chance the party had TO carry the country. AZ
the commencement OF this canvass there we're
two courses open to the Democrats. There was
a positive popular distrust OF the radical party
and clear desire on the part of the people to
go a little nearer to the Dsmocraoy, II the
Democracy would only come little nearer to
the people-that is, IL it would abandon its
hostility to what had been done by the people
in the war, and 60 with them In future.
The visible signs by which the Democrats
might indicate their disposition to do this were
even recognized by every one. First they
had to make the fourteenth amendment the
main point in their PLATFORM and next to
nominate as their candidate for President a
man in whom the people had confidence as
one who had believed in the war. Had they
accepted this course, and thus, by a sublime
piece of tact put behind them the issues Of the
war-those towers of strength for the party
that was on the right side--they might have
fought the campaign out to good result; for
they would have had clear field to thunder
on the issue of party corruption. With the
war issues put aside, the blunders of radi-
oalism aud its oorruptions, that had awakened
the reaction of 1867, would have over
wbelmed il.
The other course open to the Democracy was
to be coDsistent-we might say to be honest,
if such a word as honesty had any application
to the case-to stick to its text-that old
formula of 1864, which declared the war to be
failure and gigantic injustice. By taking
this course the Democracy would commit itself
to reactionary policy, and while it would
command the intense admiration of its extreme
admirers would rally all its force around its
strongest idea, in Democratic sense; 1t would
drive into the arms of the Republicans all men
whose heads were clear as to our recent his
tory. II was put on this course by the ex-
treme men in the Convention who manWuvered
the nomination of Seymour, and who repre-
sented the element that had opposed the Gov
ernment during the war. Bullied or cheated
into compliance by these men, the Democracy
may now see in the verdict from Maine that
the people look upon it as merely fighting the
lost cause over again, and are as resolutely
determined that it shall not win as they were
when the arena OF that cause was the field of
battle.

Democracy Jubilant.

From the ". Y. Commercial Advertiser
The Maine election has apparently carried
Joy TO both parties. If we are to believe the
World this morning the Unterrifed are even
more happy than the Republicans over the
returns from that State. The following are
some of its head lines chronicling the Ma ne
news:-"A Great Democratic Victory-Demo-
cratic Gain of Fourteen Thousand-Rej joicings
of the Democracy" ''The Republican Ma
jority ROt more than Is 900, and Probably
Less" "Democratic Gain over Republican
Majority of 1860, 9661.' democratic Gain
over Republican Majority of 1864, 3076."
And our contemporary closes an editorial on
the election in this wiser
"AlI honor, then, to the sturdy Democrats OF
the Pine Tree state. Tney have fought q good
fight. and have shown what pluck, energy, and
persistence can accomplish In the face OF appa-
renuy insurmountsble obstacles. They de-
serve, and will receive the thanks of their
fellow Democrats throughout the entire coun.
iTy."
Now, if the World regards Republican
majority of "only eighteen thousand,' an in
crease OF seven thousand over last year, ga
great Democratic victory" we would ask, in
the name OF common sense, what it would
style Democratic defeat?
But our Democratic cotemporary ought to
know better than TO suppose that it can impose
upon its readers with such stuff as this. They
picked up their paper this morning expecting
to find that the Republican majority in Maine
had been materially decreased instead of being
increased to the extent of nine thousand. The
World has been deluding them into this belief.
On the 7th instant it said to them with an air
of supreme confdence:-
THAT the approaching election will reduce
the majority 10 some dVe thousf nd is, we
think, as certain as the election day comes

ing at q discount, Il is a sure evidence that his
credit Is mot good. II thai discount constantly
increases until IL is deubIe, It is a sure evil
dence that those who understand his Affairs
think them badly mismanaged. The wender-
ful things which MIR. Atkinson pretends the
Republican party has done, are utterly incon-
sistent with the doubling of the premium on
gold since 1865. This great sinking of the
public credit being an incontestible fact, the
pretenses we have referred to are of course a
baseless fiction, and an insult to public intel
liRence.

From the ~ Y. Herald.
Although the Democrats could scarcely have
hoped to carry Maine, they labored hard for
the moral effect of reduction in the Repub-
lican majority; but the decision is SO posi-
lively against them that they must be very
wiliully blind if they can find any comfort In
it. Maine indicates that popular instinct has
taken the full measure of the Democracy
Democratic principles and purposes have been
Judged, not by the guarded phrases OF careful
party writers, nor by the nice negations of the
party platform, but by such uttsrances as
that spontaneous aud thoroughly genuine out
burst with which Wade Hampton gloried on
his return from the nominating convention to
his home in South Carolina. Such utterances
were felt to be sincere by the people who
iealously watched every act of the returning
SouthernersE; denial only deepened their
effect by keeping attention fixed upon them,
and the nation has determined that Seymour
is only put in the front of the party as Il dis

and desperately to the views of Hampton,

The sums which have been paid into the
Treasury since the close of the war would
seem fabulous and Incredible If they were not
attested by official evidence which renders
doubt impossible and denial absurd. The

amount of our public revenue since the close

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.-.4 Remarkable
dse.-About half past six o'clock on Sunday
evening lest, during the heavy storm which
was then prevailing, Mrs. Mary Jane Ferri-
gan, living at Bancroft's Upper Bank, while
walking beneath poplar tree near her resi-
dence, was stricken down by q flash of Light
ming which struck the top of the tree and
shivered it from the topmost branch to the
butt A portion Of the electric Discharge
struck MRS. reIIigan On the top of the head,
passed completely round the neck, and down
the right side to the knee, producing terri
BILE liberation of the scalp, and burning her
body in dreadful manner. The cut on her
head was clean to the bone and an inch and
three quarters long, and her hair was all
burned to crisp. She had on a new dress,
which was completely shredded by the course
of the electricity. A boy sitting in door
way near the tree, saw the lightning strike
it, and nearly all the limbs fall tothe ground.
When Mrs. f. was first picked up, she was
purple in color, and remained unconscious fer
an hour, but blood being drawn she was re-
stored to consciousness The attending phys
icains, Drs. Dickson and Rowland, at first
regarded her injuries as fatal, but now report
her condition as very favorable under the
circumstances When struck she had child
with her, that was knocked down. but not in

Thursday night about ten o'clock, an accident
occ FRED On tie ,fenasylvanial railroad al
Parksblrg. wirci resulted in the instant
death Of Mir Augustus Phelan, engineer ON tie
third iist ii eight vest. The deceased backed
his train on t',e so''th track at Parkesburg.
to await the arrival If the Cincinnati Express
passenger train, took the cushion from his
engine, placed II across the north track and
laid down Upon it. At the time, the conduc-
tor reminded him that the Cincinnati Express
would be along in a few minutes, and that
there was danger of his going to sleep and
being killed, Phelan remark cd that he would
not go to sleep, and remained in his recum-
bent position with his head ON one rail and
feet on the other 1t seems, however, that he
did sleep, and a terrible death was the result.
The engineer of the Cincinnati Express train
Noticed Phelan on the track, and Immediately
sounded the signal down brakes" but the
momentum of the train was SO great that it
could not.be checked until the engine and
eleven cars passed over his body, which was
terribly mangled. Mr.. Phelan was one of
the Oldest engineers on the road, married
man, and leaves wife and four children at
Columbia. No blame attaches to tile EN-.
