Russia gives an emphatic denial TO the re-
ports that she incittd tho recent Bulgarian
raids, by the energy with which she is re-
pressing them. It is obviously her interest
to pursue this course, so long as her army Is
responsible for the maintenance of order in
Bulgaria and Eastern ROumelia. When the
former province is organized under her aus
pices, it may DO more to oyeTturD Turkish
power than q series of reckless raids. IL
Russia encourages revolutionary movements
she cannot tell where they may extend.
1t is a bad year for vOte-buyers and people
who use cipher dispatches. Senator Barnum,
of Connecticut, who goes into the market
whenever in the course of human events 1T
becomes necessary, and orders Legislature
manufactured to his liking regardless Of
expense, distributed his greenbacks again this
year and calmly awaited the result. To his
astOnishment a Legislature is returned not at
all of the pattern he ordered and paid for.
Now to Mr.. BaTnum is put the great Demo
cratic question:" What ale you going to do

THE VOTE BY TOWNS.

Up to the hour of going to press with the first
edition of THE TRIBUNE, returns had been
received from 1877 towns. These towns
gave Republican plurality of a.561 for
Secretary of State in 1877. This year they give
plurality of IG.Oss. little more than double
that of 1877. The Nationals are drawing from the
Democrats in many counties and there is some
reason for believing that this proportional
increase will hold GOOD throughout the State.
IL it does it will make the Republican majority IN
the State outside Of New-York City about $500
A Republican majority of from $4,000 to 2O.OOOm
the State is indicated by these fragmentary returns
The large majority of towns reporting are Repubh'
can. Those reporting arc as follows:

DECEM her 1878,

THE CITY Council by its action last
night, will save in the single item of
lighting the city some seven or eight
thousand dollars year. This is large
saving to be made so easily by the contract
system and publishing for proposals.
The Lamp Committee cerla inly deserve
much credit for their efforts in this drec-
tion, in which they were, we judge from
the letters read last night, greatly assisted
by the Clerk Of the Council, who it APP
peared had, under their di ection perhaps,
conducted most of the correspondence
leading to the action in the matter. 1t
seems to be generally conceded now that
Mr.. Frazer is the most compe' ent and ef-
ticient clerk the council has had for a long

due prominence to Davenport's audacious

dreds of naturalized citizens were fright
ened from the polls by Davenport's
threats and his execution of them to a
sufficient extent to show that he was in

BLAINE's SoPHIsTRY.-TheN New York
Herald, of yesterday, says -
"ln the last Presidential election Mr.
Tilden had a majority of the popular
vote but will Mr.. Blaine carry out bis
reasoning to its logical result and main
tain that majority of the citizens of
the United States were disfranchised be-
cause minority elected Mr.. Hayes? 1t
no more follows that the Southern me-
groes are disfranchised because they ar9
outvoted than that minorites, whose
votes go for nothing, are disfranchised in
the Northern States. Mr.. Blaine's So
phistry Is so transparent that we are
surprised that a man of his astuteness
should have ventured to put il forth"
Another of his fallacies is the assump-
tion that all the Southern negroes nt ctis-
sarily vote on the republican side. They
have a perfect right TO vote with the de-
mocrats if they choose. A constantly in
creasing number of them do so vote, and
will continue to do so. Allowance must
be made for the natural ascendancy of
intelligence, wealth and social standing
over poverty and ignorance. Few men"
wrote old John Adams, "wll deny that
there Is a natural aristocracy of virtues
and talents in every nation and in every
party, in every city and village. Unequal.
tiles are part of the natural history of
man."
Mr.. Blline, in his own State, controls
thousands and thousands ofvoters besides
his own, and Intelligence approaching
his must have a correspondent influence
in the South. 1t Is ridiculous to complain
of this as violation of eq ual rights. 81
remember the time" TO quote John Adj
ans again, "when three gentlemen
Thomas Hancock, Charles Apthorpe and
Thomas Green, the three most opulent
merchants in Boston all honorable, vir.
tuous and humane men-if united, could
have carried any election almost unanii
mously inthe town OF Boston This kind
of fascendancyex'sts IN all republics and it
should naturally be more potent in the
South than in communities where the
average grade Of intellig' nee is higher.
In array ing himself against it Mr.. Blame
is wagng war on the ineradicable prin-
ciples of human nature.
The y. y. Herald, Of to-day, In rcferr-
ing to Blainc's speech, says 1--WE be-
heve that the negroes have abandoned
that party, and tits Is an evidence of
Their Keen perceptions. They have found
that II is not to their interest to CONTINUE
to act with the party that simply made
them go bail for the hordes of thieves,
forgers, pickpockets and scalawags Of
every stripe that were inflicted upon the
South as republican oiiice-holders in the
carpet-bag regime"
The daily gazette., 1878-12-13

