Chance of War in Europe.
Mr. Jennings, the London correspond
ent of the New York Hcrcild?telegraphs
that paper on the 16th instant as follows:
The Saltan never attached any teal im-
S irtance whatever to the surrender of.
nlcigno to the Montenegrins—his. real
fear wafi that the great powers would
unite to demand a further carrying out
of the treaty of Berlin and the cession.of
Janina to the Greeks. I hear on very
good authority that Germany, Franca and
Austria entered into aprivate engagement
not to exert any furtherpressure upon the
Porte, provided that it consented to give
up uulcigno, and consequently that if Mr.
Gladstone now persists In his policy it will
bo in alliance with Rftssla only. ' 1
The leading supporters of the Gladstone
Administration now admit—privately, qf
course—that'war Is almost inevitable at a
very early date, probably in the spring of
1881, and some financiers in the city, usu :
ally reckoned as shrewd and far-seeing
men, are already planning extensive oper
ations with the outbreak taken for grant
ed. The Greeks' are determinqdi to ob
tain possession of Janlna’ at'air 'hazards
and cost, and Mr. Gladstone, is as ready
to help them, while Turkey will yield i.o
more—indeed, can yield no more.
The ministerial papers, therefore, are
gradually preparing the public mind for
the apparently unavoidable issue of war.
They admit the -dissolution of the Euro
pean cocert, but still irsist—though not
with their oTd-tiifie confidence, a close ob
server can see—that Mr. .Gladstone-can
accomplish alone the rest of the work he
lias set oht to perform. The Conservative
press generally offer feeble protests against
England plimglngslngle- banded intwnteh
a war, especially at a lime for ben hpr own
Eastern affairs demand somuch attenttoh
and Ireland is almost in a state of rebell
ion; but the Quarterly Review, publislied
to-day, Is very outspoken, and declares
that the Premier's energy, if it be left un
controlled natch longer, may blast his
country and desolate Europe; which re
minds one of the prediction said to have
been made of him by his father—all the
other Gladstones are Tories—“William
will end by ruining his country and dying
in a mad house.” Thus far all the Radi
cal papers throughout England have stood
firmly by the ministry, and nothing is sur
er than that while he is thus encouraged
and upheld the Premier will push on bi3
wav; even if it lead him into a European
war, with all its terrible uncertainties.
How They Carried Indiana.
Some enrious revelations, says the
World, as fo Republican methods in Indi
ana, arc made by a prominent business
man pf this city, who returned from a
commercial visit to the West last evening.
This gentleman was stopping,qt the New
Denison House—the Republican head
quarters—in Indianapolis before, during
and after the election. 'While there he
became acquainted with a Federal office
holder under Grant from New Orleans,
who was an Intimate friend of Senator
Dorsey and one of his most active and
valuable heDchmen in the campaign.
In the course of fqQiliar intercourse,
and perhaps under tor Inspiration of a
good dinner, the mach'nist from Louisiana
confided to the New Yorker the fact that
the use of the lariff question in the party
S ,lilies of Indiana was an idea of Senator
orscy, who, in the dearth of other is
sues, thought it would be a good thing to
spring upon the Democrats just before the
election, so as to scare the manufacturers
and merchants of Ohio and Indiana. The
Louisiana Republican confessed that the
leaders in his party perfectly well recog
nize the fact that the tariff question is one
altogether outside of present party poli
tics, and that there arc Free-Traders and
rrotectionists m both parties. The New
Yorker was informed by his Lotusiana
friend of some of the inner workings of
the Republican committee, and among
other things ot the fact that the commit
tee had four agents in every precinct m
Indiana, each of them supplied with a
large amount of money, which they w-ere
directed to place “where it would do the
most good.” The NewYo:kersawin
the committee rooms valises stuffed with
greenbacks, which were thence distribu
ted in large amounts. The Louisianian
confessed to him that the Republicans
were determined to carry Indiana regard
less of expense, and declared that more
than $3,000,000 had been spent. As much
as $100 was paid for a single vote.
■“Why,” said the man from New Orleans,
-if there had been a fair election, the
Democrats would have carried the State
by a majority or 10,COO at least.”
The New York merchant after a while
declared liimseir to be a Democrat. On
this he was asked to promise ‘oat the
above facts should not be published. This
he declined to do. His Republican ac
quaintance then asked that nls unseat
least should be kept back, and said that if
Ids name were publislied in connection
with the facts be would swear they were
false. The New Yorker quieted the
Louisianian's apprehensions by promising
to keep his name secret, and so gave him
no occasion to commit perjury.
The New York merchant declared that
he had seen more of the worse side of
Americau polities in two hours in Indian
apolis than he had ever before seen or
heard of during his life-
remembered that the present measure
of power obtained by the Democratic
party has come to it through .the pressure
of a vast majority of the whole people.
There cannot be the least doubt that it
represents the aggregate political-desire of
the country. In 187«Mr. Tilden,very near
ly di vided with his opponent the vote of the
Northern States. The South swelled his
majority to 250,000.' 'Of the white voters
of the country his majority was one • mil
lion and. more. Against this. stubborn
sentiment, which has survived the perils
of war and Lhe blandishments which for
twenty years have invited surrender, the
wall of political exclusion cannot be much
longer succesfully. maintained, if busi
ness men are wise they 'will look .these
factsin the face. .The policy that gives
peace and steadiness to the government of
the country is the true-policy and the wise
policy, year in and year out.” , .
.The General Political Situation.
yhe Sun's Washington correspondent
says;" , ‘ ’ i!;,t 1 •
Senator Whyte, In conversation witli
your correspondent yesterday, said that he
felt quite encouraged by; what he saw and
heard in his trip to New York and New
Jersey, from which he had just returned.
The leading Democrats in the two -States
werfe of course disappointed at the result
in Indiana, but it did not give them any
fear of their own Statep. Gov. Whyte
saw Gen. Hancock during his visit; and
he was quite serene, and 'without appre
hension as to the November.result. -Mr.
Whyte addressed a New Jersey audience
while • away, and was much pleased
with jhis reception. He explained - to
tho. New Jersey people the prop
er attitude of the Democratic party of the
country, on the question of the tariff, and
the absurdity of the scare which the Re
publican orators and journals are endeav
oring to get up on. that 1 subject. Both
Senators Randolph and McPherson told
him that .New Jersey would go foe Han
cock and would elect a Democratic Legis
lature. ' Representative Phelps, of Con
necticut, told Gov. Whyte that the nation
al Democracy need not be alarmed on ac
count of that State as it would certainly
go for Hancock, but he did not feel so
confident as to. tho Legislature. Mr.
Whyte said that from this time till the
election the tariff question would be fully
discussed by the Democratic speakers in
all of tho three Slates. • .
Representative McLane, in conversa
tion with yonr correspondent, desired to
say that he had recently been reported as
saying that he gave np all hope of Han
cock’s success after the result of tho Indi
ana election.. Hj, McLane says be did
not make any such remark as this, and
that he did not have and has not any snch
belief. Ho says that, to the contrary of
thinking the November election settled,
he considers that if it depends on the at
titude of New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut, that neither of theso States
will be affected by the result In Indiana,
but that all of them will vote for Han
cock.

