The Coincidence of their Recent Addresses to Boston Audi- ences @ives an Excel- lent Opportunity For Comparirg the Two In Points of Snarply-Msrked Difference. Boetoa correrpondence Chicazo Tril Masaachusetis has two men, now ihrea score and te in years, but with intellect as clear and strong as ever, whom Boswon from different poiats of view alwaya delights to bonor. Oze is Weudell Phillips; ihe other is Ralph Waldo Kmersor. Each has his own sst of followers, but each has always a crowd when® ever he speaks. ‘They are charac. teristie New England men, and whatever may be their national reputation, they never seem more at home than when speaking to & characleristic Boston sudience. It has just happened that they have spoken within 24 hours of one anoth- er, on essentially the same sub Ject, in this city, and the coincidence gives such an excelleut opporturity for comparing the two in pnts of sharply-marked diffcrence, that I cannot but think that s parson will interest your r Mr. Philiips lectured on Sundav afternoon before the Free Keligious Arsociation Here he was at home, His audience welcomed the freest statement of his cpiniors whether in poiitics or religion. To me the interest of the occasion was the man itself. It1s not ofien that you can hear him now, aud the arch enemy may soon take him hence. He is almost as much of & monument of other days as his intimate friend and co-worker, Will- ism Lloyd Garrison, who is now s hale and brisk old gentleman, liv- ing on borrowed time, and feeling that be has done good work for his generation. But bis eye is not yet dim, nor has that pecaliar power which he learged forty yesrs ago while stumping New England in the slavery agitation, departed from him. With waistcoat buttoned, a mun of more than the average size, his presence commanding though not imposing, he stood for an hour before a thousand people, holding their closest attention, never for a ‘moment hesitating for a word, nev- er taking his eye oft the people, sel dom rising in s speech beyond the collodhial freedom of good con- Versation. He spoke slowly, suggesting re- serve strength, sud confined his gestures mainly to his right . hand, aod very free ly to the use -of the extended forefinger, but there was such dig nity, just that remove from the su dience which taught that, while be was one of them, he was yet their teacher in his speech and in his methed, that his disccurse seemed like the utterance of a master spirit, and the charm of his manner was not more marked than the choice and emyle English which he used, or the vigor and clearness of his 1deas. Once or twice he got hisses, a8 when he turned bitterly on New Eogland for disloyaity to the great American idea, but it was Sunday, and he withheld himself from a characteristic reply. Mr. Emerson to.day, was slmost the opposite of Mr. Paillips yester- day. Not in any senss an orstor, & tall, slender figure—now & litte -bent with years, bhis gray bair straggling over & crown parti ally vald, Lus features more « harply cut than ever, his manner as coy and bashful as that of a maiden en tering society for the first time, his eyes as sharp on his audience as ever and bardly dimmed, he stood to-day in the Old South Church before an audience of from 1,000 to 1,500, in singular harmony with the Revolutionary relics around him. The feeling that it might be Ralph Waldo Emerson’s last public ap- pearance had no doubt quickened many to come, but it is no slight tribute to the respect and affection which Boston feels for perbiaps ber greatest genius that 8o large & num- ber of people gathered out of her busy streets to hear what the Con.- cord philosopher had to say on ““The Future of the Republic.” Mr. Emer. son is no orator, aud, apart from the delight which all educated peo- ple have in the welcome surprises of bis discourse, there is now but 3tin- | little charm in his delivery. Once his very bashfuluess and hesitation, giving you the feeling tnat he re. vered his own thought and feit him- self to be nothing, was the speil which held his audience, but now his yoloe is 8o broken that he cannot be heard by more than 200 people wieh distinetness, and ouly those who are nearest him can feel the old time magie of his winged words. Yet something held his large audi ence to-dey, if they could not herr him, 8o spell bound that you could almost hear a pm drop—it may have been thesatisfaction of looking at the man himself, or the husband feeling of awe which we all have in the presence of genius. The avdi- ence iteelf was characteristic. Literaty and professional men were numerous. Mr. Bronson Alcott, Mr. Emerson’s friend and neighbor in Concord—a man ounly less dis. tingmshed thau the author of “Eng- lish Traits,”” a white haired old gen- tieman of 70 years—was present. The Rev. Joseph Cook aud his wife were listening to catch every word The daughter of Hawthorne, the wife of the young poet and novelist, George Parsons Lathrop, was just below bim, looking for all the world like one of her father’s s | heroines and space fails me to men. tion the prominent women of Hos- ton and vicinity, well