Philndclphin, therefore, rejoices at tho prospect of an annual remowal, on o small seolo, of the Centenninl rush and ex- citement. e A conspirncy has been discovered in Con- stantinoplo to nesnssinato tho Geand Vizier and MipuaT Pasma. Several high ofiicors contocted with the Governmeut have been implicated in tho affsir and sont out of the country.

A decision of general intorest to the hold- ers of lifc-insurauco policies wns yesterday rendered- by tho United States Suprome Court. 'I'ho suits in question were those of policy-holders residing in Mississippi during tho War, and who were debarred by the War from rewitting their snnual promiumas against Northern companies, and tho Conrt held that the compenics conld lawfully de- clare kuch policies forfeited by renson of non-payment, but the assured were entitled to the equitable value of the policics nrising from promiwmns netually peid, this equitablo valuo boing the differenco botween the cost of a now policy and the present valuo of : promiums yet to be paid on the forfeited policy at the timo of tho forfeiture, . Information bins reachod Washington that large numbers of tho former members of ‘Wane Haxrrox's Itebel eavalry legion have rnllied around their old commander, and aro doing ecffective work for him in the presont canvass, Thoy have organized into com- ponies under their old officors, nud, armed with sabres and cnrbines, oro earrying the gospel of reconciliation and peace among tho colored Republicans of Sonth Carolina, They have aven penetrated into North Caro- linn, and if tho rautbless despotism of the Federal Government does not interfero to eheck thoir viotorious careor thero is no csti- mating tho value of their achiovements in behalf of ‘Tiupexn, Hasrroy, and Reform, A fow dnys of unintorrupted parading by these Ilanrrox rangors will sorve to Impress thou- sands of nogroes with o sonso of tho supe- xiority of the whito raco, and to convince thom of tho ndvantage of cither voling the Domocratic ticket or elso staying nt homae on the day of clection, In anothor column i printed the report of Capt, Onayron 1ALy, of tho Sixteonth In- foutry, commading the United States troops stationed at Monroo, La., giving the particu. larsof tho attemptodmurder of Prrsus Joun- sox and Eatox Loxawoop, two colored men, whogo only offonso consisted in their owner- ship of onch a smull farm and the fact that they both voled the Ropublican ticket. Thoy were fired upon in front of their houso by two disguised Tildenites, JonnsoN being killed outright, nnd Loxawoon so badly woundod that for a time his recovery was congidered hopelegs. Capt. Harwn recites the particulars of tho brutal murder in the plain, terso Ianguage that o soldier employs in reportiug to his superior officer, with no attempt to exng- gorate or misvepresont the fucts, 1Te s a fearless, impartial nurrator of actual ocour. rences, uud his nccount of the affair must bo aceopted a3 wtrictly trae. Trom his report can also Lo gained an acourate conception of tho worlhlessness aud inefliciency of the law officers of the reglon, where nothing but the prusence of United States troops proventsthe wholesalo pusassingtion of colored Repub- Henns, Tho Chieago produco murkots wero gen. eradly tame yesterday, aud most of them wero caslur tiil afternoon, Muss pork closed o shado firmer, at §16.90 for October nnd $15.85 soller the yonr, Lard closed firmer, ot $9,76 cash and §0.42}@9.45 seller ‘the year, DMoeats wero dull, at Gjo for new shoulders, boxod, 8jo for short vibs do, aud 8o for do short clears.

