NEW YORK
Last year the Democratic majority on the
State Ticket was 83,272. This year the Re
publican majority will reach, if it does not ex
ceed, ,17,000. Legislature stands : Senate—
Republicans 24, Democrats 0, Reformed Dem
ocrats 2. , Assembly—Republicans 93, Demo
crats 89, Reformed Democrats 5. " Boss
Tweed," who ran In the " Five Points" dis
trict, Is the only Tammanyite elected to the
Senate. He had himself counted in by 12,000
majority, but will be counted out at Albany.
Horatio Seymour, who was run for the Legis

was defeated by a Tammanyite count of 4,000
against him, and In favor of one of the thieves
named Fields. Gen. Franz Siegel is elected
Register In the whole city by 25,000 majority.
The Republicans and Democratic Reformers
have carried every branch of the City govern
ment against the Tammanyites. The Tam
many Ring is, completely broken up. In West
chester county, adjoining the City of New
York,the Republicans carried every candidate.

shows a majority for Scribner, Rep., Secretary
of State, of over 17,000.
NEW JERSEY
Joel Parker, Democrat, is elected over
Cornelius Walsh, Republican, by 5,000 ma
jority. The Republicans, however, have three
majority in the Senate, and 14 in the Douse—
making 17 on joint ballot. This State never
voted for a Republican President, but will be
good for Grant next year.
MASSACIIUSENTs
Washburne, Republican candidate for Gov
ernor, is elected over all by about 15,000 ma
Jority. His plurality over John Quincy Adams,
the Democratic candidate, 1326,507. The Leg•

lEEE
Gen. John L. Beveridge, Congressman at
large, and Henry Snapp, in the oth district,
both Republicans, were elected by the usual
majorities. Medal, Republican, was elected
Mayor of Chicago by 11,037 majority, The
whole State is sound as usual.
WISCONSIN.
C. C. Washburne, Republican candidate for
Govemor,is ekcted over Doolittle, Democrat,
by at least 15,000. The Republicans have a
majority in both branches of the Legislature.
MINNESOTA
Horace Austin, Republican, is elected Gov
ernor over Winthrop Young, Democrat, by
8,58 i majority. In 1800 Austin's majority
was only 1,084.
MARYLAND
The usual Democtatic majority has been
greatly reduced, and will be about 15,000, on
the State Ticket. Baltimore Lae elected u
Democratic Mayor by 13,524 majority.
VIRGINIA
The election in Virginia was for Legislature
only. As far as heard front the Republicans
have gained two Senators.
MISSISSIPPI

ANOTHER REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
For the first time in twenty ycara.the City

