ST Morals of Government It is not worth while for a man to fret t &nd .® woald b/wisdom ^ «.£T the dead and fume because the course of politics runs counter to all his notions of proprie ty. The United States can stand almost any amount ot bad government, and it Is in the nature oferror and abuse to tread on their own toes, and lend a helping in fluenceto their own correction, thougl they may be very slow about it. A gen eration in government should not count more than a year in human life, and al though to-day we may pee what appear to os the most' ridiculous and transparent heresies rampant, and apparently drawing a new lease of life, yet so sure as they are ridiculous, so sure arc they suicidal, and will come to an end after many days. The government and people of. the United States are even now only experimenting in the art of government. We have got the whole art and science yet to learn, or rather to put in the shape of knowledge ascertained and established by expe rience. For example, jost now we have two op posing theories of public welfare and prosperity. They are confused, cross-lined and mixed up by politicians; but their general outlines are so broadly distinctive that they cannot well be mistaken. One of these is the domestic or Chinese theory, which contemplates building up national wealth on a foundation substan tially of foreign non-intercoune. It taxes foreign importations heavily, and to coun tervail that burden on the people, tenders heavy discriminating bounties by thesame methods to domestic manufacturers. It clears the ocean of American ships by making trade in American, manufactures more or less impossible by reason of their greater cost, and then proposes to revive American shipping by paying subsidies out of the national treasury to American shipping. It cumbers the statute books with my riads of laws to convert taxpaying into money-making, and to conceal the opera tion of the process by which all the real tax is wrung from the labor of the country, and to persuade the Ignorant that taxpay ing, like a national debt, is a national blessing, and the heavier the tax the great er the blessing. To increase the appa rent necessities for heavy taxation it wan ders round our wide national domain in search of opportunity to spend money, In the form of internal improvements, by the general government, and then puts a fool’s cap on the heads of all those who object to such a disposition of tLe tax money of the people, which can only with propriety be devoted to the legitimate expenses of government. A tax to run ships, or saw mills, or fac tories, or barber shops, is not a lawful tax, and it is a severe tax when it comes out of the blood of the working people—the cloth and spool cot ton ot the laborer and sewing woman, while the investments of the rich arc exempted from taxation or protected by a legalized bounty. let our friends in tbe first district take warning. I also learn that they expect to .utes, and then there entered the great carry the second district. What a shame : The Brooklyn Eagle, narrating the .

How foolish to fret the irrevocable. We cannot gather up the water that is spilt on the ground, and we only make ourselves contemptible in the eyes of the world to our foolish at tempt to do so. Again it is foolish, because we are neg lecting the duties of the present. We are here to-day, embodying in our present chaiacter all that past experience has left ns. Outlives are just* such as we have made them, and they are not to be wash ed out of their natural shape by any amount of tears or fretting that we may lavish on them. It is tmmanly to month and fret over the fact. The weaker we are, the mere necessity to husband our strength, we neglect our duties to the living by mourning over the dead. The opportunities of tbe present are vastly more important to us than any failures of the past. If w.e neglect them, they in turn become the source of regret and re morse. Let us not cry over water spilt upon the gronnd, nor waste our strength in vain endeavors to gather it up again. i The criminality of fretting is found in the fact that se waste time that ought to be devoted to better purposes. If the time spent to fretting about that which we cannot help was devoted- to benevolent acts, the world would be far wiser and happier. To take a more practical view. If the time thus spent was only devoted to the acquisition of money, to some honest employment, we would be placed beyond all want. The Extreme folly of fretting about what is become, is so patent to all that every man'who indulges in it ip made ashamed of himself a thousand times. Yet those misfortunes which trouble us most are imaginary, and but few men arc free from dark forebodings. Let us not fret and worry over that which we cannot help, but with a strong heart and firm hope let us-.be ready for any fate. If our lives were what they should be, there would be no cause for worrying and fretting. These are bat the evidences of our weakness and failure. The administrative fabric of the gov ernment to-day rests on the hard earnings of the poor, while a large proportion of tbe Northern and Western poor are per suaded that their very salvation depends on keeping up the protective tariff taxation; and on the other hand, the day and night dream or the capitalists is “a strong gov ernment” to protect capital from the as saults of labor. It is a curious and con tradictoiy medley, which many years will perhaps be needed to reduce to consis tency and common sense, but is bound to reach a solution ultimately. Its very in justice and absurdity is made to appeal for it. Thus, ex-Goyeraor Brown, in his appeal to the pdcple for re-election to the Senate, exposes the practical folly of those who are slack in their clamor for the public money for improvements, while tbe other States and sections are so fierce after it. We wring ourselves. We ought to build ourselves up at the public expense, as the other States do. If we don’t get the money, the othej States will. The same reasoning would