One hun- dred dollars in gold would buy $109.75 in greenbacks at tho close, In the confusion of reports from FEurcpo it ia still dififeult to discover what the exnact gituation is. ‘Thot an effort is now being mado to securo nsix woeks' truco there is liltlo doubt ; still, from the fact that Russin hins the inside track at Constantinople, and Russian Ambassadors keop their own coun- sels, it is hardly to bLe snpposcd that the storics of correspondents are anything more than mere speculations. It appears to bo rensonnbly cortain that the Turkish army ia still forcing its way into tho heart of Servia, and that tho prospeets aro, sliould no unfor. goen ovent occur, that tho invaders will ero long reach tho Servinn Capital. With this condition of nfiaira existing, tho question whother Russia is inclined to dopt tho policy of active intervention in behalf of Sorvin must soon ba answered, The most {mportant rumor is that which eredits Ron- manin with having declared lLer independ. ence, proclaimned Princo Cranies King, and formod n closo nilianco with Russin. 8Bhould thisroport prove correct, it will be hardly lesa ombnrrassing to the negotifitors than actuel intervention by Itussin. 'Tho story has un- favorably affected the English and Continent- ) markets, and has to that extent been cred- ited in tho European Capitals. et Tho Supremo Court has givon n decision in tho Evaxs-CALLAGHAN case, tho effect of swhich will bo to restore Evaxs to the placo of Town Collector. 1t will be remembered that the Town Board, after exnmining the caso thoroughly, decided that tho alcetion hind been vitinted by the stulling of the bal- Jot-boxes, and that, by reason of tho failure to clect on this account, they nppointed Catuacnay Collector. Evans nsked leave to file a quo tearranto compelling CALLAGHAN to show by what authority ho held the office. "T'his was denied Ly the Circuit Court, whose decision hns now been reversed by the Su- premo Court, The Suprome Court roys there could not have been o failuro to elect, sinco thero wera only two candidates, and the ono receiving o mnjority of tho honest votes would Lo entitled to the office. 'Ihero nol being n failure to clect, the 'Town Board hied no suthority toappoint. Nor lnd it any nuthority, says the Court, lo czamine and doterming ns to the fraudulent votes. In- decd, the only legal way, in tho opinion of the Bupremo Court, for contesting MMr. Evaxe' clection was in tho usual proccus of proving up fraudulent votes onough to vitiate his majority nud beforo a competent court of Iaw,—a process which would leave 3Mr. EvAss in possession whilo taking the usual tour of tho courts, There is no uso in ds- puting the Supremo Conrt on Iaw-points, but we may bo permilted to sny that it is extremely wnfortunnte that tho declsion in this coso, ns in so mony others, comes in {he shapo of cncouragement to the Lallot. box stuffers, and practically rewnrds the beneficiarios of frandulent voting by seeur- ing them in their places until along, tedious, intricate, nnd almost impracticablo way of proving up tho frauds shall have gone the usual routine of o serics of courts. ——erem DANGERS TO THE FUBLIC CREDIT. Tho Now York Fceming I’ost wns nuthor- ized to state, nud did state, that lotters had ‘een reccived from England ropresenting thint the Syndienta would not be able to make any farther progress in tho negotintion of the now 4} per cent loan, boeauso of the distrust ontertained that the clection mny result fo- vorably to the Democeratic party. M Bre- MoxT, of New York, took upon himself the duty of denying tho trath of this statement, and pronouncing the story n politieal inven- tion, Ar, Beryoxt, howover, gives no as- suranco that if Tioes bo clected the Demo- crotic party will adhere to the policy of mnintaining the public credit which has heen in foreo under the Ropublican party, Ordi- nnrily, there would bo no question affecting {ho public credit involved in the chnugo of Adwministration, oven if thero should bon changoof partics. Butlhocondition of fiunn- cinl nffairs is in o peeuline one. The Republican party at tho close of the War funded tho varions public obligations in ¢ coin" bonds, In 18GY, ng soon as the Re- publican party got control of tho Govern- ment, it ouacted the uational pledgo that the public debt, including the legal-tender notes, was paynble, principnt and interest, in coin. This pledge at that time was an imperalivo nccessity, beeauso the Democratle party had at tho election for Presidout the precoding year declared uunnimously in favor of an unlimited issne of papor-monoy, sud in favor of doclaring the bonded dubt of the United Htates payablo in this paper money, This nntional pledgo of 166 was madoin the freo of the protests of the Democratic party, The Republicans at once began tho siuking fuud for the redemption of the public dobt, und has continued it ever sinco; it wlso bo. gan thoe application of the surplus revenue to tho puyment of tho public debt, and within the seven years thero havo boon over #600,000,000 of tho principal of the bonded Aubt pald and redcemed at an anuunl saving of §36,000,000 in interest. 'I'ho credit of tho United States, which in 1869 was rated at 81 centson tho dollar for gold bouds, and much less for eurrency, at ouce improved. Under this policy of the Itepublican party the Government eredit has so improved that it has been nblo to substitute 500,000,000 of 6 per cent bouds nt pur for au equal amount of 6 per cents, and was now ox- changing $300,000,000 of 1} per cent Londs at par for an cpd wmomt of 6 per cents, whon the exchango was srrested by the peil of the election of Ty, It is not fnerely the chango of Prosidents that can aficet the publio credit, but it ii intho probable change of untiounl policy that the danger lies, Cin Mr, Brwyont give, nd e does not give, nn asgurance that the Domoeratie purty, it put in power, will not: 1, Tndlato the ewreney ¥ 2, Will not, by tho atlowanceo of Coufederato clalms, iuerenso the pubiie dubt, or swell the oxpenditure, and, of course, incrensothe tr: tion of the country? .