WAS IT A SPASM?
The following editorial from the New York
Tribune contains some hints which should be
heeded by some of our respectable voters iu
this county. Politics are not debasing unless
they are made so by those who undertake to
rule the political parties. To endcavorto make
them respectable is an Important duty which
must not be neglected by those who love a
free government and to do this they must give
a little more time to this work and not so much
to grumbling's over the shortcomings of others,
whom they, expect to do the work for them.
Tho Tribune says :—The legal electors of
our City generally voted on Tuesday last.
Among them were many who had not before
voted within the last ten years—not even
when Republic tottered and staggered undcr
the heavy blows of a gigantic liebellm. We
estimate that one-fourth of the votes cast this
year were those of men who refused or neg
lected to vote last year.
This was not a positive novelty. At our
Charter Election of 1834, the vote was cast se
fully as this year. So it was at the Presiden
tial Election of 1844, and perhaps at that of
1860. Am a rule, however, only about half of
our expenelvely educated, well-to-do citizens
vote at any but a Presidential Election.
Are they likely to do better hereafter ?
If they learn that their money had Just been
stolen by Millions, perhaps they may, just as
they will evince decided and general activity
whenever the city is in names, It is not much
credit to a Chicagoan that he rose early the
morning after that terrible Sunday night of
the &huh.
"One swallow does not make a summer."
Voting once in ten years will not insure hon•
est and frugal rule. Should the busy, pros
perous thousands who just now made sonic
effort to purify their high places fall back into
heedless apathy, those places will soon again
reek with robbery, no matter though their oc.
cnpants be called Republicans or even Re.
formers.
We cannot have good government for noth
ing. The republican is the best, form of gov
ernment for several reasons c r,primarily, be
cause It incites to scrutiny and necessitates
publicity. A republic in which the abler,
wiser, more intelligent citizens should habitu
ally abstain from voting, leaving the elections
to be managed and decided by those who make
a gainful trade of politics, world be the very
worst of oligarchies. government by "re
peaters" is every way more costly and less
beneficent than government by the bayonet.
At our late Election, there were far fewer
fraudulent votes cast, and less cheating by
miscount, than usual, simply because the legal
voters inilarge numbers stood by the polls all
day and watched the count through the night.
There were still frauds; but they were confined
to from twenty to forty of the 390 Elecion
Districts whereinignorauce, vice and bruta
lity, bear despotic sway. Outside of these,
the vote was pure and the count fair. Yet
Pet across the East Oliver, in Brooklyn, they
had a high old election of the had old kind.
At least five Blount' dwas added to the Demo
walk vote of that city by frauds, though these
were almost exclusively confined to a few
districts. In a majority, both the vole and
The count appear to have been as nearly fair
as they ever are.
Our conclusion is that It Is not vet proved
that the great body of the more Intelligent
Voters have resolved to give systematic and
proper heed to the choice and the doings of
their rulers, And, unless they do that, and I
keep doing it, their achievement of last Tues
day
will not avail them.
NOIFFIIIS ESTERN SUFFERERS.
What to give and how to give it is a mat
ter of considerable importance as connec
ted ,with generosity. The Michigan
Roller Committee announce that, they

have a sufficient supply of clothing to
meet all the dementia that are likely to be made
upon them during the coming winter. The
articles now mainly required, besides money,
are flour, pork potatoes, beans, onions, corn
meal stoves, kitchen furniture, bedsteads,
chairs, tables, bedding, straw ticks, comfor
ters, nails, axes, plows, ox yokes, barness,and
the thousand and ono articles which every
farmer needs about his house and farm. In
'the spring seeds will be needed with which to
start crops for another season. The commit
tee suggest that there is now the greatest call
for flour, corn meal, potatoes, beans and pork.
The last article is especially needed. It has
been suggested that ,farmers can contribute
ninny of these things without feeling their loss,
and would probably be willing to do so were
the matter brought to their attention. By
acting in concert they ean,collect the contribu
tions of the neighborhood, and thus by ship.
ping all together can make up a car load or
more supplies which will prove of great value.
What is true of Michigan is also true of the
other burnt districts of the Northwest. There
must inevitably he great suffering among the
people of the devastated regions during the
ensuing winter. The requisitions made by
the agents have already had to be cut down
fifty per cent., and will probably have to lie
still further reduced, unless the generosity of
the country shall be equal to the demands
made upon it, as we sincerely hope it will be.
THE VACANCY IN THE AUDITOR
GENERAL'S OFFICE.
There Is a disposition in certain quarters to
mystify and misrepresent the true state of the
case created by the death of the Auditor Gen.
oral elect. The law is so plain, however, that
no one can mistake it; and of course Gov.
Geary understands precisely what is his power
and will be his duty tri the premises when the
time comes to act. Unless a law is passed and
approved providing for an election, the Gov
ernor's appointee will hold the office of Audi
tor General for three years. The 'plain letter
of the law, as well as its positive spirit clothes
him with this power. To change it, either a
special election will have to be ordered, which
would cost at least a quarter of a million dol.
lars, or the law so changed to have an election
for Auditor General take place at the regular
October election of 1872, in which case the
Governor's appointee would hold over until
May . of 1873, thus giving him one year in office.
Of course the Legislature would not presume
to usurp the powers of the Executive, by seek
ing to provide for filling the vacancy when
Rartranft leaves office. The Republican party
is a law-making and abiding . power, and not a
law-breaking force. It hais been its mission
to prevent one branch or the Government from
usurping the powers of a co-ordinate branch,
and whatever may be th 6 ambition, the greed,
or the hate of some of its adherents, it will
never depart from this work, or at least it can
never do so and preserve its unity and influ
ence,for good. Hence, the folly of regarding
the question in any other light than that which
directs to the Constitutional power of the
Chief Magistrate thereon. While the mass
regret the untimely fate of the noble man
elected Auditor General, they have full confl•
dence in the man whose power is invoked by
the circumstances.--Harristiurg Journal.

