the use and benefit OF tho United States,
This penalty is laughed at by these rich cor
porations with net income Of seven or
eight millions year each They could af-
ford to pay il q hundred times over, and
make money 10y the operation Litigation
is to them Il source Of profit. because, while
it goes on, they are protected against the
ministerial process Of the law, aud can de-
wise means for conccaling their enormous
gains.
This resistance TO the law, however. justi-
ncs the belief that the accounts of these
companies have been systematically cooked
for years. and that under the head Of re-
pairs and expenses, and other vague gem
cralitic- deception ha, boon practised on the
Treasury and on the public. II there was
nothing to hide, and the hooks were hon
cstly kept why oppose and defy the cxccu-
ton Of an act which is I'm every way fair,
and only applies the ordinary tests to
public trust?
When {, Is remembered that these monOp-
ol7ts have bought Government inspectors
and directors to make false reports, and
brihed other agents to sub-crvc their inter-
csts. and sought at the last session to pur-
chase legislation In their favor, or, alter
nativcly, to pay largely for preventing adj
verse legislation, IL is easy to understand
their present course. Mr. JAMES +. WILSON
OF Iowa was a Government director for SOW
eral years, and in that capacity was one OF
the Credit MOblicr patriots who served
himself and OAKEs AMEs. While holding
this trust he rcccntlyacccptcd fee Of many
thousands from the Union Pacific, without
considering IL any compromise of his lidu-
ciary obligation to the Government. And
this Is one of the mild examples Of the
means employed by GOULD and his confed-
crates to win over public agents appointed
to watch and TO countcract their practices
As the law now stands, IL is powcrlcss for
good. Though clear and emphatic, the cor
poratons would fight 1t continuously in the
courts, under every possible prctcxt and
tcchnicality, knowing that If carried up to
Washington it could not be heard on tho
calendar inside Of three years. Every day
Of delay would DO gain TO them and an
embarrassment TO tho Treasury. The Audi
tor, accountants, and bookkccpcrs would be
useless charge, If the duties assigned To
them cannot bc performed A remedy for
this defect is, therefore, Indispensable, and
it will be probably found at the next scs-
sion in n penal statute that will give
GOULD STANFORD, and the whole combina-
ton realizing sense of the power OF Con-
grcss when rightmlly exercised.

The General Elections To-Day.

Elections OF rare Importance occur to-day
In thirty-Onc States. The whole country
will take an especial interest In all Of them,
for every State chooses it, members Of the
next House OF Representatives The num-
ber 10 be elected is two hundred and forty
which Is about four-nfths Of the entire
House.
Tho results will determine the political
complexion Of the new House They will do
more than this. They will settle the ques-
ton whether the National-Greenback-La
party Is able to cast an aggregate vote for
4 '...rcssmcn large enough 20 make it n fac
tor worthy NJ much consideration in the
next Presidential contest
The returns on tho Congress- elections will,
therefore, bc watched with keen interest, for
they may exert great deal Of influence in
deciding which Of the two old parties is the
most likely u succeed in carrying its Prcs-
Dental candidate in 1850, or whether the
third party may be powerful enough to
throw the election Of the President into the
House Of Representatives, which il now TO
b. chosen.
Some Of the States %ill elect Legislatures
that are 20 choose senators in Congress in
January next. Tho three States around
which cluster special sollcitude are
Connecticut, New York, and Pcnnsyl-
yania. The Senatorial terms Of VIII
LIAM H. BARNUM, ROsCOE CONKLING. and
JAMES DONALD CAMERON terminate in
March. Their SUCCESSORS will bc chosen in
January. To-day will decide whether they
are to remain m the senate for another
term. or the one or the other or nll, be-
compelled to give mp their seats. The re-
cult Of this sharp contest. and particularly
In the ease Of Mr.. CoNKLISG, will be con
1emplated with peculiar feelings.
Seven or eight States are to elect their
Governors. Some elect other important
state officers. The only contest in which
.hc people generally tao much concern is
the struggle Of Gen. BENJAMIN L. BUTLUR
FOR the Governorship of Massachusetts,. He
has fought u gallant baltic against desper-
ate odds, and If he succeeds it will bc a
marvellous achievement, and in it, ulti-
mate consequences may have an important

Ao-Duy y DHy VI N'ioIl OF OF NnHmc.
The sun which rises upon New York this
morning will set upon the city's glory or
Its shame.
The question TO be passed upon At the
polls to-day is whether the one man power
shall be sustained, enlarged, and substan-
tiated whether the City shall Ice ruled by a
tcspot, or whether tho will OF the majority.
freely expressed at every election, shall pre-
vail.
1t seems strange that at this late day tho
question should he seriously propoundcd
whether we shall have virtual King or
not But the issue has been made perfectly
distinct, ON both sides. The Dictator HIM
self has openly boosted, at public meet
Ing, that he is n good Dictator. The ablcst
man who has spoken on the Tammany side
in q carefully considered, elaborate argu-
ment, advocated the one man rule and
gloried in it. Scholars and politicians have
often been the advocates Of despotism
On the other hand, the independent Jour
mails that have supported the Combination
Ticket have uniformly based their argu-
mcnts on the necessity Of checking and over
throwing the ono man power
II the rights Of the people, the equal
rights Of all, prevail at the election to-day,
then this day will be as glorious as any In
the history Of tho city; II they fail, the
city will be covered with the deepest shame.

DO Not Trade Votes.

Great Efforts will be made by the Tam
many managers 10 trade of votes for one
candidate for votes for another candidate.
Be SURF that whcRcc0' mir il proposed ia
because AFTER cdrcfW calculation Il has been
dct0miacd Hd the interest Of 9iuaHdy uiS
b. promoted by such az exchange. Therefore,
if the exchange is made, it will result in
detrimcnt to the cause of the people.
Every man who is opposed to the ono
man power should vote against every Tam
many candidate, without exception. The
election Of one means the same thing as the
election OF another: IL gives countcnance
and aid TO the Tammany dcspotism
Remember that il Mr.. KELLY is willing to
trade OF two votes for one local candidate
for one vote in favor Of AUGUSTUS ScnELL,
IL is because he attaches supreme import
ance to the election Of his candidate for
Mayor.
There Is only one safe way, and that Is to
vote the whole Combination Ticket.
Vote against the King and Clown, ami all
the tribe!
