GHOA1E.

1t is little more than a year since that re-
spectacle body of seventy citizens, popularity
known as the Septuagint, was organized at
the great reform meeting in this city. 1t
promised to set everything right that had
ever gone wrong; to give US u new charter
to break up the immOralities of the caucus
system; to prevent the nomination of bad
men; and to put stop to stealing. When
tho excitement and hurrahing of the campaign
had died away it was found that the achieve
ments of the Septuagint amounted to just two !;
they had sent Mr.. James O'Brien to the Sem
ate and they had given us Choate. The cleo
tiOn of Mr.. 0'Brien was certainly not thing
to be proud of, but o great many respect
able people have clung to the hope that
ChOate at least was boon. If he
has never done anything particularly wise,
and if an immense majority of his fellow
citizens do not know exactly who lie is, it is
at any rate great comfort in these perplex-
ing times to have a cock-sure person of this
ssrt, who will tell us just which way to walk
and just which candidates ought to be voted for.
Here we have John Thomas putting up can
didates on purpose to be beaten, and black
guarding the very men whom his party means
TO vote for. Here we have Apollo Hall shout
ing for Grant, and the CUSTOM house support
ing Ring Democrat for Mayor. Here we
have Mr.. George William Curtis throwing
mud at Mr.. Hank Smith" at the very time
when Mr.. Hank Smith is lending his coun-
tenance to the Administration, and assessing
policemen so apiece for the benefit of Grant
and Wilson Here we have all sorts of re-
formers making all sorts of corrupt bargains
With any rogue who viii help them in beating
Mr. Greeley. la such a chaos comes Joseph Ii.

FOR PRESIDENT


We ask those who are accustomed to read
and trust TIE TRIBUNE to vote to-day for
Horace Greeley for President of the United
States
Because he is the best man for the place.
He is incomparably abler, better informed,
safer than his antagonist.
Because his election would mean reconcilia-
ton with the South, an end of the war, re-
vival of Southern industry increased markets
for Northern products, homogeneous cOun-
try, with consequent safety and prosperity.
Because his election would mean reform at
the NOrth-an end of Government patron
age in elections, an end of administering the
Civil Service, not to do the Government work
but to defeat one party and help anOther-an
investigation of the cOrruptiOns which have
seemed to pervadc all branches of the National
Government, and have made the rule at
Washington as much worse than Tweed's rule,
as its scope was wider and its power more re-
sistless.
Because his election would mean an end of
carpet-bag governments at the South, propped
up by Washington interference for yet longer
robbery of already bankrupt communities
Because, in word, it would secure those
great ends of Reunion and Reform for which
the Cincinnati movement was begun, and the
triumph of which, whether to-day hastened or
DELAYED, is as sure to come as the Republic is
fo endure

II will be decided to-day whether a Pres-
dent of the United States can purchase re-
election. 1t is safe to say that without the
Federal patronage, without direct appeal to
the pocket-books of citizens, without an
enormous expenditure, Grant would this day
be without the ghost of a chance. We have
never had party canyassing in so mercenary
d manner before; and may we never have
such an exhibition of debasine appeals again |!
Be the result to-day what it may, the Lib
eral party will survive, and we shall not again
have the scandal of an Administration doing
exactly as it pleases, with no opposition to
keep il sweet and decent.

FOR Observation-Disclosures s.


If there were no other reason for going to
the polls to-day, the pleasure of voting for
Mr.. Samuel s. Cox against Mr.. Lyman IRE
main would be q sufficient inducement. He is a
man of deep convictions, unsullied character,
brilliant abilities, and distinguished record.
He was an unhinching War Democrat, the
Congressman whom Mr. Seward credited with
greater share of the glory resulting from
the passage of the Constitutional Amendment
abolishing Slavery than that accruing to any
other man. He is a thorough parlamentarian,
a keen and ready debater, full Of intelligence
and resource. He knows Congress as well as
his own library, and has never been tainted
with the suspicion of job. He is one of the
most valuable representatives whom any con-
stituency could select to transact its business
and guard its interests in Washington.
His opponent is an ofiice-seeker pure and
simple. He has no profound convictions on any
subject He was Southern sympathizer before
the war began, and has vacillated backward
and forward ever since "a the chances of office
frightened or faded. He was making up his
mind to join the Liberal movement when the
Custom house party, whom he had publicly
denounced as dishonest and incapable, offered
him this nomination, which he promptly ac-
cepted. He has no experience in public af-
fairs. IL he were sent TO Washington it would
fake him the rest of his life to learn what
Mr. Cox already knows, and when he had
learned it he would make no such effective
use of Il as the eloquent and quick -witted
metropolitan member
A first-rate State like New York should be
represented by fiIst-rate man. Lyman Ire
main does not ill this requirement. and SAM
uel S. Cox does. Vote for him and you will
never be ashamed of the Member at Large

LOUISIANA POINTS THE WAY.


