TUE newspapeis We giving notice that
the earth is about to cross the track of
the November :near, and it is the time
to see shooting stays. The • Derncerstie
party has already seen stars enough to
satisfy the average Derooerst.
IT is no IMS/i job to make allsbirret:
Gem G.UIFIELD is having several made
for him. The trouble is there are so
many ready-made that tbe difficulty will
be to select' the proper one. We guess,
however that , the President-elect, in the
end will have something to say, as to
_ who shall be his constitutional advisers.
TirE South does note appear to be Solid,
after all-The Congressional returns show
that the Republican party is still active in,
some sections. The electoral vote is
Solid, but that was probably brought
aboukby the , desire, apd expectation of
gaining control of the General Govern
ment. --_ Theindications all Point to a live
and successful Republican party in the
South, in the future.
GI~IcAULL GARFIELD remarked on Wed
nesday that the Depocrats, by continuing
to push forward the fraud cry in New
York, were daily extending benefit to the
Republic:lAl cause and damaging them
selves. It is also the General's opinion
that the Democrats hare done what seem-

1 ANS..#O has gone a little further than
any State in prohibitory legislation, by
adopting an 'amendment to the constitu

sale of intoxicating liquors except for
medical, scientific apd mechanical pur

ed by, a majority of 20,000 votes.. Al a

law cannot be changed or repealed except
through a two-thirds vote of each branch

IT should be said, to the credit of the
Democratic party, that it strongly oppo
ses Jolts, Ilsw.t's attempt to create
trouble %as• to the count in New York.
Mr. APGAR of the Democratic State Com
mittee writes • that Mr. Ewa. will get
"cold Comfort" in that line of, business
.froin his committee. The affair is so full
of rascality that it is not surprising that
the better_ element in the Democratic
patty refuses to oountenanoe it. It is,
however, to their credit that they are dis
posed to act so honorably. The motive
that inspires Ep.t.t is so palpable that it
only adds to the absurdity of the affair.

A PRIME object of the famous " Mon
gredien " paluptilet sent oi#, by the Cob
den Club to the " Western Warmers" of
the United 'States was to defeat every
candidate for Congress info would not
pledge himself to veto for such a change'
in the tariff laws as would strike .down
the protection those laws now afford to
-Amsirican labor: The painphlet even
went so far as to formulate the pledge
the' " Western Farmers " were Ito exact
from candidates as the price of agricul
tural support. This was a most imperti-,
nent piece of meddling in the public af
fairs of this country, to come froni- a
writer employed in the interests of for
eign propagandists. Mr.:MON' 11) F.DIEN
has got his answer. Not a single member
was gained to his employers by his pam
phlet, and a decisive number were lost ;
and of all places, the most signal rebuke
to his and their meddling comes from the
distinctively grain-growina States of the
_West, lowa, Minnesota and Kansas. 'The
farmers there have plied up their majori
des mountain high in favor ofj, the candi
dates for Congress who bold that, in fix
ing duties on foreign imports, they shall
:he so levied as to favor American labor.
There were never such majorities in the
agricultural Congressional Districts of
those States before.

There is now a strong probability
that the guilty parties connected
with the forgery of the Morey letter
will be brought to answer for their
villianous crime. Recent develop
ments establish conelusively_ the for
gery ; if any evidence was needed,
and point also unmistakably to the
actors in the plipt to detranit Get.
GARFIELD, and 'defeat his election.
It is to be hoped that the persons
having this investigation in charge
will not permit it to stop until those
who are responsible for the offence
shall be unearthed and punished. To
the crime of forgery has been added
that of subordination of perjury, as
proven by the confessions of two of
the parties.
The men Upon whom the Demo
cratic National Committee depended
to establish - the existence of ; MOREY,
and to prove his vocation, belie made
as clean a breast of it as in the
&two of dirty things was possible.
One, bionght forward to swear to the
existence of Mortar, and to identify
his signature in a forged record, con
fesses that he was engaged by some
body to go to •New York and do the
swearing. That he was taken to the
rooms of the Dellocratic committee
and loged and fed. for two days.
That he was taken to 'the office of
the paper in -which the forged letter
was first. published and prepared for
the witness-stand. That he swore to
a lie, and was paid for it by check
drawn by some persoi at the Demo-
Cratic committee:roouis, which cheek
was for $lOO. • That he is poor and
014 of health, and constrained by
his poverty to accept the bribe of
$lOO for sweaiing3 falsely that he
knew H. L. Moarr and was acquaint
ed with his hand-writing.
Another, having sworn that .: he
knew H. L. IitOBEY, that he travelled
with said' Moarar to Lynii, Mass,
and that he was shown the original
of the fo le tter rgan
e
by H. L. Mo
himself, conf s that he never knew
a man so called, .never went to Lynn
in all- his lifetime, never saw the let

in the interest of troth, and for the

brought to punishment. An offense
of its magnitude should never he

PHILADELPHIA LETTER
i'IIIGADELOO7A. No ember 15, 1810
After a storm comes the calm. So the
political 'pot which , has been boiling
and bhbbling here for months . has
settled down, and peace , and quiet
reigns. Some of the banners yet hang
on the outer walls, as reminders of
the p e litical conflict through which' we
have just passed, and Saturday night the
Republican Invincible* turned out twelve
hundred strong, and went to Reading to
participate in a jollification over the great
victory. But generally the caps and capes
have been laid away, and business runs
on in its regular channels with its accus
tomed quietness. The lengthened . lacia
of the defeated Democrats are beginning
.1
to broaden, and it is possible for them to
indulge ,in an occasional male Here,
very 'much as in Bradford, there sas ex
pression from many Democrats that they
have fought their, last fight under that
iLlg„and that hereafter they will feel at
liberty to act withthe organization - which
'promises best for the interests -of the
country.. There never was, probably,.an
election where the result was so satisfac
tory to the' great 'body of the defeated.
Leaving out of view those who had select
ed the offices they, expected to secure, and
a small band of 'hide-bound partizans
whom nothing could turn from their par
ty, there seems to be a feeling with the
mass of the Democratio voters that after
all, the triumph of the Republican c party ,
is the best thing that could liave'oocur
red. There 'is a general mistreat amongst
therthinking Democrats,- of their South
ern allies, and there was an apprehension
that should success be achieved, there
was no ;telling what evil results, might

Terrible Mee Disaster la Nova Scotia
HALIFAX, Nov. 12—About . 6.30
this morning an explogion of gas oc
curred on the r.outh side of Ford pit,
at Slettarton. •All the miners were
at work in different bandi. The ex
plosion was 'so terrible• as to sweep
quite across to the- other side of the
pit, killing men and horses within,
reach. '• Almost all the men.on the
north side-will be saved, while all at
work on the south side have been
lost. , •
At least sixty are missing. 'Full
particulars are not yet known. Five'
men.have - been• brought up and are
likely to recover. Probably , forty
are shut tip with. the fallen coal on
the south side. The accident, it ,is
presumed, was caused by- some mi
ner tiring a shot in the forbidden
,part of the workings. -
The Foord at Stellarton,' N.
S. where the terrible' disaster occur
red on Friday last, was the scene of.
repeated explosions-during Saturday
night and Sunday, and it was appre
hended that the fire would extend to
all the workings of the mine, and
even endanger the Cave Pit, adja
cent. A trench was bat y esterday
to flood the burning ; pit, as a last re-,
sort. Only two bodies, thOse of men
named IdcGillivary and' Skinner,'
have been taken from the I mine, an
it, frill be long' before the others can
be reached. It is feared that there
may have been fifty men in the mine
who were -unable to escape at the
time of the explosion. ,
