total destruction of the party that Was
called into active and triumphant life by
the aggressions of human tlavey and the

WHAT GOVERNOR CURTIN SAYS.

HE BELIEVES THAT LOUISIANA CANNOT
BE RETURNED FOR HAYEs-THE VOTE
AND THE TESTIMONY OVERWHELMING.
Governor Curtin arrived in Phfladel-
phia late Sunday evening and is stopping
at the Girard House. He returned from
New Orleans several days ago, and has
been in New York until yesterday. In
answer to the inquiry of the Times report
er as to what the probable result viii be
in Louisiana, he said that he did not be-
lieve it possible to count it for Hayes.The
vote, he said, as returned, is not disputed;
it gives Tilden from $500 to 10000 ma
jority, over 10000 for five of the electors,
and the testimony from all trustworthy
sources was uniform that the election was
the most peaceable ever held in the STATE
and the only actual intimidation was, to
prevent colored men from voting the
Democratic ticket. He said that the so
luton of the colored question was nat
ural one. The colored people of that
State are assessed for overtwenty millions
of property, and they are greatly interested
in improving their administration, as 'op-
pressive taxes and prostration Of business
fall as heavily upon them as upon the
whites. He said that many Of the most
intelligent colored men of the State had
called on the Tilden commissioners, and
their statements agreed that the race had
voluntarily voted the Democratic ticket,
where they had not been restrained by
the desperation of the white and colored
politicians. t7f

H-yes and refuse 10 Complete the
RETURN.
From the Philadelphia Times.
The Supreme Court of South Carolina
is composed entirely of Republicans who
cordially supported Hayes, and they
have ,iudicial]y directed such computa-
ton Of the vote as will expose errors, ii
any there are. Why should the return
board shrink from such trial? Have
they miscounted the State for Hayes? If
SO, the country wants to know it, and the
refusal of the board to obey the court, as
to the vote for electors, casts the strongest
suspicion upon the integrity of the re-
turn. All can understand why the board
refused to count the vote for State officers
as directed by the court, for that would
have defeated three of the five members
of the board, and they made haste, to
count and certify themselves elected; but
what is wrong about the Presidential
vote that the order of three Hayes Re
publican judges cannot be obeyed RESPECT

TWEED VS.. THE WHISKY RING.-The
compulsory return of Tweed to his for
mer place of confinement is in sharp con-
trast to the fate of the whisky ring rogues
who, after short period of imprison-
ment, are restored to liberty by executive
interposition. Though Tweed had got
far away from the scene of his villainies,
he mad not got so far as to escape retribu-
ton. There was no New York executive
whose pardoning power could be relied on
to defeat the ends of justice. Consequent
ly Tweed, after his brief trip to Europe,
goes back to his old prison quarters, and
is not likely to see the light of liberty
again as long as he lives. The United
States authorities, which brought him
back, cannot open the doors for New
York criminal as they can for federal
criminal, and Tweed, when he thinks of
the wholesale exodus of the whisky ring
from Western prisons, will be filled with
self-reproach that he had not victimized
the general government instead of the
State of New York. Honest people,
however, will be glad that in these times,
public rogues of any class can be made to
suffer for their misdeeds, and would re-
joice if the same incorruptible integrity
which has compelled Tweed to abide the
consequences of his crimes were installed
at Westinghouse rs to "let no guilty man
escape"

The War Debt.

Said Hon &c. ). Blackbu
democratic member of Congress
from the Kentucky district for
merly represented by Henry
Clay, in a speech to the Demo-
Gratis of Reading;
81 do not complain of, the
creation of war debt, but the
Republicans have made it too
big. Instead of making it one
billion they make it three bill
lions. 1t is impossible for a f.
mite mind to have a proper con-
ception of the amount. Since
Jesus Christ was born the clock
has not clicked off one billion of
minutes, and yet the republican
party has made a debt of three
billions of dollars. With such
a record staring them in the
face how can they have the eff
ffontry to come before the A.
merican people and ask for a
continuance in rower? / wish
every man in this land who is
to vote could make a
pilgrimage to Washington and
stay there. thirty days to wit
ness the extravaganza and seeth-
ing corruption prevailing there.

Usher of a Republican paper at
Selma, Ala, made out bill for
$4,000, for printing proposals for
carrying the mails i'll the State,
and that afterwards, at the sug-
gestion' of Judge Martin, sixth
auditor, Charles Pelham, member
of Congress, and Gov. Parsons,
speaker of the Alabama House of
Representatives, he might le-
galIy charge more, be withdrew
this bill, and raised it to S., 700.
The amusing part of the transac-
ton is, however, that the printing
cost him only ninety dollars, be
having sub let the work to a JOB

groomsman in corresponding
wrong places. The clergyman,
not noticing the mistake, went
on with the ceremony, and be-
gan marrying the bridesmaid to
the bridegroom, when the bride
served an ''injunction" on him
by exclaiming that she was the
marrying party. The mistake
being remedied, the clergyman
made another attempt, and the
performance went smoothly a.
long until it came for the BRIDE
groom to produce the ring,
which was essential to the COM
pletion Of the ceremony. But
when that gentleman felt in his
vest pocket it wasn't there; in
the other not there; in the
trowsers pocket, not there; and
then he feltto the bottom of the
remaining pocket, and finally
exclaimed: ''Well, sure, there
is a hole in my pocket, and the
ring slipped down into my boot" "
And the only way to finish the
ceremony was for the bride
groom to sit down, pull off his
boot, and put the ring where
it ought to have gone, and walk

The. Way the Chinese
Do It.
San Francisco Call.

A San Francisco Call.
As an illustration of the man
Iner in which this people are rap
idly usurping the trades, it may
be mentioned that a member of
the firm of Tong Wo, an intelli-
gent Chinese merchant and a
prominen. member of the Yung
EWo Company, informed our re-
porter but few days ago that the
company had twelve thousand
coolies underit its charge, five thou
sand Of which plumber are en-
gagged in cigar making, three thou
sand are boot, shoe and slipper
makers, and about two thousand
are shirt and clothing makers,
and the remaining two thousand
are composed of laundrymen, do
mestics, fishermen, vegetable ped
dlers, etc A good story is told
of a man who resided here a few
years ago, and who never studied
political economy. He opened an
establishment for the manufacture
iof bird cages, and after a while
did athriving business. Soon af.
ter a smart looking Chinaman
came along and solicited employ.
ment, offering his services for fiE
ty cents per day less money than
was paid to the white man then
in his employ. Tue, cage.maker
and politicrl economist jumped ct
the offer, and discharged the white
man then in his employ. The
cage-maker and political econo-
mist jumped at the offer, and dis
charged the white man, satisfying
whatever scruples of conscience
he might have by making the
Chinaman dance around and make
things fly. When the meek:eyed
celestial had mastered the myste-
ries of the trade, he astonished
his employers by demanding sal.
ary equal to the one received by
his predecessor, the white man. =
The demand was denied with
some show of Indignation, and
the cage-maker showed his con-
tempt for Chinese labor by kick
ing him out of the shop. Within
a week afterward an establish.
ment similar to bis own was o.
pened on the opposite side Of the
street by the discharged coolie,
and bird cages were sold very
cheap. The cage maker became
bankrupt, as did several cigar
makers who tried the same exper-
iment and met the same fate.

Somebody dropped some quick
