LOCAL POLITICAL DOTS.

Capt. Gallagher counts confidently on
getting strong support from the down
town Democratic vote on next Tuesday.
He also feels certain of being elected
Mayor hy 800 majority. In both of these
expectations he will be disappointed.
The yellow fever scare has proved a
God-send to the Republican party of this
city. Coming as it did just previous to
the election, IL gave them the shadow OF
an excuse 10 put large numbers of men
to work "cleaning the streets"
Dr Marshall claims to be the only man
in Delaware who voted for Peter Cooper
in 1876. Martin Farrell disputes this
claim With him.
A post-otfice employee saws he is n
greenbacker at heart, and that the prin-
iples of bath the old parties are simply
the "loavrs and tishes.' He adds, how
ever, that he is perfectly satisfied with
these ''principles," or at least his portion
of them.
VIM. a. Murphy, the Greenback
Labor candidate for Mayor, was Dem
ocra ic member of Council from the
Firth Ward, during portion OF 1876.
lie was elected te fill a vacancy caused
by the removal of VIM. Candy from the
Ward. He was candidate for re-eec-
ton, but was defeated, the Ward beng
strongly Republican.
Edltor Hersey, OF the Republican, grin
ned painfully and sighed profoundly
when Informed of Republc can Council
mans little escapade among the 'liquor
saloons of the First Ward, ON Tuesday
| night. 1t makes all the difference in the
world whose OK is gored, you know. II
1t had been a Democratic Councilman,
| why then--
A few of the Greenback-Labor men
talked of Robert G. Fraim, Esq, as their
candidate for Mayor, last night, but Mr.
Fraim couldn't see it.

The Yellow Fever,

Dispatches from New Orleans report
that the health authorities there are of
opinion that the epidemic has not yet
reached its climax, and that, consequent
tly, it will go on gaining force for yet
some days to come. In former bad years,
epidemics have begun TO lose force from
about the 22d of August-that day show
Ing in the worst year they ever had AZ
New Orleans the highest number of
deaths. That it should be later in year
when the changes of the seasons are
somewhat advanced from their usual date
is an anomaly due, doubtless, to the re-
cent occurrence of extremely unfavor-
able weather. From the moment when
this accidental cause ceases to act the
number of deaths will drop very sudden
ly. But the event that is, perhaps, of
more immediate interest in New Orleans
than even the hoped for end of the
epidemic is the successful treatment of o
bad case by cold water spray, reportedin
another column. The cure by that method
OF man said 10 be moribund. Many
physicians at New Orleans, Grenada and
Memphis seem to have been of opinion
this year that large number of cases of
the fever they saw were not typical cases
of yellow fever, but rather virulent cases
of typhus er even palludal fever of severe
forms. The cure by the cold spray or
douche will, perhaps, rather tend to con-
firm these opinions than to convince the
old practitioners of that part of the world
that yellow fever is amenable to this
treatment.

THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN
ASSURANCES OF VICTORY IN NOVEMBER
THE COMMITTEES WORK.

THE COMMITTEES WORK.
A correspondent at Washington says
'The Democratic Congressional Com
mlttee was in session several hours to-
day, discussing matters relating to the
coming campaign. The members say they
have assurances from various sections of
the country that great victory awaits
the Democracy in November. The can
vass in Mississippi has been suspended
on account of the yellow fever. Letters
from that State say that if the fever con-
tinues until the lst of November, as it
probably will, there will be no canvass
ing except III the western portion of the
State. The committee has decided To
press with vigor the issues now promi-
nent before the people. 1t has already al
work large force getting out campaign
documents. Among these is pamphlet
by Mr.. blackburn III answer to Senator
Windom's interview on Democratic
economy"

because of the seeming popularity of Grant

'WHEN THE sky falls you will catch
larks," said Democratic friend of Mr.
Murphy, on hearing that he was nominal.
ed for Mayor by the Gallagher men, last
night. We shall now see what fools somt
people have made of themselves. I'll,
'greenback party" is very poor thing to
let itself be used by such as are infuenc
ed by Mr.. Gallagher.
The daily gazette., 1878-08-29

GALLAGHER is in his glory. His men
on the streets enjoy their smoke and from
all his actions they infer that he expects
their votes on election day. These men
forget that this wasteful course will pile
debt and taxation upon their children.

was attended by an audience large in num-

elaborately dressed, and with its tim

credit is due to the committee under

The Christmas Eve celebration of the

success, and the taste and energy dis

The services of the occasion consisted OF Il
choral service by the children, followed by
