Cheering.

The Missouri Republican says cheering ac-
counts reach it from all quarters in regard to
the success of the Seymour and Blair ticket.
1t says:
''Everywhere it appears to be felt that unless
Radicalism is defeated in the present Presiden-
tial contest, there will never be another Presi-
Dental election, but that the Republic will have
been lost forever and given over to military
domination. The purpose of the people is evil
IDENTIFY deep and resolute to step forward in this
crisis and literally save the country. Hundreds
of changes have already come to our own knowl-
edge among those who have been heretofore act
ing with the Republican party supposing it to
be a loyal, an honest and decent party, but who
have become disguised with its false pretences,
its corruption its recklessness and it's profigacy.
The detection in the Republican or Radical
ranks is really amazing and it is fast becoming
route and panic"
The correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
writes to that paper on the 18th instant as fol-
lows, regarding politics in New York:
''The only noteworthy incident in politics to-
day is remarkable editorial in the Sun, of this
morning, coming to the conclusion, after care
full survey of the field, that '.the cause of the
Republicans, in this State, is simply hopeless, -
and that 1.-The Democracy must carry New York
in spite of everything" The significance of this
declaration is in the fact that the Sun is warm
partisan of the Republican candidates."

Serious Riot in Texas.

GALVESTON, July Ion the evening of
the 18th, riot commenced at Millican, on the
Central Railroad. A mob of about twenty five
negroes, led by white school teacher and ne
gro preacher, named Brooks, attempted to hang
man named VIM. Holiday, but white citizens
prevented the execution, and. headed by the
sheriff and bureau agent, attempted to suppress
the mob, which resulted in the death of ten OF
twelve negroes. On the 10th the number in
creased on both Sides and skirmishing occurred
during the day The casualties estimated at
twenty-five. A small body of troops arrived
late last night and dispersed the rioters, killing
three negroes. The latter, numbering three to
five hundred, had fortified themselves three miles
from Millcan, and refused to lay down their
arms till the troops dispersed them. The entire
loss is fifty or sixty. The difficulty arose from
the suspicion that negro member of the Loyal
League had been hung, but who has been found.

Thad Stevens Right for Once.

Thad Stevens made speech in Congress on
Friday, ON the payment of five twenty bonds in
gold, in the course of which he said:
"What was that law? That the interest
should be paid up to certain time at per cent
in COIN After the bonds fell due they would
be in money, just as the gentleman from Illinois
(Ross) understood it; just as he (N1r Stevens)
understood it; just as all understood it when
the law was enacted; just as it was explained
ON the floor dozen times by the Chairman
of the Committee of Ways and Means. If
he knew that any party in the country would
go for paying in coin that which was payable
in money, thus enhancing the debt one-half :;
if he knew there was such a platform and
such a determination on the part Of his own par
ty, he would, with Frank Blair and all, vote for
the other party. He would vote for no such
swindle on the tax payers Of the country. He
would vote for no such speculation in favor of
the large bondholders and millionaires He re-
peated (though it was hard to say it, that even
if Frank Blair stood on the platform of paying
! according to the contract and if the Republican
candidate stood on the platform Of paying bloated
SPECTATORS twice the amount agreed to be paid
