■XI)c Constitutionalist AUGUSTA, CrJ^.z Saturday Morning, October 16, 1875. CURRENT TOPICS. Cuyahoga County—The County That Heat Allen. Cleveland, October 14.—Cuyahoga county full returns give Hates a majority of 6,364, a gain of 3,763.— Press Dispatch. In the election for Governor in 1873 NoTrs, tho Republican candidate, carried the county by a majority of 2.601. The city of Cleveland is iu that county, and the county itself is upon Lake Erie, in the north eastern part of tho State, and only a few hours ruu from Pennsylvania. The popu lation of the city and county is 132,010. Ac ci>rding to the rule of estimating, the num ber of persons eligible to elective franchise one in seven, the whole number of lawful votes would be 18,858. Rut in the Gubernatorial election in 1873 only 13,889 votes were polled. The voters, therefore, brought out at the election on the 12th must have about all been cast for Hates or imported from Pennsylvania for that purpose. It would have been quite an easy thing for the bondholders to have slipped three or four thousand men into Cleve and from points [along the numer ous railways leading from New York and Pennsylvania, and by this stroke turned the otherwise result of the whole election. Air. Thompson, the Chairman of the State Executive Committ e, makes the charge of fraud direct, which is denied by Wickoff, the Republican Chairman, and a notitication is given that the election will be contested, ( barges of election frauds, bargains and corruption at an American election are always made just after the re sult is known. It is next to impossible to prove them, however. The only chance a political party ever has to stop illegal vot ing is when the election is going on, and even then in crowded cities, where men do not know their next door neighbor by sight, there is the most ample opportunity to bring total strangers from other States and vote them. It is hard to believe that the election in Cuyahoga county was exactly the fair thing. Poetic Portraits, We think, remarks the Gordonsville Oa zette, even Poe himself would have acknowl edged the tidelity of the portraiture given below, and the warmest admirers of Whit tier could not ask for a more beautiful eu logy. 'J he contrast is as striking as put ting one of Rembrandt’s darkest pictures by the side of one of “l.orraine’s landscapes sweetly spread,” or like suddenlyemerging from some dark and loathsome cavern into the light and fragrance of a balmy May morning. Evidently Edgar Fawcett is no mean poet himself, and displays great ver satility of description in the lights and shadows of these striking pictures: POE. " He loved all shadowy spots, all seasons drear; All ways of darkness lured his ghastly whim; Strange fellowships he held with goblins grim, At demoniac eyes he felt no fear. On midnights through dense branches he would peer. To watch the pale ghoul feed, by tomb stones dim; The appalling lorms of phantoms walked with him, And murder breathed its red guilt in his ear! Ijv desolate paths of dream, whore fancy’s owl Sent long, lugubrious hoots through som bre air, Amid thought’s gloomiest caves he went to prn wl, And met de irium in her awful lair, And mingled with cold shapes that writhe or scowl— Serpents of horror, black bats of despair! WHITTIER. Fresh as on breezy seas the ascendant air. And bright as on thick dews its rad.ant trace; Pure as the smile on some babe’s dream ing face; Hopeful as meadows at the breath of May, One loftiest aim his melodies obey, Like dawnward larks in roseate deeps of space- While that large, reverent love for all his race Makes him a man in manhood’s lordlier way. His words, like pearls, are luminous yet stiong; His dubious thought ennobles while it calms; We seem to have felt the falling, in his song, Of benedictions and of sacred balms— To have seen the aureoled angels group and throng In heaveniy vallevlands, by shining palms! Edoar Fawcett. SOUTH CAROLINA AFFAIRS. The British bark Herbert C. Hall was cleared for Rotterdam yesterday; vessel by Mr. Alfred J. Creighton, car go by Messrs. Standland & Downing, with 4,533 barrels of rosin. Some of the police arrested a respect able white man and locked him up in the guard house, and kept him there most of tho day without anything to eat. His name is McHenry. He is well known in Charleston and other cities and towus of the State, where he has followed the business of corn doctor with success. The ostensible charge against him was vagrancy. The object of arresting him was to terrify him into taking out a city license. P. C. Fludd, late County Treasurer c f Darlington, was tried on two indict ments at the iate term of court. The indictments were for not making monthly reports to the county. The jury was composed equally of white and colored. He defended himself. — The jury was out twenty-two hours. They found him guilty on one indict ment ; cleared him on the other. He owes the county about $7,000. There was another indictment against him that was not tried at this term. Charleston News and Courier: About six o’clock last evening, from some un known cause, the glass steam gauge attached to the boilers of the Commer cial Cotton Press was blown to atoms, causing a decided panic among the by standers. One of the firemen broke like a quarter-horse, and was with some difficulty collared and brought back to his post. In the meanwhile someone inadvisedly turned on the blow, which would have emptied the boilers in short order, and entailed considerable damage from the raging fires in the furnaces. The cock, how ever, was soon shut off and a serious accident was averted. Columbia Register: The Directors of the South Carolina Monument Associa tion have in contemplation the intro duction at an early period of a series of “ penny readings.” These readings have been carried on with great suc cess in other places, and have proved a very pleasant way of promoting social intercourse, as well as a profitable source of revenue. The plan is to have readings of different selections of Eng lish literature, interspersed with music. No charge is made for admission, but a basket is placed in the centre of the room to receive any sum which persons feel disposed to contribute. Referring to the direct trade scheme of the International Chamber of Com merce and Mississippi Valley Associa tion, it says: “The whole plan strikes us as far reaching and sagacious, and, if carried out as successfully as it is ably pro jected, to promise most valuable re sults. The parties who have it in hand appear to be honest, substantial, enter prising and honorable men. There is an objection, of course, lying upon the surface, that is to the American branch es contributing their first annual sub scriptions to the parent society as a contribution to the foundation and en dowment fund. There may be some thing in this, but we believe not much.” TAKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Spleen. MAEARIOUS FEVERS.
