OUR CONGRESSMAN ELECT.

| OUh CONGRESSMAN ELECT.
The election of JOHN AMBLBR SMITH
from this Congressional District is a
triumph of which the Republicans may
well be proud. His competitor, George
d. Wise, was entirely confident, as were
his political friends, of his success in the
District, and claimed that he would 60 out
of Richmond with from five hundred to one
thousand majority. The result shows that
he sadly mistook the popular sentiment in
the city. as well as his. own popularity as
weighed against that of John Amber
Smith. 1t is true that no personal unpop-
ularity of his own has weighed him down
in the fight, but he has simply sunk be-
meath the most disastrous tidal wave I"
that ever swept over Virginia.
The result also shows that even many
persons in u W party mistook the per-
sonal popularity of Jul candidate. He
runs considerably ahead of the Presiden-
tial ticket in this city, as we'll as through
out the district. 1t was impossible that
this result should have been achieved, ex-
cept as strong personal claims pressed in
his favor. Hundreds of young men in the
city rallied enthusiastically to his support
and worked with a will for his election. He
also had a strong vote from the mechanics
and white workingmen of Richmond, many
of whom Mr.. Wise might have retained
had he avowed himself q friend of Protec-
ton. We pressed this question upon him
early in the campaign, but the local jour-
mails pooh-poohed it down as a preposterous
issue to be raised at this time, and Mr..
Wise was satisfied to let the question slide.
We happen to know that it lost him many
more votes thar he had any idea was pos
sible under the circumstances. He lost
more votes by holding his mouth on this
question than he gained by all the speeches
he made in the district.
Mr.. Smith is a young man of fine perso-
nal address, of afiable and courteous man
ners, yet commanding in appearance, and
has abilities of a high order. He will be a
popular member of Congress, and his per-
sonal influence will win much more for the
State than even more commanding
abilities without his popular address.
We anticipate q successful Congress
sional career for Mr.. Smith, and no small
advancement to the interests of our city
and State from his election.

THE IRON MARKET.-Mr. Edward
Samuel, of Philadelphia, in his weekly cir
cular of the iron market, reports: "Pig
iron dull, with no large transactions, the
tendency being to lower figures. A general
impression prevails with buyers that the
highest point has been reached, and that
the present depression is merely the fore
runner of a decided decline. This is pro-
duced not only by the dullness here, but
by the reaction in the English market. Old
rails are in little demand, and quotations
may be considered as nominal. Wrought
scrap is dull. In merchant bars, although
the Eastern base price is 6 cents, and the
Western 90 cents per h., some mills that
are short of orders are offering as low as

FRAUD CHARGED IN MANCHESTER.

FRAUD CHARGED IN MANCHESTER.
The Deputy United States Marshal on duty
during the election in Manchester, on yes
terday, states hat on several occasions, to
the best of his belief, two, three or four
Democratic ballots were stuffed into the
box at one time, and as he was forcibly
prevented from witnessing the counting,
has no doubt that they were counted as
legal votes. The city polls about seventeen
hundred votes, we believe, and by the best
calculations should have given Grant and
Wilson $50 majority, and about 200 ma
jority for Smith. As counted out, the
majority for Grant and Wilson is 20, and
16 majority for Wise. We had INDUCED
the hope that the election would be con-
Quoted fairly throughout Virginia. If there
has been any fraud at the Manchester or
any other precinct, justice demands that it
be exposed and the objects sought to be
accomplished by such frauds defeated.

