COTToH-The market is stih too unsettled to
offer any data for special remark. Sales to-day
amounted 10 only $50 bales, at irregular figures,
and il is yet impossible to obtain even closely
approximating quotations. The offering supply
continues exceedingly light. and the actual
demand cannot be regarded as better than nomi-
nal. Advices from other markets are very con-
fctng and we cannot look for a full return to
previous active movements for several days
hence.

PHILADELPHIA, October 81. "A
petition contesiing the election of
Daniel Fox as Mayor has been fled
In the Common Pleas Court. 1t re-
ports that the true vote of the city
was So 779 for Tyndale and 81 900 FOR

PHILADELPHIA, October BLK
Secretary Stanton was received this
evening at the Academy of Music by
an immense audience. His address
was bitter review of Governor Sey
mour's late speech. He said Gov
ernor Seymour had gone over Presi-
dent Johnson's track for the purpose
of making the people believe he was
right and the Repub blican party wrong.
That Governor Seymour had three
speeches to suit different localities; !;
one for the Ohio farmers on the high
prices of -four and grain; the second
in Pittsburg to the WorkiRgmen,
about the high rates of taxes. and
the third to the Berks County Demo-
Gratis on the vast expenses incurred
during the war. He continued on
in the same vein at great length. The
rain interfered with the projected
demonstration outside of the Acad-
emy.
PHILADELPHIA, November lin
the course of Mr.. Stanton's speech
last night, he said the War Depart
ment bought, hired. or begged the
use of vessels and transports for
troops. aud it Is the glory and honor
OF the business men of the country
that they refused not to lend every
assistance in their power to further
these efforts. Mr.. Seymour, in his
speeches, however, has brought re-
proach upon this glory and honor,
upon the merchants of Philadelphia
who aided the war for the suppression
of the rebellion. This denunciation
of war expenditures and the extrsva-
gance of the Republican party makes
the constant burden of Mr.. Seymour's.

Mr.. SeymOur's Record.

We give up much of our space this
morning to an .epit0me of the record
made by HoRATIo SEYMOUR, Demo
cratic candidate for President, during
the most eventful period In the his
tory of the country. We urge every
Republican to read it carefully today.
and from it learn the necessity of
doing double t0Ork MORROW, to
prevent his precinct, his county aad
his State, from indOrsing that record.
During the war the city of Evans
vile, the county of Vanderburgh and
the State of Indiana, were all famous
for their fidelity to the flag, and their
zeal in defense Of the Government.
Why should they now east a reproach
upon their past conduct by voting for
a man who did SO much to defeat
them then, aud the-aDoble cause for
which they contended and triumphed.
We submit Mr.. SEYMoUR's record
TO the calm aud dispassionate good
sense of every voter. If, after reading
it, any of them remain of the
opinion that he is worthy of eleva
tion to the head of tie Government
he sousht to destroy, let them vote for
-him5 and may-fhey,- TO the fullest -ex-
tent, enjoy the harvest of sorrow and
shame the casting of such ballot is
certain to produce. 1

firms him Ia possession.

pubiicaas.

The organ of the Vanderburgh De
mocracy has disgusted its own party
adherents, and disgraced our city BY
its mendacious attacks upon Hon
SCHUYLER CoLFAx during the past
few days There is no man In America
who has more friends among his
political oppoGents than Mr. CoLFAx,
and none more highly respected by
them than he. For twenty years he
has been. in public life, and during
the past eight years one of the most
prominent men of the nation, andAyet
be has been signally free from re
proach, malice or SANDER. He is
known to be one of the most KIND
and genial of men, and his private
life is without blemish.
Coming to the city as he did at the
urgent request of gentlemen repre-
senting q majority of our most-intel-
ligent and respectable citizens, his
public position, his services to his
country, and the excellence of his
private character demanded that he
should have respectful hearing and
decent treatment al the hands of his
political opponents And we are glad
to say that such was the case, and that
hundreds of Democrats attended his
reception, and very many were glad
to give him personal welcome. But
we blush for the credit of our city
when we remember that there are. in
Evansville men 50 lost to all regard
for truth and decency as those who
wrote aud published the villainous
lies and silly ISLANDERS upon Mr.. Col
FAX, which have appeared in the
Courier tie past three days. Its ac-
counts ofshis reception and speeches
10 this city are the most willful per-
versions Of the facts, and are such
shamefaced falsehoods that they an
sVer Themselves aud convict their au-
thOrs Of downright lying. And the
reports have been followed up by edi-
torial comments equally as disgraceful
and false. But it can hardly surprise
any one who knows the reputation of
the men who edit that sheet-rebel
soldiers and stupid and unknown ad-
venturers, without character them
selves aud utterly regardless of the
reputatiOn Of others.
