The friends of Gen. Hunupor will do him a serions injustice, and work great injury to the Republican party in this State, if thoy follow tho counsel of some indiscroot per- sons and ran him as an indopendent candi- date. Inthis way alone ‘can Farsswortx, tho Domocratio candidate, be elected; and not only this, but the members of the State Legislatare will likewise be jeopardizod, and the intorests of tho party injured more or less in tho Btate issue. Weo have understood that Gen. Hurunur himsolf had become personally roconciled to the nomination of Mr, LaTaror, ns he certainly ought to be. If this is so, he will not merely discourago the presont movoment by somo of his over-zealous friends, but hd will peremptorily refuse to bo an independent candidate, and thus becoma the agent for ro- turning a Democratio Congressman from tho old Republican District which he himself has represented in Congress for two terms. Wo trust there is no foundation for the report, and that it will prove to be a schome devised 1n the interest of Fanxewontn which Gen. Hurrsur will promptly repudiate. OHIO AND INDIANA. There haa never been in the history of the coutitry a more animated clection campaign than that which is now in progress in Indi- ana, and which will be kept up until the doy of the election, Tuesday, Oct. 10. Both par- ties are displaying the utmost activity, and it will bo strange indeed if there be a month honce any man in the State who has not had liberal opportunitics to become informed upon the political questions of the day. Over the line, in Ohio, the campaign is compnratively tamo, This is duo to the fact that the result in that State has been under stood to bo conceded by tho Democrats, who, therefore, apparently work with less onthu- sinam, espocinlly when the Presidential can- didate is held in general aversion. Woere it not for the Stato election and the local can- didates, the Democrats of Ohio would prac- tically nbandon the canvass. After October they will have nothing to vota for but Tir. pen, and this duty will then probably be omitted by thousands. The Republicans boing sure of vietory not only in Ootobor but in Novembor, feel all the pesce of ascer- tained triumph, aud are not making the efforts that wero considered necessary in tho Haves-AnueN struggle last year, The campaign in Olio was formally opened Avg. 12 by a dozen mectings at' ns many points in the State. Since then, oxcept the speoches of Scirunz and one or two others, the worlk has been earried on by caundidates and other Olio speakers. Within a fow dnys, Gon. Ganrrzup and Senator Suznuan have taken the stump, and Bop Ixcensorwn spoke at Co- lumbus on Saturday night, On the 23d Mr, Brame will deliver the first of o sories of sovon specches at Warron, and tho others at Cincinnati, Xenia, Toledo, Norwalk, Cleve- land, ond Painesville, Ex-Postmastor-Gen- eral Jeweny will malke three specches, and Senator EpMuxps, of Vermont, will begin on tho 21st and make oight speechies, A half- dozen more or loas distinguished mon from Penusylvania will each give ton days and as many speechos to Ohio; Kassox of Iowa, Treo Heogrn of linois, and soveral others will go into Ohio this weck. In the mean- timo, the whole body of Republican orators living in Ohio will take the stump, aud the last two weeks of the campaiga will be of the most active and enthusiastio character. It will be noticed that Braive, Epatunps, Kasson, INoessonr, and tho others close thoir ungagements in Olio by tho 80th of Boptember, 'Thoy then nll move into Indi- anas, wheroe, in addition to Benator Monton and the Indiamans, thoy will join Senators Loaan and Ooresny, Gen. Husinur, Gov, 1arTnaner of Pennsylvania, Gove, Kizgwoon and Srons of Town, Gon, Jor Hawrey of Conneeticut, and a host of others, and during the uoxt ton days Indiana will be in a blaze by day and by night. It must not be supposed that tho Republicans are to have all this busi- ness to themsclves. The Confederato Denocracy will be ns industrious. With them the battle in Indiana iu ono of lifo or death, Defeat in Indiana will end the cam- paigu on their sidoall ovor the North., If they lose Indiana, then there will bo a * Sol- id North " for Haves sund Wurees, ‘With such a atake it is not likely that the Confed. erates will lot Indiana be lost, cost what it may, even if it tewporarily depopulate the river counties of friendly Ken. tucky to carry tho B8tate, Tho Re. publicans of Indisna aro makiug & mag- nificont fight, contesting overy inch of ground, but they lack the Democratic in. centive to disroputable and dishonest mesus, that the Btate is absolutely easential to na- tional success. 