The Democracy have several very sig •R'l advantages in the present l’resid* n tial campaign. These are so numerous, and so powerful, that the certainty of tne party to elect their national ticket is assured. This assurance, however, is coupled with the condition that there be no blundering, no mismanagement. The first advantage possessed by the Democracy is in the quality of the can didate. Herein the odds arc largely against the opposition. The Republican ticket lacks balance, being much the weightier in the less considerable candi date. So far as propriety is concerned, Wheeler should be at the head, in place of the tail, of the .combination. This lack of balance does not occur in the Democratic ticket. The!Democratie ticket is superior in another personal respect —one which is of immense support of the saliant char acteristics of the two leaders. Ilayes is a wholly negative character. He is remarkable, not for what he has done, but for his singular and persistent reoord for having done nothing. On the other hand, Mr. Tilden is aggressive. He is a leader. All his public life is hi tailing with salient points. Where Ilayes lias been quiescent, he has been active. Where the one has been led, the other has been a leader. The one is positive, the other negative. These are differen ces which tell in all cases where masses are to be handled, where men are to be moved to action. All through the fight the BtipiueneßS of the one will he con trasted with the dan and energy of the other. Men vote as they fight. The magnetism of a great leader, in either case, excicisos a tremendous influence upon the result. Perhaps the greatest advantage pos sessed by the Democracy is in the condi tion of the country. Republicanism lias controlled it for sixteen years, and the result of a situation for which history furnishes no parallel, Industry is at a low ebb j the country is full of uncm pleyed laborers ; business is prostrate ; taxation excessive, aud malversation in office the rule, rather than the exception. It is only since the Democrats obtained a majority in the House, that the tre mendous extent of Republican frauds has become apparent, Jt has been shown that almost every Republican officehold er is an official thief. Everywhere, from Washington to the remotest frontiers, from the custom bouse in New Orleans to the revenne officers in Chicago. Re publicanism has been engaged in bold robbery, in downright swindling, Cab inet Ministers, Senators, postmasters, collectors, gangers, or what not, wherev er there has been a Republican offieia’, there has nearly always been found a Republican thief. These facts are understood by the people They see tint th" ‘’o'lt.h : = not OOXYKRS. G-A..

They will sav ? “Matters can not certainly be worse than now, under Democratic rule ; they may he better. Give ns a change ot administration.” Still other advantages acrue to the Democracy, among which is the Mongo lian plank in their platform. Whether founded in justice or not, the Democratic assertion in regard to Asiatic immigra tion is sure to carry the electoral vote of ' the Pacific slope. It may lie that this advantage is one which will bo gained at the expense of some of our cardinal principles relative to human rights; nevertheless, as the cost will be paid in the golden coin of votes, it will have a substantial value in settling the results of the pending elections. These are some of the advantages on the side of the Democratic party. They are amply sufficient to secure the election of the Democratic candidates, providing ! there, shall be no serious blundering in | the management of the campaign. As the leader of the Dnnocralic hosts is a captain of supreme ability, it is certain that, if there is no mismanagement, it will be among subordinates. Neverthe less. such is the temper of the people, that it is only supreme folly which can throw away an overwhelming victory.— Chicago 7'tines. Tildeii Among the Figures iuil tlie Hogues. llis opponents, his rivals, and his sup porters being judges, Gov. Tilden has, with the possible exception of De Witt Clinton, been more completely the bead of the State administration than any man who ever filled the Executive chair of New York. Some have complained that he relies too much npon himself. Certainly, then, he deserves the chief credit for all the good that has been achieved in our public affairs since lie took control ol them. During the past eighteen months Gov. 1 ilden has originated and carried through measures that have reduced our canal Xpendittires at tao rate of two and a lialf millions of dollars annual)*; Re sides this, he has initiated i line of pol io) that lias exposed and broken up a chionicsystem of frauds whereby the State, for years past, ins been robbed of large amounts ot its canal revenues. He lias set at defiance and driven out of the field a horde of contractors who had been long accustomed to do work on tile canals that was either not needed at all or was performed at rales ruinous to the State. He has carefully watched the proceedings of the Legislature, and his warning voice has frightened away many jobbers, while by his veto he has in two sessions reduced the appropri ations for general purposes about a mil lion of dollars. And during his term ol office, and mainly because of his meas ures, the State taxes have been cut down nearly or-.e-half* Here is a kind of reform that every body cau understand and all honest men will appieciate and applaud. Wo need his sort of reform at Washington during the next four years. We don’t want rhetoricians, who deal in sounding phrases about reform i hut practical work ers after the manner of Srm Tilden, who solve the problem of financial reform by reducing expenditures and diminishing taxes. Mr. Tilden hardly has hiu match for wading through long columns of com plicated figures and discovering extraya gances, uncovering frauds, and detecting rogues, The old Tammany Kjng and the more punning Canal Ring will bear tes timony to this. Tim national Govern ment will afford wide scope for the dis play ot Gov. Tilden’s genius in a field which lie has cultivated with so mueh success in New York. Every real friend of administrative reform will had the day syhen hp goes to work ne.\t March upon the statistics aud the scoundrels at Washington.—[N. Y.

