THE PRESIDENTIAL SITUATION.
The following article from the Tri
bune is a fair and candid elucidat ion
of the true issues involved! i in the
pending Presidential question. The
case is plainly and dispassionately
put, and the facts and reasoning up ;
answerable.' The game of brag and
bluster which were expected to foist
TILDEN into the , Presidency has
failed, owing to the vigilance and
courage of the Republican leaders.
Intimidation and misrepresentation
are freely employ=ed—but all will not
avail. The election of ILvi , Es cannot
be set aside by the Democratic tac
tics, -
,and he will b 0 inaugurkted as
I
I certainly as the sth of March arrives.
IWe commend the :Tribuile: _state
ment of the "simpleAssue" tolvery
fair-minded reader:
"'Practically, South Carolina, Flo
rida, and Oregon . .are out of the way'-
In South CarOlina, it appears, even
the house Committee unanifnouSly
admits that ir there was a majority for
all the lIAI ? .Es electors, on the face
of the returns. In Florida the Board
of CanVassers has made two counts,
one-wjth%exercise of judicial power,
and the other, at the .command of the
Supreme Court, according to the Lee
of the returns, and both result
'majority for .Republican electors. In
Oregon the Democratic case, is so
weak and flimsy that the Democrats
who have; respectability and good
sense admit that they cannot' expect
the .Cnosis certificate to he accepted
as having imY validity whatever.
Even if it should be, the Senate will
be prepared to shOw that at least
three of the votes cast fOr Mr. TILDEN
in other States were-cast for persons
constitutionally - ineligible. Thus the
Presidential contest narrows , itself
to a very simple issue: Does the Re
publican certificate -from LOuisiana
represebt the legal vote of that State?
"The evidence is exceedin2;ly con
aicting. llut the Democrats! are no,
longer able to deny• that there hail
been many horrible murders corn
thitt.F.'d prior to the election, and can
did men will form their own opinion
ai to the purpose and effert of the
Thcv will rememhcr that
the state ,of things existing then.
every man who give'S important evi
dence against the Democratg - does so
at the peril of hlg life, while the
members of that party are able to
r:-uarantee • full protection to those
whole:Airy in their favor. The dif
ference whieh this 'fact ought ti) make,
and does make in the credilillitY at
tached by candid men to the evidence'
gathered 'by either party, is inealeu
lable.. It gives the possible reason
for 'believing that 'every fact 'cicu
kited to - help the Democrats can easi
ly be proved, and that abundant tes
timony can also lite manufactured on
that side with great ease tending to
support . statements which are not
facts. On the other haul it is not
easy to belicve that' anymotive can
have bcin brought to bear upon the
thousands of witnes'ses on the Ile-.
publican side strong enough to in
duce them to swear to a lie, and
thereby to . incur the vengeance of
white Democrats and invite speedy
death... ,Beyond dispute, T it must be
i.c(tedingly difficult to get witmlSses
on that side who will establish all
the facts. The :feelings of just and
hunratmtnen all oyer the land will be .
_touched by the incident reported by
tiriegraph as having occurred on
Thursday. A colored witness before
the Senate's Committee detailed
several acts- of violence, and .p . .ave,,
with_great reluctance. the names of
the leaders, and in conclusion asked
the committee what protection would
-be !riven to 'those - ho came here to
testify.' Senator McDosALD told
him if any.persons.inolested him to
report to the committee and they
would be punished. The witness
" If I go home and _et
I cannot report to the committee.'
Senattir IVADLEifin said. ' This is- a
hard case, but We bayeno power to
help you.' Wh:-.1, Honest man does
not feel that a gicat part of the truth
intlst remain unproved under such
circumstances? Is it strange if wit
nesses Itlde in . iimps -until the in
quiry is over. rather than leave hoMe
and family at the summons. of the
committee to tell the truth, with the
conviction' that they may never he
able to return at all or alive ? Yet
the evidence is overwhelming to
prove . that such a state of terror
does exist. Who can believe, in the
face of such proof. gathered under
such difficulties, that, there was a free
and Tair election ?
" This is the Louisiana ease as it
appearS tlins far. On the decision . in
thatcase.the result of the Presiden
tial election now-depends. Democrat
ic bluster and Democratic claims
ought to
. count for nothing. Until
'recently, that party . ..has blustered
loudly about South Carolina,'de
manling that those must be consid
ered scoundrels Who would not count
its vote for Tit..nr,s- The unanimous
conclusions of th l eir own committee
prove that 'those who sa, up these
impudent demands *ere really the
scoundrels, for they were trying to
steal the vote of a - State and to rob
the people of the 'United States of
the right to,choose their rulers. Even
now, though faintly, the Democrats
bluster and demand
. abont Florida,
and Yet they arc defeated when the
board inquires "hap). the validity of
returns, and equally defeated when
it acts ukon the face of the returns.
At first, the ifemociats shouted and

