TIIE WORM) IX rOMMOTIOK.
The termination of the great Presidential'
campaign in.Aint'fiM has not given the prom
ised perxo© io otir own country ; as injustice
.nnd fraftd> in Righ-places arc daily bei’wrM'
ip<7»ed, which cannot result otherwise tfran in
itlift overthrow of the party nvnitr whose auspi
ces tliesc frauds liavc bo©w perpetrated. Rut
political agitations are no* confined to the
American continent which is quivering firm
-Canada to Patagonia with the pulsations of
revolutionary faction, oldest tleopotisnls
of the old World are shaking with the dements
of discontent which tlweatan-univorsal unarch y.
Already lias die ancient tlvrone of Spain hein
overthrowen, and tho late- (Vueen is in exile.
Napoleon 111. eon.scarcely retain his imperial
.neat. while the otlur leading powers of Europe
(ere watching each otlwr with jealous aye* and
•only aide by the shrewdest uuuiageui*»t to re
tain their nominal thrones. PolitiaaJ revolu
tions and convulsions of governin' nto r how
■ca'cr, are only a jwjrtion ol the coiuuwtiuM
wliich are now agitating the world. Ihe tel
egraph .is continually reporting the convulsions
of nature. But afew weeks since South Ame
rica was shaken over nearly its wliolc ex
tent. From California we hear of terrible
shocks, and another report tells of the threat
ening, tremulous shaking in England. And
still more recently the people of New Jersey
and South Carol!ns* have Sieon startled by un
mistakable shocks or regular earthquakes.—
Whether these manifestations are to culminate
in tho destruction of this little plun-et, or what
Ii theirtruc import,can on’y he surmised. The; e
h\s not been a period within the present cen
tury so fraught with fearfully threatening im
portance ns the present.
POLITICAL TOADYISM.
The Washington correspondent of the New
I'ork Iler-aU professes to have learned that the
leading Democrats propose to give Grant the
unanimous vote of the Electoral College. The
object of this movement, if indeed it is con
templated at all. is doubtless to conciliate the
favor of the incoming administration probably
with the ulterior design of securing some of
the spoils of office. It is truly desirable that
this toadying to success may be defeated, and
the integrity of tho Democratic party preserved.
Rather than compromise the principles of our
party by selling out to the Radicals, let us re
main forever in the minority. But onr cause
is right, and must triumph it cannot fait.—
Then shame on the recreants who would sell
their principles for paltry gain ! If Democra
cy ia.« a» far degenerated Cram its-JailfeTwniMt
purity that it can now he bought, it deserves
to be rejected by tlie people. And if Gen.
Grant can be cajoled by any such betrayal of
the popular trust on the part of the electors
be is a weaker man than ho has ever been
thought to be.
IDOLATRY.
From one of exchanges wc clip the following
paragraph :
“There is a real idol temple erected and
formally established in the United States, at
Portland, Oregon. The building is completed,
*nd the Chinamen are actively engaged fur
nishing it. Tho vestibule contains two. large oil
globes, inside of which lamps are burning, so
as to show to advantage the heathenish figures
ptioted on the outside. One of the transpa
rencies represents celestial warriors or saints,
some on foot and some on horseback, who go
round and round, propelled in some manner
current of heated air.”
There are plenty of idol temples on the At
lantic coast. The idols being rathci scarce poo
pic worship their paper representatives ; but
the fervor of their devotion is increased in pro
portion to the scarcity of their idols. The ori
ginal object of their adoration was a curiously
inscribed eireolar piece of white or yellow
metal; but as most of five worshpers have for
gotten tho appearance of the idol itself, they
manifest all the earnestness in tlxcir devotion
to their paper substitutes wliich the. orignal
idol would have have commanded.
CODA.
“We shall not bo surprised however, from
the present complexion of things,if the annexa
tion of Cuba ala Texas, is added to the {'lories
of Mr. Johnson’s administration, as the annex
ation of Texas was the crowning glory of the
blessed administration of John Tyler. —Herald
•of ike 14/it.
If this anticipation of the llcrald should
prove correct poor Cuba is to he pitied. In
stead of being the Gem of the Antilles, that
beautiful Island will become only another San
JJomingo.
OF COURSE.
The Radicals are already seeking to control
the -Congressional election in this State, by
military interference, ns will be seen by the
following dispatch from 11 ashington, on the
17th instant:
“ A special to the KTcw York Times says that
Messrs. Cliftf.R& Prince. Republican members
of Congress from Georgia, called at the Army
Headquarters to-day to represent the condition
of things in that State. They assert that there
was no protection at many nf the polls for loyal
men, at the -recent election, and that no lair
expression of the people can he had at the
election for Congressmen,.in February, without
the presence of additional troops.”
Meteoric Shower.
On Saturday morning last, the 14th Inst.,
from midnight till day the heavens were illu
minated by numerous meteors, presenting an
apjtearance described by those whe witnessed
it as beautifully grand. The light from many
of the shooting stars was so brilliant as to re
semble vivid lightning, while the halo where
they disappeared would frequently remainiimm
fifteen do.twenty minutes. Some appeared to
explode in mid-heaven, scattering in myriads
of sparks. -Such a sight is seldom witnessed
more than once in a generation.
A hill posted on the walls of a country vil
announces that i, a lecture will be de
wed in tU'‘ open air, and acolleetioo made at
e doer to defray expenses.”
Prentice and the Louisville Journal.
TlicHrelattons of Mr. George D. Prentice
with the Louisville (Journal have been for
some time an interesting topic of conversation
in-literary-circles.. From crliahlo parties wc
obtain tho following facts :
Mr. Henderson of the Journal did dismiss
Mr. Prentice from the paper he built, ami
I with which lie has been identified so many
years. This was perhaps an economical stroke
of business management on the part of Mr.
Henderson, but the effect was most astound
liigly different fr< m what li cexpe ted. Instead
of sowing-^4G a week—the amount' of poor
Prentice’s salary—lie found he had raised a
hornet's nest about his cars. The Board of
Trade and the citizens were up in a moment.
IT insures were inaugurated to withdraw all
patronage from the Journal, and to purchase
a complete outfit fora new paper, with a fund
to float it, and makfl a present to Mr. Prentice.
Fora few days Mr. Henderson was in a bloodv
svreat of apprehension, lie flew around like
a hen with her head’off, and mail# the most
abject apologies to Mr. Prentice, with over
tures for a resumption of amicable relation*.
Mr. Prentice nejeetod his overtures. In the
meantime Clnrence Prentice met Henderson,on
the street,and reminded him that when he(Cla
rence) sold out his Imrercst in the Journal, it
* wa» with tne distinct' understanding that his
father should have a salary of S4O a week du
ring life, whether he did anything to earn it
or not. This arrangement Mr. Henderson
had disregarded, ami young Prentice, in pur
suance of Kentucky chivalry, asked him if he
was armed. If not, he had better arm him
self, as it was the deliberate intention of Mr.
ClarenccPmatice to eviscerate and chaw lam lyi.
If coders!* said be was not armed aa*l’ ifid not
intend to I>e : that lie bad treated Prentice,
pert, shamefully, and wouldn't light Prentice,
file, on any terms. On the contrary, he had
made all the reparation he cowld to> the old
man, and negotiation* were pending which he
felt sure would make matters right. A Ken
tucky chivalry can’t eviscerate and chaw up a
man who refuses to arm himself, and so the
matter ended. Suitable arrangements have
been made, and Mr. Prentice-is again at work
on the Journal.— ludianajioli .* Mirror.