In the next place, the election of o Democratio Presidont is only possibloe by the solid vote of tho sixteen Sounthern States whose people aro a unit in the demand for payments of losses sustained by thom during the War, their cloims aggrogating pot less than $2,000,000,600, cqual to £) wholo of tho preseut netionsl dobt, nis cowbination of A THE CHICAGO 'TRIBUNE: TUESDAY., OCTOBER 24, 1876, circumnstances does not lead to n antisfectory nssurance that the present financinl policy of the country, will be preserved in casoof change of parties. On the contrary, @ radienl chango of that policy is demandad by the South and West, when nn inflation of the currency equal {o the pnymout of these Soutbern claima will bo domnnded. It shiould bo borno in mind that TrLpex's ¢lection is only possible in tho event of his receiving the voto of tho *“Folid South,” which vote will nceossarily equal two-thirds of all the votes ho will get. 'Fheso Sonthern States 1ill command and control the policy of the Democratic party in power, 'Lho pooplo of theso sixteen #tiates are poor; they nre not an industrious people; they ‘Inck the energy to recruit their fortuues by labor. Theso States aro heavily in debt, and, in- stead of Lravely neoling thoic obligntions and bullding up their credit, they havo re- sorted Lo repudiation. Here is (heir financiol record: The Stato of Alabama owes a pub- lic debt of H27,236,000, 'Fhe people of that State have amonded their Constitution, and havo offered their creditors, in payment of their debt, new bouds, ns follows: Old delit, Neic honds, ceeiens$ B,BUG,R00 §7, 801,61 . 1,164,000 500,000 ST, 011 100,000 11,441,000 1,000, 0 s03 80,702,701 Theso new bonds aro to bear an average rate of 2 per cont interest for five yenrs. "That is the woy Alabama offers to pay her own debt, It can bo imagined how solicitous that State will bo to pay the War dobt of tho Union. Arkansns owes n dobt of 312,108,000, On this debt the payment of interest has been stopped, nnd the Stato oflicers ara proposing to tho creditors to take new bonds and seale tho debt. Florida owes nenrly 6,000,000, and has paid no interost for suveral yonrs, Georgin has repudiated §10,000,000 of her bouds, issued for railroad purposes. Louisiann is in default for intorest on820,~ 000,000, aud has formally repudiated soveral millions of dollars of that sum. North Carolinn owes $39,000,000, includ. inge interest past dno, and the State hay for- mally declared its insbility to pay citbor principal or interest. South Carolina owes n lnrge debt, which ling nlrendy been once senlod, and the interest hins been in default over a yoar. Mennessco owes over $20,000,000, the in. terest on which is in defanit, Virginia owes $18,000,000, on which inter- est is in defoult, . Iliese debts amount to $220,000,000, bear- ing 14,000,000 o year interest, and may bo said to bo oll practieally ropudiated. Theso people have no horror of repudiation; thoy have fumiliarized themselves with it, and renlly regard it ms sharp statesmanship to aveid taxation by repadinting their oblige. tions, 'Phoy eare nothing for public credit. ‘[heyfind no shame in repudiation, but laugh at tho importunity of creditors. Yot in caso of the clection of T1upey theso people are to be rulers in the Government., ‘Lo them wiil ho commilted tho duty of preserving the nn- tional honor and the public credit, and to pay the interest and principal of a dobt in- curred in what they uusanimously donounco a4 nn unconstitutional war upon the soverign- ty of frea nnd independent States. Tow will theso pooplo legislato to preserve the publie credit when they, forming, as they will, the bullt of the Democratic party in Congress, will have beforo them tho oxpansion of the currency, the payment of their own elnims, and tho creation of n mow debt, nud the eventunl repudintion of the old ono? No wonder that the negotiation of the now loan has DLeen susponded until it is ascertained whethor tho Democratio party, thus mado up of inflationists, clnimants, and ropudintors, shall be put in chiarge of tho national credit. MORF. TLSTIXONY ABOUT TILDEN. 