It. is charged by Democrats that the Radicals are importing negroes into North Carolina from Maryland and Virginia, to vote for Hayes and Settle. i m m Tuk Cincinnati Enquirer of Suturday says that private advices from the Pacific Coast concede Oregon and California to the Democracy in November. Nevada is regarded as doubtful. A Noutiusun paper remarks that the worst thing Teu>kn ever did was to give General Grant ft ,000 towards buying him a house soon alter the war. And the beet thing that Hayes never did was not io give Ghant a cent for bis house.. It Is estimated that twenty-four hundred people crowded into the Opera House on Monday night to hear Mr. Hill's speech. Many of them, unable to obtain seats, stood patiently for two hours, and would have stood,much longer if Mr. Hill had spoken longer. Senator Thurman is reported to have written to a friend in Washington that if tire DcmocrU bud not from the start conceded Ohio to the Republicans as a matter ot course, the latter could not have carried it. He also expresses the confi dent opinion that Ohio will go Demo cratic in November. ■ 9 • Wo call attention to the aitlclo which we copy from the Now York World, showing the illegality of Fed eral interference with the elections in the States, and how emphatically und unmistakably the Supreme Court of the United States has pro nounced such interference as Grant and Taft are now conducting uncon stitutional. i > ♦ Republicans who are confident that Mr. Hays will, if elected, go In for reform within the party and assert all the independence of character he hasn’t got, will be interested in the utterance of Mr. Morton: “Tbe men to whom he owes his election, who have defeuded him from assaults, to whom ho must look for support in the future, will, ordinarily, control hts action, and he will do nothing offensive to them.” A Washington dispatch of the 20th to the New York World says that an additional assessment of 2 per oent. for election purposes has been levied upon the Department clerks; also, that “lor the first time in the history of these raids an assessment has been made on the non-commissioned offi cers and soldiers of the regular army, who have been detailed in the War Department for clerical duty. The regular army is therefore not only to be made to do its work in the field, but to contribute out of the pay of its file for the election purposes of the Republican party. Accompanying this assessment is a circular requir ing those who have not fully paid their former assessments to make up their deficiency and respond to the last demand.” Manger or Lampblark. Tnc Boston Commercial Bulletin makes the following rather startling state ment: Within two years there have been three shoe shops lost in Massachusetts, so tho records state, from lampblack. A hand damp with perspiration, a drop of water, a hit of grease, or a sprinkle of oil, will create '.the combustion which will start lampblack nglow like, charcoal, and so ignite the package; and hence the blaze. In lampblack factories, while great pre caution is taken to prevent fires, a rainy or a sharp frosty day may start a dampness upon the inside of a window pane, nnd the flying particles of dust lighting upon this creates the spark, which commun icating to the pile, sends a glow of fire with wonderful rapidity through the galleries of the shop. In cle&ulng up the smoke galleries if the men let a drop of perspiration fall into a pile they instantly scoop up the black in and about where it lodges and take it out of the heuse. Jim Monroe, a colored Republican, writes to tho Montgomery Advertiser from Fitzpatrick’s Station, in refer ence to tho pretended “nomination” of William H. Betts for Congress in the 3d District of Alabama. He says that the ao-called “Convention” which nominated Betts was com posed of delegates from Bullock and Lee counties and a proxy voting for Barbour—that there were no del egates from Russell, Henry, Dale, Coffee or Geneva; and that neither he nor anybody else whom he has been able to see knew how the dele gates from Bullock were appointed, or by whom. He calls “the whole thing one of the rottenest swindles ever heard of,” and says that he and "lots of his color” will sooner vote for Mr. Williams than be tricked in this way. Monroe also says that Betts has not been heard from in ref erence to the nomination, and can not be found; and that he is told that Betts has not been in the 3d District two weeks in two years. A RADICAL CALCULATION. Pigurlng has been tho order of the day among politicians of both sides sinco the October elections. The ease and unvarying certainty with yrhioh each ono elects the candidate of his choice would