RORERT Z. LEE.

The death of Gen. Lee will give occasion at
the South for marked display of public grief.
1t will be without significance, and may not,
perhaps, be thought wholly appropriate; never
theless it will be a demonstration in many re-
spects remarkable. 1t is much to be doubted
if any other Government than that of the
United States would permit, or any other peO-
pie than our own would cOuntenance, the
open expressions of regret which will
be made over the loss of man
who had become prominent in a
great conspiracy to destroy the Government
and divide the people. But not only will the
public meetings, the official resolutions, the
public parades in which the Southern people
viii express their sOrrow be officially ignored,
but loyal people will respect their grief. The
best loved leader of the South, Lee was not
absolutely without honor and even affection
in the North; while hot tears flow for him
there q sympathy, not unallied to pity, will
be felt for him here.
Time has sulIiced to give both North and
South better idea of the personal character
of this man. It was difficult for us in the heat
of the war fever to understand how it was
possible that a man could be traitor to his
country and yet strictly honest toward his
fellow men. 1t is still something of mystery,
but none will refuse to admit that socially
Gen. Lee was above Teproach. Though guilty
of weak and wicked acts, it cannot be shown
that he ever did mean thing and it was his
misfortune that he was less firm of purpose than
by nature generous and yielding. His pOpu-
larity was based on these attributes; and
uniform successes in his defensive operations
during the first years of the war won him
such confidence of his troops as his repeated
blunders and failures in his offensive cam
paigns could not shake. This confidence re-
manned so strongly with him to the end of
the war that with his fall at Appomattox the
Cause he had defended fell forever.
Now that he is gone, let us endeavor to for
get his folly and his great crime, remember
ing only that he was aOt wholly bad. False
political principles rather than false morals
perverted his mind and wrought his ruin, as
they wrought that of his party To forget is
the greatest charity we could now extend him.
Yet III the history Of his country he must live
not indeed as the ablest of her sons who
sought her overthrow, but as in many re-
spects the least odious and the most promi-
ueRt;-as a General great only in de-
fensiye.6assive operations, but there nm.
eoualed tbfOaghout the war on either
side as a ,Soi1er stainless on every
roiut save that on Yhith Soldiers honor
should be the brightest, he u,,,iuse for which
he drew his sword. 1t is a great an,, pathetic

1t is most singular that we have overlooked
the holding Of the Democratic City and County
Conventions which we presume have never
theless been held, as we ind the streets OPP
pressed with banners bearing devices which
would otherwise be strange. All are headed
Regular Tammany Nominations" and are
inscribed with the names of divers persons
for sundry offices heretofore supposed 10 be in
the gift of the people But Tammany claims
that its nominations are equivalent to election;
and as these have apparently been made with
out popular intervention, we can't exactly see
how the people have anything TO do with
choosing their rulers in this satrapy of Tweed
and Fisk ir
New-York tribune., 1870-10-13
NOW FOR NEW YORK!

A few plain words may as well be said to
the men who use Republican place for the ser
vice of the Tammany Ring. They were badly
beaten at the last meeting of the General
Committee. Since then Mr.. Tweed has come
home in alarm and issued his orders; and
already these Tammany Republicans are busy
as beavers trying to carry them ont.
Above all things, urges Mr.. Tweed, the Re-
publicans must be forced to make strict party
nominations. To this end sufficient number
of members of the General Committee must
be bOught; and the Tammany Republicans are
already at work trying to do 1t. What
we wish them to understand is that this
game has been played for the last time Men
cannot longer use the offices of Tammany to
purchase action in Republican Committees
without exposure. Whoever does this thing now
must make up his mind to so straight to his
own place, with Tmnmany branded across his
forehead.
We mean to have an honest election in this
city, and we mean to carry the State. Ycster-
day the result might have been thought un-
certain to-day, after the results Of the OctO-
Der elections, nothing but the apathy of our
own people can defeat us. The servants of
Messrs. Tweed & Co., nOminally in our ranks
cannot. Every man Of them is marked; theiI
! bargains and manipulations are all noted; and
| they will be met at every turn. Mr.. Tweed
| expressed his surprise that his man Smith hat
not controlled the Republican Committee a
the last meeting; we mean to surprise hin
still more at the next and to give the Ring
| further cause for the alarm that is al
| reodv making them degDerate. For ono,
we mean to have an honest election, to manage
our own Committees and Conventions. yithou
! the aid of Tammany; and to put Tamman!
Republicans where they belong. If they doub
it, just let them try. We promise them de
gree of daylight on their operations they have
not yet dreamed of.