defeat of the popular will. The legal
decision already rendered in Louisi
ana will , be sustained and obeyed;
unless there is strong proof that the
•Retimning Board .has acted unjustly.
At present, the balance of testimony,
on the contrary, is strongly in favor
of that decision."
A NEW WAY oF 'COUNTING
_THE
VOTE.
The Democrats claim that TILDES
is elected, not only by the electoral
vote, but by a popular majority. Per
contra, the Republicani claim that
lI.AvEs has a majority of one in
the electoral college, and would have•
had a popular majority but for in
timidation:,and fraud , practiced by
the -Democracy in the Southern
States. sow, by, adopting the same
ratio of representntyin in all .States
for electors, a sure test is securekl.l
The: rider-Ocean says the basis being
about 135,000 inhabitants to a Rep
resentative, and there being at aver
agelof about one voter for every five
and three quarters inhabitant,
give, in round numbers . , about 23,:)(10
voters to a Representative or elector,
besides two for each State at large.
Dividing the popular vote by 23,500,
the number of electors due each State
will be ascertained. The total number
of voters in Wisconsin, Illinois,Miehi
gan, and Ohio is 1,787,215. ; Now di
vide this by 23,500, and we have 76
electors actually due these States,
while the present, number is only 64.
This is an increase for 1 1LIYES of 12.
Now take the Southern States where
peaceable elections-are
.claimed by
the Democrats to have . been held—
which States are Alabama, Arkansas,
Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky, Mary
land, Mississippi, MisSouri, New Jer
sey, North Carolina, Tennessee, 'Vir
ginia, and 'West Virginia, and we
have a total vote of 2,566.4:33. Di
vide this by 23,500, and we have 109
electors, while the present member is

claimed by including the three (Hs-.
puted States. This-does not include'
the 20,000 intimidated , Republican
voters. Will the Democrats. who
are boasting so frantically about hav-

on these, figures ?

Gov. STEAP.S has his remedy,a:2.ainst
Dnrw in an action "puf 11:01Tard
which he will doubtless bring in due
time. The Talaliasse correspondent
of the New York Vides,says " the
Republicat s here deserve great praise
for their brave floid. Their:victory
li:is been stolen from them by the
order of a court which earns for it
self a questionable " repute through
out the country: The Democrats in
Tir.oE.N•s interest are-chagrined oxer
the result_ as to the Presidential
Electors. They expected, by means
of CpCKE'S resolution; to carry TIL
DEN victoriously through, under the
protection of the court's order. They
are compelled to content themselves
with the lesslir spoils of this judicial
raid."
THE EXAMINATION (IF Mg. A. S.
llEwt'rr,Chairman of the Democrat
ic National Committee, before Mr.
Cox's Congressional Committee on .
Saturday, placed that frisky individ
ual in a very ridiculous plight. He
had asserted that-frOM ten to twenty
per cent of his letters (out of 100 to
300 daily) : hail been-tam pered with
in the New York post office, but
utterly failed to sustain the charge.
lle even denied he' had made it, for
when Mr. Cox asked him what he
was thinking about when' he made
the charge,.Mr.Ewirr 'replied that
he did not make any. , -- It was the
newspapers that made the charge,
and they kneNy they were Misrepre
senting him when they did it ! The .
only two letters he produced as hay
ing been tampered with were shown
by experts to ,have had "a surplus
age of mucilage," a very common
occurence. It was shown by the
Superintendent of the Mailing Dc
partment that in order to have a sys
tematic tampering with a person's
mail there would have to be a conspi
racy of at least a doien men, and
that no such conspiracy could exist
an hour without discovery.

GENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE OF HEPHE
SENTAT'IVES:, I retort. to you my grateful
ackaowledgments for the high honor con
ferred by electing me as your- presiding
officer.: The labors of the position are
great as well as intricate, and many times
difficult to discharge with entirO,satisfac
tion. To you, gentlemen, are entrusted
the protection and encouragement, by
wise and judicious legislation, all the im
portant interests of our great and 'grow
ing Commonwealth, with nearly four
tnil
liu.ts of people. Among these are Our
common schools,
charitable' institutions
and institutions for the prevention and
punishment of crime, which will demand
of us the usual appropriations. I trust
we shall be able to make such liberal al
lowances, as will secure the beneticient
results which come from these institutions:
yet the depression . in all business pursuits
admonish us to give only in snch amounts
as may be absolutely required,
, I)ractlsing
:it all times the must rigid reimiony in the
appropriation of money. This policy will
be expected by our people. :111(1 they
should not be disappointed., - When
the Governor's meSsage is presented tons
with such lecommendations as he may re
gard as wise and beneficial if, adopted:
when this document, together with the
reports, of the heads of departments, are
laid before us, we shall have the informa
tion required to enable us to act - intelli
gently upon the iptestsons t t which I have
entitled. Gentlemen, we have liven : sent
here for our supposed wisdom and integ
,
city. Let our course be, such as to com
mand the respect of the whole people,
and the approial_of our ininletliatw con
stituents.
The , election of Mr. MYER. to the
responsible and honorable pOsition
was advocated by the kaahrff, Repub
licans all over the state, and is a de,
served recognition of his eminent
fitness for the position, no less than
his unflinching, integrity and fidelity.
That his deportment as presiding of
ficer of the House will more than.
realize the high opinions entertained
for him 'by his fellow member
and the Republicans of the State
generally, We do not for a moment
doubt.
The Pr'iw, in noticing the new
Speaker, says: " The nomination of
Mr. MvER is Cordially endorsed by
his rival; and well he may do this;
as the successful man is one of the
most reliable, competent and trust
worthy that has ever occupied a scat
in the Legislature. Ile is personally
respected by political foes as well as
friends. Halt an how alli.yr:the re

A SIITABI Ohio. Dec. 30.—The
most disaL Is railroad accideht
since the Angola horror in 1868 oc
curred at this station, sixty-five miles
east of Clevela4d, last night. A
heavy fall of snow, accompanied by
a! gale of wind, had prevailed during
the day, and on all sides the slur
had drifted into hifge mountains, anft
trains going either way were greatly
delayed. The Pacific express, which
left Buffalo at twenty minutes past
twelve p. m, and was due at this sta
tion at quarter past nine, was over .
two hours late; and upon reaching
the iron truss bridge which spans the
Ashtabula ter a few rods cast of
the station, the structure gave way,
precipitating • the train of eight
coaches and three baggage cars into
the chasm. The bridge was an it?on
truss of 150 lint sPan, the track be
ing sixty feet above water level. The
train was drawn by o'votlocomotives;
the forward one breaking loose from
the other as -the bridge gave way,
and escaped on the very brink of the
fearful gulf; the other engine follow
ing the quivering mass of 'humanity'
and crushing coaches, and adding to
the horror by the rushing steam that
crushed monster.

Hardly had the falling coaches
reached the ground after this fearful
leap ere the flames burst forth .on all
sides, and the bleeding and mangled
bodies became food for the Pitiless
tire. The groans of the dying, the
cries of the wounded, and the ago
niiing appeals of those whose bare
chance for life was being swallowed
up by the flames, rendered the scene
one of unparalleled horror, the recol
lection of which will never be for
gotten by those who lived through
that hour of indescribable agony.
There. were 112 passengers on the
train at the time or the disaster, awl
of this number it is belieVed that

the balance being - an indistinguisha

flesh and bone, horrible to look upon
and entirely beyond identilie:•tion.
The citizens of the 'village about
mile distant from the station, headed
by the ,mayor, tailed out. i://
to the aid of the suiferers.and hotels
and private residences were convert

over the political situation. has I , O:acwhat
suLsided. 'Flit :umom:ccn that Gov.
Hayes had received, beyond the e.;vil of a
doubt, a majority of the votes of the Elec
toral College, seemed to have a very de
cided effect in restoring public confidence,
in quieting the fears and apprehensions
which_ existed with the many, and in al
laying the feelings of alarm and miOrnst
which prevailed so generally in business
circles. The success of the Republican
party, it is felt, not only insures the se
entity of our Government and the liber
ties- of the people, brit it means that the
country shall have another four years of
peace and prosperity. With the bull-
dozers and ex-confedcrates,however,there
is altogether a different feeling manifest
ed. The situation remains unchanged.
War, famine, pestilence, and death are
predicted ; and blood, nothing bat bt od,
will appease the wrath of these disap

Treasur'y would once more he at their

anticipated gradually slipped away from
their eager grasp, mid faded fnult their