'I'his is the inspiration of the Democrata; in their desperation, -they will leave nothixg undone, no mattor how dishonest, to save Ilzxpnicks from disgrace, ot least until the November clection.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1876, Groonbacks at the New York Gold Ex- shangoe yesterday closed at 01, e — Our market reports from Now York City snnounce a nearly unpracedented activity in the dry-goods trade, from which a very hope- ful horoscope of the future business pros- pocts of the country is cnat. An ordor has boen issued in Constantinople for o cessation of hostilities for ten days. In that time the conditions of peace may be nogotinted, or if not, Servin will havo had & much-needod breathing spell, and when the fighting is resumed it is likely to be upon o basis that will settlo the fate of the Turks in Europa, The small ond of Oroox'scampaign against the hostile Sioux has boen reached. His re- tarning column arrived at Custer City on the 16th, greatly to the delight of the Black Hills peoplo, who had begun to foel the nead of military society, There will be no more expeditions this year in search of Indians hundreds of miles away. At on immense meeting held in London Yestorday resolutions were adopted denounc- ing tho policy adopted by England in dealing with the Easternquostion. It was the almost unanimous sense of the gathering that Par- tinment should be consulted in the present srisin, and the immedinteconvocation of that body was strongly urged. The storm of Bunday proves to have been vxtremely violont and destructive in tho Enstern, Middle, and Southeastern Btates. iinued throughont Monday, swolling the mountain streams to the eastward to tho di- mensions of formidable torrents, aud excit- titing apprelionsion of serious dnmage and lisastor yot to com Epxusp Stonen JANES, 8 m;hop of the yeaterday in New York City, which has béon his place of residence for many years.

Tho complainant sceks to sot nside a loreclosure-sale of soma of his property, but the question raised applies to all corporn- tions, and an adverso decision would create great oxcitoment, sud bring to a sndden stop the looning of any money in this city by torporations on renl-cstate socurity. — The Bouth Side Gas Company will Lere- after furnish gas for tho purposo of streot- lighting and for use in public buildings at the moderate and reasonable prico of $1.50 per 1,000 cubio feet. This was tho price asmod by the Common Council as tho highest that would be paid, and the Bouth Side Com. ‘pony has hind tho good sense to perceive that ‘ho Council was in enrnest. The West Sido Company, however, still persists in its re- fusal to nccept the inevitablo; still rofuses to believe that the city will do what so large o proportion of the citizens of tho West Division bave done already—snbstitute oil for gos unless tho prico of the latter is re- duced. This is what it will come to, and Mr. Bruuxas will do woll to * taks a tumble” forthwith, ——e Acting upon the opinion of the Corpora- Yion Counsel, thata two.thirds voto is not necessary to abolish the Board of Pablic Works, the Common Council has once more passed tho ordinance having that end in view.

Not having been ecreated under the present chartor, a majorily of all the Aldermen elected was sufficiont to pnsa the ordinance, aud the mistakon ruling to the contrary of the presiding ofticer of the Conn- cil something over a month ago did not pre- vent the operation of the ordinauce at that time.