THE HR GOODS TRADE
The Journal of Commerce says that for the

imports of foreign dry goods falls below the
curt esponding total of last year. Up to the
first of October the gain since January Ist on
last year's total was $20,100,000, In October
the rcceipts were behind the corresponding
tnonth of last year about three quarters of a
million. The entries directly for consumption
Hi off one and a half millions, while the en.
tras for warehousing increased nearly one
million. Whether, the gain which has been
so constant has now received more than a
temporary check it is too soon to tell. It Is

THE LEHIGH REGISTER, ALLENT€
THE I RMO ROBBERS.
TWEED MEDITATINO Flaunt.
The Tribune says—lnformation has reached
the Bureau of Municipal Correction which
leads to the serious belief ou th 3 part at least
of sonic of the attorneys who direct its affairs
that, in spite of all his braggadocio and nerve,
William M. Tweed is actually preparing for
flight, in order to secure his safety from pun
ishment for his gross thefts and other crimes.
His rapid transfer of his real estate to his son,
and the accumulation of large sums of ready
funds by the sacrifice of itnmense amounts of
various stocks, are not the only indications
of this intention of the broken 'Tammany
leader. Mr. Tweed is aware that other evi
dence than that which has been made
public exists in the hands of Mr. O'Connor,
and that he is absolutely without defense in
any court of the State. The testimony against
him for various enormous frauds against the
city,not to mention the Eric Hallway and other
corporatlons,is simply overwhelming, and no
one knows this better titan the great culprit
himself.
In consequence of their suspicions that
Tweed is about to follow the example of
Woodward and Garvey,• some of the counsel
representing the Attorney General are dis
satisfied I's ith the amount of hail, and would
like to have it increased to a much higher
figure. They regard additional liens upon
him as essential to •the proper protection 0:

them, if attainable. The practicability of these
additional liens are now under consideration
by Messrs. O'Conor, Evarts, and Peckham,
and it is intimated that au effort will lie made
to obtain them by order of the court, in order
to prevent Tweed's contemplated fight.

to set up is not at present known.
The only matter of interest yesterday at the
Department of Public Works, where Tweed
continues to preside, was the visit paid by a
deputation of workingmen to 'Mr Tweed.
The men were those who have been laying
the large pipes, and have not been paid for
I sonic time. After they had visited Mr. Green
and had been told by him that their pay rolls
had not been received, they waited on Mr.
Tweed. The men were treated with nine!'
obsequiousness, and were assured by Mr.
Tweed that their pay rolls should lie made out
immediately.
It ia still held by prominent Tammany men
that Mr. Tweed meditates resigning his posi

withstanding the assertion of Mr. Tweed him.