Our Aristocracy.
“Shoddy''Americans Abroad — Hou> They Act.
We wish tho Americans on the continent
would behave like the Seotch, whom on some
points they closely resemble,but theydon't. No
body in the world is quite so kindly or so toler
ant as the American who knows something,
hut there is a class of Americans just now in
Europe who are to experienced travelers the
most intolerable of mankind. American gen
tlemen say they are the “shoddy aristocracy,”
but they have uniformly three distinctive and
annoying (characteristics—boxes Tor which
they ought to pay rent, and not merely fares,
loud voices and had tempers. In a pretty
large acquaintance with Americans of all
grades, we declare that, except on the conti
nent, we never heard a loud voice or met a vis
ibly had temper, and their own description of
' themselves is that a valise, with a tooth comb
and two “dickeys” is too much luggage.—
Nevertheless, a class with tho peculiarities wo
have mentioned, in fact a class exactly resem
bling the English o" thirty years since, is
flooding the continent. Is ruining half its best
hotels, not by extravagance, but by the intro
duction of a bad tone, and in concentrating on
the Union all that angry distaste which for
so many years was felt and expressed
toward our own countrymen. The wildest
caricatures friends of the Smith ever painted
of Yankees arc weak descriptions of these
people, who are at last fortunately for us,
ceasing to bo mistaken for Englishmen. Who
they are, why they want half a dozen boxes
apiece, why they should always qunrrcl with
all service, what induces them to criticise the
guests of tables A'lcote in an audible veiccj;
above all, why they should be so invariably
cross, passes human comprehension. Ameri
cans at home or in England display none of
those foibles, and why a special class of them
should give themselves that reputation on the
continent remains to be explained. The evil
will pass away, but if some American satirist
would laugh his traveling compatriots out of
their “wavs,” as Englishmen have at last been
laughed by satirists out of theirs, he would
make the great routes far pleasanter to the
remainder of mankind.
Partisan Bullying.
Is it, or is it not, a human failing, going out
of each separate member, of the community
into the body politic itself, that seems to re
quire something or somebody to browbeat and
to bully ? It is related of the famous Missis
sippi duelist, McClung, that he came once
suddenly upon a person whom he had kicked
down stairs, perpetrating a similar outrage
upon another person, and that, on recalling
the circumstance, the man replied, “Ah, Colo
nel, you and me know who to kick!” Un
doubtedly a prudent discrimination is observed
by men and States in choosingJJ the object of
their persecution. They take good care that
they have the power before they undertake to
use it without stint. All experience shows
that the principle of domination is cowardly
and too often it is insolont and brutal. The
Republican party has exhibited this principle
in its most revoltingguise; for its manners have
been from the first indecent, its spirit proscrip
tive, and its conduct inhumane. It sought to
play the part of the conqueror, and it has
played it with all .its odious features. Fair
premises to the North ; false promises to the
Solitli; treachery to both, is its history. The
overthrow of liberty in the one section is now
complete. Let the other take care of itself,
|if it can. The first foot prints of imperialism
i are put at last upon the soil of North Ameri
•ea.—Lou. Cotu-Jour.

