Total.

To this, a requisite majority, may be
added the eight votes of Missouri. The
total will be one hundred and sixty-seven
votes. A majority of the electoral college
will be obtained from these Northern
States without the aid of single South
ern vote.
Nor do we deem this calculation ex-
travagant. Connecticut in the last Gov
ernor's election gave James E. English Il
majority of nine hundred and seventy
seven votes. In the last four years the
vote on the Democratic side has increased
nearly three thousand five hundred. 1t
is beyond doubt that, under the head of
those gallant Democrats, English, Eaton,
and Thomas H. Seymour, the Democratic
majority will be largely increased next
November.
New York, in her last State election,
gave a Democratic majority of 1890.
This was the first Democratic victory in
FIVE years. The city of New York is
largely Democratic. til true that in the
city the merchants cherished an enthusi-
astic preference for Chase, and, therefore,
there has been, and perhaps still exists a
lukewarmness, arising more from a feel
ing Of disappointment than disafection.
But New York-both city and State
have more at stake in the success of the
Democratic ticket next Fall than any
other State and city of the North. Their
shrewd, sharp, sagacious, business men
know and appreciate this fact, and will
not fail to give an active, hearty support
to the Democratic ticket. Mr.. Seymour
is one whom New Workers take pride in
and delight to honor. John T. Hoffman
will probably be the Democratic candi-
date for Governor. Seymour and Hoff-
man is such combination as will bring
out enthusiastically the whole Democrat
ic vote. New York will poll her electoral
vote for Seymour and Blair by a majority
double that of her last State election.
New Jersey has always been true to
DEMOCRACY, with the exception of the
single year 1865. In 1867 the Democrats
Of New Jersey polled amajorityof 1880.
In 1868 this majority will be largely aug
mented for Seymour and Blair.
The twenty-six votos of Pennsylvania
can be counted upon with certainty, for
Seymour and Blair. The Keystone State
has lopg been identified with Democracy,
both by interest and sentiment In 1867,
Judge Sharswood (Democrat), was elected

Terrible State of Affairs in
Middle Tennessee.
. War of Races Appre-
hended.

A terrible state Of affairs exists in Will
hanson and Maury counties, in this State,
which is the direct result Of the radical
policy and more particularly of the infa-
nous abuse Of the pardoning power by
Governor Brownlow, by which loyal men
are permitted to commit all kinds of
crime with impunity.
The latest phase Of the negro war in
Williamson, is thus related by the Nash
vile Banner Of the Dist:
In Sunday mornings issue we gave the
particulars of the shooting of negro
named VIM. Cuisine, at Franklin, for
brutally outraging the person of a young
white girl named Ezell, aged about thir-
teen years, and also for committing out
RACES upon the persons of two small color
ed girls. His execution took place on
Friday night at midnight, and was suppos-
ed to have been done by the Kuklux, or
at least by persons in disguise and I'M
known to our informant.
The bloody sequel to this tragic affair,
it is our painful duty to have to record
this morning. At half-past twelve o'clock
on the Saturday nightsucceeding the sum
mary execution of the black fend, a
young man by the name of Jeremiah
Ezell, half-brother, we believe, to the
young lady who was outraged, was shot
and killed near Franklin, on the Carter's
Creek Pike, by a. band of negroes in am
bush. The negroes, it is thought, we're
led by white men, and numbered about
fifty.
Young Ezell with party of other young
men was returning from Franklin. The
party numbered eight persons and were
not disguised, and were proceeding quie-
thy along the road. The following are the
particulars, SO far as we have been able to
gather them up to the hour of going to
press: On last Saturday it was reported
in Franklin that the negroes in the vicin-
ity, incensed at the killing of Cuisine,
were threatening mob violence toward the
white citizens, and that they intended to
burn the town. A correspondent who
furnishes these particulars, informs us that
some of the citizens from the suburbs and
around the place, came to him and asked
him if he thought they would be needed,