THE LEHIGH IRON REGION
We find in n recent number of the Spring
field, Massachusetts, Republican a letter rein
live to the Lehigh Iron Region, which may
not be uninteresting to our readers. The
main facts which the writer brings out are of
course as familiar as household words to many
persons in Allentownand vicinity, but it
oftentimes the most familiar facts which are
the least Intelligently understood, and it is web
for our people to understand the importance
of our Region in reference to the Iron busi
ness of the country. The writer nays:
"In a material sense the present is certain
Iy an iron age, for the practical 119V9 which can
be made of trot, are increasing every day and
hour. Inventive genius and mechanical in
genuity are ever taxing themselves topic ut
most to discover new uses to which iron can
be placed, and new methods of working it in
place of other materials ; and, at the present
ret e of progress in this direction, it is idle to
predict any probable limit to the mechanical
uses of iron. Numerous as are the uses of
iron, however, and as much as it contributes
to personal comfort and public convenience,
there is little known about its production out
side of those who are directly concerned or in
terested in it, and a few facts and figures in
regard to
the business as it is carried on in
the Lehigh Valley, may not be altogether un
inter sting to the renders of The Republican.
Although the Iron trade has now become one
of the most important branches of American
industry, but little more has been done, as
yet, than to realize something of whet may be
' accomplishedin the production and mainline
lure of iron in the United States. The figures,
which show the comparative recent growth of
the pig-iron production to the various iron
districts of the country, are at once interesting
and suggestive. The production of anthracite
pig iron in Pennsylvania has doubled within
the last 10 years, increasing from 370,303 tons
in 1902 to 692,739 tons in 1869 ; while in the
three States of New York, New Jersey and
Massachusetts the production has grown from
04,919 tons in 1854 to 269,216 tons in 1869.
Tic tabulated returns of the iron trade for
1969—the latest published figures—show• that
the entire product of anthracite pig iron in the
United States during that year was 071,130
tons, and of this whole amount Pennsylvania
produced, as shown by the figures above,
more than two thirds.
"There are in Pennsylvania four anthracite
pig iron regions, the Lehigh, the Schuylkill,
the UPper Susquehanna and the Lower Sus
quehanna, and the production in the Lehigh
region is now within a trifle of as much as the
aggregate production of the three other re
glints. In 1809 the product of the Lehigh re
gion was 300,916 tons, and the product ffir
1870 will probably show a slight inerase over
these figures. It is difficult to predict in lid-
Vance the probable product of the furnaces for
1871, lint the present indications are that there
will he a larger production than ever before.

m•ried here. labigh county is literally tilled
ill hematite ore bedsand limestone quarries,
and the m ugh tic or. is easily obtained from
New Jersey, and the coal from the Lehigh and
lInz! ton regions. The Lehigh iron region
and the lehigh coal region are oftentimes
contbanded by persons at a distance from
them, but they are entirely distinct, and are
contiguous to each other rmher than identical.
The !athe!' boundary of the Lehigh iren
region is at Parry vide, which is in Carbon
county, 23 miles above Allentown. The Le

Is six miles further up the Lehigh river than
Perryville. The furnaces consume about
twice as many tons of coal as they produce
tins of iron, and when to the consum p tion of
the furtinces is ridded that of the rolling mills,
the aggregate consumption of coal in the iron
business in the Lehigh region will be about a
million tons. Of course, it business which de
pends so largely upon coal is very w•riously
affected by such a "general suspension" as
occurred ju the coal regions last winter, nod
during that time the furnaces and rolling
mills had a baud struggle to keep their . wot hs
in op-ration. The rolling mills had the . ad
vantage of the furnaces, however, for they
could' us • bitumitthus coal from the western
part of the State, while the furnaces could
only use anthracite, and when they were un
able to get that they had to 'blow out.'
"While pig-iron can e be madc from either
magnetic or hematite ore alone, it is found
that a mixture of the two gives a much better
article than the exclusive use of either. Tee
ratio of mixture which has been settled upon as
the result of past experience is three parts of
hematite to one of magnetic, and in the abum
dance of hematite ore and the nearness to tl 0
coal fields, this region duisdnanifest practical
advantages. There are so many different
things wince affect the manufacture of iron,
such as the varying quality of the ore used,
the condition of the tumosphere, etc., that it
Is difficult to say just how touch raw material
ha necessary for the production of a ton of
pig-ifon. The figures for the raw material
consumed and the iron produced during 1870,
at one of the largest blast furnaces in this re-
Om, areas follows ; coal, 88,000 tons ; iron
ore, 110,000 tons ; limestone, 74,000 tons;
pigdrim produced from this consumption,
44,400 tons; Probably these figures and the
ratio expressed by them between consumption
and production are about the average ; and if
so, it requires two tons of coal, two and a half
tons of are one and three-fourths tons of lime
stone, to produce one ton of pig -Iron. At that
rate, there must be nearly 800,000 tons of ore

