late elections.
Prom Texas conics flic glad tidings that she has
jgouc Democratic by n large minority—electing
a still Democratic delegation to Congress. And
Trom Savannah comes the good cheer that in the
Municipal contest last Monday the Democrats were
Victorious by at least 2,000 majority. In Pennsyl
vania the Democrats have made large gains, while
the reports from Ohio are conflicting. The tirst
dispatehes claim a Democratic victory, while the
latest state that Republicans claim from thirty to
forty thousand majority, and on joint ballot by 12
to 15 majority.
GREAT FIRE IN CHICAGO.
The telegraph brings us the terrible details
•of the great fire which has laid the city of
Chicago in ashes.
On Saturday last a firo broke nut in the
Southeast portion of the city, which raged
with great fury until a late hour at night be»
Tore it was subdued, destroying about half a
million dollars worth of property. On Sunday
•night, about nine o'clock, another fire broke
■out in the Western District, distant some two
miles from the Court House. A terrific gale
was blowing at the time, and the flames spread
rapidly, sweeping whole blocks of buildings
away, and defying the efforts of the firemen
and citizens to arrest its progress. The flying
firebrands filled the air, threatening destruc
tion everywhere, and kindling additional fires
for miles around, causing the total destruction
of everything perishable within its onward
inarch. The hotels, hanks, printing offices,
grain elevators, shipping, telegraph officers,
nil, wero swept nwny by the fire demon. By
Monday noon, over 10.000 buildings had been
destroyed, and the fire had burned over a dis
tance of five miles, in length, and one mile
in width. More than 150.000 people were
made homeless in the short space of a few
hours. The loss in property cannot be cor
rectly ascertained, but is estimated at not less
than $300,000,000. The loss of human life is
very great —whole families in many instances
being burned. Many firemen were killed or
injured by falling walls and flying debris.
Truly, tho terrible hand of retribution has
been heavily laid upon that doomed city, and
the burning of Atlanta and Columbia, by
Federal soldiers, have been fearfully atoned
for. While wo feel and deeply simpatbizo
with these unfortunate people in this great
calamity which has just befallen them, yet, as
memory slowly lifts the curtain from the faco
of the dead past, our eyes turn and our heart
grows sick at the spectacle our own loved
Georgia presented after “Sherman’s march to
the Sea.” They sowed their wicked seed, and
verily they have reaped what they so treely
scattered abroad. It is unpleasant to remem
ber or refer to these things, but, “when the
future dares forget the past,” then, and not
till then, will we cease toreraembor the crimes
which was committed against our people.
Chicago was a great city, and contained over
300.000 inhabitants. Its growth has been
almost magical. The shipping interest of
Chicago was probably greater than that of any
interior city in the world. Her exports of
grain amounted to many millions of dollars
per annum. She had a manufacturing inter
est not excelled by any of the great cities, of
the West. But she is cut down in the midst
of her prosperity. A hundred thousand of
her manufacturing laborers have been render
ed homeless, and thrown out of employment.
The whole country must suffer from the fall of
Chicago. Her business ramifications extended
-over the whole of the Nortnwestern States,
and thousands of business men all over the
land, we fear, will go down, or suffer terribly,
"financially, through the destruction of Chicago
and the ruin of her enterprising merchants.
HJo such calamity has befallen any people
since the burning of Moscow, or the great fire
in London. But let us hope that a few years
will again behold her on the high road to
prosperity.
Thousands of dollnrs have been contributed
to the relief of the suffering, by her sister
cities, and the Government is distributing
rations to the many thousands of her people
that are homeless and penniless. The South
is yet too impoverished to contribute much to
their relief ; but the generous hearts of the
Southern people need no prompting to render
all the material aid in their power to the un
fortunate victims of that terrible calamity.
Adroitly Hit.
A correspondent of the Herald and Presby
ter writes from Minnesota the following:
'I have picked up 'a little story which I
think too good a reproof for disturbers of the
peace in churches to bo lost. A presiding
elder of the United Brethren Church was
pleaching in this same neighborhood, and was
much annoyed by persons talking and laugh
ing. He paused, looked at the disturbers, and
said, ‘I am always afraid to reprove those who
misbehave in church. In the early part of my
ministry I made a great mistake. As I was
preaching, a young man who sat just before
me was constantly laughing and making un
couth grimaces. I paused and administered a
severe rebuke. After the close of the service
one of the official members came and said to
me, ‘Brother , you made a great mistake.
