stitution, express the will Of the
people thereof. Any attempt of the
general government to interfere with
elections in the States, or in any of
them, is dangerous to the liberties of
the people and destructive of the
sacredness of elective franchise, and
therefore we condemn as uneonstitu-
tional and subversiye of the freedom
of the ballot box, the odious laws
of Republican origin and adoption by
which Federal supervisors of the cleo
tions and deputy marshals are empow-
cred to interfere with the registration
of voters, and United States troops
are stationed at places to intimidate
or disfranchise citizens, native and
naturalized in unison with their party
brethren throughout the Republic.
The Democrats of California de-
nounce the repeated abuses Of the
veto power by Rutherford B. Hayes,
setting as executive officer of the
government, in defeating the will of
the people as expressed by congress,
in rejecting the bills passed by that
body to repeal obnoxious and uncon-
stitutional laws during the present
session.
The Democrats of California most
earnestly approve the conduct of the
Democrats in both houses of congress
for their firm adherence to just de-
termination in the repeal of laws by
which the rights of voters are inter
fered with at the instance and under
the authority of a Republican admin
istration to the extremity of dividing
the people of suffrage for the purpose
of carrying the elections by force and
fraud.
On the reassembling of the Dem
ocratic convention, the committee on
permanent organization reported in
favor of electing temporary officers for
a permanent report Adopted.
The platform as heretofore tele-
graphed was adopted, and the conyen-
ton adjourned until tomorrow.

whole, anticipations are under the
average. According to Odessa papers
the situations of crops in Southern
Russia and Cauchu have been scarcely
ever as bad as at present.

Some Interesting Figures.

Baltimore Gazette
The action of the boiling Green
back Convention of Ohio, which met
at Toledo on Tuesday, while much to
be regretted by hard money Democrats.
will cause considerable uReasiness in
the Stalwart camp. The convention
declined to nominate Greenback can.
didates, and entertained letter from
old Peter Cooper advising them to
support Ewing. This letter was re-
ceived with great applause, and the
impression is that the bulk of the
Greenback vote will be given to Ew-
ing. This may in turn drive away
some of the hard-money Democrats
from the support of Ewing, and thus
the gains and losses may counterbal-
ance. Still the statistics of the last
two Ohio elections cannot be very
pleasant reading to the Stalwarts Just
now In the Presidential canvass of
1876 Hayes carried Ohio, his own
State, by 2747 votes, the score stand
ing Hayes, 330,698; Tilden, 323, 1872 /;
scattering, 1859. This small majority,
less than 1000, was all that Hayes
could muster as candidate for
President, and in the State of which
he was governor. In the election
Of 1877 the Democratic vote was 27l,-
625, the Republican 249, ,105; Labor
party l2,4S9; Democratic majority
over all 22,520. The election of 1878
showed slight strengthening of the
Republican vote, a Democratic vote
about stationary, and considerable
growth of the Greenbaek party. The
figures are ac follows: Republican
274, ,l20; Democrats, 270,996, and
Greenback 3S,332l The Republican
and Democratic parties have thus APP
peared to be pretty closely balanced,
the GreeObackers making gains from
both. Should the Greenback vote be
solidly given in support of Ewing he
will be elected by heavy majority.
The Stalwart oratory and the bloody
shirt will have but little effect on the
campaign, because both the gentlemen
at the head of the Democratic ticket
were gallant fighters in the Union
army, while the Republican standard
bearer, Mr.. Foster, is comparatively
free from human gore Even John
Sherman must perceive that the situ-
alton looks grave.

GRANT AT CANTON.
Welcomed by Two Hundred Thousand
Washee-Washee.

Grants body guard and correspon-
dent of the New York Herald con-
cludes a letter from Canton, China,
thus
1t was about half-past ten when
we returned to the audience room and
took leave of our hosts. The vieeroy
said he would come down to the Ash
uelOt and see the general off. But the
general said he was to sail at an early
hour, and so said that he would
prefer not putting his excellency
to so great trouble. Then the vice
roy said it was custom in China to
send some memento of friendship to
friends; that he was sorry he could
not, without a violation of Chinese
etiquette, entertain Mrs. Grant,
and he would like to send her
a specimen of Cantonese work which
might serve to remind her of
Canton when she came to her
own home beyond the seas. The
yicerOy also spoke of the pleasure and
the honor he had felt in receiving
General Grant, and his welcome in
China, would be repeated throughout
China. In taking leave, the viceroy
asked the general to be kind to his
people in the United States for
you have" he said, "a hun

you, and they are good people,
Then We entered our chairs,
and amid the firing of guns, music,
the cries Of attendants and the waving
of lanterns we returned. The journey
home through the night was weird
and strange. The party was preceded
by torchbearers, and every chair car
ried lanterns. AT regular points on
the route were attendants holding
torches and lanterns. The streets
swung with lanterns, and the effect, the
light, the narrow streets the variety of
decoration, the blended and varying
colors, the doors massed with people,
the dense and silent throng through
which we passed, their yellow features
