A Hartford telegram on April first, the day before the election, shows h ow the republicans worked. The author says: Washington has fairly vomited depart ment clerks into the State to vote the Radical ticket to-morrow. The hotels here and in New Haven are crowded with men bringing money from Boston, Wash ington and New York, Postmaster Kelly, after a collecting tour at Albany and Banquo's ghost, and the ghost of! around generally, in this State with a full ’slather. In most cases there are Inon ey bag. _ The most unblushing bri bery is practiced everywhere, aud the in tention plainly is to buy the State. The Radicals offer any price to-day for a vote. They are frightened, and with reason. Stand Your Ground. What shall we oppose to the Radicals? Endurance and honor that will conseut to no humiliation, a masterly inactivity that trusts in the filial victory of right. Our course is clear. In the language of the accomplished editor of the Mobile Register, the South will not purchase political pri vileges to which it is entitled by the Con stitution of the country, at the price ol dis honor. Indeed the South has made all the concessions it means to make to resto ration: First, because it has done enough, and second, because faith has not been kept with it in what it has done. We About Ghostw. Ghosts, from the foundation of the world down to the present time, have been in the habit of intruding themselves upon the notice of mankind, uot only ghosts, but also witches, hags, demons, imps, (e. g. the Bottle Imp,) apparitions and shadows have at times convulsed mankind with awe and curiosity. Sometimes ghosts come when they are called for, wheu the Witch of Endor invoked Samuel for the enter tainment of Saul. At other times they present themselves unsolicited, as in the case of Hamlet good and sufficient reasons for the ghost's appearance to he found in the unsatisfac tory condition of his affairs at the time of his death, or in the gross wrongs and in justice which i^ad been perpetrated upon him while living.— But in very many ca ses ghosts come hack without any sort of rhyme or reason, and seem to take a ma lieious pleasure in supernatural frolic- iug.^ We do not know that ghosts are given to whiskey, but many of them certainly behave very inexplicably. Perhaps it is because, as disembodied spirits, they are “out of their heads.”—There is no accoun ting for the freaks and whims of ghosts, and we have never yet 6een any one who could keep the run of them. Some- of the machine it says a man touching the keys of the instrument, as rapidly as prac tice can enable him to do, sets in motion the type, whioh rush to their places in line, and the machine also distributes, without a guide, all the type to their ap propriate places.

THE TYPE SETTING MACHINE. In this age ofimprovement and advance ment in science and art, we know of n< ne more calculated to revolutionize old and accustomed systems than the Alden type setting machine. A large folio, descrip tive and illustrative of its working, has been published iu New York, and the at tention of printers for some time past has been directed to its capabilities.

So one night they visited his stamping ground, With nervous apprehension and excite ment they approached the spot, and sure enough, they were greeted with something between a whoop and a screech, which proceeded from a white object with horns and feathers upon its head. They took to their heels, of course, but subsequently learned that the source of their terror was to the present day the only machinery in general use for putting type into the or der necessary to spell words. In fact, it would seem that a soul would be necessa ry in a machine, since judgment and skill are so necessary. But it has often been remarked that if such a machine could be made as that which manufactures cards for wool and cotton, it ought to be practi cable to make a type-setting machine.

