A Senseless Cry.
‘•Let well enough alone” the Republi
can organs and orator* keep crying.
They quote from the census reports to
prove that the country is rich and pros
perous. and point to the marv elous devel
opment of the country in the last twenty
years as a proof that the rule of the Ke
pubHcaa party is the best for the people.
But as a matter ot fact Is the country
3 -r-*porous’ Every day a large number
of business failures is announced. Mills,
f v'tories and mines are running half
time, cutting down wages or shutting
df-wn altogether. Wheat is lower than it
has been for twenty-five years. The farm
ers find it difficult to pay the interest on
their mortgages, and the poor In the great
manufacturing towns do not know where
the bread is to come from during the ap
nroaching winter to keep them from
starving.
The times cannot be considered as good
and the countrv cannot be said to be
prosperous. There is no **wen enough.’’
therefore, to let alone.
The Republicans say. of course, that
they are not responsible for the present
depressed condition of affair*. But can
th-y rid themselves of responsibility? It
:s their policy that prevails in the gov
orament. and. as Mr. Hendricks has
-hr.wn time and time again during the
present campaign, it is their policy that
is producing the depression from which
the country is suffering.
The country is overstocked with pro
ductions of all kinds. The home market
: cannot consume these productions, and
: the tariff policy of the Republican party
■ prevents them from finding their way into
‘ other markets. While this policy is
shutting up the mills and factories it Is
! drawing from the pockets ol the people
| fl'X'.OOO.tjoO a year more than is needed to
i meet the expenses of the government, and
i the purchasing power of the people is un
i necessarily limited to that extent.
It is not to be wondered at that the
, limes are hard. The hard times mu6t
I continue if this policy is continued. The
i policy did well enough as long as our
[ producing power was less than our con
! sumine power, but now that our pro
j iueing power is greater than our con
suming power a different policy is im
! peratively demanded.
i Blaine may attempt to arouse the fears
of workingmen with respect to their
! wages, but he knows, as the most intelli
-1 g*i*t leaders of his party know, that the
| present tariff must be greatly reduced.
, The President in his last message recom
i mended a reduction, and the man who
has just been made Secretary of the
I Treasury believes, as the Democratic par
tv does, that the tariff must be reduced to
. a revenue basis. The cry of ‘‘Let well
j enough alone” is without sense or reason.
The Pan Butler Is Playing.
Butler can hardly regard the part he is
playing in the present campaign with
any decree of satisfaction. There is noth
ing honorable in it. It has not been a suc
cessful part. He began his campaign
with such an air of sincerity, and with
such an exhibition of determination to
fight in a hoi>eless cause for principle's
sake that a great many were led to think
that he was really in earnest.
His real purpose, however, soon be
came apparent. The demagogue cropped
out before he had been on the stump
many days. He could not conceal the
motives that induced him to pose as the
candidate of the workingmen.
He was mad because the Democratic
party gave him no encouragement at Chi
cago. Preposterous as it may seem, he
expected to be seriously considered ir.
connection with the Democratic nomina
tion. Indeed, he was egotistical enough
to bc-lieve that the party couldn't very
well aff 'rd to ignore him-
For several week* after the convention
th*-Democrats could have bought him,
d* . -t'. if they had had wanted him. He
would have been an elephant on their
hands, however, after the election in the
event of Cleveland’s success. They con
cluded that they didn’t want him, and
when he realized the actual condition of
affairs, he doubtless would readily have
destroyed the Democratic party if he
could.
If what his lieutenants say is true he
- ;; .:ht revenge by selling himself to
Blaine. He found himself in more con
genial company in the 11 -publican camp.
He got his price and began his work.
Will the bargain profit him or the Repub
lican party? It looks now ns if Butler
W"uld not be heard of on flection day. To
toe historian of this campaign he will aj
p ar as a malignant old man w ho sought to
injure the party that declined to honc>r
him by deceiving the honest workingmen ot
tae country. He is playing the part of the
villain of the campaign, and nobody
doubts that he is well qualified for the
role.
