OFFICIAL CJTY PAPER. ALBANY, FRIDAY, FEB. 4, 1S76. la view of the fact that the State election ia approaching,: isn't it about time that Kepublicaus were organizing for , victory ? Our Democratic friends are begiuing already to wake up to the importance of organizing, being stimu latei thereto by tlieir party organs. It seems to be a recognized fact, admitted by all honest men, that the Republican party has a large majority of the voters of the State, at the same time the Demo cratic journals claim that bv. their su perior organization, they expect to gain the victory. If the party goes into the coming fight unorganized or only par tially so, although really having a large majority of the voters in . the ; .State, victory may not percH apon her, banners j oui wuu a iiiorougti ana eomp'ote or. ganuation success it assured beyond the possibility of a doubt. Let' leading Republicans of every precinct take this matter under advisement at once, as with thorough organization, sound men can be selected &b candidates for the various offices, and elected with ease. With the nomination of capable, re liable, honest men, and a complete or ganization, the success ot the Republi can party in June, by an overwhelming vote, cannot be doubted. To secure both of these desirab'e results, we insist that organization of the rank and file of the party is ot the first necessity with out organization neither rwult may r possible. OutcoDlal Ktatlstics. The New York JTerald furnishes lorae very interesting centennial Eta tistics. Ou hundred years ago, id 1776, our Republic commenced with thirteen States and 815,615 square miles of territory, which was occupied by about three ; millions of civilized buraan being. We now have a popu lation of 43,000,000, who occupy thirty seven States and nine Territories, which embrace over 3,000,000 of square, miles. It Las 65,000 miles of railroads, more than sufficient to reach twice and a half round the globe. The value of its annual . agricultural productions is $2,500,000,000, and ita gold mines are capable of producing $70,000,000 a year. It has over 1,000 cotton facto-1 ries,3S0 daily newspapers, 4,300 week- lies, and 625 monthly publications Which altogether shows a very fair progress for one hundred years. In the recent amnesty debate in Con- press, led on the one hand by Blaine, and on the other by Randall, Blaine is acknowledged on all sides to ; have completely demolished bis opponent-Tit was a Waterloo defi at. Poor Randall and Hill were overmatched and they met with a terrible castigation at the bands of Blaine. And it is amusing to tee how the leading Democratic, jour- rials of the East go for Randall and Hill's scalps.

Our Democratic apponcnts in Li-n county, recognizing the band writing on the wall, are clamoring loudly for the organization of their parly adher ents, for the cominff 'June election. C ; r None know so well as the Democratic party leaders in Linn county that the tables are about to be turned, that their day ot grace has expired, and that new and healthy change is about taking place in the 5 political atmoephero of Lino county, so long ruled with an iron baud by the Democratic party. From emigration, defection from the party and other causes, Democracy in Linn is about to- succumb to the inev itable, and give np the reigns ot power to trustier and more capable Lands But while there seems to be no doubt that the Republican party of Linn to day outnumbers its opponents in nu merical strength, yet it is just as cer tain that its organization is far inferior to that ot its opponent. 1 o secure a certain and 6weepiag victcry, in the coming "canvass, the Republicans of Linn must take fteps looking "to- full and complete organization in every precinct in the county. And this can not be done too soon. Republicans ot Linn, let us wake up to a complete realization of the facts before us; let each man do bis duty, and there need be no fear tor the result. - The Soutlierh Life Insurance pany has gone up. . , Com- OITK NEW YORK LETTER. WORBYIKO THE LOtTEBT MEN TIT-TON FAILCBES WOEK IS THE CITY THE BAB BITT DEFAIjCATIOH FASHION ANI CHARI TY BCSSESS. New Tome Jan. 11th. 137G. WOItBYtNO THE tOHBV-DEAlXHS. Tlie authorities are making a raid on the lottery-dealers, and are worrying - that honorable fraternity fearfully. The Ken tucky and 3Iiourl shops have been shut tip, and the managera arrested ; five of the Havana dealers have