A reporter of THE Stax to-day interviewed Col. Lee Crandall, member of the national greenback committee of the District of Columbia, in relation to a publication in the Montgome- Ty (Ala.) News-Item, which recited an alleged al- Mance between the greenback and republican national committees, and the charge set forth, With a great deal of specific detail, that General Weaver was co-operating with the republicans to defeat Hancock. Colonel Crandall, in vigor- ous English, denied, in tot il and sing- ular such charge. Said he: “This is gotten up to affect the state election in Ala- bama, which takes place ~ We have no alliance with any party, In Ala- bama, If we could get a fair count, we could elect our state ticket. While J was in Alabama, the statement was boldly made that we (the greenbackers) might ey the largest vote; that Uhe democrats would outcount us. In Lowe's Congressional district,” continued Crandall, “we will have a big majority, but in the Black belt country the democrats will wait to see what Majority they have to overcome. and will then go abead with their counting process.” Mr. Crandall denied that there was to be a confer- ence between the greenbackers and Agia on the 9th of the present month, as been alleged. ‘The following extract, from a letter from Mr. Weaver to Col. Crandall, contains an explicit denial of the allegations, it will be seen: WHEELING, W. Va., July 31st, 1850, Colonel Crandall, Secrelary Nation Executive Committee : Sir:—You are authorized by me to pronounce statement contained in to-day’s Cincinnatl i purporting to come from one W. M. v , a3 wiltully and corruptly false. I first met Mr. Edwardy at Birmingham, Ala., where he had come to attend my Loe He professed to be a greenbacker, but satd he was compelled to keep the democrate ticket at the head of bis columns from fear of social ostra- cism, and under threat from the business men of Montgomery that if he did not do so they would withdraw their support. He wanted aid, he said, for his paper. ‘Thought $50) would en- able him to weather it through. I told himT could not give him an answer until I coasulted With Colonel Lowe and the stale greenback com- Inittee, and would see him at Montgomery. When I reached that place | told him that I had no information; had heard nothing from the committee, and could do nothing for him I Was informed, immediately upon my arrival in Montgomery, not to rely upon Mr. Edwardy in the least. That he was a small man and wholly unreliable. That I ever told him that the electo- Tal Ucket was to be divided between the repub- licans and greenbackers 1s wholly and wiltully false, as are also the statements that the repud iican and greenback executive committeesare in consultation, are to have a meeting at Chicago, and are contributing to the expenses of my cam- paign. He wrote the dispatch he speaks of him- Self, read it over to me, and then sent it to the New York Times and the Chicago Times, one a Tepublican and the other a democratic paper. Mr. Edwardy’s flimsy falseho.d contains six items. They are all corruptly false. Very respectfully, J. B. WEAVER, Pay of Government Employes on National Holidays. OPINION OF FIRST CONTROLLER LAWRENCE. First Controller Lawrence has made an opin- fon touching the pay of the employés of the Goverbment Printing Office on national holt- days. He says: “If we adhere to the strict letter of the resolution, and applying it to the subject of you inquiries it only declares the 4th day of July a holiday, and proceeds that certain employés of the Government Printing Office sball be paid for (us holiday when the Iike em- Lapke of other government departments shall so paid. The employés of other departments Were hot so paid for that day. The resolution ces not in terms provide that in case the 4th of duly shall fall on Sunday that another day may be substituted instead of it. ut there is a maxim applicable to the con- 8 Tuctton of statutes qué Meret in litera, haeret in cortice, The mere letter must yield to the intention ot the Jaw making power, In the construction of statutes tt Is permitted to look outside of the statute to learn the pre- vious state of the law and the mischtefs which the statute was passed to obviate. And where a statute is applicable only to a particular place, doubtful words may be construed wit reference to the usage of that place. * * * There had been a usagein the Government Printing Office for many years by which holl- days were observed and the employé3 patd as it they had rendered service, andift a holiday fall on Sunday the next day was ol ed and empioyés paid therefor. Thus the 4th was on Sunday in 1569 and 1 Was on Sunday in 1865, ad case the next day was observed and paid for. ‘This usage was subsequently discontinued by the present management of the Government Printing Office. The other departments of the government for many years observed and con- nue to observe the usage which had prevailed in the Government Printing Office. The dis- continuance of the fe in the Government Printing Office left the employes therein less favored than those of other departments. The object of the statute was to piace on the same footing and give like advantages to all rendering service in like manner. The evident design was that no distinction should be made op account of the place of service. Without this construction the equity of the resolution in some measure fails. The employes of the Government Printing Office who do not receive annual salaries, or salaries fixed upon the basis of annual salaries, are therefore enutled to pay for the holiday observed as the 4th ot July in the same manner as employes similarly sit- uated in other department FRIGHTFUL COLLISION OF RAILROAD TRAINS. ‘The 9:05 train on the Long Island railroad from Long Beach last evening reached Jamaica at 9:35 on time, ard four of the coaches were ‘Switched off for Flatbush avenue, Brooklyn, the other cars going to Hunter's Potnt. The train for Brooklyn started immediately, and had just passed Smythe’s, near Morris Grove, about one inlle west of Jamaica, when it ran tnto the 9:05 train fom. pee going east. Both trains were running ata igh rate of speed, and the shock was terrific. Its force was so great that, the engine of the eastward-bound train was turned almost completely around and headed west, and both engines were completely demol- ished. Oldratiroad men say that they never before saw such a wreck. The t exception of the platiorms, were on! Gamaged. The eastern train engineer, Walcott, brother of the engineer of the western twain, was injured so badly that he died shortly after, being taken from under his engine. Con- ductor Samuel Allen, of the eastern train, had his ribs broken and is injured internally. Brakeman Wm. McDonough received a bad scalp wound. Jas. and va of 16th street, New York, were injured, Mrs, Eagan re- ceiving a bad wound in the face. Mr. Eagan bad his shoulder dislocated. The train from Brooklyn was a local train and it started late and bad no lights. It should have remained at y Haven until the Long Beach train reached there. Several of the women onthe Long Beach train were b: and cut. & a assengers ly bruised MARRIAGE OF MRS.

