THAT " DEMOCRATIC EARTH
QUAKE!"
DEMOCRATIC GAINS IN ALL THE
STATES.
WIITTE MEN MUST RULE AMER-
We are prepared to report as we antici
pated that a terrifying shock was experi
enced by the trembling denizens of the
Radical harem on Tuesday the Bth, film%
ont the length and breadth of eighteen
States, varying of course in its intensity
from natural causes.
NEW YORK.
The Empire State again declares for
the pure principles of Democracy, by re
electing Gov. Hoffman by a majority of
35,000, and a Democratic Legislature to
assihim. New York city, which, like
Philadelphia, was insulted by the pres
ence of Federal soldiers, tinder the flimsy
pretext of preventing fraud, has given the
administration a marked rebuke, by giv
ing 52,089 majority for Hoffman, electing
the whole city and county ticket, and
Democratic Congressmen in all the dis
tricts. There is a gain of from three to
five Congressmen in the State. This
must declare that the old Empire State
will stand firmly upon a Democratic basis,
invulnerable alike by Federal bullets or
black and Radical votes. Hoffman's ma
jority in 1868 was only 27,946, showing a
good increase in his majority this year.
MASSACHUSETTS
Even in this State where Radical mon
strosities have been born and reared to
the destruction almost of every appear
ance of Constitutional liberty, the walls of
Radical corruption were opened by the
shock produced by the great power of
pure Democracy, so that light pours thro'
them in that dark State, the land of blue
laws and witches. The Radical governor
was elected in 1868 by 68,855 majority :
in the same year Grant had a majority of
7,000. The Radical majority for Clafliti
in 1869 was 23,4115. At this time the
whole majority is only 7.84.5. Our Radi
cal friends cannot hurrah much at the re
sult in the old Bar State.
MARYLAND.
The election in Maryland was for mem
bers of Congress, and the Democrats have
elected their candidates in all the dis
trlts. A clean sweep.
ALABAMA.
In Alabama the entire Democratic State
ticket, is elected. The Democrats elect
forritongrestanen: and the Republicans
two.
VIRGINIA.
The Democrats elect seven Congress
men in Virginia, and the Republicans
two.
TENNESSEE.
hi Tennessee the Governor and all the
Congressmen elected are Democrcts. A
clean sweep.
DELAWARE.
The Democrats have swept the State of
Delaware, electing their Governor and
Congressman.
KENTUCKY
In Kentucky the Democrats have eke
tad all their Congressmen in the whole
nine district&
LOLISI.zIN . A.
The Democrats elect two Congressmen
in Louisiana and the Republicans three.
A Democratic gain.
NEW JERSEY
In New Jersey the Democrats elect two
Congressmen, and the Repnblicans three.
RHODE ISLAND.
This unfortunate little State under the
lead of Sprague & Co., still clings to her
idols, but with reduced majorities.
ILLINOIS.
According to the latest reports, there
is a gain of three members of Congress in
Illinois, which gives a Democratic major
ity in the Congressionid delegation.
mrssoußL
B. Grata Brown is elected Governor
over McClurg, radical, by 30,000 majori
ty. The Democrats also gain several
members of Congress.
NEVADA.
Nevada has elected a Democratic Gov
ernor for the first time since the State
was organize -a.
From the States of Michigan, Minneso
ta, Arkansas and Wisconsin, the returns
are too meagre upon which to hose an
opinion as to definite results.
A Radical journal says that "the
jobbery 'of the rich is the robbery of the
poor," is an axiom. H not originally
axiomatic, the Radical party has demon
strated it to a certainty worthy of adop
tion.
Radical Ciphering.
It is amusing to see the Radical press
cipher on the elections this fall, and en
deavor to keep tip - the drooping 'spirits of
their party, by promulgating very ab
struse and intricate mathematical prob- 1
tenni, so intricate that no one can corn-I
prehend them. They say the "Radical
vote was not out, it never is on congress,
but the Democratic vote was. All we
have got to do is to get the vote out in
1872 to ensure our success." This is cer
tainly a very sage conclusion. There is
ono State that has voted where the Radi
cal vote was out this fall, and the only
one that gives a Radical triumph, and
that is in South parolina. We wonder
that our cotemparary of the ~,Montrose
"Republican" does not give the cheering
news to his readers. It would-be of more
interest perhaps than "earthquakes" just
now. We propose to deal iu facts hence
will not attempt to suppress it or take
any undue advantage of our opponents.
By the persuasive application of Grant's
"Marines" sent to intimidate white
voters from going to the polls, a
large portion of whom refused to
have any thing to do with the election,
they have elected a negro liutenant gov
ernor, and four negro congressmen, besides
several white "Diggers." This is purely
a Radical victory, and well worthy the
party that has brought it about. In New
Jersey by the addition of 9,000 negroes
they have gained one Congressman and
secured the continuation of their United
States Senator which comprises the
sumniuns bonum of all their success.
With the use of the federal soldiers, the
people's treasury, and their negro allies,
they cannot feel much flattered •by the
endorsment of their lets by the people.
The Radical press will be obliged to civil
(r by Daboll's rule of "doq,ble position"
to get the people out to vote for military
usurpation negro equality and corruption
The following is the result of Democratic
"ciphering," which the official returns
will not vary but little, and undoubtedly
will increase, in the States that voted on
Tuesday the Sth :
CONGRESSIONAL OAINS. DEN!. RAD.
New York.
New Jersey
Tennessee..
Michigan..