What tin* S‘<tt Law May Do.
Gov. Hoadly and other Democratic
leaders of Ohio are of the opinion that the
recent decision of the Supreme Court of
that State declaring the Scott law invalid
will make the State Democratic at the
eiection next week. Under the constitu
tion, as it now stands, a liquor license is
not lawful. Gov. Hoadly says that he shall
recommend the next Legislature to submit
a constitutional license amendment to the
people. It is probable, 01 course, that a
prohibition amendment will be insisted
on at the same time. The liquor issue
will then once more be submitted to the
people. It was voted on last year, when
the Democrats carried the State by a plu
rality of 12,000. It is the purpose of the
Democrats to torce it into next Tuesday's
election. Last year on this issue the
Germans voted with the Democrats. At
the October election this year the Ger
mans returned to the Republicans. It re
mains to be seen if they will not join the
Democrats again on the liquor issue and
reverse the October decision. The deci
sion in the Scott law case may elect the
next President.
The report that the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company and Vanderbilt have com
bined to buy a controlling interest in the
stock of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
for the purpose of ousting the Garrett
management does not appear to have any
foundation. The whole number of shares
of the stock is 147.000. The Garrett estate
owns 4.1,C00 shares; the city of Baltimore,
which is favorable to the Garrett manage
ment, owns 32.50 U; the Johns Hopkins
Hospital trustees hold 17.500 shares, and
they can be depended on to stand by the
Garretts, and the Gregg brothers, who be
lieve in the Garretts, have 7,500 shares.
These holdings constitute a good deal
more than a majority of the stock. It is
now selling at 170, and rery little of it can
be had. Some days none of it is sold. It
pats 10 per cent., and those who have it
are inclined to hold on to it.
Mahone, having failed to get what money
he warfled to run his campaign in Vir
ginia, intends, it is said, to attempt to car
ry the State with the help of Deputy Mar
shals. In the appoiuttnent of these- oflleers
especial attention is to be paid to assign
ing tbe most active workers to the close
districts. The fact that the Democrats
are net sure that Virginia can be carried
by a large majority, gives Mahone some
hope that he may succeed by filling tbe
-late with Deputy Marshals. These will,
in many eases, be selected from the doubt
ful Democrats. There- is not much prob
ability that Mahone can bribe doubtful
Democrats or Democrats of any kind to
vote for Blaine. The situation will be
rather unpleasant in Virginia for those
wh pretend to be Democrats and who do
n t stand by their party on Nov. 4.
It sc<. ms that the Commissioners of Im
migration at Castle Garden, New York,
are beginning to be bothered with German
{taupers. Not long ago only British
paupers were defeated among the immi
grants and sent back, but now it seems
that Germany is beginning to empty her
almhouses on our shores. If Bismarck
won’t taee our pork he ought not to ex
pect us to take his paupers.
Gold is beginning to return to this coun
try. A few months ago the outflow of
gold to England was so great as to excite
alarm. On last Tuesday 190,000 in gold
was withdrawn from the Bank of Eng
land for shipment to this country. More
than $1,000,000 in gold is now on the way
to New York. This shows that exports
are flowing from this country to Europe
in a very healthy volume.
A Scheme to Capture the Prohibi
tion Vote.
Tnere are apparently well authenticated
statements that the Republican managers
are trying to get St. John to withdraw.
They are fighting the Prohibitionists
about as hard as they are fighting the
Democrats. One of the leading Prohibi
tionists is Col. George R. Scott, of New
York. He says that a very prominent
Republican leader told St. John a few
days ago that if he would withdraw he
could dictate his own terms. St- John
isn’t the kind of a man to accept a bribe.
He proposes to continue the fight until
the polls open on election day.
The Prohibitionists are confident that
they will poll 500.000 votes, and that of
this number between 60,000 and 75,000
will be polled in New York State. As
seven-tenths, at least, ot the Prohibition
votes will be drawn from the Republican
party it is easy to see why the Republi
cans are so anxious to get St. John out of
the way.
