GEORGIA TELEGRAPH BUILDING ESTABLISHED 1826- MACON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1880 rf, 1. tUfl ! T, . ■ VO LUME NO—LV 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.

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 thus he taken by hand while they are 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- her fisheries. Not to mention rob- mon A Letter from. Col. Hardeman. To the Democratic Party af Bibb County: A few weeks since,^iu response to an inquiry trom some of our most ex cellent citizens, I gave my reasons why. I should Remain silent during .the heated 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 fidence’’ in. my own opinions, hut by 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 to patriotic instin&s and requirements, JftcJS £]ii£ld?. .toll's Ip, fop great AtEUiizJe 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. TT '7“ ' . 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 she .was in 1870, the banner State in the Democratic column. By order of tho State Democratic, Executive Committee. L, N. Trammell, Chairman. Cathedral of Cologne.

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- alty-’i The vote of Georgia ought to besolfp for the Democratic candidate; Presidential and Congressional.

Riehl, a neighboring village, whom tradition as serts to have had the special assistance of Diabolus in maturing his great architect ural design, in consideration of which he traded off his soul. For nearly two centuries the great workmado nltle'br no progress, aUd the choir was.fbuipleted in 1322. Through Uie fourteenth and fifteenth centuries it dragged slowly along: In the beginning of the sixteenth centuiy Work was stopped 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 quently tb'18l3'at a cost of $150,000, aud the work ofrepair; and construction has gone on steadily ever since. The famous great crane op the south tower, so long a landmark of Cologne was taken down in 1£68, and the\ final stonework on both towers was c6mpleted> about two months ago—since Which time the removal ; of scaffoldiiig and the grading of the grounds abound the- temple have /Employed the workmen. Says tho Tillies: • The Cathedra], cruciform in shape, stands on a slight eminence—sixty-seven feet above the level of the Rhine—which in the tjm'e of the Romans, fonned_the southeast corner of tiie camp. Its interior-: is 448 feet long, 140 feet broad; transcept, 249 feet long; choir, 149 feet high. The portion!appropriated to divine service oc cupies an area of 70,000 square feet. Its exterior dimensions are: Lengt, 480 feet; breadth, 2S3 . feet, height ot the central aisle, 154 feet; height of the main tow- ere, 511 feet. The heaviest of tbp six bells weighs eleven tons. In the north aisle are five windows of stained glass (completed in 150S-9) of great beauty, while the yew, windows, in the south aisle, presented, by King Louis of Bavaria in 1S4S, prove that tiie M^fficfioir'pliesTaTsTWpS; 111 jiTrourieen pillars of the cen tral part, bear statues representing Christ, the Virgin and the Twelve Apostles, which are valuable as specimens ol the sculpture of the fourteenth ceutury. The choir also contains nine frescoes by Steinle; tapestry illustrating the Nicene Creed worked by ladies of Cologne; carved stalls of the fourteenth century, and—above the inner gallery—a series of admirable old stained glass windows rep resenting the Kings of Judab, together 1 with oilier subjects from the Old Testa ment. 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 year 124S is consummated in the year 1880; the subjects of the Emperor William receive the finished work‘with as little sense that it is an obsolete antiquity as if tbev had been subjects of a Hohenstufen solid structure of palpable stone, that the nineteenth century executes a commission of the thirteenth. But tokens of a less material sort are visible everywhere that no element is.irredeemably faded and perished which has once been incor porated in European life.

Mest'K.f 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.
