New Hampshire Election.

That great Republican victory in
New Hampshire which the Radicals
were shouting over so Justify week
ago is growing small by degrees and
beautifully less. There was not such
a tremendous '.reaction" after all, and
the truth is, the result of the election
in the Old Granite State is substan-
tial Democratic victory. The Demo-
Gratis have elected two of the three
members of Congress which is a gain
of one, and secured q majority of the
popular vote on Congressman of 553,
rendering it pretty certain that they
will carry the State next year. There
has been no election of Governor by
the people, the Republican candidate
having plurality OF only about 80
while nearly the entire Prohibition
vote was cast for him. The lower
House of the Legislature is aepubli-
can by small majority, while the
Senate and Council are claimed by the
Democrats. That is not much of a
victory to shout over. .i1. -f......-,.

A SPECIAL from Washington 10 the
Enquirer dated the Nth, says: eek
President Johnson will speak on the
Louisiana case Tomorrow or Tuesday,
and it is understood will present some
striking facts not hitherto ELECTED in
the discussion. One is the fact that
while he was President, Governor
Rrownlow applied for the expulsion
by the army Of certain unpardOned
rebels, who were then sitting as mem
bers Of the Tennessee Legislature, and
that Secretary Stanton concurred with
him in the decision that there was no
power in the Federal Government to
interfere with the Legislature of a
State. Another point which he will
make is that Pinchbach is disqualified
as Senator by the provision in the
Constitution which declares that a
Senator shall have been nine years a
citizen of the United States. Accord
ing to the decision of the United States
Supreme Court i'm the Dred Scott case,
negroes were not citizens of the
United States, and 1t was not until
1868, when the Fourteenth Amend
ment was formally declared to have
been duly ratified, that they became
such citizens. According TO this view
which the Ex-President is tho first to
PROFOUND. it win be two years before
Pinchback will be eligible as a SEN
ator." i'"

Terrific Powder Explosion.


AT about quarter past one O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon a terrific explosion
or series of explosions occurred at
the mills of the Austin Powder Com
pany, located near Newburgb, about
six or seven miles from Cleveland.
The explosion originated in the rifle
corning mill. From that the flames
spread to the press mill, which explo-
ded in a second, and was followed BY
the glazing mill, and five mixing mills.
Three men were killed by the explo-
sion, their bodies being blown to at
oms. The explosion rendered the ell
tire valley complete waste, deep
holes marking the spot where large
buildings had stood. The concussion
was severely felt in the city, and much
damage was done. Houses were sha-
ken as by an earthquake; windows
and sash were broken, among them
being some of the finest lights in the
city. The largest was in the new City
Hall, valued at $1,000. The loss OF
the Powder Works is estimated at
from $4,000 to 100000, while that
in the city will reach several thou
sands. --t .ttI.s .-..l

The Frankiag Fraud,

1t is not unlikely that the franking
ofletters is postponed a year as a grace.
ful concession 10 colored Congressman
who may industriously devote the in
terval to learning to write; but the
immense fraud of franking speeches,
agricultural reports and seeds begins
at once, with all the opportunities and
enormitles the scheme suggests. The
more Important messages, reports, and
even speeches made in Congress, are
printed in the newspaper weeks and
sometimes months before they are is
sued from the Public Printing Office.
From that source they come at last,
printed in the poorest ink upon the
fiimsiest of paper, yet every copy cost
ing the country rs MUCH as if 1t were
an original folio of Shakespeare" of
1923. Enormous sums of money are
absolutely thrown away solely to fav-
or interested parties. No public docu-
mont is worth one-ihousandih part of
W hat it is made 10 cost the country.
Not one in ten thousand is worth
printing at all. AS for the 'sagricul-
tural reports" which are specified
with such particularly and favor, it is
fortunate that the mislnformation as
to what the farmer should do in June
reaches him generally in the follow
ing February. and so saves him from
ruin. If the directions issued from
the Washington asrioultuiists were
closely followed, the rural regions of
our land would soon BECOME IA second
Sahara. With regard to the seeds,
apart from the widespread aisseinina-
ton OF pestiferous weeds, it becomes
Il serious inquiry if the eggs OF the
Colorado beetle and OF the Nebraska
locust (erroneousIy called by the
Washington agriculturists Il ''grass-
hopper } were not originally issued
from that bureau and scattered
throughout the West as seeds p Al

