substantial aid to them, has
been accepted by Her Majesty's subjects as
proof of the friendly feelings entertained
toward them by the Government and citizens
of the United States.

- , ,V, The Omaha Strike.
Omaha (Neb.), May 22d.— The strike con
tinues at the smelting works. Nearly all the
imported colored men left for their homes in
Kansas and . Missouri this afternoon. , Gov
ernor Vance addressed the strikers this after
noon, and listened to their statements. He
told them that while no one could prevent
their striking, they had no right to stop other
men from working. They will meet again on
Sunday morning to talk over the situation
among themselves. " Two companies of regu
lar? and four companies of militia are under
arms in the city, and prepared for any emer
gency, although no serious trouble is now an
ticipated."- The workingmen, who have been
very orderly and sober, feel incensed at the
action of the authorities in calling out the mil
itary. ; :■ -.;- ..'-:■ •■ r./v- .; •- --j-.'jK-"-

The Elwloral Count.
Washington-, May 22*1.— In the Senate
to-day an interesting diacussion took place
over Senator Morgan's proposed jiiint rule
for counting the electoral vote, introduced
for the purpose of prescribing the uiorle of
canVHSsing the vote on the next Presidential
election, and taking the matter out of the
hands of the Vice- President. In the debate
Senator Morgan argued for harmony. Let
thf houses, he said, meet as juditea.
Conkling saiU the resolution accomplished
nothing.
Morgan intimated that tho Republicans
opposed the resolution from a desire to have
the Vice-President control the count indi
rectly.
Conkling humorously assured Morgan and
Thurman ( who were making side remarks) that
their prospects for the Presidency was a dis
solving view. He said that the President
woul'l be elected by the people next time,
and therefore he looked upon this legislation
with much greater pleasure than he otherwise
would.
Morgan saiJ that four years ago guns were
said to have been put in portion to bear upon
this Capitol to coutrol the counting of the
electoral vote.
Conkling said he h.vi never heard that, and
declared that it wag vapory talk. This reso
lution was merely a temporary expedient.
Ha expressed the hope that Thmnvin would
be the Democratic candidate for President.
The count contemplated by this measure
w&s to be made by these two houses both
Democratic, but the movers were aware that
the next houses might be both Kepublican,
and were resolved only to make sure of the
present opportunity as a temporary thing.
It should be a law, and not a joint rule,
which should regulate this question.
Morgan said the late Senat»r O. P. Mor
ton favored this rule, and had proposed it as a
law ; but, instead, the two houtes bad adopted
the twenty-second joint rule, and had three
counts under it, and they ahn gated the rule
when they Baw one house would be Demo
cratic. He affirmed that the Republicans
were determined to quarrel with any rui«!
whatever. The Democrats had done their
duty, and would submit it to the approval of
the people. He alluded to the threat of
Ooakilsß that New York (which, he said,
went aud came like a locomotive at the bid
dLag of her master, Conkling) would cast her
vote in the usual way, Bad Mid Xew York
was dreaded all over thi - land.
No decision was reached.

