The EtKCTiox on Tuesday Next.
Tucsdy ncx will decide the destiny of the
nation, for the next four years to conic. Ev
ery freeman should Uiko into consideration
that hi individual ballot is of the utmost
importance on the. comitiR occasion, ns it
will seal the decision given on the 8th of
October last. But a few days remain for
final action. The work is not all done
nothing should be left to fortuitous happen
ings. The successes in October were the
fruits of hard work wisely directed, and vi
gorously prosecuted. The Republican par
ty is less indebted to political accident, as
it is sometimes termed, than any party that
has wielded power iu this country. There
fore its victories have been exceptionally
substantial and its triumphs lasting.. Pro
digious as the folly of the Democracy has
been, the Republican party is not indebted
to that (or a single victory. Egrcgiously as
the Democracy have blundered, their blun
ders have only incidentally profiled the
Republican party.
The Republican party cannot afford to
depend upon past successes. It owes every
thing to unremitting labor, and upon that
sturdy creditor it must conltmie to depend.
It is not necessary to go back to the begin
ning of the Octobar campaign and fight it
all over again. That work was well done.
It is only necessary now to take up the
work and carry it on. The work of organ
izing is over and the organization must
now be energized and directed. There is
no time for elaborate discussions of the is
sues of the day, and if there were, it would
not be necessary. That part of the work
was thoroughly dono weeks ago. The
work of converting men, for this year, is
over. Rut it is all-important that Repub
licans work together, and wotk with a will,
until the polls close on the night of the 5th
of November.
While we da uot regard the party iti a.
condition of apathy, or even subject to the
reaction of overwork, wo cannot omit to
warn the sanguine that there is danger iu
over-confidence. The opposition is beaten,
jjooiiragcd, and sullen. But the Demo
cracy have not abandoned the field. TJmUsr
the monotonous sunshiuo "f Mr, Greeley's
arithmetic even, the leaders do uot wait or
work iu hope. They do not expect to
win ; but as that party is a parly whose
victories have been rather fortuitous than
compelled, some among thorn live in a sort
of expectancy that the old run of Demo
cratic luck may set in about the 5th of No
vember. Others, wiser, only work to avert
annihilation, Tho dreamers, the disciples
of luck, may be left to dream their dreams ;
but these wiser ones, who arc now casting
about for safe anchorage when tho Novem
ber storm shall catch the Democratic ship
on a lee shore these are worth combating.
There is no hope for that party except iu
a thorough disintegration of its ograuiza
tion. It has outlived its usefulness as a
check to its powerful antagonist. The two
great parties in a Republic should not be
so utterly divided on all great questions af
fecting tho common weal. A party which
devotes its energies to pulling dowu, exclu
sive, is uot fit to live. Under the directiou
of soured and disappointed men tho Demo
cratic party is committed to a destructive
policy beyond withdrawal. It blindly casts
about to see how best it may undo what
has beeu dune, but never proposes to sub
stitute anything iu the place of that which
it burns to destroy. Evcu us a minority
party it is dangerous. It uims to combine
all the destructive elements of society, aud
wield tho combination as a certain power
in au emergeucy. Tho duty of Republi
cans, whose policy it is to build up, lies in
wiping out the opposition as a party. They
will never have an opponent worthy of
their steel uuless they unhorse tho men
who now control tho Democratic party.
They have committed an act of supreme
folly this year, and their unseating is ren
dered easy. There should be a grand rally
of our forces everywhere, that these, the
last days of ihe to be memorable campaign of
1872 may be filled with labor, aud made, if
possible., more glorious than those 18U8.
Grant's Self-Resi'ect. President
Grant has borne himself throughout the
Presidential canvass in such a manner as
to greatly increase the high respect iu which
ho was already held by tho nation. He
lias acted with a cahu dignity aud a self
respecting reserve conspicuously contrast
ing with the iudeeorous spectacle, the pite
ous appeals, and tho nuusealiug abasement
exhibited by tb.3 morbid aud infatuated
Greeley. Instead of traveling about the
land soliciting votes for himself aud play
iug every disgusting part to wiu them, he
has preserved a becoraiug silence and a
manly attitude. lie has demeaned himself
frdin the beginning with the spirit which
befits his poultion as President aud a Presi
dential candidate.

