The at tondanco at the various meetings yesterday was the lnrgest yet brought together, and 1ho signs of o groat awakeningare beginning 1o gladden the hearts of tho esrnest workers in the vineynsd of the Master. An interest. ing account of the proccodings yesterday, including & verbatim roport of Mr. Moopy's sermon, will be found in our columns this morning, The result of the legislative election in Colorado js that the Houso stands 80 Repub- licans to 17 Democrats, with three districts to hear from. Tho Scnate stands Repub. licans 18, Democrats 6, and ono district n tie,—making sure in any ovent of the election of two Republicans to tho United States Senate, and tho election of three Ropub- lican Presidentinl Electors.

Wape Haxrroy, the Demo. cratio condidato for Governor, of his rendiness to protect any aud all Demoeratio negroes—if there are any—who stand in fear of violenco or Intimidation ot the hands of colored Ropublicans, Gen. Ruoen's purpose is to provent, if possible, a recurrenca of snch outragos s those of Aiken and Barn. well Conuties, nnd if ho succeeds in this the presance of his troops in South Carolina will prove a matter for gonoral congratulation, The helief i3 positive in well-informed pa. litieal circles in Washington that North Cnrolina will bo carried for Haves and Woeeren Enconrnging reports from that Btate give promise of large accessions from tho ranks of the Old-Line Whigs, who ro- mained true to the Union during the War, but Love never formnlly idontified them- uelves with tho Republican party. ‘The joint debates betweon ' Judge Serrzz and Gov.

As to the Legislature, the Confeds have tico majority in the Senate, while the Repub- licans have five majority in the House. The Republicans lost the Btate ticket by reason of the votes thrown away on the In. dependent ticket, four-fifths of whose sup- portors were Republicans. These men at the Presidential election will vote for Havza or Tmpey. They can give tho State to -gither of them, as they hold the balance of powor, THE ISSUES OF THE CAMPAIGN. The Now York Z'ribune points out very clearly that the contest in New York now turns upon two questions—the one, o ques. tion of ths currency and public honor; the other, pquestion of tho attitude and demands of tho Bouth. In other words, inflation and Bouthern claims are tho two issues pending in the enmpaign upon which the pooplo of New York must take one side or tho other. If they voto for TiLpex, they must make up their minds that bis sucoess will bo followed by adesperato struggle for inflation, to whicl Trrpex will yield, as ho Las already with re- gard to the repeal of the Resumption act, in- asmuch as tho inflationists will havo the ma- Jority in the Democratic caucus, and that the success of the party will therefore only prolong the present business un. certainty which overy week brings such dissstrons comsequonces to business all over the country. If they vote for Tinpzy, they must make np their minds that the enormous schomes for Southern improvementa and the ntill greater schemes for tho repayment of Southern losses during the War will be sad- dled upon Northern taxpayers. Theso schemeos have gathiered too much headway to be chocked. Elated with the Tiopa of Dem- ocratic success, theso Southgrn claimants caunot be chioked off if TiLpey is electod. It is the great koy to the Democratio compaign, It is tho universal demand of the South, and every Southern man who goes to Congress will go londed down with these claiims. The Democratio members of Congress will not daro to resist the pressure of the Solid South, The payment of theso clalms is a foregone conclusion, The Z'ribune very siguificantly declares E Inflation will Bweep the Democratic party one ward, becauso these clalms cannot otherwise be pald, or {he#o great Jobs made successful, Tho natural fnclination of that party to be indifferent as to the payment of the War.dobt prepares the way, Powerful perconal interests, reaching futo every Congreesional district .at the Sontl, will overwhelm the betler members, whose judgment and patriotlsm counsel n wiser course, ‘Thua ine flation will surely come, and an enormous Increase of the public debt, and an undermining of the pub- 1o credit, not so much because Democeats Intend 1o do mischicf, but Lecause they cannot resist the demands of a Solid South. This question, forced liomo upou the Intelligent votersof thin State, will make it Impoasiblo for the Demacratic party 10 car- ry Now York unless by fraud. And not only Noew York, but the whole North. Inflation and Southern claims aro thio issues that must be met by the people of overy Northern State, ‘I'ho Solid South hay joined hnuds with Northorn Copperheads to seouro tho success of these two ssues, The Northern péople, therofore, have theso two questions to decides Iivst, are thoy ready to continuo the present business uncortuinty and doprossion by voting for inflation? 8ce. ond, are they ready to bo faxed to pay for tho damages occasioned Ly Union troops in keeping the South in the Union? If so, they will volo for Tinpey and Hexpnicks’ *If, on the othor hand, they want specio ro- sumption and business prosperity, and aro not ready to pay o premium for disloyalty aftor having allowed RRebels to eseapo unpun. ished, they will vote for Haves and Wozrte, 4 THE QCTOBER VICTORIES.