S76, Touching the presidency, Gen. H. ie whole matter of the presidency to me tobe simple and to admit of a peaceful solution. The machinery for such a Eon aed as threatens to present {itself has been all carefully prepared. It oniy requires lubricaticn, owing to disuse. The army should have nothing to do with the election or a Tation of Presidents. The ple elect the resident. The Congress declares in a joint Session who he is. We of the army have only to obey his mandates, and are protected in so doing only so far as they ma} lawful. Our commissions express that. I like Jefferson's way of inauguration; it suits our system. He rode alone on horseback to the capitol, (I fear it was the “Old Capitol,”) tled his horse toa rail fence, entered, and was duly sworn, then rode to the executive mansion and took possession. He tnaugurated himself sim- ply by taking the oath of office. Theres no Other legal inauguration in our system. The people or politicians may institute parades in jonor of the event, and public officials may add to the pageant by assembling troops and bap- bers; but all that only comes propey. after the inauguration—not before—and it is not a part of it. Our system does not provide that one President should inaugurate another. There might be danger tn that, and it was studiously JefUout of the charter. But you are placed tn an exceptionally important sition in coni®c- ton with coming events. The capital 1s in my jurisdiction also, but 1 am a subordinate, and hot on the spot; and if I were, so also would be iy superior in authority, for there fs the statton of the general-in-chief. On the principle that a Tegularly-elected President’s term of office ex- pires with the 3d of March (of which [ have not the slightest doubt), and which the laws bear- ing on the subject uniformly ri nize, and in consideration of the possibility that the law- tully-elected President may not appear until the 5th of Mareh, a great deal of responsibility may necessarily (al upon you, The Secretary of War, too, probably holds over; but if no Presi- dent appears he may not be able to exercise functions in the name of a President, for h's peer acts are those of a known suptrior—a lawful President. You act on your own responsibility and by virtue of.a commission, only restricted by the law. ‘The Secretary of War Is the mouth-piece of a President. You are not. If neither candi- date has a constitutional majority of the electo- ral college, or the Senate and House, on the occasion of the count, do not unite in declaring some person legally elected by the people, there 15 a lawful machinery already provided to meet that contingency and decide the ques- tion peacefully. It has not been recently used, no occasion _proeenting itself, but our forefathers provided it. It has been exercised ard has been recognized and submitted to as lawful on every hand. ‘That, machinery would robably elect Mr. Tilden President and Mr. heeler Vice President. That would be right enough, for the law provides that in a fallure to elect duly by the ple the House shall Immediately elect the President and the Senate the Vice ident. Some tribunal must decide whether the people have duly elected a President. I presume, of course, that it is in the ee afirmative action of the Senate and the House, or why are they present to witness the count if not to see that it is fair and just? If a failure to agree arises between the two bodies there can be no lawful affirmative decision thatthe people have elected a President and the House must then proceed to act—not the Senate. The Senate elects Vice Presidents, not Presidents. Doubtless in case of a fatlure by the House to elect a President by the 4th of March the President of the Senate (if there be one) would be the legitimate person to exer- cise presidential authority for the time being, or until the appearance of 8 lawful President,or for the time laid down in the constitution. Such courses would be peaceful and, I have a firm belief, lawful. I have no doubt Governor Hayes would make an excellent President. I