Natural Gaslight. — Moses Has
bro eb and a party of fishermen had been
casting their nets in Pyramid Lake, Nev.,
for several weeks, when about the middle
of last month they moved up the shore
seeking better waters: As it was cool
during the first night at their new camp
two large fires were lighted. Tho burn

tiie way and dropped off to sleep one by
one. i, :Ii . •
Somewhere near two o’clock in the
morning the members of the party were
aronsed by a dazzling iigbt around tbern.
Iu a moment it wa3 seen that the light
came from hundreds of jets of flame from
five to twelve feel in heighffill'around the
camp. The sparks had ignited a great
number of gas wells. The gas was found
to proceed from little blowholes from a
half to an inch in diameter, and seemed in
no Wav different from such holes usually
seen on the deserts. The gas jets shot up
with a good deal of force and made a sort
of crackling noise.
The upper parts of the jets presented a
yellowish appearance and were from one
to three feet in width, while down near
the ground, where the jets were narrow,
the flames passed from yellow to a green
ish hue. The party leltthc jets burning
when they broke up camp the next morn
ing. Subsequently they told a Piute In
dian of their discovery. The red man ex
hibited no surprise at what he saw, but,
lighting a stick, he went some rods farther
up the valley, and touched off a dozen or
more jets that were fed from holes upon
and around a little hillock.
More Fish than Water.—An Alaska
letter in tho San Francisco Bulletin says:
As for the salmon,^a3 seen this morning
urging their way np the swift, crawling
current—tens of thousands of them side
by aide* with their backs out of water in
shallow places—nothing that I could
write foay possibly give anything like a
fair conception of-tho extravagance of their
numbers. There is more salmon appa
rently, hulk fo? bulk, than water. In
fording the stream the writhing multi
tudes, crowding against one another,could
not get out of one’s way. ;...
One of our men waded out in the midst
of them and amusedj himself by seizing
them above the tail and swinging them
over his head. Thousands of them could

