1301MIIER,N REPUBLICARISIII
'There can be no question that if the South
`ern States which have been or are to be: re-
stored to their Federal relations do not hold
'Lithe balance of power in the next Presidential
canvass; they will at least exercise a potent in
.s4lnence. upon the result of that as well as all
4 tsuceeeding elections. In view of this fact it is
be regretted'that the Republican party in
i the Sonth - has not in the past been more care
..ll;lly fostered and sustained by the National
Republican organization. To this negligence
may, in nolficonilderable - degree, be — altribiked'
the 'defeat of the Republican party in the re
cent pleetiOns in Virginia and Tennessee. It
,-is, true that the result in those States was not
*.entirely due to this cause, for in both States it
was in a great measure owing to sectional, local
or : Personal jealousies causing a want of bar
. mony and co-operation among the Republicans
thereof.
The success of the faction of Republicans in
Virginia, which bolted the regular nominal=
and Placed tbe Walker tieket yr the' field, was,
perhaps, chiefly due to the neutrality of the
•
administration, and to the', openly avowed
sympathy of many leading Republican jour
nals in the North. Had • the administration
been as fully committed against the "Comer
,l4ativeßepublican" movement in Virginia as it
4, is against analagous pOlitleal combinations in
and Texas, the Walker party would
have at once lost' prestige; and thousands of.
Tirdinians who earnestly desire peace, her
s Anony and reconstruction, believing that
through' such alone their State can !be re
stored to greatness and prosperity, and who, to
• that end, stood ready to co-operate with the
Administration and the Republican party into
whose hands the destinies of the nation have
• been committed for three consecutive Pres
idential terms, would have withheld from Mr.
• Walker their support, and the scheme df the
rebel Democracy to secure a return ItO•;polit
ical power in the guise of ConSernative Re
- publicans would thus have been frustrated.
It is . not by any means too late to :repair the
•1. errors of the . past; there are in the%State •of
Virginia elements which when thoronghly or
ganized and coalesced, will forni one •of the
most powerful Republican parties existing lin
any State of the Union. Shorn of its strength
~ as it was by defection in the recent election, it
-still polls more than one hundred and nineteen
thousand votes for its candidates, Mr. Walker
,receiving a little more than one hundred .and
nineteen thousand votes. We believe that the
men who, notwithstanding the immense,pres
, sure which .was brought to bear upon them
during the most bitter Political contest ever
theiitate,_Voted_for _Governor_Wells,
will notbe easily shaken from their allegiance
to the fiepubliCan party; while on the con ;
trait', the adherents of Mr. Walker are noto
7iously inharmonious and radically at variance
With each other upon many vital questions of
State. policy which are sure to arise just •so
soon as legislation beginS. It is universally
conceded that as a party it must fall asunder
the moment the "cohesive power of public
plunder" ceases, in consequence of the distri
bution of offices to exercise its influence.
44 . 4 Tlle Republicans of the South should be
encouraged to preserve a firm and unbroken
front, and they should receive the most active
s"Sympathy and support froth their allies n
through
.,
Ai out the Union. Let the same interest be shown
in a closely Contested election in the South
that is manifested in regard to elections in the
Northern States. Why should the best talent
"'''''of - the party be sent into Maine, Connecticut,
••,-, Ohio or Pennsylvania, and the Republicans of
the Southern States be left to fight unaided