HOW TO SEE YOSEMITE.
The large Boston excursion party, which
comprises about one hundred and lifty
members, now in Southern California, was
the advance guard of Eastern visitors to
the Pacific coast this year. The terrors of
the overland journey have been dissipated
by the accounts of trustworthy travelers.
The seven-days ride in palace cars has been
shown to be far less trying to nervous peo
ple than a humdrum sea-voyage, the mo
notony of whiuk is only broken by the un
speakable ills of sea-sickness. American*,
to their credit be it said, have a great de
sire to see all parts of their country. The
Eastern States have lieen worn threadbare;
the St. Lawrence trip lost all its old nov
elty ; the South is not attractive just at
the time when tourists are most anxious
to travel. There remains nothing except
Western attractions, and of all these Cali
fornia will always take the lead. An air
of romance hangs over the Pacific coast
which no amount of familiarity has ever
been able to dissipate. Radically distinct
as it is in co many ways from the East, a
visit to it is something like an excursion
into a foreign country.
From all reports, this season ought to
witness a great increase in the number of
Eastern tourists. We can always count
ou the traveling Englishman, for he regards
as a failure a visit to this country which
docs not include what he facetiously terms
"a run across the continent." But for
several years the hard times at the East
have put a damper on long vacation jour
neys. It has been the aim of every one
to take his summer recreation in the must
economical way. This j'ear revival of
business unlooses all purse-strings, and the
season just opened promises to see an un
usual amount of travel from the East to
this coast. It is also a hopeful sign that
the tourists are not waiting until the plains
are pushed with July drought before set
tin'; their faces westward.
Of course, to the tourist, Yosemite is the
chief attraction in the State. It over
shadows everything else in California, rich
as the State is in natural wonders. The gen
eral verdict is that it is better worth see
ing than anything else in this country, and
the public is coming to believe this in
spite of its skepticism about places that
have been over-advertised. To visit the
famous valley was once regarded as a
great feat, but the railroads have changed
all that. The long ride on mule back over
thorny trails are things of the past. Timid
people even now sigh at the prospect of
the stage ride, but the fatigues of this
part are largely due to the vivid imagina
tion of correspondents. Innumerable lies
have been told about the valley both by its
friends and enemies, so that it is difficult
for one who has not visited Yosemite to
form any clear idea of the trip. Ilival
ticket agents puzzle the uninitiated by their
efforts to secure patronage for their roads,
and they do stretch the truth until it will
bear no further tension. Then the humor
ous man comes in with his burlesque on
the extortions of guides, hotel-keepers and
other denizens of the valley. Like Niagara
l-'alls, Yosemite has been greatly libeled by
this fraternity, most of whom do their
traveling on deadhead passes and at special
hotel rates. They expect city accommoda
tions in the forest, and rail at the whole
place because they are charged more for
boot-blacking than they would pay on
Broadway or Montgomery street.
On such people any hints for practical
sight-seeing are thrown away. They know
not how to travel, and they get no satis
faction from fine scenery or novel aspects
of nature. The average tourist, happily,
differs entirely from this chronic nnisunce.
For such, a few notes about Yosemite may
be found useful. The best months to see
the valley are May and June ; then the
volume of water in the fall 3is large and the
Yoaemite itself can only be seen in its true
majesty. July and August are charming
months for climate, but the 1.-ilis are then
shrunken and the trails are dusty. The
early autumn, save for the one feature of
the waterfalls, is as attractive as sprint.'.
Tourists who wish to enjoy themselves
should carry as little luggage as possible,
and should dress in clothes which will
bear a liberal coating of dust. Oray twend
for men and brown linen wrappers for la
dies form the most serviceable wear. At
any time later than May 15th, clothes of
medium weight, with heavy wraps, will be
found most comfortable. During July,
August and September, the climate in the
valley is almost exactly like that of the
mountain country at the E;»st — like the
Adirondacks, the White Hills or the St.
Lawrence region.
Hotel rates in the valley will be found
very reasonable and the accommodations
unusually good. Prices range from $2 50
to S3 50 per day. The tables are excel
lent, aud if the sleeping-rooms are some
what primitive, one may excuse the lack
of city surroundings when he reflects that
every article ha 3to be hauled over one
hundred miles of rough mountain roads.
The tolls to the various trails about the
valley are not excessive. The owners of
these trails have dug them at much ex
pense, and their charges are only a fair
remuneration for their outlay. A check to
all extortion, is found in a Guardian of
the Valley, whose duty it is to receive and
investigate all complaints against guides or
toll- takers.
The trip to the valley may be made to
suit the purse of the tourist. With the
help of the saddle-horse keeper, who will
always meet him half way, he can make it
very expensive. But with proper economy
a man may spend a week in the valley for
§100, including fare from this city and re
turn. This will include very little horse
hire, as an active pedestrian may tramp
over all the trails with no great amount of
fatigue or discomfort. Saddle-horse hire
averages from §4 50 to $5 per day. The
horses and mules are admirably trained,
and the most timid lady may trust to their
sare-footedness on any trail. Gnide hire
is $5 a day. When shared by a large party
this inaki's a mere nominal sum for each,
but small parties will tind it a grievous tax.
In the hight of the season parties are made
up at the hotels for all the chief points, and
the hearty pood-fellowship that prevails in
the valley allows any one to join in these
excursions. Yosemite tourists have always
been noted for their absence of convention
ality. The majority believe in having a
good time. The men fraternize over morn
ing cocktails, and the ladies don't wait for
formal introduction to exchange among one
another their impressions of this delightful
place. The woman who preserves an icy
exclusiveness and ventures not beyond the
pale of her set or party is the exception,
and not the rule. In brief, residents and
visitors seem to meet on the common
ground of pleasure, and they generally
succeed in having a royal time.