disgust us with arithmetic if we could forget the time-honored maxim that “figures never lie.'' Tho maxim may prove to be true even in this instance, and still the result may show that the politicians do lie most egregiousiy in the Improper placing of the figures. Ono would suppose that if the elec tions in Ohio and Indiana could be re garded as determiding the Presiden tial votes of those States at all.it would boadmittted that they indicated that Ohio would go Republican, land In dfana Democratic, November. Rut wo find that all the Republican cal culators now put down Ohio ns cer tainly Republican and Indiana as— doubtful! and this notwithstanding the fact that Indiana, with only a little over half the aggregate vote of Ohio, gave a Democratic majority about as large as Ohio’s Republioan, at tho election hold the other day. It is evident that u calculation ar riving at the same result from a majority of six thousand in one State and a minority of six thousand in another, is not very trustworthy. Tho Washington Cnronicle, one of the Administration home organs, has made a “calculation,” and, follow ing the rule prevalent with its party, it claims Ohio as cortainly for Hayes, and puts down Indiana as “doubt ful.” But, with all this unfairness, and after claiming Floridu and North Carolina as certain for Hayes, it still fulls short by one of claiming a ma jority of the Electoral college. Wo copy its calculation; STATES CERTAIN JFOtt HAYES. Illinois 31 Colorado S 10w5....... 11 Nevada.. 8 Kaunas 6 New Hampshire...... 6 Maine 7 Ohio 22 Massachusetts 13 Pennsylvania 21) Michigan 11 Rhode Island 4 Minnesota 6 Vermont 5 Nebraska 3 Wisconsin 10 Sontn Carolina 7 Florida 4 California 0 North Carolina 10 Total 184 DOUBTFUL STATES. Connecticut ItiLoulaiana 8 Indiana IS New Jersey 9 New York. B*l Oregon a Total 78 It is not necessary to enlargo upon the hard-pressed situation of the Rad cal party when It has to claim North Carolina and Florida for Hayes, and even then cannot figure out a major ity of “States certain” for him. The claim of those two States proves con clusively that the Radicals count on States in which their prospects are as dark as a cloudy' and moonless midnight, and when they cannot show a majority even in this way, it is evident that they are tottering on tho brink of “the last ditch.” COI NTIKU THU KLCTOHAI, VOTE. We copy from the Cincinnati Ga zelle' a statement showing that the Re publican Senate of tho United States, at its late session, took the ground that there were no joint rules of the two houses in force. This, too, is the Democratic view, and it appears that noaotlon which continued the rules can be found in the proceedings of Congress. This being the case, tho opening and counting of the Electo ral vote for President and Vice Presi dent is left where tho Constitution leaves it, that is, that the presiding officer of the Senate shall open and count the votes in the presence of both houses of Congress. We have no doubt that this is all the “rule” on the subject that the framers of the constitution contemplated. It makes it tho duty of the President of the Senate to open and declare all the votes properly sent for that purpose. The framers of the constitution never contem plated any such knavery as the send ing of false returns of the votes, or the votes of persons falsely repre sented to have been chosen Electors. They relied upon tho Integrity of the State officials, and made it the duty of Congress to recognize and respect their authority. The ques tion arises, is there any daDger that the Governors of any States in tho Union will betray their trust and perjure themselves by making a false return? We are vory suro that none of them can be suspected of suoh a thing except the four Radical Gov ernors that are still in power in the Southern States, and we hope that eYon these men will not have the effrontery, even if they have the disposition, to attempt a swindle and fraud of that kink. Morns Rascality in Louisiana,— The New Orleans Democrat of Monday re ports as a “mysterious affair” an at tempt to steal and carry away the books and papers in the office of the State Superintendent of Registra tion. The office wus broken into, and, according to common report, the police, detecting the attempted theft, had a conflict with tbe intru ders, in which two of tho police were badly beaten, but which ended in the arrest of Miles Sharkey and Joseph McMahon as “accessories to a bur glary and robbery.” The Democrat says: “There is little doubt that this robbery was aßadlcaljobputupwith a view of charging it upon the Demo crats. However, it was entirely too thin. Had it been successful, and the