NEW YORK, Dec. 18,1875.
_ A STEP FORWARD.
There is something in public opinion
after all. Even the reckless adventurers
who have control Of the Democratic party
of thiscity have discovered that they have
not the moral strength to brave the indig-
nation of the whole city, and they are
letting down. The crushing, overwhelm-
ing defeat that Tammany met with in Nov-
ember,has.had its effect. Tammany will,
in a week, be Tammany no longer, for its
. chief strength will be shorn away. At the
‘5 t meeting of the General Committee, H.
2 ‘ Clinton, one of_ the ,magnates, and one of
the few respectables who control. it, intro-
duced a resolution thathercaitergthc veil of
secrecy shouldibeflifted; in short that all
the meetings of the soCiety should be pub-
lic. It is understood that Boss Kelly has
consented that this amendment should
prevail, and that hereafter Tammany will
esimply an .open Democratic club, in
whose deliberations \all the members may
take part. If thi‘s“is accomplished, down
goes Tammany. The few kid gloved gen-
try who were Willing enough to rule the
unwashed membership so long as they did
not have to associate with them, will go out
in disgust, or, if interest forces them to
remain, the—ardor on both sides will rapid-
ly cool. You might as well expect water
‘ and oil to mix, as the unwashed Sixth war-
der and the elegant Fifth avenue politician,
. who wants not only the spoils, butinflu-
ence in political circles far removed from its
dirtyIsource. Interest will'hold some of
,them,but when the grimy privates and the
.perfumed ofllcers come together, there will
2be trouble_Pat, when he gets a voice in-
'the managementwill not be content with
the scrapings ofthe pot, but will insist upon
his share of the solid meat, which hereto-
fore his OWners‘have monopolized. And
when A. Fitz-Hugh Jones, Esq., of 51h
avenue, is compelled to rub shoulders with
Dinnis O'Flaherty, and not only that, but
divide-with'him, Jones goes out. He is in
Tammany for himself, alone. Dinnis, he is
willing to use, but he will never-.be' used by
him. When Tammany dies the most per.
nicious power in American politics goes out.
May its days be few.

The fancy shops are wreathed with ever-

Every since the greatchief. has been in
Ludlow street jail, he- liaabeen permitted to
go out whenever he chose, with a’ deputy or
two, and he has lived more of the time at
his residence on Madisbn avenue, and_the
up-town hotels, than he has in his prison
quarters. When histimc came to run, he
went in a carriage to his house—the Depu-
ties stayed in the carriage in the most ac-
commodating way, till—he didn’t return.
Then these innocent fellows, after waiting
two hours and searching the house which
they knew he was not in, which consumed
another hour—raised the alarm. In the
meantime,a steam yacht was lying in the
East River, coated and provisioned. Doubl-
lessBossi' walked through his own house
into the'street beyond,got into a carriage
in waiting,-was driven to this yacht and in
three hours was decently out on the bosom
of the ocean. Or', he-had plenty of time to
getinlo secure hiding in the city, from
which he Ban take his departure at his con-
venience. The police demonstrate once
more their inefficiency or corruption, by
finding no trace of him—the sheriff’s ofii-
cials are even worse—one-half_the Demog-
racy grin with ill-concealed delight at their
chief’s escape,'and the others are vexed as
they think of the political capital this es-
cape furnishes against them.
I predict that the Boss will never be
taken. Those who assisted in his escape,
don’t want to come back to clflm any of
the property they. have got their claws
upon. Themiserable old man is abroad,by
this: time, and he will probably etc there
till he dies—the companion of weeny,
Connolly and Genet, his accompllces.
Would that some of the present officials
would go and do likewise, before they have
quite bankrupted the city.
It is said, that David Dudly Field, lawyer
of the Boss, advised his flight. The bonds-
mcn of the sheriff are shivering in their
shoes, for the city will at, once proceed
against them. Connor expects, of course,
to be removed.

