From tlioltttnliunth liHimtcL,
Iii(tlscmt Talk.
Just now tin- kulor of U'tli parties
aro 'Churgliift each oilier with deliber
ate fraud, and an attempt t corrupt
the lmlltt-lxx. An Individual who
lietens to tin-in, who U Ignorant of the
wiles ami ai'hmnw politician wnnc
time rtnort to tocarry tlu-lr point and
secure a victory, wouM come to the
conclusion that they are all the very
pinks of moral infection and honesty.
Kvcry one of them denwnu-e fraud
In as Btrong terms as the English
language supplies, and declares he
wants nothing more than the votes
emit In Louisiana and Florida shall be
counted fairly, by which he generally
means that they shall be so counted as
that his candidate shall not be left out
iu the cold. The height of honesty,
In the estimation of these gentlemen
who have gone down Booth to exer
cise their powers of numeration, Is,
that their candidate shall be declared
elected, If not by an overwhelming, at
least by a decisive majority. If any
othi count snould be made the
partisans against whom It shall be
made will cry, "fraud," until their
throats are hoarse.
This Is our opinion, which wc base
not only on the declarations that have
been made, but also on the course
which has usually been followed by
nolitlclftus. WeW'lieve that there Is
nut one of those who have gone down
South, but is convinced that his can
didate has been elected, and If the
votes should be counted till doomsday,
he will not change his mind upon this
subject. Every one asserts there has
been fraud, and that It must be ex
posed. When men indulge In de
clarations of this kind, they are not In
the best frame and temper of mind
for coming to Just and impartial con
clusions. The animus of the leaders of the two
parties is seen in the indiscreet words
ts which they often give utterance.
It has not been' an uncommon thing,
for nearly two weeks, for papers and
politicians to hint, and in some iu
otanccs to declare in so many words,
that ii the vote does not show that
shci'r candidate has been elected, there
mu"t have been fraud perpetrated,
airU that the lcpicscntative of those
who coniuulled it, can never be in
stalled Presfdent of the United States.
Even some very grave men, who are
not accustomed to be demonstrative
on any occasion, have not hesitated to
declare that if any other candidate
than the one of their yarty should be
counted in, he cannot and must not be
inaugurated. Such language Is un
American, and unwise. The univer
sal law among us is, that the majority
shall rule, utul if it should be declared
that Hayes 1hh a majority of the eleo
trs choirun he must he the next Presi
dent of the United States. it If, on
the other hand, it shall appear that
Tilden is the choice of the people of
the country, there must be no ob
structions thrown in the way to pre
vent his entry into the "White House
as the Chief Magistrate of the nation.
'the country is not prepared for
another war, and such a th'tig as
determining at the point of the
bayonet wh shaft be the next Presi
dent of the United States, sboirld not
be thought of for a moment. Those
editors and hair-brained politicians
who suggest such a thing as war to
dit rininc the question, would be the
vry last persons who would shoulder
a musket or unsheath a sword. They
might take great pleasure Id seeing
othess engaging in mortal combat, but
they would be very careful to keep in
the rear, and out of range of musketry
and artillery.
When-Abraham Lfncola was elec
ted honestly and fairly to preside over
the country from the 4th of March,
lsGl, for four years, the cry of the
disappointed was we will never sub
mft, amf a- vile rail splitter shall not
be allowed to exercise the functions of
Chiel Magistrate in this country
When such talk wa first indulged in,
some people langhed at it, and said it
was merely the bluster of braggarts,
who had no serious intention of carry
ing their threats into execution. But
as the time for Lincoln's inauguration
drew near, It began to appear that
there was some reality in the threats
uttered, and if it had not been for tbe
extreme caution exercised, he would
never have escaped alive out of the
haads of the "plug-uglies' of Balti
more.
But the people were determined
that the man who bad been fairly
elected should be installed President
f the United State, and he was.
Despite the opposition shown to his
Presidency Abraham Lincoln stood
at the helm of the ship of State for
four years, and never disappeared
from the deck even when it M as in
flames, and the noble craft seemed as
I f it wull bo burned to the water's
eigoi
Somo of the paper of the country
made light of the affair of Lincoln's
escape from assassination at the hands
of the Baltimore roughs, and wrote
many a caricature of the manner in
which be succeeded in evading them,
by donning Tartan plaid and a Glen-
gary bonnet. Vo ear scarcely think
that such a thing will bo again at
tempted- during the present eentury,
and we hopo not for ever, but when
heated partisans keep up the constant
erv of resistance, at any cost, it is
difficult to say what might take place,
Some one party must buffer defeat,
uud of this both parties should be
tatlsflort. Until cnitnut succeed, and
the one which the people shall reject
must prepare to bear up under defeat
If It were rowdies and roughs only
that were giving utterance to tbe de
claration that there should not be an
inauguration, unless their candidate
shall be counted In, we could, perhaps,
pardon the Indiscretion, but when we
hear men of standing, Intelligence
and professed patriotism, talking In
this way we have no patience with
tlrem, and are ready to pray that the
country may soon get rid of them, for
so long as they remain here they will
only bo disturbers of the peace and
destroyers of the nation.
There are good and sincere patriots
who will pay no attention to the
empty threats made by a few cowardly
politicians, but It would be much bet
ter if they were not uttered. Unless
fully convinced that they were fairly
elected we don't tclleve that either
Governor Hayes or Governor Tilden
would allow himself to be escorted to
the White House by armed bands of
men. The candidate who shall be de
clared duly elected must have a reas
onable assurance that the people de
sire him to be their ruler, or he will
not aceept of the offlne.
