And, to cap the climax of this gross injustice,
this honest and gentlemanly editor IS KIND
enough to say that the reason why we did not
advise Ant.Slavery men to vote for Scott IS
because our living depended upon keeping up a
third organization-in other words, bread ana
butter is stronger with us than conscience, OF
patriotism or any other honest consideration.
Do such men never reflect that, in thus I'M
putting to others the most grovelling motives OF
action, without appearing to be conscious that
they are saying anything particularly insult
ing, they are exposing the motives which too
frequently actuate themselves
The same misrepresentation of the Era we
observe in our Wisconsin exchanges; but for
tunately the Wisconsin Democrat was enabled
promptly to expose it.
The following paragraph, in the Ashtabula
Sentinel shows that the Cleveland Herald in
which the garbled extract first appeared, hon
orably confessed and explained its error:
The Cleveland Herald very promptly cor
reefs the misuse and garbling of the extracts
from the National Era, which we pointed out
last week and the editors say they were mis-
led by person who handed them the article
ready clipped, they supposng it all right"
The Summit Beacon, (O) has done the same
thing We trust that the other Wing papers
that have been mised in this matter, will do
us Justice.

THE FOREIGN ELEMENT IN OUR POPULATION

The New York Tribune publishes tables
prepared from the returns of the Census show
ing the proportion of the foreign to the native
population of New York State The results
are thus summed up;
4" 1t appears that out of 3,O9735S souls,
which compose the population of New York,
2,l39 800 were born in the United States
S4,S20 in England 343, II in Ireland 81 600
in Scotland and Wales; 49, 1913 in Germany
~, 200 in British America: and that the num-
Der of residents of foreign birth in all the
State is COS 062, or about two-ninths of the
whole people
The proportion is greater in New York than
in the country at large. These calculations
should allay the apprehensions of those ner-
vous people who are constantly fearing dread
full consequences from the excess of foreign
population among us Of these 65S, 900 resi-
dents the English Scotch, and Welch, do not
affiliate with the IRISH nor the Irish with the

LITERARY NOTICE.

ANNA HAMMER; a tale of contemporary German lie
Translated from the German of femme by Alfred
II. Guernsey. New York Harper Brothers tor
sale by Franck Taylor.
This is one of series of tales published IN
Germany, under the head of New Pictures OF
Contemporary German Life femme, the
author, bore a conspicuous part in the Revol'l-
ton of lS4s, for which he suffered long I'M
prisonment, though he was finally tried ana
acquitted. As story, the book possesses many
beautiful and interesting points, yet It's chle'
merit lies in the clear and comprehensive pc
ture it presents of the social and political con
dition of modern Germany. Less artistic skill
is manifested than deep, earnest sympathy fol
the sorrows of the Fatherland.

THE OPINION OF THE PRESS ON THE RESULTS
OF THE ELECTION

The Baltimore Sun cOntrlyes generally 10 be
on the popular side-when it is well ascertain
ed 1t attributes SCOTS defeat to the fact that
he was 80 intimately identified with the oppo'
nents of the Compromise measures; and 1t con
siders the election of Pierce as triumph OF
Nationalism over SectiOnallsm.
The Baltimore Clipper, sort OF independent
Wing paper, says that the People have decided
by an Overwhelming vote. that the Democrat
ic policy is that which should be pursued land
it counsels the Wing Party now to disband, a.
it can never recover from the blow it has re
ccived
The New York Tribune regards the result
as a verdict against the Wing doctrines of Pro
lection and River and Harbor improvements
and in favor of the Slavery Propaganda. 1t Is
bitter against Mr.. Giddngs, of whom 1T says,
no man has contributed more to this result.
The New York Euening Post finds the key
to the result in the outrageous prottlgacy and
waste of the Wing Administration and 1t
thinks Scotts overwhelming defeat has dis
PEELED the illusion that military prestige is all
powerful in this country.
The Washington Union is extatic and en-
nhatic and assigns two reasons for the result,
as follows: The Sectionaism Of the Wing
Party was an outrage on the Constitution and
the. People: its reliance upon mere military re-
nown and service was an outrage on public
intelligence and every principle of public lib
erty
The Journal Of Commerce says it is a verdict
of the people in favor of the Compromise in all
it. parts of the Tariff of 1916 in its essential
features, and Of the measures generally Of the
Democratic Party and a condemnation of
Sewardisn, with all that class of ultra doctrines
which have been presented by the Albany
Evening Journal and the New York Tribune.
The New York Dag Book is glad The Wing
Party had lost its good old conservatism, and
become Seward and Greeley Party, and Gen.
Scott was forced upon the country by the
tyranny of dishonest tricksters. The Day
Book offers up thanks to God for the triumph
of the real conservatism Of the country over
such fanaticism.
The New York Mirror says that SCOTS per-
sondl popularity was all fiction: " the military
fire went out with Gen. Taylor the drum and
life drama would not bear rehearsal: Scott i
barren speeches and zig-zag travels lost him
votes by hundreds of thousands more, and
worse than ALL Scott was brought forward and
sustained by that faction of the Wings which
has set itself against Silver Grays and Union
Wings. Hence his defeat
A telegraphc dcspatch-probably from an
operator for thc New York Herdd-announce
to the New York Tribune that Scott himself
attributes his overthrow, first of ALL to the New
York Heraid, and then to Daniel Webster

THAT GARBLING.

We are sorry to see that the Wing papers of
the West generally gave currency to that
shameful misrepresentation of our article on
tn Presidential Preferences Uf Froe-Soilers,
which we noticed last week. The Ddiy Re
publican, of Cincinnati made II great deal OF
it, and seemed to think that since DR.. Bailey
had recommended the support of Gen. Scott,
of course the Free Sellers would no longer
hesitate! Ridiculous! The Republican editor
knows rs little of Free Sellers as he does of
the National Era. OF all parties in this coun-
try. the Free Democracy is the most accustom-
cd to do its own thinking and acting
The editor of the Xenia Torch Light, once a
Free. Soiler, also garbles our article, and says
is it possible to offer to Anti-Slaycry men a
stronger argument in favor OF Gen. Scott than
that contained in the following paragraph
clippod from the National Era, the national
organ of the Hale men! Ii is true, that the
reasoning of DR.. Bailey docs not lead HIM to
advise Ant.Slavery men to vote Tor Scott be-
cause he is Interested in keeping up the organ
yaton of third party, upon which he Is de-
pendent for support; but We cannot see how
any honest, dsinterested Anti. Slavery man ear
read his argument, and not be forced to the
conclusion that it is his most imperative duty
TO vote for the candidate who can be reliet
upon to prevent the increase of Slavery"
And so he copies the paragraph in which w
were exhibiting the reasons of those Free-Soil
ers, who, though determined to vote for thc
own nomination, preferred ON the whole thu
success of Scott to Pierce imputes to us the
reasoning; omits our statement OF the view
of those Free Sellers who, while voting the
own ticket preferred the election of Picsce II
Scott and also omits our statement of the rea
sons ON which We INDICATED the course of tn
entire Party 10 rejecting both Scott an'
Pierce, and in sustaining Hale!