PIETRO.
From the Congregationalist.
Senator 0. S. Ferry.
BY REV. T. S. CHHDS, D. D., HARTFORD.
It is just ten years since my acquaintance
with Gen. Ferry commenced. Letters from
him carried me to Norwalk, Conn., and re-
sulted ultimately in my becoming his pas-_
tor. He was then in the prime of life—for-
ty-two years of age. With a magnificent
physical organizationm genial disposition, a
strong, clear, active mind, earnest, enthusi-
astic, impetuous, yet cautious, wonderfully
popular, no man in the State probably had
the elements, or gave the promise. of a
brighter future. The war was over, and he
had returned to the practice of his profes-
sion,which opened to him all that his am-
bition could' ask in that direction, and to
the enjoyment of his home, which had for
him stronger attractions than the scenes of
public life.
With the movement that sbon placed him
in the National Senate I believe he had
very little do. He was not a political man-
ager. He was an honest man; and those
who knew him best believed in him most
fully. Even his political opponents never,
as far as I am aware, questioned his perfect
integrity. Intensely earnest in cause that
he espouscdghe was more than a partizan.
As a national legislator his views were al-
ways brosder than his party. Acquaintintr
himself thoroughly with the constituti'ona‘l
history of the country, a diligen t student
of the history of other nations, he develop-
ed an independent, wisc, far-seeing states-
manship Which, had he not been arrested
by the hand of disease, would have placed
him—atleast ought to have placed him—in
the very front rank of political leaders. In
my judgment there is no ofilce in the gift of
the nation that Gen. Ferry would not have
filled with eminent ability and success.
But he was more than a statesman.- He
was a‘ Christian; more than this, he was an
eminent Christian. Knowing that lit! has
been misapprehended in this respect,I do the
more cheerfully bear witness to his religious
character. It is true that in early life he
was skeptical; but the transition from skep-
ticism to faith was real and thorou h. His
conversion was as clear as that of an]. In
the latter part of the year 1865 he delivered
a course of lectures, rapidly repared, on
Christian faithr‘i‘hc'great facton W- ic he
rested was the resurrection of Christ. He
had satisfied himself as a lawyer, as an in-
vesti ator of evidence, that, as a historic
cans of Nazareth rose from the dead.
spired, because it had upon it the seal of the
usel- Christ. Christianity, with all its facts
andt'dézclrines, was true, because it was
groilnied in Him who was dead andis alive
again. This was ”Jilin a real and liv-l‘fig,
faith. He grew; in it, and by it. During 11:?
years that hr was my parishioner, no minis3
tcr had a moredpvout and earnest listener,

work, "The Way of Life." He read it with
intense interest, and regarded it as one of
the-most satisfactory and remarkable books
he ever read. Iiifihis he shared the
judgment, I believe, of the late President
Wayland. The preference for distinctively
Christian reading grew on him as he advanc-
,cd. Once, on his return from Washington,
in one of thcmany conversations that it. is
a pleasure now to recall, he referred to this
rcat change in his taste, and observed
that he had little interest in any books un-
ss they were of a religious character. He

One sunny morning played.
Loud were the sounds of merriment,
Which o’er that daisied field they sent;
For theirs were hearts untouched by care,
And eyes that seldom owned a tear.
“What are those sounds ‘2" asked one, “I

Only the children playing there.”

CURRAN’SINOENUITY.—A farmer attend:
ing a fair with £100 in his pocket, took the’
precaution of depositing in tie bands of the
landlord of the public house at which he
stopped. Having occasion for it shortly
afterwards, he resorted to mine host. for
payment. But the landlord, too deep for
lthe countryman, wondered What it meant,
and was quite sure no such sum had .ever
been lodged in his hands by the astonished
rustic. After ineffectual appeals to the
recollection, and finally to the honor of
Bardolph, the farmer applied to Curran for
advice.
“Have patience my friend,” said the
council; "speak to the landlord civilly—tell
him you have left your money with some
other person. Take a friend with you and
lodge with him another hundred in the
presence of your friend, and then come to
me."
He did so and returned to his legal
friend.
“And now I can’t see how I am going to
be better ofi'tor this, ifI get my second
hundred back again. But how is it to
be done?” ~ ~
“Go ask him for it when he is alone,“
said the counsel. - .
“Ay, sir, asking won’t do,I am afraid,
without my witness at bay rate.”
“Never mind take my advice," said his
counsel,“do as I bid you and. return to
me." . .
The farmer returned With his hundred,
glad to find that safely in his possession.
“Now, sir, I must be content, but I_ don't
see as I’m much better 011'.”
“Well, then," said the counsel, “now take
you {friend along with you and ask the
landlord for the hundred pounds’ your friend '
saw you leave with him.” . -'
We need not addthat the Wily landlord
found he had been taken 0117' his guard,
while our honest friend returned to thank
his counsel exultingly With-both hundreds
in his pocket.
Mr. Merrills was outflcollecting, Friday.
He drone 09.10 the house of adebtor in the

the door.
The debtor's wife answered the
summons.
“Is your husband at home it”
“What’s wantin’ 2” she asked. ,
“I want to get some potatOes."
“Yes, he’s to home;‘he’s round back of
the house,” and she preceedeer. Merrills
around there. But the debtor was not 111.3%

g"Why, where’s you pa ?"~she asked of a
little son.
“He just jumped over the fence and went 1.
through the corn,” answered-.the:little boy,
on Whom the father’s active movement had
apparently made a favorable impression.
“I say he hain’t'," protested the mother;
“he was here just this instant.” -
“Yes he did, too, I tell ye,” cried the child.”
“See, ma,” (running to the fence,) “he wears:-
right over here, and there are his tracks
over there. By crackyl but didn’t he scoot
through that corn, tho’ !” and the, apprecia-
tive scion grinned the Whole width of his
face.
Mr. Merrills climbed into his wagon and.
drove thoughtfully back to the store.
