py, We have elected majority of the
next House of Representatives, and
everything points to an overwhelm-
ing Conservative and Democratic tri-
Gmph two years hence. the last
trumps of the Radicals have been
played-reconstructi ku-kluX, civil
rights outrages-and all without eff
feet. The corruption which that par
ty have SO openly practiced. the mis-
government which it has fOstered up
on the people. the tyranny practiced
upon Mr.. Tilden by the Radicals of
this city, before the election, and OPP
preston which it has u2blushingly
supported. have Disguised the people,
and it will no longer be trusted with
the power which it has so iagrantly
abused. The result of the recent
great victory, will be the utter rOut of
radicalism in 1876, If the Conservative
and Democratic party remains true to
the principles which have Just re-
ceived signal vindication, if it rejects
all entangling alliances, all comprO-
misses with wrong doing and wrong
doors, and acts with wisdom ard mod
Grafton. There is too much at stake,
for US to risk anything by impudence
or q resort to doubtful expedients.
It is necessary that in the South es-
pecially. the people should act with
the greatest caution. and prudence
We may expect constant aggressions
upon us for the next two years by the
Radicals. who will work with the
hope of making us do something
which will give them capital. We
must see to it that they are disap'
pointed. We must see to it that
nothing is done by the South to rob
us of the fruits Of victory. If this be
done, and if our friends in the Moth
continue to work vigorously and
shillfully. making the fight upon liv'
ing issues and rejecting all sharing
compromises, the next President Of
the United States will be an able mar
of the Conservative and Democrat

South will be assured.

EVENT and COMMENT

Forney writes from his perch IN
Europe that the Republicans VIII
have to change their policy before
they can win. He says expansion Is
the word and that the people want
the reduction Of the public debt
stopped. they want more money, and
they want the trans sentimental rail-
roads built ;. by which he means, we
presume, the Northern Pacific and the
Southern Pacific. The party that
goes for these measures will please
the people says FOrney.
Emmerson Ethridge comes to the
defence of Mr.. Jefferson Davis who,
he says. improvised armies and for
warded them more rapidly than any
other man in either ancient or modern
times, and that in his Imprisonment
at Fortress Monroe he bore himself
with more herOism and fortitude than
did Napoleon at St. Helena.
Work on the Valley r. r. between
Stanton and Salem has been sus~
pended, as "they say for want OF
means. owning to the depression OF
all railway securities in Europe. We
guess it means to leave Salem out in
