We now find him the chief candidate o n ticket composed exclusively of persons of foreign birtl, a ticket on which no person of Ameriean birth wns permitted a place, Mr. Hrstxo hos truthfully denounced num. bers of his own principal supporters as “reoundrels and thieves™; ho holds them personally in the utmost conterpt, and he knows them to be uumitigated rascals nn- worthy to be trusted with any politieal au- thority ; yet he is the eandidate and political chief of theso rama fellows. In this ostrnor- dinary couduct hie has disgnsted his personal friends, andmore than disgusted nll his former politicnl sssocintes. Ie has, in consorting with this disreputable crowd, ncted treacherously towards his old friends, treacherously towards the party hio abandoned. and treacherously to the great body of the citizens whose interests are to bo betrayed into the hands of this or- ganization, at the hend of which Mr. Hesma isnow found. The new league by which the inmaten of the sluws of the city aro to be placed in authority to tax, and to spend, and toelect, to rule and fo govern, is the work of his honds. ‘The editor of Tnr TrRinvsEhas been grieved at the condnet of Mr, HesiNo, and the more particularly beeause of the abseneeof nny tational motive therefor. Had Mr. Hrmixa been badly invelved in his business, had he been in danger of losing the valuable prop- erty he had seccumulated, there might have ‘been a suggestion that ho was influenced thereby to eeck oflcer and arrest the impending cnlamity. But oven this condition of affairs does not exist, nccording to his own declaration. Ieis above all pecuminry want, sshe declares; beyond all davger of bankruptey ; he is rich, as he shows, ond the legal salary of his office can be of little weight in the scale, The editor of Ine Tpinuwr: is therefore moved to oppose Mr, Hesrva's clection as the candidate of the tax-eaters and criminalelnss- eg in the interest of the genoral public. The alliance is full of peril to the public and to Mr. Hesivo, and safety to both depends on the defeat of tho Irsmva ticket ; tha break- ing up of the disreputable alliance, and the return of the sealy erowd to the slums, anud of Mr. Husiya to political and personnl asso. ciations in which he will take more pride in the declining yenrs of his busy life, than as the Great Mogul of the pimps, gamblers, and criminals of Chieago, AN ERROR CORRECTED.

Tho conntry isruined.

Tho Al lied DTowers suggested the advisabil- ity of developing the rosourcos of the country and of rmsing lonns for thnt purpose, The hint was quickly taken. Rals- ing money by taxation was hard; borrowing wns rasy, In 1851 the Porte got .£3,000,000, ‘Within these twenty years fourteen series of Turkisb bonds have been pnt upon the mar- ket. Their nggregnte is £150,000,000. This is what tho nation, or the despot at the head of it, owes. Ilis predecessors used to chent their own subjeets by debasing the coin and irsning inconvertible paper-curroncy. He has extended his operntions, and chenled Christendom.

Then of 'Tug, Tainuse, through the columns of the Staats-Zwitung, Mr, A, C. HesiNo says ¢ It fa well remembered that, in 1571, Mr. Josger Miipte, personally, in the * Fire-Pronf® Cominittee, urged Mr, JULTAM tOMsEY's nomination for County Treasurer, npou tha very ground that Mr, Rustsey, baving euffercd grest lowses by the fire, needed tho jn* cowe uf that offics fn order to retrieve bis fortune, If that urgumont was sound then, why ehould It be wn- sonnd now? Tho nsme grest fire which cauned AMr, JoLiay Rusiary's losses is also at the botlom of the lonses of A, C. Hestvo, If Mr, Jossru MipILL then considered the County Treavurership a legitimunte poule tice for wounda causcd by the great fire, why should Lis mow deems It an fllegitimato vne ? Mr. Hesixe mokes soveral misstatementsin the foregoing. {lo hss no personal knowl- edge of what he aflirins, as he was not in the United States at the time the * Fire.-Proof . Ticket was mude up and placed bhefore the voters, The facts are these, according to tho record : The city and county ticket of 1871 was produced by the joint netion of, tho Re- publican nnd Democratic Central Committees. There was a general fecling that party vom. inations should not be mado in the face of the awful calamity which lnad befallen the city, ‘The Republican Central Committee lield a meeting in the High-School Tuilding nbout tew or twelve days after the fire to consider tho advisability of calling n party convention. 'They invited n largo number of leading Republicans to meet with them for consultation. The cditor of Tim TrincNe was prescut by invitation at this preliminary meeting, 'The names of no candidates were mentioned or canvassed on that oceasion; nad he was present at no other iecting of the Contral Committee, nor at any mecting of the ** Fire-Proof Committee.” 1t was agreed by the respcetive Central Committees of tho Republican and Demo- cratlo pnrties not to eall party conventious, but to nominate a Union ticket, to be compored Loth of Republicans and Democrats. In the division of the places on this Union Llicket the Democrats claimed the right to designate the eaundidato for City Treasurer, which wos conceded by the Republican Central Commit- teo, and thoy prescated the name of D. A, QGaar for that office ns the choica of the Democracy. The County ‘L'rensurer wns ns- sigoed to the Republicans, and tho Republi- can Central Committeo sclected Mr. O, . Hay, who received 11 votes; Mr, Merzee got 8 votes, and Mr. Rousey 8 votes. ‘The next day, Oct, 25, the same Com- niittee met and reconsidered the nomination of 3r, 1Iax (on the grouud that he waa nl- ready holding n good office), by n vote of 11 syes to 8 noes, und then substituted the uame of Mr. Putr, WansworTr by § votes for him to & for Merzke, and 2 for Juniaw 8. Rouasry, On Oct, 27, tho Ropublican Con- tral Committee held nnother mooting, at which Mr, BRAwNAnn, of Evanston, moved to reconsider thu nomination of Mr, Waps- wonin and substitute that of 3Mr. Rumser, which wos seconded oy Mr. McCuea. Both gentlemnen wade speeches in his bebalf, and represented that the members of tho Board of ‘I'rade and worchants gonerally dusived his nominntion. The motlou prevailed by 9 aycs to ¢ nocs, nnd Mr. Russey's name was placed on the Union ticket for County T'rensurer, At none of theso meatings wus the editor of Tuz "lmiBuny preaent, and bo had neithor hend nor part in the several sclections, ro. considerstions, or substitutions' of' names, and had nothing to do with making any offico ** a poultice for wouuds caused by the fire,” Hence the assertion made by Mr. Hesiwg, that “r. Mrpin persoually in tho Fire Proof Committeo urged Mr, Juniay Ruw. $EY's nowination for County ‘Trensurer upon the very ground that Mr R., Laving suf. fored great losses by the fire, needed tho in. came tho crash. 'The Ottoman securities fell headlong at the announcement that half the interest “was to bo pnid in new bonds. In fact, thoy have not slopped going down yet. They are apparently on their way fo tho bot- tom of n bottomless pit.

