A gentleman in one of the departments at

which we publish below. He numbers each
letter of the alphabet, and then adds the num-
hers corresponding to the letters composing the
two tickets-Seymour and Blair, and Grant
and Colfax. Theresult shows In for Seymour
and Blair, and 140 for Grant and Colfax, the
total being 317, which is the number of votes
in the electoral college. Thus:

General Buffers Congressional district has
given him the cold shoulder. Notwithstand-
ing his services in the impeachment trial !;
his services at Dutch Gap, Fort Fisher and
elsewhere, and the custom of indorsing
member by returning him the second time,
he was compelled to give place to another
We think that the Republican party, in this,
did just what they ought to have DONE We
hardly expected that Massachusetts con-
vention would have had the courage to have
thus acted /; but they did it, and, we repeat,
that in this they have done well.
Thus far we widely differ from the New
York World, whose article is here appended
The World regrets Buffers defeat We
thinktha there is greater reason to rejoice,
as in our judgment no worse man than
Butler lives or ever did live, if such thing
is possible; and if we are to have members of
Congress, let US have men whom somebody
has confidence in and respect for The World
says
We somewhat regret to announce the de-
feat Of the great and good Doctor BENJAMIN
F. Butler for the regular nomination for Con-
gress in his district. 1t seems that the Con
vention concluded they could better spare
better man for Representative, and that Fort
Fisher tactics availed not. The Doctor, how
ever, will run as stump candidate, and will
spend his bottom dollar pawn his last spoon,
and melt down all his plate including the
monographs of the original owners thereon,
before he will be beaten. What show he
will stand, cannot now be seen 1t is likely
the greenback policy the Doctor favors
hashed his hopes. If 80, he should have
stuck to gold, as it is reported he used to in
New Orleans, yea, stuck to it as closely as it
is alleged he clenched that which belonged
to Banker Smith and DR.. Campbell, of New
Orleans Always provided that good Dem
ocrat cannot be elected in the Gloucester Dis
trict, we say to Massachusetts, Give to Con-
gress DIR. Butleragain. Your Radical minor
| ity in the next House will need him on the
Committee of Appropriations That is his
best hold. Aside from Connover and CALI
colt, who are literally barred, there is no
Radical who SO accurately represents his
party, whether as a statesman or military
chief Let not Republicans display the in
gratitude predicated of republics.

The Maine election points
to the election of Genel al
Grant by a majority some
thing like J.incoln's mgiori-
ty Of the electoral vote of
1854. The October State
elections in Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana will settle
the question. From all the
developments before us, Ohio
and Indiana are already
back again in the channel
of the campaign Of 1854; but
We have nothing very def
mite as yet of the drift of
public opinion in Pennsyl-
vania, although 1t will doubt
less be carried by the gener-
al popular pressure. Last
year, on q vote which fell
short of the vote of1S68 some
sixty thousand, the Demo-
Gratis carried the State by
nine hundred majority. In
1866. on q full vote, the Re-
publicans elected their Gov
|ernor by seventeen thousand.
The same issues being up
again now the same result
may follow in the coming
October election, and IL so
the Presidential election
will be settled and the gen.
eral election OF Novem or
will be reduced to q mere
formality.

When tho plantation Bitters were first made
known TO the American people some seven years
ago, it was supposed they were entirely new
thing, and had never before been used. So far as
their general use in the United States is concerned
this may be true. 1t also true that the same Bit
ters we're made and sold in the island of St. Thomas
over forty years ago, as any old planter merchant
or sea captain doing business with the West Indies
will tell you. 1t is distinctly within my recolec-
ton that on the return of my father (who was sea
captain and doing extensive trade in the tropics
he would invariably have tho Bitters among the
ships stores and our family sideboard was never
without them. For any sickness, it matters no.
how severe or trhng the decanter of these Btters,
by different name, was always resorted to as a
sovereign remedy.

CONSOLIDATION OF CoRPoRATIoNs-We learn
that steps will be taken TO bring before the next ses
sion Of the Legislature the subject of consolidating
the corporations of Knoxville and East Knoxville.
We commend this as movement sustained by
common sense and reasons of public policy There
is no good reason why, with our population and
entire unity Of interest, there should be two city
governments. Now is the time TO move in this mat
ter, and let II be done. There is no good reason
why the Fifth Ward of Knoxville proper should
not be brought into the corporation precisely the
sane footing as other wards. Heretofore the taxes
OF shat ward have been applied TO the Improvement
of The streets in that portion of the city Whether
this arrangement has anything to do with the un-
improved and wretched condition of the streets
thete or not, we will not pretend TO say but reform
IN that locality is much needed. No portion of our
city will become populated more rapidly than that,
and it behooves the authorities 10 see that II is prop
erly improved.
Let the corporations be consolidated and the cor
poration limits enlarged. Then, with an energetic
board Of municipal officers, who will devote their
energies 10 the improvement of the city, the rapid
growth Of Knoxville for the two years past will not
be tithe Of what it will be in years to come
No one can oppose such scheme as this, in our
humble opinion, unless he is actuated by local or
selfish m olives.