In addition TO these sums, THE TRIBUNE
paid its proportion of the cost of news
received through the Associated Press for the
seven members in common. The payments
were of course made in gold, but these sums
represent the currency cost. The heaviest bill
on any one day for Gable tolls alone has been
GS18 1Os., gold, or over $4,000, gold. The
Herald has used nearly all our special
dispatches, and has promptly paid its
proportion of the Cable tolls only The
World has used a few Of them, paying
promptly its proportion Of the Gable tolls
only; The Times has used few of the
dispatches, but has paid nothing; and The
Sun has used several, paying for some of
them, but refusing to pay for others-one of
them being the Graveotte dispatch, which it
falsely claimed as belonging to it on the
pretense that it had paid its proportion of its
cost The Herald paid us, for its proportion
of tolls, $15,157 43, currency, and The World
and Sun, together, Sj,728 G2-maldng S2OeSC o.
received from other papers.
The case then stands thus: TIE TRIBUNE
for weeks, and even months, furnished to its
associates and to the press Of the country the
only special and full news obtained 10y tele-
graph concerning the most gigantic civil and
military convulsion of, modern times 1t put
its own special correspondents into the
field, selected by itself, sent to the
proper points by itself, furnished with
civil and military facilities secured for them
by itself, paid exclusively by itself, acting
solely under its direction, responsible solely to
and even known solely by itself. The benefit
of the news thus obtained, at q cost OF $780,
Os9 A, was reaped by the other papers OF the
Association on their returning to us S2OSS6 o.
of our outlay, and by the press of the
entire country outside of New-York
without any cost to them whatever
in the first instance the whole S5G,OS9 A was
advanced and risked by THE TRIBUNE
Now it seems good TO our associates in New
York to attempt imposing upon the public
the claim that they had equal interest in,
equal expense in, and equal honor for this
collection and transmission
Of news with ourselves. We are content

pRUssIAy OCCUPATION or ORLEANS.

PRUSSIAN OCCUPATION or ORLEANS.
After two days fighting of serious char
acter the Prussans have driven the French
army from the line Of the River Loire and
have occupied the important city of Orleans.
The battle which began at 8 o'clock on the
morning of the 10th at Artenay appears TO
have been surprise of the French, which
resulted in their complete defeat. They wore
overpowered and driven into the suburbs of
Artenay, where at o'clock on the
same afternoon the Prussans again at
tackled. OF the latter engagement
we have no details, but it is known that the
French abandoned their second position TO
retire upon Orleans. Ilithcr at an early hour
on the 4th inst. the Prussians followed, and
bombardment of the town ensucd. Their right
wing advanced at the same time to Beaugency
and Meung, southwest Of Orleans and between
it and Tours, whence recnforcements under
Garibaldi were expected. But the hanking
operations of the Prussians threatening to pre-
vent the junction of the French forces, Orleans
was evacuated. The defeated army took up
position on the south bank Of the Loire, and
here the two forces confronted each other
yesterday morning.
There is nothing in the news or in the move
ments thus far made to indicate whether or
not the Prussians design further operations
now in this direction. The present news leaves
the impression that, though their victory was
signal, the Prussans have not fully succeeded
in their design of preventing the concentra-
ton of the French Army Of the Loire. If
they contemplate further aggressive operations
against this line, this failure places them at a
disadvantage. If their future purpose is to
defend this line, and thus protect the rear and
the lines of communication Of the main army
at Paris, their success was all they could ex-
pcCt At any rate the operation is of minor
importance and can little affect the present
situation about Paris, where, Of course, interest
centers, and where the fate of France is TO be
decided.
There are reports Of another sortie from
Paris on the 7th inst, but they come in such
doubtful form that we cannot wholly credit
them. They represent that the PuSsians have
been driven from their commanding positions
west of the city, and forced back upon Yer
sailles. It is stated that The messenger bring
ing the intelligence was permitted to pass
through the Pi1lssian lines. This, of course,
will at once throw doubt on the truth OF the
story.