[Special to the RkoukO'L'.mox.] '
■Washington, May 23d.— The prospects
for an adjournment of Congress by the 31st
instant have not increased (luting the past
week, but rather diminished. The sundry
civil or " omnibus " appropriation bill, which
has just been reported from the committee,
usually consumes five or six days insetting
through the House of Representatives, and
with the utmost expedition is not likely to
reach the Senate before the latter part of
this week. The general deficiency bill will
then remain to be considered by the House,
and of course subsequently by the Senate,
and the House has also to vote upon
the Senate amendments to the Post
office and the legislative appropriation
bills. Both of these important measures
contain subjects of controversy which cannot
be adjusted without more or mm — espe
cially the star-route clause of the former.
That will undoubtedly give rise to further
discussion in the House as the river and har
bor appropriation bill has not yet received
more than a merely preliminary considera
tion in the Senate Committee on Commerce,
and even if any appropriation bills were
now ready for action by the Senate,
that body is already engaged in discuss
in},' the electoral-count question, and still
has the Kelloßß case to dispose of, with
a strong deposition to get both of
these troublesome matters out of the way be
fore considering any other business. At all
events, however, it seems to be very improb
able that the Senate will consent practically
to abdicate its right of independent consider
ation of the remaining appropriation bills by
rushing them through in the two or three
days which alone will intervene between the
time they will reach that body and the date
proposed by the House resolution for ad
journment.
Senator Farley is actively endeavoring to
obtain the insertion by the Senate Commerce
Committee of an appropriation in the river
and harbor bill for Wilmington. The House
committee purposely omitted making any
provision for the completion of the Wilming
ton improvements, but Farley is hopeful of
having the omission supplied in the Senate.

Washington, May — Win. E. Chand

chief Washington lieutenant, this evening
sent the following dispatch to j. S. Clarkson,
editor of the lowa State Rcgitter :
The best and most reliable estimate that can be
made this evening gives on the first ballot at Chi
cago: Maine 305, Grant 259, Sherman 105, Ed
munds 35, Washburne 12, Win Join 10 — or 209 for
Grant to 467 for all the others. Th s estimate i<
based upon 15 votes for Blame from New York anil
18 from Pennsylvania, but none from Ohio or Illi
nois. Of the 20 contesting delegates from Illinois
elected by the strongest Republican Congressional
districts, 14 are for Maine ami six for Wushburne.
I ha c little doubt the result will substantially
the above estimate, and that Mr. Blame will be