TRIBUNE: MONDAY, OCTOBER IG, 1876. anything over which the Democrats have any cnuso to rojoice, nnlesa it be that things were no worse. In Ohio the Republicaus Inrgely increased their mnjority aud gained five Congrosamen, In Colorado they overeamo the Democratio majority, and elected their whaole tioket, including State offtcerss, mom. bers of Congress, State Legislature, two United States Senntors, and three Presidon. tinl Electors. In Indinna the Itepublicans have reduced tho Democratioc majority from 17,000 to less than 6,000, and in West Vir- ginin the Democratic majority is nbout what it was before. While thore is strong reasons for Republicana to rejoice over all these ro. sults, thero is a total absenca of any encour- agement to the Domocracy in tho returns from any of tho four States. To rojoice that West Virginia has gono Domocratio is on a par with rejoicing that Texas is sure to voto for Truory, 'To rejoive that the Ropublican going in Indisnn did not quite reach 17,000 is to concedo that like Republican gnins in the other Democratio States wonld give Ifayes and Wazeten tho Electoral volo of every Northern Stato and of a large number of Southern States, The contest in those States was, on the part of the Republicans: 1, To rotain Ohio. 2, 'To overcome the Democratio majorities in Colorado, Indinna, and West Virginia. The Republicans did rotain Ohio by nn in. creased mofority, gaining five members of Congress. They did overcome the Domo- eratic majority in Colorado, gaining Con- gressmen, Senators, and Presidentinl Electors, They did not quito overcome the Democratic majority in Indinna, but reduced it 12,000, and gained five Congressmen. Thoy did not gain or lose anything in the hopelessly-Dem- ocratic Btate of West Virginia. I'ie Democratic Committes appeal to the party throughout the Union to emulate thesa * Demoeratio victories™ in tha Valley of the Ohio River. A stccossion of like victories elsewhero would not leave Tinpen a Norih- ern Btate except Indinna, Tho Democratio party is mucli stronger in Ohio and Indinna than TioeN, The Demo- crats in thess States at tha recont elections voted for their own candidates, all on the Greonback platforms, They lad nothing to do with Trpex, They voted for thowr own neighbors and frionds, and for the spoils of local oflice, In November they will not be called on to vote for their own nominees, nor for their own Sheriffs, Clorks, Anditors, and Congressmen, but for Sax Trupey, the Wall street Iawyer, who sent inoney from his bar- rel to beat BiLy ArtexN in Olto in 1875, and who bought the nomination at St. Louis, Tho Groonbackors of Ohio and Indiaua, who turned out for WrrLraws, and Horsux, and Twmia, and SBovraary, will not turn out so rendily to cleot their Ancient enemy, Bax Trorx, of Now York. NO DIVISION OF POWER, The Chicago Z'tmes mny bo credited with the most ingenuous argument thit has yot appeared why the Demoerats sbould be al- lowed to eloct Mr, Troey President. Ex- amining the Congrossional prospeots, it ar. rives at the conclusion that the next Bouate will atill remain in the control of the Repub- licon party. It is confident, also, that the numerical strength of the Democrats in the House will bo greatly reduced, conceding that the majority will be reduced ns low s 17, and fearing that it may not oxcced a dozen vates. Thareupon the Zimes says: ‘With s0 moagre s majority In the Housc and a mojority of the Sonate against the Bourbon com- biustion, what utier idiocy or atrocious spirlt of miereprosentation Is it that induces the trancheon- flourishera for Mr. Haveato go about declaring that the election of Mr. TiLbrs will mean the payment of Rebel war-claime, o rofunding of the cotton. taz, and A gencral committal of the Guvernment and Treasury uto the control of a ** Solid South”'? In other words, says this ingennous organ of Bourbonism, “What harm can Mr. Y- oy do with a small Democratio majority in tho House and a Republican mnjority ngainst him in the Benato? Therefore, lot him be clected.” ‘This is exactly the same line of argument used by Horario Seryouvn in his recent lotter refusing tho nomination for Governor, So long as the Republicans have control of the Senato tho Democrats