From the New York World.
--.-a-s..E


The tax-burdened, monopoly-ridden
people of the United States may well
draw long breath of relief upon the
final adjournment Of the last Republi-
can Congress that will ever be called
to assemble in the Capitol. For it may
be safely said that there is no civilized
country on the globe that imposes such
oheroHs and unjust taxes upon the
poorest AID most industrious classes
Of its population as the Governmen.
Of the United States has imposed upon
these classes OF its population during
the fourteen years of Radical suprem-
acy which closed Oh the 4th of March.
The scenes of confusion in the two
houses of Congress, the hot haste OF
lobbyists and axe-bearers to get their
pet schemes upon the fast whirling
parliamentary wheel while yet it was
in motion, and the recklessness with
which all sorts of ill-djgested legisla-
ton was pressed through i'm the final
rush, were a fitting period to an era
of reckless partisan and personal leg
islation which the country cannot af-
ferd soon to see return. Such fiscal
and financial legislation as we have
had is a curse and disgrace to civil
iZation itself. Its undcserved bounty
to monopolists and special classes of
the rich and well-to-do has been fully
and patiently exposed and denounced
by the Democratic press and openly
boasted about by it's Republican ad-
voca.es. Its oppressiveness to the
classes who are least able to bear its
expressions has also been abundantly
exposed, and nowhere more earnestly
exposed and denounced than in the
columns of The World. An analysis
OF the sources from which the reve-
nues of the government are derived,
however, may be profitably made at
this time TO show how bungling and
unjust is the system of monopoly tax
alton which the Republican party has
bcqueathed to the country. ....- 81.
For the fiscal year 1874 the total net
revenue OF the Government amounted
to $299. .941, ,O90S4. Ofthis amount the
customs produced SI63, 1O3, $500. and
the internal revenue Sl02, ,409, ,7S49
giving S265, ,5l3, ,6lS.59 of revenue from
these two sources. The people on
whom this taxation fell most heavily
may be discerned i'm the subjoined table

ATWATER.

Correspondence
We now have good reasons for be-
lieving that winter is over. Not the
least convincing of these is the fact
that the robina and blue birds have
come, and that bird has been heard in
the woods pecking on the hollow tree.
At the close of the hardest winter that
has been known for many years. it
would not be improper to look back
and see how we got through it.
The stone ware shops at the station
have been running all winter with the
exception of short time during the
holidays. These companies were
very fortunate in getting their clay and
wood hauled last fall while the roads
were good. l haye been informed
that Burns has wood enough in the
yard to keep his shops going for two
years. 1t is thought there will be a
good sale for stone ware the coming
year.
The Hardware store OF p. G.. Woolf
e Brother has been doing fine busi-
ness during the winter. They sold
out all of their corn shelters, feed cut
ters and few dozen wood saws as
well as a large number of other arti-
cles, 1t ID q very nice thing for us TO
have hardware store here, where we
can find all carpenter tools we NAV
ever want to use, l have been keep.
. ing house over twenty years but
never had wood-saw put in decent
orGer till bought a saw-set at Woolfs
store and set them myself. The new
saw [ got there was set right it would
go through a green sticl, of wood
without pinching. Many boy has
worked and sweat and CREASED the
saw and finally broke it because il was
not set wide enough. Mr.. SANFORD,
the timer is reaping q great harvest
by making large oil cans for the
Changers to keep burning fluid in.
And they have large contract for
making cans to put molasses in to ship
to the cities. These orders with other
business in their line gives them good
employment
Will Stockberger at the center has
had steady employment in his shop
all winter. He has six new buggies
for sale and is getting up as many
more for sale, TO be ready as soon ai
the roads are good enough to use
them. .st.
While the roads were good the
farmers made good use of them in
hauling logs to the mills. The larges,
number and the incest lot of logs ever
brought together in this town may be
seen in Stroup's mill yard. The other
mills have nice poplar logs, but not SO
many as at Stroup's. This points to
good business next summer.

THE FOX HUNT.

The Atwater and Deerfeld fox hunt
came of last Saturday. Ii was y day
long to be remembered by those who
participated. 1t is absolutely neces-
have men stationed at every point
along the lines. There were places
for miles alorg the lines where no one
could be seen. Between nine and ten
O'Clock the squads started. for they
went in squads, 10 regularity being
observed. The very armament re-
sounded with the hideous cries and
yells. On arriving at the place select
ed for the fun-there was no fun in
crossing the marshes and falling into
the creeks-wc saw the Deerfieid men
stationed along their lines, they hav-
ing mad ample time TO prepare. We
also observed few men perchea on
the fences TO see the fun. But before
the Atwater men could form them
selves into lines, four Of the foxes es-
capped. Some of the dogs being let
loose, they caught The Youngest fox.
Everyone left the lines and rushed for
the center of the circle, where the
fox lay dead. paying no attention to
the other foxes but giving them ample
slime to escape. The marshalls, instead
of giving command as they should
have done, took after the foxes on
horseback.
There were about one thousand
people present to witness the scene.
The fox was sold to John Helms, of
Atwater, for 81 %, and the crowd
dispersed. - -a4 GAHCoN.
