NEW YORK REPUBLICANIStii
: Whether the official canvass of the
votes polled at the into election in
the...,tatoolliew York, shows .a.aufr
ior,itYP; PQ'R e ) n° T r ,a, c Yl9 AiA 4 9r
ninety thousand, seems a matter of
suprlme indifference to the public
generally, The result appears to be
accepted asn matter...a. connm4—and
hardly maps comment or inquiry.
Why is it, that a State which in 1856
gave: fifty thousand majority for:Fre
mont, over all others, is ~ now ;thus,
quietly surrendered to the possession
of the Democracy ? The question is
worth consideration, whethekin view
of its importance, politicall37or from
the lessons it may teach the Republi
cans of other States.
The ready, answer to bo met at the
onset, is that the gross frauds per
petrated in New York city, are suffi
cient to overbalance - the honest votes
of the State, and that by illegal vot
ing, the Democray have gained su
premacy, until the State is irremedi
ably lost to the. Republicans. This
May be true, and in a measure ac
counts for the political revolution—
but the city of Row York in 1856
gave thirty thousand majority
against- Fremont, and the heavy ma
jority that fraud is now able to cast
against us, should not be sufficient to
make a Democratic State of New
York, if there was not gross imbecili
ty, corruption or treachery , some
where on outside.
In our judgment the politieil . dis
asters to the Republicans ; in our sis
ter State are owing to inherent caus
es which are palpable enough, and
which ftre . so chronic and deep-setited
as to leave no hope. of any different
result for years to come. The State
of New York is hopelessly lost to the
Republican party, through the gross
selfishness, dishonesty and stupidity,
of self-constituted leaders. The soon
er those in power ,accept this result,
and acknowledge the reason therefor,
the better it will be for the welfare of
the party, and the good of the coun
try.
A notable illustration of the truth
of this assertion may bo found in the
legislation of last winter, for the city
of New York. The Democratic ma
jority in the Legislature, with a
Democratic Governor, should have
thrown the responsibility of legisla-*
tion upon that party. The matter of
legislating for the city, would have
been sufficient to disrupt the Democ
racy, had the Republicans simply
kept themselves out of the contest,
and with ordinary shrewdness allow
ed the Democracy to enact the Kil
kenny-cat fight. No harm could have
come tiilthe interests of the people,
by inaction on the part of the Repub
licans. The breach was already made
when the bad counsels and stupidity
of Republicans prevailed, and the
Detiocratie leaders were given a
power they never before possessed,
to poll illegal votes and increase the
Democratic majority. This was ow
ing in part, to the . interested advice
of Republicans acting in concert with
TWEED, and partly through the bubo
cility of GREFLEY, who was thorough
ly humbugged into believing that
good might come of surrendering the
city into the hands of the " ring."
The result any one in the possession
of a thinible-ful of brains might have
foreseen, and it was fully illustrated
in the organization of the city gov
ernment, and by the large Majority
lately given for the Democracy.
The voters in the rural districts of
the State of New York, are disgusted
with the incompetency, selfishness,
and sell-conceit of-the men who as
sume to control the Republican par
ty in the State. There is disgust,
distrust and division, in every comi
ty. The 'Republican vote Can never
again be fully polled, untp the mass
es have a candidate around whom
they can rally, as being dissociated
from the men who have ruined the
organization . , by using it for the bas
est purposes. If atusi could dis
connect his name from those who are
obnoxious to the Republicans of New
York, he could and world carry the
State with as large - a majority as that
given for Fremont in 1856.
The situation and wants of the Re
publicans of New York, are stated
in the annexed article from the Arcs,
York Standar4 with remarkable force
and clearness. The allusion to Sen
ator 0017EBON is very .apropos. Un-.
der the lead of a man as sagacious as
the distinguished Senator the State
of Now York would be captured from
the enemy in two campaigns, and
made impregnably republican. Not
that there are Po good men in New
York, competent by ;sagacity,-talents
and integrity to lead her masses in
the right direction, but the over
whelming preponderance of ,self in
terest and stapidity,is too Much for
them, and they are impotent to ac
complish wholesome results. The
Standard rightly states the ease when
it says:
"WANTED LEADErt !-If the Republican
party had few prominent men of political cali
bre awl forethought; if its members had no
governing principle, and were merely adventur
ers in search of place and profit; if they were
content to stand still nud consider thew work
at en cud, we should hare no complaint to
make of their present apathy and timidity.
