DEMOCRACY-CROWING.

The Republican State and Congressional
tickets have been elected by over q, 900 major
ity- Considering this simple, naked fact,
this growing of the Democratic rooster on
Delaware street bears the appearance of a
farcical, lunatic performance. No. the Dem
ocratic party amt dead vet. But We submit
that it ought to be. There is nothing under
the heavens for it to live for. 1t can do no
good! There is very little harm that it
can do. Yet it is better that it should be
buried. Something alive, vigorous, healthy,
growthy might result from the obsequies of
that worn out almost defunct institution
known now as the Democratic party.
Ofcourse like other dying out, played out
entities, it shows in its later hours, symptoms
of force. 1t has spasms, and upests things.
And yet we haven't the slightest doubt
that the commissions of this wasted, sickly,
paralytic organization received in New York
its main galvanic shock through the direct
instrumentality of the wise Repub-
licans who live in that State
There is nothing for the Democrats to brag
about even in New York State. In control
Of the State, they will emulate their govern
ment Of New York city. Robbery, corrup-
ton, plumber, will be the familiar epithets
defining the conduct of the business of the
State, as they have been the terms interpret
ing the government of the city for years.
That kind of Republican defeats will
prove more disastrous to the Democratic
party, in the marshaling of their forces for
the grand conflict, than any other kind OF
strategy. All they want in these days of
their decentralization and fossilization is to
exhibit themselves. Their open authorita-
tive deeds will secure their summary sepul-
ttlrp

SICK-CMIEF J. CHASE.

A few days ago the telegraph brought ms
the intelligence that Chief Justice Chase was
getting no better very fast, and that he vas
about to resign. The ingenious gentlemen
who write for the public press went at once
hunting all through the crowd Of brieAe~
lawyers thrown overheard b the
whirligig of politics, with nary an oGce, or
knife and fork to help Themselves vith-for
his successor. We shall not name the gen.
llemen mentioned - ''those already thought
Of" because We object to being
party to such sloppy advertise
ments Of small men for great places In the
New York Times of the 9Th, We notice that
Chief Justice Chase is steadily improving
his health, and expects very soon to resume.
the discharge of the duties of his great Office.
We wonder II he is sick at all. He should
write letter and explain himself Itrather
looks as though his political enemies were
trying TO kill him, or 30 disable him that he
cannot be candidate for the next Presi-
dency. A pretty triangular fight it would
be, with Chase bearing above his magnificent
person the Democratic flag, Grant, the colors
of the Republicans and the Union, and B.
Gratz Brown the blood-red standard of the
revolutionists of Missouri, sprinkled with
the far-off stars of the speculative philoso-
piers of St. Louis.
Horace Greeley has been reported as disa-
bled, also, but he vindicates himself almost
daily, by writing and publishing long,
elaborate, and we have no doubt practical
and exhaustive article upon "What / Know
About Farming"
Then, too, he has given the lie to these
newspaper undertakes and executors
by making brilliant race against Sunset
Cox in the Sixth Congressional District of
New York. So long as the old Philosopher
can make the time he did three days ago on
the New York Congressional course against
such speedy nag as Sunset Cox, We shall
not be gulled by any of these yarns about his
being sick.

THE SENATOR.HIP.CLARk.

Sidney amt dead vet, if the advocacy Of
the Bulletin of this city is any evidence OF
his existence. That paper is for Sidney for
the Senate. Thinks he will be elected. The
folks of that print have undoubtedly made a
critical examination of the members elect ia
the Legislature. They have queer outfit OF
spectacles, or whatever else they look At
things with.
There are sixty-four assured anti Clark
members elected.
There are thirty to thirty-five Clark men
elected. We suppose the Bulletin can show
us the arithmetic by which such result as
it is wasting itself for, is to be achieved. We
also note that Sidney has gone to Washing
ton, which is a further indication that he is
to Ike elected United States Senator.
We do not know how we'll Grant loves
him, but We suppose Sidney will use all his
persuasive powers to induce him to take an
interest in thei election. However, the
President can recur to the weighty influence
he welded in Missouri as evidence of what
he NAV do in Kansas.

MUsCorAH, HAS,, Nov. I.
Mr.. JOSEPH SAvAGE-Dedr Sir: As YOU
have taken so deep an interest in the history
Of the early settlement of Kansas, and in the
correct statements of all the facts Of that
history, j beg leave to state to YOU how GER
tain inaccuracies occurred in communica-
ton appearing lately in the New York
Ledger, and taken by many to have been
written by myself. II was in this wise: After
our meeting, on the 10th of September, of
this year, at Lawrence, went Immediately
to New York, and Mr. e. l.. Edwards. of
Lawrence, sent me the Lawrence Journal,
containing good report OF our meeting, and
Of the remarks made by myself and others
on the occasion. That paper also had an
excellent editorial upon the proceedings IF
that meeting While it lay upon my table,
at the st. Nicholas Hotel, and during an
evenings visit by social gentleman, the
paper and speeches were read, and a long
conversation had upon the early settlement
of Lawrence and Kansas.
Among others, reporter for the New
York Ledger was there, and took notes of
that conversation, and afterwards, ~ am
told, wrote them out and made the article as
it appeared in the Ledger. 1t was never sub
mitted to me for examination and Correction.
And, INDEED, Inercr SIR Il until IL appeared,
printed, in the Ledger.
This statement thought due you, as you
have always written of my connection with
the early settlement Of Kansas with ~ much
fairness and accuracy. Although the facts
of that article were all gathered from the
copy OF the paper alluded to above, and my
own conversation of an evenings length,
still there were errors made by the reporter
which could have been corrected ii had
seen the article before its publication. You
are at liberty to make Tie OF this letter in any
way you choose.
With the highest esteem,
am truly &c,
SC. PoMEnoY.