have met him and know of him. For a brief period he served under my command; but, as the matter stands. I can’t see any Mkelihood of his being duly declared elected by the people, unless the Senate and House come to be tn accord as to that fact, and the House would, of course, not otherwise elect him. What the people want 1s a peaceful determination of this matter—as fair a determination as possible and a lawful one. No other determination could stand the test. ‘The country, if not plunged into revolution, would become poorer day by day; busines; would languish, and our bonds would come home to find a depressed market. DR. TANNER at noon yesterday entered on the thirty-fifth day of his fast. He slept weil Sat urday night. and appeared refreshed yesterday morning. He was attacked with nausea and vomiting at different periods during the day, throwing up a mixture of bile and mucus. At 2:45 p. m. his pulse was found to be 75, temper- ature 98.4, and the dynamometer marked 82. At 2:55 he got up to put on his clothes, but was unable to do so, owing to an attack of vomiting. At 7:35 and $:40 last evening he also had attacks of vomiting, and ac 9 p. m. he retired to his cot and appeared to be sleeping. His medical at- tendants said he was in a feebler condition than yesterday; that the attacks of nausea were un- favorable, and as they occurred after drinking @ smpall quantity of fluid, it showed the doctor's stomach to bein a highly irritated condition. One of the physicians said Dr. Tanner was fall- ing every day, but there was no doubt he would finish his self-im) task. He thought the frequent attacks of vomiting showed that the coats of his Stomach were somewhat inflamed. Dr. Tanner took nothing yesterday but a little carbonated ice water. The New York Herald ot yesterday quotes Dr. Tanner as saying that he intends “‘to take three square meals every day during the remainder of bis Mfetime when the forty days are up,” mole the Hrraid regards as a sensible conclu- sion. FIRE AT WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS—Mr. W. W. Corcoran’s Horses Burned,—A tire broke out at 2 ovclock yesterday morning in the loft of the stable belonging to the White Sulphur Springs Company at Greenbrier, White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., located a quarter of a mile from the hotel and cottages, and spread so rapidly, the lott being full of hay, that the building was entirely destroyed and forty-four horses were burned to death in a short time, Twenty of the horses belonged to the company and twenty- four were owned by the guests, some of them being very valuable. The ges were all saved and great efforts were made to rescue the poo animals, but they became so frantic and kicked so furiously that the most coach- men, hostlers and others present were unable to Save their pets. The stable was a frame one of little value and not insured. Of the most valuable horses belonging to the guests Mr. Coreoran lost th Gov. Mathews one, Prot. Devere one, Mr. in four, Gen. Ander- son two, Dr. Moorman one, Mr. Delaplain two, Mr. Ford two, and Mr. Montague, of Balti more, one. The loss by the fire 15 estimated at THE GEORGIA MURDERS.—Gov.° Colquitt, of Ga., went to Jonesboro’ Saturday night with: the Gate City Guard, of Atlanta, to prevent any attempt op the part of friends to rescue the prisoners who were imprisoned on the charge of the murder of Millie Johnson, colored, tor peating her father and mother and fatally wounding her brother. Jonesboro’ was in a great state of excitement over the affair all of yester- day. Sheriff Archer met with resistance in at- tempting to arrest some parties chal with theerime. Seven prisoners were brought to At- lanta by the Gate City Guard and put in jall for safe keeping. Others will probably be arrested. Sam.Cook,one of the prisoners, turned state's ev1- dence and implicated all of the others, but sub- sequently retracted, and sald he was frightened into confession. There 1s an uncompromising de- mand for a full investigation. CINCINNATI'S AUDITOR ARRESTED.—S. W.