There is much to do. Great issues lower upon
ns, and never before did the party neeil disci
pline, conscience, earnestness, fire.
"There is a party and a cause. We have an
administration singularly acceptable to the
people—honesty in high places,--constant ef
fort to collect the taxes and pay the debt. Gem

The facts are that while the debt
,was constantly 'increasing daring
jokuron'ti Demcleratic (?) Adminis
tration, it has been Steruilly . ,rediceed
ever since GaArr's inauguration.
During the first year the taxes
were not only reduced' some - seventy
millions, but ab:Jat ninety Millions
were paid on , the principal of the
debt. This is a good comparative
showing for the fi rst year. Every
Democrat said, "Well, it'won't last;"
but how liaithe second year opened?
The last monthly statement shows
nearly a million larger payment on
the debt than was made 'during the
same month llst year !

expenditures and reducing the debt,
is likely to go on through the ctn.::

ear J.tarrs W. Slum, a young col
ored man, a native of South Carolina
and a member of the freshman class
of the Howard: University, District of
Columbia, was appointed u cadet at
West Point by the 'Hon. Mr. Hoge,
Representative in Congress from that
State. It being discovered at the
academy that the young gentleman
would, in all probability, go through
with his examination in the classics,
mathematics, and the other studies
required, he was brought before the
Medical Board, and rejected on ac
count of weak eyes,'and with the true
feeling of the old slaveholders, who
made the education of the black ille
gal, he was advised not to study, as
he would become totally blind in a
few years. It is a remarkable fact
that the candidate never before knew
he was so , near the blind asylum. We
very much doubt if, during the war,
this boy had been of an ago to enter
the army and had been drafted he
would have escaped carrying a mus
ket because. of "weak eyes." It was
undoubtedly a quibble unworthy of
American soldier's to set aside an able
ambitious youth. Young Smith, we
understand, is not inclined to follow
the advice , so generously tendered,
that he postpone his studies. He
will return next term to Howard Uni
versity. His treatment while wait
ing his, fate at West Point has been
most cruel. His letters were inclos
ed by the cadet officer, when given
out for distribution, with the other
niggers'; as he passed , along the
walks he-was hailed as " nigger ;" and
in the words of one • who witnessed
these proceedings, "It Was nigger ev : -
" erywhere—nothing but nigger, nig
" ger, nigger." Howard, another
colored boy, has already passed what
is called the physical examination,
but it is thought that he will certain
ly fail in the mental—that is, he. will
not be allowed to pass. We refer to
these things with equal paiti and
shame.
SENTENTIOUSLY Expassium.—At the
celebration of the adoption of the
Fifteenth Amendment by the colored
people of Baltimore, one of their res
olutions says :
We tender to Gen. Grant our warm
acknowledgments, that his first words
in office were for the Fifteenth
Amendment, and that his. wise and:
patriotic piilicy has so essentially
contributed to ita ratification, that
he has the merit and glory which no
American has ltad since Washington,
of consummating in peace as President,
what he won in war as the leader of the
armies of hi.. country.
Jam' The various Conferences of
the Methodist Episcopal Church of
Pennsylvania, held this year, appoint
ed delegates to the State Convention
of the Church. The committee of
arrangements Lad fixed upon Will
iamsport as the place for holding it;
but a change has been made, and the
convention will be held in Philadel
phia in September next. The day
has not yet been designated.
IS- The Saperintendent of the
Census has deemed it expedient by a
special circular to call the attention
of marshals and assistant marshals
to the rules which' are to govern in
the enumeration of youth absent
from their homes for the purposes of
education. These will bo enumerat
ed at the college, academy, or other
institution at which they lodge and
board, and not at their family home,
as heretofore.

_
The message was the stibject of en
animated debate in the House. Gen.
Rises; Chairman of the Committee
on 'Foreign Relations, opposed the
views contentedth e message, and
- favored the acknowledgment of the
independence of Cuba. -
814 r As a further proof of the un
christian aniftnaligiigukt spirit exist
ing to a great extent in the Congiered
rebel States, we might cite the refusal
of- the religions conventions there to
fraternise with those in the North;
this too after the olive-branch of
peace and friendship was voluntarily
extended them. The last instance of
the kind occurred a few days since.