SEPTEMBER 19, 1876. weakness is, It has been thoronghly im. pressed on the disgusted soft-money men of the party that at tho October election they do not vote for Tirpen, but voto only for Ohio Demoerats who are candidates for Con- greas and for State officors, All of theso candidates are running on tho Ohlio ond not on the Tiorx platform, and hence every posaible effort s making to have a full Democratic vote polled in Ootober, leaving the contest in Novembor to take cave of itself, It is urged upon theso people, also, that there is a prospect of suc- cesa; that there is a largo defection of Re- publican Germans; that the temperanco party will draw largely from the Republican party ; and that to olect tho Domocratio Btate tickot now on the Ohio platform will be a glorious vindication of Old Biun Avx and soft monay, and n robuke to both Tinpexrand Hayes. ‘The hard-monoy Democrats in Ohio are all united for Tmpex, and both wings will vote solidly for tho Btate ticket in Octo- ber. It will not be safe, therefore, to count upon any serious indifference or noglect on tho part of the Domocrats in the matter of voting, and any Republican who abatains from voling under an idea that the Domo- crats intend to let the clection go by default, and that the Republican majority is too great to bo in any danger of being overcome, will make n and mistake. Ohio, upon a full vote by both sides, can, elect tho Republican State ticket in Oatober by 20,000 majority, If the mnjority in the State bo less, the falling-off will measure tho over-confidence of the Re- publicans, and their consequent noglect to vote, THE TURCO-SERVIAN MEDIATION, From a purely military point of view, tho conlict between Turkpy and Servia coases to bave any interest. The Turks have con- quered the Cliristians and have thoreby ndded to their military reputation. At the same time they have brought down upon them- aelves the scorn and detestation of all civil- ized mankind as the most flendish and ntro- cious bulehiers the world Las ever known. The sottlement of terms of peace by the Great Powers is all that now remains of in- terest to the world, What that settlement may be, noone can foretoll. The terms of penco rest between Russia and England, and botween thom also rests that old bone of contontion—tho Eastern Question. If they arrive ot any mutually satisfactory decision, 1t must be made with referonco to tho re- spectiva policies of the two nations on that question, A few years ago it would not have been difficult to forecast the result, na England was then the stanch friend of Tar- key, but since that time the Turks lave alicnated their bost friends,—first, by utterly repudinting thoir debts, principal and in- terest, and second, by their remorscless and inhuman cruelty to the helpless women and children of Bulgarin The English Gov- ernment has been forced to act with tho Great Powers. Anything looking like a champlonship of the Turkish causs would overthrow the Tory partyin nn instant and place the Liberals in the ascendoncy. The reader who has followed the course of events since tho docisive battlo of Alexinatz will lavo noticed that the Tuarks have already been compelled to withdraw their doflant announcement that they wonld only listen to a proposition for peace from the Princo Mmay, and bence reluctantly granted an armistice, owing to English rather than Russian prossure. However bumiliating it may be to the new Sultan to have to arrost his trinmphant progress and rest upon his arms while the Powers arrango torms of peace, ho has had to comply, upon the noti- fication of England that unless he did so he would bo left to the mercy of Russia, What will bo the outcome of the medin- tion of the Great Powers? Whilo it is im- possiblo to anticipate it in any detail, ono very important result is already clearly fore. shndowed, namely: that the Turkish mis. govornument of ite Christian subjects is for- over at an end. This result is indieated in two ways: first, by the prompt rejection on the port of all the Powers of the Porto’s poacepropositions, which snbstantially would oxnct & heavy tribute from tho Christians to reimburse tho Turks for their war exponses, and would also restore the statu quo; and, second, by the chango of sentiment upon the part of the English peoplo which the Government does not dare to ignore. In this instance tho power behind the throne hns ngserted itself with signal succeas, What that sentiment is, a glanco at thoso papers which dircct the popular will in England will show. The Pall Mall Budget afiirms that no peacs will bo made that recognizos any further persecution or mis. government in the Sclavio provinces, or that effects in any manner ths home Governments of Boanin, Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Sorvin. 