THE DAILY TIMES, JOHN n. m.iKTix, • - - UMtor. Oolumbuat On— FItIDAV ■ M * VJ.-HLI K ~ I LARGEST CIRpiTLATION Ik tkK rmnllci Adliurut to ami Trading The Cincinnati Enquirer of Tues day ends every odltorlal, no matter on wbat subject, with the sentence, “Gls* u* a fair oount.” It Is stated that a number of the Northern Democrats seftt to New Orleans in behalf of Hayes have al ready decided that the acts of the Returning Board aro beyond the jurisdiction of the courts or the reach of Congress. A special from Charleston to the New Orleans Democrat says that an error in writing the name of one or the Hayes Electors, Marcy, of South Oaroliha, givos Tllden one vote from that State la any cyfnt. We dp not make any strong calculations upon reports of this kind, because wo think that the fair intent of tbo popular vote ought to and will decide such questions as that. The Legislatures of Temiessee, Louisiana and West Virginia, re cently chosen, will each elect two United States Senators, aDd the Dem ocrfttsJiav,aear|ifU all of ,them. But forj the successful Radical trick of admitting Colorado at theiastsession of Congress, the United Stat es Senate would be exceedingly close after the 4th of March next, and thero could now he no dispute about Tllden’s election. A special from New York to the Cincinnati Enquirer says: “Tllden is in good health, and has rebuked nearly the wliolo of the nowspaper press in New J'orjft-fefr lying inter views wiU*,|jsirn. gFHeijuiy&bo has given roportars hie uunfldeiiifc freely, hut they go off and make him appear to puff their several paiiers. He says he Is elected, and does not think any thing above the Returning Boards will try to cheat him, except In polit ical circles.” 1 " 1 • > Zack’s Oaths. —We have all heard of the iuvptei'ato swearer win... when hisputtipk;lnftn!i §nU6mt of bis, cart down the hlffrHeolnWd trPi ll r a single oath, declaring that ho “couldn’t do justice to the subject.” One would think that the present political condition of this country was one to which a hard swearer couldn’t do justice, and would not make the attempt. But from all ac counts—and there are many—Old Zaek Chandler is not a man to give it up so. He evidently thinks that he can swear and curse to some ef fect in the present emergency, and he isldoing his best. Among the many reported Instances of his profanity in talking of the situation, it is said that he declared in answer to Gen. Farnesworth’s assertion that Tllden had certainly carried Louis iana, “It is ad and lie! Wo don’t propose to surrender,” There is some method, as well as pure cussed ness, in Old Zaoh’s profanity. Be tween his oaths ho interjects expres sions showing ibat his party do not intend to give up, no matter how the people have voted. His position as manager-in-chief of the Radical party in this contest, and as a member of Gen. Grant’s Cabinet at the samo tiro,* give* aignillcanco and impor to hts oaths. He is the linf&tnat connects trie party leaders who are mauaging for Hayes with the Administration, and when he “swears terribly” to give emphasis to his political utterances, he is swearing for the whole party with the Administration to back it. \k tonii. ♦- —. Ultt CMlrulattons aa to tltc IteMilt of the Election lit that Stole. The latest calculations as to the re sult of the vote in the State of New York for Congressmen and members of Assembly indicate that the Demo crats have secured 16 Assemblvmen and the Republicans 5-2, outside of New YOrlt and ’Kings Aunties. The Democrats have secured in Now York and Kings ‘22, and tko Republi cans 8, this would give the Democrats two voteß in the Assembly more than is necessary to pass a bill; in other words, a total of 07 votes to 61 of the Republicans. It is possible this standing of the two parties in the lower house of the Legislature may be somewhat changed, as there are two districts where the voto has not yet been fnllv obtained. They now appear to be Democratic, but oven if they should be Anally shown to have elected Republicans, the Democrats will have, of course, 05 votes, the constitutional majority. In the districts outside of New York and Kings the Democrats have elect ed for Congress B—Republicans 15. The Democrats in New York having elected CCongressmenand 1 in Kings, while the Republicans have secured 1 In Kings and 1 in New York City, the Congressional delegation will stand—l 7 Republicans and 10 Demo crats. Tilden’a majority in tho State will, approximately, be 35,000 when a few missing districts are heard from. Some of the leading Democrats in the interior claim that it will reach as high as 38,000 when nil the returns have come to hand. LASER. From the Hew York World, 14th.) The later and more full returns from the interior and western coun ties of this State make the Demo cratic majority about 33,000. The boards of canvassers in the several counties meet to-day. The official count is as likely to increase as to reduce these figures. It is probable that the actual majority of Tiiden will be between 30,000 and 38,000. It may be above the latter figures, but not probable. Rob inson’s majority will probably ex ceed that of Tiiden’s. It seems to be pretty well settled that the Assembly will be Republi can. The Democrats have lost sev eral members by less than seTenty flve votes. UH'ISI HAWAII. Thar* were doubt, in the Blind* of the tanner.