The general Asiembly just sitting
in Pliiladilphia, soon after convening,
declared its desire to establish cordial
fraternal relations with the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian Church
South, sitting at Louisville, and reso
lutions, offering to open fraternal cor
respondence with said Assembly,
were promptly passed and forwarded
by a committee. Instead of respond
ing as true Christians should have re
sponded, however, we see it recorded
that "the Stated Clerk of the- South
ern Assembly has sent on the un
gracious refusal of that body" to
entertain the offer of their brethren
North. The Philadelphia Assembly,
in reply to this reftsal, voted its re- ,
gret that the propsition had failed
and offered to renew it "at any time.
Comment is unnecessary. _
Rte' The annual slaughter of sheep
by dogs in the United States is much
greater than is commonly supposed,
if the published Government reports
may be relied upon. The monthly
Report of the Agricultural Depart
ment for March and April , received
at the REPORTER office, contains re
turns from 417 counties, in which the
number of sheep killed by dogs during
the past year is set down at 99,389.
It is estimated that full returns would
swell the number to 500,000, making
a loss of probably $2,000,000. These
figures show a veribad balance sheet
against the dogs, and i is proposed
that the Government c 4 use to be lev
ied after this a dog tax. A number
of counties-- - -Susquehanna one of
them—have loco! dog laws in opera
tion by which losers of sheep by dogs
are re-imbursed from a public fund
derived from a tax on 'these useless
animals.
Va. The late amendments to the
income tax law will operate about as
follows : The increase of the exemp
tion to $2,000 will relieve about one
hundred and fifty-nine thousand sal
aried men, and other people of limit
ed means, from the payment of the
tax, who now pay between nine •and
ten millions ; the reduction of the
rate to three per cent. Will take - off
about $6,400,000 more from the re
maining 116,000 taxpayers who will
still remain subject to the tax. As
the law now stands, the, income, tax
of last year was levied upon two hun
dred and seventy-five thousand per
sons, who $25,026,068. If the fore
going amendments shall be finally
adopted by. the House and the Senate,
they will reduce' the amount raised
from this source about $16,000,000,
and leave about $9,000,000 to be col
lected.
BEir The Piegen Indians, afteitheir
chastisement by Sheridan, took ref
uge in the BritiSh possessious. Here
they have recently been visited by a
Jesuit Fatlutr, who reports to Gen.
Sully they acknowledge the justice of
their punishment and their desire for
peace. They said their young men
had been well beaten i which would
lead them to obey their chiefs hero
after, and let the whites alone. This,
testimony is valuable.

The subject of Life Insurance has
acquired so much prominence, and
the interests connected therewith are
of so much importance, that a few
words on the subject may not be
amiss at this time. Believing, as we
do, that
.every one who can, ought to
insure, we think it especially the du
ty of heads of families, of those hav
ing others dependent upon their la,
hors for maintenance, to provide a
certain fund, so that should death
come unexpectedly, the loved 'ones
may not be cast adrift on the cold
charities of the world. We think,
however, that an accurate investiga
tion would show that the benefits re
suiting from Life Insurance, are in a,
great majority of instances reaped by '
the friends of those whO when they
went into it were removed by circuni
stances from reasonable danger of
poverty. This is not as it should be.
Rarely do you see the clerk, the me
chanic, or the farmer, insuring his
life for the benefit of those, depend
ent upon him, wh il e you often find
the man of assured wealth, providing
a certain income for his children or
perhaps his grand-children in this
y.
" Riches may take to themselves
wings and fly away, thieves may
break in and steal, few friends can
be relied upon when fortune shows
her frowns, but the man who puts hii
trust in a reliable, well-established Life
Insurance company, shall never be
confounded. Just here comes in an
idea of the highest importance to all
those contemplating . Life Insurance.