apply to all public theft of any method. Everybody knowa that there is nothing so demoraliz ing as these great internal improvement log-rolling bills. They strike at all mo rality, economy apd honesty, and have for their primary motive the waste of ex cessive revenue in order to necessitate ex cessive tariff taxation. It will do no good to speak against them now, but by- ■and-by they will sorely trouble their ad vocates in a terrible way, whatever hopes <it security they may build on “a strong government.” It is a thousand pities that the blessings of a fair and constitutional administration of this government cannot be realized at once. There are, it is true, Improvements which ought to be carried on by the gov ernment, but even these could be ef fected without making the tax revenues of the country ultimately responsible. The Mississippi river and valley should be saved by the general government, but the cost should come ultimately out of the landholders, and not out of the taxpayers at large. The moment you take tax mon ey for trade bounties and land, river and harbor improvements, it is misappropria tion fraught with injustice and inequality, and an utter perversion of the uses of tax ation. Unhappy Ireland. The Dublin correspondent of the Man chester Guardian says “the military au thorities in the west of Ireland are mak ing extensive preparations in view of ap prehended disturbances. Houses ere be ing hired atTuam and Headford in. Gal way, and at Balia, in Mayo, for immedi ate occupation by the military. Detach ments of troops will also leave the Cur- ragh of Kildare for Castlebar and West- port in Mayo.” Those who are advising the Irish to re sist tbe English laws and resort to vio lence in their dealings with the agents and stewards of the landed proprietors, should be met with the sternest reproba tion by all the true friends of Ireland at home and abroad. This is no way to compass their purpose, and can only re sult in untold misery and suffering to the poor creatures who are deluded into this desperate attempt at rebellion. The ap peal should be made to public sentiment and the British Parliament. Already there is a-strong disposition in England to abate the Hardships, as far as ^possible, of the Irish tenantry by] proper legislation, and we trust the movement will prove successful. In the meantfrae, let the af flicted sons of Erin patiently await the re sult. It is a subject for congratulation, at least, that tbe almost unprecedented yield of the potato crop will drive gaunt famine away from their doors. Don't Fret. “Don’t fret,” said one of the most emi nent physicians in New York city to one of our friends not long ago. Fretting has killed more men than bullets in war. It is a greater scourge than yellow fever, and is more destructive of the happiness of mankind than any epidemic that has ever swept onr shores. It unstrings the nervous system, deranges the digestive or gans and muddles the brain. It destroys all happiness and drives peace and enjoy ment from the best regulated home. It makes miserable the unfortunate victim, and renders him disagreeable and disgust ing to all around him. , Don’t fret. David uttered a forcible, philosophical truth, as well as a divine'declaration, when he said, “ Fret not thyself because of evil doers.” How few accept the force of this truth! A large portion of the hu man family seem to think it a great priv ilege, if not a necessity, to fume and worry and fret over things that they can’t help, whether It is a past misfortune or some peuding imaginary evil. In either they exhibit their folly. It is foolish to make yourself miserable over what is past, because you cannot re call it. It is like “water spilt upon the ground that cannot be gathered up again.” Still, the “pale ghost of the past” is rob bing you of the sweetest joy and filling your heart with sorrow not unlike bereave ment. And as long as you nurse that sorrow it will not only destroy happiness, but will weaken you for the discharge of du- Ue* that are Imperatively demanded. MORMONISU STILL FLOURISHING. — Despite the whole power of the United States government and tbe fuiminations of the law, the shocking polygamists of Utah manage not only to hold their own, but are receiving constant accessions from abroad. It was hopod that the decease of Brigham Young, the famous spiritual and temporal head of the church and commu nity, would result in the demoralization and dispersion of his followers. But not The Mormons are stronger than ever, and have just elected John Taylor, rank ing member of “the twelve apostles,” a3 Brigham’s successor. The present repre sentative of Utah in Congress, George T. Cannon, who-has four wives, has also been chosen “'Unit counsellor.” It is said that Mr. Taylor has been the leading spirit among the Mormons since thp death of Brigham Young, and virtually wield ed his authority. He is a pronounced polygamist, and will do everything to de fend and preserve this barbarous relic of the' olden time. Query: Why is it that Congress does not strike at the root of the matter by the arraignment and punishment of Cannon, the “muchly” married delegate from the Territory of Utah. HXTUBLIpANS IN THE NEXT LEGISLA TURE.—'The Athpns Blade (colored Re publican) boasts of the election of Ben Dugar, Senator from the forty-first dis trict, and the following Radical white and colored representatives: John McIn tosh, Liberty county; Newton Hagen, Paulding county; A. Wilson, Camden couuty; U. B. Wilkinson, Coweta county; I. Lenon, Dougherty county; — Hemy, Fannin county; — Johnson, Leo county; William Dykes, Macon county; Thomas Goodrich, McIntosh county; L. M. Ander son, Newton county; W. T. Day, Pickens county. The report cf the election of William Dykes, from Macon county, is incorrect. The list foots up one Senator apd ten members of the House. The Blade is very jubilant, and avows that the Radi cals could have easily elected thirty or forty additional members had they made the effort. This is the legitimate outcome of Democratic divisions.

