Secretary McCrary says "If we do as we'll
everywhere as we did Tuesday the next
House will have @ Republican majority"
Let's see how this thing works. The Repub-
leans went into the election with a majority
of twenty-five to overcome. They lost eight
members. If the Secretary is correct the
Democrats must stop making gains If they
wish to remain In o majority. The proper
thing seems to be to make losses. AS this is
not q good year for Democratic losses, &C
cording to Mr.. McCrary's figuring the
chances for that party to retain control of the
House are not very bright. By the new
theory it would appear that the only way to
succeed is to fail.

The New York Tribune OF Wednesday OBJ
jected to what it termed the flimsy general
denial Of Manton Marble as regarded the
cipher dispatches charged to have been sent
from Florida during the electoral count. Such
an objection will scarcely be urged against
the denial of Mr. Tilden, published this
morning. It Is full, frank and Free and covers
every possible phase Of the charge against
him of negotiating to receive an electoral vote
In Florida or elsewhere. 1t contains, besides,
o clear exposition Of the methods by which a
president who was not elected was in
augurated. It is exceedingly interesting
reading, but 1t Is safe to say that it will not
be appreciated by the beneiiciaries Of the
great fraud.

The outbreak of war in Afghanistan cannot
he long delayed. It is conceded to be newt
able, and the military dispositions already
made leave no hope for peace. The Indian
government has concentrated an army of
$50 men at Peshawur and the Afghans,
equally active, have gathered large force in
the Khvber Pass with which to repel an
attack upon the commanding fortress Of Ali
Musjd, threatened by the Indian forces. So
strong is the Afghan position that the British
are apprehensive of disaster if an attack Is
made with their present force. A British
disaster at the outset of the war would
probably lead to the most serious conse-
uuences. The Hindoos are watching events
with the keenest interest, and a positive
reverse In the Khyber Pass would possibly
lead to revolt in India. With such a contln-
gency looking it in the face the Indian gov
eminent will hardly strike before a decisive
blow is prepared.

Heretofore it has been our CUSTOM In COM
mon with that of other journals OF this city
to publish on the first Of September al an
nual statement Of the commerce of New Or
leans. But when that day rolled around this
year, the ravages of the fever had become
fully developed, business was paralyzed, and
mail comm unication with our friends In the
interior almost entirely stopped by quaran-
tine restrictions Under these adverse cir
cumstances we deemed it expedient to post
pone the publication Of our annual statement
to time when the fever should have sub
sided and mail communication sufficiently
restored to enable us to deliver the DEMO
GRAFT to our numerous subscribers In the
country, as well as to the correspondents OF
our advertising friends and patrons.
We take pleasure in announcing that so
soon as the much longed-for black frost shall
make Its appearance and lower the crest OF
the knight with the yellow plume, we design
publishing long, complete and exhaustive
report Of the commerce OF New Orleans from
September l. 1877, up to date. On that occa-
sion we will issue one Of the largest editions
ever sent forth from @ newspaper office In
New Orleans, and we specially direct the at
tention of our advertising friends to this an
nouncement.
1t Is a we'll known fact that never before
were stocks of produce and merchandise at
the South lin the interior) SO low as at the
present time. When the cause of the inter-
ruption of business is removed there will
necessarily be great demand for goods OF
oil kinds, and Now Orleans will naturally be
the great source of suppIy-the commercial
Mecca to which the country merchants and
planters will bend their steps for the replen-
ishment of their empty stores and exhausted
Iarders.
Then will be the time for our mercantile
friends to avail themselves Of the superior
advantages which the DEMOCRATS annual
statement and it's extraordinarily large edi-
ton will afford to advertise their goods and
present their claims for patronage to pur-
chasers from the country.

A fine British iron ship Of 100 tons register
went ashore near the entrance OF this harbor in
a rock. a hole was stove in her bottom and the

was abandoned by captain and crew and sold
for account of the underwriters in England. A
company Of steamboat owners and mechanics
bought her for less than $1,000. and proceeded to

effective manner. After stopping up al open

monstrates the feasibility and practical eff
cheney OF principle Col Gerard, of this city,
has maintained should be applied to the con-
structi0n of all vessels, and which, he insists,
would secure absolute immunity from sink

should be made air tight as we'll as water
tight Were this done, fire in any part of a
vessel could be extinguished with gases
without disturbing the cargo. So, also, could
water be driven out and leakage stopped with

The Democrats will have majority in
nineteen of the State delegations in the next
Congress That is certain. One more is
necessary to secure an absolute majority OF
all the States. The doubtful ones are Califor-
MIA, Connecticut, Nevada New Hampshire,
New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania
OF these the Democrats have two in the
present Congress Connecticut and New Jer'
sey. California Is divided, and a change Of
one in the New York delegation would place
that State in the Democratic column. It is
evident that If the next President is elected BY
the House he will be Democrat.