A Prohibition leader called on Mr. Bar
num, Chairman of the Democratic Na
tional Committee, on Tuesday and in
formed him that he had information of a
scheme, concocted by the Republican
managers, to capture the Prohibition
vote. The scheme was to telegraph all
over the country, at a time when it wouid
be too late to make a denial effective, that
st. John had withdrawn and had request
ed the Prohibitionists to vote for Blaine.
Care will be taken that no such scheme
succeeds. Now that it has been discov
ered it is probable that no attempt will be
made to execute it.
That such a scheme was contemplated,
however, shows to what extremities the
Republicans have been driven.
Majority and Plurality.
There appears to be considerable con
fusion in the public mind respecting the
terms majority and plurality as applied
to election returns. A plurality of votes
is the excess cast for one candidate over
the votes cast for any one of several com
peting candidates. A majority of votes is
more than half of all the votes cast. The
New York Journal of Commerce illus
trates the matter as follows:
For Secretary of State, the highest
State officer voted for at the election in
Ohio, the votes, as now officially reported,
stood:
Robinson, Republican 391,599
Newman. Democrat ■■ ffir.ili
MorrK Prohibitionist 9.*>57
Herolil, Oreenbick
Total votes cast 75:,311
There may have been other scattering
votes, but no more are mentioned in the
official returns, and this will serve as an
illustration. Robinson’s vote as com
pared with Newman’s shows a plurality
of 11,324; that is, it is so much more than
Newman's; as compared with Morris’
vote Robinson’s plurality is 381,742, it be
ing so much more than the vote given to
the Prohibitionist; but as compared with
the total vote, Robinson is in a minority
of 2,113. he having only 391.599 and there
being 393,712 against him. Robinson must
have had 392,656 to have had a majority of
ail the votes cast. It follows that xt, as we
stated the other day, the usual course is
held to govern, and the vote for the highest
candidate on the ticket is taken as a test
at a State election; then a wager that the
Republicans would have a given majority
in Ohio, the word to be taken literally, is
lost to the party on that side. The Re
publicans, therefore, did not carry Ohio
by a ••majority” at all, as they were
shown to be in actual minority in the
State vote. An engagement hinging on
the ‘'success of the Republicans” in Ohio,
or on the condition that *‘the Republicans
carry Ohio at the State election.” is se
cure; so also a wager that the Republi
can plurality would be over 10,000 votes,
or that the ’Republicans would beat the
Democrats by 10,000 votes, can be held to
be won. But where the word ‘’majority"
has been used, the parties must agree
1 upon the meaning they attached to the
| word.
A tew days ago near the small town of
Arlington, in this State, says a Columbia,
S. C., special, Dr. Dewry Drake died in
his 721 year. The deceased wa9 one of
the greatest duelists of his time. During
a professional career in Mississippi from
IS3-S to I*sß, he fought seven duels, in four
of which he killed his adversary and in
two of which he was badly wounded him
self. For many years he was a writer for
the press, and his criticisms of men and
measures were often harsh and unjust.
He took especial delight in provoking
prominent men to quarrels, and enjoyed
the thing still more when his victims
were goaded on to challenging him.
He was a most skillful swordsman,
having acquired the art from
a celebrated teacher in Paris
when he was attending the university
there. He was also an unerring marks
man with either a pistol or a rifle. Some
years ago he became very near becoming
a professional billiard player. dN hi’.e in
New Orleans, in 1859 and 1860, he defeated
the best players of the city and won large
sums of money. Immediately alter the
war Drake was said to be worth several
hundred thousand dollars. He went
abroad in 1867 and returned to New Or
leans last year, penniless and forgotten.
He was suffering with an incurable mal
ady. and a friend took him to his house
and provided him with medical attention
and every luxury. His dissolution caused
no remark, lor the public had forgotten
the famous Mississippi duelist.
