Bloody Threats.

Now that the election of Mr.. TILDEN 10
assured beyond any reasonable doubt, the
Republican managers. who cannot bear TO
loosen their grip on the Treasury, or TO
have exposed their stll concealed rascali-
Hes and robberies, begin to threaten re-
Instance TO his Inauguration. They employ
The language and breathe tho fanatical and
foolish spirit OF the most violent class of
Mo secessionists of 1851 in regard to Mr..
JIacoLN.
BLAINE in his speech at Buffalo, told the
people that il New York voted for TILDEN
be would be certainly elected, and then
asked: Twin you allow him to be inaugi-
rated in that event - A prominent
speaker, who had thoroughly canvassed
his state, recently went to Washington and
admitted that TILDES would carry IL
largely. But, said he, before he shall be
nauguratcd the streets OF this capital will
run with blood"
The 81. Louis CT be does not mince mat
lcrs, in giving utteranco to the purpose of
those for whom it speaks, when it says:
mo man elected by the process resorted to by
the Democrats Of South Cirona icM erer nc
1dOoed ~ take his sat rs President of the United
states. This 10 our deliberate judgment"
We advise these persons to keep cool and
not to let their angry passions rise. II will
be hard to resist tho ine vitable result which
Il now foreshadowed. SAMUEL j. TILDEN
will be elected President, and the four mil
lions Of voters, North and South East and
West, TO whose suifrages he VIII be indebt-
cd for the office, will see to it that he is in
nugurated on the 9Th OF March, 1877.
The ofliceholders, the Rings, the jobbers,
the thieves, the carpet-baggers, and the
rogues, who have had full swing for more
than fifteen years, and have run this Gov
ernment like close corporation for their
own profit, leaving to the people the privi-
lege of paying whatever taxes they i'm
posed, will die hard, of course. But they
had better not try rebellion to retain
possession, or threaten TO break things
because they are to be turned out. Some
Of the usages of Mexico cannot safely be
tried in the United States.
We are law-abding people, and our
habit is to submit TO the decision OF the
ballot box, even when it is VIGOROUSLY
stuffed, as has been the Republican prac-
fnr In a
oil over the South under carpet bag rule.
Nobody fears that BLAINE would lead
any resistance that he might incite. He is
no more dangerous now to the reformers
than he was to the rebels during the war,
when he hired a substitute who finally
brought up in Jail, while BLAINE himself
expended his patriotism in the lobby, and
jobbery illustrated his sense Of public
duty.
When CALHOUN threatened notification
and violent opposition to the execution Of
the laws, Gen. JACKSON did not hesitate to
say he would hang him as high as HAMAN
If an attempt was made to put these men
aces into execution. BLAINE Will take
good care never to get his neck in the
halter if he can avoid it. But some Of his
deluded followers may get ilto an ugly
sorape by this sort of vaporing, which is
intended to intimidate the weak and igno-
rant II they are wise at all, they will
accept the admontion to keep cool, and
be prepared to see our Uncle SAMUEL in
augurated like all his predecessors in the
Presidential ONCE.
