THE DAILY TIMES. JOHN a. MARTIN, • - • Editor. Colambuo O'*.. TUESDAY. DKCiaittKn g M7B. LARGEST CIRCULATION In tho OinllM *<U*** to and Trading at CiMaabwi ' It is stated in Washington that Representative Tarbox, of Massachu setts, is preparing a speech on the sltuatlou, in which he will take the most decided ground for a firm and aggressive Democratic policy, and for the assertion of Governor Til den’s rights at all hazards. The Detroit free'Free* well says that the popular majority which some of the Tilden electors received in Louisiana is equivalent to a ma jority of 40,000 on the popular vote In the Stnte of Ohio. We don’t think even John Sherman would ssy that the popular majority of 40,000 either way in the State of Ohio could be overturned by the Returning Board. And JobnSherman will find it a dif ficult task to convince the people of Ohio that it is just the thing to throw out a popular majority of 9,000 in Louisiana in order that Hayes may receive the eight electoral votes of that State, witheut all of which his chances of the Presidency are worth absolutely nothing. Grant is reported to have qualified his pledge to Hewitt, by saying that what he promised the latter was that he would not recognize any House of Represetatives in South Carolina with less than 63 members. What does he mean by recognition? He keeps his soldiers in the State-house at Columbia to protect the Radical House* with its 68 members, and will not let the Democratic members en ter the hall to outvote them, even though the Democrats now have in their Housed members holding cer tificates of election from the canvass ing board. If this is not “recogni tion” of the Radical House with less than 63 members, what is it? By securing the certificates from two very closo districts in Massachu setts and Missouri, and by theactloD of the canvassing boards in Louisi ana and Florida, the Radicals have almost overcome the Democratic ma jority In the House of Representa tives. The latest summing up gives the Democrats 148, Republicans 142, and New Hampshire yet to elect. Should the Radicals secure the 3 members from New Hampshire, the Democratic majority at the opening of the session will be only 3, and Mr. Stephens’ health is so poor that he may not be able to attend. There is hardly a doubt, however, that if the Democrats secure a working majority of even Bor 3 in the House, they will increase it by turning out two fraud ulently returned Radicals from Lou isiana, and two from Florida. These changes, without more from the other contested districts, would give the Democrats a majority of eleven or twelve. Inquiry has been made of us whether Gen, Grant would not recog nize the Democratic House of Repre sentatives in South Carolina, accord ing to his promise to Mr. Hewitt, now that it has secured 83 members. On this point we find the following in Saturday night’s dispatches of the American Press Association: Grant is being bulldozed. The lead ers watch him night and day, as though they fear he may make a slip und upset calculations. He was on the point a few days ago of recogniz ing Hampton’s Legislature. Don Cameron heard of it. and has had him in groom ever since. He told Hewitt he would recognize the Leg islature that had a constitutional ma jority of 63 votes. When Hampton’s wing got that number, Hewitt re minded him of bis promise. He de nied point blank that he hud so stated, but that he would not recog nize any Legislature that had not 63 votes. So Hewitt, who a few days ago. thought Grant was going to act square, is not so eager to say Grant means to do right. Estimates!—Notwithstanding Gen. Grant’s complaint that the Demo cratic House of Representatives cut down the appropriations so a to crip ple the efficiency ot the public ser vice, it seems that the Departments have now lowered their own esti mates considerably. The House will no doubt trim them a good deal more, and perhaps effect all the saving which it aimed to effect at the last session. The esimates sent in last week are as follows; For Congress, $5,988,250; ExeeutUe proper. $76,4000; Department of State, $1,449,659; Treasury Department, $165,248,389; War Department, $64,251,355; Navy Department, $22,501,968; Interior De partment, $38,806,722; Post Office De- I>artraent, $6,636,657; Department of J ustlce, $4,442,990; Department of Ag riculture, $227,290. Total, $299,611,668. These estimates are $45,000,000 less thau those for 1877, and Congress ap propriated $47,500,000 less than the to tal estimates for that year. -Messrs. E. A. Flewellen, W. A. Lofton and George 8 Jones,Directors of the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, offer the .same for sale or lease, together with the fran chisee, equipments and other property which was sold on the first Tuesday in June, 1875, and bought by the Governor of < leorgta In the name of the (State. —A little child of Mr. O. M. Cavener, of' Nownan, was very badly wounded, a few lays ago, by the explosion of a pistol cart ridge which fell from the mantel and roll ed into the fire. The ball entered the child’s face below the eye, but though tt had not been extracted, it was believed that the ltttle sufferer was doing welt. People should be more careful to keep their cart ridges where no such accident can oecur. b An ancient prophecy regarding se vere weather at this time of the year: “If thene’#de*in>ifevember that will bear a duck, there’ll be nothing after but sludge and muck,” “If the ice bear a mau before Christmas it will not bear* mouse after.