\ SOON rs it was asccrtained that
the radical party had been utterly an
initiated il Mississippi ut the late cleo
tion, the JOhnstown Tribune, true to
Its vocation, in order to break the force
of the victory, made haste to proclaim
that the Democratic Legislature of that
State would elect Jefferson Davis to
the Senate of the United States. OF
course the purpose of such q Mum
chausenlsm is apparent and well un-
derstood. In the first place, there is
no vacancy in the Senate from Missis-
sippi. The term of Alcorn, one of the
Senators, will not expire until 1871,
and the term of the other Bruce. col
ored, y no. until 1891. In the second
place, Davis is Ineligible, for the rea-
son that Congress has never removed
his disabilities incurred by his partici-
patton in the rebellion and lastly, he
could not be elected for the plain rea-
son that he is not n citizen of the State,
as required by tie constitution. but is
and for long time has been n perma-
nent resident of Memphis, Tennessee.
Knowing all this, it still suits the base
purposes of radical editors to stooD to
the lowest and meancst inventions in
order, if possible, to infame the pub
lie mind of the North against redeemed
and disenthralled Mississippi

THE smoke of the November elcc-
tions having passed away and the re-
suits been ascertained, there is nothing
to discourage the Democracy from en-
tering on the Presidential contest next
yeai with renewed vigor and deter
mination to achieve success. In Mass
achusetts, where at former elections
the Republican party carried the State
by majorities ranging from ffty TO
seCenty thousand, it elected Rice Gov
ernor by only 5000. In New Y 9ork
the Democratic State ticket was sue
cessful by about 5000 majority
This is much less than the majority
of Governor Tilden last year, but un-
der all the circumstances it is as large
as could have been expected. The
canal ring, composed in part ssof Dem
ocrats, against which Tilden has been
waging bitter and unrelenting war,
threw its whole force against the De
mocracv and in favor of the Republi-
can State ticket, as we'll as in favor of
the candidates Of that patty for the
Legislature Nevertheless, the people
of the State sustained Governor Til
den and will vote next year in favor
Of the Democratic candidate for Presi-
dent. New Jersey elected Republi-
can Legislature on loc;d issues, but as
there is no United States Senator to
be chosen, the Democracy have lost
nothing in national point of view
In Wisconsin, where the Republicans
have been successful. by large majori-
ties ut every election from 1857 to
1873. their candidate for Governor
was elected by only about 500 majori-
", the democrats carrying a portion
of the State ticket Minnesota, Iowa
ana Kansas went for the Republicans
as a matter of course. They couldn't
do anything else. In Mississippi the
conservatives, ,r.aided by very con-
siderable portion of the negro vote,
made clean sweep leaving scarcely a
vestige of carpet-bagism to indicate
the wreck. Virginia and MARYLAND
remain true to their political integrity
and steadfast in their Democratic
faith These are the results. Where
then are the radical victories about
which so much boasting has been in
dulged in? In the face of facts they
have no substantial existance. If the
national Democratic convention next
year VIII act prudcntly and present tc
the people for their suffrages a capa-
bic and honest man as its candidate
for President, the result of the con
test does not admit of q reasonable
doubt.

THE following card from the Re-
publican candidate for State Treasurer
appeared in the Erie GazeHe on the
Sunday before the election. as we learn
from the Observer, from which it is
copied As the date of the communi-
cation shows, there was little time for
its circulation among the people of the
State. Important as are its contents.
it was not considered necessary to send
it by telegraph, circulation among the
immediate neighbors of Mr. Rawlc be-
ing considered sufficient But now
that the election is over the public will
be glad to learn the policy which the
Treasurer elect intends to pursue in
the management of the finances of the
commonwealth
ERIE October 30, 1975.-To the Editor
of the Gazette-SIR / notice that the

ONE of the most gratifying results
of the recent elections is the corrupt
and overwhelming triumph of the con-
servative party in that long plundered
and misgoverned commonwealth, Mis-
sissippi. That State contains more
colored than white people. and at
elections heretofore the radical leaders.
who are mainly northern adventures
intent only on spoils and plunder, have
succeeded in arraying the colored vote
III solid column in favor of the can
didates Of their party. The negroes
however after ten long years of car
pet-bag corruption, have become sick
and weary Of the infliction, and have
discovered after bitter experience who
are their true friends. Seeing and
knowing all this, what is called the
cotor-ttae in Southern politics was
broken at the election in Mississippi
and enough of the negro vote united
with the conservatives to secure the
State from the clutches of imported
demagogues. A new and prosperous
career is thus opened up to the op-
pressed taxpayers of that plundered
State and future good government as
sured. The election passed off peace
ably and without the least disturbance.
This was not the programme marked
out by Ames, her carpet bag Governor.
Twice he importuned Grant for military
aid in view Of imaginary outrages to
he perpetratcd by the white people on
the negroes. But Grant, however
willing he was to comply with the de-
mand, was held in check bv his At
torney General, as well as bv the bro
test of the decent and influential
radicals of the State itself, and the
result has been as stated-a quiet and
peaceable election and the complete
overthrow of Ames and the corrupt
crew who have so long ruled and OBJ
pressed her people, white as well as
black. Tue death. knell of carpct-bap.
ism as well as of radicalism in Missis-
sippi has been sounded, and the vote OF
that State may be securely counted on
to swell the Democratic victory i'm the
Presidential campaign of 1875.
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1875-11-12

WE suppose that notwithstanding
the result of the late election in this
county, the leaders of the radical par.
ty will cling to the dcluson in the fu-
ture, as they have in the past, that bv
some political miracle they NAV sue
ceed in electing, if not the whole. at
least part of their ticket. Their faith
IN this respect, although annually
shattered, is somewhat peculiar. But
then great poet has said that
Hope springs eternal in the human breast
Man never IS, but always to be best."
They may perhaps, as at the last
election in the case of County Treas
urer, by the aid ofmisguided and badly
advised Democrats, reduce the major
ity of particular candidate. but iftbe
county convention is careful IN its
nominations the ticket is bound to be
successful. The Democratic party in
the county is now more nearly a unit
than it has been for the last four wears
and at the next election will present a
solid and unbroken front. We have
been told of two or three ambitious
but verdant Republicans who are now
in training for the Sheriffaltv next year.
III they can derive any amusement
from such pastime we know Of no good
reason why they should not INDULGE
in it. 1t is mere matter of taste
about which there should be no dispute.
