PRESIDENT Mums has been malting
one of his sensible, practical speeches tó"
the Cibcinnati Chamber of Commerce, in
which he said, among others things, that
it had been ids desire to bring it about
that the Government*should be conducted
upon business principles. He could see
the failures and shortcomings of the Gov
ernment, but Abough the accomplishment
of his purpose had been slow, he had
always tried -to keep his face in tho right
direction. Heithen went on to speak of
the improved condition of business
throughout the country.
THE
~B ritish' have serious trouble in
Afghanistan, and the complications proT
ise to be very grave. Recently _Major
CAVAGNAN, who was sent as British Res
ident, was murdered at Cabul, with all
his suite. Several Afghan regiments re
volted, and made an attacZen the British
Embassy ; after a brave defence -the build
ings were burned, and the Residents and
every member of his suite massacred.
The Ameer is powerless to prevent such
occurrences, even if so disposed, which is
doubtful. With all her wars with half
eivilifekand savage rulers, England has
her hands full.
THE people who mine:axil dig "into
the bowels of the' earth without impedi
ment," but as "Nature abhers a vacuum,"
so the results of their toil sometimes pro
duce unpleasant consequences. When
large areas are robbed of the coal which
supported the superincumbent earth and
rocks which cover it, if sufficient is not
left the ground has a way of sinking,
which is both alarming and inconvenient
to the people who live in the neighbor
hood. Frequently in some mining town
they have; a scare of this kind, And not
unfrequently , with—serious damage to
property, Mahoney Plane, in Schuylkill
county, is now having an experience of
this kind. It is said that it is only a mat
ter of time befqe. most of . the town will
cave in,leaving an awful gulf as a warning.
THE iron trade is feeling the revival of
business more distinctly, perhaps, than
any other branch. All descriptions of
iron have largely advanced 'in price, and
nails particularly. The busy workshopk
mills and factories all over the country,
give assurance that better times are at
hand. A general feeling of encourage'
meat and lopefulneSs prevails—public
confidence is being restored, and all,legiti
mate business conducted prudently and
economically is affording reasonable
profits. This better state of affairs is
first felt im the great commercial and
manufacturing centres, but in time it will
spread its beneficent influence over the
wliole country. Bradford being almost
exclusively an agricultural county, will be
slow to feel the favorable reaction, but
there is comfort in the knowledge that
the "good time coming" is not a long
way off.
THE Chairman of the California Re
publican State Committee sums up the re
sult of the late election in that State by
< s ng that the victory is complete and
"four Republican Congressmen elected.
PERKINS plurality for Govevnor is over
21,000.
In Maine, official returns from the en
tire Stale, with the exception of twenty
small towns and plantations as follows:
D Is i(Renublican), 68,012 ; Sstmt
iGreendack), 47,088; GARCELON (Demo
crat), 21,181.
The Republican plurality over the
Greenback ticket is 20,924, and over the
Democratic ticket, 46,831. As far as
heard from there were 311 scattering
votes Cast. The returns from the remain
ing towns *ill not materially change the
above result. The. Legislature is largely
Republican. The victory is subst4ntial
and satisfactory. ' •
TuIDEN's consummate skill at manim
lation was/shown in the proceedings
the New York Democratic Conventiini,
which met last week. That body was so
strongly TILDEN that the Tammany del
egates were admitted to seats, in the vain
hope of placating JOHN KELLY and his
followers. But they refused to be com
forted, and anticipating the renomination
of Governor ROBINSON, walked out of the
Convention in a body. Governor ROBIN
sox was then placed in nomination, re
ceiving 243 votes to 56 votes cast for Gen.
HENRY W. SLOCUM ; CLARESON N. POT
TER, of West Chester, received a unani
mous nomination for Lieutenant-Gover
nor, and:the ticket was completed by re
nominating the present Statd officers, as
follows
Secretory of Bkas—Allen C. Beach, of
Jefferson.
Controlter—Frederick P. Olcott, of New
York.
Treasurer—James Mackin, of Dutchess:
Attorney-General Augustus Schoon

