THE DAILY TIMES. JOHN If. MARTIN, - - - Eltltr. Columbuii. <*•.. TUESDAY. ..VOYEMHKU 21. ■ 1.1 ■ 11 LARGEST CIRCULATION lu b CuMtle. AAfueeal io and Trartln* nt t'olumtm.. Thk Methodist preachers of Balti more held a meet 1 lift the other day, and discussed the propriety of nb srainlng from the use of tobacco. Ik the city election In Chatta nooga, Thursday, the Republicans elected their candidate for Mayor, Marshal and six Aldermen. ■'' I ♦ Work in Fannin county on the Marietta and Murphy Railroad is progressing finely. The line through the county Is more than half graded. Be. Jobs Fulton, formerly reel or of the Episcopal Church of this city, more recently of Mobile, and last of Grace Church, New York, has been called to Bt. Paul’s Church, Milwau kee, with a salary of $5,000. The London Financier says that England will take possession of and defend Constantinople if Russia should Invade Turkey. She will withdraw as soon as a neutral Hfato is formed on the Bosphorus. A dispatch of the 17th Inst, from Washington says: Miss Leila Morse, daughter of the late Prof. Morse, be fore sailing for Europe yesterday, gave a positive denial to a current rumor of her,'engagement to Gov. Tllden. The New York Express steadily as serts that Tllden . has been elected and shall bo inaugurated; that the decision of the people shall not be reversed by the Senate. It calls at tention to the fact that the House Is a co-ordinate branch and holds the purse and sinews of war. Gfohgia.— I The Atlanta Constitution says that with nine counties to hear from Tllden has received 131,584, und Hayes 46,775 votes, showing a ma jority of 74,808. The remaining nine counties will iuerease the majority to over 80,000. The delinquent coun ties are Bartow Charlton, Forsyth, Gilmer, Pickens, Tatnall, Twiggs, Whitfield und Jefferson. The first count of the votes lu South Carolina showed a majority of 1,114 for Hampton for Governor; that Hayne, Rep., is elected Secretary of State by 237 majority; Elliot, Rep., Attorney General, by seven votes; Hagood, Democrat, Comptroller General, by 256 majority; Thomp son, Democrat, Superintendent of Education, by 442 majority; Kenne dy, Rop., by 181 majority, and Cardo -7.0, Rep., by 208 majority. We are pleased to see the call of John G. Thompson for a meeting of the Democratic Central Committee of Ohio to take Into consideration the present political emergency. It is time that some commanding expres sion was given as to the resolution of the Democrats of the North in a tnroatened crisis, and it is eminently lit, that the Democrats of Ohio, who have made such a gallant light under adverse circumstances, should take the initiatory step. Theke seems to be point in Finch back’s declaration that if the action of the Kellogg returning board of Louisana in "doctoring” the returns is recognized as legal, he (Pinch) must get Ids seat in the Senate. It was only because of the frauds of the same returning board in making up the Legislature which elected Pinch, that the Senate rejected him. We believe that he is one of the Hayes liectors in Louisiana: and if so, be can, notwithstanding his color, force his own admission by refusing to vote for Hayes unless his party will agree to admit him as Senator. There seems to be some misappre hension about the recent count of the vote in South Carolina. It ap pears that the board of canvassers, in obedience of the order of tbe Su preme Court, first counted the vote as actually returned, not intending that this count should be final. The canvassing of the returns has yet to be done. We are informed that thero are “numerous clerical errors,” and that the Democrats have made their objections to a number of the returns on the ground of irregularities, frauds, &c. While wo do not enter tain any lively hope that any correc tions will be made that will give a majority to any of the Tilden Elec tors, we hope that such exposures will be made as will help tho Demo cratic party in its appeal to Congress and the country against the wrong committed by Radical officials in the South. The New York Herald, of the l7tk inst., says: “lu Louisiana the North ern Republicans have, in a reply of some length, refused to coufer with the Northern Democrats assembled at New Orleaus. The Northern pub lic will regret this step, for much was expected from such a conference of leading men of both parties. But of the Republicans who sign the refusal to confer only one or two are men of such mark and independent charac ter as to make their consent, or even their presence in New Orleans, of im iwrtance. We notice among the signers a considerable number of Ohio politicians—friends of Governor Hayes. Their address refers the Democrats to the strict letter of the Louisiana law, and omits to say any thing of the bad character of the men who are to interpret and execute a confessedly bad law in their own interest. W'e should be sorry to be lieve this represented the opinions of Governor Hayes.” —The storyjabout the attempt to steal the bones of Abraham Lincoln looks rath er thin. Pe’rhaps funds are wanted to eompletethe monument. THK POLITICAL HITI ATIOV We have culled tho opinions of several loading presses of the North upon tho quostion (tho discussion of which can hardly be longer avoided) what course will tho Democratic party puraue