Yttiglj 44,0 a. ROBT. IREDELL. J'.. ALLENTOWN, PA., NOV. 6, 1872 THE TRIUMPH OF JUSTICE The campaign which has been brought to a'close will ever be remembered as ono of the most venomous, one of the most shock ingly personal, that has ever been carried on in this country. People in foreign lands read ing the New York Tribune and the Sun would very naturally believe that the United States Was governed by a tyrant whose brutal ity, low character, dissipation, etc., were un equaled by the greatest criminal of any coun try. Its effect abroad, its tendency to lower us as a Nation In the estimation of foreigners, we deplore—but its effect upon tho Bound, clear-heeded, cultured and .honest and just pedple of America. has been to degrade the authors of the villainous slanders hurled against the President. Respect for that high office ought to have induced President Grant's opponents to treat him with some respect ; a proper appreciation of the vast services he rendered the country when timid men saw no way out of destruction, ought to have in duced a little decency ; but no epithets were too coarse, no falsehoods too glaring, no in sinuations too false, no calumnies too outra geous, tor the opposition editors. They ex pected such a canvass to enable them to reach success, but they were sadly mistaken in the temper and in the intelligence of the American people. They forget that the war was a great educator ; that the rapid expansion of railroad and mail facilities had lifted the people from a state which existed twenty years ago. They' counted too strongly upon the dishonesty of the people ; they believed that promises plenti fully bestowed would seduce intelligent men from the ranks of the Republican party ; they hoped that calumniation of those in authority and promises of inaugurating an era of reform would entice the innocent away from us ; they hoped that a glowing picture of Liberal suc cess would scare the weak-kneed Into joining their ranks ; and lastly they counted too con fidently upon the atiection for Horace Gree ley, which prevailed in.the party, blinding hie old friends to the real motives of the Liberal and Democratic leaders. But, alas, how sadly' were they mistaken I In every successive elec tion which has been held the people have . shown themselves independent of leaders and wedded more firmly than ever to the glorious principles for which they have fought in the past twelve years. In North Carolina even the negroes, who had been counted upon as ignorant and confiding enough to go into the Democratic party because Horace Greeley once opposed slavery—even the negroes knew how to be true to principle and they helped to glye the first (tampering blow to Liberalism or regenerated Democracy. i In Maine they foUght hard—they fought for life—and they were sadly defeated. 'ln Vermont they made heavy gains, or pretended to, but it did them great harm. In the October elections they were deluded into hoping by the defection of a few Grant newspapers. Their delusion was rendered more complete by the desertion •of Andy Curtin. Through the disfranchisement of poor negroes in Georgia they gained a gen uine Liberal victory in that State, and this gave them still greater reason to hope for suc cess in Pennsylvaull and Ohio ; but how they were disappointed, everybody knows, and they felt then for the first time that their cause was too rotten to succeed. This cam• paign, though fraught with so much of bad blood and so disgraceful in the manner -of fight made by the opposition, will leave its lessons behind as a warning in the future. It will teach demagogues and traitors that with a free people no cause can succeed which depends for -its main strength upon those very indivi duals who were but a few years ago using every means to destroy the Government. The ay./memo., party ts, and Luis always been, a party of conciliation. It desires the peo ple of the South to forget their treason and atone for their misdeeds by becom• ing orderly and true citizens. It desires to see the South disbanded as a solid organisation and Its intelligent white citizens mitering heartily into the spirit of the issues which are before the country today and to lay aside the hopes and hatreds which have enabled the Demo crat-1c party In this campaign to make a re spectable fight. The people of this county, in their late elections, have virtually decided that the "Lost Cause" is indeed lost, and can never be regained, and, therefore, the sooner the South disbands and allows the rank and file to take sides either for or against the 'new questions before the country, without regard to the dead past, the better w ill it be for South ern prosperity. The Republican party has been a magnaninfous and conciliatory party, but not the kind of which Horace Greeley is the leader. While it is willing, and always has been, to make concessions, it will never give up its manhood. It will never, as Hor ace Greeley did at Pittsburgh, denounce the soldiers who fought for the Union; it will never comfort those who forced secession upon the south by telling them that in the re belliou they were morally right, but legally wrong; and that the United States Govern• ment was morally wrong, and only legally right; it will never sanction the morality or Putties of slavery, as Greeley did in Indians, by pretending that it opposed the institution upon purely economic grounds. None of this kind of conciliation can ever bo expected of it, but that kind which, it accepted, will engender respect among the true men of the South, will - strengthed their love for the old flag, and w ill start them anew.upon a -broad er sphere of usefulness, will be the kind which the Republican party promises to hold out in the future.