to be nearly exhausted have yielded their

that there is nothing so hard to reckon upon
for the future as hematite ore deposits. They

ore is principally found .w here the slate and
limestone regions come together, and there
are various scientific theories in regard to the
geclogical formations and changes which led
to the deposit of hematite ore in this valley and
other valleys which are a continuation of the
Lehigh.
The owner ship of ore beds is one thing
which has helped to make the Lehigh county
farmers "well-to-do," for a man who owns
nn ore bed can lease it at a 'royalty and have a
steady and handsome laconic from It, without
putting his hand to 'pickax' or shovel. Another
way of doing is for the owners of .the ore to
pay a certain sum per ton for taking but the
ore, and then sell it to the furnace companies.
Among beds worked in this way I have one

the companies gives them a profit ofc,from

With such a mine of wealth. as that upon . a
farm, a man must be very thriftless not to get
'forehanded,' and; keep so, too. There is
but one rganized and incorporated iron min.
ing company in this region, and that is the
Ironton railroad company. This company
has for its lousiness the digging of ore from
beds which It owns, and the operation of a
railroad ten miles long as an lire and lime
stone carrying road. It owns about fifty-five
acres of ore land in the township of Whitehall
seven miles from Allentown,and nr wend the op
erations there quite a village has grown up,
the most of which is owned and controlled by
this company. The Ironton tailroail has
Copley, on the Lehigh Valley Railroad
and Lehigh river, as its eastern ter
terminus, and Orefield as itsw•-stern; and it
is lined with ore hedsTrom one end to the tither.
It carries about 100,000 tons of ore per year,
about 40,000 of which it gets from its own
beds and sells to the different furnace com
panies. The rest is taken out by the furnace
companies under lenses, or by private indivi
duals, and whenever a new bed which yields
any considerable quantity of ore is opened a
siding is at once put In by the company to ena.
ble the owners or lessees to ship their ore direr
from where It is taken out. There is abund
ant demand for all the ()re that Is taken out,
and a man who has a productive lire bed up
on his farm is sure of a comfortable income.
The results of a day's exploratiObH among the
Ironton company's ore beds nod others In

Among the latest publications placed before
a discriminating reading public, says the Ti
tusville Herald, is the "Life of .Tames Fisk,
Jr.," issued by a Fulton street publishing firm.
We have seen the book and found it to be a
work peculiarly adapted for the improvement
of the young, and thong'', perhaps, hardly to
be classed among such works as "The Pil
grim's Progress," or "The Lives of the Mar
tyrs," yet it shows how, by strict attention to
business, and an unswerving faith M railroad
stocks, an energetic and ambitious youth may
turn an honest penny (into a dishonest one).
Since Robinson Crusoe first set boys to learn•
ing the sailor's trade, no book has appeared
that will attract no much attention. Like poor
old Robinson Corkscrew, James has his "Fri..
day" (a black one, too). Aiming the many
chapters of the work that are touchingly writ
ten, and from the perusal of which the reader
will rise up to better man, and more determined
than ever to snatch somebody Intl-headi'd in
an oil corner, are, "Fisk as a Steer Team
Thiver," and "The Twelve Temptations."
while interspersed through the hook are little
gems of poetry entitled, "Meet me .Tos e, at
the Gate," "Gone Where the Woodbine
Twineth," '..Tosie with t e Gum Shoes,"
Soldier's Piayer," (on Boston Com
mon), also "The Dying Colonel." The lat
ter was written by a member of the gallant
Ninth upon a paper collar on the field of bat
tle, Jost ns Colonel Fisk had been wounded in
the shin by a club. The first verse is beauti
ful :

And hie Oda In full of pain,
But thotild I live until to-morrow,
You will hoar from me nolo."