1t will ba remembered thot the most favora- Dlo showing it hins been posnible to minke for 'I'1.oEN concerning his income tax is that ho paid iax on au average incomo of $15,000 8 year during the yenrstha tnx wes lovied. Yot an *‘ex-Direotor, of the Chieago & North- westorn Railroad " writes to the Now York Times, showing that insix years Mr. T~ puN's earnings and profits from his connee- tion with that Company alone wera not loss than $174,000, or nearly double tho averngo incomo on which he paida tax. "This gen- tloman's communiceation gives tho dotnils of some of tho transactions. 'hus in 1861 and 1862 Mr, Trpey purchased bonds of the Milwaukee & Iforicon Railrond Company, with o view to coneolidation with the North western, which he sold enrly in 1863 at a profit of 214,600, In 1862 ho drow tho trust-deed and acted ns Trusteo for tho Green Bay oxtension of the Northwostern Company, o wervice for which his ordinary foo would be 5,000, In18G3 ho drew tho papers inn 7 per cent mortgngo issued by the North- western on its rolling stock, purchased with tho proceeds from tho sale of tha bonds, for which his usual feo was 5,000, In 1863 ho drew the papera and acted as Trusteo for tho ‘bonds of the Poninsula Railrond Company, for which ho recelved n cash feo of 5,000 Ho wns also a heuvy purchaser of Peninsuln stock at 95 por cent and bonds at 75 per cent, on which lie renlized a profit by the subsequent cousolidation estimated all the way from 865,000 to £175,000. And as ho drew «ll the pnpers for the consolida- tion, his feo could not have been losa thf $5,000, In 1863 also ‘o drow tho papers for Lho uxelimngo of second-nortgage Northwestern bouds for preferred stock,—n professional servico for which hin usual fee was $5,000, It was intho mume year that he mansged tho con- sulidation of the Hockford & Kenoshn Nail- rond with tho Northwestern, out of which he nuade somo $i3,000 on tho bonda besides Lis professionnl fee, which was probably not loss than $5,000, Adding these items to. gather, Mr. "Lrepes's reecipts from this sine o corporation in 1863, snd his profits from transactions in connuction therewith, wero nol less tan 504,000, thongh the entire in. ents returnod for thet year was ouly aboat £ 05,000, wo bedivve. Wo print the communieation in full elso- whure, ro that the items may bo exmmined in detai v is onu point especially worthy of notice, It i3 alleged. that, in 1861, M, Tirvan not only reccived a fee of $10,000 ensh for drawing the papers for the con- eolidation of the Gulena Unton with tho Novlhwestern, but that $26,000 were piid hifm s his shave’of tho profits in a pool of Gulena stock that had been bought in to bring ubout iho consolidation, Bubse- quontly it was found that this wes an_crror, andd thut My, 'Tieoes's share was only 24,000, ond the ussevlion is vow ade thoat ho hns pewsistently refused to refuud the £22,000 paid him by mistake. Yhis i3 on a par with his alleged stonling of the Hauvey contract, iu which he had pledged bis * sacred honor™ to de something he never did, 8o in a sin- glo transaction 1u tho year 1864 ho roccived §86,000, whily poying on a totul income of gomelling like £15,000, Indeed, it muat bo kept in mind that all theso itemn aro in con- neetion with a singlo corparation, and ean . wearcely inclade nll his professlonal enrnings nnd othor profits, PRI PRESIDENTIAT, ELECTORS. The St. Louls Republican, Springtield Reg- ister, and nomerother Confedornto organs aro dotormined to 1nako n bad matter worso by further confusing the system for counting the Flcetoral votes, and charging that the Congrossionnl twenty-second joint rule was dropped ns o part of n Republican conspira. ey to throw the wholo matter into the hands of the Presidont of the Henate, and eount in the Republiean enndidato whether ho bo clected or mot. 'This chargo is nt onco victous and ridiculous. Tho facts nre (1) that the Democratic Tlouso {s responsiblo for the failuro to adopt a jolut rale supploment- ing tho constitutionnl provision, mnd (2) that, by tho owmission, Congress falls back on tho prretico that prevailed more than sixty years, from tho timo of the ndoption of the TPwolfth Amendment enrly in tho century down to tho count of the Eloctoral volo of 1868, when the twonty-sccond jolnt rule was first applied. 