Jay Gould was at the Blaine dinner at
Delmomco’s, and was conspicuous by his
silence. There is no doubt, however,
that he was not forgotten when the talk
turned on the necessity of tapping the
safes for further campaign funds. Gould
is a liberal contributor when he thinks
there is a chance to get his money back.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Prevarication a Fine Art.
Xew York Herald Und. Hem.).
Snrelv, prevarication has become a fine art
with Mr. Blaine’s friends under his leader
ship. Butler denies that he made a bargain
with Chandler “on board the Tallapoosa.”
Joy denies that Blaine made a corrupt propo
sal “Fort smith and Little Rock bonds.”
But in spite of both these artistic denials it re
mains without contradiction that there was a
bargain in theone case and a corrupt propo
sal in the other.
A Matter of the Utmost Importance.
Providence Telegram [Hem.).
The Blaine managers have the usual exag
gerated opinion of what can be done by a skill
ful use of the Irish vote. To them the capture
of one Irishman has become a matter of the
utmost importance. We frequently read in
the Blaine organs that in this, that, or the
other citv a few Irishmen have formed a
Blaine and Logan Club, and immediately
profound confidence is felt and expressed in
the success of the ticket.
Bad for the Blaine Managers.
Fete Yr rk Evening Pott ( Ind. Bep.>.
New* from the three States which the
Blaine managers have turned to for salvation
is neariv all bad for them. It is very evident
that the tide which has carried Ne w York
away from them is exerting a powerful influ
ence ia New Jersey and Connecticut. The
latter is believed to be absolutely assured to
Cleveland, and it is very doubtful if even the
-tar route operators who are leading Mr.
Blaine's finance campaign can buy the vote of
New Jersey.

A bather can lie on the surface of the water
of the Gr at Sail Lake with little exertion;
or. by passing a towel under his knees and
holding the two ends he can remain in any
depth of water kneeling, with the head and
shoulders out of the water; or, by shifting it
under the soles of the feet, he can sit on the
water. The one exertion, in fact, is to keep
one’s balance: none whatever is required to
keep afloat. The only danger, therefore,
arises from rhokinz by accidentally swallow
mg s me of the water, for the st eugin of the
brine is so intense that the muscles of the
throat are convulsed, and strangulation en
sues.
A letter purporting to give a description
bv an eye-witness of the execution of Mary,
(fueen of Scots, will die published at the end
of the present rear. It has been found in a
manuscript book among the papers_of Lord
Eliock, the Judge, who died in 1793. The
book is all written in one hand, apparently in
the first half of the eighteenth century, and
the account of the execution is a copy of a let
ter sent I>y special de-ire. Lord r.liock -
father managed the affairs of the Duke of
Perth and of other families devoted to the
stuart cause, and it is conjectured that the
document is a copy of a letter written by 11
member of one of these families.
A most CCKiors paper is the official Chi
nese payer, called A'<ng-/’un, which claims to
have been started as early as 911. and to have
appeared at irregular intervals till 1351, when

commeLcement of the present century it be
came a -daily,” at the price of i kehs—about
,and. By a decree of the Emperor, a short
time back, it was ordered that three editions
were to lx- printed every day—the first or
morning edition, on yellow paper, is devoted
to commercial intelligence; the second or
afternoon edition contains official and general
news: and the third, on red paper, is a sum
mary of the two earlier editions, with the ad
dition of iioiitical and social articles. The
editorial duties are performed by six mem
bers of the Scientific Academy, who are ap
pointed bv government. The circulation is
about 14,000 daily.
Every now and then facts come to light,
says the Pall Mall Gazette, which seem to con
flict strangely with the theories of the doctors.
For instance, at Howdon, a dirty, desolate
village on Tyneside, a bey was born who, at
the time of his birth, had four grandparents
and live great-grandparents alive, each of
whom wis 111 active work, earning his or her
own livelihood. Yet the village where these
hale and hearty grandsires and grandamts
live and flourish is one of the mo=t unsanitary
n England. <>i>en sewers run down the cen
tre of some of the streets. Until a few years
ago the water supply was from one shallow
wel . Onlvonesolit'iryscavenger is employed
on half time for cleansing, repairing and
maintaining all the streets. Houses have been
condemned wholesale as unfit for human hab
itation. to the intense di-gust of the people.