The ibolting Tammany delegates, with
a fewpihers, held a Convention of their
own,
E , presided over by DAVID DUDLEY
Fiump,,Mul nominated JOHD KELLY as a
candidate Tor Governor. In accepting the
nomination he saidhe did not expect to
be elested Governor, but ho did expect to
d treat a mau who had inflicted outrages
on the people of Now York. Efe,partieu
k 'sited many of these offences, and mkt
d. bent would tend to purify the party:
SOUTHERN JUSTICE.
The trial of theOHIIIIOLW murder
ers' has 'resulted, as was anticipated,
in the acquittal of the accculked Par
ties. The jury,witer halt an hours,
absence returned 'a verdict of not
guilty. A greater btirlesque snit
mockery of justice 'was never enact
ed, than this' outrageous acquittal of
the red 7 handed assassinators of Judge
Cursuozm, his : : daughter and son.
The trial itself was only brought
about by the eipreresion of indignant
public opinion. It would never do
to permit the accused to go free
without the form of a trial. So
much was extorted by public opin
ion in the North. But public opin
ion as influenced by the half civiliz
ed and' barbaious conditions of
Southern society would not permit
punishment for a deed, which how
ever cowardly -ami brutal, Was done
forlhe purpose of deterring Repub.
Beans from exercising the preroga
tives of freeinen. To shoot down
men and children ,for asserting the
light to speak and vote is no offense
and there is no Court and no law to
punish the perpetrators.of the dead.
The particulars of the Cutsuorm
tragedy though it occurred two
,yetirs ago, are , still, fresh in the pub•
lie recollection. The circumstances
attending the bloody tragedy; were
so revolting and 'horrible, as to shock
the country. Judge CHISHOLM was
one of the leading citizens of Kem
per county, Mississippi.- He had re
sided there 'twenty-siz years. °He
'was a native of Georgia. He was,
before the wari a Whig. Dukiag
the war his aymimiies. were with. the
South. • He wad a short time in the
militia service, PRA, :during most of
the war period he was probate judge
of :that county.: During' the period
of reconstruction • he became the
leader of the' Republican party in his
county, and it gave steady Republi
can majorities until 1875. As soon
as Ais civil disabilities were removed
he -was appointed sheriff of his coun
ty, to which place he was twice re
elected, but he was defeated in 1875
through Democratic intimidation of
the negro voters.
In 1676 the Judge was nominated
for Congress, by the Republicans of
the Third Mississippi district as their
candidate for Congress agaist Motif.;
the Democratcloo candidate. He was
allowed to speak in. the early part of
the canvass but the aggressiveness
of the Democrats increased as the
election- day apprdhched, and the
judge, in consequence, made very lit
tle attempt to keep his latter 40:oint
ments, being warned by certain of
his Democratic friends that his life
was in danger if he did. In common
with thousands of other Republicans
he did not think it prudent to attend
the polls, and, the returns from the
election district showed a large ma
jority for TILDEN and 11Rn:omits
and MONEY.'
Finally, th 4. Democratic moil which
had been hounding 'him for months.,
trumpe l d up a charge against, Cl[lE
-110131, and some of his friends, that
they might be imprilidned,, and thus
be the helpless victims of their atro
city. He made no resistance, and
went quietly with the Sheriff, folloiv-
WI by his family and' a neighbor,
ANGUS MCLELLAN, who took the
precaution to carry with him a load
ed shot-gun. They were all admit
ted Rio the jail, but . MCLELLAN was
soon ordered out and left the gun
behind. Mrs. enisuotal toward even
ing went home, taking her youngest
child, WILLIE, with her. When about
'to return she again heard reports of
the shot-gun and saw two of th?l
GULLY boys 'firing at MoLzu./th.
Leaving WILLIE in a negro cabin;
she returned to jail, passing on her
way the dead- body of MCLELLAN.
She found a mob headed. by ROSSER
and the GULLYS, trying to get into
the jail. CoanzwA,, looking through
the windows - of -the jail, received a
charge of shot from outaide.'T ROSSER
and others trying to break through
the inner door, were resisted by CLAY
and JOHNNY Chisholm, the latter a
boy of thirteen. The door giving
away slightly, ROSSER discharged
one barrel of his gun through the
opening and blew little JOHNNY'S hand
off. Thelatter threw himself scream-
ing into his father's arms. Rosetta
at tht}t moment broke in and throw
ing CORNELTA, who interposed, vio
lently against the wall, discharged
the remaining barrel of his gun at
Judge CHISHOLM but the contents
were all received by little JOHNNY,
who was instantly killed. His father;
maddened at the eight, caught up the
gun left by McLELLAN and sent its
whole charge into ItbssEses head,
scattering the Mains against the wall.
The mob retreated at this, and Mrs.
entsnoLm was able to) get into the
jail to her family.