'Tho twonty-second joint rule was palpably unfair, and also without any warraut in the Constitution, since it made cither I{ouso, acting alone, n compotént tri- bunnl to reject the vote of nny State, Tho way it came to boe droppad is clenrly told in tho following extract from the Wnshington Star, founded upon the official recokd : “Thhe record shows that when the Tlousa met lnst winter, on motion of Mr, Itaxpatt. it adopted the Jolnt rules in Banctav's dicost. The coneurrent resolution waa ceriffied to by the Speaker and Clerk nud sent to the Senate, When {t was announced, Senator EmtuNvs roe [n his place nud rtated that there was no niecessity for fmmedialo actlon, as he was convinced thut the rules ought to be umended, and for this renron he entered a motion, which pro- vailed, which referred the louse resolntion on the anbjeet to the Committee on Itules, After rome dulay the Committer on Rules of the Senate bronght in a substitute for the Iunse resulutlon, the most fmportant amendment being wrged by Senator Montex with reference to the twenty-scc- ond joint rule, which preseribes the manner for counting tho Electoral voto. In substanco ho Mourox amendment nbrogated the right of elther IHouse to objct to the counting of the vote of nny Slate, s was provided for Ly the rulesof Ban- crav's digest, After n good deal of dlzcueston In the Senate, In which the importunce of amending the rule was urged by Senator MomTox, Henator TuervaN moved an awendment, Tt being only technical and having no effect to impasr what Mr, Montox sought to uccomplish, tho latter accepted the Trunsax amendment, snd a8 thus amended the concurrent reeolution of the House adopting the rules ret forth in Bancrav's digest was paseed, 1t wns retnrnud to the iouse for ita concurrent ae- tion. Tho Committee on Iules of that body, of which ex-Speaker Knun was Chalrman, proceeded to condlder the Senate amendmenls, and had ngreed to report the Senate substitute to the Houge for its action, wlen some of the Democrats [n the Senate, fearing that they hiad made o mistake,” entered motfon to reconsider tho previons action of the Senate on the subject, and tha motion was carred, The cllect of this waa to recall the resolution from the House, 1t was recalled, and up to tho end of the sessfon was not agaln acted upon, Pfus it will be seen thot the Democratic Tlonse, for soliish and parlisnn purposos, re- jected n mmlo proposed by a Democratic Senator (Mr, Tuunaay, of Ohio), nnd left Congress without any rulo on the subject. If wo are not mistakon, tho essencoof the proposed rule was to requiro the concurrent action of both Tousos of Congress in order to reject tho voto of auy State, This was fmmeasurably fuirer than the rule permitting cither 1louse to rcject, but it is doubtful whotlier oven the proposed substituto wos constitutional, sinco there is nothing in tho Constitution of the United States cuthorizing Congresa lo kot itself up as o judgo of elections in the different States cx- cept ns to its own membership, ‘Tho fnet is that the Presidentinl Electors are Stato oflicers, nnd ench Stato regulates heir clection by laws of its own, ‘Chis io in keeping with tho Constitution, which soyn (Art. IL, Sece, 1.) that *‘Ench Stato ahall appoint, in such manner ns the Tegis- Inturo thercof shall direct, s number of Electors equnl to the wholo number of Sena- tors and Itepresentatives o which the Stata may bo entitled in Congress.” The mannor of nppointing is left at tho discretion of each State, which fixes it by law, and is the judge of its own choice. Electors may be appoint- ed by the Legisinturo or Ly tho dircet vote of tho people. ‘Thus the law of Illinoeis pro- vides that Electors shall Lo electad by goneral ticket ; that the clerky of tho verious county courts shall caunvass tho votes, mako three copies of the returns, transmit ono to the Gaovernor, ono to the Scerotary of State, and retain tho tlurd; that the Governor shall open and count tho votes within twenty days after tho returns ara made; that the Govern. or shall publish tho result and transmit by il certifleates of clection to the perions chosen ; nnd that the Electors shall meet at tho Capital of the Stato on the dny nppoint. ed by tho Inw of tho United 8States to vote for President and Vice-LPresident, ‘Lhe Cone stitution of the United States (Lwelfth Amendment) provides : The Electorsxhinil mect in thelr respective States and vota by ballot for President and Vieo-Preste dent, one of whom at least sholl not be nu lolnb- Itant of the seme State as themwelven: they whall name in their batlots tho peraon voted for ny Presi- dent, and fn distinet ballots