THURSDAY OCTOBER 24,1872.
REPUBLICAN TICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT,
ULYSSES S. GUAM, of Illinois.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
HERY WILSON, of Massachusetts.
FRAUDS! FRAUDS !
FRAUDS !
The Democracy, just now, are consoling
themselves over their defeat by the cry of
frauds, insinuating and bold! asserting that
the election of Ilartranft and Allen was the
result of frauds perpetrated on the ballot
box by the Republicans. The Monroe
Democracy had better sweep the dirt from
their own doors before they engage in the
c y so lustily. Of course we can form no idea
by how much colonizing, repeating, and bal
lot box stuffing they have managed to create
their heavy mnjorties in this county, hereto
fore, but this we do know that, this year, they
endeavored to swell the majority for Buck a
lew to 21S1 by a bare faced indulgence in the
"Addition, Division and Silence" dodge.
.Notwithstanding the error was pointed out
the Monroe Democrat has the republican
vote 058, when it should be T58, giving
Buckalew 2081 majority only. If the votes
in the rest of the Democratic couutics were
a
thoroughly canvassed we have no doubt that
Hartranft's official majority would be 50,000,
instead of 35,837 as the figures give it The
fact is that the party of coflee-pot naturaliza
tion papers, and which has always gained
power by fraud, is not the party to cry out
against its opponents, unless it be to thus
endeavor to cover up the dirty work which
comes so naturally to it.
PF" The election law prescribes certain
forms to be observed in relation to the Presi-
dental election, which occurs on the 5th of
November. Ten days before that date it is
lhe duty of the assessor to attend at the place
xed by law for holding the election in each
election district, and then and there hear all
applications of persons whose names have
been omitted from the list of assessed
voters, and who claim the right to vote, or
whose rights have originated since the same
was made out, and shall add the names of
such persons thereto as shall show that they
arc entitled to the right of suffrage in such
district, on the personal application of the
claimant only, and forthwith assess them
with the proper tax. After completing the
Fist, a copy thereof shall be placed on the
door or on the house where the election is to
ibe held, at least eight days before, and at the
election the same course shall be pursued in
all respects as is required by this act and the
acts to which it is a supplement at the
ceneral elections in October. The assessor
shall also make the same returns to the
County Commissioners of all assessments
made by virtue of this section ; and the
County Commissioners shall furnish copies
thereof to the election officers in each district,
in like manner in all respects as is required
at the general election in October.

The amendment to the State Constitu
tion. making the State Treasurer elective
by the people, was adopted at the recent
election almost by general consent.
Very few votes were cast against it. 10
most of the counties. The amendment
has been most emphatically ratified. As
the Constitution itself will be thoroughly
reformed during the next year, this
amendment may not be practically opera
five, but the vote expresses very clearly
the sentiment of the people in regard to
filling the office hereafter.
The railraod army, according to the
'tables of occupation recently completed
at the census office from the returns 0
1870 consisted at the time of taking the
census of 1,962 officers of railroad com
panies, 7,347 railroad clerks, and 154,
427 railroad employees a total, rank and
file, of 163,303 souls. This, we may say
would form by itself a large army. Besides
these, however, there are 7o officers, tut
clerks, 8,554 employees of express com
panies in all 9,36'J men. As these are
nearly all eDgageu in steam raiiroaa
transportation, we bave.a total ot Liz,
699 men engaged directljr in railroad
service.
The official count of the vote for Con
g'ressmen .at large in this State is not yet
summed up, and no one can tell exactly
what the Republican majority will be for
those positions. It is safe to assume thaf
it will be same thousands more than the
majority for Governor. We should not
be surprised if it exeeed3 45,000. And
this will be the true index of party
strength in Pennsylvania. The Republi
cans and Democrats supported their re
spective nominations for Congressmen at
large without a question, each side voting
a straight ticket. - The assumption that
the vote for them accurately represents
the numbers of the two parties is there
fore a safe one. Just think of a elear
Republican majority of 45,000 in Penn
svlvania !

It has lately been contended, with
rather more warmth than discretion, that
hydrophobia is a disease which cither has
no existence at all, or a purely fictitious
one in the minds of highly timorous and
imaginative people. Where the doctors
disagree we do not pretend to decide, but
it has unfortunately happened, within
the last half year, to scores of persons
possessing the average fondness for living,
to he afflicted with a horrible disease call
ed hydrophobia, and, as if in contempt of
all theories against its existence,' have
died in pain and agony such as no other
torture could induce. There may be no
such disease as hydrophobia after all ; but.
whether there is or not, while people die
because they think they have it, we are
gratified to find that for it there is a re
medy the efficacy of which has been
proved by trial. The French papers give
the following details : ''The patient was
"subjected to hot vapor baths on the recur
r&nco of the first sjmptoma of every
paroxysm, and during its continuance.
(
"which treatment, naturally producing
"copious perspiration, resulted in the
"paroxyims becoming leas and leas severe,
"until finally they disappeared, and a
"complete cure of this most dreadful and
"painful of all maladies was established
"perhaps the only cure of a severe case