We believe that most ghosts can be van quished by a good cudgel or Colt’s revol ver, and the demonstration of sufficient ments of its iron fingers. The difficulties which surround type-settiug are, however, of a higher character. It is necessary to have a mind at work in spelling words, and all that can be attained, therefore, is nerve for their employment.—Richmond ( tp give the human mind an aid in exeett limes. The Connecticut Election. ting its intentions. If we wish to spell the word bad we must have three types, a, b aud d, and we must have a mind to This election, which the Republicans i determine that those three letters should *' be arranged in order bad. \\ hat we want is a machine which will enable the mind to work rapidly in arranging letters. It may be that we shall want a capital B or a Roman “bad,” or an Italic "bad" or a small capital “bad,” or large capital “BAD,” or any one of a score of varia tions which can be suggested by a glance over the variety of types used on this page. The thinker must be at work, therefore, ami the machine must obey each variation and shade of thought. The Alden machine has been tried in the office of the New York Tribune, and that paper a few days ago expressed a highly satisfactory opiuiou of its capabili ties. Taking the statement there made as a trust worthy verdict on trial, we are led to believe that the problem has been solved- and that thi3 machine will become at once a necessity iu every printing office iu the world. The New York Journal of Commerce declares that they have examined the ma chine while at work, and the result of their observations confirm the views ex pressed by the Tribune, and in speaking seem to regard with triumph, is, in reali ty, most dishartening to them. The Democrats, although their candidate was defeated, have gained in the State over ten thousand votes since the last political conflict with their opponents. They re garded the result as proof of a general and permanent reaction against the reigning fanaticism, as to guarantee the future tri umphs of the unwearied and faithful De mocracy. They also derive encouragement from the fact that this election took place in a New Eugland State; that New England is the stronghold of Radicalism; the last part of the country where a reaction would naturally begin; and that a consid erable reaction in a New Eugland State is a symptom of a wider and deeper change of public sentiment in States less given over to political fanaticism. A further noteworthy circumstance is the rapidity of the change; it haying ee | l mainly accomplished within tne last out teen days.

Slavery is extinct. The made to discourage the immigration of la- track of the Federal army is plainly borers and capitalists by the charge that marked by devastation ; railroads, bridges, the people of the South are unwilling to factories, mills, private dwellings, barns, sell or lease their lands. This assertion fences, &c., have been swept away as by has been based upou the unwillingness of The Southerners, satisfied that their own interests aud the interrest of the ne gro race in this country were identical ; seeing that the conflict between free and slave labor was inevitable, determined to meet the exigency at once, hoping for peaceable secession, hut ready to stake all they had or hoped for on the issue.— For four years, exertions and saciiflces almost incredible were made, the negro re maining comparatively neutral.

Products and Productions of the South. As practical men, the Southerners are rapidly adapting themselves to the new state of affairs. Formerly, plantations were of immense extent, many of them containing from one to twenty thousand acres of land. Manures were but slightly appreciated, as the custom obtained of cul tivating the largest possible number of acres cf new or virgin lands (frequently from thirty to sixty acres of Indian corn or maize to each horse and two hands) for a few years, and as that deteriorated, fresh fields were cleared. The Legislature of South Carolina, meet in November, will en courage iramigrati'in by favorable legisla tion, such as exemption from taxation, and mentions that fact the Presidents of railroads are soon to meet for the purpose of adopting a reduced tariff of charges for transporting immigrants and their effects. A company has already been inaugurated to promote immigration. 'The complete revolution in (he labor system of the State has removed the de sire of iand owners to hold large tracts of land, and the reduced circumstances and pressing necessities of most property hold ers has induced them to offer for sale por tions of their landed estates so that there will be no difficulty in obtaining land of quantities to suit pureba- NEW FIRM.

