POISONED by CANNED VEGETABLES.
-Four Of the crew of the fishing sloop
Laconic, commanded by Captain Frank
lin A. Smith, while at Coney Island, after
eating heartily of canned beans and corn,
cooked together, on the 26th ultimo, were
suddenly seized with violent cramps and
severe vomiting, which rendered them
completely unfit for duty. Captain Smith
without delay procured the services of a
doctor ct the island, who after hearing
the statements of the men, pronounced it
case of poisoning from eating canned
corn and beans. He Immediately pre-
scribed the proper remedies, and advised
that if the men grew no better they should
be removed to their homes. On the Sec
ond day after the corn was eaten another
of the crew was attacked in a similar
manner, and Captain Smith, not being
able to take the sick men to their homes
on his own vessel, chartered the small
sloop N. E. Sinclair, and after having the
men placed carefully in the cabin, and
providing them with mattresses and pill
lows, brought them to Brookhaven, vii
lage little south of Yaphank, Long Is
land, being about twenty miles east of
Fire Island, where they reside. Immedi-
ately on arriving DR.. Baker, a prominent
physician of this place, was called in, and
pronounced the condition of two of the
crew extremely critical.
In an interview with your correspond
ent this afternoon the Captain stated that
he started with his vessel from Yaphank
last Monday, stopping first at Sayville,
L. l., to purchase his stores, which we're
obtained from Mr.. Perry, one of the own
ers. Among the stores were three cans
of corn. He also said that he had been
inIthe habit of purchasing his stores there
weekly; that he had frequently bought
canned articles and never heard any COM
plant in regard to their being poisonous,
nor has any of his men ever been attack
cd before. The doctor to-day says the
condition of the two men remains un-
changed and their chances of recovery
are doubtful.
The affair is the common talk among
fishermen as we'll as among others in the
vicinity of Brookhaven, and is creating
great excitement among persons who are
accustomed to using canned articles

afternoon. Upon taking leave of him I
asked him directly what he thought of
the situation, and he replied promptly
and earnestly, that he was very we'll sat
isfed, as all has been done which the
party set out to do, and the dangers
which threatened its welfare have been
wisely and safely averted. 1t may not be
amiss to state in this connection that a
large share of the credit due for this sue
cess is generally accorded to Senator
Hampton himself, as his wise counsels
and restraining influence have been felt
in every move that has been made since
he took his seat. Senator Bayard took
occasion yesterday to thank him earnest
ly for his efforts, and said, in substance,
that what has been accomplished of
good would not have been accomplished
without his aid,

Of the general RESULTS Of the session
it is not necessary that should say very
much. To this may be added that the
Democratic members of Congress are all
we'll pleased with what has been accom-

be in view of the formidable opposition
which they encountered at every step of

SENATOR BUTLER.

In the interview with Senator Butler,
which was recently published in the Meps
and Courier, he pointed out very clear
ly the important advantage that had
been gained by the Democrats in the
single matter of securing the organiza-
ton of the present House, and the
opinion he then expressed, that this one
point alone justified the call Of the extra
session, Is now shared by all who have
looked into the matter. Still another i'm
portant consideration that is insisted
upon is the manifest good that has been
effected by the long continued and gen.
eraT discussion of the

A RADICAL CONSPIRACY.

The Post, published here, declares,
this morning, that it has reason to believe
that the marshals all over the country
have been instructed TO make as much
trouble as they can, and impede the ac-
ton of the courts as far as they can, for
the purpose Of furnishing plausible ex-
cuse for an extra session and of supply
ing the Radicals with campaign mate
rial. 1t also states that, in accordance
with this scheme, Marshal Fitzsimmons,
of Georgia, (the only Democratic mar
shall in the country, will be removed, as
being in the way of successful prosecu-
ton of this scheme. How much of all
this is true I cannot tell, and perhaps
the Post alone knows. The removal Of
Fitzsimmons would lend strong confr-
nation to the theory.

VITAL PRINCIPLES

of our Government which has been
forced by the Democrats in Congress, and
which has been kept up in the press of
the country, all to the enlightenment and
information of the people who have
heard nothing of the kind before for
nearly twenty years, and who were in
danger of losing sight of them altogeth-
er. Perhaps, however, the best evidence
of the good that has been done, and of
the success that has been achieved by
the Democracy, is to be found in the va
rying and conflicting statements Of the
Radical press. Such papers as the New
York Times, Chicago Inter Ocean and
Washington National Republican, for ia
stance, appear to have no common ground
to stand upon, and no one of them occu-
pies exactly the same position for two
days in succession. They are evidently
undecided as yet whether to maintain
that the Democrats have accomplished
all they set out to accomplish, and so
keep up the cry of
CONFEDERATE" ENcRoAcHMENTs
in the revised Statutes, on the one hand
or to make light of the extra session as
useless, and twit their antagonists with
utter failure at every point, on the other.
They are rather inclined to the first view,
however, and will doubtless adopt it
unanimously before many days.