Frauds in Luzernb County. We
publish in another column the addresser
tho Chairman of the Republican Committee
of Luzerne countyv in which it is alleged
that great frauds wcro committed in tho
city of Scranton, by tho Democrats. It
seems that Democrats repealed theLecomp
ton frauds, and that there wcro over 1,200
illegal votes polled In tho 12th ward. An
investigation is promised, and as the
frauds will be clearly proven, it will give all
the county offices voted for this year, and
two of tho Assemblymen to the Republican
caudidiiU'B instead of Democrats who have
the returns. The frauds In that ward have
been as notorious as were thoso of New
York city, and tho houcst men of both par
ties demand an investigation. This is, no
doubt, one of tho great frauds committed
whichour neighbor of tho Democrat has been
complaining of sinco the October election.
What the Business-Men of New
York Say. To business-mcu all over the
Union, the simple statement lately made
by tho leading busiuess-men of New York,
of their reasons for supporting Geueral
Grant, will carry great weight. The
Treasury has been prudently and faithfully
managed ; tho debt has been paid rift rato
exceeding 8100,000,000 a year ; .axVi have
beeu reduced at the rate of $ 170,000,000.
Thcso facts arcprcseutcd "for tho informa
tion of whom they may couceru." In rea
lity they concern everybody, and the fact
that they aro vouched for by so many ablo
and wealthy merchants aud bankers of tho
great commercial centrd of the country,
will comji attention. The document is
one of the niostnota-vorthy of thecampaigu,
and we regret tlv liavc not room to
publish it.
Then and X race Greeley hai
repeatedly said i-. Vpublican pa
saved the Union. ew XJieil s
preserved tho national c
repudiation of tho public debt, and has al
ways been the promoter of wise and bene
ficent- measures. He has often asserted
that tho Democratic party nniformily
opposod these measures and strove to bring
disaster and ruin upon the nation. Never
theless, he now asks the jxsoplc to repudiate
the party of progress and reform, in favor
of it party which, nccording to his own
showing, has beeu criminally wrong for a
quarter of a century.
We hope the Democracy will havo moro
auspicious weather when they celebrate the
election of Horace Greely to the Presiden
cy. Democrat.
No doubt of it. When that happens the
sky will surely fall, and wo will all catch
larks, aud, in addition, the editor of the
Democrat may be ablo to catch Yokes, af
ter whom he has been so eagerly inquiring.

The Catawissa Railroad has been leased
by tho Reading Railroad Company for 1)90
years. Tho Heading E.tglc gives tho fol
lowing as the snbstance of tho terms of tho
lease :
Tho Catawissa Railroad is to receive
each year 30 per cent, of the gross receipts,
the Reading to guarautec tho first year the
iutcrest ou all loans and $154,000; the
second year tho interest aud $178,000 ; the
third year the interest and $202,000 ; the
fourth year and ever after, tho interest and
8220,000. The Catawissa railroad is to
issue $1,000,000 new stock to bear interest
iu 1874 of 24 per cent. ; iu 1S75 of 4ij per
cent., and iu 1870 and ever after, 7 per
cent. The preferred stockholders are to
be authorized to subscribe at tho rate of
forty-live shares for every one hundred
shares in stock, and to pay for the same
by relinquishing all the claims for arrears
of dividends. In case the receipts for anv
one year shall fall short of the amount
named abovo for said year, tho Reading
Railroad Company to have no claim oil
tho receipts of any other year. Fiom this
date the Reading Railroad will learn the
cause of the large advance iu tho price of
the preferred shares. The lease is consi
dered mutually advantageous by the re
spective parties to it, aud as the ussent of
the stockholders ou neither sitle is required
to ratify the agreement, it may be consider
ed accomplished.
The Illinois Staats Zcitung, tho princi

