TMDEN and Hendricks were nom.
mated for President and Vice Presi.
dent by the Democratic National Con
vention, held at st. Louis last week
With such names on the ticket, we
heave no doubt in the world that our
party will be the winning one at the
coming November election. We are
sure of this, but to make assurance
doubly sure, we would call on every
true Democrat who reads this to march
TO the polls and manfully cast his vote
for Tilden and Hendricks, with the
firm conviction that his vote will win
the victory.

Editor Herald:
Not seeing anything in ~our paper
from this section, / will write you L
few lines, and if you think they will
be interesting to your readers please
publish. Our school closed at the
above named house on the Ord of
June. L was a spectator and was
much pleased with the proceedings on
that day the school was closed in good
order, the neighbors gave the teacher
miss S. S. Taylor 4 splendid dinner,
Of which the children partook with Il
good relish and satisfaction. Before
and after eating they marched and
sang some very appropriate songs, af-
ter which the children delivered and
recited some very good pieces, and the
teacher delivered a good address. In
short / would say that her school was
a success, all seems well pleased with
the way the school was conducted.
The exercises closed with prayer, by
the Rev. r. G. Taylor.
CLOSING ADDRESS BY THE TEACHER.
Friends, Patrons and Pupils, this
evening our school closes and we will
separate to mingle together no more as
teacher and pupils. A train of thought
course through my mind when l look
around on the people assembled here
and think that on the morrow there
will be no hurry and hustle to be
oft to school, no pleasant greeting from
the pupils who are endeared to me by
the ties of friendship, no, other scenes
will claim your attention and mine
yet be they ever so stirring my mind
will often return to this place, AND
dream, or imagine that L am with you
again, your bright rosy faces around
me and | experimenting your studies.
Yes, memory shall wait me Oh breezcs
of love TO your presence again, and
though L am absent you will never be
forgotten. | am proud to say that
our school has been a successful one.
those of you who were so far behind
in your studies will be able to go Oh
with the advanced classes, this ought
to be great encouragement to you, and
now let Inc impress one thought upon
your minds and that is stop not until
you have acquired good education,
do not lay aside your books when you
go home and wait for another school
to begin, but study over what you
have learned and try how much more
you can add to this. And now to you
my patrons. will say few words.
return my heartfelt thanks for your
kindness to-day. and believe me it will |
he long remembered Your kindness
during the entire session will never be |
forgotten. / have used my best efforts
toward the advancement of your chill
dren; and | humbly hope 1 have sue
ceeded. And now my pupils, l will
address you i'll closing. The world |

their projection mny DO necessary to prevent

been agreed npon by tho Secretary Of War
and communicated to Gen. AuouR. The
necessity Of this precaution haa grown to bo
10 urgent Al to admit Of no delay. In South
Carolina, the only way to reach tho negroes
is to hold large meetings at central points,
for 1t Is we'll understood that no Repub-
lican will b permitted to visit them
upon the plantations. The Democratic
white-liners have adopted system-
attic course for breaking up Republican
meetings by appearing on tho ground in
force and demanding division Of tha time
for speaking-an impudont, outrageous de-
msud which they enforce by formidable mr.
guments in tho shape of shotguns and rc-
volverz. Tho object Ia to break Up tie
meetings and frightsn the negroes, md It
never fails to result in this way. A company
Of soldiers stationed conveniently near would
have wholesome effec. In convincing tho
Confederate bandits that ths right to hold
political maetinga is not restricted to any
particular party or shade Of complexion.
Tho aamo condition Of Affairs exists In many
other sections Of the South, and the order