been placed in quod, and the others are being pulled as fast as possible. " The method is, for an officer in plain clothes to go in and purchase a tick et, and then go and make hU complaint. But very few have an idea as to the extvi.t of the buMuess, or the amount of money expended in this kind of chance. The fa mous Kentucky Library scheme was sold five times hi this city alone, to the extent of over $275,000 each time, and that was only one of a score of schemes that were before tlie public, and by no means tlie mo?t rapid selling. It i curious how; the people part with tlieir money. .For , in stance,' there is the Havana Lottery King. who take thousands of dollars a day, from people who have no knowledge as to the responsibility of the managers, or. for that matter, wliether there is any lottery at all. They pay their money on the simple say- so of men of whom they have no knowl edge, and who are following an illegal business, at best. One old reprobate, who lived in Cincinnati, but who had an ''of fice" here, advcitlsed drawings ten years- one each month of watches, horses, hous es and money, taking tliousands of dollars a month irorn bis victims ; Dot he never Smrf a rlrstwliie at nlL T!'h month - h would go over bis letters, and select points where business was dull, and send to some well-known man who had bought tickets a prize. These men would talk about it. and become walking advertisements ; tor the old swindler. The law finally stopped him, and it Is trying to stop the regular business, but it all amounts to nothing. There is no way of making a tool keep hi8 money. The lottery men will get out of J". 7 iow a -w ween, ami go at it ,S ver !': .1"' -1'.

With dusk the laborers of the day weiid their way home, but another army is ready to take its place. A liost of sweepers and cleaners take possession of the streets at dark, companies with broom and shovel work on the crossings, while the street sweeping machines hurry and clatter past like light artillery, great cylinder brushes sweeping a swatli half the width of a street, just as a mowing machine rakes up grass. Then tlie scavengers wi'.h their scaled wagon-tanks ply their unsavory tasks without, as of old. making the night hideous with their passage. The hundreds ot private watchmen take up their patrol,' and the battalions of night police file to their -posts,; dropping a man at each station as. they pas:, . Scores of night reporters are on tlie move, silent, unnoticed and alert, till two in the morning getting up the latest news of tire and arrest for readers at breakfast. The work of loading and unloading vessels goes on by night and day the same. The printing offices of the morning papers be gin their work about nine in the evening, not to close till the last customer Is served across the counter with his batch of dailies to be left at up-town doors. My newsman was shutting up his stand. the other night as I went by at early winter's dusk, and as he obligingly unlocked bis door to jjive me the last Harper, sakl. "I have to be up and down town by three In the morning to get my papers and 1 must shut up early to get some rest." It gave me a new idea of the cae and hardship it takes to provide a mat ter, so much of course, as our daily paper at breakfast. Beside these occupations. tht re is a large class engaged in supplying the wants of these workers, such as tlie. all night refreshment houses, tlie drinking pla ces, to say nothing of tlie cars and stages, ferryboats and craft of all sorts, lawful and unlawful, that ply from dewy eve till dawn, and round again. FASHIOX ASP CHAB1TV. The first Ot the annual balls given after the flrt of Jatiunrv came off this week, but v?as not the success which these charitable festival usually are, though patronized by the gayest ar.3 most fashionable people. Tlie fact is, ti' people have not money to spend tor anything not trlctly essential, even In the name ot ch:nUy. No. pains were snared to make this ball as jUtraCt!l"e as in former rears, and the decorations Kr? i spoken of as delightful, in the profusion of flowers employee!. The stage of tlie Acad emy was encircled with roses, till the eye could not rest, and tlte private boxes were embowered in . bouquets. Gov. Tiiden cane down from Albany to open the ball, but was delayed tilt "nearly 11 o'clock, when a superb procession swept alter hlni to the floor, the dancing beginning with over seventy