The figures afford mime" curious facts for study. Lehigh is one of the few counties in the State where no man's election Is as. mired until the votes are counted. This year owing to the multiplicity or tickets, many of our voters were only too glad not to. maire any mistake or omission in depositing their ballots and felt little Inclination to "scratch ;" yet we see that no two candidates in the above llst received tho sums number of votes, Tito County Commissioner had 078 majority, and Erteckel'a majority over Camp was only 901, while the true Republican majority was about Isoo. It shows that if the strength of the opposition candidates can be so much weakened in an exciting contest, when the excitement incident to a Presiden- ECM tlpil campaign causes party lines to be closely drawn, we can in the Mture rely upon elect. lug a portion of our county ticicot every year, if we place men upon our ticket who will com bine elements of popularity, honesty and com petency. To succeed will require another, and the most Important, work,-the polling of a full Republican vote. We cannot to strong ly urge upon our friends this necessary pre caution. We wish to show them now, while their attention is attracted to politics, how small a thing the Democratic majority is in a contest, where no great National issues are at stake. Republicans living in minority counties are to ready to be discouraged by the majority of the opposition, yet their is nothing in the thouband or twelve hundred majority of the opposition In Lehigh to keep the Republicans from going to work year in and year out with the tntention to win, and if we do form that intention we can succeed. The last election showed that we have over 5400 Republican votes in this county, yet in Octo ber, 1801, we polled only about 4,430 Repub- Roan votes. Could we in 1871 have cc nv Inc ed the Republicans of the great importance of getting out our full vote we should have elect ed a.portion of the county ticket. John Sny der, candidate for Sheriff, by hard work suc ceeded iu getting enough Democratic votes to cut down Faust's majority to about 800; and it Is plain to be seen that had the Republican vote then been only 5,330, Snyder would be Sheriff. In the snare election Woolever bad 893 over Boyer, and Fetter had 820 over Man lier, for the Legislature, and an additional Re- Republican vote of HO, or a total of 5,30, would have given us two members of the Le gislature. These examples are enough to convince our Republicans, we hope, that a full Republican vote can carry Lehigh county next year. We do not want them to lose eight of this fact, and then when next year's campaign opens let them go to work with a w 111 and they will be sure of success. A MOVING STORY. - ny "alas." Houses are very scarce in Columbus. We don't mean to Insinuate that there are not a good many houses. We only want to say it is difficult to find a vacant house if you wish to rent one. It was not always thus iu Colum. bus. Time was when vacant houses could be met any day running round the streets with tears In their attics, trying to prevail upon peo ple to occupy them. But Columbus is looking up. Several families have immigrated there recently; nod caused a tremendous flutter in the house market. And a report that two or three other families are preparing to move in has had the effect to still further advnnce prices. Landlords hold on to their homes like a drowning peep to a floating dog ken. nel In a freshet. They wait for big rent. House-hunting is the prevailing ii.dustry ot Columbus at present. A great many stories are told, even when it is only a one-story house. The mere suspicion of an intention to move subjects a man to unnumbered annoy ances. The bell is kept ringing from morn ing till night by fools who want to know if the house Is rented, and after the !ninny worn out by responding, close the house and retire to rest, men come and encamp in the frdht yard saris to be on band as soon as anybody is stir- ring.. It is to no unusual thing to see a violent struggle going on in the hall-way between one family doing its best to move out and another family strenuously endeavoring to move in. An outgoing ottoman plunges violently into au incoming sideboard, end it length of stove-pipe jabs viciously into a piano. A centre-table (she couldn't cont^ immediately herself, but (tic ccutrc•tnnlc) nun n (Intl tt to- howl Milt NV ith a washing-machine and a kitchen stove disputes the entrance of the family photo• graphs. There was a pub;ic meetingln Columbus rt cently. A man arose and said: "Mr. Presi. dent, I move"— "When P'sht ieked fifty voices at one, ;and then the meeting broke up in the greatest con fusion, all crowding around the man who was going to move, anxious to secure the vacant house. No man dies in Columbus now, if It can help it. He can't depart in any kind of peace because so many are prowlia4 around the pre mince to rent the place. It is no unusual thing to see fern iture shoved in at the hack windows while the coil:a is being ecrrhql out the front door. A. friend Of ours recently moved to Colum bus. He has searched unavailably for a house ever since he has been there. do has spent so much time and grown HO disconsolate in MO% ing up a house he fears he will never ho able to look up again. ll' keeps all his friends searching, too. He met the police judge one day—a friend of his. "Did you find a hotwe ?" he ask.+. "Yes," says the judge; fined a house this morning for being disorderly 426 and costs. Our friend got on the track of a consumptive man who hadn't long to tarry, Every day did ho walk past the sick man's house, rod day by day he remarked w ith n little inward chuckle, that the doomed man looked thinner.