known in the best sacial circlcs, who made up his illustrious audience. It was' thrill- ing to hear Mr. Emerson’s own daughter, sitting by Mr. Alcotts side, occastonally prompt her fatber to speak in 8 louder tone, and to feel the sympathy of the sudience With her effort. The oceasion was one of rare inter- est, and wes sil the more prized 7 | from the fear lest the cheerfal face of the man in Massachusetts who has preserved his individuality with greatest care might not be seen 1n public sgain. Only those who know his many infirmities ean un. derstand how much it cost him (and his friends) to sppear in public st all; but it is a source of gratification that his lecture, which was appar- ently freshly written, shows no dim- Inution of his crisp and vigorous thought. Tu comparing Phillips and Emer- son, you compare-the Aristotelian with the Platonist. Both lectured on the future of tiie country, and both urged that the people made the country; but Mr. Phillips rapped New England right and left, becanse he felt that its press and statesmen had shown distrust in the free vote of every mun, becagse of its abuse in the citles, and charged their cor- raptions where it belongs, with a severety which showed distrust and bate; the other held the same views, alluded to the same things, felt the abuse just as keealy, but spoke in terms which indicated hope and good cheer and the belief this coun. try is ‘‘the great charity ot God for the human race.” Mr., Emerson made you feel that, though American was provincial, sian Immense Halifax,” too much under the dominon of European in- fluence, we had the resoucres for the future and should be able to show that each man has a reason for being 1 the world. Mr. Phil- lips pleaded for the same ideas, but with such constant thrusts at what he did not approve of, and such sharp words on current political issues, that the ideal glow was lost in the practical discussion of facts In short there was just the differ- ence which exists betwean the ideal- ist who speaks for to.day and for to- morrow, and for the practical man of affairs who plans wisely for to- duy. With all bisimmense strength and with bis true and real sympathy for the musses, Mr. Phillips loses immensely by his despondent view of the present situation and by his indulgence in sarcasm and person- alities, § On the other hand, Mr.- Emerson never more truly descended out of the clouds than he did to.day. He spok words which, when tiey are circulated broadeast, will reverber. ute througnh the nation, which will set men a thinking, and wuich will turn hearts in gratitude to the one who spoke them. Both men are citizens whom no Btate should fail to be proud of, but the greatest ora- tor takes the second place when the poet-philo-opher gives his ripest words on the points which are to shape the destiny of America. Mr. Emerson keeps wonderfully near to facts for 8 man who bhas all his life looked Into the mystyries beyond the clouds, and showed to day that the intuitions of common sense and a clear judgement in *practical af- fawrs were united with the bigher gifts which make him the most original mind which America has preduced J.H. W. SILVER IN LONDOY. Effect of the Passage of the Silver Bill in the Great Money Market. London, March 4.—The passage of the Bland silver bill over the President’s veto has been comment. ed on by ail the leading papers, which have, as herotofore, shown intense bitterness and unfairuess in discussing it, but the public in gen- ers! do not seem to have been alarmed. 1ts effect upon the value ot bonds has been SCARCELY APPRECIABLE, whotever changes that have oc- curred haviog been due to other causes. Going back nearly eix weeks previous to the passage of the bill by the senste, I find that on January 23 United States five-twen- ties closed at 106}, while English consols closed at 95} Yesterday the American securities closed at 106} end English consols at 95% Thus, while English funds have fallen § AMEFICAN BONDS have fully beld theirown, and this is In spite of the fact that the United States bave been accused, not only by Kuglish but by American news- papers and financiers, of having vartiaily repndiated their engage- ments, and endeavored to swindle their creditors. The truth is that the English holders of United States bonds carnot be frightened by any su_h nonsence, and while the proph- els of evil have been prophesying that American securities would Lavea great fall, they have mam- tained tueir position i the most FXTRAOBDINARY MANKER. It ahouldlbs rememnbered that there is hardly one security on the London Exchange that bas not fallen from } to 1} per cent in the same time. ‘The effect upon silver is equally encouraging to those who insisted on its remonetization. From about pence per ounce it has steadily adyanced, in spite of heavy sales on Germany, until now it stands at 55§. An equal increase further will briug it ou an EQUALITY WITH GOLD as a coin; that is, an American sil- ver dollar will be neither better nor worse in any market of the world than a gold dollar, Eoglish holders of American bonds have not yet been frightened into selling them to any noticeable extent, and it is quite likely that the men who bought them when the prospects of the Unifed Biates were so gloomy as to make them worth less than 50 per cent. of therr face are not going 10 be greatly alarmed about so jus: and reasonable & measure. —————— MISCELANEOUS NEWS, St. Petersburg, March 4.