The counting room will occupy No. 3D, the editorial rooms will take up the entire third floor and the composing room the fourth. The News is the first paper to occupy a ground floor room in the best business locality of the city in securing a permanent home, and it la believed the change will not only be convenient to all, bat profitable.

but very feV^arblind partisans in this country, who do not in their heart of hearts know that if freedom of political action existed in the sooth as it does today in the rorth, its ’'solidity” would not survive one election. The publication of the Hancock letter has aroused interest of another kind, and that is tha activity manifested among may officers in sounding the depths of the situation. Sherman feeling araund to find how hie officers stood, seems to strike in some quarters new as a sort of preliminary clearing of the field in case ef action. For one, wo* think a people cannot be too jealous of the sword arm of government. Divorce between Civil and military administration absolute and complete is the course of free government. There has been altogether too much union between the two in thin government, and direooufusioa is the result. Let ns have done with it. Military meh for the army, statesmen for civil life. We do not want to see the White Houae turned into a headquarters again. ’ Undoubted reports of a most revolting, murderous outrage peculiar to the southern states of this land of the free and home of the brave, come from Atlanta, Georgia. In revenge for having to pay a fine for mistreatment of an old negro man a year ago, a party of a dozen or more white men (heaven save the mark) visited the negro man’s house, shot his daughter through the head as she lay in bed, sbot his son after dragging him out doors and beating him, dragged the old man out and beat him barbarously, and served his old wife the same way. Then their "honah” was satisfied, and they left. Ten of the men have been arrested and taken to Atlanta to jail. Now mark the sequel. We predict not one of these will be punished for this thing,'unless a fine can be called punishment. There is nothing political attaching to this, but the significance of it is, the proof of the way the negroes are regarded by the ruling class in the south. One may well turn from the consequences of the democrats coming into control of the affairs of the whole country. These down trodden black people will not be crashed forever. Even a worm turns some times.

The much talked-of Hancock letter to Sherman proves to be a harmless document. There are two things in it, or implied by it, however, which in view of the general’s present position, are interesting. Speaking of a failure to agree upon the part of the senate and house as to whe was duly elected, he says the house must then proceed to choose a president: and the senate a vice[preaident. His notion of what would result then was Tilden for president and Wheeler for vice president, which would shows that he had no idea of either body rising above the level of partisanship, and that their actions were to be predicated upon their known political complexion and not upon the merits of the question involved. The other point is the inference from his assertion that the people wanted a peaceful determination of the matter, as fair a one as possible, and a lawful one. “No other dr termination,” he continues, “could stand the test. The country if not plunged into revolution would become poorer day by day; business would languish, and onr.bonds would come home to find a dispirited market.” Inasmuch as since the determination in favor of Hayes the country has not become poorer, business has not languished and »ur bonds have not come home to a dispirited market, if we square results by General Hancock’s standard, he was lawfully chosen, and that is a good square kick at the “fraud” hypocrisy which we are glad to see. The letter does not take sides in the presidency dispute, contains no expression of his own opinion, and, in short,

amounts to nothing. What Has Come ef It

When the democratic legislature ot 1871 reduced the state levy to five cents on a hundred dollars, and neglected to make any appropriation of the state debt sinking fond tax, which would yield about $600,000, The News tock the trouble to compare the probable revenues with the probable expenses, as exhibited in the administration of the'two preceding years, and found that the state would be compelled to borrow to make good an inevitable deficit of at least $500,000 in the two years till the legislature would meet again. The state treasurer at the time made an attempt to discredit our calculations by an exhibit of revenue, over his proper name, in letters to The News, but the event proved that we were right. The state had to borrow $200,000 at first, and soon after as much more, and then more still, till a debt of nearly a million had been contracted at an annual interest of $50,000. And all the time the “state debt tax" was pouring idle money into the treasury which would have paid everything if the democratic legislature had ordered it to be used. But they didn’t, and left that vast sum to do nothing but draw about 8 per cent, a year for the private pocket of the democratic state treasurer. It was a nice arrangement for him, but it wasn’t aocomfortable for the people who had to pay $40,000 or $50,000 a year interest on loans which this idle money would have saved, and all the time that idle money was paying the toeasnrer’s private puree about $40,000 a year. In other words the democratic legislature of 71 managed, with oonsumate skill and economy, to make the people pay $40,000 or $50,000 a year interest to Ike state treasurer to swell hi# private fortune. And the only cause under heaven was the failure of the legislature to make am ef the income of the state debt tax due then within a month after the adjournment. That income was left unappropriated, purposely, to accumulate a fund for the presidential contest of 137$, and to help the treasurer. The republicans had paid off the whole of the state debt that could he paid, and Gov. Baker had stopped intwist by proclamation in September yf 70,, an that the state debt tec, levied bf the