The Radical press must not only learn
to subtract from their rote that "is not
out" but they must also add the differ
ence to the whiteman's party which is
the place it can be found.
Asa There is enough Democratic gain
of Congressmen already certain to reduce
Iho 7n<! cal majot it) in tlic 4.'J ckn.gn.t."
to 19 and it will undoubtedly be less
when the official vote is known. The
majority of the Radicals in the present
congress is 104. With the negro accretion
to their ranks; this is a stunning rebuke
to the party leaders who have lain aside
constitution law and precedent, and in its
stead substituted, military power and
negro equality, to impose their rule upon
the people. Can our Republican friends
cipher out the cause?
"Got Ow Tote Out,"
There were fifteen Radicals in Columbus
Ohio, who worked hard to get one darker
to the polls and then after all, the tin
grateful child voted the Democratic tick
et. If negroes, for whom they, have dis
graced both the executive and legtslative
government, will desert them, can they
wonder that "their vote is not out ?" They
will find their delinquent voters recorded
with, honesty and Democracy.
Pennrilvanto's Importance
A cotrespondent of the Philadelphia
Inquirer a Republican paper ;hus speaks
of the lesson which President Grant has
learned by the late election, and the, fact
that he is the next Radical candidate for
President, and his acknowledgment 'that
the Keystone State alone can save him in
1872.
“IrGrant now makes a selection from
Pennsylvania either Attorney-General
Akerman, Secretary Fish or — Postmaster
Creswell will have to be retired. All
three represent States which will, in all
probability, vote for the Democratic can
didate in 1872, and the Paesident being
now openly a candidate for re-election, is
on the alert to secure Pennsylvania with
out whose vote he has, within the last
week, for the first time conceded he could
not be re-elected.”
We have had several answers to
our problem, which we gave last weeek.
We have one answer which is correct but
we will not give it yet, as we would like
to hear from more of our young mathem
aticians upon the subject.

The Resignation of Secretary Cox.
General Jacob D. Ce.x.; late Secretary of
the Interior, has done himself the justice
to make publio the.,correspondence be
tween himself and President Grant,
touching the former's resignation of his
place in the Cabinet. 'I he:Tevelations
made by this correspondenee'are truly
most extraordinary in their character, ana
show beyond cavil that the administra
tion is in the hands of the most reckless,
unscrupulous and desperate men Gl:Wey
er disgraced the country, since the-hones
ty of a Cabinet minister,,aud
to the trust reposed in him, is made the
cause of his practical removal from the
councils of the government.
General CoS leaves the (`abinetan hon
ored citizen, while President Grant re
tains his position a disgraced Chief Mag
istrate, and at his present rate of descent,
will, in less than a year, be even beneath
the contempt of the sycophants who now
—••band the • pregnant hinges of the knee.
That thrift may follow fawning."
Iu speaking of the causes that led to
his resignation, General Cox says : ••My
views of the necessity of reforming the
civil service have brought me more or
less in collision with the plans of our act
ive political managers, and my sense of
duty has obliged me to oppose some of
their methods of action through the de
partment. 1 have no doubt whateN er
that public s.mtirnent mill sooner or later
sustain these efforts as what I regard
needed reforms, but I ought not to over
look the fact that for the present they
involve oppositions which it may not be
for the interest of this administration to
I provoke and as my personal tendency is
to be rather more than less persistent to
j the cOurse to which I am committed 1
j deem it my dilly to place in your hands
my resignation of the office of Secretor)
of the Interior, to take effect as soon as
you can con \ eniently determine upon my
successor."
What were those reforms of which
General Cox speaks? We cannot answer
better than by giving the folltia ing cor
respondence from the Secretary to llon.

