The best joke of the season is the
Gazette's attempt to palm off the N.
Y. Tribune as Republican paper
Is it possible the editor has so soon
forgotten that he supported Horace
Greeley for President two years ago?
The Tribune has been about as much
a ''RepubGcan paper" since that time
as the Cincinnati Enquirer, and has
never pretended to be Republican.
Yet the editor of the Gazette quotes
the Tribune's articles, apologizing for
the Louisiana rebellion, as the utter
ances of an honest and fearless Re
publican editor, who "speaks the
whole truth, regardless of consequen-
ces to his party" and then hypocriti-
cally adds: "But the editor of the
News is made of different material,
we are sorry to say, and would rather
cover up the misdeeds of his party
although the whole country suffers.
ALI of which is tolerably "cool, we
should say-for the season.
Now can't the editor of the great
'tmoral organ"-(whose pious soul
can tolerate circuses that don't adj
vertise in the Gazette)-copy few
more extracts, defending the Louisi-
ana White Leaguers, from such 'tRe-
publican papers" as the Louisville
Courier Journal, the Atlanta News,
New Orleans Picayune, &C.?

The only unquestioned "disclo-
sures" which have attended the en-
tire controversy involve the revela-
ton of unsuspected weakness in Mr..
Beecher's character-of moral cow
ardice, of tendency to use words in
non-natural sense, of surprising igno-
rance of human character, and of
amazing preferences for rather worth
less people. The undoubted proof
which has been given of the exist
ence of such failings, joined with o
morbid and dangerous habit OF mix
ing up the most solemn with the
most trivial subjects, will doubtless
seriously imbair Mr.. Beechers fu-
ture influence as great religious
teacher. But it will need something
much more convincing and far less
replete with obvious malice and FL
thy suggestion than this last state
ment of Nh. Moulton to put an end
to that influence altogether.-CNew

PETERsoN's MAGAZINE, one of the
most popular of the Lady's Books, is
on our table for November. The
principal steel engraving, "Buy my
Lilies" is very beautiful. So, also, is
the mammoth colored steel fashion
plate. A prominent feature of this
Magazine is its copyright novelettes,
which are superior to the continued
stories to be found in magazines gen
orally. The low price is another
thing in its favor. It is but two dol
lars year, postage prepaid by the
publisher. The Prospectus for 1875
is published with this number, and
we find that the prices to clubs are
astonishingly low, viz: three copies
for $3.50, postage prepaid with a
superb Mezzotint (21 inches by 26)
"Washington's First Interview with
His Wife," postage pre-paid,) one of
the finest and costiest ever offered, to
the person getting up the club; or
five copies for $3.50, postage pre-
paid,) and both an extra copy and
the premium engraving (both post
age pre-paid) to the person getting
up the club. For large clubs the
prices are even lower. Specimens of
the Magazine are sent, gratis, if writ
ten for. Address Charles J. Peter
son, 306 Chestnut Street, Philadel-
phia, Pa.

We presume our readers were ra-
ther puzzled at not finding the Let
ter of Col. Hays, of Ala, and the Ad-
dress of the Republican Congression-
al Committee, in our last week Sup
plement. We supposed it contained
both at the time we wrote, and did
not discover the mistake until after
the paper was printed. The mistake
arose from our accidentally getting
hold of another Supplement issued
by the Republican State Committee,
which contained the Letter and Ad-
dress, from which fact we inferred,
without examination, that the Sup
plement sent us by the Committee
was the same. The matter it con-
tanned, however, was excellent, and
perhaps was fully as acceptable to
our readers as anything else we could
have given them.

JACKSON COUNTY CoAL--The Xenia
News of last week says: ''The trus-

Cincinnati have subjected the Jack
son county coal to thorough test,
and their engineer has reported that
it is nearly thirteen per cent. supe-
rior to what has hitherto been recog-
nized as the best wer-produciDg
coal in the United States-the
Youghiogheny. The merits of this
wonderful deposit of carbon in Jack
son county are just beginning to be
appreciated"

The Missouri Republicans are con-
fdent of wrestling the State from
Democratic control, in the near fu-
ture, basing their calculations on the
fact that after January 1st, 1876,
every person in order to become a
voter must be able to read and write.
The st. Louis Globe, referring to
this matter says:
"Unless we are gravely in error
which we never are-that will dis
franchise about as many Democrats
as the iron-clad oath did"

The Democracy have probably car
ried Ohio by from 10000 to $4,000
majority. They claim to have gained
4 Congressman, defeating Gunkle in
the Dayton district, Foster in the
Cleveland district; Robinson in the
Tiffn, and Pratt in the Toledo dis
trict. If this be true, the next
delegation in Congress Will stand IL
Democrats to 9 Republicans. The
Cincinnati Gazette of this morning
"wednesday thus speaks of the re-
suit:
"On a platform of reputation, in
f1ation, anti-temperance, and general
cussedness, the Democratic party,
yesterday, carried the State of Ohio
by a decided majority, and also,
elected eleven of the twenty Con-
gressmen. This tells the story. In
formation is meagre, and it is too
soon to moralize upon the result.
We thought better of the people of
Ohio, but we are disappointed. The
decision, however, will not stand. 1t
will be reversed. The majority of the
voters of Ohio mean to do right,
and when they come to see what has
been done they will swiftly get on
the right side again "
Indiana is close, and the result
doubtful on the State ticket. The
claim to have certainly
elected 7 out of 13 Congressman,
and a majority of the Legislature,
thus securing a .. S. Senator.
Iowa maintains her ancient fdeli-
ty to Republican principles, and
elects the entire Republican Con
gressional ticket
Nebraska has also gone Republi-
can by a decided majority, and elec t
ed Republican Legislature, which
will have to elect U. S. Senator.

received at the Agricultural depart
ment show that the wheat crop will
nearly average..thatof last year; none
of the large corn producing States
will reach an average; there will be
a far crop of oats, potatoes and hay,
but less than half a crop of tobacco.