WAR AGAINST HOSTILE INDIANS
The government has recently determined,
without recalling any of its promises to the
Indians, or varying in the least from its
conciliatory course towards the great mass
of them, to hold the recalcitrant and incor-
rightly hostile savages, no matter where
they may be found, to a stricter accounta-
bility, and compel them by the most vigo-
rous military measures, to accept its policy
Of peace. The recent castigations admins
tered to Lo by Crook, Mckenzie, and
others is in pursuance of this determine
ton, and no n need be in the least sur
prised to hear that our troops have struck
further blows against such hostile bands as
persist in repelling the o~vertures of the
government in behalf Of peace Washing

OUR GERMAN VoTERs.-The result of
yesterdays work demonstrates to US that
our German fellow-citizens, notwithstand-
ing the boastings of the Conservatives here
%tofore, and the Wanted existence of a
Conservative German Club, they have si-
lently and quietly turned out and helped to
roll up u handsome majority for Grant,
Wilson and Smith. We have seen a good
many of them actively at work for our
cause Of liberty, freedom, and justice !;
and more particularly are our thanks due
to those of that class of citizens who have
so long labored with us, and who have so
well and nobly withstood the many abuses
to which they have been subjected by the
Conservative roughs, and even by the
press.

large Republican gains have been made !:

AN EPIzooTY AMONG THE DEER
A gentleman who has just returned from
a deer hunt on the frontier, brings news Of
an epidemic prevailing among these animals
which threatens to seriously affect the sup-
ply Of vension. He says that herds were
frequently seen in which there would be
dozens scarcely able to travel, and that
large numbers Of dead and dieing deer were
found in the woods. The disease seems to
resemble in its symptoms the horse disease,
which is now creating SO much trouble in
the East.-&. Paul Press, Oct. 20.

New York Press ESTIMATES of the Result.
Nep York, November 6.-The Herald's
election estimates give to Grant twenty
eight States, and to Greeley eight, or two
hundred and sixty-eight electoral votes for
Grant to ninety for Greeley. The popular
majority for Grant is placed at 800, 900.
The Herald editorially says that whether
the result will be accounted for by
the popular strength of General Grant on
one hand, or the weakness of Greeley and
the feebleness of the Liberal Republicans.
combined with the Democratic vote, on
the other hand, it is in many respects the
most remarkable Presidential election in
the history of the country.
The Tribune gives Grant 1872 electoral
votes, at the lowest, and rs for Greeley,
with the rest doubtful. There is scarcely
q parallel, it says, in the completeness Of
the rout and triumph. 1t argues that Lib
eralIsm could not withstand the
OUTLAWS of money expended by the Repub-
licans in the canvass. General Grant
now has four years more power, with a
heavy Congressional majority, and what.
ever reform he may seek to effect he will
have the aid of the Tfibme.n
The Tribune commenting on the result
says: "The Liberal Republican strength
in North Carolina, Vermont and Maine, was
nearly neutralized by the Democrats who
wouldn't seat crow" when they could get
from So to a25 for not eating it.
The Assembly will now stand Al Demo-
Gratis to 81 Republicans. The Senate is
Republican; holding over from last year.
The World places Grants popular
majority at 300, 1000. 1t says the defeat is
due to the Democracy s~urrendering to
Greeley; that the decentralization conse-
quent upon the New York ring populations
Of a year or two ago, disheartened the party
and caused the nomination at Baltimore;
that the party had not recovered in time
from the Tammany faint to do anything
until too late.
The Times gives 800 electoral votes, and
Greeley only 43, with the balance doubt
full.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER. =
Greeley headquarters surrendered uncon-
.ditionally last night, and unanimously
elected Colonel John w. Jenkins, Repub-
llcan Presidential Elector for the State at
large, permanent chairman. The Colonel
presided with much dignity, and impressed
all present with the belief that the gallant
party to which he belongs had won a mag
niticent victory, which is probably q fact.
The surrender Of the enemy was received
in a becoming spirit of ~magnanimity. This
is what we call true reconciliation, and it
betokens q good feeling between the two
parties in Virginia. At least we hope so.

occasioned considerable excitement for a
time. During the melee, a city magistrate
named Lawton was knocked down, by
whom was not ascertained. Several arrests
were made, but as the evidence brought to
bear upon the case did not locate the re-
sponsibility for the disgraceful proceedings,
the parties were discharged.