*’ • WHAT HATH THIS OUR CAESAR FED UFON THAT HE HATH Blown HO CHEAT? They tell us that "to feed a dog upon gunpowder, makes him sharp.” We d# aolknow what peculiar ac tion on the nerves of the dog nitric carbon and sulphur have to Intensi fy his loathsome tendencies, and ibftko him lmperlalize In the yard of his own kennel; wo know none are monarohs there, that do not wear the collar marks of their own disgrace and bondage; but it Is certain that the burning of villainous gunpowder rouses In man all his dangerous ca nine tendencies. The school of the soldier Is eminently imperial. It stamps Implicit obedience and un questioning subordination, merges the man into an instrument and kills the voluntary agent in his nature, and while It cannot destroy the {in born longing for freedom, it kills the impulse to resist. It crushes the unsatisfied longing for relief Into a sullen obedience, and patient wait ing for the time when power will be in one’s own hand. Soldiers of an empire and soldiers of a republic are the same, after they have once worn the uniform long enough to feel that their living is dependent upon public pay, and, intensely so, are they alike after the soldiers of the republic have once dipped their swords in the blood of civil war. However much they may know, from classic and heroic record, that "resistance to tyrants is piety to God,” they have moved and stopped at the commands “forward” and “halt,” until their own impulses are dead and they, as the trained horse of a squadron, fall into lino and answer bugle’s call without their riders. Search the records of tho nations, and hundreds of generations will not furnish the first instance of a trained soldier, who rose out of the school of arms, delivered a people from bond age and then laid aside his epaulets. Deliverers have arisen from the people, sometimes from the royal and often from the baser born. It takes the training ofH’the citizen” to make the self-denying patriot leader, one who has breathed the fresh air of his native hills and plains, and has only listened to the lowing of herds and the tingle of their homeward bells to tell him tho day is done, whose sleep away from camps is not broken by the morning call of the drum. In the nature of things, in peace, the citizen hates the soldier and the soldier scorns and despises the citi zen. Peace is the soldier’s obliviou, and that on which ho alone rises and makes a name, war, crushes the citi zen. Beneath the soldier’s tread in dustry languishes, social virtue un clasps her golden girdle, and the whole civil compact is detached from conservative and settled forms; the feeble have no protection, the bold and unscrupulous only are safe. It is the din of civil strife upon which “our Ciusar has fed that he hath grown so great.” Petted and pam pered by the praises of a people who blindly have dreamed that crushing by armies the sovereignty of States and spilling the blood of brethren would cement national love; taught by such to think he was the spirit of the victorious army of fratricides; surrounded by the basest and most selfish elements thrown to tho sur face from the filthy depths of the groat civil strife, not yet ended he has heard only a confused murmer for peace, since the guns were si lenced. The steel nails of his mili tary boots and his jingling spurs have kept up such a clatter in the corridors of the White House that his stolid ears have not heard the cries of the honest, sincere heart of the American people for peace. Thieves have stood round and close tohim shouting his praises, kept him smoking if not drunk while they plun dered the treasury and people. Dis honest and ignorant counsellors have wrecked what little of native honesty remained in him and cultivated his bent (to. put it lightly) to prevarica tion. A horrid stael-feeding this stolid ox has had to fatten him for the shambles. Short-lived will be the empire under his hand. His day to make a deathless name he has wasted in mean prevarications over South Carolina and Louisiana. His instincts are low and he is satisfied with the entrails, when the fat thighs of the sacrifice were offered him. But fury urges him. He t cWZgrasp the power if Congress is not equal to its duty. The States, the virtuous people, if they are such, must prepare for more dangerous tyrants than our little deml-god—the great ruffian of the White House. The fitness for an empire is marked among the people. His plain strides in that direction are only the first fruits of an intense but at present small popular senti ment. Wrongs suffered by freemen at the hands of a professed republic, States crushed to provinces by an imperial government that calls itself a republic, have begotten the home ly thought, that a real empire, with out the deception, would be better. Some are willing to give what he is more than willing to take. It is this “that our Cmsar hath fed upon.” If Congress dare preserve Its rights, he may not give the nation much more trouble. His graspings at imperial or dictatorial power may and doubtless will prove vain, or, at least, short lived; for moreover the man is not yet born to strangle the infant Hercules—the free-born child of liberty. It is now their time to take the lead in this land. “Curfew tolls the knell of parting day,” now a sweet and mellow sound on evening’s ear to merry sweet Eng land. But the curfew bells rang mournfully many long and weary years for the crushed yet not con quered Saxon. At Its first peal the Saxon house-bolder nightly drew at William the Conqueror’s oom mand the ashes over the blazing fire upon bis hearth-stone, and retired to bis bed, cursing the tyrant that enforced this nightly social gloom. But the Saxon patience only intensi fied and trained under oppression, a stronger love of liberty, and the bell that put out btefires only called to life tho fiercer firs* of freedom, of which were begotten the slow bat sure growth of the chartered rights of Englishmen. Hence sprang the free spirit of magna chartn and the daring that demanded its re-recognltlon of King John, the source and origin of all we claim of freedom. Curfew talked there for us as well as for our fathers, from sire to son tho birthright comes down to us. The'storm may strain the tim bers of the great ship, its sails will be torn, Us spars soattered, and its tall masts be shivered by the light ulog’s wrath, but the sjiip was not built by