by tho following figures :
"There are twenty-five counties iu the

The Land Slide.
ACCTOKMT ON THE NORTHERN CEN
TRAL. The York Daily In extra on Sat
urday gives tho following account of the
accident caused by a land silde near
York
Early this morning Conductor Harris,
who had in charge tho Western express
(uorth), arrived at the depot on foot, stating
that his traiu was Wrecked near Minich's
crossing, about three miles south of York,
but on account of the dense darkness of the
night tho situation of atlhirs could not be
seen, nnd the re To ro but few particulars
could bu given by him at that timu.
The Cincinnati express (south) was tho
first train that came along from which any
assistance could bo rendered. Tho wreck
hands, with their train, were Immediately
ordered out, but after they did arrive, could
do but little until daylight.
It appears that as the train came dashing
around the curve at that placo tho engine
and every car in the train was thrown off
tho (rack ou account of a land slide on tho
east side of tho east track. Tho cngino ran
some distance, tearing both tho tracks, and
then fell on the right side on the west track,
crushing tho engineer, who was at his post.
He sullered about ten minutes and thcu
expired.
The fireman was also painfull Injured,
but, notwithstanding his intense sufferings,
he was found trying to extricate bis unfortu
nate companion. An express car, n bag
gage car, and oue passenger car wcro pre
cipitated down an embandment, and tho
cuds were resting in tho water, which
covered a road about thirty feet below the
level of the track, and which tho Codorus
overflowed at the time. The other cars,
fortunately, were not upset.
The passengers aboard the wrecked train,
of whom, fortunately, all escaped unhurt,
notwithstanding sonic of them were con
siderably tumbled around in the cars, were
taken aboard tho Cincinnati express, which
returned and took them, aud the passen
gers nboard the Cincinnati express went
into tho rear ears of tho wrecked train,
which hy this time were ngain placed on
,io track, and taken to Baltimore with a
eight engine.
On arriving at tho scene of confusion
about daylight the sight was terrible. Tho
ciiiline is a complete wreck. It was engine
No. 132. The name of the engineer was
John Curry, a single nino, whose home is
at rhcenix, Maryland, ilia remains were
brought to York. The name of the ili'C
man is Johu Hess, of Baltinmnc. His in
juries aro not cousideard dangerous, llo
was taken to his homo in Baltimore.
The cars that were precipitated down
tho embankment appear to be but slightly
damaged. Both the east nnd west tracks
were torn up some distance, aud the rails
were lying oround iu all imaginable shapes.
A number were broken. There were al
ready quite a number of workmen engaged
in relaying the east track which by this
time is finished. Tho west track is uot ex
pected to bo ready for uso to-day.
It took but a short time to clear tho track
of the ground and stones which had slide
down on it, as the quantity was not large,
aud was, no doubt, washed dowu by the
late rains.
The officers of the road are deserving of
much credit for tho judicious manner in
which they managed everything in connec
tion with the disaster.
Mr. Daniel Cameron, one of tho em
ployees on the wreck train, was consider
ably bruised iu his side while assisting in
clearing away the debris, by being struck
with a piece of link that Hew from laelmin
that broke.
Shortly after ten o'clock the Niagart ex
press came in, nnd after eleven o'clock the
fast liue, Harrisburg accommodation and
Pacific express went south, and tho mail
traiu came in about noon.
Mr. Buekalew is very sad because of his

Honest Democrats and Republicans, read
It carefully :
Headquarters Union. Republican
Committee of . Luzerne County,
Wilesiiarhk, Pa., 25th October, 1872.
To the Republicans of Luzerne County :
You have rejoiced over thcspluudid victory
wou in Pennsylvania at tho October elec
tion. In that you have also been congra
tulated hy all good citizens everywhere.
You have special reasons for rejoicing
and congratulations over tho local victory
won in our own county Confronted as you
were by a well organized, defiant and inso
lent organization of your adversaries you
havo crushed them in defeat. Your oppo
nents had fraudulently tilled tho registry to
tho last line, and had surrounded the bal
lot, boxes In very many Districts with a
cordon of trained villians and unscrupulous
ruffians. So completely had they attempt
ed to take possession of tho avenues to the
polls, to the exclusion of honest men, that
in their moments of madness, they claimed
that Luzerne county, would give the coali
tion 7,500 majority.
Your vigilance, courage and energy des
troyed this vast machiucry of fraud every
where, except in four procincts iu the city
of Scrnnton. Tlioro tho overseers appoint
ed by your court worn brutally assailed,
and by violence driven from their seats at
the election boards, not only by roughs but
even by sworn officers of tho election.
Fraud, violence and crime overbore the
honest, quiet voters, and thcso schemers,
in a registry of about 800 voters, returned
a Democratic majority of more than 1,500.
This catalogue of crimes against the ballot
culminated in a forgery ond alteration of
the returns, to count in their candidates
defeated, notwithstanding the monstrous
frauds perpetrated at the polls. You indig
nantly resented this crime ou the whole
people, and your committee promptly took
all necessary steps to mete out to tho of
fenders the punishment which shall be duo
! then! Sfter full investigation, in tho crimi
nal and civu CC'Jrts. J his investigation tcift
be thoroughly aid unrelentingly ;iiriUf(l in

Bafiled and alarmed, the skiiift! engi
neers of this wiekeduess are endeavoring
to divert attention from their crimes, and
avoid the consequences of their iuiquity, by
instituting counter actions tho fruits of
perjury and subornation of pcrjury-against
several members of your committee nnd
their active Keputmoau mends. 1 ou may
rest well assured that your friends thus as
sailed, court the injury, defy their accusers.
nnd will thoroughly vindicate themselves
before nil indicia! tribunals and at the bar
of public opinion.
To you, itcpuulican voters ot L.uzcrnu
county, we say, be not diverted trom your
duty m November, by tho incidents. Let
evcru true man in his own neiahborhood
jirfss on in the work still before us. Do not
wait for work to be assigned to you ; no what
you see there is to be done. Thus shall vic

trom the hands ot plunderers and corrup

it. By order of tho Committee.

