Itis doubtful whether even auch a course would ro- sult in any permanent settlement of the Eastern dimeults. dJounny Lama, the alleged murderer of Voticeman Race, and who waa convicted of tho offense by a Jury in the Criminal Court of this county, has been granted a new trint by the Su- preme Court, The grounds on which tho new trlal {s granted are that the evidence was insut- fictents that the refusal of the Judge tn the court below to neeept tho fastructions of the prison- er’s comnsel was alegal error; aud that there was no evilence golng to show 4 conspiracy on tho purtol Lainb and others to commit bomichto, ‘The yeanting of t new trinl fs taken nga virtual acquittal by Lamb's counsct, “| Ix his zeal for his ya success Senator MeDonald Nas got himself Into trouble with tho Post-Oilica wutburities at Whahingtun.

Col. Yost,“ Mun" Buchanan, and C, W. Brouge, of Judlanapolls; Itietard Gregg, Greenback eandi- Ante for Governor of Indiana; and J. K.

Many of tholr followers will undoubtedly act tn necvordanes with this prefereiuce, and yote for tho Republican candllate for Governor in Octo- ber and for Gen, Guriield In November. “Er will be Just asulracto if Tam elected,” entd tho Hon.

Frown present apperrinces [ft would seem that the Demoernta have givon up all hopes of earryluse tho State by fale means, thelr only hope now bulug that they can import enough rupwaters from Kentucky, Hlinois, and Mary lund to overcomy the Jegitinate Republican mas Jorlty. Even the Demueratte Campaign Com tnittes Is sald to be divided as to pow this fram shall bo perpetrated, Tho Republicuus exbibit phenomenal unity, and are working carnestly, vigorously, and hopefully.. Tho amulicst mujor- ity whieh they expect 18 6,000, and some aro sine gulne enough to count on from 10,000 to 15,000, Encouraytng reports continue to reach the hoadquartors at Indianapolis hourly. ‘The ttes publlean Oreenbuckers are fast renewing thelr alleginnee to tholr ofd party, and, with vigilanes, there {4 not the least rendon to doubt that Mr, anders will not be elected, miraculously or otherwise, in Uctubor, ed THE MAINE FUSION. The Maine fusion between the Greenback. ers and the Democrats, as ft stauds now, bs 0 very curlous political monstrosity. As the regular Creenbackers characterized It, itis both “fusion, and confusion,” . Tho Green- back Convention was pracileally run by the Fustouists, and an Electoral ticket was agreed upon whieh purports to represent four votes for Weaver and three votes for Mancock, Mut there wero seventy-three (ireentuekers in thy Convention who refused to‘subseribe to this barter of prinelples for a possible advantage. ‘There ig ne doubt that thoy represent 0 very large yotu among the regular Civeenbackersa, a8 the antlFusion strength in the regular Conyention was estl- inated to tnelude 140 delegates, ‘The bolters orgaulzed aseparate Convention and nominat- ed a regular Greenback Elvetoral tleket, But they put on thelr theket three of the nanes whieh represented the Greenbackers on the Fusion Eleetural tiekot—y Solon Chase, ‘Turner, and Whikiden, ‘Phe fourth Green- backer on tho Fusion ticket seems to have been dropped from the regular Greenback (leket, and probably because the regulur Greenbackers feared to trust him, Ag the cuso now-stands, there are three Electors who will get the entire Greenback Yote, and also the Democratls yote, If the Democrats ablde by the Fusion arrange- ment. But there are four Electors on the Fuslon tleket (three of them representing Maneuck) who will fall to reeelye ‘a large part of the Greenback vote, and also four Electors on the regular Cireenback tieket who will fall to recelve any part of the Dem- ocratic vote, If{t be assumed, then, that tha Greenbackers ant Democrats togetuer are In amajority In the State (whieh fs altogether improbable, and which even the State cloc- tlon did not reveal), then onty the three Creenback Electors who are on both the Fue stov and the antlFusion tleket ‘will be chosen, and fn any ease the Repubsleans will be suite to elect four Electors. ‘The most striking feature In the present ar- rangement In Maine between the Democrats and Greenbackers fs, that the former, after all theft intrigning In that State, have nbso- tutely shut themselves out from the smallest chanee of securing a single vote for Haneock, If the Republicans shail earry the State, as ts inost likely in any event, then, of course, all seven of the Electoral votes will go to Gar- field and Arthur. Dut even tf the Green: backers and Democrats combined shall prove to have a majority aver the Republicans, then only three Electors on the Fusion tleket would be chosen; they would not all vate for Weaver and Chambers, and Gartictd and Arthur would still reeelye four Electoral votes, There ean be no possible outcome of the present situation, therefore, that will give Ilancock and English a single Elector. The Democrats have humilated themselves and minde new enemies ‘throughout the country only to reach this lame and tmpotent conclu slon. It is most Ukely, however, that the reigning confusion will enable the Repub- Neans to etect thelr entire Electoral ticket by A good round majority SHALL THE POSTAL SERVICE BE DE- BTROYED? The men who are impressed with the de- mand fora change in the Government for the mere sike of change should. estimate the vonseqtiences and consider whether aehange for the mere