THE lASI FENIAN SCHEME.
The Fenians, with their customary magnifi
cence when planning a campaign, have cut out
for themselveS, in the conflict which they now
declare to be approaehing, a piece of work
which combines audacious conception with
near y nnpossi Ile execu ion in thM — fel . , •
manner which is peculiar to ,Irishmen and
Fenians. It is announced that a movement is
to be made upon Canada by an army "in per
fect discipline and ready to take the field," and
that this enterprise will, in the opinion of
,the
leaders, receive the material aid and. sympathy
'of the United ,States. When these valiant
wearers of the green arrive in the Dominion
- .theywill;aseertainthe poSition - of Prince-Arthur
and move upon his works with the declared in
tention of capturing him and, holding him as a
hostage until England, deciareS the independ
dence•Ofhland., Amusing as this programme
is, we doarot doubt that there are Irishmen
whose enthusiasm will permit theM to - be
hided int,!cl its support. :Forgetting that men
who'arejirerious earnest do not' diSclose their
deep laid schemes M the newspapers ; that the
existence of perfeCtly drilled Fenian army is
'an impossibility ; that the United States gov
ernment stands pledged to critsh any attempt
to wage war upon Canada ; and that the seizure,
of Prince Arthur, if by any combination of
'apparently impossible circumstances it could
be consummated, would arouse a tempest of
popular indignation in this country, and pro-
Cure the instant interference of this Govern
ment—forgetting all this,. there are, , We fear,
Midgets and Patricks who will. he ready to
band over their earnings to the hungry sharks
nr ,New York, who pretend to. manage the
Fenian organization. This well-advertised
scheme• is merely
, the pmtnat for 'a fresh
onslaught on hired girls and hod-carriers, and
if its authors lived outside of, the jurisdiction of
Sympathetic New York courts, we should advise
their arrest upon a. charge of obtaining money
upon false pretences. As it • is, the credulous
will have to suffer, and the' timid among the
Blue Noses must be perrnittedto tremble. But
the;pretty princely warrior may be Drell as-
sured that his person is saf, anal that he will
nothe called upon to lead the militia on to in
glorious retreat, and to a renewal of the rlisas
terwhich disgraced' "The Queen's Own" in
the last Fenian raid. The 1 e .ians have •no
greater thirst for slaughter and gore than Ar
thur and his cohOrts, ar d if their appetites
should become dangerous we will take care of
them on this side of the border before they can
get within shooting distance of a Dominion
man.
'The murder mania seems to increase rather
than diminish. Since our allusion to the sub
ject on Saturday last there have been four cases
of attempted assassination, two of which have
resulted - fatally; - 01.1 Saturday - nig , • •
• was mortally wounded 'by some rowdies, w
attacked him ; -Without provocation, at Thir
teenth and Wood streets; on Monday evening
a man was shot on a passenger-car at Sixth and
Arch streets, and yesterday there was a homi
cide.at Frankford, and a man, shot in the First
Ward. This is a record , of three days; what
the rest of the week will bringforth we can
only, Imagine, but it is not unlikely that we
shall have other tragedies to record. In the
meantime we recommend to the authorities
the exercise of a little more promptness in
bringing ofienders to justice: and to Mayor
Fox a consideration of the fact that this law
lessness in the open streets is due, in some
measure, to his reckless discharge of experi
enced policemen, and his appointment of
-incompetem; -- and-Lworthless7-men---hr—their
places.
The Age, in undertaking to defend McMul
lin's outrageous conduct in the Board of Alder
menpinisstates the case completely. The cause
of-MeMullin's-dissatisfaction-was'- not-that-the
legal number of Democratic election officers
were not appointed for the Fourth Ward, , but
that Mc:Mifflin's peaceable and upright friends
wine not selected for the various positions.
The Boat•d fully understood the character of
their billow Alderman, and of the gentlemen
Whom 1w had2chosen for their approval, and
McMullin's wrath was evoked by the sturdy
determination of the Board to checkinate his
plans. The ..;lilf - ; expresses Republican opinion
completely when it says, "The men who would
conspire to cheat at an election would pick a
pocket or tire a horse ;" but it is possible that
these words may not only - simply condemn
some of the political friends of the, Age, but
express a truth which is founded Upon ex
perience of their lawlessness.

[Special Despatch to the Bulletin,'
Hannistsurto. September 15.—0 n the 3d
inst., P. Gray Meek, of the 13elle (ante Watch.
man, published in his pallor a double-leaded
article with 'the astounding canard that
George S. Twitchell had mien let out of prison,
through the connivance of the Governor, he
night beforehe was to have , been executed,
and that the dead body found in the cell on
• the following morning was not that of Twitch
• - ell, brit of another person substituted in his
• place. AL the time of its publication no no
tice Was .taken - of the absurd' story; but
the. Democratic press generally through
out the State having given extension
circulation to Meek'S assertion, Gov.
ernor Geary deemed it but fast to 'himself
to write to Peter Lyle,
the Sheriff of Philadel
phia, and to William B. Perkins, the: Prison
keeper there, both of whom are involved in
the, sensation, and this morning a letter was
received from CoL Lyle denying the whole
story as a wicked and absurd fabrication. Mr.
Perkins sends an affidavit, sworn to and sub.
scribed by himself, the phyltician in attend-
Mice, and all the attaches of the prison in any
' way concerned in z the matter, tothe effect dna
there is no possible doubt as to the fact of the
body being that of To-admit. The letters are
somewhat lengthy, and are a complete refuta
tion of the dirty slander.

TIIE A.TONDALE DISASTER.
The Verdict of the Jury.
The following is the complete verdict or the
Coroner's jury in the Avondale disaster:
That the said Palmer Steele and others came
to their deaths in the Avondale mines; that
the cause of their death was the exhaustion of
Atmospheric air; or a prevalence of sulphuric
and carbonic acid gases in the said Avondale
mines, caused by the burning of the head
house and breaker at said mine on the Gth day
of September, thereby. destroying : the air
courses leading from the. mine . through
the shaft; that the - fire originated. from

system of mining in a large number'of mines
now working by shafts as insecure and unsafe
to the miners,and would strongly recommend,
in all cases where 'practicable, two places for
ingress and egress,.and , a more perfect ven
tilation; thereby rendering a greater security
to the lives of the miners under any similar ac
cident.