We see nothing in our early dis patches of yesterday that alters the situation In tho loast. The assur ances of Democratic majorities In Louisiana gnd Florida have been re pented Ikg often that iwo are fully satiafld on t hat. point. What we fflfw await with anxiety Is the count ing or manipulating of the vote by tho canvassing boards, and we sup pose that wo must wait several days yet for that. We regret to have to add that wo do not us yet see the slightest indication that thoso boards will recede from their first purpose to cut down tho vote so ns to reverse the majorities in their respective .States. There is some fair talk by Stough ton, Sheridan and others, reported. But It is the thinnest kind of deceit. Why were such men sent to New Orleans ut all? If an honest count of all tho votes of tho peoplo Is what they arc after, why send men who were Instrumental In effecting or upholding a prior dlslumest count In that State, by which tho State government elected by the peo pio was kept out of power and the rule of tho defeated party continued ? That such men, with the army to back them, w'ure sent to New Orleans for tho purpose of aiding in tho re versal of the decision of tho people, instead of maintaining peace, Is too plain for doubt. There was no dis order or tlirout of disorder before they were sent—it cannot lie pretend ed that thero was. But it was known ut Washington that the Slate author ities of Louisiana and Florida in tended t o make an occasion for excite ment and perhaps resistance, and the troops were sent to support them when tho emergency arose. It was no such emergency as that contemplated by tho constitu tion—au invasion or insurrection on the occurrence of which tho Leg islature or Governor might call on the l’rosiclont for assistance. But there was apa’iu peheme to be car ried out, and all the evidence goes to prove that there was a perfect, under standing between tho Federal arid State authorities ns to the measures and movements to be taken to cousum mate it,. Tne parties engaged niuy talk as they please about; a fair count and respecting tho wishes of the peo ple, and all that, but thero is as yet po indication whatever that they mean to abandon their original de design to give the Electoral votes of Louisiana and Florida to Hayes and Wheeler, whether they obtained a majority of tho popular vote or not. t'OMIKVEI GF.OKUU NEWS. —The Mayor of Macon has offered a re ward of SIOO for the detection of the in oondiary who lias lately fired several houses in that city. —Tho gin-house of Professor Woodiin, of Mercer University, was burned in CJreeno county on Sunday night by an in cendiary.

