Tie Next House CT Representatives.

\ corr espondent OF the Cincinnati Gazette.
writing from Washington, say: table Of
the next House as it stands, under the latest
and most reliable returns. has Just been coma
pleted here by the best Republican authori
ty in the city, who has access TO all informa-
ton regarding the result in each District yet
received by the National Committee. He
gives the Democrats l49 and the Republicans
I41. New Hampshire at the worst for the
Republicans, is certain to give them two,
to the Democrats one, in the March election.
which will make $50 Democrats and 143 Re-
publicans. This calculation gives nearly all
the Districts yet classed as doubtful to the
Democrats. The Republicans may have two
more than have been estimated in the above
count from Illinois. two more from Penn
sylyania. and two more from Louisiana. On
the other hand, the Republicans may lose
one in Florida, one in Missouri. and one in
Virginia more than appears i'll the above
count careful study Of all the ihforna-
ton at hand regarding the Districts not yet
officially announced, convinces the authority
compiling the table that it is quite posi-
BILE, though not very probable, tilas the APP
parent Democratic majority may be entirely
overcome: but at the most, the Democrats
will not have seven. and may not have over
three or four majority.

that have been hcdged around them by tho
Democratic party? Their plight is a pitia-
bic one. From Returning Boards and Com
missioncrs OF Election. 10 the Legislature
and the Finance Board, nothing but ruin,
corruption ant. lnismanagement have been
melted out 10 them. Party prejudice and
party tyranny are surely working the de-
strncti3n of the old Commonwealth. The
case is growing mere desperate every day,
and yet the people wiilfully cover up their
eyes and will not look at the ruin that is
facing them. and which they must soon en-
brace.
A party that will not condemn fraud
where it is known to exist within its own
organization. is not capable OF determining
whether it exists elsewhere. Its opinion is
worth nothing, for L is thus shown that par
tizan considerations govern its conclusions.
Especially i, the clamor about frauds
that are not proven in other communities
y mere pretension of virtue, when no word
OF condemnation is uttered against frauds
proven at home.

Woodward will Reveal

NEW YORK. Nov. 95.-The Tribune says
Albert. A. Woodward, OF the old Tammany
ring. who was arrested in Chicago ami
brought here, has, beyond any doubt resolv
Ell to reveal all he knows relative to the
frauds committed against the county and
State. not only in matter Of false vouchers
for building the court house, but in fraudu-
lent elections. His revelations will involve
many Republican us we'll as Democratic Off
cials, and the particulars of the dividends of
The fund raised i'll the court house frauds
will involve scor. OF persons who have hith-
erto been unsupported.
Woodward, rs the manager Of the pool,
WAS entrusted with the custo;ly Of all the
checks which passed between al! the conspi.
rasors, aud these he has carefully preserved.
During his six years of voluntary Danish
ment in other lands the checks remained in
this city. The mal or woman to whom they
were entrusted returned them to him in the
Tombs undisturbed. Not single one was
missing, and the oaths OF more than one
witness in past trials that no such checks ev-
err existed will fall to the ground when Wood
ward takes the stand. Woodward counsel
visited Tweed Yesterday.

The Colored Race.

In noticing the fire that occurred in Har.
risonburg on the night the Tildeni:e.
had their premature and foolish celebration
we stated that it was su5per ted the stables had
been set on fire by some coiored person or per
sons. We have since had conversation with {
4 gentleman in whose veracity we have the
greatest conf lence, and whose opportunities
enabled him to draw fair conclusion rs to the
probabilities tie suspicion. He uuhesitating-
| y stated that there was not the least particle
Of evidence to justify the charg., and that he
was satisfied the fire originated from sparks
from the torches unfortunately carrictl an
whirled around by the enthusiastic and in
spirited Democrats who thronged the streets
i'll every direction. This gentleman informs
US that the conduct Of the colored people du-
ring the evening was very circumspect, onl,
a very few Of them making their appearance
or the streets, because they had been advis-
ed to remove all OCCASION for indiscreet per
sons to precipitate disturbances
When the fire was discovered and the
alarm given, among the most effective and
daring workers were colored men, who rush
ell to the rescue of property from the flames
and that their entire conduct was utterly in
consistent with any other than the most
earnest desire to do well and faithfully their
duty az citizens, having the welfare OF their
neighbors ut heart.
The Commonwealth, published ut ifarri-
sonburg, states that the fire was the result
OF incendiarism, and ntimates that it was
the work OF some colorcd person or persons,
instigated by political luminosity, and that
this spirit is the result of the teaching OF the
negroes by their white leaders. We unhesi-
tatingly pronounce this Il vile SANDER. The
are the peers in every respect, to say the
least,o any equal number OF their political OPP
ponents, and have far higaer ambitions rs citi-
gems OF the State than the miserable tools Of
party, who are Incapable Of reasoning or
| comprel,ending the duties and obligations Of
citizenship There is no fair man who rec
ognzes justice and truth as the rules OF his
conduct. who will not say that the colored
population OF the Valley, take them rs q.
class, do not deserve the highest credit for
their peaceable aud law-abiding disposition.
Here and there is all exception, as there is
in the white race This is the case, notwith-
standing that in every political contest the
btteresu prejudices are cultivated and ex-
pressed against them because they simply
ask to exercise the privileges the law guar
antees to them. Reason, public policy ard
Justice all Unite In condemnins this spirit;
and We are sure it would be better for all
classes, if tolerance and charity would take
the place If prejudice and suspicion.

Boss Tweed

The return Of Wm. N. Tweed to tic
scenes of his early manhood. the triumph of
his matnrer years. and the disgrace of his
closing life. is merely an illustration OF the
truth of the saying BE s1re, your sins will
find you out" Mr.. Tweed had revclcd III
crime for many years, aud ruled with des-
pots rod the political machinery cf New
York and directed it to tlesroobcry OF The
rich, that lie might the more easily have at
his command tl,: mcans to Influence the ig-
norant and impoverished. 1t was this latter
class that Tweed and Tammany courte d
and controlled. + constitutes iEr ruling
power ut the balfs box. 1nder tia, direction
OF ambitious and designing inriI, in New
York city. Tweed WAS !aeisli in his expen-
ditures for tho relief OF the poor, when in the
plcntiende OF almost uncliallenged power he
robbed the rich. With lavish hand he
scattered charities throughout the h;.nnts OF
want and sin, and reape;! his reward At the
ballot box.
Assignitieant OF tlie deep lo.d this Old sin
ner yet has upon this class Of persons. not
wthstandng the exposure Of his great
crimes. his appearance On the wharf as he
pressed the ground of the scene ofhis former
power, was greeted with loud duzzalis for
1.-THE Boss by the throng that gathered to
CATCH glimpse of the once imperial ruler OF
the municipality of the Empire City. Shor.
of authority, hedged around by stupendous
crimes. and secure within the clutch of tn.
officers of the law. with no possibility of dis
pensing favors, set the remembrance of
his former kntlnesses were still flesh with
many who had been the recipients OF them
and who could not withhold an expression
OF their feelings when the porty form Of the
old criminal came in view. 'iIurrah for the
Boss greeted him from hundreds of the by
saunders, and an ovation was only prevented
by the Sudden hurrying off OF the distln-
guishesl prisoner.
Poor OF! man! His i'll gotten gains hare
brought him naught else than trouble, shame
and disgrace. But the end is not yet. 9th
ers almost equally guilty, who have been
screened from exposure by fortuitous cir
ct,mstauces may yet find that the retributions
OF this life cannot be escaped by the fimsy
tinsel of social elevation or the rich gar,i-
ture which wealth provides.
