_ CABLE NEWS From All Parts of the Old World THE EASTERN INCUBUS. Not So Pacific an Outlook as on Yesterday. WAR OR STOCKJOBBING? Russia Said To Have Sent an Ultimatum to Turkey. FORTY-EIGHT HOURS OF SUSPENSE. Lospos, Nov, 1, 1876. Tho news is very confiieting from the East this The danger 01 placing too much confidence \m the alarming report trom Si. Petersburg neod not be dwelt upon, There has long been a disposition in the money centres of the Continent to make the Rews which would produce a desired effeet upon the Stock market, and to trust to events for Bjustifcation, Therefore the alarm is not excessive In Lonaon this morning over the statement that Russia bas issued an ultimatum, This pronunciamemio may besummed up in the words:—“War within lorty- sight hours, unless Torkey crawis."” A great deal of such talk has been heard during the past. few days Several_—_prominent men in the Stock Exchange wero found to be most unaccountably ‘short’? of all stocks when the Fecent panic burst upon the city. This has made sus- picious men cautious, They naturally wonder whether there will be another change in the staff of a promi- went London journal, or whether its irantic and hu- wiligting appeal to Bismarck for assistance was based upon any real and secret information regarding Russia's purposes, AWAITING CONFIRMATION. These facts do not render the news any tho less Startling. So unshaken, however, is my faith in the special despatch forwarded by the Hsraup’s corre- spondent in Constantinople, declaring that the Sultan has signed the Russian propo- Bitton, that I cannot forbear to give the caution at the same time that J send the intelligence. A more gloomy feeling preva’ in Ber- Un, although all the diplomatists confirin the action of the Sultan, as announced by the HeRa.p yesterday. Indeed, go Ormly seated is the hope of peace that the Post of this morning dectares that it has reason to bo- love that only yesterday, subsequent to the issue of tbe new Russian instructions, important peaceful telegrams were received from the principals con- terned in the negotiations. It hopes, notwihstanding eppearances, that General Ignatieff has not reverted to the original demand fora bare six wocks’ armistice, whieh would only snatch the fruits of victory from Turkey and enable the Russians and Servians to poter upon a winter campaign. If conditions possible of acceptance are offered we may feel certain the Porte Will accept them. A few hours will show whether Rus- Bia means war. CONFLICTING STATEMENTS, The curious feature about the news this morn- Img is that all the London papers accept the Statements § regarding Russia's ultimatum and at the same time confirms the statement made by the Hxratp yesterday. Ono statement must be untrue, Tho Times perhaps presents the most curious cxample in this respect. It is sure to have ‘deen right im cither event Its Paris letter this morn- ing say It is announced this evening that, before tho expiration of forty-eight hours the conclusion of an armistice will be officially notified. A despatch to the Russian Telegrapnic Agency, dated St. Petersburg, vetober 31, 8:20 P. M., stigmatizes as bad faith the pushing of military operations by the Turkish govern- ment while vegotiations are pending, and says it is this sonduct that bas compelled Russia to have recourse to pompulsion.” DIPLOMATIC Waltu. It is an established fact that before these Martling rumors about the Russian ultimatum had = beem = made public ell the Ambassa f@ors at .Constantinople telegraphed on Monday to their governments that the armistice was secured. {tis believed in official quarters