couples. , The display ofdress was beliinu that ot toriner years, though there were some very gorgeous costumes. Cream-colored brocades and failles contest ed vividiy with dark velvets, trim mud with gold aud stiver braids and rich lace. One ot the most noticeable dresses was of white embroidered with gold, over crimson silk. rnmmra witn masses or great red cherries and their leaves. A close-fitting robe of black velvet was embroidered with gold nraui, iormiug a vest in xronc ami nearly covering thn skirt, worn with old point lace. Ail ureases nt closely to the torni, the only drapery being In the trimmln aud the hair is dressed with the same sim plicity. The novice style is preferred lor Its convetitnar plainness. I he choice in costutws lies between cream-white and ivory silks and the dark velvets with con trasting trimming. Tims the light dresses are draped with cordons ot rich deen au tumn leaves while the velvets are covered with over-dresses of white gauze or lace. Superb flowers are part of every toilet un less the lace is too rich to need any addt lion, and the fancv ornaments of silver In the shape of chatelaines, belts and neck lets, find tlieir appropriate place in evening costume. Those ladies who liave Genoese silver ornaments will be glad to know that these are In style again, atter being lain aside for years. THE BECKWITH DEFALCATION. The exposure ot BYT. Babbitt's inanag- big clerk is a tit climax to the caes ot e- fault during the year. Month after month some new fraud shocks tlie public, which business men take with as much coolness as the tallure of a countrv customer. In the case of Babbitt's, as everybody calls tt-aa if the criminal bad no concern Mn it, the matter is not to pass off witha I Httla Iianl sweariusr in trie nrtvato omce. The defaulter had been living for two mouths nast in lodgings on Tenth street, going out only in the eveulngs for air. now aia tne oeteciive mm - ut air. Beckw ith's wliereabout t 'liasiJy enough. It is simply a kuowledge ot teminine iiu- man nature that is the slock In trade of all detectlve. They don't ask "where is the man?" they simply biki out wnere tne woman is who is a part of the man- and they are morally certain to find the man as noon as tliey want him. The detective who had Urts matter in cnarge, got an accurate description of Mrs. Beck with, knowing that wnue eecKwitn nimijeii wowu Keep very close.

The detective knows that every-man has a woman about him, and that the woman is certain to go to the man. He catches the woman first. An experienced, thief, however, is harder to catch, for he knows all about it as wail as the detective does; Ida wife would no more go straight to her man than she would give him to the police, for she knows that slie is being .watched. She never .toes put except wheu she must, and she doubles, and turns like a fox that the trail may not be discov ered. It is a sharp detective tliat can fol low tlie toacfefju experienced tWeTa-Wifc-or mistress. .She knows that she is consid ered as a very Important rty, and she watches herself, jnst as closely as the thief does himself. But Beckwitb was not an experienced thief, aud so lie was caught without trouble. .' BUfKESS Continues worse than ever, if possible. Why don't toe people come and buy ? Don't they wear any more clothes f Don't tliey eat or drink? Why is it? There are a few merchants in the hotels, and a few buyers seen abonl tlie wholesale houses, but the few that come only buy jnst what they liave to have, to say they liavea stock, and they want tliat little on such terras as no merchant can live at. The change in the rates of it-eight, west, will make some difference, but I fancy the trouble lies deep er than freights. It costs too much to do business here, and New York will never get her business back till everything comes down to hard-pan. The hotels must drop their rarest the theatres must come down to antiwar pricesajid all the. expenses ot coming to tlie city, slaying here, and get ting out.agniri , must be lowered to some thing like the old times. i Tlien people will come here' again, and business will revive. New York has been too greedv. and has killed the goose tliat laid its golden egg. There Is such a thing as presuming too much on natural advantages. It is to be hoped tliat tlie spring will bring a revival, but it U a dreary wait, pietro. Missouri river was wholly free from ice at Fort Denton Dee. 10.
