Voters in Cook County must bear in mind that
the real candidates for Governor are Gustavus
Koerner and John l.. Beveridge. The candidacy
Of Oslesby is not for Governor. He is running
for the United States Senate, and E1r. BeTeridge
is the real candidate for Governor, to which
Office he is to succeed upon OglesbyH resigna-
ton. Voters must therefore choose between
Mr.: Koerner and n1r. Bevoridge. One or the
other Of these is to be elected. It depends, it is
now understood, upon the vote of this county,
whether Be7eridge or Koerner shall be the next
Governor. We trust no Liberal will, under the
circumstances, fail to vote OF fail to see that he
votes for Governor Koerner

In the present election the Liberal voters Of
this city and county ahould see to it that no OK
traneous issues divert them from the support Of
their candidates for President, members of Con-
g1ess, State officers, members OF the Legis1a-
ture, and county officers. Success depends
upon unity OF action, and stern refusal to
trade with the opposition. There will be fierce
contest to defeat the Liberal candidates for the
Legislature. There is double reason for this.
The Republicans have promised to elect Oglesby
to the United States Senate, and thereby make
Beseridge Governor. They know that Bayeridge
running directly for Governor would be beaten
10000 in this county but, if they can get ma
jority Of the Legislature, they can make him
Governor BY succession.

THE NEW JERSEY RAILROADS,
Their Lease to tho Pennsylvania Cen-
tEa1 COMPANY Null Hud Xoid.

Their Lease to tho Pennsylvania Ceu-
tFa1 Company Null and Void.
NEW YonK, Oct. 31.-It was alleged in the
Court Of Chancery in Trenton yesterday after
noon that the lease Of the United Railroads Of
New Jersey to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany Was null and void, by the failure Of the
companies to second the agreement. It appears
upon careful Investigation that tho allegation is
true, and that the Pennsylvania Company have
no rights to the property in the State. The news
has caused the greatest excitement wherever
known, since it appears certain that the work
necessary to mako tho lease good will never be
cempleted.:, The administration Of the
passed into 2. tie hands Of the Penn.
sylvania Company has been most
unpopular. Accidents and loss Of life haye
been frequent and the pledges Of the latter cor
poration have been violated: It will be ueces-
Bary, in order to make the lease good, to obtain
over again the consent Of tWo-thirds OF the
stockholders Of each company, many Of whom
are in Europe. This will take months Of tirne
and after the consent is obtained the work of
executing the lease will all be done over the
second time. In the meantime. the opponents
OF the lease, who still have case arainst the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, have gained
new strength, md will use every effort to pre-
vent the second execution Of the lease The re-
cent decision OF the Court Of Chancery in the
matter OF the consolidation OF the New jersey
central and Delaware, Iackawanna g. Western
Railroads, aftrna that unless contract between
public corporations be recorded within thirty
days after signing, the same is null and void.

Should the horse-epidemic visit Chicago with
an approach to the severity now prevailing in
other cities, it must hasten the adoption Of a
better local system Of the transfer Of freights
between railway lines, now done by expensive
street-hau1ing. The measure has been already
contemplated, as sure to result from the present
concentration OF all the lines at the Stock Yards.
By this plan, which once adopted will not be
given up, freight passing through Chicago will
DO transhipped directly from the cars, to the
benefit Of all parties concerned. There is no
city in the United States where this general
transfer is go feasible and easy to be accom-
plished. Ill that is necessary is to hurry up the
great transfer freight-houses long ago pro-
posed. Meanwhile, temporary structures may
be made necessary.