that Russta, In con- Bequence of the sudden advance of the Turks, no longer wishes to havo the line of demarcation vetweon the contending parties during the armistice fixed by the positions they mignt hold-at the beginning of the armistive, and that she, thereiore, bas taken this sudijen+ stop. There is no valid teason for supposing that the Porto did resixt the Russian ultimatum and refuse the armistice. Its consent to the latter was expected tvery moment before the reported ultimatum was an- Bounced. it now remainsto be seen how tar Rus- tiv’s conciliatory attitude in regard to a conference will be affected by the incident of the ultimatum Furthermore, it is stated on excellent authority that the Sultan, in order to give proof of his liberal senti- ments, has finally detormined to make Midbat Pacha Grand Vizier shortly. THE NERALD NIGHT. A despatch to the Daily Telegraph, dated Constanti- aople, Tuesday evening, asserts that an armistice for two months has be igned. The Times, in ite lead- ing editorial, regards the situation as very favorable, ‘snd does not think It conceivable that the Porte will resist the Russian demands. PROGRESS OF THE IXSURRECTION. General Tchernayeff bas abandoned the defenco of Krujevatz and ordered Horvatovitch to tall back Shither and then move down the valley of the Morava Yo Stolatz,, where the two parties of army will be reunited. The army will t Probably fall back on Chuprija, Paratchin is being hastily fortified Vari- pus correspondents confirm the report tbat the Turks bave entered Alexinatz, A ramor of the intended ab- (ication of Prince Milan ts reported from Paratehin. MORE TALK OF A CONPERESCR. A special from Peath says that a Conference has beon resolved upon. The members will be the Ambas- sadors of the six Powers. The sole object will be the pacification of tho three insurgent provinces, Russia renourcing the idea of thoir political aatonomy and Deing satisfied with the seli-administration defined by England. AN ULTIMATUM THAT READS 1IKE A CANARD, ‘The Official Gazctte of St. Petersburg nunounced yes- terday afternoon that ‘General Ignatieff, the Russian- Ambassador at Constantinople, has been. instructed to femand the Porte’s acceptance, within forty-eight Yours, ofan armistice aod suspension of hostilities, dtherwiso diplomatic relations between Russia and Lurkey will be broken off, and Genoral Ignatieff, with jhe whole personnel ot the embassy, will loave Con- wtantinople.”” The Politicat Correspondence (news- paper), of Vienna, publishes telegram from st, Petersourg stating that the order to General Ignatieff to present Russta’s ultimatum to the lorte was de- patched by the Czar direct to Constantinople Monday evoning, ana that the Czar was induced to jake this step by recent events in Servia, and Turkey's vont the war notwithstanding tne negotiations pending for an armistice, Le Nord, of Brusscls, hopes Ihe European Powers will support Rus: demand, snd that the armistice will be signed; but adds thas the Porte’s dilatory tactics do not facilitat efinitive pacification, and will force the Powors to redouble their firmess and energy on the question of guaran- bes GLADSTONE IN RUSSIA ‘The Contemporary Review covtains a paper by Mr Gladstone reviewing Mr. Kugene Schayler’s book on forkestan, Extracts from this book have been maca quoted here, by the pro-Turkish portion of the press, joshow that the Russians have been guilty of bar- parities equal to those charged againes the Turks, and the subjoct bas excited great interest, Tho tendency of Mr. Giadstone’s article is to demonstrate that Behuy.er’s work is fair and impartial.