AA6 3AVONAAAVN We NVhA,
The anthracite coal business has sustained
a shook from which 1t con hardly recover by
any ro-establishment Of monopoly or by any
now combination. Now York paper sug-
gests, and with evident truth, tint there is
no moro reason for combination to keep up
the prico Of coal thnn there ia Of petroleum.
The prioo Of petroleum haa boen reduced
yoar after year by tho inorense Of production,
aud tho producers have found in tho in.
creased salea, because Of the rcducod prices,
compensation. Tho anthracite coal COM
panies have never permitted this. They havo
managed formany yonrsto control tho produc-
ton, and thereby SECURE the highest prices nt
which tho coal could be sold, Tho combina-
ton Of 1872 embraced control Of all tho
large anthracite producers. Tic only two
transportation companies not also coal pro-
t1ucers, by which tho coal could find It's way
to market, were included in the combination,
mud thus the amount Of coal to be moved to
market and sold was limited. At this very
time tho capacity Of each Of tho four dis
tricts In which this coal Is found was equal
to the whole amount of coal actually sold.
Tho mining companies therefore worked
only at intervals. In. from three to fvo
months tho mines could produce oil the coal
needed for salc in the whole year. This
combination having broken, the large num-
E,hor Of individual owners Of coal lands may
now produce coal, and, selling in competi-
tion with the large producers, tho price Of
coal, like that Of petroleum, will be governed
BY the Law Of supply and demand. The
combination adopted monthly scale Of
prices at which coal should be sold this was
done on the 1st Of August, but tho break
down followed, and within the month the
coal Of two CONCERNS was sold ut auction.
The prices fixed by the combination aud
those at which the coal sold compared as
follows.

DEMOCRATIC FAILURE IN NEW YORK.
A combination OF fraud aud faiuro ia about
as abjact condition as can we'll be imagined,
md this Is the present result Of tho desper-
nte efforts tic Democrats havo made to in
suro carrying New York State for TrlpgN.
There is no doubt that SEYMOUR was the
most popular candidate for Governor TINT
could have been presented to tho Now York
Democrats. Yet ho was notorious Rebel
sympathizor, the Repudiation candidate of
tho Democrats for President In 1868, and tho
chief beneficiary of the most unbtushing
frauds ever committed in his ;State Per-
hapa these aro the reasons for his Democratic
popularity, At alt events, 1t waa recognized
throug ghout the Stato TINT le was the only
man who could unite the yarious elements
OF tha Democracy that were disatfected by
TupES's nomination at St. Louis, and WHO
could give the Democrats reasonable hope
for carrying New York But 1t was also
known that SEYMOUR Is not particularly
friendly to Gov. T11nEN, that le did not
desire. T11pEN's nomination, md that ho
would not take m active part in the cam
paigu unloss 1t wero forced upon him. Gov.
T11pEN, with IN oyerweening confidence in
his own power, resolved to toerce SEYMOUR
into personal cooperation. To this end the
nomination was thrust upon tho sick and
djsgruntled politician who sat moping ut
Utica. And still SEYMOUR wo,1ld not accept.
Then Mr. TtLpga cauBed his agents to noti-
fy the Convention, which .latl adjourned
over day to await the decision, that SEY-
ILL.,
lie. There was not 80 much % tue shadow
Of protext for tho statement. The men
WHO mado It, as we'll ns TtLpEN who inspired
1t, knew it TO bo falso. but tbs lie lastcd
over day; anil the Convention adjourned.
There was double purpose In this fra,d Of
T1LpxA's. 1Io hoped that tho adjournment
of the Convention in tle belief that
SEYMoun had accepted would bully tho
unwilling aud sulking candidate into terms.
In compliance with this policy tho Albany
argus, Mr. T1LpEN's home organ, told thu
Democrats they must vote for SEYMOUR
whether lie accepted OF not, and the New
York World and other organ-grinaers took
up and echoed tho refrain. This would have
auitel TlLpEN hest Of all for, II SEYMOUR
could have been used to curry tie Htato, and
should refuse to serve In case Of his election,
DoAsuE1AKa, the candidate for Lieutenant
Governor, would have succeeded TO this
place, and DoasuR.MKn is TlLpEa's special
faototum. lut 1t was found that this would
not work. Then 1t was T,Lpxs'a desire that
the candidate should DO named by the State
Central Committee, whom T1IpEN controls.
But In this ht has also been disappointed,