.ule on the Cottfu Tax.
Mr. Acting Vice President Wade was howl-*
ing on Politics the.other day in Cincinnati,
and uttered the subjoined howl upon tlie cotton
tax:
‘ You remember we put a tox upon cotton,
the only tl.iug under God's he'ifvcn by which
{ we «oultl. got anything out of the rebels, they
1 having rendered it necessary that wo should
! inour this great debt in defence of the govern-
I merit; and they howled about the tax on cotton
i and tlie whole Democracy of the North, out of
| Congress and in Congress, ion le swell an ounirr
against it, that they induced soft bended
| Republican* tw repeal it. The year Ixrfore we
i g.t about $28,000,OOf) out of that e.itJon tax,
! and it came out of the very men, of all others,
j that should give sonic of their substance to pay
off that accursed debt that we were forced to
I incur. Rut we threw iff that tux, and this
| year did not got one cent of it. I would not
| agree tn it. It was a magnanimity that degen
} orated into weakness. We ought to have made
them pay it, and this year we might have g"t:
$40,000,000, instead of $28,000,000, and let the
Democracy howl.
* * * Now, sir, is not this too bad?”
As brother Wade lias spoken his mind on
the subject, we would lito to hear from some
of tlie other brethren.
Strange Discovery.— A queer exhumation
was made in the Strip Vein Coal Rank of Capt.
Lacy, at Ilamniondsville, Ohio, one day last
week. Mr. James Parsons and his two sons
were engaged in makirg the bank, when a
huge mass of coal fell down disclosing a large
smooth slate wall upon the surface of which
we found carved .ip bold relief several lines of
hieroglyphics. Crowds Trove wisitod tf«e place
since the discovery, and wnany good etbalaiH;
have tried to dcc.p'ficr the characters but all
have failed. Nobody has been able to tell in
what tongue the words are written. How eamc
the mysterious writing in the bowels of the
earth, where probably no human eye has ever
penetrated? By whom and when was it writ
ten? There arc sevoral lines, about three
inches apart, the first containing twenty-fivo
words. Attempts have been made to remove
the slate wall and bring it out, but unon tap
ping the wall it gave forth a sound that would
seem to indicate the existence of a hollow chain-,
her beyond, and the characters would be des
troved in mnoveing it. At last accounts
Dr. Hartshorn, of Mount Union College, lad
been sent for to examine the writing,— W.lts

