Niaw Y ork , June 25th, 1878. I need not mention with what pleasure I unfolded the first number of the O bserver . A t first, I held it at a distance to take a general survey of its appearance, as we would any stranger at first sight. But I soon said, ** W e can be warm friends.’1 Its bright, sunny appearance, well edited col umns, spicy locals, and model “ make-up/1 at once won my approbation, and that you should succeed so well on the initial num ber surprises me, but speaks well for its future. I wish the O bserver unbounded success. If the good people of that region do not give it a hearty and generous sup port, they will fail to consider their first and best interests. T he Berlin Congress is in session, with a fair prospect of reaching peaceful con clusions upon all of the vexed questions which claim the attention of its members. T he farmers of Ohio have received cir culars warning them against using labor- saving machinery. The signature attach ed is, “ Workingmen’s Bread or Blood Cora- COMMUNISM—“TROUBLE Since the disastrous strike of railroad employes last summer, when, for a time, the great trunk lines of our country were paralyzed by lawless mobs, gloating in blood and depredations of all sorts, there has been a growing feeling that at some time—possibly in the near future—the So cialistic and Communistic elements in our midst would cause serious trouble. There is manifest wide-spread nervousness re garding the subject. A s this is the head quarters of Communism, and as the great depression in labor and business continues, vast multitudes being out of employment, it is not surprising that grave fears are en tertained of Communistic trouble this sum mer, and it is no wonder that nervous pco- ; pie are considerably agitated over the 1 matter.

It is seldom i that a case is tinctured with so much sail ! romance as is the death of Dr. Creamer, of Brooklyn, which occurred recently. After great diligence in his medical studies, he graduated last March, with honors. But to achieve this, by overstudy, he implant ed the seeds of consumption in a weak frame, and for months has been gradually yielding to this fell destroyer of promising life. Recently he took a walk, and on re turning, informed his mother that he had chosen a lot on a sunny slope in Calvary Cemetery, where he wished to be buried. He began to sink faster than ever. His affianced, who had been a school-mate, became an inmate of the house, and spent a greater part of her time in the sick-cham ber. As he came very near his end, he roused himself and expressed the wish to his mother that the marriage ceremony might be performed before he departed. There was no objection, and the relatives and friends present were brought into the sick-room. A t one o’clock in the after noon, the dying bridegroom was propped up with pillows, the young and beautiful bride arose from the chair in which she had passed many anxious days, and the ceremony was performed in the presence of the weeping spectators. He sank back on his pillow, his countenance radiant with joy ; but before the dawn of the fol lowing day he passed from the land of shadows to the shore of everlasting light, and the young and beautiful bride of a few hours was a lieart-brokeu widow. TERRIBLE EXPLOSION IN THE NEW MUNICI PAL BUILDING, BROOKLYN. Yesterday (Monday) morning, a little be fore ten o’clock, a terrible explosion occur red in the Tax Office in the new Municipal Building, which shook the e*1 to the foundation — - — ered the doors and windows to fragments, and several are believed to be fatally injured. An alarm of fire was sounded, which bough t speed er cne accident an immense FA B U L O U S W E A L T H OF T H E P A R - A G R A P H E R S . <v T . inoton a sensation has bi created in Kv a pubrehed i^ort.that a ■'■***\■ r ol Congress, Wednesday -»veir^l<r o* last 'eek, invitod a lady to dim a(. ” ily to the scene c r o w * « ° d the excitement spread like wide-fire throughout the city. It appears that, just before the accident occurred, two clerks, named Vincent and Code, en-1 small vices. The paragrapher o f the Phil- tered the safe-room. A newspaper item, headed “Profits of Authors/’ says the majority of bookmak ers are notoriously poor. This may be the case, but it is entirely different with news paper paragraphists. They are independ ently rich, and give largo sums in charity. Mr. Bailey, of the Danbury News, is worth $400,995, and owns two dogs. He would now be worth the round sum of $500,000 if ho had not taken the advice of enemies and published a book. Mr. P. I. of the New York Herald , whose name was Gold smith before he wedded the newspaper profession, has laid up $500,000 for a rainy day, and owns a meerschaum pipe, former ly the property of the Duke of Norfolk, Va. He never published a book, and his other habits are good. Lewis, of the De troit Free Press, has acquired $400,975 and a double-barreled gun. He has published a book. He has also experienced a pair of explosions, but he is not proud. Mr. Croffut, of the New York Graphicy has no faith or money in banks. He has $500,- 010 out of bank. The $500,000 was made by paragraphing, and the $10 by writing poetry. No book. Mr, Burdette, of the Burlington Hawkcye , has saved up the snug little sum of $400,975 and a bullseye watch. He has published a book and caused his family pain by mounting the lecture platform. Mr. Catlin, late of the New York Commercial Advertiser , and consulate dee Etats Unis d’Amerique a La Rochelle, France, also president de la Par- agrapher’s association des Etas Unis d’ Amerique, and meinbre de la Press asso ciation de New Jersey, etc., has a bank ac count of $500,000. As he contemplates J visiting the Paris exposition he may be worth onlyr $400,000 a month or two hence. Rewey, of the New Haven Register , has paragraphed $400,000 and fame out of journalism*. The report that he sunk $1,200,000 on toe Worcester Press is a fabrication— a campaign _ a gross eliperkinisna. He only lost $900,000 in tii<xt venture. Eugene Field, of the St Louis Journal , has acquired $500,000 ana a love ly moustache in the paragraphing business. No book.