That young man whom you reproved is an
idiot.’ Since then I have always been afraid to
reprove those who misbehave in church lest I
should repeat that mistake, and reprove another
idiot.’ During the rest of that service at least
there was good order.
The editor of the New York Phrenobgical
Journal recently wrote to lion. A. 11. Stephens
as to the size of bis head. Mr. S. respond
ed as follows : ‘Height, five feet ten inches;
circumference of head, twenty-two and a quar
ter inches; waist, twenty-four and a hall inches:
usual weight previous to recent illness, eighty
nine pounds.; present weight, seventy-five
pounds.
A LEA. H. STEPHENS.
An Admirer’s View ol the Great States
man.
[To the Editor Louisville Courier-Journal.]
An editorial several dnvs since did ample
justice to Mr. Stephens in some respect. His
past career needs no vindication from any
man's hands, fur he ho* been as true as steel
to the interests of his S'ate anil of his country.
Tt is gratifying to see proper courtesies extend
ed to such a great man bv the younger jour
nalists, who were children when his name
bore a world-wide reputation. However you
may differ from his views, a mutual friend
trusts thatyouroolnmns wiP never he tarnished
by slighting words or disrespectful remarks
toward one who deserves so much gratitude
from all the people of the Sooth. Mr, Steph
ens has Ireen somewhat nusyn'derstood by you
*>d others. Tie is not a schismatic—not an
impracticable, not a rebel against Democratic
authority, not an indirect ally of Radicalism.
If there is an object dearer than any other to
the heart of Mr. Stephens It is the overthrow
of that party and the lelcase of his people
from the thraldom which now crushes them.
The only difference oF opinion between you
and Mr. Stephens is in regard to a FUTURE
event. You assume that the opinion of t' e
Democratic party is clearly in favor of avoid
ing past issues and in favor of submitting to a
destiny which we cannot avoid. Per contra ,
Mr. Stephens alleges that the Democratic faith
is laid down in the platform of 18118, which,
like legal enactments, must stand until the
convention of 1.572 alters, modifies or repeals
it. And you both liavo the fullest latitude to
discuss it, and tn present ynur different views
of the subject. Whether it would not have
been far wiser to have deferred all such dis
cussion and to have submitted the whole sub
ject to the authoritative decision of the conven
tion, is a question only to be settled by the
results. Nobody has a right to object to venr
honest expression of views and policy. And
all these domestic differences should be gov
erned by good temper, good breeding and mu
tual forbearance. In the discussion for the fu
ture let us hope that hard names will he for
borne, and that, whatever our convention may
in its wisdom devise, the masses will give it a
unanimous and zealous support. As to Mr,
Stephens, you can take my word for it. that he
will support with all his vigor and intellect
any man or any platform, Democratic in prin
ciple, which does not commit the party to an
approval of the usurpation of the party in power,
and which does not pledge the party to silence
discussions touching them hereafter. The
Constitution is subject to revision and altera
tion at all times by proper methods. And it
i» scarcely possible that any convention of Dem
ocrats would either indorse the despotic acts
of the Radical party, or pass ar.y resolution
abridging tbe right hereafter to amend five
Constitution, and to discuss those propositions
before the people. The present generation
may acquiesce in the wrong done. They can
not bind the nest one to submit as unqualifiedly.
We want no acrimony in our ranks. You are
as good a Democrat as any ‘Bourbon’ so-called,
and the latter is fufly as good in the faith as
you, so long as you both bow to the will of the
majority duly expressed in authorized council.
Mr. Stephens >s an astute man. We need his
counsels, his perspicacity, his judgment, bis
experience of fifty years, Looking at the past
you will find that he never made a programme
for any party election, wliether county, district,
State or United Staies, that in a single case led
to defeat. He had more to do in the pro
gramme for General Taylor and Mr. Buchanan
than any other ruan. If he is wrong in his
views, there is no man living who can more
readily porceive his error or more willingly
repair it. And, when the convontion assem
bles, there will be no man more potent to har
monize differences, and to suggest compromises
honorable to all, than this same Georgia Steph
ens. Don’t therefore, in (he heat of discussion,
misunderstand one of our truest, friends, nor
say anything which you might aftei wards re
gret. ***
September 16th, 1871.