lu the event of tho “counting In’’ of Hayes and Wheeler by fraud backed by force. It is fair to say that the views which we pre sent are (with the exception of the New York Herald's ) those of tho Northern papers which arc most out spoken in declaring that the country should not submit to suoh a wrong. Many other Democratic or independ ent jiapers (notably tho Now York World among them) are not so positive in their utterances. We regret this, tor if the party which has rightfully won this Presidential fight means to stand up for its rights, the sooner It makes that determination known tho better and more effective. It would be better if it were made known before the Anal action of the canvassing boards. Of course the Mouth has no power in this matter. It has contributed its nearly or quite solid vote to elect Tilden aud HAn dricks, and can now do no more. It Is apparent that the whole Radi cal party of the country is nearly “solid” on the position that if Hayes is declared elected according to the usual forms, the country must sub mit to It, right or wrong. It Is, per haps, not quite so pronounced in maintaining the right of the State returning boards to manipulate the returns so as to give Louisiana and Florida to Hayes though Tilden is found to have received a majority of the jiopular vote. But the anticipation of such a proceeding does not seem to disconcert them, and we tnay as well conclude that after the outrage is committed they will stand by it as final and Irreversible. Nowls the time to prevent such an outrage, if they wish to prevent it, and their failure to denounce it at the effective time must, be taken as presumptive evi dence that they will not makeoppo tition to it at any time until opposi tion may be too late. The programme of the Radical party contemplates that all the Irregularities shall be commit ted by tho State officials, and that they will throw the responsibility of irregularity thereafter upon the Democrats. Thoy are trying to tlx up tho returns of the Electoral votes in suoh a manner that tho Democrats in Congress must, appear to be the revolutionary party In cor recting a wrong committed in the States. If, therefore, the Radical conspiracy for giving the votes of Louisiana and Florida for Hayes should be carried out, tho Domocrots in Congress must then find out some way in which they can arrest it by parliamentary proceeding, or they will have to take the responsibility of honest revolutionary resistance to dishonest usurpation begun in a rev olutionary manner and claiming reg ularity only in its consummating processes.

John Sherman, Stanley Matthews, J. A. Garfield, W. D. Kel ley, John A. Kassmi, E. W. Stough ton, C. Irwin Ditry, Eugene Hale, M. Quay, Will 8. Cutnback, E. F. Noyes, Job E. Stevenson, John Cobourn, Lew Wallace. John Tuttle, M. A. Mc- Grow, J. A. Chapman, W. K. Smith, Abner Taylor, 8. Haven, J. M. Beards ley, C. l'arwell, Courtlandt Barker, Sidney Clark, J. C. Wilson : Gentlemen—We are in receipt of your letter of the 14t.h lost., in which you inform us of your determination not to confer with us for the purpose of exerting such influence as we may possess in behalf of such a canvass of the votes actually east at the elec tion in Louisiana, as by its fairness and impartiality shall command the acquiescence and respect of all Par ties. Wo sincerely regret this failure of our attempt to secure the cooper ation of the citizens from other States in furtherance of the purpose which, as wo supposed, had brought them hither at this juncture. We regret it all the more beeauso your refusal to confer and co-operate with us ap pears to be based upon a serious mis apprehension of tho language no less than the spirit of our communication. It can hardly have escaped your notice that our statement of the re sult to be attained by the co-operative action, which we sought to bring about, was a simple production of the language of President Grant, at whose request, we understand, you are here. In his recent order to Gen. Sherman, that language was deliberately used no doubt in view of the fact about which, as we conceive, there can bo no dispute, thnttho first and most essential prerequsite to an honest and just declaration of the results of the recent election in Lou isiana is a fair and impartial canvass of the votes actually east. It seems to U 9 that you do the President great injustice in supposing that, in speak ing of the “votes actually cast,” he meant to include votes illegally east, as you certainly do us injustice by the imputation of a desire to insist upon such a narrow and vicious in terpretation. In our judgement the expression “votes actually cast” of necessity designates votes legally cast, and, as a consequence, of such votes only did we desire to secure a fair and impartial canvass. We beg leave to say, therefore, that you are mistaken in the belief that we sought unduly to narrow the basis on which we invited your co-operative action, and you are do less in error in at tributing to us a purpose to interfere with the legal authorities of tho State in the discharge of their duties, to claim rights and to arrogate to ourselves powers which wo do not possess. In writing our letter we were fully aware that both the or ganization and action, whether judi cial or ministerial, of the