Mr. Freeman is the only surviving passen ger of the Clermont, the first steamboat which ever went uptbe Hudson to Albany. He is the youngest and last surviving ol thirteen children. His father, Elisha Freeman, was a sea captain before he be came a farmer, and Was Invited to go on' board the Clermont, with his wife and son. Robert Livingston, who at one time was the American ambassador at Paris, furnished Robert Fulton with funds to build the Clermont in the spring of 1807. Her length of keel was 140 feet and her beam 101 feet. She was trim and hand some with tbs exception of her boilers, machinery and smokestack, which were rude, cumbrous and of formidable dimen sions. The sidewheel was also a clumsy affair, with twelve huge paddles, held in place by a ring half way between their extremities and the hub. They sent the water splashing over the deck at every revolution. The top of the smoke-stack was thirty feet above the deck, nearly as high as the two masts, from the rear one of which floated the stars and stripes. Mr. Freeman was an iufant at the time and does not pretend to recollect, except as a dim and. indistinct dream,. anything about tit* steam boat's first trip, hut con stant rehearsals of the scenes and inci dents, made to him in his youth, have vividly impressed the whole event on his memory. Hours before tbe steamboat started, a great multitude assembled along the North river to witness the expected inglorious ending of what was generally known as “Fulton’s Folly.” ‘God help you, Bobby,” cried one. ‘Bring us back a chip of the North Pole,” pried another. “A fool and his money is soon parted,” cried a third. Fulton, with a confident smile, went on superintending preparations for the start. Smoke issued from the stack. The haw sers were hauled in. The sidewheel quivered and slowly revolved. Fulton himself, with his hand on tbe helm, turned her bow to the stream. . He was pale, but confident and self-possessed. The Cler mont moved into the river. The ponder ous machinery thumped and groaned, the wheel frantically splashed tbe water, and the stack belched like a volcano. But the vessel moved, and those on board waved their bats and gave a cheer. Those on shore followed suit and shut up a mighty shout. The hitherto incredulous and jecr- pulace of New York were the first to do Fulton honor. And so the Clermont steamed away up tbe Hudson and passed ont of sight, amid the prolonged and noisy acclamations of the multitude. This was on .September 15, ISO”. Thirty-six hours afterward, on September 17, she reached Albany. She liad stopped, however, at the residence of Chancellor Livingston on her way up. Her speed was five miles an hour. A STARTLING APPARITION. As may well be believed, her appear ance on the river startled the crews of Hie passing craft. Few of the skippers, in those days of slow mail and no tele graph, could havd been prepared to on- counter such a mysterious object. It was at night, however, that the Clermont cre ated its greatest effect. Her appearance spread consternation and terror on ali sides. It was rerj usrK, and the fires were fed with dry white pine wood, and this, when stirred, sent up columns of flames and sparks from the mouth of the tall stack. This floating volcano, moving steadily through the darkness up the mid dle of the river, accompanied by the rumbling and groaning of the machinery, intensified by the silence all around, was calculated to alarm and strike terror Into the souls of the sailors on board the sloops and other crafts coming down with grain and farm produce. They had never heard of any motive power lor ships except wind, and were, moreover, extremely su perstitious. “My father told ine,” said Mr. Free man, “that whole crews fell upon their knees and besought Divine Providence to protect them from the terrible monster that was marching oh the tide, lighting up its pathway with lire.” Mrs. Freeman, the mother of the Rev, F. R. Freeman, saw a workman emerging from the engine room—a place very sug gestive to her of the infernal regions—car rying in his hand a Jadie fall of molten lead. With this he stopped up tire holes here and there in tbe machinery where steam was escaping. Captain Freeman was informed that the man had been do ing the same thing ever since the Clermont left New York. The people of Albany had been informed of the coming of the steamboat, and tbe whole town turned ont to receive Robert Fulton and his won derful vessel. They gave both an enthu siastic reception. After a short stay at Albhny, the Clermont returned to New York,* making the trip in thirty-four hours. The attendants fell back when Mr. Worth approached and stood in a respect ful group near the young woman ou the pedestal. The master himself cast a rapid glance over the work of art which had been produced under his direction, and then he began sticking in pins almost as rapidly as the eye could follow him, and tearing out others which less skillful bauds had already placed to the dress. Presently he called for the “pattern'hook,” and turned over many samples before lie found the exact trimming which bp want