PITTsBURG.
Large Democratic Mass Meeting.

PITTsBURG, October 5.,-The De-
mocracy held an immense mass meet
ing here to-day. Preparations had
been made on large scale. No eff
fort had been spared to make it the
greatest demonstration ever seen in
Pennsylvania. The day was fair and
beautiful. Delegations from the coun-
try were numerous and large.
The procession was two hours aud
ten minutes in passing given point.
Business houses and residences along
various portions of the route were
profusely decorated with flags, Chi
nese lanterns, &c. - oaH
Among the distinguished speakers
present are Hons. g. III. Pendleton,
Heister, Clymer, Edgar, Cowan, and
others.
The torchlight procession tonight
is a grand affair. The streets along
the route of the procession are
thronged with people, and many of
the buildings are brilliantly illumi-
mated.

The Emperor is satisfied that paper
or silk cartridges are not suitable for
breech- loading arms, and heais about
determined to adopt the metallic car
fridge closely resembling those in use
by the United States. -
AS the radical change in the style
of small arms will require some time,
complete peace may be considered as
sured until it is effected, unless some
other nations make war. ItFill re-
quire eight months to alter the arms
of the French, and you need not look
for war before next Spring or Sum

Deceived by the statements of the
Courjcr, that the Democracy wanted
a fair election, and would haveift at
any cost, the Republican Central
Committee, yesterday, petitioned the
City Council to offer a reward of 500
for any and every case in which
person was eqpyJcted sof casting an.
illegal vote and SO, for a proved case.
of an attempt to vote Illegally. This
policy has been, adopted by other Cit.
les with suoeess,a and 1T was exhected
that the Council would pass the, re- re-
qu;red order without hesitatious sor
dissension. But cur .Democ ratio
Council regarded the petition as an
insult Mr.. Councilman JONES. ~ of
the Third Ward, in 'particular, was was
grossly insulted toi,tbink that the
Honorable Body, of which he is a
shining light should be asked to
make provision for the detection of
fraud. Mr. JONES knows his party
well. He is fully conversant with its
tender spots. We are not surprised
that he should eobject to Offering
any reward for the detection of fraud
and rascality. We confess, however,
to some surprise that other Demo
cratic Councilmen, of whom better
things might be expected, should OBJ
iect.to doing their utmost to secure
an honest and fair election.

The ChessepOt Gun a Complete Fall
bad ure.

New .YoRK, October 5.-A Paris
letter to the Herald states that the
Chassepot gun is complete failure,
and one of the most dangerous wea-
pons ever Supplied to an army. The
Emperor, l have reason to believe, is
in full accord with the ordnance
Officers, and has determined to change
the arm for a better one. With that
view a new series of experiments
have been instituted to ascertain
where the arm can be altered as to
become efficient and praiseworthy.
Two or three systems of alteration
have been tried and it is possible that
one on an American plan will be
adopted, and withal radical change
in the character of the ammunition.

Vino Can Vote


We congratulate the people ol
Evansville on the prospect of having
a quiet ard pleasant election. The
Courier insists that the election shall
be fair-that none but legal voters
shall vote-and for once we find our
selves agreeing with it. In order
that we may see who is entitled to
vote, we turn to Article III, Section 2,
Of the Constitution, which reads as
follows:
SEC. 2 In all elections. not other
wise provided for by this Constitu-
tiOn, every white male citizen of the
United States, of the age of twenty
one years and upwards, tcho shall
hGUe resided 5R the State during the
SIC months IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING
such election; and every white male.
OF foreign birth, of thea age of twenty
one years and upwards, who shall
have resided in the United States one
year, and shall have resided In this
State during the siS months in1Doed5-
Qtety preceding such election, and shall
have declared his intention to become
citizen of the United States, con-
formally to the laws of the United
States on the subject of naturaliza-
ton, shall be entitled to vo te an the
tot9nshiP or precinct Sohers he may re-
side"
By this it viii be seen that an aetuah
residence Of six months insneediateIy.
preceding the election is necessary to
entiile one to vote at our State elec-'
ton. Now what does the Constitu-
tion mean by the word resided ?'''
Webster defines the word as follows:
1 Reside limp. 4 pp. Resided.l Ito.
Tcorsnue to sit; to remain; to dwell
permanently or for length of time =
to abide continuously; to have ones
dwelling or home; to remain for a
long time. 2--To have a scat or fixed
position: to inhere; to lie or be as an
attribute or element"
In the case Of married men, the
location Of their families at once de-
termines their residence. In the case,
however, of single. men, they must
have actually been living in the State
during the six months preceding the
election. 1t viii not do for them to
go to the polls and say they consider
this their home. The question for
them TO answer, on oath, is have you
been living Of remaining 10 this State
during the past six months? 1.-THE
voter has been living in Kentucky
during that time he cannot Uote with
out committing perjury and voting
Illegally. HFk T#E #E3fJ 6.5I
The questions for Inspectors to pro-
pound 70 suspicious voters, are:
]. Rave you a family7 s4-8s 1.
2. Where have you been staying
during the past six months2
3. Have you had residence in the
State during the past six months, and
ifso, where2 -a.t oi sr-. 1. h-" 4" hH
4. Have YOU BEEN living in this

If a voter can answer these. interro-
gatories in the affirmative, there can
be no obiectiops to receiving his vote.
If not the fact that his name is on the
Registry docs not entitle him to vote,
and his ballot must be refused. OF
course, where q voters name isa not
on the Registry List he must make an
affidavit, as provided by the Regis

Street IMPROVEMENTS.

Have the leaders of the JOURNAL
observed the fearful increase of ex-
penditures in the Street Commission
ers' Department under the economical
Democratic Council now in power? ?
The amount paid out during the past
week for work on the streets was over
twelve hundred dollars-more than
too hpadred dollars per day. Will
somebody inform us what is done with
all this money? There is no evidence
that it is applied with any Judgment,
or that the streets are any the better
for the outlay. By reference to the
proceedings Of the Council for cor
responding weeks last year. we find
the blowing allowances:
lssaqs e WEEK ENDING SEPT. 30.
zaPp Brigade 90
1t9 uaIl WEEK ENDING OCT. s..
Zapp $3.50 Sc
From this it will be see that while
keeping the streets in repair under an
extravagant Republican administra-
ton it cost two hundred and eighty
Raollars per a0eek. under an economical
EDemocratic Council it cost over
taoeiUs hundred dollars per loee6. What
think tax payers of the difference
Does not this account for the neces-
sity-of the large increase in the rate
of taxation? ButNwhy is the cost OF
keeping streets in repair increasing so
rapidly just before the election? Is
it necessary to provide comfortable
places for voters that they may be on
hand on the 18th? 1t Is bad enough
to be overrun by imported voters,
without being heavily assessed to pay
their expa9se3 IaAG ~

much of the postal tax as provided
