The stoppnge or Business.

Merchants complain of n general stop
page of business, and we beg the poll
ticians to bear in mind that this is a
severe hardship to hundreds Of thou
sands of people all over the country
1t is absurd that we should be made to paw
SO heavily and continuously for the decision
of the question-of little real importance to
the mass of the countrywide shall be the
next President. The people are to-day like
q swarm of bees which has lost its queen.
The doubts, fears and anxieties which dis
turb US are enormously costly. We could
pay fair slice of the national debt with
what the country will have lost through the
excitement of the last week and the week or
ten days which must yet elqpse before we
can hope for q definite settlement of the
Presidential question. We hope the poll
ticians will not delay unnecessarily the final
decision. II ought not to take more than a
week to get in the returns even from the most
far away counties Of Louisiana If such de-
laysare to occur we shall ask that the collec-
ton of election returns be assigned hereafter
by constitutional amendment to the NEW
YoRK HxRALD. That is independent and
trusted by both parties, and it will under
take to get in the authentic vote Of the whole
country in less than four days.

Senator Bayard and tho Duty OF tho
People 20 the Constitution and the
Laws OF tho Country.
Mr.. Bayard's position in the democratic
party and before the country render his
words especially significant during this
critical situation, and they will be impressed
upon the public mind by the force Of their
moderation and their frmness. It is with
great satisfaction that we recognize this spirit
which animates the democratic leaders, and
which has found expression in an interview
printed in yesterdays World 1t is to be
noticed that the Senator is unwilling to be
present at the session of the Returning
Board of Louisiana, since, in his opinion,
mo matter what may be the issue of the
returns or the conduct of the Returning
Board, either set of such delegates would
be totally without power to arrest the wrong
in tie,i or to remedy it when accomplished.
Neither the prevention nor the cure lies
with them nor with the President, but both
do exist elsewhere, ample and well defined.
Upon the duty of the people and the dem
ocratic party he is very positive that it is
necessary that the letter and spirit Of the
laws should be scrupalously followed and
at the same time that their observance
should be insisted upon with frmness and
determination. In no other way can the
expressed will of the people be fairly ascer-
tanned or their choice for the Presidential
Office be declared and our President be in
augurated. (Which way these majoritles
or any of them are is question of fact
which is or ought to be capable of distinct
and positive proof if the laws have not been
violated. 1t is by that fact that the Amer
ican people must stand, and not by any
false and counterfeit presentment of that
fact, whether prepared by the fraud of ON
official hand or not. Never was there oc-
casion more gravely calling for an utter ab-
sence of anything like personal irritation or
party heat but, at the same time, never
was there an occasion demanding more de-
liberate and grave determination to insist
upon the very truth and right of this ques-
ton under the authority Of the law and of
the law alone. Our path will then be
plainly marked for us and we can and will
tread it with an unfaltering STEP"

mr.. rilaen B.hind r1i. TICKET.

II was frequently remarked during the
canvass by independent voters that the ideal
result for the country, the absolutely best
and most satisfactory-at least, to these in
dependent voters-would be the election of
Mr.. Hayes to the Presidency, but the cleo
ton at the same time of democratic govern
ors and State legislatures in all the South
ern States. Thus those who desired this
result said tho republican party would
be once more trusted with the federal ad-
ministration, while the Southern States
would be relegated to local self-government
and the white people there, the intelligent
and property owning class, would be en-
abled to make needed reforms in their local
affairs.
It would be odd If this result, very little
expected by those who wished it, should
really come about At this writing it
is not entirely unlikely. In South
Carolina considerable vote seems to
have been cast for Hayes and Hamp-
ton, and thus Mr.. Tilden runs behind