sakeol change isa potiey which any sane ian or thoughtful man would think of making In his own affalre, ‘The present postal service of the United States is one of the grandest systems which rovermnental skill has ever framed, and ex- eceds anything of the kind In any other part of the world, considering the immense area of territory and the large dlstricts whieh are but sparsely populated. No part of the inany blessings of © government enjoyed by the Ameriean people is so universal in Its extent or is so highly valued as the postal system, Yet that system was stow In its growth... Like many other things, It was palsted by slavery. Daring the Democratic government of the United States the postal service was regarded as dangerous bo the institution of slavery, and, to protect slavery from “ineendlarism,” every Poestinaster wits authorized to open and destroy all printed matter which he might think hostile to slavery, and even to open letters and destroy them when he had reason to suspect they treated stayery In 8 hostile manner, In 1959, after the Demmoeratte party lil been for thirty years in almost continuous control of the Post-Ollice Department, the Democratic Vostmaster-General was forced to confess that it was a lamentable failure, and had lost public confidence. Here is what he salt concerning the results of thirty years’ Democratic administrations Naturnily cnough, auch an institution bns over been, and ‘still Is, & cherished favorit with the American p inralfested peoply. Tho country has constantly the most Intenso solleltude.for tho renervition of its. parity and the prosperity of ta udininistration, und i eannot pow be dis- guised that the zullty nbuse of its miniatrations und the reckless waste of its hird-enrned reves nues, connected with the humilattons to which It haw in consequence been exposed, buve deeply and sudly impressed the pubic mind. in 18st the Demucrats went out of power and tho postal service passed under the control of Northern men, who were busl- ness-men, wu who regarded the postal service to be ag essential to the Notlonal ox- istenee as fs the blood to the human system. at once there began lnprovements; the service’ was extended, enlarged, and im- proved; tho postal-ear, the free delivery, the money order, tho registry system, and the transpurtation of light meretundise have all during tho fast twenty years been put in suceessftal operation, reduelnyg the cost of tha service in proportion to the work per- formed humensely. We print this morning some extracts from a recent letter from Gen, Mazen, of the Department, giving In detail the history of the fimmense linproves ments ant enlargement of tho. service sinco It wag. taken from tho hands of the party which for thirty years had persistently treated It aga public enemy to be kept In subjection and Hmilted by every possible means, We luvite a careful reading of this Jetter, espeelnity by those who think It wise to try the experlment of rashly taking (iis most Important of all branches of the Government from the lands of its friends and conunitting it to the hands of those who have hitherto treated it asan evil to be al- ways kept in cheek. ‘The only “ finprovement” which the Dem- ocrats undertook during thelr long ndiinis- tration was theestablishnent of the “penny post” system in twelve of the principal elties, Unier this system the carrier was required to collect two cents for the dellyery of each letter, and, falling’ for any reason to recelye the two cents delivery fee, he varried the letter buck to tho Pos: Oillcs and kept it there. ‘Che fnprovement by the Republicans on this system was the abolition of the carrier's fee of two cents, and the adoption of the free delivery in eiushty- eluht elties, employhig 2,850 carriers, deliver- ing waninuually, free of cost, nearly 000,000,000 pivecs of mail matter at the residences of those to whom they are addressed, One of the first things established ns soun us the Democrats left the Department was the imoney-order system, by which qilllons of dollars in small sums are trans- tilted through the malls safely, This mnoney-order system is pronounced uncon. sututlonal by the Democratic party. It argues that the Nutlonal Government can exerelseé no powers not expressly granted to it by the Constitutlon, and. that the Constitu- tlon nowhere confers on the Government power to reeelye money on deposit and Issue negotiable paper therefor, and that the wholu money-urder system, as well as that which permits books and other articles of merchan- diss to be. transported through the malls, {3 n usurpation of power, and part of the Brand system which will reduce the country to the despotism of one grand centralized Government! A system uf registered Ictters was estab Mshed by a Democratic Postimuster-Genoral, but It was so opposed by Democratic sentl- ment that he eoniessed {tought to be aban doned; under Republican management that service now transports, as In 1870, money and valuables exceeding one thousand mille fons of dollars without the loss of n cent, Tho Post-Onlco now cartes gold and silver coln by the millions of dollars simually at tho mere rates of merchandise postage, ant without the Joas of a dollar, ‘Nhe Kepublican party instituted, and by force of persistent elfort Induced foreign countries to unite In, the International postal system, by whieh 4 letter mulled In any Post