Columbia (S. C,) Register In a re cent speech Delivered in the House of Representatives, R. 1!. Vance, member of Congress from North Carolina, said 1 die first discovery ot gold in the United States, was made in .Mecklenburg, in that Stale, in 1821). A correspondent of a North Carolina newspaper corrects this statement, saying that the first gold was found in Cabarrus in 1799, and refers to^Wheeler’s ‘History ot North Carolina’ tor evidence. Old chroniclers give an account of a province called Cofacliujui, which was visited by De feotos go’d-lnmiiiig ex pedition in 1538-40, and which was af terwards the States of Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi and, according to Logan, in his history of ‘Upper Car olina,’ [had its centre on the western limits of South Carolina, Its capital and chief town s'ood upon the tongue ot land between the Broad River, ot Georgia, and the Savauah, just opposite the modern district of Abbeville. The Spaniards entered this capital after a two months march, and found the coun try ruled by a beautiful Indian <piecn. Xtialln, who entertained the Spanish Governor null army with much ceremo ny. Here they found hatchets formed from an alloy of gold and copper. By this their cupidity was greatly excited and they'concluded that they had tout) 1 a country abounding in the long-coveted precious deposits of gold. And so in deed they had, says Logan (whom we quote freely,) but it was neither their good fortune nor their desert to find out the precise spot where they can be ob tained. In less than fitteeu miles south east of the town, on the opposite or Caro lina side of the river,lay one of the most, extraordinary gold deposits in the world The CheroKees were well acquainted with the locality of the Dorn mine. This is shown by the numerous relics of their 1 handiwork scattered around it, and there can be little doubt that th i massy nug gets of its out-crnnpMor • > “ fliem aounonntly with the finer metal of the alloy that so attracted the eyes ot the Spaniards. It is no less known to a few who have inquired into the tralitions of the aborigines, that the gold and copper found in their possession, in the form ot solid masses and curious trinkets, by the first white men who visited the conn, try, weie obtained by them from these resources. The Indian method of smelting these metals was one of the most lvm.iakable devices of savage ingenuity in practical efficiency, the famous blow pipe of Dr. Hare was scarcely superior. Logan tells us that having first hollowed out a flat stone in the shape of a basin, they filled it with charcoal, and upon this laid the nuggets of metal; A number ot Indians now seated themselves annul the basin, each one having in Ids hand a long reed pierced through its entire length and armed at ope end with a c'ay tube or pipe. Everything being ready, fire was applied to fhe charcoal, and the whole mass instantly blown into a powerful heat through the reeds, the clay extremities of which were inserted in the basin, while the Indians blew through them upon the charcoal with all their might, and with protracted expiration. No or dinary lump at either gold or copper could long maintain its solidity in such a crucible, With this process the Indi an couffi easily produce any variety of ornament fyom thesp metals, using I hem either alone or in all jy, Tpia method was known to have been in use among the Indiana who lived upon tho gold producing lands ot North Carolina, and the same process mast have been known to the Gherokees, Gov- Hendricks is now in has 57th year~a hale, erect, handsome, amiable gentleman, well-preserved, well-man nered, and well-intentioned.

Sprwgffeßi BepuMican- A demure looking chap hailed a char** coal pedler with the query, Wave yon got charcoal in your wagon ?’ ‘Yes, b ir,’ said the expectant driver; stopping his horses ‘That’s light,’ observed the demure chap, with an approving nod ; ‘always tell the truth, and people will respect you!’ and he hurried on, much to the regret of the pedler, who was getting oat of the wagon to look for a brick. Grant Furious, Ihe u| ter break down of the third term scheme, and the indirect rebuke to it which Hayes’s conscience keepers in serted in his letter of aewpta.ce, have contributed, with other stimulating can. ses, to make Grant violent in his lan guage and acts, lie has not pretended to conceal or temper his wrath, as he did while ho was a candidate lor ref lection, and was intriguing to bring about bis third nomination. Restraints which i hen commanded prudence are now broken and he feels free to have his own way, the more so for having been curbed by reasons of State and party policy un’.il the bondage became unendu rable. Of course ho feeln keenly the criticism, which indirectly made bv Hayes’s letter. Because it the civil service reform is so urgent as alleged, it necessarily follows*tlmt the object is to I correct abases ot Grant’s administrtion. At least that is his constiaction of the language. The resent clearing out of the of ficials who were most trusted in the 1 1 casury, and who <1 i*l most to redeem it, from disgrace, i., the result of this explosion of anger at what Grant calls bad Detriment by the party. He claims to have saved it from certain defeat in 18(18 and 1872 ; and therefore he was entitled to a third term; More than that, he complains that after having yielded his patronage and often his poli cy, to the Senate and House of Repre sentatives, he was not sinVaiiicd as he should have been by those who owed him gratitude and devotion. At all events G"ant has resolved to beabsahite master fora while, and to turn the public service upside down, in order to gratify his personal resentments and to reward hjs trusted adherents. He is at last seeu in bis true character. AH along be lias been wearing a mast and playing a part.

