The Administration.

Senator Trumbull, one Of the ablest
men of the times, and one of the most
independent thinkers, in great
speech he made few days ago at
Springfield, ILL.,, uses tho following
language in relation to President
Grant:
You have as Chief Magistrate OF the ma
tion, a man whose military fame is CO.
extensive with the civilized world, and
whose civil position is above that of any
other man, and yet he is a man Of singular
simplicity of manners, and bears all his
honors without the least display of osten-
tation. A thoroughly honest man himself,
he expects and exacts honesty and fidelity
from those under him who are charged
with the conduct of public affairs. During
his administration the public debt of the
nation has been reduced more than sl7s,-
1900; during the present year taxes have
been reduced SIS 2OO,O OO, and a greater efii-
cheney has been introduced into the reve-
nue. service in all its branches, and you
yourselves know that the country is gem
orally prosperous and progress ing.
have only to say In conclusion, in dew
of the country's history for the past ten
years, and ITS present condition-persevere
in well doing, and so vote in the coming
election as Will be more likely still further
to promote your eountry's prosperity and
mans advancement.
No candid man can deny the cor
rectness of MIR. Trumbull's statements.
It is not claimed by the most enthu-
siastic of General Grants admirers
and political friends that he is per.
fect-never makes mistake, nor COM
mits blunder. They do claim, how
ever, that his administration of the
government is conducted on straight
forward and honest principles. That
ne has inaugurated system of econ
omy and accountability among his
subordinates that has resulted in
largely increasing the revenues and
at the same time largely decreased
the expenses of the Government. Mr..
Niblack, in canvassing this Congress
sional District, frankly admitted this
fact. The truth is, it can not be sue
cessfully controverted. We are conf
dent, also, that the people throughout
the country are becoming convinced
that General Grant has been true to
the pledges given by him when he was
nominated and elected, and we antici-
pate that, when they are called upon
to pronounce judgment upon his ad-
ministration, the verdict will be,
well done, thou good and faithful
servant"

FROM various sources we learn
that the people of North Corolina are
beginning to reap the fruits of electing
the Democratic ticket, and are think
ing that with all its imperfeetions the
Republican party is the best for them.
The Raleigh Standard says:
"The effect of the election is quite differ
emit TO what 1t would have been If the Re-
publicans had carried the State. AS It ia,
there are signs OF a revolution everywhere.
The Constitution is TO be overturned. A
convention is to be called. One hundred
thousand dollars will be spent by the con-
vention. officers in high positions are to
be impeached- Strife and discord viii be
fOmented, and the peace and quiet of the
Sabbath viii be disturbed" It regrets
that after ten years of turmoil, and just az
the people are beginning to hope for quiei
and a chance to work and grow rich, fresh
troubles are brought upon them by party
ambition. The Democrats are warned not
to call a convention If they desire TO re.
tain control of the State. The people are
already alarmed. They fear the abolition
OF the homestead provision, They fear
property qualification for voters and office
holders. They fear they Will be taxed to
pay for slave property. There are many
other things which they are justly alarmed

THE WAR IN EUROPE,
Morning and Afternoon Dispatches.

LONDON, October 27.-Prinee Ma

communication to the London Jour
nails, contradicting the charge recent
~ made by the Nea0s, impunging his
loyalty to the Emperor and Empress.
lie denies having seen either Bour-
baki or Boyer, who came to England
on mission from Bazaine to the EN-
press. He says he repeated person.
ally to the Empress expressions of his
devotion and fidelity.
The. Russians investing Verdun
recently sent communication to the
Mayor OF the town demanding its
surrender. The Mayor Indignantly
refused, inviting the Prussians, If
they thought the town had become an
easy prey, to come forward and take
it. The military situation on the
Loire is unchanged.
The news from Metz is interesting
and important. Rumors had again
been current in the Prussian army in
vesting that city, that Bazaine was
dead, but they are now proven false.
The activity of the garrison had
greatly increased lately, and the
Prussians have been compelled to de-
stroy the bridge at Aus5ur, across the
Moselle, as a precautiOn.
The French make vigorous sorties
wherever they see the slightest oppoI-
tunity for advantage. They have also
re-opened their artillery en- the be-
siegers from the right bank of the
Moselle, whereby the villages of Gu
giry and Coency, which gave the Prus-
SLAMS shelter, have been utterly de-
stroyed.
Among the persons lately arrested
at Versailles by the Prussians was Ls
Sound, formerly Secretary of the
French Legation at Berlin, who de-
livered to the Prussiau Government
the French declaration of war. He
was sent to Mayence.
There is no doubt that the ProVis-
ional Government will soon be obliged
to leave Tours. Arrangements are
now being made for transferring the
National headquarters from the
Clermont Department to Poy de-
Dome.
The Prussians are persevering in
their starvation policy at Paris and
Metz. All fugitives from those cities
are turned back.
The English Government is still
without q reply from the Prussian
authorities TO the request for safe
conduct for Theirs to enter Paris.
England accepts this delay as an in
on the part of Prussia to
grant aR armistice.

Foreign NaWs.