An old negro named Pete was much troub
led about" his sins. Perceiving him one day
with a downcast look, his master asked the
cause. “Oh, niassa, lam such a great sinner.” ■
“But, Pete,” said his master, “you are foolish
to take it so much to heart. You never see me
trouble about wiv sins.” “I know de reason,
maswt,” said Pete; “when you go out duck
shooting awd kill one duct and wound another
don’t you run after de wounded duck?”—
“Y’es, Pete,” and the vnaster wondered what
was coming next. “Well, ma-s-a, dvs de way
wid you and me, do debil lias got you sure ;
he is not sure of mo, —he eha-es dis child all
de time.”
In a letter, Mark Twain writes : “They
have a “revolution’ in Central America every
time the moon changes. All yon have to do
is to get out in the streets, in Panama or As
pinwall, and give a whoop, and the thing is
done. Shout,.down with the administration
and up with souioVrxh else, and revolution
follows. Nine-tenths of the people break for
home, slam the door behind them, and get un
der the bed. The other tenth go and overturn
the government and banish the. officials, fiom
President down to notary public. Then for
the next thirty days they inquire anxiously of
all comers what sort of a stir their little sliiv
arec made in Europe and America? 15y that
time the next revolution is ready to he touch
ed off, and out they go.”
Killing Made Easy. —A scientific discovery
Is reported from Turin, where Professor Cas
turnni, the celebrated oculist, has found away
of killing animals, by forcing air into their
eves, within the space of a few seconds, and
it is thought almost without earning them any
pain. Experiments were made at the Royal
Veterinary School, and it is said that they
have fully proved the truth of the Professor’s
invention. Within the space of a few minutes
four rabbits, three dogs, and a goat werekilled
in this inannet. The most remarkable thing
about the “killing made easy” is the fact that
it leaves absolutely no outward trace: and it
can be as easily applied to men as to ani
mals.
The earthquake in Ireland on October 24th
created the most intense excitement in the city
of Cork, although the shocks were not perceived
in the vicinity of that place. The effects of
the internal commotion of the earth were folt
at Newtown, within a few miles of Mallow, in
County Cork, and at several other places be
tween Mallow and Kanturk. The shocks were
accompanied with a loud, rumbling noise and
oscillation of the earth. Houses were shaken
from their foundations,“and in some instances
the furniture was thrown down and broken.
At the time the wind was blowing a perfect
hurricane.
Traveling by Mail.
The latest railroad scheme is the application
of the postage system to pnssengers. The in
ventor proposes that a human being like a let
ter, shall be dispatched to any point for a one
dollar, two dollar, or three dollar stnmp, as a
third, second,or first class train shall be prefer
red. The inventor produces statistics to show
that this marvelous cheapness, in view of the
immense increase of travel, mar be realized.—
AVliat is added to the expense of transportation
by the weight of a passenger compared with
that of a letter, is saved in tho cost of delivery
the passenger delivering himself.

A Noteworthy Fact. —-The election ®o the
3d inst., so far as heard from, satisfactorily
establishes a fact creditable to the good sense
of the negroes as it is ominous to the Radical
party of the North, who think they have a claim
upon the entire race—soul, body and breeches.
It is that a very large proportion of the colored
voters sided with their section and Its people.
It is so now, and tlie proportion is destined to
increase with every election under the univer
sal suffrage system, thereby proving beyond
a doubt that that portion of our population can
never be made subservient to the schemes of a
Northern sectional party. We shall not be
surprised to find the North the very next to
make war on negro suffrage, as an element of
power m the bands of the South.— Sav. lop.
Setehell, the onaiediun, says he was pre-ent

: upon the hack lie ex claimed, ‘Well, old boss,

What kind of a ha«s. pray ?’ Why an old draft

It is sta'ed that General Grant received the
news of his election to the Presidency with a

quarters that the Radicals will receive his in
augural message with a flea in their ears.
