The Boston Herald, which is an ardent
Tilden organ, has the candor to say that the
"points which the Republicans make about
the vote of Edgefield county, South Caroli-
ma, are hard to get over. The population
of that county, according TO the census of
1870, was then 42,4s6. Since then town.
ships with an aggregate population of 772s
have been set off to Aiken county. A State
census taken in 1875 found the population
of Edgetield county as now constituted 10
be 5000. By the same census, the whole
number of males over 81 years OF age was
found to be 1922. In 1870 the vote cast was
6751. In 1874 the total vote was 629s. Last
No vember the vote cast was 1874, and it is
claim ed that 600 negroes did not vote. The
increase OF about 1000 votes was all on the
Democrat side, and the vote is about one
In four for the population. We submit that
30 u rye vote raises strong presumption
OF fraud which the Democrats have done
nothing 10 explain away SO far as we have
seen and though we believe that Hamp-
toms ele ction would be the best thing for
South Carolina, we do not believe in secur-
ing it by fraud. No doubt there we're
frauds in the black counties, but two rights
do not make a wrong. We should not
stand such nonsense in Massachusetts,"

facts relating 10 the town. The location of
many of the old buildings was given, with
numerous interesting "reminiscences Of the
founders OF the town. Mr.. Swain OF the
Bellows Falls Times, in reply to pleasant
ly facetlous call from the chair, made brief
and pertinent remarks, aflor which the ex-
ercises closed by the congregation joining
with the band in the hearty rendition OF
"Amerlca."
The people OF the town may safely con-
graduate themselves on the success Of this
patriotic demonstration. Their hospitality
knows no limit, and good roads would have
brought in Il densely crowded house, but
this could have hardly added to the real
enthusiasm of the occasion. All the ar
engagements were admirably made, and the
enjoyment OF the evening was greatly
heightened by the grace and TACT as well as
by the rare vein OF genuine humor and
pleasantly displayed by the chairman.
May another hundred years find the peo-
OF Westminster as patriotic, as prosperous,
and as true to the memory Of the founders
Of the State as are those OF this generation.

dies and Australia and In Russia and other
European markets. The explanation, OF
course, is the American economy Of labor
by the use Of machinery. In Switzerland,
the annual average productions is 40 watch
es per workman In this country, $50. The
machine makes the difference. The Swiss
judge astonished his audiences by some OF
his experiences. A safeful of American
watches Of the fflh grade (price $50 was
thrown open to him, and he picked out one
at random and put in his pocket, without
allowing any opportunity for its adjust
ment. AT Paris, he set ii and observed its
variations. In six days they amounted to
so seconds. A Swiss adjuster to whom he
handed ii for testing, reported that he was
overwhelmed" Not one such "would
be found in $4,000 Of Swiss manufacture"
of similar grade and price, we presume
he means.
American silks occasioned an equally I'M
happy surprise to the manufacturers who
have been supplying the market. j. Wal
ter II. Thorpe writes home to the Maccles-
field Courier (Eugland) that the English
silk-makers wisely abstained from exhib-
lung NJ Inllauelpnla, loE tney Woulu On-
ly have exposed their inleriority in quality
and price," and that the sample labor-sav-
ing appliances and greater intelligence" of
the American artisans will subject the Eng
lish ilk-makers to such competition as
they have never dreamed of. He mem
tlons the Dale5, Cheneys and other manu-
fscturers, aud quotes from the fiue volume
issued by the American silk association:
"Twenty years ago our supply of dress
silks, ribbons and silk laces was drawn in
about equal quantities from England and
France. To-day, beyond few fancy goods
dixie silk lace, hosiery and mixed goods
chiefly of spun silky, we buy no silks from
Great Britain"
The importation of writing and printing
papers in 1873, amounted 10 S72s, 900; now
1t is only $4,000 for the past year, and if
the importation OF wall papers were adGed,
which is also rapidly diminishing, the to-
tai imports would not much exceed $780,
900. On the other hand, the export of writ
ing and printing papers has risen since
1869, from nothing to $4,000.