Lonpoy, Aug. 2.—The £190,000 worth of gold pursbased on Saturday in the open market for export to America is the Japanese gold coin mentioned tn these dispatehes as having ar- rived in London on Friday.

A Vienna dispatch to the standa There are reports from Constantinople of a na- ture to diminish the prestige of the English, among which 1s the distribution in Turkish military circles of printed accounts of the Af- ghan disaster, ee the British troops with cowardice, and their leaders with utter laca- pacity. The Naval Demonstration to Bull- t says:— Ai respondent of the Times telegraphs as follows: “The negotta- tions for a naval demonstration in Turkish wa- ters are still pi and the final details of the expedition are on the point of being settled. There has never been the slightest foundation for the report of a joint Anglo-French command of the expedition, as all the powers are in giving the command to England. The pe- ical rumors representing the scheme as hav- ing been abandoned, and France, Austria or some other power shrinking from the execution of the plan are equally unfounded, but if the Porte promptly settles the Monten ques. ton the demonstation will be suspended.” French Elections.

Government bonds are so well distributed that there is a very Small floating stock in the street and an order for a round lot is hard to fill, A con- Unuance of easy money and weekly purchases by the treasury are likely to make this condition of afiairs even worse for investors. Considering the heavy purchases of the Treas- ury during the last year and the purchases of upwards of $20,000,000 4s by Mr. Vanderbilt, it Js Dot perhaps strange that this market 1s as It is. As we write the 4s are selling at 1093¢a1093;. ‘The railroad bonds which the general investing ublic all know are choice, are all selling very high at prices which yield a scant 5 per cent income, Not a few shrewd holders of this class of bonds are transferring money from them to other perfectiy good bonds which beause the public at large do not know are ocd, wre sélling twenty to thirty per cent lower.

Bw YORK, August 2.—For the first time since he commenced his fast Dr. Tanner admitte1 this morning that he felt very weak. He said his stomach was in a bad condition, but he ex- ressed confidence In his ability to accomplish undertaking. His eyes were devotd of lustre, tongue furred, and face pinched and haggard. Sul bis watchers asserted that _he had some- what improved since Sunday. He has suffered | from nausea three times since midnight. Smali quantities of mineral water were administered to him during the night and early morning. Before going on kis customary drive he swal- lowed two ounces of very hot water. At noon he Was quietly resting. Advice m Paris. He has received the following cable dispatch from Paris: “Don’t waste strength driving out Shut off all spectators.

