THE DAILY TIMES. JOHN H. HAHTIW. - - * Mltar. Coluuil>ua. Ott.. FRIDAY .. .NOVEMBER iO, 176. LARGEST CIRCULATION la tk Cuuutle. A4)M*at la aaS Trail..* at Oala—■. Til AMOSSI.Ve OUESTIO*. Public interest In the Presidential election was more intensely excited yesterday than before, in this city, and no doubt throughout the Union. The evident oloseness of the oontest, and the great doubt about the votes of a few States, were what so greatly Increased the public anxiety. At the time of writing this, we ore still in great doubt about the votes of South Carolina and Florida, and about how Louisiana will be counted. We are disposed to give up all hope of Oregon, Nevada and Wisconsin. We never gave any credence to the special to the New York World, tele graphed to us yesterday, that Illin ois had gone Democratic, nor to the Radical claim that North Carolina was doubtful. Tllden baa 184 Electoral votes sure, counting fortblm all the Southern States except the three above men tioned as in doubt (South Caro lina, Florida and Louisiana), and adding New York, India na, New Jersey and Connecticut. If Tllden carries either South Car olina, Florida or Louisiana, he will be elected. We are in doubt about South Carolina and Florida, but we have no doubt about the popular vote of Louisiana, notwithstanding Oov. Kellogg’s dispatches. The Demo crats have carried the State fairly, by a considerable majority. But, as one of our dispatches from New Or leans significantly says, the Return ing Board decides elections in Louis iana. We can only judge of what the Louisiana Returning Board will do by what It has done in the past, and by indications of what it 1b preparing to do now. The New Orleans Demo crat of Wednesday gives us some in formation as to preparations making there now. It says that a secret meeting of the Radical leaders, Mar shal Pitkin, Packard, Kellogg, Dib ble, Mat Wells and others, was held in the custom-house that morn ing; that General De Trobrland was “in waiting in the building, evidently subject to the orders of the gang. It was thought that he would be sent with troops if necessary to carry out their orders, and assist the Deputy United States Marshals in seizing the city ballot boxes, if this should be finally decided on by Packard and Kellogg. The Radical programme is not yet fully deter mined. It is supposed, however, to be their intention to summon the Re turningfßoard to meet immediately in the Custom House, to seize the ballot boxes as the only sufficient returns, change the figures from the country parishes, and proclaim a Radical majority before all the re turns and the figures have reached the city,” The men mentioned above will be recognized .as those who figured pro minently in the election frauds com mitted in Louisiana two and four years ago. They manufactured votes of the parishes to suit themselves, and gave oertifloates [of election to whom they pleased. Gen. De Trobri and is the samelFederal military offi cer who entered the Representative hall and made hls| soldiers take out of it Democrats regularly and fairly elected. He appears to be obedient now, as then, to the commands of Kellogg, no doubt so instructed from Washington. We are strongly inclined to the opinion that the excitement about this Presidential election, instead of being over, has only fairly com menced. The Highest Monument in the World.—The new cast iron spire of the cathedral at Houen has just been completed. The Semaine Religieuse of that diooese publishes the follow ing particulars relative to the com parative heights of the principal monuments of the globe, as contras ted with this new work. None of the structures raised by the hand of man has made so magnificent or so lofty a pedestal for the Christian Cross. The dome of St. Peters, at Borne, the marvel of modern art, thrown up to the skies by the genius of Bramante and Michael Angelo, has raised the emblem to 452 feet above the ground; Strasburg, the highest cathedral in all France, reaches, with its celebra ted clock tower, 405 feet; Amiens, 439 feet; Chartres, 399 feet; Notre Dame, at Paris, has only 222 feet. The Paris Pantheon, considered one of the boldest edifices, does not exceed 308 feet, the cross included. On another side, the highest pyramid—Cheops— measures 478 feet according to some travelers, and 465 feet according to others; and this latter calculation is the one generally adopted—a height which no known human construction has hitherto exceeded. The pyra mid of Chephrem has 436 feet, that of Mycorenus 177 feet. Among more modern edifices the dome of St. Paul’s, London, has 360 feet, that of Milan 375 feet; the Hotel de Ville, Brussels 352 feet; the Square Tower of Asinelli, Italy, 351 feet; the dome of the Invalldes. Paris, 344 feet. St. Sophia, at Constantinople, only rises to 219 feet; the leaning tower of Pisa to 187 feet; the Arc de Triomphe, Paris, to 141 feet; the Pantheon of Agrlppe to 141 feet; the Observatory of Paris to 88 feet. The dome of the Capitol at Washington, including its statue, reaches 307 feet in height, Trinity Church steeple being 284 feet. From these figures, which are given in round numbers, it will bo seen that the spire of Rouen, which has a height of 492 feet, is the most eleva ted monument in the world. The old one, commenced in 1544 on the plans of Robert Beequet, destroyed by the fire of September 15, 1822, and which was justly considered one of the boldest and most perfect works in existence, had a height of 433 feet; it was therefore 59 feet less than the present spire. —The Augusta Chronicle says that Ex its v.