the person voted for 0y Vice-President, and the number of votes for each, which Jut they shall ki, and cortify, and transmlt, meated, to the Prewident of tho Sennte, "o President shall, tn tho presence of the Senato and Jiouse of Nepresenlatives, open all the certli- cater, nud the votes shall then be counted, From this it i evident enough that Con- grons has nmo coustitutional diseretion in choosing Electors, but simply the ndwinis- trativo duty of counting their votes ng thoy comu properly certificd to Congress, Con- gress can only reeognizo such Blectors from linois as have been doclared elected by the Govermor of 1linois, nud have recoived their certificates of clection from him. The law is presuranbly tho saimo in tho other States, ‘but whoro it is difforont then Congross must nbide by tha lnw of cach State determining tho Electors, and recognizo those who havo Loen declared elected by the proper Stato authoritics, In this wny no two sots of Tlectors can lnwfully present thamselves to Congress for the arbitrament of that body. If thero is any contest as to tho result of an clection in any Btate, it must bo settled within that Btote, and In couformity with the laws thereof; but the Electors whoso votes are properly listed and cortificd to Congress, sceording to the State laws, ava tho only persons who have any claini for recognition, and Congress 1oy uot coustitu. tionally go bnck of a lawful cortificate, Thus if the Republicans elect thelr ticket in this State nud the Democrats desire to con- test, they must do so under the laws of this Htato, but whon the Governor shall have no- titled tho Electors, aud thoy kave met and voted ag provided by law, Congress will havo uo discretion to rojoct their vote or substi- tuto any other sot of Electors, fho chorgo of & Iepublican conspiracy that * Senator Feney shail daclaro who is Prosident without regard fo tho votes cast by tho Eloctors of the peopla " thus falls to tho ground.

If Unlted Stotes roldlers are ordered to fire upon the people, the latter must not resist, but Uare their breaats and be willing to die for the good of the country. Wapre Hasmreroy, candidate for Governor of South Carolina on tho Demooratic ticket, notwithstanding his secession proclivities and negrophobin, has usually Leen nceredited with some degree of manliness nud honora- ble, roldierly conduct. Tha cxtract from his Aiken speech, however, ns quoted nbove, shows that thero is n misapproheusion on that point, For sniveling cant, abominable bypoerisy, and puggestivo lies, tho prosent campnign has developed nothing that can comparo with it. In tho first plnco ho nd- vises “the people” not to offer resistance. "'o whom is this ndvico nddressed? Cortnin- 1y not to the mnjority of the people of South Carolina, beenuso the majority are Republic. nus who have done nothing and propose to do nothing that will render them liable to arrest. “‘The poople,” therefore, nre the nunority. What is the composition of that minority? White-Liners, Ku-Xlux Klans, tifle-Clubs, negro-hunters, mobs orgavized to Lreak up Republican mestings, to shoat negroes, to drive thoir families from their homes, lo proscribe, terrorize, and intimidats TRepublican votors, . and to disfganchiso thom in November, aud * the people,” as Wape Hasrrost torng thom, aro led by Ganx, who openly advises them to elioot Republicansif they offer to vote, and by Burrer, whoso favorite modo of warfare is to mnssacro prisoners after thoy aro taken, 1fo ndviscs the peaplo to offor no resistanco toarrest. Why should thoy ? ‘Thoy aro not linble to nrrest unless they havo committed some act ngninst the laws. If they lavo committed murder in shooting Republicans, they ought to bo arrested, duly tried, nnd suceessfully hanged on the nearest possiblo pallows, Itis rather gratuitous for Wann IaxrroN to advise criminals not to resist arrest. * Submit to everything,” says Wapz IIasteroN. ‘That is, if his * people ” lave Xkilled n Ropublican for presuming to attond n Republican mecting, they must not shoot the soldiers who have come down thero to protect citizons in the rights guarnnteed thom by the Constitution ond tho laws, ‘That s kind of Wapg Haneron ! They must * bare thoir brensts nnd be ready to die for their country,” 'I'ke infomous andlying inferenco to bo drawn from this hypooritical cant is, that United Statos