The Jeffersoninn Club Lns laid down its tronblod, waaried lifo. It yesterdny tied up its name and its constitution in a hand- kerchief and deposited them with tho bar- keeperat ““The Store,” and, taking a drink, died. As an inodorous body it will exist no more. Even Cuariey Reep will not claim for it the promise of n resurrection nceording to the Greek version, The organization songht to lig respectable, but seetos to have had no constituency, It was head without body, It liad a short lifo, Taking the name of the Snge of Mouticello, it proposed to reorganize the Democratic party on the Jeffersonian principle of hon- enty, fidelity, and eapacity in all ofticelolders, oud forthwith discovered that, in reorganiz- | ing the Democratioc party, it had left the Democratic porty out. It was a sick- ly organization from the beginning. Its aims wero sbove the comprehension of thoso it was intended the Club should gov. crn, It struggled along for a while, and yes- terday was snuffed ont of existence by the Hrsiva Foreign Know-Nothing allianeo, Professing to discard (ho corruptions of {he primary meeting, tho Jeflerroniaus ap- pointed picked delegates to the Convention, and the picked Convention, turning its back upon Jrrrensos and JAcksoy, voted to sup- port Mr, Hesixo and the other uominees of tho mob, nnd then the Jeffursonians expired. There may bo some talk hereafter of re- viving the Club, but the thing cannot bo dis- turbed withont stinking. Tt haa forfeited publio respect and public confidence. Jt hns lost even its own claim to respectability, Tt has proven its own weakness and corruptia bility, It has shown how faiut tho line which sopnrates the weak mon from tho knave, and how powerless the fow who striva ta Lo honest when opposed by the soductions of public plunder. After o brief, inglorious struggle, the Jel- fersonians havo . cessed to exist, They had not the courags nor tho backbone to stand o single hour aguinst tho demands of Misek MeDosxarp and bin crowd.

The Board of Counly Commissioners has confessed its purposo to defrand the people of thia city ind county nt tho fortheoming election by refusing to allow tho Republicans representation at the polls. Their refusal is & deliberato and wablushing announcement of their intention to stuff the ballot-boxes and eloot the Dovil-Fish ticket by substituting stulfed boxes for tho real ones, by tho uso of repenters, aud by counting up mnjorities suf- ficient to overcome the mnjorities of the Ro- publican wards and towns. ‘The action of this corrupt Ring virtually disfranchises tho peoplo of Chicngo. Tt provents tha Repub- licans from counting tho vote except in a few Republican wards, Tt offera a preminm to the bummers and seallawags for dishonesty and ‘illogal voting by giving them full aweep. It opens the woy for them to tramplo upon one of the most ime portant rights of citlzenship with fho most perfect impunity, The members of the Ring in the County Board who have voted for this inlquity should be remembered, They should bo Leld sternly to account. ‘Thero ara somo of them of whom tho poopls expected botter things, Mr, Russers, who' represents an overwlielmingly - Republican constituenoy, has voted against the interests of that constituoncy, Mr. Losesoan has heretofore borue a good ruputation as & fair- minded, honest wan, bLut ho has cast in his Tot with this corrupt Ring, and Laa votod to disfranchiss mwore thay half of the citizens of Chfcago, Mr. 0. 0, P, Houpex has been very vigorous herclofore in denouncing the corruptions of tho County Ning, He Las attecked them upon every ocea. sion, and mnnifested & righteous in. dignation in his attacks, Was all this only WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER - 27, 1875. to compel this Ring to open and lot him in?