Minjster Ristics, in conversation to-day, declared that Djunis was not Servia, and that the government were determined to resist to the last, even though abandoned by all Europe. He attributed the fall of Djunis to the reinforcement of twenty battalions and eighteen beavy siege guns received by the Turks from Nisch. He said the Turks bad been further reinforced by Dervish Pacha’s army, which arrivea before Javor frem the Montenegrin frontier. Prince Milan has ar- rived at Paraschin, Tchernayef’s army is at Doligrad and Horvatovitch’s command is haif way between Djunis and Kujevatz, Reuter’s despatch, dated Constantinople, to-night, states that a Cabinet Council was beld to-day and the Ambaseadors met at General Iynatief's residence Ac- cording to reports current this evening there 18 still some disagreement relative to the details of the armis- tee. An order was read in the streets of Belgrade through. out yesterday calling on all able-bodied mon to report themscives for immedi: service, The Turks lack transportation, and can, therefore, advance only slowly. Itis rumored that Italy and Austria have offered mediation. THE POSITION OF GERMANY. The dissatisfaction of the press in France, Austria and England regarding the speech of the Emperor William at the opening of the Reichstag !s plainly | spoke! The French Journ accept it as a direct monace to France. The Vienna newspapers find in its language a gure Indication of the threatened dis- ruption of tho triple cliliance. The Times, if jt speaks English sentiment any longer, does not hesitute to ascribe unusual importance to the Emperor's language. “It is !mportant to observe,” says the leading article, ‘‘that we have notice that Germany abides and will abide by its alliance with Russia, and though it will struggle to keep on good terms with the other Powers, the government of the Emperor’s nephew and friend will romain most closely knit with the government at Berlin,’” RUSSIA AND SERVIA. The Russian officers are reported to have shot several | Servian soldiers on Sunday in their endeavors to cheek the stampede at Djunis. The dread of the Ser- | vians for their Russian allies has become intense, Intelligence received at St. Petersburg trom Belgrade states that Princo biilan’s departure thence for the army has given rise toaconflict between the Servian civil and military authorities. The Turks are mareb- | ing upon Kruschovatz, and General Tchernayoff is operating with the object of covering that place.