—The Czar has call€d out four divisions of reserve with artillery. London, March 4 —Vice-Admiral Inglefield will in May assume the command of the flset on the North American »nd West Indian stations. The position of the British shij at Tuzia 1s regarded as critical, ow- ing to the shorc run for torpedo boats from Tehekmedje or San Stefano. It is strongly suspected that the Thorncraft torpedo boats and Whitehead torpedoes are being dispatched to the sea of Marmora in sections. Washington, March 4.—In the investigation of the Boston post- office muatter to-day, 1t was proved that Meredith, a small New Hamp- shire postoffice, was given to the postmaster in 1875 iu consideration of §250 paid for political purposes. MYSTERIOUS. For montbs past it has been a mystery to the people of this Brate how J. 8. French & Co , the Relia- ble Grocers of Omaha, could sell goods twenty-five per cent. below other dealers; but the secret has leaked out, and we hasten to giveit to our resders, An investigation at the freight cffice reyeals the fact that this firm buy their goods by the car load, and we have also learned through a reliable source tnat by paying cagh on delivery, they secure large discounts, which smail deslers who buy on credit cannot get. We print their price list on sur local page, and it will pay you to examine it. feb8 1y1p What They Cost, and How They Operate. Suggestions for Omaks by a Former Resident. Correspondence of the Bees DENVER, Col., March 1, 1878, -The city of Omahs, in her rapid growth, will be compelled to pro vide a better water aupply than she isnow favored witti. © When but a scattering village, 8s-it was buta short t:me back, the ‘wells and cis- terns gave a bountiful supply of good water, but in her rapid growth cisterns are ivjured from the large deposit of smoks, and the wells are impregnated wita sewage, and will in time, it it has not already been, be the cause of disease. and death. Pure water is not only a luxury, but a decided necessity for the health of a city. Again, the protection from fire will in time driv» your ¢ity to the oreation of waterg wagks, or_the adoption of some meius of supply greater than is possible under the present svstem. T haye 1o plan to offer, but an in- teresting visit to the Denver water- works, and (hrough their reports, and information from the chief en gineer, Mr. P. C. Allen, I am in possession of some facts that may be of {nterest to your citizons. Near the South Platte river are lceated some large wells, These wells, ow- ingto the slope of the country, re- main filed to & pomt seyeral feet above the level of the river surface. The water rises in the wells through the,coarse sand and gravel, and being from melting snows, Is cool, goft and clear. Holly eogines and pumps force the water through the mains and service pipes to all parts of the city. Steam is Eept at a pressure of 70ibs per square inch, and water in the mains show a like pressure. An sutomatic governor regulates the speed of the engine, 8o usto mamtain an even pressure in the water pipes at all hours. As the consumption of water varies to a great ex'ent, so the speed of the engines vary from fifteen to 100 rev- olutions per minute, Organized as & stock company in 1870, with & capital stock of $250,000, work was begun, and we find the company now with good worke, 19 mines of mains, ranging from 15 inches down to 2 inches, 169 hy- drants for fire, and 1,000 taps of from 1} to 2 mches, for supplying tbe buildings. The highest point reached sbove the works is 125 feet They supply the city with from 600, 008 to 1,700,000 gallons per day, and the capacity of the works s 5,000, 000 gallons per diem. In granting the charter a contract was entered into by which the city was to have free access to the hydrants or fire plugs for seven- teen years, for the purpose of put- ting out fires and washing out gut- ters, for which the city pay an an- nual sum of twenty thousand dol- Iars ($20,000.) This is not a severe tax, with a population now of 25,000, aud rep- idly increasing. Water rents for residences usually range from $5 to $10, or $15, in pro portion _to . the number of rooms, and™ where metres are used the price ‘s from three to six cents for one hundred gallons used—the greater quantity costing less in proportion, The year ending Oct. 31st 1877, show: Receipts. $50,046 33 Expen 43,978.92 Gain.. ... 6,067,40 This is the first year that they have come out ahead, and from this on, the profits will increase from year to year, and will become a good paying investment to the owners. The works arc adequate for all demands upon them now, and are susceptible of increase as the de- ‘mards require. The citizens of Denver are great- ly favored with such good works and pure water. J.