ed. He tried the effect of tills by placing it on the dress, and then resumed his work of pinning or unpinning—like a sculptor who was engaged in putting the finishing touches to his statue. The dress itself was a beautiful object, but not too beautiful for the charming young lady who is destined to wear it—Miss Vander bilt. It was drawn and designed by Mr. Worth, and*(Is progress was evidently watched with the utmost interest by the whole staff. The attendants flock ed in to look at it, and the young lady upon whom it was being fitted seemed as proud as a duchess. It was wonderful what changes the hand of the master made in a lew minutes—here a piece was ripped up in order that a more graceful outline might be secured; there a new trimming or decoration wa3 introduced,' and every where a few touches effected an obvious improvement. It was a ball dress3 tuch os young ladies dream of in inspired visions. If placed in a room by itself it would at tract universal admiration. What, then, will be thn effect when the fair owner adds her own beauty to it ? Nearly all the fabrics used in the dresses made by Mr. Worth are manufactured from designs of his own, for he is a great inventor and designee, and »»»:•* *“» dinner tame a siieet or paper is often by hi? side, and on it lie draws designs for some new costume destined to captivate the male sex and till the other sex witii envj. Dress with Mr. Worth is a fine art worthy of calling into exercise the highest human faculties.—New York World. Worth, the Dress Dictator. Paris, September Iff.—There is a sac red shrine in Paris to which all ladies en dowed with taste and money (and one is no use without the other) desire to make a pilgrimage. It stands in the Rtie de la Paixj and live letters only are inscribed over the door. Those five letters com prise the magic name of “Worth.” It is perhaps impossible for one of the interior sex to enter into the emotions which thrill through the femalemindonfirst approach ing thus Mecca of their sex. The great high priest within is visible only to a few favored worshippers, but, provided the pilgrim arrives with due tribute and offer- i tigs in her hands, she need not fear to cross the sacred threshold. Attendant nymphs will receive her and couluct her to the inner chambers where thereat goddess Dress receives daily her throngs of worshippers. If the neophyte comes in an humble frame of mind, con fessing her ignorance and seeking for en lightenment, she will at once be put upon the right path. If, on the other hand, her head is full ot her own desires and conceits, no word of counsel will be offer ed to lier. The presiding genius disdains to offer suggestions when they are not sought for. To get the full benefit of his knowledge and experience, you must show that you have come to be taught, not to teach. “This dress should be taken in here and let oat there,” said a rash Amer ican lady once to Mr. Worth, who was graciously pleased to superintend the mo mentous operation of trying on. “Mad ame,” said he, “I am obiiged to you for your advice, and your ideas shall be car ried out.” And so they • were, but she never saw Mr. Worth again. One must not dictate to the dictator. It was, I trust, with a becoming senti ment of awe that I ascended the stair case of this renowned abode of the graces, in company with two friends of mine who arc .among the initiated, and who are even enrolled on the precious list entitled to be ushered Into tbe presence of. Mr. Worth himself. I think it must have been the Marquise de Carrabbas who received us; at any rate she was a splendid crea ture, with a diamond locket arouud her neck and beautiful rings on her fingers, and a dress— ye gods, what a dress! do not ask me to describe it, for I cannot, any more than I [can describe, the .starry, heavens at midnight; but this I khow^it was the most beautiful in hue and shape, and that the train thereof was as the tail of the comet which, long,years ago, I re member seeing stretched all across the sky—even Donati’s comet. The wearer of this dress was graceful and good-look ing, and if I am any judge of such mat ters, she had a charming figure. When one has gone much to and fro in the world, the truth comes home to tbe mind that after all it has nothing better to show than a perfect female figure. Making good use of my eyes, therefore (as it Mr. Worth was not all that fancy had painted him; in fact, lie was nothing more than a shrewd, aetlve, business-like loot- inO man, with a head so like the portraits of Oliver Goldsmith that doubtless tbe resemblance has often been commented upon. He shook hands with my friends, and when asked how be was he declared, that he was “assassinated” by the het weather, and almost overwhelmed with work, ne had on an alpaea coat with pins stuck in and near tho collar, for use in the exerche of his craft, and ^rqd necktie, which bore marks ot the ‘‘assassi nating” weather. Every instant one or other of the attend ants came in to ask a question or receive an order. “I am run down on every side,” said be; “at this moment four ladies are waiting for me to sec