'` , \I:SSiSzAPPI gone DEMOCRATIC.'
When the result of the November elec
tions was flashing over the wires, inform
ing the people of Republican successes
from every section, there was hut one lit
tle bre•tk in the current, and that was,
Editor.
"Mississippi gone Datuocratic." But this
surprise , ' no one conversant with the sit-
uation in that State, where the hand that
used to crack the whip of the slave-driver
now holds the revolver and the shotgun,
and where free elections are unknown. To
show our readers how the State was car
ried by the Democrats we give place to the
following private letter, written from Ya
zoo, the home of the red-handed murderer
Barksdale, who shot clown, in cold blood,
Capt. Dixon because he presumed to run
as a candidate against the regular Demo
cratic nominee for sheriff. Here. is the
letter :
YAZOO CITY, Miss., Nov. 7, 1879
Mr. Frank Dixon—FRIEND FRANK :—The elec
tion is over, and I know you are anxious to
hear how it passed off. I will not attempt to
give you a full outline of everything, for it
would take several days to write it. I will
only state a few facts in regard to what oc
cured on the day of election. It was under
stood among the bull dozers that if the ne
groes could not be induced to vote with them
that they' would not let them vote at all. As
soon as the polls were open at the Court House
"Jim" Barksdale, "Tom" Williams, Wkadley
Gibson, "Bob" Wheeless, Lambeth and about
twenty others took a stand at the gate and
voted them three at a time, which would have
taken at least two days for them all to vote
if they had been allowed at all.
Every time a negro would come up to the
gate they would demand him to show his
ticket. If he showed an Independent ticket
he was knocked down. Thus they went on
until about 11 o'clock, when "Jake" Holder
gave the signal and all drew their pistols and
commenced firing into the air. The negnms
all ran off, and of course there was no inc,; :e
votill~,
The same' game was played at Benton and
Dover. When all the negroe. collected Lt the
polls they commenced firing in the air. You
liave lived long enough in the South to know
that the negro can't stand that sort ofpunish
meat. I don't think there were exceeding
500 negro votes cast in the county. At Silver
Creek, where everything was solidly Inde
pendent, they would not famish them with
either box or registration book, so that vote
was thrown out entirely. I don't suppose in
the history of any country such fraud and
villainy were ever before practised on a people.
Taylor and about seventy deputies were ap
pointed to keep peace and order at the polls,
all of whom participated in the shooting.—
Taylor fired four shots. It is amusing to see
the negroes walk up the streets with their
jaws tied up, and whenever they are asked
what is the matter, they answer, "Oh, nothing.
I tried to vote an Independent ticket at the
Court House." As soon as I can see all the
boys from the other precincts I will write the
whole thing up and send it to you. It is
getting late. I will now close. Your friend.
"Mississippi gone Democratic." Could
it do anything else under such a reign of
terror ? Frauds and fighting at elections
are not unknown at the North, but, in the
language of the New York Tcitunr, it is
only iu Southern communities, demoralized
by the long curse of slavery, that the "up•
per classes" have systematically banded
themselves together to deprive their more
ignorant and timid neighbors of political
rights, and that such conspiracies are sus
tained by public opinion and left unpun
ished by the law. But it is not only the
rights of the colored voters of Mississippi
that are assailed by these outrages. The
rights of the North are invaded, too.—
When Senators and Representatives from
Mississippi appear at the National Capital
to make laws for the whole people, we all
have a right to inquire by what title they
assume that function. We are not to be
governed by the fist and the pistol. The
Constitution gives to every State, through
its representatives in the Senate and the
House, the right to inquire into the fair
ness and legality of elections in other
States, and Congress is empowered to
"regulate" the manner of voting for Sena
tors and Representatives. The bitter
opposition of the Democratic party to
every exercise of this important right is
ostensibly founded upon a theory of con
stitutional interpretation; but while
practices such as have recently been
brought to light in Mississippi prevail
through that extensive region where the
Democratic party holds almost undisputed
sway, it will be impossible to make the
Northern people listen to any such
theories, or believe in the sincerity of
those who maintain them.
IN this week's issue of the Philadelphia
Weekly Press will be commenced the
publication of a border story entitled,
"The Brady Brothers ; or, Bald Eagle's
Nest." The story will be a Pennsylvania
border historical serial, descriptive of the
border life, customs and struggles of our
Pennsylvania frontier during the Revolu
tion. The time chosen will be that bloody
and troubled period immediately succeed
ing the massacre of Wyoming and "the
great runaway" in 1778. The scenes wil
be located on the West Branch of the
Susquehanna. John Brady, his brave
and stalwart sons, James and Samuel;
Colonels Kelley and Plunkett, Queen
Esther, Bald Eagle and other border cel
ebrities of that stormy period will figure
prominently. The theme was suggested
by the late centennial celebration at Mun
cy, Lycoming county, at which time a
monument to Captain John Brady. the
famous hero-patriot of the West Branch,
was unveiled amid a wonderful concourse
of people, gathered from far and near to
do tardy honor to his memory. This se
rial will be from the pen of Charles Mc-
Knight, author of "Our Western Border,"
"Simon Girty, the White Savage," and
"Captain Jack, the Scout," and it is
hoped that each Press subscriber will an
nounce the serial and the paper to his
neighbors. Any person sending a club of
ten subscribers will be entitled to a copy
free fur one year. Send fur sample copy
of the paper containing the first chapters
of the story. After every Republican in
the county has subscribed and paid for
the JOURNAL for one year, we advise
them to send and get the Press.
Ouit down-the-road contemporary is
mistaken when it says that the JOURNAL
gave Dr. MeNite "Hail Columbia" be
cause he voted for a Republican Director
of the Poor. It was our ne;ghbor of the
.Monitor who entertained the Doctor with
the National air. The Doctor only show
ed his good judgment in voting fur
'Squire Hafily, and in place of censuring
him the JOURNAL accords him credit for
his course, and hopes that he will repeat
it when the time comes again.
CONOaESS meets on Monday next, and
the country is anxious to see the lino of
policy to be pursued by the rebel bri.
gadiers.