Yet, notwithstanding all these adverse condi
tion-, these families live and thrive vigorously.

JEFF DAVIS’ SADDLE.
The True History ef Notwble Event
tn the V> r.
FIAOIN, HorSTOK Cos., g a., Oct. IL, 18M.
Editor* HomoJntmal-. H wing seen several
letters in the Ma ori Telegraph and Meuenger,
also in the Ham* Jemrrutl. in regard to the
saddle of ex-President Jefferson Davis, all of
which being mere or les* erratic, I herewith
give you the tacts, as circumstances at that
time place*! me in a po-iiion to know them
just as they occurred 1 also inclose a letter
received by me from Mr. Davis in regard to
if. in which he rive- the history of the famous
saddle, which makes it valuable to him. Loon
receiving which 1 wrote to Mr. Davis, teilmg
him it was in the possession of Dr. w. L.
Jones, of Fort Vailev, to whom I
also address*! two letters, giving him
Mr. Davis' wish in regard to xt,
neither of which was ever answered.
Now to the facts relative to the saddle: Dn
the night of Mav 22, ’-Jv.. the captors of Mr.
Davis camped at Sandy Run Church, within
four or five hundred yard* of my house. One
Adam O'Prv and not Adam Jones, as it ap
peared in the Telegraph and Xeeeenger a short
while since, went into the camp to see our
much loved chief, and thereupon Mr. Davis
a*ked him if he would like to have a nice sad
dle. The young man proudly accepted the
gift, with the understanding that if it was
1 ever railed for : shout 1 be returned. Accord
ingly it was wrapped in a blanket au-d thj-n
put in a tag and given to the servant or Mr.
Davis, who had been instructed to shoubl r
it. and upon passing the guard to say. “11l
make them folks up vonder cook some C'“ v '
br< ad,” and to hide the saddle in my kitchen,
which place voung O'Pry understood he was
to take it. provided he cou'd elude the throng
rf Yankees in and around my yard anu
house. This he did- after prornr
ing another blanket from my wife in which to
wrap it. He then carried it to h_.s father*
g:nh use. not far away, and burned it in seed
cotton, where it remained some tune— until
ail was quiet—when he brought it out and
role it for several years afterw rds. When
he left for Texas, where he now lives, he
turned it over to the said Dr.-Jones, of rort
Valley, in whose possess:'' ■ with the excep
tion of a short time when it was in the library
at Fort Valley, it has ever since been.
On the morning after it was taken from the
camp the Yankees arrested m ? < charging me
with having taking ... but after much par
lance. and mint threats to take me with the
captives, thev turned me lo •. scemtuglv
satisfied with’ the positive statement, “I aid
not take it.” _ „

VERBATIM COPY OF A LETTER FROM HON.
JIFJERSON DAVIS.
Beauvoir, Harrison County. Miss..*
March 7, ISsO. \
Geo. _Y. Ftngin, £*/.:
My Deae nib— P ease accept my thanks for
3'*>ur kind letter of the 23th ult. The saddle
of which you wrote to me is, I suppose, mine,
and much valued for ihe associations con
nected with it. My saddle was highly finished,
and male on the famous Hope tree. It had a
large plated pommel, with a compass in it
covered with glass. Its history is that a
vouth named Andrew Jackson Rice was aid
ed, wheu a hoy at Natchez, by my father-in
law. Wm. B. Howell, lime learned the trade
of a saddler, removed to Texas, and after
vear* had elapsed made a saddle and sent it to
Mr. Howell in t ken of his grateful re
membrance. Mr. Howell gave it to me. and
after <*ur capture in Georgia my brother-in
iaw, Jefferson D. Howell, rode on it. Its
beautv attracted the notice of our captors,
and their purpose to appropriate it caused it
to be left at the house of one of our friends
and countrymen on the roxd to Macon. I
have often thought of making inquiry for it.
but could not recall the name of the kind
friend who consented to keep it for me, nor
could I so describe the house as to identify it.
