,,nets---A gDeep-Sented Conspiracy.
WAsHJNuToS, October A.-The evidences
OF the deep-seated conspiracy to Wrest Ger
tain southern States from the Democratlc
party are daily multiplying. The outrage
mill has been set to work again, ana tne
same old falsehoods concerning MISSISSIPPI,
Louisiana, and North. Carolina are now
being furnished to the partisan press WIN
the REQUEST; to give: them the greatest promi-
nence Thisi all preliminary to throwing
troops into those States to be put under the
control OF the Radical United States mar
shaIs. It is notorious that in North caro-
lima the utmost quiet has prevailed, anu the
canvass has been conducted with the great
est good feeling on both sides. w.
In order TO secure some pretext Tor send-
ING trooDs into that State the Admin1stra-
ton is scattering broadcast over the Nortn
stories Of imaginary outrases. The new
York Tribune. which ought to be capable
Of better things, is foremost in the WORK OF
yiIllfication and mendacity. The action OF
the Administration is confession That
HAYES and Wheeler can only be elected by
oyerrunning the southern States with armed
soldiery and surrounding the ballot-boxes
with bayonets.
While thus putting the bayonet at the
throat OF the South the Administration
leaders are concerning measures to help
their cause in the North, which will not bear
the light OF day. Secretary Chandler has
spent of late much time in New York IN
consultation with the Radical managers
there. Hereturned tonight with the inten-
ton of remaining until after the election,
and will be deeply immersed in plots to de-
feat the will OF the majority in that State.
In the choice and congenial company o,
little Johnny Davenport, and Bliss, and
others, mischief will certainly be set afoot.
Secretary Cameron accompanied Mr.. Chand-
| Ter as far as philadelphia, where "the in
forests OF the party - also need looking
after. Last year Hartranft was, elected
Governor Of Pennsylvania by the fraudu.
lent vote OF Philadelphia. This year the In
dicationS are that the Democratic majority
in the State will be much larger than that OF
last year, and the Philadelphia ring will
Ehaye to do considerable more ballot-boX
stufing to win. ~; ~.
|. The New York Tribune and other Radical
papers are exhibiting much yirtuous alarm
oyer what they call the immense fraudulent
registration in the, city OF New York, but
they have not a word to say Of the much
larger registration in Philadelphia, with its
three or four hundred thousand less popu-
lation. A philadelphia Republican Of .promi-
nence now here has had the candor to say
that the Tammany people are but as babies
compared with the Philadelphia ring in the
capacity OF running up malorltles. ,.G

8 Those Claims The Nail yut!

Those 8 Claims The Nail Fit!
Governor aLpES's letter on Che subject
OF those claims those so-called !" southern
claims with which the dcvilist Radical
press and leaders have essayed to alarm the
North, completely sweeps away every false
suggestion, every pretence OF apprehension,
d that has been put forth with regard to them.
This letter is admirable. IL Is as frank and
.unreseryed as it could be made, and utterly
scattcrs to the winds all the disingenuous
speculaiions as to what he and the Demo-
,crats may do about southern claims should
he be elected. It does more. With energy
and clearncss Governor TILDEN tells the ma
ton that the rebel debt cannot possibly be
paid, nor can there be ever paid compensa-
ton for emancipated slaves. The strife is
ended, and like wise statesman and true
philanthropist, he urges all to let "by-
cones be bY-gones.'' There are losses that
cannot be repaired and wrongs that can
never be redressed. So we cannot recall to
i lite the youth Of both sides that fell in heca-
tombs in the fratricidal strife.
There is no earthly ground left to the
persons who have been endeavoring, with
what appeared to be preconcerted scheme,
to alarm the people Of the North with re-
gard to purposes OF Mr.. T1LDES concerning
these tssouthern claims.'' That "great
card" in the game is taken out OF their
hands.
The admirable sentiments OF Mr.. TILDEN
on the subject of ending strife, forgetting
the past, and reyiving national harmony,
must be delightful to the national heart.
But it is all galland worm-wood to the ruth
less Radicals whose only hope was in milan
Ing the sectional animosities and engaging
the rancors and hates engendered by war
They want not peace. They are still "put
ting down the rebellion" 1t is now the
people that have s:rebelled." 1t is they
who are forming into sssold" resistance TX
the Radical party; and to divide them ant
weaken them the demons OF discord are en-
deavoring to put them in hostility ah(
strife. 1t is deyilish device.
TnDEN's exhortations, like the whit
wings OF angels, descend gently upon thepeo
ple with healing and comfort. 1t is full tim
that nation which has so long suffered
from strife, evil passions, maLadministra
ton and expressions, and all their distract
ing effects, should hail rea! peace with Joy

;, It Is encouraging to see the INSCRIPTIONS
Radical papers OF New York inveighing
against frauds at elections. 1t is good
sign. They intend to ascribe their defeat
to frauds. That such party should cry

sible, any device, however infamous. which
they would not employ to carry the cleo

The Street Railway.