CLOSING FURNACES ON SUNDAY. =1 Our readers will recollect that we wrote en article some time ago on the cl6sing of fun naces on Sunday. In that article we stated that the Messrs. Bagfulils, of England, some thirty years ago ceased working their furnaces on Sunday, and after a fair trial, as they oper ated a large number, they arrived at the con• elusion that The advantages derived by closing them up on Sunday were so much greater than the disadvantages Incurred In every respect, that they have not worked them since on the Sablaith day.' The Marquette Mining Journal gives the following account of an attempt made by some parties Ohio to close their furnaces on Sunday : "But some half dozen have attempted to suspend on Sunday, and twoor three possibly four, are now doing so, But they do not get the same results WhiCh are obtained by run ning without the Sunday intermission, and no one claims that they can. They not only lose the product of. Sunday, but are frequently tier able to .get their stacks In smooth working order for a day or two following. "It has noebeen disputed that labor could In a great measure be suspended at a blast fur • naco on the Habbete—for charges have been held In•the crucible for several days without a chill following—but it Is the great length of time spent in bringing the condition of the furnace bank to thomaximum working capit ally whlehinterfarea with the adopting of such e rule.

Lives Lost and only Twelve Saved. • Ray WIT, Oct. 30.—The steamer Missouri ; was burned at sea In a gale, ou the 22d inst., about 21 miles from Abaco, on the way to Havana, via Nassau, N. P. Only 12 persons were saved. The fire was discovered about 0 a. m. In the pnntry, and suddenly burst out in volumes of flame amidships, spreading rapid. ly over the stamen The boats were launched Immediately, and all but one were swamped at once. Those remaining on board were compelled on account of the flames to jump into the sca. Those saved landed In one of the boats in Abaco about 0 p. in. on the eve ning of the 22d, and were taken from theie In a small schooner to Nassau. It was a terrible sight for those in the floating boat to see those iu the water clinging to the swamped boats and begging for assistance. There were about ten ladles on board. It is not known whether any of the missing have since been picked up. It is said that the captain used every effort to save the lives of the passengers, working bravely himself with the hose. Three of the saved passengers are now here. Two of the boats of the ill-fated Missouri were burned alongside the vessel, and there is no probability that any of the others ever reached the shore. It is probable that not a single life would have been saved had it not been fur James Culmer, a resident of Eleuthera and a passenger on board. A sew boat had been pure:lased in New York and placed on deck, but as the weather had been boisterous, site had not been secured either by gripes or by chocks. When it was known that the visa sel would go down, Cuhner, with a few others, launched this boat holding fast the painter, when he jumped overbonrdend swam to the boat ; eleven others followed him, and even then, had it not been for Culmer, nho was acquainted with the management, of a boat, and took charge and piloted her safely through the surf, she would have been lost with the others. The three passengers who are here were bound to Havana, and will be forw.trded to that port by John Jay Philbrick, the agent of the Atlantic Mail Steamship Line at this port, who has taken every measure (o mit& securing their comfort. This in fermatiou was brought here this af ternoon by the steamer Anna front Nassau to the British Consul, and communications were sent to the Atlantic Mail Company's office in New York. The origin of the fire is un• known. The Missouri sailed from Pier No. 4, North River, at 8 a. in., last Friday, for' Havana, via l'assau, having on board a crew of 58, all told, 20 registered passengers, and an assorted cargo. Among the say , d is mentioned a Calote 1 passenger, whose presence was not known at the °Mee of the C.impany WI yes. terday. This would make a total of 88 per. sons on board the doomed vessel at the rime of her• destruction. 01 these, as only 12 are reported sae, il, 70 seas undoubtedly to have perished. The 3lissouri was a wisnlen, screw steam ship, of 1,230 tuns Walken, built at 31) sin% Conn., in 1802. She was of oak and chr st unt, copper end iron-fastened, and Lod three decks. Of brigantine rig, she was 210 feet long, 24 fret brain, and 23 feet in depth.