McMuhon’s Bravery.
We have already mentioned tiie recent dec
laration, publicly made by Marshal McMa
hon, that the Emperor was not responsible for
the disasters of the campaign of 1870 ; that
he assumed no command and gave no direc
tions; that neither he nor his Ministers at
tempted to control the operations of the army
in the field, excopt by advice ; which could be
followed or not; and that he, McMahon was
entirely and solely responsible for the march
from Chalons and the disasters which fol
lowed.
Speaking of this declaration the Paris corres
pondent of the New York Times says;
‘Since the beginning of the war there' has
been no act which equals in bravery this act
of Marshal McMahon. To make such a de
claration in the face of popular sentiment, re
quired a moral courage of the highest order.
The blow thus given to the officers who hasti
ly rushed into print to justify themselves by
throwing the blame upon their sovereign or
upon some brother officers, was a severe but
well norited one. Gen. Winr.pffen and the
rest now hang their heads for shame, and try
to defend themselves by abusing McMahon, or
by raising a feeling against him by calling
him an Imperialist. But the Marshal is too
strong in the hearts of his soldiers ; and, be
sides, it was not a question of party but of
historical facts, sworn to upon honor before
the world.’
When the Prussians during the war ap
proached the city of Rouen the French threw
into the Seine many fine pieces of cannon.
These are now all being raised, but most of
them are found to have become worthless by
their long immersion in the water.
The Boston Times declares that Gen. But
ler is a ‘safeguard in which the people of Mas
sachusetts can confide.' The people everywhere
else declares that he is a blackguard in which
nobody can confide.
Incidents of the Chicago Fire.
’ Offe of the most pitiful sights was that of a
middle-aged woman on State street, loaded
with bundles, struggling through a crowd,
singing the Mother Goose melody, ‘Ohickey,
chickey erany crow ; I went to the well to wash
ray toe,’ &c.’
There were hundreds of others likewise dis
tracted and many made desperate bv whisky
or beer which, from excess of thirst, they
drank, in the absence of water, in groat quan
tifies, who spread themselves in every direc
tion a terror to all the" met.
Tt is fearful to think of the loss of life. Tt
is conjectured with good cause that more than
500 persons have been burned to death. We
saw four m»n enter a burning building, and
in a moment they worn overwhelmed by a fall
ing wall.
There wa« a crowd of men around the corner
of a building trying to save property when,
the wall yielding, some were buried beneath it.
About twelve or fifteen men. women and
children rushed into the building of tho Ilis
torial Society, a fire-proof building, for safety.
In a few minutes tbe flames burst up, and they
were burned to death. Among those who took
refuge in this building was the venerable f!ol.
Samuel Stone, 80 years old, and for a long
time connected with tho Society. Also John
B, Gerald and Nj/e. and Madame Do Belgrave,
a noted teacher of -n«»ic.
It is feared that Dr. Frear and family were
also burned, as they wero in the building and
have not been
Mrs. Edsall, whose husband was murdered
last week, and who was suffering from an ill
ness, was carried for protection to a building
which was afterwards burned, and it'is. Seared
she also perished.
All the books and papers of the historical
society, including tho original copy of the fa
mous Emancipation proclamation of President
Lincoln, for which the society paid $25,000,
are destroyed.
It is feared that a large number of children,
inmates of the Catholic Orphan Society on
State stieet, were also burned, as many of
them .are missing.
On Chicago Avenue a father rushed up
stairs to carry three children away, wh»n he
was overtaken by the flames and perished with
them. The mother was afterwards seen on the
street a raving maniac.
In the same neighborhood a family of five
persons perished.
The list of such fatalities is very large, and
can only be fully verified afier the sne ke shall
have cleared away.
llow Ben. Butler Received His Defeat.
The scene of Butler's defeat is thus sketched
bv the correspondent of the New York Herald :
‘As in the afternoon so it was at night. Gen.