caunot do much, therefore it is absurd to talk of any barm arising from’ tho election of Tir- N, said the crafty old politicinn, in ahnost the same lnnguage as the Z%mes, But w the ovent that the Solid South goes Domo. cratic, with & Demooratic Presidont ju ihe White House sud n Democratio wmnjority n {he House of. Topresontatives, will the Zimes inform us how- long the Republican nnjority in the Sonate would bo maintained or how long Democratio Southern States would be roprosented by Republican Sonators ? If the South is solidi. fled in this clection, Domocratic Senators will be chiosen to succood the present Repub- Means in Arkenens, South Carolina, Louisi- onn, Missigsippi, and Alnbams, One of the first stops of this Congress would bo to ad- mit Utah and Now Mexico, thus securing four moro Sonators, as tho Mormons of Utah and tho Grensors of Now Mexico are good Democrats, Ilow long would it be beforo stops would be taken cither to buy up or bully the remaining Southern Senetors over to the suppori of the Demooracy? IHow long would it bo before these Senators would be compelled to resigu or chango over to tho Solid South, or murdered if they refused todoit? ‘Thera is nothing more absurd or impractl. cnl then to invite the people of this country to divido the responsibility of the Govern. ment, and the Z%mes knows it. 'The cun- ning appeal of that malicious Dourbon or- gan to give the Democracy the President and the House, Locause no harm cnn then bo doue, will bnva no weight with Republicans, ‘I'he country had o taste of thia sort of thing in Axpnew Jounsox's time, when, under similar circumstonees, hie succeeded in dojng inflnito miechlef and nearly reopened tho Clvil War. The people of this country do not want o repotition of that confusion and turmoll in tho Govornmont, I1f Haves and Warpsen are beaton nud the Democrats car- ry tho Iouse and nearly carry the Senoto, Republicans mny ss woll make up their minds that thoe Rebel-claiins business will be suceossfully pushed through, and that tho Benato will ba powerloss to arrest it, It there 38 any man who believes thoro i3 danger that theso Robel claimy will bo presented, and then voles for TiLnen and Hzxnaicxs upon tho advico of the Chieago Zimea that uo harm can bo done because the Republican Senate will prevent the payment, he is elthor a knave ora fool, and unfit to oxcrcise tho cloctivo frauchise, If he bo- liaves thero is such a dangor, itishis duty to vote the Ropublican ticket. If he docs trol of President and the House, they hiad better havo entiro control, so that wo may have a respousible Govornment that shinll work ont the whola Domocratic doctrine aud let the country hava tho benefit of it. THE CASE OF A DOUBIFUL ETATE. Thers i n Republican mnjority of nat less than 25,000 in South Carolinn. 'That is con- conceded avon by the bitterest White-Linora, Yot South Carolina is set down as one of the doubiful States. Thero in no split or disaf- foction in tho Ropnblican party to make the result of the election in the Biate doubtfal. 1t {a 80 put down simply becanso the Whito- Lino Domoceracy, ns Wang Haxrroy, {heir eandidate for Governor, has declared, are de- termined, * By the Eternnl,” to camry the Stato despito that 25,000 Republicnn mnjor- ity. 'Lho ounly thing doubtful about it is whether Wapz ITamproy and theWhite-Linors will suffer the legally-qunlified voters of tho Biate to vote. The Democrntio reform par. ty, of sltitndinous moral protensions, count upon the Electornl vote of South Carolina, beeanso Wans HaxrroN and the White-Liners aro rolied upon to suppress tho Republican mnjority as thoy have sworn to do. They aro energotically suppressing it with their riflo clubs and their rongh-riders, who, fully nrm- ed, attend Republican meotings, demand half tho time for their spenkers and half the seals for their armed followers, while with their fingers on tho trigger they significant- ly modnlate the speeches of Republican ora- tors nnd the applauso. of Republican audi- ecncees, How it comes that South Carolina is one of the doubtfal Btates is pointedly indicsted by Gen, Gany, one of the most prominent White-Line leaders of the Btate, in a recent specch in which ho snaid: 11 any one trics