It is absolutely necessary for the army in Turkey to return by sea, and not throvgh Kou- mania.” Vienna, March 3.—Negotiations concerning the conference proceed slowly, but Austria’s resoluti~n to bring about its meeting is unshak. en, and it will probably meet in spite of the present spathy of the powers on theSubject. e It is by no mexns certain that the bill to repeal the resumotion act, which has passed the house, will b favorably reported by the senate finance comittee. There is a growing disposition to press action upon that bill. Several members desire to know what the effect of the silver law will be. Some are confident that it will be nullified if the resumptiou act is repealed. Bilver could not circulate. Senator Allison s not well disposed toward the bill. ~ Senator Ferry is now dis- posed to be unfavorabieto it. There are two estimates of strength of the repeal measure in tLe finsnce com- mittee : One that the House bill will be reported favorably by one majority ; another, that it will be reported unfavorably by the same majority.

Iations vefore the conference. Saf- vet Pasharefused to do so. Gener- al Igoatieff then telegraphed to St. Petersburg for instructions. Not known how the question was settled. Russia agreed not to m- clude 8 onica in Bulgaria, it in- cludes Bocegos, Varna and Kus- tendje. Money indemnity of forty miltion pounds, originaily claimed in addition to territorial cession, was finally fixed at twellve millious. TERMS OF PEACE SINGED. St Petersburg, March 4 —Grand Duke Nicholas has sent the follow ing dispatch to the Emperor: “San Btefano, March 3.—I domy- 53 self the honor of congratulating your gracious majesty cn the conclusion of peace. God has vouchsafed to us the happiness of accomplishing the holy work be- gun by Your Majesty; and on the anniversury of the enfrauchisement of the ser’s, Your Majesty has deliv- ered oppressed Christiens from the Musselman yoke.” ————— War Imminent, Bpecial to Chicago Times, London, Mareh 4—2a. m.—There is no news s to the siguing of the peace terms. A Russian telegram charges the Turks wi'h having in- terposed to secure further delay. A rumor originating in Downing street states that Tuesday has bezen fixed as the day of signing. English sentiment seems deter- mined to find fault with Russia ‘whatever concessions may be made by tbe lutter. Yesterday, despite the promise that peace would be signed and Russa had yielded the points a8 to the Turkish iron clads and the Egyptian tribute there was no Iack of fault fiuding. It is vaguely asserted that there are stll many pointsof contention, ana that Engiand has otber and more vital interests than the fate of the Turkish fleet which Russia MAY INTERFERE WITH. Despite all the concessions by Russia and in the face of her official as- surances, it1s still urged that there is cause for alarm, aud that Russian diplomatic assurances are utterly valueless. A statement was re- ceived and credited that the regula- tions affecting the navigation of the Dardanelles -exclusively by Russian war ships are not regarded by Russia as affecting Euro- pean mterests and will not, therefore, be submitted to the conference. The same is said with Teference to the alleged Russian de mand for a fortrees on the Bospho- rus. The circulation of an uncon- fitmed report that the military gov- ernor of the Dardnnelles had receiv any more FOREIGN WAR SHIPS, altnough not geuerally credited, caused immense excitement, and gave tise to'the assertions that it is a Russian move ana simply a prelimmary to the hostilities which Russia expects to ensue as soon as the terms of peace are promulgated. pondent has been again assured that the government are in posses- sion of Information which they cannot make public, but whose na ture issuch thet they believe hostili= ties are 1mevitable. The Chicago Times representative at Pera tele- grapbs that the Russians are so dis. posed that at a few hours’ notice they can occupy & dozen IMPORTANT COAST POSITIONS, including both Constantinopie and Gallipoli. The ndications also point to an intention to seiz> com- manding poiuts on the Bospborus from which, with torpedoes, accu- mulated here, the Elack S a can be and speedily be closed sgainst the adyance of a hostile fleet.