Butler occupiod a sent just at the right of the
hall and at tbe left of the chairman, sitting on
tbe front row of scats like the other delegates
of the convention. The ball was packed, as
it was during the day. Everybody was there,
many people standing up, and ttiere was a
great deal of gopd humored excitement. Much
preliminary talk occured before tlm report of
the Committee on Credentials, which decided
that the w hole number of delegates from three
hundred and forty one cities and towns was
one thousand one hundred and six, but that
there wore several contesting delegations. A
great deal of debate followed, ending in a test,
vote upon the question of the admission of the
Butler delegation from Ward Six in Boston.
This vote was taken by counties, each man
rising in his place and standing until he was
counted. The process was a tedious one and
consumed a great deal of time. Butler sat on
the platform in tire meantime, with Ids lingers
nervously at work twitching Ids mu-tache. —
Ilia face reddened as county after county polled
heavily against him, but lie manifested no other
signs of emotion. The total was finally an
nounced as 1,067 votes—for the Butler candi
dates, 460 ; against the Butler candidates, 607
—or an anti-Butler majority of 147 votes.—
This declaration was received with loud cheer
ing, w hich continued for several minutes, and
was regarded as the death-knell to Butler's
hopes of a nomination. A moti in to proceed
at once to a formal ballot for Governor was
passed.
‘Voting was proceeded with, resulting as
follows: Whole number es votes, 1,116: nee
esary to a choice, 595; Wjn. B. Washburne,
of Greenfield, had 643; Benjamin F. Butler,
of Gloucester, had 464; and Mr. Washburne
was declared the nomineeof the convention.
,‘Round after round of cheers, with tigers,
greeted announcement of the result. Gen,
Butler looked as if he was trying to sink into
his boots. lie finally recovered his self-pos
session, and smiled a ghastly smile as he got
up to speak. He was loudly cheered as lie
played with his watch chain for a moment be
fore bis thoughts gained utterance. After
which he declared lie would support the nomi
nation.’
—-- o -
Onions Prescribed for Coughs. —An anony
mous writer says: ‘We are often troubled
with severe coughs, the result of colds of long
standing, which- may turn to consumption or
premature death. Hard coughs cause sleepless
nights by constant irritation in the throat, and
a strong effort to throw off offensive matter
from the lungs: The remedy I propose has
been often tried by me, with good results,
which is simply to take into the stomach before
retiring for the night, a piece of raw onion,
after chewing. This in an uncooked state is
very heating, and tends to collect the waters
from the lungs and throat, causing immediate
relief to the patient.’
Col. Lewis' W. Washington, the nearest blood
relation of George Washington, died at Charles
ton, West Virginia, on the Ist inst., in the
fifty-ninth year of his age. He was the first
man taken prisoner by John Brown during his
raid into Virginia, and was rescued from tho
old engine house when Brown surrendered to
the United States troops under the command
of the then Col. Robert E. Lee.
A child five years old has been found in the
Baltimore jail charged in the criminal docket
with being “a common thief.”
Terrible Death.
Alfred A. R iso, a In 1 of eleven years, a son
of tho head miller in an Ogdonsburg flouring
mill, mot his death by smothering in a wheat
bin letelv. The Ogdonsburg Journal says:
Tho wheat bins of the mill are about twen
ty feet deep, and it happened that they wore
drawing grain from tho one in which vnung
Rose lost his life at the time of the accident.
He had gone to the mill loft with some other
boys. He jumped into the hin for the purpose
of getting some whoat, thinking to c'imb out
by a Udder built upon tho posts on one side
of the bin, hut was drawn into tbe current
produced bv the grain going toward the snoot
from which the wheat was delivering. When
the other lads saw him disappenr from sight
they ran below and gave tho alarm. The
spout was closed at once. and som" of the men
ran up to the loft and descended into the bin,
but their search was unavailing, tho lad having
disappeared from sight. Seeing the difficulty,
the ppouts on the opposite side of the hin wore
opened, and about four thousand bushels of
wheat run out upon the wn -chouse floor before
the body was recovered. The first thing dis
covered was a tip end of a finger, when it was
ascertained that he was standing upright,
with both hands raised above his head.
Frnm the time he disappeared under tho grain
until his body was recovered was fully twenty
minutes, and life was entirely extinct. llis
mouth and nostrils were filled with wheat.—
ITe was a fine, promising lad, loved by all who
knew him.