Counsel tor the defence gave notice of appeal, pending which Slade's previous bail was accepted.

Now that the peace of Europe is trembling in the balanco, it seems almost laughable to bear that there 1s to be another session of the Association for the Re- form and Codification of the Laws of Nations at Ant- werp on August 21, 1877, The usual throng of aged lawyers from the Temple and Gray’s Inu wiil be pres- ent, and a sample of the samo burgomaster who figures in “Genevieve do Brabant’? will recolve the association at the gates of Antwerp.

General Hazen will go to that point at omce with four compantos of infantry and one piece of artillery, by steamer Penniah, with rations for Miles, who seems to be following up the Indians. General Hazen believes this Indiau troable can be closed now by vigorous work, but regards cavalry as indispensable, SITTING BULL'S PROPOSITION. Sitting Bull crosse¢ the river halt way between Fort Peck and Wolf Point. On the 24th he sent word to have ammunition; that they could not live without it.

Pool Selling and Private Wagers on the Presidential Election, SPECULATION NORTH AND SOUTH. No Decided Indication—Tilden Slightly the Favorite, ns ‘That the betting men judge closely, when consider- ing the chances of the respective candidates for the Presidency, there canbe no question ‘Put up or shut up” has already become one of the catch phrases ; of the present campaign, and it 18 a fact that whenever partwans began to dispute about candidates or the success of tickets money was almost invariably brought forward asa clincher to tho argument, Bets of every kind and deseription have already been made and the range of wager has been run trom the highest to tho lowest limit. Many a man bas wagered according to his prejudice or sympathy, but it has been reserved for the professional better to fix the Standard of the rival candidates for the Presidential chair, Pool betting has been rife for weeks in nearly every city in the Union, aud the close calculation of chances has been made a mut- ter of science, Men who seok to win money by bets are ulways cautious in their investments, and as this class ‘of gamestera have entered so largely nd cagerty into the possibilities of the campiign, their movements will give a pretty clear idea of the probable success or defeat of the rival parties, In order to aflord the readers of the Hxratp an tndica- tion of the popular feeling in the leading cities of the !

BETTING IN NRW YORK, ‘As the 7th of November, with its great story, ap- proaches, speculation rapidly imcreases, and betting + on the result becomes more excited. Tho pool rooms { are nightly crowded with an eagor throng, including ready backers of the candidates of both partios, Bet- ting was very spirited Inst evening, ani almost any reasonable proposition met with @ prompt response, Following are specimen pools sold at the different rooms:— AT MORRISSEY’S.

