In relation to the business outlook the
Boston Traveller says: The New York
merchants. anticipating an early settle
ment of the Presidential controversy, and
failure of the democratic conspiracy, are
now giving their opinions in regard to the
future of trade. These opinions are not
confined to one class; they embrace the
exporters, the importers and tho domestic
houses, and there seems to be but one
conclusion, to wit, that from the depres-
sion of the past few years, owing to the
fact that stocks of goods and stocks of
supplies are short. there must be a radi-
cal reaction. This feeling has extended
TO Boston merchants, and in fact throug oh
out the business centres of the country.
and it may be regarded now as settled
fact. based upon reliable data, that the
business improvement for the year 1877
will be in excess of that of the last half
decade"

Especial Dispatch to the Boston Herald
WASHINGTON, Feb. Is. The democratic man
ayers are very much demoralzed this morning in
regard to the publication Of the Oregon cipher dis
patches which passed between Pelton and Patrick
and others in regard to the electoral vote of that
State. Hewitt is Severely censured, and his whole
management of the campaign is denounced a. in
judicious and foolish in the extreme. Morrison,
Mcmahon, Knott and other leaders who have been
pushed aside here during the last 80 days in order
to give David Dudley Field an opportunity to cen
duct the democratic case before the committees
and tribunal hardly conceal their exultation at his
discontinue Willis says the dispatches have a
very ugly look, and they need explanation as soon
as possible Hewitt and his friends are silent on
the subject, and counsel patience until the whole
story Is told.

The New Hampshire campaign has
been waiting the result of the electoral
count. If, as now seems morally certain,
the Tildenites are defeated in their schemes
to cheat the people out of the Presidency.
the republicans of the Granite State will
enter upon the canvass with great enthu-
siasm and with all the assurances of vic
tory on their side. But if the result is
otherwise. If the election of last fall is
given away and Tilden counted in, the
campaign will drag and the result be
doubtful. With Hayes declared elected
an old-time republican victory which will
give the republicans the State ticket. the
full delegation in Congress and the Legis-
AZURE will follow.

The Washington correspondent of the Cleye-

The young and besutiful widow Of Commodore
McCracken Of eur navy returned from abroad at

affairs in 3 complicated state, went to Mr.. O'Con.
or to get bis legal advice in disentangling them.
Mr.. OConor upon examination, discovered tina,
the Commodore had died insolvent, and the beau

selfish world without penny to call her own
This be was obliged TO break TO her, whereupon

The great lawyer, "the best advice can give you
Is to marry me-" whereupon they were married.

The Boston Post thinks Hayes cannot
accept the Presidency without evidence
to his sense of right" because the "will of
the people, by majority of 100000. was
expressed for another" To which the
Newburyport Herald says "There may
be some question about their quarter-of-
ambition popular vote, but admit it, what
has the popular vote to do with it (? There
was time when states counted, and state
rights were recognized, and the Pres-
dent was the head OF the federal union OF
the states, without regard to popular ma
jorities. The will of the people is moth
ing in the election of President, but the
will of the states and the commissioner
creature of democratic sanction--will de-
termine that"

There is one thing in this Presidential
contest which is very remarkable, and
that is the attitude of the candidates them
selves. While Governor Tilden sends and
receives the most extraordinary despatch
es and directs the campaign for himself,
Governor Hayes goes quietly about his
own work, and no one has ever limited
that he had taken any part in the republi-
can canvass. He has spent no barrels of
money nor encouraged others to do so.

There is good deal of talk to the effect
decision Of the comission if it is against
them but the New York Herald says
"Justicc requires us to say that the pre-
ponderance of democratic sentiment in
Washington frowns down all such coun-
sells of dishonor. The democrats may
have a bitter pill to swallow in the
Louisiana case, as they have bad in the
Florida case but they will not reject it.
They may make wry faces, but they will,
nevertheless, gulp down the dose. Hon
or and interest alike require this manly
course. We are confident that there will
be no fnching."