'Tho Saturday IReview snya that when peace is sottlod the Bervianswill be oxompt from the penalties that ordinarily fol. low an unsuccessful war, and that no poeace will be complete which does not exact pro- vision for the security of Bulgaria, although Bulgaria has not appoared as a combatant in tho war, 'L'he London Z%mes, after pointing out tho accountability of the English Govern. ment for the Dulgarinn outrages, and con- domning in unmoasured terms the indiffer- enco of the English Minister at Constanti- uople to tho reports that were made to him from official sources, says: *‘The firat duty of Englandis aregard for tho interests of this country, but it is not less true that England will never support tyranny, op- proession, “or cruelty wherever it may be found." The Spectator says very pointedly : ‘England alone, of the Groat Powers, has been supporting the Turk at Constantigople, and Mr, ScutryLen's report telly us what the Turk has in coaseyuence been doing in Dulgaria, 1t England had shown no Interest in the sffairs of tho Forte, 1f she had declined to cxpress auy opinien shout the ANusasay note or the Dorlin memurandum, tho fate of Turkey might by this time have been decided, If the lutervention of the grest mititary Powers had come too late to prevent thu outrages in Bulgaria, it would, atall ¢vents, have come In tima to uvenge them. Tho Kogllsh Governmont have very properly refused to trest the Eastern question ae s matter In which they have no con- corn, but by a disastrous misreading of the pare tlcular forin which thelr undoubted concorn fn it ought to take, they huve saved the Porte from In- tervention, witliout eubjecting It to control. There i3 no nced to dwell upon the resulty it fy Lnown unhspplly as far as the records of human crimo are carried by the exerclie of human in- genulty. \ LTrom those and numerous other expres- slons of a similar character it is ovidont that the Turco-Bervian war has not been fought in vain, The Turks have added something to theilr reputation as a military power, which has boon wmoro than offsot, however, by the roputation they hsve made as the wost rvemorsoless and cold-blooded flends that have ever been known in the bistory of mankind, and they vccupy the extraordinary position of victors who caunot dictate terms to their own*subjects. The Bervians inau- gurated the war for territorial acquisition and to end Turkish persecution. They have failed in the former, but have secured the latter. Theformer purpose was at best only @ solfiah deaire for aggrandizement, and no sympathy will bo wasted upon Borvia that she failed to obtain the strip of Bosnia which sha coveted. The latter purpose, however, appealad to tho sympathies of the whole civ- ilized world, and the whols civilized world will rejoice that whatevor terms of peaco may be agreed npon by Russia, Austria, and England,thoy will at least involve tho end of Turkish tyranny in the Christian provinces. ATTORNEY-GENERAL TAFT'S CIRCULAR. The Demooratio politicians and newspaper organs have been very active in vilifying Attérney-Genoral Tarrin particular, and the Repnblican party in general, ever since tho ciroular was issued to United Statos Marshals instructing them as to their dutics in regard to tho approaching election for Congrossmen a8 they are defined in the United Btates stat- utes, ‘Tho pretenso ia that the United Btates troops are to be used for the purposo of voting the negroes carly and often, and pre- vonting tha Confedorates from voting at all. Thore has been no oxperionce in the past to warrant any such conclusion, and tho schomo would bo utterly impractieable if there wero nny disposition to undortake it. Thero are not onough United States troops in all tho Bouth to emry out such a programme in o singlo Bouthern State; indéod, we foar thero aro not onough troops anywhere in the South to ronder efficlent ald to the United States Marshals in enforcing the laws passed by Congresa to insurs the protection of the ballot-box in Congressional eleotions ; and, if not, the Mississippi plan will bo so successfully applied that negro suffrage in many sections will bo a mero theory which tho negroes will not even attempt to put into practice, i The historyof the election laws shows that thoy wero not suggested by any nccessities of reconstruction, nor framedwith any refer- enco to the nogro vote, They woro the out- growth of the outragoons and confessed frauds in New York Stato in 1868 when Sey- ovuR was running for Prosident, and when the chief management of the Democratio campaign was in the hands of SamverJ. Tinpew, the presont Democratio candidate for President. It is no longer denied anywhere that New York Btate was caried by fraud in that year, and, had the rest of the cloctoral vota throughout tho country beoen close enough to enablo New York to turn the scale, the people would have been forced to submit to a Government which had nou boen honestly clected. This was tho year when Banmven J. Timoex's campaign circulars were jssued to tho rural Democratio managers, instructing them to make n return of majorities ** at tho minute of closing the polls, not waiting for the count,” inorder that the Tammany manngers might bo informed how Inrge & Domocratio majority was needed in New York City to overcome the Republican majority in the State. Asa result, the Domocratic vote of New York City was counted 112,622 at that election, which was 26,068 more than the pre. ceding yoar, and 84,607 moroe than in tho Pres- idential eloction four years later, The ballot- boxes had been stuffed. It was to prevent o repetition of theso frauds in Congressional nnd national elections that the acts of Con.. gross wero passed to preserve