It is generally recognized that New York is head- quarters and authority on this and kindred matters, and tho selected favorites of the sporting men in that metropolis will to a considerable extent guido the Bos- tonians in risking their surplus greenbacks ou the chances of the rival candidates tor tho Presidency. In the principal hotels, notably the Parker House, the political situation is vhe chief topic discussed, and the Indications thus far have been that if pools were on sale Hayes would be largely the favorite, and yet there would also be plenty who would take Tilden if reason- abie odds were offered. While it may be true that Hayes will be the favorite in the pool scllicg at first it is also equally true that there are many shrewd politicians, men of experience and observation, who do not hesitate to declare that the tide 1s rapialy changing in favor of Tilden. Among those whose judgment 18 in this direction may be men- toned General Butler, who declared in the presence of your correspondent the otber evening that the elec- tion of Hayes isa matter of vory considerable uncer- tainty. Another gentleman whose judgment is entitled to respect is Frank B. Sanborn, of the Springfeld Re- publican, who looks upon Tild: election as a cer- tainty and also expresses faith im the olection of Charles Francis Adams, as Governor of Mas- sachusetts, In the Seventh Congressional district bets ot two and three to ono on the election of Butler over Hoar and Tarbox are freely offered, In the Sixth district even bets on the election of Thomson (dem.) over Dr. Loring, the republican candidate, find few or no taker’. in the Charlestown and Navy Yard district the chances of Mr. Frothingham (dem.) are regarded by sporting men as superior to General Banks’, Up in the Springfeld district there are even bets on Chapin and Robinson, and it is only in these localities mentioned that the election of a republican Congress- man seems at least doubiful from present indications THE BETTING IN PHILADELPHIA—A CHANGE IN FAVOR OF TILDEN-—-THS LATEST BETTING IN SEVERAL EASTERN 8TATES. Paitapepenia, Oct, 31, 1876. In the pool selling im this city on the results of tho i Presidential election there has been a gradual but steady and unvarying change in favor of Tilden since | the Octobor elections in the West. At that time Hayes was the favorite by Jong odds, but Tilden begun slowly creeping upon him, and a week ago, when Hayes sold for $100 at tho International Exchange this city Tilden brought $95. At the latest sa which took Place this evening at the International the following were the tigures:— On the geveral resalt—Tilaon, $100; Hayes, $80, On the result in New York city and State—Tilden, $100; Hayes, $40.

The greatest amount of money at stake on the political issues of Tuesday next ts on Now York State going democratic. Tilden men wager odds freely on the Empire State going strong for “Sammy” and do not hesitate to givo odds, 100 10.60 and 60.

These were as follows:—Thirty-five dollars vo $25 thas Tildem carries Indiana as against Hayes, and $25 to $16 that Tilden carries New Jersey. Nothing was 4 general result of Presidential election, but the feeling is indicated by the sale of one pool iast night, in which the odds of 25 to 20 were wagered upon Tilden. Private betting is not reliable or quota- ble. In fact, the disposition is to wait until within two or three days of the election, when it is thought pool selling will become lively, NO POOL SELLING AT BALTIMORE Baxtivorn, Oct 31, 1876 The pool selling on the election has been prohibited by the Board of Police, No more will be sold.

LOUIS—THE LARGE REGISTRATION IN NEW YORK AND BROOKLIN REGARDED 8 FAVORABLE TO THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES, 8. Lovie, Oct. 31, 1876, Careful inquiry shows that there has been very little betting so far in St Louis on tho general resulk A great many small bets have becn made, not ranging above $100. These aro even on Hayes and Tilden. Tilden has grown perceptibly in favor during the last tew days, and his backers are much more anxious to Det than those of Hayes, though not offering odds. A few $1,000 bets have been made even. A responsible offor of $1,000 on Hayes hag been allowed to stand in one of the morning dailics for five davs without a taker, though similar bets have been taken during that time among other parties. Two weeks ago the betting was decidedly in favor of Hayes, but the im- mense registration in New York and Brooklyn, and the appearance of Tilden’s recent letter, hus turned the current to him. The betting on the result in New York State ts mueh more lively than on tho Presidcn- tial result, A bet of $500 to $300 that Tilden will carry the State was made to-night. This may be regarded as the usual percentage allowed, A tew even bets are being made, but the instances are rare. Thero is one even bet of $15,000 om the result in Now York State made just afterthe St. Louis Convention. NO POOL SELLING IN IDLINOIS—TILDSN THE FAVORITE IM PRIVATE BETTING. Curcago, Oct. $1, 1876.

