MEETING TIE SITUATTON.

Nothing could exceed the CHEEKY courage
with which both Liberal Republicans and
Democrats meet the changed aspects Of the
canvass which the October elections have
wrought. The meeting of the Democratic
National Committee, yesterday, breathed only
the spirit of determination and confidence. Mr..
SchelIs ringing address, on behalf of that
Committee, which we have already published,
was more than backed up by the declarations
of well nigh every one of its members and
they separated only to hasten home to
renew their work, and hasten their oIgani-
cations for the impending conflict.
PENNSYLVANIA and Indiana simultaneously send
out words of cheer; and in Indiana at least
our friends have no reason to doubt that,
with vigorous work, they can hold all they
have gained, and improve upon it.
From the other States which we have
reason TO believe we can carry, comes
ennal announcement. We may be beaten in
November; but if so, it will be, not because
there is not strength enough to win, but be-
cause we do not use our strength.
Meantime as the facts come out about the
wav in which the Grant triumph in Pennsyl-
vania was won, it becomes more and more
evident that it is impossible to extend the same
means of coercing one State over the whole
thirty-seven. There are not Simon Camerons
enough, with brothers-in-law in all important
towns like Lancaster to bribe election judges
to stuff ballOt-boxes; Dor are even the ample
funds of the Grant Ring sufficient to
warrant the investment of sums of
$500 or $500 in each election judge
whom they may thus seek to buy. It viii
always be possible, perhaps for adroit and
unscruDulOus men with enormous re-

POLITICAL RIOTS.

When any party procession Is passing peace
fully through the street. those who, from some
dark alley, throw stones into its ranks or
otherwise assail it, are morally guilty of pro-
voking the murderOus affray that often ensues.
Even to stand on the sidewalk and cheer for
the candidate of the opposite party is not in
good taste. You should do nothing calculated
to provoke breach of the peace, even though
your action does not justify it,
The following telegram appeared in all the
Associated journals yesterday:
CINCINNATI Oct. 13COYington had riot last night.
Republican procession consisting half of whites and
half of coored men, was marching along the street,
vhen as one story says boy ballooed for Greeley
negro said, "shoot him." and commenced firing
Another story is that the negroes fred IN tho air. and
another that they fred into the crowd OF bysandors
Although many shots were fred, was hit with
bulles but a number were struck with torches. The
doors and windows of two stores were broken in.
The NelC- York Times entities this Another
"nnocent Greeley Crowd in COvington, KY"
Is that fair and justf Is it calculated to
prevent future breaches of the peace7 The
fact is, that there is generally blame on both
sides in an affray like that in COvington, and
the journals should endeavor to allay animos-
tiles, not incite them.
New-York tribune., 1872-10-15

and spoke OF the widosproad corruption and demora
izaton that had ensuod from this Erie Ring, and tho
balefu effects upon the morals Of the community OF the

II had brought stigma upon tho Commonwealth that
every member this Assembly representing its honor

such injustice TO the people living the southern tier OF
counties as believe that they thoroughly understood
this question they would send petitions hero asking Tor
the continuance in power OF this Infamous Ring"
That was vigorous assault upon notOrl-
ous scandal What would have been thought
of it if men had known then, as they know
now, that Speaker Smith had been paid for
making 1t What would have been thought
if it had been known that the Attorney-Gen-
eral of the State paid fee to the Speaker Iof
the Assembly to promote legislation against
CRYING evil 7 And what would have been
thought if we had understood that the
Speaker insisted upon a law not in the inter
ests of the stockholders at large, but for the
benefit of the particular clique OF stock
holders from whom he had taken $500 7 For
Mr.. Smith was not only an advocate OF the
repeal of the Classification bill, but he spoke
earnestly against the amendment excluding
directors of the Atlantic and Great Western
Railway from the dictatorship of the Erie
Company, an amendment which of course was
aimed directly at his clients. "That amend
'"ment,n writes Mr.. Hale to Gen. Sckles, " was
"the only unfortunate thing about it, and
" that we did hest to prevent, and to got
"Out after it was in."
Thus far we have. heard nothing from tho
gentlemen implicated in this very disagree
able story. Until some explanation is offered,
we can only believe that the AttOrney-General
and the Speaker of the Assembly have been
concerned together in business which differs
little if at all from bribery.