In this as in ever, other branch of
business, new claunanta. for patrons
age are daily springing up, and in
their frantic appeals to the public,
many of them hold out inducements
in, the way of enonnous divideida,
return of premiums, loan of half or
more of the amount of the policy,
and we might almost say promising
to pay the insured more than the
amount of the policy ,
. and yet permit
ting him to keepit; Inducements that
upon the Slightest reflection must ap
pear absurd and impossible of fulfil
ment. When such ideas are advanc
ed, it would seem only prudent to
investigate the standing of the par
ties, and in nearly every case it will,
be found that they are strangers
whose only object is to make all they
can and leave town before the next
premium falls due, or before the in
sured have a practical awakening to
the frauds which have been practiced
upon them.
We have in our midst agents of
well known, long established compa
nies; and these agents:have their own
reputations at stake, which would be
forfeited by holding out any induce
ments not justified by the hide of the
Case, they are men in whom the en
tire community can repose confidence
which has been well earned by years
of fair dealing and business integritj
and who would scorn to hazard their
reputations by misrepresenting the
merits of the companies they repre
sent. The. history of the business
operations of these
_companies, the
promptitude and fairness mall which
thev have paid kisses in our vicinity,
and knowledge, and the known high
standing of their, agents, constitute
the hestgruTuity 'any one can ask
for security in the future; and we
would advise all who wish to insure
to act in this, as in ova) , other busi;
ness transaction; upon the, .lairt' eat
dietates of prudence and judg
nient, and , not, spend their money up

IFABRENTOIL •
Wisamanox,• June • 9.-JThe -Bed
Cloud Delegation called at the Exee
utive
manekm to4sy, and had an
terview with the President.- It took
place in the Executiveoflhe, the In
dians standing ilia sendchele around
the room The talhwae of short du-.
intim,' end was substantially a. repe
tition of what bee idready, been said
on both aides; in the l eonferenee bedd
between the Indiana and thegovern
tient officials here. Bed Cloud did
not reclinerupon the floor in this in
stanee, as he did 'at 'the council of
Tuesday, but stood upright tad , de;
livered a !Teeth to the' President.
He 'wan alluded to his desire to
have Port Fetterman removed; and
complained , iit , the appearance of
stakes which have been driven in the
vicinity of his reaervatkely survey ?
ing parties. He called attention 'to
Lis (!hildnmi who - mete etanding
arena .in' cant approval' of their
head chiefs oration, and asked that
they might be fed end - clothed, as,
the words of the speaker they were
poor inurnaked4 He :also repeated
what he told Secretary Cox on Tues.-
Ilay, that he was raised , in this, coun
try, but had now come from beyond
the has, where the sun sets, and
wished to have the great father take
pity on him. The Great Spirit had
raised him to live on wild game, but
it was now difficult for him to obtain
it. Before he concluded he told the
President that he was much pleased
with his visit here.
The President replied that he had
always and still desired to live at
peace with the Indian nations. So
long ason official authority existed it
would be used for tne protection
against encroachments of white peo
ple, as well as for the protection of
the whites against tne red men.
Fort Fetterman, he explained to
Bed Cloud, was for' the protection of
both whites and Indians, and might
binged as a base of supplies. The
appropriations which might be made
by Congress for the benefit of In
dians would be expended consistent
ly with what is right to be done. The
Secretary of the Interior had the
proper instructions with regard to
these.
The Indians leaned forward with
eager attention while their. interpret
er, John Richard, vine explaining. to
them the words of the President, and
at its conclusion a rather silent hand
shaking took place as each one Ow;
ed from the room, and the council
with their Great Father was ended.
A comparative statement has been
prepared at the Revenue Bureau,
Showing the increase and decrease
in the revenue from the different
sources for the first ten months of
the fiscal years ending June 30, 1869
and 1870. The receipti from spirits
have increased 22 per cent., tobacco:
38 per cent., incomes 21 per cent.,
and successions 18 per cent. The
decrease is in passports 22 per cent.,
sources not enumerated 55 per cent.,
and penalties 32 per cent. The total
increase of the ten months of this'
par over the ten months of last year
is $21,187,784 13.
The following , additional particu
lars in reference to the robbery of the
420,100 legit' tender notes at the
Treasury on Saturday, have been ob
tained : The notes were taken from
the room of the division of issues,
where they are counted and packed.
On- Sathrday Gen.