PROF. scHusrER's CONCERT.

The vocal and instrumental concert an
nounced by Prof. Oh. +. Schuster for We'd
nesday evening was in all respects a great
success, and as far as the Orchestra and
SeA'et'e club were concerned, all agreeable
surprise. Rumors had been heard of the
reg ular hard practice of these two musical
bodies, but we were far from expecting any,
thing like the precision and finish of exe-
culion displayed in the performance of
Flotow's brilliant Overture to Stradella by
the Orchestra, under the able conduct of
Frof' Schuster, or of the Fantasia, (Schus-
teri for trombone and Sextette band. In
which selection the composer rendered the
trombone solo as only be could do. The
orchestra also gave spirited and graceful
rendering OF Polonaise (Bach) for orches-
ira and organ, besides one or two encores.

four organ selections in different STYLES

DAMAGE BY AN les GORGE ON THE OHIO
RTvER.-The ice from the upper Monou
gahela river to the mouth ofthe Ohio at Ca
iro, ILL.,, began to break up and move at the
close of last week, and the loss of property
by 1t in the region of Pittsburg, Pa, alone
is estimated at 100000 while there is
much destruction near Cincinnati on the
Ohio. The ice is piled up 20 or 80 feet 10
places. The total losses swell into erorm-
Gus proportions. 1t is estimated that from
800 to 400 coal barges and $500. 900 bushels
OF coal we're destroyed, to say nothing of
the steamboats,, damage TO dry docks, and
the various other interests on the river. At
Cincinnati a new steamer was crushed in
aud sunk, and the total loss at this point is
800 OOO

POLITICAL NOTES.

Inc new Jersey House is tie, anu the
Senate has only one Democratic majority.
The United States Senatorship is at stake.
The House organized with a Democratic
Speaker and Republican Clerk.
Wade Hampton has appointed special
agents in most of the counties in South
Carolina, TO collect the 10 per cent of the
tax levy which his partisans pr oppose TO pay
him to keep the wheels of his State govern
ment in motion.
The Columbia (Tenn.) Times has the fol-
lowing: "a few days ago man came into
the Post Office, at this place, with four ten
cent Confederate postage-stamps, and in
quired If they were good. We suppose he
was under the impression that Tilden had
been elected"
Hayes and Wheeler had never met, ii is
said, until Mr.. Wheeler went to Columbus
last week for consultation with Gov. Hayes
The vice president. elect visited the Ohio
Legislature ON Thursday in response TO an
invitation, and then left Columbus for
Washington.
"Gath," in one Of his gossipy letters to
the Philadelphia Times, anent the Bennett
May imbroglio, rather cheerfully observes
that Newspaper men are like wolves

There is growing talk among the Repub-
lican leaders about the Mississippi election,
and the intimidation which is charged with
being the sole cause for the Tilden MAORI
ty. United States Marshal Lake, who is
now in Washington, declares that Hayes
would have had 25. 900 majority with free
aud fair election, and reports that over 60
persons have been indicted in his district
for interfering with the freedom of the cleo
ton.
The Tribune calls the attention of Demo-
Gratis to the fact that nobody could be Pres
ident Of the United States, even TO the ex-
tent of forming cabinet or appointing
postmaster, who was not recognized by the
Senate as President, and says that unless
certain Senators choose 10 oppose the count
ing of the votes officially returned in Lou
isianI or Florida, Governor Hayes will be-
come President as surely as the sun rises
on the 4th Of March.
The politicians of both parties fear new
election, and the people are decidedly OPP
posed TO such a settlement; besides, it
might prove no settlement at all. Who
can be sure that the result would not again
hang upon some Southern State, and that
the democratic House would not again In.