But “ the Murphy of the W e s t” having furnished the above paper with a notice more complete and artistic than anything we could have produced, wc publish it en tire—not because it gives anything like a correct idea of his addresses, but as the most wonderful exhibition of adamantine cheek which has ever come under our no tice. More cheeky from the fact that it is almost a complete tissue of falsehoods, and that, before leaving Dundee, he apologized for and took back all the personal remarks which he had made the previous evening in relation to the celebrated still hunt after a coon. This piece was signed with the name of a gentleman residing in this vil lage who knew nothing of it until he saw it in print. Not satisfied with this forgery, he wrote a note, in i mitation of the afore said gentleman’s handwriting, asking the editor of the Democrat to publish the com munication, and again forging the signa ture. W ith these few introductory re marks, we present his rodomontade : THE ELOQUENT ORATOR IN DUNDEE.

Mott, well-known in newspaper -ireies was passionately fond of flowers, \ j favorite fuchsia, which she watche d A a . 1 cared for with childish but unceasing at tention. It was, at the time she was taken sick, a large, strong, and in every way healthy plant, and had been in profuse bloom. On the first day of her illness there were forty buds upon it, ready to burst in to flower, which event Maud was awaiting with the fondest anxiety. It seemed that only a few hours could intervene before the plant would be one mass of brightness. It never bloomed. From the day its ten der nurse was strilten with tho ** dreaded disease that sapped her life, the pland grad ually withered, One by one thv full buds shrunk away and dropped from the stems. On the day that little Maud die*, the last bud fell olf, and the. next moiling the plant itself was as leafless and hriveled as if the bitterest frost had stung It to the heart, although it had received th» best of care throughout.

