graphs to General sheridip's headqusr-
tern here that the following n Just been

Indiana coming into the Spotted Tail
Agency. They rcport . heavy engagement

loss. and Sitting Bull Is wounded.

The above dispatch Is discredited BY
General Sheridan other officers here. who
think II highly improbable that the Indi.

General Sheridan received . dispatch
this afternoon from General Terry dated
II the mouth Of the Rosebud. August 7th.
In which the latter states be was unable to
march - he frst intended on the 7th and
would not until the evening OF the 9Th.
This dispatch renders Terry's reported
fight still more improbable.

SOUTH CAROLINA,s VOTE.

From the New York Herald, Republican.
Governor Chamberlain's dispatch to
the Herald contains but little, So far as
the results of the voting last Tuesday are
concerned, and that little strangely
vague. 1t Is more than curious that in
State like South Carolina the Execu-
tive thereof should not be able to furnish
us something more definite. 1t will be
fairly believed by the impartial that the
Democrats who have given the count on
the vote for Governor in every county
are correct. The most striking
point ia his dispatch, however, is
the evident determination to throw
out sufficient votes to give
the Republicans majority. Gov
ernor Chamberlain acts precisely as if
the votes cast were to be but smsll fac
tor in the determination Of the result.
The means taken by the Democrats to
proclaim the actual state of the polls ut
their closing have forced the game of
Governor Cham berlain, and desperate
game it is. He has clearly announced
the startling fact that board composed
in the majority of officers seeking re-elec-
tion to their present posts shall pass upon
the validity of the returns and throw out
districts at will; nay, that enough will
be thrown out 10 settle the result. After
all the parade of troops to "protect
the colored citizens" after all the Repub-
lican jubilation that now every one
could cast his vote in peace, alter an
election without riot or disturbance Of
any kind, we are treated to glimpse
of fabricated charges of "wholesale in
timidstion," sort of sickenIng postmor-
tem and inquest ON the "bloody shirt"
If the troops had not been poured into
the State; if the murders and assaults
and browbeatings of the colored Demo-
Gratis had not been notorious; if the
United States marshals had not had
the whole State in their hands for
weeks before the election, arrest
ing white men right and left, the
country might for all Its suspicion of the
rascals who have ruled in the South until
it is impoverished and almost bankrupt,
have lent an ear to Governor Chamber
lsins ghost stories. They will not be
listened to now. The troops are already
n the State and there is no danger of
any disturbance, but we earnestly entrest
the Republicans who are above winning
by fraud, to join hands with the Demo
Gratis, who only ask an honest count of
an honest vote, to send Representative
men to be present at the canvass by this
suspiciously composed Board.

Railroad Matters.

New YORK, November l4.-Rutus
Hatch, Russell Sage, and other stock
holders of the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern railroad, have obtained from
Judge Lawrence, in the Supreme Court,
an order returnable November 20th, re-
curing William II. Vanderbilt, Vice
President of the road, to show Cause why
he should not be compelled to authorize
the Farmers Loan aud Trust Company,
State agents for the transfer, to exhibit
to them the transfer books and list Of
stockholders. They make affidavit that
their object is to communicate with the
other stockholders and have steps taken
to prevent the unjust discrimination
made in through rates IN favor Of the
New York Central, OF which Vanderbilt
is also Vice President, arising out OF the
lstter's suicidal war with the Pennsyl-
yanis and Baltimore and Ohio roads,
which the plaintiffs wish to arrest.

RICHMOND, November l4.-Oficial
returns from ninety-three cities and

er's majority for Congress is j,z9S. In

majority is 6,485. Full returns have not
vet been received from the remaining
districts, but in the First Second. Third,
Fifth and Ninth districts, The Demo
Gratis have large najorities. Jaergeasen,
in the Fourth district, Is the only Re-
publican elected. HIS majority will be

THE VERMONT DIFFICULTY.

