Especial Correspondence Of the Republican.l
NoRroLk. November ., Is7a
The election here has been perfect farce.
Intimidation, force and fraud have ruled the
day. Largely more white votes have been
voted aud counted than there arc white voters
In the city. Colored voters have been de-
layed, their votes rejected, and, at one pre-
cinct, more than two hundred were waiting
in line when the polls closed with their votes
uncast. Poaceable colored men have been
beaten, and white Republicans knocked down,
kicked and driven from the polls. In the
First ward rush was made upon the white
Republican chal!engers, their poll-books torn
from their hands and desti Dyed, and the
worst scenes Of 1871 re-enacted on larger
scale. The Conservatives clam majority
Of over Ave hundred In this city, and from
Intelligence brought In from the surrounding
counties 1t Is evident that the same tactics OF
fraud and intimidation have been employed
there. II Norfolk Is q sample of the rest OF
the State the election has been carried by the
most disgraceful frauds that have ever dis
graced any State. II these outrages are per-
mitted TO pass unpunished, as they probably
will be, as the State courts afford no redress
for Republicans, the latter will hereafter
take no part whatever In any State or muni.

resumption, II II tries to tide over the present
emergency by further imitation OF the currency,

AMONG THE questions decided In tho late
election In New York was whether the judges
should be appointed or elected. 'In deciding
to adhere to tho old system Of election We
think the people acted wisely. 1t is a singu'

loudly against Capitalization In tho Fedora
Government advocated the appointment cid.

OPPOsITION CLaP-TRAP,

For the Government pets, for the man who In
our nrst page Illustration Ia out OF work, the Re
ublican party Ia responsible. II has misman-
aged. 1t has failed. Instead Of preventing IL
| increased the evils. II must pay the pena'ty.
1t must give way to slower and more judlcols
party-a party without patronage or pets. In
Tue future, It seems to Us. the Republican party
must be ''out OF work."-Lesiie's illustrated Sers-
pdpsr.
The assertion that the Republican party is
responsible for the present condition Of Of.
fairs Is simply absurd, and Of . piece with
the stump buncombe We sometimes hear,
that the same party should be condemned
because Of the present national Indebtedness.
II there Is any responsibility anywhere 1t
rests with the party whose treason and dis
loyalty made the debt necessary. Northern
Democratic opposition to the war, draft
riots, the vallandIghams and the seymours,
did more to roll up the sum Of our indebted
ners, to dcpreclate our securities, and to con-
sequently increase the expenses Of the war,
than all the armies Of the rebellion In the
field. Democratic treason sent gold up to
two hundred; Republican administration,
economy and endeavor have, during the last
seven years, brought It down to one hundred
| and seven.

with politics. Mr.. Cooke and Mr.. Clews
happened to be Republicans and supporters
OF the Administration; Mr.. spraguo was, II
anywhere, upon tho other side. The idea OF
our Illustrated contemporary, however. seems
| to be that In some way the Republican party
should have brought us to specie payments
long ago, and that II we had had specie pay
ments we should not have had panic. This
Il an altogether mistaken theory. First,
there was no way to leglslate the country into
specie payments. The laws upon which they
rest arc entirely Independent of acts Of Con-
gress, and cannot, except in a very slight
degree, be Influenced by statutes however
wise or judlclous. Second, panlcs have oc-
Cured in periods Of specie as well as In
periods Of paper currency, as We have seen
several times In our own history. The pre-
diction that the Republican party must sur,
render the Government and be "out OF work
In the future will hardly be realized for some
years to come.

THE soLIcIrupB Of the New York Herdl
for the Republican party Is truly benign.
"Republicanism has accomplished much good
for the nation, and 1t will be no doubt pain
full to many to strike down tho organization
that carried the war for the Union to q sue
cessful termination and swept away from the
republic the curse Of human slavery" The
Herald had better attend to Its North Pole
expeditions aud its African discoveries, and
let politics alone. 1t knows nothing about
them, and never did.

IrIsA SIGNIFICANT FACT that in Far

IrIsA SIGNIFICANT FACT that In Fau-
suler county, Virginia, In which Mosby
resides, the Republican gain was
a fraction less than two hundred. Perhaps
the influence Of such staunch supporters ofthe
administration Of President Grant as Major
Richard II. Carter, had something to do with
this result. Itis pity thata few more Ma
tional Republicans and State Democrats like
Mosby had not been at work for Kemper.
That was oil that was required to insure the
election Of Colonel Hughes.

has come to the conclusion that sixty thou
sand in Massachusetts refusing to vote, and
as many more in New York, arc indications
Of a dccp-seated and widespread dsaffcction

Administration" The Administration Is the
same now as It was year ago, when these

Ii ANYTHING wcrc needed TO prove that
such men rs President MacMahon. now at
the head Of the French Government, are In.
capable Of approaching the spirit OF rcpub-
licanism, II Il to be found In his late message
to the French Assembly. In that most i'm
portant document be declares that his Gov
ernment is "unablc even TO obtain obedience
from its own agents, or to reprcss the ex-
ces.es Of journals which are corruptlng tho
public mind, aud calls for "a strong, durable
executive, which can encrgctically defend
society" In this country we compel obc-
dience from the officers Of our Government
through the medium Of the courts; but Mac
Mahon seeks the power to compel that obc-
dieuce through the executive, l. G., seeks to do
It himself. We find our press engaged In
defending society through the very freedom
which he would attempt TO curb on the ground
that the journals corrupt the public mind.
The truth is that newspapers are printed In
France, rs they are In the United States, to
meet public demand for certain kinds oI
literature. and " they fail to meet that de.
mand their publishers would be foolish In.
deed to continue their publication. Mac
Mahon's idea Is to force upon the public .
press which II does not demand, and that Il
shall be subjected TO the censurc Of the Gov
eminent from which It would ncccssaril,