soldicrs hnve been sent to South Carolina to collect innocent people, people who are respectable, orderly, law- abiding citizens, toko them out in #quads and shoot them, and that like Quakers they aro to fold their arms aad quictly suffer thomselves to bo shot! And it is for this purpose Wapz Haxrrox would have us believe thut troops havo beon sent to Bouth Curolina ! A moro disgasting exhibition of eniveling, whining cant has not Leen made sinco tho campnign commenced. Wape Hayrron very woll knows that tho troops arc in South Carolina to-dny to proveut tho Rifle-Clubs from murdering Republicans., 1lo knows very well that no mau who oboys tha Iaws is in danger of being shot or molested by the troops. o knows very woll that tho soldiers aro in that State to stop murders, to provent neivil war, and to protoet voters in their rights ny citizens. o knows very well that boyond this tho soldiers have no duty to porform, Knowing all this, his action in the promises shows him {o be an arrant dema- goguo nnd hypoeritical snenk, who is un- fitted to bo the Governor of Bouth Carolinn. If tho people of his State hinvoe a tithe of the chivalry and honor of which thoy bonst so much, Wanz TTaxreroy ought to Lo au obfect of contempt among them, instend of an as- pirant for office ———e "The dinbolical ernclty of the Turka is onco moro illustrated in n statement laid before the Great Powers by tho Patriarch of Con- stautinoplo, Ierctofore the reports of these erucltics have come from tho L'urkish prov- inced in Europe, but now the same horrible story is repeated fromn Avmonis, on tho trans- Caucasinn sido, 'Tho Armoniaus wero onco o nation of 8,000,000 people, but now thoy have dwindled down to 2,600,000, 'Their tarritory, like Poland, hag beon partitioned among sevoral States—the Empires of Tur- koy aud*tussin and the Kingdom of Persin. ‘I'hoy nro nn intelligent, thrifty, and lnbo. rious peaple.

The protests only come from the furkish vietims, Tho Patriarch of Con- stantinoplo soys : Tho Ports directs her Valls, Mutcsenrifts, and other rulers, to keep the Christlans in a state of sbrolute depondence and of o marked inferfority to the Mussulnan clement, 80 a8 lo placa the two races In perpotual antagonism, and, by dooming hotli to misery und want, stiile amonz them those nepleations to frecdom which can only spring from the development of materfal well-being. Ho rockons that 5,000,000 of Govornmont ofleinls, with their familios and dopendents, live upon the industrial clugses, Loy are not nallowed to go into the army. Tholr evic denco s not taken in tho courts, Their con- veuts aro plundered. Their women ara vio- Inted and girls alducted. Their priosta nro murdored, Nino hundred enses of murder nud other ountrages Lave boon reforred by tho Patriarchate to tho Government within a fow yenrs, aud not one of them hns ever been oxaminod. A correspondent of tho London 7'%mes, who had talked with gome of tho moro intelligent Armenians in Conatan- tinople, roports them os saying that if au- tonomy is incxornbly denied, if tho ovils thoy hinve 8o long sulmnitted to avo in no way {o abato, tho abuses not to be reformed and tho griovances not to Lo redressed, thoy could not help lovkiug either to the Rus- sinus or to any other invaders ns their bost frionds aud deliverors. Perhaps tho pres. onco of o large Russian army in the vicinity of Armenin may have someathing to do with tho removal of thelr troubles. 'fho Governor and Attornoy-General of tha soversign Btato of Goeorgin have resolved that tha circular, letter of Attorney-Genoral 'arr, and thoe act of Congress known as the TEnforcoment nct, sholl not bo respeoted in that Btate. It will bo remembured that Attorney-General ‘Tavr instruoted tho United Btotes Marshals that in the performance of their duty they were authorizod to call upon tho passe comitatus in any district; and that for this purpose thoy could insist upon the porvico of any BState troops, or militia, or other hody of citizons; that tho national authority in the execution of tho nntional Iaws was suporior to that of any Btate or locnl nuthority, ‘The Governor of Georgin proposes to fustruct the Greorgia militin te uhoy no ordevs oxeopt fromt tho otlivers com- minsioned by tho Htato. 'Ihls, if followed by the State officers, will leavo tho United Btates Marshals without tho power to enforca thoir process whon forco niay be nceessary. 