At last we get the facts regarding
the trouble a; Cainboy, South Caro-
lima. Cainboy was the place designa
ted tor meeting. Ii was arranged
that the Republicans and Democrats
should speak, turn aud turn about.
One o'CounOr, Democratic candidate
for Congress was accompanied by
about 50 men, all armed with pistols
They went up on boat from Charles
ton. When they arrived On the
ground they found force of about 800
colored men armed with guns. These
were old fowliDg pieces and private
property. When Jeryey had con-
cluded his speech, Mckinley got up to
speak for the REPUBLICANS. He sud
denly discovered an armed force of
Democrats marching toward the stand.
These formed i'll line near the Speak
ers stand. He gave the alarm. The
Democrats fired, killing one co!ored
man and wounding many others.
Then the blacks scattered. spranS for
their guns, posted themselves behind
trees and returned the fire, each man
for himself. They killed three oltheir
assailants outright and wounded a
dozen or more. They also had sew
eral killed and wounded. This seems
to be the first victory for the blacks.
BY and by they will learn to fight.

OUR CHANCES IN NEW YORK

We believe that We shall carry New
York by a handsome majority. We are
sustained in this belief by the following
from the New York Herald. That pa
ger has of late evinced a decided aux.
isty for the success of the Democracy;
but it's fears if not its csndor compel it
to talk in the following strain:
The Democratic party has never. Of
late years, had majority in this State
outside of the city, except in 1874, which
WAS the exceptional year of the "tidaI
wave" The whole drift Of things shows
that this is not such year. Bat even
with the great advantage Of the surpris.
ing tidal wave Mr.. TiIden would have
had bat a lean majority in 1874 apart
from the city Of New York. In that
year his majority ia the city was about
$4,000. and in the State ct large only
about 1000 more. We have no doub,
at all that this gear the Republicans
will have large majority outside of the
city, and the only chance Of carrying the
State for I'ilden lies in consolidating ana
streng, heping the city Democracy. Last
year the Democratic majority in the city
was only $4,000. and the Democratic
majority in the State fell to about ii, 900
from 50, 900 the preceding year. I! the
stay home Republican vote had come
to the polls, AS il is certain 20 DO this
year, the Democratic party wonld have
lost the State last year by a large MA
jority. In 1873 the Democratic majority
in the city was 81 600 and the Democrats
carried the State by only $500, With the
aid of a large Liberal Republican vote,
which has now gone back TO It's old 20
litical associations. The bait end. 50 70

John Morrissey has withdrawn by
letter from the anti Tammany Associ-
alton. The feeling on the receipt of
the letter was that Morrissey should
be expelled from the convention. The
chairman informed him by letter that
his resignation was accepted with
great pleasure, and it was well rid of
one who was engaged in conspiracy
and holding secret conference with
the enemy, especially with John Kelly
with a view of surrendering the Or
ganization of Tammany Hall.

BY keeping the road free from

made available from one end Of the
year to the other. Any number Of
boats could ply between Bismarck
and Benton for at least six months
Of the year, or as long as the river
remained unobstructed by iee,. and
during this time, if the business
demanded it, enough freight could
be landed at Bent. n to keep the
road employed during the entire
winter. It IS hardly necessary to
say that this route could convey
/ freight to and from the Territory
much cheaper than a route all rail

ready been furnished which leaves
no room for doubtupon this point.

John Bright is said to have re-.
fused to drink to the health Of THE
Empress of Indie" at a recent ban
quet, upon which the Prince Of
Wales is also said to have asked an
explanation. We hope this will
not set the old reformer back any
lin his own esteem or in that of the
people. We think it will not. The
dying Golden said that John Bright
had another reform bill left inside
of him, and if this Indian empress
question be brought up Extensively
IN ali attack Oh such a popular god
Of the people as John Bright, it
may result il a decided snubbing
for the Guelphs, which was only
avoided before by the country's
personal respect for the queen.
There is no such feeling for the
prince Of Wales, and the worst man
he can possibly exercise his friction
upon is John Bright.
