Electoral

Necessary to choice. .1S4
Now, as it takes one hundred and eighty
four electoral votes to elect the President,
where-lookng at the results of these recent
elections-where are we to find these one hun
dred and eighty-four electoral votes for Mr..
Greeley? We cannot find them in the list of
probabilities But in March last it was sup
posed by many political prophets that the pro-
jected coalition of the anti-Grant republicans
and democrats would carry everything before
it; that it would give them in the East the
States Of New Hampshire, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania in the
West, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Michi-
gan, Oregon and California, and all the South
srn States excepting only South Carolina. In
deed, few days after the adoption of Greeley
and Brown as the democratic ticket by the
Baltimore Convention Mr.. Gratz Brown him
sef, in public speech at New Haven, de-
clared that he believed there would be such
an uprising of the people for change
In the national administration that
General Grant would probably be cut
down to the electoral vote of only three or
four States. But this inspiring calculation of
Mr.. Brown in regard to the South was spoiled
by the August election of North Carolina, and
in reference to the East it signaly failed in the
Vermont and Maine elections of September,
while, touching the public pulse of the whole
North, embracing the East and the West, this
extravagant calculation of Mr.. Brown, with
the October elections Of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana and Nebraska, collapsed and fell to
pieces.
OF course, then, if we cannot within the
range of probabilities bring Greeley and
Brown within gunshot Of the White House,
the result of this next Tuesdays Presidential
election must be the election of Grant and Viii
son. In 1868 General Grant was given the
rate Of twenty-six States, or all the States,
excepting Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Maryland, New York, New Jersey
and Oregon, which voted for Seymour,
and excepting Mississippi, Texas and Virginia,
not then sufficiently reconstructed to vote as
States in full communion. Now, if from the
list of States which voted for Grant in 1868
we must take Missouri, Arkansas, Alabama
and Tennessee, in 1872, and add with these
Virginia and Texas to the Greeley column, it
is probable that on the 5th instant New York,
New Jersey, Louisiana, Mississippi and Ore
gon will vote for Grant, and that accordingly
his electoral majority in 1872 over Greeley will
be much larger than his majority Of 1868 over
Seymour.
Assuming that such are the prospects Of
this impending national election, the question
presents itself, Why this signal failure of the
new opposition alliance? The answer may be
given in the recapitulation of numerous
causes, but it will suffice for the present to
say, as the comprehensive reason for this op-
position failure, that the American people do
not yet believe that the time has come for an
other revolution in the administration of our
national affairs.

INTERVIEW WITH DIR. WATSON.

The extensive raLge that the religicO-
s~piritualistic discussion has taken re-
Gently led our city editor to look up as
many facts upon the matter as he could
possibly find out. There being also a
general discussion all over town upon
the attitude of DR.. Watson in reference
to the Memphis Conference and to his
book, The Clock Struck one, lent the
subject a popular interest which could
not be overlooked by those whose duty
it is 20 not only give, but to ferret out,
the news. 1t was this consideration
that led the city editor of the APPEAL
to seek an interview with DIR. Watson.
He went out to 229 Union street, the
residence Of the Doctor, at five O'Clock
yesterday evening. The Doctor was out
at the time, 50 the editor left his card
and subsequently sent the following
note:
MEMPHIS, December 5, 1872.
DEAR SIR would be glad to have a
communication from you in relation to
your views on SpirituaIism, particularly
with reference to the subject matter Of
the discussions that have appeared in
the papers. 1 called at your house this
afternoon for the purpose of interview
ing, but found you were out. Yours,
respectfully, JOHN MULROY,
City Editor Appeal.
To this the Doctor replied in this Ian
gauge:
at has not been my intention to pub
lish anything upon the subject, but /
find the public mind has received a
wrong impression in regard to what has
occurred, and now l think l will review
the reviewers, notice the action Of the
Conference (which l heartily approve),
and set myself right before this cOmmu-
nifty"
This was not deemed satisfactory, and
an interview was obtained anyhow, and
a long conversation had with the Doc
tor. He was quite pleasant and very
agreeable and communicative, express
ing his cheerful willingness to impart
any information that he possessed with
regard to Methodism or S~piritualism.
His S~piritualism, in justice to him we
are bound to state, is hot what is COM
monty denominated Spiritism, but a
Christian belief in spirits, which he
holds 70 be in accordance with the
| Scriptures, and also in accordance with
the views of Wesley and Clarke, the
great opponents of the teachings of the
Methodist Church. We called his at
tention to the Associated Press dispatch
sent from Memphis in reference to his
alleged r-ecantation; it is as follows:
"MEMPHIs, November 80, 1872.
"The Rev. Samuel Watson having
been found guilty Of writing a heretical
book, entitled The Clock Struck One,
by the Methodist Conference of the
Methodist Church, said book being IN
defense of Spiritualism, and containing
numerous letters p~urportiDg to be from
former residents Of this city long since
deceased. DIR. Watson made full apoI-
ogy, and agreed to withdraw the book
from sale as far as possible
He said that done him great injustice.
It was not true. He was not found gull
ty. He wa not tried by the Conference.
He believed the Conference held the
views that he did in reference to the
doctrine of spirits. 1t was the same
doctrine that Wesley taught. He, in
fact, drew largely from Wesley's writ
ing when getting up his bOok-The

Turning Things 90 Accounts In the Coed
Ola Dead-Beas Fashion.

Captain Athy had occasion yesterday
to come ia contact with a smooth
sharper, the counterpart of pious Theo-
philus Murphy, who was plying his lit
tie vagabondish business about the city
fer gain. He was armed with a multi
plieity Of small instruments, such as
thimble-rigging, rouge ct n05T on a new
plan, trick O the loop, cards and con-
fidence apparatus. In a neat box
he had a few score of envelopes,
each containing a card, three-fourths
of them blank and the others numbered.
His game was simple. Having estab-
lished himself in a convenient and safe
quarter, surrounded by sffiush'' simple
tons, he spread out an OiI-elOth eighteen
inches square, numbered and figured to
suit himself. One dollar was the charge
for a chance to draw from the box, and
Il q lucky number came out the drawer
got from twOto sixty dollars. His thim-
ble-rigging apparatus was complete,
made up of nut-shells-now you see it,
and now yOudOn't sect. Captain Athy
asked the sleek individual the uses Of
these things, and was answered that
they We're epizOOtic cures, and proceeded
to explain the nature and effect Of the
figures on the cloth, and the effect of
the half nut-shells when moved in a GER
tain deXtroUs manner. One system Of
moves, known only to the operator, was
good for the epizOotie, another for the
whooping-cough, another for smallpox
and 50 on. He felt very indignant when
the Chief of Police said the property was
eonfiscated and that the learned con-
juror and physician should leave town.
He threatened to carry the Ease into
court, and clustered about f~earfuliY.
He simmered down, however, when the
possibility of the stationhouse was hint
ed, and promised to leave the city atten
this morning.