Our returns of Tuesdays elections are still
far from complete. Those from Pennsylvania
do not materially change the appearance of
previous accounts. There is doubt as to sew
eral districts-the 9th, 18th, 10th, and 21st 1t
seems probable that we have lost at least one
the 21st. Our State ticket III Ohio is
elected by about $1,000 majority, and
we have lost two, possibly three, and
gained two Members of Congress.
The Indiana State ticket is in doubt, with the
chances in favor of the Republicans by small
majority; and we have lost one Member of
Congress, and possibly two. The Legislature
is in doubt. From Iowa our returns are
meager, but the Republican majority is esti-
mated at 10000.

Tbcro seems TO be no end to the dishonest
+ricl,s of Tammany, and we are not surprised
TO learn that Oakley Hall has contrived way
10 turn out the Republican Inspectors OF Elec-
ton which he went through the farce OF ap-
pointing last Spring, and to fill their places
with his own retainers. A review of the new
State laws relating to elections in this city,
printed elsewhere exposes our model Mayors
latest fraud, and drags out to the light the
two strings of the bow with which Tweed,
Sweeny and Hall propose to slaughter every
honest officer whom the Republicans send to
the polls. Fortunately there is higher

corruptionists," and the honest voters OF New
York mean to have an honest election next

If the Young Democrats mean business, they
should show smartness enough to keep Fer
mando Wood from capturing their own Con-
'ventions. The other night they were on the
point of nominating Gen. Hillyer for Congress,
when it was suddenly discovered that wood
had bought up their delegates, and this anti
'Tammany organization actually nominated the
Tammany candidate. This is a touch beyond
lthe capacity of even Tammany Republicans

New-York tribune., 1870-10-13

Oakley Hall being authorized by law to
divide the City into election districts, provided
he did it on or before Sept. 10, issued a
proclamation on that day dividing the City
into three hundred and eighty-seven districts.
He accompanied it by an attack on Marshal
Sharpe, alleging that the Marshal was taking
the census in such manner as TO disiranchlse
voters. Mr. Hall in that proclamation left an
entire block of the Seventeenth Ward out OF
anyelcction district, thus virtually DISTINGUISHING
some four or five hundred voters. This prOca-
nation was printed in pamphlet and delivered
from the Mayors Office in that form. 1t was
also placarded about the City. But in making
up the new election maps this blInder was
discovered and Oakley quietly proceeds so TO
change the boundaries of one of his districts
as to take in the omitted block, and "Docu-
"ment No. 81 of the Common Council Is issued,
in which the altered boundaries are inserted
without note in the proclamation dated Sept.
10. OF course Oakley had no right to change
his original proclamation or-to make new
one. But altering official records is mild
exercise Of power for the Ring. 1t is true that
this is form of forgery; but when did the
Ring stop at this, or at anything
New-York tribune., 1870-10-13

Now that Mr.. James Fisk, jr., and Mr.. VIII
liam NJ. Tweed have passed a resolution of
confidence in the Erie Directory, and Mr..
Nathaniel Sands has testified his appreciation
of the services of the ex-Secretary of the Citi
zens' Association, and certain newspapers be-
longing to the Associated Press have solemnly
resolved that they are pleased with their own
behavior, it only remains for the Tammany
Ring to make a public expression of satisfac-
tion with the career of Mayor Hall.