their dresses tied on But do not go away—come with me.” Thus saying he led the way to an apart ment which seemed to be the inner sanc tuary, for an affiche warned off all intru ders. A portiere was pulled aside and there was suddenly revealed what looked like a “lay figure,” standing upon a ped estal in the middle of the* room, with sev eral female attendants hustling Actively round about it. Towards this, object Mr. Worth advanced with quick steps, and the figure moved, and even turned its head; and then I saw that It was a real live woman, one of tbe ladies of the establish ment, who was having a dress tried on by way of experiment before it was shown tha customer. She, too, had a bewitching fig ure, but of course I fixed ray attention upon the dress and regarded not the wear- apalr. THE LETTERS furnished by Mr. Hill are as follows: - Office offiKilliam ENDodge, 11, Cliff street, New York, September 24, 1880 Dear Sir: Colonel J. T. Collins, a vet eran of the war, a good soldier, an up. right gentleman, an active business mau and a first-class citizen, who is intimately and personalty known to me, is running for Congress in the first district of Geor gia. The district is 3,000 Republican. He ought to be elected and he can with some material assistance.* They have raised' all they can there; we ought to assist him here and insure his election. We sil know how Important it is. I propose to do fully my share. Will you not help us by inclosing check for a moderate sura, say $50 or $100 to the chairman of the National Committee, ex-Governor Jewell, marked, “Special—first district Georgia,” Who agrees to be responsible for the proper disbursement of snch contribu tions. The funds are wanted for the pay ment of poll tax and other legitimate ex penses, which the colored Republicans are unable themselves to defray." A mode rately liberal contribution will insure .his election. I shall subscribe $250. Yours ’; Fafets in relation la the first Congres- of sional district of Georgia: The census 1880 gives the above district 15,451 white and 17,418 colored voters. The colored men are nearly all Republicans; and at least 1,200 of the white voters are Repub licans, giving on a full vote a Republican majority of about 3,000. Owing to the fact that a capitation or poll tax is required from all voters before tliey are allowed to vote, a large number of colored iqen who cannot pay the above tax are disfranchised, and their votes lost to the Republican party.- Could those taxes be paid, and a full vote be polled the district would be Republican beyoru any doubt. There are three candidates in the field now for Congress, a Republican, a Democrat, and an Independent Demo crat on the Greenback liue. The latter wijl, to some extent, split the Democratic party, and make the chances for the elec tion of a Republican much betterl This opportunity to gain a Republican Con cressman who will be sound on the finan cialand tariff questions, is one that should be taken advantage of, and every effort made to secure his election.

Mobile Compromises. ■ New YorR, October 14.—A meeting was held to-day in the committee room of the Equitable Building, of tbe commis sioners of the city of Mobile, Alabama, and the holders of the bonds of said city. William II. Hayes, chairman of tie; bond holders’ committee, presided. Over one million dollars’ worth of bonds wore rep resented. The commissioners were Messrs. 8. M. Wilson, James A. McC'arr and Stephen Groom. Their counsel, Col. John Little Smith, of Mobile, was also present. The commissioners pro posed to make payments in the following manner: te issue bonds to pay 3 per cent, for ton year*, 4 per cent, for ten years and 5 per cent, for teuyears. After some dis cussion their proposition was amended and passed as follows: ' Three per cent, for five years, 4 per cent, for fifteen years and 5 per cent, for five years, There* was scarcely auy opposition to the proposition. Senator Hill on the Presidential Campaign. Mr. Hill has just returned from a pro tracted visit to the North, where he par ticipated actively in the New York can- vass and studied tlia whole political situa tion with the greatest care. In response questions by a Constitution porter, lie expresses himself with cheer fulness concerning the result in Indiana and Ohio. The Senator says it will be a great mistake for our people to allow themselves to be cast down and discour aged thereby. We quote his language, as follows: “Indeed, the worst effect of these elec tions will be this feeling of discourage ment. The ' Republicans will press this effect with great skill, and the Democrats who yield to it will be doing effective ser vice for Garfield. Some of the causes which have wrought Republican success in the State elections will not even exist In the general election in November, oth ers will be less potential, and still other causes which aided the Republicans yes terday will aid the Democrats in Novem ber.” “Will you be kind enough to state the causes to which you allude S’” “I prefer not to do so now for the pub- There are good reasons why I should lie. not