A CONTRACT has been signed for the
building of seven hundred and fifty miles
of the Texas Pacific railroad, west from
Fort Worth, at a cost of '520,000 per mile.
The entire sum of the contract, for all

sum of $15,000,000. Col. Tom Scott is
at the head of the road, which is a slat
cient guarantee that it will go ahead.
THERE is a regular Kilkenny cat fight

congregation is about equally divided for

Dangers of the Electoral Count.
A TALK WITH' SENATOR. CARPENTER -
WHAT BE THINKS THE DEMOCRATS IN •
TEND-HIS SUPPORT OP GRANT.
"I don't care to be quoted on the sub
ject," said Senater Carpenter, of Wiscon
sin, on Thursday to a Tribune reporter,
after a talk on the dangers of the next
electoral count, "because I have already
said enough in the papers. You know my
views. I believe that the Democrats mean
to throw out the returns from one or more
Republican States and declare their can
didate elected. They will find a pretext
for this course or make one. Unfortunately
there are precedents enough for assuming
the right of one House or both Houses to
prevent the counting of a return by a ma
jority vote. You ask what would be the
result. If they should find some pretext
of a plausible character, on which there
might fairly be a difference of honest judg
ment, we should have to acquiesce; if
their action should be grossly unjust and
a manifest defiance of the will of the peo
ple expressed at the election, there would
be a fight. Civil war would inevitably
ensue. The whole danger comes from our
bad system of electing a President. This
is the only free country where the people
are not allowed to choose their chief mag
istrate."
'•Will any further efforts be wade this
winter to pass a law regulating the elec
toral count ?"
"Yes, but they will be fruitless. The
Democrats will allow no law of the kind to
pass. We shall put them on record as op
posing the adoption of fair non-partisan
legislation governing the count, but that
is all we can. do."
"By so doing you will tangle up some
Democratic Senators with their old records.
A number of them made speeches three
years ago against the present system of
dealing with the returns, and in favor of
some net' legislation.".
"Yes, and we shall get the question
plainly before the country in the next
campaign."
Senator Carpenter was coked what he
expected in the way of general legislation
from the approaching session of Congress.
Ile replied :
"Nothing of any %alit° to the country.
The session will be an angry and noisy
one—a continual row without any profit."
"Will the Democrats venture to revive
the issues of last session ?"
"You would say not from the way they
have been beaten on them at the fall elec.
tions, but you can never tell what folly
they will commit. They carded this year's
elections for us by their performances last
session, and they will probably do some
thing this winter to help us nest year."
Senator Carpenter is a strong Grant
man. He believes Grant will be nominated
and elected. "I have been in favor of his
nomination in 1880 ever since he went
out of office in 1877," he said.
•Who is your seeand choice ?'' ho was
asked.
"I have none. li' Grant will not run I
shall be in favor of the man who has the
best chance of carrying New York."
'Do you feel certain that Grant can
carry New York ?"
"I have not the least doubt of iL"
"Do you take any stock in the reported
present boom in the South ?"
"There may be something in it. If the
Southern people are convinced that a Re
publican is going to be elected President
next year in any event, they will prefer
Grant to anybody else. They are a mili
tary people by nature, and they prefer a
military man to a civilian. Then they re
spect Grant because, while lie was firm in
euforeing the laws, he always treated them
justly. I do not think, however, that
theie will be a division in the South next
year ; still we cannot tell what a few
months will bring forth in polities."
A Visage Rivalling in Yellowness
That of a •'heathen Chinee," if belonging to
one of our race, can scarcely be described as
attractive. But worse than this, it is the in
dex of a disordered liver, of a liver that needs
arou.sing and regulating. The remedy is at
hand, prompt, efficacious. A course of Hos
tetter's Stomach Bitters will expel the mis
directed bi , le from the blood and divert it into
the proper channel, open the bowels, remove
the dyspeptic symptoms which invariably ac
company biliousness and counteracts the rap
idly developing tendency to dangerous con
gestion of the liver, which must always exist
when the skin and whites of the eyes assume
this yellow hue. The pains through the right
lower ribs, side and shoulder blade, the nausea,
furred state of the tongue, and unpleasant
- breath which indicate liver complaint, in
short all its disagreeable concomitants are
soon remedied by this sovereign corrective,
which in addition to its regulating properties
is a superb invigorant, and a pure and agree
able medicinal stimulant, appetizer and ner.
vice. Nov. Wara.