books and papers of the registra tion office made way with, the result would likely have been the virtual nullifying of tho election in Orleans, the largest Democratic parish in the State—a result in accomplishing which the Radicals have a very deep concern, and which the interests of the Democrats required to be pre vented.” Cnukiac Figure*. Albany Argus.l In 1856-57-58-59 and 1860, five years, the disbursements of the War De partment were $101,348,944. For the years 1872-73-74-75 and 1876, five years, under Belknap, the disbursements have been $203,100,757, more than double the amount of expenses in curred for the support of the army for five years before the war. HR. IIVUi ON OUI <<>;\4;Ul*Slo\AL KMSirrxox. It is the general impression that Mr. Hill, by his forcible presentation of the necessity of securing a Demo cratic majority in the next House of Representatives, and to mako this assurance doubly sure, the need of an undivided Democratic delegation from Georgia, did more than any other effort of tho canvass to prevent a diversion of any part of the Demo cratic vote to Mr. Hilliard. He did this without tho slightest imputa tion upon Mr. Hilliard’s qualifica tions, bis conduct, or his motives. Not a word of disrespect or dispar agement did ho utter. But he plainly showed the Democratic party that oven with the President they could do little in tho way of reform or cor rection without control of tho House; and if they lost the House as well os the President and theSenote, they would have no check whatever upon Radioal aggression, extravagance and corruption. He contended that with a nearly “solid" South the Democrats would be sure to have a majority in tho House—that they could more certainly secure such a majority than they could elect tho President. But he argued withi rresistible force that they could not afford to risk the loss of the House by the loss of a single Congressional District in the South. They could not afford to en trust so important a matter to the course of any Representative of doubtful political associations or di vided party obligations. They need ed Democrats, elected ns such, and in close affiliation with the only party that can save the country from mis rule and plunder and the constitu tion and rights of tho people from further violence. It was an appeal that went home to the judgment and patriotism of men and convinced them that in a crisis like this they must avail themselves of every op portunity to defeat Radical legisla tion, and to do this they must be “solid” for pronounced Democratic Congressmen as well as for the Dem ocratic Presidential ticket. THE COLOR OF THE VOTE, NOT OF THE iKJN 7 ■■■■ New York World, 20th,) If there were no negroes in South Carolina, and if the voters were all white men, does any one think the Administration at Washington would pay any regard to the application of its executive, or order troops into mat State? If it were the Governor of California or Maine who applied at Washington, would not Grant say that each State must manage its own police affairs, und that he would not assume au “insurrection,” excepting upon a quantity and quality of evi dence not to be questioned, and which demonstrated beyond doubt that the officers of the law, resolutely ondeavoring to arrest the criminals, were powerless? What difference can the color of the voter’s skin make in the legal authority of tho United States in South Carolina? None, unless under the fifteenth amendment, wliieh only declares that the right to vote shall not be de nied or abridged, by auy State, on account of “raee, color or previous condition of servitude.” The Supreme Court has said this amendment "cannot confer the right of suffrage upon any one,” but only authororized Congress to guarantee its exercise whenever it teas denied or abridged on account of “race, color," etc. Before this amendment New York couldexclude a citizen from voting on account of his color, just as on account of age or sex or crime. But not now. If a negro is excluded be cause pigeon-toed, every one else must bo thus excluded. The Supreme Court think said in tbe case of Reese: “It has not been contended, nor can it be. that the amendment con fers authority to impose penalties for every wrongful refusal to receive the vote of a qualified elector at State elections. It is only when the wrongful refusal at such an elec tion is because of race, color or previous condition of servitude that Congress can interfere and pro vide for its punishment.” What is true of Congress is equal true of the President. In tho Slaughter-House cases the Supreme Court said that none of the negro amendments gave to the Fed eral Government