CPBBHMT OOMBUEHT. Not for a dozen years have so many persons been out ot town from New York, the Timee says. In the upper part of the city, it says, anywhere between Fourteenth and Fiftyninth street, and between Lexington and Sixth avenues, the contrast Is most marked. The immediate region of Park, Madison and Fifth avenues appears to be wholly deaerted. Entire blocks ef dwellings are closed, bolted, barred; the front doors of many are boarded up, and dark green curtains drawn closely down at the windows. “Sunday openings” in staid old England— pleas for the opening of museums, libraries, art galleries, etc ,on Sunday have not ao much support as thought; a movement in the matter In parliament showed that there Iras but one petition with but one signer in favor of it, and in opposition there were over 300 petitions with 68,090 signers. In 1872 a similar motion was supported by 6,054 signers of 56 petitions^ and opposed by 129,560 signers and 647 petitions. In 1877 there were 9,698 petitioners for and 141,505 against Sunday opening, aad the majority In the bouse in the negative was 142. Britain still stands by the belief that tha law shall recognize Sunday, The free ice water fountains established in Not York as frequently mentioned in these columns, are the means of very materially reducing the business of saloons in the neighborhood. This aspect of the movement was suggested ta some temperance folk of Boston^ the fearibility of it as a factor in reducing drunkennees. It is recalled that a similar result baa been noticed in Boston, on the Fourth of July, when free ice water is dispensed at various points on the Common, thus preventing an untold amount of liquor drink* ing and consequent drunkenness. At the recent industrial exhibition in Belgium eighty-four different kinds of beer were offered. Beer is tbere called the poor man’s bread. It is said that by the presence of gluccse, dextrine and alcohol it produces warmth, by its albuminous products it repairs waste, and by its mineral.quairty, notably the phoe; hates, it gives bone and brain. It is wonderfully cheap, two cents a pint, asd each year enough is drank to make 280 imperial pints for every man, woman and child in the kingdom. A slight tax imposed upon the breweries yields a revenue for the government of about 15,000,000 francs annually. Up to this time tbere have been issued in this ooaatry 236,386 patents for inventions. In this aumher are not included reissues, designs, trade-marks and labels. Some years ago an estimate was made that the value of each patent averaged about $10,600. One authority now declares that about one-fourth of the patents now issued are valuable, while another declares that not one in two hundred pays for the cost of taking them out; There is this other consideration; No one knows what financial policy would be adopted by the new administration, nor what departures it would make from a nolicy that has been pursued to the infinite benefit of all the legitimate business Interests of the country. Add this uncertainty to the certainty of an influx into all departments of the government of a hoide of new and untried men, huigry for office and spoils, with the idea topmost in their minds that money must be made while the opportunity tests, and we put it to business men whether the change proposed is not as perilous an experiment as was ever made by a civilized people.—[Cincinnati Commercial. How quietly the presidential fight drags on! The quieter the better.—[Detroit News. The significance of the large meeting held by the democrats in this city last night lies in two things. In the first place, Mr. Tilden was Ihe central figure in the affair. U renewed and reaffirmed the defeat aod humiliation of Tammany halL The very name of that faction was received with hisses, it was left out in the preparations for the meeting and in its proceedings, and Mr. Kelly and his followers were again distinctly told that they' are to have no part in the conduct of the caavas.—[New Yora Evening Post, The fatal feature in the democratic situation is that, no matter whatm&v be inscribed on platforms, no matter what legends transparencies may bear, no matter what mass meeting resolutions may declare, no matter wbat eloquent speakers may say, no matter bow profuse promises may be put forth, the party is compelled to confront a dismal story of its incapacity, treachery, neglect and broken pledges, in respect to all the important living questions of the day.—[New York Evening Post.

