They say ''there should be no doubt of
Grant carrying at least these" They hope
for others, Of course, but venture to count only
the above This estimate, therefore, is con-
cession and admits the failure of radicalism in
the great States that have hitherto given 1t
force in the nation.
But what right have they to count even the
States they name They count them on the
strength of past votes but this is time in
which people go completely over from one
side to the other of political divisions, as we
recently saw in Oregon. From the fact that
we are reasoning for such period we should
be very slow to project the future from the
past New York Is not counted for Grant,
because of recent changes but how can any
man say that changes Of the same tendency
will not drop from the Grant list several of
the States given?
How many of the States named above are
so positively strong in the radical faith that
they can be counted upon despite contingency?
Only two-Massachusetts and Maine. These
alone are sure. 1t is, however, in the very
highest degree probable that Grant will carry
seven other States in the list-Rhode Island,
Vermont Kansas Minnesota, Iowa, Michigan
and Wisconsin. New Hampshire is not by
any means certainty for Grant, while Indiana
and Illinois, in the absence of slavery and the
broad war issue, are democratic States, and
will in all likelihood indicate o well defined
sympathy with the reactionary movements
against the party they have acted with for the
last two Presidential elections. No man has
any right to count West Virginia for any
party. 1t has no recorded prediction. II
has only voted in one Presidency, and then il
decided for the war, and for the simple reason
that its right to decide at ALL even its exist
ence as State, would at that time have been
denied by the other party.

Wall street has been in whirl of excitement
during the last few days, and unexpected
changes have come over the spirit of all the
markets Gold, after being engineered to $50
by few vagabond foreign and native bankers,
who claim that they can control its course,
was yesterday hammered by the same indi-
viduals to 1899, although it closed at la, with
an upward tendency, the decline having
apparently fully spent its force. 1t is to be
regretted that there is no law under which the
men who alternately run gold up and down
can be punished for the injury they inhict
upon the community far exceeds that resulting
from the depredations of those who fill our
pententiaries. The Gold Room itself is a public
nuisance, which Great Britain refused to
tolerate during the period of specie suspension
in that country, and the sooner it is rooted out
of existence here the better Those who have
been crying the premium down for week or
two will soon be crying il w again, aud the

large outstanding ''short" interest will be
made the most of by the bulls, so that an
excessive rise will probably be the sequel
The fall of nearly three per cent in govern
ment securities in as many days took the
public by surprise, and as this depression was
promoted entirely by artificial causes cor
responding reaction doubtless awaits the
market, our national securities being the
cheapest and safest investments in the country
at the present time. The rapid decline in Erie
from 20 to A is almost inexplicable on any
other theory than that the present directors of
the company have been guilty OF gross mis-
management or perversion Of trust. The
transfer books were closed yesterday prepara-
tory to the annual election on the 18th of Oc-
tober, without any notice whatever to the
public, although the usual time for so doing is
thirty days from the date of the election.
The object sought to be secured is, of course,
the reelection of the present board, the
directors, owing to recent transfers made in
their interest, having a majority of the stock
standing in their names. A charter which
permits such an arbitrary act as this calls for
speedy amendment Moreover, the directors
in question are said to have bought the four
lines of steamers from this port towards Bos-
ton, in addition to having leased the Boston
and Providence Railroad. No wonder that
Wall street is in fever of excitement; but
the signs are that the crisis has been reached,
and strangely enough, there have been no
failures, Notwithstanding the enormous losses
which have fallen upon the speculative houses
during the last three weeks.

The Heroic Defence of Paraguay.

We have been accustomed to receive various
reports concerning the Paraguayan war from
Rio Janeiro, and of course they all bore the
stamp Of Brazilian partially. Consequently
the utter run-either present or Immediate
of the gallant Lopez, one of the greatest heroes
and patriots Of his age, was repeatedly an
nounced, Intelligence coming from an inte-
rested source is not generally very reliable, 80
that the stories of the success of the allies of
Brazil did not always carry weight with them.
But the news which we published and adverted
to yesterday, although coming from the same
source, admits that the foolish allies had been
repulsed at two important points of the Para
guayan defences-Fort Humaita and the Gran
Chaco-by the valiant leader of the Paraguay
patriots. 1t seems, then, that Lopez, so far
from being nearly annhilated, has won
glorions victory, and Is likely to keep imperial
Brazil and her stupid republican allies at bay.
There never was a war on the South Ameri-
can Continent more just nor more character
lied by valor, persistency and good general
ship than this contest for nationality which
Paraguay is waging. The marvel is that the
other republics should be found in alliance
with Brazil. They do not see that Lopez is
fighting their battle for republicanism all this
time. They do not appear to understand that
if the cause of Marshal Lopez and Paraguay
goes down they must all inevitably 60 with it.
If Imperialism and its allies triumph the allies
will be the worst sufferers. We cannot but
sympathize with Lopez and rejoice at his sue
cesses as republican nation ourselves but
we fear that public sentiment in the South
American States is demoralized, as it is in
Mexico, and hence the common sense of the
allied republics Is as blind, though not so strong,
as Samson. Like the foolish virgins, the re-
publican States allied against a neighboring
republic are going into darkness and danger
without oil in their lamps. Their last serious
defeat may have taught them wisdom. 1t
may not be too late yet to learn that the al
lance is on the wrong side. Meantime we
must accord to the gallant Paraguayans every
merit for their valor and moral courage.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1868-08-21

Indiana and illinois, 1t was o democratic
State in the old days, but went with the repub-
licans on new issues. Can republicanism
count on the continued support of people that
keeps its eyes open for new issues-that can
separate itself from party as it sees occasion,
and never permits party to outlive its crimes
against humanity?
Five Southern States are included in the
Grant list; but we need scarcely say that
that is founding Grants chances on very
shaky foundation.
OF the one hundred and ffty-nine votes
above estimated as nearly certain for Grant it
is quite safe to say that at least one hundred
are equally likely to go for Seymour.

THE REDEMPTION OF THE GRRRNBAoKs.--If
we redeem the 6ve-twenties in greenbacks,
shall we not still have to pay in coin, dollar
for dollar, on every greenback? Yes; but the
interest will be saved; and here is the strong
point Of Pendleton, Butler and Old Thad
Stevens. In the interest alone the sum of the
principal of the British national debt has been
paid, perhaps twice over, but it still remains

SACRED OBLreATIoNs.-The redemption of
the national debt incurred in the late war for

adopted what was the loss to the country?
That Is matter worth considering.

The New French LOan-HOw the Finances
Are Managed In France and the United
States.
We noticed the other day the surprising state
ment made by the Paris M0niteur that thirty
four times the amount of the new French loan
asked for had been offered to the government
1t seemed almost incredible, and we were dis
posed at first to think some mistake had been
made in the figures, though we were well
aware of the confidence of the French people
in their government and the popularity of its
loans. But in referring back to former loans
we see the astonishing success of them, and
should not be surprised if the subscription to
the present one had reached the enormous
amount mentioned
By way of Illustration we give the war loans
of France in 1854 and 1856. The amount is
given in dollars SO that it may be better
understood by the American reader. There
were three loans, namely =

high-handed assumptions, the blunders and
follies and probabilities and corruptions of
the radicals of Congress that the people, for
the sake of decisive change, may prefer
Seymour to Grant, and thus the greatest
soldier of the day may again be beaten right
