The charges against Edwin D. Mor
gan the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor of New York, with reference to
his career as United States Senator,
seems to have a marked effect upon the
canvass of that State.
Evidently there is not going to be
any Democratic disaffection this year.
John Kelly has taken the stump and
is speaking nightly, while it is under
stood that the two Tammany parties
have buried the hatchet.
The Republican leaders were unable
to find a cloak to cover their iniquities,
so they took the next best thing-
Hayes. But it is too thin; the people
see through the maze and discover the
reeking mass of corruption behind it
Many of the gallant soldiers who

Many of our people who took an active
part in the contest have passed away.
Many persons who then were children

The New York Times of September
8th charged Gov. Tilden with purjury
because he did not include in his
come return a fee of 815,000 received
from the Toledo and Wabash Railroad
in 1802. On Sept. 21st it retracts the
charge and says, in the absence of
proof it must be withdrawn.
It appears to bo certain that the col
ored vote of the South will not be
solid for the Republicans this year.—
Indeed, a gentleman from Louisiana
recently claimed a majority for the
Democrats. Whatever the party effect
may be it is an encouraging sign to see
the class or race vote divided.

Gov. Tilden reduced the tax of New
York in the first year of his adminis
tration 81,520,801 47; in the second
year the reduction was more than 85,-
000,000 over the first, and the whole
reduction from the last year of Gen
eral Dix’s administration is 87,198,
307 70, or nearly one-half the total
tax.
When the thick fog hangs over
city it is impossible to seo the sun.—
If the people would have tho gorgeous
orb of prosperity shine upon this
broad land, they must defeat the in
tention of the Republicans to force
Hayes over tbe country under the cov
er of which they expect to continue
the work of corruption without the
knowledge of the public.
The Cameron conspiracy against the
suffrage is not cqpfined to Pennsylva
nia. A large number of the most des
perate roughs of New York, who have
had experience in election frauds and
riots have been hired by tho conspira
tors and slapped to various points in
the different States which vote on Oct.
10th. Democrats in those States will
watch for organized fraud and defeat
it, from whatever quarter it may
come.
There is a little nitro-glycerinc aud
dynamite mice now laying under the
Hell Gate of the Radical party of this
country, to be touched-off the 7th of No
vember, that will produce a deeper shock
and as smooth sailing as the last Sunday’s
job dare do. The reef is deep-laid ras
cality, the explosive to do the work is pop
ular indignation and reform, and the
match to touch it off is tho little silent
ballot! Throw open your doors and
windows on election day.— Whitehall
(III.) Register.
Disgust is rapidly alienating the bet
ter class of Republicans in this com
munity from their party and its candi
dates. The organs do not tell about it,
and not a lisp of disaffection is heard
on the platform of Faneuil or Music
Hall. But the time has come when
men who have but to reach out their
hands to receivo honor and office from
the party do not hesitate to announce
in private conversation their detestation
of the party methods and their dispo
sition to vote for Tilden and Adams.—
Boston Post.
A young man went i nto a photo
graph gallery in Toledo a few days ago
and asked the artist to take him some
spirit photographs. The artist said he
couldn’t, but the young man insisted,
and a trial was made and no spirit ap-
peared. Not satisfied, he insisted upon
sitting again, when the artist very clev
erly managed things so that the came
ra produced a spirit shadow on the
negative with the young man’s picture.
It was immediately recognized as a
friend who bad been dead several years.
Other spirits came, and the artist drove
a good trade, till getting tired of the
nonsense, he undeceived them and
showed tho process of taking the pic
tures, and with troubled spirits the
spiritualists departed.