RAILROAD AoCIDENTs.-A train on the
Virginia Midland railroad broke a rail last
Thursday afternoon, near Kettle run
bridge, between Manassas and Bristol. and
two sleeping cars left the track and ran
down the emba N kment. The first of the
sleeping cars turned over several Ii mes in
Its descent, and, striking against an abut-
ment OF the bridge, was smashed into
thousand fragments. The other sleeper
followed, and was badly damaged. There
were 20 passengers, in the front and IL in
the rear, besides two conductors and two
porters. Most of the passengers were in
Vallds on their way to Florida. Consider
Ing the character OF the disaster it was lit
tie else than miraculous that no one was
killed.
On the same day passenger car on the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad jumped the
track near Greenbrier river, West Va, and
plunged down a 45-foot embark ment to
the Ice Of the river, but did not 60 through.
Seven persons were hurt, but none fatally.

American Manufacture. 4. E-ron.

Both advocates of free trade and protec-
ton are seeking to bend TO their own theo-
ries the fact OF the success of American
manu- facturers in creating foreign mar
ket for their goods. Whether or not the
establishment and development of these
industries is wholly due to the protective
system, and whether under the reciprocal
action OF freer trade the exports could not
be greatly increased, arc questions about
which men differ. Bnt the facts themselves
as brought out by the commissioners and
visitors to the Philadelphia exhibition are
what interest people the most just now.
One of the frankest confessions Of Amer
ican superiority is contained in the address
OF NJ. Favre-Perret Of Switzerland, one of
the judges on watches, 10 the watch-mak-
ers of that country. M. Favre- Perret tells
the Swiss watch-makers that they have lost
irreVocably their American trade, and that
they are being crowded out of their Euro
pean trade by the American manufacturers.
In 1864 the Swiss sent 1859, 900 watches to the
United States, in 1872, 366. 900, and from
that point there has been a steady decline
10 lSA,OO In ls75-and in the present year
IL Is not probable that 5000 will be sent
over. The American watch companv
(Waltham), which turned out If. 600 watch.
es In 1869, now turns out $50, 900 annuaIIv
and could easily double its production
while the Elsin and other companies give
the American manufacture an unlimi,sd
capacity. A reduction Of 40 per cent. in
price at Eigin, followed by one of 40 to so
per cent. at Waltham. puts the Swiss com
Pletely out OF competition. Favre- Perret
states that from $4,000 to $4,000 American
WaIs hes are now sold annually In England.

THE BENNETT MAY BUsINEss.-We get,
at last, one fact in the Bennett May scandal
and duel. Mr.. Bennett boarded the steam
or City Of Richmond from the Herald
yacht on Saturday, and sailed for Europe.
Beyond this all is confusion and conjecture
with contradictory stories. Mr.. Mays
whereabouts are not known. The most
plausible story is that he is down at duck
shooting house on the Maryland shore,
nursing his wound, but whether it is in the
hip or arm, or whether there is a wound,
are all yet in dispute. The New York au-
thorities have not yet decided what to do
with DIR. Phelps, one of the attendant surg
cons, who refuses to tell what he knows
of the affair. No other suspected witnesses
have been arrested, and some who are sup
posed 10 be good witnesses are missing.
Meantime Miss May remains at her home
In New York, aud is reported III, as we'll
she may be.

CRUSHED BY Snow AND IcE.-About
noon, last Friday, large part of the glass
roof Of the east side Of the car house of the
Grand Central depot at New York, was
crushed by the weight OF show upon it.
The thick glass fell with a crash directly
over the part of the depot in which the
trains come in. The distance for which tho
glass gave way was more than hundred
feet. One was just due, and If it had ar
rived and the passengers had been leaving
1t at the time of the accident, many per-
soRs would undoubtedly have been killed
and wounded. As it was, no person was
injured. Several car horses attached to the
Fourth avenve cars which were in the de-
pot, were severely cut by the falling glass,
and one of them was laceraied in terrible
manner. The roof of one of the horse cars
was crushed In.
