THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION.

ARTICLE IA, Section A of the Con-
stitution, reads as follows:
THE VALIDITY OF THE PUB
Lie DEBT OF THE UNITED
STATES. AUTHORIZED BY LAW
INCLUDING DEBTS INCURRED
FOR PAYMENT OF PENSIONS
AND BOUNTIES FOR SERVICES
In SURPRISING INSURREC-
TON OR REBELLION, SHALL

NEITHER THE UNITEDSTATE

REBELLION 4 GAINS2' THE
UNITED STATES, OR ANY
CLAIM FOR THE LOSS OR
EMANCIPATION OF ANY
SLAVE; BUT ALL SUCH DEBTS,
OBLIGATIONS AND CLAIMS
SHALL BE HELD ILLEGAL AND
VOZD."
The above provision ofthe Consti-
tuition forever disposes of ths pretense
that there are any versions in the Unit
ed States who expect to secure the
payment of the war debt Of the South
em Confederacy.
In order to alter the above Article
(14) Or any other in the Constitution,
it is necessary to have two-thrds
vote of Congress, and a three-fourths
vote of the people Of the whole coun-
try. Away with this nonsense, then,

THE oCToCER ELECTIONS
Every day adds to the force of the
demonstration Of Democratic suprem-
acy afforded by the elections this
month. The triumph in Indiana was
equivalent to triumph in the nation,
and the gain of SO electoral votes over
~, and 225,O00 popular votes, places
the result in November beyond all
question. OF seven states that have
already voted, which cast their elector-
al votes for Grant in 1872, four are
now Democratic. There is nothing
sectional about our success, because
the ratio of gains has been maintained
North as well an South, and extended
to the extreme Eastern and strong
Republican Statee, as we'll as to the
naturally Democratic States of the
South In the face of this fact, it is
useless for the Republicans to pretend
that the contest depends upon any
one State. The most prominent Of
the Republican leaders admit this.
Mr.. Butler says: Mr.. Tilden's cleo
ton is not improbable. The leading
Republican organ of Indiana gives up
the fight, and roundly abuses the par
ty managers for the policy they have
adopted. Senator Morton has aban-
doned Indiana for California, and |
Harrison is coming to New York to
speak.
THE STRUGGLE OF DESPAIR.
There is evidently going to be the
same concentrating of the whole Ad-
ministration army, in this State and
New Jersey, as they were in Indiana
two weeks ago. But concentrating
against the Democracy of New York,
is attacking the Gibralter OF the De
mocracy, and the attempt to carry the
stronghold will only result in the ut
ter destruction of the attacking force.
The truth is, that the Republican
leaders have abandoned hope. They
see the impossibility of beating Tilden
i'll this State, and they cannot elect
Hayes without the vote of New York.
The betting is now t,co to one in favor
of Tilden, and at the pool rooms last
evening, Republicans were seen bet
ting on Tilden's success, and giving
those odds. There is virtually a panic
in the Republican camp. New YORK
State viii give Tilden seventy thou
sand majority, and all those who were
holding off until the contest in Indi-
ana was decided, will now vote the
Democratic ticket.
THE BAYoNET ORDER IN FULL FORCE
Already twelve companies of artil-
lery, armed as infantry, and two com
panies of infantry, have been sent
from this point to South Carolina IN
compliance with the orders of Gamer
on, the Secretary of War, under au-
thority of Grants proclamation. The
whole Atlantic coast is absolutely de-
nuded Of defenders to supply suffi-
Gent number Of troops to control the
South Carolina election. A short
time ago there was a call for the same
troops to meet our savage enemies on
the plains, but the War Department
declared that not another man could
be spared from the coast defence. and I
now we see the men who could not I