WASHINGTON ON ELECTION DAY. from Our Rag ular Ooimpoodful.) Washinoton, Nov. 7,1876. The interest in the Western elec tions has become feverishly intense here; every particle of intelligence from Indiana and Ohio is scanned and debated with an earnestness that can be felt only by those who imagine that their bread and butter depend upon the result. Government clerks who have for years received their monthly pay with solar regularity, pray and labor for the Republican candidate, with an instinct of self preservation, and a zeal hotter and more desperate than that of patriot ism. They are to have ten days’ leave of absence, without reduction of pay, in order that they may go home and vote for Hayes and Wheeler. Some of them would doubtless prefer to vote the Democratic ticket, but none will openly exercise this preference; to de so, would be to commit official hari kari. The politico-moral condition of the Government employees in Washing ton, under the national aegis of the bronze Goddess of Liberty, which Jeff Davis placed upon the dome of the Capitol, is somewhat anomalous, and it suggests something that has been called by the terrible name of “intimidation, ’ when exercised by individuals or corporations, in sec tions remote from government de partments and custom offices. But then, we must not make the mistake of judging a powerful, pure, paren tal administration, by the rigid rules which we apply to those rude South ern communities. There are palpa ble differences. The p. p. p. admin istration is laboring, in this hallow ed anniversary, to perpetuate the lovely statu quo of the last eight years—with its dainty manipulators of iron safes, and Freedmen’s bank; with its brilliant speculators in pub lic lands, railroad stocks, crooked spirits, and military posts; and with its able architects of private fortunes and public ruin. While, on the other hand, these semi-civilized Southern communities are trying, by means of the insidious ballot-box, to wrest their homes from the p. p. p. administration, and retain the pit tance that is left. When it is seen that the heads of departments can spare so large a number of their employees, for so long a time, and that too after the "crippling reductions” that have just been made by the “Coafederate Congressone is lost In admiration of the versatility in argument, and the plasticity of logio (lies) Invented by the party of “moral ideas.” Washington is an extremely sensitive political barometer. But a comparatively small portion of the vast number of office holders is here, but that small portion comprises a much larger number than is in any other single locality. From my window I can see the flaring signs of sev en Republican State campaigu clubs.— The office of the Cabinet Minister who is Chairman of the National Republican Campaign Committee, is just across the street Secretary Chandler says every thing is lovely, and the bread and butter myriads find hope and sustenance in his smile. But the complicated political ba rometer, seen from this stand point, is not on the whole as favorable to the Repub licans as they supposed it to be a few weeks ago. The lies about Gov. Tilden’s ineome tux have Bpent their malicious force, and ore recoiling upon their perpe trators. The exaggerated majorities in Maine and Vermont, shows by official count actual Democratic gains, and now comes Governor Hayes' complicity with the American alliance to plague their dreams. C. A. S. CONDENSED CEOMSIA NEW*. —ln Augusta, 2,920 voters have been registered for the city election. —The Jonesboro’ wagon train still runs to Atlanta, notwithstanding the reduction of railroad freights. —Flint river farmers, in Crawford coun ty, are offering to soil corn tills fall, from their cribs, at 25. a bushel. —The extensive gin and machinery house of Perkins, Bro. A Cos., at Hopevllle near Atlanta, was burnt on Sunday. It is believed that the tiro was caused by an in cendiary. —The following were among the sales of real estate made by the sheriff of Rich mond county on Tuesday: Two hundred acres of land In 124th district, live lots, 40 aoreseach, as follows: No. 1, $1.50 per acre; No. 2, $1.25 per acre; No. 3, $1 per acre; No. 4, $1 per acre; No. 6, '52.75 per acre. —Two negroes hunting In tho neighbor hood of Atlanta, commenced a sporting tussel with their guns on Friday, when one of tho pieces was discharged, aad one of the negroes, Fred Smith, received the charge of small shot in his shoulder. The wound is a bad one but probably not fa tal. —One hundred and eighty thousand dollars worth of the old city bonds of Rome have bee redeemed at sixty eenta on the dollar. There are still outstanding about $16,000 worth of the old Issue. The bonds with which the redemption has been made run twenty years, and bear in terest ranging from 4 to 8 per cent' —The Darien Gaxette requests its ex changes to state that Darien needs no more physicians. This notification is ren dered necessary by the foot that letters are received every day from physicians wanting to locate there; and they write because of a late advertisement that phy sicians were scarce in Darien. —The Augusta Chronicle learns that when the duly appointed managers open ed the polls at Waynesboro, the negroes refused,to vote there. Jeese Wimberly then led them off, opened a ballot box In a barn and received the negro votes. About six hundred votes were cast in this way. As a matter of course they, are illegal and will not be counted. —Atlanta OommonxeeaUh: A great many colored men voted the Democratic ticket in this city Tuesday, and two or three de servo particular mention. One escorted the Hon. B. H. Hill to the polls late in the afternoon, and made room through the dense throng for that gentleman to vote. And several other gentlemen were carried triumphantly through the crowd by the colored heroes. POLAR EXPLORATION*. ■ ' ■■ Letter from Ur. Isaac I. Hayes on toe Failure or the Rritlih Arctic Expedi tion— rapt. Nares Evidently Mistaken wltb Bearard to the Permanency or the Ire Barriers- Hasty Conclusions Based on Inadequate Explorations. From the Now York H.rald.] To tne Editor of the Herald; New York, Nov. 2, 1876.