A dispatch says: His faith in the people and virtue ot Republican institutions is sublime. He will be firm in sustaining the ver dict of the people." HOW* THE*. SB WIIKKI.CB? The XVottld-bo Vice rretlCcnfiUcccril on the Lciil>lh QwcUcn. New VerA lierald.) In hia dispatches to < Dm. Sherman, President Grant plainly indicated the Htato of Louisiana oa the llnal battle ground for tho presidency. It is particularly unfortunate for the Republican party that its success de pends on such a Htato. It is espe cially noteworthy that its vote will be absolutely necessary to elect Wm. A. Wheeler, of New York, Vice Pres ident, who gave his name to the cel ebrated compromise by which the infamously corrupt action of the Louisiana Returning Board In the elections of 1874 was reversed with the approval of the Republican Con gress, Mr. Wheeler’s record in this matter makes it difficult to believe that, he would aocept. a victory at the hands of this Board if thero was any fair doubt of the integrity of its work. Hays President Grant, “No man, worthy of tho office of Presi dent, should be willing to hold it if counted !n or placed thoro by fraud.” This appeals with equal force to the candidate who at tho death or dis ability of the President must take his place. Mr. Wheeler, therefore, Is particularly interested in the re sult. He has placed his knowledge and his condemnation of the fraud ulent) uad corruption of the Louisi ana Returning Board so markedly on record that, he is bound now to second the desire of President, Grant and of all good citizens to have the operations of this Board so scrutin ized that the result shall bo above suspicion. When tho select House committee on Louisiana affairs, of which Mr. Wheeler is a member, returned to Washington the Chairman presented the following preamble and resolu tion to the House, which adopted them: Whereas, both branches of tbo Legislature of Louisiana have re quested the select committee of the House to investigate the circum stances attending tho election and returns thereof in that State for the year 1874; and whereas, said commit tee lias unanimously reported that the Returning Board of that State, in canvassing and compiling said re turns and promulgating the results, wrongfully applied an erroneous rulo of law, by reasons whereof persons were awarded seats in the House of Representatives to which they were nbt entitled, ami persons entitled to seats were deprived of them: Resolved, that it is recommended to the House of Representatives m Louisiana to take immediate steps to remedy said injustice and to place the persons rightfully entitled in their seats. With this resolution were presented majority and minority reports. Mr. Wheeler signed the latter which offered the previous excesses of the white Democrats as palliating, in a measure, the Republican frauds. But this minority report contained the following pregnant passage, which shows that tho present emer gency was foreseen, ft now sounds prophetic: But the evil goes much further. Upon the elections in Louisiana, as in other States, depends tho right to their seats of Senators and Repre sentatives who are to aid in making laws for tho whole country, and tho choice of Presidential Electors, upon whose vote may depend the title of the offico of President of tho United States himself. No party in the United States will like to submit to a result decided by the votes of Elec tors chosen bu such means. Each party will be likely to credit charges of fraud and violence made against ita own side. Thoro Ib, in our judg ment, the greatest danger that these elements may enter into the next na tional election to so great an extent that it may leave tho real expression of the will of the people in doubt. Hero tho danger of tho present sit uation is boldly sketched out. Pres ident Grant’s words appeal to the candidates; the words we have quo ted appreciate the danger to tho na tional peace. This is a crisis of which every honest man of influence before the country should exert, it to the ut most in the interest of fair play. We call upon William A. Wheeler, on his record, to come to the front, and do his sharo of the work of finding an issue to the crisis at onoo honorable and peaceful. Yellow l'ever—Weekly Hepcrt.

Value of Confederate Money.—a case was disposed of in the Circuit Court yesterday, says the Little Rock Herald, in which the so-called Con federate money played quito an im portant part. In November. 1862, E. L. Compere borrowed $250 of tho Se bastian county school fund, giving his note thorofor, heaving ten per cent, interest. The money received was of Confederate issue, and at that time passed current and for its face throughout tho Slate. The pay ment of the noto was postponed uu til the end of the war, and then ten dered in same class of wealth which was received for it, which was of oourso of no value. The case drag ged along through tho intervening years until yesterday, when, by con sent, tho defendant settled the mat ter by paying in United States cur rency ten per cent, of the note, with accrued interest. Virginia. Richmond, Nov. 15.—Official returns front 93 cities and'counties in Virginia show a majority for Tildeu of over 40,000. The remaining counties will increase these figuresabout 2,000.

Jorgenson, in the Fourth District, is the only Republican elected, llis majority will be between 700 and 800.
