NOTES.

Gov Lippitt Of Rhode Island, says that that
state will return four Hayes electors and the
fact that Mr. Corliss, one of'the electors voted
for, was centennial commissioner, will have no
effect on the result.
Tileen's official majority in Virginia Zone
county not included) will be A, pa There will
be contest on tue result OF the second aud
fourth congressional districts.
The Democrats have selected John NJ.
Palmer, Lyman Trumbull, William Byton,
Geo. p. Smith and P. 81. Watson to witness
the proceedings of the Louisiana returning
board.
The official vote of Maryland gives Tlden
1879 majority. In the 9th district l.. E. Nc
Comas has majority over Walsh, and the GER
tihcate will be given to him.
The New York Mail Saturday had his
doubtful piece OF news: Sow Tilden is re-
ported to have received despatch this fore
noon from prominent northern Democrats no W
in the south, stating that Florida, South Caro-
lima and Louisiana had undoubtedly gone
against him. Upon receiving this nfor u al ion
it is understood that rilden gave up the fl ght
and admitted Hayes to be the next Preside ut.
A despatch from New Orleans to the Com
merclal Advertiser says: sit is generally con-
ceded here by both parties that the board will
count in Hayes, in which event the Democrats
will take the case to Congress. Wallace, Noyes
and Kasson of the Republican delegation, left
here ia haste this forenoon for Florida
Prominent Republicans are said to ad nit he
discrepancy in the electoral vote in LouIsian a.
but claim that the names of Hayes and Wheel
er on the ticket furnish sufficient evidence of
the intent of the voters, and that the votes
must be counted accordingly. 1t is said that
the Supreme Court of the state will deliver an
opinion in conformity with these views before
the vote is counted. The Hon. Geo. W. Julian
and Gov. Curtin. when apprised of this inten-
ton, denied the right of the court to control the
acting of the board, and said that no names
can be counted in an election except those vot-
ed for.

Tilden's majority in IL Southern states 42s, 800

Tilden's majority in II Southern states. 42S, 500
Tilden's net majority in the Union. 80. 100000
From this it will be seen that more than 400,
600 of Tilden's majority came from states which
abolished slavery because they were compelled
to do SO, and many of who's citizens lament
the bonds which bind them to the Union. In
addition to these the 100000 votes in the imme-
date vicinity of New York city, almost " thin
SIGHT of Trinity spire, along the Hudson, in
New Jersey, and in Fairfield County, Conn,
combined to give TIlden a preponderance of
the votes that were cast These last were inn
migrants or children of immigrants, and,
whether there is any significance IN the consid-
Grafton or not, it is unquestionably true that
Gov Hayes has received decided majority OF
the votes of Americau-born citizens.

A strasegical Defeat.
From the N. Y. Tribune.

From the N. Y. Tribune. -.r.
Mr.. Blaine won tactical victory on the
Amnesty bill. He should beware lest it
prove strategical defeat. 1t was brilliant
parliamentary fence, but it was not states
manship. The country does not want the
healing wounds of the var torn open
afresh. Grant all Mr.. Blaine says abon,
Jefferson Davis docs it follow that, hav-
ing refused to try, sentence and. punish
him, We ought to keep on making faces at
him ? Is it not better, since he is not to be
punished, that he should not be distin-
gnished? Why not let him 30 with the
common herd, and thus award him the
only punishment we have left at our COM
mand-the refusal to make martyr of
him? Mr., Blaine was willing to pardon
Mr.. Davis q year ago. He reported in
favor Of it, and the bill passed with hia
open or silent approval. Why should he
now repudiate his own record, and signal
ize the beginning Of the Centennial year BY
reverting to thoughts of vengeance ana
making speech which could not have
done more TO fan into fame again the
dying embers of the hate and passion OF
our civil war if it had been deliberately
designed for that purpose? Mr.. Blain,
is to-day the most conspicuous candidate in
his party for the Presidency, and the best
Judges incline to think hia chances the best.
But he can throw all away by verv few
such movements. What he has done was
unquestionably smart. 1t appealed
shrewdly but recklessly, to passions which
he knew were easily aroused, to prejudices
which he knew had never died out, to a
feeling all over the country which is sure
to give him instant and approving re.
sponse. But it did not tend to the peace
and harmony which the year should in.
spire and the times demand. 1t tended tc
no good end. 1t was mere cunning parti.
sanship. Mr.: Blaine is always excessively
smart. Let him have care lest the peo.
pie begin to think him too smart.

one Of the noted distillers In this city who
are In the meshes of the Whiskey Ring died
at Patoka, this evening at six o'clock. He
was evidently deranged ell day Sunday and
told HE friends thst he was going to Indian

was merely summoned rs witness in the
further prosecutions of the Ring. He bade
several farewell. At ten O'Clock Sunday
evening he took dose of chloral, and slept
till four o'clock Monday morning when he
awakened, and ct his request bis wife gave
him teasp0onful of chlOral again. At
eight o. clock she tried to awake him, but
he had been stricken with appopl sxy super

was unconscious. He fingered until six

shame. He died broken hearted. m .II