The cry being raised that the jail
was on fire, they determined to take
their chances outside. As they were
going out, bearing the dead both of
JOHNNY, they were - met by liHNRY
GULLY, with his gun aimed at'; the
Judge. CORNELIA interposed and
had her arm shattered by.the bullets;
her father also was wounded in the
neck and face. In the 'street the as
sault was from all sides. The de
voted daughter would not leave her
father, but this was no obstacle to
the mob, who fired shot after shot at
the two, and only desisted when they
thought their work was fully accom
plished and'ihe Judge was dead.
Thirty bullet-holes were afterward
counted in Commut's clothing,
which was one mass of blood, from
the silk hood she wore to her shoes.
Both she and her father lingered in
great agony for several days before
they died. The last whispered words
of Judge Cuisnont to his wife were
these: precious wife, I am
uhaut is die t bat when I am gone I
want you tb, tell my children • that
their father never did an act in his
life for which they need blush or feel
ashamed. I am innocent or the
charge these men have preferred
against me'and 'have been murdered
beciuise I am a Republican and would
live a free man."
These facts were proven Upon the
trial, by the testimony of' the widow
ed mother, and by - other reputable
*itnessea, yet the chiyalruiri instincts
Of a Southern jury saw nothing
wrong in the brutal murder , of a
(young girl and/boy, because their
father held to his political principles.
How long would it. be after these
ruffian; came into power, before simi
fir means would be employed to put
down the Republican party, and the
shot-gun would rule the land ? This
verdict of acquittal is a disgrace and
stigiva not only upon Mississippi
but 'upon the Nation. It - is . -a _ blot
/ upon our National reputation. It
proves that if there is anything of
correct public sentiment in the South,
it is powerless before the desperadoes
and ruffians who make public men,
and, who even invade and pollute the
temples of justice.
THE SOLID 11011111.
No one seriously lineations that if
the voters of , the Southern States
could cast theft. ballots without fear,
that there would be a large majority
for the Republican President in 1880.
PreviOus elections have shown decid
ed Republican majorities in Con
gressional districts where now not a
dozen Republican votes can• be had.
The means by which such a result
has been brought about are apparent
to every one. They are ad clear as
not to be susceptible of denial. The
Mississippi plan, as illustrated at
Yazoo, by the Cuff:nowt murder, by
the exodus of an ignorant pepPle
fleeing from their persecutora, 4- and
the well-authenticated instances of
planned outrages to intimidate, and
assassinate Republican leaders, all
show as-clearly as the noon-day sun,
bow the South has been made solidly
Demodtatie.
Having -thus wiped out the Repub
lican vote in the South, ; and made
certain that by such persuasions as
the shot gun. -and the revolver,. the
vote of the late slave states -can be
cast for the Democratic candidate for
President, it is expected that a suffi
cient number of Northern voters will
enddrpe the methods and brutalities
of the South, to elect the Democratic
candidate. If this succeeds, what,
then? Every Northern voter should
pondek the question well. He shduld
consider seriously , the conditiod of
affairs in the South, remembering
'that every Southern State is under
the management and dominatioir of
the Confederates. There is now no
reason for exasperation at federal in
terference, not excuse for violence
because of carpet-bag rule. Yet not
vrithatanding they are enjoying all
h 0 . 3 ,, ever claimed in the way of local
self govepiment matters have gone
frdm bad to worse, in the administra
tion of state affairs, while lawless
violence, and political bull-dozing
his grown on every. year more brutal
and- unconcealed. The political rights
of the citizen are denied him, .elec 7
tions have become a farce, or scenes
of bloody intimidation, and property
and person are in jeopardy unless
political opinions are sacrificed. Is
there an honest, intelligent voter in
the North who is willing so to cast
his ballot as to strengthen and per
petuate this disgraceful 'and danger
ous condition of affairs?
The. Democratic leaders count
upon the Solid South, in estimating
their chances for success in 1880:
Not only thii, but they encograge
the situation there, - and of cuse the
perpetrators of all the disgraceful
outrages upon Southern Republicans
accepting and excusing them as legiti
mate, because contributing to Demo
cratic success through their solidify.;
ing process. This is a serious ,
arraignment, but does not the action.
of the Democratic leaders justify it?.
The Ncirthem Democracy has be
come, as it was, in the times of slavery
propagandism, the,nierc tool and ad
junet of the South. The race' of
dough-faces is. not extinct. They