The Horse Disease.
Last week the telegraph made refer
ence to the general prevalence of the
horse disease in loronto, the matter be
coming so serious as to impede travel and
transportation, and involve considerable
I0S9. It appears that the same epidemic
prevails in Montreal and. its vicinity, and
is rapidly on the increase, having, accord
ing to later dispatches, attacked horses in
Buffalo and Rochester. N. Y. A Toronto
paper gives some of the symptoms of the
disease and the proper mode of treat
ment, which, in view of its possible spread
may be useful :
. The disease appears to be a catarrha
fever ot an epizootic nature, the result o
some atmospheric influence, as is shown
by its suduen appearance over a large ex
tent, ofcouutry, attacking all kinds 0
horses, old and young, in good condition
or poor. The premonitory symptons are
duluess, a staring coat, a watery discharge
from the nose, speedily followed by a
severe hacking cough ; the pulse is quick
eoed and the mouth hot, the nasal mem
brancs ore. injected, and the ears and
lungs are unnaturally cold ; the discharge
from the nose increases and becomes of a
creeoish yellow color, the breathing is
increased, and in some coses labored ee
vere. Although this disease must ne
cessarily prove a great loss and aunoyance
to the community generally, we do not
think it is likely to be of a fatal charac
ter where ordinarv care aud rational treat
ment arc adopted. In several instance
the attack has been severe, but generally
increased by overwork or some other de
bilitating influence.
As the disease will run a certain course,
affected animals should be carefully used,
and allowed plenty of air, with a liberal
diet of nourishing and easily digested
food. The stable should be well aired
and thoroughly ventilated, and it is also
advisable to nse disinfectants, as the
chlorid of lime or carbolic acid. When
the throat is very sore, causing a dificul
ty in swallowing, a mild embrocation
should be applied, and the fever allayed
by mild febrifuge medicine.
Straightout Democrats.
The Democratic Executive Committee
of this State held a meeting at the Bolton
House, Ilarrisburg, Wednesday, at which
the following preamble and resolution?
were adopted : .
Whereas, the result of the October
election in Pennsylvania has fully demon
strated the fact that the State can, under
no circumstances, be carried for the Lib
eral Republican candidate for the Presi
dency, Horace Greeley, and there ?h not,
as was anticipated in case of such an over
whelming defeat, a disposition on the part
of the Democratic leaders who have af
filiated with the Cincinnati movement to
return to their allegiance to the true
Democracy ; and.
Whereas, The - nomination ' of an elec
toral ticket in support of the nominees of
the Louisville Convention Charles O'
Conor end John Quincy Adams, would
entail considerable trouble aud expense,
without any hope of success or gain to
the Democrrcy of the State ; therefore,
Resolved, That the Committee recom
mend to the delegates here assembled.
that no electoral ticket be nominated, but
that the honest Democratic voters of the
State refrain from taking any part in the
political contest now being waged by the
two wings of the Republican, party in the
interest of their respective candidates,
Grant and Greeley.
In accordance with the above recom
mendation of the State Executive Com
mittee of Pennsylvania the Committee ad
journed without making any nouiioatiou
for electors. A number of delegates from
different sections of the State were in at
tendance, and numerous letters from pro
minent Democrats, advising the course
decided upon, were read before the con
vention.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and West
em and Central Railroad of New Jersey
Muddle.
The following explains itself:
To the Editor of the X. Y. Tribune.
Sir: Recent articles in the papers re
lating to the Delaware, Lackawauna and
Western Railroad Company, and the
Central Railroad Company, of New
Jersey, seem to require a short explana
tion. The matter in dispute wa. not the
construction of the part of the contract of
consolidation relating to joint dividends,
for that is simple enough, but the validity
and existence of the contract itself. Act
ing under the advice of counsel, the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rail
road Company were induced by the action
of the Central to bring the matter before
the Court of Chancery in New Jeresy, so
as to get a prompt and conclusive settle
ment of the whole question. Ry the
decision of the Court, the companies may
now be considered restored to their
original position of independence. Noth
ing has been done by the joint companies
to alter the original positions of either
company, aud their affairs have been in
no way mixed. The dividends declared
by the Central, out of earnings, will be
paid on the 21st. Pull reports of the
affairs of the company will continue to be
made to the stockholders as heretofore
The re execution of the contract will be
submitted to the stockholders of the Cen
tral, but, as it is exceedingly unpopular,
it is probable that the vote will be over
whelming against it.
