A DISPATCH from Vienna reports that the Vice President of the Bulgarian Com mittee is now in Belgrade, to negotiate an offensive and defensiv6 alliance between Bulgaria and Servia.
Policemen Reolink did a noble deed jn saving the life of the crippled man at 4he fir© Saturday night. It was an act which will be remembered by all our people.
A DISPATCH from Gibraltar says the British steamer Harter, from Hong Kong, May 8th, for New York, has been in col lisioja with an Italian bark, in-wljch the latter was sunk. The crew of we bark were saved.
The speech of Ared F. White is said by many to have been the best delivered in the city for years.
Can't we get Ared and John Exodus into a joint discussion at the Wigwam, before long? They are both Presidential Electors, and we would like to see them make the political fur fly.
HANCOCK.
Hancock is said to be an expert as a deployer of skirmishers, and is away in advance of the tactics. One would think so after reading his letter of acceptance. He most certainly don't expect a flank movement* so well has he fortified the front.
THE DEATH TRAP.
Suppose that on last Saturday night there h&d been an entertainment at the Opera llkmse and suppose that the fire had been about two hours earlier what Would jr&ve been the effect
WyVenture to say that this city would flraped in mourning to-day, for the hundreds of men, women and children who would have been killed and maimed in the stampede. No one can imagine the consternation with which an audience would be seized with such a lire, in such proximity as that was on Saturday night. .Men

Afte# all it seems that WilUant.lt. English hashad some trouble amteiing the great wealth which is reputed to hirii.
It is said that he is worth about f1,000,000 and that as .chainnan of the State Central Committee, he will come out of the campaign with abour f10,000 added to this amount from campaign funds. He is as unscrupulus in his dealings with other men as it is possible to be. In regard to his sale of the Citizens Street Railway about four years ago an exchange says that in making the sale Mr. English ostensibly turned over everything, but purchasers, after slight investigation, came to the cpnclusion that he was withholding a part of the assets of the company to which they were entitled by purchase. They asked him for the books, papers memoranda, of the company, which he withheld, in order to know exactly what they had been deprived of by his sequestration. He declined to do so, claiming the documents as his private property. Finally, by legal pressure, he was brought to relinquish the books, accounts and papers in question. When, having secured these, an investigation was made, which result ed in showing that Mr. English had concealed a large amount of property which belonged to the purchasers. Tom. L. Johnson, treasurer of the Citizens' Street Railway Company, then, through the Company's attorneys, brought suit against Mr. English, the complaint being filed in the Superior Court on the 18th day of October, 1677. The complaint charged that the defendant (English) was indebted to the plaintiff "in the sum of $10,000 for money he had received for the Citizens' Street Railway Company in the sum of $10,000 for money lent and advanced to defendant by plaintiff at defendant's request, and in the sum of $10,000 for so much money found to be due from defendant to plaintiff on an account stated between them, all of which sums are due and remain unpaid. Plaintiff further states that the defendant (William II. English) did unlawfully and wrongfully take and convert to his own use $40,000 of the mortgage bonds of the plaintiff, valued at $40,000, and%y so doing became liable to pay the plaintiff tho, value of the said bonds, viz.: $40,000." The following bill of particulars was appended: 1874. Money had and received by defendant (Wm. II. English) for plaintiff (Citizens' Street Railway Company), and converted by defendant to his own use, in June and July, 1874, $6,848.20. The above is the aggregate, and as it is taken from defendant's books, or the cash account of the company kept under his direction, the dates cannot be now specifically set forth.
Bonds converted by defendant (Wm. H. English): November 10, 1875, ten secondmortgage bonds of $500 May 1876, nine second-mortgage bonds of $500 prior to May 12, 1878, the exact date can not be given sixty first-mortgage bonds of $500.
On the 18tii day of October the case was assigned to room No. 4, Superior Court October 28d it was reassigned to room No. 1 November 6th a motion was made for anew bill of particulars, which was filed and sustained and ruled to answer November 24th the case was dismissed by plaintiff, Mr. English having saved further cost by yielding to the inevitable and disgorging.
Of course tho company, having gotten their own, did not care to pursue the matter any further, and so it has lain until now, when Mr. English wants honest men to vote for him.
WHO IS TO BLAME.
In rega|d to the fire last Saturday night the public now demand the ^reason why the water works and fire department made such an egregrious failure in not saving the life of JohnBodine, if not those build ings.
The statement of the water works that the pressure was* to great, and that it caused the bursting of one of mains will not be accepted by our people as a plausible reason of absence of water. We are very much inclined to believe that the cause of the "bursting" will be found in tho negligence of the gentlemen in not cleaning their plugs of the mud and sand which necessarily accumulates after each rise in the river.
And as for the fire department not having out their engine we can only say such neglect of duty and incompetency merits the disgust with which the public now look upon it,
The idea of sending a man. on horseback to waken the firemen and have them take the engine to afire in the city of Terre Haute, is about the grandest exhibition of total depravity of which we dan imagine. We now call upon the X§lJ tJ&uncil to investigate this matter and act accordingly, If