Omles tn the United States ean by carried nnd delivered at any, village or town In al- most any part of the clyiHzed world for the small fee of tye cents | ‘Tho Southern Democrats aro, as 9 class, opposed to the Post-Oflve Departinent, It is regarded now and ithaseverbeen regarded by them uss sortof aducational system, Hh fs connected In the minds of the ruling class ua 4 result of and an adjunct of the common: school system, and therefore untit for the tower social classes and dangerous ‘to the public Interest, ‘TheSouthern theory is now and has always been that there cau be but two classes In soclety,—those who govern and those who are to be governed; that pub- ie safety depends In keeping thls distinction a permanent one, and ho that educates and elevates the governed class thereby thrent- ens the supremacy of the governing class, This was conspicuously [lustrated’ by tho Indignant declaration of the South Carolina Senator who pointed out the superiority of Sonthern govern ment, where gentlemen educated to rite were alone admitted to role, while at the North the ruling power was exerelsed by the “ mndsills,” the men who labored fora Hy- ing. The postal service of the country Ian- gulshed for thirty years under Democratic rile because {twas an educational agent, and enabled the lower classes—tha mitdsilis— to enjoy the luxury of letters, and the free In- terchange of social, religious, and pollitleal thonght,—niatters whieh were dangerous to soclely unless Imited to those who belonged to the class born to govern, Once emancl- pated from thy thralldomin which ithad been sv long held under Democratic government, the postal service began that progress which is now shown inthe present magnificent sys- tem which challenges the adiniration of the world. : Let the nan. who thinks a “change” Is 2 matter of light concern, ask himself whether it Is advisable by one blow to destroy the whole achuinistration of that Department— to dismiss by nsingle order the thousands of men who have so Inboriously brought the gystem to fts present perfection, and have so faithfully and intelligently administered its affalrs, Would any sate man make such a radlval aud wholesale change in his own busl- ness? Why, then, vote to disturb, dissulve, demoralize, and break up so perfect a sy: tent, invelying so many Interests to every: family in the land, for the mere enke of change, and deliver this grand National establishment to the control of Its persistent enemies?

Every reader will pronounce this an unde- elded, retreating dispateh, with nothing bold, positive, ageressive, or combative about tt. A few minutes after he wrote and dis- patehed this timorous, indecisive, bralntess nissive, Gen, Slocum came up. very fortu- nately, and, outranking Jfancock, took com- mand. He saw at a glance that was Just the Rrount on which to make a final stand, ant so ndvised Gen. Mende, Hancock wad sent back to Mende, and the latter ordered Han- eovk to mareh lis men as fast as possible to the ground selected by Howard ana Slocum, and there fight them, * + Buty” say the worahiporsof the “superb” swenrer, “if Inncuck did not select the bat- tle-fleld it was his fighting that won it” On the contrary, he almost threw away the bat- tle by lis thick-headed blundering, He in- sisted on firing off nll the ammunition of tho, reserve artillery at the wrong thine. - He did waste half of It, and quarrefed: with’Gen, Hunt, Chief of Artillery, for not wasting the remainder, Tho facts all came out in an Investigation by Gen, Burnslite’s Comuit- tee on reorganizing the army. (Wo else. where print the substance of what was shown.) Tho Reb 1. Lee's plin was to open a furious and concentrated artillery fire ou the Union centre,—keeplng his own Infant- ry far enough back to be.out uf range of the Union return fire, Leo hoped tu draw tho fire of the Union batteries, and when they had extinusted their ammiunjiton in replying to hls artillery (whieh rained Its shot and shell on the heads of the Unton infantry), then the Rebel Infantry were to make a grand charge on ovr broken, donbly-decimated, torn, and demoralized centre, and come to close quarters with It on the double-quick, break through its weakened Ines, .roll up a wing, and rout the Union army. This was on old Napoleonic trick or method often successfully practiced by that master of military sclonee, But to be successful In the Gettysburg battle it was necessary that the Unton artillery ammunttion should be exhausted before the grand charge of the Rebels was made, and Haneock did all in his power toexhaust it, Ie did throw away all the ammunition of Gen, Hnzard’s guns, and tried desperately to waste that of Met vary’s guns, snd quarreled with thot oflcer for refusing to obey his thick-headed, reek tess orders to tire off att his shot and shell before the Rebel infantry ehurge was delve ered, and he Kicked up a row with Gen, Ilunt, Chief of Artillery, for ordering the fire to be held back to the critical moment, We ask every old soldier to read the report. of the controversy between Nancoek and Hunt, published elsewhere In Tue ‘Pines, In regard to that Gettysburg battle, and then let him say how much of the honor of wine ning It belongs to Huneock; he will plainly seo that the blundering of Hancock would have lost the fight If lis orders had beon obeyed, MORE POLLING-PLACES NEEDED. ‘Tus Tripunk published yesterday