During the four years of the war, all the energy and enterprize of the Southern States were devoted to the army, and its necessities, consequently internal improve ments in the course of construction were neglected, and those formerly completed have not had necessary repairs. Now that the war is over, attention is again turned to advancing such interests, and the energy exhibited is truly encourag ing. Present Wants of the South. The two great obstacles are—first, the want of capital; second, want of laborers. The 6udden ending of the “rebellion” found us without a circulating medium (Confederate notes being worthless), and capital locked up in various ways, so that it was impossible to realize ready money immediately without ruinous sacrifices; and the emancipation of the slaves, on the people to dispose of their lauds to the negroes, whose indolence, thriftlessness and dishonesty would render them nuis ances to the whole neighborhood, and up on their very reasonable reluctance to re ceive among them the scoundrels who, having despoiled them of their moveable property, and used their official position to embarrass enterprise and depress industry, are desirous of availiug themselves of the depreciation wrought by themselves to profitably invest their ill-gotten wealth in the deserted lands of those whom they have deprived of the labor to cultivate them. The people of the South will wel come capital and labor whencesoever it may come, prot ided it be honestly em ployed, and be devoted to developing resources and reviving their industry.— And Gov. Orr’s letter, though discussing the question of foreign immigration, ap peals also to the capitalist and laboring man of the North; and for good reasons ; the people of the South are particularly interested in the settlement of the right whom we have depended for laborious oc- kind of Northern men among them. Gov. cupations, leaves us in an unsettled state. This past year’s experience demonstrates that but little reliance can be placed on the freedman ; he is constitutionally lazy, and utterly unprepared for the change thus suddenly thrust ou him. Heedless of the morrow, aud content with little of this world’s goods, he trusts to chance for the future. In fact, folly nine-tenths of them at this time refuse to contract with the land-owners for the ensuing year; and thousands of them are cougregating ou the low; lands of the sea coast and islands. The Abolitionist, instead of benefiting the negro, has done him an irreparable in jury, for the inevitable result will be his disappearance from this country. Granting that many evils attended sla very, ) et it had its benefits. Taken as a class, no more happy and contented peasantry were to be found than the Southern slaves. Four out of five Notherners or foreign ers, no matter what their preconceived ideas were, after residing here a tew years, and becoming acquainted with the true state of affairs, adopted the Southeru view. A smaller amount of labor enables a man to iiv9 here, aud live well, than in most, I may say, any other country. The winter is a season of comparative leisure aud enjoyment to the farmer. A few month’s work, from March to October, enables the unenterprising class to make a sufficiency of food for the whole year, aud when that is accomplished, too many are conteut to defer work that is less pres sing, and are not surrounded wilh such comforts aud luxuries as could be easily obtained by thrift aud industry. Certain Extinction of the Negro Popula- ■ tion. Under the new regime, the negroes, de prived of the protection of their former masters, like the native Indians, must give way to the white mar.. Already smallpox and other diseases are sweeping them away by scores. Were it necessary or useful a number of cases might be cited where already they have been more than decimated, where gangs have even been reduced iu one or two years, notwithstand ing the provision made for them by the Fedetal Government, to one-half or one- third their original numbers. Orr has the statesmanship to see that the great want of the South is white popula tion and mechanical and manufacturing industry, and we commend his earnest la bor to supply that waut. When these shall be obtained, the South will be on the direct road to prosperity never before ex perienced in her history. Wit in the Right Place.—One of the early Methodist preachers, an itinerant for more than fifty years, was remarkabie for his combination of deep piety and genuine wit. His name was Phineas Rice. While he was stationed in one of the New York Churches, he found that many of tbe young people, of both sexes, were accustomed to leave the church before the close of the even ing service. It annoyed him, and he determined to stop it. The next Sab bath evening, beiore he commenced his sermon, he said: “Some of my brethren have been greatly afflicted that so many young women leave church before the service is through. But I tell them they ought not to feel so, for doubtless most of them that go out are young women who live at ser vice, and their mistresses require them to be at home at nine o’clock ; and, it they are not home at that time, they will either lose their places or of- lerid their mistresses, and they don’t wish to do either. They must either go out in time to get home at nine o’clock, or stay at home altogether. This would be very hard for them ; and servant girls have beaux as well as other girls, and the young men have to go out to wait upon them home; so hereafter, when these young women leave church before the service is over, you will understand who they are, and uot feel badly about it. The brother who gave this fact said: “We were no more annoyed after this; they either stayed away, or stayed till the meeting was closed.” wm Do not yield to misfortunes, but resist them with unceasing firmness, Hammers, Locks, Nails, Glass, Knives, Powder, Snuff, Tobacco.