to prevent you from carrying tho State for TiLvex and TiAxpToN, the person or per- Bons who €0 try muat be removed ont of the way by the usc of sufiiclent force, and 1f It becomea neceasary to shoot them In order to remove them, then 1 muat be prepared to shoot rather than be Ill‘;t'ml'dfrbm redeeming the Slate from Radical rule, And that is the programme being car- ried ont, and which makes South Carolinn ono of tho donbiful States. Iow it works is signifieantly indicated by the Columbin Repister, Haxrrox's organ, in ita report of o meoting a fow days since at Darlington : Durlng the speaking news reached the meeting of a rlight disturbanco In the village. In afew momenta tho mounted clabs—800 strong and fully armed—icere in line, cool, stedy, and quiet, Col. Law commanding. The difilculty was soon sot- Ued, when the bustuess of tho mecting was re- sumed, Al was quiet In thirty minntes, Tho ladies bLehaved splendldly, thero belng no pante oc confuslon, ‘The dlflculty originated In the ehooting of & megro by n whito mon in welf- defenee, Naturally enough, the offect of such demon- sirations upon the colored Republicans, who aro daily growing more and more unvilling to bo shot by ¢ whito men in. self-defonse,” is to mako tho result doubtful in South Caro- lino. And the reform Domacracy, that ac- cepts the Fiftoenth Amendnient snd wonts the bloody sbirt buried, stands behind the White-Liners with their avowed progamme of “ removing " ovon by shooting whoever tries to provent tho Stato being carried for Tz~ pEN; and tho Demoeralic outery nagainst “military interforence” to suppress the riflo-clnbs is already ns blatant as in 18G0-'1 it waos agninst military interforence to put down tho treason of which tho rifle-clubs aro a surviving relio. ! e —— BUSINESS FAILURES IN 1876, The quarterly report of Dux, Banrow & Co., of the busincss failures in the United States and Conada for the threomonths end- ing with Soptember, has been published, It shows tiat 1876 has boen ss trying to wenk business firms as were the preceding years siuce the panice, 'The number of failures in the nino months of 1876 is lnrgely in excess of the number in any like period sinco the panic, though the avernge amount of each foilure is much less. Tho frets are thus summarized : During tho first quarter, in tho United States, there were 2, 800 fallurca; labllitics, S04, 644, 160, Socond quarter—Fallures, 1,704; labilitos, §43,« 771,273, 'Thizd quarter—Fatlures, 2,450; Hablll- tles, 817,867,711 total Illures, 7,030; total la- billtles, 160,272,800, InCanada there were 1,250 failures, the liabilities aggregating $17,780,150. The following Lable shows the number of falluros for cach of the Jast seven quartens: Aeerage Liabitttier, titoi{iies, £43, 173,00 21, 76 W00 g Ghamoo 05 70,04, 20,473 GO0 o ALTILI00 1) Sevent] 47,857,971 10,633 Thoe total number of fallures In twonty-one months was 14,787, Involving an Indebledness of £18,000,000—showing an uvorage lability for each faflurc of 824,205, with an average number oceurring each quarter of 2,112, Comparing the nina months elopsed of 1876 with the same period I 1875, the fgures show an ficreaso of faflures in numbor of 1,716, and 4 growth in labillties of over $25,000,000. Thero ara two points worthy of notico in theso figures, Oncof thoso is, tha,t while the numbor of failures has ineroased durlng the third quarter of tho yoar over that of the second quarter, the averago amount of oach failuro is less than it has been sinco January, 1876, 'This, however, docs not mnterially alter the condition of things. An increaso jnthe number of insolvents may reduco the averngo of indobtednoss, but the aggregate indebtedness romaing unchanged. 