New York, October IA COR
respondent at the headquarters of the
German army writes on the Goth:
The Sa~ ms at AUlnay, Sexeran,
Leviey, ' rtgallant and other points
around the forest of Bondy, are kept
awake night and day. At Chatenay
and Sceoux the Bavarians are nightly
disturbed by shells falling around
them. The besiegers have not vet
replied with a single cannon. No
secret is made of the fact that thew
do not intend to commence until thew
have brought enough of heavy guns
into position to lombard effectuallv.
A number of guns have been brought
up by slow and painful process, hav-
ing been dragged over common roads.
Gunsl off larger calibre cannot be
moved in that way, but must wait IN
til the distractions In the tunnel of
Nantiad have been cleared, and the
bridge over the Marine, at Lagny, has
been rebuilt.
The latter work is nearly complet-
ed, but the former is not. When the
guns are up, nobody here has the
Slightest doubt of the result. Still
the men are getting impatient of de-
lays. 1t is provoking to have friends
picked off one by one and make no
return. The casualties are not great,
yet with the constant firing from the
forts, the number is considerable in a
week. Various reports of the strength
OF the army at Lyons are received
here, but 1t Is not credited that thew
amount to any Importance. and II il
believed 10 can readily be DESTROYED
if desirable. But the Germans are
beginning to fall into the grievous
fault of despising and undertaking an
enemy.

We are gratified to learn that the
Republican Administration designs
enforcing discipline among its pre-
tended adherents in New York City.
A list of the Tammany Republicans
of the New York City General Com
mittee, who have tried to break up.the
party meetings and conventions for the
Rings" benefit. has been received at
Washington, and no man engaged IN
the affair need expect any Office here
after from the Administration. Those
now in office will be dismissed. The
list of names contains both warm ad-
herents and bitter enemies Of Senator
Fenton, and indicates how thoroughly
New York politics are mixed up. The
President and Cabinet will use every
legal means at command against the
corruptions which have caused the
troubles, but believe that there will b
no need to reinforce the civil author

WABASH and RrIa Canal stock.

Prominent among the issues dis
eussed during the recent political
campaign, was the propriety of the
State taking back the Wabash and
Erie Canal, and assuming the pay
ment of the debt for which the Canal
is held in trust, and out of which the
debtors Of the State agreed to make
their money. The Republicans were
outspoken In their hostility to the
scheme, and placed q resolution in
their Platform pledging the party, in
case 1t was successful at the polls, to
pass an amendment to the State Con.
stitution, through the Legislature
which would for ever prevent polit-
ical adventures from fastening upon
the State the immense debt for wh;ch
the Canal is alone liable. by corrupt
ing members of the Legislature. Some
Of the Democratic leader 3 in localities
where the necessities of the party
seemed to require it. also opposed
taking back the canal, but none went
so far as to favor an amendment to
the State Constitution to that effect.
The election IS over. The Repub-
licans have a majority Of one or two
in the Senate, and the Democrats a
majority Of five or six in the House.

expectations Of the holders Of the
Canal stock. with reference to opera
tons in the Legislature during the
winter. We copy it in order that our
readers may be able to keep their
eyes upon the operations Of the con-
spirators:
The following conversation between
a we'll known citizen of Indiana and
dealer in Wabash & Erie Canal
bonds is reported to have occurred not
a thousand miles from New York:
Citizen-"Have you any w. & Il
bonds for sale?"
Broker-"We have some of the
bonds, but for the present do not offer
them for sale"
Citizen What are the current
rates for these bonds?"
Broker-"What are you willing Il
pay?"
Citizen-"Will you take fifty cents
Sixty? Seventy? Eighty?"
Broker-"You can have them a
par and nothing less. The next Leg
islature of Indiana will make provision
for the payment in full with interest.
This bond question was an elemen
of importance in the recent election
and it was openly asserted that tn
success of the Democratic party woul
secure the resumption Of the old cana
debt. amounting to seventeen million
of dollars.
The election is over, and this part
has majority In one branch of til
Legislature and within two votes of
majority Ia the other branch. Tn
plan now is that enough Republica
votes can be secured to carry th
measure through the Legislature, an
thus create an indebtedness of near
twenty millions.
The position Of the Republica
party is so well defined that it is
: part of the present platform to {
amend the State Constitution that til
debt may never be assumed-ar

COMPARE the Figures.

The Democratic papers-the C0u-
rier Of this city especially--are greatly
troubled over General Grants an
nounced intention of enforcing the
Congressional Election Law in New
York city. There is great danger if
the President does so, that some of
the scoundrels, who have heretofore
been engaged in carrying the elections
by fraud, will meet with their just de-
serts. Moreover, if honesty is to be-
come the rule in the elections
in that city, honestymay also
become the rule in the adj
ministration of its affairs. How dis
astrous that would prove to some of
the Democratic leaders in that city
may be ascertained from the follow
ing table. Will our readers compare
the expenses of running this Demo
cratic municipality with the expenses
Of running the Government Of the
United States by President Grant?
After making the comparison, can
they be at loss to account for the
great cry set up by the Democrats of
the country, at the bare possibility of
honest elections in that commercial