peace, secure the rights of tho citizon to vote, and prevent fraudulent voting. Tho first act wns passed in May, 1870, and in two subsequent aats the law bos boen modified 0 a8 to make it con- stitutional. Concerning tho constitutionality of thesa nots, the Hon, E. W, SrovanTox, a leading lawyer of Now York Qity, has furnished the New York 7%Ymes with an olaborate opinion sustaining it, Tho drift of the argument is that the National Logislatare ia authorized by the Tiftoonth Coustitutional Amendument to make Inws, and the Exccutive and Judi- ciary to enforco thom, to prevont any acts abridging the right of suffrage on account of race, color, or previous ' condition of sorvitude; -that, under this amendment, all that may be dono by a Btate Government to preserve the peace and pre- vont fraud at Btate olections, may be doue by the National Government in Congres- sional clections; that the election sots aro in keaping with this authority ; that Attor- noy-Genoral Tarr's circular simply defines tho duties of tho United States Marshals under the law: and, finally, that theso du.” ties ought not to be neglected or evaded. The function of the statutes as they oxist is defined na follows by Mr. SBrovanToN : The Clrcult Courtsof the United States, sitting in the respective districts of the natlon, are uu- thorized, prior to nny registration of votera for Represontative or Delegate in Congress, or prior to an election for such Dolegates or Ropreaontatives, on the application of citlzens of good stunding, to appolut and commisalon, under the seal of the Court, two cltizens of different political partivs for each election district or voting procinct, who aroto ba known aa eupervisors of elections, and their dutles are to attend =t nll thnes and places fxed for the reglstration of voters who, Leing registared, would be entitled to vote for a Tteproscntative or, Delegato In Congress, and to challungo uny porson in offering to reglster; and they arc also roquired to attend at all times and places for holdlng clections for Representatives or Delegates In Congress, aud for counting the votes cast ut such eloction; and thoy may challengo sny vote offercd if they doubt the qualification of the person offering it aud thoy are to romsin where tho bullot-boxes are kept atall thnea after the polls are open, until every vote cast has been counted, and tho requisito certlfcate and returns made; and thuy are also required to scrutinize und count each ‘Lallot fur Representative br Delegate, and the botter to enablo them to perform these dutica they are directed on tho day of reglstration and on tho day when regltered voters may be marked to be chal- lengzed, and atso on the day of clection, to romaln in such posltion—whether boforo or bohind the bal- Tot-bozes—as will, fu tholr Judgiment, best enable them to sce ouch perdon ofiering to register or to vote, and which will best conduce to the ecrutiny as Lo the munner In which the regiatrativn or voting fa being conducted; and when tho polle are cloved they ore to pluce thomaolves In such pusitions ns will best cnablo them to cunvass and count the bal- lota cast. ‘I'ho dutics of tho Marshala aro as follows: ‘They are (o kesp the peace, support and protect the supervisors In the discharge of thelr duties, preservo order ut places of roglatration and at the pully, prevent fraudulent reglstration and fragdu- lent voting, and take Into custody, with or without process, uny person who commita or attempls to commit any of the acts or offenscs prohibited, or who counnits uny offense against the laws of the Unlted Statcs; but no perdon I8 to be ar- rested without procesd, except for of fenses committed In the prevenco of Lo Marwhal, Lls Deputics, or of the wppurvisors; and it {s further provided, that whonever tho Mar- shal or olther of his Deputice is forcibly resisted iu the exccation of theso duties, or shall by vio. lence, threats, or munaces be provented from oxe- cuting sach dutles, or from arresting any pervon gulity of tho specified offenscs, wuch Marshal and each of his Duputiea I empowered to aummon, and call to his ald, tho bystanders, or posss comi- latus of ble district, ‘Thero is not a word in Attorney.General Tavr's ciroular which confliots with the law or exaggoratea the rights and privileges of Marshals and other ofticers of tho Court. If the Democratio opposition is to the law itself, the answer is that no such law woufd ever have beon passed had it not been for frands on the ballot-box committed by the Domocrats, and that, so long as there i nothing in the law which onables fraud, their opposition must be based upon the fact that the purpose isto prevent fraud. As to the employmont of United Btates troops in assisting the Mar- shals in the npplication and enforcemont of the Inw, wo fear that thore are not enough troops in the South to ba of any avail, and that tho Iaw will bo overridden snd the blacks proventad from voting in spito of their constitutional right o! suffrage and tho national legislation passed to protect it in Congressional elactions, A Morshal in Mis- sissippl who should call .upon the armed whites sbout the polls to help enforco this Iaw would bo laughed at; nnd if Lo should turn to the unarmed and terrifled negroos, not