but with California, New Hampshire, and
Oregon already in the fold, Pennsylvania
and Ohio knocking at the door, and Maine,
Massachusetts, and Wisconsin trembling in
the balance, who shall say that the prom
Use of electing Democratic President in
1876 is not very roseate?
The Herald foresees the same probable
ity, and from the results of the recent cleo
tons draws the lesson that the Republican
party is in greater danger of defeat now
than before, for this reason:
The fall elections have probably given the
predominance among the Democrats to their
ablest and wisest leaders, while they have cut
from under the Republicans the favorable
ground on which they had expected to fight
their battle next year. They are compelled to
seek new position. and in doing so there is
very grave danger that they will blunder. 1t
is always more difficult for a party in power
than for minority to rise above its old record,
to cast out its dangerous and selfish elements
and to initiate genuine reforms. This is be-
cause the reformers in party which possesses
power are likely to be out of favor with the
controlling elements; their efforts are at once
resisted by those who hold power and who are
necessarily opposed to reforms, else they would
make them without compulson. The Repub-
lcan party is strongly coherent force, whose
rulers have a great deal at stake, which they
fear to lose by such changes as we call ere

religious question into the next canvass. All
this means only quiet but stubborn resistance

Now, while the Democracy have Il
good chance of carrying every one OF
these states, there is only necessary to
their success sixty-four Of the above one

and more than these can readily be fur

states and likely to continue so-which

1t is true, as the Herald suggests, that
the preliminary October skirmish in Ohio
will go far to determine the result in No.
yember of next year, and its result may de-
eide many of the doubtful states included
in the above list. Into it will therefore
be thrown all the resources of the admin
istration party, and the most desperate Ell
lorts Will be employed to secure its con-
trolling influence. But the experience Of
this year has shown what slender thread
Republican hopes therefor hang upon, and
what a strong probability there isof Dem
ocratic success next year in both Ohio and
Pennsylvania. Even conceding the most
disastrous results to us in the former state,
its flood tide cannot reach the high DEM
ocratic water mark in Connecticut North
Carolina, Indiana, and New York, and,
therefore, conceding all to the Republ-
cans that may be claimed under the most
suspicious contingencies, 1877 electoral
votes - two more than necessary are
assured for the Democratic Presidential
candidate, and any of the following states
which he may carry will only aid to in
crease his majority:

energetic purpose to no anything and seize on

BY steady persistence in the demand
for these reforms, and by the agitation in
the Congress which it will control OF these
real and vital issues which are in the peo-
pies minds" the Democratic party will so
entrench itself in political power and pop
ular confidence that next year will find it
able to sweep all the doubtful states and
ride triumphantly into power.

Democratic electoral votes.

Renuhlican electoral votes.

This conjecture elects, as things now
stand, a Democratic President hy the
slender majority of seven electoral votes,
a margin which might be overcome by
the turn OF any one of the several states
in the above Democratic list, which may
be claimed under some circumstances to
be doubtful. This consideration prompts
us to critically sean the Heralds table
to see what promise it contains to either
party
1t will be seen that it is exceedingly
liberal to the opposition. While of the
states conceded to the Democracy, Cali
fornia, Connecticut, Indiana, New York
and New Hampshire, aggregating sixty
seven votes, may in some contingency
become battle grounds, of those accord
ed to the Republicans, Colorado, Neva-
da, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio,
Oregon, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin,
aggregating eighty-six electoral votes,
are within the reach of the Democracy,
and possibly Maine and Massachusetts,
with twenty, may be carried tor its can
didate Thus, while the almost certain
Democratic electoral vote is reduced to
12l, that OF the opposition is cut down
to 90, and even below that figure; leav-

Arrangements for the Centennial.

The Act of Congress which provided
for celebrating the one hundredth Ami
yersary of American Independence, by
holding an international Exhibition Of
Arts, Manufactures, and Products of the
Soil and Nine" authorized the creation
of the United States Centennial Commits
sion and entrusted to it the management
81 the Exhibition. This body is compos-
ed Of two Commissioners from each State
and Territory, nominated by the respect
i've Governors, and commissioned 10y the
President Of the United States. The en-
terprlse therefore, is distinctly a national
one, and not, as has sometimes been stat
ca. the work OF a private corporation.
lie Exhibition will be opened on May
10th, 1876. and remain open every day,
except Sunday, until November 10th.
There viii be a fixed price of 30 cents tor
admission to all the buildings and grounds,
The Centennial grounds are situated on
the western bank of the Schuylkill River,
and within Paramount Park, the largest
park in unity to great city in the
world, and one OF the most beautiful in
the country The Park contains 3160 acres
40 of which have been enclosed tor the
Exhibition. Besides this tract, there will
be large yards near by for the Exhibition
OF stock, and a farm of AZ acres has al
ready been suitably planted for the tests
OF ploWs, mowers, reapers and other agri-
cultural machinery.
The Exhibition buildings are approach
ed by eight lines of street cars, which
connect with all the other lines in the city
and hv the Pennsylvania and Reading
railroads, over the tracks of which trains
viii also ran from the North Pennsylvania
and Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal
timore railroads. Thus the Exhibition is
in immediate connection with the entire
railroad system OF the country, and any
one within 90 miles of Philadelphia can
visit it ut no greater cost than that OF car
fingt hire at the Paris or Vienna Exhibi-
lion,
The articles to be exhibited have been