Returning Board of Louisiana were beyond any authoritative control from without, and that it would bo the height of ar rogance and folly to attempt to alter the laws of a State of which we are not citizens, or to obtrude our inter pretation of those laws upon those whoso duty it is to administer them, but we had supposed, nevertheless, that there was an influence which might be rightfully excited even by citizens of this republic who are strangers in this State, and we had taken it for granted that your pres ence here, in response to the sugges tion of the President, was a recogni tion of this fact. We had supi>osed that it was not improper for us to remind the au thorities of this State, by our mere presence at least, that there are cer tain rules of fairness and justice which underlie .all constitutions and laws, and upon whose observance must depend the aequiesence of the people of all parties in the result of the Louisiana election—rules such as these: That no one ought to be judge in his case; that the decision of any contest ought not to depend upon the mere arbitrament of one of the parties thereto; that before such a decision is made both parties ought to be fully and fairly heard ; that all questions of law ought be decided in conformity with its established gen eral principles, and all questions in fact upon evidence duly presented and weighed under the rules which are of universal recognition in all the States of the Union ; that the trial of all causes involving public interests at least ought to be public, and that, all the proceedings resorted to for tho purpose of determining tho issues in the present electoral contest ought by their manifest impartiality to disarm the suspicion that the forms of law had been perverted into instruments for the violation of its spirit. In this connection we may be permitted to observe, that while undoubtedly, as you say, a sedulous inculation and cultivation of thehub its of obedience to the forms of law is vital to the preservation of consti tutional liberty.it is no less impor tant that a refusal to yield such obe dience be not provoked by using these forms as a means for subverting the very ends for which they were designed. Without undertaking to question the sinoerity of the belief, which you are at paius to express, that you know of no reason to doubt that the Louisiana Returning Board will make a perfectly honest and just de claration of the results of the recent election in Louisiana, we deem it not improper to remind you that the presence in this city of so many citi zens from all parts of the Union at this moment seems to be evidence of a widely prevalent distrust of the action of this board, and that suck distrust has this foundation at least, that the constitution of the board has not been changed since its re turns were set aside by a Congres sional committee, of which the Re publican candidate for the Vice Pres idency was a member; and this dis trust is not unnatural in view of the Tact, that, as we understand, one of the members of the Returning Board was a candidate for an office at the recent election, and another tho holder of an office of profit and trust by appointment of the present Exeutivo of the National Govern ment. while all the members of the Board are believed to be in affiliation with but one of tho parties to the present political contest. In view of ail this, it is hardly necessary to add that the terms of our letter were not designed to prejudge the question whether the functions of the Return ing Board were judicial or ministeri al, or both ; but simply to invite you to see, with us, that whatever may be the character of these functions, they are openly, fairly, and honestly dischargged; and while we thus re frained from any attempt at stating or construing the laws of Louisiana, we deemed it equally irrelevant to the subject of our correspondence with you to allude to the duties de volving upon officers other than those constituting the Louisiana Re turning Board, under the laws and Constitution of the United States. Whether, as you observe by way of illustration, under the Constitution the President of the Senate both counts and declares the votes of the Electors of the several States, his du tv being purely ministerial and not subject to the control of Congress, or, us has been the praotico for more than eighty years—a practio inaugu rated by men, some of whom have been among the framers of the Con stitution—tne votes are to bo counted nnder the direction and control of the House of Representatives and Senate, is a question, upon the dis cussion of whioh wo deem It no part of our duty to enter. In conclusion, permit us to say, that notwithstanding your refusal to co-operate, we still cherish the hope that the Returning Board, warned by history of the past aud conscious that Its actions are being observed by the whole nation, will discharge its del icate duty with such clrcusmpection, fairness and impartiality as will give sat isfaction to the American people. To this end we will continue to labor. Should a different result follow the uction of the Board-, we siiull have tiie satisfaction of knowing that, while vou have taken the reponsibil ity of declining to Hot with us, we have done all in our power to avert tho consequences wluoh may follow.
