New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1871-11-14

The Han ''on Ohio Telegraph, from which we de-
rived the important information yesterday furnished
concerning the proof of ballot-box stufing by the
Democrats against Gen. Schenck, at the last cleo
tion expresses with some confidence the opinion
that the result Of the disclosures now made must be
to deprive Col Campbell of the seat to which he Is
shown to have been fraudulently returned 1t
seems to rs that the result ought to be something
more than this. If Mr.. Peter Schwab is guilty OF
the crimes hat seem to be proved against him, his
wealth nnd unaccountable political influence should
not avail lin against the stripes Of the Ohio peniten'
tiary. Watcher Col. Campbell should be ousted
and Gen. Schonck recalled from England to repre-
sent the district he has long honored, is matter
of far less consequence than whether the crime of
tampcrnt with the purity Of elections is to be con-
doncd in district so intelligent and influential as
that wherein it would seem it has been so hagrsntly
committed.

err L1TE TNDTSTRJdL FAIR.

The intensity Of our recent political contest
prrc'udcd that full development Of the novel
ties aud merits of this years Annual Fair OF
the American Institute that we usually accord.
Now that the Election is over and its results
illly a>c,ltaincd, we propose merely to men
ton few of the inventions first exhibited
this year which seem to us Of decided merit
and promise.
The Young America Harvester Conferred by f.
p Markham, ButlalO) is the first attempt within
our knowledge to perfect at one operation the
harvesting of small grains. 1t is impclled by
four hcrscs, attended By two men, and cuts,
thIa>hcS. winnOws, and sacks a breadth OF
s"vcn or eight feet az fast as those horses can
walk With a change of teams, we judge That
it might harvest twenty acres per day. We
ate not s,lrc that some Of the grain would not
need second winnOwing; but the cutting
and tlrc>hing seemed to us absolutely perfect
no human hand touching at any time the
straw. which is, left evenly distributed over
the ground. We cannot doubt that this ma
chine will prove a great success on the vast
whcat-feds of the Northwest, where human
labor in harvest time is so scarce and dear.
THO simple machinery whereby sand is
bo7n by steam against amy surface or
rock, or metal, or glass, which it cuts rap
idly and dclicatrly after any presented pat
tern, appeared to Us valuable in its present
uses but far more important in view OF H.
prOspcctivc applications. As yet, it easily and
rapidly abladcs. cngravrs, and pol'hcS; by
and-by, it will tunnel mountains and sink
Artcsian wells. We have seldom seen an i'll
vcntion whereof the possibilities appeared so
bOundlcs'.
Youngs Diamond Gang Saw for cutting
Marble we Judged far more efficient than any
predecessor Still, we may not be acquainted
with the best of its precursors.
The new Saw O'oynton'al from Michigan
did great execution and won general applause.
A new Combination Printing Press Camp
bell ~ cvinced rare ingenuity and promised sig
nal efficiency.
A new Sewing Machine Uathrop'S), machine
for making Brushes (vcry simple and effectively,
and Warnings Air compressor Remarkably ell
cicnt in drilling but capable of much wider
appication), we judged worthy of more praise
than we have found time to give them.
There was no positively new Steam Engine,
and the Baxter exhibited last Year, seemed
equal to any rival within our knowledge. We
regret to say that none of the rivals which
have threatened the empire of Steam put in
an appearance save one poor little Electric
Engine which drove tiny toy wagon. Wo
barely glanced at it, since it seemed but re-
production of the Cook & Davenport machine
of days lang syne-not 80 forcible as the best
of Pages. How much longer must we wait
for Electricity to impel drills, and plOws, and
riilrars as il impcls all animate and inanimate
Naturp7
On the whole the striking novelties exhib-
tied at this Fair were few; but its general
makeup was admirable, and the public-at
first cold and shy-crowded the spacious Rink
and its adjuncts bounteously toward and at
the last,

Further information concerning the Ku-KluS
Klan derived from the records of the United
States Courts, is given in our special CORE
spondcnce from South Carolina. The details
of the long list of crimes committed by the
Ku-Klux runians would, if published, astonish
the world but the easy-going people of South
Carolina, whose notions concerning the right
of colorcd people to live arc very loose, seem
to have regarded the business as merely bit

DOWS WITH THE ERIE ROBBERS.

At last the Infamous Erie Ring ia on the
eve of disastrous ruin. We hope we are at
the end of long suit which promises full
exposure of Erie's systcmatizcd fraud fragrant
robbery of shareholders, bribery of legislators,
and corruption of judges and lawyers. The
Erie Ring has been almost as bold and
injurious to the community as Tammany; and
its managers and their adhercnts are worthy
the same punishment that threatens Tweed
Judge Brady yesterday granted, without hest
tation. an order to Eric's lawyers to show
cause why the last stay of proceedings by
Judge Pratt should not be vacated. Judge
Pratt, in the interest of the Ring, rescindcd
his own order referring the case OF Fisk
against Stokes (Which is virtually that of
Jay Gould against Miss Mansfield, who holds
the letters compromising him and othcrs), to
New-York as soon as it was discovered that
the suit came before judge whom Erie has
never purchased. The order issued yesterday
brings up for hearing to-day the right OF
Judge Pratt to recall his references. In spite

