It is being, asserted in the Re
publican press generally that the elec
tion of Mclntyre and Shugert. will be
contested; alleging that sufficient evi
dence of fraud has been_ obtained to
give McVitty and Robinson their seats.
If Kelntyie . and Shugert have been
elected bir illegal votes they should
not have seats in the Senate; but until
WO have the evidence we look upon
tho."noise and confusion" about it as a
lot down in the defeat. One party can
do as well as the other in illegal voting
and wo have no doubt both parties
voted at least a few questionable votes.
P.EirA Mr. Ordway made a speech to
radical meeting, black and white, in
13.ichrnond last week, in which he said
believed that Congress had the
power, under the Constitution, to con..
fer the right of suffrage on any man it
chose in any State, and the result of
the vote in Ohio and Pennsylvania
would be nullified by its action at the
next session." Radioals generally be
lieve and teach the same see. If Con
gress should attempt to override the
expressed will of the people by the
passage of the Sumner negro suffrage
bill, there will be a time. The free peo
ple of the North will not submit,
Mr-A Philadelphia paper says the
professions in that city Aro overflooded,
and wo believe it. Not only in the city
but universally is it the case that many
of ouryoung men study for professions,
thinking it disreputable to enter into
some mechanical occupation. In such
a view our young men could not ho
more deceived or mistaken. A. young
man who devotes his talents upon
some profession at the present day is
burying them, while he who chooses
some mechanical occupation and makes
use of hi's talents in that direction, has
a far greater opportunity of being re
warded pecuniarily, and of being con
soled with the encouraging belief that
his services are appreciated, which is
seldom the case amongst those who
follow a profession. Parents should
instil into their children this principle,
and have them not surfer in after years
for a want of moans and competence.
tio_The signs of the political times
cannot be mitiunderst3od—the radical
loaders of the Republican party, and
the copperhead leaders of the Demo.
cratic party, have been on trial before
the people and have boon condemned.
A Republican or Union party cannot
hope to succeed in the Presidential
contest with such men as Stevens,
Wade, Sumner, Forney, etc., as lead
ers, and their radicalism as a platform.
Neither can the Democracy go into
the contest with any hopes of success
with the, Vullandighams, DuChanans,
or Biglers as leaders, unless they have
as au opposition the present radical
organization. The Union masses of
the whole country are tired being
drilled by unprircipled, and reckless
politicians. Conservative Republicans
and war Democrats must again reor
ganize, cut loose from Radicalism, and
save the Union:

A New York letter, dated the 15th,

Market has been quite marked within

ent appearance, bottom is not yet
reached. For instance, New York
Mills muslin is selling at 271 e, and
Wamsutta at 25c; other good makes
aro as low as 12@15c. Domestic wool
ens are experiencing a corresponding
decline. Foreign fabrics have the pre
vailing decline. The importers are
throwing large quantities into the auc
tion rooms, where they are disposed
of only at low prices. The carpet and
boot and shoe dealers generally report
a moderate trade, at unchanged prices
The great bulk of the business is over
for the season, though orders, to some
extent, aro expected till November.
The hardware jobbers and manufac
turers complain of stagnation in their
departments. They aro looking for a
late trade from the Gulf States, but
from the West the indications are
not so favorable as have been anticipa
ted:

of tho utiespet tea defeitt of the Repub

' "Such startling facts as the over
throw of 4_0,000 Republican majority
in Ohio, and 20,000 majority in Penn
sylvania, have a deeper meaning than
mere politicians comprehend. The
Democratic party, which had been
thought dead; which had been wrap
ped iu its grave clothes, and consigned
to an eternal burial, has come forth
like Lazarus from the tomb. No ghost
could startle more than this reality.
A year ago there was no theme moro
popular with Republican journals than
the hopeless weakness of their oppo
nonts; they proclaimed that Demo
cracy had been put down with the re
bellion, and would not rise again until
a new rebellion was attempted. The
Republican triumph was assumed to
ho perpetual. A new politiula dynasty
had boon established, destined to
rule for the next twenty years. Many
of the Republican leaders made their
arrangements for a long succession of
Presidents. But the successful party
did not fully consider the manner in
which it was created. Its irresistible
strength came from the war. During
the rebellion 'the Republican banner
bore the American motto—" The war
for the Union"—and was not so much
opposed to the Democratic party prop
per as to that wing which sympathiz
ed with the rebellion. Representing
the principle that the Union should
be maintained, even if wo fought ten
years, nothing was easier than to de
feat Vallandigliam by 100,000 majori
ty in Ohio; nothing more natural than
that it should carry: every Northern
State. But, with the, war ended, that
overwhelming advantage.
Success has always its evils. Power
has always its weakness. Just as
the Democratic party during the war
suffered from the patronage of men
whose ideas wore altogether anti-
American, the •Republican party has
been injured by men who undertook
to manage it for,. the 'benefit of their
selfish ambitious. To all the political
adventurers in the country the great
party appeared a mine of inexbausti
ble richness. They beheld it at their
feet as the Jews looked upon Canaan,
or Cortez upon Mexico. To be nomi
nated on the Republican ticket was
equivalent to an election ; to be elected
was to secure influence which would
endure for years. There was the fa
bled El Dorado, the apples of gold and
the water of life, waiting for the strong
hand, and the fearless heart. As the
eagles swoop down upon their proy,as
the gamblers gather around the rich
young heir, the adventurers camp
down upon the Republican. party.
They snatched at the spoils 'of office,
and before long began to quarrel over
the division. There is scarcely a State
in which the last, year has not seen a
dispute over party nominations,and tho
party everywhere has been -agitated
by the Presidential rivalries. Armies
have been beaten by the dissensions of
their generals, and this is not the first
time in the political history of the
United States that a party, flushed
with victory, has suddenly found itself
defeated by an enemy it despised.
Whatever may be the strength of the
Democracy, it is certain that they have
carried many districts which properly
belong to their opponents. It is pro•
balder that in such cases many Repub
licans preferred the defeat of their par
ty to the election of adventures to of
fice.
The Incentiiitry Hunnicutt.
The other daY 'Hunnicutt, the self
cOnstituted leader: of the Radical par
ty in Virginia, proclaimed a wholesale
emigration from Africa to America, as
well as a retut•n . of thO fugitives in
Canada who escaped from slavery and
of the suffering emigrants now in flak-
Li and Liberia. "Yes," he exclaimed,
"we would overturn Africa rigLt into
America, if necessary, and those thick
lipped, flat nosed, woolly haired peo
ple that now swarm those sunny
shores should be brought hero as Irish
men from Ireland, and in the same
time be fitted just as well for the re
sponsibilities of citizenship." But Hun.
nicutt is not content with hoping to
secure, by their help, the domination
of his party and the Africanization of
the Southand the entire country. Iu the
absence of General Schofield at Wash
ington ho has ventured to invoke oth
er instrumentalities for the consumma. :
tion of his purpose. In a speech to the
negroes in Charles City he told them
that they had nothing to fear if a war•
of races should arise. Reviewing the
results of registration in each of
the southern States, he • showed the
negroes their physical preponderance
in the Gulf States and South, Carolina.
Ho said he had no_ report of tho rela
tive strength of the two races in North
Carolina, but in Virginia the white
majority is only . thirteen thousand,
and ho and his set, numbering twenty
five thousand, wore bound to make
common cause with them. His own,
words best express the incendiary
spirit with which be would fain fire
their hearts. "You have," said ho,
"no property. The white race own
houses and lands. Some of you are
Old and feeble and cannot carry a mus
ket, but can apply the torch to the
dwellings of your enemies." If those
who sent Hannicutt,to Virginia, can
not be induced by humanity to silence
such wicked and dangerous utteran
ces, it is still difficult to suppose that
they and he can remain utterly indif
ferent to the warnings given at the
recent elections in Pennsylvania and
Ohio.—Nete York herald.
Bayard. Taylor, during his summer
trip to Colorado; had an electrical vis
itation which he describes as follows:
"I experienced three distinct electric
shocks, probably from the fact that I
was insolated by the India-rubber
cloth upon which I lay, and then touch
ed the earth with my hand. On the
snowy ranges, persona aro sometimes
so charged that there are sparks and
crackling sounds at every movement
of their bodice. Alen acquainted with
the phenomenon imagine that bees
have gotten into their hair, and that
rattlesnakes are at at their heels. Many
strange stories are told of the effect of
the fluid, which seems to manifest it
self- in an eccentric but not dangerous
f or m."