Ricrwoxp, Oct. 31, 1876, Soon after tho Indiana election, and when the result was not definitely known, republicans bere freely offered to bet even that Hayos would carry New York aud two to one that he would be clected President. Since that time they bavo been steadily weakoning and few of thom are willing to bet at all, The reports from Morrissey’s pool sales control the politicians here in placing their money, 6o it is seen that 100 to 40 is bet that Tilden will carry New York. ‘There is no great amount of money upon the general result, Notsher sido shows any disposition to hazara much. ‘the republicans aro moro disposed to stake their money on Hayes being President than the democrats on Tilden,though nearly all the moneyed menare for the latter. One large Hayes better is known to be hedging, and that causes comment and distrast among those who b. I along followed his leadership and depended upon his judgment. There are a good many even bers on Indiana, and some on Til_ den’s majority in Virginia, the democrats gladly taking up all who offer to bet that Tilden’s majority will not be 20,000. Few ofthe bets aro large, but big ana small there were nover at any one time more men tn Virginia pecumiarily interested in an elcetion. INDIANA. How Will the Hoosier State Vote | in November? GOVERNOR HENDRICKS IN ANSWER Views of a Prominent Repub lican Politician. A VICTORY FOR HAYES PRESAGED Opinions of a Liberal Republican Sand- wiched Between. j Ea Isprayaronis, Oct. 26, 1876. While it was generally conceded during tne recent contest in this State that the decision of the guberna. | torial question would constitute a practical determina. | tion of the election here in November some difference | of opinion bas since arisen concerning !t, In order to | get at the present views on both sides on this tinpor- tant point your correspondent recentty called on repre- sentatives of both partics, opening the tuterrogative campaign with that eminent statesman whom bis friends confidently hope will be the next Vice President of the United States, After the usual courtesies the fol- lowing conversation ensued:— } VIEWS OF GOVERNOR HENDRICKS. “Governor, what do you think the Western October elections presage ?”’ usked your correspondent : “Certainly a November victory lor the democratic party,” responded the Governor. “You see tho peo ple Lave fears that all promises of reform mad persistently by tho republican manngers are unsup- ported by the record and ounnot be fullilled.’” “What will be the vote of Indiana in November?” “T think at least 10,000 for Tilden. The election of Mr. Williams to the Governorsbip has in itself popu- larized the domocracy and paralyzed the republicans. Thousands of mea who bave heretofore wavered will now openly attach thomselves to the winning side This {s natural.” “What will the mass of the Germans do in Novem- ber?” “A much larger proportion of them will voto for | Tilden than for Williams, The Germans are deter- mined to support the party of reiorm, They have a high idea ot Governor Tilden’s honesty, as shown by his splendid record; and they don’t like the record of Governor Hayes in connection with the ‘Native Amer- foan Alliance’ business.” “Governor, you have been to Illinots, I see, since the October election. What opinion do you form ot the status of parties there and the probabilities?” “The democracy of Illinois were never more hopeful. While victory for the party of reform there would seem, from past republican majorities, a result diMcult to obtain, yet, looking to the vast changes irequently transpiring ip, tor example, New York and other arge and populous Commonwealihs, it would and should not be surprising if liluois cast its baliot for the democ- by ten, twenty or thirty thousand.” “Phen you really believe, from your observations in that State, that Tilden has large possibilities there in November?” “Yes, sir, and even probabilities,” “and I understand you to express the opinion that the success of the Blue Jeans State ticket on the 10th inst. in Indiana augments the jocratic and reform probabilities in_ the country large and augurs the election of Mr. Tilden and yourself next month to the Presideney anu Vice Presidency. To what peculiar in- fluences: acuing on public eentiment do you ascribe this wugury ?” “Weil,” anid the Governor, ‘as 1 observed before, partly to that potent organizer of party invinetvil- ity, the tide that turus to the winning side; partly what it indicates to other populations that had the wish but not the courage to break trom the intremched party in power, though aware of its manifold corrup- tions, You see, our suceess in Indiana being a victory of the people ovor oficial corruption intrenched tu the Tespectabiitty of power, behind which and within ne which, under attractive and patriotc disguises, the | great rings operated, has inspired and given courage to the weak-kmeed everywhere. ibis will tell the strongest im the November election as due to our Indi- ana victory, The administration forces were superbly mobilized and ably commanded, and nothing was lett undoue; oven Kilpatrick's “bloody shirt and money’? request was complied with, and the “poor and needy” independents were betrayed by their candidate tor Governor and their State Central Committce Chairman in the hepe of adding largely to administration ascendancy. But for this action of their chief mem doubtless 10,000 men who voted for General Harrison would have voted the independont ticket, thus giving Williams nearer 20,000 than 10,000 majority.’” “that you aro “*L perceive, Governor,” I remarked, very sanguine of success in Novembei “Enurely 60, basing my hopes on what looks to me to be a solid foundation, " RX-GOVERNOR BROWN'S VIEWS OF THE PRESI- DENTIAL CAMPAIGN—-RESULT OF HIS OBSER- VATIONS FROM COLORADO TO PHILADELPHIA. ATLANTA, Ga, Oct, 31, 1876, Ex-Governor Joseph E. Brown, universally ac- knowledged the most sagacious political observer in the South, has just returned from a three months’ tour through tho North, extending from Colorado to Phila- delphia, and he has had anusual opportunity for catching the drift of opinion, and says that he has | little doubt that Tilden will carry the country. He says that Hayes would probably have been elected, despite the October elcetions, had Grant issued | his South Carolina proclamation. He feels con- fident that the alarm and indigmation created among thinking republicans by that dangerous usurpation has thrown the balanee of chances Tilden’s favor. He feels sure that the country will not permit so mon- strous @ asurpation to go unrebuked. He says that | Tilden’s admirable letter on Southern claims has removed the most serious obstacle in his way te the White House.