Ex-Secretary Cameron has pronounced false the foolish story published some time ago to the effect that he had said hisson Don handed $5,000 to President Hayes to reimburse him for car palgn expenses in 1576. ‘The dental was hardly nec Whether young Mr. Cameron ts a man who promtscuously hands around such a sum or not, all the world knows Prestdent Hayes tsn’t the man who would accept it. General Garfield is In luck 1n one respect. He hssn’t got a son big enough to write political letters professing to foreshadow his father’s Views and policy. That is what has been the trouble with scveral presidential aspirants. General Bancock, we observe, hasn't quite caped the plague. The following Congressional Were made on Saturday; W. K. Boone by the | republicans of the 5th Ohio distric nelly by the greenbackers of th: Vania district; John A. McMahon ber) by Alter the nomination Mr. McMahon visited the hall where the convention was tn session and positively declined, whereupon {t again nomt- bated him and adjourned. Whether Mr. Mc- Mabon will now run or whether another con- vention will have to be called remains to be seen. Representative Blackburn, of Kentucky, sald recenUy that Garfield and Arthur are er than their party,” and the Cyurier-Jouraal, endorsing this remark, says: “Now, as to Han- cock, we are inclined to think that he, too, is better than his party.” The legtsiature to be chosen tn Alabama at the election to-day will elect a United States Senator to succeed Mr. John T. Morgan, whose term expires In March, 1583. Alabama has fol- lowed the lead of other southern states and provided for the election of her legislature quadrennially, The Georgia democratic state convention will be held at Atlanta on Wednesday, and the lively fight to settle who shall be the candidate for governor will then be ended, probably. Judge Stallo, of Cincinnati, has come out in a letter for Hancock and English. Judge Stallo isa gentleman of German extraction, of good character and fair abilities, whose public con- sequence is largely derived from his frequent changes from one party to the other. He has “come out” so often in fact, of late years, that the pertormance is no longer novel or signifi- cant. The Portland Oregonian says that the local democratic papers in Oregon have given up ali hopes Of carrying that state for Hancock, and are devoting heir entire energies to the can- vass in distant states, The republican quarrel in the ist Congress- {onal district of Minnesota, where two candi- dates have been nominated, has been referred vo the state committee and both candidates will probably be withdrawn for a new man. Representative Hendrick B. Wright has in- formed a Scranton Republican reporter that he 1s forever done with politics. This conclusion seems to have been arrived at after politics ‘were apparently “forever done with” him. Some New Books. From W.H. & O. H. Morrison we have the following new publications by D.

In a note to the District Commtssioners Health ONicer Townshend states that as there has been a reduction in the appropriation for relief of the poor during the fiscal Fear endin; June $0, 18S, and as Uhere Was not a suicient amount in the hands of the auditor to pay bills for food furnished the poor during June, 1850, ‘e therefore recommends that a sufficient amount be set apart to provide for medicines ard medical attendance during the ensuing year. He says, he thinks, this service stands pre-eminent’ in the list of charles, and that care should be taken that {t, at least, be not in- terrupted for want of funds. The cost of con- year, including the furnishing of food to the sick poor, was $5,247.06, He thinks the sum of $7,000 should be set apart for this service alone, and so recommends, and that the furnishing 6f food, except In extreme cases, be for the present dispensed with.

As is customary, there was a grand procession through the prin cipal streets. The efforts of the Verein tn year Were directed more to king the park at- tractive than the streets, and the decorations at the park are much more elaborate than on for- mer occasions. The Verein has, since the burn- ing of the hotel at the park last fall, erected a much finer bullding there, and laid gas pipes Unrough the park. About 3,000 gas jets are in place.

The large area drained into the Tiber creek sewer causes @ great quantity of gravel and sand to accumulate in the level section of that conduit between Indiana avenue and the James creek canal. This section requires to be cleared out every year, and many hundreds of cart loads of sand and gravel ts removed therefrom, which is used for street paving. A force of ‘twelve strong colored men, under the superintendence of Mr. Jucob G. Larner, has been kept employed since the first of June in wheeling sand fa this immense cavern tothe manholes. The inside Gimensions of this sewer between the points named Is thirty feet wide and twenty feet be- tween the floor and apex of arch.