Col. Johnson is mistaken as to its having been
stolen, perhaps confounding the intent with
the deed. Jefferson Davis.
Hand-Shaking.
London Truth.
The Scotch hand-srasp is the roughest:
the Frenchman shakes haDds with the
tips of stiffened and drawn-tosether fin
gers. which signifies that he walls himself
round with politeness as with a lortress
to keep off intruders. Never expect any
thing of a person who shakes a soft hand
in a limp way. I have had a wide experi
ence of 'false cordiality, which was be
trayed by old soldiers, who, in battering
through hotels and boarding-houses, have
lost all manhood; by hardened diplo
matists. bv persons thankful tor
past favors and hoping lor favors
to come, and by exhibitors at uni
versal exhibitions wanting puffs. An
Italian, who in all cases tries to hide his
little game, hates to offer bis hand. To
avoid doing so when he meets an English
man, he rubs both his bands slowly to
gether, as if washing them. An enthusi
ast about ideas, principles and systems,
rarely puts cordiality into a hand shake.
Thiers’ hand-shake, though brusque and
dry, was not unpleasant. That of Gain
be'tta contrasted with his apparent open
ness and heartiness, and did not express
character. Clemenceau’s is nervous and
rapid, and with a friend very friendly.
Grevy scans your countenance in a good
humored way in holding your hand. Mme.
Adam's hand-shake is that of a fearless
and amiable woman who wants to make
a conquest of every man, woman and
child she meets. It is counted improper
for a French miss in her teens to offer so
much as the tips of her fingers, whether
they are gloved or not, to a gentleman.
The French lady shakes hands in a pussy
cat style, and the German frau in an hon
est. simple, motherly fashion. Victor
Hugo does so in the manner of a grandiose
statue, into which, as Into Gaiatea, the
breath of life had been breathed. When
he has to do with a lady, he, with Olymp
ian majesty, tempered by chivalrous feel
ing. takes her hand slowly, gravely and
kindly, and. after holding it to his lips,
lower’s it to the level where it was when
he raised it.
The Cost of the Cholera Visitation.
fill Mall Budget.
It will be a nice problem for the sta
tistieians presently to determine what
the latest visitation of the cholera in
Europe has cost. A week or two ago it
was calculated that the quarantine had
already resulted in a loss of £1,600,000 to
the Italian revenue, and now the Span
iards have begun counting their bill of
costs. The falling off in customs since
quarantine was established had amounted
bv the end of August to close upon £250,-
000, while the value of the exports and
imports during the same period had shown
a decrease of £675,100. No wonder that
the corporations of Madrid and Barce
lona have petitioned the government
to take these facts into consideration.
/The Minister of Finance, finding that the
equilibrium of his budget was being seri
ously disturbed, has persuaded his col
leagues that it is time to have done with
the quarantine craze, and with the begin
ning of the present month the regulations
have accordingly been relaxed.
A Sign of Success.
Manchester Tunes,
While Verdi was putting the finishing
touches upon “II Trovatore” he was vis
ited in his study by a privileged triend,
who was one of the ablest living musi
cians and critics. The latter was per
mitted to glance over the score and try
the “Anvil Chorus” on the piano-forte.
“What do you think of that*” asked the
master. “Trash!” said the connoisseur.
Verdi rubbed his hands and chuckled.
“Now look at this, and this, and this,” he
said. “Rubbish!” The composer rose
and embraced his friend with joy. “What
do you mean by such strange conduct*”
asked the critical one. “May dear friend,”
responded the master, “I have been com
posing a ‘popular opera;’ in it I resolved
to please every body except the great
judges and classicists like you. Had I
pleased you, I should have pleased no one
else; what you 6ay assures me of success.
In three months ‘ll Trovatore’ will be
surg, and roared, and whistled, and bar
rel-organed all over Italy.” And so it
was.
