A STUDY IN HEAVY ORDNANCE, as seen in
the Centennial Exhibition at Philadelphia,
is published in another column, and will be
found both accurate and interesting At a
time when the great fighting nations Of the
world are spending hundreds of thousands
in perfecting their great guns it is some
what discreditablo to America that the best
our service has to show is that antiquated
monster, the twenty-inch smooth bore Rod
man gun, which throws spherical shot.
Many attempts have been made, and with
fair success, of converting this class OF
smooth bores into rihed guns by providing
them with steel Innings, but the expert
ments have not been tried on a large scale
or with the heaviest guns. We hope that
our legislators will do something to advance
our condition in. this respect
The New York herald., 1876-11-10

The INDIANS. The column under General
Crook, which has been organized with the
object of making winter campaign against
the hostile Sioux, ought to give good ac-
count Of itself. Great care seems to have
been shown in fitting it for the work before
it--work that has been considerably simpli-
fed by the surrender Of the Cheyennes to
General Miles. There will, however, be
plenty of opportunity offered to the men and
officers of Crooks command to show their
mettle and render important services to the
country by settling forever this Indian
question. We hope General Crook will
have better success in the present campaign
than in his summer operations. We en-
tirely agree with the praise bestowed by the
General on the troops who accompanied
him during the arduous campaign on the
Big Horn and Yellowstone They merited
oil the good their commander can say Of
them, but little more foresight on the part
of General Crook would have spared them
many Of the hardships which they suffered.
It is to be hoped that no moro rash ventures
will be made.

party that suffers has abundant time to col
lect evidence, and as Congress will be in
session two months before the electoral
votes are counted there will be no
difficulty in bringing the evidence to
the attention Of the only body which has
any authority to make it basis of action.
Redress and relief can come only from Con-
gress, which has the sole power Of deciding
in what manner the votes shall be counted
and on what grounds any can be excluded
Congress will act with the eyes of the
country upon them under the pressure Of
a potential public opinion. which will find
voice in the press and be brought to bear
with mighty force if it shall appear that
there are good grounds for complaint.
If the existing rules are inadequate it is
in the power of Congress to substitute
new and better ones. If the precedents
cannot be safely or equitably followed
Congress is not bound by former
precedents. 1t is within its legiti-
mate and acknowledged authority to
pass law or adopt joint resolution which
will be fair and just to both parties, and the
pressure of public opinion will not per-
NIT Congress to give its sanction to q
manifest fraud and cheat the people
out of a result legally attained by their
votes. The Presidential election will not
he decided by the mere returns, but by
the action Of Congress in making
rules for preventing dishonest re-
turns from deciding the result. What
the people may do in this period Of sus-
pense and excitement will amount to
nothing What they may say to Congress
after the Electoral Colleges have acted may
be relied on for preventing attempts to null
lily the popular will.

An Exciting Day.

Yesterday was a day such as the American
people have not experienced since the year
1860. Only the excitement incident to the
rising passions which reached their acme in
the bloodiest civil war of modern times can
be compared to the turmoil of doubt that
stirred the whole nation over the disputed
result of the Presidential election. At
nearly all great centres business was sus-
pended. In front of the HERALD Office o
great crowd waited all day, scanning with
breathless impatience the returns that were
posted on the bulletins as fast as received.
This crowd changed from moment to mo-
ment. fed constantly by the great channels
that converge here, and for the greater part
Of the day was SO dense that vehicles went
up and down Broadway only in single file,
while frequently the street was obstructed
entirely. At night the throng was in
creased, if anything, and thousands fingered
until after midnight, cheering at the slightest
parties In q less degree similar fact was
experienced ut other newspaper Offices. De-
spatches Of inquiry poured in upon us all
day from all parts Of the country, indicating
that fever heat prevailed everywhere over
the great uncertainty. In the cars, in the
streets. in the restaurants, wherever men are
found in promiscuous groups, it was notice
able that their ordinary demeanor was
changed the conversational gave place to
the declamatory tone, and every utterance
was emphasized with vigorous gesticulation.
This deep excitement was not due merely to
the uncertainty of some States Not word
was heard in the streets that could be dis
torted to imply any passionate discomfort
with fair result, whatever it might be. But
as Florida seemed to become more and more
hopeless for the Democrats, and the proba-
bility rose that the result would turn upon
the vote of Louisiana, the feeling of distrust
in the Board which has to act upon the re-
turns in that State spre1A dismay on every
hand. The apprehension that the decision
of the nation might be perverted in one State
by the machinery which had already covered
such grossly fraudulent transactions startled
all. For the first time people experienced
how great and how immediate is the inter-
est that every State has in the honest organi-
zation Of every other State; and it was recog-
nized that the nation at large might have oc-
casion to repent bitterly the apathy with
which it has contemplated the oppression Of
Louisiana
The New York herald., 1876-11-10

WASHINGTON. as might be expected, is
deeply excited about the chances and possi-
BILE mischances of the Presidential election.
Our correspondents there send us full ac-
count of what is said and done by leading
men, and our New Orleans correspondent
sends a report of conference to be held in
Washington at once by leading republicans,
under the auspices of Senator West, to con-
slider the condition of the election results in
these leading republicans to remember that
Senator West is hardly the man to win pub
lie confidence in the North for any decision
which he may be supposed to have in
auenced
The New York herald., 1876-11-10

SHHBunDNa IN New York is unhappily
almost among the things of the past. A re-
view Of the causes which have led to the
decay of this industry here is published
elsewhere. The blow that American COM
merce received during the war of the rebel
lion from tho English cruisers has never
been entirely recovered from. The Ameri-
can mercantile marine is. however, slowly
creeping up; but New York does not share
in the revival. Capital seeks the cheapest
market, and the ship carpenters have de-
cided that that must be looked for at other
ports.
The New York herald., 1876-11-10

The WEATHER. yesterday high pressure
prevailed on the Pacific coast and over all
the region east of the Mississippi River ex.
cept in New York and New England,
whence the storm of the 7th is slowly pass
ing northeastward. The highest pressure
is in the Southwest. A storm centre is
slowly developing in the Northwest, with q
high temperature, the thermometer at Fort
Sully, Dakota, registering yesterday after
noon seventy degrees 1t is probable that
this storm will reach our meridian by Sun.
day next we will in any case feel its influ.
ence by that time. Light rain, due to tho
contact of the two areas of high and low
pressure eastward Of the lakes, has pre-
vailed from Toledo, Ohio, to the North At
lantic coast. Snow has fallen at Saugeen,
Mich, but at other points partly cloudy OF
clear weather has been experienced. Morn
ing temperatures in the Gulf and South At
lantic States have been low and those of
the Northwest have fallen below freezing
point. The weather in New York to-day
will be slightly warmer and partly cloudy OF
clear