Louisiana leads of in the Presidential cleo
ton. that State having the right, by Act of
Congress, to vote this year on the first Monday
in November. Right nObly has Louisiana
aounded the note for to-day's onset it is q
bugle blast at the head Of the column of
Southern States. Look at the inspirit-
ing returns: TWENTY THOUSAND ma
jority for Greeley and Brown The
whole Liberal State ticket elected -Four
out Of six COngressmen chosen New
Orleans gives twelve thousand majority for
the Liberal candidates. This is the way in
which prosecuted State, vexed by Presiden-
tial brothers-in-law and torn by dissensiOns
which the perpetual Federal interference has
stimulated, gives voice to the protest of the
South against tyranny, corruption, and NAL
administration. OF course the Associated
Press dispatch gives also the preposterous
claim of the CustOm-house, that it had a
majority on the registration and must have
the same IN the vote. Gov. Warmoth's opinion
furnished by the Associated Press corresponds
With that given in our own dispatches; and il
il not Gov. Warmoth's habit to be Snistakeu
about Louisiana.

called dismissal for being honest and eff

The horse distemper has so far disappeared
from this city that the streets have not only
regained their wonted activity, but are unusu-
ally crowded. Business, brought to partial
stand-still by the epidemic. seems making up
for lost time. Outside the State the disease
has reached as far south as Virginia, and ex-
tended westward beyond the Lakes. But it
is curiOus, as well as encouraging. TO note
that the decrease of the disorder follows like
wave hard after the rim which is extending
over the country.

Democratic leaders have of late been de-
ploring delnQuencies of their own people in the
present canvass. 1t is peculiarly pleasant,
therefore to be able to say that there has been
no failure in their National Committee. The
Hon. Augustus Schell has conducted its affairs
with great discretion and ability; has done
much valuable work for which he has received
no credit, and will be fairly entitled to con-
gratulatiOn on any gSod news which tO-night's
dispatches may bring. He has also been most
ably seconded by Gov. TheO. +. Randolph of
New-Jersey; while the State Committee, under
Messrs. Tilden and Beach, has likewise been
earnest and efficient.

IN the thirty counties of Western New York,
Liberal Republicansm early found cOngenial
soil and growth. Before the Cincinnati move
ment had gained shape, the progressive men
of the Republican party formed very large
element of dissatisfaction with the existing
order of things. How these men have been
by turns fattered and threatened is told by a
correspondent of THE TRIBUNE whose letter
is elsewhere printed to-day. This sturdy band
have stood by their guns; if the Liberal Dem
ocrats will do as well, the State is all right
for the Cincinnati nominees.

Nothing could prevent the Seventy from making
themselves ridiculous in this canvass that was in
eVitable. Tagging suporfinOus on the stage where
for moment they had played a useful part, not
knowing how to get off gracefully and not willing
to retire out of sight they could not expect to escape
the merriment of the audience. But We own We
have been surprised at seeing them adopt the worst
and meauest tactics of that Tammany Ring whose
ghost is now their only stock in trade They hayo
printed and were distributing everywhere yester-
day two tickets purportng to be the Republican and
the Democratic. While the former gives the Grant
State ticket and the latter the Liberal both contain
the names of the Grant candidates for ths
municipal and judicial offices TO be filled
at this election. We would like to know
how many of the members of that Committee
are aware of this piece Of old-fashioned political
rascality, and how many. If confronted with It,
would deny and denOunce it, as in the of the

A SAUcy MALE BoY."-Apropos of
an announcement in the Lumpkin Inde-
pendent, that it suspended publication
for week in order that all hands might
enjoy the Fourth and the Spann hanging
in Webster County, the Columbus En-

One johnson Hooper edited the Eds.

or four centuries ago. in the early recol-
lection of the editor of the Enquirer.
The mail boy who brought the news Fri
day afternoons was always tardy until
an opportune hanging brought him in
time once. Hooper was 80 tickled that
he wrote an article. hoping that negro
or mail rider would De hung every Fri
day. The mail boy thus neatly replied:
''MR. HUPpER-SRR: Yu think yu done

PARIS AND TIE FASHION RULERs.-The
Empress Eugene, as leader OF the ia
shions OF France and of the civilized
world, has been severely blamed for in
Producing extravagance in dress, furni-
ture and equipages, and the heavy ex-
penses necessary to keep up appearances
at court have been assigned as the cause
OF the general Generalization Of French
society, which ended in the downfall of
the empire. But Eugene is now in exile
at Chiseihurst, England, and her most
precious jewels and ornaments are ex-
posed for sale at the hands Of a London
auctioneer, in order to raise the means to
support herself, her husband and her
young SON. Whatever may have been
the poor exiled woman's faults in the
past, she certainly is not to blame for
what is going on in Paris society at the
present time. Eighteen months since,
she was the Conserved of all observers"
in the capital Of the world. Notvith-
standing Eugenie's absence, and in spite
OF the horrible memories of the siege
and the reign OF the Commune, tue
naodistes of Paris are now sending out
dresses and bonnets much more extrava.
CANT IN faahion, and much more expen-
sive in cost, than were ever seen in the
days of the empire. Worth, the famous
man-milliner Of Paris, is credited with
this revival, and his gorgeous conoep-
tons of female dresses are all the rage in
French society, and form the subjects of
ecstatlc newspaper articles.

An old writer has quantity said: "God
Looks not at the oration OF our prayers,
how elo1uent they are; not at their ge-
ometry, how long they are; nor at their
logic, how methodioal they are; but he
looks at their sincerity how spiritual
they are."