The World for 1880.
Democrats everywhere should in torm themselves
carefully alike of the action of their party through
out the country and of the movements of their
Republican opponents. A failure to do this in
1876 contributed greatly to the loss ny the Dem
ocracy of the fruits of the victory fairly won at
the polls.
The year 1880 promises to be one of the most
interesting and important years of this crowded
and eventful century. It will witness a Presi
dential election which may result in re-establish
ing the Government of this country on the prin-
ciples of its constitutional founuers, or in perma
nantly changing the relations of the States to the
Federal power. No intelligent man can regard
such an election with indifference. THE WORLD
is the only daily English newspaper published in
the city of New York which uphotds the doctrines
of constitutional Democracy, will steadily repre
sent the Democratic party in this great canvass.
It will do this in no spirit of servile partnership ;
but temperately and firmly. As a newspaper THE
WORLD, being the organ of no man, no clique and
no interest, will present the fullest and the fairest
picture it can make of each day's passing history
in the city, the State, the country and the world.
It will aim hereafter, as heretofore, at accuracy
first of all things in all that it publishes. No
man, however humble, shalt ever be permitted
truly to complain that he has been unjustly dealt
with in the columns of THE WORLD. No interest,
however powerful, shall ever be permitted truly to
boast that it can silence the fair criticism of Taz
WORLD.
During the past year THE WORLD has seen its
daily circulation trebled and its weekly circula
tion pushed far beyond that of any other weekly
newspaper in the country. This great increase
has been won, as Tue WORLD believes, by truth
fulness, enterprise, ceaseless activity in collecting
news and unfaltering loyalty to itself and to its
readers in dealing with the questions of the day.
It is our hope and it will be our endeavor that
THE WORLD'S record for 1880 may be written in
the approbation and the support of many thous
ands more of new readers in all parts of this In
dissoluble Union of Indestructible States.

THE NEW YORK TIMES.
FOR 1880.
ESTABLISHED 1851
The political course of THE NEW-YORK TIMES
will be guided during the Presidential year by
the same principles which have won for it the
position of the foremost Republican newspaper in
the United States. The successful issue of the
recent contest in New York, and the unbroken
series of Republican victories in other Northern
States which preceded and accompanied it, have
combined to demonstrate the soundness of the
position of THE TIMES in regard to the questions
with which the Republican party is called upon
to deal.
THE TIMES will continue to place fidelity to the
interests of the Republican party above the pur
suit of personal aims or private ambition, and
will steadfastly insist that the usefulness of any
party must be measured by the extent of its devo
tion to the honor and welfare of the country. In
the future, as in the past, the attitude of THE
TIMES wi ll be that of independence within the Re
publican party. The maintenance of the national
credit; the purification of the public service; the
advocacy of all seasonable projects of fisca re
form; rigid economy in public expenditures; op
position to subsidies and corporate jobbery in all
its forms; and the preservation of equal rights to
all citizens North and South, will be the salient
points of the policy of THE TIMES.
Tau Timms will continue to be distinguished as
an enterprising, accurate, and carefully-edited
newspaper. The acknowledged excellence and
fullness of its correspondence by mail and tele
graph, from all parts of the world, will be ade
quately maintained, and its facilities for collecting
doine.tio and foreign sews will be expanded to
meet the increasing demands of our time.
In the sphere of literary and actistio criticism,
social, and gentral discussion, THE Times will
address itself, as heretofore, to the appreciation
of the educated and intelligent classes of the
American people. It will be lively without being
sensational, aggresive without being coarse; at all
times it will strive to be feartese and independent
in the championship of the right. No theories sub
versive of the principles on which the sacredness
of family tics and the ex:stence of society alike
repose will be promulgated in Us columns.
THE TIMES rejects all advertisements of lotter
ies, of quacks and medical pretenders, and of all
other agencies by which the insidious poison of
vice is disseminated throughout society. It will
be in the future, as in the past, a newspaper espe
cially adapted for family reading.
THE SEMI-WEEKLY TIMES is specially fitted to
meet the requirements of those who seek more
ample details of current news and fuller install
ments of current discussion than are furnished in
the weekly issue. THE SEMI-WEEKLY has a large
circulation abroad and among the professional
and mercantile classes, outside of the large cities,
at home. At the reduced club rates now offered
for this edition its popularity ought to be greatly
increased. _ _
Ilia WEEKLY Mies, containing selected edi
torials on topics of national and general interest
from the columns of the daily issue, as well as a
concise summary of political, social, and foreign
news,besides other features which recommend it to
all classes of readers, is a paper admirably fitted
to circulate in every portion of the United States.
Its conductors will spare no effort, not only to
maintain its well earned supremacy, but to make
its popula ity still more decided.