Instantly, gn immense sheet of flame shot out, and an explosion follow ed which stunned every one in the adjoin ing room ; then the walls of the safe-room bulged out and fell, with another din, fill ing the large room with dust and particles of mortar. Fragments of mortar, wood and iron flew through the air, breaking windows, doors and furniture in an inde scribable manner. Vincent who stood in the door o f the safe-room, was blown com pletely across the bill-room, a distance of over thirty feet. He went through a thick black-walnut partition, and was dashed with awful force against an iron steam ra diator. The wall and radiator were spat- with his blood, and a large pool foiiuc-.*-, tiie place where he fell. Code, who stoou in ^ ^ -'fe-room, was buried beneath the mass of jron ^hat fell into the bill-room. It is thought tiiui they are fatally injured. Many others were injured, but less seriously. For thir ty-six hours, it appears, the gas had been escaping, and had been pent up in the four walls of this air-tight room, some six by twenty feet. The strangest feature of the West. W e thought the one of Tuesday evening surpassed anything we have heard, even from Gough himself. A circumstance occurred at its conclusion, just after the speaker had been loudly applauded, that called out the orator to a still greater effort last evening. It was the request then made by one who was smarting under the speaker’s lash, that the orator would on the next evening give a fragment of his own experience, when he was drunk in his com-field, three years since. As the request came from one who had run a drunkard factory at Starkey then, ami was now poisoning his fellow men in Du ndee, it was freely accepted by the speaker, who was one of his victims then. The whiskey ' The appaker to include all o fth * er s other victims since, as well as the mui- derer with his booty now. This brought auivw uic nouse in favor of the orator, and the whiskey -dealer hurried in a rage down the stairs from the hall. The death- dealer had made a terrible mistake in this request, as it aroused all the bitter and in tense feeling of one who had been bitten by him ; and it was evident that it would fill the hall full the next evening, as it did. The lion was aroused, and we have not the jiower to describe the way in which he first played with his prey, and tortured his assailant, and at last came down in full power, like a thunderbolt, upon the man- destroyer, wife-murderer, and- orphan- maker. \We can only give a few sentences —the delivery we can’t describe. It was masterly. Said h e : ‘ ‘ Dare ye assail one of your own victims who has suffered death, almost, from your hands, because he is now rushing to rescue others from j^our bloody jaws?

Upon the opening day of these baths, recently, there were upwards of ten thousand youthful bathers, coming in crowds from early morn until late in the evening, mostly from tenement houses where there are few conveniences for keeping themselves clean.

INSANITY AMONG FEMALES. In the report of Dr. Parsons, Medical ^uI^***atendent of the City Lunatic Asy lum foi -iyomeil) f or 1877, we find some startling fav 7 r e g a r j j ng the rapid increase of insanity amo% females during the past ten years.

Beecher has pro pounded a conundrum in Elmira, and the philanthropists are struggling with it.^M>'» Beecher simply asked for opportunity to set three boys at work. It opened the whole question of unskilled labor and set people thinking of the employment of boys just verging into manhood at some labor that would give them a chance in the world. The boys of sixteen or eighteen running at large aimlessly in a city are in good training for mischief. These boys do not work, for there is notliing appar- v ~ ■— ■’ ----- Ar. Th^ apprentice sys tem keeps most of them out of the trades, and they dreau tu boit.ub to tli© farms, and the farmers seemio, dread them and their city notions. The city idler does- not readily become a tractable potato-dig ger unless he is of a great good sense and is determined to achieve something in some direction and wants to work and learn above all things. Boys of this kind are not numerous. The ma jority of idlers poison their minds with horrible literature and are unfit for the life of a farm. To them the farm is dull and prosy. If it were possible to make our idlers love the fields and woods, and by kindness hold them fron* employing their energies waste- fully, much good would be accomplished. This question of employing boys has. been discussed so much in Elmira that the boys are beginning to look into it, and there is an awakening desire to learn something from kind teachers on the surrounding farms. It is good to discuss these ques tions. The boys will be benefited by it. Hints and suggestions will be given that must aid many a boy in adopting some plan by which he can learn useful lessons in getting a living. How to employ the surplus energies of hand and brain is the most pressing question. Prosperity will \'crease as the idlers decrease. The cry silver and greenbacks is but a short- sighttT expedient. It is not the way out of difficiuVi silver and greenbacks have to be eamea, w]ien earned must go to lift the burden s used by idleness., If the idle can be employs^ au can earn money, and the waste will be ^ ened .—Rochester Democrat.

It is, in every way, an at tractive sheet, and worthy of a liberal pat ronage. Mr. Vx-eeland learned his trade in the Express office, and was for many years its foreman. He is honest, capable, and faithful, and has had sufficient experience in the newspaper business to enable him to make it a success. Mi*. Judd has also been connected with this paper as local ed itor and compositor. He is a graceful writer of far more than ordinary ability, and will be able to keep the O bserver m the front rank of country journals.