This fever will subside gradually, and Giant, after the heated term is over, will fall into line like a regular, and for get his grievances. Chandler and Robe son, who are his special chums in the Cabinet, will win him over to their phns and tiling about an understanding with Hayes, by which every concession will be made and the best relations secured. Grant is cunning. It is his stong point.

An Anecdote of Sun tag. M hen the celebrated singer, Henrietta Sonlag began he-r musical career alio was subjected to the same annoyance and struggles that rising talent generally funis obstriming its pathway as it would race over the burning sands ot life to the haven of fame and fortunes. Never* thclcsa her debut in Vienna was inoat brilliant, spite of the enormous sea ot opposition that greeted her, yet the en couraging roar of the lions could >k entirely drown the hlvdug of the snakes. One ot the moat venomous ot these was the tailing la tori to of the public, but still powerful rtral, Amelia Steinin. ger, whose vocal octave had been consid erably broken and reduced by dissipation but she counted scores of admirers .who were ready to defend her position ho,- every means, fair or foul, in their power*, and eventually succeeded in driving the dangerous rival of their‘Stein'ngcr’from the field. Chagrined, if not humiliated, Sontag [left Vienna harboring anything but friendly feelings towards Amelia Stoin mgor. One morning some years later, while she was in the glory of her tri umph, singing with the tenor, Jager, and the never-to-be-forgotten buffo, Spitze der, at tho Royal Theatre, Berlin, B(heu. riding along one of the main stmts C 4 Berlin she was attracted by hearing an Austrian song, f; miliar from childhood ami home, sung on the street corner by a little girl about six years old, who led 'by the hand a forlorn looking blind woman. It was a sad twtd touching air, and the happy cmtwtice immediately ordered her coupe to be hulled, called the little singer to her and said : ‘What is your name, my wee Austrian echo f ‘Nannie,’ tho child replied, with a strange Vienna accent. ‘And who is the woman with you t* ‘My poor, blind mother, lady,’ ‘And what is her nainuT’ ‘Amelia Sleiuinger, l/vly, 1- ‘Amelia Steiuinger!' exclaimed Soptag. in greatest surprise. ‘Yes, lady, my mother was a great singer in Vienna long ago, but she lost her voice, and then she wept W> much ihat the light went out of her eyes; then our friends turned away from us, and when that was also gone we were ob liged to beg onr way or die of hunger,’ Tears welled from the kind and gen erous heart ot tho fortunate woman aa, she listened to the pathetic story ot the little one—tears of genuine sympathy,, who gathered about her” like sattellites around their star. ‘Gentlemen,’ said she, tho pearling drops of liearUdno glistening in her beautiful eyes, ‘permit in 4 here oil this, public place to lake up a collection {of an unhappy sister whom God has seen fit (o lake liis greatest gitt—the gift ot fight. Hero is my purse ; do not allo’V it to remain oorapanioulees in the hands of this poor child.’ In an instant the gold and silver rain ed upon the overjoyed little girl, who imagined an angel had come to relieve tier mother from poverty and care. ‘Now, tell me, Nannie, where do you, live ?’ The child gayc the address. ‘Give your mother my love, and toll her her old friend Hcnrietlo Sqptftg vtM do herself the pleasure of hunting her up this afternoon and have a little chat with her. Crying for joy, the child ran to her mother with her good luck, and repeated Soiling’s words, but 6be could not un derstand the violence of the impetuous burst of tears that fell from the blind eyes, to ho followed by the remorseful sobbing of her who once drove this ben efactress Irom her native cRy with hisses. Sontag came according to promise, bringing a skillful occulist, who after examination, shook his gray head. He had nq relief for the black cataract that had up tq titqe obstiqately rented, skill. Wilh delicate consideration the con versation was led from the subjects that would recall those days iu Vienna, With heartfelt expressions of good will •Sontag left her former enemy aud rival. The following week a rousing benefit* ‘lor a distressed artist’ was given, Son tag’s Iphigenie filling the house and also the purse ot tho blind woman. Until her death, Ueurictte Sontag cured floy her, then her daughter became her grateful protege, and received a liberal education that fitted her for au inde pendent future.
