It is said that Jay Gould has, in conjunction with Cyrus W. Field and Russell Sageobtained su- preme control of all the New York elevated roads; Making about $3,500,000 clear profit by the opera- tion. They started with a bear movement de- pressing the stocks, and then dought in to the ex- ‘ent of 100,000 shares. ‘The general public has no Particular Interest tn the matter of the ownership Of these roads, but one ph we of this speculation ts Of grave tmportance, If the facts are as alleged by ihe New York Ties, That paper charges with full specifications, that Attorney General Ward Gout: synlicate in this operation, and that Judge Westbrook actually held a private court in Jay Gould's oMice, where orders were complacently issued to sult the great railroad king. This re- wives th lection of the Scandals of some years ago in regand to the practices of corrupt New York judges. The New York papers just now are say- tug Some pretty harsh things about Washington Judges, and one of these ppers, that, according to the Tires, has been the supple tool of Jay Gould this stock-jobbing qperation, has recently de- ‘Manded the tmp*achment of Judge Cox. This sort Of talk comes with a bad grace from that quarte Whatever criticisms may be made upon our Dis- trict Dench It Is certain that no word of suspicion as to Its wnsullied purity has ever been breathed. a Tt does look as if Mr. Tilden still had designs Upon the democratic prestdenttal nomination. His letter, in reply to an invitation to attend the Atlanta exposition, 1s somewhat more diffusive than one entirely indifferent to politics and polit- teal effect would be likely to write upon such a ceasion. Mr. Tilden always writes well and to the point. There ts no disputing that; but this letter ays a knowledge on the subject of cot- ton that was prol New York studied for the occasion. » last national election, and the next, Y ~1 his supertor strength, as compared with ofher democrats, In New York He, no doubt, has seen the favorabie change of gent ment towards him that his taken place in bis | party.

Six years ago the Japanese Emperor established a senate, and in 1874 he Inaugurated provincial and depart- Mental assembiles. He has now issued a decree Preparing its people for a national assembly, to De convoked tn 1599. The Emperor's purpose 1s to Kive his people a constitutional government founded upon liberal and representative princl- Pies. He Is too wise to suddenly revolutionize es- fabiished forms and customs.