making their way over the shallows
among the stones. Whatever may be said
of other resources of that Territory, it is
hardly possible to exaggerate the impor-

A Letter from. Col. Hardeman.
To the Democratic Party af Bibb

to an inquiry trom some of our most ex
cellent citizens, I gave my reasons why. I

canvass that was then dividing the Demo
cratic party'of GeorgiL' I ’Th&a Ab'desire
to engage iu a conflict - with' brethren of
my own political household. Lbave seen
no cause to repent that decisionj and, now
that the conflict is over, I trust I will be
pardoned by you fo.- this appeal for re
union and harmony. I believe you will
give me credit for sincerity when I say Ini
so doing I am prompted by “no,lofty con

siderations of party fealty and pubjic.
gopd. The political,events that hive
transpired ami are occurring In the coun
try'must Impress every true Democrat
with the most profound feelings. The
unfortunate division in the ranks of the
party in Georgia, the result 1 of the
elections in .Ohio and Indiana—though
hot fatal to our cause—must necessarily
excite emotions of serious apprehension.
What effect that division and our exceed
ingly ill-timed and ill-tempered canvass
had in producing these results in those
States, 1 cannot now say, but it is not as
serting too much to affirm they furnished
campaign material to our opponents, and
gave tlipm weapons of warfare against us,
they had not before. The arguments used,
the pamphlets circulated, tiie conduct of
tho whole canvass were such 'as to
strengthen our opponents at home and
give character to the charges of our ene
mies abroad. In fact, we have solidified
the Republican party in Georgia, whicli
had beoome scattered and powerless, and
had they been aware of their power m
the latq election they would have added
to their already increased numbers in our
State Legislature. Our division is their
bond df union; our dissension is their
strength. We know the power of union and
harmony. It was union, fraternal union
that rescued the State from-Republican
rule; that restored to us our home govern
ment, foat gave us peace in our borders
and prosperity iu our homeland it is
this, anil this only, that will secure for us
ascendency in the -future. 1 ’' Ifet! -Adf tlnfoi'-'
lunate divisions now cease. ; This is not
the occasion to discuss the causes of or the
merits of those dissensions—for every lov
er of his party and of peace must regret
that any cause should have divided those
who had acted so harmoniously together.
Now is'the time for conciliation and har
mony. Let the minority submit quietly,
gracefully, to the expressed will of the
people, and give to the administration of
tiie Governor-elect a generous confidence
and support. Let the majority, satisfied
with tbeir triumph, resort to no “proscrip
tive or denunciatory proceedings ’ against
those who honestly differed with them, out
with moderation and in a spirit of amity
and brotherhood, proceed to heal the un
fortunate breach iu our ranks. The
tone aad temper of the press could ip
some instances be softened and changed m
the interest of peace. The memory of
past struggles ainl. past wrongs demands
fraternization and union; the painful ex
perience of the present suggests them,
and • i the hopes, aye, the
life iof the party in the
future, depend upon immediate concilia
tion and harmony. Crimination .and re
crimination now are useless and' damag
ing; ahd as neither side is blameless,
let eacli, in view of present dangers,bury the
past and its bitterness, and sensitive alike