'The nine months of 4876 show an ingolvent indebted- ness of, 146,272,871, ngainst $202,000,000 in the twelvo months of 1875, If thore. maining three montis of 1870 keep pace with the provious nino months, the aggre- goto indebleduess of the insolyents will equal that of 1875, ‘I'ho second point is that the reviwl of buginess which has now become general in all parts of tho country did not fairly set in until this third quarter of 1876 had been largoly spent, Tho firms who failed would probably have not been benefited by it. These failures havo wainly been of those who hnve been struggling wilh indebtedioss ineurred whila the general market was fall-. iug, and beforo it had reached nny stand. Tho rovival of business has been slow, and has only begun from i consumption which lad ronched o moximwn, ‘Fho improvement is one Leginning in cortain lines of business which had touched as low a point s posal- ble. Tho jmprovement consists of on in- cronsed demand founded on a rednction of the cost of production, and consequently ot minimum prices. Wherover this point has been reached, the demand for consumption haa improved. Indebteduess iucwrred under other circumsiances, accompanied by loss of capital or want of capital, has continued, os it has aver since 187, to carry down all those who wero weakened by, but survived, the first crash of the panie, Of tho $156,000,000 of indebtedness of the not beliove there is such a danger, let him ginsolvents of the first nine months of 1870, vota for the Democratic candldates, aud he will fiud out soon enough the full mensure of his ignoranco. Any barrier that the Sou- ate can interfere pgainst TipeN, a Solid South, and a Democratic House, will bo as wenk as o rope of sand, The argumont of tho Zimes is altogether too thin und trans. paront. If tho Democrats aro to buve cou- New York Oity had $27,000,000, and the Btate outside the city %16,000,000. Boaton had §9,000,000, and Massachusetts outside of Noston $11,600,000., Ohicago and Illinols had nearly $18,000,000, Philadelphia and Ponusylvanin had $12,000,00. 'These aggre- gated $B8,000,000, ‘The other §64,000,000 wero distributed through all the other Stutes nnd Territorios, It will be acen that Now York had over one-fourth of the insolvency of the United States. The cffects of the panic have not yot ex/ hausted themselves.

This Is regarded by some na o prelimn- inary to an advanco in the rates of freight by the rallronds.

GARRETT, of the Baltimoroe & Ohio Rallroad, Iu his recent speech at Baltlnore, sald that there was o blockado on the New York Central Rait- rond becausc.of Its inabllity to perform tho business it had undertaken to do. Whatever the truth may be, the inability of the raflroads to furnish transportation fs looked upon as really a prelliminary monsure to the exaction of higher rates. Iu tho meantime the receipts ot graln Ynve been very Inrme, Last week they amounted to 8,300,000 bushels. It I8 true navigation I8 still openand lnke frelghts continuc moderate, but the season fs getting late, and must closa before the graln now hers and continuing to nrrive will be shipped. A withdrawal of cars fs equiv- alent to o strike of rallroad transportationm, looking to an advance of rates under a pressure to reliove the West, We think it lkely that there will bo an ad- vance of raflroad frefghts before very long; but this advance of frelghts will not include an abandonmentof the VANDERBILT pollcy of mov~ {ng grain Ly his roads s low o8 it s moved by the shorter lincs.

Unlike the mounds in the Northwest, with which wo arc famillar, theso wero originmlly elevated plateaux of soil, not constructed for burlal purposcs, The lceturer concluded that they were made as heds onwhich togrow malze, It is well known that the Indian corn requires a dry sofl, and such a soll could only be obtatued Ly lfting it above tho general level, in the absence of mammoth systems of artifleial drainage. This conjecture is plausible, and probably furnlshes the best explanation of the facts ns we seo them to<day. But the Pro- fessor took one step farther back,—a step that can bhardly be regarded os any other than the one beyond the sublime. He argued that these earth-clovations wore made, and malzo-gultivation practiced by, the peoples of 180,000 to 250,000 ycars ago, who lived be- yond the southern edge of the glacler system, and followed {t as It slowly melted away to the northward, The Idea that theso littlo hillocks shiould have so ateadily and uniformly re- sfsted tho all-leveling forces of the atmosphero through such a lonz strotch of ages, during which big bille have been worn down (nto plains, to say nothing of subterrancan forces, requires & vast quantity or philasophy for its aceeptation.
