FINANCIAL STRINGENCY.-The financial
indications in New York, Philadelphia and
some of the other principal cities are of e1-
treme stringency. 1t is the opinion of some
of the wisest that while general crash need
not be expected, the time is not far off when
the weak timbers in the financial structure
will give way. Prudence is the prevailing
idea in the business world. Several dry
goods failures are reported in Philadelphia
in the last few days. !.

ELECTION FRAUDS IN PHILADELPHIA
Intelligence has been received from Phila-
delphia, stating that the three Republicans
who were defeated for county officers, have
agreed to join issue and contest the election
in the Second and Fourth wards of that
city. 1t is said that nearly two thousand IL
legal votes were polled, and in the Sixteenth
ward large number of rebel refugees, tenn
porarily colonized there, were allowed to
vote after the Inspector and judge had been
beaten from the polling booth. If these
things be proved, Judge Williams will be
awarded the place on the Supreme Bench
for which he was nominated.

Counterfeiters and Repudiators.

The appearance of large amount OF well
exc uted counterfeit bonds has occasioned
no small degree of anxiety in financial cir
cles Heavy losses have been incurred by
the acceptance of these spurious bonds, and
a feeling of uncertainty and distrust has
spread in the community. In consequence
of this there is spontaneous rising of in
dignation against the unknown perpetrators
of the fraud, both because of the positive
loss inflicted, and because of the distui bance
of confidence in the transaction of financial
business among honest men.
But If this spontaneous sense OF justice Is
arrayed against the counterfeiter who dis
turbs business confidence and depreciates
| the Government securities, why should it
not be equally aroused against reckless po-
lltical partisans, who, wantony or for ends
as selfish as those of the eounterfeiter, en-
deavor to destroy public confidence in those
securities and to depreciate their real value,
by advocating modes of payment which are
in fact no payment, or by proposing new
conditions of contract involving loss and
damage to those who bought the bonds In
good faith2 On the score of results, the
counterfeiter does less damage than the par
tisan. On the score of intentions, they are
alike, in prosecuting their schemes for their
own gain, and to the inevitable loss of other
parties, in proportion to their success.
Valandigham, Pendleton, Butler and those
who CO. operate with them in this attempt,
rank properly with the unknown artists OF
guilt who have issued the spurious bonds.
1t is rascality under another name.-Tete-

Nor OvER.-In Maryland and Missouri,
as we'll as in the secret councils of the Ohio
Democracy, the rebellion is not yet consid
cred over. Mr.. M'Clure, NJ. G. from Mis-
souri,, communicates to the st. Louis Demo
cras copy of letter addressed by prom
inent ex rebel of that State to another who
has had enough of it, which states that ''the
time is close at hand when we will have all
our past Troubles to contend with again, but
it would be on q different scale to some ex-
tent" And, better proof than all, General
Shelby has received private letter from
General f. p. Blair, warning him Ito be in
readiness, that war is undoubtedly to be and
is near at hand"

THE CIVIL RIGHTS BLL.-In another
column we publish the decision OF Chief
Justice Chase, at Baltimore, on the 10th OF
October, on the petition of colored zap
prentice girl to be discharged from restraint
Under the apprentice system, it seems, the
girl was as much restrained of her liberty as
she had been previous to gaining her freedom
from slavery. The Chief Justice decides
that, under the Civil Rights Bill, colored
persons are citizens of the United States the
same as whites, and no citizen can be held
in involuntary servitude, except liz punish
ment of crime.

WHAT A REBEL PAPER THINKs.-The
Mobile Times, a paper which daily gives
vent to the bitterest TRADES against the Rad
icals, commenting on the result of the late
elections says:
''In Ohio, where the Republican ticket is
defeated only by few thousand votes, the
negro-suffrage question falls before more than
eighty thousand. 1t is the voice of eighty
thousand Radicals, added to that of a far
larger number of Democrats, which yells in
fury to the negro of the South: ''You shall
not rule this land-nay, nor even participate
in ruling it"
Not so the South More confident in the
task of preparing for brighter future, the
masses they so long and so carefully nursed
mp to civilization, they feel no such animos-
ity, and if the infamous acts of the regis
trars had not disfranchised the whites and
cast the power into the hands of the blacks,
for the benefit of their vile leaders, the for
mer master would have looked perhaps with
surprise, but without anger, on his slave
following him to the polls.