'hig‘s tho old doctrine of State Hoverelanty ns againgt tho nntionnl authority, Tho argnment is that the United Btates can oxer- ciso no powers in tho State of Georgin ox- cept by tho consont of that Stateand through tho offlcers of that State, tho United Slates being ns to Georgin, in the words of Mt Trupey, o * foreign State,” nnder tho control of a ** foreign Government." The Clnctun: publican papers continue to uncarthh Demucratic frauds committed at the recent clectfon n that city. ‘The Gazeltehins overhauled another election preeinct, and finds about 150 boxus names on the poll-book. It publisties the list, and calis on the people of the preenet to help it seareh for the ownera, The matter 18 assuming u shape not nearly so funny und' focetious fn the cyes of the Enguirer as 1t appeared at first, What first sot the Cazefte and Commerclal to suspecting “gomething rotten in Denmark? was the strange fact that innl the Democratic wards the number of votes cast largely excceded the whole adult male population of those wards, fncluding ultens, tranelents, aud citizens, as as- certafued lnst April by the Ward Aescssors. Under the laws of Ohlo, tho Ward Asscssors are required, every four years, to report the names of all male iuhabitanta In their distrlcts who nro 2L years old or over. These reports were mnde this year, and the nwinber of male persons over 21 years of age in each ward was nseertained. Yot in cvery Democratic ward (n that city the vole retrrned at the lute election was in cxcess of the number of males thus ascerlained. The followlng table shows thie number of votes cast fn the wards named more than the total adult maie population of the wards, ns only re- cently carefully nscertained by the Assessors: Bighteenth Ward 2 Nineteenth Ward Twenty-firat Ward Tiwenty-fifth Ware 170 163 The Democratic vote In some of the precincts of ather wards had also suddenly and strangely swollen beyond expectation, and the great in- crease is now accounted for by finding en the poll-lists hundreds of uames for whom no owners ean be discovered, The scoundrels eame over from Kentucky, got in thelrwork, and then silently stole away. A dozen ar two of repeaters have been canght and jugged and held for trial, but the largre gangs of Contederate ralders from Kentueky have not been caught, although they performed their work of * reform ! pretty ef- fectually,~having clected two members of Con- gress and nearly a whole county ticket, e — The Democratle stumnpers Insist fn all thelr harangues that the people are perfectly wild for n chenge of Administration from National Republican to Demoeratic-Confederato; that they are fo erazy for a chanige that they can hardly walt for election day; that they are nearly jumplug out of thelr skins for o change. Put it is strango that the electlons which have taken place du not bear out the nssertion, Two years axo Ohfo by 17,204 majority voted fora “chanze” One year ago the same State changed its mind and by 5,644 majority voted against o change of Adwministration. A fow daya ago tho people of the same Stato by 0,000 mujority voted against o change of Ad- minlstrution from Republican to Confederate, And yet we are told by the Democratic orators that tho citizens of the great Buckeyo Stute are perfectly wild tor a change of Admin- fstratlon, But they tell us that it fs in Indluna this yearning for a change Is most powerfully manlfest. Lot us see if it 18, Two years ago, by n inajority of 17,200, the Stata voted for a change. After thinkiugthe matter over for two years, 12,000 of those who wanted s *change ¥ coneluded thut they had been hasty, and that it would bo tho better policy to let the Govern- wment remain in the hands of the Unfon people; only 5,000 majority of the llooslers on the 10th of Uctober thought that a change was necesaary. But a good many of thesv are lesltating, and it is very questionable whether a majority of the Indlanions do not vote agulnst n chango from Republican to Confederato ou the 7th of November, There docs not exist that wild anxtety for n change which the TiLpEN brawlers would mnke peopls belleve. On the contrary, there appears to be o pretty general sentinent that the better and safer course s to let well- cnough alone aud not Uy to ills we know not of 1 puesuit of a change. e e— .