The money market was moderately active at seven per

The Tribune says editorially :
We ore credibly informed that certain tinauciers of
our city, in combination with European Lvapitalists.have
conspired to buy awl withdraw from use thirty millions
of gold, with intent to compel those who must pay gold
at the Custom House or elsewhere to buy of them at ex
orbitant rates.
We call upon the Secretary of the Treasury to take the
• needful steps to ascertain the facts. and, if there be such
a combination, to use-the power lodged In his hands as
the public good requires. The Treasury has gold
to sell—a good pile of it— and it is
tho Secietary . s duty to sell it when the
market. is highest. If, then, • the conspira
tors put up the price of gold, let him improve the op ,
portunity to obtain such price for as many millions of
that commodity as the market will take. And,to preclude
all pretence that he thereby makes money (greenbacks)
"tight,” let him buy bonds as fast as, he sells - gold, so as
to leave the money market totally unaffected.
Mr. Boutwell can surely ascertain that such conspiracy
— does - or doesnot exist ,•• If-it does,weaubmit•thathis.dutY
is plain and imperative—to sell gold- so long us the
market will take It, and invest the proceeds in bond

HEROIC.CONSUIS:
The Conti=la of Great Britain and the
• rotted Statio Interpose their Flagg and
Persona to Wive a Cuban Befugee.
The London Herald publishes the folloWing
remarkable story, which we give to our
readers with a recommendation that, it be
taken with a grain of salt: •
• The following interesting and exciting nar
rative of which we published a short tele
graphic account a few trays ago, is extracted
from the Jamaica Guardian of August 7, to
which it was furnished , bya correspondent
who recently-escaped from Santiago de Cuba,
where he was persecuted by the Spanish
volunteers in eonsetjuence of being suspected
as "'a Cuban sympathiser."
Nr.liamsden, the consul, being well known
and greatly respected in Kingston, the subject
has been one of general' conversation, while
his heroic conduct has called forth expressions
of universal admiration. The narrative runs
thus:
" A poor mafortmuite seaman • had been ap
prehexided on
- _a charge of being implicated in
filibusterineexpedition, and. lie - Waii - tlirtii4 --
into prison, and afterwards condemned to be
shot,-on evidence as unlikely and improbable
as any one could conceive. lie was an Amer
ican. the son of English parcnts,and, notwith
standing the strenuous efforts on the part of
the English and American Consuls, the Span
ish authorities seemed determined to sacrifice
this poor man's life. On the morning appointed,
for his execution he was marched out to the
usual place, amidst a great show of bloody so
lemnity. He was immediately followed by Mr.
Ramsden, British Vice Consul,and the Ameri
can Vice Consul, to make a still further pro
test in the prisoner's favor.
"Mr. Ramsden read the document, protest
big that the prisoner was altogether innocent
of the charge which had been laid against
him, demanding his immediate release, and
declaring . , if the unfortunate man's life was
taken, those who took it would be guilty of
.murder,..and.w.oulithealikeausweratole to th -
governments of England and the Cater
States of America. During the reading o: ,
this document, which was done with calmness
and determination, the prisoner fainted from
excitement, and there were strong signs of
impatience on the part of the Spanish troops,
who manifested a thorough determination to
-force-the-authorities-to-take-this-man's-life iu
spite of all remonstrance. ,
" A 'consultation followed; and Mr. Rams
den and the American Coniml were eventually
informed that their remoi:strance came too
late; the prisoner bad ab•eni-y been sentenced
to death for having taken up arms 'against
Spain, and that the sentence must be carried
into effect. "With this the order was given to
the firing party to present.' It was the work
of an instant, and Mr. Consul Ramsden and
the American Consul; rushin ,with the flags
of their respective nations before - the leveled
rifles of the Spanish troops, and in front of the
unfortunate! man, shouted • Hold!'
And, throtkifig the English flag around
himself and the prisoner, and addressing the
afliCer in charge of the firing party, said :
'Gentlemen ,as a consul of her Britanie Majesty,
I cannot stand silently by and see this foul
murder of an innocent man. It is my duty to
protect his life, and if you take his, you must
take it through these "—placing himself im
mediately in front of the - condemned seaman;
his eyes i;parkling, while his manly form
heaved with the indignation his speech had so
heroiCally. expressed. The American con
suli_wrapped. in the ''Stars and Stripes'
and for
'Seine moments the 7 Spanitirds'atood -- aghasfi:
the conduct :f;of these two consuls--being more
'than they could comprehend. — The emotion of
`the 'prisoner was extreme; ho Was supported
'right and loft by the consuls, and the poor fel
low shed a profustOn'of tears from weariness
and excitement. .A consultation was again
held, and the prisoner , marched back to, jail
under artesoOrt of troops, the consuls support
ing the nnbappyman all the, way along. The
furore was beyond deacription, After dark
the prisoner wasreprieved,and finally shipped
off the country•througlt the, indefatigable
ertions of the consuls..', • •