The Blacks and Whites,
It really is a wonder that this coup
try existed so long as it did, without
the direct aid and encouragement of
black voters. It scorns to be a well
authorized historical fact that the Re
public did get on quite comfortably
fbr something like eighty years, while
the blacks not only did not fight our
battles nor control our elections. It is
true there were a good many things
that were not exactly as' they should
have been, but nevertheless the coun
try prospered; the crops were good;
the liberties of the people were pro
tected • we went through one war
with pro
tected;
Britain and anothci• with
Mexico very creditably; commerce
flourished; taxation was light ; we
paid our national debt; foreign nations
envied us, and we, in turn, for the
sake of keeping up good fellowship,
despised them—and on the whole we
got along very comfortably;,and in.
all this we had no help from the blacks
but, on the contrary, devoted a groat
deal of our time to abusing thorn and
whipping them and keeping .them in
slavery.
But now we aro told that but for the
negro we should go forthwith to eter
nal smash. The Tribune tolls us that
but for the black soldiers in our ar
mies the Rebel/ion would have triumph
ed. Our Union was saved from utter
destruction only by the invincible Arm
of the enfranchised slaves. The whites
proved utterly unequal to the task.
And nothing but black votes can save
the Republican party from overthrow
and the Union from ruin.
Possibly all this is true; but we can
not say its truth has ever been made
quite clear to us. We.honor the blacks
for, what they did contribute to the suc
cess of the Union arms, but wo can ,
not forget that they also lent a good
deal of strength to the Confederate
force. We believe it is true that no
negro over betrayed a Union man;
but we arc not aware that the negroes
over betrayed a _Rebel soldier. Treach
ery is not among the sins of the negro
character; they are generally faithful to
the side they happen to be with. And
while we would have their merits and
services .fully acknowledged and re
warded, we aro a little tired of hearing
all the credit given to them for the de
feat of the Rebellion and the, salvation
of the Union. One reason, perhaps,
of our weariness is, that we don't be
lieve it all belongs to them. We can
'not help thinking that some of it be
long to the white soldiers also.
"If the blacks are. not enfranchised,"
says the Tribune, ."Vallandigham can
beat General Grant for President."
The Tribune evidently would not shed
many tears over that result. But it is
mistaken. Principle still counts for
something among our white voters.
Vallandigham did not carry Ohio
when he ran for Governor -two years
ago, and yet the blacks of that State
were not "enfranchised." White votes
will still tell—and on the - side of the
Union, too, in spite of the Tribune's_
croakings.
The death of Elias - Rowe, inven
tor of the sewing machine, takes'away
another of the world-famed Americans
who have benefited their country and
mankind by practical inventions of in
calculable utility and value. The sew
ing machine plays such a groat part
now in the economy of business and in
domestic economy, that it seems in
creditable when wo read how recently
its inventor was struggling to intro
duce it to the public favor, and how
very recently he began to receive any
recognition of the services ho had ren
dered mankindwhich services will
produce 'perpetual' fruits throughout,
the world. Though he labored, long
amid poverty and discouragement,'
without recompense or recognition, he
obtained his reward at last. Fortune
lavished her favors upon him; his
name became a household word in
families; and recently, in presence, as
it wore of the assemblaged world, •he
was.signalized as ono of the benefac : ,
tors of mankind.

much publicity, bit reminds all whom