engaged for national unity and constitu
tional government. That much damaee
to oiir party has resulted from our division,
no one ; will deny; that some good will re
sult, I am free to admit, for It has taught
us its felly and its danger. As one, fellow
Democrats, who took no part in the unfor
tunate canvass that has just closed; as one
whose heart bled over your dissensions
and strife; as one who has labored, for
years, for the unity and success of the
Democratic party, I appeal to the support
ers of the two' honorable and worthy
candidates for gubernatorial honors to
cease your bickerings—bury* your animos
ities, and as in the years past, with a
common purpose and in patriotic fellow
ship, go forward to the faithful discharge
of duty in this hour of your party’s nec
essities and your country’s peril. Let the
party call and the rallying cry be Han
cock and union—English and the con
stitution. Under the common banner ot
the Democracy, though trailed often in
the dust, yet never stained with dishonor,
let us rally. Upon its folds are Inscribed
civil liberty, constitutional government,
equal rights and privileges to all citizens,
a reunited people and a restored union.
Upon these principles, in fraternal union,
we can stand in sunshine and in storm,
and if they fall, as has been said by an
other “we fall with, them. If they stand,
it will be because we have maintained
tbem.’i Respectfully,
Thos. Hardeman.

To carry out these ends we must not
only elect - a Democratic I’resldont and
Vice-President, hut we. miujt have a good
working majority in. Congress, without
which it'will he impossible ^ repress
those frauds for ! which the'people have
been made to contribute more from tbeir
. hard earnings than would have been nec
essary economically to carry on the gov
ernment. To effect these objects Georgia
should set a glorious example. There
must be no ; break in our Congressional
line, and to secure this result the safest
course is to support tiie candidates nom
inated by the party. ' iw
In'Organization there Is strength and.
assured victory; without it all is doubt
and uncertainty, and there is so much at
stake in this cantasa i that nothing 'should
be left to chance.
The recent loss of Ohio and Indiana,
which we Will redeem in November,
should not touch us with dismay; rather
let it Incite us to greater efforts tp. secure
that harmony, without, which success is
impossible, and let it teach us the vital
importance of frowning down all Opposi
tion to the regular nominees in the Con
gressional districts; for if we fail in the
presidential election we shall have to
look entirely to a Democratic Congress
for the preservation of constitutional gov
ernment. For this reason, the duty of
standing by the Democratic organization
appeals with redoubled force to every
man who recognizes the fact that the
prosperity, yea! the safety, of the South
depends on the maintenance of the limi
tations of tiie constitution.
The control of the legislative and: exec
utive departments of thegovormGnt by the
Republican party will fix upon the South
an undue share of the burdens of the gov
ernment and an almost entire exclusion
from any of its benefits; compared with
these results, how insignificant becomes
the personal ambition of any, man; may
we not, therefore, appeal with’confidence
to our political associated of every class
to unite in an earnest and determined
effort, to move, forward with the single
purpose of obtaining in Georgia iu No-
vembernext a complete Democratic vie-,
tory. i'
t JVben we shall have done, this. wc will
have performed our full duty, and if by
defection elsewhere, we are doomed
to defeat in the national election,
the Democratic party of Georgia
will, ha without reproach, and so far
as ibis concerned, success will have been
deserved. Let Georgia in 1880 be ryhat

Address of the State Democratic
Committee,.,.
Fellow Citizens—The executive com
mittee of the Democratic parftf' bohsldert
this a proper occasion to issue _ an address
to such of the people of Georgia as sym-
nathize with them in the hope that the
mission of the national Democracy, to re
store peace to the country, is about to be
fulfilled in tiie triumphant election of
Hancock and English!
The; unfortunate differences which have
been tiie cause of much bitterness among
ourselves, have been settled.
It is hoped that with this settlement our
political harmony will be so . lully and
permanently restored that our opponents
will not be able to find in the fnture any
possible expectation of* disorganizing a
party upon the thorough, complete, and
perfect harmony of which the future not
only of the South, bat the Union, so large
ly depends.
Let us bury the differences of tho past,
or remembering, them, let _ them _ bo re
membered alone as a warning against fu
ture possible divisions; let us accord to
each other that our difference severe from
honest convictions, and that-disloyalty to
the great principles of Democracy, which
are few and simple, had no place in ,ei
ther wing of that party. 1 '
Now that the smoke of” battle has
cleared away, lef^t bo the- effort of every
man to do all in his power to swell the
Democratic vote and roll up for Hancock
and. English a majority or one hundred
thousand as Georgia’s quota to the victo
rious columns under -the ' lead
of that soldier and statesman who
has illustrated in,himself that “peacuhath
its victories as well as war,” and whose
accession to the presidency will bo the
harbinger of peace to the country by the
obliteration of sectional lines and the re
newal of confidence in that love which the
South feels for every section of the Union,
and which lacks only opportunity .to
make itself so manifest that Its worst ene
mies shall never again be able to give the
appearance of plausibility to the oft-re-
peated and unfounded charge of “dialoy-