The Indiscreet remarks of some par
tisans, who deslreofllce more than any
thing else, have a tendency to Inflame
the passions, and beget bad and revolu
tionary feeling. It Is to be hoped.
therefore, that all will patiently await
the result, and when announced will
abide by it
It is thought that the cost of elect
ing a President Is about three million
dollars which ought to be quite
enough to secure a good one, but none
at all after such expense would be
rather extravagant If It were not for
the fun we have to think of.
A scientific examination of children
In the Portland, Maine, public schools
shows thai about twenty per cent, of
the pupils in the grammer department
and eight and a half in the other de
partments have defective sight. De
fectivo lighting of the rooms is the
cause.
Blaine is likely to be elected Presl
dent of the Senate as soon as Congress
assembles. This Is with a view to
providing against any vacancy that
might occur in the office of President
should Congress refuse to go into joint
convention to complete the election
of the President next February. Blaine
would then be President for the ensu
ing year till a new President could bo
elected and inaugurated. Blaine
would be a bigger man than Tilden
and Hayes together then.
"I am willing to risk my reputation
as a public man," wrote Edward Hine
to the Liverpool Mercury, "if the
worst case of small-pox cannot be
cured in three days, simply by the
use of cream tartar. One ounce of
cream of tartar disolvcd in a pint of
hot water, drink at intervals, when
cold, is a certain, never-falling
remedy. It has cured thousands,
never leaves a mark, never causes
blindness, and avoids tedious linger
ing." Ir is well to recollect, during all
this excitement, that the Presidential
electors will not meet in the several
States until the first Wednesday in
December, and that their votes will
not be connted until the second Wed
nesday in February. It is oh this late
date that the presiding officer of the
Senate, in the nresenco of the two
Houses of Congress, must declare who
is elected President. But Congress
will meet on the first Monday in De
cember, and there is no reason why
the two bouses should not, and every
reason why they should, in the time
intervening, agree upon such rules to
govern the counting of the electoral
vote ts will secure the peaceful and
lawful adjustment of any -dispute that
can arise. This is the very first busi
ness to which Congress must give its
attention, and it will be well for the
leading men of both parties to consult
together upon the subject now, tbat
the necessary rules may be adopted
without delay and the anxiety of the
country if the election ultimately
prove as close as it now. appears be
alliyed as speedily as possible.
Times.
Dujing tbe opening performance at
Moure's Opera Bouse, in Sun Franoisco,
Saturday night, the floor gave way and
eight persons were killed and about one
hundred wounded. The opera house was
situated over a large livery stable, and
formerly te n used as a State armory.
About a thousand persons were present.
When the floor gave way the entire audi
torium, carrying with it the stage and
gallery was precipitated to the stable be
neath. Tbe light were extinguished, and
a soene of fearful oonfusion eusued. The
name of the killed are: T. W. Perry, jani
tor of tbe Court House; Erauk Meyer and
W. J. Fob ter, oompositors in the Beoord
and Union office; Henry Vaea, Eira Wool
son, formerly County Treasurer; Michael
Tiernan, and two unknown. The perfor
mers escaped wiih some bruises; Eddie
Peak, of the Swiss bel'.ringers, and Mrs,
Wilson, a variety performer, being most in
jured, neither seriously. Many of the
wouaued taken iron tbe ruins are in a
oritical eondition, and a number will
probably die.
A furniture wagoa containing a party of
thirty .six persons on their way to awed
ding, fell over a bridge near Cincinnati
Saturday night, falling a distance of
twenty-five feet. Three persons were
probably fatally injured, and nine or tea
others were more or less severely hurt.
The dead body of a man was found rlng
on tbe Panhandle track near tbe Columbas
depot, Saturday night, just after the mid'
night tram left there. A paper was found
on his body, on which was scrawled,
"Thurston Every, Knox oounty, Edwards
Poad. I oojwluded to kill myself." On
tbe other side was a memoranda of work
done. It it supposed he threw himself un-
ner tbe train.

Another lingular turn In the state of the
Presidential coolest ia made In tbe asser
tion thai a loss of 2,218 votes for Hayes In
Louisiana has beeu incurred through a
printer' plunder In placing the nemos of
Hay and Wheeler at the head of the
ticket and omitting the name of the Slate
elector. There seems lo be considerable
information on the subject of eleetors ac
cumulating for the people of the United
State out of the Centennial eleotion.
A Woman Stsikis ncs Hubbard with
an Ait: A melancholy afiair occurred in
8pring Creek, Warren oounty, last Friday
morning. Mr. E, Jewell became enraged
at her husband, because of some difficulty
regarding property left ber by her first
husband. During the dispute Mr.
Jewell suddenly seized an axe and struck
ber husband with it. Tbe blade bit him
just under the shoulder blade, making a
wound over five inches long and several
Inches deep. It I supposed that it will
prove fatal. The woman was arrested and
taken to jail. At last report she showed
signs of insanity.
A sineular case ha deen developed In
New Tork, wherein a woman is accused of
having sworn voilence against six men, one
of whom has already eerved three of a
twenty years term in tbe penitentiary, and
now it is strongly suBpeoled that be was
innocent. Her plan was to appear at in
terrain as a poor and unprotected girl just
from Ireland, ask far lodging at a police
station, and feigning illness wauld send for
an officer, and subsequently swear out a
charge of outrage, and show marks of ill
treatment In evidence. It is thought she
oan be convicted of perjury, but that can
scarcely help soma of her victims, who,
like him in prison, may have suffered for
years from unjust ascusations. Such a
case as this is a publio misfortune in add
ing to the doubts and difficulties .which al
ready surround tbe determination of a class
of cases ia which a woman's oath is about
all the testimony expected on the part of the
prosecution, and against which the most
solemn denials of the defendant avail noth.