_Spinner gave per
mission to several ladies to visit this
room ; and i while passing through the
room the ladies, who were conducted
by a messenger, were joined by two
men, who accompanied them, the
ladies doubtless thinking they were
attaches of the Treasury, and. the
=Wenger supposing they were es
cortin the ladies, nothing , strange
was thought of their presence.
It has been ascertained that therm
menjwere the thieves. ,While passing
through the room one of the men
fell behind the party a short distance,
and at that .time it is believed r_ he
concealed beneath his coat one • of
the packages, which measured 7i
inches long, 7 inches high, and 3
inches wide.

DEMI OP WARM NOM&
LONDON, June . o.—The London
Globe in its last edition ; This evening,
student the community with the an
nouncement that Charles Dickens
bad been seized with paralysis , and
was lying insensible at.us - residence
at Gacishill, near Rochester, in Kent.
The news spread rapidly, and created
the most profound regret,' but the
worst was still to come.
Telegrams have since been received
announcing the death of the -great
novelist, at 'a quarter past six this
evening. Mr. Dickens was at a dia
ller on Wednesday when he was seis
ed with the fit: Dr. - Steel, of the
lege of Stroud, who ,was for many
years the family physician Of Mr.
Dicke ; Was -immediately.. called in
and remained until nearly midnight.
The condition of the patient becom
ing worse; ; it was deemed advisable to
summon physicians from London:
werrepromptly dispatch
'ed,Titgrteffmozming several London
physicians arrived 'at' fGadihill. A
consultagen was held, and the case .
it once pronOUnced hopeless. The
patient sank gradually and died at
fifteen minutes past six o'clock this
evening. Mr. Dickens had been ill•
for several days, bat not ' seriously.
.He had even visited Rochester and
other, points daring the present week.
4.4ov44:JuPizivil;ioffl
Among the passengers on train No.
3, going west on F ri day . morning,
was a maninamed B. 0. Hall, who
with his family were going to Colo
rado _to take up their residence. Mr.
Hall had in his possession the sum
of $1,400 in cash, the accumulation
of many years of labor and saving.
With this sum and his industry he
designed making his fortune in, .the
far west.
AtrSty3quehanna a gentlemanly ap
pearing person took his seat beside
him, and entered into conversation
informing Mr. Hall that he' was a
merchant doing business in Denver,
Colorado, and that he was very 'glad
to fall in with a passenget going that
distance. He gave Mr. H. much in
formation in regard to the western
country, and stated that he had on
board the train a large stock of goods
for his store.
They rode together until after
passing Owego, when another per
son, having an expressman's badge
upon his hat, accosted this pretend
ed merchant, informing him that he
had just received instructions to col
lect the charges on his goods before
reaching *Blmira, or to leave the
goods at that station.- The- charges
on the goods were $1,860.
The merchant expostulated, saying
that he had not the money, but be
had a $2,800 draft on Buffalo, and
he would pay the charges when he
reached that city. The expressman
stated that he would not do, and , he
must have the charges in cash. He
would, however, consent to receive
the draft in payment, and would for
ward_ the difference between its
amount and the charges to the mer
chant by express from Buffalo, 1.-:row
ing, as he did, that the draft was all
right,.
The merchant did not like to do
that, and finally proposed io Mr.
Hall that he take the $2,800 draft as
security, and loan him $1,360 on it
to pay these charges. Mr. Hall read
ily assented and counted Out the
stamps.
The merchant and the eipressman
then went forward to fin receipts, re
questing Mr. Hall to remain in his
seat until the merchant's return when
they would introduce their families
to each other, and enjoy the mselves
hugely during the balance of their
long journey. • -
The balance of the story can imae,cr
ined, The merchant never returned
to Mr. Hill, who had given away to
two villains $1,360 of his bard earn
ing&
kr. Hall retained his seat and his
faith in the merchant- until after he
had passed Homellsville, when he
mentioned the transaction to the con
ductor, who at once Informed him
that lid hid
He took the next train -back, 'and
on reaching this city put . the matter
in the hands- of ' Detective Officer
John Knapp, but as yet- no clue has
been obtained to the swindlers or the
money.—Elmira Advertiser.
The Oregon election seems to
have been carried by both parties,
the Republicans having t h e Legisla
ture, with an 11. S. Senator to elect,
and the opposition securing the Gov
ernoi and. State ticket generally. The
returns 'generally show Republican
gains.