Mr. Quillen states that the Missouri was fated Al". which is the highest rate of the American Lloyds. Pre vious to her departure, he says, she under went an unusually thorough inspection,which resulted iu a removal of her rate.

The Ilegista of Naples contains the follow ing amount of the loss of two gentlemen in the crater of 'Vesuvius, who with great tomer. ity, insisted on being lowered down to the dark cavern Muni diately below the orifice of the crab r.—A party was formed to ascend Mount 'Vesuvius on Friday aideemie, to the Calk! di Europa. The party consisted of two Amt ricansd twee Englishmen and one French man. On Sunday night they took carriage from the Cdr, for Resins, reaching there at half past eleven. hiving procured horses, guides, •nd other O,CeESILIieS, they started, for the burning mountain and began the ascent, one Luigi Garogiii leading as cicerone, and ar rived at the his.- of the uppermost cone, fur ther than horses do uri: l ;u The tour lets then beg: n the ascent over Oat hillock 7 nnd boulders of lava until the vicinity of the crater was reached, when M ssrs. James Wit. cox and Francois Le `. inn., an American and a Frenchman, insisted on being towered down to the cavern winch is forme' below the mouth of the volcano. The guides who pro• vide theinaeltrix; with ropec for that 'purpose, complied with the request of the foreigners and lowered them down. The mountain tie ing perfectly quiet, no danger was rinticipa• ted; but when one of the party above the cra. ter called out to the rash adventurers no an ewer was returned. The guides growing anxious, cried, "Gentlemen, it would be bet- ter for you to kohl on to the cud of the ropes." Still the ropes remained slam, and lb; answer came from the sulphurous and murky cavern below. Twenty minutes passed and the Ott venturers were yet silent. It was then proposed that one of the guides should he lowered down and hold on to the ropes until he had investigated theappearance of the cavern base. lie had hardly entered when he cried out lustily, "Su I su f non c'e niento chin unn pintra strettissima I" (Up I tip I these's nothing here but a very narrow rock !) Aslas as any living person can tell the rest, the unfortunate strangers, the victims of hit it own imprudence, were hurled Into the mys. talons abysses of Mount Vesuvius. In the mine meth, sixteen years ago, two Englishmen o( birth and fortune and a French comedian committed the same terrible error. The same ambitition which urged them to scale the icy heights of the Matterhorn 'also nerved them to search lusiduous Vesuvius while it slept, and they were either lost in some labyrinth of lava and ashes or smothered by vapor• of sulphur, Tho 11loilou Hormel llttrket A Boston paper says: The horse market 'ls dis-easy, the demand for horses, however, being much in excess of the Supply. call rides are not easy of access.

The unexampled rise In iron In England reached a higher point In October than It had reached before in the present century. There have been frequent risings before, but on no occasion had the prices reached so high as in the present year,as the lollowing table of prices In the different years will show : • X.