The local Of the Wing defends Mr.. YEAT-
MANS plan for reinvigorating the street rail-
way company. e., the establishment Of
several lines to build lateral railways
along the cross streets, to be run in cOnnec-
ton with and as tributaries to the through
trunk-line that is parallel with the river.
The argument in behalf Of these lateral
lines, as first stated in the Wing. plainly
justified the inference that the strongest
inducement to their construction was the
:" accommodation ? OF those who built them.
We remarked that men were not inclined
to build street railways with that object,
but for ,;fproft." And now the Wing says
that the plan is intended for F:proft."
Very well. But how are persons to see
the promise of profit from these short lat
eral lines when the Wing says that the own
~ers Of the present through line have been
so discouraged that they are determined to
put no more money in the street-rail-
way business OF Richmond? II a long line
running the whole length OF the city can
not be profitable how could profit, be eX-
pected from short CROSSINGS?
Catching at Improbable expedients
never fails to postpone the day Of success.
The true and only obstruction in the way
OF entire success Of the street railway in
Richmond is the steep grades Of the prin-
cipal streets. II there were such grades as
would make communication through the
length Of the city easy, that communication
would be maintained with regularity aud
with proper expedition. These things
would ensure public support and profit;
and prosperous company would soon af-
ford the means OF rapid and certain trans
portation to people in all tolerably. popula-
ted parts of the city sg
That there viii be proper grades for the
street-cars we are certain. How long be-
fore that is the case we cannot undertake to
say. But for Richmond to expect to get
along without the street-car would be q
folly we can hardly consider possible. No
city Of these days can do without this adj
mirable means OF travel. Cities are too ex-
tensiYe for foot-passengers. Business in
them cannot now be done without the help
of the car. those cities which have the
earsscannot dispense with them, and those
which have them not and do not Introduce
them as a means Of intercourse cannot pos
sibly expect to become eonlpetitorstin trade
and business. Indeed city that has not
streetrailways must be = city on the, wane.
Dying cities do not. want them, OF course )
aud iiTing and thriving cities can no more
do without them than they can do without
city government and police. ss. ss 81

THE SOUTHERN PLANTER FOR NOVEMBER
is very instructive No., very spirited, and
very energetic. Among its contents we
name: "The Field-Pea as Fertilizer"
most timely article in this day OF mania for
concentrated fertilizers, and for making the
quickest return from their tillage in man
ner destructive to the continued fertility OF
the soil. The article has the commentator
OF the editor. who knows something OF this
matter. The feld-pea affords one OF the
best OF green manures. g Rotation Of Crops
and Progressive Farming" by DIR. j. G.
BRoDSAx, of Pittsylrania, gives some CAPT
tai advice to farmers, so many OF whom are
impairing the yigor of their land by errors
in their SUGGESTIONS: OF crops. "Fodder-
Pulling Compared with Cutting Down,"a
subject that should be most earnestly con-
sidered by the farmer. The articles are
generally interesting to the farmer, and some
of them Of especial value to housekeepers.
DR.. ELLzEY, in the Stock Department, has
some capital suggestions and valuable infor-
nation. His leader, on g Breeding-in and
Excessive Feeding" being the cause OF bar
renness, is very logical and clear. He makes
this declaration, which we believe to be en-
tirely correct q The show business, Lead
cling to excessive feeding, has ruined more
&c flocks and herds than all other causes put
together" The Doctor has some good
things about the dairy and about stock gene
rally. He is considerable for animals and
wise as to the advantage OF treating them
well. We especially approve bis remark
that ono animal should be required to
!" drink water which the owner himself
"would refuse, especially SO if that animal

/" good butter."i3,fr ..,t &;ya G!,.M.' I
The editorials OF the Planter are pitliy
and concise. We observe that the editor,
possibly profting by the example Of Gene
raj NEWTON in blowing "HelEGate," has
galleried the Planter and charged it with
automatic selections from great statesmen
and philosophers, ii order to blow up the
Radical party. We trust the explosion may
be as successful as that made by the Gene
raj. There is explosive power enough in
the extracts to blow up the whole Radical
concern ii it he but brought to bear upon
them. 1t may be called political dynamite.
