HOIV IT IS VIEWED BY DIFFERENT
PARTIES
What Wise Correspondent OF the New
York Herald Thinks He Knows.
Washington Correspondence ~ Y. Iierald
It is no longer denied here that
there is great deal of dissatisfac
ton, and even decentralization in the
Republican ranks, in almost all tho
States one sees and hears enough
evidence on tho subject to enable
him to mako study of it; and I
think it would be mistake to be~
lievo all the grumbling to come
from tho office seekers and profes.
sional politicians. These two classes
are the most furious ; they feel and
say that they have been swindled by
the President F; that had they sus~
pectcd what his policy would be they
would havo taken very good care he
should not get into the White House.
Indeed, very prominent and inhucn>
tial men Of this kind do. not hesitate
to own to you in private discussion
that they never believed Mr.. Hayes
was elected they did not believe
that he carried Louisiana, and they
arc the less reconcilable on this ac~
count, for they feel that they carried
their candidate in iii defiance of the
right and now get nothing, not evon
thanks, for doing so. It is amusing
to sec the rage of those disappoint,
ed political spectators who find
themselves caught in trap of their
own making.
But it is not the politicians alone
who grumble. In such States as
Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, in
some parts Of Now York. Pennsyl-
vania and Illinois, the rank and file
of tho party, the honest voters in
the rural districts. are amazed and
indignant ut the Presidents South
ern policy. These simple souls can
not soc why "the South" is less
dangerous now than it was during
the presidential campaign, when
every Republican stump speaker
assured them solemnly that the
Union was never in greater peril.
In the Northwest tho farmers and
country people generally beloved
what Blaine and Bristow, Inger-
soil and Morton and the army of
orators sent out by Secretary Cham
dler told them about the South !;
they took it all for gospel truth,
and voted for Hayes to savo the
Union and keep down the rebels +;
in fact they were quite ready for q
new war rather than not put in Mr..
Hayes, and now they 500 their
President acting as though the
South was an integral and harmless
part of the Union, and they do not
understand it.

THE COUNTRY VOTERS.

Whatever trouble the President
may experience from the disgust of
the simple minded country voters
will be of his own making, of course.
He was silent all the summer and
fall, while the orators who urged his
election told the country that the
Union was in danger from the
South. The farmers and country
people swallowed all this frothy
champagne trash, and are naturally
alarmed now to see tho President
ego back on the country" that is
what it means to them.
cit is worry dangerous thing to
deceive the people" remarked one
of the most experienced politicians
of Washington tho other day. "What
they once believe, they hold fast to.
The old Democratic party made this
mistake. They howled for the
Union during many years and told
the people that those dreadful Re-
publicans would break down the
constitution and dissolve the Union,
and when, after all this Union saving
nonsense, the biggest part of the
Democratic party turned against
the Union in 1861, the people did
not hesitate five minutes, but sat
down on the Democrats and smashed
them"

POLITICIANS BELLICOsE.

There seems to be a good deal of
truth in this. The President will
presently find the people on his
side but he ean hardly help retain-
ing the enmity of large part of the
politicians. The Republican party
leaders have ceased to be q compact
and harmonious body. The voters
who '"believe in 1t" are all right 5
but the leaders are jealous Of each
other, ready to tear each other to
pieces each extremely anxious for
patronage to maintain himself and
break down his rivals and there is
hardlya Northern State in which

Before PIeyna.

LONDON. september IA dispatch from
The Daily NctrS'S correspondent before
Plcvna, dated Saturday, September Sth. de-
>cribes the situation at that date. The tclc-
gram gives good idea OF the great difficult
ties which the Russians have still to over
come. ItS principal points are as follows ::
"Thc attack upon Plevna resembles q
siege more than anything else. So far there
does not seem 10 have been Il single shot
exchanged 10y the infantry on the Russian
right and centre. The fire OF the Turkish
redoubt OF Grivica does not appear to have
siackcncd in the least, despite the enormous
number of shells thrown into it Yesterday ::
and although we can see earth flying into
the air in the middle OF the redouDt, the
Turkish guns reply as regularly as clock
work. 1t is evident none OF the Turkish
Guns have been dismountcd. 1t is very
probable that the Turks have not many
men in the redoutt. They are hidden in
trenches and low places in the ground out
side. 4 few only are kept in the redoubt
for the management OF the guns, and as fast
rs they are killed are replaced by others.
The fire of the Turkish batteries in the hol-
low between Grivica and Pleyna is less
steady, and not so well sustained as yester-
day. Probably some OF their guns have
been dismounted. ! must say do not be-
lieve much in the effect OF the Russian bonn
bardmcnt. There were to be mounted alto
gether four hundred guns bearing on the
Turkish position, but SO far not more than
one hundred or one hundred and twenty
seem to have been brought into position,
and the effect up to the present is very slight.
They Will have to come to much closer quar-
tcrs.''
The same correspondent in Il later dispatch
reports the continuation OF this artillery
duel on Sunday and Monday, during which
the Russian batteries gradually pushed for.
ward, as described in the official Russian
telegram in front Of Radizevo. Four guns
in the Turkish rcdoubt were dismantlcd on
Sunday, but replaced during the night
They were on Monday replying to the Rus
sian fire, but making sadly slow work in
the midst of the shells poured into the re-
doubt. Every now and then the Turk
suspended fire for many minutes as though
the redoubt had been silcnced, but after the
pause come back shell or two.

Yesterday until 8 o'clock in the afternoon.
,By evening three Turkish redoubts bad
been taken BY General Skobelef, while
General Radionaf had carried the Grivica
redoubt. General Radionaff was wound
ed, AdIutant Scheelar, commander OF
the Seventeenth infantry regiment,
and General Dobrawalskv, chief Of
the Third rife brigade, were killed. Six
Russian battalions and one Romanian batta-
lion took part in the assault on the Grivica
redoubt. We captured two standards and
FIVE guns. Our losses in wounded alone
exceed 5000 men. The number killed has
not been ascertained.
At daybreak to-day vigorous artillery
fire was recommended along the whole line.

Shiffiett and Morris. who were condemned
to be hung on Tuesday the 18th September,
have within the last twcnty-four hours been
in conference with their counsel. with the
Attorney for the Commonwealth, and with
the Judge OF the court, and have made con-

OF Lawson. Shifllett, however, contends
that Samuel Hall, the chief witness for the
Commonwealth in the case, procured for
him the gun with which he killed Lawson.
That part OF his confession which crimi-
mates himself is doubtless true, but his
effort to connect Hall with him in the MUIR
der it is believed has not the slightest
foundation in fact. Morris admits his con-
nection with the murder, but excuses him.