4 CHARTER FOB OUR CITY

| We have no faith in parchment as panacea
| for political ills, The best charter ever framed
will not save US from misgOvernment and
| pr0fligate expenditure, unless our more fOrtu-
! nate citizens are willing TO do their part
| toward nominating and electing fit legislators
| and rulerS-not spasmOdcally, but persistently.
| If we are to go to sleep over our new Charter
when we get one, then we might better do
without it. Let us begin with clear under
standing that there can be no efficient substi-
tute for a patriotic and general interest in
public affairs and then we shall be ready to
enter upon the work of framing Charter for
our City.
There seems to be very general agreement
that the officers elected by popular vote should
be few. Elect Mayor and Board of Aldermen
1--WE realize no need of assistant Aldermen
or a second Board of any kind) devolve
on the Mayor and Aldermen the duties
of Supervisors, and give the appointment Of
Controller, Chamberlain, Corporation Counsel,
Police and Civil Justices, &C., &C., to the
Mayor alone OF to the Mayor and Aldermen if
you will; let each newly elected Mayor be
authorized to select and change his own subOr-
dinates, holding him responsible for their
official conduct and we shall have better as
we'll as cheaper machinery than this City has
enjoyed or endured for the Last forty years.
In the choice of Aldermen, we urge that fair
play be given to the principle of Complete
Representation. Let the City be fairly divided
into seven Aldermanic districts, each entitled
to three Aldermen; let every voter be author
lied to vote for three Aldermen, or to vote
thrice for one Alderman, or twice for one and
once for another:
thus: or huS: Or b,St
John Williams. John willama. John Wndimt.
John Williams, John Williams, Thomas smith.
John Williams; Thomas Smith, Peter Jones.
and let the votes be counted exactly az they
are cast-three for Williams, two for Williams
and one for Smith, or one each for Williams
Smith and Jones, and return made accordingly.
Under this plan, the party polling less than
half but not less than a quarter of the votes
in any district could elect one of the three
Aldermen; so that there would always be
respectable minority in tho Board 30 long as
there was considerable minority of the voters
opposed to the party or interest in power. This
would of itself go some way toward giving US
ADLER and better Boards than we have recently
swtltered under. And then, provision that
no new place should be created no salary or
emOlument increased, but by unanimous vote,
duly recorded, of the Aldermen, approved by
the Mayor, would be sure of its proper effect
The suggestion that Republican Legisla-
tllre will seek to secure some party advantage
from tho new Charter is absurd. Give us
elections by votes legally cast and honestly
counted, with rulers who will not steal, and
the Republicans ask no more.

Food for Fattening. Horses.

Many good horses devour large quantities
Of grain and hay, and still continue thin
and poor; the food eaten is not properly
assimulated. If the usual feed has been
unground grain and hay, nothing but a
change will effect any desirable alteration
in the appearance of the animals. In case
oilmeal cannot be obtained readily, mingle
bushel of haxseed with bushel of barley,
one of oats and another of Indian corn, and
let it be ground into fine meal. This will
be fair proportion for all his feed. Or the
meal, or the barley, oats and corn, in equal
quantities, may first be procured and one
fourth part of the oil-cake mingled with it,
when the meal is sprinkled on cut feed
Feed two or three qnarts of the mixture
two Or three times daily, mingled with a
peck of cut hay or straw. If the horse
will eat that greedly, let the quantity be
gradually increased, until he will eat four
and six quarts every feeding, three times a
day. But avoid the practice af allowing
horse to stand at a rack well filled with
hay. In order to fatten horse that has
run down in flesh, the groom should be very
particular to feed the animal no more than
he will eat up clean, and lick the manger
for more.

Hints to Housewives.

Perhaps some of our hous excepting read
pedients i'll domestic management that
have somehow crept into our practlce'
Brooms are so generally used and abused,
that their freshness worn off they are too
soon discarded. When broom begins to
succumb to wear and tear, place it in n
pan of boiling water for few seconds
shaking it well, and drying it quickly in
the sun or at the fire. If the bottom edge
is wearing uuevenly, tie string around
it until it is dry, and trim off the uneven
edge carefully. Whisk brooms should be
treated in the same way.
Clothes pins boiled few moments and
quickly dried, once or twice a month, be-
come more flexible aud durable. Clothes
lines will last longer and keep in better
order for wash day service if occasinolly
treated in the same way.
We have discovered first-rate home
made cement for filling up cracks in an
an old stove or range. The ingredients are
wood ashes and salt reduce to soft paste
with cold water, and fill the cracks when
the stove or range is cool. The cement
will soon become perfectly hard. We keep
an iron spoon in an old tin pan on hand,
ready for duty whenever crack appears.
Fire clay obtained at the stove dealers)
will sometimes answer, but our homemade
cement is always at command.

another crib of slabs, and fill up and pack
hard with sawdust all around, and SO go
on until you get up six or eight feet then
put foot and a half of sawdust ON top
over this put shed roof of slabs, one end
of slabs nearly to the ice, raising the other
three feet. II ice is all that is wanted, il
will keep in this manner as well as in a
vanished house.

WeerlIs nnd Other Barn Insects.

A writer gives the following method for
destroying wevils and other barn insects,
which he has thoroughly tested by exper-
ience, and las the merit of being cheap
and convenient;
at is simply to sweep and clean out the
granaiy, and then wash it all over on the
the inside with strong pickle of common
salt This drives out all sorts of insects
and worms, penetrates the timbers of the
barn, and kills the worms which are so
apt to get in them and cut them-and
preserves the timber in wonderful man
ner. After this process is repeated for
several times the timbers of the barn be-
come saturated with the salt, and will last
for one hundred years. The pickle should
be carried up and thrown upon the toist
and sides of the barn, until the whole is
thoroughly wet"