spring up, like toad-stools in a
pasturelot, and will continue to exsist,
so long as there are flesh pots to be
eaten. They are tile defenders of
the peculiar methods of the Southern
leaders. They are the , apologists for
the brutalities and outrages perktra
teii upon. the defenceless colored
man, and the white Republican voter.
In the past they have ° sought- to ex
cuse the etcesses of the bull-dozers
upon the ground of passions aroused
by carpet-bag rule and the prejudice
against color. :Now however, when
no such reason?: can be urged, they
fire silent when the same unlawful
means are employed to coerce the
voter, because ; the results are sup
posed to be favorable to Democratic
success in the Presidential' contest.
We have asked, should' the Presi
dency be arried by such means, and
the Southern bulklozers be placed
in possesbion of the . government,
what then? Admitting that the per
son and property of the Northern
citizens would not be jeopardized,
what would be the effect upon the
RePublicans of the South? And
what would be the effectin a Nation
al point of view . ? The South has
shown that the men who rule there
have no respect for the lives or
rights of those who do not agree
with -them `politically. There is no
healthy political condition in the
Southern States. Violence and an
archy. virtually are supreme and con
trolling. There are no political
privileges to -be exercised—but the
shot-gun rulqi. The laws are power
less and justice sits paralyzed upon
the bench. Shall such infinences
rule the country? • Or is it not bet
ter to continue the Republican party
in power, until the South shows some
signs of & return to orderly and law
ful conditions? A solid North is
essential to the peace and prosperity
of "the country, so long as - a Solid .
South means the violent disfranchise,
ment of the Republican voter, and
anti! there can be some security that
the ballot,boxes of that seetion• are
free alike to both parties. This'can
only be brought about by , such a
demonstration on the part' of the
Northern voters as i shall rebuke the
proscriptive and brutal course of the
Southern, politician, and show the
Northern Democrat that there i
nothing to be gained' by encouraging
them in their excesses.
Tuz Superintendentof the Census
Bureau has issued a circular in rein
lation to the office of enumerator un
der the census hiw, in which the du
ties 'of that office are defined and
other information in relation to o the
discharge of those duties given. The
duties, in the main, ara identical with
those of assistant marshal under the
last three censuses, but the provisions
of the law regarding the time and the
size of the enormous districts make
the office differ widely from the for
mer. •
Under the old law, sub-divisions
were limited to 20,00 G inhabitants,
while by the present law they are
limited to 4,009, and will be gener
ally confined to a single town, where
the number may be even less. By
the old law, from June 1 to Novem
ber, 1, was allowed for the enumera
tion, wipe under the present statute,
it is required to be made in June,
and in cities of , more than 10,000 in
habitants, in two weeks from the first
Monday in June. The aggregate
amount of compensation to an enum
erator cannot exceed $lOO, as but
one month's time is allowed, and the
pay not to exceed $4 per diem.
Township assessors and other local
officers, postmasters at small offices,
etc., are suggested as men likely to
perform the work faithfully and in
telligently. County physicians, with
in the circuit of their usual practice,
would, it is thought; often make ex
cellent enumerators. Schoolmasters
have largely been found in England
among the best qualified enumera
tors.
- ALEXANDER BRYCE, postmaster at
Walhalla, S. C., under General
GRANT'S adrainistration, was murder
ed "by parties unknoln" on Monday
night, the Ist instant, near his home.
His father was . a Union man during
the war, and BRYCE, ever since he
was old enough to "vote, has been an
active Republicin. He served in
the Legislature from 1868 until 1871,
and was afterwards county treasurer
of Oconee county.. He was the or
ganizer of the Union League in Pick
ens county. During the campaign
of 1876 . he boldly combated the
HAMPTON movement in that county,
and led the forlorn hope to the polls
against the Democracy. He entered
upon the ',reorganization of the Re
publican party in his county several
weeks ago, and fearing his influence
in the campaign of 1889, the Demo
crats made him "lake • the conse
quence." When shot, he had been
to the house of his brother-in-law,
Jrasz F. Cox. An hour after dark
they started for BRYCE'S house. On
theway they were accosted by horse
men, one -of whom asked who were
present. Cox replied that it was he
and BRYCE, whereupon one of the
men immediately fired upon BRYCE.
Three shots were discharged, all of
, -
them taking e ff ect in the body of
BRYCE, and causing instant death.
A PAPER by FRED DOUGLAi3S, Mar

