A Washington special to the Cincinnati
Tines, December 7, says:
rhe Democratic az we'll as Republicans
sre greatly astonished at the action of
Governor Grover, of Oregon, yesterday, in
giving . certificate of election to one of the
Democratic electors and withholding it
from the Republican who was elected. The
matter is freely discussed everywhere TO-
day, and prominent Democrats say frankly
that they do not believe Tilden will be will
ing to accept vote obtained in this man
ner. Other Democrats, who appear to
know the inside object to be obtained, say
counted, but do expect to compel the
Senate to consent to 60 back of the face
of the certificates of the electoral votes
and investigate the matter. By this
means they hope to bring up the cases of
South Carolina, Florida and Louisiana.
Leading Republicans, whose opinions were
asked, said they did not believe that any
trouble would arise in consequence of the
action of the Governor of Oregon: that the
law was on the side of the two Republican
electors, and they had simply complied
with it's provisions in declaring vacancy
and then proceeding to fill it. The Senate
would take no notice of the pretended re-
turn of votes cast, sent here by Cronin, but
would open and count the votes returned by
the regularly elected electors, and the first
named return would be signed altogether.
The following was received this morning
by Secretary Chandler:
''SALEM, Ore gon, December 6, 1876.
"The Governor refused all the Rspub.
licans certificates, but gave all three to Gro.
min, Democrat. Our electors met, filed the
Watts vacancy, and gave three votes for
Hayes and attached q certificate of the vote
n1n nhk <lo ~
State. to the returns for Washington. Ev.
erything was properly done. The Govern
or's certificate can not be obtained. Cronir
used them all in organizing set of Demo
cratic pretended electors, who cast two
votes for Hayes and one for Tilden.
GEORGE A. STEEL,
~. M. COGLAN."
Senator Mitchell says that he knows tht
two men substituted for the regularly
elected Republican electors by Cronin, tht
Democrat who held the certificate signeG
by Governor Glover, and that both arr
staunch Democrats, who voted for Hayes
under orders.

The Bastile,s Uudersrouud Galleries.

Many persons are visiting just now the
curious underground passages brought to
light by the demolition of various old build.
ings in the neighborhood of the Bsstile for
the opening OF the new Boulevard Henri
Quatre. The foundation of the old strong
hold of Jacques Ceur, the walls of which
we're thrown down, leave their bases in
tact. These old walls, built of enormous
blocks of stone, are nearly two yards thick.
and even thicker in some parts. In the ad-
joining Rue Castex are two sets of subter-
ranean galleries, one below the other, run
ming out in various directions, and none
now knows whittier. These galleries are in
tercepted by the foundations of the modern
houses that have been built upon them; but
many OF these have now been pulled down
to find room for new thOroughtares. and
people can 60 considerable distances, with
the aid of candles, through these gloomy
passages. 1t is probable that these gal
leries served for sending soldiers private Y

THIRD EDITIO N


THEY ARM THEMSELVES FOR FIGHT
NEGRO.
The Bird Guards, Saturday night,
went to New Castle, on the steamer
Alice Preston, to attend a Republican
meeting, and, according to the state
meht OF one of the members, nearly all
went armed with revolvers.
During the stay at New Castle, sew
eral ARRAYS occurred between the
Guards and few drunken roughs from
Delaware city ard some small BOYS, One
man was struck on the head by an axe
in the hands of one of the Guards.
a The feverish troubles eliminated
st the wharf, on the departure of the
teamer. by several stones from the
boys and valley of pistol shots from
the Bird Guards. On the boat young
man named Handbook had his head Sc.
verely cut and VIM Lewis was bruised
on the head by a stone. On the shore
negro was shot in the arm, by a
bullet from one of the pistols used by
his Republican friends.
Guards went over "spoiling for a
fight" and armed themselves with
pistols for his purpose. The citizens
of New Castle however. to their credit
be it said, gave them no excuse OIL
provocation, and only the antics of g
few drunken rowdies furnished item
with pretense for discharging vol
ley, the only effect of which was to
wound one of their own party men

Solution Of the Protoxide of Iron, when
vitalizes, purifes, and enriches the blood.
Dyspeptics and those suffering from
Chronic Diseases read the following:
From Rev John Gaegory Pastor of the Yves
leyan Methodist Church, at Pittston, lu-
zerene Co., Pa.
My dear Sir--Having at various times,
p arsonally, and in my own and other
families. tested the great value Of the
medicine called Peruvian Syrup Or Pro-
tected Solution of Protoxide of Iron, l
most cheerfully recomend it, especially
to those who are suffering from dyspeptic
and nervous disorders. AS a reliable
and powerful Alternative, it is, think
unsurpassed; and as a tonic, free from
all the Objectionable features Of alcohol
| remedies, it is most efficient auxiliary
| to the temperance cause. One Of the
| greatest hincerances to the temperance
reform at present is as I think, the medi-
cal use of alcoholic stimulants. What
ever may be argued as to their necessity
in certain cases, we have, in the Peru
Wan Syrup, safe and efficient substitute
for those dangerous remedies. This
testimony is given unsolicited, with the
hope that some who are not yet ac-
quainted with the valuable properties of
the medicine may be induced to give it a
trial. Yours truly.
| JOHN GREGORY.
Caution.-Be sure you get the Peru
Wan Syrup (not Peruvian Bark. Sold
