What Mr. Conkling Is Going to Do. TWO CONTRARY OPINIONS, A telegram to the N.Y, Sun from Albany has | the following: “What will Mr. Conkling do now?" I asked a | distinguished anti-Conkling man yesterday. “Do! Go into retirement and remain there,” | was the man’s answer. “Thete is no hereafter for politicians of his class. Look at Fenton and Morgan. Each in his turn was governor ofNew York and a Senator of the United States. Each had a vast number of followers. They repre- sented different schools of politics. They are both Gead as Julius Crsar. So is Conkling. It may be remarked that if he had opposed his Party last year, the party would have been de- feated. That was equally true of Fenton in 1868, or of Morgan in 1880. But you will that they were candidates in those years. Well, Conkling wasa candidate last year. Mr. Kernan’s | term was about to expire. He wanted to elect a nobody to the Senate, that he might have the sole honor of representing the state. so he fought for the success of his party. What could he do? Sulk in his tent? Well, it is well that he didn't. What gave him power? Patronage. Grant permitted him to distribute the patronae in this state to suit himself. Hayes lett most. of his office-holders in. They formed a solid pha- anx for nck and the spoils. Now that he is out. there is a desertion of men who have their bread and butter to make in polities, such as Corn harpe, Winslow and the rest of ‘em. They know which side of their cup is up. Conkling is adead cock in the pit. He has en enough left to prevent his resurrection, and not friendsenough to revive him. He will be set down upon hard if he attempts to carry a convention or secure an election to any office. What can he do but practice law “What will Conkling do now?” [asked one of his closest and most intimate friends. “ He will do nothing at present.” was the re- sponse. “If he should conclude to take his re- venge in that way, it would be effective, and bring the administration to his feet. His friends will yote the democratic ticket this year, or not vote at all. You will see what you will see. There are three hundred thousand Conkling re- publicans in this state, and the parties are about even. One In five of them is an active politician, who feels insulted at the wrongs heaped on Mr. Conklin democrats. the state don't you forget it. y made their and left Conkling out. They nominated Governor EB. DP. Morzan with hi Money bags, and the party was beaten h 35,000 majority in New York, and Tilden wee elected President. Two years later they re- solved to let Mr. Conkling haye his way, and the result was a republican victory. In 1879 he ear- ried the state for the party, in'spite of the opt sition of Harper's Weekly and the Evening Peet, st year he was dragged into the work fo save wfield and Arthur. The Utica Herald sa that he did what 200 other speakers did, more. He did what no other speaker did. He sayed Indiana and carried New York. This, one would suppose, gave him some claim on the ai ut what was the result? Blaine was made Secretary of State and Robertson col- | lector of New Y He couldn't stand it, "t dead. Not yet. Wait till he is needed to save the state again, and see if the half breeds don’t cail upon him. He is not like Morgan or Fenton, neither of whom could speak. He is a great natural leader of his | party. He could found a new party if he ¥ “On what could he establish his party?” I asked. “Opposition to monopoly, — se was the answer. A A telegram Kintep By Sw r from South Amboy.

The thief, with an oath, attempted to shake him off, but failing drew a long knife and plu it into Shea's bod: panians tugged at the victim, endeavoring to free the villain from his grasp, but he held bravely on, his shouts for help mingling with |eries of pain as the knife was plunged again and again into his body by the ruffian. At the | sixth blow the dagger was buried in his side to the hilt. Shea sank exhausted on the sidewalk, but so determined was kis grasp that the mur- derer as he shook off his half insensible burden and fled, left a sleeve of his blue flannel shirt in his victim’s hands. The three thieves fled together, but soon separated, the man with the knife running alone up Mulberry street. When pursued by a large crowd and the police he was soon captured. The surgeon dressed Shea's wounds, which were six in number, each deep and dangerous, and the man’s chances for lite are few. He was taken to the hospital. The desperado gave his name as James A.

The once quite prevalent practice of chopping off horses’ tails is now almost abandoned. It was supposed to make an improvement in the animal's appearanee, and was often accompanied by cutting the mane short. Some other oid bar- barisms of a lesser grade survive yet in the use of horses. One of the most defensible proba- bly is the “check-sein.” Undoubtedly, a horse looks much better with his head up. but he ought to have strength and spirit to hold it up himself, and if domestication has weak- ened the breed. so much the worse for the breed. The “checked” horse certaint not travel as easily, for the rest unnatural: and every i long “stretch” and half audible xives on being released. Another relic of un- reason in horse-using is the appropriately named “blinder.” If intended to serve as a surface for gilt ornaments it might be attached to some other part of the harness; if to hide the ugliness of the animal's eye the eye might be improved by removal, which would also in. crease tractability. "The probable theory— which, apparently, nobody has ventured to defy custom by subjecting to the test of reasoning— is that the horse will not start at objects ap- proaching from the rear if he is cut off from see- ing them until closeat hand. But what frightens hin is his not distinctly seeing and understand- ing an object. With the ~blinder” on anythi behind cannot be seer until it comes suddenly upon him: with ng off he could see it “out of the tail of his nd he would be less disturbed by unimpeded The defect of the yes not zo far enow-zth; it should inelose the eye from every direction." A simple improvement in harness might also be made to give aid in controlling the animal.