Yen act on yonr own re«ponaifeH!fy and by virtue of a coin minion, only restricted by tbs law of tbe land. The aeeretary of war la the mouthpWoe of tbe prealdent; yon are not. If neither candidate baa a constitutional majority of tba electoral college, or tbe senate or houae, on tbe occasion of tbe count, do unite ta declaring tome persona legally elected by the people, there la lawlnl machinery already provided to meat that comtageney and decide tbe question peaoeab'y. It baa not been recently used, no occasion prefuting itself, but our forefathers provided IU It has been exeiciacd, and baa been recognized and submitted to aa lawful on every hafid. That machinery would probably elect Mr. Tilden president, and Mr. Wheeler vice pmldent. That would be right enough, lor tbe law provides that tn a failure to elect duly by the people, the houae a hall immediately elect the prealdent, and the senate the vice president. Borne tribunal must decide whether the people have duly elected a prealdent. I presume, of course, that it la ta the joint affirmative action of the senate and boats, or why are they present to wi neea tbe count, If not to aee that It is fair and justf If a failure to agree ariaes between tbe two bodies, tbere can be no lawful affirmative peaaan that the people have elected a president, and the house must then proceed to act, not the senate. The senate electa vice presidents, not president-. Doubtleva, ta a cate of failure by tha bouse to elect a president by tbe fourth of March the president of the senate, if tbere be one, would be the legitimate person to ' exercise the p re tide Ltlal authority for tha time being, or until tbe appearance of a lawful president, or for the time laid down ta tbe cooititution. Such courses would be pearefnl, and, I have a firm belief, lawful. I have ao doubt Governor Hayre would make an excellent president, i have met him and know of him. For a brief period he served under my command, but aa tbe matter atanda I can’t tee any liaellhcod of bb being duly elected by the people unless the senate and bouse come to be ta aceoni as to that fact, and tne houae would, of course, not otherwise elect blur. What the people want la a peaceful termination of this matter, aa fair a determination aa possible, and a lawful one. Mo other determination could stand the tost. The country, If not plnoud Into revolution, would become poorer day by day. Business wou d languish, and our bonds would come home to find a dispirited market. I was not ta favrr nf the military ta South Oarolica rvc-cUy, and If General Roger had telegraphed to me, or asked for advice, 1 would have adviad

have given him better advice than refer him to tbe special nn ssape of tbe president ta the case of Ltuirian*, acme time before. But ta South Caro lira he bad the question settled by a decision of the supn me court of the state, the highest tribunal which bad acted oa the question, ao that his line of duty aremed even to ba clearer than in the action in the Louieiaaa case. If the federal coart bad interfered and overruled the decision of the htate court, there might have been a double certainty ;but thefedenu court Interfered to complicate i ot to decideor © erru e. Anyhow, It la no buitbesa of the army to enter upon such questions, and even IX it might be so In any event, if the civil authority is supreme, aa the constitution declares it to be, tbe Sontb Carolina case waa one ta which the army bad a plain duty. Had General Huger asked me for advice, and If I had given it I should, qf course, have nou&ed you of my sciion at once, co that it could have barn promptly overruled, if It should have been deemed advisable by you or any superior ta authoritv. General Huger did not ask for my adviee, and I inferred from that and other facu that be did not desire It, or that, being ta diieet communication with hia military ruperiort at tbe teat of government, whe were marer to him tn rime asd distance than I waa, ha -defined it unnectasary.

History ef the Groat Kastom. The Great Eastern steamship, now

The Great Eastern steamship, now being refitted for the live cattle trade, was designed to trade with India, and was planned by Brusel and Scott Russell in 1851. The dececdauts of James Watt built her engines. Her coni traction (of iron plates) was begun in 1854. She was designed for 4,000 passengers, 806 first-class and a crew of 400. Her paddles and screw give 11,600 boree-power. She spreads,*, umder fall sail, 6.500 square yards of canvass. She is 692 feet long, 83 feet wide, $8 feet deep, 12,600 tons weight and draws 30 feet ef water laden. She wai launched in 1857, and it took three months to launch her, at a cost of $606,600 for the launching alone. She was sold unfinished for $800,000 to a new company in 1859, and equipped for $760,000 more. She left toe Thames for sea in September of that year, and killed six men by an explosion. In June, 1860, she croaeed the Atlantic from Southampton in 11 days, with 36 passengers. Spending $260,600 more upon her, tbe directors started her to New York with 166 passengers in May, 1861, and she bnrned about 236 tons of coal a day. Ths British government engaged her to carry trops to fight the United States, and ebe went to Quebec. She next took 400 pessesgers and bad to put back. That closed ber career, except for cable laying in 1865, when she was chartered lor $5,600 a month, without crew. She has since laid five other cables. She has bees a loss of $5,060,000.

Tha Velaclty of Light.

Prof. Newcomb is at Fort Whipple, near Washington, experimenting with the velocity of light. Tbe distinctive feature of this method is faur-sided revolving mirror erectid upon iron pillars, and revolving at from 150 to 250 revolutions per second. The light, reflected from an ordinary mirror outside, is forced through a tube, strikes the revolving mirror, and is reflected acroes the Potomac river, a distance of two miles, where it strikes a mirror on Observatory bilL It is reflected kack again, and the point upon which it strikes is noted by a telescope attached to a graduated scale. By this means the exact time is easily secured, and arrangements are nuking by which the velocity can be noted

at a mnch greater distance.