Radical Rascality Returning to Plague
the Party, —The case of the Ohio clerks in
tho Departments at Washington is rather hard.
Generally it has been regarded that their vot
ing place is where they came from ; for in our
beautiful system of rotation no clerk can con
sider himself m ire than a temporary sojourner.
But last spring all bands were wanted to save
tho country in the Washington election, and
so, at the command of the managing politicians,
the clerks were required to register and vote
there. This surely is a way to secure that the
Administration party shall always carry the
capital election. But now the Ohio clerks are
wanted to save the country by voting at home,
and their registry there stops them. We shall
have to hold responsible the smart managers
who, for the petty election of a Council for the
District, used up this Republican voting ele
ment of Ohio.—Cincinnati Gazette (Rep.) Oc
tober 3.
A Sad Affair in West Virginia. —The
Point Pleasant (West Virginia) Register states
that on Thursday afternoon last Richard Pick
ins, residing in Graham township, Mas- n conn
tj, undertook to chastise his son. when the
mother interfered, and he kicked her in the
side. She fell and expiroij 6 in three minutes.
A little daughter, thirteen years of age, was
sc affected by the tragic death of her mother
that she procured a case-knife and cut her
throat, A physician sewed up the gash soon
after, but she ripped it open again, and at last
accounts was In a critical condition.

Trust What Time has Sanctioned.
The, maxim that the voice of the people is
the voice of the divinity, mav in some oa«es,
he open to doubt, but the testirnonv of honest
and enlightened witnesses extending through
a series of rears, and all to the same purport,
is worthy es credence, admits of no question.
Upon sneh testimony the reputation of ITos
tetter's Stomach Bitters as an antidote and
cure for many ailments is based, During the
twenty years that it has before the world,
innumerable preparations intended to compete
with it, have gone up like rockets-, and come
down like the extinguished sticks. Meanwhile
the progress of that incomparable tonic has
been swift nnd steady—always upward and
onward like the eagle's flight. Its introduc
tion produced a revolution in therapeutics, nnd
it proved to he one of those salutary revolutions
that cannot go back wards. To-day llostQtter’s
Bitters is one of the most popular remedies in
Christendom, and commands a larger sale than
any other medicinal preparation, domestic or
imported, on this side of the Atlantic. Asa
cure for dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous
affections, general debility, and as a preventive
of epidemic fevers, it takes precedence of every
other remedy. This fact should tench the
ainbitous country dealers who endeavor to
foist their local abortions on the public in its
stead, how futile their small attempts to cajole
the community must necessarily be. Where
the game fish have failed there is no chance
for the ‘suckers.’—lm47

Dr.Brndfield s Female Regulator is the only

THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
—The prime cause of Consumption i« derange,
ment of the digestive organs. This derangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation, Bt
assimilation I mean the process bv which the nu
triment of tbe food is converted into blood, and
thence into the solids ot the bodv. Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre.
disposition to pulmonary di-ease, or it they take
cold, will be verv liable to have Consumption n|
the Lung- in some of its forma; and I hold that it
will he impossible to cure any caseol Consumption
without first, restoring a good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very first thing to he doneiato
cleanse tiie stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, w'-i- h is cloggingthe-oorgansw
that they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy action.
For tliis purpose the surest and he-t remedy is
Sehenek’s Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels of all the dead and morbid
slime that is causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They will clear out the liver of all dis
eased bile that lias accumulated there, nnd rmue
it, up to anew and healthy action, hy which na
tural and healthy bile-is secreted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are tints cleansed
by the use of Sehenek’s Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach an excess of arid, the
organ is torpid and file appetite poor. In tlr‘bow.

and its us-* will neutralize all excess ot acid, malt

the first process of a good digestion, and ultimately
make good, healthv. living hlnod. After this pre
paratory treatment, what remains to cure mart
eases of Consumption is the tree and persevering
11 -f* of .Sehenek’s Pulmonic Syrup. The Balmont
Svrup nourishes tiie system, purifies the blood,
and is readiiv absorbed into the circulation, ural
thence distributed to ttio diseased lungs. Th-rett
ripens all morbid matters, vl, -ther in the found
abscesses or tubercles, and then assists Satnreto