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court by
majority of nine hundred and twenty-five,
over distinguished and accomplished OPP
ponent who came into the field with a Re-
publican majority of l7,l7S, and in spite
of decision which the Judge had made on
question relating.to lcgal-tepder notes,
which was exceedingly obnoxious to the
moneyed interests of the State. Pennsyl-
wanna will 60 for Seymour and Blair, and
Increase her Democratic majority more
than ten-fold.
Every one is familiar with the late
great reaction which has taken place in
Ohio, by which the negro suffrage .consti-
tuition was defeated by moro than fifty
thousand majority, and although that
sterling Democrat, Thurman, lost the Gov
ernorship by doubtful majority, both
branches of the Legislature was carried,
and sold Ben Wade" elected from his
Senatorial chair. The Democracy of Ohio
has been divided, split up into eOpperhead
factions, and war Democrats, and what
not. To-day the Dem party is Il
unit, all feuds have been buried and the
party is working enthusiastically and har-
m oniously.
In Indiana there has been great reac-
tion since 1866, the date of the last State
election, which gave Republican MAORI
ty. The Delegates to the Democratic
Convention pledge their State for the De-
mocracy, promising to follow the footsteps
Of Ohio.
Of the remaining States, Wisconsin and
Missouri are the only ones at all doubtful.
AS to Wisconsin, there is every indication
that the Democracy will triumph in. the
next election. Missouri-y undoubtedly
Democratic. The only element for doubt
is the Ubiquitous distiunchisement of IA
large class of her. citizens. But the Ger
man, element is indignant ut the frauds
and miquities practiced by the Radicals,
who now rule the State. We count conf
IDENTIFY on Missouri Tor the Democracy.
Taking general, broad, comprehensive
view, there is everything to encourage the
Democracy and warrant success. The
people are tired of war and the uncertain
ties of quasi war. they are tired Of
Radical misrulo and proligality. General
Grant is the exponent Of war. His idea
of government, by his own confession, cx-
tends no farther than the order book and
the bayonet. 70 elect the General Com
handing the armies OF the United States
the President OF the United States, is the
first step to military government, thus
| laying the foundation stone for an Empire
and crushing the corner stone Of the Re-
public. The precedent will not be witIi'
out avail. Each succeeding aspirant fol
Presidential honors will regard the sword
and epSElette ta5 ss7 warrapts fpr civil
power-the emblems Of civil virtue. The
people of the whole country, knowing the
danger which would inevitably ensue TIC
constitutional government on the election
Of General Grant, are determined to elect
Seymour and Blair, and thereby restore
peace and liberty, and the union of ourfore
fathers.

From the New York Sun, (Republi,an.) ID
Attacks On Gov. Seymour

Some of our Republican contemporaries
attempt to prejudice the prospects of the
Democratic ticket by intimating or assert
ing that Gov. Seymour is of too deicatea
constitution that the duties of the Presi.
dency will break down the balance of his
mind and make him insane. Tn that
event, as Senator Nye has asserted, Gen.
BLAIR would become President, and at
once carry out his programme of anarchy
and bloodshed.
This appears to us very imnroner
mode of political warfare, which must re-
COZ! upon those who employ it. 1t seems
designed to wound private feelings rather
than to advance any legitimate purpose.
Gov. Seymour is now 81 years old. He
has 'been many years in public life: he
has repeatedly been Governor of New
York, an office whose discharge exercises
quite as great strain upon the nervous
system and the mental faculties as that of .
the Presidency. In this station, and in
every other, Gov. Seymour has exhibited
capacity and steadiness which have given
him great reputation as a 'statesman.
There has been nothing in his public career
to justify this bugbear of possible insani-
~. we trust that our Republican friends
VII see the wisdom of combining their at
lacks to the principles, antecedents, plat.
formy and public acts of their opponents.
rather than to their real or imaginary per-
sonal or physical peculiarities.