1t turns out that one HAYES elector in
Vermont is not eligible TO hold the posi-
ton. The constitution expressly pro-
vides that no person holding an Office of
profit or trust shall be appointed Presi.
Dental elector. This person is postmaster
at Bridgeport in that State. That he is
disqualified there seems to be no doubt,
but how the defect is to be cured does
not seem SO clear.
The telegraph yesterday morning in
formed US that HENRY N SoLLAcE, the
postmaster referred to, hsd sent in his
resignation of this Office. But. If he was
postmaster on the day of the election,
he was Ineligible, 10 be voted for, and
subsequent resignation don't mend the
matter. We are further informed that,
by the laws of Vermont "vacancy' IN
the electoral college OF the state may be
filed by the Legislature. But if the
candidate was ineligible on the day OF cleo
ton, no vacancy exists, and the elig bile
candidate who received the next highest
number of votes was chosen. A vote for
an Ineligible candidate is like vote for
a dead man or one that never existed.
If this view is correct, the remaining
four Republican electors and the candl-
date on the Democratic ticket who re-
ceived the greatest number of votes, have
been appointed to cast the five electoral
votes of the Green Mountain State.
A case very similar to this occurred in
Virginia in 1860. Judge WALLER r.
STAPLES was voted for on the BELL and
EVERETT ticket, which ticket was sue.
cessiul at that election. 1t occurred that
in printing the tickets Judge STAPLES
name was incorrectly spelled. He was,
therefore, not elected, and Mr.. LAMB, of
Norfolk, who led the BRECKENRIDGE
electoral ticket, was awarded the certlh.

U.S nar.haI Removed.

LOUISVILLE, November 1.-two
months ago the President appointed
Thomas Burns United States Marshal
for Kentucky, vice General Eli Murray,
resigned. Burns had scarcely taken pos
session Of the Office when the President,
without notice TO him, suspended him
under section l,768 of the Revised
Statutes and appointed Welden O'Neil
to take charge of the office. To-day
ONeil presented his bond to Judge Bal
lard Tor approval, when the Judge de-
clded that the power given the President
under the aforesaid section 10 sus-
pend an official related only TO
officers who had been approved
by and with the consent of the Senate
and that he could not recognize the sus-
pension of Col. Burns. Burns was origl.
nslly appointed to FIJI vacancy during
the recess Of the Senate, whether the
President could or conld not
have removed Burns outright was not
decided. Immediately after the decision
of Judge BuIls,d Col. Burns sent tele-
gram to Attorney-Genersl Taft, tender
ing his resignation to avoid all EN- oarras-
ment and trouble 10 litigans and re-
ouested the Attorney. General 10 express
20 the President bis regret that he had
seen proper to suspend him without any
notice that be was holding Office against
his wishes. The Presidents conduct to-
wards Col. Burns is warmly commended

Gen. Hampton says he has reports

cinct of the state, and is certain of his
election by l,400 majority. He knows

Motion OF Writ OF Mandnmus
Against the BOARD of Canvassers.
COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, Novem-
Der IA motion has been made by the
Democratic counsel before q full bench
of the Supreme Court, praying that
writ of prohibition and mandsmus be
granted, restraining the board Of state
canvassers from exercising their judicial
functions in the election Of electors, men,
bers of the legislature, members of Con-
gress and county solicitors, and combining
them to ministerial functions only. and
restraining Dunn, Cardozs and Hayne,
candidates for Comptroller, Treasurer and
secretary o! state, and nominees for re-
election to these offices, from sitting as
Judges on their own election. The court
issued rule requiring the board of can
yassers to answer, on Thursday, why
writs should not be issued. The can
vsssers had decided themselves that they
had no jurisdiction over the election Of
governor and ieutenant-governor, and
hence no question was raised respecting
them.

How the Legislative Halls OF South
Carolina Came to be without Fur

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The fact is that the halls of legislation
are without furniture. The late Legls-
lature passed an appropriation to return.
ish the halls and committee rooms, and
before this learned body adjourned
nearly all negroes, with three-fourths
unable to read or write-a celored Solon
rose to his feet and ssid:
"Mistah Spesksh, l moves, sab, dat de
honshable mem bahs of dis Legislatah
hab de privilege ob takin' TO dar own
homes all de ole furniture, sab.
This sensible proposition in the con-
fusion of the last hours, failed Of pass
age IN both branches, but it was enforced
all the same, and all the old carpets,
desks, chairs, patter-dusters, spittoons.
and clock-in a word, every article that
could be gathered up and carted away
disappeared. The attempt to replace the
necessary appliances to law making was
not successful.