shal of the District of Columbia. was
read before the Special Science Con.

the negro of the Staith since his free
dom has overcome the adverse criti
cism of his race by pursuing a line of
Conduct that is peaceable and honest.
His sufferings he intends to evade , by
emigration, a quiet withdrawel of his
bon& and muscles from the South,
and nothing has occurred since his
abolition that has so startled that
country. To him is attributable its
Wealth'; and he can blast or bless

THE next Democratic outrage will
be to have ORTR 9 S Congressional
seat from Indiana contested by his
defeated opponent, and/turn the Re
publican member out. ?this has been
decided on since the California elec

the event of the Presidential election
being thrown into the House. In
diana now has six Democrats, six
Republican, and Greenback PARSON
DE LA MATYR, in the House. One
less Republican and one more Dem,

control of the delegation to. the Dem
berate.

LETTER PROM PHILADELPELL
PHILADELPHIA, SeFtember 15, 1879
The Nominating Conventions met oil
Thursday last, and named the candi
dates for City offices. The result is the
breaking of the "slate," and an entirely
" new deal." For once the leaders 'have
yielded to public opinion, and pay defer
ence to the wishes of the voters. The
nominee, for Sheriff is Enoch Taylor, who
has been for fifteen years Chief Deputy
in' that office, having been retained by the
present incumbent, who is• a Democrat.
He is well advanced in years, haa the rep
utation of being an efficient officer, and
has the confidence of the business public.
The nominee for Regititer, William Tay
lor, is at present Register of the Water
Department, and has trilled several posi
tions 'of trust with credit to himself. Jo
seph J. Martin, the candidate for City
Treasurer, is aibusizess man of good rep
utation. The ticket is an excellent one,
and will be elected by a large majority.
While it is really as much the creation of
the leaders as was the "slate," which has
just been so thoroughly' smashed, yet it
meets the public dipectation, and will
go through with a rush. Mr. Hill, who
had been named for the Sberiffalty, had
the Convention by a large majority, and
had he insisted, would have been nomi
nated. It is greatly to his credit, that for
the sake of party unity and success, he.
gracefully wirlaire,W .when the coveted
prize was within his grasp. The Repub
- publicans in the city will now present the
undivided front; and will give the City
and State ticket dyousing majority.

evening, in honor of the recent Republi

crowd which had assembled to see the py

The'State Fair of the Pennsylvania Ag
ricultural Society 'opened at noon on
Tuesday last, iu the Main Building, with
"the usual ceremonies. The attendance,
so far, has_ been very large. It is to be
regretted that the display does not come
up to what :might reasonably be expected
of this great State. It was supposed that
if the Fair was held in Philadelphia
which is so conveniently located near the
Agricultural portions of the State that
there would be a collection showing the
progress and capabilities of the produc
tiveness of the Commenwealth from the
soil, and from the skill of her mechanics.
A disappointed visit was the result - of a
hasty examination, for. there have been
County Fairs which have displayed better
stock, finer vegetables, and infinitely more,
objects of interest than this. The popu
lation of the lower counties of the State,
so rich in their agricultural productions,
is made up chiefly of a class of peOple who
don't care for display, and who look
sharply after the almighty dollar. They
are industrious, prudent, and thrifty, op
posed to innovations and new inventions,
and are a quarter of a century behind the
other sections of the country, in the pro
gress they have made. • They are not the
people to make a State Fair successful iu
the way of contributing to its exhibition,
and the managers should learn a lesson
by their experience this year. Financial
ly it will be a success, as the prestige of
the Centennial and the prospect of seeing
the attractions of the PermanentExhibi-
Lion will bring many visitors.