do so. That my views are correct is manifest from the fact that I predicted these results in writing ten day3 ago. I hope our people will not be discouraged. We must increase rather than relax our efforts. We cau win iu November if we will, and if we fail It will be our own fault.” “ You think, then, that Hancock can be elected without Ohio and Indiana?” “I certainly do. I have never placed his success on those States. I thought it possible wo might carry Indiana in No vember, and think so yet, but success does not depend on that State. Defeat in the Western States does not destroy the plan on which Democratic success is expected, though it was thought we could carry In diana even on the plan intimated with Mr. English on the ticket. Perhaps I have now said enough on this subject for the present. “Let me say another thing, and it is this: The present struggle between the Republican and Democratic parties is not only fierce in character, but without pre cedent in its significance, and while I think the chances are with the Democra cy, I also think the result by no means certain. The coalition between sectional hate, religious bigotry and the money of the North was never more cordial, earnest or desperate than now. Factious divisions have been healed in the Republican party. The most ultra wing of the Republican party is to control Garfield’s administra tion. The preachers have gone on the stump, and the capitalists are pouring out the funds by the million. The issue is the people and constitutionalism against dupes and absolutism. There never was a time when the Democratic party was more needed, or had a greater struggle on its hands. This is no time for cowards or factionists.” “t>o you think the defeat of Hancock will end the Democratic party ? ” “No, sir; no. sir. The Democratic par- and constitutional government iu America, will end together. Winn the people shall consent to abandon the first they will consent to abandon the speond. Tliey are united in life, and in death they will not be divided. j “I admit that, the party has committed mistakes. I know some individual, Dem- ocrats during the campaign have com mitted blunders which amount to political crimes. But I prefer not to speak of these things now. Let us all now have but one thought, and that is how to suc ceed. Three weeks from now I miy be willing to say many things of which I will not now speak. ‘tlhad almost forgotten to say one thing _ must not omit to say.

Thcfe coun ties gave in 1876 a net Democratic major ity of 1,566, which, if there are no thanges from that vote, would give a Republican majority on the State ticket of 5,32D. The Contest in the fifth district is very close, and it will require an official count to de termine the. result.

The situa tion of thi canvass was discussed indetail ThSL/ol’owinK address Was adopted: So inf i/tmvcriuiu tmu ters of the country: The election O President and Vice-President is i|ow be fore you. State and local dissensions are eliminated^from the issues of the day. The magnitude of a victory or a. defeat can only be estimated by the forties and means employed in securing it. By fraud and corruption the people of the country were defeated in tjifir pur- >ose fn 1876/and * the rightfully elected President was kept from office. With the combined capital of the Republican party, aided by repeated assessments upon an army of office holders, with foe power of the Federal government represented by United States marshals at the polls, with intimidation, fraud and a resort to every corrupt appliance known to Republican methods, concentrated in two States, our adversaries have succeeded in procuring the probable return of their local candi dates. • Can It be possible that in every State throughout this broad land the same methods can be brought to bear thkt were used by the Republican managers in In diana and Ohio? Can foe great States of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, California, Colorado, Nevada and New Hampshire be bought, intimidated and de frauded? Even without the vote of In diana, which'we believe will be redeemed in November, with New York and New Jersey, and the States that are conceded to us, including Maiue, the election of our candidate is assured. The Jiepublican party have put in nom ination for President aud Vice-President two men who, by the admission of their own party and press, are unworthy of your confidence and your suffrages.' It is impossible that fifty millious of Intelli gent and patriotic people will b econtent to )lac9 themselves upon the humiliating evel thus prepared for them by tha Re publfoau managers. Fellow citizens, the first day’s repulse at Gettysburg ended ( on the third, with Hancock to front, in . a glorfous victory. That victoiy secured ns our Union. The question is not now the preservation pf. that Union, but of constitutional government. Hancock is now, as then, in the-front. The repulse is now, as then, the opran of victory, which will secure to comlug gen erations the inestimable blessing of civil liberty. _ . By order of the National Democratic Committee. Wu. H.