who have goods to transport throughout

horses were reported on .Saturday, dead j
horses wero lounil yesterday. V anous
fatal cases, something over 21XJ in number,
wero reported at tho diil'ereut precincts
yesterday morning, aud intelligence of more
were hourly comiu" in. Several of the
leading physicians of the Board of Health
express tho opinion that the disease will
not remain where it is at preseut, but be
fore long mankind may expect to suffer
from its effects.
THE EFFECT ON THE BUSINESS MEN.
The cars and stages on most of the lines,
however, were ruuuiug, with the number
of trips greatly reduced, so that tho chief
difficulty lay with tho inerchauts. Uray
men aro becoming comparatively niilliou
uires those yf t hem who have horses to
work. Along the North ltivcr piers mer
chandize is piled up in huge heaps. Mora
than half tho cargo of the Baltic Lloyd's
steamer Franklin, which arrived last
Wednesday, still lies on the wharf, and
there is no immediate prospect that horses
can be obtained to move it.
Thousands of cotton bales remain iu tho
di Here u I blips, aud merchauts are compell
ed to pay fabulous prices to have them
moved. At I'ier 20 East $1 a bale was
paid, and ono persou received for car
rying a single load. Tho wharves of tho
Boston and Province steamboat lino are
literally covered with freight, some of which
has liecn lying there for days. The officers
of the New Jersey Hailroad Company say
that an immense quantity of freight is
awaiting shipment at the pier used by that
coporatiou.
THE GRAIN DEALERS.
Business, especially iu Hour, has beeu al
most brought to a stand-still. Cameron
aro having a full 8wing," and aro obtain
ing as high as ft per barrel for hauling.
Purchases made ou Wednesday aud Thurs
day, for which orders wero given, wero
thrown up and tho orders returned becauso
of tho difficulty of oblaiuiug diayage.
Privato telegrams from dittereut parts of
tho Statu on the Hue of the canal are con
stantly received, aud are of tho same alarm
ing nature as those to hand on Wednesday
and Thursday.
It is feared by merchants that the stock
of beadstuffs in tho city will be exhausted
if the horses on the canal should give out.
Thero is a movement on foot to prepare
for auy emergency, aud placo steam tugs
iu the canal if necessary. Parties largely
interested iu the grain trade have fears that
they will not be able to meet their obliga
tions. The butter, cheese, and hop trades
liave also beeu greatly effected by the mala
dy ; some shipping houses were compelled
to susptud. The grocery trade also fuels
the want of trucks.

Wanhbnrn'n Mfts In Pari.
Washington. Oil. 28. Representatives
of two Germati-American associations to
day presented Hon. Elihu IJ. Washburnc
an address expressive of their grateful re
cognition of his kindness towards German
residents of Paris during the horrors of tba
siege. In not only carrying out the liberal
instructions of his Government, but In the
voluntary sacrifice of his own personal com
forts, and Riving cheerfully from his owti
stores to needy and starving Germans.
Minister Washburne, in reply, says the
credit for his act is due the Administration
of President Grant, under whoso specific
direction ho complied with tho request of
the German government to assume the pro
tection of the Germans in France. He felt
that ho correctly interpreted the feelings of
the Government and people of tho United
States when ho followed the inclination of
his own heart in doing what he did. If he
was able to send thirty thousand Germans
out of Paris before the gates of the city
wore dually closed it was because of the
unbounded liberality of the Germau gov
ernment in furnishing moans, and tho
French government gave him every sup
port. If he was ablo during tho last terri
ble days of tho siego to secure protection
aud furnish means of support to three thou
sand Germans, who flocked to our legation,
it was becauso tho Government of National
Defence caused his position to be respected;
if ho was ablo after the siege to continue
that protection it was because lie had tho
support of tho French Republic, and that
illustrious man, M. Thiers, who is at the
head of the government.
"Aud perhaps," says Mr. Washburne,
"nothing could better exemplify the power
of our country nnd the respect paid our flag
thau that tho Commune of Paris, iu its
career of crime and blood, released on my
demand moro than a hundred Germans
who had been thrown iuto prison, guilMess
of any crime aud subjected to frightful
persecution.1'

ers, city expresses, and all the various de
partments of business in which horses are
necessary are at a stand still, causing much
inconvenience. Hand carts are in demand,
and numerous wagons laden with nerisha-
ble articles for delivery at depots and for
family use are seen in the streets drawn by
men. The ouly encourauing feature is that
so few cases aro fatal. Tho first knowuand
authenticated case of the disease now so
prevalent among horses being communicat
ed lo a human being was reported here to
day, Russ?! White, driver of engine No.
4 while attending his !;orses was suddenly
taken with the disease and vTI'S conveyed
to his home. Ho had all the symptoms of
the disease, coughiug, running at the nose
and eyes and geueral feverish debility.
Italy is suffering now from a much moro
extensive disaster than that which laid
wnsto her valleys when tho fires of Mt.
Vesuvius broke out, last Summer. The l
has often overflowed its banks, devastating
the country which it usually fertilizes and
sweeping away houses and vineyards.
But this inundation seems to be more seri
ous than any which has lately been report
ed, and the suffering which it entails will
be very great.