General Hancock should be electe lie would prub&bly hare a Cabinet, it is likely that a good many new af polntments to office would oe Madeyery likely. It would be interestin then tq tee the Hanoock rflati of rtamin a Government, as embodied in th General' extraordinary communicatio to General Sherman in 1877, pat Int operation on' a large scale. The reade will hardly have forgotten that tfaJ plan involved, not the subordination the military to the civil power, but th subordination of all power to subord nates, including the right of a Majoi General to start a revolution when£h one of his political friends calls on for troops, and to give his superlo notice that he will obey them or not, he pleases. The Tribune, with th: prophetic eye which is.to be fo among the apparatus of every first-c newspaper, is able to lay before readers specimens of the official co: spondence which would take place General Hancock should be elected:
Secretary of War William F. Smiti forwards to President Hancock the fol lowing dispatch from Major-Genera Boum: "Have just received your order to procee against the Sioux with all possible haste. It due to you that you should be apprised what my position is In this matter. I will thereto# say that I consider it much easier not to anything' of the kind, and that I propose stay.where I am. For precedents sustain!: my course consult President Hancock. 1 knows how it is himself. Ta-ta. Yours,
Major-Genkrax Boum."f
"But this is not a circumstance to thie following letter, written by Attornej General Jeremiah S. Black to the Hon^ Morrison R. Waite, Chief Justice o: the Supreme Court:
I have observed your decision in the cas of Smith ayainst Brown. It 2s due to yoj that vou should fte apprised what my positiol is in "this matter. I will therefore say that consider the decision bid law. :ind want it r$ yoked at once. It ups 'ts half a dozen of m. opinions, and is confoundedly inconvenient Please read up a little more carefully on opinions."
This is enough to make President Hancock himself stare, but what will he say when he sees one of his overzealous imitators writing as follows to the Chairman of the Appropriation? Committee of the, House of Reprq sentatives:
DEAR SIH: I see that Congress, following
KOing ury for the monoy, and .Secretary Wallade will pay it. Ho and I have had a little dicker the subject. Yours,
Wir.r,t AM H. BARNUM, Postmaster-General.
The following, from Secretary o| State John Kelly, addressed to Si£ Edward Thornton, British Ministeii explains itself: "DEAR SIR: What you say abdUt thi Treaty of Washington amuses me. We aron keeping treaties much now. We're running this Government on the Hancock plan, whice means that all of us can do what we darfc choose. Receive, sir, the assurances, etc. "John Kklly, Secretary of State."
P. S.—The Tribune's prophetic eyf tlso clearly discerns that General Haii cock will not be elected. But th| moral is just the same.—N. ufie.
An increase of general agricultural exports of 600 per cent. An increase in exports of bread and breadstuff's of 650 per cent.
An increase of exports of manufactured articles of 225 per cent. An increase of internal commerce of 700 per cent.
An increase of railway mileage of 187 per cent. In 1860, after twenty years of Democratic rule, Congress authorized a loan of $25,000,000 to pay current expenses.
In 1880, after twenty years of Republican rule, the Secretary of the Treasury pays $85,000,000 oi debt contracted for a war brought on by a solid Democratic South, which now wants power again so as to stop the wavi*g of that bloody shirt, the wearing of which is Hancock's chief glory and his whole available stock as a candidate for the Presidency.
In 1860, after twenty years of Democratic rule, the balance of trade against the country was over $20,000,000.
On May 31, 1880, after twenty years of Republican rule, the balance of trade was over $162^)00,000 in favor of this country.
In 1860, after twenty years of Democratic rule and teaching, there was very serious question whether we had any Nation, and the old public functionary in the White House, whose chief adviser was Jere Black, the man who now furnishes the statesmanship for General Hancock, announced that there was no power in the Government to coerce a State," leaving the inference that Jeff Davis and Alec Stephens could send the country to the demnition bow-wows for all he could do to prevent it. After twenty years of Republican rule there is no doubt that we havea country, and Alec Stephens and Jere Black 'would give all they are worth to have the people forget that they ever questioned it.
Hie Kind of ruin which five successive Republican Administrations have indicted upon the country is just a little striking in view of the figures, and the people like it and call for more of the same sortJand are bound to have it, too.— Washington (D. C.) Republican.

The Way the Republican Party Ruined tlie Country.
The Democratic orators and editors are trying to make out that the Republicans have ruined the country. les and this is the way it was done
In 1860, after twenty years of Democratic rule, a Government six per cent, bond sold for eighty-nine cents.
In 1880, after twenty years of Republican rule, a Government four per cent, bond sells for $1.08.
In 1860, after twenty years of Demo-, cratic rule, a loan of $18,000,000 exhausted the market for six months.
At the end of twenty years of Republican rule a loan of $150,000,000 was taken in a single day.
In twenty years of Republican rule we find All increase of population of fifty per cent.
