TIHE NiBW PAPER, WITAT PRRAY SMITIE 8AYS, For gomo time past there have been yumors abrond that the Democracy was golng to ave a brand-new mouthploce i the shape of a simon. pure, unadaiterated paper of that stripe of politics. An this runior reaches general elreula- tion about twlee a year regulnety, but lttle no- tea of it was taken, But witbln a day or two the ramors have bheen wore to the points In- stead ol mere conjectures by unknown parties, certaln statoments have been made it there was to be a new 2-cent morning dally, the poli- tles of which were to be Democratie, Further- moro, that the partics Interested were Abram Haowitt, of New York, Samuel J. Tilden, Clarkson N, Potter, ten. Georps B. Smith, of Madison, Wis, Proctor Koott, of Duluth, Miun, Carter 1L Harrison, Perey H, 8mith, and Melville W, Fuller, of this city, Other persons were mentioned fn con- nection therawith, but not adthoritatively, This coneeryt was to boa stock company, of which Perry IT, Stoith was to be President und Manton Marblo to be cditor-in-chief, The statement was {urther supplomented with the alleged fact that Perry I Smiith was to _put 800,000 fnto thulcuucnrn, whigh Mnnton Marble was to con- rol. ~ 1n order to et at the facts of the case, n TrinuNy reporter last evening catled upon Mr, Perry 1. 8mith {n rexord to the matter, Ho was found at his marble mansfon, vorner’ of Iuron awd Pino strects, e recelved the re- -porter with bLecomlng soclabllity, ond, in re- BPOISC 10 1 question, said, ** 1 know absolutely notliing about this thing.” “ Haa there been no attempt, then, to start o new Domoeratie paper!’ asked tho reporter. Not that { know of,** responded Mr, Sinith. I hiave heretofors been approached upon the subject, but as loug as the Democracy of this ‘-Il,\,' 13 us 1t I8, I ¢nre to have nothlug to do with 1. The reporter told Ar. Smith of the rumors above mentloned, “'Therats no truth in them, sald Mr, Smith, ‘¢ But vou have been asked to go into a new newsoaper ' “ Yes, t have Leen asked to buy the old Poat pressright, but T wanted nothing to do with that. So far us Mr, George B, 8mith {3 con- cerued, T don's think he hos anythingto do with it. T bulieve agooll puper would pay, but I don’t think Mauton Marble could be induced to ssttle here. If he coutd, that would b another thing.” And then Mr. Smith drifted into other subjects, und would have nothing more to say upon the nowspaper subject. DAMAGED MEATS. LOOKING UP THE SUBJECT. Yestordoy's Trinuse contained the toxt of a long Ietter from the United States Consut at Bruasscls to tho State Department at Wasulng- ton, complalning that the exporters of Ameriean groin and provisious were not sending faall cases goods up to the standard, and that no little trouble and Inconvemience wera expe- rienced by the Contincntal dealers fn these artf- cles. In the afternoon a reporter for this paper vislted the Open Board, where ho met o numbor of the packers uud exporters of provisions. After asking them it 'they had read the Brussols Consular letter, to which they replied in the af- firmative, he inquired if the charges wero true. They Lad heard of two or threo lots of provisions that had gone to Antwerp and did not turn out well, but, when they catne 1o nnke an investi- gatlon, it was found that the goods were not orlginally of standard, out of rccond, quality, and as such wero purchosed hero und shipped abroad. At notime this year have any reclamn- tions beew made by cither English or Continon- tal buyerson anygoods which they have purchased a8 being standard. ‘I'e packers think too much of their reputation and the reputatiou of their bLrands to permit _onything of the Klud, ‘They could not afford” to doeo. ‘The goods comblained of were No. 3 or rejected, and'were purchased by a specutator at fizures 50 low as to warrant bimn in making the venture. They reached Antwerp durlug a firm market, and were readily disvosed of by the parties to whom they were consiizned, nnd who kaew cxactly the character of the projierty. Had there been o declining market the chances aro ten to one that the transaction would have netted o loss fnstead of n profit. Some .tHonths aco o oprominent houeo shipped u lnrku, lot of rajected shoulders to the some port. ‘They arrived during an ad- vanc.ng market, tho | consignees sceepled the pruperty, and_alt nj}'t(cs, it s maid, mado a arge profit, The stdindard brands of Chicago pork, lard, bacom, aond hams are a8 well known {n Antwyerp and Brussels as they are in New York, upd i the consumer hos the sense to ask 'for them and noth- Ing olse lie .will experionce no difilcalty - in oltafuing them. One house alone has shipped during Lhe past three mouths over 100,000 hams of staudurd bramd to Belglum, mifl has never re- colved a complaint. 1 relation to the graln trade the samo stato of things exists. Indlana cornand wheat pur- chased tn this warket nccording to grade amd Jnspection, for export to Antwerp, has in_every case turned out exactly what it purported to te, Mixed lots purchased in Now York have not turned ont o well.

Looking up ot the face near biers, and putting up her little hands, sho frequently called " Mauuna,” the only word that sho could sveak distinetly, Thoe clothes that shie wore when drawn ashore in the arms of the second-mate, In the buoy, had been chaoged for dry garments, and, with the excep- tlon of the wistful look that somctimes np- peared in her eyes, there was nothing to dis- tinguish her from nore fortunate chbildren. In the inner oflice at 66 South strect at the same time sat the man who saved her and tho other three men who swere rescucd. They cdmo in the morning from the wreck, bringing the bodies of Capt.

The wind was fresh from the southwest, und the vessol was going about elght knots an hour, At about 23{ 0. m. on Wednesday he awoke, und heard Barnegat light reported, snd the Caps tain's orders to chango tho course to north by east. About twenty minutealatter b heard the grating of tho vessel on the bar, All hands wore on dock Inmedlately alterward, Only Mrs. Sawyer, with hor child, stald below. The schooner was liead on thebar, and her bottom was broken fn. A red light on the shore was scen soon after she struck, ‘The ofter sails were Jowered fu cffurts to Lack the vessel off, and, after all attenints bad falled, three rockets were sent up as siznals of distress, ‘The sen bepan to breale over the steru and the port quarter, and Capt, 8awyer then told the men to try aue save themselves. ** 1l atick to her to the fost,” hie sald, * I'clersson, you save iy wife and my child.” The Captaln helped his wifo out of the cabin, and Petersson took the clld in hils arms and went with ber to the top of the cabin, The ¢l sveot to the top of the torward house, That wasat about & o’clock in the morning,” Petersson sald, *‘liere waa then bo ueceasity for lusbing ourselyes, At daybreak wo saw two men near two buats on the beach, about 130 yurds from us, 'They scemed to be getting something ready, Wa sung out to them, hut they did not hear us, I guess.
