Rumanism at the Polls.

In the state of the public mind with regard
to politics the bloody occurrence of yesterday
will scarcely excite just tone of comment.
Such things seem to flow SO naturally from the
bad spirit and violent party oppositions to
which we are accustomed that it is something
if people are surprised at them; and even if
they are their surprise will only note the fact
that such occurrences have been lately less
common than they once were. To stir up
popular indignation that the vices in our po-
litical system out of which such things grow
are possible seems labor beyond the reach
of the press. And to argue that the presence
on the street. on such an OCCASION of a candi-
date for Congress is unseemly and wanting in
self-respect would, perhaps sound ridiculous.
as seeming to imply an opinion that Congress
men regulated their actions on some good
ethical standard. But the telegraph
will carry the news to an outside
world less apathetic than our own people in
comment on our misdoings, and perhaps the
distorted picture OF us that is made abroad
out Of every such occurrence will compel
attention. In ten or twelve days we shall
receive the London papers, with their tele-
gram to the effect that in the election in New
York fight was provoked in the streets about
the person of q candidate for Congress, that
pistols were used, and that one man was
killed and another badly wounded; and we
shall have the free comment of the English
press with the Saturday Rerieu at the head,
on American manners and American ideas Of
fair play, and, in short, on the operation of
popular government. 1t is very certain that
we shall not like the comments, but they will
be salutary if they teach us to see ourselves in
this matter as others see us.

IT Would Be interesting to hear the sbosom
friends, Morrissey and Kelly, discuss the re-
suits of the election.

The LOUISIANA ELEcr1oN-THE CoLoREp
VoTE.-From the Louisiana election returns.
so far received, it appears that the democrats
and conservatives have gained substantial
victory, and thus are materially indebted in
the results achieved to the large bodies of
colored voters who joined them in the election.
This breaking up Of 'the color line is, how
ever, the great victory tor it is only by
the abolition of the "white mans party and
the ''black mans party" and by the mixing
OF whites and blacks in both parties, that law
and order in their political contests and social
harmony and good will between the two races
can be secured in the South. Let the good
example of Louisiana be followed up, and let
the color line be obliterated throughout the
Southern States, and peace, law, order and
prosperity therein will soon follow.

Bdr. Bryant's Birthday.

William Cullen Bryant, the most venerable
and honored member of the editorial pro-
fession in this country, the first OF our poets.
the model of every public and every private
virtue, completed his eightieth year yester-
DAY. We join our congratulations with those
Of his other admirers on an occasion Of 50
much interest. Mr.. Bryant has outlived
Cooper, our first novelist he has outlived
Irving, our greatest master of elegant prose he
has outlived Jackson, Clay, Calhoun, Webster,
the most gifted statesmen who were conspicu-
GUS in the active period of his life he has
outlived Bennett, and Greeley, and Noah, and
Crosswell, and Ritchie, and Gales (but not
Blair, who still lives at an age as advanced and
with faculties rs vigorous as Mr. Bryapt's, nor
Weed who is nearly as old); but if several
of Mr.. Bryants distinguished journalistic
contemporaries, who were so potent and SO
vigorous in the days of his prime, still sur
vive, he is the only one of them who retains
an active connection with journalism Mr..
Blair dissolved his editorial relation to the
Globe nearly thirty years ago and retired to
Silver Spring; it is some thirteen or fourteen
years since Mr.. Weed retired from the Alban3
Journal and Mr. Webb from the Courier and
Enquirer, SO that Mr. Bryant is the oldest
editor in the United States who retains hia
connection with the press. We tender him
our sincere congratulations on this anniver.
sary and recognize him as the most distin.
guished member Of the editorial profession In
the United States Mr. Bryant's reputation
is less ephemeral than If it rested on his
services as journalist. His is one Of thu
most important names in American literature,
as well as in American journalism, aud the
tasteful compliment paid him yesterday in the
presentation of o costly and appropriately
engraved vase was . tribute to his literary
eminence, the only character in which he will
be much known to posterity. His vigorous
editorials in the Evening Post for SO many
years merely Influenced the passing opinions
of the day; but his best poems will be read
and loved long after the transient politics Of
Mr.. Bryant's time ore forgotten. In celebrat-
ing his eightieth birthday we recognize the
superior lustre of purely literary merits, but
if Mr.. Bryant himself were to pronounce on
his own career we have little doubt that hs
would give the preference to his patriotic at
tempts to serve the country as q journalist.

