From the New York Tribune.
Gov. Tilden was at the Democrat
ic committee rooms in the Everett
house yesterday afternoon, in con-
sultation with political friends, and
when he emerged into the main hall
Of the hotel his face betrayed in
tense anxiety, while the gentlemen
who escorted him from the rooms
wore a solemnity of countenance
which appalled, the cluster of Dem
ocrats in waiting for the appearance
of the Presidential candidate. A
sudden silence fell on those present.

Tilden to pass. Few spoke to him.
and many took of their hats and
stood in attitudes expressive of the
deepest sympathy. A feeling I'M
expressed In words, but betrayed
in every outward sign, pervaded the
minds of all that Mr.. Tilden had
lost his heart and was no longer to
be considered a successful candidate
for the Presidency. Il the Govern
or had been carried by in his coffin
there could scarcely have been de-
picted in the faces of the crowd a
more unaffected sorrow and sympa-
thy. AS Mr.. ridden came into the
hall he inquired the latest news of
one or two newcomers, The reply
was that he could yet be sure of

but their leader is a practicipg physi-
clan in the parish, and his assisting
bulldozers are sons of what thew
call the first families. Thousands Of
colored people have been subjected to
these outrages at every election for
attempting to exercise the right of
freemen in the State of Louisiana. II
seems as If the government and the
people of the North had turned a deaf
ear upon US and forgotten US. We do
not ask bread or money. These we
have the muscle and industry to pro-
duce, but we do ask an assurance from
the people of the Nerth that some
method shall be provided for our secu-
rity in the exercise of our rights as

Address Of the COEOred REen of
A-S0tsiana 90 the People of
the Country.
Special Telegram to the Inter Ocesn.
New ORLEANS, La, Nov. 10, re.
To the People Of the United States:
We, the colored people are but a
simple folk, plain and unlettered. but
nevertheless we hope we shall be I'M
derstood. We desire plainly and brief
y TO relate the actual political condi-
ton of oar race in LOuisaua, and to
ask the just people of the North to
render US that moral aid and protec-
ton which our peculiar situation re-
quires. The government clothed us
with the various duties OF American
right to vote, which fact has so incens-
ed the Southern Democrats against us
that they murder Our people and oet-
rage their families alter such beasrly
modes that We dare not relate them in
our unletteFed manner. We are
unable TO cope with the white man
without that backing and moral aid
which IKE Northern people have so
studiOusly withheld from US since the
| war. The most of us have been slaves
and driven like beasts all our younger
days, and the terror Inspired by the
white slave-GriVer from our infancy
| up has made us fear the white man
and know and believe that we are not
his equal in combat. The use OF fire
arms was denied US until after the war.
and we feel our inferiority in their
use when confronted with the heavily
armed, staggering Democrats. Thus
when the issue is reduced to one of
nFRnRd hFNcfElffU 10 has
this Presidential canvass in Louisiana,
our numerical strength counts for
naught against the regularly organic
ed, armed, and drilled White League
Democracy of the State. Their MUIR
ders are more gentlemanly and hu-
name than the other Outrages (sOme of
which must be nameless) which they
have and are this day inficting upon
our people. The whipping of colored
Republicans who know how to read
and write has been carried to such an
extent that the recital of the enormi-
ties would scarce be believed. OF the
signers to this appeal two have been
whipped for refusing co vote the Dem
ocratic ticket at this Presidential cleo
ton. One of these stripped naked
and whipped, is covered with welts and
gashes from head to heel, and escaped
from his fendish tOrmentors through
United States military escort. The
other was taken from his cabin On the
night before the Presidential election
at midnight, and stripped, and whipped
by dozen or more white men, each
taking turns as they became tired,
sometimes three or four whipping at a
time, until his finger nails and two
fingers were whipped off. He was
then left fainting and alone upon the
ground. Next morning the same
Democratic I" bulldozers" marched
him to the polls, the victim so stiff and
sore that every movement of the body
in endeavOring to drag its slow length
along caused the most excruciating
agong, and they compelled him to put
in the ballOt-box Democratic Tilden
ticket with the bleeding stumps of fin
gers their generous chivalry had vet

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 16.-The
official vote of Ohio was canvassed
to-day by Secretary of State, Bell,
in the presence of Coy. Hayes and
James Williams, State Auditor, with
the following result: $50, 757 votes
were cast. Of this number Hayes
received 330,698; Tilden, 323, 1872
Peter Cooper, 3,O57; Green Clay
Smith, 1885, and James B. Walker,
anti-Masonic candidate, rs. Hsyes'
plurality over Tilden, 1851.
Madison, Wis, Nov. 16.-The Of
fetal returns are now in from thir-
ty-five counties, and indicate q ma
jority of about 5000 for the Repub-
lican electoral ticket in the State.
In the returns already received,
however, it is found that by a mis-
take in the official blanks sent out
from the Secretary of States Office
about 800 votes cast for Downs,
Republican elector, have been csrti-
fed to as cast for J. Fl. Minor.
Wsushara county alone cas-. 1850
votes for Downs by this mistake In
the blanks. It is not likely that the
aggregate loss by the mistake will
be sufficiently large to defeat Mr..
Downs, but 1T will make the returns
in his case unpleasantly close.
Hayes carries eighteen northern
States, with I66 electoral votes,
while Tilden carries four northern
States with 65 electoral votes. In
the eighteen States carried by Hayes
his popular majority lie about 237,-
800, while Tilden's in the four States
which he carried, is 1880. Thus 1t
is shown that Tilden's strength and
principal electoral vote are in the
States which were lately in armed
rebellion.

srEAMING FOOD FOR CATTLE.

] think the following gives a
correct idea on the above subject
''If one has considerable quenti-
ties Of coarse or inferior fodder to
work up, and wishes TO make up
for its inferiority by the use of
grain, and if the principal object
is selling milk by measure, with
out special regard to quality, and
If the number of cows kept Is
large, say twenty or more, and
one expects these conditions exist
several years, it will pay to pur-
chace q - good steam boiler and
cook the feed for the cows; but
if the pumberaot animals is small,
the quality Of the very best, as
when the object of feeding is any
thing but making milk for mark
ct, he had better make his stables
as warm and comfortable as pos
sib1e, and feed his hay whole and
raw, rather than incur the expen
Sc and extra labor necessary for

sEEEP IN STORMS.
No good farmer will omit to
provide shed for his sheep to go
under in cold fall and winter
storms, because no animal suffers
so much, when completely drench-
ed with rain or sleet, owing to the
long time after the storm it takes
to dry them thoroughly. It does
seem that some farmers possess
the common attributes of
in the care OF their live
stock, nor brains enough to give
them a knowledge of what is to |
their own interests. Some OF
these men show 3 remarkable
for saving money when
obtained, and it would be, perhaps, |
an impossibility to draw three
cents from some OF them to save
the country from ruin, while they
turn their cattle and sheep into .
field in the dead of winter, with |
no shelter from storms, and feed |
hem from hsy-stack, throwing |
the hay apon the ground to be