ABSEN lEEloM.
1t is not so we'll known as it should be
that Congress, for weeks during the ex-
ira session, was reduced to bare work.
ing quorum by the absence of members
who preferred to spend their time in pur-
suit of pleasure, or to attend to private
business at the public expense. 1t is
just possible, too, that very many of the
honorable truants desired to avoid the
trying call for yeas and nays upon the
delicate if momentous issues considered
and decided within the past few months.
Had all the Democrats been present who
ought to have been present through
out so important session much delay
and trouble would have been avoided,
and the session it would have been prob
ably and materially shortened. Such de-
sertion at such time should not be ignor-
ed and should be remembered against
next election day.
1t is matter for proper pride with
every South Carolinian that our entire
delegation remained at their posts, and
did their whole duty like honest and fear
less men throughout the whole trying
term.
The distressing circumstances under
which Governor Hampton came to the
front at the critical hour are well known
to most of our people, but it remains for
me to say in his behalf, what would not
be known otherwise, that he has remain
ed here and attended nearly every days
proceedings as positive sacrifice of his

From the St. Paul Globe.

From the St. Paul Globe.
The Minneapolis morning paper,
which is printed in St.. Paul, bolts the
nomination of Charley Gilman for
Lieutenant Governor, while it cordially
supports Pillsbury and the remainder
Of the gang. The Globe has no SYM
pathy to waste on Gilman. He has
chosen to fight his battles inside of the
Republican ranks and must expect to
receive the virulent abuse of his party
organ. All of this can be easily ac>
counted for. Gilman is fighting a
gang which is the worst ring in the
State: 1t double discounts any ring
of st. Paul or Minneapolis, and Gill
man is the only man in his own party
with pluck enough to fight them. Of
course he must be punished for such
temerity, and the organ ofall the rings
aud all the rascalities for which Mn
nesota is noted bolts his nomination.
This is really the highest compliment
which could be paid to Gilman. We
had been inclined to- believe that Gil
man was a pretty bad case, but Joe
Wheelock's bolt will be the making of
the man. When a notorious corrup>
ZIONIST like Wheelock denounces a
man, the people are inclined to think
there is something angelic about the
person abused. Gilman can be thank
full for abuse from such a source. =

The Democratic State Ticket.

This fall the Republican party of this
State is torn asunder by violent conten.
tions for office, and presents q weaker
front than ever before. If the two lead
ing political parties were ordinarily any
thing like equal in strength, the victory
of the Democratic ticket in tho pending
campaign would be certain. As it is,
the ordinary Republican majority of 2O,>
900 is so great that the election of the
Democratic candidates is not certain, nor
even probable. But we do not regard
the situation as being of such character
as to render a Democratic victory utterly
impossible. In the first place the DEM
ocrats must refuse to enter into any com>
promises, but must firmly adhere to the
established principles and, issues of the
present time, and adopt platform and
nominate ticket accordingly, The tick
ct must be made up, not of place hunters
who resort to intrigue and barter to se-
cure their own nominations, but of men
who stand squarely on the platform, are
highly esteemed by the people. possess the
most unquestlonable integrity, and con-
sent to be candidates for the public good,
and not for the purpose of filing their
own pockets and paving the way to still
greater promotion. And then, after such
a platform and ticket have been put be-
fore the people, let speakers take the field
to explain the situation. AS astonishing
as it may seem, there are thousands of
voters in this State who honestly and
sincerely believe that the Democratic par
ty is in favor of paying the rebel war
debt, endorsing secession doctrine, op>
posing measures for the benefit of Union
soldiers, and general cussedness and
these voters continue supporting the most
corrupt political party that ever existed
on this planet merely because they are
pleased with the war record Of the party
that bore that name fifteen years ago
In Ohio the Democrats nominated two
Union Generals, one Of whom lost leg
on the battle field, for the two high
est State Offices, while the Republicans
nominated a man for Governor who
stayed at home during the war and spec>
ulated on the necessities Of soldiers fam
lilies. And throughout the United States
the same rule prevails that is, majors
ty of the leaders of the Republican party
at the present day are men who managed
to escape the performance of any military
service during the war, and whose SYM
pathy for the noble men at the front was
not strong enough to show itself in out
