A PAINFUL RUMoR.-A rumor pre-
vailed in the city yesterday that Mr..
VIM. Jarvis. highly respectable citi-
zen of this county, who left week
ago, to-day. for Europe, had been
murdered aud robbed somewhere on
the line of the O. & NJ. Railroad.
There were several versions of the
rumor, but after diligent inquiry we
could trace none Of them to a definite
or reliable source. aud one or two of
them, we learned, we're positively
false. II was said dispatch had been
received to that effect, but no such
dispatch had been eeceived at the
Telegraph Office Another report
was to the effect that some man had
carried the intelligence to the family
Of Mr.. Jarvis, and, as proof, had re-
turned his pocket-book and a draft
payable to his order, in New York.
for $500. We could, however, find no
one who knew more about it than
that it was current rumor, and we
put no faith in it. In such a case
some positive intelligence would GER
tainly have been received.
REcoRDER's CoURr.-There was
fair days work in the Recorders
Court yesterday, chiefly DRINKS. John
Darsch was not only drunk, but dis
orderly, and it cost him fue of 50,
with So costs. John Slevich, who
was in his company, drunk but not
noisy or disorderly, was fined 81, with
81 50 costs.
Charles Hoffman got drunk enough
to cost him fine of 81, with 81 95
costs. He abideth in the lookup.
Christian Harsley, who violated his
habit-kept up for thirty year.-of
getting drunk every sunday and be
having himself and working industri-
ously the rest of the week, by getting
drunk on Tuesday, was called upon
yesterday to pay for his folly, out not
being able to raise the funds, went to
the lookup. He had got drunk on
Sunday and hid himself from the
police in. a cellar somewhere, and,
elated by his success, thought he
would try week day drunk. He has
no doubt already repented.

THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS.

A day or two before the Maine election the
New York Herald had an unusual and violent
attack of common sense. 1t published an
article in which it proved by reference to past
political history that Radical victories in
Vermont and Maine would be utterly without
significance. This is true enough, although
it does not give credit to the Democracy for
any material gains that might be made in
those States Here is what the Herald said
We find, then, that Vermont, which led off in
the election of 1852, gave twenty.six thousand
Republican majority, being an increase over its
msjority for Lincoln in 1850. Maine followed with
thirteen or fourteen thousand Republican majority.
But when the October elections came Pennsyl.
vania, which had given Lincoln sixty thousand
majority two years before, turned over to the
Democracy by nearly four thousand majority;
Ohio changed its twenty thousand for Lincoln into
six thousand for the Democratic ticket and Indi.
ana, which he'd given Lincoln twenty. -four thous-
and over Douglas, elected Democratic officers By
ten thousand majority. This was the beginning OF
the revolution, and it was followed by similar re.
suits in other great States, so that had president
been elected in 1862, the Democrats would have
been successful by the following electoral vote,
based on the elections of that year:

ONE DAY MORE ON THE LAKE.

The two days regattas at the lake end Of
the new shell road have been SO pleasant and
successful that the citizens of New Orleans
have determined, under the auspices of the
Crescent City Yacht Club, to offer purse of
$3.50 to-day for sweepstake race. The
amount of subscription is S25, the subscrip-
tion to go to the second yacht; but should
the subscriptions exceed the purse, the larger
amount shall be the first prize. The swift
and beautiful Harlequin and GladioId, from
Mobile, and the Xiphias and Myrtle, from
New Orleans, are entered. The sailing quail
ties of these vessels are so nearly equal in the
eyes of the public and their respective
friends, that a most exciting race may be
looked for. There may also be further en-
tries made-probably the Domino, the Minnie
Gilmor, the Elephant and others. The Myrtle
is witch-a regular water witch-the Xiphias,
that was beaten two days successfully last
month by the Gladiola, has beaten that skim
mer twice in return, and the Domino has
been hard on the quarter of both in every
struggle. We hope Major Tracy will enter
the Domino. 1t will then be Philadelphia,
New York and Algiers contending for the
palm.
The race will commence at three P. NJ. The
Canal street car starts from opposite the Clay
statue every five minutes, carrying one as far
as the Half Way House, for five cents. The
walk from the car to the boat is hardly fifty
yards, and the fare only twenty-five cents,
forward and back. The fresh lake air, the
change of scene, the pleasure and excitement
of the regatta, and great many other con-
Lake End, to-day, one of the cheapest, most
delightful and invigorating that could be fam
cied
1t is further mysteriously whispered that
Johnny Clements, the renowned, the bull sea
dog of the Southern coast, is to command the
Harlequin. If so, -.

WHAT THEY WANT WITH GRANT.-The New
York Tribune devotes column after column to
the discussion of Grants military career, as if
the most essential of all things to qualify
man for the presidency waste know how to
fight. Concede, for arguments sake, all that
is claimed for him on this score, and what
relevancy has it to the question of the presi-
dency for the next four years, if in those
years we would have profound peace as the
result Of Grants election? The only expla-
nation of the importance which the Radicals
attach to Grants fighting qualifications, is
that they do not expect peace under the next
presidency; that they expect IN some way
and under some pretext, TO reopen civil war,
and to wage it persistently and mercilessly
until they have arrived at results more salts
factory to their political purposes than the
conclusion of the late contest gave them.
Greeley complains that the war which ended
ut Appomattox Court House was brought to a
close too soon. And this is unquestionably
the thought of all the Radical leaders. Bent
on having another war, they very naturally
wish to have the next President and wish to
have in him, not a statesman, but warrior
This is what they want with Grant-to make
war. "Let us have peace"

Commander Jefries, of the U. S. ship
Swatora, recently visited Liberia and found
that the sensible negroes of that melanthro-
pic colony are violently hostile to the Radical
plan of comforting the right of suffrage on the
recent emancipated blacks of the United
States. The Liberians will not permit the
native Africans to vote, and they think that
the late slaves are no more fit to participate
in public affairs than the barbarous negroes of
Ashantee or Dahomey. Greeley and Sumner
ought to get up a reconstruction act for Libe-
ria, appoint Sheridan military governor regis
ter all the native "trooly loil" cannibals, and
disfranchise the rest. Then Liberia would be
prepared for admission into the Union and
the privilege of carpet-bag representation in
Congress.