a BAD SCARE,

Some OF the leading Grant newspapers Of the
Weat are becoming seriously alarmed in regard
to the result Of next Tuesdays election in Indi-
ana, Ohio, and Illinois. There have been sew
eral attempts, within the past two or three
weeks to sound the alarm without making the
panic too evident. The Cincinnati Gazette has
adopted the plan Of crying 'Fraud," and, in q
double~leaded article in its issue Of the
29th inst, under the exciting title
Of "Attention, Republicans" foreshadows q
grand, comprehensive, and mysterious system on
the part Of the Greeley men, through which it
is intended to carry not only the State OF Ohio,
but Indiana and Illinois. The Gazette fails to give
the details of this deep and dangerous plot. It
promises these at some indefinite future date. It
notifies it's readers, however, that The apparent
apathy OF the Greeley party is but an outward dis
stimulation Of the confidence they feel in their
ability to carry these States. It confessos that
even Republicans are secretly admitting
it to be exceedingly probable that the vote Of
Ohio will be cast for 11r. Greeley, and that they
would not be surprised it he should receive
$4,000 majority in Hamilton County alone. AL
this is to be accomplished by the wickedest
schemes for repeating and ballot-box stuf6ng.
The Gazette even intimates that some men,
bers Of the Republican Executive Com
mittea Of the State have been tampered
with, ind are in secret consultation with
the Liberal managers. AL this being inter-
preted, means simply that the Republicans Of
Ohio, having elected their local officers, are
mainly Indifferent and apathetic toward Grant
ndneed stirring up.
The pretended fear that Ohio will be carried
for Greeley by fraud, is very absurd, in view Of
the fact that the entire machinery OF election
is in the hands Of the Grant party. If there
we're any real danger of this kind, it would
not be necessary to ventilate it in
the newspapers. Tie natural mode Of
defence would be in the Resistance which the
possession Of the majority Of the State and local
Offices would afford. With this power behind
them, the Republicans Of Ohio will scarcely Sc
cure the sympathy or pity which the Gazette
seems to think they ought to have. The plea is
rather the precursor Of defeat. It is an &C.
knowledgment OF either detection or supinc-
ness in the Republican ranks. It is the expres-
sion Of fear that the Btay-at-home Democrats
who held back in the October election will come
forward in the November election. The appre-
, 1872-11-01

hens1on that is felt in regard to the Ohio cleo
tion is naturally extended to Indiana aud Hi
nois. The prospect OF frauds in this State On
the part OF the Greeley men is not less absurd
and preposterous than in Ohio. In the first
place, Illinois has been singularly and happily
tree from the crimes Of repeating and ballot
stohng at ell times; in the second place, we're
this not the fact, the Grant managers
IN the State are the only persons who
nave the facilities for putting these popular
election agencies at work. In Indiana. the
Greeley party is kept too busy in protecting
1tseh against the customary devices OF Mr.
morton and the indianapolis Ring to invent or
apply any measures Of retaliation. In these two
states, then, as in Ohio, the expression Of the
6oze0e Is simply an indication Of the prevailing
fear among the Grant people that l1r. Greeley
WILL carry all three States next Tuesday. The
lear thus expressed has good founds-
ton In the probabilities OF the result. go
lar AZ they can be canvassed The State
election in Indiana showed Liberal strength,
OF the degree OF which the Liberals themselves
were ignorant. The consequence has been an
encouragement in both Indiana md Illinois for
that large class of citizens, entirely outside Of
the excitement Of politics, whose hearts have
been with the Liberal movement from the first,
but whose votes are always moro or less influ-
enced By the probabilities Of SUCCESS. This
must be what the Cincinnati Gazette means
when it says that there is danger that Ohio, In
diana, and illinois will be carried for Greeley
by fraud.

Hon. E. IT. Stanton, Secretary Of War, United States.
Sur: The Commission appointed to investigate the
Department Of Vest Mississippi hare the honor to send
you herewith copy OF letter transmitted by them
yesterday to Major General Candy.
The Var Department has already been furnished
with some Of the testimony taken In reference to Major
General Hur1but. Proof has since been added tending
to establish clearly General Hurlbuts guilt, This
proof will be Forwarded at III early day, The Com
mission will proceed with all possible diligence to in
vesgate every in which there appears to be the
least probability Of showing that the officers of our
Government have used their Btations to perpetuate
wrong.
They feel that in visiting General Hurlbut with the
treatment he seems so well to Deserve they strike at
once at the root Of the corrupt system which has
wrought 30 much mischief in this Department.
Respectfully, your obedient servants.
In accordance with these recommendations,
General Hurlbut was arrested, and proceedings
wera taken to organize Court-Martial for his
trial, Colonel Robinson being accepted az wit
ness for the Government. The General had in
duence enough at Washington, however, to es-
cape the fate he so richly deserved. He Was
allowed to resign, and the Commission there
upon advised that. as matter Of mere Justice.