was DIrs. su,rntf Murder
We ha>c %. TIE pleasure of General
But|ef's sopfdenee, but we should like to
know lbs opinion of Bingham at the pres
ent time. Several months ago General
Butler gave it as his deliberate opinion
that Bingham had been guilty of ''murder-
ing an innocent woman" Since that opin-
ion was expressed, many things have tran
spired which have tendency to prove
that Butler was correct. The evidence
produced before that military court,
presided over by General Hunter, did not
prove Mrs. Surratt criminal. But the
court was not organized for impartial
work, and Mrs Surrutt, who never heard
of plot which had for its object the as
sassination Of President Lincoln, was con-
derunod on suspicion. IN recent letter,
Il correspondent of a New York daily tells
how he was repulscd by that cruel and
bloodthirsty scoundrel, the Secretary of
War; who stood guard over the White
House and its occupant. How many in
tereeded for the relief of this woman we
shall never know, but the nation does
know that this same Stanton indecently
refused the requests of Mrs. Douglass and
Miss Surratt for admission to the Presi-
dent. Pbe disgrace Of the execution
which followed, is generally admitted to
have been the cause Of the death of one
distinguished Republican-but Stanton
seems to have rejoiced over it.
The trial of Surratt, the sou, BY iury
of his peers, for the same crime for which
his mother was executed, is familiar to the
public. After Il trial which lasted many
weeks, the jury stood two to one for ac-
Tquittah but could not agree. The gov
ernment had used every means to Justify
that horrible execution which shocked the
nation, and the result was complete fail
ure' And after a long delay, the charge
IS abandoned BY the government, and
another crime isnow alleged. That John
H. Sn'rait 'oas not guilty Of haring
conSpired TO take The life of .4braham
| N-'''NN"' y" "N'N uUWItkcu w inc counsel
TOR the Gorerame&t. That he knows
more of the plot than his mother did is
an admitted fact. II Mrs. Surratt was
guilty of the crime for which she was
hung, John H. Suratt is doubly guilty.
The admission'of the innocence of the son
is proof of Buffers assertion that Bing.
ham had succeeded in numbering an in
nocont woman"
The main charge now made against John
Il. Surrott is that he conSpirod to adduct
MIR. Lincoln, then President of the Unit
ed States. Should he be convicted, the
punishment will be Imprisonment for not
morf than five years, OF by fine not more
than ten thousand dollars, or 6y such fine
and Imprisonment both. The crime is a
mid one, compared with that of which he
was first accused Il, view of these facts
was not Mrs. Surratt murdered} Let an
intelligent public answer.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAs.-Noth-
ing of special interest to the public
transpired at the Court of Common
Pleas yesterday. In the morning
some motions and demurrers were
argued, after which the case of the
State VS.. George Anger, charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses,
was taken up. 1t will be remembered
that some time since Augur was en-
trusted. as it was alleged, with six or
seven hundred dollars by Mrs. Brag
Ter, as she alleged, with the under
standing that he was to accompany
her to New Orleans. Instead of do
ing this, he left the city with his fam
lily and went to Louisville, and was
there arrested aud brought to this
city. A preliminary examination was
had at the time of his return, and he
held to bail. Yesterday, as above
stated, the case was called In the
Court of Common Pleas. A motion
was made by the defendants attorney
to quash the indictment. The mo-
ton being sustained. Augur was dis
charged.
A negro girl, charged with the
crime of larceny, had hearing. In
her case the prosecuting attorney en-
tered anOlle prossequ. and she was
discharged from custody. The above
cases were all of interest in that court
yesterday.

RECORDER CoURT.-There was but
a slim attendance at the Recorders
Court yesterday The best that could
be done was TO get up two ca ses, both
for ordinary DRINKS. The first in at
tendance was VIM. Mcdonald. who,
on being lodged in the city prison.
commenced a general demolition of
all things around him-beds, bedding.
sc. For his drunkenness and mis-
conduct, he was fined and costed to
the amount of SIS.
John Myer, on the charge of drunk
enness, in fine and cost, was required
to pay s. even. which he did like a
little man. Hereafter the assess
ments of fines and costs in the Re-
corder's Court will be in even dollars.
The fractional will be left off. This
will facilitate the addition of fines
and costs.

FIGHT ON THIRD STREET.-An-
other fight occurred on Third Street,
between Main aud Sycamore, yester-
day, in which lank, lean and tall in
dividual got very roughly handled.
His face was badly bunged up. and he
had quite severe cut over one of his
eyes. He reported at the Third Street
Engine House, but would not tell the
name of the man who had shown him
such delicate attention. From the
indications of the past few days it
would appear that Fall fights had
commenced, and that a fresh invoice
of lighting whisky hal been received,
superior to that so much boosted of
by the Democrats last Spring. 1t is
an i'll wind that blows nobody good.
The Recorder aud Justices of the
Peace will be benefited by the Fall
fights, no doubt