A Serious and Singular Loss.— Mrs. Emma Simms, residing at Noi 1325 Fifth street northwest, Washington city, but stopping in Baltimore, dropped a package of notes, amounting to $1,390, from hei pocket on North Gay street, near Dalias street, about ten o’clock yesterday morning. . The money, somewhat, scat tered about, was picked up by Mr. John Myers.He remembered that it was - the day of the grand procession, and looked, upon the shower of greenbacks as a sham or some advertising delusion, and at once resolved to make it a complete give away and handed the money around to all who desired it,-with au abandon beautiful to behold. Scenes that were ludicrous in the extreme ensued, although their eiliding was serious. The idea of 3Ir. Myers took ; readily, ahd five-cent cigars were coolly lighted with twenty-dollar notes, nearly all the money being in 'notes of .that denomination. Street gamins past ed a few around on awning posts to deceive unsuspecting strangers. A boy so Id-one $20-note for 25 cents, and it is said . $500 additional were sold for the same amount. A lady, residing not far away, got a $20 note,' which she said she would keep in memory ot the great cele bration. A friend begged her for it that she might frame and keep it, and tlie lady ;ave it to her. Mrs. Simms meanwhile nformed officer Gibson‘of her loss. He hastened to the spot and managed to re*, cover $450 of the amount, among it tlie $20 note gotten by tbe lady mentioned above. Tlie discovery of the facts caused consternation among those who had. so freely made away with wl»at they be lieved to be bogus treasure, and much re-' pet was expressed for the loss sustained >y Mrs. Simms. The case is decidedly one of the most singular on record.—Bal timore Sun. Georgia and New Hampshire Once More.—Augusta Chronicle: We learn that Hon. John S. Davidson received on yesterday a letter from tbe Democratic Committee of New Hampshire, informing him that a resolution had been unani mously passed Inviting him to return to that State, and asking lrm to come at once.

The International Railway. r Denver; Col;, October 16.—An official copy Of!the railway concession recently granted by the'Mexican government to the company authorized to be formed by Messrs. Palmer and Sullivan has been re ceived, and 1 the Mexican National Con struction Company organized here under the Jaws of Colorado to work the conces sion. The contract is for the construction in eight years of thirteen hundred miles of narrow gauge railroad, with telegraph, from foe City of Mexico to the frontier of foe Unitgd,States, and to foe Pacific ocean, in consideration of a money subsidy aver aging $10,900 per mile, the total subsidy payable in railroad construction j certifi cates, to be issued on tbe completion of the first ninety-t,wo miles, and thereafter as each twelve miles are built. It amounts to upwards of $14,009,000 absolute bonus, the payment of which is assured by a pro- payments shall be made in coin or other wise than in these railroad construction certificates to the extent of four dollars in every hundred of duties due, under pen alty of a second payment.-The obligation of tbe government is limited to 4 per cent, of the import duties in any year. The certificates can be bought only j of foe company, which is compelled to keep agencies for their sale, and is prohibited from exacting more than par for; them. The government binds itself for the whole contract'period of 99 years not tp grant any subsidies to parallel roads within 65 miles on either side, and permits the com pany to accept additional subsidies from State governments. It exempts ibr fifty years after the road is completed from national or municipal duties or taxes all material for .construction, operation or maintenance, excepting only'stamp dues ; requires mails and messengers carried free, and that Federal troops and immigrant arriving under government assignment shall be carried . 60 percent, less than regular tariffj stipulates that ^ TT_. | the tariff shall not, without the company’s consent, be changed lor ninety-nine years, aud classifies foe passenger tariffs as fol lows: First class 4 6-10 cents; second class, 3fc cents; third class, 1-16 cents per mile; merchandise,' first class, 6| cents per ton; tecdud class, 5 1-10 cents; third clats, 3-J cents per ton per mile.

Passengers, mails anu merchandise will be exempted for twenty- five years after the completion of tlie road from all dues, ex cept a transit duly not exceeding $1 per passenger or per ton. The inter national line must he completed from the City pf Mexico to the Texas border at Laredo, or some point between- Laredo and Eagle Pass, within eight years. Tbe Pacific line must be completed to Manza nillo, or any point between that and Nov- idad, within live years. Two hundred and twenty-seven miles,divided in any (fosired proportion between the two lines,must be completed every two years, hut there is a prohibition against beginning construction at the United States frontier until the completion of the’ last division is an nounced. The company expect to finish thei inter national line to the Rio Graude, to effect au unbroken communication witii the railway system of the United States,with in three years. The first section of the line is already accepted and 1,000 men and 5,000 tons of steel rails have been or dered for the work. The company has one of its offices at Colorado Springs and one at the City of Mexico. The principal office will be in New York. Its subscrip tion of four million dollars, made up last summer by Gen. Palmer upon condition of securing the grant, will now be called up by the Union Construction Company by iustallments. West Virginia Election.' Wheeling, October 15.