The vote of Georgia ought to besolfp
for the Democratic candidate; Presidential
and Congressional. The prindplee of the
Democracy are in harmony with the in
terests of all our people, of whatever race,
color or occupation. We have no classes'
who are asking bounties from the govern

and protection under the law, with the

D.esMoines to the Journal says the ground
is frozen several feet deep. About two-
thirds of the potato crop is not dug and is
probably a total loss.
The dock of the lake steamer Alperla,
belonging to the Goodrich line, is report

Diabolus in maturing his great architect

and spoliation began. In J705, the French
used it for storing forage, and stripped the
roof of lead to'bo moulded into bullets.
These spoliations were repaired subse

gone on steadily ever since. The famous

THE WORK OF CENTURIES COMPLETED.
Europe at large and all tho world will
rejoice with Germany and Cologne that
its architectural treasures are enriched by
this flower of Gothic art. European his
tory itself seem3 to have been given a new
connecting link by the literal fulfillment
of an engagement made six hundred and
thirty-two years ago. The plan of the

The Repeating Business.
A howl, says the Montgomery Adverti
ser, was raised over the vote of Alabama.
It was pronounced sprima facie fraud by
many of the leading Radical sheets. It
was fiercely asserted that Alabama could,
not poll so large a vote upon the basis of
her population. And yet now it turns out
that if onr State were to count her voting
population according fo the exhibit in
Ohio and Indiana it would be many thou
sand votes larger than the figures of the
late election show. In those States it
stood fully one vote to every four persons.
In Alabama italid not reach oae voter to
every five. But then in Indiana they bad
a large number of professional repeaters
from Philadelphia and New York. The
former city is notorious foe it* Radical re
peaters. But for them—but for the fear
of the usual Republican frauds in Phila-
delpbia,there would be no doubt whatever
as to Pennsylvania's goiug for Hancock by
a handsome majority.
At the usual ratio of five inhabitants fo
oue voter, the registration lately completed
would show Philadelphia has a population
of 1,051,730, while the United States cen
sus for 1380 gives the city a population of
847,542, or 204,188 less than the registra
tion makes out. The 169,500 voters re
ported by the census at the ratio of one fo
five, indicate a population in the city of
848,500, which singularly enough is al
most the exact population reported by foe
census takeis.
But this repeating business—like bribe
ry—has come to be something honorable
in the Republican party. The other day,
as some repeaters were on tbeir way home
from Indiana, they were openly boasting
on the cars of tbeir success in getting in
as many as six and seven ballots apiece
during the day. These rascals are paid
and honored by the Republican party ac
cording to tbeir skill in stuffing the boxes.
As an instance, we may take a Phnadel-
phia case:
One Mouat, a leading politician, who
was a delegate to the Chicago convention,
at the February election this year, with a
party of confederates, forced his way Into
a polling booth, destroyed the ballots and
made up a forged return electing his man.
Tiie crime was so audacious that Phila
delphia morality was moved to demand
liis punishment. But the fixed up grand
jury, disregarding the poslttve instructions
of the court, refused to iudict Mouat. The
next grand jury did its duty aad Mouat
was put on trial. His guilt was undenia
ble, but the “jury fixers” gottbeir man on
the jury, and of course there was a failure
to agree, the jury - standing eleven for con
viction and one for acquittal. So Mouat
went free of punishment. At the opening
ot the Presidential campaign t)ds
Mouat, iu recognition of his Ser
vices, was called to an important
position by the Republican managers of
the conduct of the pending Canvass. He
was out at the head of the committee on
the negro vote of the city. R '* easy to
see this will afford ample scope for the
, professional repeater, in votiDg bands of
trawl unreC0 gnieed uegroe* on the false regis
tration already provided-
It is a party that succeeds by the rascal
ly sharpness of such creature*, and by
other disgraceful methods, thstthe Ameri
can people are called upon to thrust from
power by means of the ballot in Novem
ber. It can be done in spite-of ail their
stupendous frauds and' bribes. We be
lieve it will be done. The occasion
calls for the beat endeavor of every hon
est manand of every patriot in the land.