morn- Ing a report of a discussion by the members of the Union Lengue Chub of the advisability of Inereasing the number of polling-places Tor the approuching election, Although report was submitted bristling with argue ments in favor of an increase In the number, the Club almost unanimously voted that any largo addition would bo unadvisnble at tho present tine, ‘This discussion, while interesting, would hot have been Important had it not been for the presence at tho meeting of four County Comnissloners, who are also members of the Club, Stace it Is the County Board that fixes the number of polling-placesy—a duly which Ib will have to perform within a few days,— their presence at the meeting and apparent acqulescence In its concluslons goes to ine dicnte that thelr votes ut least will be enst agalust granting to the yoters of Chieage facilides whieh they need, tg which they are entitled, but which have fur years been dented then. b ‘The eclty: menjbers of the County Board, nearly all of whom havo ‘for years taken an active part In polities, cannot have forgotten the election of 187d, At that thine, owing to the exeltement Jncklent toa National elec- tion, a comparatively heavy vote was canst, though amuch Jarger one would have been polled had adequate fuellities been furnished, The Conuulssloners must remember seelng at many of the polling-places hi the Ameri- enfl wards ag carly ns V o'clock {n the morne Inga Hue of voters the length of a block waltlng patiently or Inpatiently tn the raw, ehilly alr sayeral ours for au opportunity to vote, ‘They must have seen the slow and tiresome progress of a voter from "the foot (to the hend of the long Hne,—progress “slow under any elrenn- stances, but greatly Increased by reason of constant challenges, ‘Chey must haye seen, if they pald any attention to It, how, in many cases, It took'a person from 9 in the morning until 3 or 8 ih the afternoon to cust his bal- lot. They must have heard, If they did not Know it from personal experience, of count- Jeas cases of sleknesy duo to the exposure In volved by standing out in the cold jn that long Hne during the weury hours ofa raw November- day. They must have notleed that, at numbersof precincts fu the Republic- ou wards, from sixty to 100 voters were de barred the privilege which belongs to them by the polls closlug before they could reach tho window,—-most of thom Republican voters. ‘They must haye seen In the Repub- Mean wards In which they Ilve tundreds of vutera of thelr own party turned away from the polls without trying to vote, beenuse they were business-men who could not spare the waste of hours, or because they were nged and infirm and could not ron the risk of alckiness. They must have scun hundreds of Republican mechanics and workingmen tunable to get in thelr votes because of the tromendous pressure at the polls between the hour of closing and the thme when these voters wero able to reach there after thelr dlay’s work was over. In the Second Ward the Republican ‘party must have lost 200 yotes through the paucity of polling-places; In the Fourth ff must have lost over 699, and in the Twelfth fully that number, The grent- S percentage of loss was on the Republican side, While the County Board was controlied by the Democracy from 1874 on, the number of polling-places 1n Democratic wards was steadily and disproportionately inerensed, while tho Republican ones were stupidly al- lowed ‘to remain as they were, ‘The result was, that in isi the Demo- ernts liad) far superior facilities for voting than the Republicans, The best proof of this is the figures. In sixty-two preeinets giving Tilden a majority the av- erage vote per precinct was OL. In thirty- two precinets glying Hayes a majority the Average was 80. ‘The Democrats then cast nearly 200 votes per precinct below the ay- erage of the Republican vreeinets, ‘To this diserimiuation, brought about by years of Democratic rule fu the County Board, was due the loss of thousands of Republican votes which would have been cnst for the Republican ticket In 1876 lind there been a legal opportunity to put them in the boxes. Sineo that time the County Board has passed Into the hands of the Repubiteans, and, year after year, slight additions have been made tothe nuinber of polling-plices, until there are now 119, 03 against ninety-four in 18705 but the discrepancy in favor of the Demo- cratic wards still remalns, {tis high thne to correct it. Enormous harm was done the Republicans in the Re- publican wards by the lack of polling-places, Many thousand Republicans had such diya- greeable exporienes on that chilly November day that they have never since attempted to vote, not caring to encounter tho same dls- comfort and delay. inN. STONE was one of McClellan's bri- gade commanders, ant in that capacity was made the seapegont of the blunder at Ball’s Blut, ‘The military critic who is now re- viewing McClellan's campaign for the Cin- elnnat) Gazette brings forward documents and testimony to show that McClellan alone was responsible for that battle. After hls arrest and discharge from custody, Gen.

McClellan openly. But this snerifice was not suficient for McClellan. ‘The evidence shows that he caused the arrest of Stone on atrumped-tp charge of eom- munlcating with tho enemy, and had him confined in Fort Lafayette for seven months. No charges were formally preferred neainst hin.