—Only a ew more counties in this State have reported. No reports of auy consequence have been received from the Kanawha Valley re gion, where the Greenback vote was prin cipally cast. The Democrats claim the Slate by from 12,000 to 15,000 majority, and the chairman of the Republican State committee concedes it by 8,000. It will take several days to settle precisely how t K e State has gone. Melviu and McCon nell (Republicans) are elected judges in the first circuit. The amendments to the constitution are adopted by a large major ity. The Legislature will be Democratic iu both brancaies. A Fartaaate SXfbborllood. The vicinity of No. 85 Avenue B, in the city of New York, must be regarded as a peculiarly fortunate one. A month or two ago Mr. Max Stern, residing there, drew $15,000 iu the Grand Monthly Dis tribution of the Louisiana State Lottery, and in the September drawing Mr. L. £5. Fleischman, residing within five doors, and well known as an energetic dealer in fancy goods, millinery, etc., was attacked witii similar symptoms, and bolding a half ticket No. 99,887, for which he had sent by mail to M. A. Dauphin, either at No. 319 Broadway, New York City, or else to the same person at New Orleans, La.. acketed the handsome sum of $1,250. he frequency of such incidents must make any judicious person wonder why he should not be the next favorite of for tune. kets are always sensitive st the prospect cf a change of national policy, and espe- J daily when tne changes are of a kiud di rectly bearing on commercial and finan cial interests. A change of party ascendancy would I introduce a modification of policy on some points, and perhaps a complete reversal upou others. Among the matters that, iu such event, would be subjected to dis-| turbance, would be thd settlement of the public debt, onr currency arrangements, the attitude of the government towards I large corporations, the system of taxation I and the tariff. They are all large issues, vitally connected with tbe public welfare, and although on e»ch one wise legislation might improve on the existing statute, yet there is no assurance that the changes would be wise, while it is certain that the j protracted discussion pf such questions 1 would produce an unsettled fueling detri- | mental to business. In any event, mpn of ] business always shrink from important j changes from existing arrangements, no I matter how much better lefpslatiou may j be needed. Merchants like to be let alone; they prefer the certainties of to-day to the un- : certainties of a prospective change. This 1 is especially their mood at this moment. They have endured seven years of unpre cedented commercial depression aud of ] barrassing debate of public questions; and having at length reached a settlement of many important national issues, and being in the midst of a prosperous revival of trade, they prefer a continuance of the basis established by recent legislation to having all the lately settled questions re opened. Such a temper is not to be wondered at. Merchants are not statesmen, and have no relish for law-making. Give them a condition:of things under which they can mako money, and they care tor noth ins more. That they conceive to be the end. of statesmanship; and ali the machinery of.politics and the arts of iaw-tinkeriug are an abomination to them, so far as such things interfere with fois chief end of the maintenance of the state. This Tery natural mercantile sentiment has gone Far towards creating a disposi tion among the business community to re tain the government under the party now In power. The opposition have little dreamed that their promises to correct the errorspf the “ins ” and establish a belter i order tof things were the very things that frightened men of business away from them; but the remarkable demonstrations of the mercantile and banking classes in favor of continuing the Republican party in power leaves no doubt that thss is the fact. Indeed, it may be safely said that the controlling factor in the present campaign is the strong desire of the mercantile community to have, at least for the next four years, an era of political rest. This being the fact, the reason of the response of yester day’s markets to the elections to Ohio aud. Indiana becomes readily apparent. in Atlauta, in behalf of Colonel Hammond < and our national nominees, after an ear nest endorsement of the former, who is the regularly nominated candidate for Congress of the Democracy, reverting to Federal politics, said: - The Republican party has never had a popular majority in tills country. This was established by a most interesting re view of the history of that party. The Democratic party goes iuto the national fight with better, advantages than ever be fore. There are now no returning boards in this country, The Democrats have a right to vote and aright to count, and they will exercise these rights. The party has put forward one of the best men in it as a J candidate for the presidency. Some ob- I ject to Hancock because lie has been edu cated as a military man. This is not a valid reason. Hancock, although a mili tary man, admitted the - supremacy of the civil over the military power, and acted upon that suggestion. He was greater in peace than war—therefore worthy to fill the seat of Washington. I think that General Hanoock will be elected if the people shall be true to themselves. They : will have to overcome some difficulties, i however. The Greenback patty Is troub- j lesorae. It is charged that Weaver, its candidate, » running to foe interest of the Republican. party; don’t know how true ! that Is. It is openly charged. At any j rate Weaver will probably take one or [ two hundred thousand votes from thq Democratic ranks. I was not surprised that Indiana went Republican. It is v unwise to stake the grand result on one State. I don’t be- j iieve that Indiana has decided the elec- I tion. I believe that Hancock is stronger in Indiana thau English. Hancock will be : elected, but the struggle will be a hard one. Tlie fight lias been intensified by ! reconcilaition of the opposing factions j of the Republican party. I think the evi-! deuce is overwhelming that a bargain has j been made by which, If Garfield be elect ed; the Conkling wing of the party will i control his administration to secure I tho nomination aud election of Grant in 1884. This explains why the Grant j wing are now trying to carry a solid North against a solid South. It would j be a national calamity should they sue- j ceed. I think that they will fail. * \ J. F.