ment which she tore up with such passion;
yet the maladroit English Premier holds
forth to an audience of London gobemouches
on the assumption that Russia will negotiate
on the basis of the validity of that treaty.
If Russias ultimatum was unnecessary in
view of the tractability Of the Sultan what
must be thought of this declaration OF
England that war will follow the failure OF
negotiation-a declaration made at moment
when negotiation was just initiated? If this
WAS not an attempt to apply the tactics of
the bully-to supplement- feeble diplomacy
with noise-it was an idle, mischievous and
ridiculous threat Already it is bearing
fruit The Russian people of all classes
have responded to the words Of the Gar in
manner to leave no doubt that when Rus
sia nises the standard of the Cross all
the resources OF the nation will back its for
ward march. The stubborn temper in which
the Porte finds itself is doubtless reflex,
too, of the encouragement to Ottoman hopes
given by Lord Beaconsfeld's speech. The
victories over the Servians in the field
certainly cannot account for the defiant atti-
tude Of the Turks. 1t is plain that the Eng
lish Premier's utterance, by stinging Russia
and stroking Turkey, has defeated the pro-
jected conference in advance of its meeting.
One of the few ways to a peace has been
blocked by England. Turkey has taken
her at her word with an alacrity which must
at once mortify and startle the authorities
OF Downing street Russia has taken the
threat SO unbecomingly uttered and an
swered it with another. Turkey, that feels
the hopelessness of staving off forever the
struggle with Russia and civilization, takes
advantage of the doughty utterance last
Thursday to force the ally to her side that
has committed herself. Hero is mischief for
Lord Derby, the Foreign Secretary, to cure.
A hairs breadth either side of the situation
is war. Can diplomacy split that hair and
drag itself through The prospect is more
than doubtful.

From Tower TO TOWER shall soon
have foot bridge from New York to it's
Brooklyn wards, but it will be very high
one, and those who cross will have to go up
seventeen pair of stairs on one side and down
seventeen pair of stairs on the other. We do
not think, therefore, that the ferry companies
would have much to fear from the compe-
tition for long time, even if this desirable
foot bridge was open to the public, which it
viii not be. 1t is said that Centennial Dix
is waiting for this foot bridge to be COM
pleted that he may cross tho East River to
be Mayor Of tho Long Island ducks and
snipe. We do not credit tho report, but the
aged statesman on the lofty wire would
draw large crowd to witness his withdrawal
from the canvass.

Mn. WENDELL Phillips SPEAKS. Mr..
Phillips is political Mother Carey's
chicken. He is certain to turn up in stormy
times and we should have been q little at
q loss if his voice had not been heard in
these days. He tells us that every net Of
President Grant will live in history as saga
cious and wise; that if Mr.. Tilden is elected
he will have to thank the New York and
Boston newspapers; that but for the South
ern issue the republican party would have
been little better than mob in this election
that the South is unchanged, and that he
respects it the more for not chang
ing; and that woman's suffrage is more
than ever needed to save the country. This
last is as though Mr.. Samuel Bowles should
now nominate Charles Francis Adams for
President in 1880. Mr.. Phillips is at least

The Clergy and tho Elections.


There never was o political crisis in which
the clergy could SO effectively serve the
country without being partisan az that
which now excitcs both political parties
What we need at this time are appeals to
moderation rather than apostrophes to pa
triotism, and we are glad to observe that
most of our New York clergymen on Sunday
took the only course in the matter which
conscientious and Christian men could
adopt. END as it may" said DR.. Bellows,
''good citizens will acquiesce in the result
let bad men or impatient or blind partisans
on either side object and struggle against it
as they may, any undisputed decision will
be better than further countenance Of an ex-
citement which infames the coarser and low
disciplined minds of the nation with violent
animosities and the desire to use any means
of making their own side victorious.
Other clergymen discussed the subject
in much the same way, and the Rev. Mr..
Macarthur summed up the whole case
when he said I'm this country one party
must suffer defeat so let the verdict of the
people be taken and accepted as final
Either man SO recently before the country as
candidate for the highest Office of the land
is better, far better, than strife or trouble.
1t is very gratifying to hear such words as
these from the pulpit in times of great diff
Guilty and danger When the teachers of
religion are united in preaching m medArat;on
there need be no fear that the people will
yield to their passions or forget their highest
duty to themselves and their country. 1t is
gratifying also that the clergy have followed
in the course which the HERALD marked out
for itself and has pursued from the begin
ming of this crisis ; and, much as we esteem
the compliment which DR.. Bellows paid to
this journal, we are still better pleased to
find the pulpit working harmoniously with
the press to allay the excitement of the hour
and assisting to obtain general acquies-
cence in tho verdict OF tho elections, what
ever it may be.

his bolus in time to save the patient Is an
other thing. He adds the uncomfortable
to be the next President until the 4th OF

taken that We trust we may without offence
hope he is, for this time, "wrong again"