WA:•IIINGTON. D. C.. July 25..1870.
DEAR Stu: In accordance It ith :iour
request I forward herewith a roll of the
officers and employees of this department.
In doing so I beg to repeat what I said
to yourself and Mr. Platy viz : That in
my efforts to bring about an improve
ment of the civil segvice in :his depart
ment, I hold it to be absolutely essential
that it should be understood by the clerks
and employees that they hold their p!aces
subject to remol al for hick of etlii.ii•ncv
or integrity, and that no subscriptions to
political funds or show of political zeal
will secure their retention if capacity or
industry he lacking.
Mr Platt assured me. and I understood
you to agree ct ith him, that the list was
only desired in order to give your Com
mittee the opportunity to inxite such as
felt entirek free to do su to contribute to
support the work your committee i un
dertaking, and not to impose any tax up
on any one. Knowing. as 1 (14) that many
of our clerks have all they ean . do to make

mufti mischief than benet:t. We can do
more real service to the Itopuldican party
by raising the standard of qualification
among civil employes and putting each
upon his merit done for appoint
ment or promotion, than by expenditure
of many times the amount of money they
could possibly itUrd to contribute.

PDPARTOUENT or TOE INTT:R011,
WASHINGTON', D. C., Sept. 8, 18;0 j
SIR : I am in receipt of your letter of '
yesterday (marked personal), wherein you
request that permission be granted your
committee to call upon the N-nnsyha
nians in this department for the purpose
of soliciting purely voluntary suhscript
ions from those feeling able and \tilling to
give for the aid of your association.
Permit me to say, in reply, that this is
the third application of this sort nceited
by me front your association, and that to
each I have returned the Caine reply. viz:
That the permission was granted with the •
sole condition that the sul.stripti.jns
should he really voluntary. and that the
association should not attempt in ally
manner to visit any pcnaltv or host ilitv
upon any who may fe - el unable to subscribe
to their funds, or who may 'choose anoth
er channel for their aid.
You are not mistaking in assuming
that I feel a very deep interest in the
success of the 11,publican cause through
out the ccuntry : that I beg to assure you
that it is in interest of the cause that I
have opposed every form of assessment
upon the salaries of officers as a mode of
raising funds for the political purposes.
I sincerely believe the attempt made
this year to levy such assessments have
already hurt the party many fold more
than the assessments, if collected, could
help it.
The Republican party is appealing to
the country to support it for the honesty
and economy of our administration
arming other things. I regard a civil ser
vice reform which shall put the employ
ees of the departments, in respect to the
matter of your letter, upon the rule indi
cated by Mr. Webster, when Secretary of
State in 1841. as being , essential to an
honest and thrifty administration of this
department, and I have deeply regretted
to see what I regarded as a danger of los
ing the substance of political success fur
the shadow.
The Republican party will preserve its
power and prestige only by continuing to
be the party of the right, and needs to be
exceedingly cautions of innovations in
wrong directions, like the one I have al
luded to.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
J. D. COX, Secretary.
W. A. Short, Esq., Chairman of Commit
tee, Pennsylvania Republican As
sociation.
The positions taken by General Cox in
these letters led to his expulsion from the
Cabinet, and his letter of resignation
clearly stated that because the Executive
gave him no aid in his attempts to pre
serve honesty and purity in the Cabinet
and the Administration, be was compell
ed to resign his position. And Grant ac
cepted this resignation upon the face of
it, saying in so many words that he would
not only not aid in reforming the public
serxice,buttlesired_topart convoy/ with.
any Csibinet*iniifter who vri6 in ayor of .

to say that ! ! highly appreciate the zeal

could not even accept the Secretary's re

his practical dismissal for carriinv his
zeal so far as to demand and enforce
honesty in his Department. Had Gener

The Weather
The weather still continues; it is like
ly to continue fur some time. We do
not, remember a period nL our existence
when we have not had weather. The
weather is classic, historical, and c3snuip-
Moan. It is to he found everywhere, and
at ;ill times. We do not know what we
should do without it. We would have to
shut oursith es in front the world, like
.lehilles in his teat, if the weather did
not come to our rescue, like the pioneer
of the wilderness, to op,ai a path of con
versation with friends and strangers. It
is a topic with which we are all so famili
that w e have no hesitation to introduce
it ; those who cannot read the figures of
the barometer, have "that within" which ,
tells them that to-day is warmer than
~sterdity, and yeaterdAy was colder than
the day previona—and this fact they
communicate to all their acquaintance.
Not that said acqtraintanu need such in
formation. nor does Mr. Smith prove him
self any wiser than his neighbors in hav
ing discovered the state of the weather.
But it is au intimation that Smith desires
to be agreeable: that he wishes to enter
the domain of conversation; and as
Brown is a stranger to him, and he knows
not whether he is French or German.
Chaistian or Pagan, Democrat or Republi
an, lie dan, not trench on any of
these grounds, and the only luipular
theme left which is sure will not give of
fence, is the weather. It is a fruitful
topic, breaking down the barriers of con
ventional reserve, opening the mystic
! , at es to the illimitabletieldsof discussion.