THE CUBAN QUESTION::
GENERAL SICICLgI3I3 NOTE
The Great"' Powers 'Favorable to the
Rights of Spahii.
The Depressed State of Capital and Labor
in England.
By the Atlcuitle Cable:
MAnnin, Sept. 15.—The journals of this city
assert that the Government recently sent a
circular letter to the great powers of .Europe'
respecting the note from General Sickle's,the
American Minister, on the subject :of, the
recognition of Cuba and' that replies
favorable to, the rights of' Spain have been re
„ceived from England, France and Austria.
, :ptember-15.---Therg -
meeting of cotton merchants, spinners and
manufacturers at Manchester, last evening,
for the pu • rpose of considering the condition
of trade in Lancashiie. Speedhes were made
and resolutions adopted. One of the latter
asserted that it was expedient to form an asso
,
ciation to urge Parliament - to grant an inquiry
into the causes of the depressed state of capi
tal and labor. It was also resolved to hold a ,
series of public meetings in , the principal
towns of England. The want of reciprocity,
the French treaty, and the system of .Amen
can imports — and Englislr - experts - were geii
erally condemned. ,
lILATINERS IN GENERAL.
Acid of Peaches.
An exchange observes that the utilitarian
side. of the peach question has not been fully
inspected. The acid of the peach is one ofthn
most indelible substances known; Oxalic
acid has 'no effect on it, heat will not discharge
it; nitrate of silver is less durable. Why can
not this acid be utilized ?. Either as a lasting
ink for law papers or a marking ink for linen,
or, for printing in colors, it might be valu'able.;
The difficulty of obtaining it is not to be coin,
pared with that of procuring citric acid , from
lemons, or tartaric acid from the lees of wine.
Might it not be useful as an ink . for printing
bank notes ?
The Last of the Chignous.
Adieu to Chignons. The Empress has de-*
creed that high puffs and frizettes shall no
longer exist. The long chatelaine braids*
looped at the back of the head and falling to
the shoulders are hereafter the stc:le. There
is an evident trace of the changes in the Em
press's sentiments in these modes of hair dress
ing and the fashions which follow them. In
her brilliant prime she emulated the splendors
and frivolities of Marie Arttoinette's
court and the 2ninaucleries of La Val
lerie and Pompadour. In her pensive
and graceful decline she reverts to
the stately and exclusive manners of the
ancient chatelaines. These, suit the. hOopless
skirt of flowing velvet or poult, the cavalier
plume and the wide brimmed hat, the em
broidered gauntlet and the drooping braids.
One will no longer recognize theVashions of
the denti-monde and of lungs' favorites in the
allurements of coquettish puffs and
fl long
crimped tresses, in the dress uttering with
ribbons and*bows and light with bouillions ;
a quieter, more decorous, and aristocratic
style, none the less costly, has its advent, with'
the chatelaine braids.
The Flying Ship.
We hear no more of the Avitor, the Cali
fornia air-ship that made a completely success-,
ful trial trip, but that has since been kept as
safely out of sight as though it had been
proved a total failure. It is singular how many
machines, aerial and terrestrial, are invented
every year, prove entirely successful, and are
never heard of afterward. The story of the
Avitor is that of scores of other air-ships, and
the road locomotives that triumphantly fulfil
all the hopes of their inventors
are brought out—and taken in
again—a dozen times a year. Only
the other day this latter übiquitous and peren
nial machine turned up in Edinburgh, where'
it dragged a heavy load rapidly uphill, stopped
"instantaneously while descending the steepest
grades, picked its way carefully among: hun
-dreds of astonished - carriages - and - wondering
horses, and conducted itself generally like' a
-thing , of-life and more than equinaintelligence,
Yet we venture to assert that no man will ever.
see the Edinburgh road locomotive again. It
has been completely successful, and, conse
quently, like all other completely 'successful
inventions of the same sort, will vanish into
the unknown
Bird Mids. ,
The last horrid invention of fashion is the
bird hat; which is copied from the English
modes for ladies this fall. The round hat is
entirely covered with the breast of 'a partridge
or golden Pheasa,nt asit was stripped from the
bird ; and, to add to the tout ensemble, the
bead of the creature, with uplifted beak and
angry eye, is put on as a crest, peering