to ,chich he belongs-for that is exactly
what the claim amounts to-is an alb
surdity on the face OF II. That negro suf-
frage, however, does exactly what MIR.
Blaine says 1t does-glvc one white man
at the South as much influence as two
white men at he North-is a solemn ard
very serious fac. There were those
among The Republicans of the war per-
iod and Of the period 4 f reconstruction
legislation of Congress who doubted the
expediency and propriety of endowlng
the ignorant blacks of the South with
the full privileges of citizenship,a for
the one reason that inside dozen yea
they would be under cont rol Of the South
ern whites, and that their votes would
he used for the hurt II Republicanism.
Such doubters, however, were energ. IT,
cally denounced by politicians Of the
BlaiLe ripe, and by the newspapers
which found it to heir profit TO endorse
every thing The Blaine stripe Il politi-
clans said and did, as secession sympa-
thiz rs, as enemies of tie blacks, and as
NO better than the wicked Democrats.
AT the best, such people were doctrinaires
and incapable of apprecisting the fine
points Of p actical politics as exemplified
by the performances of the Blaine order
statesmen. But 10, what the practical
men of The Republican party said would
GER ainly come to pass, certainly has has
come to pass and now the cry goes up
thai the Southern r. presentation in Con-
gre must be reduced, in order that the
Republican party may again obtain the
power which has been flched from II, by
the cobb ing up Of the negro vote by the
wicked Southern Democrats. But how
is the thing TO be d, ne ? The Demo-
cratic party now has an ascendeucy In
Congress sufficient 10 prevent any such
legis a. ion as Mr.. Blaine insists is neces-
sary in The next Congress there will be
Democratic MAORI y in both houses of
Congress and there is every prospect
for many years to come, that the men who
gain by the present condition of affairs
Will have the power TO eiiectua ly squelch
a. the beginning any scheme looking
to the reduction of the Southern Con-
gressioDal represent alton, Mr.. Blaine
said yesterday that What are you going
to do about it !? and How do YOU pro-
pose TO help yourselves? !? are the efeo-
yped answers Of defiance which intrench-
ed wrong always gives TO inquiring JUS
tice; and those who imagine 1t TO be con-
elusive do not know the temper of the
American people" which is all very true;
but-what is MIR. Blsine going to do
about it, beyond making vain ululations ?

n Republican Paper on Mr.
Blaine's Speech.

