APPEAL TO THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS. July SM, 1880.

To the Union Soldiers and Sailers of the State of New York: It. was your fortune to oppose iuaurrectlon, and to save your country in the pains of rebellion. War summoned you to the ranks: its end saw you return to the Vocations of peace. But your work was not done. The enemy you had conquered in the flelu withstood you at the polls anil in three successive Presidential elections wiw your work in the war crowned with the uftlrmut lvo sullrage of the nation. A fourth election approaches, and effort is preparing to seize from you by deceit what other means have failed to reach. Your adversary is the same—the Democratic party. Its doctrines are the same—State rights and the Justification of secession and the rebellion hatred to the war hostility to Union soldiers and sailors opposition to their claims upoti their country for relief to themselves, their widows and orphans. You did not trust the Democratic party during the war. Which or its acts since the surrender of Appomattox renders it worthy of your trust now 1 Its desperate fortunes compelled Its nomination of a General of the Union army for the Presidency anew figure-head, but the same old hulk. A thousand Generals of the Union army received to its embraces could not palliate nor annul the terrors and bloodshed with which the Democratic party has unitized, and again sets in the field a Solid Houth against the patriotic volunteers of the peace-loving North. The struggle is again upon us. It is our country that calls. Let the name of no soldier or sailor le wanted upon the muster who marched or fought for the Union."

In the historic words of our great commander, "Push things!" YOUK COMLLADES IN AUMS.

A freight train on. the Vandalia road yesterday contained two engines for the Denver & ftio Grande Route.

An old lady got her valise mixed up with a drummer's baggage at the Union depot yesterday, and caused quite an excitement until the property was recovered.

Milk Paint.

Mix water lime with skim milk to apoly with brush, and it is ready for use. It will adhere well to wood, smooth or rough, to brick, mortar or stone, where }il has not been used, and is a very hard jabstanceas durable as the best oil paint, md does well for barns and sheds. Any solor may be had by using colors dissolved in whisky.

PAIJCT FOB FLOORS.—There is but one paint suitable for Soon, and that is French ocher. First, if the boards havo ahxunk. clean o«t the joints ^rell, and with a small bru»h give a heavy coat of boiled linseed oil, then putty up solid.

OMAHA, NEB., July 57.—Last night about nine o'clock the farm house of Daniel Solomon, attorney for the St. Louis, Wabash & Pacific Railway, ten miles south ef Hastings, Iowa, was the scene of an exciting encounter, ending in a tragedy. Mr. Solomon was absent at the time. The remainder of the family had retired for the night, when a noise was heard out side the dwelling, followed by the breaking in of two burglars. They were con fronted by Logan Solomon, son of Dan Solomon. A desperate encounter ensued, shots from a revolver in "the hands of one of the burglars being fiTed at young Solomon. who courageously grappled with his assailants. After a brief struggle he wrenched the revolver from the burglar's grip and shot him through the head, killing him instantly. The other burglar' made good his escape. The man who was shot proved to be a farm laborer named William Ford, who worked in the vicinity. Yesterday afternoon, in his father's! absence, the son had sold 2,500 bushels of corn, and received payment for it in cash. This fact, and the'elder Mr. Solomon's absence, it is supposed, were known to the burglafs, who accordingly determined to obtain the moiicy.

NEW YORK, July 27.—'The thirtieth day of Dr. Tanner's great fast began at noon to-day without the slightest sign of his breaking down. In fact, his ability to go supt was never shown so satisfactorily as to day. llo himself asserted that lie never felt better in his life, and that fasting had its periods of mental sprees as well as feasting.

Sympathizing ladies called upon him by the dozens and inquired after his health. He slept longer last night than usual between his cups, and arose at five o'clock, feeling very much refreshed from the night's rest.

Tanner took his usual drive to Central Park in the morning to have his demijohn filled. The drive lasted two hours, and he was somewhat fatigued when he reach ed his cot once more. He had another good sleep.

At half-past four o'clock this afternoon Dr. Tanner was on the floor of the hall where he has been holding his forty days' fast, promenading around atone moment, sitting down at another, and in tho best of spirits. "Why," said he, "it seems to mo that I could go twenty-five or thirty days more without distressing myself."

CABINET.

WASHINGTON, July 27. ceived at the Census Office the population of the Uni be a little over forty-nine of the back counties, particularly in the West, are panning ont handsomely. In New England and the South, where it was calculated the increase would be comparatively slight, the returns show larger gains than were anticipated. This is par ticularly the case in New England cities. New York has over five millions, Pennsylvania four and a quarter millions, Ohio about three and a quarter millions. The race between Ohio and Illinois for third place is very close. Illinois has greatly the advantage in having a larger tcrrito- $si rial extent, and can ultimately hold more people. It is probable, however, from#* the returns received that Ohio will hold third placc, although the official coup^ will be necessary to determine.
