The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1876-12-06

RICHMOND ENQUIRER,-After a suspen-
sion of more than two months, this we'll
known paper has bsen revived, j. L. School
craft being proprietor, J. Watson James,
editor, w. B. Allegro, business manager
The reputation of the Enquirer goes back to
the days of Thomas Ritchie, when it was a
great power in Virginia and in Federal pol
tiles. To raise it up again to such pres
tige is an aim and work which may well
stir the ambition Of any man. We sincerely
wish the success of every enterprise which
may elevate the profession Of journalism, ele-
vate the tone of society, and prove itself the
vigilsDt guardian of whatsoever things are
true, honest, just, pure, lovely AID of good
report.

DISPUTED ELECTIONS Louisiana, Flor

of the elections has yet been received. That
part which relates to the office of President
Of the United States, will have Co be settled
by Congress. 10 South Carolina the con
test for Governor and Legislature still con-
tinues, The Democrats are acting under Nhe
sanction of the Supreme Court, aud under
toe wise couusels of Generals Hampton and
Gordon, and much confidence is entertained
of the ultimate triumph of law and order. A
few more days from this time, (ruesiay, 5:h)

that have reduced the expenditures
ON the New York canals 81, 500, 600,
yet the Republicans say his reform
is sham
The Michigan Tribune says
"The election of Zach. Chandler To
the craftsmanship of the Grant Ma
tional Committee is another indica-
ton of the efforts now being made
to reform within itself"
The Clinton Independent says
The party cannot unload by I'M
loading Grant. 1t is less than a
month since the whole party said
"The national administration merits
commentator for its honorable
work in the management of domes-
tic and foreign affairs, and Presi-
dent Grant deserves the continued
and Heartily gratitude Of tie Inner
ican people for his immense services
IN ,odr and ia peace
The Ionia Standard says: 1t is
to I've deeply regretted that TIE Re-
publican press is starting afresh
the cries of "Rebels" and "Confed-
crate rule" though it is scarcely to
be wondered at when We reflect
that he nerve, bone and sinew OF
the party is made up of sectional
hatred, and that when they can no
longer hoodwink the people by
these devices the party must die.
When it can no longer flaunt the
bloody shirt to the terror of the
North, the Republican party that
instant becomes a political corpse.
They loathe to meet the dread is
sues of economy and reform, so
they howl treason and traitors.
The Allegan Democrat says: The
Democratic House has seen to ii
that appropriations have been cut
down TO a figure somewhat in con-
souance with an economical gov
eminent, and it will take equally
good care that expenditures are
made to correspond with the appro-
priations.
The Monroe Monitor says: The
strong ground taken in favor OF
Tilden at the st. Louis Convention
was mainly owing to the fact that
his public career was such as to in
spire perfect confidence on the part
of the people in his ability and dis
position to meet the great emergen'
~ of the times by bringing the
administration of the government
back to the old landmarks when il
was characterized by honesty ant
economy. Up to the hour that hi
nomination became probable h,
stood without a blemish, as far a:
the Republican press was concern
ed, and had, further, received thu
highest commentator.

Ti,Icn's Overthrow Of Tweed.

Harpers' Weekly, edited by
George William Curtis, which is
now doing all in its power to dis
parage Gov. Tilden, said in Novem-
Der last. in a view of the decision
in the Tweed case:
The combined spectators had
everything well arranged for their
defense when, in 1871, an eXtraor-
binary mass of figures was publish
ed in the New York Times con-
corning the expenditures of the
city. Though it was very intelli-
gible, yet the publication was in
tended and adapted to excite deep
suspicion of the villainy which was
i'm progress. IL was Just
at this moment that mind, as repre-
sented by Mr.. Tilden lin distinction
from "brains," personifed by
Sweeney, achieved its final victory.
The mere crude mass of figures
which had been published excited
but did not enlighten the public,
nor did it confound Tweed. A day
or two, however, before the cleo
ton in the autumn of 1871, suit
was brought against Tweed and
Ingersol and some other confeder'
ates for the stolen s6,000,000. Tt
the complaint was annexed SEIZED
ules prepared by Mr.. Tilden, with
explanatory affidavits by himself
and others, which presented ant
sustained so plain case Of thief
that Tweed never dared deny it
Never, during the whole two years
of his Senatorial term, did be pre-
sumo to take his seat in the Legis
lature for which he was returned
From the moment when he peruseC
Mr.. Tilden's statement his ambition
was paralyzed.

A correspondent of the Cleveland

recommendations for three per-
sons, to Governor Hayes, and APP

it is made on Republican authority,