-I have just read in the Sun of yesterday an article referring to my letter which you published on Monday last, con cerning the recently returned Brit ish Arctic expedition. I have not a copy of the Herald containing that letter on hand, and as I leave the city almost immediately have not time to obtain ono. The Sun implies that I have doubted the veracity of the distinguished commander of that ex pedition. It was certainly no part of my intention to do so, and there fore I hasten to correot any such pos sible impression that may have aris en in ;he minds of your readers. The impression I desired to convey was. that I did not believe that the ice he discovered formed any per manent barrier lagaiust the ap- S roach to the Foie by way of mlth Sound, and I wrote that I did not believe a word of it. I had no motive or intention to doubt that he encountered, as is stated, ice eigh ty feet thick. Such ice I have seen and traveled over. It is not. howev er, general, and is not and can not be formed by direct freezing; the limit at which ice will form in that man ner being from fifteen to eighteen feet. This exceptionably thick ice is the result of the piling up of table on table under great pressure, and pos sibly, in some cases, by the surface accumulation of snow and its connec tion, as in the glacier upon land, into ice by partial thaw, subsequent freez ing and pressure. Such heavy fields ofice are but rarely more than a few miles in diameter, and .are, like the icebergs, drifted to and fro by the winds and currents. The average thickness of the Arctic ice formed by one winter’s freezing is about five feet, and the greater part of this dis appears in the summer by melting. As to any permanent barrier existing in the quarter visited by Captain Nares, I cannot conceive it possible, since no such barrier exists else where, and I therefore asserted that one year was not enough to prove or disprove anything in relation to the matter, and why the entire expedi tion should so soon have abandoned the field seems to me strange. They had every convenience for a long stay and were in a most favora ble position, and beyond the highest point reached by the Polaris and a long way beyond that touched either by Dr. Kane and myself with sleds. Over the open water discovered by us, and which Dr. Kane had no hes itation in calling the Polar Sea, the expedition sailed without difficulty, to be met ultimately by an Ice barrier which obstructed their progress. But this barrier could not in ray opin ion have been permanent, and I ex pressed the opinion that another year ought to have been given to ex ploring it, as another year would most (certainly change the position of the fields. The ice of Smith Sound is probably the heaviest known, but it is shifting continually, even during the winter. An open season may be followed by a close one, and where ice exists one summer may be entirely free the next. I cannotafter several years’ experience in Smith Sound conceive of such a thing as a prominent ice barrier existing on any water. Even along the land the bulk is continually changing in obedience to the winds. It is this which constitutes the danger and un certainty of Artie navigation. I renew the expression of my regret that the British expedition did not remain another season in the field; and I renew also my belief in the non-existence of any permanent bar rier to tho Polar basin. That a ship cannot with safety attempt the pas sage may be true enough, but that any of the Arctic waters should be permanently and compactly frozen over is against all previous experi ence and against all reasonable anal ogies of physical geography. Sir Edward Parry reached to 82 degrees 45 minutes to find the ice drifting un der him and rapidly going to pieces. This was in tho Spitsbergen Sea, in 1827. However, I nave not the time nor you the space, I presume, to go into a discussion of this matter. My present desire only is to do myself the justice of denying that I ever in tended to doubt for a moment the perfect truthfulness of Capt. Nare’s statements, though I do most cer tainly doubt the accuracy of his judgement and the correctness of his oonclusions. Isaac I. Hayes. An Anecdote of Tchernayeff.— One of Tohernayeff’s soldiers was charged with cuttiug off two fingers in order to render himself unfit for service. The soldier, when taken to headquarters, ad mitted that he had coaxed a comrade to do him the favor. “And were you not ashamed," asked the Qencral “to abandon the field when the Turks are on tho soil of our fatherland ?” “I am quite willing to fight the Turks,” was the reply, "but I wanted to see my home again.” ‘‘Well," remarked the General, “you shall have a long leave of absence. Bay your prayers. You will be shot this moment. The platoon advanced, and the soldier, after making the sign of the cross, stepped in front of the executioners. Suddenly he turned to tbe General 1 and placing in his hand a few pieces of money, said, “To be given to my wife after ” “Go and be her yourself.” The man who loved his wife was pardoned by his country.