authority over the “domain of civil rights heretofore belonging exclusively to the States.” They only were intended to stamp out laws in any State which discrimina ted against African citizens as a class. TheCourtsay: “We doubt very much whether any action of a State not directed by way of discrimination against the negroes as a class, or on account of their raee, will ever be held to come within the purview of this provision.” In other opinions the Court declare that, excepting as to race, color, and citizenship, the police powers of the States, and their control over voting, is what it always was, and neither more nor less. Now, nobody pretends that South Carolina denies or abridged to ne groes the right of voting, on account of color, or race, or former servitude. Therefore not Congress, nor the Pres ident, can on that account get inside that State with troops. What, then, is the pretense ? That there is an “insurrection.” Against whom or what? The “State.” Where or how? By white men. or ganized in rifle or sabre clubs, and who, to use the felicitous language of Grant, “ride up and down by night and day” intimidating voters by va rious reprehensible and intolerable methods. Do these intimidators re sist process of courts ? Never. How, then, is it insurrection against a "State ?” This is the pretense. What is the fact ? The black population of South Carolina is in a tremendous majority. State officials and all Federal officials are Republicans. The white Demo crats have been in a sad minority. The negroes have been taught that if they do not vote the Republican ticket Grant can and will remand them to servitude. In this election the ne groes are in large numbers uphold ing Hampton and Democracv. If a negro proposes to vote the Republi can ticket, he is approved and ap plauded by his own race and the Fed eral officials, but if he prefers the Democratic ticket, the same persons “intimidate” him. This is on account of tho color of his vote and not of his skin. If a ne gro be driven away from the polls because holding a Republican vote, and welcomed when he brings a Dem ocratic vote, his voting free-will has been denied or abridged, noton ac count of “race, color or previous con dition of servitude,” but on account of his politics. Has Grant or the Na tional Government anything to do with that? The negroes are “intimi dated'’ by one another in South Car- olina, but not beoauso they are of Af rican descent, but beoauso the intim idators dislike their politicalf'purpos es and propensities, and to ohauge the latter Grant orders tho army into the Strite. If the people of New York do not rebuke this monstrous act, they do not deserve a country! How About New York? The Now York Herald reaches the conclusion that New York’s electoral vote will decide the Presidential contest. The Republicans will have a majority in the country, it thinks, the Democrats in the city, o bits generally been the cast. Will the majority in the city be sufficient to overcome that in the country? "All Mr. Tilden’s chances according to our estimate, are staked upon this possibility. With harmony restored in the city Democracy, and with a local ticket iu nopiination which will consolidate the party and call out a full local vote, we should say that Mr. Tilden’s chances are better than those of Mr. Hayes. A divided Democracy in tlie city, with one side in coalition with the Republicans, would so cripplo the former party and so reduce its vote as to give Mr. Hayes the advantage." The in dications at present arc favorable to a union of the factions. The Independent Vote. Albany Argus.) The results of the elections show that the Independent vote of the country naturally gravieatea to the Democratic party. There was a good deal of that kind of voting in 1874, and the following table shows its strength (the vote of California was in 1875): Dcm. Tnd. Rep. California 61,50# 39.752 31,323 Illinois 136,705 74.602 162.441 Indiana 182,154 18,530 164,903 Massachusetts 87,138 9,807 89,344 Michigan 105,560 8,987 111.619 New Hampshire.... 85.608 2,141 34,143 Orogott 9,713 6,532 9,163 Pennsylvania 227,297 34,491 242,436 Rhode Island S,ICG 8,721 8,368 Totals. 890,810 186,510 858,638 These are all Republican States. The Independent vote oan defeat that party in each of them, and promises to do so. Jane Grey Swisshelm writes from Leipzig: “The double floors, which are universal here, ought to be so with us, for the space between is filled with ashes; so, with thick par tition walls, it is next to impossible to burn a house down. I am told they have no fire engines to Germa ny, and do pot fight fire with water, but with ashes, day, sand, old mats and axes.