ATLanta, Ga., Oct, 31, 1876, Senator Gordon, who has just returned from Charles- ton, 8, 0., where he spoke om tho Hampton day, predicts that the democrats will carry tho State ov whelmingly. He thinks there is vo moro certain State in tho South for Tilden than South Carolina, The negroes will vote the democratic ticket by thousands in all sections of the State. The negro Hampton clubs aro quite as enthusiastic as the whito clubs. ‘he Senator reports that the cari in which ho and | Hampton wore ridizg through the streets was stopped | again and agam by nogroos, who crowded around it | that they might shake bands with tne great conserva. tive leader, The Senator is quite emphatic in bis as- sertion that tho State will go democratic beyond doubt, THE BETTING AT NEW ORLEANS.

GUILTY OF MANSLAUGHTER, Wasninatox, Oct, 31, 1876, ‘The jury in the case of Charies Strovel, who was tried for killing William Allman by catting bis abdo_ men with a knife on the 29th of June last, to-day ro- ‘arned a verdict of guilty of mansiacghter, The conversation at this point branched off upon other subjcet i goon aftor closed. I next sought out the Hon. E B. Martindale, whose Prominence tor many years in Indiana public affairs and position as tue chairman of the Republican State Convention last February and proprietor of the Datly Journal, the State organ of the republican party, gives ‘exceptional interest to his opinions, As he is a genu- ine partisan, of course his views bear their appropri- ate share of partisan bias, but his judgment, from a ropublican standpoint, is unimpeachable, KR. B, MARTINDALE’S VIEWS. In answer to my general inquiries for his views on the results of the late campaiga and the: pending Presidential race Judge Martindale gi bis opinions in a continuous statement, as follows :— “Tne result 1m Iudiana cannot be safely counted on yy the democracy as an indication of their suceess in ember. Biue Jeans Williams was a granger apd an avowed Inflationist, The people of Indiana are be- bind all the other Western States in their willingness to resume specie payments, and in both the Cincin- nati and St. Louis conventions found themselves badly out of time, and they will be fo in the Novem- ber elections, The grangers and tho greenback men wno voted for Williams Hendricks, and ¢ probability is that Hayes will carry the State by a small majority, While tho intelligent republicans 1p Indiana feel deeply mortiticd at ube result of th election, yet their contl- donee ts not \d there 18 searcely a doubt in that Hayes and Wheeler will be ¢ they wilicarry Indiana aod eve: one of the Northern Staws. Tne people of the North vote differentiy in a national contest trom what they do in State elections, where (in the latter case) they | are largely influenced by local issues,"” From this firm and forcible supporter of partisan re- pubiicamem 1 turned to the field of iiberal re. pubbeasism to get at the true inwardness of the situation from that sort of signal station. I mado @ visit to the office of Hon, John A. Finch, in one of the many splendid blocks here bearing the name of tho proprictor im the possessive case. Mr. Finch is a law- yer of good standing, who has gained more thana State celebrity by his exposition of growing evils In the vast business of life insurance. In the Greeley campaign of 1872 he was chairman of the Liberal Ke- ublican State Committee, In our conversation Mr. finch clearly and succinctly exposed his views ta the following bricf analysis and statement, fle said:— VIRWS OF A LIBERAL. “Tt seemed to be understood before the October elcc- tions that Indiana should decide the contest. Cer. tainly the battle was fought here as desperately as If the [ate of the world depended on it, The demo- cratic majority in Indinoa is almost a clear democratic gain of that much. The repudlican ma- fority in Ohio ts a republican loss of more than 10,000, Bach calculation is made by comparison with 1872. If these October e! jous show anything at all of tne fecling of the country it is that a cha demanded from the atmosphere of Butlerisin that prevaits at | Washington to something better. The military rule ts except as & party necessity, and as country. Tue October country will place upon Mr, Tilden, personally, the duty and responsibility of ‘ new government, of re-ertablishing w for the rule of the bayonet, 14 will a party triamph as a personal triumph to Mr. Tilden. He will have a work to do second to no civil work ever !mposed on aman, Ind will show her belof in him by & majority ot 10,000 to 15,000, Of this l feel confident.” At the time Hon. George W. Julian openly gave in bis adhesion to the canse of Mr. Til 19 a logical and toreible address in the Grand Opera House in this city in the early part of the campat Mr. Finch also announced in a brief epeech his full and hearty support of Tilden and Hen- dricks, FIRE-DAMP EXPLOSION, PorraviLus, Pa, Oct. 31, 1876. 1 not all vote for Tilden and i An explosion of fire-damp oceurred last night in the Wadeevitle colliery, near.

UNPRECEDENTED RAINFALL IN KENTUCKY. Lovisvitie, Oct. 31, 1876. The New Albany Ledger-Standard’s correspondent at Orleans, Orange county, on the iine of the Louisville, New Albany and Chicago Railway, sends the following particulars of a fearful rain storm which took place im that region :—Jt commenced on Saturday morning and continved until nearly daylight Monday morning. The rain was a perfect flood of water, not pouring down, a8 usual, in drops, but in perfect sheets, The | volume of water on the ground was so great that 1 resembled a lake, Inthe town tt rose as high as the window tops, and as yet has fallen but little, In addition to the destruction of household good: barns, stables, &e., large iots of cattle, borses an hogs were drowned. At the present time {t is tmpossible to compute the damage which tne flood has occasioned, but it wid probably amount to $100,000, MIDNIGHT WEATHER REPORT. “Wan Devartwrst, Urwice oF THe Corer SiGNat Orricsr, Wasnixetos, Nov. 1-1 A.