one of them would daro to raise a hand to help him. In tho absenco of troops thero ia not much hope, thon, that tho laws canbo onforced or the negroes protected in their right of voting. HAYES AND MANS, ‘The most dosperate efforta have beon mado by the Democratio managers to alienate the Gorman vote from the Republican party in tho present national contest, and in all these they have not been deterred by the slightest regard for truth, First, Haves was do- nounced as o Babbatarian, Puritan, *‘ Muck- or,” and *'Tomperenzler,” and, in the ab- sonce of any ovidence sustaining tho allegn- tions, the lio was invented that Lo had vated, as & member of tho Centonnial Com- mission, ngainst opening the Philadelphia Exposition on Sundays. This went the rounds of the German press, and was mada the most of for meveral weeks, until it was discovered that Gov. Haves wasn't even & momber of the Con. tonnial Commission, and consequently couldn't havo voted on the question one way or the other. Wa suspect that some of the Gorman papers have forgotten to make the correction. Thon'it was found that Cann Sonvnz was creating hiavoe among the Ger- man voters and atirnoting thousands of them to the support of Hayes by tho cleiwr stato- ment of the honorable motives which lave induced him to favor the olection of Hayes, 8o it was considered nocessary to break tho forco of Bonunz's influence, aud tho story was invented that ho had written a letterex- pressing tho bolief that Ohio will go against Haxes, sud also that he (Scmunz) had been forcod to abandon the stump by order of Zacx CuanprEn. But Mr, Bemunz denied over his own signature ever having written such a loiter, and ho goes on making spoeches for Haves with more effect than over. 'The latest and most vicious attempt to deceive tho German voters, however, was the charge that Haves is n Know-Nothing., To sustain this a letter was quoted purporting to havo been written by Gov. Hayes to somo Anti-Ontholic Association, indorsing their policy and npproving their opposition to al- lowing forsignors to vote. The editor of the Cincinnati Volksblatt, suspeoting this lotter to bo n forgery, addressed himself to Gov. Haves' private secretary, Mr. A. BE. Les, and promptly rocoived the following roply by telegraph: Covvxnus, O., Sept. 14.—Col, L. Markbrelt: ‘There was never any such letter written. There ls not a word of truth in the wholo story that Gov, Iaves, clther by lctteror otherwise, ever expressed such scntimonts, (Slzncd) A. E. Lxn. ‘I'io editor of tha Volksblatt also received a lottor from Mr, Lee, denying more in detail that Gov. Haves ever had any conneotion or sympathy with Know-Nothingism, or that ha evor expressed or entertained an opposition to tho naturalization of foreigners. Tho Staats-Zeitung of this city, after quoting thoso lottors, says: *Thesa statements aro satisfactory ond final. Tho charge of Know- Nothingism can hencoforth be no moro raised sgainst Gov, Haves.” Yet wo doubt whether the Domooratio newspapers, English or Ger- man, will beso prompt and candid in pro- ducing tho evidonco to controvert their own lio. ‘We think that the explosion, ono after tho other, of the various falsehoods concocted ospocially to prejudico Gov. Haxes in the minds of the Gormaus will reaot in such monner a8 to increaso tho admiration and strongthen the support of the Gormans for a mon whoso caxcor has boen ono of loyalty and patriotism, who fought bravely through- out the entiro War for the Union, whose personal character is above reproach, who is a firm and consistent advocate of an honest ourrency, and who is enthusisstically devoted to tho reform of the civil sorvice. The ex- perience with the German-American citizens in politieal affairs warrants the conclusion that this is the kind of man they would like to sco in tho Presidontisl chair, There was room for the goneral howl in the Now York Democratic State Convention to ** Givous a Domocrat” ns candidate for Governor, Tho State ticket: contains five names: (1) Loous RonixsoN, now candi- date for Governor, who wns twico elocted Comptrollor by the Republioans.

Axpenson, candidate for State-Prison Inspector, was s Ropublican until 1872, (6) Roperr Earn, candidato for Judgo, n siraight Domocrat. 'That is the tioket which TioEN forced, for his own purposes, on the Domocratic party of New York, to be voted for by Democrats, In this Stato the Domocracy hnve no candidate for QGovornor, 'Ihey agreed to support the man Srewanp, who was nominated for Governor last upring by a gathering of strange people baving strange dootrines, nud the candi. data ropudiates Trupey and Henprioxs and oll other Democrats. Out of the many hun. dreds of thousunds of Democrats in tho State the Democruts could not sclect a Dem- corat to bo voted for by Democrats for Gov- ornor of the State. BSo the managers placed this nominoe of tho Decatur impracticablos before the poople to be voted for by the Demoorate, If the Democrats iu New York and Illivois are not to have Demoorats a9 candidates, but to vote for tho apostates or backsliders from the Republican and other tivkots, they might ns well vote for the Re. publican candidates direct. There is no doubt that thousands of them will* do o in New York and also in this Stato.