Gen, Lizn reglied that many of the box 10 the bands of tho Judges Lefora ho catxe ete, ‘The communication wan fnally referred to tho Pab- e Service Committee, with iustructions to nct at onca, This means, of course, that the new ballot- boxes will be ordered, snd it forecasts n strong likelihood that not twenty-four but forty-eight or one lundred boxes will bo pro- vided, and that there will be duplicates of the hoxes used in cerlain wards, It is be. lieved that it was by menns of duplication that somo of the stufling in the chartor elee- tion was accomplished, That is, thore were exnct connterfeits of the boxes nsed al some of tho polls; the counterfeits wero filled with ballots for the charter in enormous excess over those ngainst the chartor, and also over the actual number of vates cast; the counter- feit Loxes were then substituted for the gonttine boxes which contained tho vote ns actunlly cast, It is known that two of the hallot-boxes had been stolen, and they were evidently stolen to serve ns counterfeits, There conld have been no other purposo for stenling theny, and the result of the charter clection justifies the suyposition that they were so used, Now, what regsonable purpose is there in demanding new ballot-boxes at this time? The full number neoded is not asked for, so it in ovidently not the intontion to substitute new batlot-boxes all around in arder to aveid the changing of counterfeits for'the gennine. Only twenty-four nro asked for, Why does not the County Clerk wend to the City Clerk to whom ho loaned twenty boxes for the charter election, and which are supposed to ba locked up in the vaults of the City Clerk’a office? It is the duty of the City Clerk to return the boxes ho borrowed, and we pro- sumo he is prepared to do so on demand. After the refusal of the County.Board to appoint one Republican representative on each’ Election Bonrd, such naction ns that taken with reforence to the new and additional ballot-boxes must be regarded with the groat. est suspicion, Mr. Crovon evidently had renson to beliove that the proposition con- cealed somo Taseality by the close questioning to which ho subjected it. We do not suppose thero is anything to provent the scheme Leo- ing earricd out.

The visit of the Emperor Wixitax of Ger- many to King Vieror Euanven of Italy is an ovent of more than elight significance. German Emperors have often before in old times visited Italian soil, but they have come armed, have marked their journey by burn- ing towny, ravaged flelds, and murdered men, and have left behind them bitter resentment and enduring wounds. Their flags have waved over blood-stained batile-flelds, 'The baunors which were displayed during this lnst visit wero hung out in glad greoting of a friend. The Emporor met his Royal host in the very city—Mlilan—which Banpanossa, another German Emporor, once razed to the ground, leaving only o single church to mark the site whero Milan had been. Ho took nearly tho same routo to Italy ns that pursued by auother Gor. man leader, ArTiza, Who returned the earlier visits of Jurnwea Crsan to the **cloacina gentium," and cut o Lroad swath of destruc- tion through thefortilo Valley of the Po andall thowaytoRome, ItwasinMilan that the Ger- man Enperors were ence crowned with the iron crown of Lombardy, Milan was their point dappui in their Italisn campaigns, And now this city is tho host of tho Emperor of anew Germany and the Kingof a new Italy. Thirty years ago, Italy was passionnte. Iy chanting the fomous rofrain, ** Non vogli- am Tedeseli"—* Wo will not have the Ger- wnns.” But Ggrmany then meant Austria. Now it means Prussin, the Prugais which con- «quored AustrinatSadowaand gave Venico toIt- aly, which conqueredat Bedan and gave Rome to Italy, and which hos since conquered, in lit- orature, sclonce, nud theology, every Ital- fan student outsilo of the palo of the priesthood. The old feeling of hate and drend is dead. Thero ia oven a certain senti. mental tie botween the two countries. Rut the tio ia not yet strong. Tho disclosurcs of La Manuozua's book of lnst year show how near Italy came to taking the side of Franco in the very war in which the French defoat made Vicror Esaxven King of all Italy, frow the Alps to the Adriatic, with Rome for his capital city. German philosophy and the- ology rulo suprame ou Itallan soil, or rather in Italian minds, but the old vepugnance be- tween the Latin and the Teuton canuot be obliterated in a day or ageneration. The visit of the Emperor to the King formally sets the seal on tho compact of good will betweon the two nations. There lave been balls, and illuminations, and hunting partiep, and reviews of (e armny,—that army vh‘og bur- deng Italy with an iucreasing annual deficit, and which would be useless if vows of good will betwecu monarchs meant anything. But they do not. Josera of Austrin and Vieron of Italy have kissed each other in that Vonice for which they fought for scventoen years. They have publioly testified to their deep love for each other. But if Joseru could catel Vicron napping and win back Venice, would his love prevent?