.Senator David Davis on Public Qnt*
(ions.
Washington, May 23d.— 0. H. Browning,
of Quincy, 111., formerly Secretary of the In
tenor, has addressed a letter to Senator Davis,
propounding a number of queries, which he
prefaces by complimentary allusions to the
statesmanlike qualities of Davis. The Sena
tor's answer to the queries are found in his
reply, which follows :
(7mm Statfs Senate, »
Wxmiinuton, May 14th. /
My Dear Sir : I have had the pleasure of receiving
jour letter of the Cth inst. As a constituent, a
friend and an honored citizen of Illinois, you have a
perfect right to act for my views on public questions,
and 1 have no hesitation in expressing them, taken the
inquiries in order.
1. Ihe Present Peace in the Union : Permanent
prosperity and fraternal fellowship are only to be
attained by silencing sectional strife. A faithful
adherence to the Constitution and all its amend
ments, a strict observance of the laws in confo niitj
therewith, nd equal right] and equal protection lor
every citizen in every part of the Kepublic, will soon
end the discords that have too long vexed the,
countiy and injured its material welfare. People
are weary < f the agitation and want peace
2. Centralization : The Constitution widely defines
the respective limits of the Federal and State Gov
ernments under a happy and harmonious system,
wherein each is independent in its own appropriate
sphere, and both operate concurrently for the in
tegrity ami stability of the Union. Any encroach
ment on the distinctive domain of the other neces
sarily dislocates the machinery of the Const tution
and endangers the whole body p l:tic. In fact,
every departure from the great charter of liberty
and law is attended with peril. Ihe demand made
by the adherents of one of the great parties for a
strong government means substantially a central
ized government, destructive of home rule instates,
and the very reverse of what Mr. Lincoln well de
scribed as a government of the people, by the peo
pie and for the people. Carried to its logical con
clusions, such change would finally overthrow the
Republic.
3. The Third Term : An innovation upon the
sv.ctiAed traditions of the Presidency first estab
lished by the example of Washingto.i, is urgently
demanded by a powerful inurest in the Hepu Mean
party. If the limitation of two terms, heretofore
universally accepted, be destroyed, the w.iy to self
perpetuating the Presidency will be opened by the
use and abuse of the enormous public patronage.
Break down this barrier and an end of the experi
ment of a republican government looms up darkly
as the cost of a fatal concession.
4. Great Corpo atioiM : The rapid growth of cor
porate power, and the malign influence which it
exert* by combinations on National and stale Legis
latures is a well-grouuded case of alarm. A struggle
is impending in the near future between this over
grown power, with its I ant ramifications all over the
Union, and a bard : grip on much of the political
machinery on the one hand, and the people in an
unorganized condition on the other, for the control
of the Government. It will be watched by every
patriot with intense anxiety.
6. Civil Service : Neither the laws nor the com
missions created under them will effectually remove
the many and glaring abuses of the civil service.
The former have bee n constantly evaded, and the
latter are powerless for good. An honest Exec
utive, bent on real and not simi ated reform, has
abundant authority to make it effective everywhere
if he has Ihe capacity to see his duty and the cour
age to perform it. • - » ■ . . ■
1 6. Subsidies: Experience baa demonstrated that
; subsidies In any form are sources of corruption, and
ought to be forbidden. Private enterprises that de
pend for success upon legislation procured by venal
agencies do not deserve public favor.
6. Public Lands.— than (150,000,000, prin
cipal and interest, have been voted by Congress to
railroad corporations. The remaining lands should
be sacredly reserved for the cultivators of the soil,
so that the laboringman shall have a chance to im
prove his condition and open a future fur his chil
dren away from the reductions of great cities.
7 Revision of Tariff* : A tariff practically meant
taxation, and all taxation not equitably adjusted is
excessive. While the question of an oppressive
public debt, the pensions earned with the blood of
soldiers and . sailors who fought for the Union, and
the regular expenses of carrying on the Govern
ment are to be met, duties on imports must con
tinue to furnish one of the sources of revenue. So
lon/ as those duties a c levied manufacturers will
be benefited according to the degree in which the
levies are made. ) The existing tariff is regarded at
a confused macs of incongruities and monopolies,
created by special legislation, and open to constant
fraud on the revenues, ils taxes the consumer
heavily on those articles, especially, that are most
needed by the toiling masses. It taxes ever.- news
paper, cry school book, every Bible, and the salt
of the workingmen wiih gross injustice, because
the poor pretense of revenue does not exist to cover
the wrong*. A revision, therefore, which shall be
at once searching and fair it demanded and should
be promptly and efficiently made. ■ -
- 8. The Public Debt: The debt of the United
States in round numbers is $2,000,000,000, deducting
the hoarded ■ oin in the Treasury. ■ The interest
upon it last y ar was over (100,000,000. These arc
appalling figures. - 'I he rapid extinction of this debt
is to be desired, first, because it diminishes the pres
ent burden, and fur the additional reason that one
effect of a personal national debt U to create a pre
ferred c'ass to live on ' incomes and free from taxes
under our laws, having the protection of the Gov
ernment at home and abroad. They would own
tribute nothing to i s support. ■ : • . • . = -:
■- 9. Economy: It Is practicable, by co-oner tion
between the Ex cutlve and Cmgiess, to reduce the
pub ie expenditure many millions annually without
impairing tfce efficiency of tut public service. Be-

Tlir Labor Tr*al>le utOiaaha-End of the
Strike.
Omaha, May 23d.— Tkis afternoon a mass
meeting of the Omaha workiogmen was held
to discuss the labor question generally and
the Omaha Smelting Works strike in particu
lar. While the speeches were being made the
strikers withdrew from the crowd and held a
meeting elsewhere to disci™ a proposition
made to them the managers of the works
nt an arbitration conference in the morning,
at which Governor Yan«e was present. The
proposition was to make a compromise of
about live per cent, advance, common labor
era to get $1 oo for ten hoars work, the former
wages being $1 371 for nino hoars work. A
vote wan t- ken, and it was decided to accept
the proposition. The strikers returned to the
central meeting and reported the result, and
it was announced that they wauld go to work
to-morrow morning. This ends the strike,
and most of the Tvorkicgmca pre satisfied.
One of the conditions i-.vai.teil by the work
i:n;ii!cn was that the managers of the work*
should make no black lint.