Appropriations and the Elections.

APPIOPIA0SAOMs 0hU SAC 1IAOCtAOASs
just before the elections we had promises
from Washington of reduced estimates for the
current year and consequent reduction in
the aggregate Of the appropriation bills at the
coming session of Congress. 1t is true these
promises are made every year, but when they
have served their purposes in the canvass pre-
ceding the elections they are entirely disre-
garded This trjfing with the people must
cease. The appropriation bills are always Of
the highest Importance, generally more i'm
portant than any legislation before Congress.
They are the safeguards OF economy and re-
trenchment. If the promises SO often made
within the last two or three years had been
kept they would have resulted in saving mill
ions of dollars to the country. II they are
kept at the coming session Of Congress mill
ions will be saved in single year. One OF
the lessons of yesterdays elections is that these
promises must be kept. The people, though
they nobly bear the burdens imposed by tie
war, are determined that excessive outiays
shall cease. Many votes were lost to the re-
publican party because tn, appropriation
bills have been extravagant and the reduced
majority of General Garfield, the Chairman
of the Committee on Appropriations, was
partly owing to the same cause. Congress
will meet only month hence, and Garfield
will be the practical director OF its delibera-
tions. Will he and his party really learn the
lesson Of the elections and obey the behests
of the people? More than ever 1t is neces-
sary. in order to purify the public service.

A NEW JERSEY SWIMMER recently astonished
the natives Of Skihbereen, on the coast Of the
Emerald Isle, by jumping overheard from
transatlantic steamship in the middle Of q
gale and reaching land after seven hours
swim. But they might have told him the
story of their countryman who offered to swim
from Quebec, with an anchor as ballast,
against the champion in that locality, and
was prevented only from doing SO by the other
man backing out.

given him and his party thousands of extra
votes. But Mr. Tilden was too complaisant.
| He reminds us Of the late James Buchanan.
Polished, gentlemaply, high-reaching, clean,
courteous, preser-iug reform and good govern
ment, and not fearing TO strive for it when he
was not assailed by political and personal
responsibilities, he has shown that even he
can stoop to rise. Mr.. Buchanan,
as President in place of Pierce, would have
retired with general acceptab;lity, but when
confronted by the storms of secession he be-
came helpless. Mr. Tilden, confronted by the
bold grasping men who control Tammany
Hall, surrendered. He may plead that he did
this for the honor and peace of the party, but
it does not give US the most cheerful anticipa-
tions of what he would do if called upon to
accept responsibilities like those which at
tended the administrations of jackson and
Lincoln.
The minor results of the canvass are re-
corded elsewhere. In New York Tammany
elects the Mayor, although by a minority of
the full vote, Mr.. Hayes is defeated for Regis
ter by a pronounced and decisive majority
Mr.. Ottendorfer and the Creamer movement
have made gallant and splendid fight. Mr.
Kelly will learn from this that, powerful as
he is, he cannot trife with the public opinion
even of his own party. How much better
would it have been had he taken the advice of
the HERALD, and, Withdrawing Mr.. Hayes,
permitted the election of Jones by unani-
nous vote. The defeat of Mr.. Hayes is
the extinction Of the old ring. The third
term is buried forever. General Grant has
two years before him in which to retrieve
many of the mistakes which have brought dis
comfture upon his administration and defeat
upon his party. Let him take this lesson in
its highest sense, and remember what he owes
to his great name, his fame and the place he
would hold in history. His career as politi-
cal leader is closed, but there remains to him
personal career, which he can vindicate and
confirm by two years of good government, re-
form and devotion to the highest and truest
principles Of administration.