From the Phila. Eve. Telegraph, Dec. 70.
MIR. BLAINE's ARRANGEMENT OF RE-
PuBL1CANIsM.
Mr.. Blalne's speech appears to have ex-
cited the ire of some of his Democratic
colleagues in the Senate; but if Mr.. La
mar aud the rest Of them will forget the
voice and Gestures of the orator, aHd will
carefully and dispassiou ately read the ad-
dress as il is published in the morning
papcrs, they will be able to extract great
oeal Of comfort from it. The Name Sen
a'or intended to make an attack ON the
Democratic party, and especially upon
the southern wing Of it, but, as a matter
OF fact. his speech was bitter arraipn-
m'hl OF the Republican party, and Of the
particular eotere of that party Of which
MI Il aine is an unpleasantly conspicu-
Gus representative. Mr.. Blaine confesses
that the reconstruction policy of the Re
publican party is the deadest kind of a
dead ia lnre; that negro suffrage, instead
of enabling the Republican parry TO re-
tam an overwhelming preponderance in
national politics, has been turned into a
weapon of ofiense to the Republican mar
W; and that the means which were con-
fidently relied upan to keep the Sout bern
Democrats under have enabled them tn
obtain an influence in the conduct of no
tlonal Affairs which does not rightly he
long to them. Mr.. Blaine admitted that
very many of the mea u es that v ere used
by the Southern whites to control the ne
gro votes were beyond the reach of any
existing law or any law that might be en-
acted. As matter of fact, the uout-
RACES" properly so called, have been com
paratlvely few in number, and the ne
groes have often been brought under DO
litical subjection by agencies that it is
impossible to object to on either moral or
legal grounds. For instance, In some OF
the Southern States very large propor-
ton of the negroes are disfranchi by
means OF registry laws ami The enforce
ment of poll-tax-'hat is, laws precisely
similar to those in operation in this State,
and in more than one of the Northern
States, and which are, hereabouts, ac-
counted TO be exceedingly good laws.
The negroes have an aversion to pay.
ing the tax, and as they prefer to lose
their votes rather than pay it, phateuer
gain the Democrats haue by their self
Acknowledgement is as legitimate and
proper as any such gain can be. Mr..
Biaines claim that the negro votes are
rightly o'oned by the clique Of politician.
The daily gazette., 1878-12-13

Mr.. BLAINE's SPEECH seems to have
awakened great opposition in his own
party, Judging from the sarcastic criti-
csms and Remuneration of the New York
Herald, and also another editorial in the
Philadelphia Telegraph, an ably con-
Quoted and very decided Republican pa
per. We invite perusal of these refu-
tations Of the Maine Senator's new de-
parture in politics. They will be re-

of the wrangling strife and malicious po-
litical partizanship and desire to cultivate
and witness season of harmony and
union in the country, under which conf
dence may acquire strength, and trade and
business may once more be restored to
the position the good Of the country and
society demands they should occupy.

Who DREW TIE Colon LiNE.-In
Mr. Ihurmans speech in reply TO Mr..
Blaine, the Ohio Senator did not spare
his opponent. Always precise, he was
especially lorcibe in his allusion to the
"color line" He said
Now, Mr.. President, let me saw one
word more on this subject. Who was il
who drew the color line between the
whites ana the negroes in the South >
Let me tell you, sir, that millions Of
1nohey-oi the money Of the people of
the nlted States-were expended bv
your agents, the Freedman's Bureau
agents, into getting every colored man i'm
the South into loyal leagues and swear
ing h IN never to vote for democrat.
That is whore the color line BEGAN 10 he
drawn. That institution. which took
'iafee ol the negro at the ballot box,
Took charge of him in the cotton field,
took charge Of him everywhere. super
vlsed every contract that he made, al
lowed no contract to be made unless il
had the approval of the agent, of the
treedman's Bureau, and spent the money
and property called captured and aban-
doned property that had been surreu-
dered to l., and many mil ions of money
directly appropriated out Of the Treasl-
ry OF the United States-it was that Bu-
reau and its agents that first drew the
color line. And yet when the white
people Of the South, when the men
owning the property and having the in
telilgence and education of the South
saw their very social system menaced
with destruction; saw their very house
holds threatened with ruin under an in
undation of barbarisn, directed by the
most INSCRIPTIONS of men and when
they naturally came together, when they
naturally united as a people menaced
with danger ever will unite. then cry is
raised against the ''sOlid South" An.
Mr.; President, it will not do. This sys-
TEN Of legislation toward the South that
began ten years ago is reaping / fruit,
ana 1t Is not by additional penal laws
that you can better the condition of This
country.