unskilled workmen; she will yet ride the storm, sho will right herself. If the curfew bells call us now to smother our freebonfl,res it will not always be thus. Their brazen lips shall bo remoulded in patriot furna ces and made to thunder, on many ensanguined plains the right of the descendents of English people to be free. * THE SAVANNAH FEVER. The News publishes the report of Dr. George H. .Stone, Assistant Sur geon in the Marine Hospital service, upon the origin and characteristics of the late yellow fever epidemic in Savannah, The report is made to the Supervising Surgeon General at Washington. Dr. Stone thinks that the first case was that of a man named Schull, who was carried to the hospital from the American schooner Severs, on the 28th of July. Schull had then been fourteen days in Sa vannah, having arrived on the Severs from New York, perfectly well. These facts show that his sickness must have originated at Savannah. He had a fever of one paroxysm, which was followed by congestion of the lungs. Two days afterwards he was taken with a sudden hemorrhage, and died Immediately. A post mortem exam ination showed his skin yellow, lungs infiltrated and filled with blood, and liver of a complete boxwood color. The next case was that of a boy between ll and 12 years of age, a native of Savannah. The Doctor was called in to see him on the 21st of August, and found tho patient in con vulsions, skin yellow, eyes jaundiced, pupils dilated, temperature 102 de grees, pulse imperceptible at wrist, black vomiting. This boy had not been away from home or the imme diate neighborhood for several months, and had had no visitors ex cept the near neighbors. He was taken sick ou the 18th, and died on the 21st, The suface of his body was yellow as gold, and the liver had the boxwood color which Dr. Stone says appeared to mark all the cases exam ined. From this time the disease rapidly spread. We copy the concluding paragraph of Dr. Stone’s report: This epidemic has been characterized by alt of the symptoms--described above. 1 he atLack commences sometimes with a de cided chill and oftimes-withoout. In the course of the disease we have acute *u praoi’b'tal pain, burning pains of theeyes, pain in the loins, nausea, tenderness over the epigastrium sometimes pains in the knees, niperaturo 101 •' to 105", poise rarely over 120, generally 90, witli down ward tendency us the ease progresses, vomiting green or yellow bile, often only the contents of tiie stomach; anxiety, rest lessness, injected appearance of the eyes, tongue of a bright Vermillion the tip and edge (in some cases the tongue does not show dedcided redness until tho sec ond day-of the fever), congestion of the liv er, spongy gums, with hemor rhage tendency; retention of urino (this is generally a fatal symton), profuse sweats without relief, oppression in one case (which I saw through the courtesy of Dr. Chariton, of this city,) there was total blindness on the second duy of the fever. There have been numerous eases in which the patient has again been prostrated, with apparently a recurrent fever or a de cided relapse, in which there is little or no 'fever, but complete prostration of all the vital functions. Coldness of the extremi ties and coma generally precede death, although I have seen cases where the patient was perfectly conscious one mo ment before dissolution. Black vomit has not been necessarily a fatal symptom, many cases with this symptom having recovered. Vomiting of blood in large quantities has not been uncommon; biooa and black vomit by stool has been observed; dark green anil black urine haß been noted; yellow urine and dark red urine was very common. In fatal cases abundance of albumin was found by me in- the urine; albumin in the urine has not, however, been a constant symptom; the body was always yellow after death, and the liver invariably pre sented the peculiar box-wood color.

OREGON. watts’ statement or THE electoral AFFAIR --A CERTIFIED ACCOUNT PRE PARED DY THE REPUBLICANS. Bax Francisco, Dec. B.—A Portland Press dispatch says thut in au inter view with Watts to-day, he states positively that when Secretary Chad letch slipped the certificates of election through the door into Cro nin's hand the other Electoral can didates presentasked what the sealed envelope contained. Cronin answer ed thut it contained the certificates of election. Watts, Cartwright and Odell asked to see the certificates. Cronin declined to allow this. Their request was made three times by the Electors named, and each time de nied. The Electors then demanded that he should produce the certifi cates. Cronin refused in most em phatic terms, at the same time thrusting the envelope in his breast pockst and buttoning his coat. The Electors aver thut no one in the room but Cronin saw what he claimed were the certificates. 8o far as they had positive or judicial knowledge the envelope contained nothing but blank slips. He olaimed that he was Elector and that he had the certificate and asked permission to act with Cartwright and Odell. These gentlemen did not refuse to recognize him or to act with him. They demanded that he should ex hibit his certificate and show what right he had to a seat in the Electo ral Board. This he refused to do. Cronin himself withdrew and declar ed as the other two gentlemen refus ed to act, there existed two vacancies in the board, which he proceeded to fill, appointing Miller and Parker, two staunch Democrats, and then cast the so-called Electoral ballot of the State. The Republican Electors, after casting the Electoral ballot, prepared a full and complete state ment of what took place in the room and of everything that was said and done, to which each appended his affidavit. This statement has been forwarded, together with the sealed ballot, to the President or the Sen ate. At tho indignation meeting here last night, Gov. Grover was burned in effigy on the public street by a crowd of excited citizens. A CARD.
