To the EdflOr Of the Tribune
SIR: 1t seems to me that the following are fair
and pertinent questions for voters TO consider:
ls Why do the great OF nurderers, house-burn-
ers burglars thieves robbers gamblers, rumselers rum
drinkers drunkards shouderhters prize-nghters, ana
persons OF this stamp hail from the Democratic Partyt
I'd. Why do the great of lrishmen-especaly tbo
Catholic portion-unite with the Democratic Partyf
Sd Why do the Catholic priests, with scarcely an eS-
cepton throw their influence In favor OF the Democratic
Partyf .
4h WHY does Il happen that the mass OF the more in
telgent moral, and especially religious portion Oh Vho
community, is found In the Republican Partyf -, n.
bth And WHY Ia II that so Oredf majority OF the Prot
estaut clergymen is found siding with the Republican
Partyf -, .....
9th In short how does happen that so great propq
ton OF the ldtcleSs part OF the community II ~ a

mass of the awabidng found In the ranks OF inc OPo

The Cape Cod GAZETTE tells about the
fishiest story we have heard for long
time. It says that during the tempest
of last Thursday lightning struck the
water of Waquoit Bay, which so affected
the eels that they came to the top Of the
water, their heads out like sea serpents,
and swan to the shore. On being taken
and thrown back into the water, they
Immediately come ashore again. The
following morning some fifteen bar
rels Of eels were picked up on the beach.

Horrible Triple Assassination.


BY special dispatch from Crawfords-
vile we have the following particulars
of most horrible triple assassination.
The dispatch says:
s'The citizens Of Charlottesville have
been very much shocked by the receipt
of letter from Carthage, Missouri, con-
tanning the distressing intelligence that
three former citizens of this place, Mr..
Israel Patton, his SON and nephew,
Mr. Nelson Moore, were recently assas-
sinated near Carthage. It seems that
they had been missing several days, and
search was made for them, which re-
suited in finding their bodies hung to
tree, with their throats cut, evidently
having been left in that condition for
several days. Mr.. Patton lived within
few miles of Charlottesville for num-
ber of years, and possessed an excel
lent moral character. His son served
in the army creditably, and was in many
respects a most worthy man. Mr.. Moore,
the nephew, was remarkably quiet, never
saying word to give offense to anyone.

RESIGNATION.

The golden links of love lay
Their tw ming lengths around these hearts Of clay.
Are hsrd to sever, when they join
The hearts of those who have been strangers born.
But whom no add to what before was strong,
The tie of uature-that unyelding thong
Who then may tear apart the hearts so bound
Nor leave than bleeding from . cureless wound
There's One who may, nay often does display
His goodness thus but then tits to say
How hard! when innocence from love IS torn

A New Discovery

A French chemist has found way to
illuminate the interior of people. he
lowers lantern into their stomachs, and
then standing on the outside, I'VE are
assured he does not descend with the
lantern he can see distinctly the whole
inside workings of the human form di-
vine. It is said to be very pleasant
experiment for the patient. We doubt
very much, however, whether it Gao ever
be brought into general practice. Few
persons are willing to let others know
now they live. 1t is said to be so easy
of application that the patient need not
know when it is being done. Wives
might be glad to adopt it and thereby
be able to know where the husband
spends his evenings. Trix would ten
be of no use as breath disguiser, for
while he is quietly sleeping, down would
go the lantern, the contents of the
stomach be readily seen, and the supper
of oysters and champaign could not he
concealed. If this should be extensive
ly adopted in the family, husbands will
be obliged to have themselves iron clad

Frightful Earthquake---Thirty Two
Thousand Lives Lost.
Destruction Of Property, 500 .ooo, 900.
HAVANA, September IL.

HAVANA, september IL.
Advices have been reeeiyed here an
nouncing that Peru and Ecuador have
been visitedwith ttlemost terrible earth
uuakes ever known. The shocks occur
red on the 18th Of August, and lasted
only five minutes. In that short time
25 900 persons perished, and 80, 600 were
made houseless. The sea rose forty
feet, and swept the coast with irresisti-
BILE fury. The cities Of Arequipa. Inqui
que, Tehala and Chucha, have been ut
terly destroyed. The loss Of property
between Tacana and AFRICA is estimated
at GA, 900, ,O00,aS The United States stea-
mer Kearsarge was rendering assistance
to the sufferers.
New YORK, September l3.
Letters from Lima Peru, give ad,
ditional details of the earthquake and
it's effects. The earthquake commenced
at half-past five on the 18th OF August,
extending from Bolivia to the Southern
parts of Chilli, on the coast and over
one hundred miles inland. The towns
and cities mentioned in the dispatches
of last night, were literally ruined, as
oil buildings which were not destroyed
were so badly damaged as to require
their demolition for prudential reasons.l
All the public edifices in africa were de-
stroyed, including the Custom House,
which contained more than four million
dollars worth of goods all of which are
lost. ia
The loss Of the Fredonia and the Wa
teree are described as follows: ..They
we're both at anchor in the harbor of
africa, near each other. After the first
shock on land, which created great con-
sternation on both vessels, DR.. Dubois,
Surgeon, and the Paymaster of the Ere
donia, took boat and went on shore to
INQUIRE for the welfare Of friends and
offer the services Of the ship. In few
moments after leaving the vessel, o
great upheaving of the waters of the
Bay commenced, and the Fredonia,
parting her chains, was dashed about at
the mercy of the sea and finally dashed
TO pieces on reef. Nothing OF the yes
sci was saved. Her officers and crew
81 in number-were lost; also Mrs.
Dyer, wife of the Lieutenant command
ing. The officers names are Lieutenant
b Dyer and d. Organ; Master, J. G.
Cromwell Purser, S. Lunt, Secretary
to the SCommanier. The vessel had
nearly two million dollars worth of naval
stores on board. All totally lost.
The Wateree was more securely an
chored, but dragged her anchors, and
the great tidal wave swept her 45O yards
inlantl, about two miles north of the
ruined town. She now lies between two
hillocks Of sand, very slightly injured
and it will be utterly impossible to ex-
tricate her.. !, -~~-~ --~~ <-v
Admiral Turner is only topefnf d
saving her battery and stores. Only
one sailor was washed overheard and
drowned. Lieutenant johnson, of the
Wateree was ashore at the time, and
while carrying his wife in hfs arms tc
some place Of safety, she was struck by

Till earth returns to earth
So live that men shall mark the time
Gave such a mortal birth.

TIE Democratic platform in demand
ing equal taxation upon every species
Of property, according to the real value
including Government bonds and other
securities" does not propose to reduce
the present lax upon the banks and the
bondholders. 1t proposes to make "the
tax equal upon every species of proper
ty," and that the owners of the 500 900
of property on the Switzerland county
tax duplicate for S743 10, mentioned in
Tuesdays issue, and used now to illus
trate, shall pay the same amount as is
paid by the owners of the S1O0,OOV,
the capital of the National Bank. BY
the Democr attic method Of equalizing
taxes the owners of the 500. 600 on the
tax duplicate would have to pay, in ad-
dition to the sum OF S743 10, the enor-
nous sum of SO, ,966 80 to be equal to
the tax paid by the bank. This will be
the result Of the Democratic plan of
equalizing taxation-the plowholders to
pay as much as the bondholders, and
the bondholder to pay as much as the
owholder.-Madison Courier.