The last ac counts from England also show a decline en prices, so that the turning point has been reached, and we may expect a consideraule de cline to take place gradually, unless the con flict with labor, which must inevitably take place, and which in some districts has already been commenced, should be prolonged. The follow ing article, which we copy from the Col liery Guardlati, shows that the difficulties have already been commenced, which, if not recon• ciled, will present rather a gloomy aspect for the coming winter: "'flee ironmasters of Monmouthshire and South Wales have taken a bold step ; they have served the whole of their workmen with notice that at the end of a month from Saturday last they will close their establishments. Such a step as this, it need hardly be said, has not been resolved upon without due consideration. A lockout at works which in the aggregate em ploys upwards of 60,000 men cannot be effected without enormous loss to the employers and suffering to the employed. In South Wales, where the prosperity of the whole district may be said to depend upon the ironworks, the re sult of such a step will be widespread misery and ruin. If, then, a cessation of industrial operations takes place, and it appears highly probable that such will be the case, the public will, not unnaturally, ask upon whose should ers the primary responsibility for the catastro phe ought to be laid. In the present instance, the answer seems plain. The first blow has already been struck by the Miner's Union. In deciding for a general lockout, the masters arc not commencing hostilities, but are simply de fending themselves from an organized attack directed against their very existence by a powerful and extensive combination. In his address to the miners at Walsall, Mr. Halliday, the President of the Amalgamated Association of Miners, has sought to place a different con. struction upon the impending crisis• Most er roneously—not to use a strongel' word—lee represents the threatened lockout as an at tempt on the part of the masters to crush the Union. If a determined resistance to a series eelnt azgri ssive demidids on the part of the col ons is an attempt to crush the Union, well then the masters may plead guilty to the charge, but ant otherwise. A plain statement of the lasts of the case will, we think, estab lish these assertions and show that the mas ters, in the course•eavy are pursuing, are adopt• ing the only line which is open to them. Ever since the arbitrators,who were engaged at tile I.frginning of the present year to settle the dispute in the steam coal trade, issued their award,making the rate of wages in that branch of the coal trade dependent on the rate paid in the pits of the ironmasters, the Union has per sistently been urging the men engaged in the latter to agitate fur constantly increasing ad vances. The pressure thus brought to bear on the ironmasters has been exceedingly severe. In some cases, they have yielded to the de mands made upon them, but only to find that uswil mesh qnonpaialost has ho t cl. f..llnwnn 1., newed application. 'file Union, however, has not been content merely tee make demands. It has resolutely endeavored to enforce them. Knowing that the ironiirorks depend for the means of existence upon an adequate supply el bituminous coal, the Union, with consider able tact, has incited the niece working this particular class of coal to demand the most ex orbitant terms. One of the Plymouth Iton Company's pits is nt the present moment sainting, and we ale sorry to add, filling wide water, because Mr. Fothergill has refused the colliers is further ad vatic, of something like-10 per cent Other pits are under not:ce for equally preposterous demands. So that the Union has actually left the masters no option hut to close their works altogether, or accede to what. nn the face of them, are grossly fu r reasonable claims. They have, as we think, wisely chosen the 6 irmer alternative. And, In doing so at the present time, they are amply Justified by the peculiar circumstances of the case and by the downward tendency of the iron market. To describe this course of con. duet as a policy of aggression—for so Mr. Ilal. liday unquestionably does--is simply' a misuse of tertm...t• I.ATE NEWS ITEMS Senator Wilson had a long Interview with the President (in Friday.

Te his affirmative re sponse to the query whether ho was married, the lady stated that She was oa her way from Cincinnati to meet her husband in New York, and that a crisis was impendieg, involving the alpearance of an additional passenger. This startled the conductor of course, but with a heart as big fie au- elephant ho sat to work to make the lady comfortable. All the passen gers were hastily shuffled into another car, and such female assistance as could be procured on the train was brought into requisition. In a brief time the little stranger—a fine bouncing girl is the phrase—put a an appearance, and the conductor congratulated hinted( on his es cape from a dilemma. With a heart over whelming with sympathy, he arranged an Im promptu wardrobe for the very young lady from his own underclothing. It was not ex actly in style of those " infant-outfits" adver tised is the papers, yet it served a good pur pose. But that is not rill. The train left Steuben ville on time,and was soon thundering through and around the hills of West Virginia, when the conductor received another shock. This time it was "a fine bouncing boy." Twins, by Jove ! One a Buckeye and the other a Pan- Handler. The remainder of Drury's linen went to start the little fellow on his journey through the world. Then for fear of what might happen, the train was hurried up. In due time it reached Pittsburgh and the lady and the two unticketed passengers were care fully conveyed to comfortable quarters at the at the Union Depot Hotel, when a telegram was forwarded to her husband in New York, which will probably lift him out of his boots. At last advlces the mother and children were doing well.—Pittaburg Dispatch, 22d. Zbeciat Notieco. UPILES OR HEMORRHOIDS! INTER EXTERNAL. BLIND, BLEEDING Art. ITCHING.
